New room, New life!

Yes! After three gruesome weeks of renovating, my room is FINALLY completed.
Instead of going for the usual "Extreme" red outfit, i have turned to white, white and white.... That is all thanks to my "Designer" sister.

Not to say that she designed it badly, but instead, i was pretty greatful that she gave quite a bit of advices to me. To achieve the current state of my room - Designer class tables with classy cabinets, jus lacks the little red in the blood. :(

Oh, she did mentioned that i should get RED items to doll up the room instead. So she volunteered to get me a red bedsheet---A MICKEY MOUSE one... True enough its RED but... U will see it below. :)

Nevertheless i am so happy with the results. Finally i got a working table and a whole lot of space for me to store my stuffs. That is, also with the help of emptying "unwanted trashes" out of my room and into the dustbin. :)

Also, with the help of the room reno, i am able to derive my new year resolution.

"NOT TO TAKE/GET/BUY THINGS THAT ARE NOT USEFUL/WILL NOT BE USED"

I find that i have lotsa unnecessary stuffs. Like stuff toys, some i tried to "catch" in arcades and many i got it from weddings. Old HP boxes, i keep them even though my hp is spoilt. even the spoilt hp is inside. Things that are free gifts, like photo albums, notebook, 1997 diary from M1, blah blah. They are good to get for free, but once you dun used them, they take up space. Yet you dun bear to throw them coz they "might be" useful some day. So keep, keep, keep, keep until 2-3 years. Ultimately, then end up in the dustbin.

So i am stop going to pick up such items. Not going to spent $$$ on those arcade "Winne the Pooh" catcher. Not going to buy things that looks good to have but are useless...

Oh, a photo of my new reno'ed room:


Nice cabinet of nine. It would have been better if they are RED!?!


Check out the MICKEY MOUSE bedsheet!!! lol

Thank you CF!

I dedicate this window to thank CF for making me very nice "bahu" rolls for me yesterday!

We were having a casual lunch together over at North Canal Road, [Mmm... Sidetrack a bit. We had some nice prawn noodles there which i pretty like. This thursday we going to eat Broadway prawn noodles along temple street!!! :)] when we started to talk about new year goodies and she mentioned that she is going to make some prawn rolls. I told her that i love bahu ones but always cannot find. Then next thing i know, i was holding to a box of handmade "bahu" roll... Ohhh.. so nice of her. :)

Oh, didnt managed to take a photo coz.... it already in my stomach!!! lol

Christmas at JHVVN's place!

Its great when good friend get together and its even better when there are prezzies to open!!! So we were at JHVVN's place over the weekend before Christmas. (I was in New Caledonia on christmas day, so i cant be there on that day right?)

Christmas dinner was BBQ food and other brought by everyone. Didnt know it "POTLUCK" in the first place. Got lotsa stuffs for the dinner. [DH u have to pay me the spag and stuffs!!!] lol. But BBQ wasnt a really good idea coz we had to wait quite a while for the food to be cooked. I brought marinated chicken wings, pork slices and scallops... Got helped from josh with the marinate though. lol. He got all those funny ideas in marinating. And they turn out quite nice!



JHVVN's nice looking dining table.


Christmas tree we got for them last year!

Nice hor the tree, it was a 2meter high tree if i am not wrong. We shared quite a bit of $$$ to get that coz we all feel that a tree have to be tall to look nice and it is indeed! Especially with the simple and nice decors on the trees.

After the nice food, we sat down and start to open our prezzies!!! First of all, a photo of our prezzies!


JHVVN with their prezzie.


DH and his prezzies,


CF will never forget her prezzie was wrapped in her tote bag that she brought! WS didnt even bother to wrap for her! Poor CF...




JHVVN and the Bingo set, Addidas perfume and thumb drive that he wants and a Digital Photo Frame from me n WS. (Its the most ex prezzie!!!)




CF and her skin care products, scarf and water bottle. (The water bottle is nice hor!~ Jus a bit not suitable to bring out of work though. :P)




WS and his... OMG... was is that look??? "VIBRO PEN", Mini marjong set and Ultra Cool Laptop Cooler. (Nice hor!)




DH and his T-shirt and Sports towel, CD holder and Decanter (Most worth while present but i was lucky to get it in a sale! :P)
In the end i got a REHAB game from DH,

Finally...

Yes i finally sitting down in front of my laptop trying to post again. So sorry for those people who came around to read but left empty handed. I will try to post regulary again since i got "sniper" up and running again. yay~

As usually i will post the most recent "happenings"
So i will post this first~

--==Rabbit Seafood Restuarant==--
Location: Far East Plaza, the one opp Taka.

Came to this place when Josh and i were shopping around in Orchard. Got myself a "Braun Baffel" belt coz i kinda misplace mind. lol. Many thanks to singtel with its Tangs voucher that i won in a lucky draw. :) It the one with the huge "BULL" one. I was thinking, if i am going to spent so much money buying a belt, must at least make sure people know i spend so much loh. :P In this case, i guessed its a bit "over" since a short sighted man will be able to see it from far even. lol.

Back to my Rabbit Seafood. Mmm... rabbit and seafood sounds a bit "sala" leh... Turns out its Rabbit brand Abalone and stuffs, just the horse brand. People know horses, how come nobody know rabbit???

This humble restuarant at the second floor of the building surely dun sounds as good as its name. Looking more like kopi tiam stalls that sells food in Sim Lim or Queensway Shopping Centre. But you will be surprised when you step in!


This is the pic of the menu. Small in size, but Big in value!

Abalone at the price of below 12 bucks!!! They serve braised abalone at wholesales price, bundled with rice, tea and a small bowl of dessert. But being not a fan of abalone, i didnt go for it. Got a Jap rice fried rice with abalone and top shell with scallop and XO sauce.


Abalone fried rice

The fried rice got the "Wok" smell which is nice. Didnt see much abalone though but i dun really mind. The fried rice is simple yet tasty, and especially great with the XO sauce!

Josh had the "Buddle jumps over the wall". I highly recommend this coz i fin it very worth while! For $9.50, there are sharkfins, scallop, abalone, fish maw, mushroom, blah blah blah, so much things! Further more it taste great! lol

End up i had to order the sharkfins soup as i really think its worth the $$$.

Turns out its not that bad, but a bit salty to my liking. :P


"Buddah Jumps over the Wall"


Sharkfins soup

Next up, Christmas at JHVVN place.
