New 2011 Muji Organiser.

As with most years, I design the cover of my own organiser after getting the Muji plain brown colored organiser.
This year, I used the Pique mook cover that I bought back in April as the cover.
It was a waste to throw away the cover and Mr Look was complaining that the box was taking up a lil too much space.
So, I kept the mook's cupboard box in pieces for the organiser.

Tadah!
All done.
Used the plastic wrap to protect it.
The pen was from Michelle =)

Insides all filled up with Public Holidays, Birthdays and important dates.
The organiser probably cost around S$10, I don't remember as I got this a couple months back when I found it in stock after a long wait.
Although you had to fill in all the dates and details but it is personalised =)

London News.

Hmm...Just when I was all excited about the trip to London.
Read a couple of news..


And on the Ch5 news last night..


Apparently the weather will be at its worst for the next 2 weeks.
Hopefully, the weather will change for the better when we arrive *keeping my fingers crossed*.

FOTD & OOTD of Laziness.

I just realise the last time I posted my face on the blog was in October for the wedding.
And that was my face done by a professional.
I've mentioned that I was lazy and tired to dress up for work.
So, here's the FOTD and OOTD of my laziness.
*hahahahaha*

FOTD.
Let's see, I used sunscreen, liquid foundation, liquid concealer, lipbalm and benefit blusher.
Nothing else. =)

OOTD.
My grey top with lace sleeves from BKK, <3 this top max.
Uniqlo cord elastic waist pants.
These are really god-sent.
After the first trimester, my pants are a tad tight and uncomfortable but I can't fit into maternity wear *yet*.
I don't like to wear dresses everyday.
So thanks to Uniqlo's elastic waist pants/jeans - I've got bottoms to wear!!!
Also, they are cheaper than maternity wear. *wee-o-wee*!!
I reccomend all ladies to try these pants out!!
I wore this outfit with a necklace and black pumps from Ruby.
Tadah!
That's for my day at work!

BeautyMaker Aquamarine Toner, Serum & Lotion.

 I've finished my Hada Labo range of face care so I've started on my recently purchased BeautyMaker set.
I bought this on PayEasy.com and collected them from the 7-11 when I was in Taiwan during August.


3 items I used (from L to R) - Aquamarine softening toner, Aquamarine Hydrating Serum and Aquamarine Hydrating Lotion.

I've only started using them Monday this week so the below reviews are based on my first hand account with using these products.
My routine for the day and night differs by 1 step.
Day: Toner, Lotion, Sunscreen, Base Makeup.
Night, Toner, Serum, Lotion, zzzz.

Aquamarine Softening Toner 120ml

The product packaging is great!
It comes with a spray nozzle and you spray it onto your face directly.
Pat it on and your done.
Doesn't let you waste the product =P
The packaging is plastic too so it's great for travelling (if you are used to bringing full sized face care).
I usually let this dry before I go on to Step 2.

It smells great - Rose scent for all 3 products.
Absorbs fast and it also helps to minimise my pores around my nose and cheeks =)
However, I realise all 3 products has Paraben.

Aquamarine Hydrating Serum 30ml

The usual pump nozzle.
I use about 2 pumps for my face & neck.
The product is a clear liquid which goes onto the face very smoothly.
Similarly, this get absorbs really fast and is non-sticky.

Aquamarine Hydrating Lotion 50ml

So, after Hada Labo, I was pretty skeptical about lotions.
Previously, I've usually used gel based products.
When pumped out, this is a white fluid.
The texture of the product was really soft and liquidity.
It's not sticky and not thick thus it gets absorbed real quick like the other 2 products.

I'm really bad at description so here's a photo of the lotion.

So, after 1 week of usage, I find that my pores are smaller.
Which explains why I have less blemishes which my facial therapist mention was due to clogged pores.
My scars on my chin are lightening too =)
T-zone doesn't secrete as much oil as with Hada Labo.

Oh, I've stopped using the Hada Labo cleanser as I found it too harsh on my skin.
I'm using the VinVin AHA Magic Bubble facial wash 350ml from Payeasy.
This doesn't smell nice (not nice!) but I think it does it's job of cleaning my face better than Hada Labo.

I was just looking back at my Taiwan buys post and I realised that I haven't even touched the Jill Stuart Makeup or the Lunasol foundation I bought.
I'm still trying to finish some other foundations I have on hand and I'll be reviewing them shortly. =X

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells....

Yay! Christmas is coming!!!
Another 1 month away!!!
Have you prepared your Christmas gift list?
I love December cause it's my birthday month *woohoo* and there are also the holidays!!
Season for giving, eating & growing *sharing* fats!
*Muahahahaha*

Well, I've got most of my Christmas Shopping done.
Yes! I am super K.S when it comes to my Christmas shopping.
I don't really like to squeeze with people in Orchard Road and I feel that merchants kinda jack up their prices during the seasons despite having sales! 
So, I start my shopping during July/August with my name list in mind.
Usually, I end up with more gifts than I should have.

Next, I need to wrap them up.
I'll be doing that soon as I need to give them out slightly earlier this year for my colleagues =P

As for what I'm wishing for Christmas...
*drum roll*

I SERIOUSLY HAVE NO LEMMINGS =X


X CLOTHES X
X BAGS X
X MAKEUP X
X GADGETS X
X SKINCARE PDTS X
X WATCH X
X HAIR CARE X
X BODY CARE X
X MOBILE PHONE X

P.S. sorry Mr Look, I know this post not helping you much. =p

Koi fix.

Hmm, I realise some people in Singapore don't really know Koi Cafe so I'm doing a post to introduce them and how to order my fav cuppa..haha..(like real)...this is not a paid advertisement (again, how I wish it was..even in kind..1 cup every month sounds good).

Basically, because of my 1. laziness, 2. tiredness and 3. laziness and tiredness - I haven't really been dressing up or putting much makeup for work or to go gai gai (outings).
Thus, that explains why I haven't posted any such photos recently *pouts*.
Today, I'm wearing black gauchos, tee with specs.
On my face, there's sunscreen and foundation only (no concealer even!!) =X
What's there to post?!!
And (to self slap), I brilliantly told Mr Look that I will not be one of those pregnant ladies who don't dress up or put makeup (no offence to those ladies out there cause I'm part of the gang now)!
I finally understood - I don't even have enough time to zzz and getting up to shower already saps half my morning's energy away, how to dress up!!!! 
Excuses only!!
 Keep reminding myself - 世上没有女人,只有女人!!!
To translate: There's no ugly women on earth, only lazy woman.
Able to get out of the house and to the office is already good enough.
I don't fault those ladies anymore *hugs*.
I can finally say - I comprehend, I totally do comprehend.
But, I need to reiterate to those ladies afraid to get pregnant due to the symptoms that you read here -
 NOT EVERYONE GOES THROUGH THE SAME PROCESS! =)

Anyway, back to bubble tea.
For those who do not know what bubble tea is, the below excerpt was taken from Wiki.

Bubble tea is a sweetly flavored tea beverage invented in Taiwan.
Drink recipes may vary, but most bubble teas contain a tea base mixed with fruit (or fruit syrup) and/or milk.
Bubble teas usually contain small tapioca balls or pearls called "boba".
These teas are shaken to mix the ingredients, creating a foam on the top of some varieties, hence the name.


Well, ever since my first trip to Taiwan, I fell in love with their warm milk bubble tea.
This was probably back in 2006 or 2007 with the bubble tea craze in Singapore almost dying down.
I wasn't able to find warm bubble tea in Singapore on the go until recently when Koi Cafe opened up.
I would say that it's the closest thing I could find to the one I had in Taiwan but be warned that different outlets serve up slightly different tastes =P
Don't ask me how to differentiate good and bad bubble tea.
I'm not an expert.
I just like to drink it.

Like I said in my earlier post, pregnant ladies are asked to reduce intake of caffine.
I try to drink Koi only once every 3 weeks =P
Also, I ask for only 25% of sugar.
Oh, I think why Koi has long queues is also their ability to cater to your wanted sugar levels.
This was never available before Koi opened up.
Healthier choice? I don't really know.
Again, I'm going to warn that I feel that some outlets' 25% seems sweeter than other outlets.

Ok, so how to order Koi.
I've seen people struggling to order their drinks before.
Nevermind, order once and you'll know right?
Don't worry too much.

1. Queue up.
Be prepared to queue twice, once for the order and the other time to get your drink. Sometimes the queue to order might not seem long but the wait to get your order might be super duper long. I've always heard people say that the wait time is crazy long due to the massive crowds. Longest I've waited? Probably 30 minutes for the entire process. Since I've got a Koi just under my office, I tend to only buy on days that the queues are relatively shorter. Usual wait time for the entire proces would be 10-15 minutes max. =)

2. Decide on your drink, the size of the drink, pearls and level of sweetness.
Well, this is the tough part. Koi has over 20 types of drinks. Size is easy - only Medium and Large. Medium is the small and Large is the large. hahaha. Go see for yourself. Next, do you want pearls? And lastly, the level of sweetness - 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%. For Honey Milk Tea - the level of sweetness is not an option.

3. Order, pay and wait to collect.
Erhm, after ordering and paying, the lady/gentleman will hand you a slip of paper with a number on it. Go and stand at the side and wait for your number to be called. They don't collect the slip of paper back so you can just collect your drink and throw the slip of paper into the bin at the counter. Don't wait there and try to stuff your paper at him/her - they'll just tell you they don't need it or (in the worse case) ignore you and point to the bin.

Viola, your first Koi experience!

For my usual order, I take either Milk Tea (S$2.40), Green Milk Tea (S$2.40) or Honey Milk Tea (S$2.90) in the medium cup with less pearls (they give too much for a medium cup - not complaining, just that I don't want a whole mouthful of pearls with every gulp) and with 25% level of sweetness. I usually order mine warm too.

My warm medium milk tea with less pearls and 25% sugar.

Meeting with a great girlfriend.

Friendships are always difficult to maintain as it always takes effort from both parties.
I am usually lucky that I have friends who make the effort to ask for a meeting and I'm always grateful for it.
Of course I still have some friends lost along the way but there will always be those whom we'll share the happy, sad and angry with.

One such friend of mine is Jennifer.
We've been friends since poly days and after asking me out for more than a month, we finally met up last Saturday.
Jenn, I know you read my blog so I'd like to say thanks for waiting for me for the meetup and also for traveling all the way to Bugis in between 2 meetings =)
It's also friends like Jennifer who keep the rest of the gang in contact =P
She's like the grapevine of all happenings and I get loads of updates from just 1 meeting with her.

Although the meet up was only for a mere 2 hours, it seemed like it was more than that as we chatted about life, work, relationships etc.
These are probably what quality time with friends are about.
Seeing each other day-in, day-out at school all those years is nothing compared to meeting up for 2 hours after not seeing each other for months.
 I probably still owe all my poly mates a makeup wedding dinner.
Hopefully, I'll arrange a get together at my house before I head to the delivery room =)
Hopefully, everyone or most people can make it.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1.

As Ler Jun's belated birthday gift, Mr Look and I brought him to watch Harry Potter on Saturday.
I also bought the popcorn combo which came with a plastic wand.
It was a far cry from the actual wands in the movie (I think using a branch will look more like the actual one) but I think it'll do for now.

The movie was really different. No Hogwarts and no Dumbledore.
It's also a little more dark than usual.
It was a little draggy but I think it's always a difficult balance to cover more details and what to cover.
Overall, I felt that it was alright.
Oh, I never read the book too so I can't really comment on what was covered.
The lead actors/actresses have really grown up too!!
Since it's part one, you'll be left hanging there at the end of the movie so be prepared for that =P

Review: Hada Labo Products.

Well, I've been contemplating if I should do this review because of my changing skin (due to hormonal changes).
Nonetheless, I've decided to still go ahead with the review.
Please bear in mind that I've started using these products before my changing conditions.
Also, I've finished most of the products that I am reviewing below.

Disclaimer: All these products were bought with my own moolah and these were not sponsored/paid in any way. Also, the below views are mine and it may differ to other reviewers.
Photos were taken off Hada Labo website.

1. AHA/BHA Exfoliating Face Wash. S$12.90.

I did not purchase the Super Hyaluronic Face Wash because after reading up on both face washes, I was a little more impressed with the AHA/BHA one. It has an additional polishing effect to give a clarity and brightening effect by promoting cell renewal. I had wanted to get the foam bottle as I was too lazy but I only found this in Taiwan. This is suggested to be used with sunscreen. I guess it's due to the fact that it polishes off skin leaving it a little more vulnerable.

My views: I still use my Ginvera Green Tea Marvel Gel once to twice a week despite the promise of polishing by the face wash. Personally, I find that the marvel gel gives my face the whiter/brighter feel and I don't find this a really good buy despite the price. Also, I think my pores were significantly bigger thus having a little more clogged pores than usual. Not sure if it was due to the facial wash though. I've used Faceshop facial washes and found that it's better. For me, I feel that having a clean face to start with is vital and I'm more willing to spend a little more on a good cleanser. So this doesn't really work for me and I won't think of buying it again.
 

The rest of the products I used were from the hydrating range.
I have dry/combi skin which was always in need of hydration and I was really excited when Hada Labo was launched in Singapore some months back.
I tried 3 of the hydrating range products.

2. Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Lotion. S$22.90
This is the product that has 1 sold every 4 seconds in Japan and it helps to improve dry and dehydrated skin.
Basically, hydration is the main purpose of this item.
Use it after the facial wash, pat gently onto the skin.

My views: I've finished the entire bottle =) I find that if I use this alone, it's not as fantastic as using it with the serum. But it does improve hydration of my skin after using it. I like it that there's no alcohol which doesn't irritate my skin as some toner. One bottle also goes a long way as you only need 2-3 drops to pat on the face. No visible smells too =) I might re-purchase this item again in future.

3. Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Essence. S$30.90
This product like all essences provide for deeper hydration with a higher concentration of Hyaluronic Acid.
After the lotion, pat this onto the skin.

My views: I'm finishing this bottle too. I feel that the essence used at night really allows for the skin to be softer and more supple the next day. It does feel hydrated and not dry even if I sleep in air-con. This might be a re-purchase for me if there's a sale in Watsons.
Also, a tip for those using this, if you think you've finished it via the pump, stand it upside down, un-screw the pump and you'll find more of the essence. By doing this, I have enough for another 8-10 more usages.

4. Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Milk. S$22.90
This is basically the moisturiser in the range.
Use it after the lotion or after the essence.

My views: Sad to say, this bottle is still sitting in my cupboard. I've tried it 3-4 times over a span of time and gave up on it totally. Reason being that I find this sticky after application. There might be some reviews that doesn't find it sticky but I do. After applying, I left it to dry and when I touch my face - it's still sticky. It doesn't seem to be fully absorbed into my skin and it leaves sort of a film on the surface of my face. So, I gave up on this product. Before doing this review, I tried it one more time and I still felt the same despite me using only a 10 cent drop of product. So, this is a no-go product for me.

=================================================================

For those travelling in December or those who want to try the products, Hada Labo will be launching a LE Gift pack for S$15.90 at Watsons.
I read that it will be available from 18 Nov onwards.
For those who want to try this - this might be a better way rather than getting the full sized product. =)

Ivy's Day Out - Movie, Shopping & Dinner.

Yes! I finally had a full day out (around 8 hours out of the house) after so many months!
I was asking my hubby when was the last time we watched a movie in the cinema.
He doesn't remember either.
Since it was Hari Raya Haji (he woke me up before 10am for breakfast) and he'd finished all the housework, I suggested to go catch a movie in the cinema.
Headed out at around 1230 to Balestier for a MacDonald's lunch and than to catch the movie 'Unstoppable'.


If it's a film starring Denzel Washington, we'll always try to catch it.
As usual, the film was not a disappointment =)
If you're not a Harry Potter fan but want to catch a movie this weekend, I'd suggest you catch this film.
It really makes you pay attention to the film almost every step of the way.
I shall leave it as that.

The next movie I'll probably catch will be Harry Potter this Saturday and maybe 'Red' soon.
Yea, trying to catch up on all the missed films the past 2 months..haha..
Luckily most of the interesting films come out during Nov/Dec period.

After the movie ended around 3pm, I suggested to head to Kino for the 20% sale.
Least did I expect the queue to be super duper duper looooonnnnnggggggggg!
I really mean it....
It's worse than Mango sales!!!
We judge them to be 50-80 metres long.
I'm not joking!!!!!
I G.A.V.E U.P without even attempting to queue..hahahahahah.
Forget it =P I stood there to flip magazines only.
We shopped around (actually only Zara) and than headed to Ion for Starbucks!!

Ok, I am told by my gynae to try to abstain from coffee and tea.
I'm not the type that require coffee on a daily basis but I do enjoy a cuppa once in a while even before pregnancy.
I love my occasional bubble tea too =)
So, my indulgence this time round was Chai Tea Latte (which is categorised as Black Tea)!
Tea has less caffeine content as compared to coffee so I feel less guilty..haha..excuses la.
And I was a little hungry - Bagel with cream cheese!!!!
I didn't polish off everything on my own, Mr Look took maybe 1/4 of everything =P
Share my fats!!!
Wahahahahha.....

Next, continue shopping.
Headed to CrabTree & Evelyn since members had 30% discount storewide.
Wanted to get their hand therapy lotion but couldn't settle on scent.
Headed to L'Occitane instead.
Haiz = spend more $$$.


I still love the Cherry Blossom scent.
They launched 2 new scents Fleur Cheri and LE Rose des Neiges.
Fleur Cheri is described as a floral fragrance of Neroli, Jasmine and Musk.
I find that it has a peachy scent, the SA described it as Peach Blossom.
Rose des Neiges is a LE Christmas scent.
As the name states - Rose scent.
Very sweet and not overpowering.
I fell in love with the scent thus I got the gift set at S$43.50.
I'll check with Haru if L'Occitane is cheaper in London and I'll get some full sized items there =P

I also went next door to Kiehl's to get their lip balm.

My lip has been cracking up recently and I'm worried it will get worse in London.
I got this balm for a couple of close colleagues last year and I've always wanted to try.
It is a little expensive at S$19 (which Mr Look 'complained') but I think it's alright compared to some other brands for 15ml =)
I've been using MLS and Laneige lip treatment balms which sadly does not have SPF for the day.
So, I'll use these at night before I sleep and the new Kiehl's balm during the day.

We had a romantic tabao-ed dinner on the steps of NAC under the stars.
If the Christmas lighting have started, it would be more romantic.
And, to top of the night, our parking at Wisma (for 4 hours or so) was free~
The parking mechanism had some bugs and $$ wasn't deducted from our cashcard!
Thanks Wisma!!

Back to work!
1 more day till the weekend!

Typical Boy-Girl conversation.

I was at Esprit with my boss who was looking for a pair of jeans after lunch yesterday.
She was in the fitting room trying on her jeans and I was just outside fiddling with the wool scarves on display.
One lady walked out from the fitting room in a pair of jeans to show the guy (I'm not too sure if they were married or just in a r/s) and the conversation went:

Girl: How do I look?
Boy: Hmmm..
Girl: I think I look fat. Do I look fat?
Boy: Hmm...
Girl: Do I look fat or not?
Boy: Darling, you don't look fat...the jeans just looks tight...

I was a little stunned by the gentlemen's answer.
Both my boss and I agree that it was a very diplomatic answer.
Please don't put your hubby/bf in that situation unless you are prepared for the answer - ya, you look fat.
And, you can't be angry simply cause you asked =P




P.S: I wasn't eavesdropping, I happen to be standing just next to them.

From Lush HK with love.

Ami headed to HK last week to work and I didn't want to bother her to buy stuff for me so I didn't give her any shopping list.
Although busy, she still did go shopping!!
From Lush with love from Ami.

Ocean Salt face scrub, porridge soap (my fav) and the Shiny Happy People gift box.

So cute.
Ya, I won't eat although it does smell good enough to eat.


Emotibomb, hair & body wash and sandstone soap!

Thanks Ami!!!!

Baby Look.

Thanks to everyone who have showered my baby and me with blessings.
I greatly appreciate them.
However, this blog will not be a baby blog.
Every now and then, I will post updates on my baby but the majority of the post will not be about him/her.

Well, the journey so far is something that I can't find a single word to describe.
I first found out I was pregnant (with the urge of my boss) back in mid September.
The usual aching boobs, tiredness and little appetite (I thought) was due to the fact that my period was approaching.
I only missing my period for 4 days or so that my boss told me to do a test.
Lunch time came and off to Watsons.
She was more excited than I was.

Well, the result was out.
And, I was at a lost for words.
All the emotions hit me at once - happy, excited, sad, anxious etc.
Thing was I took a taxi home and it was drizzling.
Called my hubby to fetch me and he was reluctant to come down.-_-"
He didn't know yet but he did come down in the end.
I broke the news to him only when we reached home.
Happy dad..


I headed to the gynae and found out I was actually already 5 weeks pregnant.
This meant that baby's first trip was to Taiwan!
The past months, I was battling morning sickness and tiredness.
It was H.O.R.R.I.B.L.E!
I had no energy to even get up from bed.
Thanks to flexible work practices and a great boss, I was absent every other day from office until the 12th week.
I literally stayed home every day and outings lasted at most 2-3 hours.
I told myself this has to end on the 12th week!!
Miraculously, it did =)
Some times the morning sickness will last till 4-5 month (like my mum).
Now, I'm probably only battling fatigue which is still alright.
I did get some tips from great mummies which I will share at the end of this post but I don't think it's a sure-fire solution for everyone pregnant.
So, baby cleared the 12th week sonography.
Some scan photos below.

Baby in my womb.
Head, body, hands, legs all visible.

Baby's approx length is 5.36 cm at 11th week and 6 days.

So, back to the first few months, my best friend was ginger soup.
Helps me release the gas stuck in my tummy which helps me reduce the nausea feeling.
My colleague used gassy drinks like coke, pepsi to get rid of the gas.

As for waking up and feeling the nausea - eat something once I woke up helped loads.
This was an advice from a mummy who had 3 kids =)
Eat anything, drink a glass of warm milk, milo, bread, biscuits.

Tiredness?
Just have to sleep it off.
12 hour sleep works best =)

Lastly, you need a really supportive husband through the process.
It really matters.
Although it doesn't seem to be a big deal that my pimples are popping, stretchmarks are coming, dandruff is flaking off my head but his support is still very much needed.
Oh, family support too.
It's a real emotional ride.

Now, it's tiredness, achces and hunger pangs.
Wait till the 3rd trimester.
It's amazing what my body is going through and I think getting pregnant kinda makes you listen to your body a little more.

Spending time with my family.

To me, family values are very important.
Once in a while, I'd like to go to my mum's house to stay for a night or two.
Usually, these are the nights my dearest husband are called on to protect the country.
Talking to my mum and sisters gives me great comfort that I know I'm not 'forgotten' by them. =P
Even though technology is really great, nothing beats chit chatting face to face and giving each other a hug.

There's one other family member that can't be neglecting.
Ami's pup - Prada.

This was him last night before my younger sister came home and when my mum was playing computer games.
He's a real attention seeker.

Neglecting my blog.

Yeap, I know, I've been neglecting my blog for some time (again).
Reason being, I've got no updates!
I didn't head out much, neither did I meet much friends, least to say eat much.
I've been pretty lethargic and the routine has been the same - wake up, go to work/laze at home, sleep.
Hahaha..I know it doesn't sound like much but that's the way my life was for the past couple months.
That's also the reason why there's no updates on my blog.
No photos, no energy, no buys...no nothing...how to update?

Well, recently, I'm feeling a little better (yippee!) and with slightly more energy to do stuff during the day.
Thus, my blog will be updated more regularly *hopefully*!

There are a couple of great news this month.

Other than having more energy and appetite, I'm heading to L.O.N.D.O.N in December!!!!
Yes! It's pretty last minute and I'm still struggling a little with the itinerary but I think I'll make it.
Mummy and me will be flying there on SQ A380 (please fix the engine) and Mr Look will be meeting us there =)

After that, we will be cruising on Star Cruises in Jan with Ami, Mich & Mummy!
Wee~
The last time we went for a cruise was after daddy passed away so I'm really looking forward to this vacation with the family.
Sorry, we have to postpone the NZ trip till 2012.

Lastly, most of you might have known due to the recent posts.
Yes, I am pregnant. =)
Into my 13th week of pregnancy now and baby has cleared the 12th week sonography test.
I will post the 'photos' of the baby in the next post.
Thanks for all the care and concern rendered to me the past weeks/months.

Wangz Hotel Lunch 1-for-1 promo.

Headed out to Tiong Bahru for lunch yesterday when my colleague mentioned that there's a promo lunch deal at Wangz Hotel.
It's a newly opened boutique hotel and since another colleague offered to drive, off we went!


I took the simple Fish & Chips.

Served with potato salad and vegs.
We went for dessert.

Apple pie with strawberry ice cream.
This was not bad.
I'll try their signature molten chocolate cake with earl grey ice cream next time.

Mango pudding was not as fantastic.

After lunch, we went to view the rooms.
Like hotel inspection =P
They have 2 connecting balcony rooms which is big enough to hold a party for 20?
hmmm.....

爱心面包。

It's the first week of November.
Tomorrow means an important milestone in my life.
I pray for good news.
Also, I'm feeling much better *fingers crossed* and hopefully I will get better.

Thanks to Mr Look.
His 爱心面包 for my breakfast today.


Looking forward to the long weekend~
