And of late

  • Finally tried the latest Salted Caramel Mocha at Starbucks
  • Finished Fifty shades of grey, can't wait to start on the next 2
  • Watching my new finds: Call the midwife and The new normal while waiting for new seasons of HIMYM, GG, the lying game and the walking dead :/ Personally like both.. Call the midwife is something different from what I usually watch, a series set in East London in 1950s, pretty terrific and interesting! and well, the new normal, comedy series as usual :p
  • Dying with statistics
  • Nine chapters of Performance Management and Compensation to deal with in 5 days for my first mid-term.
  • 2 more working days for the week!
Wish me good luck till then xx

    Faith is believing.

    Weekday dinner after a brain-draining battle with PS and stats in school with the bf :)
    A few snapshots at Tom n Toms coffee in Tahjong Pagar, not much variety I would say. Got myself a Chocolate chip muffin, quite mehh. But they do serve pretzel and bread like in Korea! The day ended with an hour long foot massage treat by the bf, just so I needed it! ^^
    in this comfortable vintage top I got from flea, you wouldn't believe it's XL in size haha
     Tried Sumo Salad for the first time and I like it! Not v filling for my huge appetite so you see me grabbing snacks after that :/

    Now, I am thinking if I should head to the nearest Starbucks to get some work done hmmm..

    Tiong bahru bakery

    There have been a lot of ravings and hype about Tiong Bahru Bakery for a long time..... but I didn't had the opportunity to make my way there until they recently opened one at Raffles City. It is so much more convenient especially since it's near the school :) could even run there to grab some breads before class :p

    Saturday teabreak with rach, ty and fp after my makeup lesson. We ordered a variety of food, from their famous croissant to sandwiches and cakes! I got myself smoked salmon cream cheese sandwich and a cuppa iced Americano to perk myself up, I was dead by midday!! The bakery definitely wasn't stingy in their salmon and salad veggies, totally loveeeeeeeeee it! :)

    my glutton friends!  

    We ordered their lemon curd and chocolate mendiant tart for share. The former was a little tad sour and had very hard biscuit crumbs but I still love it anyway. The latter would be soooooooo much better without apricot inside, definitely not a fan of apricot, just tastes weird with chocolate. Didn't get to try their original croissant but I will someday!

    Decked in my new knit wear I got from sales :D love the brown and cute red collar which gives the vintage feel. Ended my day with 2 cheap loots with Rach from Scape. Say yay to thrift!

    i'm off to clear some work before sleep. forever tired in class this semester :(

    Life's a journey

    Angel-in-us is definitely one of my favourite coffee branch in Korea :) the day before we flew back, we slept so much.... was so tired and maybe because it was raining cats and dogs, too good for us to snuggle in. haha We were lazy to walk about for the last time and ended up using the internet with our laptop for 3 hours, just me and viv :)
    Iced Dutched Latte and Green tea cake which was so goooooooood!!! The cream.. very very sinful but deserves the calories hehe

    Adrian brought the 4 of us to a 'must-try' restaurant for dinner somewhere near Myeong-dong/City Hall in the later night
    sesame paste as starters, really good!!
    BBQ meat!
    Beef & Mushroom Sukiyaki and all the side dishes
    our huge kimchi pancake!
    looking at all these food makes me miss Korea so much! :<

    Gotta goooooo, can't wait for gathering tonight :>
    have a good weekend!

    11.9.12

    Angels are few :)

    Over the weekends, we celebrated my dearest tiny best friend and sherrill's birthday with a large group of my favourite people in the www :) There were a total of 12 of us and we made VIP booking at Ippudo because the birthday girl wanted to try their ramen!

    Table full of Ramens! It was my 3rd visit, I do like their noodles but somehow find it a little too salty for my liking! It would be so much better if there's less sodium! :p
    and cheers to our 9th year of friendship :D they are just special

    In my new LRH cropped embroidery top, love the sunshine yellow! makes me happier looking :D

    with the two birthday girls! :) they gave each of us an awfully chocolate cupcake, so sweet!!!  (which i immediately consumed when I got home at 1plus - *guilty face*)
    Later night at Serenity - coffee, cider, mocktails and laughter. Truly enjoy the companionship of these people :)

     Gonna end here and prepare for my class later till 7pm!
    Have a great week ahead ;) xx
