Royal Coppenhagen~

On Sunday, Nic took me to this extremely posh looking high-tea place hidden at a corner in Takashimaya, Orchard. Its called Royal Coppenhagen. I have never seen this place, yet alone heard of it before. Thanks to Elaine (Nic's colleague) for recommending Nic to bring me there. I absolutely love this place as it doesn't just offer sandwiches, cakes, tea and coffee but also a selection of other mouth watering courses...

We ordered a salad which consist of salmon and potatoes with some yummy sauces. I totally forgot to take a picture of it until we were scraping the plate clean. Then I had the 'Selfish Pasta', which was super duper with pesto and tomato base sauce served together with a selection of seafood topped on linguine. MMmmm~

Selfish Pasta

Nic ordered the 'Baked Cod' which also came with pesto sauce. The fish was served with mashed potatoes and french beans wrapped with bacon. It was superb and now Nic is crazy about pesto sauce.

Baked Cod

We were amazed with the presentation for each dish and totally overwhelmed with the flavours. We wanted so bad to order the green tea cake for dessert but it was sold out already. Its a totally cool hang out place, for couples, friends or even family. Can't wait to go back for another amazing experience! Thank you baby...

I.M.A.L.U.L.U.

I can't believe how silly things I've done in my lifetime...But I'm sure there are a great many that can be written into a super thick book!

My favourite pyjamas fell to its death yesterday night when I was bringing in my laundry. Note: I live on the 16th floor, the highest on this building. Its not like my pjs are extremely expensive or even branded to begin with, but it was one of my favourite ones. And you know how its like losing your favourite things....*sad sigh*

The best story is yet to come...

I have previously blogged about losing my week old handphone in the cab. I also recall writing about leaving my house keys in the cab. I think I have left the bulk of my rented chinese dramas in the cab last night. It hasn't been confirmed. But there isn't anywhere else to left to look. From the shopping bags I brought home yesterday, to the big bag I was using yesterday (yes, go ahead and ask me why I didn't just keep it in that big bag), there really isn't any trace of it. I do remember walking out of the shop with the plastic bag in hand though. So where else can it be other than in the cab...

I'm pretty sure regardless how many times I remind myself to look at the cab seat before I leave, I'm gonna repeat this humiliating routine another time in the future...

*bangs head on wall....a few times*

Give Me 25 Hours~

I need more time...more time!!

I hate it that I'm getting less time in Singapore these days. Work has been scheduled in such a way that I'm not around very often. Its good in a way, cause being away for a long time means that I earn a little more on allowance. But its killing me, cause I've got Nic whom I've rarely spend time with over the last month, I've got a messy room I've not been able to get organized, I've got friends I wanna call out to meet, I've got a freaking tired body that doesn't feel well rested, I've got a growing tummy which needs super exercise to get rid of (hopefully), I've got some fitness lessons I haven't attended since two months back, and tonnes of other things I just wanna start doing.

Give me more time...more more more!!

What's Your Favourite?

I was just reading through my blog entries for the past one year. So different the way I write last time than compared to now. My beginning entries were forced written, like I'm writing for the sake of other people reading it. Then it improved a little, when I had more time to spend in front of the computer, I wrote a little more light hearted ones. Now, I've matured a little more, perspectives have changed...

Its weird, but entertaining to read those older entries. It makes me wanna blog all over again. Maybe I should do this more often. Help me organize my problems, sort out my unhappy thoughts, share my joyful moments...wait...isn't this the exact same reason why I started blogging? Sigh~

Some things just need to be rekindled...

Last Day In Abu Dhabi~

I can't believe it. I've been in Abu Dhabi since last Wednesday, exactly one whole week already! The weather has been over 30 to 40 degrees. I've been hybernating in my room for most of the times. I think I'm getting accustomed to the time difference too (its GMT +4 over here), I'll be in deep trouble when I'm back home. I'll be waking up past 1pm and having dinner at 11pm. Sigh~ So unhealthy...

View from my hotel room window. Looks pretty glum

but extremely hot and stuffy outside....

The evening view...even hotter!

Its been great being able to do nothing but just hybernate all the time. But I was getting crazy not being able to talk to my loved ones or hanging out with friends. Thank God they have internet connection here. Otherwise I'll be doomed with boredom...

Oh well...I'm checking out later...

Learning Moments...

You know, in one's life, learning is something you will do everyday. Regardless if you are learning from your mistakes, or other's mistakes, learning from scratch, learning something to expand your knowledge, its a never ending learning process....

I learned some new things during this week. About relationships. Between lovers, there isn't any secrets we should keep, but there are things that we should learn not to say when its not the appropriate moment. Between friends, understanding is good foundation to build a friendship, but never ever for once think, that you understand people completely. Between family, no matter what happens, we are still from the same flesh and blood.

I was reminded today, that it isn't the material things I receive from Nic that makes my day. It's not the gifts that come to mind when I think about him. Its not important if my friends thinks he doesn't spend on me. Its the way he treats me, love me, understand me that makes others different. Its the things he is willing to say and do for me that makes him special from the rest. What people see doesn't mean its true. What people don't see doesn't mean its not there.

I was reminded today, that no matter how good friends two people can be, each person still is entitled to their own opinions. They can share their views, but that doesn't mean that they have to force it on another person or agree with one another.

There are many things out there which I have not learned, do not know about. But the many things that I do know, and have learned, I shall keep it in mind and pave my future with it.

Staring into space...

I'm in London.

The time difference is seven hours behind Singapore time.

I'm staring into space, wanting to sleep so badly, but its only 7pm over here. I can feel my body clock dying inside. Its screaming to me, "Stop torturing me!". You would think I should be used to it by now. But jet lag happens everytime. The only thing I've learned is to arrange my time in such a way that I don't sleep too early or wake up too late in certain places.

Blue skies in London

By the way, yesterday's weather was pretty good in London. Fit for a picnic actually. I walked through the park three times. The lengthy road reminded me of the opening scene in 'The Happening'.

Creepy...
