Come as you are. As i want you to be.
Last 4th February was his 30th and because we just got back from Bandung, i figured we should just take an additional day leave and celebrate.
Nothing special, we did some errands with the in-laws and was still figuring out what to have for dinner.
We settled for Sakura Charcoal Grilled & Shabu Shabu cos we’ve never been there and they have just acquired their Halal Cert. So off we go to ther other side of Singapore. Like really the other side. Punya lah jauh…. Jin nak singgah pun malas.
nothing beats a girl night out on a Friday night, especially when you have known these girls for 17 years!
Catched up with my girls last Friday at Aquamarine @ Marina Mandarin Hotel for a much-needed gossip session. The night was filled with marriage jokes, advice, tips and plentiful of laughter. We headed to Nabins after that for drinks and continue our chit chat, where i mistook a guy wearing black for their staff (which is so embarassing)
Now, about the food, Aquamarine is not a bad place to have your buffet fix. I especially love their Cold cut selections especially their sashimi (oh i love sashimissss) But i just find that their tables are placed to close to each other, u can probably hear what your next door neighbour is talking about.
But i rate it below Carousel and above Asian Food Market of course and i have yet to try 1 Market but that’s for another day perhaps.
i find it weird when people decides to block you from their social media account, like they have something to hide.
Honestly, i couldn’t care much. I’m a little too old to play these stupid games. Not like your pictures were drool-worthy in the first place and i wouldn’t have noticed if a someone hadn’t pointed it out.
Stuff i post on my social media are mostly very insignificant. Anything too private would not even be on my FB and Instagram and one thing for sure, you’ll never catch me airing dirty laundry about my family and relationships. Neither will you see me professing undying love for my husband on FB cos i find it unnecessary. Nobody else needs to know nor measure the love we have for each other except ourselves and we prefer to keep it behind closed doors: 🙂
Ok not off to Penang, Malaysia per se but yesterday, after jamming, the mother-in-law told us she wanna drop by our place to lepak2 while my father-in-law go do some errands and i asked if she has any cravings and she mentioned Laksa Penang.
I love Laksa Penang! Not a fan of the Laksa Johor though.
In fact, i’m not a fan of most dishes that has santan in it.
So i googled for a Laksa Penang Recipe and found a reliable one.
Now, i love Laksa Penang but nak buat Laksa Penang, walaupun senang tapi part nak kopek ikan and hancur2 kan punya lah leceh.
2012 has been relatively good.
we got our kitchen done and put in all the finishing touch to the home.
although i do think a few more trips to IKEA would be awesome in 2013. hehe
We also had our 1st Iftar and Aidilfitri together in 2012.
We went to Bali for our 1st year Anniversary. That was our first trip, just husband & wife.
I was expecting us to squabble the entire trip. But it was surprisingly calm. Even though i had food poisoning, the husband handled me well. I’m not exactly pleasant to be with when i’m sick. heehee
Pagi-pagi Ahad, mother aku call cakap card aku masuk Berita Minggu. She wasn’t expecting it cos she didn’t know about the interview so it was such a nice feeling to wake up to her very surprised & proud voice. lol
On a vendor point of view, trust me when i say we can instantly pick up bridezilla vibes from working with so many brides. Dia ada macam satu jenis nya aura tau, even though kalau berbual kat FB je. Betul, tak tipu.
So, dear btbs, i know you’re excited about your wedding. But vendors do not lurk on their FB page every hour to check on your PM enquiries. If they do, maknanya either dorang takde kerja lain, pasal takde business ataupun dorang kaya sangat, so dia upah orang untuk jaga FB page dia every hour. The latter is quite unlikely though.
So if they do not reply your FB enquiries within 12 hours, it’s ok. Give them at least 24 hours before you try another way of contacting them. eg; email or calling. If it was that urgent, you would have just called them on the spot kan? If you FB message a vendor at 2.00am, please do not expect them to reply by 8.00am pls. Not everybody have the same sleeping pattern as you.
yes, hello!
it has been a while, no?
I’ve been so busy these days i could barely gather enough thoughts for a proper blog post.
and to be really honest, i’ve got really short-term memory these days. Like really short-term.
Just the other day, while showering, i thought of a genius business plan (or so i thought), but i knew it had something to do with The Card Maison. Anyway, during the entire shower session, all i could think about was that plan and told myself i’m gonna google about some stuff relating to it once i’m out of the shower. Once i’m out of the bathroom, dried my hair and stuff, switched on my laptop, eh, i forgot about the entire thing lah. Macam budak selenger duduk depan laptop trying to remember what i was supposed to google about. Guess what? i still can’t it remember till today.
It was our first Raya as husband & wife. Lotsa unexpected, happy things happened on the 1st day of Syawal. Alhamdulillah, all our prayers were answered. It was also chaotic cos we had to time our raya visiting properly, now that we have two sides to go to.
We’ve never practiced Raya Visiting with each other families when we were still engaged / gf-bf stage cos we found it a lil unnecessary, so it was quite nice to be able to meet his cousins etc.
