I'm finally going back to work the day after tomorrow! I kinda miss work and am sick of lazing around in the house. Here's a list of things I did while I was on my medical break:
1) a- cleaned the linen, bedsheets and comforter cover
b- cleaned the house, i mean even the stove as well.
2) applied for leave for next half a year so that i can plan for holidays
3) cooked everyday since I'm home, sick of thinking of dishes to cook.
4) started reading a book that I bought off Kino last week.
And here I am going to blog about a month ago when my Singaporean friend, Althea came to Dubai!
I get uber duper excited when people come to town to visit.
Went to Dean and Deluca again for lunch with Althea and wanted to again try the chicken pot pie but it was sold out AGAIN. gosh this is the second time and its gone still ;(
Althea chose to have a sandwich while I had my beef lasagna, nice if it wasn't burnt at the bottom.
Gahhh, food can be better here, wasn't as good as the first time I had there.
Althea called this my "good friend" because this electronic map can bring you around Dubai Mall, I swear! It directs you to the right level, and the right direction to any shop listed in its directory :)
You won't be lost having this, taking the aquarium as the center of the mall.
Vanilla and Choc cake from Magnolia again.... I know I know, people must be tired of seeing me posting cakes from M but I love them!
Lemon Meringue cake which goes so well with tea :D definitely one of my favorites (along with red velvet)!
my pretty friend with her pretty cakes :)
We went out for some fresh air after shopping and took some pictures along the way since it was going to be dawn.
still amazed each time I watch the fountain show :D
the address hotel next to Dubai Mall which looked like the Sail next to ORQ in Singapore :p
The classy gold souk within the mall;
Althea and I paid to get into the Dubai Mall Aquarium!
Met sharks close up!
I adore stingrays! Here's a pointy one;
and one that looked like it was smiling for the camera :D
ADORE!
We went to different sections which featured smaller fishes, creepie crawlies and some kodomo dragon-alike and penguins;
The only touristy thing Althea got to do in Dubai is visit the burj khalifa and aquarium lol, I wished we had company to do the desert safari (cos my mates pulled out :( )
Lastly, we did get her some souvenir to bring back to SG!
