Hello! How was everyone's week? I had a good relaxing week. And I'm looking forward to a lovely weekend. There's a farmer's market at Loewen today and Mr Kwek and I will be checking it out. Hopefully, there will be lot's of pretty stuff that I can take fisheye pics of.

Mr Kwek and I checked out Once Upon a Milkshake this week. It was a pretty place with decent ice cream. BUT unlike other other ice cream places, they had a rather limited flavour choice. I was also not allowed to taste the flavours before purchasing them... Finally, I wouldn't reccomend the brownie with ice cream as the brownie was cold! Nobody serves cold brownie with ice cream!

That's 2-day old Sarah-Mae Sharon's newborn daughter. Isn't she a cute little bundle?

Sashimi! To celebrate Siew geok's birthday. Hope you had a great birthday SG! It was good catching up with all of you. You guys must be busy running around Oldham now for the Orientation. May God grant all of you extra strength and grace to serve Him there.

Though of the week: How do you know he/she is the one?

Whizz through the Weekend!

Dropped off my Red Box at Junction 8 yesterday. For a 8-10yr olf girl. I decided on a red/pink theme- pink cat purse, Hello Kitty drawstring pouch, rose pen, panda pencilcase, pink mechanical pencil with extra lead, pink 4colour pen and a red shawl. I really hope the lovely young lady who gets the box likes the stuff.

Last night was also the night the newly-wed Caleb/Sab invited us to their cool new home. They are such a sweet couple.

Today, my mom and I went to my grandaunt's place to learn to make pineapple tarts. I have come to understand why people charge so much money for these tarts. It's such a long tedious process. But making the tarts with three generations of family members around makes the process so much more fun! The whole house was filled with the aroma of butter and vanilla.

The finished product was buttery, sweet and melts in the mouth. Awesome.

Looking forward to another blessed week!

Fisheye!

I bought a Lomo Fisheye!!!!!
Extremely pleased with myself for making a frivolous purchase, and thankful for the colleagues who talked me into buying the Fisheye instead of a bunch of books from Kinokuniya during our directorate retreat. The lovely people also walked up and down the Takashimay looking for film to fill the new Fisheye.

Can't wait to finish the film and print my first batch of Fisheye photos! 0 comments

Haven't blogged in awhile. Been cut off from gmail/blogger/msn for some reason.

Anyway, life has been good to me of late.

I won my first blog giveaway on So about what I said...! A lovely pink vintage cardigan from Vintage Petals. Unfortunatly, apart from the email telling me I have won, I haven't heard anything on how I'm going to receive my prize...

I haven't been too overwhelmed with work, which means I have time to do other stuff like bake! I tried baking banana bread last night cos I got home from work really early, but the mixture didn't rise. I'm evidently not very good at following recipes. Will try again soon and hopefully I will have a post of my successful baking endevour soon.

I'm loving my set of wheels, which grants me freedom from the rush hour crush on public transport. At the same time, it packs in good exercise since my half hour ride between home and office makes me ride both up and down hill.

I'm keeping up with my reading. I'm almost halfway through Confucious-a life of thought and politics, and I'm reading the Black Swan on and off. Mr Kwek has promised me a nice dinner when I'm done with Black Swan :) happy incentive. looking forward to it.

The FM has transformed into nice people! We are all doing our part for the community in different ways. Del, Man and Neh will also be donating to the Red Box Project and they have even passed the word on to their friends! The bunch of uni students doing this as their FYP would have no idea how the word spread so far.

Attended a cousin's wedding over the weekend. I love weddings!

I'm loving being loved.
