Woodwould

Hubby and I went to Mandarin Gallery for Ippudo Ramen and we came across a uber cute shop there - Woodwould.

You can find many pretty little cards, pens, notebook, etc.. A place where I think many would love too!

I almost bought the whole shop! But luckily hubby pulled me out of the shop in time. :P

ROM (Day)

Theme for our ROM cake

A few months ago, I am into Gloomy Bear.

I like the story of how a little boy diligently took care of young, cute and cuddly abandoned Gloomy Bear and it became wild when it grows up because bear do not become attached to people. Gloomy attacks the little boy even though he is the owner. Poor little boy is often scratched or bitten by Gloomy. But he still love it dearly.

So for our theme, we decided to use the baby pink and blue Gloomy Bears which we "caught" in Singapore.

Something different from the usual Precious Moments figurines that the majority of the couples use for as their cake topper.

RAWRRRRRRR...

The Groom & Bride.

So cute can~ I love it to bits!

Spent quite a bit to catch them both at a UFO catcher shop at United Square.

The cake.

Very well done right? :)

Not 100% resemblance because Cheryl Shuen made their terrifying teeth into charming smile. 

The end product.

120 cupcakes filled the 5 tier stand full to it's brim.

The cake was awesome~~!! But the icing on the cupcakes were too sweet for many.

Overall everyone LOVE the display of the cupcakes + cake.

Stina Nordenstam - Something Nice

A nice and soothing song from 1994~

when I listen to this.. it makes me think of the happy times with Hubby~ Love love~




Almost give it a try
I sure do
I wake up early thinking of you
And I paint my eyes
In light blue
Reflecting every promise I do
There’s a brand new note in the middle of this song
I close my eyes and hope that nothing will go wrong

That I’ll have something nice
To talk about while I’m walking home
Have something nice to talk about
While I’m walking home

Almost wondering why
You want me
Sometimes I think you’re better off on your own
When I make you cry
Over me
I almost want to leave you alone
But when I wake up in the middle of the night
And when I sometimes suddenly remember your smile

And to have something nice
To talk about while I’m walking home
To have something nice to talk about
While I’m walking home Share this post:

Love from Zurich~

Especially for me - From Twinkle ~❤  

I guess Twinkle knows I bring a water bottle everywhere I goes, that's why she got me one for Christmas.

Thanks sweetie~

I love it!!

And it says, "Fliters as you drink"

Was looking forward to a white Christmas here in Zurich. But it didn't snow. Sob~ My room was stuffy & warm that I had to open the window (3 degree outside) and still feeling warm. I didn't sleep well because the noise from the passing tram and vehicles too~

Woke up in the evening. Lazy to go out for my dinner, so I order room service. Yummy~



So nice to have a heart shape chocolate after my meal. So full of love ~❤



Even the biscuit at the coffee making table is heart shape too ~❤

Parfait Tic! 爱似百匯

爱似百匯 is my favourite manga after Nana.

I'm so happy that I get to watch real humans acting it out. And I get to watch the pilot episode today on Tudou :) *dancing around*

Awww... made me think of the nice moments I have with my manga.. Daydreaming while reading it. Fond memories.

Can't wait for the 2nd episode next week!


p/s I'm hook on another Taiwanese drama 泡沫之夏 starring Barbie Hsu, Huang Xiao Ming and Peter Ho. Quite nice too~ :) Share this post:

女王 or 小女人

I wonder why some women are able to tolerate cheating / physical abuse / verbal abuse / or other bad behavior from a guy.

I have a guy friend - above average look, mid 20s, married to his university sweetheart for a year. He still meet other girls (always a different one and they know he's married) for lunch / dinner (if it proceed on to sex, even better for him) while his wife works or thinks that he is hanging out with his guy friends. Is his wife too gullible? Or she just turn a blind eye as long as she gets to see him every night? Is she a 小女人 (little women)?

Another guy friend of mine.. almost 30, very ego (is it true that guys with small dick is normally a egoist?), has a girlfriend for 2 years. The girlfriend cries easily.. sad movies, touching conversations.. you can say that she is a very emotional person. Well, the story is.. the guy often hits her on her head, arms or leg. To outsiders like me, I can't tolerate it because I feel that it was quite overboard to lay even a last finger on a woman. But to her, he's just playing with her even though sometimes it hurts so bad that she cries. And when she cries, he pacifies her and everything is ok. WTF right?! Is she a 小女人?

Till now, I still don't understand why single young woman like to go for married man?

Most said, "I don't know he was married in the first place."

So after you learnt that he is STILL married, why didn't you broke off with him? If you're in his wife's shoes, how would you feel? A mistress has no guarantee.. No future. Youth is wasted just like that.

Just yesterday, I learnt that an acquaintance (29, divorced with a 7 year old boy) of mine who is a mistress to a 40 year old married man (in his 2nd marriage) with 3 children, discovered that he cheated once again on her with the same China woman he knows before her. She was devastated and want to broke off, but the guy still pester her to patch back and all. It's a cycle of never-ending heart break. Is love really that blind?

My mother was a 小女人. That's why my dad was able to climb over her head and torture her. Luckily they are no longer legally married and my mom don't have to go through anymore emotional/physical abuse.

Maybe that's why I look down on 小女人? Maybe that's why I don't like it when woman worship their men and voluntarily diminish their self value, losing respect from the man they love truthfully.



To all the LADIES out there:

Show pride in yourself. You NEED to feel that the man you love treats you as special and unique, and vice versa.

You should feel LUCKY~ to have each other, upholding each other's sense of happiness and pride.

If your fellow doesn't show you how special you are, he's not your ideal mate. MOVE ON.

quoted from a book by Margaret Kent

The key word here is Respect from the guy you love ~

Christmas Exchange at P.S Cafe

Christmas is just around the corner. But Glady and I won't be in Singapore to celebrate it.

So we decided to celebrate it in advance with Ann Ann and Melissa. Yeah~ q(^,^)p

This year we have a condition in buying presents for each other. $50 budget for each recipient. No photo frame, food or things that will finish after using (example hand cream).

I lurrrrve gatherings.

Especially with 3 of my favorite girls. Glady. Ann Ann. Melissa.

Every time the 4 of us gather together, I always feel like we are in the set of Sex and The City, where 4 ladies slip champagne over Sunday Brunch, chat about love & men & everyday stuffs.

Kimmie as Carrie Bradshaw - caught the writer's bug.. thus this blog (and the previous blog) was born.

Ann Ann as Miranda Hobbes - career-minded with a laid back fiancé.

Melissa as Samantha Jones - liberal and aways speak her mind.

Glady as Charlotte York - a perfectionist who is traditional in relationship. 

See... the 4 characters of Sex and The City match us well. :P

P.S Cafe was the chosen place for the night. With excellent service, sweet Italian white wine, great food, Christmas jiggles, fantastic company - We had a blast!

We are among the first to reach and the last to leave the place.. That's how much fun we had that we had lost track of time.

  






❤  Kimmie, Glady, Melissa & Ann Ann  ❤

   

Glady + Flamed Prawn Tortellini. Yummy~!

Ann Ann + Chicken Parmigiana *yum yum*

Melissa + uber expensive delicious rib eye steak *super yummy*

Kimmie + Beef, Mushroom & Bacon Ragout

After a round of wine, guessing what is neatly wrapped in the  and gratifying meals... It's time to OPEN our presents :) YIPEEEEEE~~!!

First in the group to open her present.
A gift from Ann Ann.

A gorgeous red jewellery box.

Red seems to be the "in" color among my group of friends.



Recently, Glady & I met up with Twinkle.. she spotted my Bally long black wallet and said that it was very pretty.. Then I opened and showed her that it is RED inside.. so sexy ~ awww~ That's why Charles' bought it for me for Christmas. :)

I mentioned that Glady's Louis Vuitton damier wallet is also RED inside.

It is 长大女人的颜色

Outside is plain and dull.. but when you open it.. it's SHOCKING and SEXY~!! That's the kind of feeling I have when I first saw it. *smiles*

Later I realized Twinkle has a flowery Samantha Thavasa wallet.. which is RED inside too~

And so we name RED as the 长大女人的颜色 ~❤



Present from Glady & Kimmie.

We shared a present for her so that we can get her something over our individual budget :)



A present within a present.
"So thoughtful~" Melissa must be having that thought. :P



A 32GB thumb drive - seems to be the highest memory for a small device.
And a purple pouch with Body Shop toiletries.. This gift is great for her to bring if we can go overseas together one day :)

Ann Ann, Glady & I had travelled to Bangkok, Bali and Batam together before.. Not bad eh.. all the cities starts with "B". Will the next city be Barcelona? :P



Ann Ann has the biggest present~~!

It's from Glady & I

I kinda like the big gold ribbon on it. :)

"Stripping" the present~ :P

All from the Hello Kitty shop. Ann Ann is into the Hello Kitty craze right now.

In case you are wondering what the long aluminum looking thing on the right hand side of the picture is.. It's a sunlight reflector for the car.  Ann Ann like it the most as she has been planning to get one too. Hubby who went with us to buy Ann Ann's present suggested us to get it instead of the Hello Kitty nail clipper, Hello Kitty scissors and other misc stuffs. Great choice hubby :) You're the best in choosing gifts~!! :)

The thing was.. Ann Ann was surprised by the expensive price tag which I had forgotten to remove when I wrapped the present.

Haha.. maybe it's a good idea to keep the price tag on? So that the gift won't look that cheapo? Ha.. Just kidding~~

Next is Glady. :)

She gets to unwrap my present for her~ ~

Knowing that she like to swim for leisure. I decided to get her a shower robe which she can use after swimming to keep warm and dry :)

It was the least expected thing that she opened because she thought that the box contains a towel set. :P




Next present from me~ :)

The gift wrapper pretty right? Love it lots!!

 

Heehee.. It's a towel set that I got her. :) :)

She is into Mickey Mouse after going to Tokyo Disneyland.

Can tell that she like it alot~




Finally.. My turn~!

Gifts from Glady.

 





All from Disney store in Japan~

Mickey Mouse rice mould, Mickey Mouse bread cutter, Mickey Mouse rice scooper and Marie ribbon rubber band. Love~

 

Another gift parcel from Glady :)

Love it toooooo bits!! Tinkerbell cup~!

They commented that I look like Tinkerbell *blush*

The least expected gift~

And the most BLING item of the night..

Swarovski Crystal Pen.. which is Out Of Stock of whole of Singapore~!

Wanted to get Ann Ann & Melissa this too.. Ordered but not yet in Singapore. Sad~

Both Ann Ann & Melissa went gaga when they saw the pen.

Heehee..

I hoped that the pen will arrive soon, so that I can give it to them :)

So she bought me one to add to my collection :)

A ring for Glady, and a pair of ear rings for me from Glady's favourite accessories shop in Singapore.




Appreciating the box that comes with the jewelry.

 





Last but not least..

Melissa's present for the 3 of us.

 






Glady's eyes brightens up when she saw the box!
