It’s my 27th birthday today! Boss brought me out for a sumptuous dinner at Gyu-Kaku last weekend. He made an absolute right choice!

Here’s my outfit breakdown! Just got a new hair color and decided to grow out my fringe. I braided my fringe to keep it away from my face. You know how annoying it can get. I love how it turns out.

We took their Warai set as recommended by their staff. It’s gonna be my new favorite eatery! The food is good, every dish is well-marinated and their staff are extremely friendly and attentive. They would walk around every table, making sure that everything is in place. They even took care of little details like shifting my glass when it got into my way. Absolutely 5-star service.

I love every dish! But if I had to choose, my favorite would be their Horenso salad, teriyaki chicken, lamb chop, kimchi and the sinful Gyu-Kaku ice cream! Super satisfying! You would be surprised that the atmosphere is non-smoky and non-greasy. We totally enjoyed ourselves, it’s worth every penny. *rubs tummy*

Lovely recommendation and treat from Boss! My personal chef for the day hee hee! Thank you my love!

Had my ups and downs in 2011 and I think my luck was pretty bad this year. Nevertheless, here are a few highlights worth mentioning.

• Had an awesome trip with the #epicbkk gang for new year! But I fell sick on the second day!
• Baked for Boss for the first time. More to come! I wanna learn cooking haha!
• Boss and I went for our first cruise trip and won more than $1,000 from the casino lol!
• Made a major career switch to the beauty industry.
• Planned a poker-themed birthday celebration for Boss. Even bought him a new iPad 2, which is with me now haha!
• Had my first flea market with BFF.
• Got more pretty clothes by my apparel sponsor, TheBlogShop.
• First baking session with the girls!
• Turned into a victim of DBS debit card fraud. Thank God I managed to get my money back!
• Attended Lady Gaga’s performance for the first time, all thanks to BFF, Nuffnang and SingTel.
• Finally obtained my Class 3 driving licence, after procrastinating for erm… 8 years?
• BFF and I had our Girls Gone Wild in KL trip without the boys! Woohoo!
• After 4 years, we finally got engaged. He popped the question on our 4th year anniversary.
• Met Kim Hyun Joong for the second time. I was right in front and he chose the gift that I bought for him ????~! On cloud nine!
• Did indoor sky diving for the first time! Though not the real one, but still it’s extremely thrilling!
• Attended 2PM and Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA)! 2PM is my favorite Korean boy band, totally love them! Wish I had bought the mosh pit ticket though. *smacks head* MAMA was the best cos I bought mosh pit ticket and was standing less than 2m away from Suju, SNSD, Beast, KHJ and all! Like OMGEE! They are like right in my face! I can die happy now.
• Got our flat! After like a gazillion tries. Can’t imagine we have to pay the loan for 20 over years. Slaves for HDB!

Here’s wishing all my readers a great 2012 ahead!

Merry Christmas! Another year gone, another year older. Here’s part 2 on what I’ve been up to recently!

2PM Hands Up Asia Tour

Omo~ finally got to see my favorite Kpop boy group 2PM! Totally love their music and dance styles. Their songs are super catchy! Didn’t managed to go for their hi-5 event though cos it’s frigging far and falls on a weekday fml!

The finale was awesome! Both Taecyeon and Chansung started taking off their tops lol! One lucky girl managed to grab the tee that Taecyeon threw towards her. She was like screaming at the top of her lungs hahaha! I think I might do that too if Wooyoung threw his. I hope I’ll be able to see them again!

Mnet Asian Music Awards

This has got to be the best concert I have ever went! All thanks to my friend, I managed to purchase a Pen B ticket. I went to stalk them the day before but only managed to see Park Bom lol. Missed the chance to see Park Ji Hoo, who happened to be at MBS too.

On the day itself, I went to queue with my friend at 630am. Her friends started queuing up 2 days before the concert so we went to take over them. Super tiring and lethargic and the attitude of the staff didn’t help much. They were extremely rude and treated us like juveniles. Anyway, we were made to wait under the hot sun for more than 12 hours. You know how frustrating it is when some idiots rather go by the book than using their pathetic brains to think.

Come to think of it, everything’s worth the wait! We were standing less than 2m away from the artistes’ sitting area! Look at da awesome pictures I’ve taken!

Unfortunately, the security stopped us from taking photos 20 minutes to the show. Damn double standard! But still, I went home feeling extremely happy. Wished 2PM and Big Bang were there though!

Power Plate at Selective Fitness

Selective Fitness is a specialized boutique Power Plate fitness studio located at one of the shophouses along Tanjong Pagar Road. BFF and I were invited for the trial classes to experience their intense workout. What’s so unique is their Power Plate machines which vibrates throughout the workout and helps to improve blood flow and tone the muscles.

We were like screaming for mercy almost every lesson lol. At times, I couldn’t even feel my arms or legs anymore. With the help from Chris, the personal trainer, I managed to push myself to the limit. At the end of each lesson, my legs start to ache and it gets worse the next day. The aches took a few days to go away and I can feel that my muscles are more toned! I’d probably need more lessons to see an improvement.

Check out their Facebook page and sign up for a free trial!

Marina Bay Singapore Countdown 2012

It’s coming to the end of 2011! I went to Suntec City for the wishing sphere project organized by Marina Bay. This year, 20,000 of the wishing spheres, all marked with the hand-written wishes made by Singaporeans, will be floated onto the waters and become come part of a visual arts installation at Marina Bay – the Bay of Hope and Light.

I’ve penned down my wishes! Anyone heading down to Marina Bay for the countdown?

Here’s the outfit I wore that day. *sucks in tummy*

Have been really busy these days and couldn’t find the time to blog more. Wish I can be a full time blogger lol! Anyway, remember to join my giveaway!

Inspired by BFF, I’m penning a bite-size blog post on the activities which I’ve been busy with recently. Another reason is I have way too many backlogs to clear :x

Halloween at Universal Studios

My photo editing not bad right? Spooky eh? This year’s Halloween was spent at Universal Studios. It’s my 3rd time there lol! I swear this win hands down all other Halloween events I’ve been to.

Walk along the eerie streets and some random undead will scream at you. The haunted house was the scariest of all and we had to queue for 45 minutes. It was worth the wait though. There were like dead bodies hanging in mid-air and you can’t avoid body contact at all fml.

Journey of Indulgence with Haagen-Dazs

Thanks to Smith, I got onboard the Haagen-Dazs’s Journey of Indulgence with BFF, CCB and Tiphanie. There were free flow of Haagen-Dazs ice cream, champagne and chocolates. *yummeh* What a lovely experience!

BonJapan @ Orchard Central

Last year, I attended BonJapan’s media event held at SMU. Nearly a year later, they had expanded and opened a retail store at Orchard Central! What you can find in the store are exclusive snacks, soft toys, figurines and lots more! I love the kids beer and edamame pie soup, damn unique and really yummy! Check out BonJapan at Orchard Central #06-15/16/17!
