In a nutshell,
it's a change from this:

to this....




If you're wondering, "Where'd all the hair go?"... you're asking the right question.

FooDie GooDie Part II

More food!!! Specifically... desserts!!

I can't shop when the weather is too hot. It gets me all uncomfortable and worked up... and sian. And to deal with that, I just need some desserts. Thanks to certain ice-cream loving kakis who indulge on good ice-cream with me when we go out, I've started craving for ice-cream everytime I go out. ARgh. I love SCOOPz ice-cream. And New Zealand ice-cream too. Of coz, there'll always be B & J and Haagen Dazs and this Japanese ice-cream that looks like a pyramid (eh, forgot the long name... it's some expensive ice-cream from this ice-cream place at marina).

Back to the pics...

I ate here:

This place sounds Hong Kong-ish but my friend says there's no this shop in HK leh. Izzit?

Personal fave!!! Big round tang yuan with fillings! I like them all! Yam, red bean, peanut or sesame! And this stall at outram market sells durian ones too! And I love 芝麻糊 and 杏仁糊 too! (Did I write those words right... haha) Erm, what's that translated into ang moh... sesame paste and almond paste? Sounds a little strange. haha. But you know what I'm talking about right?


Ultra mango dessert... Has real mango in it! And a lot a lot too!


Two really nice and fruity desserts... the one on the left has red rubies! You know... the chestnuts coated in a soft and chewy layer.. I like!!

Sheesh. I'm hungry now.

FooDie GooDie Part I

As promised... More food pics!! Here's some goodies from New York New York! I love concept of the little cubicles... haha.

JT being JT, I shall serve you the desserts first...

Fried Mars Bars! I don't know how they did it. If not, I'd DIY at home.


Waffle ice-cream! Choco chessboard waffles, maple syrup & choco ice-cream. Good for sweet tooths. I'm a sweet tooth of sorts. But not that sweet a sweet tooth la. I think I overate that day. By the time desserts came, I was up to my throat with food... and was just trying not to let anything out from my stomach...


Back to the starters... some soup.... Forgot what. My friend had it. Erm, minestrone? I'm the kind who'd go for cream of mushroom, clam chowder... or even cream of tomato. haha.


Yummy Yummy bratwurst saugsages! Imagine biting into a warm, juicy piece of bratwurst wrapped in grilled-cripsy bacon!!! Love the salad side too... not your regular salad drowned in salad cream. There's a good variety of veges that I don't recognize... and they taste light & refreshing! Of coz, fries will be fries. We have loved fries since the day we had our first Macs Happy Meal.


Grilled chicken with sphagetti in cream sauce... Big & nice serving of chicken there!


Giant meatball pasta! I was expecting more giantic-looking meatballs tho... but I like tomato base pasta. That's penne for you. I don't mind fusilli or linguine.


Here's fish and pasta... Fish... I like them fresh and light. Less messy than eating chicken. wahaha.


Seafood pasta! I like! This one tastes very mussle-ish. But okie, it's tomato-based. hahaha.


I think... the more I blog and the more you read, the more you'd know my appetitite and my tastebuds. haha. I think I seriously enjoy good food. Can eating yummies be considered as a past time?

Juz some Singlish Mumble-Rumble.

I've tons of foodie pics to load... and I've also got pics of my dog's major makeover haircut. And I've spent more than $100 on the GSS. I'm done with all the shopping. Shopped till I drop le. Tired siah. I'm taking a break from shopping. Got almost all that I need and want... except for jeans and shoes maybe. haha. And I wanna watch Pirates, and Shrek and Narnia.

Anywayzzz, from the little TV I watch, I have this to say:
The Xiao4 yuan2 super xiaodidi Shawn rocks! haha. He beat all those other gorgors (who are supposedly more shuai) flat man!!! Compared to the rest, can tell that he's the one with the charisma and he's more musically inclined than the rest la! Go xiaodidi!! I support! I think Xiaomeimei's will also support him. Jiejies will also support. He's gonna make it.

Emo emo emo.

I'm seriously in one of my moods. Nah, nothing to worry about. It's just one of those days when I'm tired and sian. And when that happens, things start looking a bit blue. It's one of those days when you'd entertain the thought that the world would be better if you weren't there to make ripples in the puddle. It's one of those days when you remember that you've 1001 things that you should be doing at the back of your mind and you don't feel like doing them. The 1001 thingies are the fuzzy background menial everyday tasks that you'd have to finish up in order to get that bugger naggy feeling off your back. Meanwhile, in competition with these 1001 things, there's the 1002th which comes along a little later. It's the meaningful thingie you know you should go the extra mile to do, but you struggle coz you still have 1001 that should be cleared in order to get your life fixed up. And you feel bad about struggling coz you do the 1002th thingie unwillingly. And you know that even if you didn't do the no. 1002th meaningful thingie, you still wouldn't touch the 1001 things that you don't feel like doing. If 1002 thingies aren't enough, you suddenly get appointments and outings coming along your way. Some you'd wanna avoid, and some you really wanna go out and enjoy. But you'd go out thinking about 1001 things and the 1002th thingie, and the opportunity costs of it all. In the end, shrinking into a corner at home under the shroud of anti-socialness seems like the best self-preservation policy. My world, no one else. My pace, my time. Me, myself and I. Selfish-inward looking brat. Aaaack. -shake head-

Sorry peeps. Give me some time. I'd get outta this shroud soon.

Food Glorious Food (& Cakes!)

Food makes me happy. I think I'm spending way too much on entertainment. Food, cakes, movies, musicals, shopping, ktving... and cab ares when I'm late... oH nooooo. Now with school loan repayment on the way... watch out JT. Watch out. Or you'd be having plain bread and water soon.
But... since I've already had all the yummy food... Lemme share it with you!
(Sorry ah, lazy to photoshop much.. but here goes!)

Mango Mousse!!! It's so smooth, so full of mango and it's light and melts in your mouth! As my friend puts it, "Once you've tried this, you won't want any other mango cake!"



Absolutely delicious choco cake that's warm, moist, rich and splits open with a reservoir of thick chocolate flowing out! And there's an orange slice that's right at the bottom to give it a natural, tangerine taste that completely compliments the chocolately experince. Of course, you have your ice cream and pretty fruits to make it all mouth-watering and ultimatley satisfying! Perfect score! 10/10! My personal fave!


Apple caramel something topped with vanilla ice-cream! Made with real-apples and caramel! Warm and nice and the slight sour-sour taste from the real apples goes perfect with the ice-cream!


Frasier! A yummy cake that melts in your mouth! The creamy part of it is sooooo light and sooooo nice! And there're real strawberries embedded inside too! There's some flowery fragrance that's really light and it's not too sweet... it's just perfect! If I'm not in my heavy choco mood, I'd go for this personal fave no. 2!!


Strawberry shortcake! Light, spongey and so soft, so moist, so nice!


Personal fave no. 3!! I love cheese! And I love cheesecake! Absolutely delicious! It completely melts in your mouth! So light and the lemony taste is just nice! Even the crust just melts in your mouth... amazing!!! I'd go for this again if i'm in a mood for rich foods (other than my choco...haha)


It's poofy stuff filled with ice cream. Portellini or Porfollini or something. Ooops. cant remb the name but it's specially for all sweet-tooths! Little puffs filled with vanilla ice-cream and absolutely drowned in chocolate!!!


Sorry, I was so excited about the desserts... I forgot to intro the starters and the main course. Here's the pumpkin soup...


Followed by the 4 pastas...



(I'm plain biased towards desserts. I'm so biased that I've designated a separate compartment of my stomach for desserts. Anywayz, all these yummies are from Bakerzin! If you're asking me out for dessert, you know where I wanna go now hor? But arm yourself with at least $25 for main course and dessert k? Erm... make that $50, if you're giving me a treat. muahaha)

Inspired by ... Rainbow

I wanted to blog about good food, and I wanted to blog about the Quotable Quotes that have impressed me. But no, what's fumbling and jumbling in my mind, waiting to be thrown up and out is inspired by a particular person.

Let's just say that this person has a particularly colourful personality. And it's an unpredictable one too. The main point probably is that you should try not to offend this person, or this person's colours will descend upon you. Let's just call this person Rainbow. I've heard how this Rainbow has exiled other people out of sight coz Rainbow doesn't feel particularly flattered or pleased with them. Oh, to put things into context, Rainbow and the rest have a superior-subordinate kind of relationship. Sad to say, I've made it to the Rainbow's blacklist and I've experienced a teeny fraction of Rainbow's verbal expression of displeasure. (Reads: Unkind words and sacarsm. Well, volume was loud at one point of time.) Rainbow watches the blacklisted and has a flair for encouraging others to be as perfect as they can be (ie. Rainbow has the ability to spot all your mistakes, point out extra mistakes you didn't make, and of course, conjure up a cause to correct you on what wasn't even a mistake.)

Naturally, I was upset when Rainbow's colours flashed, thundered and drenched me. But on hindsight, maybe I shouldn't be. Rainbow reminded me that I should work to the best of my ability. I'm challenged to do my utmost best such that Rainbow would have nothing to pick on. Well, if Rainbow does want to get personal and create an unpleasant experience, I'd have to remember that those comments and verbal abuse are invalid and unapplicable.

There is no excuse for unapologetic use of verbal abuse.

Siansiansighsigh

Sighsighsiansiansian. Sian-ness is everywhere. It's suffocating. Nope, no happy thoughts at the moment. Buggered by sian-ness. I'm getting stoney-faced. Maybe even black faced. Getting apathetic and impatient. Either that, or frustrated and pek-chek. Permanent state of PMS. Not thankful, not caring, not joyous. Dry, gruelling, withered. Sianly stuck to passivity in probably all areas of life.

Room in mess,
work is work,
books unread,
brain unthinking,
heart not praying,
speech is stinging,
mind degrading,
heart is hardening,
songs are fading.
Bleeding,
bleeding.

Oh how depressing.

Chocolate therapy anyone.

Stressed is Desserts spelt backwards.

JR, Lia, ZL, YT... I'm so sorry... so so so sorry... A disastrously strong wind indirectly caused a major accident to the most sweetie pie present... It shattered and it broke my heart to see the pieces. I'm so going to glue it back and keep it with me no matter what.

That's the Phone!

My oldie 6610i has been dropped a gazellion times and it's still in a perfectly usuable state, save for the scotch tape that's required to hold its cover in place. Nevertheless, I've been scouting for some kinda phone that'd made me go, "That's it!!! That's the one!", but to no avail... until I've received a flyer thru' the mail...

This is the ONE !!! The w880i Walkman phoneeeeeee!!

It's not a slidey phone (don't like slidey phones), it's skinny (it's only 9.4mm!), it can store tons of music (like 900 songs!) and it's pretty and bla bla bla... I LIKE!!!!

Somebody buy for me please. Thanks.

My first dress!!

Correction. Make that my first spaghetti dress. muahaha. I've got one white prom dress and one little brown office-y dress... and one brown and white spag dress! (What's with brown and white.)

tadaaaaa...



Nice?
