friends @ work

a BIG thank you to Amy for inviting me along to dinner tonight :)
sometimes, life has a way of suprising me. yesterday, it was an invitation to come for dinner tonight by Amy, a fellow ocbc-ian from gt whom i have hardly interacted with since joining.
we went to the Manhattan Fish Market at Central - Amy, Andrew, Joelle, Weiqiang, Hendra, Diem, and me (hope i got everyone's names right -.-
the food was good, loved the chips and garlic butter sauce!
joelle and i decided to share, mainly because we ate alot during the day...
i took joelle to qi's parents for lunch at Lucky Plaza and she had the bak chor mee, i had the dumpling soup with noodles, and we shared a bowl of fried dumplings. firstly, i told joelle to try the soup....mmm....sweet!! and i also gave her my dumpling to try which she really liked so we'll definitely be back there again!
then we went over to taka and browsed at gucci, ferragamo, kate spade then headed to B2 for snacks!!! ps. we were super full after lunch.
joelle insisted that i had to try this japanese pancake with ice cream and red bean. we took it to the counter to pay for it and the lady gave us fresh ones cos she claimed that ours is a bit soft. and after opening the packet, we realised she gave us the one with green tea ice cream and red bean instead of the plain vanilla with red bean. but we just said we'd give the green tea ice cream a try! lol
then we headed into cold storage and bought snacks - chilli lime tortilla chips and apple and aloe vera juice.
then we got takopachi - a box of octopus and a box of bacon and cheese.
then we got these chinese desserts which is like chng tng except with pear and longan.
*shakes head* we were so full we were almost falling asleep in the afternoon.
unfortunately, i also had a very long agenda for the afternoon....
somehow managed to finish by 6.45 then joelle and i headed to central....after finishing our dessert which we started eating at 6.25!
i really thank God that i have joelle, she not only helps me out with learning how to do my daily work but she puts up with my craziness and makes going to work something i look forward to. next month will be sad when i will be gone for the first half and then she'll take leave the second half :( how depressing to come back from my trip and not to have her around to laugh with and chat.
