*383 - birthday dinner #2


Chilli crab with the family on Sunday! (: It's funny how I announced to Shib that I just had chilli crab, and she announced "me too", and told me that it cost her about $100 for 1 crab, 2 mantous, a plate of something (veggies?) and tea, and then I told her that it cost us about $120 for 2 giant crabs, 12 mantous, a plate of veggies, a plate of tofu, 10 chicken wings, an enormous plate of hokkien noodles, and 4 cups of lime juice.

But not all's bad, because that lead us to deciding to go for crab at my place one day with Maddy, and when I told Maddy about it she immediately said "oh, at Wah Hoe?" because she goes there for crab too. It's great by the way, at Casuarina, the corner shop along the row containing the famous prata place - just try to get there early (like, 6 pm) or you'll have to wait forever for a table.


And look what Mummy/Daddy gave me! Yes, Mum painted that for me (: Sweet, isn't it?

I was just thinking about my teensy wardrobe and I realised that I don't own a single long sleeved top! Blame it on the Singapore weather, and my figure. Heh. I need to find a way to wear long sleeved tops without looking more like a wrapped dumpling than I already do! I just don't think long sleeved tops are meant for people with broad shoulders and flabby arms like me. What to do?

This GSS will be spent buying Ithaca-suitable clothes: more sweaters, hoodies, long pants, and (gasp) long sleeved tops.

Thanking God that I actually managed to find another Singaporean Hotelie who's going in as a freshie together with me! Really super duper exciting. (:

About 2 1/2 months before I leave. Wow. I think it's going to be great. (:
