Lost In Beauty-

Saturday

Introduction: Marina Sqaure KBox (New KBox Outlet)

The sound system was superb, worked even in small rooms! Anyway, their smallest room wasn't that small, as least not in comparison to Clementi's and Jurong East's.

Nicely decorated and looked at this...

Still can't figure out what I'm trying to say? Take a look at the second picture then.

I'm sitting next to the escalator! Don't worry, I've checked it out, it's a one-way mirror, meaning you can see ppl out there but not vice versa. Cool right? Nice room really.

And what really got me excited was their frequently and speedy updated songs. Especially when I saw..

S.H.E's "SuperModel" on tv!

And of course, not missing out their main hit from their new debut album!

Ok lah, you can say me slow lah. I had my first Carl's Jr meal at Marina Square. It's abit sinful lah, I know. But considering how long I've not engage in a fast food indulgence and all that exercises, spare mi off k? Haa. Anyway, I don't want to try it when it's 10 years later. Bleh.

Alright, I guessed I still feel a "slight sin" afterall. But take a look at that!

One thing for sure, I've not regretted! Cos their meals' uniquely different from any other ordinary fast food you can find in Singapore. Their servings' huge! And similarly the mushrooms had sizes to complement the burger. On top of that, generous servings! That's probably why we only ordered a combo (Just imagine my "appetity" Dear only ordered one. Haa.). 2 burgers would definitely be too much, especially for girls. The fish & chips were of lower standards compared to the burgers. Probably you should try their chiken strips instead. Go try!

Ratings: /5 (Probably, the last one is cos I prefer healthier food?)

Anyway,

HaPpY NeW YeAr tO aLL mY dEaR fReNs, mY beLovEd siStErS aNd eVeRyoNe!!!

Friday

It's been quite long since I've last blogged. Oops! But anyway, not to disappoint everyone, I'll make this a photoblog then!

Ok, n I actually forgot to wish u guys a Merry XmaS! So here goes: Merry Belated Xmas and Pre-Happy New Year! Haa.

Alright, here goes all the photos..

Went to Dear's gathering cum Xmas Celebration last min. Didn plan to go at first. Cos was abit sick. But anyway, it turned out to be fun! The group photo, excluding Ian, Ivan, Reza and some guys.

The point here is actually to capture the group with e nice Xmas tree but then..

Dear's house 7 feet Xmas tree. Very nice! One of the attractions of the day!

Guess who's the main person in the pic? Or rather who's the main mammal in the pic? Haa..

From left: Joel, Jun Hao, Joey, Ching Guan n Hong Han.

The sinful meal which consists of very very nice fruit salad(prepared by Joe-l/-y) and pizza-ssss.
Although the food was not tt Xmasy, the companion was really great! What more could I ask for?

A typical "Guys Activity" -- PS II. And the game? Winning 11.

Us!

Cheery Hong Han, Muscular Joel, Bubbly Andrew & Cute Me. Bleh.

Dear and I went to ROM. Don't worry, definitely not a rash decision.. cos we were invited! Haa.

28th December -- My cousin's, Felicia's ROM!!

Her very nice hair! Huh? How does she looked like? Keep ya in suspense.. But indeed, she was really gorgeous and beautiful tt day!

Moi Brother and Andrew! Nonono, they were not the ones getting married.

My mum, my HAPPY aunt, beautiful cousin and me.

With her husband-to-be! He's a Malaysian by the way. I was wondering why their solemnization room didn't have those names like "Cherish", "Love" etc until I realized it was a private suite, which means all of us could enter and view the whole process (normal ones only permit the witnesses). But of course, more ex.

There's even a walk-in procedure! Like the real one in church. In addition, they even prepared the walk-in music. Cool!

Exchanging of rings. Wonder how many carats. Hee.

My cousin's family with mine (Dad's gotta work tt day).

Fort Canning Park for pictures after that. Me, Mum and Bro out in the open under the scorching sun.

Moi cousin and me! How time flies! We were always on good terms although she's much older. But then again, she looks young huh?

3 of us. By the way, I liked her gown and shoes. She really looked good that day.

Andrew and mi with the couple!

We requested for the proper proposal photo.

And of course, the intimate ones. Haa.

Actually there's more photos but then, I'll just post some. After all that, we went to the Grand Plaza Park Royal hotel to have a buffet lunch. Not bad.

After lunch, we (Andrew, bro n mi)felt guilty. Haa. But of course, they were much more guilty than mi. Went to Hyatt gym with Joel in the late afternoon (without my bro. So much for feeling guilty). Hahaha. Anyway, Joel's real good, can be a gym trainer. Learnt alot from him. I shall appoint him as my trainer! Muahaha~

Anyway, after gym, we went to take some photos of the Xmas lights in Orchard before they're removed.

Dear and me. Still as energetic after like 2 plus hrs of gym session.

Body builder Joel? And me.

Joel's house after all that. Cosy! I liked the little bar, not forgetting the Barcardi Superior. So strong! Haa. N his nice little Xmas tree.

Too bad Joey wasn't home. Or else, there'll be a duplicate in the photo. Haa.. They were twins!

Well, that's all for now! It's late. Gotta retire to bed. *Yawn*

Monday

Hello!!

It's been quite some time since the last post and there's simply so much to write about! But the most interesting has got to be the trip to Bangkok. Shopping there was absolutely heavenly, what more could a girl ask for? I shan't go into the details of what can be found/bought there, go there and find out for yourself! (And ask me along ^^)

I've posted a few of the photos that we took in Bangkok, a few of the 200+ photos taken using Andrew's new Lumix camera. And hopefully there are no duplicates with those posted in PS and Violet's blogs. Though that isn't likely as Violet's camera is filled with pictures of Daryl and Andrew kept taking pictures of ......

Isn't the hotel spacious? We were all quite surprised at our large rooms cosidering the low rates we paid. Anyway, here's a pic of PS and me upon arrival in our hotel rooms.

It's the same room! Though JR and Andrew would be the ones sitting there at night having their room service supper... tsk tsk...
Anyway, room service is like S$4 per order!

Our first meal in a Thai restaurant in MBK shopping centre. The food was authentic local cuisine and too extreme for us - too salty, too spicy or too sweet. Needless to say, it was our last meal at the place.

This is like the posh area of Siam, with boutiques and 5-star hotels all clustered together. Even the toilets are 5-star too!

Is the Christmas tree nice? We didn't realise we were in Hyatt hotel until later on. Anyway, this area is useless for shopping... headed to Siam Square

One of the many "cameo" pictures which we took! We had dinner at Black Canyon Coffee and would return there for another 2 meals over the next few days!
It's PS's favourite food place too! Dun worry PS! There's a branch in Singapore!
(vio n D', dun mind the pic ok^^)

MBK centre - We went there every single day of our trip! This photo doesn't show how big it actually is. Let's say from Wisma to Cineleisure with seven floors of small shops selling everything at bargain prices! I still miss the place....

Dun be misled by the seemingly clear view! The air there is very dusty especially during the daytime. Very very dusty.

Happy twentieth birthday PS and JR !!

Chatuchak Market - it's the famous weekend market of Bangkok and a definite must-go! I would rate this as the best place to shop!

The hotel lobby.

Absolutely delicious!!! So good that PS, JR, Andrew and me all dabaoed it back to Singapore! Oh, and it only costs $3+ for this huge plate.

A taxi-driver drove us to this restaurant in Silom. It's somewhat secluded and I've no idea where it is located! But the food is pretty good.

All of us were certainly glad to be seated after the frantic shopping we did that day! It's crazy but thoroughly enjoyable :)

The prawns in Bangkok are HUGE !! One prawn can almost fill up a whole plate and they taste so yummy!!

Bangkok's Chinatown. There're quite a few good and value-for-money restaurants here. Try the shark's fin, bird's nest and prawns!

We're at the Grand Central Palace. Some tourist guide stated that slippers were forbidden but evidently they were not!

Vio and Daryl looking at the carvings on the roofs of the buildings.

Still no idea what is happening here.

The decorations and carvings on the walls and roofs are just so intricate and beautiful....

The 3 of us posing

Erm...

The 6 of us actually managed to squeeze into a taxi!
=> money saved for shopping :)

Finally we found someone to take a group photo of us!

JR, Andrew and I went to the top of the tallest building in Bangkok. This is one of the many "backgrounds" for tourist to take pictures in!

No pink tuk-tuks in Bangkok... but there are pink taxis though!

One of Andrew's and my favourite pictures!

Our free drinks at the lounge on the 83rd storey of the building!

Our daily breakfast consists of -
dou jiang you tiao

Andrew's breakfast

River cruise along the Chao Phraya River. This was so so fun!

Can you spot anything?

There are really numerous temples in Bangkok, and most of them are very pretty. Like this one! (If it's a temple)

Feeding the fishes in the river . They were practically flying in the air to reach the bread I was holding!

I've no idea what place this is but it's awe-inspiring. Can anyone help?

Finally, a visit to where else but MBK for some last-min shopping before flying back to Singapore.

See ya again Bangkok !
