hey there peeps, its been a really gd wk for me.. hope u guys had a great one too! :) went to watch Ah Long Pte Ltd yesterday w my coursemates aft the marco test.. was supposed to go n try Bratwurst and QQ rice but didnt get a chance to because we were ultra full aft a late lunch.. so i had like 2 subway cookies for dinner instead.. and what happened aft that was a horrible bloated-ness in my tummy, sick aftertaste n guilt....anywae Ah Long was okie la, quite funny. but the funnier part is; the ladies sitting behind us were laughing so hard i tink they were practically hyperventilating.

oh dear..i've been spending alot on movies lately.. 2 more to go.. "ps i love u" n "leap years" n i promise to not step into the cinema for the nex few mths!

okie..... n the moment we've all been waiting for.....

snacks from The Royals! ( got it from Tampines Mall Basement, they hav another branch at Katong too) got these for jun who's booking out tml..yum yums!!

from left ( cranberry brownie, double choc brownie, apple crumble. $1.40 each.)

i've developed a new liking for sashimi ever since chinese new yr! i nv liked raw food very much but after a few pieces of salmon from Lo Hei sessions, i loved it! subsequently it became the first thing my chopsticks landed on aft all the 吉祥如意 comments n stuff. do try it if u havent. warning: it is addictive!!
and finally, now let me present to my very own neighbourhood! today i'm gg to feature some cheap, yet yummilicious food available at this coffeeshop (affectionally known as Techno) near my place!! :)

马蹄水 ( Water chestnut juice ) only $1, one of my all-time fav beverages other than bubble tea (without the pearls of course ;) )

Dried Ban Mian! $2.50. cant rem what's the name of the stall called, but there's only one stall that sells Ban Mian there.. actually i wld prefer the You Mian because in my opinion, somehow u'll feel thinner eating thinner noodles.
chicken wings from the western food stall!! haha its like the most popular stall among students and among my frens! i can't remember if this is one of the 可爱鸡 stalls. but there's only one western stall there also, so this is it!


*eeeeewwwww* this 鸡 is definitely not very 可爱 in this state.. which is why.. nv eat chicken wings on a date! hahaha. i would probably end up with sauce or blotches of oil on my cheeks n scare everybody on my table away. Aining ate this btw. not me!!! hahaha!

Tiong Bahru Egg Tarts! hmm, it costs only 60cents each. definitely cheaper n it is considered not bad for its standard. this is what i eat for breakfast every sat mornings when my dad send my mum to work n he wld buy them back. oh my, the egg tart's like the beautiful sun shinning brightly n cheerfully back at u.. dont u tink so? hahaha *slaps myself back to reality* me n my wildest imagination!
anyway, i was re-reading the christmas/bday cards that i received last yr n stumbled upon this verse raffle wrote to me.

But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it—he will be blessed in what he does.
-James 1:25-

very good reminder indeed, thank U Father for being a God that provides way beyond our expectations. teach me to not be a fogetful hearer, but an effective doer... n i seriously need to remember this n apply it in my life right now.

and to raph: a very happy bday to u again if u're reading this!!

a very long n busy week ahead. but for now, i'll jus enjoy my weekend!!!

hopefully i can steal sometime to visit Botak Jones, Bakerzin n QQ rice!! haha check this out.. i'vebeen wanting to try it for very long! http://www.qqrice.co.nz/

lastly, does anyone hav the Borders Preferred Card? do drop me a msg at my taggie k. thanks! am halfway thru that sophie kinsella novel already...it's a must-read! haha alrights, hav a good weekend n stay tuned ;)

the day we got PRAWNed
Friday, February 15, 2008 // 10:42 PM
Dim Sum at Victor's Kitchen (Prinsep)!

Siew Mai with PRAWNs

Har Gow with bigger PRAWNs

Can u all see the Chee Chiong Fan? (its filled with PRAWNs as well). i luv the char siew bao! huge chunks of char siew inside. Yums!! DOUBLE*YAYNESS!!

PRAWN-ed. ( my attempt to spice up the picture )


funny shot. we were so hungry that vannie claims that she could feel the prawns smiling back at her. hmm because we are very big eaters with big hearty appetites, we proceeded on to eat this famous wanton mee. many pictures of celebrities and newspaper cuttings outside!!


the noodles were springy and the black sauce is fantastic!

the dumplings were filled with PRAWNs as well.

the two pretty babes.
AND THEN...... my all time favourite....
EGG TARTS! portugese egg tarts!!
Rochor Tau Huey!

incredibly smooth! it is said that once u've tasted this, u will nv wanna eat any other tau hueys because it is like the bestest tau huey available in singapore?

enjoying the delightful moment.

OH... before i forget.....
....

..
a few days ago at dear xia's mini bday celebration!!!
yanbing and me!
lovely balloons!

me and the legendary aunty of G4 - - jocelyn chew!! 8 rounds around the track was a breeze for the first time ever because u were just talking non-stop,joking ard n updating me abt ur life. that really helped me take my attention off the horrible feelings of breathless-ness and kept me entertained throughout!(not very hard for some1 who used to run 2nd in the whole co-hord to keep blabbering and still running like she's in the olympics.... -.-'') i luv u my aunty, if u are ever reading this, which i tink most probably u dun because anybody who knows u will agree with me totally that u are super obiang and ultra NOT tech savvy.
but............. i luv u all the same :):)
G4. us with the birthday girl!
okie sighhhhhhhhh. how??????????????????? keep eating n eating... all i can say is.. i m getting fatter n fatter everyday.
i'm feeing so guilty now. sometimes i really wished my life could be a blank sheet of paper again and i can write everything all over. but i've learnt an impt lesson; we shld always live life forwards n learn it backwards. cherish every moment u hav now :)
it's mid-sem already and mid terms/datelines are all streaming in.. study hard peeps ! :) shall end this post with one of my fav verses..
15Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does
not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.- 2
timothy 2:15
hav a good weekend!! :):)

home-cooked cereal prawns (麦片虾)!
parents prepared it for the guests over at my hse during cny. surprisingly it tasted quite good! of cos not as good as those u get at zhu caos, but i would give thumbs up for the first-try! haha i only like to eat the 麦片 because i m such a lazy bum .. i hate peeling prawns!

Mango Sago and Honey Dew Sago , Ah Chew Desserts ( Bugis ) - i luv to eat 甜品!! (which explains my size, sian) went to visit this 甜品屋 with aining aft ale's concert. personally prefer the Mango Sago , very refreshing and tasty with big chunks of mango yay!!! the honey dew one pales in comparison because the coconut couldnt dissolve properly and we ended up eating clusters of coconut instead (*shakes head in horror* super fattening)

caught 2 movies within the week. Kung Fu Dunk w the family and 27 Dresses w yanbing and dimei :) both are nice, esp the latter! seems like alot of nice shows coming up too.. The Leap Years, The Eye... , etc. i wanna watch them all...!!

And the very prettyyy lamp given to me by MY BABE :) finally lighted up!! luv it to bits :)



i finally went Waraku!!
Thursday, February 7, 2008 // 1:44 PM

a few days ago at Waraku! finally went there aft hearing lotsa ppl rave abt it. Maccha (Green Tea) Float.


Katsu Curry Udon

Grilled Chicken Curry Udon. the curry's not bad, not spicy and not too sweet. so it wont leave u looking haggard,red and sweaty... (unlike those from ramen ten).
and finally, as i've promised... a review on the Giant Pineapple Tart!! my mum ordered this from her colleague, and erm, we all got a shock when she took it out.. haha it's like twice the size of the normal one? costs like 80cents each.. so ex!! but because it's big, u will stop urself from reaching into the container for more.. unlike those normal kind whereby it is really bad cuz u can sit in front of the tv and before u even know it, half the container is gone?
so big n fat n cute!!!

for comparison purposes. haha.
i'm so enjoying my 9-days-but-now-its-only-left-with-6-days-break. finally finished the entire series of Liar Game! yay. happy cny peeps :) gong xi gong xi !
