S.J.C. Kbox outing

Finally, we had our S.J.C Karaoke outing at Jurong East Kbox yesterday. Looking through my archives in this blog, the last time we went kbox together was last year february. This is soo soo long, please. I’m really very touched and happy to see three of us together again and of course, SING together! Karaoke will be soo soo boring without this 2 char bohs. Claris is my best singing partner, and Sher is our best fan and supporter. Got to know 2 more friends(Shao Ming and Yi Feng) for this kbox outing. They are Mel’s (Claris’s bf) friends. Hmmx.. it was a bit weird to go sing with strangers, somemore with people of the opposite gender. Luckily, they were enthusiastic and spontaneous, which really makes us enjoy the whole kbox session high-ING aroung. Yeah.. found 2 more singing kakis.

From Claris’s blog:

yesterday finally!! met up with my charbos…went kbox at jurong east together with yf and shao..and so…when charbos get together..we talk and talk and talk…it has been damn long ever since we had gathering…we should have more often…and next time MUST take pictures!! yesterday forgotten to take… =X

Ya! How could we miss out taking photos leh?? Ok, ok. Let’s go kbox again this coming weekend? WOOHOO..THE FEVER IS ON! And for the next time, it must be only 3 of us so that we can do recording, yeah?

Currently in my Singing Kakis Club list got Claris, Sher, Collin and Jacky. Cant wait to go for karaoke session with Collin and Jacky. *planning* They sing really very well. Dueting with them really makes you feel comfortable. Of all the guys I know, both of them sing really very well.

We took turns and sang from 2 - 7pm. This is really never enough. How I wish I can just sing until 10pm. After kbox, we went Westmall for dinner when Mel joined us again. We shared about our stories and Mel shared with us the University life. After dinner, SW and I walked to the bus stop to wait for our buses. Really “fainted” while waiting for the bus. We waited for the bus for so so long as if it broke down somewhere. Somemore, I felt a bit awkward with SM, and kept thinking of a topic to chat with him.

Today, went service with Sher. Then had lunch at Holland V. Shopping fever was on and the whole afternoon, we went window shopping. One thing is also to find a bag for myself. My current bag is rotting as the handle is gonna tear soon. Eyed a very nice bag.. but it was so expensive. $80 ok? Of course I didnt buy it but that bag was really nice.  

This week’s reflection

Sometimes, I’m keep thinking of what kind of life I want. Do I really want my life to be occupied every minute, every second? Or do I need a break to have my own quiet time? My purpose of life is to enjoy what I am doing everyday, picking up new skills, growing maturely in my thinking. There’s a lot of things I want to do, but I dont have time to do it.

I really hate the life I’m living now. Oh please, can the time just stop for me? I’m going breathless soon. 

Botak Jones - Damn Good Food At A Damn Good Price

Believe me, like what its slogan reads, Damn Good Food At A Damn Good Price.

Botak John..Botak John.. I have been hearing this name from my dad, but did not have chance to go there. Finally, the whole family decided to go there for our dinner since it was a public holiday. Then I realised that it is Botak Jones, not Botak John. Botak Jones has franchises around the heartlands, which makes food and service to be available on daily basis.

The menu is not like what you usually see at full-service restaurants. Do not expect a nicely-binded and nicely-decorated menu with pictures of the food. It’s a lil cheapo as the menu is just a sheaf of photocopied colored papers attached together.

The menu

Then, we ordered Fish and Chips, and Caijun Chicken. Personally, I do not like to eat Fish and Chips. I may throw up after eating it. I really do not know the reason.. Perhaps is because it is fried fish?

Another thing you must try is their 2nd best meal - Caijun chicken.

Cajun Chicken
Caijun Chicken
Beware! It’s spicy. 
S$ 6.50
The grilled chicken, well-seasoned with Caijun spices and topped with melted cheese and Caijun sauce. Though they use breast meat of the chicken, it was dealt in a way that it is not tough or powdery. The set comes with fries and coleslaw, with tomato and salad.

The price overall is reasonable and affordable. Remember to reach there early in order to avoid disappointment.
