Updates...
Work had been especially busy these few days. Guess it is good to be kept occupied eventually.
Had dinner at The Balcony yesterday.
It was not a very good place for dine if you ask me.
The food are so so though a lil' cheaper than those average fine dining ones. (eg: Surf n Turf)
Their drinks are kinda expensive and with the + + +, I say it's not really worth it.
Maybe the ambience is good but seriously I would prefer a more enclosed design.
Orchard Road during Valentine's Day was usual.
My personal opinions stay. The bigger/fancier the bouquet, the bigger the sucker.
I dunno what's up with extra big bouquet with mutli colour roses inside or a life sized doggy or teddy bear. (even bigger than my Pooh! I repeat, LIFE SIZED!)
Cliche? I think it is nothing but stupid to pay for overpriced item for something that we classify under the 'perishable' section.
Not to mention the (almost) uncountable groups/pairs/solos there selling flowers.
I would patronise the one who look hungry,tired and weak , and sell matchsticks.
Ok, give them a break. Everyone's trying to make a living. But seeing those people who are selling, they are more like trying to steal some advantages (which is a fail-fail strategy in that area) of the occasion.
Maybe a small bouquet is forgivable. (but not just a stalk! if you are getting just one stalk, you might as well buy chocolates or fake flower or just a plush)
Big bouquets for suitors are acceptable but not couple. But big bouquets for just any day other than V day is very welcome.
We say, Sweet~
What would be an ideal V day gift for me?
I don't usually look like the price of the gifts. DIYs are welcome. A simple love note (that's non copy right) is sweet.
But if you don't mind, get me a LV next time. I dont want flowers on V day.
Haha.
Kidding.
Will upload the photos taken...if I bother to...next time.
Happy post V day.
