9th April 2010 (Friday)
baby picked me up at my workplace (something that he seldom do =p) and we headed to town for some shopping... he sneakily bought me 1 big bag of famous amos cookies while i was in the ladies, hehe i was pleasantly surprised... i <3 famous amos cookies, they are so sinfully yummy!
met lianny pie and dayne for dinner... it was great catching up =D love all the food we ordered at sushi tei!
10th April 2010 (Saturday)
saturday breakfast is now beoming a routine affair for jie and i hee :) we will go out have breakfast and then come back to take a nap =p been like this for the past 3-4 weeks already omg fatty max haha!
this week is bk breakfast yumz! after taking a nap, both of us headed to orchard with mum... had an early dinner at thai express before we did our nails and shopped around... the tom yum that day is really spicy T_T
i love the colour of my toes hee! gonna buy the polish online!
also bought new wedges at trois+inch... it is super pretty and comfy! <3 <3
came home to new online shopping loots in my mailbox heh! my humble review! pardon the messy bed and room cause we just came back =p
i am super in love with the mint colour, very very pretty colour in real life! my 1st mint dress teehee!
the wo cai show that night was SOOO funny can, i almost died laughing... the segment at the end whereby they did a makeover for short-haired girls to see if they are deemed to be prettier when they have long hair... they got 2 tomboys and the change was so funny! ahhh funniest episode ever!
11th April 2010 (Sunday)
went to the soka centre early morning for meeting, feeling fulfilled after the end of it :) had nice prawn mee for breakfast with sis and mum, but the downside is we queued half an hour for it =x
went swimming in the afternoon with baby and sis but i think the overall exercise effect is zero cause we had a feast during dinner at chinatown =x fish head, claypot rice, sambal sotong and the most ultimate sinful of all, 3 big durians =p
and some silly photos i took while lazing on the bed =D i found a new spectacle stand TEEHEE
who's cuter? =D
and my favourite pic of the month:
if only every weekend can be like this *contented sigh* =D
one day, i will make damn sure i visit this place :)
i hope no one is reading this right now, such a shame that my 1st entry after such a long hiatus has to be an emo one...
for the longest time, i had been stuck in this situation, i tried ways to get out of it but i can't. maybe i am incompetent enough, maybe i am just not capable of doing anything decent.
all i want is an opportunity to prove my worth... i tried plan A thrice and not even once did i succeed. i tried to go for plan B countless times since Aug/Sep 2009, but for the past half year, i did not even have the chance to execute plan B. what went wrong, i really dunno. i was disheartened, but i chose to carry on trying because i really believe, one day, my time to shine will come.
for the past 2 days, i tried to think positively so that i can have the strength to carry on, it worked. but just for 2 days. i was still patting myself on the back for the great effort put in. today, everything came crashing down again... all the walls i had painstakingly built up got destroyed in just that short moment. it hurts as much as having your heart broken; the dull ache in your heart, the tear streaks on one's face and the same helplessness...
i've learnt that i gotta fight this battle alone because no one else understands... yes, sad to say, not even you... maybe i can't blame you cause you really don't have the time... we had both underestimated the game of life, we both need more at the same time and yet we can't give more.
my decision right now is to shut you off for the time being with regards to my negativity, perhaps i will be back when i have the emotional capability to bring back positivity to your life :) this is the best isn't it, it's sorta like status quo whereby you have no time for my negativity so whether you know it or not, there will be not much difference... in return, you get to stay focused and perhaps it might help you 2 years later whereby you won't end up to be in the same situation as me now. i will miss you but i need to be strong for the sake of everything.
still waiting for baby to pass me the camera so i can upload pics =x
meanwhile, i've started twitter-ing teehee... follow me here! http://twitter.com/iceblueclouds
twitter is more fun and convenient =p
happy 4th year anniversary baby!
Hehe it's been a long time since I blogged =x promise to update soon for December... :)
I had a great Christmas so far, and I'm really satisfied right now :) my prezzies were awesome!!! :) till then, tata~
had a road trip to malacca with my family during the oct deepavali long weekend :) bro drove all 7 of us there hehe... we set off at around 6am and reached around 9am... caught some sleep in the car and i brought my smelly pillow along shiokness!
just reached...
after searching around, we finally found this coffee shop that sis wanted to bring us to for breakfast... the fried wantons are super heavenly... we ordered 2 rounds cause we just can't have enough of it! cheap and good breakfast!
next, we went shopping cause we can't check in to our guesthouse yet... there's very little cabs in malacca, everyone either travel around by car or bicycle... and so we were driving around constantly too, fun! cause i have all i need in the car hur hur...
love the architecture there!
and they have a newton food village too lol
mahkota shopping centre... they got my favourite malaysia shoe brand, vincci!!! :)
had durian chendol at san shu gong, OMG it is the BEST durian chendol i had ever tasted... reallyyy~
the lift at our guesthouse, so old school horz haha
we then went to the famous eatery which was very near our guesthouse to get some nonya kueh for tea break... the kueh kueh, cookies and nonya cuisine here is absolutely the best according to my sis! and i gotta agree after having dinner there, it's sooo good! (pictures later)
so after buying the kueh, we walked around to explore the area... i really love the shophouses here, all so antique looking and full of perenakan flavour :*)
this is actually a peranakan museum... we went there for a tour the next day and there were people to explain to you the peranakans' lifestyle and their culture...
pretty riverside
san shu gong! they are famous in malacca or rather malaysia for their local specialty products
we saw this fish pancake outside the shop and it looks quite good and we bought 1 box to try... it really taste as good as it looks... YUM! i went back for more the next day and bought 1 box to bring home =p
for dinner, we went back to nancy's kitchen again to try out the nonya cuisine :) so so so good! i love the babi ponteh there whee! it's like pork stew and the sauce is fantabulous!
popiah and kueh pie tee
sambal sotong and salted duck soup
otah and mixed veggie... the veggie looks damn normal but it is so yummy!
my favourite babi ponteh is the one below in a bowl... no close up pic cause too blur =(
there is also a stretch of pubs along the road and for that night, they had halloween decorations up though it's sorta early cause it's only mid-oct...
we went to this pub later on at night for drinks :)
the highlight of malacca is actually their daily night pasar malam at jonker street... they really sell all sorts of things and it stretches forever... we took a few hours to finish the whole stretch... all of us managed to buy stuff here and i really love the pasar malam to bits... it's super interesting but very crowded as well!
pitstop for chendol :)
at malacca, all you can do is to keep eating and eating! hahaha... they have really nice authentic food here and i kept eating since morning lol... we bought lotsa pineapple tarts and kueh bangkit to bring back to sg too... and everything got finished by us within a few days haha!
ice kachang and asam laksa... i am not a fan of asam laksa but this is really good! thumbs up! this dessert and laksa shop have never-ending queue from morning to night... i witnessed it myself haha
the laksa place also has some wall decoration which were quite meaningful so i took pictures to share with you all :) i will translate it in english but pardon my loose translation =p
