Sunny day again!

Posted by Dawn at Sunday, May 01, 2005
This morning, when I stepped out of the apartment, it was very sunny but very chilly. I had to wear a jacket. Brr..
After church, when I was stepping out, someone called me. I got a shock as I did not expect anyone to call me. It was this lady from church who is going to Singapore and like to meet up with me. She said Jan and her would like to take me out. Jan is another Singaporean who is from the church and has been here for 15 years. Pretty happy as there are so many people to take me out--to places that none of the Singaporean colleagues have been to..

After church, we had lunch at "Cuisine of India" restaurant. It is only 5 mins drive. Everywhere is quite nearby as this place is not that big. But anyway, when we went there, we realised that they have lunch buffet. I told CT that I do not want buffet anymore but when we saw the ala carte menu, one dish was already more expensive than the buffet. So, we'd rather have buffet which is US$6.95 per person.

I enjoyed the buffet! There was chicken curry, veg curry, spinach, yellow beans curry, mutton curry, naan, tandoori chicken, rice..etc.. It taste authentic as it was spicy and taste great. I love the mutton curry. Plus tax, each of us paid US$7.50. After lunch, we rested a while in our apartment before we went to Walmart to print out 2 pictures of our bible study small group as the group wanted us to post the pictues on the noticeboard at our classroom in church.So, we went Walmart to print out the pictures straight from my camera. The rest of CT's colleagues were at Walmart too as after that, they were going to a seafood market. So, I told them I would join them. The printing of photos costs 19 cents per print. Not too bad. Below is a picture of what the outside of Walmart looks like. It is actually a huge carpark.

After printing photos at Walmart, we drove a convoy of cars to the seafood place about 15 mins drive. There were a lot of people at the seafood place...as they all waited and bought bulk of seafood. It is not really cheap but I think it looks rather fresh. We all did not buy anything since it wasnt that cheap. Then we drove back to our apartment and watched TV. I cooked a simple dinner tonight as we were all still full from our lunch. So, I cooked lettuce with oyster sauce, egg with cabbage, chinese-style beef and potatoes with minced pork leftover. It is nice to eat something light and less oil. After dinner, CT suggested continue watching our VCD. So, we watched another disc.

At 8pm, we walked to James' house with Kok Fong and Gek Teng to see his wife. James' wife came last night. We spent time in their house talking and just getting to know each other more. It is mainly for the wives to meet up so that we can go out together some time and spend our daytime . Ha..

It was quite nice walking outside at night to their place and enjoy the cool weather.
