homecoming nov I

I went missing on blogger again because of my 2 weeks holidays back home!

It's funny how people take holidays overseas and I take vacation breaks home, nevertheless, it's nice to be home with friends and family ;)

On the 2nd day when I'm back, I was supposedly heading to town to meet my friends when I realised that I left my wallet at home so I had to give my favorite steamboat, Coca a miss.
With little time in my hands, I quickly changed our location to Tampines where they had Crystal Jade steamboat there, as mentioned to me by Mon.

JS' favorite shabu shabu pork strips

Steamboat buffet is the best food for gathering as you can spend a couple of hours just chatting while holding conversations and catching up.
I'm pleasantly surprised that it only cost us $23 each, half the price of what we would have spent at Coca steamboat. Good variety of drinks and steamboat ingredients.

While JS and Marcus left to rest, three of us went chillin' at Starbucks!

Loved those christmas themed cups while we had our favorite drinks.

Mon had asked me to write about her here so... ;)

In life, you need a pretty and looney friend, so this is the one character in my life I can never live without.
You can always find her around the bend when you're in trouble or when you're heartbroken. She'll always be there.
'Nuff said, 12 years of friendship can never beat the words I can try to find.

Each of them had themselves a new phone, while I struggle to use my iphone 4 ;(

Its been a good 9 months that we haven't caught up!


And the galore of food awaits...

Hanz had the healthier choice of vegetables and stir fried beef. The assortment of veg reminds me of bibimbap without the sauce! Such a pretty dish ;)


I had the stewed mushroom broth with black rice (assumingly healthier than white rice). The broth had the korean clear noodles had a good chewy sensation and as a shromes lover, I clearly liked the dish.

My N-th time at Starbucks because it's the only place that closes late so we continued our catchup and a group photo!

It's nice to see you girls pursuing your dream jobs - you are the only one who knows what suits you best ;)
Special thanks to Hannah who got me a bag of gifts - thank you girlie!! :) You shouldn't have gone the expense and I really appreciate all the texts you have gone to send me so far:) <3

Did my french gel extensions for the wedding (which I have to write about next)! Not very used to the length since I always have short nails so this needs some getting used to!


with my boyfriend whom we were getting a blazer for, chose a slim-cut black blazer for the dinner.


My WIW:

tracyeinny scoop back dress in blue
black bbag part time with rose gold hardware
pazzion cut-out flats in silver

We had a lot of plans for the 2 weeks I'm home but we spent most of it slacking, catching a movie, going out to run errands, shopping etc.

Best boyfriend.
Took 2 weeks leave just to make sure that I'm well taken care of <3

Shopped too long so we had late dinner at Thai Express Paragon.

thai fried squid in sweet sauce

spicy sukiyaki clear noodles

I had the thai green curry laksa with seafood :)

and ending with my favorite thai express dessert- chendol in a cup! :)
love those red rubies and jackfruit slices in them. Ought to try if you haven't.

Will be in Aus and NZ trip cancelled :(
