Very very satisfying meal :-D

First, I got to thank my colleagues for being so concern about me. But gradually these concern are becoming a kind of pressure... Especially when it from a whole bunch of them and loads of food... But nevertheless, it is still concern and accepting is all I can do.

Dinner today is real fantastic! Joined YY and Wai Theng for dinner at Sushi Yashimato(hope it is correct) at Somerset area. First time I tried sea urchin(sashimi and cooked version) and it taste wonderful. The taste is closer to shells with a sweetness originating from the freshness of the urchin for sashimi version. Cooked version wise, sweetness lingers but less intense. Overall, the food is excellent and does provide authentic Japanese food. Though it is to the expensive side but you get what you pay for;-) The tea-flavoured rice is really good. May go back there next time to try other varieties.

After dinner, headed to Clarke Quay for a walk and desserts. Manage to get seats at Nectarine after waiting for about 5 to 10 minutes. Got a great time choosing cakes and enjoying them;-) Parfait was light, Choco with coconut lingers, Irish coffee was strong and Black forest was not satisying. Overall, I think the Choco with coconut is a success. To think that for someone like me who dosen't like coconut will actually appreciate and like it, the cake must be of some standard. The liquor cherries of the Black forest was not marinated well enough and the taste is not exactly good. The cherry wine in the mousse of the cake is too light. Only the fragrance of the cherry and a light sweet taste can be tasted:-( The tea selection is not fantastic but good enough. Tried the peony tea but was a little disappointed as the after taste was not good. Though fragrant it may be but the bitter after taste is too strong. Quite like the Pomegranate tea YY ordered and first time I tried a Sarsi-like soft drink which Wai Theng ordered. A pity I can't remember the name but the taste is quite similar to Sarsi except that it is not as sweet.

Over the cakes and tea, we chatted about work, changes in our life and we really had a good time:-) During dinner, it is more of feeling our way around as Wai Theng and I are not that close though we are ex-colleagues. The dessert session was the time when we already had a better idea on communicating with each other and I just got to say that "xiang feng hen wan" hahaha! Haiz it is really so sad that we only got to really start to know each other now and she is leaving for England soon... Not easy to find another person whom can click easily.

This is the 1st time I indulge myself and enjoy myself so tremendously since recovery from chicken pox. Not sure if it is because of happiness or uncertainty... Going to Univerysity to continue my education is like a dream come true. And the problem is I am not sure if am I up to it or rather I can't believe it... Maybe I have been thinking about it for too long and when it finally came true, the feeling of uncertainty and unbelievable sets in... Many questions start sprouting up and suddenly, my old dreams strike me again... Maybe life does have some totally unexpected surprises installed for me as I progress so guess the best bet is just to move along and see what happens.

Ok going to read some stuff and go rest... Need to wake up earlier for my blood test... Else it got to wait till next week...
