♥ Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year ♥

First comes Christmas, my favourite festive event of the year, and before we get to soak into the romantic and joyful atmosphere, here comes New Year right after Christmas Day, before red red Chinese New Year ambiance greet the city. It is rather over-whelming that 2010 is literally coming to an end. 3 days time hallelujah allejandro! The graph of 2010 was exhilaratingly steep, high and low, which reminds me the Yin & Yang rule that governs the world we live in. Lots that I have learnt in this year, academically and also in personal growth. Afterall I am hitting the two three next year, time to grow up and think wisely for whatever choice I make.

Busy week or in fact, month ahead.
Lots of errands to run and no more procrastination woman!

'There is no shortage of time, only a confusion of priorities', 
I must always keep that in mind!

Now let me share with you a few snap shots of Christmas decoration I managed to capture in the city:






















Christmas decoration?? or CNY??








Have I mentioned how I'm loving MOS burger??
The reasonably priced healthy bites which is sufficient for a meal. yumm :)









And one of my favourite high tea spots would be tcc - the coffee connoisseur.

Year 2010 has been a great one. 
May 2011 which is in 3 days time be as splendid or even better ♥

Best wishes everyone, before that, let me leave you with this:

" IF YOU DON'T PLAN YOUR PLAN, 
IT WILL REMAIN A DREAM."

quoted from one of the books (as though I'm reading many books blah. I'm still looking for The Answers by John Assaraf and Murray Smith that I read halfway and couldn't renew due to me being one day late okay enough of this crap but still imma look for the book in Kinokunya this weekend if possible!) that I'm currently reading during MRT rides, THE RULES OF LIFE by Richard Templar.

So lesson of the quote:
JUST DO IT!!

Despite the fact that I'm really enjoying every moment now.
Feeling blessed for everything. Thank you! :)

Spreading the L♥VE!

Just finished watching Romeo and Juliet. I must say, having Leonardo Dicaprio and all speaking in William Shakespear proper old english with the thou I thee shall crap in a modern set is quite funny.

But still a very sad love story, or maybe they find peace in heaven?? :) Love the soundtrack.










Had lunch at WATAMI.
Ordered a set for 2. More than enough for the 3 big mouths!























Wait! There's more coming!














Yum!




The sister is very much in love with SEPHORA, ION.
That will be a listed-must-hang-out-place in Orchard.




I know you are very happy! :P







Random Christmas events along Orchard road. Celebrating the birth of Christ.








"So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young.."

Garlic- and-Onion-Themed-Brunch!

Home alone.
And my first attempt to cook.

I was too lazy to leave my secure little space to get food so I started searching for ingredients left for me to cook a decent meal. Chopping garlics and onions is always my favourite part in cooking, turned on the flame and starting sizzling the garlic to golden brown and then the onions and mushrooms, off the vermicelli goes plus a pinch of flavourings,
.
.
.
tadah!!


Nothing can go wrong when there is cheese and I was searching high and low for some green stuff to sprinkle on it and I found seaweed!

Never did I realize everything in the kitchen is Japanese themed,
it's because Jia is the one who does groceries shopping :P


*munch munch slurp! :)

Of Scrumptious Food and Great Companions.

Everyone has a dream, has plans for the future, has goals to reach. But every now and then, we will meet disappointments, fail and fall. There is no wrong in failing, you only fail when you never even give it a try.

Failing is part of life, and it's when we stand up when we fall that makes us grow and improve everyday. And I'm a very girl to have people around me that guide me along my life, and of course with a little faith in myself, and not blaming myself if I don't achieve something, as long as I've tried my best.


It is sad how this society has turned into, humans being materialistic while forgetting our role for being on the earth. No doubt I am being sucked into the ego materialistic world. Craving for items that I don't need. I am glad to have someone to keep me reminded, but without stopping me from getting what I want, as long as I am conscious of my status and reputation. I am glad to have bought my first Burberry bag with my own hard earned money and not my parents', makes me feel independent. However there are so much that I owe to my parents, all the money I earn should go to them, but they prefer me to keep it for myself. It is perplexing when I know everything they do is for the best of us, every parents just want their kids to lead a happy life. I am so blessed to be born in such a lovely family.

Just taking things as they come, and making the best of everything.

We have a short life to live, step by step :)

Met up with dear JSPO family Zingyi and Rachel at Vivocity and we had a great catch up. Year goes by and it has been 5 years since we graduated from secondary school, but it's as though nothing has changed, just the age and the length of the hair? :P

@ Food republic, the best choice of location when you don't have any preference in food.




honglaysee!! :D

I feel that she has changed a lot, in a good way of course.

Wanting to try everything and challenge for anything new.


Trying the tea rice.

Yes that green thing is the tea for the rice, tastes weird to be consumed solely but should blend well with the rice. Not for me though, dislike the mint taste :/

She wanted to climb up to the building somewhere after we crossed the Handerson Wave although it was already quite late at night and it might be creepy on top of the hill, I am really shocked and impressed with her change of attitude. ;)

Met up with Pretty Pey Sin today for some inquiries.

Sorry for being late!

No money for your OT pay I am afraid :P

We chose to hang out at tcc Shaw House.

AHH FAT!!!!@@



We chatted a lot of girl stuff and other more serious stuff.

Really had a great time to have girl talks, about our Burberry craves and can't believe she's aiming for a CHANEL too! *screams* :D


I will get a CHANEL maxi (yea the biggest one to compliment my huge body) when the time is right, maybe not a black but a beige one (not the peach colour). Saw it in HongKong omg I was literally drooling when I see myself having it sling on my shoulder, plus it being the limited edition and cheaper by a few hundreds SGD! T O T

I will reach that stage we shall see!!!

@ Handburger.
With the one who shall not be named.

I am talking about Voldemort? From Harry Potter?

peek - a - boo!

Creamy Mushroom soup.

Would prefer it more creamy, but the chunky mushrooms are utter yumss.

The Chef's Special:

Grilled 150g of 100% NZ beef patty, topped with cheddar cheese, wrapped with premium smoked butcher ham, slathered with cranberry sauce, roasted chestnuts and roasted pear wedges on a bed of coral lettuce, tomato on a toasted caramelised onion bun.

Almost 100% perfect combination for him, but the cranberry sauce is a little too sweet for my liking. Overall not too bad still :)


The Handburger Original:

Grilled 150g of 100% NZ ribeye beef patty, sweet onion jam (love this!!) cheddar cheese, hand made barbeque sauce on a bed of coral lettuce, tomato on a toasted caramelised onion bun.

Really love the sweet onion jam!

But a little home-made tomato sauce made a great compliment.

The sister will be back anytime soon.

Time for a major clean up.

And I will be an LV bag owner soon.

Bought with my own money too I should be proud :)

*excited*
