Back to Work after a Tiring Sunday

What a tiring day. Walked all around SIMTech @ NTU today while students were having a hands-on workshop assembling a fuel cell.

Thankfully, their fuel cell worked. So now, only need to worry about their report. Or aka 'manual' for the 'Education Kit'.

Yesterday was also a tiring day. Rock-climbing at Tanjong Pagar. But only stayed for couple of hours. It was utterly boring. Coz nobody else was climbing. Then decided to go shopping at Orchard. Almost wanted to walk to Orchard. But thankfully, it was too far away to consider. If I wanted to go Dhoby Ghaut, prob would have walked. But the contact lens promotion was at Wheelock, so had to take MRT. $100 for 13 months' supply of contacts. Very good deal.

Then spent $30 on high tea @ Royal Copenhagen. Very nice sandwiches. Wanted to save the 2 slices of cake for the next day, but I will get to what happened to them later. Spent about 3 hours lounging & reading, so it was money pretty well spent. But think I should go look for better high tea deals with a greater variety of food. $30 for 2 mini-sandwiches, 2 slices of cakes & 2 pots of tea wasn't very worth the money.

Stayed till Robin finished his work & came to town for dinner. Of all places, he wanted to meet at Funan. Coz it wouldn't be crowded with people. True enough. It wasn't crowded. No, sirree, not crowded at all. But since I was in the mood for exercise, I decided to WALK from Taka to Funan. By the time I reached Capitol Building, I almost wanted to call Robin to get him to carry me to Funan. And right there and then, I get a sms from him informing me to take me time - because he's enjoying a cuppa...

It was back to PastaMania. For the umpteenth time, we ate at PastaMania. But at least, he didn't have Aglio Olio this time. *grin* Argh! Just found out that PastaMania has a Loyalty Card Programme. Oh, but it's only valid at Scotts, Lau Pa Sat & Causeway Point. Never go to these outlets. *sigh* Too bad. Had a microwaved lasagne. Ew... Was recommended this new Coriander Chicken Pizza. Not that good either. And then Robin finished my cheesecake from Royal Copenhagen... *sob* Luckily still got a slice of chocolate brownie cake left. Coz Robin DOES NOT like chocolate!
