Friends Reunion

After 10 years I finally meet up with my friends that we used to hang out together. Those days we were inseparable, we attend the same school, skipped class together, party in clubs every night, get drunk, fall in and out of love together, nursed each others wound.
We were the young and restless bunch, we made silly mistakes together luckily we always have each other. I missed those days, those silly moments of fun and laughter, those were the days that we worry about nothing else but relationship matters.
Tracy, Tabitha and Me, three musketeers.

When we met up with them, I am surprised that after 10 years my dear friends did not change at all. They are still the same person that I knew 10 years ago. Fun loving as ever, crazy, loud and very chatty!

We went to Hot Stones at Clark Quay for dinner, ordered a bottle of Resling and started reminiscing the past. There were many things I could not remember, but when Tracy talked about the events that happened, my 'portable' memory drive suddenly came back!

Great food and great company and my favourite Resling.




KTV at Party World at Liang Court.


It was a wonderful night, we will create more new memories the next time we meet up!

Breakfast with Tina at Oomphatico's

Took leave yesterday and met up with Tina for breakfast at Oomphatico's at Tanglin Mall. Since Christmas last December, we could not find time to meet up with each other. Though it was a short 2 hours, I really enjoyed myself.
She just came back from Paris with her husband, it was her long awaited holiday since she had Brayden 2 years ago. Like all mothers, it was difficult to part with the little one therefore she couldn't find a chance to travel. Finally with the help and commitment from her mother and maid she manage to relive her "honeymoon" again with her husband. Actually it was her shopping trip, she planned to go to all her favourite boutiques everyday in Paris.
This year is a good year to go Europe as the currency is lower compared to last year. During breakfast she showed me the goodies she got herself in Paris. It was very tempting and how I wished I could fly over to Paris immediately. I definitely have to go there again!

This photo makes me hungry every time I look at it. They serve very good breakfast at a reasonable price!

Our breakfast cost about $36.00 in total, looking forward to go there again!

Gift exchange with Tina

This will be my last post about Christmas 2009. Last year was a great year for me, I thank god for blessing me and my family. Christmas is a time for giving, I sincerely believe that and practice it by buying presents for all my family. On Christmas eve I was still doing last minute shopping at Takashimaya and Ion Orchard to sniff out the best deals in town. I spent almost all my 13th month salary on buying presents alone. No regrets as it was all worth it!

I had a mini gift exchanged with Tina on Christmas night, before the gift exchange, we told each other what we wanted. Tina wanted a key pendant from Tiffany and Co., and I wanted a little pouch that can contain cards and coins. Therefore we agreed to fulfill each others wish list.

Even though we already knew what we will be getting, we were still very excited about it!

The gifts, its when Tiffany meets Prada!

Tina chose this pink Prada pouch for me, isn't this a yummy looking color? I totally love it!

This was the key pendant that Tina has been eying for. I was worried that I chose the wrong design and even checked with her over the phone while I was at the store before purchasing it.

The evidence for our love for Chanel.

Natalie's 2 Year's Old Birthday

Wanted to upload this post in December but I have been real busy with work and work. But I really want to share this post with my fellow blog friends that have never given up on me. Though I may not be as religious as before on blogging, some of you still send me encouragement to tell me not to stop blogging. I am sincerely touched by kind words from you, really! Through blogging I even got to know a few of you and our friendship continued on Facebook!

Just few weeks ago we celebrated Natalie's 2 years old birthday at home. I invited a few close friends and colleagues to share this happy moment with me. Thank you everyone for showing up, your presence meant a lot to me and my family. It's through times like this that made me realised who is sincere and who cares for me. Actually I didn't plan to have this celebration, I wanted a simple celebration just with my family. I knew that Natalie will not be enjoying herself as she disliked crowd. I went ahead with the celebration because my friend encouraged me to, I never regretted that decision. I enjoyed myself and I am sure my guests enjoyed themselves too.


My good friend Tina and her son Brayden. We wanted a photo with our both our children together for the longest time and finally it happened! Brayden is a chubby and cute little boy, he is a few months older than Natalie.

Natalie's birthday cake has a set of train toy as decorations, apparently the boys were more attracted to the cake than Natalie. As for Natalie as usual, she still disliked crowds and didn't take the celebration too well. My friend Karen's son helped blew the candles for Natalie. :)


My lovely colleagues, I really like this photo, it has all the ladies I like in it.

This is the Best Photo of that day, Natalie was definitely the centre of attraction in this photo. Seem like she was actually posing for the camera!

My precious little girl, mummy loves you so much!

I got to know Tina shortly after I gave birth to Natalie. Glad that our friendship blossomed!

This is another of my colleague, Diana. She was the last to arrive, but it's better late than never. Thank you for making and effort to come.

So that was it, another year has passed. Natalie is 2 and each and everyday I treasure my moment with my girl. Every time she makes me laugh, she calls me mummy, mama, and each time it melts my heart. I love her so much!

21st December, Natalie's One Year Old party

Finally, after all the preparation and the leg work, it's over. The party was a success, the buffet was great. Very nice presentation, superb quality, unqiue dishes. The birthday cake was delicious and yet not very sinful. It's not Chocolate, it was Mango Cream from COVA. Most of the guests enjoyed the food and the cake. Well the kids got their fair share of fun as well, they weren't neglected as Jeff had party packs for them to get self entertained while their parents enaged in adult conversations. lol. Also kids were attracted to the cupcakes that were surrounding the birthday cake.
I am glad that I had this party, I am pleased with myself, I chose the right cake, cupcakes, decoration, buffet orders. I am glad that I have invited my colleagues, they were very enthusiastic about this party and they stayed almost till the end. Very sporting! I like! Even though I only know them for about 8 months, they showed their kindness and appreciation to me and my family members. Thank you very much, little actions like this touched me a lot.

Did not have much photos taken, not much of a regret but it was a pity that I didn't have a few photos taken with my good friend, Geraldine and her boyfriend Desmond. SIgh... I guess I was too happy chatting with her that I forgot about camera whoring her! Anyways she will understand, right? lol I will blog about Nat's birthday and then another time, I will blog about our Batam trip hor!

2 Weddings

It has been a rough week, meetings, conferences, weekend duties, dead line for sales report, and 2 wedding dinner invitations on the same week. I had to be on duty at IMH on Thursday alone. My company was one of the sponsors for their APPRC congress and therefore we had to "Jargar" the booth and introduce our company's drug to overseas doctors and nurses that came for the congress. When I stated on my facebook that I was at IMH, one of my friend was shocked and asked me why I was there. Maybe he thought that I was mentally ill, maybe he thought I suffered post natal blues... hahahaha Mervin, don't worry I am perfectly fine. Anyways, luckily Paul was on duty there too and we kept each other company that day.

That Saturday I was very excited as I was going to bring Natalie to attend my friend's wedding dinner. It was Marilyn's wedding and was held at Merchant Court Hotel. I brought Natalie along to meet up with her mummy's friends, and true enough she was very popular that night. We didn't stay till the end of the dinner and left only when they were serving the 4th course. Too bad, as Natalie needed to head back home for her sleep.

The beautiful bride, Marilyn Chan and me. Welcome to monogamy and hope to hear good news soon!

Natalie and her god mother, Geraldine. Her boyfriend kept saying that Natalie was very cute. Could tell that he loves baby a lot. Hope to attend their wedding dinner soon so that they can proceed to the next stage of life. Natalie needs a friend, so don't let her wait too long ok.

My little princess and me. I brought this bustier dress from Lavender, located at Stamford Road.

Family photo.

My good friend Geraldine.

Me, Apple and Geraldine. That was the first photograph of the 3 of us together after so long.

Natalie playing with the cutlery on her baby high chair.

Esther and me.

Immediately the next day, I had to prepare to attend another wedding dinner at Conrad Hotel. I was looking forward to this wedding dinner as Jeff and I held our wedding at Conrad. Wanted to have a feel of being a guest there and re collect memories of our wedding.

Camera whoring in the car, hoping to look my best.

Beautiful ladies of my company.

The bride, Sherli and me. She is so gorgeous! Envy that she is so slim! I wasn't that slim when I was a bride myself.


My lovely and wonderful colleagues. I am happy to be able to work with all of you.

Girls night out

Met some friends from my industry for a quick drink at Balaclava on eve of Children's day, also the eve of Hari Raya. Before going over, I was already drinking at some other places with my colleagues, had a mixture of chinese wine, Red wine, White wine, Champagne and beer... I pretty much enjoyed myself, and the great company that night!

My friends, great company!

Wonderful night, we should get out more often, if time permits me to.

Brought Natalie out on her 1st Children's Day to Kallang Leisure Mall. She was a little grouchy as she didn't take her afternoon nap at first. Only managed to snap a few photos when she was in the car and her sitting on the shopping trolley. The rest of her trip, she was asleep in our arms. Jeff and I had to take turns to carry her while she sleeps. I had muscles cramp after that day...


Natalie and mummy me, with no make up. I am getting lazier these days especially when I am out with my baby girl. I try to minimise all the preparation time shorter so I can spend more time with Natalie.

Isn't she lovely on the shopping trolley? She is my best purchase! hahahaha

Bukit Timah Saddle Club

Haven't been really catching up with friends ever since I entered my new phase in life. I hope I have not neglected my friends. That's why recently I have been arranging for meet ups and drinking session so that I can kill two birds with a stone!

Met up with Geraldine not long ago and we went to Bukit Timah Saddle Club for lunch. Though it was our first time there, we fell in love with the place immediately. Perhaps it was the peace and quiet the place offered us, and a different scenery all together. We were horse glazing the whole afternoon, making our pick on which one we preferred and teasing the horses at our allocated balcony seats. The view was fantastic, we get to see the horses go for their exercise at a ring, gallopping round and round in circles.

Enjoying a lazy afternoon, eating pasta, relaxing and horse gaze and day dream.

Miko enjoyed her afternoon away from all the phone calls and paper work.

The black beauty, I love black horses.

Geraldine and me.

Well we thought that our eyes played a tricked on us when we saw this. How come there was a cow in Horse Saddle?

Yes we were wrong, it was a horse with brow spots on it's white base. hehehe, I felt that it looked weird on the horse.

I stole all the photos from Geraldine's blog as I didn't bring camera that day. Thank you for contributing to the photos gal! Do catch up soon.
