New discovery @ Raffles City
Tried different foods at the basement of Raffles City this week. It's been some time since I have been there. Seems like there are a number of new restaurants sprouting there.
Squid Ink thin crust pizza highly recommended by a coll so we decided to drop by during lunch to try. It's really good! A definite must-try... But I must warn U the wait is rather long around 45 mins. So it's better to go there when U have the luxury of time...
American breakfast pizza complete with an egg on top of it. We ordered these 2 pizzas to share...
Sweet lil dessert from Mei Ling yesterday just when I needed something to perk me up. So many ppl juz enjoy incurring the wrath of me. I shall just write them off as PMS. Grrrrrr...
Met up with my poly frenz for dinner last nite. Ramen @ 大黑屋. I think this is so-so. Nothing out of extraordinary...
Me and Li Sze. She juz got ROM recently. Happily married but having in-laws problems alr. Haha marriage is scary...
Kok Hong and Kian Seng.
After dinner, I went for some drinks at Wala with Des and Kelv. Both of them juz finished their papers yesterday. Great chill-out last night, exactly what I needed after a long day of pissed-off incidents...

3 more weeks, Pighead!

Random chat
Was chatting with boss then she mentioned abt this coll whom I was quite close with during the 1st half of this year. As some of you might have known, my boss went away to NY for half a year on biz trip.
Hmmm felt so weird, I almost forgotten abt this person's existence alr. We used go home together on some days and sms off work, even during wkend. Boss used to tease that those "butterflies" will float down to look for me cos we are on diff floors. So some of the colls got the wrong idea and boss even thought we fell out cos he expressed interest and I rejected. Haha... No such thing and I'm not interested in an office r/s lah. All I can say is it's complicated and we didn't really talk anymore cos of some other issue...

Food Paradise
Didn't really feel like blogging but I figured I'd better do so before I become too lazy to upload the many pics of food which I had recently.
Tried the unique Xiao Long Baos @ Paradise Dynasty. They have 8 diff flavors - Original, Ginseng, Foie Gras, Black Truffle, Cheesy, Crab Roe, Garlic and Sze Chuan. It's really good I tell U. The taste just seems to explode in your mouth. It felt like paradise seriously...
Personally, I still like the original best. Boring me likes conventional stuffs :)
Sliced pork La Mian. This is not bad too. Only downside is the noodles is too soft, dun have the QQ feel to it.
I had ramen @ Parco Millenia again yest (left pic above). I learnt tat the shop name is Nantsuttei. Tried the right pic ramen @ Ippudo of Mandarin Gallery few months back while shopping with Dianna during my 3pm off. Good thing it was off-peak hours cos we ate around 5pm so there was no queue. Think these 2 are the best ramens I have tried so far. Soup base is delicious and their meats simply melt in your mouth...
Boss treated us to team lunch at this new noodle restaurant which is juz beneath our office.
The diff types of noodles... I think so-so only. Not worth the price U are paying for.
Some fried mushrooms in crispy Vietnamese nest cost $16 just like that!
This is nice. Short cakes with blueberry and coconut coating...
I like this as well. Avocado with walnut ice-cream and aloe vera. See see see I can really eat lor. So stop saying I'm thin cos I think my fats will be piling on soon! Scary... I need to workout more...

Ending off with a pic of the Christmas tree at our building. I like the feeling of festive season creeping close ;)

Relaxing Week
It's been a rather relaxing week with a mid-wk public holiday. Caught 2 movies this week.
Movie screening at our office - "Marley and Me". I noe I noe, I'm so fortunate to be working in this comp. Lunch time screening at our auditorium complete with Subway set lunch all packed nicely for us - F.O.C. Storyline is more or less expected when you have an animal in the show, esp a dog. From when U get it as a puppy to when it's going to die. As usual, touching when it is going to be put to sleep...
It's meetup with Daniel, Carisse and Yufen for dinner at night. Erm can't really name of the restaurant at Esplanade. It's right opposite Harry's. Think tat place is more suitable for drinks rather than food. The servings were mainly so small except for my Fish & Chips...
It was a great catch-up session where we talked about things close to our hearts. We should have more of such sessions, guy and gals!

Anyway, I have decided to set aside 1k from my AWS next mth to spend. Some ppl tot I'm setting aside that 1k to save. Lol... I'm saving the rest of course. Since I didn't see any big ticket item which I like, I shall juz spend it on clothes, shoes, Mango sale and anything. Oh yeah am thinking of perming my hair. Can't wait for Dec to come. It's the mth of giving and I have already finished wrapping the presents for my colls. All 10 of them...

Hair Band Craze
As you can see, I'm running out of ideas to blog these days. So I'm taking chats frm office as topics. Haha... Actually, there are certain things that I thought of blogging about lah. Emotions and feelings from deep within my heart. But......... Am aware that there are more people reading my blog even though I might not noe who exactly. Guess it's better to play safe bah...
Yes, am so into hair band craze at work lately. All my colls are asking me abt it. I bought a couple of similar ones with the small ribbon in a corner. Got time then I'll take a pic of them. Boss even asked if mine was the real Ferragamo. Someone got me the imitation from Bangkok lah :)
Am in happy mood today cos tmr is Fri!! We got something special during lunch and I can't wait to meet Carisse, Yufen and Daniel for dinner tmr. Been waiting so long for a chill out session. Will elaborate more in my next post...

Thank You
Wonder how I should start this. Hmmm...Juz wanna say a BIG thank you to U. U noe who U are. The one who spoilt me silly and always wanting to do better than wat others have done for me.
Listening to my rants and grumbles daily, be it nitty gritty stuffs. I noe I could always count on U to be there for me. Going out of your way to please me. Many apologies that I wasn't able to do the same.
Tolerating all my nonsense and "sotness". U didn't even mind tat I call U a PIG HEAD. It makes me wonder how a person can be so nice to others. Of cos there were a few times when U flared up and walked away cos I seriously dun deserve such goodness. U noe when I'm picking a fight and U will squabble with me. But U have nv given up on me...
Sending me home on most days even though the walk from Chinese Garden is not very far. And even picking me up occasionally from work. I said U didn't have to do tat and U will make up excuse that U happened to be paying ur bills at the AXS of Chi Garden. It makes me dread going home now cos I hate the walk. Look wat U have done to me...
I'm not writing this to spite anyone. This is meant as a genuine THANK YOU! And get ur ass back in Singapore soon, Pig Head!

Birthday'10
Somehow I dun really feel like celebrating my birthday anymore once the age hits mid 20s. Haiz so sad... But it still warms my heart to receive all the well wishes from my frenz. This year is slightly more special with a number of messages coming from overseas as some frenz are on holiday.Here's a recap of what I have done over the long wkend. Played badminton on Sat.
Watched "You Again" yesterday. Quite a funny and nice show which I will recommend. Esp good if U used to have an archnemesis whom you could connect with on that show...
Then it was Halloween @ Night Safari after dinner. First time I was there for such event. It was quite fun I must say. I got a real scare the first few times when we were on the tram ride. I was hiding so low in my seat and using my bag to hide my face.
Then I grew bolder and was trying to scare those ghouls back instead. Lol... It was pretty hilarious. They screamed at me and I screamed back as well. Wanted to paw them with my "claws" too. Hahaha... Had quite a late nite cos we queued close to 2 hrs for the Haunted Village which is basically a haunted house with all the ghosts, spirits and what-nots. Well-worth the experience I think. Wouldn't mind going back again next year...
Got woken up by the stupid loud drilling at my block this morning. They are doing some lift upgrading. Decided to jio my dad for bowling since I can't sleep with all that noise. Now that we are back from bowling, the drilling still hasn't stopped! My god, it's giving me a headache soon. Seems like a wrong day to take leave man...
