In the midst of angpow collection!

I spent Xmas eve at the bf’s friend’s home, and holland V! No photos at holland V though, cos… eh… hmm… I dunno. Oh nevermind.

I realise I don’t take photos at all when I go out while people around me just happily snap away! Why!

But thank goodness there’s Facebook hahaha. All photos below are sneakily koped from my friend’s cam.

Lazy to caption them so thazall! Happy holidays everyone!

Had dinner at La Nonna sometime late November to celebrate Chong Han’s bday. The food itself was a bit disappointing.

The pizza and lamb were not bad, but their mashed potatoes tasted like salt, and risotto tasted like low quality rice with diluted campbell mushroom soup and a lot of pepper. Eurgh ok no more talk about the food. Photos!

Geok Lan, Hui Qi & Hong Zhou.

 
Us at the table!

Yuen She & Chong Han.

Group shot! 

We proceeded to some void deck near Holland V in the fashion of true bengs & lians. We were going to try the wine that Aloy brought back from Australia (a decidedly un-beng/lian activity).

It was good! First time that I actually loved the taste of wine can! It was so smooth and the taste was… aiya ok maybe I shouldn’t expose my noobness by attempting to describe the taste of wine haha.

Us & the legendary wine. It’s in the nondescript-looking box.

 
Geok Lan, Yu Wen & I! Photo supposed to show how red they were. I was the ‘white balance’… but cannot really tell leh.

Went to Chong Han’s place for dessert afterwards but no more photos dunno why. Photographer never do his job. Abrupt end.

I seem to be on a streak of blogging 1 week late… actually scratch that. I just have a habit of blogging late. Eh scratch that again. Aiya I am late for everything.

At the junction on our way to collect the bf’s specs.

 
At Stamford House or something like that.

Pretty vintagey cabinet! Want one of these in my room next time.

Us after collecting the specs.

We had Soup Spoon for dinner again! Upgraded the bun to a naan, haha. It was yums. Trashes Al-Ameen’s, which is sad cos it’s kind of like having a random Egyptian dude who can cook char kway teow better than the uncle downstairs.

 
Said naan and soup.

Oh and my attempt at “photography”:

Pink clouds!

The end!

Last weekend was spent buying atas specs for the bf at some atas place near Raffles City. Cost him $800+. I heart pain for his wallet but he says it’s an investment… mmkays.

 
This guy feels rich.

We went to Soup Spoon for dinner after numerous pokes from me about it. I don’t think he was as hyped up about having soup for dinner as I was (I ♥ soup spoon deep deep), but that’s just cos he’s indifferent to food in general. Everything seems to be a differently-priced bowl of bak chor mee to him. Ha… T_T

Drinking stew and chunky creamy soups always makes me feel like it’s wintertime and I’m having warm soup while it’s snowing outside or something hee. It feels very comforting. 我喜欢!

 
Chicken cassarole soup.

Other than the soups, I love is their caesar salad. Quite honestly, it’s not as good as those I’ve had at other places… but eh… oh well?

 
Not *the* yums but still yums.

The meat jerky bits may have something to do with it. Ps. Photo of soup was taken with my camera, and salad with bf’s DSLR. The difference makes me feel like throwing my camera away. T_T

Photo below is for teh lulz. Completely unacceptable expression when all I’m doing is looking at my bowl of soup.

My expression is of genuine confusion wtf. With a dash of incredulity. I seem to be saying to the soup,

o.O …zhun bo.

(Singlish translation: Har sure or not. Mai lai. English translation: Seriously? Chinese translation: 真的吗…)

In other news, allow me to introduce the third wheel in our relationship. The camera zzz.

The look of blissful unawareness of my death stare.

That’s how he looks like on our dates nowadays.

Ok ええと (aftermath of one too many animes), the rest of the photos are what we call Miscellaneous.

At L1 of Raffles City.

With pretty xmas lights.

On the bus home!

Hokays toodles!
