Dear Bloggie,

It has been a busy Wednesday for me.. Too many Itineraries to do up, and too many Guests coming in to Office, and too many purchases and other misc items that is screaming for my attention. Office has been exceptionally cold..

But I was too busy to really moan over it. Its my Pak Tor Wednesday!! Boyfriend came by Office to pick me up from work and we headed down to Parkway.. I had the yummy Mee Rebus and Grass Jelly.. and since I am at Parkway, there is no way I could say no to my Favorite Chocolate Chip Icecream @ Scoopz. Ran a little errands (Toto-buying and Supermarket-shopping) and we head home shortly after coz I am real tired. I even give my Dramas a miss and head straight to bed; when Boyfriend called for the usual nitely chat, I have already doze off.. I.. am going on Diet.. Packed Strawberries for Brekkie (ate 3 and that is 7 calories) and White Bread with a slice of Ham for Lunchie. Will head home for a Jog (hope the lazy bug dont get better of me) and give Dinner a miss. I'll try to stick to this routine and see if it works. But well, Boyfriend is not too happy with this as he thinks I am not getting enough nutrients. No choice - I notice my 小胖's Tummy is getting smaller while mine is getting bigger. He must have stick a tube somewhere and transferred some eeky fats over to me. =(

Okie.. that's it for now. I have to get back to work as there's really plenty to do. One day to Friday!! Let's count down to the weekend together!!

Dear Bloggie,


I think.. I am hooked to photo editing; somehow I like putting all the photos into 1. Even there is nothing interesting going on.. but I still will want to just put what-ever pathetic photos that I have. Went for my long over due Facial last evening after work.. I am glad that the Beautician did not talk to me as I am really tired.. I hate it when the Beautician gets all chirpy and wants to talk. I am not much of a Conversationist; especially to strangers.
Anyway.. Boyfriend swing by Orchard to pick me up after my Facial. Awfully sweet of him~~* Headed down to Adam Road Hawker for some famous Nasi Lemak; well.. it is really nice.

See... there is nothing interesting, but I just cant help but come in post a little something.

I have been gaining weight (I mean.. just take a look at all the Food I've been eating) and I think its time to do something about it. Instead of running 8km to get rid of 500 calories per day; I shall work at how to consume 500 calories lesser each day. And 3500 calories less will equate to 1 pound (which is 0.453kg).. There is no fool-proof way and no short-cut; 一步一脚印。

Okie.. thats all for now. I've got quite a lot to settle at work today. Have a fantastic Wednesday!!

Dear Bloggie,

.A Random Post.
[1] I realised that there are really people reading my Little Cyber Space!! I notice the counter has been jumping at a rather fast rate.. hence I've been keeping tabs of the number recently. Over the weekend.. my Cottage by the River got hit 60+ times; and from yesterday till this morning.. it went up by another 10. So well.. at least its nice to know someone is actually interested in my rather mundane life. =)
[2] Boyfriend got to work late last Thursday.. so I whipped out a simple Dinner for him and he swing by my House after work to grab his Lunch Box. I was so busy cooking that I forgot to take a picture of the finish product.. But I packed a replica for my Lunch on Friday.
My New My Melody Lunch Box~* I am so Loving it!! Anyway.. I am a 'private limited' when it comes to cooking.. Just some Fried Chicken Karrage, Fry Eggs and Stir Fried Assorted Mushrooms with Oyster Sauce. Boyfriend said its good; but 我看他也不敢说不好吃啦..
[3] Boyfriend went out with his Uni Pals last Friday.. and I slept from 6pm on Friday evening till.. .. .. 9am on Saturday. 厉害吧! I am seriously exhausted.. packed in too much activities for the long CNY Break with all the steamboat, mahjong and 5km jog.
[4] So.. we went out on a Saturday!!

I was once on this Ramen Crave previously and requested for Japanese Ramen at 12 midnight.. Since then Boyfriend did a little research on Ramen in case I threw him another stunt as such. Mai siao siao ah, he is well-prepared.. This Tampopo @ Ngee Ann City B2 (newly open branch) was highly reccomanded in the itsy bitsy webbie.. so we tried that for Dinner. Well.. I am Loving my Ramen (with Katsu) but Boyfriend does not like his Udon. My noodles is cook just right and soup is simply devine, but my fried pork cutlet is a little on the hard side but I dont have much issue with that. So next time do try their Ramen.. that's what they are famous for! Walked over to Cenileisure after Dinner.. and had my Favorite Peach Yogurt Icecream from .. .. .. okie, that name slipped off my mind. [Edited: Its Frolick!!] Tell me how not to get FAT.. caught the movie - Nine. Its a musical sort of Movie, the plot is kinda silly.. but the music and dance are good. Headed down to Yishun Dam to chill out a little more after the show before we headed home.

[5] Sunday was updated in another post.. it was a wonderful day out with Boyfriend and his Friends.

[6] Meet up with my Aunts + Cousin for Dinner on Monday (that's last night)!!

Seoul Garden has went all computerized!! Its rather like Sakae Sushi.. you just click on the Food Items and they will have it delivered to your table. On one hand.. I rather like this as we could all be seated on the table chit chatting instead of moving around getting the food. But with this system.. there is no way I can get the desired quantity (like just 1 pcs of crab stick when I am already super full) and I realised there is a decrease in Food Variety. Anyway.. I ate a little too much and am still feeling rather bloated even after 1 night. Argh..

[7] Did you realised I am grouping up the photos now.. Ermm.. this makes uploading of photos easier as there are lesser photos to upload. But I have to spend a little time before hand to edit the photos.. Pros and Cons; but I find this easier..

[8] Another pack week.. Facial on Tuesday, Pak Tor on Wednesday, Jogging on Thrisday, Tentative Poly Dinner on Friday, Belly Man's Birthday Party on Saturday and CNY Family Dinner on Sunday.. I need more sleep~~*

[9] I have decided that I have enough of my fringe and am going to let it grow back.. Guess for the next 1 mth or so will be the last batch of photos with me + short fringe (or bangs as the youngsters calls it.. we need to keep up with times you know.. keke.)

[10] Okie.. enough of my Random-ness. I have to get back to work... But on a side note to HY: Yupz.. I am a Happy Girl now with my Apple. =) See you Darling next Friday!!

Dear Bloggie,

Had a busy Sunday!!
Boyfriend picked me up from Home and we swing by Sengkang to pick up his Friend - Belly Man and his Girlfriend, Niuniu. And together.. we headed down to the Museum!! Well.. the Exhibition is not exactly very well lay out. Other then the larger obeliks are displayed like above, there are smaller exhibits kept in concurved walls. I have no issues with that; but the text for the exhibit is on the convurved walls. This means that to read the text you have to literately press your face to the glass - this means at one time only one person can read it. And to make matter worst, the descriptions are pretty lengthy and hard to understand (given all the history background).. But nevertheless, it is pretty impressive as they brought in real Mummies - as in the real corpse. There is this Real Body all wrapped up and displayed.. pretty scary in my opinion. We covered the Exhibition in less then 2 hours.. and took a walk around the Museum. Lousy photographer leh.. make my calfs look so big. Me + Boyfriend and Niuniu + Belly Man. There is this New Exhibition on the History of Paperbag.. very small but nevertheless interesting. And with that.. we bidded Good-bye to the Musuem and went in search of Food. The Parklane WTM... me like! Just as we're leaving the Musuem, their Friend - Miye called and jio-ed for an impromtu gathering at his place. After a few more calls over WTM, we headed down to Yishun to pick up Ryan's Daddy.. Made a detour to Jalan Kayu; and we went to Miye's House at 6pm... After so many Sunny Days, the Sky finally decided to reward all with a little rain.

And with that.. quite a big Group gathered at Miye's Place and Gambling commerced while I continue with my PSP. Niuniu ordered Pizza and we had a late Dinner.. Ryan's Mummy called around 10pm and Ryan's Daddy got to make his way home.. So with that, we bidded the group Goodbye as they are starting on Mahjong (I really wonder how they are going to work the next day) and send Rayn's Daddy back before heading Home.

Its been a Good weekend; and its back to work now.. Till then, have a good week kae~*

Dear Bloggie,

More photos update!!

Wednesday has officially became my Pak Tor Day with Boyfriend.. Even thou we have been meeting on a daily basis over the long weekend; Boyfriend insisted that we should still meet despite being tired and he has plenty of work to be completed. So.. we meet up at Orchard and had Dinner @ Ion. Decided to let him try out this yummy Japanese Restaurant @ Ion B4 that Bestie brought me during my Birthday Eve last year.. He.. is already half-way into his Food when I suddenly exclaim "我还没拍照".. He quickly re-arrange the Food to make it look photographable. Then.. I got him to demostrate the 喜怒哀乐.. Not too bad right, keke.. can see the difference. While having Steamboat at Bestie house on 初二, DL promised Besties that he'll buy her 2 house if he won the 5.9mil Toto first price (needless to say.. he didn't win.). And while we're at Toy'r'us after Dinner.. He suddenly pointed out to these 2 and tell me "I also buy you 2 house.. nah!" One thing about Boyfriend is.. He insist that I have to eat Breakfast every morning. So.. he bought me Dunkin Dounuts for Brekkie. And I choose this~~* Some Tiger's Tail!! It has my favorite vanilla custard inside; but just that the orange gluey topping (the Tiger's Tail) is a little too sweet for my liking. Yesterday.. Active and Passive brought us out for Lunch - 我们的开年饭! 开年饭一定要有鱼生,我们得捞个风生水起,龙凤升天!Lunch was at Tung Lok @ Paramount Hotel.. The food on the whole is good. Keke.. I got a bit lazy to upload the photos. Lunch was good and there are plenty of witty and light-hearted exchanges through-out the meal..

Today is 大年初六了,and Boyfriend is meeting his Uni Friends for Dinner. I am supposed to meet up with EM today; but till now no sound no picture. But I am extremely sleepy today and will not mind heading home early for my well-deserved beauty rest.

Okie~~* Its Friday and I've gotta get some work done. Have a Fantastic Weekend ah!!

Dear Bloggie,

This will be... My Valentine's Day 2010. =) 14th February falls on 大年初一 (okie.. tell me who doesnt know it) this year.. I was on leave (Company's Forced Leave) on the 12th February, the Boyfriend took leave on that day too and said we'll celebrate our Valentine's Day on the 12th February.

Boyfriend is "in-charge" of the Day's itinerary.. He told me he'll pick me up from Home at 12:30pm; but at 15min to the pick-up time.. He sms-ed and told me he'll be late - This is SO not him. Finally at 12:45pm..

Boyfriend: I reached.. You recieved?
Me: Recieved what?

(At the same time walking to the Door and opening up; and I saw a guy with a bouquet of Flowers)

After signing off the Flowers.. I went down with my Pretty Daisy. And this.. is just the beginning of my Surprises..

Boyfriend told me he will be meeting his friends for Coffee the day before.. so I simply head home after work on Thursday while He have some Guy-Guy Time. But nope... He actually meet up with his Uni Pals for Dinner and headed down to his Secondary School Friend's house for some Baking Session at 9+pm. He baked me 1 whole big box of Chocolate Chip Cookies; and if this is not enough, I have 5 special ones with my Name spelt out in Chocolate Chips. *sweeeet* It took more then 3hr for this 1 batch of Cookies to be out; hence there wasnt even any extra ones for his Friends to try. And... this is not all. My Silly Boy said He spend more then an hour at Youtube learning how to fold these little hearts from those Videos; and He bought those thick construction papers instead of the thin color papers.. resulting in plenty of blister all over his hands. There are a total of... 141 hearts; why 141.. go figure out yourself. And.. a watch. He really went all out to pamper me. He had wanted to get some White Omega but He couldnt find it.. but seriously, I was never into Branded Watches and He has really put in so much effort thus far and I really dont need anything else from him. But pretty right.. very dressy. Next Stop: Bukit Purmei!! I have always love Lormee and he always tell me the Best Lormee is at Bukit Purmei.. This type of Branded Lormee only operates for Breakfast and Lunch; hence we took the opportunity and headed down South for the Best Lormee in Town! After Lunchie.. we headed down all the way to the West - Science Center! And we check out hte Body World Exhibition.. Dont see the exhibition small small; we spend more then 2hours there.. It is rather interesting and infomative. Since we still have some time to spare, we went to IMM and I spend.. quite some time at Daiso. =) And then.. Dinner Time~* He made reservations at this Italian place @ Bukit Timah. Waiting for the food... And I started doodling on the Yellow Paper with the Crayons provided. Ugly I know.. I can never draw. But I can draw Alphabets~* Use to do this alot back in Secondary School... Ordered a Large Pizza to share.. The Sunny-side up adds so much taste to it. And also some Wings as side... I know Portobello Mushroom are supposed to be BIG.. but this is an appetiser - and it turned out to be GIANTIC! Needless to say... We cannot finish the Food. And I continue to doodle...This is a very nice place with good food to boast.. Just in case you are interested; this is the Address. Ask for the out-door courtyard; the ambience there is Fantastic... =) This is not the end.. Boyfriend made reservations for a 10pm Movie - Percy Jackson & the Lightning Thief at Vivo City.. This is another very nice show!! I have the tendency to fall asleep during Movie recently.. but I was wide wide awake for the whole show (that will tell you how nice this is). With that.. we went for a Car Wash and Fuel at Thomson Road; and I got Boyfriend to take the long way back to my house.

Its... been ages since anyone celebrated Valentine's Day with me with such Effort. I was single last year; and the year before I was made to carry a bouquet of heavy flowers and stood in the wind outside SIM's Gate for an hour waiting (while Ex went sending Classmate (which I presume is some Bitch) around).

But then.. I am really blessed right now with Boyfriend showering so much Love and Effort on me - what have I done right again to deserve all these I do wonder at times.. Noone has ever baked me anything and folded me so many tiny hearts. And to have a Big Guy with a busy schedule doing this for Me.. I must have really done something really right. So.. That is my First Valentine's Day with Boyfriend - its been a Fantastic One. Hope your's is just as good... =)

Dear Bloggie,

恭喜发财、万事如意!今天是大年初四,我已回到办公室。。开工大吉!
[除夕]

在家里赖到了大约三点钟,就和父母一同到了婆婆家。。如往常,除夕夜我们一家会围着桌一同吃火锅。一家人团团圆圆的。。吃了团圆饭,大人们就搬出麻将桌。。小孩们也不甘示弱。。玩起二十一点。有人摆起了阵来。。有财神爷护驾,手气特别好。到底是谁这么有备而来呢。。原来是我的小表妹。。=)小赌一番后,我就回家去了。。洗了澡后,男友就来接我。我们在车上一同倒数着大年初一,和我们的第一个情人节。他约了大学同学在Thomson Road小聚一番。。大家喝着酒、聊着天。。

[大年初一]

大年初一起了个大早。。穿新衣,戴新包。。从头到脚都备了新装。先到了River Valley的居士林拜祭外公。。之后才到外婆家给外婆拜年。在外婆家见了一年也就见那一次面的伯伯和阿姨、表哥和表姐。。一年就见这一次面,感觉很生疏。吃了中饭,我就启程到下一个目的地。在去婆婆家之前。。先到了Joo Chiat 的庙宇拜拜。刚好有兴师团,场面好热闹。这就是我所喜欢的农历新年。到了婆婆家,我竟然累倒睡着了。TT傍晚时分来婆婆家载我,我们就到HL家去打麻将!那天手气极好,玩了两圈我竟然赢了八十元!男友十点多来HL家接我。。我们约了好友们一起看新年喜剧。独乐乐、不如众乐乐。。我用赢来的钱请了大伙儿看戏。

[初二]

约了好友们4点在SengKang。。一如往常,大家都不守时。我们就边喝咖啡、边等迟到的。大伙来其后,我们就到超市办货。新年的这火锅聚会,是我和好友们每年的惯例。男友负责把饮料放进冰箱。。好友夸他摆得好整齐 - 这也好,由住家男的风范。=)我和好友也不是省油的灯。。没三两下功夫,我们就准备好整桌的菜。=)先来张大合照。。开动咯!!吃了饭,我们这新年贺岁片。。看着他们打麻将,我们的手也痒了起来。男友就开车去我家拿麻将。。我还觉得我们超夸张的。开台前,我发现房间的一角。。有个Miu Miu的小聚会。近六千元就这样摆在地上。打了牌,我没输赢。。可是小倩一家赢两家-赢了四十多!在超市时,我们赫然发现当晚Toto重奖金有五百多万。。我们就各买格的,碰碰运气。。我想我今年还真是气势佞人,竟然中了四个号码!从开年至今,我还真的是财源滚滚。。早前我们买了Fortune Cookie。。就分了分给大家。今年Negative的人请离我远些!我得保持乐观,好运才会往我这来!时间还早。。反正人多,我们就起来玩二十一点。这整个新年,我。。不是吃,就是赌。:p

[初三]

初二晚我们凌晨一点多离开,我还看戏看到近三点睡觉。可是初三哦起了个大早 (早上七点哦,还真是有够早的),男友来我家接我。。应为好友约了大伙儿一同到东海岸去。大吃大喝了,现在也该动一动了。。男友陪我跑了五公里,还是那种一口气跑完的的那种。上个礼拜我只能一口气跑完四公里,当时我已经是筋疲力尽到了极限了。如果不是男友的鼓励和支持,我想我还真是没法完成。。之后就和好友、DL 和RL一块儿在Old Town 吃早餐。累死了的我。。难看死了。男友把我送回家,让我小睡片刻。。之后我们就去Marina Square去。我们的晚餐。。之后逛了一会儿,就一起看戏去。Valentine's Day这部片,那天男友的大学同学极力推荐。。我们就乘着空当去看。大牌云集、剧情温馨动人。。这还真是套好片。之后,男友就把我送回家去了。。应为初四是个工作日。

我的农历年,就这样。。=)

Abrupt end I know.. a bit anti-climax. But I've been on these for close to 2hour.. Valentine's Day up next.. =)
