*** Wedding bells ***

I had this post back in March but never got round to reveal it. But, better late than never! Major major major throwback to 14 March 2015!!! The day whereby my sister officially put on a wedding gown, had the whole groom-pick-up session and banquet at the six stars Fullerton hotel.

I'm restricted from uploading the photos/videos on Facebook so here's a few group photos for that day! Shhhhhh cannot let her know haha.

The two kiddos who loves to be photographed hahaha

That's my cousin, not my bro's gf hahahaha too young k! (':

Jumbo!

What a beautiful day ~

Or not. We have a booking at Jumbo Seafood, but all of us were late. So I was ordered by my sister to run all the way from before the GoldKist chalet to the restaurant. Seriously? Seriously. -.- Took 10 mins to reach, which means I sprinted ....... a hell lot. So hot already, I don't get why the people would wanna wait to sit outside and not in the aircon. Hell yeah to aircon on level 2!!

Basically yours truly worked her butts down for this meal. And it was damn well a good earned meal. Yummy yum yum yum!!

My shag face. Can you tell? Lol.

Sis claims this Meegoreng is the best. Tasted real good!

Ps: I seriously think we don't look alike. I can tell my bro and sis have my dad's eyes, perhaps I have my mom's? Anyone please tell me the similarities?

Nespresso private event @ Royal Albatross

Back in March, we went for the 'cruise' ride for the limited edition preview for Nespresso. I don't even know this event existed till my dearest coffee lover bf signed it up for me. We thought we weren't allowed to bring partners, but apparently we could, so we brought along my mom and brother along for the ride.

And I forgot about posting this totally ..... Whoops.

The event was a really nice experience, but boring. It was about four hours long cruise ride, and there's really nothing much to do on it other than drink coffee or eat the bites they've prepared. I wasn't into fresh seafood, so the only food I could eat was the steak, but it was the nicest steak I've ever tasted!!

At the same time, his action was caught by the official photographer!

Seemed like he was acting cute from this angle. Haha!

Thank you Royal Albatross & Nespresso for the experience!

Healthiness at its peak

We used to procrastinate when our parents dragged us out for a run, especially during the cny period. Guess what? It's been more than a decade since the three of us decided to workout together!

& this calls for a photo to commemorate:

Think it was the third day of cny when both my parents dragged me out of bed. I'm also surprised why I wasn't in a bad mood. I hate waking up early on days which I can sleep in. Period. Must be the working lifestyle took over my body clock and made me ok with it.

So dad brought us to visit the china lake. Gorgeous view. We spent half an hour there trying to snap a shot of ourselves. Haha, this may be the only cny that we were all on the health hiatus. But the hike was such a failed exercise. Less than 10 km in two hours? LOL.

Look at all our muscles!

Chinese New Year

How was your cny? Mine has been a rather FAT year. Thank you everyone who has contributed to 'Yuya's bank', greatly appreciated!! Been house-hopping about to blend into the festive spirit, which I'm still not a huge fan of. But free money leh, why not? Once a year only too.

I just wanted to say, I'm officially disliking the idea of reunion dinner. Basically, my family would have two reunion dinners per year. Following the days of the dinner, we'll have steamboat lunch again. Meaning, I'm having FOUR steamboats in a week. This is not even including the ones which I'm going to have during house visiting. Someone please save me!

I think we've all grown up to stop being such a brat. Dearest bro and yours truly made the effort to go 'shopping' with our parents for the oranges. The crowd was horrible as usual. But the oranges were dirt cheap I tell you! Seven bucks for a carton!

So this year marks the last year that my sister can collect angpao cause she's getting married! Fyi, by law, she's already married, but by customs, she's not because the wedding banquet has not been thrown.

I look damn fat here ......

This concludes my fifteen days of Chinese New Year! Thank you to all the families for having me over & the food too! & my apologies to those whom I won money at in Blackjack. My first time in 23 years! I didn't think that AF would be the gambling kind but haha this year they're all rather enthusiastic too. Love the time spent catching up with all of you (& y'all need to stop winning my money *sobs*)!

Didn't eat much of the goodies this year because I need to stay the same size to fit my sister's wedding day's dinner dress. Sucks but yay to no weight gain.
