Marina Bay Sands Staycation Part 3

Here’s Part 3! Hehehe… I’m such a lazy bum…;p

The next morning, we went to Rise to have our buffet breakfast…

Photobucket
Photobucket
Essential item when I wake up. If I don’t have my daily dosage, its the surest way of getting a headache and ending my fun-filled day.

Photobucket
Rise… Its situated conveniently at the hotel lobby

Photobucket
When your room is just upstairs, you won’t be bothered with dressing up or applying any make up. Hahahah… Dead face.

Photobucket
Round 1 for Dear and me!

Photobucket
Dear will die without chinese food…. So he had to have his serving of porridge for his second round…
We are both very small eaters… Paid so much for the buffet and that’s all we ate! :( But i don’t believe in stuffing myself to a level of discomfort just to make it worth the value…

After a short rest, we went up to have a quick swim before checking out! The pool was beautiful in the morning!

Photobucket
Suntanning chairs!

Photobucket
He looks like he’s going to fall off the edge of the pool already…. >.<”’

Photobucket

Photobucket
See? Won’t fall off… hahahahaha…

A few more photos before I end~~~

Photobucket
It was so comfy when the warm morning sun warm us up after the swim in the cold waters that Dear just fell into a deep sleep…

Photobucket

We went to rest and got ready to check out after that!

Photobucket
While I was doing the checkout, I caught Dear engrossed in the string quartet’s performance. He’s not just a fantastic keyboardist and pianist… He’s a violinist too!!

That’s all for my MBS post!!! ;p
Hope you like it!

Maru the Cat

No blog is as addictive as Maru’s. I visit the blog everyday just to check for new posts and yeah, its pretty much updated once everyday.

Do pardon the blog’s not so fantastic english though, its done by a native Japanese!

I love Maru! ;p

Marina Bay Sands Staycation Part 2

Here’s part 2 of my post… hehehe… I know I took very long… ;p

I stopped at Dear Dear and I ordering room service for a late lunch and watching a in-house movie, and here we go from there…

We headed for a walk in the MBS Shoppes and decided to head straight to the Skypark after that! I couldn’t wait to see the infinity pool!

Perched on the 57th floor with a beautiful CBD view… How beautiful can it get?

We took really long to get into the pool… It was raining in the afternoon and the water was so cold and it was already evening time with no sunlight to warm us. I was just sitting by the edge and refusing to enter the pool when Dear had already swam right to the end for a good view. Then…. my Dear just gave a me pull and there! I was inside! So cold!!! And then both of us felt so cold and didn’t dared to move.. hahahaha… I’m so pathetic…

But of course, we swam around and parked ourselves at the edge for the beautiful view. Swimming around actually made me feel warmer. I was looking at two ang moh kids playing and jumping in and out of the pool and wondering why don’t they feel cold at all! Dear and I are so weak… hahahah!

No orangey sunset that evening, it was greyish and cold but still a beautiful sight to behold. We didn’t stay for too long, I didn’t want to fall sick, and so we headed up to dry ourselves on the suntanning chairs…. Towels were provided. We didn’t even need to bring towels from our hotel room.

Photobucket
Little feet, big feet…. Guess which is mine…

Photobucket
Photobucket

Didn’t take many photos that evening, we went up again the next morning again! More pics later..

We went back to the hotel room for a shower and got dressed up for dinner. There were so many restaurants at MBS and we took a long while to decide to go to Hide Yamamoto. The food is good! But the portion is quite small and its very expensive. I don’t mind paying more for good food but hmm… It isn’t that fantastic for the price, I think. (No photos here! Left my camera in the room!)

Both Dear and I do not know how to play all the gambling games in the casino but we wanted to take a look at it. I’m very stingy so Dear paid the levy for me. See? I haven’t even play anything and I already lose $100. So unfair right?! And 2 of us makes it $200!!!! Ouch!! I ouch for Dear’s pocket!

Brrrr….. But since we’re inside, we got some chips and tried out the games. Sigh…. Both of us were standing at the different tables, trying to figure out how the game works… The “big” “small” ones are relatively simpler so I started (and ended) with it! Of course I lost! I really don’t understand gambling.

Dear’s slightly (only slightly!) better than me. He won some at the “big” “small” game and went on to try the “3Pictures” game. Won and lost and won and lost and after cycles…. Lost. And hence it ends our casino night. We were laughing at ourselves after that. But it was an eye opener for us!

We laughed and walked back to our room and washed up and watched TV in the cosy room. And very soon, we started feeling hungry. I told you the portion for our dinner was very small right? Hahahaha….. Even for a small eater like me I was already feeling hungry just when the clock passed midnight! We needed supper but was lazy to move out to hunt for food already. So? Call for in-room dining AGAIN. Hahahah… Ouch on the pocket!! hahahaha…

Photobucket
The server set up the table for us painstakingly. But eh? Where’s the food?
(Who’s that sneaky person playing with the curtain controls in the corner of the room ah???)

Photobucket
Ta-da!!! We had to do the “sit on the floor and eat” stunt again.. hahahah…. Refer to Part 1 if you don’t know what I’m referring to… muahahahah….
Dear’s Mee Goreng and my creamy pasta!!

Had a scrumptious meal and we fell asleep very fast after that! We were both very tired!!!

I’ll blog a Part 3 okie by these 2 days ya? Part 3 will be the morning’s breakfast and swimming at the Infinity Pool again before checking out! The pool pictures with the morning sun are beautiful! Gimme another day or 2! Muacks!! :)

Curls in My Hair!

I rarely curl my hair although I bought a Joseber curling tongs. But I curled them today! Not very skilled at doing it and so I took very long…. zzzz…. But it was fun!

Photobucket
Ta-da! Not too bad hor? ;p

Photobucket
After curling my hair, I tied a half ponytail at the left side and tease the top a little… Should have teased it a little more for a bigger poof on top!

Photobucket
And I added a little ribbon hair clip!

Photobucket
I like the curls! I have room for improvement though.. hahaha…
Scrunched up the curls with Liese’s Wave Foam…. It holds quite well!!

I’ll try out more hairstyles with curls soon! :)

First Try At Pole

I had wanted to blog about Part 2 of my Marina Bay Sands Staycation but I’m really too exhausted and sleepy now I look at the tons of photos then I decided not to already… hehehe…)…oopsss…. that’s the downside of a workout for a person who doesn’t exercise at all! Yes, me. Hehehe… I do up the post real soon yeah? Hee!

I’m not just exhausted today. My arms and legs are aching, and I even have blue-blacks on my calf… All because I went for a trial lesson for pole dancing today! Thanks to Celeste who introduced it to me and brought me there! It was really fun and I love it! But pole dancing isn’t as easy as it looks… Its really strenuous and demands a lot of strength! I don’t have that… hahahaha…. so… yes… aching ALL OVER now…;p

Pole dancing is real difficult. But its really nice and fun and I watched the higher level classes dancing and its so nice! Celeste is so good at it! I was telling her, I’m so going to master it, then I’ll quit my job and apply to be a pole dancer somewhere already… Errr….Hmm… She laughed quite loudly… hahahah! Its not nice trying to imagine someone with no figure as a professional pole dancer? Okie… I think I should discard that thought, rather then letting it spoil everyone’s appetite… hahahaha! But i’m trying to be more womanly already… LOL…I’ve registered for classes already!

Anyway… Here’s a clip I found on Youtube from the Pole Dancing school… Take a look!

Anyone wants to join me?! Hehehe…

Keep Everyone In Prayers

Someone close and important to me fell sick. Sigh. She’s one of the healthiest, strongest and nicest lady I’ve met. All I hope for is for her to get well soon and recover.

And may every single one here, reading or not reading this post be in good health and in the company of your loved ones.

I’ll be praying…

Marina Bay Sands Staycation Part 1

I booked a room at MBS to celebrate Dear’s birthday! Its a belated celebration though, because his birthday falls on a Saturday, but his off day is on a Tuesday. So no choice la, can only go on a Tuesday!

But I did have a mini celebration with Dear on the actual day! I went to design a little mini cake for him at The Icing Room…

Photobucket
Photobucket
nice nice? Heh…. I got a mini sized one, since I know that I’ll be the only one eating it after that….

On on 15th March, we head to our staycation at MBS!

The room was really expensive but worth it… its huge and cosy!

The toilet is huge…… really big…. I can dance inside!!

And when you step out of the toilet…. You are greeted by a huge mirror!!
Photobucket

Photobucket
The dressing table! Dear’s looking through the brochures to see what we can do there…

Photobucket
We haven’t ate anything for the whole morning and afternoon and was feeling super hungry and decided to order some in-room dining…

Photobucket
And we did the silliest thing…

Photobucket
There was a dining table for us but we moved all the food to the coffee table, sat on the floor and eat.
That’s exactly what we do at home EVERYDAY.
And what did we do next?…
We realized that we could purchase movies to watch just by pressing the remote. It cost about $20 for a movie.
And so we decided to buy Shrek Forever After, and watched movie as we eat…. THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT WE”LL DO AT HOME. Hahahahah…. we were laughing at ourselves and asking ourselves why we bothered to come for a staycation. hahahahaha….
Anyway… I ordered a kids meal Fish and Chips, and Dear order Nasi Goreng and a very nice Clam Chowder Soup…. I actually love the bread that comes with it most… hehehe..

Photobucket
Dear Dear and me!

I’ll continue the Part 2 of the post by this week!! Anyway… the Skypark is really beautiful! I love it! Will blog about it too! :)

Arteastiq

Its quite difficult to catch Celeste in town and very difficult to meet up with her since she’s always flying in the sky, so we grabbed the opportunity and met up on a Monday afternoon for some coffee at a new place she recommended – Arteastiq @ Mandarin Gallery.

Photobucket
The 2 of us! The last time we managed to catch each other for a meet up was during Christmas! I love her Zara dress! But I think it will turn into a maxi dress on me! :(
I got lots of compliments for the grey top I was wearing that day. I got it from Bugis Village at only $20 or $25, can’t remember.

Photobucket

Photobucket
Shop front of Arteastiq. It looks like a designer’s furniture store in front but the cafe is hidden behind.

Photobucket

Photobucket
The colourful fairytale-like chairs! So sweet!

Photobucket
I’m sitting on the colourful side, while facing me, Celeste was sitting on the dark coloured, sophisticated sofas.
Seem like a clash of designs but you won’t feel that way when you are there. Its very nicely put together.

Photobucket

Photobucket
We kept taking photos… hahahaha…. and we took a long time to decide what to order. Everything looks very yummy.

Photobucket
Celeste’s Yuzu tea

Photobucket
And my chocolate! Very rich and the ice-cream that came with it is bitter chocolate flavoured.
Celeste was telling me that their tea is their speciality, but aiya, I can’t help it, the chocolate is more tempting.

Photobucket
Eh the chocolate is really super nice… do try it if you are a chocolate lover…

Photobucket
I love this photo! Pretty Celeste!

Photobucket
Happy with all the delicious treats!

Photobucket
Celeste ordered savouries.
The smoked salmon and the crab meat salad was very good. But the beef… hmm… okay only.

Photobucket
My favourite of the lot — Orange Cake.
It was served warm and was very soft, very nice! I couldn’t stop eating it. We are supposed to share but I think I ate more than half! heheheh… If I’m going back again, I’m ordering Orange Cake again.
There’s another Apple Cake that I heard was equally good. So next time I shall order two cakes… All for myself! Muahahaha….

Photobucket
Although my favorite colour is blue, I love pink too! Must sit on the pink chair for a while…
My friend, Nana, who saw this photo when I uploaded it onto my facebook said that it reminded her of Goldilocks and the 3 bears. This chair belongs to Papa Bear…. Obviously too big for me.. hahahaha…

Photobucket
Ka-ching ka-ching! Payment time!

Overall its a nice cafe with cosy ambience and good food. However the service can be improved I thought, they left us with all the privacy we needed. Hahaha…. I would still love to go back again though! :)

我能給的

吳克群 - 《我能給的》

《女人我最大》播完了,無意間看到這隻MV,靜靜地把它看完,有一種莫名的感動。

它讓我想起了Dear Dear和我剛開始的那個時候。

我們的開始像是從偶像劇里剪出來的片斷,轟轟烈烈的,好多的愛,好多的掙扎,好多的歡笑与淚水。

但是我跟他說我不會放棄。以前是,現在也是。

好不容易熬過來了… 雖然很多時候我們也不知道明天會發生甚麼事,但是我會珍惜現在的每一刻。 :)
