Sayonara Year 2009, Gambate Year 2010



I can't believe is going to be end of this year.  So many things happened in my life, some good, some bad, some are just funny and lame. =)

I am actually still having the Christmas mood though, but in less than 3 days is going to be New Year. I am so excited cos me and my fiance will be meeting up some friends to go NY Countdown at Esplanade watching the fireworks and to put our photography skills to good use.

I will be counting down to my 4th Anniversary with my fiance (20th Jan), Chinese New Year which is also a Valentine's Day (14th Feb), my birthday which is few days after, to complete my tooth implant and also the gown fittings for my wedding photoshoot which is in March. After all that we will be damn busy preparing for our wedding which is in June.  It seems kinda far away but in actual fact we do not have much time left and yet so many things need to be done.  We are going to be stress out, man!  LOL but it will be fun and also the thought about not able to get ang baos anymore after our wedding.. LOL.. Geezzz  ..hmmm =P

I am also thinking abt updating my wardrobe for the Year 2010 fashion trends.  I do not follow them blindly, I love to mix and match and find the styles that suits me best and also I will find ways to update them so I do not look like I am stuck in a time zone of a different era, hahahaha.  Some magazines are already having January 2010 issue out, I bought a few and browse to get some ideas and also to see if I can still achieve the styles with what I already have in my wardrobe.  That's when the classic pieces comes in, they never go out of style.  More mileage, more value for money.   Be it clothes, shoes or bags, makeup, etc... I don own much branded stuffs either, I have none authentic LV or Gucci and seriously I do not care if people are pointing at me for carrying a fake one.  I am not ashame =) .  Ultimately is how you piece the whole look together, that is what a smart fashion-savy frugalista will do.   Look like a million dollars without breaking your bank account.  Phua Chu Kang will tell you :  Use your brain, use your brain! Don pray, pray ! (play, play).

So all my dear friends, male or female, young or old, a brand new year is coming.  Time to make a change and improve your life, do whatever you want (almost), try something new.  New haircut, new clothes/shoes/bags/accessories (this is a must for all ladies!), new hobby, new job, new GF/BF or new husband or wife.. LOL... this one is a joke lah.. of cos I seriously hope those who are attached stay happy forever lah, right ! haha!  So many new things and positive changes to look forward for the coming new year.  Forget abt the sorrow, sadness and the negative and unhappy memories and move on !  HUAT AHHHHH !!!!

This will be my last entry for Year 2009.  Welcoming the New Year and the Year of the Tiger... ROARRR !

Beginning of December...



Last Saturday (5th Dec), went for a 3D movie with beloved bf @ Vivocity, A Christmas Carol.  I just love 3D movies.  All the special effects come alive right before your eyes and you can't help but go ohhhh and ahhhh.   Walt Disney 3D movies never fail to amaze me even though I am already an old kid, ha ha ha !  So after the movie, as usual had dinner at Sakae Sushi @ Harbourfront.  We ordered sashimi, chawanmushi, salmon don, one veggie delight paper hot pot soup to share and also edamame.  I love the paper hot pot soup cos it can warm you up, just nice for this cold weather... oohhhhh.   And I suddenly remembered one incident which I went to Sakae Sushi at TBP, me and my friend ordered the paper hot pot soup too and were eating happily until the paper caught fire!  I tried to blow out the fire with little success but luckily one of the staff saw it and he quickly take a glass and put out the small fire. LOL.. I am laughing cos when I think back is quite funny actually.  Well, no harm done, don't worry.

Ok back to Saturday's story, after the dinner me and my beloved bf walked to the.........cashier to pay for our food.  HAHAHAHAHA ~  What ?!  After eating of cos have to pay lah.. like I said is not FOC.  Well, we did went somewhere else... we went home and rest as next day is his cousin's wedding and that basically sum up my Saturday.

Counting down to Christmas.... ho ho ho ho... ~

Food Diary - Waffins - Waffles & Muffins



You cannot imagine how thrilled I am when I finally had the chance to try out this new stall called Waffins, near my place.  They sell freshly made waffles and muffins. Actually they have been there for a few months.

Last night (2nd Dec), after our very sinful Botak Jones dinner (well, to me is sinful cos I m supposed to be on diet lah)... I decided to try out the waffles..the smell is too irrresistable liao !!  So I psycho-ed my bf to share a waffles with me. I had wanted to try the Cheesy Honey but is sold out for the day.  So I ordered the Old Skool '' Goo Yu'', which was recommend by the guy at the stall (which I later found out is the Boss) it has maple syrup, melted icing sugar and butter, damned is both heavenly and sinful !!!  And the waffles is spongy and taste great BUT is best if you eat it while is still hot.   No pic of that cos I was so engrossed in eating !  

When I woke up this morning (3rd Dec), I am still thinking about Waffins.  So I washed up and went down around 10 am, the stall had just open for business and I saw a girl preparing the waffle mix and also arranging the muffins, oh my gawdddd, the smell ..Mmmmmm ~  I ordered a Peanut butter waffles and a Cheese & Pumpkin seeds muffin which I share with my younger brother.  The girl told me that the guy I saw last night was the Boss, Mr. Koon.  I thought is her brother , how embarrassing !! hahaha.  The crowds are staff from nearby offices and warehouses/factories. Some of their items from what I understand, are available from lunch time onwards.  So I guess you got to check with them.  You can have them takeaway as well. 

Below are some pics I took today.


Is a humble little stall, right behind the drinks stall in the coffeeshop. There is no crowd yet cos I was early.. LOL
