Yesterday, SQuad (minus Jen, she just so happens to have St.John) went starbucking at Holland Village. haha, believe it or not, my first time there! =) Well, I ordered Ice caffe mocha for $5.30. Although it is expensive, I kind of enjoy it. It's not often that I give myself such a yummy treat!
We had a good catch up after not meeting/seeing each other for months. Especially Han. She caused a stir in RV after she appeared everywhere, from 4G to 4L to the canteen. You can just see eyes following her around, perhaps shocked by her daringness in her dressing and still able to walk and talk freely in RV's compound.
Well, back to the topic of Starbucks, their service at the Holland Village outlet is terrible. Tables are not wiped and cleared after customers left their seats. It's only like after 30-45 minutes that a female worker came clearing things up. And she even casually and convieniently "missed" our table if Han didn't tell her to clear what the previous customers have left on our table. That became true when our table (the one fu er is sharing with me. You see, we had 2 round tables joint together for more space as there are 4 of us) which was beside Han's table was missed again. That pissed us off man. We promised not to go there again. NEVER.
While Ahma and the rest went to
Beads@Work at Holland Village, I accompanied Han to have her Katong Laksa at the street just opposite the shop. For $3, the noodles barely even filled up half of the bowl la. AND, they don't even provide chopsticks. My first time seeing a stall not having chopsticks when they are selling noodles. We talked about everything under the sun, from her dad, parents, to Beijing, to her school. Topics just flowed. It brought back memories of our days with each other in RV.
Took 198 back. I think my lost experience with the bus caused me to be a little "bus" sick cause the journey is soooo damn long. Couldn't imagine how Han feels everyday. On top of that, the glaring sunlight didn't help much either. haha.. but we still continued our chat about her going to US during the June holidays, her experience in Disneyland during her childhood... =) So fun, especially the theme parks and their rides.
We are meeting up on Sunday at Ahma's house for cooking/baking. =) Another fun day I suppose.
