2 Months Glance Into 2011

I am indeed a very lousy blogger... My last post was on the last day of 2010 and this would be my first post for 2011. I've been tring to write something but I keep making excuses for myself and keep saying tomorrow. So finally... I've decided to glue myself to the couch till I update my blog with this post. January and February have come and gone. Much have happened and now, all I can give is a brief glance of the past 2 months of my life...

Myself...

Nothing really extraordinary happened. I guess that explains why there was no regular blog entry. The only change I think is that I've switched my mobile service provider of more than 10 years, Maxis, to join the DiGi family. I'm still using the same mobile number but under a different service provider.

My family...

Everyones pretty excited about my new nephew. By now he's 6 months old already. He's very adorable and cheerful. He smiles a lot too! My youngest sister always comments that he has very luscious lips. Here's what he looks like...

So now I have a pair of beautiful niece and a handsome nephew...

Celebrations & Events...

My New Year was very quiet. I had a countdown dinner at D'Italiane Kitchen, Jaya 33 together with my hubby, brother, Angie and Nigel. The dinner was yummy (once again I failed to capture the food pics) and by midnight, me and my hubby were already home to watch the fireworks display of various locations from the balcony of our home.

After that was Chinese New Year. I always looked forward to this day as this is the day when the whole family is together having really yummy home cooked food and a whole day filled with fun and laughter. When my sister, cousins and niece gets together....they become a bunch of loonies...

Funny photo session with my sister, cousins and niece

This year we all took turns to take our family photo with my grandma.

My recent event would be my youngest sister's convocation. It was a very proud moment for my family. All of us went to witness this very special day.

Working and Holiday Trips...

I've only gone down South for my working trip and I've also managed to spend 2 days in Singapore to accompany my hubby for his company's Annual Dinner. Nothing much done in Singapore... just the usuals...Geylang for my favourite frog porridge, Bugis Junction for my sweet potato tempura, Takashimaya for Takopochi and bought my Campbell's Vegetarian Vegetable canned soup. The only thing extra was my bottle of Ferragamo perfume and my Charles & Keith handbag... it was so cheap!!

My next holiday trip was to Melaka with my family during the Chinese New Year holiday. Though it was a short trip but we had quality fun time together. My hubby and my brother in-law became durian freaks during this trip...durian cendol, durian cream puffs and durian candy.

My Current Hobby...

My hubby and I recently became a proud owner of the XBox Arcade Slim 360 and we've been spending quite an amount of time playing XBox games. Our current interest is... Left 4 Dead.

We both have our own controllers so that we could play the 2-player games together. Any games you want to recommend to me?

Music...
I'm currently obsessed with Bruno Mars and Katy Perry.

Movies...

I've only watched 1 movie in the theater so far and it's "I Am Number Four". To me it's a great movie and I highly recommend you to watch it too.

Well, I guess this summarizes my first 2 months of the year 2011. I am actually looking forward for this year because I've got a feeling that this is going to be a GREAT year for me. I will try my best to keep my blog frequently updated and hopefully with good materials and not boring ones.

Yummy Singapore

My recent trip to Singapore was a very short one. There are only 2 main purpose: to bring my hubby home and to eat my favourite food there..."kam heong frog porridge". We arrived at 12 something in the morning but that did not stop us from driving all the way to Geylang, Lorong 19. Though there so many restaurants offering the same food, but only this one offered the taste I was craving for. Even when I'm in JB, I would definitely find time to drive into Singapore just to satisfy my craving.

Eminent Frog Porridge

I was too excited that I forgot to snap the photo BEFORE we began eating.

For the next day's brunch, my friend introduced to us her favourite Fish Head Noodle spot. It's located at Aliwal Street.

Not comparing with my favourite Fish Head Noodle in KL, this is yummy in its own way. Next stop is Orchard Road. It's not about the shopping that attracts me, it's the roadside ice-cream.

It has to be Walls or my younger sis would kill me.

It only cost me SGD1 for a big piece like that. Sometimes along this busy road, we get to see interesting way of advertising too.

After browsing through the new 313 shopping mall, once again we headed towards Geylang to try the Mee Sua.

For Singapore standard, they're not too bad. To end the day, we packed Soya Bean Curd with Oil Stick to go and my friend said this shop is the best in town.

On the last morning, we went to Ang Mo Kio to eat some yummy seafood fried noodle. No photos available coz when I remembered, the plates were empty already. Before we leave Singapore, my friend dropped me at Bugis Walk. I just need to buy the Fried Golden Needle Mushroom and Fried Sweet Potatoes from my favourite tempura stall here. Once again, no photos available due to the rush. Maybe next time.
