One day we'd tell the story of us.

Everyday I am just counting down to the end of work, LOL.

Really miss being a student at times like this. Just went to collect my graduation gown with Manda just now, and LOL guess what, even the smallest mortarboard doesn't fit my head!? The service staff laughed at me and advised me to use lots of hair pins during my actual ceremony. *smack face*

Anyways, finally had a night out with Hui Qi. Headed over to Manna Story for dinner and I ordered my favourite classic kimchi fried rice! She got the cheesy kimchi fried rice which was great also!

(Cheesy Kimchi Fried Rice)

Then we decided to try Slappy Pancakes for desserts afterwards! If J knows that I went to eat desserts again after dinner, he will make me do heavy exercise again LOL. Previously he made me climb Bukit Timah Hill for three times consecutively lehs T.T

(Slappy Pancakes)

Hui Qi and I chose our toppings excitedly - we got bananas and blueberries and some custard sauce. But to our disappointment, the portions very little lehs for that price!? The pandan flavouring was not bad though!

(First attempt at making our own pancakes)

Guess what, Hui Qi tried making a Shrek-shaped pancake. LOL, the ear details damn on point please. But if I don't mention that this is supposed to be a Shrek, I bet nobody will get it right hahaha!

(Yes, I am basic)

I did a heart shaped pancake for my first attempt! As basic as it can be, but I thought it was quite well done! :D Shamelessly self praising myself.

(Next, animals)

I attempted kitty, while Hui Qi tried making dog shaped! P.S. I think my kitty looks more like a crab? LOL, our designs are getting from bad to worst please.

(Weird-looking apple)

Conclusion: Not worth going back again hahaha. It will be a fun date idea, but the food, taste and price wise is not that friendly/affordable/great!

你的友情，在我生活里就像一盏明灯。
照亮了我的心灵，使我的生命有了光彩。

The story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now.

Herbivore Japanese Vegetarian Restaurant

To all the vegetarians out there, you are no longer limited by your choices! This restaurant features a wide array of Japanese cuisine, ranging from vegan sashimi and sushi rolls to vegan tempura, katsu curry and even bento sets!

(Avocado Maki)

There are 8 pieces of avocado maki in total, and they comprise plant-based tuna, crab stick and Japanese cucumber roll in Japanese vinegar rice topped with avocado and dipped with mayonnaise and their special sauce. P.S. The tuna tastes legit, and this dish has to be my absolute favourite!

(Plant-Based Tori Karrage)

This plant-based Japanese fried chicken tastes similar to the real chicken?!

(Cheese Shiitake Mushroom)

I love the cheese?! It melts perfectly on the mushroom!

(Katsu Curry Set)

My dad ordered this Katsu Curry bento set. There is Japanese rice alongside deep-fried plant-based pork, and the set also comes with miso soup, salad and homemade dessert!

(Chicken Don Set)

For this set, the Japanese rice comes with grilled plant-based chicken, with salad, miso soup and homemade dessert as well. It fits my sister's palates, even though there is still a distinct taste between this mock chicken and the real chicken.

There are plenty of vegetarian options in Fortune Center. However, I always ended up back here somehow. (: Please take note that the food is on the pricier end, this meal costs $90 for the four of us!

Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room,
And we're not speaking and I'm dying to know
Is it killing you like it's killing me yeah

In the end, we'll all become stories.

Birthday Post #3

(Birthday Cake)

Met up with my long time friend JJ for dinner the other day to celebrate my belated birthday! (: So nice of him to get me a slice of cake, LOL. We tried so hard just to light up the candle because the wind was so strong!? The auntie and uncle from the other store even came over and tried to help us light up the candle with their big-ass lighter and after eternity, we finally managed to get it to burn (for less than a minute), but hey at least JJ finished singing the birthday song LOL!!

(Mazesoba)

Dined at the Japanese eatery, Kajiken, which is located along the Orchid Hotel at Tanjong Pagar! It was interesting because it was my first experience eating dry Japanese ramen, and initially I was deterred from entering the eatery due to the large amount of greens they put in the ramen?!

I would describe this dish, Mazesoba, as Singapore's Bak Chor Mee. The dry ramen noodles are mixed with minced pork, soft boiled egg and chopped vegetables. It was not too bad, the combination was quite well-balanced even for someone like me who doesn't usually eat vegetables!

(Macs Soft Serve)

On a side note, the McDonald's sweet potato waffle cone soft serve was the best I have ever tasted?! It was absolutely amazing even though it was more expensive at $2 each. Wouldn't mind eating it everyday - it's that good!

You're a sunflower

I think your love would be too much

Or you'll be left in the dust

Unless I stuck by ya

You know you can be small to the world, but big in someone's heart.

Birthday Post #2

(Ripped from Vox Cinemas)

On my actual birthday, I caught a movie called 'After' with my sister after work! It was a mad rush because the movie starts at 7.10pm, but I usually end work around 6.45pm on average T.T We ended up eating Macs for late dinner/supper after the show... Poor us LOL!

(Movie Preview Tickets)

I am not a fan of such American romantic films, but lady luck is shining on me and I won two free movie tickets from a giveaway contest! I have never heard of the movie before, but apparently it was based on a popular 2014 fiction novel of the same name written by Anna Todd.

Rating: 5/10

(Ripped from Twitter)

LOL, the movie has a predictable story line and the whole story plot was quite cliche. Will not recommend watching unless you have nothing better to do! Or if you think the male lead is nice looking HAHAHAHA :D

(Black Cha Shu Ramen)

On a separate occasion, I met up with my JC pals, Amanda and Christel, for dinner at Menya Musashi Kodou! These bunch of silly monkeys threw me a surprise with their presence LOL They didn't tell me beforehand that Christel was joining, so I was really pleasantly surprised hahahaha! Friends made parties worth attending, but good friends like y'all made the party worth remembering!

These days my Instagram were simply filled with stories of people heading to Japan for their graduation trips (even my mother and sister are in Japan now for their vacation). T.T No plans at the moment to head back there again (since I just went there five months back), so this Japanese ramen meal will suffice for now!

(Birthday Board)

Also, many thanks for the birthday board y'all made for me! Efforts 100/100 please! 😍

I am also blessed with a birthday treat from Clement and Lianjie! This was my first time at Big Fish Small Fish, because I am quite skeptical about them hahaha since they only serve fried food and I don't like fried food!

(Ripped from Eatbook.sg)

(Ripped from Eatbook.sg)

Gobbled down the food without taking photo (first time in history), because that idiot Lianjie made the two of us wait for him while he gym T.T We only had our dinner at 8pm, and I was feeling so hangry?! Hahaha, but thanks guys for being such fantastic friends and for remembering my birthday!

We ordered three sets of salmon fish and crisps, and the potato crisps are surprisingly tasty! I love their sauces the most, especially the salted egg and the cheese sauce. We also got their salted egg calamari with bonito flakes, it was great but gets a little jelat towards the end -because everything is fried and greasy and I don't have a habit of eating such food- LOL.

Overall rating: 8/10

Even though I didn't stay at Zion for long, but I am immensely grateful for having known Clement hahahaha. Thank you for being my greatest takeaway from the company, and for accompanying me during my times at Korea summer school, and for introducing me to another great friend Lianjie.

When our picture fades in the sun
And all the colours blur into one
I'll keep running
To the place where I belong

Living in the winter, I am your summer.

On 15 April, a princess was born.

(Learning every year to become a beautiful and strong soul)

It's my birthday, happy birthday to me!

On my birthday, I just want to wish myself pure happiness that never ends.

Disclaimer: The balloons were not mine, but my sister's. Stole them from her to take a photo because they were too pretty! Current status: the pink star-shaped balloon was gone long ago, but the round 'Happy Birthday' balloon is still going strong (after three weeks?!)

To my delight, the sister got me a mini juice blender for my birthday! I really love it because it is small enough to be carried out, but the best part about the blender is that it makes washing super easy! (Yes, I'm lazy). From the day I got my hands on the blender, I have been making avocado milk and banana milk non-stop, LOL. I think I am an expert already. :D

(Birthday Cake)

(It was supposed to be a strawberry crepe cake)

My sister went the extra mile to make me a birthday cake (the actual reason was because she refused to spend more money buying me a birthday cake) LOL! It was a crepe cake gone wrong hahaha, but okay luh A+ for effort! The cake doesn't taste bad or anything, just that it looks nothing like a crepe cake... Nonetheless, love you sister!

Also, many thanks to the boyfriend for getting me a new wallet, and for making me feel greatly loved! 💖

Birthday Lunch @ Lokkee

Somehow I was also at the same restaurant for my birthday meal last year too! What a coincidence?!

(I still find their wet tissue packets intriguing~)

(5 Spice Crispy Pork Belly)

(General Tso's Chicken)

(Stir-fried Kale)

(Grilled fish with Sichuan mala broth)

The main reason why I went back Lokkee was because people said that their grilled fish was real good, and it really didn't disappoint! There were no fish bones at all (I hate them), and the broth is just so freaking addictive that we tried asking for extra broth but the staff refused T.T But 10/10 will patronise the restaurant again because of their delicious food and excellent customer service!

Thanks mom and dad for the birthday meal!

On this special day, I remind myself every year how blessed I am to have been given another year to experience all the wonders of this beautiful world. To all my friends and family, a huge thank you for staying by my side, and joining me in my life journey.

You're the only one of you.
Baby, that's the fun of you.
And I promise that nobody is 
going to love you like me.

You are wonton in a million.

Hi all, hope everyone have been well!

Sorry for disappearing for such a long time - have been really busy at work. Three months into the company, and I am still slowly adapting to the way they work (and slowly finding back my momentum because my last semester at work have been quite slack yeahs LOL)!

This coming week will be a dooms week, with both my colleagues on leave and we have a new intern joining as well. T.T Need. to. fend. for. myself.

(Wanton Noodles)

Yew Tee Point opened a new stall, called Wan Tan Kia, which sells wanton noodles. My verdict is that this is too healthy for my liking because they did not use a lot of sauce. >.< So I guess for now, I will go back to Pontian for my wanton noodles fix LOL.

(Wan Tan Kia)

P.S. Their noodles are more expensive than Pontian too!

Anyways, this week has been relatively chill at work so I have been scheduling a lot of meetups recently with all my 'long-lost' friends LOL. Need that motivation / something to look forward to when work ends. I'm glad to say that it is a week of recharge!

Also, we finally had time to head over to Gain City for dinner over the weekends! They changed their ordering system again, so it was slightly confusing but I guess it is so much more efficient!

(Gong Bao Ji with rice)

(Pineapple Fried Rice)

(Sotong with rice)

(Mee Goreng)

I am very particular about food, so I would say that the dishes are not quite up to my standard. However, my family and I always head back to the restaurant because we love the environment! No queues, easy to find seats and strong aircon. #priorities

Will update again once I looked through all the photos on my phone. I realised that there are so many things that I want to post about (read: my graduation trips), but I just don't seem to have time anymore. T.T Okay, but at least I have time to mask tonight. Yay!

It's all about love. We're either in love,
dreaming about love, recovering from it,
wishing for it or reflecting on it.

I promise that you will never find another like me.

Happy birthday to my amazing little sister!

Growing up with you was fun, the world is so much brighter with you in it. Today, I just want you to have the best of your day, explore and have a blast. ❤

(Fleur De Lychee)

The sister requested to get her birthday cake from Rive Gauche. We have tried their signature chocolate cake which taste super amazing, so this time round I bought her the Fleur De Lychee instead for a change.

In all honesty, this is really a pretty piece of artwork cake perfumed with osmanthus flowers. There's different layers of vanilla sponge and lychee cream jelly, and their flavours are beautifully balanced. To my delight, it wasn't at all sweet.

(Rive Gauche Patisserie)

But for $38.80, this small cake is not very worth it lehs. I ordered online so I didn't have a gauge of the size. I cried tears of desperation when I went to collect it. (Okay quite exaggerated here but yup you get my point).

Lesson learnt: just stick to their chocolate cake. There's a reason why it is their signature.

(This. Is. So. True.)

Also, JH sent me this recently, and I thought it was a super accurate description?! Hahahaha, but okay I am willing to spend more for your birthday (read: birthday cake and birthday present, both of which cost a bomb). BUT ONLY for your birthday, please pay up for the rest. Kthxbye. LOL!

For dinner, we drove all the way to the East (Kampong Glam) for Middle Eastern cuisine! The restaurant is called Lubnan Authentic Lebanese Cuisine, and we were all quite excited because this was the first time we were digging in to Middle Eastern. Thanks parents for being open-minded (:

(Blueberry Ayran, Lubanese and Turkish coffee)

Verdict: Turkish coffee tastes so much nicer than Lubanese coffee! I love the blueberry ayran, a yogurt drink which is quite refreshing.

(Chicken Fatteh)

The photo on the menu looked weird, but thankfully we still went ahead to order this! Marinated strips of chicken breast prepared with toasted pita bread, covered with yogurt sauce, parsley and pine nuts. Simple dish but it just makes me crave for more!

(Chicken Shish Tawouk Wrap)

Marinated chicken cubes that is charcoal grilled, served with Lebanese garlic sauce and fries. Hahaha, when we were presented with the menu, I was busy googling for the names of the dishes because they are all so foreign to us! The fries are quite normal, but the sauce is amazing. The wrap taste even better, but I think that Stuff'd (fast food chain) does a good job at pocket-friendly prices too. LOL.

(Lamb Mandi)

Essentially, this dish is roasted lamb marinated with saffron and Arabic spices. The meat is juicy and tender, but I figured that chicken still suit my palates better. LOL This is my personal preference ah.

(Adana Tavuk Kebab)

Skewered minced chicken, spiced and grilled on charcoal topped with a special tomato sauce. The chicken is a little dry, but the sauce is to die for!

Our verdict: Try one time enough!

The food is quite expensive lehs, but the restaurant owner is from Turkey so I guess the food we eat is really authentic as what they say. My dad says he prefer his Chinese food, and I say I want to save the money and try different cuisine next time! :D

(Kampong Glam)

This is how Kampong Glam looks like at night! I am ashamed to say that this is my first time there after twenty three years. LOL!

But one of these things is not like the others
Like a rainbow with all of the colours
Baby doll, when it comes to a lover
I promise that you'll never find another like me.
