05/28/2006 (Not really)
I’ve decided to go back blogging. It’s fun! I’ve been having some sleeping problems the past few weeks now. I’ve been trying to sleep till’ three or four. =< I’ve had a good sleep today thoug. I woke up at ten just lounging around the house.
At around noon, my mom told me to get ready for church. So at three, we were ready to leave. What’s curious was that we were brining some wine and some wine glasses. Huh? "What’s going on?", I asked. We’re going to Catmon. It’s north of the city. It’s around an hour’s drive and a half.
Our car zooms pass a sign. "We’re here!" So after a few meters, we stopped then moved back. We entered this hilly field that’s around a hectare or so; we can see the beach too! It’s around a minute’s walk to the beach (okay more like a sprint =P). One notable thing was this shed right in the middle of the sea of grass.
We arrived. My dad told me to get the camera; so I took some short vids. We were at this German restaurant. Amazingly, it’s miles from nowhere and still people come here. What I really like about it is that it’s really homey. It usually only serves two groups of people at a time. There were these ducks and rabits in the place (they’re all enclosed though =<). They had these cool dogs that run around. One dog’s called Natasha. She can do all these tricks like sit and other stuff. The thing is that she only knows German =D.
We first started out with some great bread. I guess it’s like French bread. It’s goooood. Dinner at the hut started with some goulash. Then we took the wine off the cooler. I loooove wine! It’s a sauvignon blanc. It had this apple flavor. Then came the main course. I loved the beef and the gravy with the red cabbage complimented it. I really didn’t like it with the wine though. We should have brought reds. But the dessert was really friendly with the wine. It was apple strudel with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. It reminded me of Austria. There was where I tasted the best apple strudel I’ve ever tasted.
On the way home, we stopped by church. What was great was that we only stayed there for just 15 minutes. We were kinda’ late. After that we stopped by Chow King for some Nai Cha, siomai, and buchi. Buchi used to be my favorite snack. I was a buchi conossieur! I’ve been searching for it at every Chinese restaurant in Europe. My mom wanted to eat rice instead of all that pasta. The feelintg wasn’t mutual though. I couldn’t even find root beer in Europe!Going back from Europe, we stayed in Singapore. At a mall there, I tracked the smell of buchi. It was five minutes away. ;P
Woah, I didn’t expect talking about buchi! I don’t really like it now though. It’s croissants that I like!
Okay, so that’s today’s story.
Ciao!

Lol, that did sound like I was in Europe! It was somewhere north of the city. You’re going to London!? Okay, I think you are. I was so stupid to miss out Buckingham and the London bridge for Lego Land!
