Gave my bestie a birthday surprise haha. Though it was kind of failed since we failed to light finish all the candles before she came. 

Cutting

Failed cutting skills.

Coffee Bean

My friend actually ordered espresso thinking it was normal coffee you usually drink.

Preparing for Christmas

Preparing the gifts for my grandparents for Christmas. Wrote them a small note, on a tag I bought from paper market, about the meaning behind the items I was giving them :P

Breakfast

Yes, Coffee Bean again!! Tried Eggs Bens for the first time. Loved the poached eggs, that does well with the saltiness of the ham and cheese. Though I think they have me way to much Ham. Ate all of this together with Earl Grey tea.

Bugis & Bugis+

Went to bugis and bought pouches. Was too cute to resist. The two pouches (Totoro and the cat) is 2 for $10!! 

Haji Lane

Bought this hand made stuff toy from one of the shops at Haji lane. Though the store was filled with cats... and I had to run out before I freak out more....

Coffee Bean - Crusty Bread

Went to JEM with my sister. Shared breakfast. The Bread was really soft~

Paris Baguette

After lunch we went to Paris Baguette to eat dessert. I had Strawberry Short cake and Original pudding. My sister had Caramel Pudding. The Pudding wasn't very firm, so I didn't really like it. The Short cake also has a cheese taste to it. But it was nice overall. Especially since the whipped cream is not too heavy or rich.

Vivo

The USS (universal studio singapore) which can be seen from vivo. Have not been to sentosa ever since they made those changes, but could really tell it looks really Disney-like.

Steam Boat

Had steamboat with friends to celebrate (?) the end of common test. The steamboat was buffet style, beside daiso (lvl 3).

Daiso

Bought random fabric tape from daiso and sweet. (has always been my favorite sweet)

Hokkaido Cheesecake

So.... My friend actually came down to me school (Ngee Ann Poly), to give me my birthday present, after my ITB (information technology business) test. Was really dreading that test, so I was really happy when she said that she would be coming down~ 

We went down to King albert park to have a mini chat session at spinelli. We were about the only two person that were talking there, since everyone there was studying for the test next day. (also had my Blaw test the next day).

The cheesecake was awesome!! I usually don't like cheesecake, especially because they are too rich and too dense and packed with cheese, for me. But this cheesecake was really fluffy and nice. At the same time not too overpowering. Mild cheese taste with that fluffy layers that melts in your mouth. Really liked it.

Random

Flash Cards

Rilakkuma Flash Cards bought from Kinokuniya. Gotta start studying soon, common tests are coming.

Socks
(I have a strange obsession with long socks.) Socks from Ebay finally came. Took me ages to find one with the three strips. Though not very stretchy.... But I like the quality.

Meji Ice cream

Tried this mini meji ice cream. It's really good! I like how it's not very creamy (I don't like ice cream that leaves oil residue on your lips.) Good size for me, so that I don't over eat. Since I always eat ice cream after dinner.

Nails

Finally did my nails. Didn't do for like ages. (by myself that is). I just painted normal colours. The base brown-glitter colour is from Butter London in All Hail the Queen. The Copper glitter is from Orly in Watch it Glitter. Honestly, It's a really nice copper colour. But i guess the contrast between the soft brown and the edgy copper doesn't blend well...

MacDonald

Tried the Croquette (or some of you might know it as Korokke) and Matcha mc Flurry. Wouldn't recommend eating the Croquette. It's worst than Mos burger's and it has this weird taste (it tasted like curry roux, but I'm not sure).

Drips

Went to Drips. http://drips.com.sg

This is the Drinks station where they make all the drinks.

Drink

Had Hand shaken Lemon Tea. Which taste like water with lemon and lime. Quite nice, but nothing special.

Tarts

When we got there, there was a very limited amount of tarts we could choose from. And honestly, I thought they they would have things like Pancakes and stuff like that (from the website). The three tarts here is Raspberry, pear and Mixed berry. Only the Mixed Berry has the custard filling.

Raspberry Tart

Honestly, it does not taste good. The tart was warm, which was weird. I was also thinking that it would have a custard filling, but they didnt have. The raspberry was also very sour. The pastry tasted a little uncooked. 

Favorite Song List: 16 October 2013

Don't Forget - Beak Ji Young
I really love the japanese version of this song, but I can't seem to find it. on youtube.




Between The Lips (50cm) - IU
My favorite song for IU's new album Modern Times




The Red Shoes - IU
2nd favorite song and the main song for Modern Times album. It really gets stuck in your head after you listen it for a few times.




Galaxy SuperNova - SNSD
Been out for a while now... But I still Love this song.




Number Nine - T-ara
New song from them. Nice song, but rap sucks.




All My Love is For You - SNSD
Old Jap song from their Oh! Album. But I got hooked on to it again~

Steam Boat

Had steamboat at my house. Used tom yum broth stock for the soup base.

Had Ramen, black pepper sausage, fish balls, Shabu Shabu, Mushroom, tofu and tofu puff. The shabu shabu, sausage and ramen.

Chocolate Cake

Friend made Chocolate cake. Used Chocolate chips, butter, cake flour, eggs and vanilla extract. We melted the butter and chocolate chips first and mixed them together. Than we beat the eggs till fluffy (which took awhile), and add the chocolate mixture in followed by the flour and vanilla extract. Than we stuck it into the microwave (since my oven didn't work).

Dessert

Added vanilla ice cream on top to balance out the richness of the chocolate cake. Was quite nice, minus the fact that it got a little dry and lacked the moisture.

Coffee Bean - Country Breakfast

Had Country Breakfast with ice blended matcha green tea. It consist of Scramble eggs, toast, two hash brown, baked beans, sausage and salad. Honestly, It's quite filling. Though I don't really like the type of sausage they use here (I prefer the one they use in Break O' Day)

Takashimaya - RoseChan
In Taka, they displayed all their previous Rose-Chan statues. Some of them were really cute~

Handmade Udon & Omurice Shop - Curry Udon

Tried this curry udon at plaza sing. Though I don't usually like Udon (since it's really thick and feels like there is a lot of starch), However, this on was really good. It was chewy, but didn't have that excess starchy taste to it. They also had Milk pudding for dessert (which was really awesome). 

Crepe

Tried this crepe at Plaza sing Basement level (just beside the MRT area) I ordered (forgot what the name was but) Chocolate banana. It has banana slices with chocolate syrup and little bit of nuts. At taste kind of plain at first (like there was not enough chocolate), but after a while the taste really grows on you.

Marina Square - St. Marcs Cafe

Ordered Strawberry Milk from there. It's basically just shaved iced with Strawberry Syrup and Frozen Strawberry Pieces on the bottom and Soft serve Vanilla ice cream with syrup. 

It's quite nice. I really liked the Vanilla Ice cream. Thought that they gave way to much Shaved Ice. 

Cooking

Pancakes

Finally cooking decent looking pancakes. I realized in order for to have a perfect brown surface, you must use a non-stick frying pan (cannot add oil).

Gyouza

Did gyouza from scratch (even the skin) Though I think I over cooked it a little, and the skin is a little hard. Recipe from:
