hApPy 32nd mOnth anniVerSaRy + Maid-No more! *gua gua*

Still, my maid went back home to Philippines today! haix...it's the start of dooms day for me! =p

Anyways...today also marks the last day of my long one week holiday break since the previous Friday afternoon. Glad to have meet up with Fang and Xiaowan on the Friday that just passed. It's been uber duper long since we last met. We went to Xian De Lai to have our steamboat since Lifang was craving for steamboat like since so long ago when we wanted to meet. Since I wasn't working on that day, I went out earlier that day to go do some shopping at Orchard first before proceeding down to Bugis to meet up with Fang first as Xiaowan had to work a little overtime. After walking and shopping around a little, we went over to Xian De Lai first cos' it's always packed there, especially on Friday nights.

We started our steamboat session first while waiting for Miss Neo. Miss Neo only managed to reach at around 830pm. Irene couldn't join us as she had to celebrate her friend's birthday. But coincidentally, she and her friends also went over to Xian De Lai for dinner! So she came down and talk some rubbish with us for a while in the midst of dinner. And wow we really eat for super long...like 3.5 hours I think. After which we took a train down to Orchard Cineleisure for a rather short KTV session. (Babes...we didn't take any pics!!duh...) Shall look forward to our KTV session once Katrina comes back to Singapore!

Oh and of course I wouldn't forget to mention that today is also me and Dar's 32nd mOnth annIversary! heex...hApPy 32nd mOnth anniVerSaRy to us Dar! Though there wasn't much celebration this weekend, but Dar still fulfilled his promise to cook us (or rather me) carbonara pasta! We initially intend to have it together for lunch, but end up his mummy prepared lunch for us. But nevertheless, other then agreeing to have it together for dinner next Saturday instead, Dar still cooked some for me and his sister to bring to work for lunch tomorrow! Yeah~~Dar Dar Wan Sui!!Smuacks...^^

(my Carbonara Pasta!!)

Heex and Bella also finally got hold of her very first bottle of SKII essence yesterday. Shall try it tonight or maybe tomorrow. Hope it'll really work wonders for me like how it worked for my colleagues. keke...gotta go iron my clothes for work tomorrow now! Tataz...*kisses* (^^)

*hApPy Children's Day + Selamat Hari Raya*

It's public Holiday today!!And not because it's just Children's Day today, but it's also Hari Raya. So Selamat Hari Raya too!

Yesterday was my Daddy's bdae like I mentioned in my previous post. We (i.e. Daddy, Mummy, Brother and his gf, me and Dar) went to the Thai Village Sharkfins Restaurant beside Goodwood Park Hotel to eat.

(On our way to go eat to celebrate Daddy's bdae!)



(My beloved Daddy's driving!muacks!)

We reached there at around 7pm and proceeded in shortly. Luckily Bro made reservations cos' the place was so packed. After making the orders, we chatted while waiting for the food to come. Though the service grew slower as the place got more filled up, I still find the service there not too bad. Here's our orders, forgot to take pics for the abalone with duck feets and their famous crabbie with dong fen!

(Here comes the Shark Fins...)

(Very delicious steam fish!!)



(Pork ribs and stir fry vegetables!)



(Seafood noodles...)



(Left: Juicy fruits after dinner)
(Right: Hashima for dessert!!Lurrveee it!)

The whole meal cost SGD 520. But since it's Daddy's birthday and it's once a year thingy, so still okie ba. After dinner, we all went back home. While Dar was helping me with my Outlook settings, Bro suddenly came in and suggested to go catch a midnight movie. So after browsing though the movie selections online, we decided to settle with the movie "Connected". The show was at 1205am. So we all rested a while before going out.

(the Movie - Connected)



(Heex me and Dar before the show start!^^)



(Yeah~~had my bottom salted top sweet popcorn!!)

The show was really exciting! hahax...especially for me I guess. Cos' my heart nearly dropped out during the show. Hahax...I was like panting with the actor and actress in the show when the exciting part came. Lolx...Luckily I don't have heart attack or else I think I might just need an ambulance to get me out from all the fast action. keke...=p Recommended show! =)

Then after the movie...it was time to go back home. And sob sob the stupid and clumsy Bella accidentally scratched my Daddy's car on the way home after sending Dar home. *Crys* Felt so bad that I cried for damn long! Then this morning when Daddy called me, I thought I was going to get a scolding but only to find him asking me what I want for brunch. Luckily Daddy never scold me just now when I was eating my brunch in the living room...he only ask me what happen. *phew* But then again...I still hate my clumsiness. Sobx...I must be super extra careful if I ever drive again...=p

It's gonna be a full day at home today! Guess many people must be out today...but I just wanna stay home and rest...and be kept in my room, in my own world for a day! Just myself...and out of the crowd. Anyways...haPpy children's Day and Selamat Hari Raya to all once again! Enjoy this blessed public holiday today! Smuacks...(^^)

what seems like ages...+*hAPpy BdAe Daddy*

(*Taken on Wednesday when out with Dar's Mummy and Sister*)

It seems like ages since I last updated this space here. And it's not that I've been super busy but it's probably just my fingers playing a little truant here.

Nothing much happened last week...or even for the past weekend, except for the fact that Bella's in her holiday mood again! Been on leave since last Friday afternoon! =) Other then going to eat with Dar's mummy and sister on Wednesday at a "Xing-Hua" dialect (aka Dar's family dialect) eatery to eat at Vivocity, the rest of the work-week last week was rather boring and mundane.

Last Friday, after some training in the morning, Bella went to the doctor to replenish my skin itch medicine and then took a half day MC. After which I went to find Dar (who was patiently waiting for me at home). Had my lunch and slept for the afternoon, before we went out to buy my Daddy's pressie and his fren's pressie at evening time. We had initially intended to eat Spaggadies, but decided to change our minds after seeing the long long queue. We headed to Takashimaya basement foodcourt instead where I got to eat Korean food from one of the branches of the Manna Korean Restaurant. I love their Spicy chicken set a lot!!heex...Dar had his fried prawn noodles and oyster omelette. We didn't get to find my Daddy's pressie though, but we did get to buy the book Dar wanted to buy for his buddy. Dar bought me a wine book too!!heex...time to catch up on my wine stuff! (support http://winelov3r.blogspot.com) hahax...

(My Spicy Chicken Set...prefer the branch at LPS though..)



(Dar eating his fried prawn noodles~)

(my new wine book!Thank you Dar Dar!heex...)

Saturday was just sleeping time for me. Then Sunday, after lunchie, Dar came home with me to help me fix my new bed!!Yeah~~ and thanks to Dar...Bella now have her every own new bed! *smilez*

(Dar @ work..heex)

As for yesterday, I had the rare chance to go to attend lesson with Dar at SIM. But as much as I wanted to accompany him, after 1.5 hours in the lecture theatre...Bella find herself fidgeting around and dozing off at the same time. So when break time finally came, I requested Dar to bring me to the library so I can use the computer and surf net. Fortunately Dar only had one lesson that day (but it last for 3 hrs!), so I waited for him with my half closed eyelids. Finally 1130am came and Dar's released from lesson!!Yippy~

I wanted so much to eat the "Zi Bao Ji i.e. Paper wrapped chicken" that I lurrrveee so much...but only to find it closed when we walked over to the place!!!Arghhhh...so no choice we proceeded to our next destination to eat! I slept through out the bus ride...and finally reached AMK Hub at around 12pm. Went to Ichiban Sushi to eat! It's been soooooo long since I last had sushi!! Dar had a half curry udon while I indulged in my sushi!! Yum Yum!

(Chawamushi!!)




(SushiSss..I had my crabmeat and egg mayo sushi too!!but my mouth action was faster then the camera speed!hahax)

After which we walked around and went to buy shaver for my Daddy for his pressie before going to AMK library to collect Dar's reserved book. And then finally, it was movie time! We went to watch the show "Painted Skin" cos' Dar's favourite actor was in there - Donnie Yan! It's a really nice show...but just that some of the faces inside kinda kept me awake last night! hahax...

(Movie: Painted Skin)

After movie, Dar accompanied me to go for my grocery shopping!!Went to buy my Milk Mania cleansing foam from Skin Food before heading to supermarket to buy foody food for myself! Bought me and my Mum new soft furry slippers to wear at home and also yogurt, chocolates and many more to reward myself for the week. After the grocery buying...Dar then treated me to New York New York for an early dinner (cos' it was only 5pm plus then)..hahax! I tried a new dish which I never tried before while Dar stick on to his Aglio Olio. Then after buying a super super big bottle of shampoo...we took a cabbie home!

(Left: Dar's Bacon & Ham Aglio Olio)
(Right: Mushroom Alfredo with Fried Fish!)

I just got back home for today. Had a uber boring training this morning...after which I went back to office to do my timesheet before heading to Raffles Place to buy wrapper for my Daddy's pressie! It's my Daddy's bade today!!*hApPy Birthday to you Daddy!* and we're going to Goodwood Park area for dinner tonight! Might be having a KTV session after dinner with my colleagues but it's still not confirmed. Hmm...I better go have some rest for now..cos' Bella's been down to quite a bad flu for the whole morning til now. Shall update again soon...*promise* (^^)

~15th to 21st September 2008~

(Dar and me at IKEA shopping!)

Yep I know I took real long to post up my previous post, so here's some make-up by posting my past week up without delay!!hahax...

Nothing very special took place actually...it was just work work and still work. Bella has been traveling down to Alexandra Terrance area for my current audit, but with most of the things there settled, we decided to pull out on Thursday first with the documents we have while waiting for the pending ones from another Administrator. So with this it was work every day from Monday all the way till Thursday for me.

A little treat came by on Wednesday just like the past weeks if you have been reading my blog...and that is dinner with Dar and his mummy and sister. This week we went to Suntec for dinner at 别俯 (Bie Fu Restaurant). I haven't had Ramen there for very long still the branch at China Square moved away. I went back to office from client's place rather early cos' my A10 had a engagement briefing to attend. So I hang around in office till around 545pm before taking a bus down to Suntec to meet Dar. I'm like super handicapped that day cos' Bella forgot to bring her mobile phone out with her that day. The bus took super long to arrive. I finally met up with Dar at around 610pm before we went to Suntec to walk walk. Heex...guess where we went?

(Hahax..here's the Mario game...alrights...Dar won!-.-)



(And here's me with my game station..hahax)

(Dar and me at the game stations~game completed!=p)

We went to the Arcade for games!!haha...cos Dar's mummy and sister will take a while more to reach...so while we were taking a walk at Suntec area, we came across the arcade there and decided to go in. It's been sooooooo long since I last went to an arcade! We played the Mario driving game and also the "colour button" games that needs to keep hitting one (if you know which one I'm talking about..hahax). Though it was just a short gaming session...I totally enjoyed it! After that we went to the basement area to wait for Dar's mummy and sister to reach. But while waiting we found a small corner to settle down and played some golf games on Dar's handphone. hahax...time passed rather fast and our stomach began growling non-stop...hahx!

(Us while waiting for Dar's mummy and sister!)

Then finally Dar's mummy reached and then we proceeded to the restaurant while waiting for Dar's sis to reach. As usual, we ordered quite a lot of food. All of us except for Dar's sis ordered the 4 chilli level ramen while Dar's sis ordered the 2 chilli level ramen. We all left the place uber full! hahax...Then after some shopping at Carrefour, we took a cabbie home!

(We're at Beppu!!love the seasoning...^^)

(Beans!)



(Here's the delicious fried chicken ramen..Dar's sis and me ordered the same thing!Yummy!)



(Left: Dar's seafood ramen!)
(Right: Dar's mummy's Prawn ramen!)



(Wasabi Prawns!!)



(Octopus Balls and Fried Potato balls...heex..nice!)

Like I mentioned, Thursday was pull out day from the engagement..at least for the time being. In fact, we left the client's place rather early at around lunch time. After reaching office, I went to eat Japanese food with my A10 cos' she's like craving for it since Monday..hahax! Then after lunch, went back office to do some work. After having some discussion with my AIC i.e. boss, I left slightly earlier that day cos I wasn't feeling very well.

Friday was the day!!hahax...Bella didn't go work...=p yeah~~ So happen Dar also never go to school to study on that day!!! So after waking up at around 12pm plus, Bella decided to ask Dar to accompany her to IKEA for some shopping! I dressed up and took a cab down to Toa Payoh to meet Dar and his mum cos they went there to do some stuff. By the time I reached they were already eating at Crystal Jade Restaurant cos Dar's mummy had to go work at 3pm. Dar ordered fish porridge for me. Then after eating our brunch there...we took a bus down to IKEA.

(Left: My IKEA boy for the day...heex!Tank cute Dar Dar!)
(Right: Bella trying sofas...=p)

If you can't believe, so do I! Cos' we spent almost 4 hours in there! hahax...We walked through the whole IKEA that day! keke...by 5pm we were feeling a little tired and hungry so we went to the eating area there and ordered ourselves some food.

(Left: The delicious chicken wings at IKEA...Lurrveee it!)
(Right: Uber nice cheese cake to satisfy my sweet tooth cravings!)

(Dar and me after our satisfied meal at IKEA...heex)

And yes I finally bought myself a new bed!! heh heh...as well as some new curtains and boxes to pack my stuff. My maid will be leaving soon...so I really have to pack my things!! I've just changed and had a new door to my bedroom too! Next will be a new study table when the stock comes in...cos the one I like is currently out of stock. Still considering if I should get myself a small 2 seater sofa in my room too...shall see again when I visit IKEA next time for my study table! keke...

(Here's a snap shot of my tired boy after a day of shopping at IKEA...=p)

As for the whole of Saturday and Sunday..it was playing PC games for the whole 2 days plus sleeping and eating at Dar's house! hahax...like a pig i know!

(Oh~ forget to mention...here's a little insight into our duel fried rice competition during Saturday dinner time! hahax)

And now Bella's back home...blogging..and sad that the weekend is going to end in a few hours time. Sobx...but then at least I have my new bed to keep me a little excited!!It's gonna arrive tomorrow!!YippY~~
