A date with Cony and Brown!

So glad for the public holiday break that dismisses my Monday blues!

Started the holiday with some selfie time with this cutiepie

And a date with my colleagues and their plus one at Brotzeit.
WC was supposed to join us but he ended up workiing OT :(
I secretly think the robots hate me, cos they always cranked up on PH eve. Roarrrrr.

A platter is a must have at Brotzeit.
 

The very sweet couple :) Minus that photobomb aunty behind who keeps hogging onto the seat.

Everyone says cheers to a good holiday!

And the next day, the mister had to check out his robots again before he meets me.
So I headed to town to do my nails while waiting for him. 
Headed to town cos we need to get the shirts for his photoshoot, and we got some good deal from G2000 because they were having some mid season sale. Shiokadoodoo.

Then we headed to the LINE popup store FINALLY!!
Actually it was WC who wanted to go, but I ended more excited than him. Like what's new?

All  my faces cos someone is too shy to pose with his favourite brown. 
And I will be risking my life if I posed a picture of him acting cute with Brown.
Muahahaahha.. I shall save that for my own eye then.

One with my Brown :)



And we started queuing up cos we saw people queuing, not knowing what we are queuing for. 
Not bad la, spin the wheel and win some LINE merchandise.

Nothing much to buy in the store cos no harm heading down for some photos if you like LINE.
Ending 22 May if I am not wrong :)

Headed down to 四马路 to get our auspicious timing for the wedding.
It's so funny how I actually feel excited when planning out the itinerary for our actual day.
Like I can feel my heart beat faster when I imagine the scenario on that day. 
Haha damn drama I know.  
Beginning to feel the jitters but okay la, still a chillax bride-to-be!

Mother's Day celebration!

Think I am falling sick soon (
Feel a little under the weather recently and I hope it doesn't escalate to a fever.

Had been busy celebrating and eating the last two weeks because of Mother's Day.
It is always like a get together for the family over a good meal to give thanks to the mummies who had work so hard the whole year round!

Treated the family to buffet lunch at Tung Luk.
Mummy wanted something Asian yet buffet, so Tungluk is the best choice.
They serve pretty good food though their service needs a little more improvement in my opinion. 

And as the quality of the pictures taken on my phone continues to deteriorate, I can only rely on others for pictures to feed this blog of mine :(

A picture together after the meal is a must!
Mummy says she want to try a picture without her glasses but I think she looks better with her glasses, don't you think?

Daddy and Mummy <3

And one of sis and mummy :)

My favourite photo cos it consists of all the people dearest to me <3<3<3

Accompanied mummy to OG after that to try out some dresses for my wedding. 
Hahaha we had so much fun trying out while the two men just sit around and wait.
I think it's time we bring mummy out for a shopping session soon without the men of course!

And dinner was done at a zichar near my aunt's place to celebrate for grandma.
We had two full tables to celebrate for grandma but none remembered to take any photos. 
At least Jia took some pictures of the food!

The seafood claypot vegetable with the super smooth sea cucumber *slurp*


Seafood youtiao. So nostalgic. Quite happy to have this cos I hadn't had this for a long time. 






My favourite all time!

We ordered so much there was almost no space to put on the table.
Zi Char is best when you have a big group to eat together.
WC and I always ordered the most 3 dishes and we will be too stuffed for me.

And last Saturday was to celebrate great grandma's birthday.
The maternal side is so different from my paternal side.
We had more than 10 tables dinner banquet to celebrate the occasion.
Haha sometimes it feels like a wedding, they wheeled great grandma around to catch up with all of us and you can tell she was so happy to see everyone.

We had such good food and these are only some of them


One picture with Shermz.
She's tempting me so much get a Z2!
Look how good the picture is without editing even under low light.
Tried out the same pose with Note 3 but fail!

Sunday was a really tiring day for us, cos we have to 赶场 to celebrate for our two beloved mummies!
Lunch at Imperial Treasure steamboat with Wee Cheng's family.
First time trying and I love their sauces and aunty had so much fun experimenting with the sauces. Haha.


We had the ginseng soup which feels very nourishing to us.
See the big ginseng. haha


Our live soon hock that was damn shiok with their warm soy sauce.

Some pictures that I remembered taking..




WC paid about $240 for the meal, but it's not as fantastic as I thought it would be.
The only thing I liked was the soup.
The same price would give me better food at 海底捞 and JUMBO!

The mandatory shot before lunch! :))

Shopping with his family after lunch and oh boy, we shopped for 3 hours straight!
Damn tired after that and we concussed after sending his mum home.
We had to rush back home to do a second round of celebration for mummy cos my very sweet sis felt that we can't not do anything on Mother's Day itself :)

Jia prepared everything singled handedly!

And I got mummy a cake :)

My cheeky dad!

And my cheeky family! Haha

Happy Mother's Day Mummy!
May you be blessed with the best of health and happiness everyday! :)

Chef Sim at work again: Prima Taste Laksa Fried Rice

Hohohoho so much win!
I love it when I have so much time to do update after updates.

So after I finished my latest entry, I updated my avid reader about it. (who is none other than WC, because I don't think there are many others who fancy reading my boring posts haha) 
In response, he texted me this.

"不是每次有希望才要坚持,but sometimes have to 坚持才会看到希望 - C.L.I.F 3

Hahaha damn lame right? But it's so true. 
Something an pessimist like me need to learn to see. Haiz.

Anyway, back to the post. 
WC was on forced leave yesterday so he told me to go over his place after work.

So he sent me this while I was at work... I knew I was in for some good lunch!

Chef Sim getting ready.. 
And I was banned from the kitchen after snapping only one picture. Haha. 

So the two women (his mum and I) sat in the living room discussing about my gowns and future curtains and some China show on teevee while he work hard in the kitchen. Haha.

And this is the most-ingredient-fried rice that received thumbs up from the both of us.  
I can't stop when there is fried rice, especially when it's so good.
Seriously, which fried rice let you have either a taste of one whole prawn or fishcake at every mouth you put into your mouth. LOL.
Plus, WC still bought me coke to go with my lunch :)

Doesn't it deserve a thumb up???

The tulip mania and spiderman

Don't judge this plate of black stuff by its appearance. It's damn good. 
We wanted to grab some food before we head to Gardens By the Bay but everywhere was packed with tourists
Settled for the food republic in MBS but the food is so expensive lo. 
This is the famous fried hokkein mee I was introduced to when I was in KL. 
Haha texted my girls immediately cos it brought back so much memories and first thing Serene said was 'When's the next outing?"

Obviously this was half as good but twice as expensive, not to mention WC queued 30 minutes for two plates of this. 
You seldom see the man getting angry and when he did, you know they must have really pissed him off.

Not a flower fanatic especially when you still have to spend money to see flowers.
But I am so glad we went. $12 pax for a different date (made better with the aircon and flower scent), there's nothing better to ask for!

I swear I spammed WC's phone with pictures of flowers cos they are so pretty. 
Now his phone contains only mainly photos of either flowers or his robots at work, maybe with 1% of my face in it =_=

We took so many pictures of the flowers I need to make collages of them.
So happy now even just looking at them :)


Let me intercept a few of our pictures and marvelled at the wonder what Beauty Face can do. LOL. 
I look like a multi-tasking monster busy taking photos while doing selfie. FML.  




And stupid things we do.


Felt so happening that day, cos we decided it was cool to watch a blockbuster the first day it was released.

I managed to sit through 2.5h, but it's not difficult for a $230 million budget movie.
The plot feels superficial and much of the special effects lack the WOW impact. 
It's like you see a tank of electric eels, obviously the villain is electro man right?

But there are times that made you go awww.
I am not really a superhero fanatic, but I guess he has to be my favourite amongst all.

Why? Simply because he gives people hope. 
But then again, superheroes are many a time not a good lover.
Because they have so much on their plate, it became hard to keep to their promise as much as they wanted to. 
Like how he promised Gwen Stacy he will try and the next moment she is dead. 

That's why 平平凡凡也是一种幸福.
A simple to understand yet difficult to achieve goal in life. 
Reminded me of a quote I saw on Instagram the other day which I found really meaningful:

“The only time you look in your neighbor's bowl is to make sure that they have enough. You don't look in your neighbor's bowl to see if you have as much as them.”  ―Louis C. K
