A Singaporean girl who graduated from a Medical College in the UK and currently working as a doctor, spending most of my years abroad burying myself amongst medical books, speaking Queen's English and trying to adapt to life in Britain. But I still remain a true blue Singaporean who loves my plate of char kway teow and enjoys the sense of closeness when speaking "Singlish" to my fellow countrymen. Why "The Chinese Doctor"? Because that's what my patients call me since they don't know my name!

First time at Gelare Cafe

Living so near to 2 Gelare Cafes and never been into one.....can I say I'm suaku?

Nice catching up with Stacey and Shawn. Stacey's been dying to go out since noon, and due to some reasons Mum didn't want me home too late tonight, we had to end up at Gelare in Parkway, instead of the Siglap one. Thanks to Shawn who said he knew the manager, and I was hoping for some great discounts or bigger scoops of ice cream...but the sad fact was that only he had the discounts for everything cos Stacey and me bought our stuffs before he finished his pee-ing business in the toilet.

Stacey and I were busy chatting with each other most of the time, while poor Shawn was fiddling around with hps. He's damn busy manz..throughout the evening, he was sms-ing non stop. I wonder how much his hp bills are every mth..lol.

Gotta thank these 2 people for their concern. I'm so appreciative of it. But apologies to Shawn, as I think I was giving him a rather cold treatment to some extent. Didn't mean it manz..sorry!!! I think I was being quite unfriendly too. Kinda feel a bit guilty cos this shouldn't be the way I treat people who are concerned for me and wanna make me feel better. Hey Shawn, I'll be nicer the next time round. I'll talk more yah?

Ok, as for what I had. Waffle ice cream!!! Just had it on Saturday, but I had it just now again. Not because I miss it, but because I wanted crepe. But since the only place I could of which has got it..which is Marche..and no way I'm going there cos it's freaking ex..I decided to just make do with waffles. Had the small waffle with macadamia nut ice cream and cream. I was contemplating between macadamia and butter pecan, but chose the former. Definitely not because I wanted to bring back certain memories, but because I just love that flavour. Butter pecan wouldn't be a bad choice too if I chose it. I don't fancy waffles much, so most of the time, I was hurrying myself to finish the waffle before the ice cream. It wasn't fantastic on the whole..hmm..maybe because I was too distracted chatting with Stacey rather than eating and enjoying it. Stacey didn't have anything to eat, but just ordered a drink. Shawn, the joker, who didn't eat dinner, ordered something which I can't remember..was it pasta? He ordered a big plain waffle with maple syrup, and was so kind to offer us girls half of it. These small little things do mean a lot to me...

Shawn wanted to go catch AVP when he actually watched it already(siao..too much $$$ to spare...*evil grinz*). He suggested going to Cineleisure..and the timing's so NOT right, cos it was close to 10 when he asked if we were interested. I wasn't keen on watching it too :X cos I think it looks scary? Hmm..and of course, the characters look ugly (agreed by Stacey).

Decided not to take the bus, but walk home after the meet up. It's kinda breezy today, and it felt great having the cool breeze around. Definitely lifted my spirits a little.

Had to take the taxi back halfway cos it was really quite late, and I didn't want to get a scolding when I get home. Quite friendly taxi driver I met..didn't talk much though.

Once again, thanks to these 2 wonderful souls. The evening was simple, but thanks for taking time off to see me. :)
