It wasn't our first cycling moment. I still remembered back in our secondary school days when renting chalets were the 'in' thing, something every secondary school kids did. I don't know if this is still as common among the secondary school kids nowadays. But anyway, we would go for (mid)night cycling till our legs went sore, till we couldn't even feel our butts. Those were such carefree days. 

Saturday was our cycling date, in hope of getting him involved in my exercising lifestyle as often as possible and it was a success because he enjoys it. A good start. 

He led the way, with every turn made according to his wishes. It felt good that we had no destination in mind, just going with the flow, not hectically racing against time. 

Our first time trying Japanese Hotpot last Saturday. But relatively, all hotpots are the same, aren't they? The dishes and soup bases don't vary from heaven to earth.

$10 salmon slices which was average as compared to the one we had at Sakuraya Fish Mart; cheap and fresh!

Anyway, we had the wagyu loin set which includes the vegs plus an additional plate of ala carte pork slices. The meat are thinly sliced and undeniably fresh, yet the snow dome soup which we chose ruined the dining experience as it is too bland for our liking (and we paid $3 each pax for the soup base). For hot pot, soup base is considered one of the important criterion, at least to me. So ya, this overall shabu shabu experience wasn't appealing which might have been different if we chose other soup bases(?). Oh, except for 2-3 tables of locals, we were surrounded by japanese so I guess it shows that their hot pot is quite good, just that we chose the wrong soup base that night.

One point worth commending was the good service provided by their friendly japanese waiters. 

Came across a blogger's post on her visit to the Mummy Exhibition at MBS and it intrigued me. I mean who wouldn't be intrigued by events that have occurred thousand centuries ago which can be reminisced & displayed right before you now? All the past tenses are the reasons why present tenses exist which will in turn create the future tenses for the next generations.

 Strolling through museums around the globe should be made a job, then I'd probably find myself not complaining a bit about stepping into the working society as why whine when I enjoy what I'm doing every second? My top perfect dream job. 

Saturday date was of course to the Mummy Exhibition which I've spent the last 5 minutes rambling about. It has been a while since the both of us took public transport which took us more than 30 minutes & I really do miss those golden days back then when Redbull hasn't gotten his driving license. Yes, convenience aside, I can cross my heart & aver that I prefer taking public transport even if it is more time consuming because I'm not in a rush to end our dates so every minute that we spend together counts, right? But, Redbull is just, I'd say plain lazy & too used to the convenience the car is bringing.

 I enjoy taking slow walks, or perhaps just have myself lying on a patch of grass. Actually, simply put it as just doing random things together without racing against time. Be it schooling or working, I always have to be a slave of time, hence during my personal free time, I wish for him to compliment with my random suggestions like picnic, cycling, night walking, etc. But well, most of the times, I kept the random suggestions to myself for fear of rejection/any sign of complaint or reluctance during rejection or after acceptance of the suggestions.

Happiness is a state of mind which I'm still living in, just that we all have dreams, wishes & fantasies, haven't we?

That afternoon was rainy but the skies did us a favor by containing the tears by the time we alighted from the bus.

No photo taking is allowed so...

 A 15-20 minutes long 3D film which unveils the mysterious Egyptian burial practices and mummification process will be the first stop that welcomes you. I'm not sure if you can give this a miss and proceed straight to view the artifacts and 6 genuine well preserved mummies, but well the film is interesting so since you're already there, why would you wanna miss it right?

Early dinner at 

 ↓ ↓ ↓

Choco drink which we ordered cause we saw almost all the tables had this and sure it was good. 

Price: $8

Truffle fries was a letdown. Maybe because we had nicer truffle fries at Omakase Burger. 

Price: ~$15

My main course Ultimate Benedict made up for the disappointing truffle fries.

With 2 fluffy pancakes, steak, 2 benedicts, bacons, tomatoes & lettuces. 

Price: ~$20

But as you can see from the picture, you can guess that I gave up trying to maintain the appearance of this dish while savoring it.

Redbull's main which he didn't even finish half of it. He was mad like hell, finding it a total waste of time & money. Well, I find his wasn't that bad but it sure wasn't worth the trip and money.

Price: ~$18

Looking to its dessert section for comfort 

but ended up being more disappointed after trying this apple pie that has such a tough crust. 

I'd like to have faith in the other delicious looking desserts, so till then for your desserts.

But, he has my back watched, like he always does. I've the necessary guards on my palms, knees and elbows AND my personal guardian angel so all I did was enjoying the breeze on my face as I blade instead of letting the fear of falling invading into my freedom to let loose and have hell lotsa fun.

With you, I'm not afraid of falls because I know no matter how hard I fall, I'd never snap out of reality as my reality is always better than dreams. 

High anticipation for Moojaa last Friday after work. Truthfully speaking, the soup base (shiok!), cheese tofu, cheeseballs, crabstick & meat are undeniably fresh and satisfactory. BUT, we felt that the price we paid was unworthy. Not that $32 for a steamboat+BBQ buffet is unacceptable, just that we felt coerced & compelled to opt for buffet because Moojaa has priced their set meals ($40 for only one type of meat + the usual standard dishes) in a way that it'll make customers feel that buffet is so much cheaper when it isn't. It's like we were caught in a 'we have no other better alternative' kind of situation. 

Well, our views may be biased or perhaps we may be too narrow minded pertaining to the usual marketing strategy of businesses. But this experience just dropped us a super big hint that we probably aren't steamboat+BBQ lovers.
