Snippets of My Life ♥

This will be a rather lengthy photo-intensive post about random stuff which are not makeup-related. It'll be a nice break from the usual beauty topics (I truly hope so). Mostly about things I love. If you read my earlier non mu-related posts, you should know what follows next (;

Quick lunch with my gf (Serene) @ Coffee Club (Raffles Place). She had Skipper's Delight Penne, drenched in robust lobster sauce. It tasted quite alright initially but one gets sick of the sauce easily IMO.

I had the Lobster Bisque Baked Rice, which comes with ONLY 2 half-shelled diver scallops. The serving is just right if you are not that hungry. Every mouthful is flavorful albeit the slight oiliness.

Hmm puny size scallops......

A mini tea-break with colleagues @ Secret Recipe (Plaza Singapura). Service was really bad as they waited for their order of just fried chicken wings for more than 30mins. They ordered at different timings somemore. No sincere aplogies or whatsoever.

My cup of cappuccino, which tasted so-so. I quite like the carrot cake though. However, I still prefer Coffee Bean's (:

The Manhattan Fish Market had the most jaw-dropping deal ever on 1st of April. Yes, April Fool's Day but it was no joke. $3.99++ for Fish & Chips! There was already a long queue forming outside when we arrived in the evening. On a happier note, we didn't wait that long :D

The $3.99++ Fish & Chips look nothing like the one shown on the menu, or the usual ones @ normal price. Soft drinks were @ $1++ for a small cup. The usual chilli, garlic and tartar sauces weren't provided. In place of 'em was the conventional chilli sauce you find at western restaurants. What you pay is what you get.

The taste was much oilier than usual, prolly b'coz they were using the same oil to fry over and over again. But still, the taste was still acceptable.

The letdown was THIS! It was ala carte item, not on special offer. The taste was horrible! Very oily and tasteless. Only the fried mushrooms were good full-stop! The fried calamari was tiny and the tecture was like chewing gum :/ This cost about the price of $3.99++ Fish & Chips x2? Look at the presentation of the fried platter. Fail much, seriously. What's with the fugly cabbages? *faints*

After the not so satisfied dinner, we went for our mini gathering. Some of 'em couldn't make it that night. It's ok, we still had lotsa fun anyway.

Me, the only short hair among the long-hairs.

My makeup was super minimal that day. Just face powder + eyebrow + blusher.

Best photo taken that night, coz it's taken by yours truly heh (;

Downed 2 bottles of Martell. And, I finally got to sing KTV! That night, the pub was full house and I had to wait for ages for my turn to sing *pouts* So many youngsters, we seriously feel so old being there hahas! Then it was home sweet home, with hangover the next day >.<

Dinner with bro at kopitiam, near our home. Simple Chinese-style mee goreng.

Yummy sweet & sour pork, though the quantity was too little for $8.

Disappointing hot plate egg tofu. No veges and too little egg(s). The egg tofu didn't taste good at all :/

Dinner with sis at Porn's (Liang Seah Street). Look at the ridiculous layer of oil! We scooped the oil out before eating :s Tasted quite good actually.

The pineapple rice was too dry. The one @ Thai Express taste way much better! Thumbs down for this :/

This was my iced roselle tea (I think). Refreshing drink!

Disappointing seafood tom yum in hot pot. The ingredients not that fresh.

Her Thai iced milk tea. I think I much prefer my drink. Overall, quite disappointing for the price paid. Per pax was nearly $25. Not worth it. Gimme Thai Express anytime.

JB trip...

Ngor hiang. I'm not a big fan of these. Taste rather salty.

Iced milk coffee+tea aka yuan yang and iced coke float.

Soya sauce chicken noodles (drumstick!). Didn't take much photos that day.

In between, we went shopping! There was sales going on @ Etude House and The Face Shop.

After shopping for hours, dinner was settled @ Kim Gary.

My iced mango drink. Actually taste not bad but the mango bits too sour :s

Iced strawberry drink. Sweetness overload.

Beef fried rice with sunny side-up (the egg so tempting eh!).

Aiyo disappointing! The fries with minced beef sauce taste so bland can :/ The beef sauce given was damn pathetic. The one I had in S'pore was far better!

Another disappointment, both ordered by yours truly :/ The size of these fried popcorn fish was half the size of S'pore ones. The taste was blah. Nuff' said.

Pork cutlet pasta with tomatoes. Yummy! The meat was pretty tender and the tomatoes were fresh. Didn't like the pasta noodles though.

We reached S'pore at around 7plus? Forgot already. Anyway, we went walk walk for a bit. And, our last stop was The Canteen (Shaw Centre). Yes, EAT AGAIN. It was an intensive walking, eating, shopping day indeed!

Sausages with mashed potato.

Bak kut teh :3

Quite a generous serving portion, and the soup was really good (at least to me) :d~ The meat was quite tender as well. Thumbs up definitely!

My sis' netbook was spoilt and so, me and bro accompanied her to Sim Lim Square to get a new laptop. She is very choosy.

Her needs:

• PINK
• High Definition Webcam

 

In the end, she got a Dell laptop, as my bro said it was value-for-$ blablabla. After the long purchase, she couldn't stop comparing it with Mac Air :/ Using it for basic needs only what.. DOTS..

By then, I was super famished. We walked over to Cuppage Plaza and had dinner at this small eatery.

Her deliberately closed-eyes.. o.o

Better photo. The lighting wasn't that good, so yups.

Fried gyoza abit oily but tasty.

Vinegar plus chili oil.

Super value meal of the day.

*drool*

The serving portion seriously big!

Oops forgot the name of the ramen-s :x Very yummy!

My spicy ramen :d~

Random photos' time :D

OOTD. My favorite dress and the long grey cardigan is from BYSI. Cheap but nice grey snake-print belt from FEP. U.R.S & inc. strapped heels.

Snap a photo @ KATE event.

A steamboat buffet treat from my colleague. Thanks Voyce! ♥

The ingredients there are fresh and I simply love the soup base. Located at Liang Seah Street, across Shaw Tower.

Coffee Bean's Spring Peach Tea Latte while at work. Sad to say, I dislike the overly milky taste.

My first time buying Sticky's candies! They are handmade and can be customized too (for big orders). And I got myself Kiwi Rock and Pink Grapefruit Rock flavors ♥

Both taste good (of coz)! I'm not really a big fan of candies, but these for sure brightens up my day (:

Life will be boring without eye-candies, don't ya think so (at least to me lol)? Yes, I love these type of "candies", good for the eyes hahas (;

It was a random day of insomnia, when I suddenly thought of this ex-actor Shen Hui Hao 沈晖豪. I think he should be in in late 30s now? Or early 40s? I know not. I'd seen him acting when I was very young (prolly primary school days) :x Not bad looking eh.

And, I stumbled upon this movie online "Koizora (Sky of Love)". A watchable movie, I would say. Simple storyline, and a tearful one.

Featuring Haruma Miura and Yui Aragaki.

Kawaii-neh!~

*MELT*

 

And no, I didn't forget about Hyun Bin! heh.

Woohoo! Handsomeeeeee!

*GASP*

 

Oh, did I not mention I like Britney Spears?

Here's a super pretty photo of her (:

Ahhh.. Favoritest! So adorable right? Saw this photo which my colleague shared on FB and my first thought was that she's oh-so-cute! Agree much?
