Went for dinner with Huka, Haydee and Miny at Blue Basil last night after a afternoon of shopping along Orchard Road with Huka. Blue and white was the theme of the night. Accompanied with great food, awesome company. (:

We continue taking many random photos at the outside of the restaurant after that. The people walking past and in and out must find us very very amusing. Haha.

Caught UP with Aub today at Cineleisure. Our first 3D movie! Quite disappointed with the 3D effects though. I was expecting something similar to what I had seen in Disneyland or Universal Studio rides but its nothing like that. It’s almost as if I was just watching the normal version. The movie itself was not bad. Pretty funny at parts. I really love the little fat boy Russell! Damn cute.

We walked over to Orchard Central for dinner after the movie. Failed to try out the new easteries. Got attracted to the delicious looking food displayed outside, we went into Botejyu. Aye. Regret. Shopped around OG afterward for Aub’s tumbler and he finally found one not too ugly one at a relatively cheap price. Bought expensive fruit tarts from Fruit Paradise for Mummy and Daddy before going home. I think the S$8 spent is really not worthed! The tart slice is much smaller than I expected and more than half the tart is of whipped cream. The crust is really nice though. But I’d rather buy cakes from CanelĂ© instead. Haha.

Love the denim corset top from Bonito Chico! (:

Beautiful day

Met up with Xue Ting yesterday. We’re like the only two bored souls around trying to find things to do to kill time. Haha. So decided to try “The Irresistible $15 Set Lunch at Clarke Quay” that my brother had been telling me about. Offer extends to quite a few restaurants along Clarke Quay. Think its quite a good deal. We settled for Hot Stones Steak and Seafood Restaurant two-course set lunch. It is similar to the Stone Grill Restaurant at Malaysia but food quality is definitely much much better!

I look damn fat in this photo. Aye. ):

Went over to shop around at The Central after lunch and we conclude that it’s a terrible place to shop at. There is really nothing worth shopping there. I decided to go for desert at Azabu Sabo and pulled Xue Ting along. Literally forced her into the shop. Hahah. That girl had Turkish ice cream after Hot Stones (but I didn’t!) and was super reluctant for a second round of desert. Took me damn long to psycho her into eating with me!

After that we continue down town to Orchard Central. They have quite a good variety of dining places and most seem to be new restaurants that I’ve not seen elsewhere outside. They look pretty good too! Shall go down again one day to try them out. There are also these open-air balcony areas that looks out to the streets of Orchard Road. They call it urban verandahs, meant for people to chill and relax at I guess. Nice place and I like the concept.

Wednesday was out shopping with Hui Zhen. The initial plan was to go down to Traceyeinny’s store at Chinatown but ended up just shopping around Orchard Road. We lunched at Soup Spoon @ Paragon and saw the cute aunty whom we were bargaining with at the Expo flea market. How small the world can be! Apparently she works over there aside from helping her daughter with the blog shop. And I think its pretty amazing that we actually bump into her together.

The both of us talked a lot over lunch. Hui Zhen says I give her a lot of good advices but I think back about it now, I realise that for a lot of the things I tell her, I don’t really practise them myself. It is like when shit really happens on you, you’d get all flustered and lost on what to do. But at times like those, I know I have her to depend on to help me through too. I think I’m pretty reliant on her for advices as well. Guess that’s what girlfriends are for. (:

Bro’s commencement was weeks ago but I thought I’ll post after I get the studio shots.

Graduation photos taken on campus that day.

Waited a while for Bro to go round taking photos with his friends then rushed down to Square 2 for our studio shot.

A pretty fresh experience. But I think I really suck at posing and looking naturally in front of cameras. Haha. And I really prefer myself the natural way. Make up looks funny one me. Aub agrees. Gah. Love how some of the photos turn out though. Especially the family shots!

My dearie Brother

Took a lot more pretty photos but too many to upload them all. We had the photos printed onto a wedding album alike book and I think its very prettily done! So does Daddy and Mummy. Can see that they really love it a lot!(:

So much to update but I’ve been feeling lazy to blog!

Met up with Huka yesterday and we had a girls date out the whole day from Suntec City to Wisma. Shop, eat and talk a lot! And thanks to Huka’s (very patient) help I finally found a overcoat for Canada! Yayyy. I dread the idea of covering myself up in big, bulky, unappealing clothes so I’ve combed almost the whole island trying to find something a bit more stylish. :x Haha. Just hope that my vanity wouldn’t cause me to freeze to death over there.

Outing with the gang to Seoul Garden @ Marina Square on Sunday! I haven’t stepped in there for ages! Think the last time was in Secondary 3. Haha. Xue Ting and I had strong cravings for Korean BBQ but we realised that most Korean restaurants are a tad too expensive! ): So in the end settled for Seoul Garden. Not very authentic but I think its not bad. I love the garlic chicken and chocolate fondue!

Had tonnes of fun with the gang over dinner!(:

Saturday night went to ION Orchard with Aub. The place is damn big, damn messy and damn crowded! Dinner-ed at Sho Teppanyaki since it was one of the casual dining places with a shorter queue. I think the food is not bad! Concept is somewhat similar to Pepper Lunch and beside teppanyaki they also have shabu shabu!

Window shopped around and Aub got himself another Crumpler. Talking about spending I think I’ve influenced Aub to become a shopaholic like me larh! The difference is that he has the income to support his spending while I’m leaching my my savings. ): So bad. We went for desert afterward before heading home!

IMG_1186

Went to the flea market @ Expo with Hui Zhen on Friday. Saw a few of the blog shop stalls over there. The clothes look so cheapskate made with really lousy material. Aye. Photo shots seen online are so unreliable! Set my eyes on a few pieces but they’re either too big or don’t have the colour I want. And I especially like this denim dress but the back design is ugly. Boo ): Went home empty handed in the end. Hui Zhen bought a mphosis inspired skirt and a white dress we spent 20 minutes trying to bargain 2 dollars off. Haha. The bargaining process was funny though. The aunty damn cute. Haha.

IMG_1175

I have a long to-do list to complete but I’m feeling very lazy! ): My room is in a BIG mess. PTS report is not done.. or rather not started on. Luggage for Canada is.. BAD. Aye. I really got to move my butt off the sofa and start getting things done.

Friday was the last day of intern. Usually will get really sick of work after 1 month but with the girls around, 9 weeks didn’t really feel that long after all! (:

We didn’t have much to do so started on the game of Pictionary. Collen drew and the 3 of us did the guessing. That girl draws the funniest thing. And she’s actually pretty good at it. Haha.

After that it was lunch and ice-cream at Vivocity with his friends, before me and Aub head down to Marina Square for some shopping… and a first salary dinner treat from Aub at 7atenine @ Esplanade!(:

IMG_2079

Lovely ambiance, great food. I’m definitely coming back for more! Probably for their Lunch Unlimited!

We went over to shop around Marina Square again for Aub’s smart pants. Like Topman’s cutting! But his size.. or rather the length he need is OOS. Aye sad.

It is going to be yet another long day tomorrow! Shall go get some rest now~

IMG_2090

We had our tiffs and had our fights, but I came home happy.(:

July 10, 2009

I’ll have to learn to let go and take things less seriously. Be less persistent and I will be happier. Sometimes it is just really silly and not worth all that. They probably pretty much don’t give a damn PLUS don’t even know what they are doing or want either. So why make myself so distressed all for nothing. Life is too short for that. Let them say or do whatever they want no matter how dumb it might be. Just have to stop bothering so much and be more indifferent. Yep. It’s not for me to judge anyway.

On a happy note, all that bad last night are starting to look up. I’m really thankful to have girlfriends whom I can depend on for sensible mature advices. Love them to bits. (:

I guess it’s easy to figure what is not worth and worth for in my life.
