Busy weekend.

These past few days think i spend more time outside than at home. Anyway i'm on night shift again so i have plenty of time to type this long post haha.

Fri meet sc and wt at city hall for dinner. Went to Out of the pan at Raffles Shopping Centre basement. Ordered Cheesy Chicken Sausage. Though it look plain, the taste is pretty good. Then shared dessert Hazelnut Royale, which is a waffle with chocolate ice cream, mango cubes, hazelnut cream and chocolate fudge. After that shop around and wt bought a lot of things.

Sat meet cindy and her friend at Expo to attend STAC EOY cosplay event. Was quite excited since it's the first time i attend a cosplay event. But a bit pissed off after finding out that those who enter after 3pm got in for free. And those early birds pay $12! @$%^&*~ Those organizers! Anyway the whole event was quite fun as there are many people who cosplayed and did it very well. The booths at the event were average not really that much to see, mostly fanart. Was interested in an Ichigo figurine but seems like it's not the official figurine. Cindy went on to bought a pair of grass sandal, a Bleach badge and an Ouran badge. The competition starts at 2pm and it start off with the team cosplay. Didn't get what some of the teams are trying to do like the Final Fantasy 8-bit theatre. Fave is definitely FFVII:AC, they did a great job, with all the sound effects, action and their costumes. The hosting skills of the mc is average, they don't really know how to liven up the atmosphere. The stage is a bit small cos at the end everyone have to squeeze on stage and could not pose much. Seems like most of the cosplayers are not there for competition cos the mc have to drag random cosplayers up to compete in the individual event. And even though there's a quite a lot of people attending the event, probably less than a quarter voted. We left after the results are announced.

Later in the evening cindy and i meet hm, kl and st to celebrate st's belated birthday. Have dinner at Han's. My chicken omelette was average, the omelette looks ordinary kind of the type you can cook at home. Went to the arcade at Century Square where they played the drums game. St damn pro haha. After that went to Starbucks where hm started taking sub-standard photos haha. Went home around 10.30pm.

Today meet mal and yc at bugis for yc's birthay celebration. Yc was late so the two of us went to kino for a look. Mal succumb to the lure of 20% discount and bought a book haha. Gonna buy my stuff tomorrow when i meet cindy. ^_^ Then mal bought a photo-frame at Shibuya. Yc arrived and we went to have lunch at V8 cafe. Ate chicken baked rice, not bad cos the crust is crispy and the cheese beneath it is soft. Shopped around till about 4.30pm then went to have my dinner at the foodcourt.
