deck the halls

365 days of sunshine and counting

with a blink of an eye it's year end, and it was in Dec 2009 I fell completely in love with the guy who later on gave me 365 days of sunshine. 

as unromantic as he say he is, I disagreed. I am probably the unromantic one. Our 16th Dec 2010 started late during dinner time. He brought me to Paulaner @ Millenium Walk a German Restuarant becos he wanted us to relive the wonderful time we had in Europe and that was the closest thing. Enjoying german beer and a meal of pork knuckle and schintzel. and he asked, where's ur winter jacket? :)

unromantic as he say he was, I disagreed. He hid presents in the car, and till today I am still wondering how he did it. =P I am the unromantic one, I hid his in my closet. Yay! Pink Polaroid Cam was all that I ever wanted. big hole in his pocket =P Finally. 

it felt like just yesterday, when u first held my hand in the cold winter of Europe.

 I love you.

short little getaway to rejuvenated Batam

2D1N Soju Bang !

Mood of the day: upset :(


With not-so-happy butterflies in your tummy
Iphoned

and never to part

motivation please

this semester is by far the slackest! firstly, i think taking more modules helps in motivating one to study. im only taking 4 this semester compared to 6 last sem. and i have NO motivation at all to start studying, nor prepare a time table. ooooo this is bad bad bad!

knowing that im gonna s/u 1, knw what's coming out for another doesnt help much either. and this week is like the last week of semester 7, with exams lurking round the corner, i NEED as much motivation as possible to chiong ah! the fact that i can still blog, and edit pictures says a LOT. sorry im a nerd

Nt forgetting the fact, last sem's notes which were supposed to be cleared a long time ago from those colourful files, were still intact. on a positive note, im proud to have been able to motivate myself enough to clear them and make way for the over flowing pile of notes i have on my table! under the influence of alcohol( choya only la!)

so the last tut of this semester, and also the last one with the fast track people like eug lee, means photo taking time as usual. check out zj's face (in green arrow) and i wonder what is sebastian doing. hmmmmmz

Grandma's 81st Birthday

Dinner was sumptious @ The Bee Huat Restaurant, 1 room 2 tables. with i dont knw how many course dinner!

daddy says, this restaurant have been around since he was born, that's a really long time! anxious to try the food.

im a big fan of the sharks' fin soup! yummy soup.  but dislike the Hokkien Mee which was suppose to be the signature dish!

Service was BAD, same sentiment as those who reviewed the restuarant at hungry gowhere, the waitresses kept rushing us to finish the food.

Wedding bells are ringing

Hee yeun's visit

081010

recent happenings in my humble life :)

recounting from where we left off...

081010

last time this year, we fell in love. for those who were speculating =P before i left for Berlin, we confessed to each other. =) and u've kept me smiling since then. though not officially tgt yet, i felt so bliss. distance wasnt the issue. it started only when i went Germany, absence makes the heart grow fonder =) we msn, skype and what nt, and love blossomed. i was oblivious to all his hints, till 081009.

& that's the best boyfriend award for u love

so to mark, this special day, we went to universal studios at night, had dinner and then watch the much anticipated fireworks display :)

the firework that lit up my night sky

missing....

lookbook.nu is my fave website right now. whenever im too saturated with projects, i'll take a 5 min peek at all those pretty girls and boys with pretty clothes. and looking thru the peektures, as seasons change, style and fashion change too, and right nw, i miss fall/winter season in germany.

miss those boots, stockings, leggings which make your legs longer.
miss those knitted sweater and leather jackets, coats, fur jackets which not only covers ur fats but also makes u look effortlessly good.

the days when nobody ask "very cold meh?" sarcastically is very missed

what a girl to do

dear neglected space,

i am so stressed right now because i realise i have tonnes of work to do BUT i just dont have the drive to do anything but think of ice cream, love and clothes.

damn it.

a lot like love

we went to a farmer's market at 75 Loewen Rd in Dempsey last saturday after reading a recommendation on Chic Magazine. researched a little online about the farmer's market that night and decided to head down the next morning.

the market opens at 8.30am and closes at 2pm according to online source. so i got up bright and early on a saturday morning while baby woke up late! =P haha when it comes to food i'll be up =P

anyway, it's pretty deep inside Dempsey and it's kinda difficult to get there if u dont have a car. lucky for us, we have one. at first we tot the place will be filled with expats, but nah there was a balance of both us and expats. the stalls were mostly mended by ang-mohs, even the veg counter. rare sight in Singapore i must say.

re-enactment of the farmer's market i use to love going to every sunday in Germany. Those markets in Europe is probably 20times bigger then the one we went to. they were clean and not smelly compared to the upgraded uwet markets we have in Singapore.

so in Loewen rd, they had stalls which sold premium olive oil, chocolates, dried products, cakes and pastries, bread, wines, english beer and cider, cheese, salami, a bbq counter, and of course my favourite paella station! yummmmmy!

heard the paella is good and that's the primary reason why we decided to give it a go at the market, kinda pricey at $10 per box, but it was all worth it. i think we bought like $40 worth of paella, and i must say it's a must-try. The paella is definitely better then those we had in Marche and Ma Maison, and comparable to those we ate in Barcelona! heavenly! cooked by a Spanish lady, which explains to authenticity, the ingredients were so fresh and their not stingy about how much prawn, sotong they give u. thumbs up!

and we had a bbq bacon burger to share as well, love the sesame bun hehe. but still cant compare to yummy paella! oops =X  

 it's kinda like a family affair over there, with kids running around and drawing all over on the floor as there were chalks laying about everywhere, the people there are very friendly and almost everything can be sampled! haha singaporean...

mid autumn 2

well, ang decided maybe it's time we have a BBQ together, and cad kindly hosted the BBQ at his house.
and as usual when u put 10 hungry people together, u'll expect a lot a lot a lot of FOOOOOD, so much that we couldnt finish again, as usual.

and the portobello mushroom with cheese is created by urs truely! hehe we had like sausages, crabsticks(yummy) 40 chicken wings, garlic bread and seafood plus cad's yummy pork lard! and we all agreed that this kinda bbq should only happen like once in a while if not we'll all have clogged up arteries from all the prok lard in our body =P

mid autumn

have been busy doing much about nothing all mid sem break. havent been catching up with a lot of school work and project, not to mention dissertation =( so many things to do with so little time, what am i to do.

despite all, we had a wonderful mooncake festival tgt, baby n i, and with the rest of the lycans.

an early mooncake festival, we went Clarke Quay after moviemob to see all the wonderful bright colourful lights.

and just nice, the mid-autumn festival at clarke quay coincided with the taiwan food fare! but the sad thing was we were soooo full and only managed to try 1 of it. Smelly TOFU! *covers nose* im quite impress with the array of taiwanese food selection. the stall vendors are also from Taiwan, authentic huh. anyway, not a big fan of smelly tofu, think that it's really stinky after u eat it, and the smell stays in the mouth. 

re-enactment of the past

* flipping thru the camera album*

Read on Sunday times, in the Life section on 20 dates less than $20. chanced upon this drive-in movie thingy and decided to check out the webbie.

dinner @ resorts world.

new school finds

the past week have been pretty tiring for me for some reason. the drilling coming from the house beside has been getting on my nerves so much so i wanna move out for the time being and mommy say find a room in school. haha and i think i've already missed the window period for pgp?

oh well. got to live with this misery. blehh 8am and i'm up already. tsk damn those renovation, i wonder why they have to drill all day long, everyday. it's not like their house is made of holes. raaaaaaah i wanna throw a hammmer to stop the noise. =(

last week was filled with food, food and more food. gosh. i think my tummy is gonna burst from all those food i've been consuming and also die of too much nutrition and rich food. becos daddy is very involve in 7 month dinners and ceremonies, we're always invited to dinners and i must say i'm quite sick of the food! got to draw the line and yesterday kok n i definitely did.

this was taken 2 weeks ago during our 8th, look at the amount of food on the table! could feed an army i suppose. ever since cad n kelly came back we've been going for so much local food every now n then, we're growing sideways. dim sum is always the best form of gathering :) all happy n smiles at yum cha chinatown. our biggest lycans turn out so far! even ang was there for dimsum and because everyone was present eug lee was pulled to join us when he had to rush his dissertation =PP

following that, i had Ippudo @ mandarin gallery on friday for chantel's birthday. best ramen in town but i was simply too full to have a bowl to myself. haha only had a few mouthfuls, kok tried hard ramen and i told him it tasted like wanton mee. belittle the infamous ramen. but it was definitely better than the one i had in Tampopo the night b4 with the girls. too bad i didnt get a bowl in ippudo cos ben took the bill =P only had a pot of green tea to myself. booooo

and then to fruit paradise for the cake cutting. cakes or shall i say giant pies/fruit tart looked so pretty, i've walked pass this cafe a couple of times in city hall and vivo but havent got a chance to try them. they defnitely looked too good to be eaten. so much so i couldnt even tell the fake plastic display to the real one. yes that's how good it looked =P. but the taste was disappointing. it's like i've paid 8 bucks for a whole load of cream! ewwwwww. i tried mount blanc and the chestnut swirl on top was tasteless not to mention the custard bottoms.

and enough about food. moving on to new things in life. ta da! iphone4! yipppeeeedo.. all thanks to daddy, "want to buy what? iphone 4 ah? ok let's go" i've got the best dad in the whole world or what?! =)))) got to the shop but they were all "SOLD OUT" hah, dad's "friend" made a few calls and ta da iphone4 resting on my hands. iphone 4 is of course better than my current chui iphone 3g. it's faster, longer battery life and has multi tasking features. plus i've ordered my free bumper from apple and it'll be shipped here is 3 weeks time. haha long? freee mah!

and i've blinged up my fat fat Honda on my steering wheel with the bling bling i bought from Daiso $2 only. and i've used it on my iphone casing as well and my canon g10. fat fat finally fitted with pink crystals =)) mommy say it's very ah lian, but i like can already la! haha =PP

and the ASOS parcel arrived! hehe and this time it's HUMONGOUS! becos of wei jie's shoes and wayne's bags, i only ordered 2 items which only took up 1/10th of the space. hah they still think i bought a lot. i asked my maid how did the postman deliver such a big package, she said no motorbike, VAN! woahhhhhh haha 

and this was what i got and they were on sale! hehe cheap cheap buys la. the kulottes which look very nice on this lanky model and kinda look weird on me ooops =XX i need longer slimmer legs! and this spag top which was inspired my chanel hehe!

blessed me :)
