Lunch @ Out of the Pan

Meet up Serene for lunch over last weekend. Plan to makan at Strictly Pancakes but their business is so damn good that it's full house. And their operating hours are kind of weird. Kitchen close at 330pm and open at 6pm on both weekends.

So somehow we didn't manage to taste any pancakes but crepes instead!

Serene order Korean BBQ chicken wrap with whole wheat crepe

Mine is Smoked Ham wrap with sundried tomato!

Order the Lychee Milkshake! Sooo nice. A balance blend of sweetness!

Best Macaroon Shop: Canele

6 Macaroons for $11.50

Though Im a little disappointed that i can get to eat Strictly Pancakes' pancakes but im looking forward to this Thursday dating with my Bf. Cos I've already made a reservation for us this Thursday after my drum lesson!
Yeah!!

Beauty Loots!

It's pretty common for a girl to feel vain... so recently I'm back to my detox program.
It has been quite awhile since i last took this Kinohimistu J'pan D'tox Juice. Which I've tried before and it's really good!

Don't know if i really slim down when im on this detox juice but i feel so much lighter... Hmmm
Currently Watson is having promotion for this detox juice. Usual price is @$39.90 but now it's @$27.90!
$12 of saving!!! Haha.
Not to sure when will the promotion end, but i will purchase my 2nd box soon after my 1st or 2nd bottle takes effect. =)

I've also purchase Love More Mask. Which i read from Xiaxue's blog, that their mask are actually quite good. Love their packing too!
Haven really try it yet.. Hmm, will it while i watch "The Red Riding Hood" on my lappy later!

This mask that i purchase is the normal face mask.. I'm quite tempted to purchase their 3D mask where there is ear hook for you to loop thru your ear when you place the face sheet mask! Interesting ya?

What are words...

When i hear this song... was really touched by the words.

And this singer sang it beautifully because of how he felt for his gf who is suffering from brain damage in a car accident..



Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see
How every single promise I keep
Cuz what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most

What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone

And I know an angel was sent just for me
And I know I'm meant to be where I am
And I'm gonna be
Standing right beside her tonight
And I'm gonna be by your side
I would never leave when she needs me most

What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone

Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
And I'm gonna be here forever more
Every single promise I keep
Cuz what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most

I'm forever keeping my angel close

Ice Cream Craze...

U.d.d.e.r.s Ice Cream!!!!

Danbo also want to have a taste of my ice cream

Yup! A Singapore born and bed. All their ice cream are made locally using their special recipe.

I tried my all time favorite, Rum and Raisin. Unlike other ice creamery that i've tried.

Udders really brought out the rum taste! Shiok!!

I'm definitely going back to try their other flavors!! 

By my friends' strong recommendation.. my next visit...

Im going to try Mao Shan Wang Ice Cream & Hazel's Nut with Bailey shot topping!

Desktop Wallpaper - Nice Calendar

It's has been a while since I've been searching really cool wallpaper as calendar.
But at times, the search can be quite frustrating.. as you usually will find really awesome wallpaper but it doesn't come with a calendar. Unless you use photoshop to add one.

Well if you're a lazy person like me, who really don't fancy using photoshop.. this website is a must for you to visit.

Nice Calendar

And I just downloaded 2 calendar. One for my lappy and another for my desktop @ office..

{Live. Love. Laugh}

Suddenly I've an urged to scrap... fingers are all itching to scrap..
So i quickly printed out my photos and start to mentally sketch my layout....
Used about 5 mins to match my pattern papers and start building up my layout.

{Live.Love.Laugh} 

I didn't used any title for this layout.. as i used a pattern paper with alots of words.. So using the journal card's subtitle as my main layout title. And what i love best is... the quotes.

" The best speaking is holding someone in silence." 

Just nice for my photo!

Yeah! My next layout will be on my mini danbo!

Our little visit to Singapore Botanic Garden!

We made an impromptu visit to Singapore Botanic Garden for some photograph taking after my bf finish his teaching...

Though weather is slightly warm and humid but we still enjoy ourself.. especially having some little fun around the Swan Lake..

If Singapore's weather isn't that humid and warm, i believe everyone of us will have great time chilling at the park...

Im WOW!!

I came across this sisters name, Jayesslee on CLEO magazine.. and out of curiously I went to youtube and search for their video...

Im awed by their voice. Really beautiful! I've been listening to this song on repeat! They really have good voice and here's the video to share...

All I hear is raindrops falling on the rooftop 
Ooh baby tell me why'd you have to go? 
'Cause this pain I feel it won't go away 
And today I'm officially missing you 
I thought that from this heartache I could escape 
But I fronted long enough to know 
There ain't no way and today 
I'm officially missing you 

Ooo can't nobody do it like you 
Said every little thing you do 
Hey baby say it, stays on my mind 
And I, I'm officially 
All I do is lay around, two ears full of tears 
From looking at your face on the wall,face on the wall 
Just a week ago you were my baby 
Now I don't even know you at all, I don't know you at all 

Well I wish that you could call me right now 
So that I could get through to you some how 
But I guess it's safe to say baby, safe to say 

[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/officially-missing-you-lyrics-tamia.html ]

That I'm, I'm officially missing you 

Ooo can't nobody do it like you 
Said every little thing you do 
Hey baby say it, stays on my mind 
And I, I'm officially 

Well I thought I could just get over you baby 
But I see that's something I just can't do 
From the way you would hold me 
To the sweet things you told me 
I just can't find a way to let go off you 
Ooo can't nobody do it like you 
Said every little thing you do 
Hey baby say it, stays on my mind 
And I, I'm offi ially 
It's official 
You know that I'm missing you 
Oh yea yes, all I hear is raindrops 
Ooh yea 
And I'm officially missing you

A photo a day project..

More of danbo...

I'm still looking to purchase the bigger size danbo... Cos somehow both my bf and I like to think they both danbo and mini danbo are quite resemblance in us. Especially the height and the "stone" expression.

Though it may be quite costly to purchase these so called collector's item but to think again, im sure it will be cost effective. Because I would want to use these danbos as my wedding photo theme. Hehehehe

I got inspired when i see one of the couple's pre wedding photos on a photographer's website.

Wedding Ideas..

Wedding is probably most of the girls will dream about when they are young.

And every girl wants to have the own perfect wedding....

As for me.. I like my wedding to be a small and cozy affair. Maybe a dinner buffet for ard 60-80 guests, al fresco dining, great music and most importantly... the gathering of beloved family members and close friends.. 

Wedding Invitation Card

Wedding Cake Topper

Bohemian style of wedding gown 

Design of reception tables

Hand bouquet

Nice venue

I like bubbles and sparklers!

Dining under the stars..

Wondering when is my turn to plan my perfect wedding? Well.. it's soon!
Somehow when we met each other, I just know that he's the one for me and vice versa for him.
Guess fate works in a funny way... especially when we recap on our memories of the past...


Hmmm.... let's just say that im hopping to have a summer / autumn wedding next year!

Scrapbook Layout!

Printed these 2 photos quite a while ago but somehow i just couldn't sketch a suitable layout for these 2 photos.

So while been home alone and bf is teaching.. i multi tasked! I source for scrapbook ideas thru my archive of scrap booking photos that i like the scrapbook designer's style and design. And a very lazy scrapper, I scrap lift.. So while watching my TVB drama Relic Of An Emissary, I used the washi tapes to create a string of banner and slowly build up my layout...

Synopsis:
The story begins with the sons of the Hung-mo Emperor returning to the capital city as a show of filial piety to their father, who has fallen extremely ill. Secretly, the princes are harboring intentions to succeed the throne. As a result, chaos surrounds the kingdom, and a chain of conspiracies and schemes begin occurring in the city…

While pursuing a mission, Gamyi Wai agent Ngo Siu-fung loses his memory in an accident. As he begins to slowly piece back memories of his past, he realizes that he was once a vicious, unreasonable, and merciless Gamyi Wai commander. He decides to start anew and change his ways of style, but his colleagues are unable to see past Siu-fung’s history of cruelty, and they continue to treat him unfairly. Fortunately for Siu-fung, he saves Chu Wan-man, grandson of the emperor, who has dressed himself in plain clothes to observe the commoners of the city. The two become good friends and Wan-man appoints Siu-fung as his personal bodyguard.

The emperor dies, his posthumous edict robbed, and the kingdom is left with no heir. The princes all desire the throne, leaving the kingdom unprotected from future attacks. Impatient, Wan-man orders Siu-fung to find the edict as soon as possible to stabilize the chaotic situation. The powerful and intelligent fourth prince Chu Dai, titled the Prince of Yin, also sends his most trusted adviser Ma Sam-bo to investigate the case. Fighting to retrieve the edict, Siu-fung and Sam-bo undergo a battle of wits and skill. They start an ambiguous friendship – though they see each other as equals, they are unable to work together because their loyalties lie elsewhere.

The edict is retrieved and Wan-man ascends to the throne, crowned as the Kin-man Emperor. Soon after his coronation, mysterious cases begin to occur around the kingdom. Someone with an ulterior motive is intentionally framing Dai of starting a coup. Though Dai is later proven to be innocent, Wan-man becomes really cautious of him. Aware that the new emperor has intentions in killing him, Dai raises an army to overthrow him. Under the slogan of “clearing the court and pacifying national disaster” (清君側、靖國難), Dai starts a coup d’état, that is later known to be called the Jingnan campaign.

And there is the layout:

Simple Pleasure in life's tiniest thing...

 I like this photo that we took at Changi Villiage... unlike other couples where they are on dates, they always either go out for coffee, lunch, dinner or movies. For us, we love to visit places like beach, parks or any places where we could just enjoy the nature view, snaps some photos and drink coffee...

 

Some ideas on Home Design...

 It's always been a biggest wish to be able to design my own house.

Though I don't have a house yet.. but i believe soon I will own my lovely nest with my love one.
But first i have to work and work super hard because housing in Singapore is quite expensive even though our minister claims that it's affordable. Don't forget the fact that you have to be debt ridden for 30 years!

Assuming that i purchase a flat at the age of 29 years old, pay off the flat for 30 years together with my love one.. By that i would be 59 years old. How to save more $$ for my old age? Haiz....

Anyway I would be glad if i can manage to ballot for a flat of my choice on my first balloting. Which i highly doubt. Anyway there is a new exercise coming up on new BTO on Pasir Ris. Hopefully we can somehow get a close number for balloting.
