2011-10-29T23:28:00.001+08:00

Happy 100th Days with Him

2011-08-21T20:21:00.003+08:00

*Happy 100th Day Anniversary*

Here we are stepping into 100th days of our lives together. Earlier this week, I pre-ordered his all-time favorite chocolate cake but from Lana Cakes. However, my surprise couldn't outwit from his the 2 out of 3 gifts apart from my actual 1 birthday present which is incoming next weekend. Theoretically, there's still a 3 out of 3 gifts and the actual 1 birthday gift that he'll be giving me. Confusing ideas he got there. Anyways, I am feeling so loved and spoiled by him.

Surprise Bundle of Gifts from Tooties

2011-08-20T23:15:00.003+08:00

*A Bagfuls of Love from Tooties*

I have come to my senses that I've been an emoed-bitch towards my beloved Tooties. I apologized and seeked for their forgiveness. The good times and the bad times, the ups and downs of our lives together as Best Friends. Thank you so very much for the presents and their big hearts of accepting me as who I am, I love you both besties - ShiYing & MeiJun, for life.

Kidnapped & Surpirsed for the Second Time by Him

2011-08-16T23:08:00.006+08:00

*The 1 out of 3 Surprise before the Actual 1*

Deadline is tomorrow for Introduction to Organizational Behaviour. My draft is up for editing and it's only 40% done. I am left with less than 12 hours to complete the rest of the drafting. This is a bad schooling habit of mine to do the 'last minute rush' and feeling the pressure. I love and hate myself for that but I can't help it, it's in me and part of me already. This time round its weightage is 35%. The stress level went up all the way to my forehead and it's showing - pimples popping.

Then, at 8pm sharp, someone special in my life came knocking on my door and kidnapped me for the second time. He caught me off-guard. An unexpected visit to pass me my 1 out of 3 surprise before my actual 1 birthday present that he'll be giving me. It got me all pumped up, so motivated and ready to burn the midnight oil to get my essay report done right on time.

UniSIM RMIT 1.5yrs Degree & Happy 2nd Month Anniversary

2011-07-15T21:10:00.000+08:00

*Scraplicious Singapore - Parkway Parade*

Another new chapter of my life begins - it's back to school, and life as a student once again sucks big time. I'm struggling and I'm trying my best here not to disappoint my Father. Sometimes, I really doubt my decision - is RMIT Marketing the course I wanted to do for my Degree? Should I change to other courses instead? Maybe, working life suits me better? Well, it doesn't really matter now because I've signed up for it myself, I've been through far worst off these past years. So, suck it up, Denise! Work hard!! You've got no more time to waste, age is catching up on'ya!!!

I've been a little emotional earlier this week but it's all good when I get to see him, hear his heartbeat when I hug him, looking into his eyes and he smiled my favorite smile, he never fails to cheer me up with his crappy jokes and I always laugh my hearts out when he tries to be funny. All he wants me is to be happy and here we are together, just the two of us, into our second month mark. Happy 2nd Month Anniversary, to the love of my life {2gether!}.

Our First Weekend Getaway - Bintan Lagoon

2011-07-10T23:26:00.000+08:00

*Bintan Lagoon Beach Resort*

He dotes me too much and I'm so spoilt by him now. He wants me to be happy and enjoy a trip out of Singapore before my School starts. Although it's a very last minute request but he made it happen. He said, "We'll go very near to near, then, go far to very far for our thousands trip together, just the two of us.". He's a man that I can trust and also the next important person in my life besides Daddy On.

Out of the Shit-Hole for ShiYing

2011-07-04T23:26:00.001+08:00

*Wild Honey - Mandarin Gallery*

I had a late Monday brunch with ShiYing that drives the blues away and it's a damned awesome one with a chit-chatting session to top it off. I'm a sucker for brunches with anything that has fluffy buttered-creamed-jammed toasts and not forgetting about eggs - scrambled, sunny side up, omelette, ... ... Let's talk about the seductive calling of ozzying-out eggs benedicts, how can anyone resist it?! If you are, don't be, because you've no idea what you've been missing out in life, like seriously, screw the cholesterol level and calories intake!!!

The Queen's B'day Celebration at MBS Suite

2011-07-01T23:11:00.000+08:00

*MBS Chairman's Suite for Queen's Birthday*

All girls' Birthday party gathering, drunk and trash talking. What more can I say?! Gonna love'em, Happy Birthday Glenda and we all had a good good night out of the club'yo!!!

Monday Blues Begone, My Love.

2011-06-20T19:49:00.006+08:00

*Kallang Leisure Park*

It's the start of a new week and I used to suffer from Monday Blues when I'm working, but now, I'm enjoying my slacking lazy holidays before my School starts on 11th July. My Eldest Sister took a random day-off and brought her daughter, Elizabeth, for an ice-skating session. She needs a coach to teach her how to ice-skate and here I am, all free and available, so ready to torture her with my military style of trainings.

On the way and by the way, I bought a tea-break cake for him and I waited for an hour at the Little India Mrt Station Exit C.
At first, I sent a message to notify him that I've reached. Then awhile later, I called once but he didn't pick up. After 30 minutes, I got a little concerned and I was planning go somewhere nearby where he can meet me after working hours, but the box of cake will be a burden because he will be heading off to ORQ for a Gym Session with his Buddies.
I didn't get pissed with the hot and humid weather, I didn't get angry for his lateness and I didn't walk away or heading off home with an attitude. He felt guilty about it and I felt bad about it. Damned, so damned.

Best Buddy - Leslie Lim

2011-06-19T18:31:00.006+08:00

*Best Buddies Brunch - Evans Rd/Dempsey*

An awesome Sunday brunch with my Best Buddy, Leslie. Our last meet-up was about 2 months ago at Bedok Point. This funny dude is my first friend I've made in Hai Sing Catholic High, Year 2005, I sat the next to him in another row and our first conversation was about braces - our ugly teethes and gums. Then after, he's been around backing me up regardless of anything and everything.

Match-maker ShiYing claims Red Pig Dinner Treat

2011-06-17T18:33:00.008+08:00

*Amoy Streets/Ann Siang Streets*

Match-maker ShiYing claims her Red Pig dinner treat after our first one month mark. It's really amazing how fate brought us all together, all thanks to Miss Chong Shi Ying.

ShiYing's Actual Day Celebration Merged with MaoFamily

2011-06-15T23:17:00.004+08:00

*Tanjong Pagar/Amoy Street*

Tooties are all feeling lousy, restless and souless but when all of us were out together, it's all about the random craziness, full of crap talks and fun!!!

Our First Month Anniversary

2011-06-14T23:56:00.006+08:00

*swatch watch - Happy One Month*

Candle-Light dinner was lovely and we exchanged gifts. Every hour, every minute and every second, we spent together are so precious.

On our first date, my mentality was to make a new hi-bye friend introduced by ShiYing on a fine random Saturday in April and his mentality was just to give this girl a try, otherwise, he'll only gain himself a new hi-bye friend. Unexpectedly, we clicked and something unexplainable invisible particles in the air sparked between us.

Then, on 14th May, our third date, he seized that chance and grab hold of my hand and I gave him my heart. What makes both of us as a whole, we've got no idea at all.

Tooties Celebrates ShiYing's Evening Poolside Picnic

2011-06-12T02:14:00.002+08:00

*Dunman View - Poolside Evening Picnic*

Rain, rain, go away, come again another day...
It's ShiYing's Birthday and Tooties want to celebrate...

Change of venue from Singapore Bontanical Gardens to Dunman View. We did last minute groceries shopping at Parkway Parade. Jun and I tried our best to cheer our Birthday girl up because she had a bad week. Tooties' love made her day and I cooked instant noodles as supper for them. Thank you for making a trip to the East for the celebration because they lived in the West, just the midnight charges itself for taxis are way too freaking expensive!

Happy Birthday ShiYing, Tooties love you and we'll be Best Friends Forever till our Death beds.

xoxo,
BaO (aka, Ah Toot)

The Happiest TGIF - Official No Income Day

2011-06-03T23:37:00.007+08:00

*Changi Business Park - LAS (HR)*

It's my last day with LAS, mixed feelings. I am so definitely going to miss my lady bosses - Helen & Clara and the brand new HR team/friends that I've made.

After clocking-out of the office for the very last time, it's TGIF with him. My so-called 'surprise movie night' failed because we're so much alike and sometimes, in fact, it's all the time, we think so much likewise, thus we're so predictable of each other. After the movie, we walked till the break of dawn at Clarke Quay. We made no empty promises and we're going to work hard together for the both us. I am willingly to wait for him. He leads, I will follow. Just because and so it happens.

Closer - Blood Rush

2011-05-31T23:58:00.000+08:00

*Blood Rush - Nose Bleed*

I have to say that I am an unwritten white clean piece of paper. He needs to fill me in and I will take awhile to get use to some things which are always 'first' to me. Blood rush as it's so electrifying. I might just be heaty, no worries.

Plan Not Thought Through

2011-05-29T22:56:00.002+08:00

*VeganBurg - Eunos*

I didn't plan the day well enough, I only thought of torturing him with a Vegan lunch at VeganBurg located at Eunos. Then, after that, no plans at all. We hopped onto a random bus and walked our day through from Bugis to RafflesCity. Recently, both of us had an increased knowledge of the "Singapore's History" through our dates at The Flyer, The Marina Barrage and The National Library. For dinner, he requested for Bak Kut Teh at Katong which opens 24 hours (closes on Monday), his wish is my command.

CCHB Friends Forever - May B'day Babies

2011-05-28T20:54:00.002+08:00

*Timbre - The Substation*

It's been awhile since we last met on CNY Mahjong Session at Peiru's house. This time round, we had good food, good companies, good ambience. Good friends are hard to find. CCHB Friends Forever.

A Sunny Sunday at Marina Barrage

2011-05-22T22:23:00.008+08:00

*Singapore's Marina Barrage*

As usual, the "Impromptu Tofu Couple", started the Sunday with a brunch at Hatch. I like the food there, so he promised to bring me back for more brunches to come and making sure that a reservation to be done beforehand. Then, we head off to the Marina Barrage and I melted immediately. I swear that I hated the blazing sun to the core of the earth. After an hour, we decided to go back to town for air-conditioned places. I love walking aimlessly with him because there's always hugs & kisses, which I'm getting used to it. Ending off the weekend, we had dinner at Mandarin Gallery's Ippudo.

Solo-Denise is gone but Old-Denise Still Stays

2011-05-21T17:55:00.000+08:00

*White Cream Seafood Linguine*

My Saturday date doesn't change because I loved ShiYing the match-maker dearly, the 'Solo-Denise' maybe gone but not the same 'Old-Denise'. Intial plan was to go ECP for roller-blading after lunch but the weather got us lazy and we decided to rot in my room with air-conditioning. Girls' chit-chatting session is the best thing ever to pass time real fast.

Each Day Just Keeps Getting Better

2011-05-20T23:53:00.001+08:00

*The Tofu Couple*

I have never been in love before so I have no idea how much I've fallen for him but right now we're so superglued to each other. We've only been together for a week but it feels like we've known each other for a lifetime already. This is crazy, I can't believe it myself either. Love is indeed a powerful thing that it changes a person. Je T'Aime.

Just Couldn't Wait Another Day

2011-05-18T20:30:00.007+08:00

*hei chocolate ice-cream - Awfully Chocolate*

My bad habit of the 30 minute morning rush, I left my mobile on my bed and being uncontactable for the day kills me. Usually in the past, I don't give a damn whether anyone is looking for me or whatsoever. However, things have changed now. There's a person there who might send me messages or might even randomly calls me but I couldn't get to answer to any of it. I'm worried and anxious. I rushed to the office to get an access to the internet and send him a Facebook message telling him that I'll be uncontactable for the day. We didn't get to see each other for the past 2 days, he just couldn't wait any longer till tomorrow. Sent me a surprise message while I'm having dinner at home, kidnapped me for another 2 hours and went to have his favourite chocolate ice-cream at Katong's JOO JOO.

He Found Me - My Another Halved

2011-05-14T16:30:00.004+08:00

*The Singapore Flyer*

I have begin a new chapter of my life, I am not alone anymore. He found me, held my hand and I gave him my heart. My first and my last. We went to the Singapore Flyer for our third date and I am a blessed girl to have him by my side now.

He is the One.

2011-05-05T11:50:00.004+08:00

P.S. Cafe - Dempsey*

Today, I have finally decided and I'll be waiting for him to initiate.

Tooties - Girls Day Out

2011-04-30T21:39:00.000+08:00

*California Pizza - The Forum*

Breaking free from being sick for 4 days bed-ridden and 2 jabs up my butt with blue-black still. My Besties love are driving my bad days away!

Brighten my Depressed Sunday

2011-04-24T23:14:00.000+08:00

*Doong Ji - Katong*

Thank you so much, Bel because you made me feel so much better. Not forgetting we're just 5 - 7 minutes walk away from each other. We fed ourselves with a sumptous Korean Cuisine at Katong. She brightens my depressed Sunday away. Tomorrow will be a better day, even if it's not good, you must live like it's a good one! Besties love to Belinda, ShiYing and MeiJun.

An Unlucky Day - A Car Accident at Rocher Road

2011-04-23T23:40:00.004+08:00

*The Rose Veranda - Shangri-la hotel*

The whole accident happened along the up-slope of Rocher Road, exit Suntec City towards Victoria Street. It's a heavy traffic in the hot Saturday afternoon 4pm, it was my mistake as I didn't saw it coming and I couldn't brake in time when the Black Honda Civic 1.8 stops in front of me. Everything happened so suddenly. I'm traumatised and I will never again drive in my life. I have learnt my lesson and I'm really sorry that I have disappoint my Father. I'm going through the insurance claims and compensating the other party now. If there's any further fines or detaining my driving licence or whatever punishment there are, I am willing to face it because I deserve it for being careless.

It's MeiJun's Happy 23rd Birthday Celebration at Shangri-la Hotel, Boho-themed High-tea Session, both Shiying and MeiJun companied me to the Police Station to make a report. I didn't mean to ruin Tooties's day out. My sincere apologies to both of them.

A Hangover Day After VIP Party Access

2011-04-22T06:06:00.003+08:00

*vitaminwater - ignite*

It's a Good Friday and was up all night partying the day before at Butter Factory VIP Area & Fliter Members Club. My sixth clubbing experience, second time drunk and first hangover. I've been a good girl and retire for the night early. My killer heels just killed my legs and I'm totally in need for a foot massage. Made an appointment to visit ShiYing's Mother for my fortune foretold and it's very interesting to know what's in for your life. So, right now, I'm kind of looking forward to my future that beholds me.

ONs Sweet Addiction

2011-04-20T22:01:00.003+08:00

*sticky - The Central*

This is the 'ONs Sweet Addiction' - Passionfruit, Strawberry, Mango Pudding & Mangosteen. Just happen to pop by the area, actually, I'm suppose to attend my 7:45pm Hot Hatha at H.om Yoga. Ended up, I'm gaining a lot more calories to my body instead of burning them away.

Shopping Queen Unleashed

2011-04-17T12:30:00.004+08:00

*Shopping Sprees of April*

Once again, the Shopping Queen is on the loose because Daddy On is out of town! No watchful eyes on my spending power, I am being unleashed!! Not!!! I think I had enough for this month, so looking forward to May as we're going to celebrate birthdays of Peiru & Desmond at MBS and I think I'm going to spend a bomb.

We the Unpredictably Lived

2011-04-16T23:49:00.002+08:00

*IPPUDO SG @ Mandarin Gallery*

It's set and confirmed for good. I will officially announced that my Saturday Date Love is ShiYing Chong. We've been making an effort to meet up almost every weekend and our chit-chatting sessions just couldn't get any better. These days, we're always on the 'last minute' kind of situations and making 'last minute' decisions. That's how life should be, we're the unpredictably-lived. We only lived this once, when time passes us by, there's no replay but to hit the play button and move on. The thought of ageing kills me.

Chanel Coco Rouge Shine No.57 Aventure

2011-04-09T23:11:00.001+08:00

*Coco Rouge Shine - No.57 Aventure*

I'm loving my lipstick and I've still got the urge to buy another one that gives me a red hot kissable lips from the classic range. I shall think about it and decide whether to buy or not. The Chanel showcase for their new range of the season located at Rafflescity ends on this coming Thursday. The photo-booth is one amusing thing which wants me to go back there again to have some little snap-shot fun!

Fearless, The ONs Family VS Starhub

2011-04-05T22:48:00.006+08:00

*Fat Boy's Burger Bar - Katong*

Starhub has picked the wrong family to mess around! They pissed not one 'On' but four 'On's off. They're asking us to pay a bill which is more than 10 years way overdue for the premise of Hillview Crescent.

Starhub, you are amazing! I kudos to you for stating 'reversal write-off' on the latest printed bill that they've provided us with.
In accounting terminology, a write off is a bad debt that is declared noncollectable for which a return on the investment is now impossible or unlikely. And what the fuck is a 'reversal write-off'?!

We questioned Starhub back, they can't explain themselves clearly how this amount came about, there's no way they can churn out the break-down of bills accumulating this amount and how the fuck do you expect us to pay for this ridiculous bill which we doubt it don't even exist?!

Double thumbs up for your Billing Department and Customer Service. Brace yourself people because we'll be seeing bloodshed and flipping of tables at Starhub till the On's win!!!

This is me, a new Denise.

2011-03-26T13:32:00.005+08:00

*CBP - The Signature*

I've realised that I'm kind of useless, or maybe a better word - nuisance, to my family. Now, I'm trying to survive through my temping, then I'll try hard to complete my Degree course and what's next? If I could, I would love to get out of this country, even if it's a year or two. Yes, Singapore is just too small. I'm getting bored of this systematic life. Nothing but study and get a certificate, hard at work and rest at home. Tell me if this is not boring?!

A Lone but Never Lonely

2011-03-20T22:38:00.004+08:00

*hmv - 313 Somerset*

I heavily-brunched at 313's Go! Go! Curry with Jun. Then, high-teaed at ION Orchard's Mamarlade Pantry with Ying and D.I.Y/home shopping at PlazaSing's Spotlight and DAISO by myself. I may be alone but I am never lonely.

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun - Vice Convent

*Vice Convent - Fliter*

There are three Tooties on a Saturday afternoon. One retire for the night after watching Red Riding Hood. Two left for last minute clubbing notice at Fliter. Three O'clock in the morning, we slacked at Robertson Quay and got picked-up by random Losers but failed.

Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman.

2011-03-13T23:07:00.003+08:00

*Esplanade to Marina Bay Sands*

Mei Jun, Shiying and Denise have been together since Primary Five, at the age of 11 years old. Somehow, maybe fate or destiny, our paths crossroad with each others and brought us together. This 12 years of friendship will still go on till our deathbeds as Best Friends.

SALS Wars - IT Fair 2011

*The BodyShop Sales 2011*

There's nothing in the world that a true shopaholic will be is at 'Sales Wars'. Just look at all the loots I've got for myself that can last me for another year, at least.

*The Sandwich Shop*

This week, I've been spending up to 2 hours of my pay's money on lunch! The soup of the day for my favourite picks of the week are Wholesome Country Pumpkin and Smoked Salmon. On the mains, topping my list of must-eats are Potato Bacon salad, Roast Duck Breast sandwich and Wasabi Salmon wrap!

*Ray - COACH Poppy-Chans*

I am clearing the clusters of 'things' in my room and found this lovely COACH Notebook from Ray Magazine. My new found friend, WeiShan, a LAS-Walking/Living MOM/Relo-Guide for Expats. She has a thing for Notebooks to scribble whatever and whenever she likes. So, I figure out that she could really make good use out of this freebie of mine. Another challenging week ahead and we will never give up!

Enjoying the Flavors of a Tai-Tai Life

*Louis Vuitton - ION Orchard*

That's how life should be... My "someone" is somewhere out there... I must seek him out get married and fulfil my destiny to be a "Tai-Tai"... Not! In my dream it is! Back to reality!

Okay, I need to stay focus and endure worklife till 17th June, Friday. I'm earning myself some cash for my upcoming 6 days 5 nights shopping spree trip to Bangkok, Thailand on 23rd June, Thursday. Then, it's time get serious and back to school for my RMIT Courses which I've enrolled earlier this year. Looking forward, really.

*Vaio-CR323 Motion Eye*

Chinese Lunar New Year... For me, it's all about slacking/rotting, watching complete episodes of Japanese/Korean Dramas, Mahjong/Poker Cards Games with my Sisters, Brother-in-laws and the Little ones. Have a Happy Chinese Lunar Rabit Year 2011 to everyone!

Reunion Dinner 2011

2011-02-01T18:39:00.004+08:00

*Dragon Phoenix - Liang Court*

Reunion dinner of the ON Family. The food is okay only, nothing amuses me so probably won't be back there again. I would prefer Steamboat Buffet or Tze Char if there's another reunion dinner.

Double Trouble for the BFFs - Shopping Queens

2011-01-27T16:22:00.003+08:00

*Domani - Takashimaya*

Bel is 'Seoul' excited to hear my South Korea holiday/adventure I had with ShiYing and passed her some goodies that I've brought back. After a catching up lunch, we did our usual routine - 'window shopping'. The previous time, we walked into Suntec City's Swarovski Crystal and bought a pair of necklaces together. This time round, it's even worst. Both of us have the same weakness for temptations on Branded Goods. Hence, we walked into IonOrchard's Louis Vuitton with the mentality of 'window shopping'. Ended up, we ordered/bought ourselves Monogram Essentials Personalised Neverfull PM - O.C.M & Speedy 35 - BEL.

We're so getting ourselves into 'double trouble' financially and we might need to reconsider the term for 'window shopping' from now onwards as we mentioned but still we just can't wait for our bags to arrive in March!

Happy New Year 2011 & Seoul, South Korea Trip

2011-01-24T19:13:00.004+08:00

*Fly to Seoul, South Korea*

Happy New Year! 2011!! Haeeee!!!

It's my first post for the new year and it's all good! Thanks ShiYing for having a high level of patience with me and we had a hella good time in Seoul, South Korea!

High! High!! I'm so High!!! We're so going to fly back there again next year in 2012, hopefully.

Happy belated birthday to my beloved Belinda (aka. SQII)!!! With an empty stomach, we filled ourselves with nothing but good food - the 'Tai-Tai Way'. Finally, we got our mouths on TWG's High-Tea Menu, it's sinful yet we don't give a damn watching our weight-gain. Next week, we've decided to go for a TCM treatment for a try-out and SQII totally needs a wardrobe revamp from CityPlaza blogshop wholesale shopping spree!

Ruby's Home Cooked Food is the Best

2010-12-16T23:21:00.000+08:00

*Filipino Specialty Dish - Sha-Sha Do*

One fine day, my maid, Ruby, randomly whopped'up her home-cooked specialty. It's a pan fried fish and shimmer down with beaten eggs, tomato, green chilies, diced garlics and sliced onions. At first glance, I pushed the dish away as it seriously don't look appetizing but living it up as a foodie, I will give it a try and I swear that I will never ever refrained from trying any home-cooked food of another culture in the future! Totally missing Ruby right now as she's on her way back home for a 2 weeks break in Philippines!

Seriously, I am an IT-Idiot. I've always been boycotting smart phones or those latest electronic gadgets. Here I am, contradicting myself for buying an iPhone4. I am forced - by the Digital Age. I am not moving forward and my life is not getting easy, technologically, if I don't try to be IT-Savvy.

Deepavali - A Random Family Day-Out

2010-11-05T23:06:00.004+08:00

*On the road at Orchard*

Officially, I'm on the road for a day. It's Deepavali and I'm kind of stress with the heavy traffic in town because of the PH's crowd. However, I managed to pull it off. Thanks to Daddy's patience and Edmund's on-the-road tests. For breakfast, we had an awesome Dim Sum feast at Grand Mercure Roxy and we did some Winter Holiday shopping at 313 Somerset. Daddy seems to be in a happy mode and he gave the green light to buy my dream car - Copen, Daihatsu. I am so looking forward to it!

*VeganBurg - Near Eunos MRT Station*

When there's new and good food around the East Area of Singapore, it's the calling of the Shopping Queens (aka. Tai-Tais In-making) to be there for food tasting. Also, we did our usual catching ups and downs. Two of us make One as a whole, that's what Best Friend meant to me.

After that, my Eldest Brother-in-law and I "amazing-raced" to the GrandStand Turn 3 to check out the Qualifying Sessions up-close. As Adam Lambert's performance starting anytime soon, we "amazing-raced" back to The Pandang to catch him in action.

Belated Birthday Celebration at Keppel Bay

2010-09-19T23:51:00.005+08:00

*Tooties at the Keppel Bay*

It's a belated birthday celebration for me. We took cab from the very moment we step out of our house. Firstly, I brought Ying to Aunty Alice's Salon at Roxy Square II to set our hair. Then, we walked to 328 Katong Laksa for lunch, Fatty Uncle knows what I want before I could even open my mouth to place my order as I'm their regular customer. After that, we reached Keppel Bay and it was a last minute decision to settle down at TCC. To our surprise, the lighter bites menu were awesome, especially the dipping sauces! Lastly, we moved on to Suntec City for shopping and dinner. We planned to end our day, walking to The Flyer to see the lovely night view, but every steps I take, my heels are killing me badly. You don't know how desperate I was to buy any pair of pumps when we're shopping at new look. Therefore, The Flyer was cancelled and we had a good chit-chatting session at the foodcourt instead.

Life is boring w/o Music

2010-08-11T23:58:00.004+08:00

*Ray-Ban Brown Aviator L.A.*

Unable to make up my mind these days, I changed my bag at the very last minute before I leave the house. When I board the bus, I then realised that I forgot the most important item in bag that I can't live without - MP3. I have to suffer the noise polllution for a 3 hours journey back and forth from Dakota to Admiralty MRT Stations. Life can be so boring without music.

Free & Easy

2010-08-06T17:30:00.002+08:00

*The Hand Burger - 313 Somerset*

It's been awhile, so let's just look back at what this jobless but not hopeless Ah Toot has been doing after returning from Bangkok, Thailand. These days, I've been a good girl. I travelled across the country for my practical driving lessons every morning at 1030am/1305pm and I've 10 or less lessons left before I could book for my practical test. I spent my afternoons/lunch with my Sisters. Then, I attend Hot Yoga, evening classes either twice or thrice a week. Also, date either one of my girlfriends - Jun, Ying or Bel, whenever they're free to meet up for movies/lunch/dinner/window-shopping for my case. I promise Daddy stop being picky about Job offers and I will start working again in September.

*Toots of Us - Bangkok, Thailand*

Toots of us on a shopping spree in Bangkok, Thailand. We shopped till we broke, feast till we bloat and walked till we drop dead in our hotel room. It's our first trip together, though there's some setbacks - we went through a slight drama roller-coaster ride but it's all good, no hard feelings, Jun is overwhelmed and I would've put myself into her flip-flop! We're on a vacation, so ain't no political-voting/bombing-scare is going to bring Toots down! Overall, we enjoyed ourselves, 70% right-on as planned, while 30% changed from itinerary due to time issue and money well-spent but it's still not enough!!! *Beware! We the Toots will be back!*

*PARCO Marina Bay - Nantsuttei*

Currently, I'm taking a break from working - jobless. First, I want to get back into shape, I am so going for a Hot Yoga trial session - Hot Hatha/Yang. Second, I'm looking forward to my shopping spree trip in Bangkok, Thailand, departing next Friday at 0715am. Third, I've got my mind cleared, so I decided to give it a try but I am not too sure if it's my calling - 7th August 2010, Saturday. Lastly, settled my driving licence, I should be on the road officially but I'm not, I just fully-booked myself 3 weeks worth of driving lessons, every weekday's morning 10:30am, I am so going to get it done and over with. This time round ain't no crappy instructor is going to bring me down!

Sam's Curry @ Dempsey Road

2010-07-04T16:45:00.005+08:00

*Dempsey Road - Sam's Curry*

My first authentic Indian lunch and the food there are awesome! Though it's quite salty and spicy for me but it's still bearable. When I was asked by the waiter what meat dishes do I want to go along with my Bryani, I didn't think twice and ask for beef, it's just like asking a Malay for pork. Immediately, I apologise and I'm embarrassed for my stupidity.

Bangkok, Thailand Shopping Spree with LMJ

2010-06-30T22:45:00.002+08:00

*Wholesale Market - Chinatown, Bangkok*

My head is thinking nothing but a long, long, long shopping list. It's my first free & easy solo trip without any adult supervision - Bangkok, Thailand. As I've been there so many times with Daddy, I'm so familiar with the food and shopping's whereabouts. My initial plan was to travel to a city of Europe/Australia to explore and enjoy. However, things don't seem to work out with Belinda's schedule. Never mind, it's okay. There's always next time, so we'll wait till NATAS 2011 Spring/Summer tour packages because I won't be doing the plannings anymore as it's just so tedious to crack my brain to plan the itineraries. I am so looking forward to my one month break!

*Bento Day at Dunman View - My Crib*

Finally, we fulfilled our long promised 'Bento Day' but it's not taken place outdoor because the scorching sun is a killer for both Ying and I. Hence, we decided to have it at my dining table, slacked all day long in my crib with air-conditioning, Youtube and K-Pops! It's a freaking hell'of a success Toots!!! Again & again & again & again... ...

Buffet once in a blue moon

2010-06-10T22:39:00.000+08:00

*Mercure Roxy: Feast at East*

Thanks to Vickie for telling us that there's Wagyu Beef and free flow of juices served, my Eldest Sister and I decided to make a trip down to Mercure Roxy for a buffet dinner. However, when we went in and scanned through the food, none of what Vickie has mentioned are there! I haven't been eating buffet ever since last year's F1 Korean BBQ dinner with Belinda. This time, I only managed to stuff 1 round of starters, 2 rounds of mains and 3 rounds of desserts. Ox tail, laksa, durian paste and bread pudding with chocolate sauce rocks!

Future Working Career

2010-06-05T05:23:00.006+08:00

*First Day with AAPC on 26th Feb'10*

In life, there's always choices, decision makings, taking chances and planning ahead for the future. Just like a child being questioned by his/her parents or teacher, "What is your ambition? What do you want to do in the future? Who do you want to be(Occupation)?" or anticipating a quiz in those magazines, answer each question and the points your scored, it'll lead you slowly to a/an final destination/answer. I used to know what I want in life but after she left, everything changed. I'm clueless and aimlessly live for the sake of living. From then, I always '走一步，数一步' and this is only meant for short-run purposes. Now, I was offered to a promising opportunity, I am thinking so hard now, it's driving me crazy...

Bruised by Polished Parquet Bedroom Floor

2010-05-19T22:11:00.004+08:00

*Worst Bruise Ever - Left Hip Bone*

Woke up by my alarm clock at 7am in the morning, sleepily walked towards it to hit the 'shut the hell up & let me sleep another 5 minutes more' button and fell hard like a fucked'up sleeping Buddha because my maid, Ruby, just polished my bedroom's parquet floor which is so unnecessary.

Fast Forward Month of May

2010-05-15T03:05:00.002+08:00

*The Twilight Saga: new moon*

The month of May...

Every Weekday is pretty much the same - wakes up, goes to work, end of work, home for dinner, watches tv, check emails, load & watches MBC's Dong Yi on Mon/Tue & KBS's Cinderella's Sister on Wed/Thurs, and sleep.

Every Friday to Weekend - sleep longer hours till 2pm/3pm, gets migraine, munches quick-brunch, takes 2 pills of paracetamol, goes back to sleep, wakes up at 6pm/7pm for dinner, watch tv, check emails/load online latest Movies, watch till Morning 3am/4am and sleep.

You may say "Denise got no life.".

Then, next question will be "Why no boyfriend? You're still young, you should go out have fun and enjoy life while you still have youth in your hands! Why live like an old hag?".

I can only reply, "I don't know. Stop asking because I just don't know, that's why don't know.".

The End.

*Clarke Quay/Boat Quay*

Happy Birthday to MJ, not Michael Jackson, not Marc Jacobs but Mei Jun! I was late for running errands, Ying got stucked in my room waiting probably bored to death and Jun kept giving both of us missed calls with messages stating we're extremely late! Then, Jun got the wrong Timbre - Arthousse, Ying and I arrived at the right Timbre - Substation and we kept cabbing till our hearts content! Finally, we settled down at Timbre - Arthouse and head off to The Mind Cafe till it closes at 2am. It's so nice to see Candy again and meet Carling, Javier & Rui Liang for the first time. Carling owes a semi-pro Canon latest EOS 550D and I am so going to buy it!
