Dim Sum

Tuesday, August 30, 2011 / 4:37 PM

Went to Le Gong @ Grand Park Hotel for Dim Sum with baby and his family. When I say family, is not his parents and sisters but his grandparents, da gu, xiao gu, uncle and cousins. Yea! the whole deal (: We had Dim Sum.. It's yummy unfortunately didn't want to be a retard and snap pictures of all the food that came. But managed to take the dan tart but I haven't uploaded it yet from my iPhone.

I think my mum would like to eat that dan tart its so nice, I wanted to take more but didn't want to be rude. So I had only one. Love the chicken shark fin soup too, it's something different from the normal shark fin soup. I'm still full from lunch~

Off in lieu

Monday, August 29, 2011 / 12:09 PM

There are no monday blues today, as i'm off, took my OIL for polling day. Such a long weekend (: Oh i'm loving it. Don't have to see my people I dislike including the creepy guy in the office, although I pity H she's stuck with him always leering at her. Finally blocked him off Facebook, if not he will keep adding me and seriously I don't even know him.

Baby's on the way back from accompanying his dad to the lawyers, and guess what he's getting me? KOI ♥ and also lunch.. I think i'm a pig or maybe cause i'm really hungry.. feel like eating sushi, noodles and baby's french toast. But I don't think I can stomach all of those, my metabolism rate is not as fast as 10 years ago. I'm becoming fat!

Just had noodles.. really full maybe it's from eating air. Lol! Also finally going out tonight with baby, he's taking me to ichiban sushi for dinner, yums ♥

Mou.. why must that guy come at the wrong time! Dinner time.. why couldn't he like come in the afternoon or something.. geez i'm hungry already baby and I are suppose to go to Toa Payoh Central to eat sushi, I feel like it's going to be packed with people. From 6.45pm till now non stop talking.. Sigh, i'll just eat air~ Maybe get a gastric too. Who cares! I'm just ranting don't mind me~

Bored

Sunday, August 28, 2011 / 7:57 PM

It's going to be a long and boring long weekend for me, as baby needs to do his assignment. So no going out ): although we were suppose to go watch a movie tonight. But we can't now as baby ran in the Adidas King Of The Road this morning, his legs are hurting. That's what happens when you run 16.8km in the morning. Sigh! What should I do tomorrow another day will pass by just like that and nothing productive will be done. Such a dilemma~

Almost R.I.P!

Saturday, August 27, 2011 / 11:24 PM

Baby didn't see where he put his knee and knelt down on my laptop case. = = He went ow! and both of us heard a crack.. There goes my mouse ): He broke it, my mouse has a funny sound because some loose or cracked piece is swimming inside it. But fortunately it still works for now~

No space

Friday, August 26, 2011 / 8:07 AM

How does that make any sense, she kicks up a fuss because I accidentally drip water onto her foot.My normal size seat is not normal. She's taking part of mine and I'm squished next to the pole. Come on the weather today is not o so peachy. It's like raining since I left the house.. = = No space, got this kind of person, rainy weather seriously it's lame to start the day like this. But there's something to cheer me up, baby's buying breakfast from Mc Donalds for me~ HOTCAKES & MILO (:

/ 12:42 AM

I'm so lucky (: to have great friends like Naz in the office. She came to my table with goodies (Hari Raya snacks) plus I must say they're so delicious. I could just go over to her table and eat them all up, especially the sugie biscuits. They just awesomely melts in your mouth, so love it!

My first breakfast! Before I had my carrot cake (: Oh the yummy goodness!

First time..

Thursday, August 25, 2011 / 11:44 PM

There's always a first for everything, it's the first time that I've called for a cab and made a mistake. The first call was a mistake and I didn't cancel it, but the second time I got it right.. But dam ma lu something simple also cannot do properly *hides face*

ARRGH

Wednesday, August 24, 2011 / 11:19 PM

Don't know why baby has been so edgy, god if it's about his assignment, I understand he's stress. He's telling me he's suffocating, am I suffocating him? Am I a bad girlfriend, to make him say that he's suffocating. But it's getting too much, does he even know how I feel.. I don't even get any of his time anymore, I feel unwanted sometimes. Seriously the feeling sucks big time!

Another kind of feeling, won't say it's jealousy more like it isn't fair.. Sometimes I would go into his facebook account to accept games. There was this time where I saw someone talking to him, the certain someone I hope he wouldn't talk to. Because there's a certain someone he didn't like me to on my friend list, which I have stopped. But isn't that unfair to me.. I don't know anymore.. is more like restriction.

Hate this awful feeling it makes me dam sad!

Mooncake!

/ 12:34 AM

Nee Ann City - Takashimaya having a mooncake festival (maybe it's not called a festival) well there were a lot of stores there at basement where the fountain's located.

I was like woooooooooo mooncake and thought to myself yea should get mooncake now. Just so you know my sister's and my eyes were like O.O from all the different kinds of mooncake from different shops/hotels. But we settled for a non hotel mooncake, this shop which I have never heard of even though it's near to my place at Joo Chiat. Wow! and they were having a 20% discount only for today.. So we bought 4 (: Original price for 4 for the D24 Snow skin durian - $52 but since we had the discount we only paid $42.20. *squeals*

The Shop is called

home's favourite - cookies n durian

The box that the mooncakes came in is so nice and i'm in love with it. Nah just kidding! But it's really nice, have a look at it and you'll know what I mean.

isn't it pretty (:

Let's have a look inside this lovely box shall we?

4 smaller indivisual packaging! 2 hidden underneath the cover.

We bought 2 black and 2 yellow, they bought taste equally good. Taste tested it before we bought it! My sister likes the black one more but I like both. I'll take pictures of the mooncakes when I actually eat it maybe tomorrow after dinner!

Seriously..

Tuesday, August 23, 2011 / 9:39 AM

Some people I know should just wake up from their idea. Please stop taking our kindness for granted, because you know what you'll never get it anywhere else. Your attitude towards working life is so horrible it makes me want to puke, you think you're so great but guess what you seriously are not. Stop influencing people that you've just met, because the outcome of it is not going to be nice. Look at yourselves, has money gotten to your head? Not worth paying you so much if you're going to just whine and complain all day and not do any work. Seriously not..

Proud of myself!

Monday, August 22, 2011 / 9:39 PM

I'm so proud of myself! I went running at the gym during lunch time. Spent 20 mins on the thread mill, seriously that's enough for me. Going to go Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.. Going to make it a routine hopefully I can fulfill it need to build up my stamina (:

Baby forgot his running stuff so I went running by myself even though I had colleagues running in the gym too. But he's running with me on wednesday yay! Maybe this week i'll run and brisk walk on the 2 remaining days and maybe next week move it up to 25 mins and then gradually I can run longer.

A very old friend (:

/ 1:12 AM

Met up with one of my friends from high school. Wah, hearing the word high school is like so far fetched. Year 12 was like 7 years ago. Well I was in her grade for like half a year till I went down a year. Was really sad and first but then I made more new friends. But yea I haven't seen her since then. Met her yesterday at her hotel (Swissotel) with her bf, she went back to Hong Kong 4 years ago while I came back to Singapore 2-3 years. Really didn't know where to take her to eat lunch, then she said that her bf and her likes Dempsey and they were told that there's another place similar to Dempsey. I said Holland V? I think she called someone to confirm and so we went there. Normally I don't go there to eat because it's seriously out of the way and it's super far away!

We went to EwF the menu there is different compared to the one at Orchard Central. I had the spaghetti bolognese..

and it came with none other then fries (: got the shoe string with sour cream & onion flavouring..

My high school friend got her bf to take a picture of us after so long, so I chanced the opportunity to get him to take one on my iPhone as well. Isn't she chio? She still looks the same after so long. We caught up pretty much everywhere her hotel lobby, the cab, the restaurant.. Haha!

Met her brother's girlfriend, she said she studied in Singapore for 3 years and have just graduated from EASB. Half the time they were communicating in Cantonese ): I had a hard time trying to figure out what they were saying. But my friend she was so sweet, she was translating for me. As we were done with our meals, we paid and left. Her brother's girlfriend hasn't eaten and we headed for Sushi Tei. I didn't eat anything except for dessert, was really full.

When they say 'frozen strawberries' seriously they weren't kidding! Tried to take a bite out of it and woooo it was hard and I had to think of innovative ways of defrosting my dessert. Then 'ting' and idea popped into my head! I'm going to do this..

smart right?

After they had their full we went our separate ways, well not exactly I hitched a ride to Bugis with my friend and caught the MRT from there.. Directed her to Bugis Street for endless cheap shopping. Went straight to Mount E where baby was then after left for his house.

I had so much fun with her and she asked me to promise her that I will head up to Hong Kong to visit her. Told her maybe sometime next year (: Hope baby and I can make the trip there!

There's always a first!

Sunday, August 21, 2011 / 11:53 PM

This is my first vegetarian meal ever (20.08.11)! It's unique but seriously will I ever eat it again.. This is a statement: I'm a carnivore!

Before my unique lunch, in the morning brought baby to his medical checkup @ Collyer Quay. While waiting for him I took this very nice photo, looks like the sun is rising since it was taken at 8.30 ish 8.45am. From the 18th floor of The Arcade (:

Went to visit his dad at the hospital after lunch, I decided to try one of my camera app on my iPhone and this is what I got. Looks like something out of a drama, baby's expression is WOW!

I didn't edit the picture to this shape, one of my apps did this.. nice right?

Went back to baby's house, I think baby was on the bed but me I hogged his computer (: was playing my facebook games.. hehe. But then I looked out the window and wow did the clouds look so soft. Makes me want to try to reach for it and grab it.

Crocs Tone™ Skylar Flats

/ 1:08 AM

Doing a Crocs review for a pair of their latest shoes for in2it.sg (work), the Crocs Tone™ series.

What is Crocs Tone? (Taken from Crocs website)

Crocs Tone™ helps deliver the benefits of toning with the comfort of Crocs. The innovation lies in the three-part patent-pending Crocs Tone™ sole:

• Sculpted outsole creates a rocker effect while you walk that can help initiate key muscle activity to provide toning benefits.
• Toning ring is designed to help moderate movement and provide support contributing to increased muscle activity.
• Comfortable, lightweight croslite™ footbed provides all-day comfort.

SIDE

BOTTOM

I've tried them on and it's definitely comfortable, does not give you those nasty blisters when you get from new shoes. I actually wanted the Espresso coloured but they didn't have it in my size in any of their stores. Sadness ): but with the help of baby I settled for the Black/Neon Pink Skylar Flats.

I'm wearing it to work, to see if it does what above says!

Labels: crocs, review, work

Sadness ):

Monday, August 15, 2011 / 11:38 PM

Me: I miss your voice
Baby: So fast

That instantly spoilt my mood ): seriously could you have said something better than "So fast". Cause really you're making it seem like my miss is like nothing. As if I just saw you like just then or one hour ago. But truly it was like a few hours! Maybe I shouldn't miss anything at all, train me to not miss you. See if you can take it..

Then you kept saying "can I don't like that" how not to be like that. It's hurtful hearing from your baby "so fast" why can't you say like aww or like I miss your voice too.

I really don't know what to say.. Oh! and I hate you're anything or up to you too.

Shopping online!

/ 12:41 AM

It arrived last week! But didn't get to see until the weekend (: It was delivered to baby's house. Bought 3 items from The Blush Inc.

Item # 1: A Mix of Dots Blouse (Nude)

Item #2 : Oversized Polka Blouson in Mint

Item #3 : Carolina Frills Dress in Emerald

(The colour is not this colour! It's more of a green then a turquoise colour.

My room lighting at night is not that great.)

Currently wearing #1, it's comfy, cooling and stylish and it comes with a zipper at the back. But I don't need the zipper I just slip it on (: I'm now aiming one other dress on The Blush Inc, it's called Karrie Sheath Dress! But I have to wait as my sister wants to browse and buy from here as well!

Changes!

Sunday, August 14, 2011 / 1:42 AM

I don't see how it's my fault! I hate people changing me into someone that i'm not. You should know that I don't like to eat certain kinds of food. But that's what makes me.. Me! Why can't you understand that! Instead you get angry at me, say that must my whole family have to change our diet for you. Hello! There are other alternatives I can do! Like buy food home or something, make instant noodles.

Today I actually tried something that I didn't want to eat just for you! Did you know that! I guess not if not we wouldn't have this retarded fight!

I prefer not to eat lamb or mushrooms but you just don't care! Maybe you do want to see me throw up!

FYI - I'm not perfect!

What if one day I'm really gone would you miss me?

♥ 7 Monthsary @ Jurong Bird Park

/ 2:40 AM

Today is our ♥ 7 Monthsary & it is also Singapore's Birthday. Baby and I spent our monthsary at Jurong Bird Park.

It's baby's first time here!

Hyacinth Macaws @ the entrance of Jurong Bird Park

Not sure what's the name of this orchid, but it's really pretty!

Our map, $1 retail vouchers and tickets!

(Double-Wattled Cassowary & Mandarin Duck)

We went to see the Penguins (:

King Penguins

Board that shows the different kind of penguin species in the enclosure!

So cute, that I couldn't resist but to take a picture with it.

Baby & I

(Isn't it pretty, the swan shaped like a ♥! Good for this occasion)

More penguins - from Africa (outside)

Scarlet Ibis

Their enclosure was so stinky I nearly puked and I didn't even eat anything!

Baby said it smelt like the market! I beg to differ..

Can you tell the difference?

There is definitely a difference, even though they look the same!

Left: Victoria Crowned Pigeon; Right: Common Crowned Pigeon

We then walked over to the Toucan & Hornbill enclosures.

It was really crowded, so we didn't stick around after this photo.

We went to check out the same species but different types.

Great Pied Hornbill

- is one of the larger members of the Hornbill family.

Don't remember the name of this Hornbill.

How to tell the difference between the male and the female? Simple!

Male: Has a lighter brown head; Female: Black

Next we headed towards the Lory Loft

At the entrance to the Lory Loft; just after the café, we were greeted by 2 noisy Lories.

Unfortunately I didn't manage to capture the bridge as I was too scared to look down (afraid of heights). So I had to keep my camera as I needed both hands even though baby was behind me. Holding me, but he's evil! He made me look down..

We left Lory Loft to head to Birds of Prey, seriously was so glad to be out of there.

1) Noisy to the max

2) Irritating foreigners who block your way

3) Scared that if we look up we might not like what we see and aiming straight for us!

I would put the Birds of Prey photos up, but i'm too ashamed of them! BLURRINESS! So shall not put them up ):

Did you know that Ostrich are dinosaur descendents?

Male: Black; Female: Brown

On the opposite side we walked into Jungle Jewels.

3 is a crowd

Mr. Toucan

Finally a solo picture of baby, next to a Jungle Jewel board!

Bird Discovery Centre

Baby next to the Elephant Bird; but sad this bird is already extinct ):

Look! It's posing for me (: *thumbs up*

Parrot Paradise

Pelican Cove & Flamingo Lake

OMG! 100% STINKS!

Flamingo Pool

Fast fact: Young flamingos hatch with grey plumage, but adults range from light pink to bright red due to aqueous bacteria and beta carotene obtained from their food supply.

By this time, I was suppose to be hungry with baby. But unfortunately I snacked on a Chicken Pie at the African Waterfall Aviary. In the end only baby had lunch @ Bongo Burgers which was located outside. Before heading out we had to get our hand stamped so that we could re enter.

Baby said the burger has no taste and that you need to add the salsa sauce to it.

This was what we shared, a large Root beer Float!

After lunch, I spotted this large golden bird cage. Got baby to take a photo of me inside, after baby made me squeeze through the bars to get out.

*feels like a caged bird*

Macaw Island

Blue: Hyacinth Macaw; Red: Scarlet Macaw

Lastly we went to catch 2 shows.

Birds n Buddies Show @ Pools Amphitheatre

Before the show

(Look at my sleepy face and pimples = =)

My tired baby (:

King of the Skies Show @ Hawk Walk

Can you spot the Harry Potter owl?

I seriously don't want to be in there; surrounded by different VULTURES!

Out very last stop!

World of Darkness (No flash allowed)

After we took a cab to Toa Payoh Central, cause baby asked me if I wanted Koi! I cannot resist Koi, it's so yummy. After tried the Pao & Siew Mai from Tiong Bahru Bao, recommendation from baby. Took a bus back to baby's place. Silly me! Forgot to bring my ezylink card, ended up paying with coins.

*inserts $1 paper*

(too tired to get a quick snap shot of it)

Took a quick shower, rest and had yummy dinner made by baby's mum or was it dad. Not quite sure on that need to confirm again. Then watched 美樂加油 and facebook before cabbing home. I swear the uncle thought he was a F1 driver, I got home so fast! You know the bend when you're on PIE getting off to Sims Avenue, he was going a 110km/h in a 60 - 80km road. I thought I was going to fly.. Just glad to be home safe (:
