NYE11

New year’s eve 2011. Now that’s something worth sharing.

You know, i was really looking forward to Chinese New Year this year. Only because i thought it would be something interesting to blog about. It’s the whole idea of wearing pretty new clothes, visiting friends and relatives, angpaus and whatnots.

Sounded like something this blog needs, right?

Well obviously it didn’t work out. I was practically sick for the whole month of January, which includes Chinese New Year. I didn’t have the liberty to consume whatever i want. From Chinese New Year cookies and snacks to alcohol. Not to mention that i was weak and tired most of the time.

You know what, come to think of it.. screw that. Even if i wasn’t sick, my Chinese New Year would still be boring anyways. LOL! /yaoming

So anyway, i figured that my new year’s eve was a lot more interesting compared to Chinese New Year. Mainly because it was a special date that my sister’s boyfriend chose to propose to her. The proposal took about a month to plan. And it wasn’t easy one since we were communicating solely through Whatsapp.


Le suite

The plan was complicated and constantly changing. The month of December was filled with mental stress coming from all directions. Up until the actual proposal was done.

To sum things up, i booked a suite at Hotel Maya and lead my sister to think that it was for our family to stay for the weekend. The truth is, the suite is for the both of them instead. She had no idea that her boyfriend will be coming from Singapore to surprise her with a proposal.

My job was to keep her occupied the whole day. It would’ve been relatively easy to do if it wasn’t for that massive hangover i woke up with that Saturday and my sister causing me mental stress early in the morning.

But the hangover eventually eased up when we checked into the suite that Saturday afternoon. The suite was beautiful. An instant mood lifter.

Fancy toiletries


Best view anyone can ask for on new year’s eve

The suite is perfect for couples. There’s a great view and mirrors at the right places, if you know what i mean. I owe it to Kel Li for hooking me up with such a sweet suite ;)

I tried to keep the room as clean as possible by not throwing my things around. After all my stay there was only temporary until Albert shows up.

Nonetheless, i had one of the most laid back Saturdays ever.

And what would a stay at a hotel be if you didn’t go to the pool.


Hydrotherapy

As the evening approaches, we both returned to our room and got ready for our family dinner.

When it was almost dinner time, i left our room to secretly meet up with Albert at the lobby. I gave him the room key and then it was all up to him.

Let’s just say that after that, everyone was already seated at the dinner table with champagne as the two walked in Maya Brasserie. One of which was my sister with a big shiny rock on her finger :)

While we toasted to the engagement, we also toasted to Pepsi for her birthday. New year’s even will always equals to mummy’s birthday. It’s tradition :)

And we all know what comes after a new year’s eve dinner..

PARTY TIME!

Mr. Nasty – Barsonic Minimix Vol. 5

 
This minimix came up on my iPod just earlier and i realized that i haven’t told you guys how much i like this little fellow over here.

Loving the super combo that starts from Sweet Dreams → Scary Monsters & Nice Sprites → Save the World → Awooga and then finishing it off with Cinema in the end.

It drives me nuts.

I know some of you are curious, but you can actually see what Hoongmao got for me in my previous post. I was wearing it on the day of my actual birthday :)

Birthdays!

Alright it’s time i get around the procrastination and get some real work done around here.

So i’ve been soaking up a lot of me time since the holidays started about a couple of weeks ago. I’m running out of things to do so i figured it’s time to come back crawling to my blog (^□^*)

It’s November now. And it has been officially a month since my 21st birthday. October has got to be one of my favourite months in the year cause both of our birthdays is on October. Double the pleasure, double the fun!

My birthday this year was probably one of the most pampered birthdays i’ve ever had. There wasn’t any fancy soiree or anything, but nonetheless it felt great cause it lasted throughout the whole weekend.

Thursday, 6th October

There’s a couple of food that i’d like to try once in my life and one of them is fugu. The ever so exotic and potentially life threatening puffer fish. Sounds exciting, doesn’t it?

So on the eve of my birthday, Hoongmao took me for dinner at a nice Japanese restaurant at the Hilton that serves fugu.

BUT!

Unfortunately we completely forgot about the fugu and by the time we realized, it was too late. We were already done with our dinner and were too full to eat anything else :(

It’s okay though. At least dinner was still good :)


Mugshots :)


Lamb teppanyaki


Miso soup with lobster (´ε` )


And what’s Japanese without sake :)

Headed over to the newly opened Vertigo at Gardens after

Birthdays and flamings. I really wonder who came up with that. It’s like mandatory to have flamings on birthdays. I think i had two that night.

Also, i popped my first bottle of champagne on my own! Much love to Hoongmao and Jet :)


Jet / Kok “Niekon” Wing

For some reasons, i also got a lot of pats on my head that night. Maybe cause i’m always the youngest around the pack. So for the youngest to finally become an adult well.. i guess i do deserve them pats on my head ( ´ ▽ ` )

Friday, 7th October

I had dinner with my family and some relatives that night. And to Zouk after for some drinks.


BEST. BIRTHDAY. CAKE. EVER!


♡(´ε` )

Seriously kids, flamings are no fun. Unless you’re German or something, then you’ll probably enjoy flamings.

True story.

On a more serious note, i’ve learnt that it’s not about how much can you drink anymore. It’s all about having a good time. I dunno, maybe it’s the “age talk”. Lessons that you learn as you grow older.

There’s nothing cool about drunkards causing a scene. What more if you’re a lady.

But the birthdays and flamings rule still applies though. You gotta have at least one flaming, right?


Balloons from the ladyfriend! ♡

IT’S STILL MY BIRTHDAY! ヾ(@⌒ー⌒@)ノ


Dinner at Brotzeit in courtesy of AhJie and Alberto


Pork ribs


Pork knuckle

And those were just some of the food that we ordered. Ughhh for three consecutive days i was being stuffed like a Thanksgiving turkey. Not saying it’s a bad thing though. It’s good to be showered with food.. and love.

I finally got to try the much talked about mango beer too. Mmm.. Affensaft. It tastes pretty much like plain mango juice, really. Nonetheless, it’s tastes good :)


Cherrybomb ♡

Much much love for my sister and parents. Wouldn’t wanna say too much over here cause i gotta stay a tough cookie. But i’m sure you know how it goes, right :)

Wednesday, 12th October

Brought le panda out for a nice dinner at Leonardo’s on his birthday.

I’m really glad i picked Leonardo’s for dinner. Their service is excellent, the food is really good and the price is reasonable. Until now i still can’t get over their fantastic service. It’s really top notch!


Pig tail minestrone soup


Mine; shoulder loin steak


Le Panda; mixed grill

In case you’re wondering what i got him for his birthday, you can always ask him what time it is. Hint hint ( ´ ▽ ` )

Well that’s about it for now. There’s more to Hoongmao’s birthday celebration but i’ll leave that for next time :)
