you've got to try it to believe it

i've always been a fan of English Breakfast and wild honey serves one of the best of it in town :)

extravagant yet cozy setting & thumbs up to the impeccable service .

i totally wouldn't mind forsaking mac breakfast for this .

definitely gonna bring my boy and nia for brunch when they are available again .

the best of the best - English breakfast , imo :)

the hottest in the bold colours for the summer :)

love her svelte figure . the most perfect figure this summer!

dont you think i have the most adorable lyla in the world ?

totally in love with this shot of her <3

last 2 days of taipei

just received a call from my botak boy and i'm so glad that he's adapting (& surviving ) well in camp. i seriously can't wait to see him after eighteen days ( holy moly !! ) that would be on the 18th and we would spend a few days of quality time together before he's off to camp AGAIN. welcome to the army boy's girlfriend club. i finally understood what rach and vann's going through. weekends are so precious and strictly non working days because it's the only days they get to see their botak boys men .

it's a lil late but better late than never. spent four days at taipei :) four days of good food, sightseeing , quality time with yongkun and four NON TUITION DAYS. those times were so precious to me . when i came back from taipei, i lost all determination and diligence to head for tuitions but i'm glad that i'm back on track again. i want to see my kids do well and enrol into better schools :):) unfortunately , i have to drop some of them because i have been struggling my schedule so bad and this parent made things quite difficult for me hmmm.

third day of taipei - YEH LIU PARK

i love that place a lot . it would have been a lot better if it was so scorching hot. i thought singapore was hot but summer in taipei is a lot worse. my previous trips were mainly shopping trips so i really looked forward to sightseeing this time round. pretty surroundings, mesmerising scenery = massive camwhore time . kun's momma always bring her DSLR out so i decided to purchase my camera after the trip :)

i would have love the place a lot better if it wasn't for the weather. kun was perspiring so profusely that i have to wipe his forehead almost every other minute. i felt so sticky and uncomfortable and it didn't help that the place was far away from the hotel. after dinner, we settled for lunch at this nice seafood restaurant . the food's so awesome and that explains why i came back with a rounder face .

the juicy honey peaches which we brought back ! this is the first time ever that i actually brought fruits back ( under the encouragement of kun's momma ) i was rather reluctant to at first since it's quite bulky but it was too tasty and juicy to be missed. i wanted mom and bro to try them so i bought a carton of 5 back . the taxi driver actually stopped by the road to let us purchase the fruits. fyi, it is a makeshift stall right in the middle of nowhere . like a fruit stall just next to a long stretch of highway. i was appalled .

after which we went to jiufen ! it's not a place meant for apparel shopping but more of home grown food and snacks. there were so many stalls selling pineapple tarts , mochi and many other xiao chi . wo ai tai wan xiao chi ! :) competition is pretty intense over there. the peeps tending the store will persuade you to try their products and offer to throw your litter ( there are hardly any bins around and people have to carry their rubbish so this is like a personal service extended to you , hoping you would buy ) the people are really friendly though. like if you dont buy they wont curse and swear at you like in hongkong. they are ready to help you with directions and all. speaking of which, there were so many stalls and we tried sooo many pineapple tarts, mochi and etc till we were damn full.

after jiufen , we headed to this temple which is supposedly famous . i'm not too sure but i was just following the adults.

yong kun's dad with the super nice taxi driver with superb customer service. he brought us around at a minimal fee and politely declined to have a meal with us. he even loan us his spare phone so that we could contact him as and when we are done with that particular stop. got off the taxi to make sure that the fruit stall holders dont exploit us with the prices. when we got off the car, he will take the trouble to take the fruits from the boot to put them in the car to cool. when we come back to the vehicle, he would hurriedly take the cartons of fruits to the boot to make space for us. he did it 3-4 times and we were really touched by his service.

mangoes ! my favourite fruit amongst them all.

love the fruits over there. they are so fresh and juicy .

the dorky boyfriend carrying a yellow umbrella :p

:):) till the next!

snippets of taipei :)

i've finally visited taipei :) love almost everything there - the people , the street food , bubble tea but not the weather or fashion oops. there are so many bubble tea stores down the street . singaporeans have to queue for koi/gong cha here unlike in taipei. we ordered a large cup and small cup for only 80twn ( approx 3.40 sgd ) . i'm awaiting pictures from kun's momma to blog about it . meanwhile, something funny ( to me ) to share with all !

in taiwan they allocate two priority seats on the side for the needy.

the locals call it 'bo ai wei'

kun was arguing how he's actually entitled to this seat.

1) on the top left : he's holding onto a 'walking stick ' . it's pouring that day and he has to carry the unfoldable umbrella from the hotel .

2) on the top right : he's so fat that his tummy sticks out like a pregnant lady. there were so many samples and street food that we over indulge all the time.

3) on the bottom left : his feet is very big. so big that he couldn't get his shoes at wufenpu a few times because he couldn't fit into the largest size there. LOL.

4) on the bottom right : he's with his baby ( that's me <3<3 )

cute or what? :):):)

my outfit for the first day . absolutely loving my pleated skirt but it's way too hot man. glad it protected my legs against the heavy sun though :)

summer with chloe and gracia

been seeing gra almost every other day. it's insane

though i'm certainly not complaining.

loving this summer . taking quirky pictures and HTHT anytime .

don't ever want the season to end :(

P.S 6 more days to taiwan!

no reason to be angry with God.

i think i'm enlightened. i've been high and happy these days. i think i haven't been this happy and contented for a long long while. although random flashbacks of the horrible papers still haunt me , they dont bother me as much now. i'm so happy working , earning money and living life to the fullest. i wish i wasn't so busy though , so i could have more time to meet my dearest pals. anyway, i took up this telemarketing job in order to see gra and chloe. when i'm already so damn busy. it's insane but meeting them really makes me happy. it's like we have endless stuffs to share about. i could actually look at gracia straight in the eyes, when she's doing her freaking gross dance. when i think of her ithinkof her CB dance . ( you girls will know why :p ) & lyla's gonna be sharing jobs with me! i'm so happy that i've finally managed to get her working for her own money.

another reason as of why i've been happy ; GREAT SINGAPORE SALES

love travel size minis :)

i love my job at insing because it's so slack and it's all about shopping? i love how i could plan my timetable and work for 2 hours and get paid for 8 hours exclusive of transport fee :) what could have been a better job ? though it's lonely and i could have gotten 2 bucks/hour more if they didn't have to go through recruit express. WHY. SO STUBBORN SINGTEL?! i was doing my rounds at plaza singapura when i saw the body shop atrium sale ! been waiting for it for the longest time. they used to have it every now and then but not sofrequent this year. i love their tea tree products and my skin is so much clearer now . i've also been looking high and low for seamless undergarments now. the ones i got from pierre cardin suck because it's seamed on the waistband and that would mean visible waistband which is so not cool ? thank god there are more and more seamless undergarments now and more new styles on the market ~
