today.. having a busy and fulfilled day... I woke up at 10am trying to help my friend to settle the dog between the new owner - my anoTheR Fren .. trying to be the middle person between them by helping to negotiate the price and the payment mode.. till 230pm i was still sitting infront of the computer negotiating when i were supposed to meet my friends - Charlene, Lan Li, Beverly and Chai Min at my previous student care..
Upon reaching there at 3pm, i noticed a big change with the interior design of the place that i had a hard time finding the place .. Luckily, i saw Aunty Kathleen - one of the in charge who had supervised me before during my mischievous days ... She directed the way to me. It was quite a rush at that time as we had to get started on making a birthday card for our childhood friend - Jia Rong .. We were really racking our brains as it was sort of a last minute plan.. Finally, Beverly and Charlene started drawing pictures and words .. and somehow inspirations seek them and we were able to get the card done within the constrained time that we were given..
After which, around 450pm, we walked out,hailed a cab and rushed down to Marina Square to meet the birthday girl Jia Rong and Cherry... We were so glad that we were able to make it for the dinner buffet at Yuki Yaki on time as it starts at 5pm.. We started taking a lot of food and condiments that were provided by the restaurant to prepare for our DIY ( Do-It-Yourself steamboat).. We cooked our own fried rice by frying the rice with the egg covering every bits of the rice, some teriyaki sauce and all sorts of ingredients that were available for our own creativity ..

Nice?
Next, we proceed to our ice cream buffet and the staff made the arrangements for us to change our table... which I was looking forward to it- the most important part of the buffet.. The ice cream buffet was not like Ponderosa or Seoul Garden where you scoop your own ice cream and that's it.. It is something different and unique and you derives the joy from frying it.. Unbelievable right? Well, actually the ice cream provided by Yuki Yaki comes in a cup with milky syrups of different flavours - green tea, cupuccino, passion fruit, raspberry, chocolate, strawberry,yam, durian and peppermint.. Before cooking the syrup is in a liquid form and after cooking in their special pan where the temperature can be adjusted for freezing the liquid, it is in a solid form and it became an ice cream..
As we were in a big group, the table was not able to accomodate the seven of us so we were located to two tables.. I sat with Chai Min and Cherry at a table and the rest of the four at another table.. The good thing was that the tables were situated side by side.. so we were able to communicate and enjoy ourselves .. After getting the kick of frying the ice cream, Cherry suggested to see which table can make use of the creativity to make a artistic figured ice cream with the syrups ..
Later on, Cherry suggested to make a birthday cake out of these syrups.. so i told them to pour a layer of the syrup and leave it frozen before pouring the next layer.. Initially, we wanted to stack the layers very high till it looked like a birthday cake but when Cherry was pouring the first layer, Chai Min and I noticed that it forms a shape of a girl faced.. As Cherry was able to see the picture of the girl face, she decided to use some of her creativity to make the eyes , nose and mouth with the toppings that were provided to us.. Finally, that is how the final masterpiece of our creation has borned .. haha.. Cherry requested for a candle from the staff and we placed on top of the birthday cake.. In fact , we even sang birthday song to Jia Rong, so loudly that everyone was looking at us. Few rows across our table, the group of people somehow were influenced by our antics and started singing the birthday song. I think they were also joining in the fun .. haha.. It was so funny that we started laughing at ourselves...
That is how we end our day with - laughter, smiles, photo taking and antic.. =P
Looks like a girl face right?
eyes using raisins
nose and mouth using choco chips .. haha
