*Everything can be predicted nicely, but to make the happenings continue as usual is another matter*
I think got recent news report that mentioned every elderly has to fall down at least once in their life (wth theory is that), so night shifts just got busier for HDB areas! So although I should have slept after my 3 night duties, I still went for the outing. =P
So me, WL, Nat mei, Eugene (aka apple), YL and ZY went for this random outing, not hosted by me of course~ =P
Time the outing is supposed to start: 1400
Time I reached Somerset: 1335
Time 2nd person reached: 1401
Time last person reached: 1445
So ya la, just walked around 7-11 and HMV, looking at the CD tracks while listening to the songs being broadcasted. 7-11 was broadcasting 'Make it last forever' which made me stoned at the mineral water and other cookies for a few minutes. Owl city had a new album? Hmm... Didn't look through much as ZY called to say that he had arrived at location (1401). YL arrived at around the same time, thus we went to walk around Somerset 313 random shops and cold storage.
I got a big bottle of mineral water. ZY went to get a bottle of small pepsi.
me and YL -> O_O
When we reached the end of the Cold Storage trip, ZY had swiftly changed the Pepsi to a bottle of Coke, thus the coke company had an odd man out. =P ZY is really a loyal supporter of coke! Cheers! :D
Me: "Eh! How come suddenly got 1 ulu bottle of pepsi here sia!?"
--------------
The rest arrived by 1445 (45 mins late), so with a bottle of coke and many hungry people, the outing began auspiciously! ^^ Apparently the plan was to grab and bite and catch a movie, so we head to Orchard Cienleisure to choose a movie that suits everyone and dosen't clash with Euegne's book-in timing. I suggested 'My GF can see ghosts', since I have no idea what's good for everybody. My mei wasn't so enthu though, as that movie was a Korean movie and it was rather troublesome to read the subtitles.
Nat: "Eh kor, that movie is Korean leh, have to read subtitles very ma fan lor..."
Me: "I know Korean... (movie, but read very fast de mah)"
WL: "Huh Jeff you know Korean!?"
The bracket represents the things I wanna say, but do not have the chance to say. Seems like most people do not really want that movie, and we ended up settling for 'What to expect when you're expecting'. Sounds nice too~! Kena dragged to buy the tickets with her, which most people followed and proceeded to take out the $10 notes from the wallets, until Eugene just throw a $100 note at the cashier.
Rich and style like a boss! (claps!) ZY was very interested in the coke picture and banner pasted on the table and the nearby walls. He kept laughing at the times when YL kena disturbed because of Trecia's absence. =P

1520hrs
It's the 1st time I heard of the fast food 'Everything with Fries (EwF)', apparently it was recommended by my mei when she tried it the last time with her friends. Rather nice, but I don't have the impression that it has other outlets in SG. Few types of burgers, 5 types of fries, soft-drinks. A burger for $6.90, a complete set for $9.90. I must say that there was seriously nothing special about the fries, because it is about the same as other fast food fries, straight cut, thin, but with additional seasonings like Salt+Vinegar, curry (which tasted like Instant noodles' condiments), plain, etc. Don't need to elaborate on the drinks ya?
I ordered a (dory fillet?) fish burger with cheese and mushrooms inside. That burger is delicious! The fish serving is quite large, compared to some miserable serving at other places. The mushroom cheese combination was great also, although it's not as good as BK's mushroom swiss burger. A rather big burger, so actually it's quite all right being $6.90 if you a moderately filling food item. Quite a number ordered the bacon and egg burger. The egg tasted like egg (who said that?). My mei ordered a crispy chicken fillet burger which she said she had no idea what was that. I tried a mouth and recognised that to be prawn paste chicken.
Nat: "Eh kor, how you know is prawn paste, the name like Korean leh."
WL: "Jeff knows Korean mah!"
Me: "Alamak, the taste is being stated at the cashier counter luh~"
ZY seemed very hesitant to eat the vege, but managed to finish it. WL didn't touch his coleslaw~! I'm sure most people should know that Mac's seaweed shaker fries contained a small percentage of sugar in the seasoning, thus making the fries sweet. ZY put 2 packets of white sugar to his fries, which was er... Not nice.
Nat had trouble finishing her fries, so Eugene helped her out greatly, while I took out a few of them to make a love message using 8 french fries. Kena condemned upside down by almost everybody. WL decided to make a much better one using extra sugar and ketchup packets, along with his untouched coleslaw.
Fresh Coleslaw coated with red loving ketchup, coated with white sugar for perfect sweetness~ Nice right!? I still find it strange how come WL dosen't have a gf, haha~ :V
98.7FM had a mini race that day in Orchard Central, so we listened to the random live broadcasting while savouring / chatting randomly. =D The rest of the remaining time was spent walking around Scape. Much more crowded than usual, with more people selling random stuff both in and out of the proper mall. Didn't see Shawa, probably his off day. :/
~~~~~
1650hrs
While on the way up to the cinema lobby, there was an interesting movie poster 'The Hedgehog'. However the animal which the characters were carrying looked more like a cat than a proper hedgehog. ZY was laughing at that for quite some time and shouting 'LAZERCAT' at that poster. Because of LazerCat, meow~!
YL: O_O
WL: =V
Me: XD
Coincidentally JH was also there and watching the same movie as us. I think he should be a Signaller (wth is that) now? Definitely looks much happier than the time he was studying. Hmm~ There is a small stall that sells subs / salads and is extremely expensive (about $12 pet set). A bottle of coke cost $2.70 at the vending machine, which turned ZY off totally.
To be honest, I didn't understand the movie storyline. If you are mentioning about handling different stages of pregnancy and how to handle the woman's emotional stress, that's still all right, otherwise the whole continuous movie is a blank to me. Some scenes are rather funny though (Like the woman introducing breastfeeding to the children / speech on the stage), best to bring along gf to see. ZY understands everything for strange and unknown reasons. So hmm... Although he looks cute, but the innocent part must have a query in front! Wahaha~ :D
----------------------------------
1900 hrs
Many people seemed to be fascinated by the 'Gachapon' machines at the basement. So we took a look at the toys they offered and the price. $3 - $4 for a capsule is a rather ridiculous price, I wonder who will play that.
~Ding ding! You got yourself 2 red potions~!
Next up is slacking / chatting about life time at Starbucks @ 313 Somerset! I ordered ice-chocolate with cream? Eugene, WL and my mei ordered other drinks with coffee contents. The tall Malay guy was rather cool/style and definitely patient in waiting for us to decide on our drinks. Someone should give him an award!
(After about 5 mins of looking at the menu)
Guy: Are you all ready to order? [With smile]
Yes Sergeant! XD
-----
10 mins later, we settled down comfortably at a table with a nice view of Orchard road shoppers and a random pau shop. While I was happily enjoying my iced chocolate...
Nat: "Eh kor! Why you come SB never order coffee to drink de?"
Me: "Er... Cos I do not drink / like coffee since young?"
Nat: "Try la!"
Me: "Nah."
Nat: "But kor, not drinking coffee at SB is just like going to KFC without eating chicken but eating fish instead."
Me: "Huh wad?"
Nat: "Just like Mac is famous for its fries, then you go there and don't eat fast food."
WL: (Another relevant example)
Jeff: "So is just like going to burger king without eating burger right?"
Nat/WL: "Ya la!" ^^
Alamak! I actually wanted to go to the Cold Rock Cafe for some ice-cream instead, but nvm! This iced-chocolate is also awesome!
Eugene went to the toilet for a rather long time, so the rest of us just talked about life, CCAs, studies, useless subjects, playing with ZY's red capsule. =P Currently 1.5 years into NS, all these topics are just like memories, the time when everybody was complaining about the heavy homework loads, the stupid diagrams / theories we have to memorise, the number of days we have to devote / commit into our CCAs, and all the efforts are just to get into a course of our choice. Different routes, different methods, a whole new experience for everybody.
"You all are now sitting in this hall. When you all get your A-level results, the person on your left or right, or maybe even yourself would not get into a university / course of your choice."
The awesome kind of sentence you would like to hear when you place your trust into an institution so as to have a brighter future. Anyway Eugene came back later empty-handed, and ZY dosen't seem to be very hungry. So we continued our talks and I was rather surprised by 3 things!
1. YL was from NPCC! Sia la uniformed group personnel! Dosen't look like, only for me, the rest agree that he definitely looks like one. O_O
2. Eugene only had basketball as a CCA. He looks like the kind who has more than that~
3. WL is the saver of all PJ's AV items' faults. Anything that is wrong, and he would be there to save the day! Woah awesome, undercover hero exposed! :D
No la, the 3rd point anyhow de, but its still true that he is an awesome troubleshooter for AV equips.
-------
*Surprise*!
The cool guy came to our table with a cake, and sang a birthday song with the rest. Hmm, he was quite wise to think that it's my birthday. Somehow a lot of people missed out on ZY, so I just pulled him in. ^^
"Once a year we celebrate, with stupid hats and plastic plates..."
Apparently I really suck at cutting cakes (No experience), and the fruit cake was freakin' icy. Eugene helped me and ZY, along with making a fruit avalanche on the metal plate. The silent one is always the wise one. [More like he can't stand the cui-ness] The cake was delicious! Vanilla sponge cake topped with white chocolate pieces and traffic light fruits (Strawberry, peaches, kiwi). Fragrant, sweet, Great! :D
ZY loves the white chocolate pieces, so I ate more of the fruits on the cake and the avalanche ruins. The peaches were definitely smooth, so I took a stick from Starbucks to finish up.
Nat: "Kor! Why don't take 1 more stick, then can make a pair of chopsticks to eat. Easier right?"
The truth is I rather not use a pair of chopsticks as my way of holding is described as weird in many people's eyes. Anyway I am ok with using a stick, so let's just stick with it (literally).
--------------------------------------
2030 hrs
Eugene needs to leave as he needs to book in before 2200hrs. Thanks a lot! ^^
So everybody continued to talk about random stuff, while I continued with my fruits. ZY has stopped eating the white chocolate as he said it was unhealthy. (Drinking coke is healthier~?)
Next up is drawing time. I have no idea how did that even start, but the next hour was dedicated to drawing on the cake box, foolscap paper, about random rubbish, cats drawn by ZY, SOH drawn by my mei, along with whales, names of everybody... Just when things couldn't get any more random / funnier...
WL's phone: "Nom nom nom nom nom nom nom, nom nom nom nom nom nom nom..."
ZY had a notebook for English lessons. So out of curiosity, I took it and started reading out random pages. His command of english was fine, at least he dosen't write long sentences and have commas everywhere (like mine). The long passage on himself was rather well written. Another page contained commonly use sentences and phrases, not bad also. The next page explained the differences between nouns / verbs / adjectives, etc.
So in case you are wondering why 'Meow, nom, whale, square, cake', you got it. =P
YL said there was a place to stone at Mandarin Hotel, so we went there and surprisingly it was rather cosy with a few sofas and nice background music. We were not alone as there were others sleeping on other sofas. Rested there while listening to various random music and looking at the interesting signs in the area. I have no idea why I should be a pro in old songs (That's War!).
ZY wanted to leave after like 30mins? A group of people were dancing in front of Taka. Wanted to cut across them with my mei, but she dosen't want to... Aw! =P
ION orchard played Maple's Henesys BGM when we stepped into the foyer in front of Orchard MRT. That was totally random! They should have played a boss theme music when we went into the toilet. With this epic ending and a whole night of sunday night randomness in Orchard, SD / SOH's 3rd outing officially ends here.
Ah, with no coke from ZY.
~~~~~~~~
I forgot to mention Eugene and my mei gave me a bag of Levi's merchandise. Thanks a lot! =D
It was indeed a fun outing. :) Shall be posting the small number of pictures I took in another post. ^^
12:01 AM
The random pictures related to SOH's 3rd outing!
Ok la, I did not take every single one, but somehow they ended up in my phone. Enjoy! XD
EwF burger, coleslaw and fries! This set is mine, with the fish inside the burger and the satisfying amount of fries with ketchup at the side. This is enough to make you full. :)
SOH's awesome random-ness! Nothing was contributed by me. Is that animal a Koala? Cos I cannot recognise it... Somehow the things written on them do make sense if you look at them individually~ :V
And yea, the display pic which I made as 'Unclassified Makan'!
So from top left and in a clockwise direction...
*Eugene, Trecia, Jeff, Nat, WL, ZY, YX, YL*
So how were the pics chosen to represent everybody?
Eugene: Apple, his maple IGN consists of Apple, so here's a cool one for him!
Trecia: A bear? I took this from her FB pics, it looked cute, just like her smile. :)
Jeff: Happy birthday jellyfish! WL put this as the original display pic, so I just took it. Appropriate!
Nat: Pitbull's 'International Love'! I wanted to put Nata De Coco, but it looks boring. Well she sang this at K-box right, even though almost nobody knows the song. Suits her anyway~!
WL: DJ monkey! He said it looks cute, I agree.
ZY: Don't need to further explain, right? ^^
YX: Anime character. Just like Trecia, took from his FB pics. Looks like real life YX anyway!
