An experience alone

Hey guys! And here's a new blogskin! I decided to go for something simple this time (the previous one required quite a bit of editing and even then, it wasn't what I wanted). Hope you like it! So admist the new year celebrations, here's a post from long ago.

   Had a day off from work on a Sunday and so, started my day in town with Jacinth. Went to F21 then Cotton On.

                                                              While in the fitting room..





                                                                 

Then went to scape flea for a little while and shopped there too. After a while, she left for dinner with her family. -.- Pangseh me. ( she told me beforehand, i think. BUT STILL.) So I was left to go have dinner by myself. 

 Walked around cinelesure area but I couldn't find anything to eat so went back to my familar territory: Bugis! Hehe. Yeah, I could've pretty much headed closer to home where there's a food court, but I was worried about my things (shopping bags) being left alone while I ordered food. In addition, I also wanted to pamper myself with some good food after the hard time at work.

     Arrived at Bugis+ to continue my hunt for food. Went to level 4 and walked quite a few rounds there(with my shopping bags). 2 hours had passed since she left but I still hadn't eat.Was quite frustrated and mentally cursing Jacinth for my situation. Actually wanted to go to one of the korean restaurants but it was crowded and I found it selfish to occupy a table for myself  when there were other people in groups who were also waiting to eat.. Tried to queue for Manhattan Fish Market but felt awkward again with one big group of people infront of me chatting happily. Ugh, so annoying. 

       Finally, I chanced upon this new restaurant! Reddo Sushi!(MY LIFESAVER.) There were no customers at the time I went in. (Like woah.) So perfect for a lonely girl like me searching for food. I felt my spirits being lifted up a little with its quiet environment. (Nobody in groups talking. Thank god.) The staff there were really kind too, or was it because I looked a little blur? Haha. Anyway, she told me what specialties there were on the menu, chef recommendations, etc. Really grateful for that. And finally I ordered. YAyyy.

                               They were so nice! Gave me the 4-seated table with cushions. Ahhh.


My green tea! It's refillable.

                                                                   Salmon sashimi!


Look at how thick one slice is! The price is really worth it!

                                                  Kimchi Udon! The spiciness was so shiok!



Oh nomnom.

Yep, that's everything I ordered. Enough to satisfy my cravings for both jap and korean food!


Sat there sipping my green tea after I finished my food. Meanwhile, snapped some shots of the interior of the restaurant!


                                                      They had 2 sides of the restaurant!


Check out my ring and nail! haha.

@ Bugis+ Level 4
Opens from Mon to Sun : 11.30am-10pm (last order at 9.30pm)

Overall, I really enjoyed eating there. Their sashimi was so cold and fresh! I like my sashimis cold. ;) The price may be a bit expensive for some items but I don't mind if it's once in a while. In addition, I happened to talk to one of the staff there and he told me that they actually do change their menu! I'm sooo going back there again!
       
       It was also a new experience for me- eating alone. I realised that it wasn't that bad to eat alone afterall or even do anything alone. It's just the initial deliberation, overthinking and the public that leads us to feel embarrassed, awkward and scared to do anything alone. Hey, I'm one of those super quiet and shy people who would rather not do it if there's nobody else with me. But well, I tried to step out of my comfort zone and enjoyed it! Applause for myself, seriously. I even shopped in a flea nearing the end of last year alone. Enjoyed that too. You don't have to care about people's opinions, like 'this doesn't look nice', 'I don't like to eat this' blahblahblah. It's kind of a freedom actually. Remember, don't care about what people think about you, because hey, you're just eating alone, it's no offence. IT'S OKAY.
