sore eyed sunday


Sunday started out with major tiredness, bad sinus and really swollen eyes that required extra effort to keep my eye open. Had to drag myself to tuition and got my daddy to drive me instead. Not in the mood to be driving :((


Finally endured 2h tuition session where I was trying my best to avoid eye contact with everyone but my tutee is a cray cray and super kpo girl so she kept looking at me in the eye. If this eye problem is contagious hmmm... then she's in trouble.

In any case, the boy came to pick me up and we went to study today.
It's impossible to have frivolous shopping dates when he has lots of quiz and I have tons of readings unread.
And to satisfy my week-long sashimi craving, we went to get a fat slab of salmon to eat-
Just for me.! Bcos the boy doesn't know how to appreciate the freshness of raw fish.
No pictures available as I was busy gobbling them all down. Hee!
Wanted to hang out at the cafes but all these sec school kids are such hoggers, 
we couldn't get any seats at all.


So we had no choice but to head to the nearest place we could find.
Tata~
He is such a gobbler too!
Finished the entire chicken burger in like 4min.
Monster!


Ended the day with dinner at his place. 
Home-cooked food is XOXOXO
Plus we don't have to wrack our heads to decide what to have for dinner.

For now, I'm gg to rest my damn-poor-thing eyes :(

backview couple shot today bcos my eye looks SCARY and 
to not aggravate it I didn't have any makeup on lest it makes things worse

study/movie/dinner date

Yay! That marks the end of my second paper. Just one more to go! Had lunch with the bulk of the classmates @soup spoon because the Q at Tim Ho Wan was too INSANE! And while everyone else went home to relax or some sort, I was gg to start mugging all over again :( But I guess that's the only thing you can do with a bf who's busy with upcoming exams too. Well, surely study date is another kind of dating too. #optimistic 

But at least I didn't have to wake up early to 'chope' place at the national library. All I had to do was walk in and TADAH! iIhad a seat all ready for me. Slightly inconsiderate but I guess it's kind of a Singapore culture. Waking up early> 'chope' seat> hog for hours. Plus the weather is so incredibly hot, mugging in an air-con-ed place is a MUST. And I must say national library's study lounge at level 5 is SO SO nice. There's a nice view, food and drinks are allowed is so thoughtful plus there had vending machines for both food and drinks in the room itself. There's even recycling bins inside which I think is pretty clever. You know how when people are studying they jot things down on rough paper that they will eventually discard. Now they have just the right place to dump them, and play a part in being environmentally all at once! Good move.

Well, studying becomes a lot more efficient when you know there are perks at the end of it. Had a good dinner at Carly T's, ultilising the Groupon deal that le boy bought for us. It's quite a deal really- $8 for $20 worth of food & drinks. The service crew was friendly and smiley, even explaining some of the dishes and what they are. You know how at times western dishes like to have a lot of fanciful names which you can barely make out of. Ordered a burger that came with corn chips as sides and a quarter chicken with 2 sides- mac&cheese and butter garlic rice. Well, I must say mac & cheese from Kenny Roger beats hands down, no others can dispute that fact. I would recommend that if you ever eat at Carly's, avoid mac and cheese, but the garlic rice is not so bad, could be a little more flavour though. The burger tasted LIKE pizza. 100%. Good thing if you love pizza, if not then do give it a miss. But their speciality was the chicken and i tell you it's a MUST-TRY! The meat was so tender and juicy, with its skin crisps. I would certainly go back again just for the chicken! A little advice- the food portion is a little small (even for me).


 And perk no. 2- movie! Caught Oblivion starring Tom Cruise. He's unbelievable hot despite his age i must say. It's an interesting sci-fi movie, effects and actions were good. But the ending is abit of a ...



the cutleries are so cute
