Diary Design & Wedding D & D @ P.S Cafe

Actually not many know that besides doing Freelance Make Up, i am also helping a friend in Wedding Planning and Coordination... am doing this freelance too. Last nite, we had our 'Company' D & D at P.S Cafe in Orchard. Very high class place and the food is yummy!

The ambience is nice... and whats interesting is that the waitress IC of serving us is an Ang Mo... interesting yea...

I am not someone who is into Western food (PS Cafe serves Western food), so i chose something 'safe' to eat.. Breaded Chicken in a basket. If you look at the picture below, its num (2). It looks simple and nothing yummy abt it... well at least thats wat i thot la... BUT.... it comes with 2 sauces (Cheese and some Asian sauce)... and if you go with the Cheese, its yummy-licious!! I dont really like cheese acty, but last nite, i finished the whole cup of cheese! it just taste delicious with the breaded chicken! Acty, the breaded chic alone is alrdy yummy! woah!


I also ordered their mushroom soup (num 1). Its thick but not salty enuff... still yummy lah.. :)
Our dessert were Triple Chocolate Blackout (3) and Coffee Eclair. (3) is very yummy too! Didnt quite like the Coffee Eclair even tho would say its also nice.. hahaha.. dont quite like coffee ma.. :)

So the rating for P.S Cafe at Palais Ressanience (not sure if this is the correct spelling) at level 2:

Food : 8.5 out of 10
Deco & Ambience : 8 out of 10
Price : 7 out of 10
Service : 7.5 out of 10
Overall : 8 out of 10

I forgot to say that the prices for the food (main course) range between $20 plus to $60, depending on what you order. Soup is abt $15 (pretty big bowl), dessert should be abt $10 - $15 (if i didnt rem wrongly). They got sides also, but we didnt order cos the portion of the main course is pretty big.. you will surely feel full towards the end.. :)

If you wanna dine at some nice ambience restaurant for some special occassions, try here.. I dont have the number to call but guess you can always check that out online. :)


Anw, since its our D & D, Lily is also in the mdist of updating our webby, we got into a short photo session after the dinner. We took a few nice ones... at least the poses were cool and class... hahah.. but i am posting only 1 here (btw this is not the best hor.. hee...)..

Michela - Fallen Sick

This picture shows a seemingly healthy Michela taking her nap... but the truth is that she was having a high fever when this snapshot was taken. Last nite, she suddenly was running a pretty high fever... Even tho we gave medicine alrdy, but it doesnt seem to work. So we decide to rush her to KKH. At 330am, we took a cab down to the hospital. It was raining cats n dogs at that very moment. Very d r a m a..... lol.

Reached hospital, took blood test and X Ray and they showed that her white blood cells are on the higher end (which shouldnt be for a normal human being) and there are phelgm in her lungs. Doctor said it is Chest Infection (a cold or flu that has gone a little wrong, and serious). Gave her quite a lot of medications (with 2 stronger anti-biotics) and we need to observe her for 3 days. If fever still high, most likely need to admit hospital.

SIGH... gotta really pray, pray and pray... that her fever will totally subside within these 2 days manz... If not, she will have to spend her CNY in hospital. :(

Help me pray pls...

Btw, i didnt sleep a wink thru the nite while MK slept a few hours here and there... I couldnt get to zzz... was pretty worried for Michela.. even after we got home from hospital.. i was still checking on her fever... Now, i am having that insufficient sleep hangover! Gotta go zzzz sooon!


Before i go, just wanna say that yesterday, during my work, saw this lovely word block and decide to take a picture of one of the most amazing words on earth : L O V E.

The bible says that "Love covers a multitude of sins." This is soooo true. Becos of love, God sent His Son. Becos of love, parents sacrifice for their children. Becos of love, people are willing to die for each other. I want to love my family more each day. Love my frens, love my ministry, love my life and love myself! More importantly, I wanna love God more and more every single day. :)

(Taken using "Vintage Cam", a photo app that can be installed for free!)




And this is ME.. signing off using Instagram with a little PS effect. Heeee...

Chaos! :)

Next up is the "Multi Lens" app. You can choose whether you want Vertical or Horizontal (like the one below) as well as how many photos to put in (thnk the max is 6 photos). If you find this one familiar... heheh... yea... its my recent new blog head photo! :) NICE?? :p

Randoms.

Yesterday was considered a 'day-off'' for me. Gotten permission from hubby to buy CNY clothes and he sponsor *GRIN*... So went to Bugis Village and bought a few apparels. Was happy & satisfied but yet tired.

Anw, i still have my MAC make up voucher given by Serene for 2011 bday and it was going to expire on 14 Jan 2012, so specially make a trip down to Taka MAC Store to see if there is anything that i can get there using the voucher. Went in and started looking at their eyeshadow collection. Low and behold, this colour caught my eye...







Its call Shale Satin. Totally love the colour! So without much hesitation, i bought it! Soooo gonna use it soon! :)



After that i wanted to make a trip down to Far East from Wisma... so passed by my favourite brand at Taka... took a snapshot using Instagram effects (i told you i like these effects liaoz! hahah) and here... my new 'love' :)



Anw, i heard that my GST dropped price? slightly less than $4k... *tempted*...


Just few days ago, Monday was Renjie and Isabel's wedding dinner. So took a photo of me and my make up before heading out for the dinner.. here..



I love this make up! and the earrings and the dress too! oh, and my hair! :)






Gonna stop here for nw... have been down with sore throat and bad flu since last Sat. Michela also.. she is well now but i am still in the midst of recovering... pray for me pls...

Thanks and chaos!

*Another 13 days before i turn 18.*

What a way to start 2012! =)

I didnt quite end 2011 properly... meaning that things were in a mess weeks before 2011 ended. We were busy with Michela's room... all the painting and shifting tired us out... so much so that i didnt even do Christmas shopping! Then blink blink..... last day of 2011 liaoz... i remembered telling MK "wow, so fast, today is the last day of the yr!"

But never did i expect to start 2012 in such a good way... Pst Kong preached such a good message...abt Commiting oneself to a local church! I am sure, those that really listened, they will be integrated soon!

Then next was the meet ups and catch ups over a few groups of frens...

1) Ex-PSB gang
Kit was so nice to initiate the meet up and whats more... at her new house! She has such nice and cosy place to stay at... Good designs and choices of colours! William, Mel and even Jessie came! Excited and happy to see them... This grp of ex-colleagues really are one of the closest to me so far in my working life... Treasure them... and i am looking forward to the nex catch up soon at William's!! :p But the only 'inperfect' of that meet up was that we forgot to take a picture tog... booo... nvm nvm.. we shall rememeber to do it the next time. :)

2) Steamboat Dinner at Quentin & Linda's
We haven seen them for a good 6 months acty... and they are so kind to invite us to their house for steamboat fellowship! Specially cooked and boil the soup just for us! How nice of them... :) It was a good catch up in fact... We love them too and will be looking forward to the next meet up again, this time with Darren and Charlotte! :P

Our nice pic with them using my Instagram from ip4s... Really love the effects!




3) This isnt an intentional meet up... in fact it was after today's church service where we 'accidentally' saw each other... It started with Becky thanking me for all that was done for the cg and her.... Immediately, i teared... becos i was touched by her. But felt pretty embarressed that i acty cry so easily! ai yo.... Huixuan ah Huixuan.... :(

Then saw Mingming shortly after that.. 3 of us started chatting and they thank me for not giving up on the cg. Ming said that i totally won her over.. and Becky is so so much more opened to me as compared to the past... What can i say... I can only thank God that He soften their hearts and make them more open to me... Every relationship takes 2 hands to clap... they are willing to clap theirs tog with me... I thank God for them...

To Ming and Becky, lets keep growing in God together! Love you gals! :)

Once again, using my hp via Leme Cam! :)




4) Lastly, i just want to say that i am indeed really happy to have found a Pri Sch fren via FB! Not convenient to post photos and say name, but lets just call her A.

A and myself were close frens during pri sch days... During PSLE, she fared better then me and was naturally posted to Express stream. I fared marginal and so were given a chance to choose between Express or Normal Acad (NA). In the end, my parents felt that its better for me to choose NA as they dun want to stress me out.

As a result, A went to a marginal Sec sch while i get to go to a good sec sch but i do NA. After a while, we lost touched. Yrs later i heard she gave birth to a baby and became an unwed mother. That was when we were both in our teens yrs... I think during then, i came to know Jesus Christ.

Soooo many yrs have passed... acty she has always been on my mind... i have always wanted to find her... but for some reasons, i just cant seem to find her... not thru friendster and i didnt try Facebook yet... Until recently someone started our Pri Sch profile page then... i found her there! I was sooo happy! we added each other and got hold of her hp num... i am sooooooo looking forward to meeting up with her to catch up on things... She is now a divorcee and taking her daughter with her... Her daughter is alrdy in Sec school! Gosh... I wonder how much she had suffered with that man during her growing up yrs... and seriously, my heart goes out to her... as always..

After i found and added her... i was thnking and looking back abt both of our lives... In comparison, God always have a plan for everyone... and there must be reasons why things happened.

A


- Got into a marginal Sec Sch to do Express stream.


- Met a bad guy and became an unwed mum at (maybe) 15.


- Might have been thru a lot of sufferings as an unwed mum and a student too.


- Ends up in divorce and have to take care of daughter.



ME


- Chose NA for good reasons and 'accidentally' got into a good Sch.


- Went to church during teens and became Christian at 15.


- Growed up in church and trained in the ways of the Lord.


- Met my man in church, married and now with a kid.



Sometimes, really, sometimes we will never know what God has intended for each and everyone of us. All i know is that i want to reach out to her and introduce God to her, becos she has missed out on so much alrdy. I feel she deserved proper care, love and concern.. Only God can give...

So i also thnk God that i found my long lost old time fren! :)

And, yup yup... this is how i started 2012... In a pretty good way i guess.. frenships reconciled and strengthened... Lost fren found back... God i thank You... I really do...

Heeeee... before i go... just wanna post a photo of me using Instagram via ip4s... I TOLD you i love the effects!


**Chaos!**

不知为什么...

In the past, i rather tell my frens or hubby abt things that are going on in my life... but now, 不知为什么, i prefer to blog it here. Even tho not many are reading, its fine.... i just want to say it here instead. :)

Today is Michela's 1st official day of school (playgrp rather) and she was so excited that the moment she woke up, she kept saying "i want go school...". I can foresee my weekday mornings to be really busy from now on... Her class starts at 9.15am and so we gotta leave house by 8.50am and this means we need to wake up at 7.30am to prepare BF for her and bath her too... Well, i used to wake up even earlier when i was working back then. hahah...

So today, she insisted on wearing her sunglasses to school lor...





Actually, no photography is allowed in school for security reasons, but i secretly took a snap of Michela in today's class. She's the last one behind with 2 pig tails tied to its side. :)

Today's class was very chaotic cos parents were allowed for 1st few days of school so, if got parents, the kids are even more daring to shout and scream, etc... plus there seems to be 2 little bullies in her class too... scream and shout and cry and push and pull and snatch toys... making the class very noisy and messy... but i guess its like this for 1st few days of school ba... I am praying that she will settle down really soon without me by her side. :)

Anw, her teacher commented tht she likes to dance and sing... cos whenever they play music, she will naturally dance to the beat on her own... hahaha... i am proud of my gal and i thank God for her. :)

A photo of teacher teaching in class. :)


And today's theme is Red colour and Apple... Michela did her 1st ever colouring... even tho a bit CMI, but i feel its ok lah... let her have the feel of colouring and drawing first ba... :)



Last nite, i received a bday card from Chanel and i am happy! I thnk this yr, i wun initiate my bday celebs ba.... enuff of me doing things le... Maybe its time to see who are really my frens that cares for me... hahahah.. jus kidding! But well, if theres a celeb, there is. If not, i guess it doesnt matter anymore ba. :)

Bday card from Chanel!
On a side note, whenever i see Chanel, i kept thnking of my GST leh... sigh.. i really like it... wen can i ever have it?? When God? When?



Anw, i amended a bit to my bday wishlist. But since not many read my blog, i guess i will still hv people coming to me to ask what i want for my bday ba... hehehe..

1) Kinokuniya vouchers
2) H & M vouchers
3) Nice looking clutch (classy and chic looking)
4) New HandPhone - iP4S - GOTTEN IT! PTL!!
5) Chanel Bag (as always!)
6) Juicy Couture earrings-http://www.revolveclothing.com/DisplayProduct.jsp?product=JUICY-WA1678&c=Juicy+Couture
7) *Secret* for now.. :)
8) Shopping trip to either TW or BKK.. I really feel like shopping!

Another 20 more days.... :)


Yesterday i was clearing and filing some of Michela's stuff and i came across this photo.. The baby is ME :) Can recognise? I always cant recog myself one... hahah.. and of cos the lady carrying me is my mother. :)

Not trying to be Emo again, but... i do miss her... always in fact. I thnk she's quite pretty when she was young. heheh..


I feel like setting a PW for my blog... prefer it to be more private. BUT.... i dunno how... hahaha... see how ba... :)
