Yup it's duty now, Mt Kelud has not erupted yet, if not I won't be here blogging already =D Alright, so just a while more before I go to sleep, I shall blog about my trip to nus yesterday!
So I took a day off yesterday with the hope of going to ntu to crash some lectures but unfortunately, it was not really possible ): Well kangwen happened to take his pm off, so we decided to head to nus for lunch! We took 95 to nus and on kangwen's suggestion, we decided to head to arts canteen to try the food. But in the end, we got off at the wrong stop but we still walked there in the end. But then, we couldn't find the arts canteen and had to ask around for directions. So we continued walking then in the end we reached computing! We asked for directions again and finally phew we really found the canteen. Then first thing we found out was that the western food is, to quote kangwen, "obscenely cheap". It's $2.20 for a plate of fish and chips or chicken cutlet where the meat was of decent size. Kangwen tried the cutlet while I got the fish and chips. We swopped food and I found that the fish was better tasting than the cutlet. The taste was decent enough, considering the cost of the dish. According to my friend's introduction, the laksa and japanese food is supposedly not bad. We didn't try those two stalls because the queue was exceptionally long. After lunch, we wandered off in search for another canteen. The initial thought was to head to science but kangwen decided to find out the myth of extreme gender imbalance in engine. It turned out rather true and the atmosphere in engine was pretty dull, maybe due to the drizzle at that time? After passing through engine canteen, we finally settled down at mcdonalds. Kangwen was meeting his friend for dinner, so we waited in macs for quite some while before his friend, Tovya came. They decided to cab down to Greenwood Fish which is just behind njc (yes I only knew about this place yesterday) for dinner and since I was headed to town, I hitched a ride with them until njc so that I could take 174 from there. Then I went off to town in search for my books at kinokuniya before heading home for dinner.
That's more or less what I did yesterday, if I left out something, pls refer to kangwen's post for elaboration ;) Till then, I would be looking forward to my next off day which I don't even know when it will be. For the next exploration then. ntu? smu? or some other places in singapore? I am undecided yet haha. I really look forward to lunch tomorrow but if you really cannot, there's always next time, don't worry (: Two days more to your big day, cheer up ^_^
Off to sleep then...yawns...
