Merry XMAS and Happy New Year to all I love and care! Did you guys enjoy gatherings, parties, presents and foods?

This year, not much celebrations for me. I had one BBQ gathering with Secondary School friends and haven't got the chance to celebrate with my Poly buddies. But we will have one soon, I guess so...

**********

Love!

My first XMAS with Baby... ... :)

I enjoyed my Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with Kenneth. We were at Orchard on both days. On the eve, I dressed in my new clothes (I got lots from online shopping) and boots. Haha! I always wanted to dress up well during Christmas, especially going out with a group of friends. On the actual day, I put on my new vest even though the weather was quite hot that day. Hee! Vainpot!

Fun!

Yummy Yummy Makan!

Gifts For Him and For Her

Happy New Year to you from us

5 months ago Birthday Celebration

Monday, December 22, 2008

I remembered that I didn't bring camera that day. Dan took all the photos and only in Oct, I saved them from her. Haha! Joline celebrated her birthday in July (5 months ago). I only blogged now when I saw the folder in "My Pictures". Sorry, Jo!

She treated us ~ she organised a BBQ for us. We brought some food too - Dan prepared bacon rolls, as usual I brought satay.

We got a strawberry shortcake for Jo. I know the cake is nice but the cake melted and became out-of-shape. Jo, what did we get for you? Hee!

After the celebration, we went for KTV and sang all the way till 3 a.m. Oh, this is all I remember... Hee! One more thing, this is the day when Kenneth learnt how to cycle. Haa!

Knitting?!

Happened to see these photos... I spent some money on these stuffs sometimes back. Actually I have more than what these photos shown. I was suppose to learn from Dan and only learnt to knit two basic stitches. Don't know how to see errors and count stitches... I gave up, not enough patience, no time... I only managed to complete one pathetic handphone pouch for my slim phone.

Lawrence and Qin Ying's Wedding

Friday, December 12, 2008

Before my trip to Malaysia, my family attended my cousin, Lawrence's wedding on 2nd November. It's really embarrassing to say that we are not close. We don't even visit or see each other during Chinese New Year, see... not even once a year. Sad right?

So when we met that day... it's like "Wow! We have all grown up!"

The wedding was held at Mandarin Oriental in a very cosy ballroom. I like the ambience, not very crowded, gave me a warm feeling. It was a lunch reception, having the tea ceremony before the lunch. I remembered it was raining that day...

A Belated Birthday Entry

This entry is almost two months late. What am i doing these days?? Hee...

The girls gathered to celebrate Dan's birthday. We had dinner at Aston Specialties, the one which is located at The Cathay. Whenever we passed by the one at Katong, the queue is always very long even during weekdays. People said the steak is nice and the price is reasonable. How can we not try it?

That day was a Wednesday and we queue for almost an hour. The way they served is like how Kenny Rogers served - select one main course and two side dishes (hot or cold). I remember each of us only paid around $12. The steak wasn't really good, slightly hard but probably I ordered medium cooked. Other main courses (chicken/fish) taste much nicer.

What did we get for this birthday girl? She received her favourite rose wine, a cardholder, a book and face lotion. She also got P.Osh brownies as her "birthday cake" without candles cos we always forget to bring lighter. All of us got a bit of every flavour and all agreed that the mint one is the best. The mint topping blended nicely with the chocolate and not as sweet as the rest.
