HL's birthday celebration at Brotzeit for dinner.

Ling looks cute in her new hairstyle.

Bo song HL.

I'm starving and Linda finally arrived.

My cappuccino.

Ling's expensive small tomato juice. We say maybe it's organic.

Sauce!

Bread.

Sausage platter.

Seafood platter. Love the smoked salmon most.

Mussel Guys for dinner part 2. We ain't even 1/2 full.

Spicy mussels.

Creamy mussels.

Mushrooms.

Chicken wings.

Ling posing with the chicken wing.

We sat outside because vivo's aircon is so damn freezing cold!

Next, celebration at Kbox Safra Jurong! KW managed to join us!

I didn't know HL can sing 1 night in Beijing.

Be sure to check out my Facebook for his live performance!

KW sings well too. Got feel!

Me and Ling.

Linda and me!

Yes, the k-ing was super fun!

High till max when everyone sang First Day together!

Oh finally! Besides mahjong, we've got another activity in our list!

The ceiling's pretty!

The day ended at 4am, only slept at 5am and woke up 2pm today.

All of us admitted that we're old now.

We're no longer young enough to stay up late. KO! LOL!

On my 24th birthday.....

Met up with Bren, Linda, HL at Marina Square for dinner. Ling supposed to join us as well but was caught up at work.

Time for snacks, before actual dinner!

Bren with her avocado drink.

I'm totally awful, I know.

This is a terrible mistake.

HL says it is nice.

They ordered this dish twice or thrice, I can't remember. Bren loves cha siew. She stopped eating for awhile after watching 见鬼 (ghosts licking cha siew sauce). LOL!

Our actual dinner at Manhatten Fish Market.

Mushroom soup.

Seafood platter, non-spicy. HL and I finished everything in this platter, while Linda and Bren are struggling like hell. We are big eaters! Erm, actually HL ate much more than me.

Seafood platter, spicy.

After dinner, headed to HL's house for overnight mahjong! That night was my night! Mine and no one else!! I won over $100! 满台，平胡，all 自摸!! Terrific! This is my mahjong unbeatable record. My birthday luck is so damn good!

Sunday morning woke up by delivery man. Honey sent sunflowers to me!

Sweet. Thanks Honey bun!

Attended Doreen's wedding dinner on my birthday.

Buddy Louis and his wife. Going to attend their dinner next year.

Ex ex-colleagues, still the same funny people.

Me with the happy couple!

The most suprising surprise happened after the dinner. I took a cab home because it was late and I gotta work the next day. Reached my block at around 1130pm and the moment I alight the cab, I heard someone calling my name.

HL and Linda were waiting for me!!! Damn shocked! They were in time, just before the clock strikes 12 midnight.

They are the representatives. Got me a cake and a watch.

Happy me cutting the cake!

JY gave me a treat at dong dong dong (you should know what restaurant).

I ate like a cow.

Enjoyed myself totally! Thanks everyone for all the good company, food, presents!

XOXO!

I would say that life doesn’t change too drastically without Honey by my side. Maybe, just a little bit of loneliness. MISS YOU HONEY BUN!

As you all may know that my sister already got married and moved out, the house will definitely be quieter. I always try to go home early, so at least my parents get to see me before they head to bed. As usual, my daily routine after dinner is to switch on my laptop, connect to MSN and Skype and talked to Honey. Sometimes, we can’t talk online as he got to go for classes and by the time he got home, it is already past midnight in Singapore. Another way out is that I got up half an hour earlier in the morning and he sleep at midnight; this is the time whereby both of us are confirmed at home.

Friends have been really sweet to show concern, checking if I’m coping well. Thanks everyone! Ling messaged me this morning to ‘book’ me for next weekend. Yes, it is my birthday. I don’t really need celebration, just a gathering with good friends around me. Playing mahjong would be a good entertainment for all of us.

Went shopping at Marina Square and Orchard with parents and sis weeks ago, also brought them to try the Modern Peking Duck at ION basement, R Burger, etc. Got my winter down jacket and some accessories for my trip, need to buy a good pair of boots too! I simply cannot contain my excitement flying on SQ A380 to London and Paris on New Year’s Eve!

The drawback is that 9 days is too short but I’ve got no much leave, Honey and Joel are having their exams right after the trip, and Pounds are still Pounds after all even though it depreciates. Nevertheless, I’m still so happy to step foot on the beautiful cities!

Countdown 78 days more....

Junior baby 4th birthday!
This time round, 2 doggies came to join in the celebration.

Jr and Ted.

Got in a fight. Ted is not a single bit afraid of Jr.

With their doggies.

Hello Jr, it is all yours! You do not need to snatch and gobble.

Satisfied!

Ted's turn.

Yang Yang did not take any treats. Look, he is so damn adorable!

Ted is resting after persistently sniffing Yang Yang's butt.

Yang Yang just can't be bothered. LOL!

They are lovely little doggies. Aren't they?

Oops! I realised that the birthday boy appeared fewer times than Yang Yang in the photos.

Sorry Jr. Next year okay?

Now, left only Jerard alone. Sounds so sad lol!

HTA and Mr Lau.

His family, without his sister.

Ling came too!

HL and DJ speed to reach on time.

Linda is the best. Left her car by the dropping off point and her car was almost tolled away. Police came with a dog and sniff her car for bomb. Biggest drama of the night!

All of us.

Honey is many many miles away from me now. I miss you so much!

I have not get use to the 7 hours difference, have to talk to him very early in the morning before I go off to work.

I just hope time will pass faster and the torturous 1 year period will soon come to an end :(

Early 24th Birthday to both of us!



Honey managed to surprise me successfully with this birthday cake from Canele. Lucky, this time round I didn't buy a cake too. If not, we will end up with 2 cakes again.

Nice strawberry shortcake.

Saturday dinner at Inakaya Robatayaki, Orchard Parade Hotel.

Sauce for meat, seafood and veggies.

Chefs are kneeling while preparing our food.

Soon, it was full house. People are so willing to spend on eating.

The waiters are all Japanese. They shouted our orders out loud to the chefs and they will bend over, pick the fresh ingredients and cook them right infront of us.

Long wooden paddles for serving food.

Their cooking area, surely hot.

These are my birthday presents. Well, actually I got more because Honey bought me heels, long cardigan, supplements on other days too.

For my serious motion sickness. Seasick, plane sick, you name it all. I have not tried on it yet, but will sure do on the flight to UK. 14 damn hours, I doubt I can survive.

This is out of my imagination.

He got me this black Swaroski leather bracelet, which is love at first sight but was rather taken aback due to its price. I felt it was too much to pay for such a simple design, nevertheless Honey got it for me.

LOVE YOU HONEY BUN!

This is my Beautiful.

On board yacht on Sunday.

Off we go to the sea!

My office building in sight.

Kayak over to the opposite island.

No more pictures because I felt so sick, so seasick even after I took the motion sickness pill.

When will all these motion sickness stop bugging me?

I hate it, seriously.

Honey and Joel's farewell at Dim Joy.

As the name says Dim Joy, dim sum with joy but eating dim sum on that day no longer seem a joyous event because we were walking in the rain trying to find the place. It is so hidden that 3 pairs of eyes are able to miss it. The usual late comers, Joel and Fate were there earlier than us. Irony.






$3 green tea. Premium.

High ceiling right above us. Pretty.

All the dim sum we ate as follows.

Second last of our list.

Egg tarts are my favourite, top of the list!

Custard bun.

Menu.

Mango pudding.

Black sesame paste. It took over porridge ranking.

Dinner at ION Hokkaido ramen restaurant.

Super green tea!

He can't get what the waiter is talking about. So am I.

King crab ramen is so super expensive!

$1 egg from Japan. The yolk just melts in your mouth.

I've been really busy at work as colleague is on leave and I'm definitely yearning for the weekend break!

This weekend is so fully packed!

Looking forward to see the guys on Friday for steamboat!

Saturday for early birthday celebration for Honey and myself, going to eat at a Japanese restaurant at Orchard Parade Hotel.

Sunday going on board yatcht for Honey's dad birthday, surely need to pop some motion sickness pills.

I know I'm so lousy. Whatever.
