Cousins reunited!

Felicia organised a belated bday celebration for Tricia yesterday. She had initially planned a BBQ with treasure hunt and games but we ended up switching it to steamboat coz the weather forecast said it was going to rain zzz.

Our dear Felicia planned everything really early wrt to getting inputs for the food to prepare.. Who to bring what etc.. I had to buy the cake from Swissbake near my office.

What was supposed to be a simple bday dinner celebration ended up being more lively and happening than our CNY gatherings. (: we talked about everythingggggg. all the different stuff going on in our lives.. the older generation politics as well as all the latest gossips about everyone, AND we reminisced about the past gatherings and experiences with the other relatives.

I have 2 older cousins 4 & 7 years older than me.. As well as 5 cousins 4,7,8 & 10 years younger than me I thought that meant that I fell into the "older" cousin category and there would be some major age gap differences between us.

Boy am I glad that isn't the case. (:

We're going to have a cousins outing on the 18th and I'm really excited. We haven't had such outings since the days I use to give them tuition. I would bring them out 2x a year.. After each exam. (: we've gone ice skating almost once every year, as well as other activities like snow city (which tanked big time) and east coast cycling (it rained zzz).

Random update

I've been really sick since Sunday. Mad intense coughing like I'm on my deathbed.. And sharp headaches that prevent me from walking around and doing anything. Sigh. I've already taken two days of mc!! How's that for skiving? !

I really don't like taking mc. Even if it is warranted.. It's like broadcasting to everyone oh I'm just going to slack off today and throw my work to all you poor souls.

Oh whatever. My headache seems to have subsided. I finally left the house for dinner last night. It felt so goooood, I felt like I was released from prison lol.

I've recently painted my nails withe gold shatter. It has a very dark purple base haha looks really weird if you ask me. :p pictures will be up soon. Here's a pic from last week's nails. Black shatter & teenage dream. (:

new clothes!! (:

Yayyy was pleasantly surprised to come home to 2 parcels waiting for me! (:

First was this pretty top from TVD. 

I saw it in Kissjane and tried it on and it fit perfectly~! 

the colour is really unique.. me likeyyy (:

And yet another dress from my favourite blogshop Intoxiquette. 

Sadly, size S was a little too loose for me, but i'm going to get it altered. (: 

Good thing the zip is on the back. :D

BOOO it sucks to be back after an awesome holiday!! 

I am missing Hongkong so much and 4 days seem like too short a holiday... There are so many more shops I want to go to, so many more things I wanna buy.. So much more food I wanna eat!! -sadded-

There are tons of places to go & things to eat in Hongkong. Like going mongkok for cheap shopping, sham shui po for electronics, citygate for outlet shopping, and all the different supermarkets!! On hindsight, I would have liked to spend more time in their supermarkets and buy snacks back to Singapore.. :( owell. There's always next time I guess..

I loved the food there! Top of the list of cheap and good food were the Zhu Gan mian (pork liver noodles), and the hongkong style porridge is mad love! We went to a couple of famous restaurants and my favourite one was Sweet Dynasty. We didn't order any fancy dishes, just simple noodles but they were awesomeeee! :D I loved my dessert too! Some coconut milk thing with white fungus and sea coconut. :D 

I miss hongkong BOOO 

I WANNA GO BACK NAO!!!

UPDATE!

HONGKONG HERE I COMEEEEEEEE!!!

I will be in Hongkong from tomorrow to Sunday. Yayyyyy I finally get a holiday~!

For 4 full days, I will do nothing but EAT and SHOP!

nom nom nom..

I didn't change that much money though, as I don't really intend to buy much.

ME CANT WAIT! :D

Nike Race / SUNIG

almost every single day from the day I signed up for the Nike race, to the actual day, I wondered why did I do this to myself??

I'm always so tired from work at the end of the day and I'm not the least bit interested in running / exercising and only doing it coz I should. But was signing up for a race really necessary? I mean I signed up for 1 hour of intense agony (possibly more).. a month of training..  and a week's worth of body aches post race. eep. 

After a month's worth of half-hearted training, it was finally D-Day. omgggggg I was freaking nervous can???

Tricia asked me before the race.. "Below one hour okay?" I'm like oooooo we try lor.. but deep down i was like no way la not possible. hahah.

Anyway, we did it! I managed to finish in 57:55mins!! WHEEEEEE~~~~~~ SUB 58 LEHHHH! I couldn't have done it without you mei. :D

Anyway pictures..

Fresh faces before the run.
