My present from Kelvin !
My mom and auntie went church with me yesterday...the above was taken at the entrance. I brought otah, but sadly, the amt was not enough. =)
From Left to Right (back row): My parents-in-law, my mom, my auntie
From Left to Right (front row): Jinwei (Kit's brother), Jinwei's girlfren, me and hubby
After we left church, we immediately went to pick up our logcake. I ordered durian logcake from Goodwood...*yummy* ! Then rushed back to prepare stuff...actually, i didn't cook anything. I simply ordered more otahs and the logcake. Kelvin cooked his award winning curry, bought a stuffed rice chicken, and Kenneth cooked pork chop...*delicious i muz say*...and abt 7 plus, we started our dinner ! My godma (kenneth's mom) came too..hehe....
After dinner, we had our fav activity...mahjong ! We played till 5am...and afterwhich, the guys ate AGAIN..
Of cuz, there's exchange of gifts...Kenneth bought a pendant for me and Kelvin brought me the LV wallet..
Well, of cuz the main reason for celebratin Xmas is Jesus's birth...saw the caption at Orchard that day and found it really true..."He's the reason for the season"...indeed...

Out of my Mind

Seriously, I muz have been out of my mind.
I can't seem to get to sleep last night...thinking about my finances...and i muz have been out of my mind to blow such a hole in my pocket on a bag !
I can't believe i'm so silly...i still have to give ang paos for CNY, still have to support my car, still have to pay bills...and not that my bills are small in the 1st place ! Oh gosh...what am i gonna do ?
No doubt it's classy and nice...but i already have many bags...no doubt it's THE bag that i've always wanted...but now ? buy already then dunno how to pay...of course I don't have to eat grass, but definitely have to save as much as I can in the upcoming months !
I don't know...i can't seem to step out of the shop yesterday...i'm in love with it...and now, I'm in debt...

Me and my LOEWE



I went to Taka and was about to go home, but then decided to pop by Loewe..that happened to be the most expensive trip of my life...
The minute i got into the shop, this bag caught my eye. Why ? Cuz i've been on their website and this is exactly the ONE that i want ! I didn't expect it to be in S'pore now ! I went forward to grab it and the salesgirl told me it's juz arrived, on the shelf for less than 1/2 hr !
I started to parade round the shop with the bag, and another lady was eyeing it too. But since i didn't let go, she bought a black one instead.
I kept pondering and pondering, for more than 30 mins, before i decided to buy it. To make it worse, this is like the only piece they have, and the salesgirl said if I dun buy it, i can be very sure it will be gone within an hour. I know, cuz i see many people walking in to see, and since this piece is the everlasting and original Loewe colour, how can people dun wan ?
I was quite amazed that I bought it. Seriously...i mean, the price is an appalling $1990....for a bag ? But i convinced myself that this is THE bag, and really, it's my only piece of designer bag. At the cashier, one salesgirl asked which one i took, then she said, "You're one lucky girl. My customer is gonna scream, cuz she wans this piece too !"
True enough, after 2 hrs of walking around, i went back wanting to show my frens, and guess wat ? All the bags were gone, except a few limited editions that cost more than 2k...




So, this is me and my bag..hubby not exactly v pleased, but hey...it's my own $$...
Every girl will have a bag that she wants. Be it Prada, LV, or Gucci....as for me, it's me and my LOEWE !

Dinner @ Fosters



Well, I'm not sure if anyone of you have had dinner @ Fosters (Holland V), but it's been one of my fav eating places eversince i chanced upon it a few yrs back..
Me, Kit Kit and Kelvin went there for dinner last night. Had their grilled pork chop, Kit had herbal chicken, and kelvin had mixed grill. He said their mixed grill is very much better than Jack's place ! Of cuz...they have standard wan...and i had a glass of their ice lemon tea. It's heavenly...very different from the ice tea sold elsewhere.
Went home feeling satisfied indeed !
And if anyone is free in the afternoon, their Devonshire Tea set is a MUST !
