Merry X'mas & Happy New Year!!!

Hellos! How's your X'mas week? I sure had a lot of fun and weird encounters.Supposed to jot them all them, but as usual me, I procrastinated and now I'm left with half of my stories.

My Wed was the most intriguing day of the week, seriously. It was a half day at work as we had company lunch in the afternoon, and since it was festive season, I decided to really dress nicer than usual for the party, and had contacts on too. Just a simple beige satin tank with my usual jeans and cardigan. Not only do I feel and look good, I got compliments and a lousy pick-up line too. Seriously, at work some more. I was changing for my pass entry alone (usually I'm with my colleagues) as I went to work later than usual (Need to do some clearance in the morning. When I handed in my IC, the guard on duty took a look and said, "Is this your primary school photo?"
Me, as I write my details into the log book: "Yah, I was the last batch to have my IC made in pri school."
Guard: "Wah, you looked so much better now leh!"
Me:"Aiyah, who looked good during pri sch de? all very chui one"
Guard: "Very weird hor, those who looked very ugly in pri sch grow up all become very pretty, like you lor!"
Me: "Thanks har, you just said I looked very ugly in primary school..." *cursing inside my head*
Guard: "No lah, I mean you are prettier now."
Me:"You made your point, no need to explain more, I can take it de" *more cureses*
Guard, trying to change topic now: "Eh, your top is torn and got hole leh. wah you very aggresive hor. Sure got a lot of guys woo you!"
Me, stunned for a moment trying to figure out what he meant, looked down on my top and realised the tiny weeny hole: "No lah! It was loose threading!" *Cursing him, where the hell is he looking at*
It's not even a hole!!!
At this point, I finished writing and as I turned away, I was scolding Nabeh Nabeh Nabeh idiot. And when I told the guys in my office, they laughed and said it was a lousy pickup line. Ha ha. poor guy so desperate that he could only pick me ah.

My company xmas celebration has nothing much to say except one, there's only one grand prize for the lucky draw. Period. As usual, budget limited company. The food wasn't very nice too, all finger food. The only saving grace was the cakes, tho not the log cake.

I had more fun during dinner where I met up with my batch colleagues and we had crab at No. 3 Crab delicacy at Outram road. Then the 3 of us girls secretly went to Tiong Bahru Plaza and got the 3 belated birthday boys their cake. We had told them we were going to toilet, which we went for nearly an hour. Poor them, they had to wait for us before they could order as they didn't want the food to turn cold when we come back. So sweet of them.

The Cold Cockles

Crab Bee Hoon. The lady helped us portioned out the bee hoon on request! Good service!

Butter Crab, my fav among all

Soft and bouncy mantous!!!

Curry Crab. The mantou goes well with the sauce!

Happily satisfied!
I had cold cockles for the first time and it was surprisingly good! I always had the boiled one so it was interesting to eat cold cockles, even tho it was very toxix to eat like that. Then we also had 3 different kind of crabs, Crab Bee Hoon, Curry Crab and Butter Crab, plus 30 pieces of mantou. Among all, I like the Butter Crab most. And comparing to Mellben, Mellben has better sauce but a bit more salty then No. 3. So if you are a bland eater, No. 3 will be a better choice.

I shall end with "Happy New Year Everyone!" Watch out, I'm doing something new! =)
