OG 11 Outing 12/10: Outing to Shaw Tower & Bugis Junction (November 2010)
Wednesday, November 17, 2010 @ 4:05 PM
Hi Elevenies,
I can’t remember what we talked about as this outing was a few days ago but I will try to place the more important points that happened in the outing in this post.
On 13 November 2010, Jieyang organised an OG gathering and Yingling suggested that we go Ah Loy Thai in Shaw Towers to have our dinner.
We met up at Bugis MRT at 6pm and Jieyang and Yuhan has already reached Bugis. We waited for Yingling for about 10 minutes as she missed a bus and when she arrived, we went to BHG to shop while waiting for Xinni. The girls went to the ladies section while Jieyang and I lingered around the men’s section and Jieyang was very interested in a sweater and tried it on. While trying on the sweater, Xinni arrived and we made our way to Shaw Towers. While walking to Shaw Towers, we kept commenting on Jieyang for the reason for wearing a singlet for this outing. We asked him whether Hazel would mind if he wears a singlet when going out with him.
When we arrived at Shaw Towers, we wanted to go to Ah Loy Thai but the place was about to close and has stop taking orders already. We then decided to have our dinner at Creation. After we sat down, the waiter took our orders and we waited Joanne to arrive. After our soup arrived, the waiter told us that Fish and Chips were sold out and we thought that after they have served the soup and told us that our orders has sold out it would cause us to become turn off from continuing having our meal. After waiting for a short while, Joanne arrived and we started having our meal. Yuhan commented that her seafood dish got some funny sort of smell like the smell of raw food. While eating, Jieyang inquired whether the piece of meat was beef or chicken as his religion forbids him from eating beef. After confirming with the waitress that it was chicken, I think he felt more relieved. Lol.
After having our meal, we went to shop around Bugis Junction. The girls went to a shop selling nail polish while Jieyang and I waited for them. As we felt quite boring seeing the girls trying the nail polish, we decided to go our way to shop. Jieyang and I went to some shop selling clothes and he tried on some shirts but they were too big for him. At about 10pm, we decided to make our way to a dessert shop across Bugis Junction. As I am having a cough, I did not share the dessert with the rest but had ice-cream instead. We took some photos when we were having our dessert and Yuhan took a few sorts of Jieyang. However, 1 thing we forgot is to take a group photo before we left at about 11pm. Moreover, we also forgot to at least sing a birthday song for Joanne since November is her birthday.
A suggestion is that we will celebrate the OG members birthday every 6 months – once in Jan when we have our anniversary (for members whose birthdays fall in January to June) and once in July when we celebrate Dickson birthday (for members whose birthdays fall in July to December) – as these 2 occasions confirm no one will forget and confirm got birthday cake and birthday song. Moreover, these 2 months we have got higher attendance as compared to the rest of the months in the year. Please consider this suggestion. Thanks
