Healthy Living

Most of you must b thinking.. how healthy can this glutton be right.. :p heehee.. have been trying (keyword is trying) to cut down on my carbo.. coz i was so busy.. and cant go gym.. so decided to cut down on carbo intake and start to prep my body for the annual detox programme (yes, the juicing period is here again! ONE year has past..OMG)

Was taking fruits and veg for the past week, but allow myself to eat a little carbo for my meals.. the only time i let loose was last nite.. at my auntie's place.. i cant help it but took more rice than I should and hahaha enjoyed my family dinner in bliss.. most of u oso know i am a carbo person.. gimme potatoes, rice, noodles anytime... i can whack all lah..

Actually juz got back from gym and went dinner with Lao Da, had ham and eggs, i SUP the entire plate lah.. rewarding a good gym workout.. heehee.. am still tinking if i should go tmr morning... prefer the morning as there are lesser pple.. not so crowded and would waste $$$ on cabfare too! Am planning to keep to this diet till end of next month, before i start on a full juicing programme, and hoefully will attain a mei mei figure after I finish (one very visible plus point of detox, but i like the feeling of detox.. coz u feel ur body is entirely cleansed and feel so much toxins are purged out)... think maybe I should start on my entire fruits and veg after next week for 2 weeks before starting on my detox.. but I very cheapo.. dun wanna "waste" my health supplements.. Yah, I have to take health supplements to ensure that my body still take in all the nutrients when i juice so i wouldnt look haggard and sickly after the juicing..

nothing much to blog about, other than a shopping spree at Borders and continued with a kopitiam football watching session @ Changi on Sat.. was supposed to go to Hard Rock Cafe for an event.. but coz Darling is nt feeling well so we wanted to go home and catch the Man U vs Arsenal match.. went to Changi Village to ta bao supper but ended watching the match there.. Always prefer to watch matches at crowded places (provided got seats) coz can KPKB and enjoy the atmosphere.. and when we were walking to the carpark, i was looking out for Bapoks.. aiyoh.. only got 3 miserable looking ones lor.. so sad.. where have the pretty pretty ones gone to.... coz that nite I was wearing a black off shoulder dress with tights, so I kind of look like one (i say so myself) coz I so tall and add on to the fact that I'm definitely nt petite so I told Darling, what if I stand there and got pple come approach me.. haha and he said.. u are taken liao.. booked by me.. hahaha.. but tink my dressing did raise a few eyebrows coz where got pple wear until like tat and then sit at kopitiam and watch soccer?



Me trying to irritae him


It was so crowded that my neh nehs are"squashed" to the edge of the table lor


Wanted to take pictures of 2 guys sitting in front of us, Man U fans lah, everytime there's a wrong pass or Man U made a slight mistake.. they will raise their hand and comment.. so thru out the match I kept seeing them raise them hands in the air in exasperation.. damn funny.. and one of the guys is very kuku looking.. Okie shall not have bad karma.. shall not comment on other pple..


Okie lah, nothing much to blog about.. juz some little bo-liao stuff.. alalala


Here's a little something for that someone:

Love the smile you have on whenever u see me
Hope I am able to bring on that smile of urs forever..

Take care peeps, especially in this momo month!

Random stuff of my life..

hahaha i know i know.. its being some time since I last updated... work load has increased and every nite I am working past 10 - 11 lor.. actually shld stay later so that can finish the stuff... main reason why i didnt is coz of the lunar 7th month... most of u may know what happened to me in my office before, i dun wanna play play lah.. and the other reason is coz am not paid OT, not reimbursed with the taxi fare (only can claim taxi once a month!!!) so I decided its not worth it to work late for a company whose policy is so axxx....

This weekend is full of activities lah.. caught The proposal with darling and my dearest sisters (Power and 00) and their other halfs! hahaha its a triple date! Though we sat 2 seats away from them and the couple between us offered to change seats, but we declined (anyway cannot talk during movie mah, so no point) but Thanx anyway!! ;) Yesterday was very eventful too, went buffet at Swissotel Merchant Court and was filled to the BRIM lah.. went to Ion and shop ernestly... hahaha and bought a denim mini skirt, 2 belts and a pair of shoes.. wanna shop more but was kind of put off with the fact that am carrying a super big bag (Pat Pat brought it specially to return me coz she knows i wldnt get my fat ass to pick up the stuff.. heehee thanx Pat pat!!) and i am super broke this month... then went to mass with darling and went in to office. Yes, u read it right.. no choice.. got some work to clear.. but coz we bought tix to watch UP, I only stayed in for ard 45mins.. :p still have work lah.. think will do on Monday... Bo bian liao.. have to stay have to stay..

P.s. shared with darling abt my buy and he said, thought u havea dozen of those (refering to the denim skirt). I looked at him sheepishly and say NO LAH!!! *whisper* juz half a dozen nia.. heehee

Am so addicted to BeJeweled Twist.. hahahaha think i am crazy over it lor... okie am off to play for a while before i get ready to meet darling to go woodlands for his niece's birthday..

Take care peeps!! Have fun and the month-end is coming!! Yeah payday!!

A long weekend that felt so short...

The "highly anticipated" long weekend has come to an end.. *haiz* its back to work and more work.. but let me recap what I did over this long weekend that felt so short..

On the 7th Aug, the fateful friday, met up with Darling's good fren, Colin, and his gf for dinner and drinks, thinking its a chill out nite.. went to Marutama Ramen @ the Central, nice ramen but not a wide variety. But the soup is damn nice lah and the ramen texture is not those you usually try at Ajisen Ramen, theirs is abit more springly and thinner, so the 口感 is very nice.. Yum yum..


A pic of us while Q-ing to be seated

Disappointmet: The sparse menu

After dinner, we walked to Boat Quay for drinks and we settled at Actors, have heard of this place and passed by the premise numerous times but never did I connect the 2 together. Basically, have heard of a place where you can go on stage to perform/jam and no no one will jeer at you.. I nvr know that Actors at the Boat Quay bridge is the Actors that the rest have been telling me about.. hahaha mi is really a mountain turtle.. went up the staircase which seems to have seen better days.. and we started drinking, Colin's gf doesnt drink, so whole night she only drank orange juice or some kind of cocktail..

We ordered 2 bottles of JW and started drinking.. next thing I remembered was that another good fren of his, Randall, came by and joined us and that's when we started on the 2nd bottle.. and by 1+, we started on the 3rd and shortly after, Colin and his gf left, thus leaving only Randall, me, my Darling and Colin's colleague drinking the last bottle. By then, I was kind of high and so is Darling.. hahaha we started to dance at the dance floor and singing loudly (mostly me) and I even started to head bang when I heard "Sweet Child of Mine" being played. =p My darling was mumbling through out the last part of the session and before that we had a good talk (though both of us were kind of intoxicated already) about what we want from this relationship, and I must say that I am very happy to have chosen him as my bf as he has shown me that he does really care and wanna a future with me .. *blush blush*



A pic with my darling... =)


Anyway, we left the place ard 2+, and we hopped on a cab, I was feeling damn pukish once on the cab already, but I tahan till the cab reaches my place when I tried to wake him up.. hahaha.. He didnt respond to my pleas and nudges.. :p seeing the cab driver is kind of pissed off, I got Darling out of the cab on the pretext that he staying over at my place... in the end, both of us end up at the drain doing a Pre-national Day celebration, doing a DOUBLE Merlion... 1st time in history and think the sight is damn funnie lah.. Darling being darling, insisted that he wants to go home as its not nice for him to stay over, even after much persuasion, he still didnt relent and I cant tahan any longer (need to puke again) so I left him to take a cab back himself... luckily he reaches home safely, if not I will nvr forgive myself.. :(

The next day was CRAP lah.. I gotta wake up with a damn jiak lat hangover and have to drag myself to dim sum with my best mates in poly, Hui hui and Mich. And the special guest is my god son, Darius! Miss him badly, the last time I saw him was last year lor.. tsk tsk.. but bo bian lah, Mich is very busy at work and I am guilty of poor time management too.. but tink will make an effort to meet up with them more often.. heehee... Have a good session with the girls and we even head off to Marina Square to buy some stuff and ended the night at Darling's place watching Shutter.. dunno if its becoz I am watching at his place, or that I've grown out of the phase for horror shows, the show wasnt as scary as previous time I've watched (though I just caught a part of it the previous time only)...

National Day itself was more eventful, spend the afternoon at Darling's sis place as its his nephew's birthday and I was the only Chinese there lah.. hahaha the sis-in-law even made fun of me and say that I will stand out in the pictures since all are Indians.. Quite a fun session, though I'm still abit paiseh.. but must say that his family make me feel very at ease, especially his sisters and brother.. even his mum.. his dad is a man of few words, so I dun expect him to talk to me alot lah.. :p then I made my way home to bathe and meet him for mass in town before making our way to catch the fireworks.. hahaha.. while everyone were crowding at the other side of Marina Square.. Darling and I sat just outside my office and watch the beautiful fireworks with BDB.. heehee.. The fireworks were awesome.. but the moment with him was even better.. :)


Sorry for the bad pictures of the fireworks, my camera nt very good (or I'm nt a good photographer lah)






Us enjoying the fireworks and Pocky.. hahaha


Wanted to stand up to say the pledge but didnt wanna get caught as there were policemen around to stop pple from crowding at the area.. abit silly I think coz alot of pple wanna catch the fireworks and why stop them? After that we went to catch the train to Tampines and we had a hard time squeezing thru the crowd.. reached Tampines and went to catch GI Joe.. nice show.. entertaining I must say.. :)

Last day of the long weekend was spent at home - nuaing and we went to the Borders bookfair, disappointing I must say, we came out emptyhanded... what discerning buyers we are.. hahaha went to Metro Expo.. disappointing too.. the brands there are really nono.. but at least Darling managed to get a pair of slippers.. :) Last stop was Harvey Norman Expo.. Good prices for the TVs and nearly got one.. but in the end we decided to wait till we plan what to do with his TV cabinet 1st before making a rash purchase.. ;) we ended our long weekend with a BK dinner and a long walk home from the Expo..

Life is simple yet beautiful.. *muacks* to my loved ones and thank you all for loving me.. :)

Food, Food, Glorious Food!

1st time I'm writing a food review.. heehee.. My darling and I have an ingenious plan of reviewing food that's near MRT stations and hope to give reviews of "famous" food and also recommend some nice eateries that are easily accessible for the public commuters.. :)

So the food stall reviewed is.... a ba kut teh stall @ Eunos MRT (just outside the MRT station, there's a coffeeshop, think its called Eunos Eating Station or something like that, you cant miss it coz there's only one coffeeshop)

Darling has always wanted to try the Ba Kut Teh here as he heard good reviews about it, so we decided to give our usual cant-go-wrong 85 Market a miss and settle our rumbling stomachs @ Eunos..

We ordered a $4 Ba Kut Teh, 1 plate of peanuts and added 1 Tao Kee (beancurd skin) after, total cost about $7.20... Here're the pictures.. :p


The bowl of Ba Koot Teh (as per the stall's naming) and peanuts (nice, not too soft with a little bit of crunchiness)


Darling posing impatiently for me to take pictures before attacking the food.. hee


Darling giving the soup the 1st try.. nice and flavourful was the verdict


Nice effort of removing all the bone (but some pple juz like sucking on the bone rite? Anyway, his verdict of the meat is not so nice, taste abit too porky)


Finished the soup before evening starting on anything.. went back for refill and was "full-filled"

Overall, the food was not too bad, though abit under our expectations. Can give it a shot if you are in the area, but no need to travel from Jurong to try lah. If you really coming from Jurong, then pls alight at Bugis, the Ba Kut Teh there is better. Will give you review of that place next time. Am abit scared of BKT these daes...

P.S.In fact, the fried half chicken I ordered was very nice. Fried till so crispy that I can even eat the bones (almost lah) but not too oily, so I would recommend the Fried Chicken @ the Western food stall (sorry no pics, coz it wasnt the stall we reviewing - actually this gives us another reason to go back and try the western food.. heehee)


The 2 Tam Chiak Reviewers

A normal conversation between my darling and moi

hahaha this may not interest any of you but I thought of penning this down coz it brings a smile to me whenever I re-read the sms which my darling and I exchanged this afternoon:

Darling: Finishing early today? Wanna go see fish?

Mi: U juz spent $$$ on the aros and still wanna spend more! U r so gonna lose the bet. Y u dun suggest go shopping? My birthday pressie havent buy!

Darling: Investment! Plan ur pressie already! This weekend have borders book fair at expo. Friday is the members preview so hopefully less ppl we can go get ur books
(Read: me only worth EXPO-ed books.. *sob* *sob* P.S. actually he paid for our 1-week holiday in Thailand already lah... :p)

Mi: Its expo! Y my stuff must get frm expo? =( .... I know u wldnt scrimp on me. u wld get me a 1 carat engagement ring rite? Hahahaha

Darling: Buy you one plate of ur favorite carrot cake!
(At this time, my eyes did the usual 360 turn and was slightly cocked after the stunt)

Then we used a few sms to force him to suggest selling a few of his aros to buy me the ring.. heehee and that's when I gave him the ultimatum:

Oh pls, at least a few K lor, or maybe more if u buy a tiffany or cartier one.. Its a heirloom..

Darling: Hmmm... Ure a heirloom!

Mi: Bt i cant live 4ever leh, so must leave something to the future generations...

Darling: BDB lor! (Btw, BDB = Baby Dino Bear is our little Baby bear which he gave for our 5th month anniversary)

I knew it! I just knew it! Hahaha but really recommend not to, coz BDB has the reputation of being Chucky in the hairy form.. Hahahaha and he mentioned that even Chucky doesnt want BDB as the bride lor.. it was so horrible of us anyway, here's a pic of the main lead of our conversation:





Hope that I didnt bore you readers with this very lame post (but I dun care, its my blog rite?? heehee..) Sometimes I was thinking, did he do this on purpose? What u all think?? Are all the Bfs or Hubbies the same??

Anyway, this constant jibbing at each other keeps the relationship alive so long both parties know that this is for fun and no hard feelings.. heehee

Anyway, think I may wanna dedicate a post to BDB entirely.... look out for it..
