Mr 305 Mr worldwide.

Hi! :D. *Waves frantically till hand drops*. The weekend is over but my happy mood isn't. Guess that's how you feel when half your summer sem is over. ^^v. Sorry ah, almost every post counting down to graduation. You don't know how it feels to have studied nearly 18 out of 22 years of your life. Anyhow, Legoland was an utter disappointment. Damn glad I didn't pay a single cent this trip (since the father in law won the hotel stay and Legoland tickets from KFC + the money we spent was from my Malaysian relative as an angbao) and only went in when it was about to close after eating all the good food. Legoland was so boring I can't even begin to describe...... Most rides were for kids below 12 and all exhibitions were repetitive, so bad I felt like leaving 5 minutes into it. 

Nonetheless, I had fun in JB with the food and company. Making the best out of everything yo. Haha. We went to Shun Fa BKT for brunch round I --> Teck Sing herbal chicken for round II brunch --> Check in at hotel --> KSL (Blackball and Megastar) for tea time --> Legoland --> Jusco Tebrau for pre dinner --> Pusat Tebrau's Restoran Mun for round 1 dins --> 59 for round II --> roadside stall for dessert. T♡ and I even went to eat mookata buffet (instead of T♡ cooking) after we were back the next day. Tsk. Ate so much, all my eat clean, insanity and gym-ing effort for the week has gone down the drain. Oh well. Day 1 tomorrow (resting today :X), again. No more outings magenty! You need to get back to pre T♡'s weight please please please. 

Till the next post.

Chef T♡!

Househusband cooking yo! :D. So loved! Heehee! :3. I wish I will be capable enough to be the sole breadwinner so he can stay home to cook for me all day lol. He will never do that, he's too chauvinistic to be a househusband for good. I can only dream~~~ Oh well. We have both concluded that he is the better chef. I thought I was good until I had his dishes, again. So excited for his next cook out on Sunday! So much love this weekend! Had breakfast in bed and homecooked dinner by him yesterday, today was spent nua-ing in bed together, Legoland tomorrow and he's cooking again on Sunday! :D. Loooong weekend together, happy are us. :D. :D. :D. 

Have a happy weekend too y'all! x

When a past love comes to haunt.

I thought I would penned down this feeling. I always ask "what have I done to deserve this?" when my heart is broken and I forget all about the bad karma I have accumulated. Today, I had a dream about marrying one of my almost lovers, one that I hurt the most. Even though he was an almost, I knew he loved me a lot and I just kept taking his love because he was always there when I needed love the most. I saw the way he looked at me, I saw the way he cried for me and I still did it. The next time I hate on life for something bad that happened in my love life (I hope never again), I know I have myself to blame. I'm a bad person. I'm sorry.

P.s. Nevertheless, a good dream, it reminded me the security T♡ gives me is unparalleled. I felt so insecure in the dream even when I did not have to worry about a house and what not.

Love and blessings.

Gleeeeeeful overjoyed ecstatic exhilarated elated delighted cloud nine happy heipi 开心 hoisum heureux huahee and all other synonyms! :D. I think 2013 will be a better year than last year and 2014 will be even better with all these love coming my way. *Beams with anticipation*. Haven't felt this complete in a long while, like I have every aspect of my life right (except still waiting for my house). :3. Heehee I hope these love and blessings stay with me. . #blissful.

Updates on my life let's go..
1) 
Got ourselves a stove over the weekend, I can finally cook a sunny side up  and also, back to chef T♡ era (he hates using induction cooker to cook)! :D. My stomach is growling for his signature dishes already. He made us chocolate chip pancakes for starter! Mad love, a husband who can cook! 

2) 
New found cheap sushi  hangout, Sushi Express! No photos of the food we had because we were gobbling down plate after plate. It's $1.50 per plate/ $1.70 with tax for all plates. My fave sashimi, lobster salad gunkan, chuka chinmi and chuka hotate are included! :D. The food tasted better than Sakae and it's definitely worth the price. Possibly my top fave for cheap Japanese cuisine. :D.

3) 
Another mookata place found at Moo Kata Huay Hwang Thai Place. It's tucked in the block of the shop houses opposite Swee Choon. It's mookata buffet, preferred this over HaPpY MoOkAtA. The service was a lot faster, they had a larger variety for BBQ-ing and they catered to Singaporean needs, they included vinegar, garlic and what not for our sauces option the way we eat chinese steamboat. Heh. Hope the husband's mookata crave overwhelms him soon so I can go eat again. :X.

4) 
Hulk  is growing bigger by the day and is becoming more obedient! I have started giving him human food like milk, apples and bananas. He loved it. He also had his first grooming therapy over the weekend, I think he hated it though. He ignored T♡ and I when we went to pick him up and all the way back home till I coaxed him with some treats. Must have thought we wanted to abandon him, silly boy. 

 5) I've finally got down to removing the irrinoying shadow/ border around the photos so now, I can use emoticons when I blog without them looking weird. . #likeaboss.

Bullies in my secondary school.

Puberty was a tough period for me, all of secondary days were actually. I spent the first one and a half years hating Monk's Hill. It was one of my last choices. I also had problems with the upper secondary school kids, mostly students from normal academic and the same clique. I guess the reason why was because I was in my own world and loud around my classmates so I think I irritated them a hell lot, I can see why looking back. They called my house phone up and refused to hang up, wanted to confront me in the female's toilet, purposely bumped into me in school and all. I even had a hate page on Friendster created by them when I never did retaliate wtf.  Pussy me. My supposed "friend" S gave them my number and "best friend" Z who were friends with them never spoke up for me. I must thank all of them though, they helped me become who I am today. I make sure I always fight for my right, never bow down to bullies or take less than I deserve and be careful with opening up to people. Most importantly, they taught me to face my problems instead of ignoring them. Ignoring doesn't solve anything. No, I don't hate any of them at all. I was just a vent for their insecurity and a target to bond over. Some of them are on my Facebook and I must say, I wish them well. 

The last half of my secondary II days were the happiest, a relief during the tough period. Upper secondary kids stopped finding fault with me, I found joy in studying, owning subjects I was good at when I barely studied/ paid attention in class (how my last minute studying a day before exam was cultivated), hung out with my then fave people at the Newton CC everyday~ #fondmemories.

The relief soon came to an end when I had my heart broken for the first time and news of the merger. I never liked BH to begin with, because my then boyfriend was cheating/ dating girls from BH he knew from some camp before our schools merged. According to T♡ and the BH friends, I was notorious and known before I entered the school. Lol. No idea why really. When our schools finally merged, I had problems with people from other graduating classes. They just kept saying mean words when I walked past them (rumor has it the cause was I led a guy who liked me on when I was attached?), I got fed up and confronted them in the middle of our combined class and went "what the fuck is your problem? anything say it to my face." <-- see what I meant about the change in my take on bullies? They confronted me at the end of school in return, about 16 of them (some of them are my friends now btw LOL) and I was solo-ing the whole confrontation (screaming at each other) alone yet I nearly pulled a punch at one of them but was stopped by Chanel. We later made peace through SMS after Adam Khoo's workshop. Super funny, yeenagers in action. Haha. Still, very thankful for the merger. I wouldn't have met T♡ and the BH clique. 

So yup guys, always retaliate when you meet bullies! You may be outnumbered or overpowered, at least you tried. You faced your problem, that's what matters. Captain America did it, so can you. "I can do this all day" — Steve Rogers.

 Magenta, Huiyi would have been very proud to meet you. #whatpubertydidtome. 

P.s. T♡'s first impression of me was I looked like a duck and had legs too slim for my body. My first impression of him was non existent, he's an acquired taste I only found attractive after we were almost together HAHA. :X.

Manatees and piranhas.

This post shall be dedicated to the eventful Saturday I had! :D. It's been awhile since T♡ and I've been out the entire day with programs filled from morning till midnight, moreover with friends. Heh. We are a very homely couple if you don't already know, we like to stay in to snuggle in army of pillows, have movie marathons, eat homecooked meals and hit the gym/ theatre occasionally. I digressed. Anyway, finally got to eat Tim Ho Wan (thanks to G who queued an hour for us, we arrived just to eat), saw the pandas at the River Safari, ended the day with lunner at Ichiban Boshi and mahjong session at our house.  ♡(^ㅂ^)/! 

Despite that it is two off my to go/ eat list in Singapore, I don't recommend going either now. Haha. It'd be more ideal to visit when the boat ride in River Safari is ready and the queueing frenzy at Tim Ho Wan has died down. The River Safari felt like a mini SEA Aquarium (though I've not visited) with 3/4 of the animals being sea creatures. For $25 per pax (discounted price some more due to boat ride that isn't ready), you can visit SEA Aquarium instead. The only saving grace for me was the pandas, so give it a miss if you aren't a fan. Kai Kai and Jia Jia looked very cuddly and smaller than I imagined. Kai Kai was basically stuffing his face silly with food while Jia Jia was walking in rounds. Hen ke ai! :3. 

As for Tim Ho Wan, *wait for it..*, not worth the queue and hype at all. Can't believe I desperately wanted to try since I heard wind of it. The only spectacular thing that was worth that Michelin star tasted heavenly was their signature char siew bao that is baked and not steamed. The rest of the dim sum I had was nothing short of ordinary, har gow/ siew mai/ fried spring roll with egg white/ chee cheong fun with pork + prawn variation were average like those you can find in any other restaurant, fried egg white roll fried beancurd skin roll (bland)/ century congee (watery)/ fried carrot cake (too soft) even tasted worse than Swee Choon IMO. Of course like I said, you should visit it only if there isn't a queue or even better, go when the takeaway counter is in service so you can just buy the Michelin Star worthy char siew baos and go. Just take it and go~ 

Photos after cut! Enjoy! Much love! xx
