Yes, steamed dumplings for dinner again. Met up with Jim and his 2 sisters for dinner at Din Tai Fong after I bought 2 sets of Sony Ericsson K750i in SILVER colour. Those handphones are for Kenny and Jo Yee because they couldn’t get silver colour in KL, and it’s also freaking tough to get K750i in silver colour in Singapore. The sales guy told me that they do not stock silver colour due to low demand.

I went back to the shop where I got the handphones from, Jim wanted to re-new his plan, and get a new handphone. He signed up 2 years plan and trade in his K700i at $180, he paid $288 to get K750i and happily walked out from the shop. $288 for K750i, it’s a good deal!

Jim was very impressed with the sound and camera quality of K750i, now only he understood how excited I was when I got my K750i 5 months ago.

It’s my birthday!

Yes, today is my 18th 28th birthday. I received calls and sms from friends in Malaysia, Singapore and US since yesterday. Thank you guys, but it would be great if you guys buy me some beer. OK, call me a greedy drunkard.

Andy message me on MSN messenger, “What do you want to have for lunch today?”
I replied, “Chicken rice.”
Andy, “OK.”

8 of us went to a very famous boneless chicken rice shop at Changi Village for lunch. The chicken rice was so damn fantastic that Andy, Lawrence and I nearly fell asleep in the car when we were on the way back to office. Anyways thank you guys for the treat today.

I still have another appointment with Jim, Jeff and Yam. This time I treated them to dinner at Crystal Jade Restaurant. Don’t know why, we had a craving for steamed dumplings recently, maybe it’s because of rainy days, it feels good to have steamed dumplings in rainy day, this feeling can only be described in one word - “mantap!”. Alright, it’s photo session now, let’s check it out.

What’s next after dinner? No plan, just go home because we have to work tomorrow. Argghhh, I miss my college days. Jim and Jeff disappeared when we were on the way to Orchard MRT station, Yam told me that they were buying something, so we just wait. 10 minutes later, these 2 fellows appeared with a birthday cake in a plastic bag. Damn… it was totally out of my expectation, I thought they were gonna get me some beer. Anyway, thank you for the birthday cake!

So we went home, we sang birthday song together, made a wish, took some photos, cut the tiramisu cake, ate the cake, couldn’t finish it, put it in the fridge. Oh yeah, wonder what wish did I make? 2 words - “World Peace”, you may call me a lamer, though it will not happen, but this is the wish I have made.

Woke up at 11.30 am, lazed a bit, took a shower, went to have lunch at kopitiam with my housemate Jim, came home, lazed away the afternoon.

5pm. Jim suggested take dinner at 鼎泰丰 Din Tai Feng at Bishan Junction 8, sounds good.

6.05pm. Reached there, there’s a short queue but no worries, a friendly waitress got us a table since only 2 of us.

6.10pm. I ordered a bowl of pork chop noodle, Jim ordered 炸酱面. Of course, we would not miss out their most famous steamed dumplings 小笼包, damn… I am feeling hungry now.

As usual, I took out my handphone and took some pictures while waiting for food.

Obviously, these 2 guys were trying to act cool. It’s okay, we are very good at it, we love it.

Had dinner with soon-to-be-ex-colleague Mr. Andy Loh aka Ah Guang aka Guang Ge (Brother Guang).

While waiting for our clay-pot bah kut teh + salty vegetable + eew-char-kueh + 2 bowls of yam rice, I took out my K750i and mischievously took a photo of him. Take a look at his picture, oh my gawd, he is soooooo damn cute, isn’t he?

But on second thought, he looks like someone. Hmmm…… holy bloody moly, check out the picture below.

Don’t get me wrong, he is a very smart guy, even though he looks like Mr. Bean. I admire him for who he is, Ah Guang, you the MAN! By the way, just to remind you, please transfer $22 to my POSB savings account, thank you for your co-operation. Oh yeah, he bought a new toy from Bangkok, a so-called lucky toy, looks good.
