the grand 25th


part 2 of the birthday post! was pleasantly surprised when i got on the bus to join my sis after school. there was this HUGE bag on a leg and when she passed it to me, this was all i could see...


then during the 35 minutes journey, i slowly unwrapped the gifts and they were all things i like! more on the pressies later.

we took the bus all the way to raffles city, where we ate and splurged!


wonderful takopachi from the basement. thank god there was no queue.


while waiting for my gong cha. it was really a humongous bag which i was alternatively carrying and lugging around.

a side note: i will never drink gong cha at raffles city again! i ordered lemon juice with aiyu jelly and white pearls and there was no lemon juice at all! after telling the staff, they made a new one for me and it was exactly the same. just sugar syrup and toppings. after that i got so pissed off i just threw it away!


a pressie (bag charm) i got for myself at accessorize with a really cute necklace which i hope to wear soon and take a picture of.


this was part of the present from my sis--a hand knitted shawl from her! love the intricate details. thanks cheeks!

we met our parents for dinner at watami. can never get over how huge the servings are and that their set meal for two is almost good enough for four!


watami salad. enjoyed how the tuna added texture to the salad.



black pepper beef with rice in hot pot. a pseudo seoul garden self-cooking concept.


unagi roll which i didn't eat at all.


salmon nabe.



my personal favourite! you should try these beef cubes! totally succulent!


tori karage, wasn't as good as i remembered.


last but not least, another cake! a apple cheesecake from cedele. can't get enough of their cakes, they always taste so good.


moving on to the good stuff...



say hello to the new addition to my menagerie. i've been eyeing the white stuff toy for very long and my sis got it for me.


from matthew: a water gun which holds up to 1.1 litre of water and can shoot up to 12m. a very handy anti-bird weapon! from sis: bruno mars cd, his music rocks! and utensils from my friends.


i bought an aviator for myself at raffles city! have been wanting to get a good pair for very long and this pair really suits my face shape.

just today, i received yet another present from my colleagues that i went batam with!


i love the microphone pen so much i brought it with me to class haha! the students love it too.




after much help from mai, i finally got the box assembled and now my chops are so neat! yes, you can tell i'm a stamp fanatic :)

that's all for this year's birthday! i thoroughly enjoyed myself!
