February in a glance

February flew past really quickly and March is coming real soon!
It has got to be the most happening month this year with all the feasting and catching up with family and friends :)
The first reunion dinner was done with my ladies and thanks to Serene's recommendation, I had the most authentic Korean dining experience thus far!

왕대박 Wang Daebak is a Korean restaurant located in the midst of the shophouses in Amoy Street.
The price is slightly of the steep end but the freshness of the food and service was daebak!
The three of us wiped out the table worth of food! :)

Getting into the CNY mood! HUAT AH!

It's always funny how everyone is always so busy on CNY eve and the street is so empty on 初一.


Visiting River Angbow is on our CNY to do list every year.
I love immersing in the CNY mood and taking touristy photos with all the auspicious figurine and decoration around.
Makes me feel very HUAT. Hahahaha

It's darling's agenda to play some Uncle Ringo game at the funfair every year.
Make him pose with his win after the game and see how awkward he looks with the carebear-wannabe soft toy! LOL.
We headed to the claws machine in MS and WC wanna continue his winning streak at the claws machine.
And guess wad, we won on our first attempt!
Lucky or what??? Now my elmo has got himself a companion!

Valentines Day was a simple event this year.
Since it falls on a weekday, we spent the day in.
Whipped up a simple meal for him and we spent the night snuggling in bed, checking out our little handmade gifts and seeing how people spent their Valentines via fb update. haha.

And the best part, WC finally agreed on our June vacation and we are going to BKK for some good food, shopping and massage soon!

The CNY celebration continues over the weekend..
Headed to danjakk's place for our annual steamboat and ban luck session.
Love the food that aunty prepares for us! The best steamboat I had this CNY:)
I can't wait to head to her new place next year for reunion though we need to help out cos ahem.. the BFF is not as zai as aunty in house chores and cooking yet! LOL.

Steamboat again at Weixiong's place on Saturday.
WC's childhood friends are really a fun bunch to be with.. so much laughter over lunch and Ah Huat 白咖啡 in our BJ session :)
We can't wait to host them in our new place in future too! :) 

Helped out at a friend's wedding on last Sunday.. In fact since Saturday night.
It wasn't exactly a pleasant experience (so sad, it was my first time) but there were of course some happy moments.
In this blog, we only see the happy memories we have during the wedding! :)

There is really soooo much to prepare for a wedding.
And in the midst of the preparation, I forged some new friendship with my beautiful sisters and they reminded me that we need to treasure and appreciate friends we have around us.
I am still recuperating from the lack of sleep the past week though I napped almost every day the past few days.
It must be 初老症状第一条(if you get what I mean). heehee.
Thankfully it's Friday! Gonna rest well this weekend and enjoy the last bit of CNY! :)

You got me beaming with happiness :)

It had been a long time since I got so excited over something.

Yes!! Love and I finally got our flat!! *Throw confetti*

For the past week, we were so anxious checking out the HDB website for the latest update and keeping our fingers crossed that our preferred unit was not taken up.
Sounds exaggerating, we actually went to check out the place a few times, to check the progress of the construction even before we got the unit. LOL.

Thankfully (our prayer works!), we managed to secure a unit! *Throw confetti again*

The feeling is pretty surreal.
Walking out of HDB an hour after entering to realise you have a flat in your possession and we are one step closer to our dream home!:)

WC suggested breakfast before our registration so we had Delifrance!
I love their Seafood and Tuna filling... 
Craving for it since my last try with Danjakk and Rania!:)


HOHOHO! Never feel so happy paying money before!


And to end the wonderful day, WC messaged me and told me I am gonna get another treat from him cos he got his bonus letter!

And no prize for guessing where we go!!
Salivating while I am blogging about it!

*******
Time in 2013 is whizzing past too quickly.
A few more days and it is the Lunar New Year!

Dinner with WC after his work on Saturday..
First time trying Swee Choon Dim Sum after hearing so many people talking about it.
The queue was crazy even at 9pm, but they had such good management that we got ushered to our seat very quickly.

Old school service bell

And such old school pencils to take our order! I used to have them neatly lined in my pencil case in primary school.

The dimsum were sooooo good, see how much the two of us ate!

The highly-raved liu sha bao didn't fail us at all.
Look at the custard that is oozing out! Yumz.
Gonna bring daddy and mummy there to try again one day!

Jia had been rather busy since she started her work.
We finally went ahead with our first game together. So fun!!
The only bad thing was we went for pancake right after the game! MUAHAHAHA

And I got a sushi treat cos she got her first paycheck! :))
Some random Mcdonald lunch with her cos CNY is never complete without twister fries!!

Chinatown shopping with mummy last Friday :)
Making a wish for the family before the new year!

Much shopping with the mummy before some yummy chicken rice at one of the shophouses.
WC came and joined us despite being so tired from work..
It's these little gestures WC does that makes him the sweetest boyfriend ever! 
Mummy is the cutest cos she wanted to join us in a selfshot!
Love this photo though I look super shagged!:))


Ending the post with a picture from YH.
The wacky friend wadsapp me this picture and I was so impressed with her creativity!


Two more days to the weekend and a long hiatus from work! YAYYYY!
