Today I woke up with a sense of foreboding! Today is the day I chose to go get eyebrows. Get them? (meaning I don't have any?) Actually to make them more visible. I have very light eyebrows and even though it takes less than 5 minutes to draw some on, laziness prevails and it seems like I chose to suffer rather than be a bit more efficient with my time.
I'd actually paid and signed up for the package awhile back but its taken me about 6months to gather the courage to go through with it. The whole process took approximately an hour (which makes me look like a lamer for waiting so long) and I had a very good therapist who despite the language barrier understood pain and made sure my eyebrows were always numb enough for her to scratch on (even going as far as to apply numbing cream for an extra 10minutes)! In the end, after all is done, I can proudly say I survived, now all I want to do is stick my face in a tub of ice cream!
Before & After |
Time to start gathering courage for the "touch up" session which is done within 3 months after the first month. In the meantime, to be extra careful with my brows for the next two weeks. I did however think that the after care kit was packaged very nicely. But its such a rip off that they charged me an extra $150++ for it.
Contains 1 anti bacterial, 1 anti scarring, 1 bowl for mixing and 1 small spatula. |
Onwards after that to meet up with Ina for lunch, we had planned to go to Suntec City for sushi until we found out that the place we used to frequent (not so anymore) has been closed for 4 months now! So instead we ended up at Sakae Sushi in Marina Square and what a big mistake that was. They should change their name to Sucky Sushi! Firstly, the menu was rather limited. Secondly, the service wasn't that fantastic even thought it was way past lunch hour and 2/3 empty. Here's the reason why I will never ever visit Sakae Sushi again on my own accord- we ordered the Fried Salmon Skin which was served cold. And everyone knows there is nothing that taste worst that cold oily food. So I asked if it could be sent back to be fried again and the waiter responded that he will microwave it. MICRO-WHAT??!? Was this how our food was being prepared? That's insane! And when I insisted that he either fry it again or get us a new one, he said he had to check. Urgh. Also when I ordered the sashimi from the set menu, the pieces that were served were the lousiest cuts of sashimi ever. Just because I didn't order the regular sashimi, that allows them to serve me gross slices? Sign OFF! Never again Sucky Sushi!
Hilarious motto that they live by! IF ONLY! |
The afternoon was not wasted as on the way back, I stumbled upon- TIONG BAHRU BAKERY!!! Smack in the center of Raffles City Shopping Centre! I remember having a conversation with a friend about it just yesterday and I couldn't resist joining the queue to try the flaky pastries on display. I decided to bring home a Pain Au Chocolate, custard and raisin bun and a round swirly thing that ended up being my favorite and I'm gutted I don't even know what its called!!! I'm sure that whatever it is its not good for any diet but then again what good food is? Doesn't hurt that the chef is as yummy looking as his croissants either.
The round swirly thing on the right is my new sugar fix! |
