30 December 2011

2011 is coming to an end in just a day time. Maybe it's time for me to do some reflection for 2011.

Several changes were introduced into my life, some big impact in my life, some small... Perhaps I would just talk about the big ones then.

Precious Junior's leaving in April
It was a very painful event for my family. He came into our life when I was in secondary school and had been a part of the family since then. His sudden leaving left us in a shock and till today we were still not totally over it. Every now and then when I see his pictures in my room, it would remind me of what a sweet darling he had been. He will be forever in our heart and he is deeply missed by us.

Leaving my previous job in July
I would not say that which job is better. But rather it is something different. Leaving my comfort zone to explore something new was not an easy task for me but yet I did it. I am actually quite happy that I did. Having more time for my family and friends was something I yearned to have but could not due to datelines and responsibilities. There are different pros and cons in every job out there, I understands and respects that. I am happy now with my current job and I guess that says it all.

Bought Blossom Residences in August
Bunny and I finally bought our little love nest together. Although it will only be ready in 2014, it was a big commitment for the both of us and also the start of a new level in our relationship. As this little place does not come cheap, there will probably be alot of planning to be done next year.

5 December 2011

Bro and Sis decided to organize a family dinner at the Dan Ryan Chicago Grill after hearing so many ravings about it.

It was a very cozy English style restaurant. (What can you expect from an American restaurant right?) We ordered the set menu which was quite a big portion and definitely some other sides to share as well
  • Bread (There was some butter cake and muffin in the basket as well)
  • Starter (Salad or soup) - I took the salad for a change
  • Main course - I had the steak
  • Dessert - I had it change to the brownie

My favourite dish for the evening would definitely be the brownie dessert. It was so rich and moist. Yummy...

Overall, the food was great and the portion was quite generous. Everyone was enjoying the food and company which was the whole idea for this dinner.

11-14 November 2011



This year, we decided to go on a short getaway to Bintan... Initial plans was with David and his girlfriend but due to some mishap, they decided to give it a pass. So, it was just Bunny and me in the huge villa. We stayed at Indra Maya Resort, the exact one that we had stayed the last time we went.
When we were there, there was a event going on "Tour De Bintan 2011" where cyclist from all over world will come to cycle. It was pretty cool, we got to see many different types of bicycles and how cautious they were when they were handling it. Interesting... But the funny thing was, during the event everywhere was packed with people but other then that it was empty, like a dead town, even for the restaurants, attractions and even the beach. Often we wonder, where did all the people go?
This was a really relaxing trip. Just lazing by the pool with a book in the hand, away from all the work, away from all the stress felt so good. I can do this more often.

8 October 2011

How can we not celebrate Oktoberfest in October right? So I brought my parents to join in the fun for Oktoberfest at Brozeit. A pity Bro was unable to join us as he will only touch down from Vietnam in the wee hours. Despite that, we had a great deal of fun. At least my parents got to experience something new.

How can we miss out beer on this occasion? (1 for Bunny and 1 for me)
A toast to Oktoberfest. Hola
Look at how big the portion is. It serves 4-6 pax.
Extra large pork knuckle
Extra fat sausage

Pardon my big face picture. Bunny bought me a new pair of glasses. It is my extremely early Christmas present. I love it to bits. It's from Emporio Armani, my very first designer glasses. Another item off my wishlist. Thanks Bunny

1 October 2011

Took part in the Pink Ribbon Walk by Watsons on Saturday. It was FUN, the whole area was a sea of pink. Although the walk was tiring, I find it inspiring and enjoyable. Really proud of those breast cancer survivors, they are so brave.
After the walk, met up with Bunny and friends for some prawning session. Omg, it's my first time prawning and probably going to be the last time as well. It's so boring and the prawns doesn't even taste nice. Wonder why would people pay so much for tasteless prawns. To think of it logically, it's such an expensive game to prawn. I might as well buy $30 worth of prawns from the market and put them in a pail to prawn at home, bored of prawning then cook them to satisfy the hungry stomach.

See the happy smile on Bunny's face, these are the results of all his hardwork... He kept insisting that I take this picture of his proud moment.

A Little Bit of Heaven

Caught "A Little Bit of Heaven" last weekend and it was good. I urge you guys to catch it if you haven't. It's a very inspiring movie but don't forget your tissue.

Here is the synopsis...
Its not easy being a woman in New York's cut throat advertising industry. But Marley (Kate Hudson) has worked her way up to become the youngest Account Director on Madison Avenue all with a cheeky smile and her irreverent sense of humour.

She doesn't care what anyone thinks but most of all she doesn't believe in getting attached especially to members of the opposite sex. That is until she is thrown a massive curve ball. Don't forget your tissues for this heartfelt romantic drama that will have you battling alongside Marley for love, family and .life.

Desmond and Desiree wedding



Got some pictures from Desiree's page on her wedding day. It was such a coincidence that her mum and I was wearing the same color dress and was standing next to each other.

Mummy's Birthday





It was Mummy's birthday and we decided to have dinner at Long Beach(Kallang) and surprise her with a pretty cake. The food and service there was great and of course that probably was part of the bill as well. Hope Mummy enjoyed herself and I want to scream out loud "HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUMMY and WE LOVE YOU!!!"

Sentosa Day

Took leave on Monday and went to Sentosa with Bunny. We had a great time. Bought the play pass for 4 attractions. We went to the Sentosa Cineblast - extreme log ride, desperados (3D), pirates (4D) and not forgetting Segway. Everything was almost perfect when I fell... It was so embarrassing and painful. But overall I had fun. Thanks Bunny.
***Pictures to be updated another time.
