Thursday the 23rd Feb
Today I wore a V-neck spagheetti top (bought from Bangkok 2 years ago) that dips to a not-so-offensive (IMO) position of my chest. Then I wore the Perlini necklace I bought on the night I sobbed uncontrollably. In the office, someone (a man) in the office asked me where am I going, wearing so nice. My natural reaction was "Aiyah, must need to go somewhere then can wear nicely meh?" Then he replied, aiyah, that is another way of saying you look nice in that lah. Then he went on to tell another guy what can they do to make sure people like us don't take words literally. Something to that effect.
I am like... Hmm.. okaaaeeeyyy... Something for me to think about, not to take words literally. Hey, it's a compliment, I shouldn't be complaining :) But it's just me lor. Like what I wrote earlier, when people pay me compliments, I don't know how to react one. I will just sheepishly defend myself and say no lah, I am not as great as what you think I am. I shall learn to accept compliments gracefully. Any tips?

Finally, I got a chance to eat at the new food court (called Food Republic, I think) at Wisma. L. and I just came out of Comcentre (went to fix a MMS problem in my Bandung) and dunno what to eat. After using the toilet at Centrepoint, I exclaimed "This is the best time to go there!" Well because there will be lesser people compared to weekends, where I'll never be able to have a chance to eat there.
So off we went. Upon reaching, the original intention was to eat the famous Fried Hokkien Mee. I gamingly joined the queue, seeing that the queue is long, I gamingly did a calculation of the number of people queuing. 20 people before me! Decided to give a shot and wait. After 5 mins, my stomach protest, and I settled for chicken rice instead. $4.30 for chicken thigh rice.
What a ripped-off. Miserable, too salty. (The chicken rice at the Tiong Bahru Market taste so much better than this and it's only $2.80!) After the rice, still feeling abit unsatisfied, I walked around to look for food but didn't find any I like. Went to queue for beverage, couldn't decide between coffee, Milo Bing or Ginger Tea. "Xiao Jie, what drink for you?" Since my eye stopped at Ginger tea, I ordered it. $1.20 for a packet of instant Ginger Tea in hot water! Well, at least the Ginger taste is strong.
What a night.
Alamak, 1.26am liao...
