Went down to Il Lido at Sentosa Golf Club this evening with a certain mr. cheapo...i like the lovely ambience there...but it's a place where one should go with someone who doesnt fall into the category of cheapo! n mr. cheapo...true to his cheapo style embarrassed me at the restaurant when the staff came over to take orders! -.-"
When mr. cheapo found out tt my $50 dining voucher could be used on the set meals, he started asking the staff if the $88 set meal is meant for a person or two...when the staff told him it's meant for a person...then mr. cheapo mused tt it's too expensive for dinner! so i decided to have the a la carte pasta with lobster since this fine Italian restaurant is known for its pasta...then mr.cheapo asked me how much does he need to order to top up the amount to $100 so that my $50 dining voucher could be utilized...i told him tt we have yet to order drinks...the waiter was waiting for his food order with eyes wide open (bet he hasnt seen such a cheapo guy in donkey moons? lol ;p) after muchie deliberation, mr. cheapo finally ordered the cheapest main course on the menu (well, i'm not surprised...would u? ;p)
U should have seen the way he gobbled up the slices of bread served in the huge basket...i took less than a slice n left him to gobble up however muchie he wanna gobble up o.O" we were served a slice of cheese which went pretty well with my red wine...not too sure abt his pot of earl grey tea though...
The main course was finally served after muchie waiting...i was looking around the restaurant n other diners with great boredom...n staring into space with great awkwardness...he asked me why was i so quiet (excuse me, am i supposed to be a clown to crack some jokes to keep u entertained? -.-") n even asked me y was i sniffing! excuse moi, do i not have the right to even sniff when i'm sick n having flu???!!! then he started nagging at me abt how i shld take mc n shldnt go to work n shldnt go out at all! excuse me again, did i ask ur opinion on how i shld live my life?! WTH!!! n asked me how did i get my flu (i think he meant to ask who did i get my flu from?)...perhaps someone is so self-absorbed in his little world tt he is unaware of the huge amount of viruses floating around in the air?!
So we ate in awkward silence...n he tried to make some bo liao small talk by asking "this is near the sea, is it?" well, i'm supposed to be some materialistic n shallow airhead but i really dunno how to answer silly questions like this...esp when this question was asked by a Singaporean who was fully aware tt he was on Sentosa which is a small island surrounded by water in all directions!!! n he said a couple of other stuff which annoyed a leech...well, most of the stuff tt came outta his mouth always irritates a certain ms. leechie anyway...n i always thought tt i'm supposed to be the one with low eq? ;p then he tried to press me abt my weekend plans...when i told him tt i would be attending a F1 party the next day...he was afraid tt i would think tt he's damn noob n nerdy n said tt he would be attending a F1 party too on sun...well, i was curious which party he would be attending cos there r only a few F1 parties this weekend which r "THE" places to be seen...it turned out tt he's juz attending a concert on sun...hmmm, perhaps our definitions of party differ? well, i'm a simple leechie...to me, a concert is a concert n a party is a party o.O
Anyway, i excused myself to go outdoors to take pics n left him to enjoy his pasta...which was a relief to me...n while i was happily snapping pics outside, he had to join me n said he came out to enjoy the fresh air...anyway, i was ready to go n told him tt he could stay there if he liked...cos i dont wanna miss the yellow line Sentosa shuttle service...he said we could always walk back if we miss the bus (can u see how cheapo he is???)...well, he forgot tt i'm sick n i had to remind him tt! anyway, i dont fancy walking in some dark places with mr.cheapo n i asked to go! he asked me to wait for him...n he took such a looooooooong time trying to settle the bill...saw him asking abt the items on the bill...well, the staff there have my sympathy...appreciate their patience =)
I went to take more pics of the golf club n he hurried me, saying tt i'm gonna miss my bus...n tried to crack some super duper lame joke...well, i thought i was lame...but apparently, some ppl could outdo me ;p i really dunno how low eq som ppl can get?! -.-" then he started to say stuff abt how couples shld spend more time together...i ignored tt sentence cos we r definitely NOT a couple! but as we were waiting for the monorail to go back to vivo...he went on n said tt we need to talk...abt our relationship n if i want to continue our relationship...excuse me, since when was i in a relationship with him???!!! how could i possibly be in a relationship and me being totally unaware???!!! someone really has super duper hyperactive imagination...too muchie baseless assumptions on his part! i dont even have much stuff to talk to him...guess he could sense the awkward silence (he kept asking me to relax n dont b so tense...well, perhaps he was unaware tt he's the reason for tt?)...think i have more stuff to chat with many of my other guy frenz! he got mad tt i had to rush off...i was like...do i need ur permission to go home? WTH...who the hell does he think he is? nobody owns a leechie n i dont need to report where i'm going to n with whom...i'm a free spirit n i ♥ my freedom too muchie! marcus was right...there r some guys tt shldnt even be considered...even if all the men in the world r dead! n mr. cheapo falls into this particular category!!!
Right place...right ambience...right food...but wrong guy!!! life is soooooo ironic...the one tt u like dont fancy u...yet the one tt u detest bugs u! -.-" but i guess the blog entries on mr.cheapo do help the guys better understand what NOT to do!
