Was playing pool with the boys on monday, and being hungry people, we ended up eating dinner at Pasta de Waraku at Central because it was nearby.
I was feeling alittle bored, so i decided to be adventurous, and ordered myself a the squid ink pasta!
It looked something like this, only that it was filled with squid and tomatoes instead of a dried chilli... too hungry to bother with pictures la..

Only remembered to take a picture of my remnants just to gross people out! Aha!
But if you ask me, it looks like remnants of a mud pie dessert or something!...so there's also the teeth stain..and Leon's constant reminder to wipe my mouth (poor dude was facing me, so i think black mouth kinda gross him out) Hahahha...
Not too bad was it? Squid ink pasta! :D
Oh, and i have to thank Adi for buying Leon and i dinner despite the lack of an occasion.
I secretly think that he's celebrating for the fact that he's finally able to graduate along with us, and the fact that he is going to Bali for holiday, and many more! Hahahaha.

Was working for Tiger beer for the event Major League Eating.
My job was to serve the VIPs beers, but i guess no one turned up...so Sindy (my partner) and i spent the entire night watching the process of the eating competition. It IS soooooo gross to watch people gobble down the food.
First round was to eat as much Old Chang Kee curry puffs as possible within 8 minutes.
Towards the end, we have a guy who churned out lots of well blended puffs from his mouth.
Sindy and i nearly gagged along with him . Gross!

Next round, there was Carls Junior burger... with 12 minutes to finish up, with no puking casualties.

Third round was... 2 kg of Otah to be finished in 12 mins, and we had yet another puking fella. Watching Otah coming out like a merlion or fountain is grosser than watching curry puffs fall out la. Urgh!

The final round was Satay, and there was no casualties.
No food lover would resort to such drastic measures of eating loh.
All these was organised in conjunction with the Singapore Food Festival and Robertson Walk.
When we were done watching the food competition, there was also a pretty good live band, along with fire gobbler, belly dancer, and a clown/juggler, and a plate of nasi briyani each that the boss of Queen's Tandoori offered to us.

It was good fun and atmosphere, but a little difficult to kill time!
Nonetheless, we had a good time working together...
Oh and that's our new Tiger beer T-shirt! It's kinda cute, but the shoulders of the tee seem alittle small for the both of us! Lol!

Just heard that daddy's going to be back for my convocation. Wow!
My Convocation date is as follow:

Date: 29 Aug 2008 (friday)

Time: 3-5pm for the boring ceremony
5-6pm for the tea reception.

Venue: The grand hall at SIM headquarters
Atrium at SIM headquarters for the food bit.

Hahahahha it's a love hate situation that i have with graduating, and i love it because i am finally done with school, but i hate it because i have yet to find a job to silence every other nagging fella that i meet. Shut up people!

Blinged HTC touch and silly prac pictures

There you go! a short picture update!
Pictures of the En Motion girls during one of our sunday dance trainings, when we girls were trying to split sideways.
Somehow Edward thought it made a good picture moment! Cute right?
It's kinda sad though, as I am no longer as flexible as i used to be! *sobs*
Gone were the days i could stand by the barre and hold my legs straight next to my head!
I can barely hold my legs slightly higher than 90 degrees now!
Boo hoo! I am indeed getting old, despite how i'd like to think that i'm still mentally young!
*i think Gary's trying to do his popping and locking motions while looking into the mirror!
Next, we have my still rather new HTC touch! I blinged it up, and it now has a pretty black crystal lightning! *big grin* This picture made it look as if it is a real lightning! (Yes, in case you are wondering, i painstakingly stuck everyone of the crystals onto the phone! )
Now if only the flash reflection is positioned right at the end of the lightning, instead of the middle, so that it would create the illusion of the HTC logo being struck by lightning!
Ahhh well, i guess it's just me and my usual imagination! Heee!

picture updates july 2008

Since i'm quite in the mood to upload and update pictures, here's another few million pictures of myself! *yawn* so bear with me la! *cackles with laughter*
Long Time ago...1st July
Here we go, Daphne with Grey Fedora hat during orientation.
I was helping to mend the Salsa club's booth, and secretly i was there because i soooooo badly wanted to camwhore with the grey felted fedora (Yah right!). I was actually in school for 2 good reasons, first would be to get people to sign up for salsa classes, and secondly to get my very colorful testimonial filled up and verified by the student care services, so that my resume will look nice when i actually go for interview?

Tuesday
I went to get my hair bling-ed! If you could spot the measely tinsel strands on the right side of my hair! I went around telling everyone that i have hair that is as pretty as "My Little Pony's" tail! Hurhurhuhur! One of my very bimbotic moment i guess!
Well, figure out that i'll hardly have any chance to play with my hair anymore, now that i'm no longer a student...so bimbotic moment or not, i savour my hair freedom!
can't quite tell that i have tinsels on eh?
Wednesday
Mambo at Zouk, the day where apparently the mambo fanatics battled out at a competition to clinch the title of mambo king/queen. Thankfully, i missed out on that bit by the time i reach Zouk. Since it was retro night, i thought that my purple toga with sparkly stars seem like it was really appropriate!

I cannot remember when was the last time i dropped by Mambo, and i'd like to blame it on the weekly dance trainings on Wednesday nights. It's after all so much easier to just skip mambo and abandon the wednesday friends and head home, as I simply couldnt muster the energy to dress up for clubs after a gruelling session of dance practise!

Well apparently someone's gotten himself a new Canon camera, and decided to try out the functions of the camera over supper .... so here we go, Daphne as the guinea pig for effect "vivid red "
That's right, the red of the red welcome carpet seem so much more happening than the standing subject la! *frowns* Determined to show off more effect, we have a posed giggling daphne, and there was supposed to be a sepia mode picture, but i dont know why crix didnt sent it to me. :S
There's my candid talking side profile, where i think i was chatting with either Rachel or Marie ann... and in this picture, i really just want to show off my tinsel strands!
Can you spot them?
Thursday

I was Batman's sidekick for the night, while Robin takes a breather from his sidekick job.
Hahaha!
In truth, it's work work at Clark Quay - where the launch party for the Martini Festival organised by the Martini Inner City was held. 21 days worth of martini related events held in Singapore.
I was representing Bacardi, and therefore the shapeless Bat logo dress.
I never knew there were THAT many Martinis available. My very limited martini dictionary consists only of Lychee martini, Chocolate martini, Tiramisu Martini and those that comes with the yucky olives! Urgh.
Kat took this picture of me, while i was taking a break.
Funny enough, i saw quite a number of people that i've met from work. Amazing that Singapore is really THAT small.

Friday
I miraculously arrived for work earlier than expected. Since i had waaay too much time to spare, might as well take some pictures with this new uniform! Want to make a guess what uniform i'm wearing?! Tee heeee hee..
The colors alone are a dead giveaway!
It's Heineken! Uniform is Air stewardess inspired, but i feel more like a present sitting under the christmas tree. With that huge bow on my neck, how could i not feel like a present?!
But still, it's cute! i've always enjoyed wearing Heineken's uniform, and at least it is different from the draught keg promotion uniforms that Da and i have worn to death!

That's all for now! hope no one got blinded from this narcissistic entry of mine.
xoxo!

psst! I'm sisterless for the next 3 weeks! Da has officially migrated over to New York for SMU's Business Studies trip. Yay! a room to myself for 3 whole weeks!
That, and i also need suggestions of what i could get her to buy for me from NY!

mambo performance video

Posting up the video... it took a freaking long time to get this up la!!!
I can spot a million and one mistakes that i made, but i still think it's a pretty good performance anyway! Hah!
and if i were you, i'll ignore annabel francis's shrilly voice and stop the video after that! :D



clap! clap! clap! clap!
That's what the clappers are for anyway!

Clap! Performance at Far East

Last Friday's performance for Street Clap! At Far East Plaza turns out to be pretty fun! I actually spent more time dressing up than performing, and this time, i had evil eyes! The fiercest of the lot - i'd say (what to do.... my eye's the smallest amongst the 3 of us.. hurhurhur)
I made the most mistakes during the performance, and i guess as usual, i could have been alot better :D But definitely a good experience!
Here we go, pictures, pictures! Group shot of us, the girls looking glam as usual, and the guys *haiz* looking anything but glam.

John and I - our first time performing together as partners.. My strange jump, i was supposed to fly.... but alas, i thought he wanted me to jump! But looks kinda cool eh? This shot looks a little weird here, but that was exactly what John wanted me to do, only to kick higher...and the camera wasn't quick enough to capture me in a better jump pose, so you would really have to view the performance to kinda understand what i'm trying to do here... What's a performance without audience right? I'm pleased to know that many people who matter turned up! For starters, there's Mommy who turned up with the little brother, and my sister who turned up with Mark !
I was so excited about the performance that i forgot to take a picture with my family la! :( . Family aside, there's also Mr Wibowo, a.k.a Aditya....
He was my official videographer for the performance.. Gary.. Of course he has to be here la! What's our performance going to be like, without Gary the instructor, chereographer, the monster who made us repeat over and over and over again during practise, the guy who made the performance happened!
So we have Mr Macho who's attempting to act cool/throw a punch at a very pleased Daphne..
Lynn! She's helped to point out all the silly mistakes that i make during our trainings together.. :D and all the others from the En Motion that made it there, like Jaymz, who also contributed his camera and took a video of our performance,
Sally, who gave us a lift from studio to Far East!
Eddie, who helped and gave pointers to us pre performance, and there's also Charmaine with her boyfriend, and another lynn, thank you for dropping by!
Im more than thrilled to see everyone there! Thank you! Muah!!

Performance may be over in a matter of minutes, but i brought home a huge lump of bruise as a sourvenir, a hug bruise behind my left calf! Can you see it? I think i must have kicked myself really hard in the calf during practise when we were attempting the stunt! You can even see the scratch mark that my heel left. It hurts!!! Meeeh! It's slowly fading away though..
I sneaked 3 cute clappers that clap! They were giving them out during the performance, so i helped myself to the clappers?!
I spent most of the time playing with the clappers at the back stage, and it kinda drove everyone nuts from it. Hee, I'll like to blame it on the adrenaline rush..but there's a few people who'll like to rebut my adrenaline excuse...
but who cares? *smirks*

tankie craze + mobile blogging

Hahhaha!
I finally managed to get these pictures posted up via the new phone - with a huge help from my laptop. *makes disgusted face*
Turns out that my starting attempt in mobile blogging is NOT as easy as how the smarties behind the creation of mobile blogging would like it to be, and in case tech geek do not understand the hint, must simplify it to ----> Hello there! mobile blogging is NOT as user friendly as it ought to be la! So much more potential in improving the services!
Now that i have the phone and the lap top sitting in front of me, i might as well be less retarded and blog with the laptop instead! The phone has already contributed like 80% to my emotional outburst from frustrations for the last 2.5 days.

As mentioned, the picture were posted up using the cellphone, and i'm pretty impressed!
Was ironing my never ending pile of clothes (strangely enough, i actually enjoy ironing), and i got pretty amused at my collection of Tank tops!

Digressing alittle first, i do realise that i havent been doing anything interesting lately - it's full of salsa practise, work, eat and sleep. Boo hoo hoo...
The reason why i'm practising so hard is because, i'm scheduled to perform for street CLAP! (click on clap! for more information of the other venues, dates and time of other performances) this coming friday, do drop by if you are free!

Venue: Far East Plaza outdoors
Date: 4 July 2008
Time: 7-9

This would be my very first time performing on behalf of En Motion Dance Studio, and the thought of it is making me a tad nervous! Which also kinda explains for the boring clothes phase that i am into now.. because all i do is keep attending trainings! Hahhaha.

Well going back to my picture topic... meet the Zara basics!
Wanted to get them in green as well, but they ran out of sizes.... so we have black, khaki grey, black and blue.

Placing them together, they look like the colors of a flag eh?
Next in line would be the cuter version of tank tops.
All the same design and cut, only different fabric. Bought them mostly from Bugis Village, and Da contributed to a few from her Bangkok trip - so she's also got a similar pile of similar tankies! :D

Then ironing on, i realise dawned upon me that part of the reason why both Da and i have wardrobe storage problem is because we both have a knack for buying up stuff in more than 1 color, and for me, it is especially so for white basics! I have a ton of them in various cuts!

and yet another realisation, that all the clothes that i've posted today are all in VERY boring colors! Oh well.. will update soon, and hopefully with pictures of the Street Clap! performances!
It is currently dinner + lie down time before i head over to studio for my last practise before the performance.

~ lalala

testing!

I'm logged onto my new phone, attempting to blog , and so far so good, except for a few problems. Firstly I cannot seem to be able to locate the bar and link to post up pictures, secondly I think I might just create multiple holes on my LCD if I make this a long entry ! haha! and til I figure out a way to post pictures online, this should be about it.xoxox

salsa chalet 2 + summer splash!

Saturday
It was a stroke of luck that i managed to attend Attitude Dance Studio's Summer Splash event! I wasn't supposed to be able to attend it, but i did!!!
The event was planned in conjuction with Spin City - The studio that Sharon Pakir founded, and they were passing by Singapore for the Malaysian Salsa Festival!
As the hosting studio, my dearest salsara Dalena was performing, and i managed to catch 2 of her performance!
My little sister's improved so much over the years! *dabs glistening eyes with a tissue*
Awwww.. (besides she's not so little anymore hmpf... taller than me somemore! >:( )
So here's some pictures that she's taken for the event...
I was too hot and sweaty from the malfunctioning aircon at Upper Club to remember to cam whore!
Her camera was misty/sweaty from the heat as well!

Pictures of Adi and i, and the entire place was soooooo hot, Adi had to steal a glass of ice from the bar to shut me from whining! There you go, a happy ice crunching Daphne with her glass of ice!

Monday
Went for Salsa Chalet, and the chicken kebabs that i did were decent, but could be alot tastier!
Cherri's mom did some Durian crepe dessert that were to die for! Then there's also Charmaine's walnut muffin with chocolate chips sprinkled on it + fried bee hoon that her mom made! Yums! Ricky brought his infamous chicken fried rice along, and we now know why his dog - Rocky is shedding fur! Hahahah! John brought along some finger food, and Audrey contributed her blue cheese with water cracker - which i think i ate the bulk of it!
We also had a good time playing with the prawns that i brought.... bringing varieties like vodka apeach prawns - cheese blanketing the prawns and *blinks* normal prawns loh.

The guys - mainly John and Adi finished the 5Litres Heineken Draught Keg that i contributed, and went on to finish nearly the entire bottle of Vodka Apeach + 1/4 remnants of Vodka Mandarin. We kept taking retarded picture with the likes of this!
Since i like this best.... i shall post it up! :D
I came home from the chalet with a sore throat, cough, and lost track of time with all the lost sleep that i tried to recover!

Well i think i should be sleeping normal by tonight!
Heading over to studio for dance training soon... ZzzzZZ..

Mangled Chicken!

I'm due to head over to the east for a chalet.... and since the chalet organiser had a surprise paper to sit for at the very last minute, i've decided to take over the reign and deal with the food!

I've chosen to potluck caramelised pineapples, stuffed mushrooms, chicken and vegetable kebab for the barbeque, not forgetting 1 kg worth of prawns! Yums!
Well mommy was nice enough to help me clean up those smelly prawns, but i'm not quite sure why she didnt offer assistance for the chicken fillet!
Deboning 2 pieces of foreign bone that's embedded in the fillet x 3 is such tough work, that i spent a total of 2 hours in the kitchen hacking and sawing away at the wishbone looking thing, and the cartiledge tailbone looking thing of the chicken!

I swear it's nature's way of telling me that i definitely lack the necessary talent in kitchen affairs la! I used 3 different methods to hackle at that bone thingies in the fillet, in hope that i'll find a one good method to use for future references, but alas! My right arm's sore and i've yet to get any conclusion!

My hands stinks, despite using a plastic bag as a make shift glove! Gah! How I hate to handle raw meat! I think i might just stick to vegetarian dishes in future!
I'm not stingy, i'm just not talented!

I ransacked the entire kitchen for spices, sauces and miscellaneous herbs to marinate my chicken, and now as i sit and blog, i sure do hope that the chicken would turn out fine... :S
I think i should go to bed, and wake up early to skew the meat, mushrooms and fruits onto the sticks!


*ok, i just related my sad kitchen experience to mommy and aside from being horrified that her kitchen's been ransacked, she just reckoned that she should have left the prawns for me to deal with too, so that i would appreciate her more! *frowns*

Well at least my kitchen endeavour seem amusing to the brother, as he listened to the conversation while getting ready for school. Well, Yay! At least i'm done with school! Woots!

Mahogany brown and sashimi

Apart from working my ass off, i have also been busy making the most out of my spare time (not much actually)! There's movies, food, food, and more food, and pool sessions and dance sessions... *yawn*
Picture updates of my whatever ventures..
A random shot of Quacks and i some time back before heading out... think we were going to catch Narnia~ Prince Caspian. Meet the new super model posing for a lippy shot!
Hahahha! Here we have Quacks posing gamely, after testing out my newly bought lipgloss!
Hurhurhur! Nice!
Next in line would be my new obsession - the sashimi phrase that i'm currently into.
Kept lugging Adi for various sashimi feast.
Looking at that picture platter is making me salivate!
Well we went for this japanese buffet that is located somewhere near studio, and my, my! I love fishes, and we ate at least 3 of that platter, along with a huge pot of Shabu Shabu, and many whatnots like the normal chawanmushi, california handrolls, agedashi tofu etc... but the hightlight of the meal was really the Sashimi la!

Sashimi again! This came along with my Sukiyaki Set that i ordered.
Japanese restaurant #2! This one's just right smack at the ground floor of Union/Amara Shopping center. I took a bite at the pretty daisy looking chrysanthemum and it's bitter! Urgh!
Pretty things never taste good?

That's about all the exciting food that i've ventured with Adi for now... and Quacks was supposed to accompany me to En. Must announce here, so that he'll remember to bring me there soon! *salivates more*
*

Was working at Clark Quay on Saturday night, and i decided to stop by Nectarie after work to get myself breakfast for Sunday morning, since i had to wake up early to attend dance training at 10am, i should make my day a happy one!

Guess what i bought for breakfast?
Say Hello to my little pretty square of Caramelised Banana Cake! The cake sat in my tummy and made me happy for the entire morning, while i danced away!

Sunday was definitely one of the most gruelling day i've ever lived through for the past 25years! 10am - 5pm worth of dancing, in preparation for the coming Clap! Performance! I swear my hands and legs turned into jelly!

After training, a handful of us decided to drop by the Botanical Gardens to watch the Tango Concert that John, Lynn, and Zie performed in!
Making my way in and out of the place was such hard work, as garden navigation is leg power heavy, as we have to walk up winding paths and roads. Luckily the performance was good! Way to go!!! Leaving the place was the worst as Adi, Ricky, Audrey and i walked out from #51 Nassim Hill, and emerged from #1 Nassim Hill 15 mins later. It took me 2 Timeout Chocolate bars to keep up with the walking, coz i was on the verge of collapsing from the lack of sugar/carbohydrates!

If i ever have the money, i'll buy myself an apartment at #3 Nassim Hill, this little establishment called Jade. It's the closest to civilisation, and the place has got pretty window shutters, and the peace that i like without being too far away from town! yippers!

I was ravenous by the time i sat down to eat my dinner!
Thinking of all that walking, makes me shudder!
*
Looking at this picture, my hair made me look like a dirty little monkey! Disheveled and unkempt hair! My root color was starkingly obvious against my old caramel blonde highlights, it grew by at least 3 inches la! No good! Meet my new haircut and color! Gabriel gave me bangs and Mahogany brown! Wanted to be a brunette, but brown with a yellow tinge never looks good on me, as it does not really flatter asian skin. :( So warm brown it shall be :D
And before i end off, here's my little pix!e darling! Still cute and dainty like always! Woots!
Byebye for now!

Silence is comfortable.

silence is comfortable.
That's my new favourite thing to say recently!
After like a million and one topics, i somehow manage to steer the conversation and make it end at that.
I am amused.

grumbles of an unemployed/shopaholic.

Now that i'm done with school, i get annoyed with all the job naggings that i get from various individuals.
Freaking irritating la!

Short of the fact that there might be a job that you think would be suitable for me or mayb i might have an inkling of an interest, it's wise just to leave me out of the crappy nagging, for i am a big believer of getting a job that i enjoy or like, rather than to get a job for the sake of getting a job, and just so that i'll be able ot chuck a name card at people's face. WTF!

and for christ sake, a job is a personal thing, so quit sticking your face into my personal life!

However, i do appreciate the well wishers who've been more than encouraging, giving me leads on jobs that i might find fulfilling in life.. Thank you. Muah!
*
I've been working my ass off this week, and i'd say that i haven't really gotten much of a life, nor time to meet up with anyone in particular, but it sure beats being bored to death! In fact, i miss the days when i get to slack, bum around and sew a piece of something up! :D

Working at Harry's got me started on the song Constant Cravings by K.D Lang.
The band there sang it, and next thing you know, i kept humming it everywhere i go.
The last time i did such persistent humming would be Mindcircus by Way out West after i was done with a Zouk event by some Guest DJ.
I think it's time that i lay my hands on the song... tsk tsk tsk.
*
It's the Great Singapore Sale and the loots for grabs are lacklustre! I cannot understand how anyone can be remotely excited about the sale, because it's yawningly (if there's even such a word) boring. What ought to be bought has already been bought, so what is there to look forward to during the sale?

Firstly, half the time, things that i lust for at the sale only comes in insanely large sizes, of which only the bigger sized girls can whoop with joy seriously. By bigger size, i'm referring to not only the L and XL but shoe sizes as well?

But must definitely stress the fact that i am thankful for being the average sized girl, and i am merely whining for the sake of whining, and i'd better be able to find a damn good way to earn more money to pay for all that full price shopping that i highly covet.

Secondly how many of the same dress shape can a girl bring herself to buy? Take the baby doll and trapeze dress for example, It's driving me insane with their variety of colorblocks, eyelets, and ugly prints, the whole of Bugis village and Far East is ridding them by pricing them for less than $10 a piece! Hahaha about time they cleared those away anyway.

Those high waist pants and skirts are next. Not that they are ugly but the smockings added behind to create a good fit is appalling! Somehow smockings is added into just about every thing, and somehow makes the outfit look damn cheap. Gah! All that countless dress that look so promising in the front, ends up disappointing me at the back! Which reminds me alot about human as well! Hahahah!

I think i should just leave the grumbling to another day and use the time to do something more constructive, and I think i might sew myself a belt today!
Lala!

Woots! Hello Miss Graduate

Yay!!! Check this out!
I passed! Woots!!!! Hahahahha
Not the best and most fantastic results on earth, but it's definitley a good achievement!
I've been waiting for like FOREVER to graduate la!!!
WootS!
Cant help grinning from ear to ear.
Hello Miss Graduate, here i come!

Shucks! It's judgement day tomorrow!

It's barely a blink ago when i last cleared off my papers, and in yet another blink of the eye, it's my judgement day tomorrow - the day when i'll know if i'd graduate or stay back in school for another grueling semester of repeated subjects. I hate post exams jitters - it creates too much stress for me. :(

I dont want to be a student anymore! So please please, let me pass all my subjects this semester!
Worries aside, I'm not done enjoying my holidays yet!!!
*
The month of May, is a special month!

It is the birthday month of a few individuals who are rather important to me..
In accordance to the dates,

Quack Quack!
Happy Birdday!
Thank you for being there for me rain or shine, and all the shirts that i've ruined when i cry. You mean more than words could justify.
and i sure hope that you like your present! I spent lots of time, dilema and leg muscles getting you your present despite exams. *makes angry face*
Hahhahaha

Next in line we have Ben!
Dude! Finally a decade of friendship! Awww we sound so old.
For all the countless time you bailed me out when i crashed and burned! *hugs*

For the occassion, we headed over to Waraku as i was going through my japanese food phrase/craze to gorge ourselves silly as usual.I look more pleased with my food...

than he does... oh well.I ordered some paper pot soup set, and he ordered some udon i think?
There was the additional yakitori thing that wasnt too good though.. and i think someone got high on the drinks... and it definitely wasn't me!

On a seperate account, we visited Nectarie Le' Dessert Patisserie after i finished work one dandy night... The cakes there is to die for!
I chose a white and dark chocolate mousse cake coated with chocolate fudged topped with a pretty gold leaf!

and a caramelised banana cake!
Ooooh! Delicious! I personally prefer the caramlised banana cake better, because there was crunchy bits added into the base of the cake to create texture, while the other reason is because i'm not much of a dark chocolate eater - have always preferred white chocolate alone.
After i was done with the chocolate cakes, i couldnt taste my iced tea anymore. :S

The nectarie also serves savoury food, and being ravaneous as usual, i ordered a mushroom quiche, and the soup of the day - cream of mushroom, and also a roast beef sandwich! ( Since i was the hungry one, i walloped most of the food, while Ben mostly tasted. )

In short, it's a must visit place, the food there is made with tender loving care!
The soup of the day served, was not your typical commercialised "tin can" soup from campbells!
I heart soup that doesnt come out from tin cans! After all, why should i pay money for tinned cans soup while eating out, when i can achieve the same quality standard when i'm starving and stranded at home?

The quiche and roast beef sandwich were decent too, but in Ben's words, "you could tell that effort in the food from the way the onions were caramelised." Well i would not know (seeing that i am never one who spends much time in the kitchen, lest to even attempt to create caramelised onions?).

It was just a little disappointing that i did not get to taste their Tiramisu. *pouts*
Tiramisu is like my staple dessert la!
*
Audrey's turn!
Adi came up with this bright idea to bake Audrey a flower pot birthday cake!
Hahaha i must agree that it sounds like fun!
He was incharge of the cake bits, while i, became incharge of the decorating/flower bit!

My initial plan was to make a marzipan flower, which then evolved into a caramel flower, and lastly a paper flower.
What can i say? That I've always been more talented with paper mediums than cooking materials? Spending hours in the kitchen left me screaming in anguish, pain, cursing with impatience, and ending with lots of burned pots and scrubbing to do!

and the 2 paper flower ( Noo it's NOT an origami paper, mind you) took me 15mins to complete. -_-"
*
On a whim and fancy, Quacks and i ventured to a fish spa and got our legs nibbled..... by Fishes!
Eek!
I was ticklish, and squirmish at the start, and the fishes attacked my foot like there's no food tomorrow!

When i calmed down and started to relax, i had a ball of fish on each foot, but it was an interesting but expensive experience. $18 for 15mins of being fish food, because i refused to sign up the package! The stupid sales lady kept hackling on and on and on about the joys and perks of taking up the package. It was such an annoying experience (the lady, not the fishes), and it definitely killed the joys off being fish food. Gah! A second step of rebelling, i refuse to link up to their website, or recommend their store to anyone. However, if you MUST know, EMAIL ME and i shall let on.

Hot floral tea served at the fish spa place...

That's all for now.... geeky daph bades everyone farewell and continues to worry about her results....and continues to iron her never ending pile of clothes...
there's more in the store room - that pile captured is just 1/8 of what i intend to wear soon... :(
