Eating Spree,

“One should eat to live, not live to eat.” ― Moliere

Visited Loysel's Toy tgth w Twin earlier this month for brunch. We ordered sausage platter and eggs benedict w/ smoked salmon and a cup of watermelon juice to cool ourselves down. The place was quite a distance from the station and we had quite a hard time finding the place. We can conclude that it's a cafe that's meant for only rich people T_T But putting that aside, the ambience there was good.

 

Had impromptu shopping spree w this girl and we spent so much in Bugis Street when we were supposed to explore on cafes. But we were happy w our buys in anyways! Then we settled Shokudo for tea break before heading home.Ordered goma cheesecake, waffle w vanilla ice cream and coke float.

Then it was out w Bestie for dinz date at Bar Bar Black Sheep. Almost got lost if not for my GPS. And we walked one big round in the end. Super love the ambience here. It was just beside the river (idk what's that river called though) and it was alfresco dining. Bestie ordered fish and chips while I ordered smth-grilled fish w tomato sauce (?). A non-alcoholic drink (the first under drinks section). Fell in love w this drink after the first sip. Dessert was some brownies (as usual).

Going Genting tml w Mum and her lady boss and fam. First time going there w them. It was bro and dad w them on two different times respectively and now it's finally my turn. Nothing to look forward to bcos I doubt I can enter the casino. Uncle (Mum's boss) will be driving. Woohoo, how long have I not been to Genting? Exactly 2years. And I'm super glad that my March-trip isn't broken. This is my 3rd consecutive March going overseas even though this time is w Mum. I'm still glad that I'm able to get out of Sg during March. Next up will be w Baby in December after he ORDs, after my term test! :D Can't wait!!!! 

Shall end my post w a photo taken w Bestie on that night. Till then...

So Near, Yet Far,

“You see, you closed your eyes. That was the difference. Sometimes you cannot believe what you see, you have to believe what you feel. And if you are ever going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them, too. Even when you're in the dark. Even when you're falling.” ― Mitch Albom

It's been awhile... 
So many things happened within these two months to the extent that I find it unbelievable. Some things happened without any signs and that makes us realized how much we hadn't treasured it in the past. Had been accompanying Granny for her eye checkups, except for the first and last, since my first paper ended. This happened without any signs. Yes, it's Glaucoma. According to the research I've done, everyone is at risk for Glaucoma. It can happen to a newborn baby to a snr citizen. The worst thing is, there is no symptoms at all. And once you find that your vision is blurred, that means the degree of Glaucoma is at high risk. I can't rmb where I found this fact bcos the search I've done was on two different days. Just find that there's a need to blog about this fact for anyone who's reading this so it can also raise awareness to you.

This year, CNY has got no special feel to me at all as all the assignments, projects and study time were all cramped together and making me damn stressed up over such stuffs. Had to miss out 2 house visiting as time was running out. This also meant that good food were all missed. /sigh. House visiting at WJ's place on the 6th day of CNY. Always love the moment spent w my best clique. The laughter and relaxed moment! Second time over at Baby's place for house visiting and this time w all his relatives over. One of his uncles was a hilarious one and get along super well w the kids.

Main papers weren't easy at all. First paper was a breeze. Then it was SFM and BMS papers... These two, I'd say, were the killers. Now I hope I'll promote to Yr3 and that's all I rlly want for now. Results will be out on the 14th of March. It's fixed...

Spent my first few days of sem brk at home doing props for Sylvia's 21st. It wasn't as easy as I thought it'd be. All the cuttings, and pasting of stuffs. Then it was the actual day. It's a blast @ the chalet for 2D1N. And I was so attracted to one of her nieces. Why so cute! Con even helped me to ask the dad if we can take photos of her daughter. I want my future daughter to be so cute too! :/ K, that's a long way to go. Anyway, cycling session w the clique the next day under the scorching sun. We must be mad but it's quite windy. Sun-burnt and my face was the reddest amongst all. I blush naturally to whoever I saw on that day. LOL! Visited Granny @ her place w fam + yz in the evening. And sushi feast the next day w yz which I've been craving it for at least a wk during my study brk. One word: torturing.
