Went out with RY and Shirley today! Visited several Art and Craft store to buy ding ding tang tang for our hand made cards. Art Friend is so overrated, the store is a bit messy, if you're a noob in crafts ( like me) you'll be totally lost.After which, Bin brought us to Mount Sophia and claimed that its a nice place for photo shoot. After leading us through a flight of stairs that seems never ending, we arrived at "Diagon Alley" and tada! we found! buildings and roads -_-" But luckily there was this place called Old School. Don't know exactly what it is, but there was a photo gallery and a very very big space, for photo shoot? im nt really sure. we roamed around and took some interesting shots. Well, my skills are like so raw and unpolished and every shot was like -_-" kinda angry with myself. BUT i've borrowed some Photography books so that i can learn how to craft a good photo! As planned, we went to Coffee Nations to have dinner. Had a hard time finding the place and fortunately, thanks to Bin's instinct ( animal) we found the place! Erm, to our surprise its not very crowded and the owners were doing some filming. He asked if we mind and of course, as shy creatures, we decided to hide in one corner lest we get caught on camera. The staff are very friendly and have a GREAT sense of humour. Staff: Can i take your order?
Me: yes, can i have one onion ring
Staff: you mean one? one onion ring?
Me: * stunned*
Staff: grin
Me: one BASKET of onion ring * no pun intended*Staff: Anything else?
Me: FIVE PXS of drumlets.haha, he was just joking. and i played along. AND i made a fool of myself. I really rmb reading off somewhere that when you go to Coffee nations, when you say " hungry go where" you'll get a discount of your orders. Happily, i asked the staff if there's such a thing. He looked at me, astonished and went to check with his Boss. Later, his boss came up and questioned ( yes questioned) where we get the info from? knowing that i've made a mistake ( maybe its in essential brew lah) i quickly apologised and brush off the idea. BUT the Boss insisted on clarifying the doubt and brought up his lappy and in the end...really gt no such thing! URGH! i almost died can! sorry BOSS!The place is very cosy. BEST place for.......GOSSIP!! the lighting, ambiance, furniture! best! but the food wasnt that terrific but i wouldnt say its not nice. I had a Club Sandwhich with Foccacia Bread and the girls each had a Sausage platter. The portion is tad too small.The coffee is good. i had Caramel Frappe! nice nice. i slurped it all! We hang ard there for like 2 hours? 3 hours? and finally decided to leave. Nice ppl there, nv chase us away and keep serving us water! haha, its a nice gesture! oh we got a free latte ( thanks to Bin's thicken face) and Bin gt a free biscuit from the staff, well, that greedy pig.It was an enjoyable day! so much laughter! nice nice We're gg back on Xmas Eve. Giving up on Wala Wala, no fate! haha! YEAH im gg to do my cards now!
