went for Matt’s Baba House excursion and i’m happy to say i enjoyed myself. did you know… traditional Peranakan houses actually have peepholes in the floor that let bibiks look down from the second level to observe guests and even spit sireh down at them if they don’t like them? how civilised… muahahaha!

after Baba House, we had lunch in the arts canteen then Erin, Didi and myself met Higgs in his office. my progress is dismal. i feel panicky and disheartened all at the same time. and i know i’m supposed to get cracking, but i’ve never felt this slack my entire life. someone prod me please!

next up was the project meeting for Innovativeness. PL and i headed over to Raffles City to meet Mel at Gloria Jean’s. ice blended drinks are going for $3 from 2-7pm, happy happeee day~ though we were distracted here and there, we managed to complete our agenda and then some, as you can tell!

when we were done discussing, the rich music and tantalising tango beats led us like the pied piper’s mice into That CD Shop. we sampled lots of CDs, i even listened to some old Chinese big band tracks. after some hunting, Mel got PL one of the High Society series CDs for her bday then we headed home.

i <3 Mel and PL! and gloria jean’s for 3 bucks :P
