Double Bay, Soup Spoon, The Boardwalk and Yigloo

The past week has been crammed with stuff every day, phew. Also, totally not in the mood to do up a lengthy post cos I just ate (jap rice with some awesome mix stuff that came in a packet, plus instant miso! Yumyumyum) and practically all these pics are of food wtf. So just look at these pics and drool your heart out! Ahhahah

Lunched at Double Bay Restaurant last Friday at Raffles City! It's right next to the actual mall, btw. You just have to step out and you'll see it. We were actually walking around, wondering what the hell to have for lunch (Soup Spoon, meh. Hotel buffet, total rip-off. Secret Recipe, um no thanks!) and stepped outside for a moment. And because the restaurant's constructed mainly from glass, we peered in and saw a woman having what looked like the most delicious *fosh ever. So yeah. That's how we ended up lunching at DB.

*fosh= fish and chips, natch!

My fish and chips! We requested more lemon wedges, and the waitress returned with a huge plate of it, LOL.

Fried are nothing without ketchup! So there.

Complimentary tea:

I know most people love coffee, but I just don't get it srsly. What's its appeal, other than the fact that it smells really good? I mean, c'mon! It's bitter and gross. Or maybe I just haven't found the right cup of coffee for me yet. But who gives a damn, I don't want stained teeth anw.

Then Is and I had Soup Spoon yesterday. I know I'm being slightly hypocritical cos I just said Soup Spoon's meh-ish(?Hahaha), but we were craving something warm and yummy, so.

I love how wholesome it tastes:) Plus it totally deceives you into thinking the soups were made by, like, a granny or something, because it's just been infused with so much love. I love the kidney beans, the small chunks of potatoes, the cheese and everything about it except thecabbage. Why on earth would anyone wanna eat the cabbage? Wtf. Okay, I'll stop brainwashing now. Lol

At Page One:

"Hmm.. it's suddenly very dark. Is it going to rain?"

Ahhaha

Picture books are so freaking fab.

On the boardwalk:

Is walked around in the water but I couldn't cos I was wearing my tights! Ohwell.

I love the castle at Universal Studios :D and the pink monorail? Awesssome

Yigloo!

Okay and -this is really quite funny- we bought Barbie movie vcds from one of the shops at Vivo!

Mine:

And I don't give a crap, it's not childish or silly. You're never too old to watch a Barbie movie!

Universal Studios, Part I
This is kind of overdue but since we took too many pics(and since I'm lazy to do up a long lengthy entry which,anw, who would read? I hate reading wordy entries except from my favourite blogs) I'll post it in parts.

Everyone who blogs about their trip to Disneyland/ Ocean Park/ Universal Studios begins with a pic of the entrance. Which is not unusual but super predictable. So, I'm just gonna be predictable:





One of the first things we saw when we entered was..

Frankenstein! The person pretending to be him did a wicked awesome job; he looked suoer gloomy everywhere he went and walked with a slump like he'd just lost his lover or sth( is frankenstein supposed to have a lover?Lol) And fine it was his mask that made him look sad and grumpy but it was super fun watching that! He kept walking around slowly, like he was in a My life means nothing to me anymore!NOTHING!! kind of funk. Love him!


I honestly salute everyone who works as a mascot/ anything else that requires you to get in costume cos it really got so bloody hot. Can you imagine doing that every day? I would have panic attacks cos the costume would make me feel stifled and claustrophobic (especially if you're frankenstein or woody the woodpecker!) I wouldn't last a day. And Is and I had to watch all kinds of shows with air-conditioning(my favorite thing on a hot day!) and drink ice-cold water to cool down.

Monster Rock:


Btw it sounds and looks awesome from the outside but it was a disappointment. Super amateurish with deafeningly loud music and a sucky sound system that rocked the whole theatre in the wrong kind of way. My ears were ringing when we left so you can pretty much just imagine. Tbh the theatre was probably filled up cos it's situated near the entrance of US and it was so hot that day, you couldn't walk into the sunshine without breaking out in a sweat.So everyone who walked past the theatre probably was thinking, A Musical=Air con!! and decided to watch the it. And you could tell they put it an effort and tried to make it worth watching-they were so energetic and enthusiastic!-but it fell short. Hahaha that's kinda mean of me I guess, but I'm not offending the actors intentionally! I'm just saying.


Random guy looking at my cam

Maybe he likes pink- and if he does, yay you random guy! It's pretty much a guarantee that anyone who loves pink is a good(or at least decent) person! And I'm not being biased. Fine, anyone who loves magenta pink/ ice cream pink/ deep purple/ coral/ yellow/ orange/ white/ red/all eight choices is a good person! In my boat anw. Ahhaha



Puss in Boots stuffed toy doing his classic I'm-Innocent pose à la in Shrek 2,3 and 4:

Classic! Makes you wanna just buy him and bring him home.Fortunately for me, I'm made of stronger stuff! I don't melt when I see cat-eyes but mainly because I prefer dogs. (:



Owl keychains:


I'm personally not a fan, but I've always been smitten with anything adorable/furry(except Puss in boots!! Yes he's cute but I don't love him the way I love dogs/harp seals/polar bears in any form)

Anyway, I googled owl jokes and now I'm sharing them!
Q: Why were the mommy and daddy owls worried about their son?
A: Because he didn't seem to give a hoot anymore.

And another one:
Knock knock Who's there? Owl. Owl who? Owl be sad if you don't love me anymore.

LOL the jokes are lame ttm! And not funny at all, oh well. Owls are not very funny creatures anw. :( Except some species can turn their heads 360 degrees which is disgusting or useful, depending which way you look at it. I vote disgusting!

If you actually found those owl jokes funny then you're creepy but you can read more owl jokes here!

Fake-tall!:




End of Part I!And just in case you're hungry:
