My saturday adventures on Sunday's news

I spent Saturday in town today and i had lots of fun and at the end of it i was drained mentally physically yet now at half past twelve in the morning on a Sunday morning i am facing my computer screen very alert - which is so typically me ..... (and now its 1024pm pm on a Sunday night lol cos i wrote half way then got tired..)

Anyways we caught a movie and had lunch at Thai Express and boy was our mouths burning after that. I was hoping for just a regular lunch but my aunt was in the mood for Thai food so we ended up going there seeing that it was on the way. We had like a special friend tofu with special sauce - the fried tofu was topped with tiny chillie flakes and ground peanuts. We also had rolled prawn fritters (its shrimp rolled in a thin flour pastry & deep fried) it was served with a Thai sweet spicy sauce ... .. We also had Pad Thai with sea food. This is basically vermicelli fried with scallions, onions,eggs, chillies (yes its a big thing in most Asian cuisines), with shrimp fish and chicken and on the side its the chillie flakes and ground peanuts . The way to eat it is to mix it all together - its was soooooooo goodddddddd but sooo spicy...

We did a whole lot of walking which was good so i could walk some of the food off - i made a deal to lose 30 pounds by my birthday in march so walking is a good start ;)) ... anyways we watched a movie today and seriously if there was movie that would make you laugh cry go awwww or get your hopes up in gear again this season id strongly recommended The Holiday starring Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet - its a chick flick yeah but its a great movie. Good one to watch with girlfriends - its a feel good movie - gives you hope in love in life and at times in people. I could very well relate to so many parts of the movie & i am pretty sure anyone watching the movie would feel a connection to the characters potrayed. It was about being in love with someone who wasnt in love with you back (come on ladies how many of us have had this) well im pretty sure some guys have been in the situation too. She loved the guy so much that she was willing to do anything to make him happy even though he seem to be into other women , - the whole movie is about losing love finding love and all the little things that come with it. So again you girls should really go catch this movie.. Let me warn you it will make you shed a tear or two or three Lord knows i did heehee... Be prepared to get all warm and fuzzy and have your faith in love and hope renewed ........

The movie was emotionally draining for sure - maybe i was just at that phase or i was really taking it all in cos after the movie as much as a talker i was i didnt talk as much and all i wanted to do was go home lol then again i think the crowd was starting to flood into the shopping mall .. anyways ... we walked back to City Hall and i took some pictures which i posted as slides in an earlier entry .. I especially like the pink christmas tree adorned with Swarovski crystals. They were having a showcase of jewellery and accessories made with or encrusted with the crystals - talk about bling bling and that sure was it ...

It was a Saturday - its only natural that the place was going to be packed i mean where else can Singaporeans go other than shopping .. next week i think i am going to check out what all the hype is about at Vivo City ... till then that was my Saturday hope everyone else had a good one too ..
