Technically, it’s my holidays right now but on the other hand, I’m working. So it doesn’t make much of a difference to me. Just that there won’t be any night classes for now. I’m enjoying it totally. Next week is my results postings, so wish me all the best.
There was a day in a week to relax and think about happenings that has just gone by. How God had blessed me and to stop and take a look at his beautiful creation that we always so tend to miss out. On a trivial note, I’ve purchased my first lap top in my life! A sexy Dell Studio 15 in purple! Can’t wait for it to come! I’m such an IT geek but yet I’ve never had a laptop with me ever. haha! Reason? I refuse to be too mobile. Why? Because I do enjoy being not being able to do anything until I get back home/work. I live to work not work to live. Only need God to live because he has already provided, else I don’t know if I’ll ever be on this earth and know wonderful people and experiences.
I’m thankful for having a reservoir across my hse even though I don’t use it so frequently.
My quiet moments from all busy-ness of life.
For the raining days, I get to wear my fav knitted cardigan out in Singapore and NOT look crazy.
Rainbow! Can you spot it? (Above the building)
It’s really faint but beautiful.
Yum… Japanese products never fail to bring great taste!
Met up with QiQi yesterday and it’s been a while since we met up so frequently over the weekends. I’m beginning to sound like a turtle cooped up at home but that’s… sadly a FACT! There’s so many things I’m so dying to do but I can’t because I’m financially not supported. Maybe I didn’t trust the Lord enough to let him do his work in me. Trust me, I’m deadly self independent which is not good at all. Not all the time, specially when it comes to relying on God. I know I’ve been so blessed with so many things. But I definitely trust that if he wants me to do something, I’ll gladly do so. I’m in anticipation because He is love and will work all things good for us.
The purpose of why I host a blog is NOT because I’m so free to blog daily. I do last time but not now anymore, sadly. First, I want to update those who care about me that I’m doing okay. Facebook is an alternative but it doesn’t say much. haha! Second, I wish to be able to encourage people who reads my blog. I probably don’t have the BEST English ever anymore alright but as long as you understand what I’m writing… it’s the core purpose. (Didn’t mention that I got a comment for my bad english. I will be lying if I said I wasn’t sad but it’s the truth!) Most of the time, I would try to get my pictures to tell the story for me because I’m failing so badly in my English that I can’t seem to write good stuff all the time!
I dream of so much but I hope to stop dreaming so much and let it become reality. I have plans for this end of the year, so much in store for this year that I pray that it would be possible and that I will be blessed with so much. I always get questions like “Why is there so many things you look forward to doing?” or “Why are you so happy all the time?”. Hmmm… If you ask me why? My joy is from the Lord and when I’m filled, joy comes from within. Trust me, if you put my favourite star in front of me. That extreme joy will only last for a min and nothing more. Don’t you agree? Nothing on earth has lasting joy long enough to make me feel contented.
For your takeaways, on what/whom do you put your joy in? And will it last for the longest time (forever)?
If you’re reading this. Thank you and continue doing so.
Happiness… Such a huge cup of bubble tea!
(Can you see the bliss in my hands?!)
Miss Ng and oyster mee suah!
(Won’t be Miss Ng for very long! haha!)
I have bad cinnamon cravings since I came back from Korea!! Anything that smells and sounds like cinnamon just grabs my attention immediately! I know it’s bad when you start liking songs that has cinnamon name in it. Lol!! I even made honey and cinnamon drink so often. Afraid that there might be a overdose of cinnamon dose, I looked up online and *Phew* hardly any overdose side effects.
I made cinnamon rolls today and I’m surprised that it was done faster than expected. Say about 45 mins and lesser? It kinda turned out to be a scorn type or cinnamon roll. Hmm… I wanted it to be the cake type but I can’t expect it to turn out that way because I didn’t use egg at all! Just baking mix and milk. Easy!
My yummy metal starbucks mug!

Oh, curious to know about the cinnamon song that I’m hooked on recently?
I’m always looking forward to weekends! Seems like work life is getting into me already. I forgotten what is school holidays, when it is school holidays and stuff like that but I definitely won’t forget that I LOVE school holidays! Haha!
Food Review: Pasta Fresca (Siglap)
Loves:
Ambiance was awesome, very comfortable and the air con wasn’t too cold. It was in a nice temperature. Met up with Jolyn and Pei Lee for dinner and it’s the first time I’ve been to this place or even Pasta Fresca itself. I’ve know this shop has been around for ages but I’ve simply never took a step in before until last week. I’ve missed out a lot!!
Tiramisu was AWESOME!! It’s so smooth and light, the alcohol wasn’t too overwhelming as well. It’s lovely. One of the best I’ve ever tasted so far… PLEASE try this if you’re at Pasta Fresca! I’m not so much into Crepes but this one is still pretty okay. Nothing amazing like Tiramisu but I have to say it’s very much on personal taste.
My main course! Lasagna! I love the ones my aunty used to make, it’s awesome. This one is still pretty okay, not the best best that I’ve tried around. In a good size, anymore I would have been sick of it. Mind you, Lasagna is very rich and high in calories! Yummy too.

My upper wisdom tooth
The day after my amazing dinner, I had to extract my wisdom tooth. I’ve spent at least 1k on 3 wisdom tooth and this one cost me $99!! At that 30 mins, I was $99 poorer. Sigh. I should be smarter and take up dentist as my course last time. Didn’t think of it until now. Too late for that now.

Granny’s Dumplings!
My cousins and I decided to pop over to our Granny’s place to make dumplings! It was something I’ve always wanted to try but never done it until recently. Trust me, my granny showed us how to wrap it. It looks so EASY but guess what? Never judge a book by it’s cover. I nearly died trying to get the right shape… and so I kept doing it the way I wanted. You can see my beautiful butterfly shape below. Haha! New design alright!
Oh, did I mentioned my Granny beat us out flat!! We had 4 people to clear 2 sets of rafia strings but she cleared 2 sets of refia strings on her own while we’re struggling to with 1 and a half!! How embarrassing is that. Not only that, we even made a mess on the floors and table. Granny rocks! Nobody can beat her to her home made dumplings, it’s the best! I’m biased, period.

She who is afraid of fishes…
My best friend here, is afraid of live fishes. lol!! She was so scared to just put her feet in to let the fish “chew” on it. It was super ticklish, though I shocked by how big the fishes were at first. Thanks to her, I get another 30 mins of fish spa. Got clean feet now. Thanks QiQi!
Since last Friday till Wednesday, I’ve been choing-ing my studies with Stanley. I’ve never been so hardworking my life before. Period. The amount of money I spend during the last week was insane too. I think I literally spent like $100 on food itself. Geez.
What’s the outcome of my one week of studies?
I screwed up so badly that I cross my heart, fingers and soul that I don’t fail. :( Trust me, when I say bad, it’s worst scenario bad. Only God can save me now. On the brighter side of life, I’m enjoying my break until I get back my results. Good thing I’m not really effected by things like that. To me, it a good thing. Tell me who likes to be burdened/annoyed with something day and night? It’s a day and nightmare.
I got Stanley hooked on scrabble. hahahaha!! Maybe I wasn’t studying very hard after all.
Mua Sister & Me!
Egg and Black long bean.
Me: Eh. Elaine, guess which is mine? Elaine: The white one lar! Me: So obvious arh. T.T Elaine: Cos you’re never dark. White like mine. Me: *Sigh, I need a tan NOW!*
The very OBVIOUS downtown east.
My Aunt booked a chalet the same week my exam start and ended. Very good timing indeed! You could say I was enjoying my one week life as a full time student. Sadly, that is over now and I’m back work reality by tomorrow. I’ve always wanted to try living a life as a student overseas. As of now, I don’t see it as a possibility partly because I’m not compelled to do anything now. Another thing is I don’t see an opening for me, so I’ll keep it one side in my treasure box for now.
I’m like promising a handful of people to go overseas with them this year. Aiyo. What’s worse is I don’t remember how many people I have promised!! Well, my main intention is to go mission trip this year if it doesn’t clash with my school exams. Right now, the dates are not confirmed but I’m putting it as priority as I’ve been thinking of it for the longest time… like my Japan trip. I need to be rejuvenated from the soul and somehow my heart is telling me that… that’s the only way for now. I’m sorry girls, if I can’t make up for anything I’m promised. Have to make sure it doesn’t clash with QiQi’s wedding too else, I’m going to have a big headache. Haha!
Me, need I say more?
Next week is my results postings, so wish me all the best.
