A quick update

2011-11-29T23:35:00.010+08:00

It has been almost 1 year since we last update this space!

Just a quick update,

We have finally bought our love nest, Belvia! It was a fairly easy decisio

n for both of us as we have not been very lucky in balloting for BTO in the east and central area. So when we got Q no. 96 for this DBSS project, we decided that we have to get it although the price is slightly on the high side :(

Can't wait to get the keys in 3 years time!

We also did a photo shoot with "oh dear photography" to celebrate our 5th year anniversary. It was a casual shoot and we were happy with the results:)

Xmas BBQ 2010

Venue: East Coast Park & Bedok Ave 3

The weather was kind of terrible as it rained a few times while we were BBQing in east coast. My first time holding umbrella while BBQing :( Decided to move to baby's house to continue our xmas gathering to avoid the rain! Thanks for helping to cook the food my love! The crab meat was delicious:) Ended the night with Xmas exchange and yummy log cake.

Baby's 27th birthday celebration

Starts with a homemade breakfast delivered from the west early in the morning!
Off to a whole day of excitement and adrenaline rush at Universal Studios.

It started to rain. Luckily I came prepared with purple ponchos:)

The most exciting ride offered in US. We went on it for 3 times:) Poor him had to suffer for 3 times! hahaz!

We had lunch at the pizza joint inside US with the complimentary dinning vouchers.
We completed all the rides and show and stayed till 6pm. There wasn't a lot of crowd that day and all the queuing time were reasonable. My conclusion: Hollywood's Universal Studio is still much better than Singapore's. But I am glad that you enjoyed yourself, baby!

We had dinner @ baits & ice-cream @ 7th heaven and went back to US for the fireworks display. We managed to grab the first row to view the fireworks. It was amazing! I have never enjoyed watching fireworks like this before! It was definitely worth the wait:) A perfect way to end the day. I hope you enjoyed yourself too, my love!

Another part of the birthday celebration is a 7 course dinner @ Tao's.

The meal was definitely worth the money spent. We were so impressed with their service that we gave them tips at the end of the dinner.

2010-10-14T21:14:00.002+08:00

Our second collection is now launched:)
Although both poster done by me, but I personally like the first poster more.

My 23rd Birthday Celebration

My love had planned a "Surprise" BBQ celebration for me below my block. Although I have knew about it quite long ago, I really enjoyed myself throughout the night. Thanks to all of you who came specially down to celebrate my birthday with me. It was an opportunity to catch up with each other after we start our new phase of life. Special Thanks to Min Yan and Jing ying who travelled all the way down from the east side of singapore to the west:) Not forgetting my dearest dear who helped to collect the keys for the pit and came down early to help out.

My wishlist for the year is completed because of all of you. I love it!My new Ray Bans spectacles, one of the present from my love:) My dearest dear likes it too!

All this is possible becos of you, my love. 100% for your effort at preparing all the BBQ food yourself, planning the BBQ surprise and not forgetting your always creative birthday card. You always made me feel that I am special :) Thank you!

This marks the start of another phase in life...

Bangkok trip

2010-09-06T22:42:00.006+08:00

Our Bangkok Trip 2010!

First time departing from budget terminal. Budget terminal is really budget. No much decorations and furnishing is kept to the minimum. We had Mac Breakfast before we enter the gate as we thought there won't be any food inside. But we were wrong! There are quite a lot of cafe and restuarant inside.

The flight on Air Asia is almost similar to Jetstar. But I hate the part where we had to board the plane by climbing the flights of stairs. It is even worse during our return flight to Singapore. Imagine us with our large and heavy hand luggage. I will definitely choose Jetstar next time!

We took a cab at the airport to our hotel. The taxi system at the airport has changed to be more systematic. Taxi drivers can no longer hack up the price now. They have to charge us according to meter and we were even issued a receipt. This time, we stayed at Baiyoke Boutique Hotel. Loved the hotel room, service and location. Definitely value for money!

Our first destination: Platinum Mall.
We had our late lunch cum dinner at the food court which serve yummy Thai food. My favorite fried sukiyaki and his favourite Phad Thai. We also added a fried rice with crabmeat which turned out surprisingly good:)

We ended the night with our super cheap ice cream from Swensen and he ordered room service, Phad Thai with orange juice at 99 baht only. We were disappointed with Suan Lum night bazzar, touristy night market selling fake imitations.

Rise and shine for our breakfast buffet at our hotel. Nothing fantastic about the breakfast. They serve similar food every single day! No pancakes! Very oily bacon! The ventilation in the cafe is so bad that we will smell like our food after breakfast everytime.

Cooling dessert on hot and humid day is heavenly:)
We spent day 2 and 3 at Chatuchak Market. This is the first time we conquered all the relevant section in this large weekend market. A sense of satisfaction! We also explored union mall that is nearby. It is quite a good place to shop with a lot of small indivdual shops. But most of the shop owner does not know how to speak English and there is not much bargaining allowed.

We went back to T & K seafood again for our seafood feast. We ate like king and queen. Apart from the fried rice, everything is fantastic. I love my super spicy tom yum soup. He love the stuffed crab. The steamed fish is big and shiok! The fried kang kong is heavenly! Not forgetting our fried prawn with salad cream:)

We bought some local tidbits to bring back Singapore and take-away bird nest as our supper.

We also ate at a ramen joint near platinum and I finally satisfy my A&W waffle and curly fries cravings. The waffle are so yummy, just like the ones I had in USA. If only I could have them everyday.

We planned a nice dinner to reward ourselves from all the walking and shopping. So we decided to go with Eat Me restaurant after seeing all the good reviews on trip advisor. The food and service definitely did not disappoint us. We ordered a rocket salad as starters, duck confetti and grilled Tasmanian salmon as main and flourless dark choc cake as dessert. Prior to the trip, we made a reservation online mentioning that we are celebrating our anniversary. We did not think that they would actually plan a pleasant surprise for us that night. After we finished our main course, we wanted to order our dessert, esp the highly raved sticky date pudding with ice-cream. However, the supervisor informed us that the sticky date pudding was already sold out. He recommended us the flourless choc cake to try. He totally surprise us with this! 100% for the effort to plan the surprise:)

A perfect way to end the night, *if not for the cocktail that you had in the hotel. LOL!*

We spent the last day doing last min shopping at Platinum Mall. Taking a break at Grand Canyon.

We had a very full lunch at Fuji Japanese Restaurant located on the same level as the food court. The food was only average. Singapore's jap food is still better.

After a mad rush to do our last min packing at the hotel lobby, we headed off to the airport to carry out our secret mission! All in all, our mission is considered successful with a bit of luck and help. We tried to satisfy my last Thai food craving at the airport. Finally I get to eat mango with sticky glutinous rice and green papaya salad. Yummy!

Thank you baby for all expenses paid for trip:) I also want to thank your muscular arms for carrying all the shopping bags and luggage:)
I Love You!

Valentine's Day

The morning started off with a small surprise.

Mac delivery, the new deluxe breakfast.

Next, we went for a movie at Cathay, Valentine's Day.

A bouquet of handmade rose! Simply gorgeous!

Then to our next destination. "Best of both world!" not exactly a very helpful clue!

His gift for me. He knows I loved balloons:)

My gift for him. I love the box:)

He prepared dinner. Lemon fish wrap, wasabi mayo chicken wrap, salad, salmon sashimi and choya honey lime with aloe vera:) We ate on the bed while watching movies. Ultimate shiokness!

Thanks for planning such a special day for me. You have proven to me wrong once again!

Chinese New Year

A reunion steamboat dinner at baby's house!
Looking forward to collecting ang baos and my valentine's day surprise!
Enjoy the holidays, ppl:)

Brain full of shit

2010-01-25T21:32:00.002+08:00

Standing at a crossroad at this point in time, I am in a quandary as to pursue my interest and my ultimate goal of financial freedom, or to stick to the well treaded path that most would have gone through growing up and aging in this cosmopolitan society.

I am truly disorientated right now, losing my focus and wanting to pursue too many goals, but with too little time. I have been wanting to invest in stocks, study the Foreign Exchange in details and at the same time seeking advancement, juggling all these goals while going through my day job. I have tried and failed terribly in attempting to achieve all these goals at the same time, realising that I have achieved very little over these few months and cannot even be considered a jack of all trades with the shallow knowledge that I current possess.

I feel the time has come for me to decide on 1 path and deep down inside, I feel that I have the answer, but the need to conform to society norms and certain responsibility is holding me back.
What should I do?

2010-01-24T23:13:00.003+08:00

There is two new restaurants that is worth checking out.

The first one is Wild Honey. A must try for ppl who loves breakfast as much as I do:) A nice cosy cafe which serves international breakfast. Though the price is a bit steep, but there aren't many places that serves all day breakfast in Singapore.

It is located at Marina Gallery and I went there with JY after school. We had the canadian breakfast ( pancakes with maple syrup and raspberry sauce with crispy bacon) and European breakfast (egg benedict's on toast with parma ham).

The next one is Kimochi located at Vivo city. A causal Jap salad and sandwich cafe. It is very value for money and the serving portion is huge. They even serve free soup with every salad or sandwich purchased. A healthier dining choice.

This weekend.
Monday blues :(

2010-01-18T21:59:00.002+08:00

Last weekend

I love it!

2010-01-05T00:16:00.002+08:00

Feeling rather emotional these few days
Never knew that I would miss someone so much
Because it is YOU!

2010-01-02T16:28:00.005+08:00

Let's start Year 2010 with a blast!

This year's countdown is spent with just him by my side.

After dinner at Ichiban, we stroll down Esplanade and listen to the live band that was performing there.

Look at the difference in our photography skills below. Hee:)

Us with Singaporean's new year wishes!

Then we hang around @ Starbucks while waiting for the fireworks to start. We were smarter this year round, considering we were waiting in a comfortable environment, with nice armchairs and green tea latte.

We started to head over to Esplanade to wait for the fireworks around 11pm, only to realise that the road from Marina Sq to Esplanade was blocked. So we stayed at Marina Sq instead to catch the beautiful firework with hundreds of other ppl.

Of cos, new year countdown is never a celebration with getting stuck in jams and reaching home very late. We were stuck in the Marina Sq car park for more than 1 hour this year. At least, there is still music and air-con!

Ending off with our FAV photos of the day!

My favourite picture of the day!

Of cos this is his pick!

While I am typing this post, He is probably shopping at Shilin Night market now. That's right, my baby left for Taiwan with his family this morning. It would be one whole week without him by my side. I am already hoping that next Sunday comes sooner.

2010-01-02T15:45:00.005+08:00

Christmas BBQ 2009
Location: Pasir Ris Park

People attending: NUS chemist + my loved one

Christmas gift exchange

Most ppl dislike Christmas gift exchange. But I loved it a lot. I like the surprises and the joy of shopping for them and receiving them. Though most of the time it would be something totally useless, but I still like it:)

There is no better way to celebrate the Season of Joy, other than with the ppl you loved.

2009-12-22T21:36:00.004+08:00

We went to do some last minute Christmas shopping in town last weekend. We started shopping at 3 plus and ended at 9 plus. Total 6 hours of non-stop shopping in my heels. My legs were protesting at the end of the night. The sacrifice for being vain:)

Getting ready in my house before heading the town. I combed my hair into a Japanese bun.It was a challenge esp when i have such fine hair. I need to backcomb my hair lots and lots of time to make big hair so that i can have big bun! I told him that and he said he 大包are more expensive! - _-"

My big Japanese bun achieved with lots of hairspray and bobby pins. My bun stayed intact throughout the whole night :)

Dinner at Aoba Ramen at Ion Orchard. It was one of the lousiest ramen I have ever eaten. Totally not worth the wait! The ramen tasted like those fat yellow noodle which I hate!

Almost half bowl of noodles left. Yucks!

Some photo-taking with this year Christmas lighting. My favourite this year would be the huge Christmas tree outside Ion Orchard:)

After that, we headed to The Cathay just because I wanted to get my Alvin and Chipmunks plush. Cathay is having a promotion now. If you purchase two Alvin and Chipmunks ticket plus its combo, you could get the plush for free. So ended up with a popcorn combo at 11pm when we are not catching any movie that night. Haha!

So cute! They have two other set of plush with Simon and Theodore. Too bad, I won't be able to collect them all. Can't wait to catch the movie on Saturday!

P.S: We have applied for the Dawson flats in Queenstown. Hopefully, we would be able to get a good queue no so that we can have our loof unit. Then that would be awesome!

Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

2009-12-18T22:00:00.002+08:00

Last sunday: a long drive to JB with his family and relatives. It was pretty tiring but it ended well with a statisfying seafood dinner at a pretty popular kelong seafood place. Weekend is here again:) Going for some christmas shopping and photo-taking of the pretty Christmas lightings in town. I adore Christmas, the merry merry Christmas...

Enjoy the weekend~

2009-12-06T19:49:00.004+08:00

I can't wait for Alvin and chipmunks 2 to be shown on the cinema! They are just so adorable!

He looks just like Simon. Cute, I like:)

2009-10-19T20:27:00.002+08:00

My baby has been very sweet to me lately, so I decided it is time to give him a surprise too:)

I prepared a picnic spread just for him!

We went Marina Barrage to celebrate our anniversary cum mid-autumn festival.

With my self-decorated cake:)

Though it was drizzling, but we managed to find a comfortable spot to enjoy our picnic!

We caught a movie, 500 days of summer, at Cathay with Min Yan and headed to Heaven's Loft to chill out. It was a nice place to sit down and have a heart to heart talk with your close one. Looking forward to our next month outing with our favourite dessert wine:)

Dinner at Ichiban Boshi. I finally completed their rewards card and guess what did I spin in the end? The lousiest prize! Only another card of 3 new stamps:( Better luck next time!

Met up with Veron to update each other of our life. Initially, we reserved a place at Helipad but it was too noisy for our liking. We decided to head over to Indochine at Clarke Quay.

To satisfy my craving for Korean food, We decided to head over to Iluma for some Korean cuisine. Something different, but we both feel it is not worth the price.

Then it is dessert time! Highly recommend this place. No GST and service charge. Their milk tea ice cream is a must try. Not the usual teh tarik flavour. It taste like drinking earl grey tea with milk. Yummy:)

2009-10-08T20:22:00.005+08:00

MY BABY'S 26th BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION!

The celebration did not start according to my plan. "Sotong" me have forgotten to bring my passport! I have always thought that my passport was in my bag. Luckily, I have decided to check once again b4 I leave baby's house. I thought I have lost my passport but thank god I called home and it was in my house! Thanks to my dad for taking a cab down to pass it to me:) We only managed to reach the boarding gate b4 it closed!

On board the ferry...

We finally managed to reach the resort after such an eventful morning!

We decided to explore the resort...

After that, we headed back to our room for some pizzas and....

A surprise birthday cake. Thanks to the resort staff for the cake and wonderful birthday song!

After a swim, we headed for our 3 hr of spa pampering.

Then it was time for our late dinner @ A1 seafood. We were cheated by the cab driver and the 2 way cab fee cost us S$40 in total. That was even more expensive than our dinner!

Then, we headed back for a good night rest and fell asleep watching channel U. Yes, there is S'pore television channel programme over at Batam.

The next day after breakfast at the hotel lobby, we headed off to Nygoya Hill shopping mall. There was absolutely nothing to shop over there! It was a waste of our time.
We managed to squeeze in 2 game of bowling b4 it was time for us to catch the ferry back to Singapore.
Back at Vivo City, we met up with his parents for a sumptuous dinner. It was fine dinning in Chinese cuisine.

I am glad you like the surprise that I planned specially for you, my love! I bet both of us would never forget about this celebration, esp when it was so eventful! Another destination to be added to our travel journal:)

My Birthday Celebration!

2009-09-29T10:53:00.002+08:00

Had a great weekend last week as my baby planned my surprise birthday plan:)

Didnt know what to expect until Saturday morning when my baby told me we were going out of town! It was really a wonderful experience, with slight cock ups along the way making the whole event even more memorable! Haha.

Just before we left my house for harbour front, baby found out that she left her passport at home. Thankfully, her dad was able to bring it to harbour front for us:) But we only just managed to board the ship in the nick of time before the gate closes. It was then that I knew that our destination is BATAM!
We arrived at batam and was greeted by the friendly staff at the resort with drinks and face towels. It was really a nice place with lots of interesting things to do(^.^)
We did lots of stuff in these 2 days. Swimming, archery, BB gun, bowling, spa, sumptous dinner.. just to name a few!

Baby spent a bomb planning this trip and I was really touched by all her effort!
Thanks baby!

The photos are with my baby, so keep a lookout for them soon:)

2009-09-14T00:48:00.004+08:00

A birthday dinner cum sabotage @ hard rock cafe with Veron and JY

2009-09-06T12:28:00.002+08:00

Anyway, this is a short post after such a long long time. I wanna recommend two dining place.

Firstly, Swee Choon Dim Sum. It is somewhere near Little India. Dim Sum there is famous and cheap! Their specialty is their Mee Sua Cake. Go try if you have the chance:)

Next, it is Cafe Hacienda @ Dempsey Rd. A new addition to Dempsey Rd. It is a cozy dinning place with good food and excellent service. Wanted to try their brunch menu, but we came at the wrong timing. Nonetheless, we still enjoyed our romantic dinner together:)

The closest substitute for breakfast we could find.

We love their pizzas!

A sweet ending to our meal.

P.s: Thanks to everyone for your birthday wishes! Will blog about my birthday celebration soon.

2009-08-20T23:45:00.005+08:00

My birthday wishlist:

1. Pretty laptop bag/case

2. Sato Hakubi White C pills

3. Pretty hairbands with flowers or ribbon:)

4. Liese Bubble Hair Color Marshmallow Brown or Sweet Pink from watsons

5. Ang baos for me to buy more clothes:)

Hope this list will help:)

2009-08-15T11:45:00.002+08:00

Last Weekend!

I had a BBQ cum steamboat gathering at yen lin's place with my sec friends. The last time we had steamboat at yen lin's place was 8 years ago during cny! It was fun to have such gathering esp with all the delicious food prepared by her dad. We sat aound the table talking about our sec school days and trying to recall who are the rest of the people in our class. Although we have all grown but I am gald that we still have not lost touch with one another.

My weekend spent with baby!

We shopped around bugis area and he bot his shirt and pants from the G2000 sales. There was nothing that I want to buy so we went to try our luck at the UFO machines in illuma. We caught these 3 soft toys for 30 bucks! Haha.. we are getting more pro in it. My house is slowly being filled with more and more of these cute stuff toys! My mum is not happy at all! lol!

This extremely talented man caught the dog with $2 bucks and the turtle with $4 bucks:)

Finally, it is the weekend again. Waiting forward to the meeting him later. But for now I need to go to the gym first. All the tea break in school is feeding me too well. Enjoy ur weekend!

2009-08-06T21:41:00.003+08:00

A lazy saturday brunch at cafe beviamo @ tanglin mall. Heard lots of good review about the place and we decided to give it a try. It wasn't fantastic but i won't mind coming back again to try out the rest of the menu. We find the distance between tables too near each other for any privacy. Nonetheless, the service was pretty good and price is decent too.

This is the brunch we ordered.

Lastly, their humming bird cake. Unique flavour and definately worth the price.

Met my baby for dinner in town for dinner at Ion. We went to the try out Watami, the first outlet in Singapore. Their price is very reasonable and food is quite good (but you must choose the right dish). A no no is their Ishiyaki.

Going to school tml for safety training. Looking forward to the weekend!

Soccer Tournament!!

2009-08-04T20:29:00.005+08:00

Throughout my "professional soccer career" for the past 14 years, I have joined countless soccer competition but won none. Just when I thought I will never get a piece of silverware in my colourful soccer career, I was able to finally get my hands on the long coveted BEDOK T-NET OPEN CATEGORY runner-up trophy when I signed a contract with team HUAT AH.

Report by SoccerBall369:
Touted as the underdog of the tournament, the hastily formed team was widely tipped to finish the tournament win-less. With many more skillful teams like Bedok United and Marine Terrace CSC Club, the line-up of Team HUAT AH pales in comparison on paper.
And true enough, Team HUAT AH started the tournament with a loss in the first game to Macpherson FC by 1-2 and was dumped in the loser's bracket straight away. Even with their odds increased to 100-1 to win the tournament, book makers are not receiving any bets for HUAT AH to win the tournament.

However, as their name suggests, HUAT AH started to "huat" a little and won their next game 1-0. Building on their luck, they played from strength to strength, defeating few hot tournament favourites, with Eunos CSC and Bedok United, 2 of the biggest casualties to their cause. Special mention to their goalkeeper who managed to keep clean sheets throughout the tournament except for the final!
Their brave surge were only halted in the final by the Tournament favourite, Marine Terrace CSC Club.
That said, Team HUAT AH can be proud of themselves by beating all expectations and achieve a respectable first runner-up position.
Below are the few photos taken by Soccerball369. Enjoy!

The starting line up plus the act cool "manager"

The tournament's first runner-up is born!

I have finally fixed the photo uploading problem on my blogger.

Finally able to upload all my photos!

Belated Celebration for Veron!

I went to catch Harry Potter with my dearest dear at Cathay! I remember watching the first few Harry Potter with her many many years ago. I think it is still a money worth movie to catch but there is not much to be raved about:)
Afterwhich we went Swensen for their 1 for 1 lunch treat! We meet some "interesting" manager over there.

New Stuff!!

2009-07-16T21:01:00.002+08:00

This post is long overdue especially with my baby so active posting(^.^) Nothing have changed since anyone last met me. Im still working at the same place, living at the same place and look the same, maybe a little older from the lack of motivation that revolves round my work life now.

Been thinking about changing the way things are now, and perhaps dive into the unknown realm of change. Things might evolve for the better or worse for that matter, but the key is change. Content breeds complacency and that is what Im heading for subconsciously. If I continue to linger, I might lose any courage to push for change that I currently still desire for. Those who know me will know the thinly veiled message in this paragraph and I hope the change comes sooner than later!

Will keep all of you posted once I achieve that!

On a lighter note, Baby just got me a pair of new soccer boots!!! Absolutely loved it! Im keeping it in the box until my old pair completely wears off.

Let you catch a glimpse of it before I wear it:)

Its a beauty!

2009-07-14T01:55:00.008+08:00

A meet-up with my girlfriends for a Saturday brunch at Oomphatico's in Tanglin Mall.

Nice environment + nice envieonment = Enjoyable time!

Congrats to Jac who have started on her first official job.

Till we meet up next time...

Sunday was spent at Goodwood Park Hotel for high-tea. We settled for L'esspresso after hearing all the good reviews about it. $33++ per pax with two drink. I love their earl grey tea. It is refillable and i think the sugar syrup complements it very well! But i was a bit disappointed with the choice of variety served, it would be better if there is a bit more:)

Nonetheless, i love the time spent with them. Chatting, eating some cakes, sipping tea and enjoying the piano performance.

Watching Harry Porter with Shu Xian tml! No more lab pls!

A cool and relaxing trip to The Highland, Genting!

We took the night bus to at 9.30pm in Singapore and reached Genting at 3.45am!

We like the cooling weather and fresh air in the high altitude.

We went straight to queue up to get our "no." for the check-in queue. We got No. 30. Check-in was only possible after 12pm, which means we had to wait for 8 hours b4 we can get our hotel room. We wander around and settled for breakfast buffet at 6.30am at the Resort Cafe.

We didn't eat much because it was too early and i do not have much appetite and his stomach aren't feeling too well. But we still managed to stay there till 9am by talking, playing and eating:)

After which we slowly strolled back to first world hotel to rot till 12pm!
After getting our room, we went straight to bed and slept till 5.30pm.

Then we headed for our second meal of the day and then we went straight to the casino in hope of winning so money! Unfortunately, luck was not our side and we lose around Rm 250.

The next day, we went for some KTV! Although i am never a fan of singing, i love to hear him sing:) And he finally get to really listen to my "amazing" singing! Their K lunch was so cheap! Less than S$10 for each person with meals and drinks included!

We caught Ice Age 3 at the cinema. Movie and popcorn was very cheap too. Only Rm11 per movie ticket. Super worth it! If only Singapore's cinema is that cheap.

We did minimize our lose to around Rm 150 for the two days which was not too bad, considering the amount of time we spent in the casino. We both come into conclusion that we should gamble in the afternoon period where lady luck is shinning upon us.

Overall, it is a fun and relaxing trip which didn't cost us too much money. A good place to go if you want to get away from Singapore for a short while.

Anyway last week marks the end of our dance lesson in Tango and Jive. We have completed the elementary class. It was definitely something that we enjoyed doing together. I think he might be even more enthusiastic about dancing than me:)

Looking forward to more dance lesson with you! Next time we shall join the mini competition!

We shall create more beautiful memories together!

2009-07-04T02:02:00.000+08:00

Going for a short getaway:)

Will be back on tuesday night!

2009-06-26T21:43:00.004+08:00

The long and awaited BHSP gathering.

That is 15 years of friendship and counting...

With Su Lian, my Pri Sch Bestest Pal!

On our way to Marina Barrage for the Cold Storage Family Day.

Lots and lots of ppl and the cheapo us went for their free goodies!

Popcorns, Candy Floss, Free Lunch, Goodies Bag, Free Kite, Wii Games....

Us enjoying our free lunch in our car, escaping the hot weather:)

A dinner outing to Suntec Kenny Rogers after a trip to school to find the Prof JJ. Finally the three of us managed to find a Prof for our honours year project. Hopefully we made the right decision. The first meeting with him was quite good, maybe becos he find us very persistant:) Dreading the FYP next sem, but luckily i got two good friend by my side.

Afterwhich, we went for dessert choc fondue at Billy Bombers. The three of us share the $12 fondue and they gave us 2 $15 disc voucher? hahaz...

The couple went Iluma after our dance class.

We tried our luck at the acrade again in attempt to chiap some soft toys. This time round the hero is me:) I managed to win this.

Afterwhich we went to meet his army buddies for dinner at Ebiboshi.
And dessert is at Cheeky Choc. I absoultely love their dessert there. It is so yummilicious!

Esp this warm choc cake. It is the best i have tried so far. The hot choc fudge really oozed out of the cake. But it is a pity that the portion is so small.

And finally we really went to the night safari after celebrating Father's Day with his family at some chinese restuarant in the east.

All the photos were taken without flash as flash photography were not allowed to protect the animals. My camera were set at ISO 3200 the quality is not too bad right?

A tram ride is a must if you are planning to go night safari.

2009-06-13T00:19:00.005+08:00

This is my new toy!

I absolutely adore the sexy RED colour!

The design is so chic and slim.

I shall say bye bye to my Casio Ex-Z70.
(any one interested? Willing to let go for $100 bucks.)

No more blurry photos and lousy night modes.

I love this present from YOU!

Some photos from JY's birthday celebration. This is the first time i wish someone so many times Happy Birthday! Hahaz.

Part1 ...

Dinner was at The Central, Mr Curry. They guys think the curry ramen tasted like Mee Robus. I think it taste quite okay. But dun try their desserts, you will regret!

Afterwhich, we headed to Clarke Quay to chill out @ Azukibar. Free flow champagne for the ladies. But the latin music and crowd is definately not suitable for us.Part 2 of the celebration...

Zicara, Rebel and Lunar.

There is an ongoing promo, pay one entry fee of $15 for these 3 clubs. We also open a bottle of chivas that day as we were out to kill JY. Our evil plans succeed:)

Part 3...

Picnic @ marina barrage. It was an evening full of fun and laughter. Frisbee and kite flying. And a whole lot of photo takings...

2009-06-05T17:03:00.002+08:00

Let me start by telling you the tale of 2 big fat sotong!

Sotong No. 2 saw online of this great singapore sales promo of 50% off admission fee to Night Safari. So she very excitedly told Sotong No. 1 about it. So the two excited sotong decided to go since sotong is not found in zoo. Sotong No. 1 decided to go on Saturday but B4 that they decided to go shop and have dinner at Bugis.

Dinner was at Ebiboshi @ iluma, a new concept Japanese Food Place. They have a wide variety of food there. Our highly recommended dish is their Ramen. Yummy! They are having opening promotion now till end of this month. $10 Voucher with every $20 spent.

Oh did i mentioned that they have waitress in Japanese maid uniform:) But they dun allow me to take photos with them.

Can't wait to go back for their ramen and try other food items too. But we would give dessert a miss. MOF dessert is still the best so far.

Okay back to the tale of the two sotong. Due to the great singapore sales, Sotong No. 2 was having a great time shopping till they figure out that it was too late to go to Night Safari that day. They decided to go tml instead. When they reached home, Sotong No. 2 took out the discount coupon and exclaimed to Sontong No. 1 : " Heng, we never go today lei. The promo starts on 1st June! Hahaz... We are so lucky!"

So the next day, they went The Cathay for dim sum to celebrate his mom's birthday, went home to slack and then headed out to Tampines 1 for dinner. This time round both sotongs were determined that nothing is going to stop them from their night safari trip.

After their unsatisfying meal at F.I.S.H and camwhoring with her newly bought cap, they headed off to then night safari!

" We are going to the zoo zoo zoo. How about you you you? You can come too too too. We are going to the zoo zoo zoo!"

Presenting to you the two excited big fat sotongs. Still dun get the picture?

They queue up to get their admission ticket. When it is their turn, they proudly presented the discount coupon to the cashier. The cashier took a look at it and turn to look at us. She said: " I am sorry, but this promotion starts tml, 1st of June."

It then dawn upon them that it is only the 31st of May that day. They look at each other and appologise to the cashier. The two disappointed sotongs walked away.

The end!

2009-05-28T15:21:00.006+08:00

The Nan Hua gang went to the mind's cafe this time round. It was a nice catch-up session with them. Our 8 years of friendship and still counting...

Me and Yu xuan

Karen and Danying

Their Happy Hour was a great deal. I drank like 4 glasses of Ice green tea and 4 hours of board game at only $6 bucks (tax inclusive).

Some of the games that i like!

The Big Taboo. Interactive and fun with the purple monster. It think it is a monster. Dy say it is a monkey. Hahaz...

Snorta, We had a fun time coming out with long and weird sound for our memories. Yx fare really badly at this.
Express it: Testing your acting and drawing.Telepaths: A great game to test your "Mo Qi" with ur friends.

The four of us headed off to meet Yi Jun who just ended work for dinner.

At Hot Tomato

Me and Yi Jun.

After shopping around ps, went went to Monster Ice for some desserts.
We ordered their "Ren Qi Shang Pin", this always works:)

The durian puree is nice. It has been Zillion years since i last touched durian.

That all for the night. Meet up real soon again. I miss all the laughters with guys:)

P.S: I am having a tenant for two weeks in my house:)

My baby in Genting~

2009-05-23T23:43:00.001+08:00

My baby is currently in Genting and going on a high roller lifestyle! Haha. That explains why I am blogging on a saturday evening when I should have been out with her. Sigh. Its only 2 days and I am missing her already... But the good news is that she will be back tml! Lets hope she wins lots of money this trip!

Looking forward to your return baby(^.^)

2009-05-19T21:46:00.002+08:00

Kallang Leisure Park ( Ice-skating)

This is the second time we went ice-skating together. I still remember the last time we went ice-skating is a few years ago. When we were still working in Starhub and not dating each other yet. That was his first time trying ice-skating. While I have already tried for several times but still only manage to learn how to "walk" on the ice. I am really bad at things that require balancing, like how i managed to learn how to ride a bicycle at the age of 21. Hahaz! This time round is no exception, he was the one who taught me how to ice-skate although it was his second time. And the end result of this ice-skating lesson is two HUGE bruises on my calf of the size of two 50 cents coins each and a huge blister on his sole.

P.S: I am going to Genting on a short getaway with my parents this Thursday night. Time to win some money for my holiday spendings. I am getting broke with no job and income this holiday:(

2009-05-18T18:45:00.004+08:00

Farewell to Eileen who is going to Canada!

We had a dinner at Shokudo. We ordered really a lot a lot of food until i am too full for dessert which is very rare! I will miss you girly:) Remember to take more photos!

This is my mother's day gift to my mum! I put it by her bedside so that she could see it when she wake up. She is super duper happy that day. She love my peanut butter cookie. I made it for her cos she is such a loyal peanut butter fan.

Random outing with my beloved Jy. We headed to gym for a workout b4 indulging at MOF.
She found a job so quickly, if not we can go out more often:(

Dinner with the chemistry ppl @ Shokudo again! Actually it is suppose to be Mabel's birthday celebration. But she suddenly got something on and had to leave.

They are having 15% disc for UOB card on weekdays for the branch at Hereen. And the dessert store outside serves quite good mango ice! But dun try the green tea with red bean.Afterwhich, some of us headed to butter factory at one fullerton. Have been wanting to go since their move, and there is free flow till 1 am for both sexes. But the queue is madness. We reach ard 10.05pm and the queue was already so long. The girls managed to enter at ard 11.30pm and the guys at 12pm. Then we have to go in and queue again for the drinks. The music was okay but i still prefer Phuture.

The ladies while queuing up.

Enjoy your trip to US, girl! Take care!

2009-05-15T12:31:00.002+08:00

We woke up bright and early to see the sunrise on our last day.

Then we headed over to the Mediterranean for our breakfast buffet. I like Breakfast!

Then it was time to make some last min winnings and change back the chips. We both tried playing blackjack with the banker. But i guess it is not our forte. We managed to recoup back from casino war:) So in the end, we both loss 10 bucks each. Hahaz!

Then we headed for our lunch at the Pavilion. We almost missed our lunch time and there is a long queue outside the restaurant. Luckily, we were one of the last few to be allowed inside.

We explored the gigantic ship one last time and by the time we had already reached habour front. Then we went to the arrival waiting point at the Lido.

Bye Bye Star Virgo!

2009-05-12T23:56:00.007+08:00

Our morning begins with a dim sum breakfast @ The Pavilion.

Then it is time for some sun bathing on by the pool.

I love this photo, so natural and happy! All thanks to the photographer:)
The sun was scorching and we did not stay long. After which, we headed back to our room to clean up and it was time for lunch. Yes, we eat again! Hahaz...

Getting ready to go for lunch!
At first we plan to go to the Pavilion for some Chinese food, but after sensing that i am very interested in the wonderful dessert from Bella Vista, baby forgo his Chinese cuisine.

I love the apple pancake with vanilla ice cream & strawberry sauce:)

After lunch, we have reached Redang!

We were transfer to a smaller boat to go to the shore of Redang. It was so much bumpier, Star Virgo is still the best!

Water is so clear at the beach of Redang. We could see the fishes swimming in the water even without our snorkeling kit on. After collecting the snorkeling kit, we headed straight to the water. We spent a while figuring how to breath under the water with the mouthpiece on. I am proud that i am able to snorke even though i dun know how to swim. Haha! Of cos i grab on to my baby for double protection even though i had my life vest on:) The water was super duper salty! I think the water to salt ratio is 1:1. I swallow quite a mouthful of seawater and my ulcer in my mouth seem to be cured by the salt water.

After an hour plus of snorkeling, it was time for us to board the ship again!
Then i headed to the gym for a 2.4 km run while my lazy baby rest in the hotel room. Then the two hungry and exhausted us headed for the gala dinner, which is a BBQ spread by the poolside. Baby like it, but i think that it is too meaty and oily for my liking.

After dinner, we went to watch some performance at the Lido Balcony. The show were quite lame. It was all put up by the crew on board the ship. But we were impressed by the talents of the crew members. Most of them got great voices and can sing very well.

Afterwards, we headed back to the casino to try our luck again. We managed to recoup back some losses from yesterday. Then we went to the KTV lounge and odered their cocktails. We were allowed to dedicate 4 songs and sing, like an open KTV pub. A lot of interesting events happen there and we were definately amused by it. Of cos the 4 songs were all sang by my superstar and it made me fall in love with him once more. Promise to sing for me forever k?

Thats all for day 2:)

2009-05-11T21:55:00.007+08:00

Happy 3 year anniversary !

Close up on the photo cube made by me:)
Handmade by him. I am so proud of u!

We celebrated our anniversary on board Star Virgo. We headed there straight after my last paper. The queue for the check-in was madness. We reached at around 4.30pm and only managed to board at 5.45pm.

Our small room. The room can accommodate up to 4 person.
Straight after checking in, we headed for dinner. Our first meal on board. At Bella Vista, the only restaurant which requires smart casual dress code.

The lobby with European interior design.

After dinner, we headed for a live singing performance and went to soak in the jacuzzi which was extremely comforting especially on a chilly night. Such a relaxing lifestyle which i heart:)

After shower, we headed out to explore the big ship and we landed up in the library!

When the clock strike 12, it was time for supper! Sinful but delicious.
And guess wad is our next location? Casino! We stayed there till 2 plus and it was time to end the night.

Happy 3 years Anniversary!!!

2009-05-04T20:12:00.004+08:00

2009-04-26T16:36:00.003+08:00

The day after my first paper was ultimate shiokness!!!

We went to shop around in orchard road. It has been a while since we last went there. We bot sunscreen for our cruise trip and i also bot two dresses from cotton on. I am a happy girl when i find good bargains. One of the dress was originally $50:) Then we went to Plaza Sing for dinner and more shopping. Dinner was at Manhattan Fish Market.

We had our favorite combination: Cesar salad, butter garlic mussels with bread and grilled salmon. Yummilicious!

Then is it to my 3 favorite shop in PS: Made with Love, Spotlight and Daiso! I simply cannot get enough of the beautiful patterned papers, ribbons, stickers and assorted decorations. Stay tunned for more of my art work after the exams:)

My next paper which is also my last paper will be on 6 May. After that paper, I will be even more happy! Becos we will be going straight on board the STAR VIRGO to redang. I cannot wait:)

2009-04-24T22:19:00.006+08:00

Introducing my new favourite!

Baby Champion! Isn't he a darling? And baby got it for me with the "kiap kiap" machine, UFO catcher. It is becoming our new hobby. So much satisfaction and excitment when playing. We got our baby champion at only $10. Cheap!

My baby likes to drink green tea too:)
Although you are cute, but my champion is still cuter:)
This is what he does when he is jealous!

One more month to our 3rd year...

My complaint!

2009-04-06T23:04:00.001+08:00

I had just posted a feedback to my telco. Hope to get some feedback soon. Lol

Dear XXXXX,
A few wks ago, I wanted to renew my mobile plan. After being informed of the availability of a corporate plan if I renew under my family member's name, I requested for my line to transferred to his name. However, I was surprised that a $30 administrative charge will be levied for the change. Having a valid reason for the change and being aware that other telcos do not levy this charge, I requested for it to be waived. The request was rejected flat firstly by the shop personnel and then by the customer care service officer which I called to feedback. I was utterly disappointed with the inflexibility displayed in this instance considering that I had been a loyal XXXXX mobile and broadband customer for 6 years. This inflexibility certainly leaves much to be desired. I hope that the relevant dept will look into this matter. tks

I was really angry that day with the case, but I procrastinated till now to write the feedback. Haha. Lets see what their response will be. (^.^)

2009-04-03T22:32:00.002+08:00

We will be celebrating our 3rd year anniversary cruising on the ocean :)

The next 2 week will be hell week for me. Endless of test! Can't wait for exam to be finished!

Magic the Gathering!!

2009-03-29T14:17:00.003+08:00

I have been on a project to convert my baby to join me on my card game for some time and I have finally seen some results! Haha!!

Let the pictures do the talking!

My baby with the victory pose after winning me:(

The formation!

Strategising her next move!

Haha.. I will have one more Magic kaki from now on le! Love ya baby(^.^)

2009-03-20T22:42:00.007+08:00

I just finished my longest day ever in school. Practically from 8 am to 8 pm w/o break! Anyway our Bahasa project was very interesting. I especially like the drama segment. Have a peek into a bit of the Indonesia culture, guys:)

Do you know that Indonesia is the country with the most island? There are 17,000 islands in total!

The traditional costume segment which me and evon are in. Grand and colourful costumes from different parts of Indonesia.

The girl on the right has the grandest costume. The headpiece is super duper heavy.

The musical instruments.

Angklung that brings back so much memories.

Dance segment.

Singing segment.

"enak sekali" food from Indonesia.

P.S: I think all my friends should know that i am addicted to pet society from ur news feed in facebook. Just to show u guys some of my lovely rooms and my pet, "Boo Boo"!

living room

TGIF! Badminton session with my baby tml:) Good night!

P.p.s: I have bot 4 tops online recently. This is not good. Must save money!

2009-03-18T00:07:00.006+08:00

Lots of birthday posts!

I shall start with the most recent one...

Yu xuan and Danying, they are born on the same day!

Dinner was at Bakerzin Jp.

Dinner was pretty good but they have ridiculous rules of no outside cakes allowed to be served in their restaurant. We had to pay $10 bucks if we want to eat them inside. So we headed off to coffee bean.

Pretty cake from the icing room! Green tea with red bean, my favorite combination. But the cake was only so-so. There was so much cream, i hate them.

Their Anna Sui perfume!

Next up, Karen's birthday.

Dinner at Bentocafe JP.

Birthday girl with her Fancl products.

And lastly, Yi Jun's hand-made earings. So pretty:)

And last but not least, the oldest among us, Yi Jun!

Can you see the "OLD"? hahaz:)

Dinner was at Yakiyakibo JP.

Birthday girl with her new bag from charles and keith!

I am the youngest out of the five of us:)
I guess turning 22 does not hold much significant esp after the big celebration of 21st! The next big celebration would be 80th birthday, which i am definately not looking forward to it at all:)

2009-03-16T22:08:00.005+08:00

Mind's cafe at town and we caught "coming soon" at the cathay.

Met my darlings for dinner at Great World City before they went clubbing.

Went to MacRitchie Reservior to complete our tree top walk. We figured out that both of us dun have any sense of direction as we ended up with all the long routes. We completed around 10 km of run cum jog in total.

After the long tiring walk, we rushed over to the supreme court open house. Our first time stepping into that place (not that i am complaining) was really an eye-opener. It is very different from the ones i see in hk dramas. There was enactment of various law trials, i esp like the humpty dumpty case:) hilarious!

P.s: If you are hungry you should look at this http://www.eileendotcom.com/blog/?p=698.

I am so tempted to go for their high tea.

That's all~

2009-03-08T00:57:00.003+08:00

My day out with baby!

We ran out of places to go, so we decided to explore Jurong Central Park! It is quite a nice place to go for a jog or cycle if not for the infestation with XXX!

But the weather was scorching, so we postponed it till the night time:)

We head to suntec to watch "Marley & Me". Nice and touching movie:)

And our attempts to fly the kite failed terribly:(

Salamat Malam! I need to brush up on my Bahasa Indonesia tml!

2009-03-06T22:32:00.003+08:00

We went to the JASON MRAZ concert!

It was our first concert together.

He has such a great voice. It is simply spectacular! But my boy is very disturb by his tight fitting top:)

Let have more of our "VERY FIRST" experiences together in the future!

1 more mid-term paper to study for:)

Life

2009-02-22T21:39:00.002+08:00

Time waits for no man, and how apt this phrase fit my current situation. I was just telling baby that I will be 26 this year, which implies that I can no longer fall under the category of "mid 20s" since technically it would be before 25. And sadly, moving into my late 20s, I have yet to achieve the goals that I have envisioned a few years.
To name a few of those goals, I have always wanted to own a property probably around my current age, have a decent car, a career that is probably en route to management etc etc.
But bringing myself back to earth, I had just kickstart my career, my savings probably land me a steering wheel and perhaps if the car dealer is nice enough, he might throw in the windscreen wiper. Haha.
As you can see, I am no where near my goals and do not envisage myself attaining these goals in the near future, as frustrating as it might sounds. My current job is no doubt interesting and my colleagues are perhaps the nicest bunch possible, but I do not forsee my progression there, not with my current level of experience. So currently I am one of you people out there working 8-5 everyday at a desk bound job with no life. Haha. I need to break out of this cycle!!!

I dun want to be in my late 2os!!!!

My mid term break is here which means half a semester is over. Time flew really in a blink of an eye. This mid term break is studying time. So much things to catch up. Sian:(

I am going for an interview on friday. Hope everything goes well and soon ppl will call me Ms Toh:) Would I regret my decision? I shall leave everything to fate.

Oh ya and we are planning a steamboat next saturday at my place. Anyone wanna join us?

Some photos that we took today...

We went to watch "slumdog millionaire". It was not too bad at all considering it is a bollywood movie. The story is quite touching. Jy, u shld catch it:)

This time round, Valentine's day was a special one. It started with baby coming over to my house and giving me a bouquet of yellow roses and the itinerary of the day.

As you can see the itinerary is all carefully covered so i that i will only know it when the time comes.

The first course surprise.

I was suppose to guess where we will be going for the afternoon. Hints given: we have never tried it b4. Location is in town. I tried flyers, hippo tour, duck tour, etc but i did not get it right.
Then he told me that we we going to the Francis Yip V'day concert. And I actually believed. He is so pleased with himself that day for managing to fool his very smart gf:)
In actual fact, we are going to watch a performance at Esplanada. It is the famous korean dance comedy, "Breakout". I remember mentioning to him very long ago that i think this is worth watching when i saw the ad on tv. I never ever thought that he would actually brought me there.

It was definately worth the watch. There was B box, Hip-hop, Locking and lots of laughter. We were searching for their poster by there were none. So we had to make do with the board below.

After the dance, we took a walk around Esplanada. We saw other loving couples enjoying the scenery like us too. It is a day where u would feel extremely blessed to have ur love ones by ur side.

Afterwhich, it is time for the second course surprise. But b4 that, we did some gift exchange.

I gave him my hand-made cupid v'day card, a pop-art version of our photo and a home-made lemon cheesecake. I feel so guilty for not doing more things for him. You win this year baby!

Me and my roses.
My guess for the second surprise is dinner, which is quite obvious. Lol. It was a Japanese restuarant at The Central. He made the reservation beforehand and so that we could get the window seats. It was definately a rare find. I dun think a lot of ppl know abt this place yet. But it is definately worth the money. We were lucky as there were having happy hour and we got 30% off the bill. Yippee!

Not only that we were also given a free side dish. It is a pink vinegar rice with eggs in the shape of a heart:) Sweet!

While waiting for the food to be served, i irritated baby by taking continuous shot of him. Hahaz...
He did the same. But it did not work on me, cos i love taking photos:)

It was a satisfying meal and the chawanmushi there is heavenly. It indeed melts in your mouth.

Then it is the third surprise at the Nectarie le'Dessert Patisserie

Their signature cake, caramelized banana cake.

Apple strudels

The last surprise is my favourite. I totally do not have any clue where we are going after the dessert. No hints was given this time round. He even made me close my eyes during the journey to the fourth mystery location. During the whole journey, i was so excited to find out where we are going. I keep asking him whether we are there yet. Lol. After he parked his car, he led me to our final destination with me blind folded during the whole time. When the lift opens, I smell a familar scent. It was a kind of new furniture smell. The kind that you would get in hotels. Only then did i realise where our fourth destination is.

My fourth surprise is a night stay at M Hotel. The room was so big! With a king size bed, plasma tv, writting desk, armchair amd a huge dressing table. I love it so much! Baby is so sweet to bring all my stayover stuff over to the hotel room before coming to meet me. He even bought me a face mask and moisturiser. You are the SWEETEST!

It was a romantic night for us with the company of dessert wine and good movie.

The next morning, we woke up to delicious breakfast buffet at the lobby. I love breakfast the most. Omelettes, pancakes with maple syrup, sausages and bacon. They are yummy!

I want to tell the whole world that my bf is the best and no one can replace your place in my heart.

Thanks for making me the happiest girl.

I was going through some of the old photos and i decided to recap on the past few Valentine's Day spent with my baby. The 3 valentine's day was celebrated differently, but they all leave behind beautiful memories for us to treasure.

Our first Valentine's day in 2007. It was a very late pinic at botanical garden with all the yummy food prepared by darling.

Our second Valentine's Day was spent at Labrador Park. It was a nice and relaxing pinic by the river in the evening.Then it is our third Valentine's day together. It was a saturday, so we had the weekends to celebrate:) Love it to the MAX!

Hope u guys enjoyed it as much as we do. Treasure the person by ur side:)

2009-02-15T17:13:00.004+08:00

This is our 3rd Valentine's Day spent together. Thanks for making it the B.E.S.T Valentine's Day I had so far! The day was FANTASTIC! It was a four course surprise that was so meticulously planned out. I shall update on the details some other days.

I must praise my baby for getting more and more skillful in his card making talent. I am so impressed! It is so pretty. It made mine seem so unimpressive when compared to yours:( I will make it up to you next year okay? You sure set the standards way high...

Warning!

The words below may be too mushy. Scroll down at your own discretion.

This is dedicated to YOU.

Baby, I know I am very skeptical about marriage and love. I dun know why. Maybe it is becos of the past relationships that i had and the ppl ard me that i have seen. All the things happening ard me all these while, just make it seem so hard to believe that couples married for 30, 40 years can still be able to love each other the way they did when they first got together. You have proven me that you are able to do that for close to 3 years now. I just want to tell u that YOU are the ONLY one that made slowly believe that LOVE really can last forever if both of us put in the effort to keep the sparks going on. YOU are the ONLY one that made me ever long for the Happy Ending that always happen in fairytales. On this special day, I want to thank you for treating me like a princess all these years. I am starting to belive that I am a really a princess in a fairytale.

Thanks to you, my Prince, my baby...

Happy Valentine's Day

2009-02-14T00:35:00.003+08:00

Feb is the month of LurVe~

I had an enjoyable evening with my baby today. Even though it was a simple dinner and movie, i enjoyed myself. We caught "Benjamin Buttons" at Vivo city. It was a nice movie, catch it if you have the time. It is a very long movie!

Btw, i am so in love with wearing heels recently. Make my legs look longer and slimmer:) Haha! I bot two heels this weekend:) Love them so much! This is so random.

I can't wait for next weekend to come. I dun know wad u are planning to surprise me on that day:) I love surprises!!!

P.S: We joined our first contest together for the first time. Lets cross our finger and hope we can get a camera home:)

2009-02-02T18:10:00.004+08:00

Chu yi was spent visiting baby's relative house.

His cute cousins:) Queena and Jing hui. They were dressed in pretty cheong sam,

Chu er, Baby came over to my house to bai nian. After lunch, we went to sentosa flower festival with my mummy. So many ppl there, wrong choice of day to go.

Yesterday, "ren re". We went to sinma seafood restaurant at Seng Poh Rd to lau yu sheng! Total damage: $250 for the four of us.

Everything on the table was delicious!That all for the welcoming of "moo" year.

Today, i had my lab session as usual. It is interesting to observe ppl in the lab. Hilarious!

2009-02-01T22:43:00.003+08:00

This short post is delicated to my dearest dear, shu xian, who will be leaving singapore tml for switzerland.

We had a short get together at bakerzin jp this saturday.

She is happy with the things i got for her in bangkok:)

We loved their warm chocolate cake, yummy!

After that, we went ard jp to do her last min shopping for her long trip. We explored fairprice extra in search of instant cook mix suitable for her, becos she is so "good" at cooking:) hahaz! we even went long john to "take" some of their chilli sauce. hahhaz.. we are not cheapos k? becos there is no chilli in switzerland and buying a bottle of chilli sauce is just too heavy for her luggage:)

I will definately miss you during this six months. Take care!

2009-01-29T17:57:00.003+08:00

Went to phuture to celebrate Jac's 22nd birthday last friday. That night she claimed that she is 19 this year, hahaz... Happy birthday, Jac. Hope you stay forever young and pretty babe:)

Jy and min yan came down too.

Happy "NUI" year everyone. I did not collect as much ang baos this year becos my uncle is overseas. But thanks to my biggest ang bao contributors, my parents, this year has been a fat fat year for me as well:) Tml shall be my first day going back to school after such a long holiday. Sigh, it shall be a long day for me tml. From 12pm to 6pm continuously. But there is my first Bahasa lesson and cardioaerobics class tml. Excited:) Till then~ ciaos.

2009-01-28T18:40:00.002+08:00

Baby and I went to Marina Barrage over the weekend last week. We had a level of expectation from the photos we saw from fellow bloggers and we were definitely not disappointed. It was brimming with life, literally, as we saw lots of families, like us, checking the coolest reservoir in town. There were also many avid kite fliers, (not covering those that back out on a gathering last min) who carries haversacks full of strings and various kites. Baby and I concluded that they suit different wind conditions.
I really like the warmth the environment exudes. Well, not the kind the sun embraces us with, albeit the kids running around, old folks taking a stroll, couples taking photos, family having a picnic, toddlers frolicking at the fountain area. I guess Im really getting a little old, well, in less that 9 months, I will be in my late 20s!! Haha.
I shall stop here and let the pictures do the talking.. I must leave something for you to explore when you go visit the coolest reservoir in town ya. (^.^)
Cheers..

our pinic food:)

I absolutely adore this changing colour sculpture. We took so many photos here:)

9 interesting facts about marina barrage...

Afterwhich, we headed to esplande max berner for some sweets:)

We try out their chocholate souffle, it was nice! But both of us agree that they could be more generous with their vanila ice cream.

It was an enjoyable weekend spent with my baby... Memories like these are precious!P.S: This post is jointly posted by the both of us. That explain why some of the photos are un edited and not properly rotated. I am sure you guys know who did which right? :)

2009-01-24T00:50:00.007+08:00

4th & last day in bangkok: 12/01/09

We wake up late and skip the breakfast due to the late night the previous night. We packed and checkout of the hotel at 12pm.

We our empty stomach, we headed to baiyoke sky hotel for our lunch buffet. The service at baiyoke sky is excellent, with hotel staff situated at every corner to serve you.

Taking the express elevator up 76th storey...

We reached their tourist exhibition gallery.
Our "san lian pai" :)

Time to fill up our empty stomach... Yummy Yummy!

We think that the selection of food is quite limited but for its view and service i think it is still worth the try...

And we even got free ballons:) I had the doreamon and jy had chicken little.

After that we continue with our photo-taking. It was such a fun place to take photo and no one was there to look at us... Hahaz!

Check out our impromtu shots. Click for a clearer view:)

This is jing ying's classic photo:)

Afterwhich we went to try out golf playing, becos it is so cheap! It was quite an interesting experience. Baby is the pro among us noobs, so he taught us the basics of playing. So li hai!!!

Afterwhich, we went back MBK for foot massage and some last min shopping.

And is it cab back to the airport which cost us only 400 baht.

So sad to say goodbye to bangkok and whole lots of fun and shopping. I will definately miss all the bargaining and tom yam soup. Let's make this a yearly event shall we? we will be back next year:)

Thanks jy and jx for being such a wonderful company throughout the trip.

Thanks baby for carrying all my shopping bags and giving me this all expenses paid for trip. I enjoyed it so much!

I promise to stop buying clothes for another 3 months:)

My waredrobe has been complaining to me.

Good night!

2009-01-22T14:08:00.006+08:00

DAY 3: 11/01/09

Our day started ard 9am with breakfast at the lobby and off we went for a morning stroll to MBK. We were too early and the shopping mall were mostly closed. MBK opens ard 10.30am. While waiting for the mall to open, we took more photos:)

There is seriously nothing to shop at MBK. Everything was so much more expensive. We breeze thru the mall and settled for lunch at their food court. The food court is almost similar to that in platinum mall.

After that we head opposite MBK where there is a whole stretch of shops that resembles our bugis village. Then we headed back to the area opposite of platinum mall which we failed to finish during day 1. It is where we found a lot of cheap buys. City complex and a whole stretch of roadside stalls.

Afterwhich we went to Chinatown to statisfy our hungry stomach:) Our spread for dinner!

The aftermath of all the spicy food for the two guys who can't take chilli :) Red swollen lips and a stomach filled with water.
Now for some funny gay actions by yours truly mr ong.

Poor darling, he didn't know that he is being kissed by him.

The photo below is the funniest. Look at the expression of the lady in the background:)

Then we headed back to our hotel for some rest and got ready for our clubbing night in bkk.

We headed off to Q bar after a few small drinks at the hotel.

We paid for the entry fee which comes with 2 free drinks each. It was a club filled with ang mo and thai girl. It was not a dancing club, more of a thai girls wanting to meet ang mo kind of place. Nonetheless, we had fun by ourselves.

We played the animal game throughout the night. It was fun to see everyones action becoming more and more comical as the rounds continues.

I love going to club with u. You are always there by my side:)

With this we end the very late night of day 3...

2009-01-20T19:05:00.007+08:00

DAY 2: 10/01/09

We wake up early in the morning at 8 am and head down to the lobby for our breakfast.

This is the day we conqured the super huge and crowded chatuchak weekend market. The four of us took the BTS from Ratchathewi station to Mo Chit station. We were blessed with wonderful weather that day too. It was so cooling that day:)

I have been there so many times but never once did i figure out how to navigate around that place. This time round i even downloaded the map in my hp. But it was usless too. But luckily there is baby. The leader of the day is none other than my darling boy. He is always the one telling us where to walk. "Walk this lane first, then later turn right", "Here walk before. Go there." Thanks for being our navigator:) Not forgeting my currency convertor too:) Lol! Although ur service is not always reliable, but it is not too bad considering that it is FOC.

After endless of bargaining and shopping, we settled for late lunch at one of the hawker stall. We tried that signature dessert, mango with sticky rice. It was yummy:)

After lunch it is the continuation of our shopping spree. All of us ended up with even more shopping bags than yesterday. Then we went in search of the pet lane. We had to ask the ppl there how to get there as we were totally lost. Thanks to baby, we finally made our way there. He went around asking the thai ppl: " dog, cat, bird?" I was so happy to see those cute little animals:) They are so so so so adorable! so tiny and huggable! But poor jy, she scream her way out of the place, becos most of the dog and cats were not caged.

When is is around 6pm (close to their closing times), we ended the trip at chatuchak and headed back to the hotel to put down our buys. Me and baby continue on with our plans to the bedsupper club. We had made the reservation in singapore before going there as we did not want to miss the chance of dinning at this ultra cool place. Jy and jx did not join us as they find it too expensive. They went off to chill out at some pub while we started our romantic date in bangkok.
We got the upper deck day bed and baby loved it a lot. We were so thrilled when we entered the place. The blue lighting and the white clean sheets and big fluffy cushion make the whole place so inviting and romantic. There is also a DJ spining downstairs.

As this was the weekend, we were served a special 4 course dinner with a special theme of the night. We arrived around 8 pm and ordered cocktails first while waiting for our dinner to be served. Not forgetting camwhoring to make our memory last.

While flipping thru the magazine we found this interesting article.

Finally, around 9.30pm, our surprise dinner was served. We were served w/o being told wad exactly was the dish. Only after we finished each course, the monitor will flash out the name of the dish. Then we will go "Ahh!" in acknowlegment. All the dishes have very nice names, but i do not remember it anymore.

Our first course: a tomato base soup

Second course: starter - foie gras

This is our first time eating foie gras. As we did not know wad it was when we eat, we were speculating wad it was exactly. i guess that it was duck meat and baby even think that it was luncheon meat. OMG! hahaz... I must say that foie gras taste like meat! I cannot think of a better word to describe.

Third course: Main - snapper fish.

After the main course, we were given a free dessert each. That was definately a pleasant surprise. Warm chocolate shots. Yummy.

Finally, the last course is my favourite dessert. It was definately a unique one. There is crumbles with green apple sauce and coconut marshmallows.

Throughout the dinner, we were being surprised by interesting characters from the underwater world.

And this marks the end of our enjoyable night in bedsupper club. Would i want to come back again. Definately. Although, it is not cheap. But i find the dinner, ambience and service definately worth the money the money that we paid.

Bedsupper club, see you next year!

2009-01-19T23:25:00.005+08:00

It has been a week since we came back from bangkok. I shall blog abt our wonderful trip now. It has been my best bangkok trip so far. I guess i am more and more experience in planning the itineray for bkk :) Sit back and enjoy the trip with us!

DAY 1: 09/1/09

We board our all time reliable jetstar budget flight. It was a morning flight, but we would not let the lack of sleep dampen our holiday mood. The two hour flight passesd very quickly with our camwhoring and psp games:)

We did our must do "XI NU AI LE" on the flight again:)

We landed at the beautiful land of thousand smiles!

Initially, we wanted to try the express bus service which can send us to our hotel. But in the end we settled for the cab as it is only more expensive by 100 baht. The cab fare cost us 700 baht.

We arrived at our hotel, Samran Place. Our second time staying in this hotel. Baby missed the friendly sercurity guard there.

Put down our luagage and we officially started our day 1 in bangkok.

Our first destination: Platinum Mall.

We took a tuk tuk from our hotel there, although it is only 15 min walking distance. We conclude that taxi by meter is a cheaper and safer transportation here in comparison. But who goes to bangkok w/o taking their famous tuk tuk? Definately a cheap thrill:)

We settled for lunch at the food court in the mall. The suki yaki store is delicious, a must try. The good thing is, it is cheap! We shopped continously for 5 hours in the mall. The guys in the group definately did not disappoint the ladies. They walked equally as much as us w/o complaining:)

We saw these cute glasses and can't resist taking a photo with it:)

We took a short break at the swensens located outside the mall. The price there is so much cheaper than singapore. The chocolate fondue we ordered cost only $10 plus:)

When the sun set, we headed back to our hotel with our shopping bags and get ready for our next destination of the day. We headed off to sum lum night bazzar.

We had our dinner at the beer garden with live performance. We ordered tom yam soup, sotong, omelette, veg, fried rice and fried kuay tiao. The food was so so, but cheap consider the amt of food we ordered.
Shopped around for a while at the night market. Nothing much to buy as the prices are generally higher. It was more of leisure strolling and sight-seeing.

But we managed to meet this magician in the market, selling magic tricks. We were all so amazed by his performance. Magic has a way of making ppl go "wow". Baby bought one magic trick from him too. After we knew how it was done, everything suddenly seem so simple. But we shall not let the secret out of the bag. Afterall, we paid for it :)

Then is back to the hotel and end of day one. stay tunned for more updates:)

2009-01-06T23:52:00.016+08:00

Last Sunday, we went on our second ubin cycling together with veron, zx and chee hao. It was also our 32 months anniversary that day too. Baby surprised me with a handmade card and his signature melba toasties :)

And I made him this:)
Off we went to changi ferry terminal...

we reached ubin island. Chee hao does not look like he belong to our grp :)

Our first stop, the viewing tower.

Then we went to the chek jawa mangrove swamp.

Our cycling journey continues after the slight drizzle...

Baby is very proud of the photo below. He wants me to mention that he took it when he was riding... So here is it... hahhaz :)

And came to meet Jack...

Then we went to the mountain bike track, which is not recommended for first time cyclist. The path we took we all very rocky and uneven. Veron also fall during this part of the journey. But overall it was definately an experience:)

The guys perform their bicycle stuns there as well:)

First up is chee hao.

Next is my baby.

And lastly, zong xian.

And our final last stop to see a far away view of the quarry after meeting with a very interesting auntie. Now, we all know that when u are in ubin cycling, only 100 plus can save u:)

Veron, thanks for accompanying me on this ubin trip. It would have been fantastic if not for the fall. Heal well okay. See u in sch next sem:)

Ending this post with my favourite picture of the day:)

Waiting for my baby to finish work and i will be going over to his house tonight becos we are going to bangkok next thing in the morning. WooHoo!!!

Finally the long awaited trip is here. No doubt it is going to be a blast. Good company, shopping heaven and with my love one by my side. I can't wait for tml to come quickly:)

2009-01-04T23:42:00.001+08:00

Happy 2009 everyone :)

We spent our new year at the siloso beach party and it was a blast!

There were a total of six person: us, jason, yg, jun xiang and jy.

After a few rounds of drinking and as 2009 gets closer and closer, our spirits got higher and higher resulting in a lot of crazy poses and unglam photos :0

Cheers to 2009 :) Hope it will be a good year ahead!

2009-01-02T23:14:00.017+08:00

I got a movie to recommend to everyone!

Seven Pounds

It is about a man who wants to change the life of seven person. A absolutely touching movie of a selfless man. Will Smith is such an excellent actor. Watch it ppl!

I cannot wait for my bangkok trip to come!

Friday pls come quickly :)

2008-12-30T21:40:00.007+08:00

There was a green team chalet last week and it was kinda of successful, a lot of ppl turned up and it filled the ntuc chalet room to the brim. Though i dun know most of the ppl there, it was still a nice effort by jason kee :) After the bbq when most of the ppl have left, it was when the real fun begins. We were all super high after playing indian poker with our own set of rules. It was a crazy night with lots of laughter and gay kissing :) I must say sorry to hong wei becos i actually slapped him on his face. It was not on purpose. Sorry. I think i knock out at 6 am and we went for breakfast the next morning at 10am.

I must say i am impressed by own stamina, as we continue the day with acarde, cycling, movie, poker and blackjack until 10 pm when we all return back home.

It was another tai tai high tea session today:)

This time round, it is with veron. At a even more atas place, cova @ paragon. A very nice hang out place with exquiste pastries :)

Pretty:)

royal breakfast tea

Although we won't be taking the same module again next sem, but hope our friendship will continue to grow. Love you, babes:)
