moonlighting

Anyone wants some freelance copywriting or editing?
Or you know someone who will want such services?
I want to maximize my resources!

A day in the life of a HDB Tai-tai

Ooh ... I didn't even know there were massage pools in Singapore!
Gosh, it was sooooo good to be pummelled by the water jets.
There was the one that's like a jacuzzi.
And the massage bed (in a pool!) where Caro and I just chilled.
And the walking corridor filled with bubble jets (ha, like the printer) etc....
We should have tried the swan necks but I didn't think I was up to it, thanks to the wakeboarding aches.

Then we segued into an afternoon of enjoyable company and mouth-watering food at Shangri-La.
But before I get carried away about the food ... who was there?
Faith the berfdae gal plus Kai Kong and Yah Lan who brought Annya along too.
And of course, we all swooned over the mini-beauty queen with her mesmerising eyes.

Man, I am thinking of the food now.
Couldn't get enough of the salmon.
And they had 101 varieties of tea!
I'm more of a coffee person, but still, variety always impresses, doesn't it? Hahaha.
Plus, the chocolate in the fondue was ooh la la.

Then, ended off my tai-tai day out with the mandatory shopping and movie! :)

Cornball: "Looks like it's been a frenly weekend."

Went wakeboarding ... and then met up with old frens for a pig out session before we sent Mk off at the airport.
Too tired to elaborate, but I had a good time, and it was real good to catch up.

Have hi-tea and dinner with some other great frens to look forward to tomorrow. :)

i want my own chocolate fountain

I went for the yummiest buffet ever ... chocolate, chocolate and ooh-la-la more chocolate!
The chocolate fountain was 5 levels!
Okei, so I didn't use more than the lowest level to coat my strawberries (which were just-right-sweet, btw).
But still, the aroma as I was walking past the fountain was enough to make me light-headed.
And the orange-chocolate cake ... and the hot chocolate ... and the many other cakes that I cannot even remember names of ...

And you know, the natural high from chocolate really does increase yr pulse rate!
I checked about half an hour later ... my pulse was pumping at 124/min ... beat that!
Gosh, does that mean I never have to exercise ever again?
I can just eat chocs my whole life and run on adrenaline.

Thanks Jae, for the treat and the very enjoyable company.
And for ... well, you-know-what. Hahaha ...

Nicole was in town too, so we met up with her and Darren for "The Banquet" after.
It's really an epic, but almost elegiac in nature.
Full of grandeur and elaborate in the making, but also chock-ful of subtle nuances ...
And I was looking to fill my eye candy quota with Daniel Wu, but somehow I found Zhou Xun even more captivating.
She was gorgeous in her character, and very beautifully vulnerable as the only one who loved without a hidden agenda.
Whereas somewhere towards the end of the show, I can't remember why but I lost respect for Daniel Wu's character. :P

buah gee gu

My gee gu and his family returned from Canada for a visit ... and spent 2 very packed-with-socialising weeks here.
Too many things to do, too little time to take pics!
So you only get to see this, which was taken on the last day, after 4 hrs of karaoke.
It looks like a small clan because there's also my auntie's family, plus my uncle's inlaws, plus their fren's family etc.















They brought much laughter and talk to our place while they were staying here ... so now that they're gone again, the place feels quiet!
Oh well ... I'll see them again in about 2.5 months time! Woo hoo! :)

what do u call yr mum's cousin's daughter?

Little Caleigh fascinated by koi!



















So when we got her to face the camera ... notice her indignant raised eyebrow...














And then, finally ... a full-frontal shot! :)



















She looks mang zang huh?
But surprisingly, she's the most phlegmatic baby I know!
Super obliging and amazing disposition.
It's hard not to swoon over her...

Boasting

Some of you have heard this 10 times, but I'm gonna say it anyway.
I'm going to Vancouver in December!!
And we're planning to spend Christmas on Whistler!!
Woo hoo ... I lurf flying to far-away places.
I wonder how close we'll be to Alaska and the polar bears ...
