Love Fest... :)

First time ever, the YA (young adults) organised a valentines day dinner for the youths. :) Eric invited Qiuyi and i double invited her... so she finally came to spend that night with us... :)

my bro mc the event... lots of good compliments went his way... :)

I had to help to do the reception... wish i could have keeping Qiuyi company... but she was really understanding... anyway, once i was done with that duty, i got to spend the rest of the time with her... :)

We had dinner, played games... and got to know one another better... Haha...
I learnt 3 things that no one knows abt Qiuyi...

1) Qiuyi doesn't like to eat rice
2) Qiuyi sleep at least 8 hrs a day
3) Qiuyi sleeps with her little red dog that she has had since a kid...
(it's a doll) :p

She also won miss love fest... :) she wrote a statement abt abt our friendship... :)
Really touched my heart... :)

"2 complete strangers (JL & I) met on the street one day and have been friends ever since! She re-introduced God to me and has always been willing to offer a listening ear. On the day we met, we taled for hours without shyness and there has been no looking back... :)"

Indeed, there has been no looking back... :) Our friendship is something that God gave to me... like a susprised gift... i never thought i could meet such a good friend on the street thru EE... :) I can always count on you as well to talk to and just chit chat without shyness... :) I'm so blessed to have you in my life... with no regrets ever... :)

Qiuyi, u are no light bulb k? i really am very very very happy u came... u made the whole day so much happier and brighter for me... :) I'm no believer of V-day so the fact that u came, it's a celebration of our friendship love... :)





I don't actually believe in V day. I feel that u don't need a special day to tell someone you like them... anyday can be valentines day. And i feel that V day is just a gimmick for pple to shoot up prices to earn money... But... Ber bought me flowers this year... haha... ummm... if i say i not happy is bluff one... of course i'm happy... a bit embarass too... but next time no need la k? it's the heart that counts... :) know that u love me... :)

Thai Express

Me and Mel went to eat Thai express at Raffles City... :)
It's so easy, enjoyable and comforting to spend time with mel... guess when you really become very good friends with someone, you can let all ur guards down and just enjoy the moment... :)

Yummy... i really like the Prawn Toast... :)
yum yum... it's really nice, but it's a bit oily la...
The pineapple fried rice and the Phat Thai Talay was really nice too...
I'm really satisfied with the food... never fails to keep me satisfied and happy after eating... :)

Worst steamboat ever...

Me, Eric and Ber went to eat steamboat near my work place... my goodness... it's the worst ever... i don't think i will ever go back... the service was okie... but the variety of food were little and they were not fresh... their fried food were cold and their wanton and dumplings were not nice... :/ never going back...
When we left, only then did i realised that the shop i wanted to bring ber and eric was just next door... we went to the wrong one... arghhhhh.... Eric says he will not have steamboat for the next 6 mths after this... i felt so horrible.. :(

Din Tai Feng

I went with my cousin, Mei lian on wednesday to go eat Din Tai Feng... :)
Yummy... their Dan dan mee, prawn pancake and xiaolong bao is really good... yummy... :)
I only sad they don't have the fried dumpling... so we settled for the steam dumplings... but they taste almost like the xiaolong bao... oh well...
I miss the fried dumpling me and Ber had in Thailand... wow... that was the best... :)

Had a good time talking to my cousin... haha... we even shared our most embarassing moments... hope to do this more often... when she is not so busy... and also hope to help her improve her relationship at home... but... :/ i also don't know how to help... :/

Anyway, photos of food from Din Tai Feng... :)

CNY 2009

Every CNY, it's chinese custom to "Loh Hei".
It's a dish that has lots of different types of shredded vegetables, lime, sweet sauces, pepper, spices and most importantly raw fish. It's a dish that represents all our wishes for the year ahead and as we all stand up and mix the salad up, we shout out our wishes for the year ahead... :) This is one of my favorite dishes... yummy... when i think of CNY, i think of this dish... :) You can "Loh Hei" with your family, colleges and friends... :)
Wishing everyone a good year ahead... :)
