Merry Christmas!

BB has been exceptionally sweet this Christmas. Other than giving me a very nice Xmas pressie, he booked a surprise Xmas high-tea session for us!

He refuse to reveal the venue till we reached the place. He made a reservation at Rose Veranda at Shang and seriously from my previous experience with them, I am crossing my fingers.

Well, they did not surprise me with their awful dishes as usual. Only their prawns are fresh and desserts are nice. The rest of the dishes, seriously for anyone considering to visit, please save your money.

But still, it's really my BB's thoughts that counts and I truly enjoy myself with him beside me :)

Also, I had my very first serving of oysters! Mdm Boo was telling me the goodness in them and I pluck up ALL my courage and decided to give it a shot (so much for me being vain~). Hahhahah!

BB was so amused by me that he took the series of pictures below to document down this significant moment. Hahhaha!

Don't be fooled by my last picture. Hahhahah! As I had never eaten oyster before, I've put in tons of tobasco sauce and lemon juice!

For those who know me, you'll would know that I can't take anything spicy and I was nearly choked by the high dosage of tobasco!

After I've calmed myself down, I tried it again with very little amount of tobasco and the oyster tasted fine. I am so happy that I dare to eat it! Hahhahaha!

Though the look of oyster is a major turnoff, but the goodness of it triumphs it all.

Guess I'll try to eat it on a regular basis!

This year's Christmas has been real cozy and it will have been even better if I am not sick so I can carry my darling Oscar!

Hahhahaa! There goes the obssessed yeeyee again.

Gotta rest now. Will update again real soon!

Merry Merry Christmas!!!

It's been a year.

How time flies.

It's been a year since Darren left and it seriously doesn't feel that long.

Maybe I am the emotional sort, maybe I am a crybaby. But when I visited him today with BB, looking at his picture, I am still holding back my tears.

It's the first time in my life that someone close to me actually leaves us so much earlier and till today, I am still trying to cope with it. Trying not to feel so sad whenever I talk about him.

Even for me, it has been so difficult. I guess Sharon is a really strong woman. Much stronger than many of us could imagine.

Darren, all of us have been good and Jayden is growing up to be a happy boy.

Rest in peace.

Lucky Baby!

Darling Baby Oscar is my lucky baby!

First time in my life (plus my BB), we strike 4D! & it's in the top 3 prizes!

All thanks to my darling baby Oscar! Love him so muchie! Hahhaha!

I totally look like a proud yeeyee who loves to take pictures with my darling boy :D

Can't wait for the next weekend to come so I can cuddle him again! <3

The Arrival of Darling Oscar Boy!!

My naughty darling Oscar boy must have known that he's only going to get 1 present if he's going to be born on Christmas, so he decided to come out early! Hahaha!

He decided to say hello to us on 13th December 2010!

He's so so so adorable! Such a darling! He totally resembles Mdm Boo and it felt a little strange to stare at a mini Mdm Boo initially! Hahhahah!

Don't my darling Oscar boy looks so adorable???

I totally look and feel like a proud yeeyee! :D

I am so happy and excited to see him & I keep missing him! Love him so muchie! :D

Arrival of a new baby is always so blissful and I can't wait for him to be a little more energetic so I can play with him! <3

My First Xmas Pressie in 2010

As the title goes, I received my first Xmas pressie this year from BB!

The best part is not the present, it's the fact that I really got a surprise from it! Hahhaa!

Come to think of it, I've known him for 10yrs and this is the first time he caught me offguard and make me really surprised!

My darling has improve muchie!

It's not that he didnt bought me anything for the past 10 years, in fact, he bought sooooo much that I seriously lost count. But he never managed to surprise me cause I always know or sense it beforehand.

I was telling him the other day that this xmas pressie surprised me so much more than his proposal! Hahhahaha! (or rather, the proposal does NOT even come as a surprise and totally not consider as one though he was real sweet :) )

I was shocked and so happy when I saw it at the back of his car boot!

(Especially so after a long tiring day and an unpleasant flight) I was smiling from ear to ear and felt so glad that I didnt bought the Givenchy bag earlier!

Totally love the bag! Because it's THE bag for my work! I totally need a shoulder bag and I love the color and charms!

I feel so blissful and blessed at this point in life. Really. I am really grateful for all that has happened to me and totally love my choices in life :)

It's Tomorrow!

Yes! I am finally trying on my gowns tomorrow!

I am feeling excited yet worried at the very same time!

I am worried that I've put on so much weight (all thanks to the super late night dinners) that I will burst my seams or have that extremely unsightly tummy popping out or, the gowns are so tight that I cant breathe and I look ugly in it!

This is specially worrying as I think I am a 'perfectionst' when it comes to this kind of things..

Take away all these worries, I am ultra excited! Wondering how I will look like in my bridal gown..will it be as perfect as I imagine it to be..

Well, I'll take pictures and will post if I think its nice! Hahhaha..

And tomorrow, Mdm Boo, Cindy and Ade is going with me! Everyone loves me!

Hahhahaha!

And of course, I am also very excited to see how my BB will look like in his suit. I am sure he will look good in it with his Boss shirts :)

I secretly loves dressing my BB up to a certain extend, or rather, I just love dressing up, be it myself or BB. So after I am done with myself, it's BB's turn (I seriously think he needs a good haircut and dye)!

How vain can I be.. Dressing up is so fun!

And very soon, will be darling little Oscar!!

I'm so so so excited! It's just 4 more weeks and he will wave hello to this world!

Can't wait for Christmas to come!

It's gonna be our best Christmas ever with our precious, naughty and cutie addition to the family! <3

Leisure Afternoon

So glad that today is a PH and we can sleep in.

BB was on duty last night and when he came back in the morning, he bought breakfast for me :) After brekkie, we went back to sleep!

Super shiokness!! This is life. Hahahha! I realised that I have the tendency to switch off totally during non-working days which I think is super healthy.

Anyway, after we woke up, we went to Esplanade for lunch! BB's initial plan is to bring me to a high tea place at Esplanade which he read about in the magazine but when we reach there, there's nothing much to eat except scones. We decided to have lunch at Space @ My humble house.

The food is abit bland for my liking though. So after lunch, we went to Max Brenner for desserts!

The souffle and waffle is really good!

Rich and warm chocolate flows out of the souffle once you stuck your fork into it. It's even nicer when you eat it with the vanila ice-cream :)

The waffle is really fluffy and good and I totally love the sugar-coated nuts that comes with it.

Having the desserts is the best thing that happened today (^_^).

How nice if I can spend all my days so leisurely <3



My Future Love Nest

I am getting my little nest in 3 (maximum 4) year's time!

So excited and so looking forward to it! I finally have my own little nest and I'm totally loving it!

Isn't it nice? :D

There are so much things I can do once I shift it!

Baby Oscar or my own little baby (if I do have one by then) can play in the children's water playground, I can be a poser at the pool or in one of the spas, organise regular BBQ and most importantly, I can just laze around in my own house!

And, I will have place for ALL my things! My lovely shoes will have a place of their own, no more lying in stuffy shoe boxes! My lovely clothes will all be hanged up in my own wardrobe, no more being folded up and left forgotten in some corners!

What's more, I can finally bake in my own home! BB and I can also experiment with cooking! It's gonna be so so fun and blissful!

Can't wait for my blissful life to begin! <3

Never been busier

Last week had been a crazy crazy week. Work has been keeping real real busy, my classes had started and I know nuts on what the lecturer is talking about. The only thing that I remembered very well is, "comment tuttapelle"?(hope I didnt spelt it wrongly) Hahha..

Went to Bangkok on Tuesday and so so so many things happened on that day!! I lost something which is supposed to be mine. I guess I am just not fated with it, or rather, it's not suitable for me. The happy thing is, I chose another one and hope everything goes well and I can reveal what I had bought! :D

Sorry for the digression. Back to my Bangkok trip. I had a relatively good trip, it will be even better if I didnt had a MEGA blister on my sole and tons of other blisters around my feet. It was so bad that I am limping for the next few days.

Will be leaving for Jakarta on Tuesday and still had tons of things to do. In the past I kept saying that I wish to have a job that requires me to travel and now I got it but I rather stay in Singapore. I got to travel to Jakarta and BKK every month! Gosh..it's so tiring! Guess I will try to plan a day trip if possible.

Went to Dessert Ministry today with BB. Apparently it is a new dessert place in Cineleisure.

Theirs is the HongKong style desserts but seriously, not worth the time.

They do not have alot of desserts in stock when I was there in the afternoon. They do not even have mango when a huge majority of their desserts surround mangos!

The dessert soup that I had, seriously, mine is better!

Gotta end here. I need a rest :)

Happy Updates!

Hello everyone!

It's been a while since my last update. I have been real busy but really happy :)

I am happy with my work, happy being with my BB, happy that my little Oscar is growing really well and will be saying hello to the world in 2 months!

Goshhhh..my BB insists that I must blog about him being sweet! Hhahhahaa! Then I told him,'If you want me to write that, you must make me feel real sweet now!" Hhahahaha! Guess what? He quickly scrambled over to my side and massage me!

Awwwww!! Isn't my darling BB soooooooo sweeeet??

Hahhahahhaa!

Another good news is that I might be able to rush back to Singapore in time for my little Oscar's baby shower! Due to the time difference and if there are no changes, I should be able to reach Singapore on early Sunday (super early) morning.

I am so excited about the trip! Planning to go 2-3days earlier to shop! Heeeeeee :D

Stay tune for more happy updates and beautiful pictures! <3



A "meaty" affair

BB brought me out on a date yesterday :)

It's been a while since we went on a date. Hmmm..maybe not that long but it just felt that way. Hahaha..

Every couple should have at least a monthly couple date!

BB refuse to reveal where we are and exactly which restaurant we are going for dinner and he told me he had made a reservation so it really feels like a date! Hahhaa..silly BB :)

So, he brought me to........

It's Brazilian Churrascaria!

Well, he choose this place is to satisfy his own cravings!!! (so much for a date!!) It's basically a buffet place that mainly serves meat. BB loves it! He's been wanting to visit a buffet place that mainly serves meat for ages.

The place is quite nice and it's good to visit once in a long while.

 The cold dish!

 Chicken wrapped in bacon!

 Thanks to BB, I was trying hard to smile with my mouth full! Arghhhh!

 A proper picture!

BB loves his meat so much that he cant wait to sink his teeth into it!

It is quite a nice place to visit and I am pretty sure Mr Lai will like it (He has almost the same taste in food as BB). I also believe that he wont be as "diu lian" as us cause we are full after half an hour!

BB is so mentally unbalanced that he refuse to leave! Hahhahah! People who were there earlier than us are still happily eating away while our tummy gonna burst from all the food. When BB finally called for the bill, he saw someone else calling for it too and he's so happy!

Hahahhaa! My BB is so silly at times :)

For those who are looking for some entertainment, do visit the restaurant later as there are Caucasians dancing and singing at the restaurant and the dancers will actually go round the tables and invite people to dance with them.

There were this lady who was picked and she was shaking more furiously than the dancer! Goshhhh..she must have waited ages for the dancer to ask her to join in the dance! Hahah!

Our date ended with a scoop of ice cream and an extremely satisfied stomach.

With our wedding in 7 month's time, regular dates may not be a great idea after all ;p

He's home :)

After nearly 4 months, BB is finally home!

Went to Changi Naval base to pick him up :)

Ship is sailing in!

 Waiting for the ceremony to start

BB receiving his medal!

After the ceremony, we went back to the ship to collect BB's stuff and we head for home!

BB bought some tibits for me and many many clothes! :D

The strawberry choco, 2nd from left, is nice de la! And the tuna crackers, literally canned tuna with crackers, is so nice!! Gosh..why we dont have it in Singapore?? I have yet to try the rest but I am pretty sure the KitKat senses is gonna be real nice too! :D

We went to Pionner Wharf for dinner at Jurong point and the food is not bad! Their shark's fin soup comes with big chunks of shark's fin :)

Here's BB with his little niece, Avril!

She was staring at him for the longest time without smiling! Hahaha..Guess she couldnt understand why a strange pehpeh is carrying her. Hahahah! It took her 2-3 days to sort of recognise him and smile at him.

All is good and blissful with BB being back home! :D

Four more days!

BB is finally coming home!

He will reach Singapore this Friday!

How time flies..it's been 4 long months. I've gotten so used to him not being around. Hahah..With me having the entire big bed to myself, throw the pillows in all directions or build a 'border' around me when I sleep, I seriously dont know which part of the bed he can sleep at when he's back. Hhahahhaa!

I need a King size bed!!

Though I love having the whole bed to myself, but I am still very happy that he is back :)

There will be my nightly massages, no more washing of any dishes, no more cleaning of room, have 'ai xin' brekkie/supper whenever I want, satisfy my brunch cravings, gets a big hug when I needed one and lastly, no more cab rides home! :D

And, I'll get new clothes!!!

BB faster come back!! :D

I miss you!!

Blessings from afar!!

Remember the most awesome stranger I've talked about in my previous posts?

(read it here if you don't!http://msfickleminded.blogspot.com/2010_08_22_archive.html)

I received her hankies today! It felt so warm knowing that a total stranger would actually make such an effort just to send her blessings to someone whom she did a great favour to!

It may mean nothing to her but it certainly means a hell lot to me! I seriously didn't know such good people still exists and they really give without expecting anything in return.

May God bless her and once again,

THANK YOU!!! YOU MADE MY DAY!!!

Imperial Treasure Fine Dining Chinese Cusinie

As my brand principles are in town, our team had dinner at Imperial Treasure on Monday.

The decor is nice and the food is good :)

(Please do not ask me about the price as it's paid by the company and everything was pre-arranged)

I just managed to sneak a few pictures of the walkway and our room.

Walkway to our room.

One part of the room was built with full panel glass window and it overlooks the main shopping area in MBS.

This is the setup when we first arrived.

With all the principles and fellow colleagues from various country arriving, I was too shy to take more pictures (dont want to be seen as a 'mountain tortoise). Hahaha.

The food presentation is good as well and I have my very first experience of eating oyster. Well, it's fried oyster..The texture actually felt like the egg yolk in salted egg. Abit rough. Maybe I am not used to it, maybe I am imagining too much when I ate it, I actually felt like puking when I am eating it. Guess oysters are still not for me, be it fried or raw.

With Chinese dinners being lined up for 2 continuous day, it set me thinking whether does all angmohs love chinese food?

On a random note, I personally think that the principles are really nice people and I can't wait to meet up with them in Geneva in January :)

Or rather, I can't wait to visit Geneva!!! Hahhahaha! :D

Updates updates!

First week of my work had passed and I am loving it!

With the constant craving for the beloved Korea BBQ, Mr Lai made a booking for today's dinner!

This time round, our dear cousin, Cecilia joined us after hearing us rave about it! 

See how happy she is!! Hahhaha!

Her virgin trip to the restaurant and she loves the meat too! Our recommendation is good! hahhahaha!It was a fun night chatting away after a busy busy week.

Life is so good right now and I am loving every bit of it :)

Below is my first loot from my company sales. Please don't expect anything atas coz those are not on sale.................yet. Hahhah!

And! Please don't say I am aunty(I am not!!). I bought it because only these were on sale(plus it's a very good deal) so I grab one for myself and one for mummy. It is really quite comfy :)

Can't wait for more staff sales to come! Hahhaha!

Today, BB has reached Dubai!! Which means, he is reaching home in 2 weeks!! Time flies and I can't wait for him to be back :)

He is currently shopping for me in Dubai! So sweet ain't he? (^_^)

His latest update is that he bought me a couple of dresses and some little clothings for baby Oscar! He bought those really tidy ones so baby Oscar can wear it immediately when he pops out of mummy's tummy!

He's going to find me some interesting chocolates and tibits from Dubai :)

Can't wait for him to be back!

I am a happy, blissful and contented girl right now. :D



New Start New Beginning

Guess most of you have known by now that I had a change of job and I've never been busier.

Or maybe, it's been a long while since I felt busy. So busy that I hardly have time for anything!

Mdm Boo was saying that I'm being irresponsible for not updating my blog. But the fact is, she just misses me so much (^_^)! Hahhaah!

I do miss being 'eng' for like a minute today. Just a minute :)

Guess I've have been too free for the past 19months and I missed being busy and having my day filled.

The only downside is that I am walking around in my 4inches heels for at least 12 hours a day for the past 3 days and this is what happened to my poor feet today :(

The picture looks less swollen (I have the tendacy of my feet swelling after a long day in heels) but I walked till there's bruises caused by my shoes and I didn't even realise it.

But,

I am certain that I've made a right choice(at least I feel so at this very moment) as I am really happy though I've been freaking busy. My boss is really capable and I really respect her. I truly have alot to learn from her.

Though I heard alot of things about her, but to me, people are always listening to one side of the story. People always listen to the ones who complain and those that complain, simply doesn't want to admit that they are not good enough. She has her expectations which is really good as it makes people learn and grow.

I am really hoping to be as good as her one day :)

Time to log off now. I still have a string of events happening for the next 10days starting from tomorrow.

Jia You!!!!

Yummy Korean BBQ!

I had the yummiest korean BBQ yesterday!!

It was so yummy that I kept thinking about it! We chance upon the restaurant after designing my wedding gown and we were lucky to get a seat!

I didn't think much of the meat initially as I was never a huge fan for BBQ food, so I took alot of sauages as back-up in case I don't like the meat.

But......

After I tried the chicken, I was over the moon! And the beef.......

It was so so so good that words are not good enough to describe!!!! The marination was superb and I never had such good beef before!!

Gosh..the thought of it is making me hungry!

It's so nice that even Mdm Boo loves the beef! (Mdm Boo don't take beef!)

Mdm Boo happily BBQ-ing the meat for us!

It was so nice that all 3 of us are so happy and keep smiling while eating it! With Mdm Boo eating so much beef, Little Oscar must be a happy baby!

BB will be back in 3 weeks and I am sure he'll love it!

Can't wait to visit the restaurant again!
