My Birthday 2010

Happy 24th Huixian! Thats me. Thanks to Vinz for that cute strawberry cake that had berries tasted a little sour though. :)

Hazel Zhou Caiying, Penny Wee Huixian and Vinz Toh Qing Lin

I love the cake design! Especially with that ribbon! Has anyone told you a red ribbon will bring good wishes and good luck? Thanks, my beloved friends!

The kitchen helper. Lol.. She's pretty.

And they got me a black luggage bag that I requested for. A million thanks. It will come to good use for my upcoming HongKong trip in Oct. :)

Presenting the Sorry Sorry dance. Lol.. I am still quite "in" ya?

I just love this! Great job there!

I miss my havaianas.. It broke after 3 yrs...

At Yun's house while mahjong-ing. Its strawberry shortcake! Ok.. my face looks nerdy. But I dont care! Its my birthday ok. haha.. Thanks Yun and her mum for treating me to a good lunch!

This year, there is not much celebration from Susan's side. Mandy, Sus and Melissa treated me at Watami Jap restaurant. It doesnt taste that well as compared to when I last visited during Christmas 2009. The 3 of them bought a G2000 black Blazer for me. And I love it. I lost mine when I was having prata. haha.. This suit will bless me for the upcoming new job I will have! Yeah girls, Thanks!

And from my SIM friends, they got me a clutch-cum sling bag from Topshop and an Egyptcian looking necklace. Haha..I tried it, and received good feedbacks. Thanks!

By the way, this group is named P3MT. Perfect 3 and Mutou. Perfect 3 refers to left to right, Me, Andrew and Chun. Mutou is Joyce. haha.. She is a bit slow than the rest to catch what we say at times. These are my only 3 friends who accompanied me through my sophisticated life in University. Oh..those were the days...

I am glad, at my age, I still have a bunch of good friends who will always be there for me. Love ya!

Valentine's Day and My Birthday

Valentine's Day was on the first Day of Chinese New Year. Hence, we had an advanced celebration on the 10th, Wed. This was our first Valentine's Day together. :) We went to JB, City Square Mall, Massage and dinner at 大马花园.

And on my birthday itself, 17 Feb, we went back to the same places. Singapore is too small!

We went to JB and tour around City Square Mall. Its been a real long time since I last visited JB. I think the very last time was during my early Uni times. The causeway has changed to a much more clean and safe route. But a longer one. And now, you can never take many "white cards" at a go. The officer in charge will distribute 1 to 1 person.

We had Thai massage at the same place in City Square Mall. Shop's name is "Thai Odyssey".

A foot massage and Traditional full body Thai massage on 2 different days.



Had a room for just 2 of us. Pardon my Blackberry 2 megapix. I know it sucks..

We had changed clothes!.. Very cheap prices and good services!
Foot massage 60 mins for RM50, which is SGD around $25. Traditional Full Body Massage 60 mins for RM75, which is SGD around $37.50. In my hometown, it will cost $100 ++ for full body massage!..
We watched a movie too, 72 Tenants. And its in Cantonese. I like to hear the real voice of each actor and actresses. It sounds more real. But poor Dear Dear has to bear with the subtitles because he cant understand Cantonese. Movies at Cathay City Square is only around $5! So happy! haha..

Next up, we had seafood!

And this is the place! 大马花园。Not only black pepper crabs we had tasted, there were crayfish, oats prawns and veggies. We shared a glass of sugarcane as it was quite big size. Everything costed us only around RM80+. In Singapore? oh no.. one crab is already that price.

Hehe.. I love this picture taken on a escalator.

On the first day of Chinese New Year and Valentine's Day, I went to his house for dinner and brought him my homemade butter cookies! hehe.. My first try. With the help of my Dad.

Heart shapes and stars. And as you can see, some of pieces were thick, some were thin. haha.. oops..

Dad's hand at work. Laying the cookies on the tray.

Into the oven!..

Decorated the butter cookies with Hershey's chocolates and chocolate rice. "J" for Jia Gui, my Dear's chinese name.
Into the container, with a heart shaped label saying "For My Valentine" :)

And DearDear says it tasted nice. hehe.. Cant believe I did it for my first try.

And on my home desk, an additional to my favourite corner. His handmade photoframe. hehe.. I was quite surprised by his artwork.

Here he appeared at my doorstep when the clock struck 12 for 17th Feb 2010. Thank you Dear Dear!

It was a great celebration. And next up, my birthday with my friends!

Passed my Driving Test at the First Time!

This is probably the best birthday gift I have given to myself since last year. In 2009, I have only given myself a Kate Spade Red Patent wallet which is so far, 2nd most expensive wallet after my Patent Miu Miu from my friends.

But this year, is even more expensive and meaningful. I am a qualified driver now! Though it was a long belated birthday gift due to the test dates, but I am a very happy girl now!


Before the test, I prayed many times to Lord for a not so old tester and friendly one. At the driving centre, I have never seen any young tester before. But on my test date, my Lord gave me a surprise. This tester is only in his 30s I bet. Hooray! First fear removed.Throughout the test, I was told to drive on this road that is much shorter than my usual practises. But Ubi is never a easy road to drive. Always be cautious. And if you are getting ready for a driving test, do gear up more in the circuit. Its there where they purposely want to catch your mistakes.

After the test, I met up with Dear to have a mini celebration.
At Somerset 313's Marche:

I must say I quite miss the Marche at Heerens long time ago. We had Marche Crepe that has ham, capisium sauce, mushroom butter sauce.. And its nice!

All time favourite : Rosti!

I think I really love Dear's hp Cam. Its 5 megapix, as compared to my lousy Blackberry...only 2 megapix. Damn it. And I cant take pics of Tavia Yeung when I saw her at airport a few days ago. Yes you are right. She was in Singapore for 1 day with Jessica Hsuan, Miu Kiu Wai, Bobby Ouyang and Eric Tsang Chi Wai for a private function at Hard Rock Hotel Sentosa. Ok I missed the pics with only Tavia Yeung's smily face imprinted on my memory now. She is superly slim and beautiful! Ok, back to me, the happy girl with driving license mailing to me in 4 weeks time.

Heh!

Pictures of his 27th

As I was uploading pictures from my blackberry to my computer, I came across this picture. Which reminded me how I have squeezed my brain juice to get a cake that will be memorable to him. Its his first birthday we celebrated together. His birthday falls on the 27th October 1982.

I rushed to Tampines One Mall to get his cake from Bakerzin. Many ideas had been flowing since days before. And finally I settled down with this design I did myself. There were a mix of cakes. Sumatra and the other one with roses, which I cant find the name from Bakerzin's website anymore. But they all tasted heavenly chocolatey.. Ooosh..

Beautifully decorated for Him. With lots of love.

Just like any other days

Chinese New Year was just ok for this year. As usual for the past decade it has always been, bland. Nothing to woo ha about.

But I just love my brother and sis-in-law who stayed over since Eve. Though we spend most of the time watching tv. But its simple peace and joy.

Jesus, Happy Chinese New Year. Please help to ask Satan get out of my life. He keep haunting me with those broken pieces among those suppose to be beautiful memories. I am exhausted.

Finally I have sent Chinese New Year First Day away. I think the happy First Days of Chinese New Year had died since my Grandma left too. Bye Bye..

Bangkok Trip Day 4

And here's the last day of my BKK trip!



His sad face .. We are leaving.. Awww...

From the 2 of us. Wow we still have extra 20 kg! Oh manz.. should have buy more.

Inside the airport.



To explain the picture above.

Even before we left, he must have Pizza Company! Its located at the F wing.

And for this eye mask, its really useful when on board as sun shining in.
I really love my Bangkok Trip. Its the first time I went travelling with Dear Dear. I know more are coming on its way for the both of us. Jesus in you I put my trust.

And we will have many first time coming in. First Valentine's Day, My First time celebrating Birthday with him, My first time driving, First Easter Holiday, his Uni graduation..lots and lots..
May the blessings overflow on us!

Bangkok Trip Day 3

Hello people! I know its been quite some time since I blogged on the Second day of my trip. Chinese New Year is nearing, so how is ur spring cleaning? I did a wardobe clearing and cleaning this afternoon with hot sun shining into my room. Manz...its dehydration. Right back to Third day of my Bangkok Trip.

Breakfast at Samran place. We decided to have a break from American breakfast and chose food that are simple. Chicken rice noodles soup and Chicken Porridge. Hehe.. I thought my noodles tasted better than Dear's porridge.

And as we are nearing to the end of our trip, still unable to find my A&W restaurant, we opened our mouth and asked the hotel receptionist. She said its just nearby alittle further down from our hotel. Oh my god! Hence, without any hestitation, we sped up to find it after dressing up. And there we were!

We had the famous waffle ice-cream, twister fries and rootbeer float. This is A&W super waffle meal which costed $122 Baht. Hooray!~ Finally I had A&W after so many years! Since I was in lower primary school you know. Thats more than a decade!

He with decorative background. Missing it!

Slurp! Slurp!

That day, we went through the markets infront Pratunam Centre. Whereas Pratunam Centre itself has nothing much to shop around. We went passed Big C Shopping Centre as well. And there I bought my Mum a pair of shoes. I hope she likes it! Were initially from Baiyoke Garment Shopping Centre and Pratunam Markets. And as we reached opposite Platinum Mall, we came across this crepes roadside stall. So, we gave it a try. The aunties were friendly. however, I still prefer Platinum Mall basement level 's crepes stall.

Crossed the roads and found A&W at Pantip Plaza. I just have to take photo with the mascot. Its gone in Singapore you see.

Cheeky Cheeky!

Before we saw A&W, there were many roadside eating stalls infront of Pantip Plaza. We had some of it and mostly tasted delicious. But the best was still coconut ice-cream. We got it at 10 Baht. There were peanuts and nata de coco. Its definitely a great refreshing dessert! You cant miss it.

When the night started to fall, we went to Yaowarat, the Chinatown of Bangkok.

Dinner was at T&K Seafood. If you are taking cab, the cab driver will surely stop somewhere around here. Hence its not difficult to find. Look at that spread of food! Crabs, Shark's fin soup (Thick and hot!You can just spot the Shark's fin!) , large Steamed Fish and Kang Kong veggies. Wow! I am hungry now!

Muackz!~ And that kiss went to his favourite...

Steamed Fish! Looks great right? The whole dinner costed us 830 Baht. It maked the most expensive meal of our trip but I still think its worth it. hahaha...Look at that fish again!

Back to the bustling side, Siam Paragon's Gourmet Food Market. He was in a daze.

"Haiz..this is my last night and its ending..when am I coming again?..."

Outside Siam Paragon.

The loots from our 4 days 3 nights trip.

"Ah!"...

Another successful pose.
