Went with 2, back with 4.

Back from Taiwan.
Loved the place as always.
Many changes since the last time I was there.
It was a very hot and sunny while we were there until the very last day - poured horses and cows.
I will be doing a day-to-day guide on the places I went and how to get there for my own personal reference as well as for those who need it next time.
Please give me some time to sort the photos, load them and include the details.

Riddle for this post.
Guess what I'm referring to -> 'Went with 2, back with 4'?
1st correct guess will get a goodie bag from me with an array of stuff from Taiwan =)

PS: Ami and Mich not entitled to the giveaway to be fair. -_-"

Marina Bay Sands..

We went to Vivo to get some stuff done a couple weeks ago and I just found these photos.
Heading back, Yong de-toured and I got some photos of MBS.
Clear blue skies!

All photos taken from the car with a Sony point & shoot camera.
Skies not that clear but still pretty blue =)

YOG2010.

I told Yong at the beginning of the YOG that if Singapore can win at least a bronze it'll be a feat.
We (or rather the atheletes) did better than that!
Singapore's football seems to be looking up too.
I caught some of the YOG actions - Rainer Ng scoring his Silver in the pool, Taekwondo's bronze and last night's match where Singapore cubs won Montenegro 3-2 to advance.

Best thing?
These winners are true blue Singaporeans.
I'm not against the foreign imported talents in any way but it feels d*mn good to see some bred and born Singaporean youths winning these medals.

Was chatting with a colleague this morning on the YOG and why the medal table isn't in the official website.
She sent an email to check and the reply was that the YOG was supposed to be a friendly gathering of youths all around the world and winning a medal wasn't supposed to be on the top of their minds.
That explains the weird combinations for the marathon relay and the shooting teams we saw on TV.
It's pretty interesting to see them bond this way in YOG.
I wonder if the athletes of Singapore get any cash incentives for the medals they won??

One last thing, I saw Joscelin Yeo on TV last night with the PM- she doesn't look that man-ly anymore.
Quite pretty I must say. =)

Annual Bowling Event.

Had great fun at a bowling event last week!



Siti was all dressed up =)


My team!


I won the best female this year with a total score of 263 for 2 rounds.

Our team also won the best team with the highest total average score.
Thanks to the great teamwork and cheers we had going on.
It was really fun!

敗家了!

As usual..more shopping done!
Due to requests, I ordered OldNavy, F21, Drugstore, Disney and Mayuki all at one go in July.
Clothes, clothes and more clothes from online.
Stuff here are from F21, Mayuki and CottonOn.

Soft Denim shorts and jumper from CottonOn.
Siti says there's a specific name for this type of denim which I forgot what the name is.
Too cheam.
*it's called dungaree - she's a real smart girl!!!*

2 tops from F21.
Actually bought 4 but 1 couldn't fit so I sold it off.
The other is kinda loose after wearing it once - Ami it's coming your way after I wash it.

Tops from Mayuki.
There's 4 bottoms too but I forgot to take a photo.
It's just bottoms anyway.

Beauty.com items - UD primer in sin and cream shadow.

UD Pore perfecting makeup base sample came with the UD purchase.
The rest are all free samples with any order.

Ella very kindly got me these bath bombs in Honeybee and Avobath from PH Lush.
It weighs about 1 kg so THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!!

Ettusais zero pore coat.
I saw this on Trina's table and asked if it was good.
She told me she never use and ask me to take it. =X
I have no idea how to use this.

1st year anniversary celebration.

Yong told me to get prepared for a night out.

Got this dress in Thailand for only 250baht.
Was meant for a wedding but I decided to wear this instead.

Done look.

Simple storm blue smoky eyes.

Yong bought me to the Black Opal at Jewelbox.
I ordered the set dinner which I would give a 4/5.
Yong ordered ala carte.

My starters - Asparagus with Scallops.
This was yummy - asparagus and scallops cooked to perfection.
Asparagus was soft but still crunchy.
Scallops were just a lil raw inside.

Yong's ceasar salad with salami.

Guess whose?

Onion soup cooked Japanese style.
This was yummy too!
Sweet onion soup with cheese and a soaked bread inside - first time I drank Onion soup like that!

One of my main - Cod Fish!!!
I love it loads!!

My other main - duck breast.
This didn't really do it for me.
Since it was breast meat - it being a lil thick made it tough to chew on.

Yong's Sirloin steak.


Dessert - Chocolate Mousse.
H.E.A.V.E.N.L.Y.

After dinner, it was about 9pm.
We decided to head to RWS to take a stroll.
The last time wasn't that great an experience.

Taking the tram at the carpark.
FYI, the carpark - it was huge!!!
If you walked from one end to the other, it takes about 10-15 minutes?
Not to mention the amount of exhaust fumes you'd be breathing in.


We found the VS store - nothing much to cheer about I feel.
Having went to the store in US this was somewhat a miniature of that.
Not much lingerie.

The other store I was trying to find was the Hershey's store.
We found it!!
It's near the entrance of Universal.
Chocolates galore!!!!!

This was really interesting.
Scented candles in the candies.
It smells really, truly like the candies.
Yong says the ants will come.
I think I'll faint in the room coz I remembered the time I watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
They had this special scent in the cinema to make the movie more real.
It was too much that I felt like puking..hahahah....


Wee~ Pillows!!!
They were really soft.
IT'S SO FLUFFY I'M GONNA DIEEEEeeeeeeee....

For the fun of it - since we didn't get to go in.
It's ok, I'll be in there next month!
Michelle, bring DSLR!!
Time to go home.

We saw this on the way home.
What a way to end the night. =)

FOTD.
I ate my lipgloss.
