A Better Title

In a bid to break the monotony at work, today I decided to watch porn at work meet up with T for lunch. She was in Orchard as she had to go to the Nokia service centre to get her phone fixed. She also had to meet up with her relatives. The only problem was that the former was in the morning, and the latter was in the evening, so she practically had 5 hours to waste in Orchard.

After delaying the scheduled meet up time by half an hour because I wanted to start the build process first (the program build process usually takes up a lot of time, which I usually leave for lunch), we finally decided to have lunch at Cuppage Plaza. We wanted to eat the Indonesian Bakmi (noodles) there, but alas the stall had already closed.

We finally decided to eat another Indonesian food from another stall there called Kantin “Aneka” (literally “Various” Canteen). The good thing about this stall is that the food looked and tasted authentic (actually, I didn’t even realise it until T told me). We had batagor (short for bakso tahu goreng, literally fried tofu and meat), which is sort of fried tofu and meat (duh) served with peanut sauce. Too bad I didn’t take any pictures. I had extra rice as well.

For dessert we had soya bean curd. I think I really have to start learning Chinese, because it was hard to say “I just want bean curd only” when the guy at the stall didn’t even understand what a “bean curd” is. In the end, I had to say that I wanted Set A (bean curd with youtiao) but without the youtiao.

Well after that, we went our separate ways and never met again until the afterlife, I went back to my office and she went shopping.

My gum is starting to get annoying. I’ve been having swollen gum since last week. It’s at the corner next to my molar teeth.

I used to have this problem last year where food will get stuck to the gum at the corner there, which eventually got infected, and I had to see the dentist. He charged $40 just to clear that section and prescribe me a medication to reduce the pain and swelling. It’s not exactly a wisdom tooth problem, because the teeth are already out, just that they’re partially covered by the gum.

This time at first I thought it was because I’m too heaty, because the swelling is not as bad as last time. But then it has been going on for quite some time, so if this carries on, I think I’ll have to see the dentist again.
