Chinese New Year 2013 happenings

(Beware: long post=P)

Before CNY~

This year I can say I got abit of luck. Hehe I won the below from my company lucky draw. Reali tks to my company's supplier who send us a hamper.

My boss also bot us the yu yan sheng's lucky drawvoucher but I think we dun reali have the chance to win the ipad mini cuz so many people are taking part in the lucky draw voucher. He also bot some more can of abalone and pan cai for the following day lucky draw. 

New Taiwan Stall at Tampines

Thank godness my bf is staying at tampines and his mum told him that his hse nearby got this newly open taiwan stall: Liu He Taiwan Night Market Snacks. I was so keen in trying it as I am a lover for taiwan snacks and food!! =p

We had this mee sua but is not those traddtional oyster mee sua. Is chicken mee sua. Heard from my bf tat tis stall change most of the recipe to more singapore style. This bowl of mee sua was indeed more towards singaporean taste as it was spicy enough. The chicken quite well done.

Lao Ban Dou Hua

For those who like to eat soya beancurd, you sure have heard of the above. It has a stall at the old airport rd hawker centre. The first time I try, I immediately luv the smooth texture of the soya beancurd. I feel as though I am in heaven. LOL. But if you are late to reach the hawker centre especially at night, you wun't be able to get even just one as they are really hot sellers over there. But fret not, they have open a small stall just near to the tampines mrt, even late at night around 9pm, you still would be able to get one as they don't close early. I really envy those who stay at tampines.

Some weeks ago, I went to tampines again and was surprised that they have sell another flavour which is the almond flavour( as shown in the photo with the red colour cover). Almond flavour taste so nice and smell fragant. Slurp=p  I think i more prefer almond flavour. Hehe~

1st blog post for Year 2013

Aha after some time, this shall be my first post for this year =p

A summary of last yr...

Good tings:-

I was so excited to being invited by HDB to book a unit of my future hse and signed the lease of agreement. I have nv tot there is so much to take note about. Although this flat location is not the one which me n my luv was targeting at initially, but I am so gald we are goin to have a little space of our own. (=

Career wise seems like things are getting beta per year, more improvement in my wrk and compliment from colleague and boss. Get very seldom nag by boss and know how to handle things in mature and professional way.

Bad things:-

Had been like sort of roller coaster mood during certain months. I just realised certain people aren't worth your time on them. You have been nice to them, being there for them but yet what they give you is invisible hurt. But I am gald that once I get myself out of the hard time, over time I have been tougher than ever. No longer the gal who is so weak and veri easily bully with. This shws that no one can easily take advantage of me.

I believe this year will be beta year den last year!! ^~

Chiso Zanmai (Japanese Buffet Restuarant)

Differences between Malaysia and Singapore wedding banquet

Past two weeks ago, I went with my group of fren to attend our fren wedding lunch banquet at Malaysia, Segamat. It took us about 4 hours to reach there as we travel there by coach(pre-arrange by my fren).

My fren wedding lunch start only 1.30pm but since we reach there about nearly to 12pm, we went to nearby shopping centre(see picture above). Hmm. Actually nothing much.. =p

Whampoa Famous Bian Mian Stall

Seriously, I never had food that make me so addicted and wana eat the same food for serveral. Currently my workplace is located to the whampoa food centre. There quite a couple of famous which have been advertised on tv before. So today let's talk about one of the stall which I like the most.

Itacho Sushi

Had tis last thurday w birthday gal meizhen since she want try out this.. Hehe

The foods which we ordered. 

Starting from 1st row(left to rite): Cheese shrimp sushi,eel & grilled pork sushi; soft shell crab handroll sushi,  scallops with fried tofu, salmon, octopus, scallop sushi and lastly crab salad...

I would definately recommend  the grilled pork sushi & crab salad. The pork sushi is so juicy and taste just right as the crab salad is yummy, zuccui is super fresh and crunchy. Goes damn well with the fish roe too. Next time round I shall try make one. We are seated near the sushi bar so we can clearly see how the chef make the sushi. Once ready they will pass it to you directly, is like so frenly the people over there. ^^  It's a rare kinda experience. Price veri reasonable so end up each of us paid about $20++.

So fren do check it out!! Btw this outlet we went to is at Bugis Junction.

My luv was craving for some buffet last sat. Initally wana try out the korea bbq at City Sq Mall but the review online was not that good. He managed to find a better one:  Ssikkek Korean Grill BBQ Buffet. We went to the Oriental Plaza outlet.

Think is best to make reservation before you come as when we both reach there, alot of people was already waiting outside. Total they have four outlet including this outlet. One more outlet which they did not stated on the banner as shown above is Tampines one.

A date with my dearie fren

My Bra Bag Organizer

Was randomly surfing qoo1o(previously known as gmarket), and I chanced upon the bra bag organizer. N I think i need it cuz the space whereby i put all my bras is kinda unsightly. So I just order from one of the seller after reading their buyer review on them.

I initially wana order button clip on type but this seller seems to have out of stock for this type of design so I order normal one with zips. To my surprise, it reach me quite fast. Shipment supposed to be estimated yesterday but when I reach home today it was at my house already. ^.^

Not only I can put around 5 bras inside, I can even put in some of my panties as well. This bag will comes in handy if some day I go for travelling again.

A closer look at the compartment for putting inner garments. By the way here the seller which I get this bag from: http://list.qoo10.sg/gmkt.inc/Goods/Goods.aspx?goodscode=403495637 Thanks to this bag organiser, my wardrode is much more neater now. (=

No Signboard seafood resturant

This blog entry is so way back dated.. LOL. Anyway this outlet was at geyland there. My Boss have no idea what to do with the spare cash after selling some of the company items, tks to one of my colleague; he suggest to him y not eat seafood.. So here we are! Tell u, it has been ages that I have eaten one of my favourite seafood - crabs.. I am so looking forward to it lor.. But hmm..the food some of it not really up to standard..

The Fierce Wife Movie

Yeah yeah~ Finally waited for this movie to come to singapore. Uhoo~ Juz watch w my luv on friday.. Consist of comedy,sad and nice ending.. I not sure why some DJ say is a lousy movie whereby is a nice movie lor. I like the ending lots. Can say is a expected and perfect ending. Guys who not yet watch should go and watch. I got a different feel when watching this movie as is not so drama and yet so simple storyline.. ^^

Nickname - gd or bad??

Just finish watch the channel U's talk show: Let's talk 3 on xinmsn.

Before I share my personal opinion, let me first share my own personal experience.. During my secondary school times, I not too sure why I was given this nick: Ikan.Up till now is still a mystery to me.. By the way, this nick was given by a group of boys in my class. But anyway I  dun reali bother much cuz they dun seem to have any bad intention to hurt me. I feel that I am qutie well-liked by them. Cuz I was like the centre of attraction.. LOL. Slowly the rest of my class even my female classmate also start to slowly call me that.

Like any other gal, I hate ppl say I am fat but yes during sec.sch I was indeed plump. I rem there was one day when I was wearing my gal guide uniform, there is a group of boys commenting on me n say I look so ugly n fat still want join gal guide. I hate tat kinda comments and I feel that they are just brunch of idoits who only care about looks.
