Yo! Feel sian now!!! AHHHH.
Went to IKOI JAPANESE RESTAURANT today with my parents! It was mind-blowing can! I wanted to take pictures but the camara click damn loud then I very paiseh. haha.
1st we had salmon sashimi appertizers and that was the most wonderful sashimi I've ever tasted!! Followed my mix sashimi plate (tako, swordfish, tuna, salmon and 2 more which I have forgotten). by now, I was pretty sick of raw fish but it was good!
After that was chawanmushi. It had a very strong eggy taste. The fried tofu was good though. A little spicy but nice. The yakatori was tough and probably one dish I would not recommend, along with the chicken wings. The unagi was good and so was the tempura, particularly the shitake tempura. Then they served miso soup in a small kettle and we had to drink the soup from little tea cups! That was delicious XD. The assortment of grilled fish was alright.
And I finally got to try SOMEN! It arrived cold, with ice cubes and it was heavenly. The chasoba was even better than the one at Kushinbo, with the strong seaweed taste making it very pleasent. We also had this steamed fish head which was good. The meat came off in chunk. Salmon skin maki was one of the highlights of the day. The skin was crispy and flavoursome, while the mayo and roe evened out the tastebuds.
Finally I ate some beef curry. The beef was tough but the curry was fragrant and wonderful. The rice was hard though.
Oh and I met yeu keed on the train!
This was a very foody post!

Aim in life
Hello, fellow space aliens.
I've been wondering for some time now: what is it that I want to devote the rest of my life to? The reason for this concern? I find myself wasting time mopping around the house and rotting in front of the computer for hours on end doing nothing. Its not that I don't enjoy my time at home or playing the computer cause usually I live in a Kampung for most of the week. I cherish my time at home but I feel that there should be more purpose in my life. I should be doing something that will benefit others or have a significant impact on my future.
Perhaps this is a result of being surrounded by the academic elite for 5 days a week. I see people around me preparing for interviews, tests, etc. These are people who have countless achievements and are striving to do more now. For me, perhaps the singular form of 'Acheivements' would suffice. Other than academia, I have no other achievements I would put down on pen and paper because there are none. Take the NUS scholarship essay. It required us to write about an achivement that would be beneficial to the NUS community. Total ownage. I didn't know what to write.
Ah well.. Guess I'll have to try to think of an answer to my worries.

Hello! Yes, I'm trying to remove the msn virus. Sorry about it!!
Had Pei Xian's farewell dinner ytd. WE went all the way to central at clarke quay to eat... RAMEN. Tasted like good wanton noodles. lol. The pork belly was baddd. Tasted much better ones at curry favour. And we had Ramen refills for 2 dollars. They literally gave u another set of noodles (w/o the soup) I ahd to steal some soup from eunice XD
After that we headed to the Singapore River and ate ice cream. Walked to Marina Square (with andrew annoying us with his cantonese all the way) and crossed one particular road with no traffic lights at the junction! It was stupid and deangerous, but hey! We were high! lol. Stopped at marina square starbucks and chatted till 11pm. Tried to take photos many times but failed everytime! =( Px is going to Shanghai for 6 months. Leaving on thursday morning and I cant see her off! Sad!
Today... watched The Shinjuku Incident with Grace. Its a good movie, like all Jackie Chan movies are. Quiet gory though (To me, everything is gory). Ate Ice cream again until the rain stopped. Super tired now.
All right, thats all for now! Going back soon. Cya guys!
