Hellllo again! Haha this is gonna be a terribly long-winded and/or boring post, depending on my mood. I'm in a good mood tho. So yay for all you nonexistent readers!!! What darlings you are for sticking around.
As the title suggests, yes this post is gonna be all about... drumroll*...
(short pause due to extreme laziness)
..FOOD!!
Anticlimactic much hahahahah. But it's my fave topic so yaaaay! And sucks to be you if you don't look food \o/
So, anyone who knows me/ knows me well enough-will know how much I adore anything that can be eaten. Happy Together by Turtles is like, the ultimate anthem for me when it comes to food:
"Me and you, and you and me
No matter how they tossed the dice, it had to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me.."
See, just like me and food. Hahahaha geez I sound so greedy.
Anw! Aside from peas, eggplant, capsicums, mutton, lobsters, sashimi, frogs, b/mustard, kiwis and pineapples (allergic to them in uncooked form but it's okay, cos I never really enjoyed the taste of pineapples anw so I haven't missed out on anything! And most kiwis I've tried are too sour for my liking. Makes me think of puckered faces)-ermm, okay now that I've typed out it sounds like I'm damn picky when it comes to food haha-I love everything else!
Hot chocolate:
At least I'm getting paid for my internship~ and if I work for Comex, then yay mo' money! Moneymoney come to me I need you for clothes and food and shit. Haha yes I sound materialistic stop rubbing it in my face! I know happiness can be derived in other forms, like laughing and chatting with awesome sweet people. But sometimes you need money to e.g. get the freshest air possible! Like paying 20 bucks to get into those domes at Gardens By The Bay. So damn pretty btw *__* I want to go again! Anyone who'd like to sponsor me? No? Okay.
And nope I'm not done ranting about the perks of shopping hahahaha. I think it's a different experience and gives me a lot of happiness cos it boosts my endorphins and can make me feel better. Sometimes even window shopping makes me happy, just looking at everything shiny and packaged and pretty. Okay, I'm an aesthetically-inclined kinda person. Usually though I prefer quiet bookshops and quaint food joints to crowded, loud places.
Got new wedges from Plain Jane!
Mary-janes, yayay. I'd been looking for a nice pair for a really long time! Okay cue Turtles' Happy Together one more time.
Met lazymird the other day and went to 112 (? the Katong Mall?) for a jaunt and ended up getting this-
Chicken rice from Wee Nam Kee!
Apparently it's like a huge deal and there's almost always a queue! But aiyah it tasted only alright. The thing I liked best was how fluffy and yummy the rice was. Gimme Five Star Hainanese Chicken Rice anyday! Kampung chicken tastes so much better hehehe and I don't care if their rice is oilier. Matches my face LOL #self-derogatory
A bigass monster-sized scone!!
It doesn't look big here but that's cos I was lazy to take it out of the paper bag and just stuffed my phone into the opening hahaha. But it's about one and a half times the size of the *average* human palm and can feed two-and-a-half hungry Beckys in one meal. So that's really good! Whoohooo
And I think it was an orange cranberry scone. Honestly, they should come up with better names for flavoured scones cos it doesn't seem to do the snack justice at all. Like, I don't know. Zesty cranberry teatime scones? Oh but they sell this all day! And zesty reminds me of that soap, Zest. No one would feel like eating it cos they'd be thinking of soap and bubbles. Hahaha wtf I am a hypocrite. But anywayz I think the scones at Foster's/Marmalade Pantry are much, much better. This one's too big to be appetising, and too dry cos it doesn't come with butter/strawberry jam!! How can you serve a scone without jam? That's just wrong. I'm full of angst today LOL
Some greedy person drinking a whole carton of milk.
View from East Coast park was nice!

I was feeling pretty down in the dumps on Tues, so I was really happy that I got to meet up with belly and wonsies for Buddy Hoagies!!
Drinks, s'up sup sup
See, four drinks for three people. This is the perfect example of greed. HAHAHA
Frothy close up of root beer float ommm it looks gooood
My super gross minestrone soup that looked more like curry than soup cos it was filled with so much oil and shit. The worst part was how bland it tasted. Oh well, at least I had a Belly there to slurp up all the noodles in the most unusual way, managing to make the rest of us lose our appetites hahaha.
See, that's my spoon posing mid-air in the background in preparation for another Instagram'd moment! Everything's about IG now lolol. I'll start once the exams are over, I swear! And omg what am I doing blogging I should be studying oh gosh fml. Mushroom soup was okay. Garlic bread was ~hand-wave~ hahahaha average too! I took the smallest piece without realising and started complaining LOL.
My black pepper chicken was good! Came with mac and cheese (bright orange, defug how do you eat something that's that colour? I can't even)
The baked rice was yummy! But the only qualm I have is, how is that baked rice? I mean, really! It's just rice with onions and diced carrots, all nice and compact but in no way baked. Hahaha I'm so anal.
And the rice kind of reminds me of the yummy rice from Sugar Bun in Kuching so I ate it all up! Hehe pig oink
Cow's arm hovering hungrily/impatiently while I took this pic.
Ah but overall, the food was mediocre/forgettable and the service was shiteous. Have you ever had a waitress say, "Can I take your order?" and walk off without waiting for an answer? Wtf! Oh I hear One Singapore playing on tv now hahaha. HAPPY NATIONAL DAY SINGAPORE! I don't always love you, but I do every 9th August ^_^ I just like watching the parade and everything cos the performers look so carefree and happy. Watched the NDP preview the other week too and it was cray kinds of awesome!
Anw this is what our convos at Buddy's went like:
Cow: I hate going out!!
Me: You should be going out while you're young! You can stay home when you're old-
Her: I'll stay home now and when I'm old
belly's and my eyes were all - ____areyoukiddingme___-
Serenading the menu-You look lika Ms. Swan, lady!

Wendy's with the girls at Holland V! I was contemplatng skipping medlaw but in the end I went, like the (damn) good student that I am. Hahahaha fine, it was only cos I'd already gotten the warning email for skipping too many times.
Bought mini donuts for medlaw! (: WHOOO FOOD MAKES ME SO HAPPY
