17!

On Sunday my mum wanted to visit the Kranji Resort, so dad drove us to that rather ulu place. The sun was happily radiating all its heat energy onto Earth, but the warmth felt rather comfortable. It is still under development, a lot of fruit trees have not grown fruits, but apparently the villas there were fully booked. They looked quite nice, big glass apartments that are fully air-conditioned. Another alternative to chalets in the east! 

Dad brought me to the fruit garden and named all the trees there, saying that they'll all bloom and bear fruits within two to three years. Funny how my dad can talk to people of any kind, one moment he was talking to the malay security guard about how hot is it, then he talked to an indian worker about how it'll take years for the trees to fully develop. Heh. Mum as usual was on the lookout for things to buy. I bought this DRAGON FRUIT flavoured ice-cream! 



And there was this seafood restaurant with lots of live seafood outside. I saw this thing! I have no idea what it is, just thought it didn't look eatable. Urghh. It's legs were flailing around!
I think that resort will be a nice place when every thing's up and ready!

Today! Went out with yixin to Vivo quite early, we wanted to go rollerblading at first, but I got really bad broken blisters on my toes so I couldn't make it=( Watched a movie, then went to this chinese restaurant with super nice service! Ohh well, we paid a lot for it anyway. BUT the atmosphere was really nice and the waitresses were so thoughtful- they always made sure our teacup was filled, cleared plates immediately, and even helped me push my chair in! Ahh. I felt so pampered=)





I thought the pot of tea was quite special. It sat on this glass thingy with a little candle flame burning in it to keep the pot warm. It was continuously refilled, I think we must have finished three whole pots of tea. No need sleep tonight le la!

The scenery outside vivo is always evolving, it didn't look as nice as it did today! A mild breeze kept blowing, making it very comfortable to just stand by the sea and enjoy the scenery. Simple pleasures of life!

So we just walked around to pass the time. There are SOoooo many shops in Vivo, we barely visited five places then it was time for dinner already. I pulled him into Toys'r'us and we started reminiscing  about our childhood days. We were both a fan of play doh! I wanted it so much back then but my parents didn't get it for me, so I always borrowed my cousin's to play. Yixin was much luckier, he had almost all the toys I wanted! Unfair. He was so interested in Legos too, while I thought looking at baby dolls were more interesting. AND! He didn't know the secret behind the magic milk bottle! 


There he was, thinking about the mystery of the magically disappearing milk! I thought it was pretty obvious. HAHA.

Dinnertime came very soon and the not-so-hungry us settled for chicken rice at this chicken rice shop. It was good, but the taste was...weird. Easily 腻 kinda food. Didn't help at all that we were super full by then. Blehh.
It was a very happy day out together! Never felt so relaxed before, now that we don't have the exam burden anymore. How nice would it be if every day is as blissful as today...ahh.
