Merry Christmas!

This year’s christmas was a simple one. I didn’t like the super ex course meals which restaurants love to come up with every year for christmas after being raped ($150++/) once at Serenity Bar back in 2009. So, this year V brought me to batam (for R&R and massage) for a pre-christmas trip and then to a simple dinner & movie date on the eve of christmas!

A&W straight after check-in! WE LOVE MALAYSIA’S ONE MORE

VERY SIMPLE BRIGHT ROOM I LIKE

LOOKING VERY PLEASED AFTER MASSAGE!

We decided to call for room service at 1am (SG TIME). Mad sinful. But the food worth the sinfulness, it rocked!

Woke up to breakfast in the morning and whilst eating, the staff there danced ! LOL

I can see how passionate are they ! Very nice, polite staff, will want to stay there again if I were to head to batam again!

Christmas eve, we had a platter for 2. It stated for 2 person, but it turned out to be too much for 2!

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Watched Mission Impossible 4 thereafter, very nice movie!

Post-christmas celebration feast out tmr with E and G! YAY.

Shall go bake my brownies now for tmr..

when 24 hours are never enough.

One word to describe last week: HECTIC.

Assignment deadline, tests, work, gatherings… and my cousin came to Singapore for holiday! So, i didn’t really gave her great hospitality for which i felt bad. Anw, it was a hectic yet fulfilling week although I have alot of sleeping debts to clear. Okay so here’s how my enjoyable week flew by!

Antoinette with CXY! Hehe. Like finally.

Bubbly girl excited to dig in!

Our verdict: The cakes were more flavorful than their mains. Will go back there for HI TEA.

Shopping, lunch, tea, dinner with cousin, cousin and cousin-in-law!

Brunetti for tea, the cakes were like omfg good esp the new york cheesecake! Too excited already, so no nice piccas.  Dinner was at Porn’s at Liang Seah, the tom yum goong was fab! I miss the spiciness now.

AS SWEET AS SUGAR COUPLE

Adventures of India //Part 1

17th October 2011 – 25th October 2011

10 DAYS IN INDIA.

My family, together with my relatives (bridegroom’s family) made a trip to India, Shillong to attend my cousin’s wedding. It was a pretty great experience as we managed to step foot in a more laid back, not as advanced as Singapore, 3rd world country. I must say, India is really a beautiful place. If you are an adventurous person who enjoys sightseeing more than shopping, you should really make a trip there!  This trip, I’ve learnt to really treasure what I have here now, having the latest technologies and concrete roof above our head when we sleep at night. When I was there in Shillong, I see some people and kids (especially) who lived in poverty going round to their famous shopping place/ town area to beg for money, wanting to help but we could not as we knew that once we started giving.. a huge crowd of kids would come and surround you. Anyway, my cousin-in-laws’ arranged a really pretty guesthouse to accomodate us, we have housekeepers, servers and all in the house, so practically everything we want, we just ask and we will be served. However, we learnt that whenever we want to eat at a certain time, we need to let them know way in advance as it there takes about an hour before your food is served (this waiting time also happens when you dine in restaurants!) hahaha. The weather was AMAZING throughout the trip. :)

It was terribly long journey to Shillong, seriously it felt as though I was attempting a journey to the west! hahaha. It took us a good 2 days to reach Shillong.  We took a 4 hour plus flight from KL to Kolkata (formerly known as Calcutta) followed by an hour of domestic flight from Kolkata to Guwahati and then about a 4hr car ride UPHILL to Shillong. The worst thing was that, the journey uphill was STEEP, NARROW, DUSTY AND BUMPY. :O

That’s my aunt and I with a stretch of old lockers along our transit rest rooms. Yup, we stayed a night over at Kolkata’s airport, due to our domestic flight timing.

Mummy looking really happy in front of a mama shop, at our rest stop uphill!

One of India’s signature happenings.

Everyone looking tired…

FINALLY

Yes, this is where we stayed. BEAUTIFUL

The next day, woke up to a really beautiful morning with GOOD QUALITY FRESH AIR

After breakfast, we (DADDY AND I) decided to CAMWHORE!

Thereafter, SUPER HEAVY RAIN.

We missed the elephant falls.

Anyway, we managed to see Mount Everest during our domestic flight due to the good/clear weather. The air crew mentioned that it is not a everyday thing, so lucky us!

Looks pretty mini here though. Geeez

Sightseeing post next!

Finally

It’s been quite some time since we last met. Love time like this, spending a night out with my girls & vin soe.

As you know, I can never have the patience for anything (& I have a really intolerable bad temper); parallel parking has always been my fear/pain.

Ytd, I could finally park into it, thanks to dad for giving me crash course (3 attempts) the day before HAHA.

So now, I would love to be able to drive around ulu places to haunt for good food!

Bedok 85 + Udders last night.

We missed you, Joyce. <3

Using Lynette’s phone cam effects, looking koreanish.

Skipped school and flew to KL to attend this!

It all worth it as it’s a family reunion in advance (as we are not going to KL for CNY this year! ) !

Brunch @ Arbite.

It’s been a long time since we went out of the East/date to look for food! Started out Sunday with Brunch at Arbite, Upper Serangoon Gardens.

Pretty nice place to dine in with very simple ikea-ish furnitures!

THE GLUTTONSZS

The food was really GOOD especially their main courses (wins FFT).

As for breakfast, we prefer Food for Thought!
