Bro's last dinner in SG

My bro went back to Jakarta on Tuesday and it was quite a rush at the airport, probably because we had to take out some stuff from his luggage because it was too heavy!

But we still had time to go for dinner, we wanted to go to Burger King but it was closed for renovation. At the end, we settled for Ajisen Ramen.



Bye bye bro... come again next time when your LPR is approved! Keep all fingers crossed!!

Bro's 2nd last dinner in Singapore

Since my bro was going back to Jakarta the next day, my hubby thought we should go somewhere rather special for dinner. He brought us to this place near the old airport. There's a western food place over there, the location is really secluded but apparently they are quite popular just from word-of-mouth.

Anyway, the famous thing that they have in that place is this buffalo wings that is super spicy. They have level 1 to level 10, 10 being the most spicy! Actually this is not the first time I came here with my hubby, we brought his dad here before as well. And if I remember correctly, we ordered level 4 then, and it wasn't that spicy.

So when we were ordering the foods, my hubby got kinda yaya.. he wanted to order level 10!! *gasp* The guy who took our order looks quite disturbed.. ha ha ha.. he asked us if we eat there before, and we told them that we ordered level 4 before. At the end, we settled with a dozen of level 7 buffalo wings, some mini burgers and the mouth watering cheese fries :)


When the buffalo wings came, I could smell chilli in the air! Sooooo hot smelling!! Soon, we were digging into it and nearly died! My sis and I couldn't even finish 1.. my hubby at the end finished 3 or 4 by himself ha ha.. we tried really hard to finish it because the guy who took our order kept on coming back to our table! I think he must be laughing inside!! Thank God he stopped us from ordering level 10 :D

At the end, we had to take-away a few pieces of that deadly buffalo wings, together with some burgers that we couldn't finish (because we drank too much water!). But if anything good came out of it, my brother went home with sexy lips :D

Haagen Dazs Dinner

Last Saturday we went to Tampines Mall to watch Monster VS Aliens 3D. The movie is soooooo cool! I want a pet like the blue blob thinge :D

Afterward, we went shopping and we didn't know what to eat so we decided to eat ice cream for dinner heheh..

They obviously come in peace...



WARNING!

Temptations ahead...



Don't say I never warn you..

Obviously, we went home with satisfied tummies :D

Dying Husband

Look at the amount of pills that he gotta take!



Joke aside: Pills are real, dying is not :-)

Bye bye Pratip

Perhaps our last meal together for 2009?


Some pictures from our times together.. :)

Taken

We went to Cineleisure last night to eat at Es Teler 77 and watch "Taken". I thought it was some alien kidnapping movie, but turned out it's just normal human kidnapping another human movie.. haha..

The movie is quite good, heroic father and cute daughter.. the father basically killed everyone who is involved in his daughter's kidnapping... tsk tsk tsk...

Moral of the story: Don't talk to strangers and don't share cab with strangers!!

Wolverine and StarTrek

Over the last few days, we watched Wolverine and StarTrek. I think Wolverine is ok, kinda sad story, but still worth watching especially if you are a Marvel fan :)

StarTrek is really a great movie! You should watch it even if you are not a StarTrek fan.. I'm not a fan, but when my bro asked me to go and watch, I just said ok. It was a good decision as I really like the movie :)

So many things to do, so little resources

When we bought our house, we didn't do much renovation other than repainting it and removing some shelves. And now, I start to feel that I wanna make some changes to the house, like changing all the doors to light color and also the wall skirting to some other colors! I really think that the white floor and wooden color wall skirting combination is really not matching! :(

On top of that, I wanna get rid of all hand-me-down furnitures because they just simply doesn't match the house and their design is kinda "traditional". How to throw away all these things tactfully without offending the original owner? Sigh.. I need to make them spoilt "naturally". One of the items that is already showing sign of breakdown is the shoe-rack, the magnet portion broke! HAHAH I promise I don't have anything to do with it! But now I can't decide if I should just buy a nicer white color shoe rack or whether I should get a contractor to make a built-in one, maybe with attached chair so that people can sit down and wear shoes :)

I also wanna change the built-in wardrobe in my room and then make a dressing table because the current wardrobe has sliding door and it's really noisy and troublesome in the morning when we are rushing to go to work. Both of us have gotten our fingers stuck in between the sliding doors at some point of time. This sliding door design is simply no good and not safe!

I also want to change the kid's room wardrobe door. Currently it's like orangy peach and I want to change it to white color, to make it more matching with the rest of the house.

On top of that, I also want to change some of our own furnitures too! Like the sofa and coffee table.. haahah.. this is becoming like changing the whole house! I wonder how much $$$$ all these will cost! :(

Malaysia Road Trip April 2009

My brother needs to get out of Singapore for 5 days because his social visit pass is going to expire, so we planned to go on a driving trip to Malaysia, simply because my husband wants to drive! He actually planned to drive until Penang, I just can't stand the feeling of sitting in the car from Penang to Singapore, I think my backside will be as flat and stiff as a washing board! So at the end, we decided to drive up to Cameroon Highland but alas all the hotels are fully booked. Apparently, Malaysians like to go to Cameroon Highland as well during holiday period.

At the end, we only managed to book hotels in Malacca and KL *boring boring*. It was quite a long and dark journey to Malacca, because there weren't many street lights even on the North-South highway, and our GPS kept on bringing us away from the highway as if it has a mind of its own!

We left home about 8PM and reached Malacca about 10 or 11 PM (can't remember.. memory problem!) and checked in to the hotel. I soon crashed into bed and refused to move anymore, but my hubby and my brother still went around the area to check out the place. Well, nothing abnormal, this is what usually happens when we go on holiday. I will be sleeping or watching TV in the room while my hubby goes explore and buy food back.. hahaha.. :D

The next day, we went to this mall near our hotel. I think it's called Pahlawan or something, and my brother wants to try fish spa. I'm terrified of it so I just watched them and of course took photos of them.



My bro said it's ticklish, I think it's just disgusting... why can't they just go for normal pedicure!? Afterwards, we went to the historical area of Malacca. We even went to a museum!



We also climbed a very tall stairs to go up a building that used to be a church at some point of time in Malacca's history.



And my brother, being silly as he is, must take silly photos!



At night we went to watch Wolverine there. It cost like 4 bucks if I remember correctly! So cheap!!!

Next day we will be driving to KL, but we planned to pass by Port Dickson on the way. The beach was having low tide and there were lots of crab holes on the sand!



Then the camera battery went flat at this place! And the spare battery was flat too! ARRRGGGGHH what's the use of having spare battery when it's flat? So anyway, we hung out at that place and we kinda like it and decided that we should go to Port Dickson for holiday next time.

When we reached the KL hotel, it was quite late as well. And my brother of course needs to stress-test his extra bed.



So next day first destination in KL is of course the famous twin tower at KLCC! We couldn't get the ticket to go up because we were there quite late. The officer told us that usually the tickets ran out by 10 AM! Soooo kiasu lah!!



I can't remember what we did after KLCC *memory problem* but maybe we stayed there until pretty late.. Next day, being lazy as I am, I stayed in the hotel while they go to Batu Caves... good decision because I heard they have to climb up a lot of stairs and even they felt tired after that!

We also went to Genting Highlands since my brother never been there before. The only new thing that I haven't tried is Ripley's Believe It Or Not, but somewhere towards the end of the exhibit, I got the strange feeling that I've actually been there before.. *i really hate my poor memory!*



We also had Korean BBQ at Genting. I thought the portion was quite small when it came, but turned up we were so full after that.



We spent the last day in KL shopping and driving back to Singapore.. tiring journey but really fun :)
