early morning call translates to the arrangement of a wholeday date ["dinner too"]gosh i don't think i can be in crowded trains the claustrophobia really gets to me with the heart palpitations and sudden induced anxiety. then i meet you on the air con alley and head for chicken rice lunch and then the walk about town to do the this[s] and that[s]. till late and drinks at paulana with his guy pals and their girls and to geylang for dao hui zui supper fun. too tired to elaborate for now but i remember we spent the whole day talking, while walking, in the car resting, at the metal benches facing the roundabout under the bottom-lit trees in a shady spot, in the lift, waiting at the pub for the friends, even when there are no words i feel like we keep on talking and i love it!

additions: and then we were near our favourite char siew rice store at marina food loft but had mutual hesitations about having a predictable meal so we decided to try carl's junior for the first time to satisfy our curiosity. we had a portobello burger each and it was huge! with bigger lettuce slices and a good juicy gravy with the mushrooms, and beef and chilli fries and fries with jalapeno and drink refills. it's expensive fast food but quite satisfying for an occassional treat. we don't eat that much fastfood anyhow, i think i only ate burgers twice this year so far and i haven't had fries yet till now.

and then we went to carrfour to walk around and mingyao naturally gravitated towards the car equipment area and i amused myself by reading the broken english descriptions on some of the korean and japanese products. it's highly amusing and i burst out laughing several times to myself.

and i got my mother some apricot and macademia nougat and hazalnut praline chocolate for mother's day and we went to the car and pushed the seats down and lazed in there, talking and listening to chat b. to pass the time till when we had to meet the other fellas. we went to paulana brahaus earlier than the rest and got seats on the outside which was quieter so we could talk without straining and besides the seats are a bit bent to accommodate a nataural lazing leaned-back position. at twelve some of them decided they wanted supper so we drove down to rocher for beancurd but it was closed so we drove to geylang instead to have dao hui zui and you tiao, after winston made a slight detour through the seedier lanes in the car in front of us [we were following him] to take a peek. anyhow i had a good time hanging out with them and i really love driving around looking for supper and chats after midnight. i'm glad we have so many places in singapore to go to for food and chats anytime we want and such good food at that.
