Birthday Meet Up & A Chance Encounter

Last Wednesday, we had a mini dinner cum birthday celebration with my former project group and it was so nice to see them again and honestly, there were two of my favourites and not because I am being biased but they are really helpful and they don't judge for sure. I like it when people see you for who you are and take the time to get to know you, rather than making a quick judgment with sweeping assumptions. Long story, haha..Anyway, the birthday celebration was at a restaurant set up by a Malay entrepreneur and his group of investors in Telok Ayer called Royz Et Vous and I actually could not remember the name until I had to write this post and looked up for it via google, haha.

It's a french restaurant and while the menu was pretty limited and since it's a restaurant, of course expect restaurant prices although a budget of around $30 or even lesser is considered still okay for a restaurant setting like this. It's the experience that counts because we don't always have this type of French restaurant as a halal establishments for muslims in Singapore. And we're also proud of the fact we're supporting a successful Malay entrepreneur.

 And this is where it gets interesting. Apparently, my former classmate knew the guy from 20 years back from her former workplace. While it didn't end well, they are on better terms now after the quick intro at the restaurant when we were about to make a move. He gave each of us a free onde-onde cake and you can see the one that we shared from the picture below. It was really good! Sinful of course, but what's life without some sugar and spice :)

 I won't say much about what was the relationship between the two but you know, everything happens in life for a reason. 

 My two former group mates and now friends for life are really chatty and while I'm really the opposite of them, as and when, I get to chat with them and listen to their very interesting stories that made the time goes by so fast. Before we know it, we were there for like two hours. 

 So here are the pics below and as usual, I will have them printed for memory keeping. I just realized I haven't been printing photos for this year except for the New Year countdown. My bad. I was so caught up with test, projects and exams that my life practically halted, lol. Still trying to get used to it though. 

 Until my next post!

Rediscovering Writing & Cutting Down My Reliance On Social Media

I started writing again in my journal when I came across an old notebook where I did some creative writing and then reminisce about the time I didn't have any internet at home. I didn't even have a computer. At some point, I did have and back then was the dial up internet, lol. But it was still a form of entertainment, at a much slower speed, haha.

Anyway, I was also thinking how simpler life was back then and how less dependent we were on our phones and the internet. So I relied on writing and there was no online journal so I wrote inside my notebooks. Honestly it was quite embarrassing reading through them but these pages shaped my world back then.  I stopped writing for quite a while this year because I didn't feel like it. It's also as though I'm repeating myself. I would say that I promise to do this or that but never seem to come around and do something progressive. I feel as though I reset my life so many times without any much progress. So perhaps I would ta…

Our Experience at the Prudential Marina Bay Carnival 2018

Image
Last week, we rounded up our Marina Bay Carnival 2018 with the games, which we sucked at by the way. Honestly it was annoying how we throw money away like that, haha. We had enough rides..or rather had enough with rides, gosh that Viking ride made me broke out in sweat. I still don't understand how people can do an IG story/selfie/wefie while they were on that Viking ride that swing like a damn pendulum.

Anyway, we started off with the Euro Ride which was fun but alas, too brief. I think there were like two points that plunged down when we reached the top and then we were back to square one. It would have been better if we went at least two rounds but oh well. Now the Viking, that felt like forever, haha.

I told myself not to scream and though I didn't give out a girly scream, it was more of an exhilirating scream while looking at the guy sitting opposite, with a face who couldn't care less. I was thinking, don't you feel anything? The various reactions on the ride.

I was…
