be my valentine
Monday, February 25, 2013 / 2:18 AM
I was on AL on Wednesday, 13 February. Just needed to take a break and get baby's Valentine's Day gift ready. It was a messy process as I have never done this recipe before. Totally blew up in my face, not literally but in the microwave. Was not a pretty sight as I had to clean it up, very messy, oily and sticky. But it turned out ok, will not be doing it ever again..
I was almost done making these and was scared I wasn't going to be on time because I didn't think my silly boy would ask me out for dinner the day before Valentine's Day.
Well he did and he wouldn't tell me where we were going to just that it was Japanese.
So I met him at VivoCity, wasn't long to reach. Once I reached he was no where to be found. Called him and he said he was still in the office *face palm* So I waited while I watch Vampire Diaries.
Took a cab to the place, explored it and went to the restaurant, thank god I wasn't wearing shorts and slippers. The place was a fine dining Japanese restaurant. Baby so sweet knows I like Jap food and he went scouting for one :3 I wuv you!
our menu
I chose these but I wish baby had chosen for me cause whatever I picked it didn't taste as nice as his and I kinda ended up eating his instead of mine :3
Appetizer - Chef's Selection of Assorted Platter
{Left: Salmon, Middle: Scallop, Right: Foie Gras}
(Ate the middle.. Baby had the rest )
Cold Dish - King Crab Claw Salad drizzled with Sesame Vinagrette
(If you know me and know I don't eat veges and you're thinking wow she's finally eating her greens. Well then i'm sorry to burst you're bubble but I did not.. Lol! Baby helped me eat it :3 keke..)
Side Dish - Tempura battered Soft Shell Crab on Truffle Mash
(I didn't taste the truffle but it was yummy)
Soup - Japanese Kun-bu Miso Soup
(Was playing it safe, although I wished I took the Infusion of Cepes Mushroom with Truffle which Baby had gotten)
Main - Kurubuta Pork Cheek
(Not sure why they spelt Kurobuta wrongly. Didn't like it had a lot of rosemary on it. Ended up swapping with Baby)
Dessert - Rosemary Panna Cotta with Berry Consume
(Didn't think it would be so strong, even though I was trying to drown the rosemary taste with the berry.. I've had better Panna Cotta..)
Baby chose..
Appetizer - Chef's Selection of Assorted Platter
{Left: Salmon, Middle: Scallop, Right: Foie Gras}
Cold Dish - Platter of Air Flown Seasonal Sashimi
Side Dish - Gratinated Escargots baked with Yuzu Butter
Soup - Infusion of Cepes Mushroom with Truffle
Main - Beef Tenderloin on "Pu-Ye" and Granite Hot Stone
Dessert - Japanese Cheese Cake
Our drinks
Very addictive
Welcome drinks in shot glasses
After dinner we walked 2 bus stops as we had missed the bus.. and all we did was trying to see who's right with the pronunciation with the word "Lettuce".
Baby kept telling me that I would not be getting any flowers on Valentine's Day..
Thursday, 14 February 2013
Well thinking that I would not be getting any flowers this year, baby gave me a box with my present in it. Apparently it has been on his table and I'm seriously blind not to notice it in his room.. Because he kept saying that I don't know if you'll use it.. sounds omg I was thinking of lingerie or something..
Love the wrapping paper ♥
I was so wrong..
Words: I'm all yours
:3 I see you hugging me..♥
People everywhere were getting deliveries from their boyfriends and husbands.. and well not say I was feeling left out but it didn't occur to me that I would be getting any this year as Baby said will not..
I was wrong.. as my table is at the back of the room and I'm not able to see who comes into the room unless they come closer to my table.. one of my colleague told me that I have flowers.
*shocked* I left my seat to receive and signed. Apparently the guy delivering is Baby's army friend..
I didn't know..
Aren't they pretty.. all 12 of them ♥
Then came a blocked call.. at first I didn't want to pick it up and I let it end call by itself.. well seriously I had my fair share of DBS call centre calling me up to talk to me it's quite annoying and they normally would have a blocked number. But for some reason I felt like I should pick it up if the person would call me back. Well he did and to my surprise it was another delivery. Went down to collect..
Love the colour and my first teddy from baby!
{His name is T}
After work, I brought baby to eat ramen at Nattsutei (Millenium Walk, Parco, level 3)
I forgot to take a picture of baby's ramen but here's a picture of mine.
We walked to Suntec City and had ice cream at Anderson..
There was some ice cream flavour mix up while ordering.. as the person had taken the wrong flavour down.. she needs to brush up on her English or maybe her hearing is just bad..

Non Stop Rain..
Sunday, February 10, 2013 / 2:10 PM
It's currently raining now! Thank god it wasn't raining this morning..
If not going to the temple to see my grandmother would be horrible!
Oh about this morning, my brother told me to wake up at 8am to get ready in case I needed more time. I snoozed my alarm to 8.20am then woked up from my beauty sleep! Got ready and guess what it was 8.55am and I heard no movement in his room. Chiam liao he's still not up! So I called him but he didn't pick up. I didn't want to knock in case if I did then the poopies will bark, but then thinking back, I should have. Bro said he didn't hear his alarm go off, but the whole morning I heard my sis-in-law's alarm go off and she didn't even wake up.. so fantastic = =
We left the house around 9.10am, told my aunt that we were going to be late.
The time to meet was at 9am.. got there around 9.20am.
Every year we would huddle around the front of all the tables just to find our grandmother. I hope I can remember the row her tablet is on next year. If not next year would need another huddle session. Was so glad I didn't have to see a certain someone there as I got a shock of my life last year.
Of all people, I had to see him..
Anyways we had to leave the temple early as bro had to go visiting on sis-in-laws side first before we can visiting to my 2 grand aunts. On the way back I requested for McDonalds, as I haven't had hotcakes in such a long time. Got back and was stared down by Oreo, Nugget and Hershey.. Couldn't eat in peace as their faces were so cute and their tongues sticking out.
Just had my shower as I was smelling like joss sticks before from the temple.
But then now it's like raining heavily. Oh my how do I go visiting like that.
------ Came back from visiting an hour or two ago. Seriously my brother wants to hai me how many times today.. Let me see... about 3 times!! He kept saying to our relatives "she's almost married!".. Seriously how do I look almost married when I don't have an engagement ring on my finger.. I'm trying to avoid that particular question.. and well I should have said something about the other particular question he likes to dodge.. I'm done visiting for today!

Clumsy.
Friday, February 8, 2013 / 10:43 AM
OMG I'm so clumsy this morning.. I was heading for my room door and normally a normal person would just stand still before opening the door. I on the other hand decided to be clumsy and literally walk into my door. = =! So I opened my door and walked at the same time. Smart right! My right cheek took most of it, it was sore this morning. I was scared cause the knock was so hard and it was painful that it would bruise. But I think I should be safe for now.. Haha..
That seriously woked me up from my half asleep state.
But mine's the door! Not the frying pan. Ouch that must hurt!

pimple pimple pimple, why must you appear at a weird spot and at the wrong time. Chinese New Year period is not the best time for you to appear on my face, below my lip above my chin... You weren't there yesterday, why are you appearing now!
You gave me a shock this morning, when I was washing my face. I thought I had gotten myself an ulcer.. But it was you.. ): Now go away and leave my poor face alone!

The ridiculous questions that BFF has asked me over at her blog!
What if you find out the guy you going to get married is already married?
- I wouldn't marry the guy.
What if he rent a yacht and propose to you?
- Hmm. That would be a surprise but then I'll get sea sick. So that wouldn't be a good idea.
What if you find out he is a gay?
- What kind of question is this. What can I do? Can't change the person right..
What if he has many flings without you knowing?
- I don't see why this is relevant..
What if after you knew he is a gay and seek for your acceptance, will you still marry him?
- No, cause if the guy is gay there's no way he will ask a girl to marry him = =
There I've answered your weird questions to me. Not sure how is this relevant. LOL!

我生病了!
/ 11:40 AM
): 不好舒服! Keep on coughing and the sore throat is not helping. Normally if the air con in the office is like 21 degrees I will freeze to death and wear an extra jacket. But today I was not even cold! And both air cons were on 21 degrees. I think was the slight fever I was having this morning.
现在,在看医生.. 有人在我的见面!
ahh faster see doctor then I can buy dinner and go home.
If the doctor give me MC,

Ah Boys To Men

Love love love their theme songs for part 1 & 2. At first I didn't like the theme song 'Brothers' from part 2 as it was not as catchy as 'Recruit's Anthem. Because I watched Ah Boys to Men Part 2 twice the 'Brothers' song kinda got stuck to me. If I could repeat the song all day.. I would (: LOL!
