Nightmare~~~Nearly Robbed

Had a real terrible experience earlier. Met my cousin Joey for dinner. Supposed to be a pre birthday celebration - dinner treat for her..since she was having a wisedom toothache, decided to postpone & head to geylang for some porridge to soothe her toothache...
Y we chose geylang, cos we arrange to meet at aunty hse (near paya lebar)...& nearest eating plc for a quick dinner at this 9+pm hr wld be geylang lor....

As usual, we sat down & ordered out food, finished & chit chatting...I usually wld not leave my bag on another seat next to me. Didnt noe y i stupidly left my bag on the stool which is nearest next to me...but i had the instinct i didnt feel safe & somehow was too carried away with our conversation & left the instinct at the back of my mind...
I had noticed this guy who was sitting right behind us. he was lying on the table & tot prolly he is 1 of the staff at the stall resting or something.....didnt bother too much....After awhile, Joey saw the guy walking too closely behind me & bending dwn almost to snatch my bag which I had left very near me..& he just grabbed & ran....
Immd Joey stood up & chase him. I chased too...& screamed..."抢劫!!抢劫!! (means robbery!!)"
I reeaally screamed my lungs out..hoping some passerby wld help...
After a short chase, the robber actually ran pass another coffee shop & thank god...some gd enuff young guys in the coffee shop heard me & gave a chase too...After a 50-100m, these young guys who gave chase manage to snatch my bag back & returned to me....Nothing was lost!!! Damn Heng lor..!!!!

Golly!!! We had nv encountered such experience in my life...Joey & I were horrified....we nv believed this kind of things will happen to us!!! best part... my hp was in my bag & Joey has a habit of not bringing handbag & alwas leaving her hp & wallet on the dining table... we couldnt even use any hp to make police report.....Everything was jus toooo fast for us to react ...Luckily, the coffee shop aunties heard my screams & kept her hp & wallet for her...returned to her when we went back.....Thank god!!!! we got back our stuff & no one was hurt....
We both agreed we will REEAAALLLY AVOID GEYLANG for the longest period....!!! Its just toooo complicated....& rowdy.... Giving 2nd tots, we shld not have chased....If he had lead us to more deserted lanes there wld b no one to help us & w/o our hps by our side....& if he had accomplices....things wld not be the same...we could have our lives endangered.....Sometimes its better to forgo wat u have in your "stolen handbag" to protect your lifes...!!!!

& Never ever leave your handbag on the seat next to you....alwas leave it on ur lap or hug tightly to it!!!!!

Was msning Ah quek this afternoon, cos i met him at Vivo city on friday nite. Surprised to see each other...LOL
sharing him if i should buy Twilight books, surfed net last nite & found out there r 4 books altogether. & the highlights attracted me...Ah quek said he finished all 4 books (Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, Breaking Dawn)...i was like -__-
u read this kinda of books 1 meh??..hahaha....Well, he didnt actually, cos he bought the set for his ex gf & tats y he read them as well....LOL
Okie....my turn...went to bug hb again...cos today we had planned not to go shopping & wanted to stay home..he agreed to bring me to Kino to get the books...YaY..!!! he is the best...whahhaa!!!
When i arrived at Kino, there is a huge crowd of teenage girls & young adults around the books. I managed to grab a set, but then some came in hardcover & paper cover. Was a little disappointed. Some titles are left with 2 books. Not much to choose from. & u noe paper cover seems flimsy....
HB came & tapped me on the shoulder...& he carried the whole set of hardcover. ($149.80)...Double the price of papercover ( $80) wor.... He said its ok..cos these set of books are meant to read & keep...& morever only 2 sets left on the shelf....20% disc..affordable lah...
At the cashier counter, the cashier said "This set is at 25% disc.." Cool!!! more savings...heehee....
Headed to Gammaphone to look for the soundtrack of Twilight...Damn disappointing lor....the staff said the soundtrack is not out yet...OMG!!! People are all downloading from internet oredi & u tell me its not out yet...no wonder there is so much piracy....these soundtracks should hit the store when the movie is released...hai....
Nvm....at least i manage to get my set of Twilight Saga....heehee


Okies....gtg now...my twilight is waiting for me...bedtime stories... =)

8th Year

To b precise, our annivesary falls on a Tuesday this year...tat is the 9th. Hb needs to go for class on tuesday, we decided to bring forward our little celebration a day earlier & lucky us, today is a holiday over the long weekend...
This will be the 8th year since we have been together & of cos 5th year anniversary since we are lawfully husband & wife....
Since we just returned from our Bali holiday, which burnt a small hole in HB's pocket, i shall not bug him for a pressie..."what a considerate wife i m...!!! LOL
Continued with more shopping therapy at Suntec, Marina Square. But, got nothing out of it...i did a few fittings but somehow either, cutting not too rite...or mayb fashion were mainly for Xmas.
After continuous 2 days of shopping, dragged our tired feet to Central for our humble dinner celebration...
I have cravings for good cuts of steaks....
Heard from Huiling. "Just Steak" at Riverwalk served very good steaks. So we went there.U noe wat happened??? The restuarant actually CLOSED down..!!! OMG!!!
Luckily i did some backup research a couple of days back...hur hur hur...change venue to Fine cuts @ Central basement.
Hmm....this place of cos does not have high class restuarant ambience, but i dun mind. so long as they serve quality steaks i m satisfied....I dun need high class restuarant which serve lousy food....kekekeke
After some recommendations by the staff, I ordered a US black angus steak & hb was pondering if he shld order US Kobe ribeye & a little setback by the price...whahaha...
Black angus cost like $9.50/gm & his Kobe cost like $23.50/gm (3X more pricey)
After settling at our table & ordered wines, took a pic of this which i find it quite cool...they explained different beef cuts which i think many of us wouldnt know...haha....or rather signature potrait of their eating place...

Our steak arrived after 8-10mins...
my order of Black Angus (270gm)
Hb's Kobe ribeye (370gm)
Wines to go with our steaks..
Based on picture of the steaks, u cannot tell the difference....hahaha...to b honest, i think the black angus & kobe ribeye is world of apart comparing the texture. Of cos the price really tells...hahaha
Black angus does melts in your mouth, is juicy & chewy. much better than any other steaks which i had tasted b4.... but when it comes to Kobe ribeye. think cannot b compared.
Kobe has more marbling than black angus. & its blends & melts very well in your mouth. The chewyness & juiceness makes u not wanting to swallow the bites in your mouth...Pefectly, heavenly..!!!

& here r the cost damages...

We are totally satisfied even though of the damages done. Its really quality steak we have ever tasted before...=)

Before ending my blog entry, hmm...after such a long marathon in our relationship, things had turned well. there r lots of ups & downs in life which we both went through. Occasional tiffs are unavoided...we managed to solve them when it comes along....
