The Ice Cream Hunting Adventure

It was an abnormal day for me to wake up early on Thursday morning when I am not even going to the gym! I miss gym so much... Haha. But I'm still down with flu, so should not really push myself to exercise. But that day was the day I accompanying my cousin down to hospital for some regular appointment. And the doctor just ended in 5 minutes, saying that there is no need to come down anymore. What a day to waste my morning. So I decided to make use of the trip by going back to school to print some stuff! So nice to see a completely empty COM1!

I also arranged to meet Cliff to watch Rurouni Kenshin aka Samurai X (For those who are not familiar with the ORIGINAL Japanese Title), not sure if he would want to watch it, but I want to watch! Hehe. But at least he would not spend his time in his room doing nothing.

The only earliest timing for us to watch was 3.55pm. There was another at 1.00pm, but we reached there at 1pm, and we had not taken our lunch yet! So 3.55pm was the only suitable choice. We then wandered aimlessly to find a nice place to eat. I was suggesting Japanese, since I think they will have a wider range of healthier choices.

But once we saw Ma Maison, we just headed into that restaurant. The set lunch was awesome! Nicely prepared and cooked. We took our time to chat so that 2-3 hours could just pass without doing a lot of walking around. We left a nice 40 minutes for a long waited Creme Brulee McFlurry. It tasted like popcorn with all the butterscotch taste in it.

Finally it was the movie time, it was a nice 2h 20mins movie. I actually like the prologue with all the blood splashing scene. It was quite horrifying how they actually shot it, but I convinced myself those are fake. Haha. But that was the really well made and shot sequence in the entire movie. Most of the other scenes were actually shot in studios, unfortunately. I thought they will have a higher budget to shoot in some real settings. Nevertheless, still love that theme song!

After the movie was dinner time, but the late lunch we had had not completely digested. And we wandered aimlessly again in Bugis. But as we stepped out of the cinema, we found ourselves outside Subway, and there I saw several familiar faces. Those are the Indonesians I knew in NUS. And seriously, what the hell are they eating in Subway outside the school? The mystery was unsolved till now...

Since we are in Bugis, I just think it would be nice to just go Tom's Palette to have another round of ice cream. However, although it was around 7pm when we got there, none of us was hungry. We sat down somewhere and chatting again. It was just nice we decided to go eat nearby at Qi Ji at 7.50pm, just nice before the store closes.

Then the second round of ice cream madness! But frankly, Tom's Palette ice cream could really satisfy my craving, or the cheapest alternative for me to feel better when I emo. Ice cream is definitely a good but unhealthy way to fight emoness. But who cares? I do like ice cream a lot, and eat it quite often when I was young. It was a good way to end of the day.
