Xmas 09

Yeah, this year the new boss gave us 1/2 day for Xmas eve. So happy!! Spend the day with Trixy and Syn at orchard first doing window-shopping and taking photos at the same time. Then headed out to Clarke Quay Waraku for dinner.. Good thing that we went there. Can't imagine spending the night with the massive crowd at Orchard.

Vivian and hubby n Nathan happened to be in the same area while we are having our dinner. So "jio" them to met up for a short while to take photos together. Well, wanted to hang out longer with them but pity bb's mood was not so good, so they had to went home after a short while.

On boxing day, it was the usual once a year gathering at Cel's house. This year it was held at her new house located at Serangoon.

A night out with Kris

::Dinner at Handburger ::

While waiting for the food, we took some shoots with her newly bought camera. As usual, I looked wore-out and she looked so pretty in her floral tube dress. Look so slim as well!

The seating arrangement at Handburger reminded me of canteen arrangement where there are long tables and benches(simliar to 15 minutes restaurant concept) . I ordered a beer battered dory burger with fries for myself while Kris ordered a chicken breast burger with tomato and we shared a salad together. Hmm, find that the beer battered dory was quite oily for my liking .

Overall, the portion of the food was quite big and we were too full to finish them in the end. Haha.. Despite fulling full, we still ordered the Lemon min drink and Lychee mint drink each to try, after seeing the couple beside us sharing a cup by themselves. There were lychees bits inside my drink. Nice!

Next time I should try their other burgers. Perhaps with Trixy. She tried out this burger before but the outlet she went at, was at Raffles City.

Rest in peace

Grandma went into coma since this morning and passed away peacefully this evening. It was a shock to us as she was still alright when Mum visited her yesterday afternoon. Sigh... she was admitted to hospital due to leg pain. She had been admitting in and out of hospital because of this condition. Now they are still checking what actually happen to her as it all happens too sudden. My relatives were guessing could it be drug allergy...
Anyway she was not alone in her last moments. We were all by her side when she left us.

Rest in peace, Grandma! You will be missed!

Shopping time!

This week, Uniqlo was having fabulous promotion at all 3 outlets, due to their 3rd store opening at 313@somerset! Initally, Trixy and me were planning to visit the outlet at 313@somerset last thursday but the crowd she saw during her lunch hours was dreadful. The Q to get in the shop in the afternoon was already a long stretch! By evening time, I guess it will be even more chaotic. So we went to ION branch instead.

The jeans which were selling at S$19.90 each, so sianz that there were no bigger sizes left practially when we reached there after work. At least, I manage to get myself a gym pants and a bra top. Happy with the buys! But was still hoping to get hold of their jeans. So I went back to the outlet at 313@somerset after my company dinner on friday. Just happen the farewell dinner that was booked at Lei Gardens, is just beside it. Wow, the clothings over there were totally in a BIG mess, it was all piled up in mountains. After 10 mins, I was out of there! Such a headache to browse through the "mountains".

So yesterday, Trixy wanted to get her jeans altered. We went back to ION branch again, before going for her sister's company event. Hahaa... Yes! 3 times in a row visiting Uniqlo! This time round, there were new stocks re-stocked for the jeans! Great man! We've been lemming to get a pair in dark grey. Although the color wasn't dark enought, we still love it! Plus alteration fee, the jeans cost S$25.00 each. Cheap and good buys!

Other than shopping at uniqlo over these few days, I also spend on xmas presents for the upcoming gatherings and a jacket from zara yesterday. And now it's only becoming of the month. :( I delcared I'm offically broke!!

Stroke of luck

Got this in a lucky dip at one of Trixy's sister company event! Was surprised to hear my name got called out. Actually was crossing my fingers for another prize instead.

Nevertheless, I'm still overjoy that I won this white wine! Awesome!
