Happy Mid-autumn festival!!

Forgive me....

Have been rather pre-occupied lately in the past few weeks and has been totally neglecting this blog. Sorry folks! Hope to be back online really soon :)

Enjoy the rest of your week :)

Toothpaste Dispenser

Love this new find we got from Gmarket. Got the wine coloured one.

Postcrossing - I will be joining!!

The project

The goal of this project is to allow people to receive postcards from all over the world, for free. Well, almost free! The main idea is that: if you send a postcard, you will receive at least one back from a random Postcrosser from somewhere in the world.

Why? Because, like the author, there are lots of people who like to receive real mail. The element of surprise of receiving postcards from different places in the world (many of which you probably have never heard of) can turn your mailbox into a box of surprises - and who wouldn't like that?

How does it work?

First, the short version:
1.request an address from the website
2.mail the postcard to the address
3.wait to receive a postcard
4.register the received postcard in the system

Observation

I realized that whether it's the courier service man at your door, or the Singpost postwoman, they will announce themselves by calling out "Postman!"

The waiting game is one game that I really do not like.

Book - My Best Friend's Girl

Went to Popular to quickly grab a few books that were on offer to help me past time these 2 weeks. Surprisingly, quite a good read. Simple, nothing mind-blowing. But sometimes you need an easy read like this and not always reading the heavy going stuff.

Mum's birthday lunch

Mum's birthday lunch at Tung Luk last Sunday, plus some photo taking at the 11th floor of Orchard Central. It was actually starting to drizzle quite heavily and the winds were getting strong when taking the group pic. All of us were giggling and going "Quick! Quick!" Hahaha :p

Books

Haven't been reading much in the past months. Cos I was stuck on this book. I caught the movie first, which was ok. When i started reading the book after, I found it to be rather dry. Also, since I already know the storyline, there was no motivation to read on to find out more. And stubborn me intially insisted on finishing it. But i finally decided to drop it halfway.

This was a better read although not as exciting as i was expecting it to be. And just a little anti climatic at the end. But it was ok.

Dinner

Dinner! Cos hubby has to work tonight, so he bought this from a pizza store in our neighbourhood in the afternoon. Heated it up in the toaster for dinner. It was actually quite nice :)

Voyage De La Vie

It was a good performance! Our favourites were definitely Viktor Kee (a world famous juggler) and Alexey Goloborodko (a contortionist)! They were amazing!

Though we must admit that it's not as good as Cirque Du Soleil, but we still enjoyed it thoroughly. It's been awhile since we last went for any performances. And it was our first time at Resorts World though we only walked around the immediate area outside the theatre.

School! School! School!

"I don't want to not go to school anymore, now I have so much homework!"

Death by Chocolate

Chocolate Chip Chocolate Muffins!!

Just mix all the ingredients together and bake!

Super duper easy! And Super duper yummy!!! :)

Movie - Up In The Air

"How much does your life weigh? Imagine for a second that you're carrying a backpack. I want you to pack it with all the stuff that you have in your life... you start with the little things. The shelves, the drawers, the knickknacks, then you start adding larger stuff. Clothes, tabletop appliances, lamps, your TV... the backpack should be getting pretty heavy now.

You go bigger. Your couch, your car, your home... I want you to stuff it all into that backpack. Now I want you to fill it with people. Start with casual acquaintances, friends of friends, folks around the office... and then you move into the people you trust with your most intimate secrets. Your brothers, your sisters, your children, your parents and finally your husband, your wife, your boyfriend, your girlfriend.

You get them into that backpack, feel the weight of that bag. Make no mistake your relationships are the heaviest components in your life. All those negotiations and arguments and secrets, the compromises. The slower we move the faster we die."

Love this blog. The writer leaves these meaningful notes in public places....

Random thoughts

Funny how sometimes you have so much trouble falling asleep.

And the next morning, you have so much trouble waking up.

Wendys

We have been wanting to go to the outlet ever since it opened. So we finally made a trip to the Jurong Point outlet last night. It was so small! I nearly gave up but hubby persisted and we decided to wait for 2 of the less than 15 seats.

Thankfully the food did not disappoint!

Definitely recommended:
- Quarter Pounder Burger
- Ultimate Chicken Grill Burger
- Nuggets

Give it a miss:
- Fries were hard and overcooked.
- Baked potato was so-so, i mean, how wrong can you go with this?
