To my dearest Sin

This blog entry is dedicate to my dearest Sin that just left back to Penang. I really enjoyed spending time with you even though it was quite short. I hope you enjoyed yourself as much too, and sorry if i wasn't a very good host ok? Remember to come down when you can, and my room, bed, toilet, hairdryer, and pillow will always be ready for you haha. Hope this entry can bring back the wonderful memories you had.
Day 1
When i met Sin on Friday, it was already about 9 something, so we didn't really have much time to go out. We did go somewhere, but i choose to keep that confidential haha. Had a heart to heart talk (me, Sin, and Yoke Huey) that night, which felt good as it brought me back to the time when we stayed together before i flew back to Singapore.
Day 2
On this day, we had a full day to bring Sin out to play. Finally one day where i don't have work, or other commitments. Started off with going to Golden Mile to book Sin's bus ticket back to Penang, and headed off to Suntec for "Money No Enough 2". I would say that this was a funny show, some scenes were really hillarious, but the start was a bit slow. If you are quite a soft hearted person, i am sure you would shed some tears in the cinema. Anyway i am not doing a movie review here. Back to what we did.


At the entrance of Suntec


At the food bazzar


On the escalator to the cinema
We reached about 20 mins earlier, so we decided to go take some neo prints cause we never took a single one despite knowing each other for almost a year plus. Kind of wasted cause we only managed to choose 2 pictures due to our slow fingers, and also cause of difficulties in understanding the stupid machine. But i still love the pics = )


My favourite one
After our movie, we decided to bring Sin to Sakae Sushi. Along the way, we made her take some "landmarks" of Singapore.
At the Republic Foodcourt
At the Suntec Convention Hall
Finally we reached the Sushi place. There's a branch in Penang as well, but Sushi sounded good to us and she did enjoy herself. Just look at that greedy face of hers!


Greedy Sin


The 3 of us
After dinner, what do you think we did? Haha, for those of you that know us well, i think you should know the answer. More food. We did walk around a bit, but soon settled down at the cosy pacific coffee or company or what, i cannot remember the name haha.


Cheesecake, Tiramisu, Green Tea with mango, and some berry drink
The cheesecake was good, the majority of the cheesecake was those soft cheese, and only 1/4 of it was the sponge type of cake. I think you can roughly see what i mean from the photos. The Tiramisu was just alright, tasted more like chocolate cake. Both the drinks were good, i like milky stuff, and the drink had quite a strong milky taste so i found it nice....


Me and Huey


Sin and Huey
The night ended with a game of sissors paper stone. Why? Because we couldn't finish the cakes. Darn bloated halfway through, and no one wanted to finish the cake so we decided to finish it off by getting the loser to eat (the odd one out). And of course as usual, the big loser was Yoke Huey! Haha, i think she finished almost half of the Tiramisu and cheesecake, thank goodness.
Day 3
Sin and Yoke Huey went to church with me on Sunday. I feel very honoured cause i think this is the first time that Yoke Huey ever stepped into a church. Thanks darling, even though you were not very willing haha. After service, we headed down to Vivocity to show Sin one of the biggest shopping centers in Singapore. Man, that place is really huge, i myself don't go there too often, so am still quite unfamiliar to that place. We went to Central for lunch and the food there is so nice! And i finally found where to have Hongkong Roadside Stall food haha.


I think i look very 'macho' here haha, don't know why, maybe just fat haha.


We were not supposed to take photo of this( i don't know why) but thank goodness when the lady told us we already took 2 photos haha.


Fish toufu, curry fish balls, pig intestines and crab balls
So yummy!
Toufu with pork floss
Sin and her "xi mi lu"
You know what. I cant understand why they don't allow us to take pictures of the food stall, but they also didn't allow us to take picture of the food we bought. Ok fair enough if you say they were afraid we copied their idea, but even when we were in the pic, i dun think it was allowed too. I shouldn't say they, it was only that one woman tending the food stall saying that we were not allowed to take pictures. So weird, but its ok, we still managed to do it in secret! Haha
I could only spend half the day with Sin cause i had to go meet bestie for our combined birthday celebration, so that ends Day 3.
Day 4
This was the last day Sin was in Singapore. The first half of the day, Sin and Yoke Huey came to the office to accompany me as my boss was away in Thailand. All the photos are with her, and i still havent got it from here. So on this day, i only got one photo of us.
This was taken at East Coast Park. Wanted to bring her there earlier for cycling, but i was caught up with some work at the office, so by the time we reached there, it was almost dark. And our dear Miss Susan Chia was complaining that she was hungry so no cycling for us. Anyway, more food pics are with Sin, so i guess i won't be able to post them up.
To Sin: Hope you enjoyed your trip and i will be looking forward to your next trip!

My Special Day... Aug 7

Went to the NUSS Guildhouse at Suntec this year with my family to celebrate my actualy 22nd birthday. Its been a while since i celebrated my birthday with my family due to me being in Melbourne. It definitely feels good to be back home and celebrating this special day together with my loved ones. Here are some of the pictures i took before our food came.

The kids, me and my Sister. Evan looks grouchy cause he was hungry = (


Me and my folks

Me and chubby mei mei
Handsome Esaius
This months food theme was fusion food, and i must say i enjoyed the fusion fare.
The appetizer: some scallop with Japanese toufu thing
Starters: Soft Shell Crab
Starters: Portebello Mushroom Salad
This was my main dish, some cod fish thingy with a creamy sauce. Yum yum
That was the end of the dinner, didn't take too much photos cause i was busy eating the whole time so that's it. This is just a short entry, got to go entertain my irritating ex housemate and darling Sin. Tata!

Tuesday, August 5, 2008

Its been a long while since i blogged, so sorry about that. Now i am down with a flu so i don't have to go to work tomorrow haha, thus explaining why i can stay up late to blog. Anyways, i guess i have been busy with work? Just followed Lara for an interview today, and i felt so terrible throughout the whole interview because i had to try not to sneeze or cough, and my throat felt bad; but i am feeling better now already = )

On Saturday, i had my early birthday celebration, and this year i had the celebration at my dear bestie's place. And of course there was a theme-occupational wear. Everyone was really a sport, and came dressed for the occasion making the party really fun; thanks guys! So what occupations did we have on that day?

And of course without bestie, i wouldn't have had such a nice place to hold this party


Our group photo before the party "ends"

The security guard came to lock the room at ten, so we decided to shift the party to the poolside. And this is when the adults left, leaving only us to party! The rest had some beer and red wine, and as usual alcoholic MiMi wanted more, but too bad not everyone could drink haha, like me. We also presented the best dressed award there, and our winner is... none other than the contractor! What to do, she suit that occupation too well so majority of the votes went to her. Susie, consider this occupation k? Haha. And of course, the presents = )


Thank you for the Coach pouch, and also to Stella. She had chicken pox so she couldn't join the party, but you still shared my present, thank you so much ya.


Amy and Mel's bikini for me


Thanks for the bedsheet guys! But Harry, don't be so giam can, next time don't re-use wraper!

The security guard came to tell us not to be so noisy when it got later into the night, so we decided to bring the party back to bestie's house, and as usual, cam whoring session for everyone haha, too many to post up so i shall just end with two group photos.


Us chilling in the balcony


And finally, everyone.

Thank you all very much for your presence that night, and also for being such a sport. I hope you guys enjoyed yourself. And bestie, thank you for your kind hospitality to my friends, and for your drinks, forks and cups haha. Remember our special date k? Love you all!

ps. I have been trying to upload the photos to the file sharing thing like 5 times, but it keeps failing so please bear with the wait k? Maybe i will burn it on a cd instead = )
