Do you hear the people sing?

I had a great weekend!

How about you?

It gets pretty annoying when people associate the number of working hour to how much work you do.
But I don't really care.. I already had my TGIF mode turned up at 1pm and headed home immediately when I completed all my stuff! 

Friday was so well spent with the family :)
Sis and I treated our parents to a meal at 天外天 cos she finally received her first paycheck!
Did some CNY shopping with Jia at Bugis after that.
Think we went into some shopping frenzy, we got more than 10 pieces of clothes altogether! Shiokadoodoo~~

Shopping date initiated by WC on our Saturday date (how rare is that?)
But what to expect when you shop with the boyfriend rite?
Only one pair of shoes. ROARRRRRRR.

So we do what we do and love best! :)

FOOD! *slurp*

A really nice dinner at A.Venue and they served rather good aglio olio.
Nice in my opinion, but WC thought it was really good and he wants to come back again.
The vongole is our must order for us when we have pasta and it reminded us so much of the one we had in Hsin Tsu.
Talking about that, I do miss Taiwan :(

And I finally got to watch Les Miserables on Saturday!
The show was really good and I love love love Anne Hathaway. Most of them sang beautifully and it was mesmerizing enough to keep me rooted to my seat for nearly 3 hours :)

Did I mention? Watching movie with WC is one of my favourite thing to do :)
Staying close to each other to enjoy a good movie. Teehee.

Love this scene and this song the most 
So saddening when the little boy died :((((



Some volunteering work with my lovely girlfriends this morning :)
I was so looking forward to it though we were really afraid of spotting some lizards, cockroaches and bedbugs during the spring cleaning.
But it's really nice and heartwarming to see that there are still people trying to do a little something for these underpriviledged while we are all getting ready to celebrate the CNY.
And I do appreciate and  is grateful that I have a bunch of sweetest girlfriends who are ever so willing to do their bit for these people :))))

Sweetest Bella can still pose while cleaning!

Serene hard at work!


Lena and the gate that she's super proud after cleaning! :)




It's quite saddening when you talk to these elderly and realise they no longer look forward to celebrating anymore festivals cos they are alone.
Perhaps a celebration is only made meaningful when you have friends and family with you.
There is just so much we can do for them but perhaps a cleaner house will make them feel more love and care in this festive season.

We rewarded ourselves with a nice lunch thereafter!
Headed to Drips Bakery Cafe


 The Norwegian Salmon sandwich

Their big breakfast. Nothing much to rave about (except the omelette which was really yummeh!) and I found $15 a little pricey for this breakfast set.


But their dessert is definitely worth every single cent! One of the best tart I have ever eaten :)
It was sold out by the time we left the cafe!


Such a good time with them talking and laughing about the most random stuff.
So sad I will not be able to join them for their Bali trip :( Bet it's gonna be soooooooooooooo much fun!

And as if the brunch was not enough, we explored around the neighbourhood and found this really yummy BCM just beside the Tiong Bahru Market.
They had the nicest soup ever and we actually had our bowls refilled thrice!
And the uncle called us over cos he wanted to give us some crayfish to go with the noodle!
Lucky or what? Haha maybe he just wanna show some appreciation to his customers who looked so satisfied with his noodle.




Need to go to bed soon.
So not looking forward to work tomorrow but I shall stay POSITIVE!!!!


Good nite! :)
