High & Lows
What a day... From enjoyment in kTv with my good friends... till FINALLY gotten the slightly-more-formal shirt for the upcoming wedding dinner of Yiliang's. Its gonna be the 2nd wedding dinner i went to for my friends... Erm the counting exclude HanKeong's, as i would be expecting another one due next year from him. Don't get me wrong, i am not saying that he will be re-marrying... Just that his official wedding dinner should be next year.To me, being able to attend my friend's wedding dinner is a form of well-wishes i wanted to give them. Being invited, its an honor. It meant that you are holding a certain position, be it a close friend or buddy, in the person's heart. It meant that you earn or did enough to get his respect for you as a person. Its certainly a great happiness to see my friend getting hitched and having that wonderful smile from their face. I hope to attend more~!! But don't expect me to be the main lead myself as i don't see myself in that shoes, in the near future.
When buying the shirt, i was commented more young than a younger friend of mine. Though it supposed to be a sales action by the lady salesperson, i, of course, felt happy by hearing it. But sadly, when i went back Fairprice today, two of my ex-superior Iris & Ms Koh commented that i look shag and old, even having a more wrinkles than her 50+ years old face. Its kinda sad but actually i noticed it myself. Been asking myself, why am i getting older each day. Its okay. I still need to gear myself up for the upcoming event. Hoping to 'WOW' my friends attending. *laugh*
It seems like bad things didn't stop at the right time. After all of us feeling down over comments by others, we get a shocked at Swensen's@Thomson Plaza. As usual, we ordered a regular Earthquake with some new flavours & 2 bowls of deep friend mushrooms. Earthquake was rather normal with those nice flavors, new and old. As for the mushrooms, that was... *vomited* Felt uneasy, coming to think of it... Imagine this....
Swensen's Deep Fried Mushrooms with Hair
Not one mushroom but TWO~!
Yes~! Two mushrooms was caught with hair. Curly, some more~!! Imagine how we felt. And guess what the shop reactions? The waiter took these two mushrooms into the kitchen, showing to the manager. After that, he return and offer us a new plate. How could we still eat that thing? Imagine, we saw it only at the last two pieces. We could never know how many of those (with hair) did we ate~!! After that, the manager did not even come out and apologise. We decided to leave, despite unhappiness. Before our payment, the manager came to us without much sincerity and offer to give us 10% discount (HSBC discount was used). The discount was merely $4. Is this the service you expected from a well-reputed restaurant, Swensen's?
Next time, before i dine at Swensen's i would think twice. I felt ashame telling people that i worked there before, even its merely for a month plus. Yucks *felt uneasy again*
