My mother bought tickets for the S.E.A aquarium quite a long time ago and somehow we never seem to be able to find time for it, until recently! Now with the haze and all lurking at every corner of Singapore, training was cancelled, thus I finally was able to accompany my mother out (: Since my mother had extra tickets, my younger brother and le bf tagged along too.

Be warned, this post contains a lot of fishy pictures :3



Here is my younger brother being his usual stupid-self - wearing the mask indoors







My mummy and I! (:











Can you spot one stingray burying itself in the sand?



The three of us together :) &I'm totally loving my deer hat I bought in Qingdao - ain't it adorable?♥



Le bf and I ♥ I finally managed to drag him into snapping one picture with me.





-Because when trouble hits, I only can dream of swimming away ...









They have super adorable dolphins - and they really swim super fast, it was quite tough for me to snap one decent picture of them.





KING CRAB!☼







There was a display of jellyfish in which the display kept changing colours, and the jellyfish reflect the colours off which makes it really pretty!





One of the most adorable pictures I took - this stingray looks like it is waving at me and saying hi!♥



Even my mother has to snatch the hat to wear it on herself! Haha :)



Le bf kept pestering me to do stunts so I just had to comply, haha and it was worth it!♫







Horny fish! :)





A lobster sitting on its bum, haha how can I not snap a picture of this?





Looks familiar? :3



Yet another cast from Finding Nemo! ^^









From her viewfinder -the world feels so small.





We were fooling around with one of the pirates hanging from the ceiling and tadah~ my brother's first cupie! Hahaha :P But I'm sure he will achieve this for real soon (:



Heehee~



"Oh man, coming to Singapore is such a mistake - the haze is killing me ... Better mask up rather than lose out."

After finishing touring the S.E.A aquarium, le bf brought us back to Vivo City where he recommended a German restaurant called Brotzeit. I know of this restaurant before but I've never really think twice about trying it out until now (:





Le bf has been quite into beer for quite some time now and this is no doubt one of the nicest beer I've ever tasted. Most of the beer will always leave a nasty taste in my mouth after a while and since then I've been quite aversive about drinking beer. This is one huge exception - it doesn't leave any bad taste and it tastes quite ... fresh! I fully recommend anyone who wants to try this out!



Our main dish(: The waiter who took our order told us that this portion may be too much for just the four of us, and I thought he was just joking because my younger brother and bf have appetites like kings! In the end,  we couldn't finish and we had to dabao most of it home :P









A picture of my younger brother and I :) I've to admit that my younger brother has come a long way from being a small boy to a young man, and that is the same with cheerleading. He started out as someone who was weak-willed, and was bullied by many. However, le bf saw greatness in him and trained him from scratch. As of now, many people can see him improving in ways he has never fathom. &I'm proud to see him growing up so fast. Go, fight, win! ^^

That day was truly a great day for me! Not only did I get rest from trainings, I get to spend that day with my wonderful family :) Thank you mummy for giving me a superb day to enjoy♥

It has been 5 days since I've returned from my trip from China. It has been a really crazy 10 days in China with their crazy-ass-unpredictable-weather. I tell you, it is really MADNESS, one moment you will feel cold to your bones; the kind where you feel the chill blowing through your spine, and another moment you will be perspiring through your woolly sweater. To tell the truth, I love the cold weather, mainly because Singapore is SO BLOODY HOT. And whenever I head over to cold countries, this gives me reason to buy WINTER CLOTHING/COATS. This time I treated myself to this beautiful fit and flare coat from ASOS. It is so freaking beautiful, I almost cried when I first wore the coat.

Unfortunately, I do not have any pictures (or decent pictures actually) of my trip to post here as the DSLR is still with le bf who is still millions of miles away from Singapore. Yes, he is still in China! #jealous Well this post is just a brief touch-up on what I did in China. The first day was the worst; mainly because we had to transfer flight from Guangzhou. The people I met there are simply horrible I tell you. They haven't have the slightest idea of what good-manners is. There is this bitch who stepped on my parcel without even apologizing when she knows it damn well her fat foot was on top of my stuff. So I scolded her and she was like "Oh, you can't scold me that .." (obviously in Chinese), and le bf heroic shouted at her, daring her to pick a fight. Of course, she fled off like a pussy. Not trying to create trouble actually, all I wanted was a simple apology from her for being a fat ass.

The moment we touched down in China, le bf's parents and best friend came to pick us up from the airport. Even though bf's mother was not feeling well, she still made the trip to fetch us, I was really touched :) So this time in China, I managed to control my-other-self - my shopaholic-crazed-maniac-self. It was not surprising that le bf would take note of how much I would spend whenever I went back to China. This time, I really had to put a metal lid on my urges. So what did I do during my time in China you may ask ... Well, this time I am proud to say that I have spent most of my time getting to know le bf's friends and family more. Bf's best friend whom he called Xiao Hu, was a very gracious friend indeed, every time I came to China, he would always plan fun activities for both bf and I. And I really do enjoy myself every single time.

Besides all the exploring the best eateries in China, which includes me gorging on food which I have been craving ever since, we had activities such as flying kites, going to flower gardens, enjoy a spin around the city, visiting the friend's house for a simple meal. Well, I don't have any pictures now to show, but that was the summary of what I did in China. Of course I will share more details of my trip in my next post :) And, I did put aside 3days out of my 10 to spend them on SHOPPING! #hooray The previous times I was in China, I really did burn a hole in the wallet dragging home a luggage that was literally filled to the brim. This time, I limited myself to really quite little and in the end I could fit all my shopping hauls into half a carry-on. Really quite a surprise right? Therefore, I've made a vow that the next time I'm going overseas, I'm bringing my own luggage. This way I can limit myself not to spend so much money; that's right, I'm actually saving for the future :) Which I will not elaborate further for now .... ^-^

At the end of the trip, the worst part was naturally saying good-bye. This time, I felt more connected to le bf's mother because finally I am able to understand most of what she says and when I speak in Chinese, she could understand me too! #achievementunlock Le bf has trained me well! I cried like crazy when I had to enter the terminal gate and I clung onto the bf not wanting to let go. I was scared because this was my first time travelling alone, in addition, it was my first time transferring flight all by myself! And the transfer flight was in Shen Zhen! A foreign country which everybody speaks freaking Chinese and I had no translator by my side. The flight to Shen Zhen was quite tensed as they kept delaying take-off. I spent 4 hours in the airport just waiting to board my plane. And I was lugging three carry-ons: one is my VSPINK carry-on which was super heavy with all my school books (I thought of studying in China but failed miserably), another is my shoebag which consisted of my cheer shoes and other small items (yes le bf was super enthu about taking stunts pictures in China and we did!) and the last was an LV tote which had all my clothes and souvenirs + snacks inside. Carrying all three of them is a freaking chore - they were fucking heavy I tell you. I felt like I was going to dislocate my shoulder whenever I carried them altogether.

BUT, thank God, I met a few kind souls on my flight to Shen Zhen. The person whom I was sitting beside on the plane helped me a lot. He took the initiative to help me put my bag in the overhead compartment when he saw me struggling like crazy to do so. Plus, after the plane touched-down, I had difficulties carrying all my three carry-ons out of the plane and he and another guy stepped forward to help me carry! I was shocked. When I told the bf about this, he was sceptical about it and asked me to check whether my valuables were still inside as he feared that they might want to take advantage of the situation to steal my stuff, but I assured him that everything was in place. Another scenario was when I was finding my way through the Shen Zhen airport for the International Terminal, this officer saw that I was quite frantic as my flight was only 1 hr from taking off, and I was nowhere near finding my terminal. Knowing I was a foreigner, he took his time to explain how to get there the fastest way and he spoke slowly and really clearly, consistently asking me whether I understood. I could tell that he was busy with his own stuff, but he still took the time out for me.

After rushing through three fucking terminals, I finally reached the International Terminal for my flight back to Singapore. I swore that was the most crazy, frightening experience I ever had of flying. Yet, I have to admit that it really changed my opinions on people from China. I've always thought they were mostly a crude bunch of people, but I have been proven wrong time and time again. One instant would be my bf's family members and his closest friends - they have always been so gracious and kind towards me :') Another instant would be those kind strangers who did not take advantage of my clueless situation. Hahaha saying that makes me feel like I'm a bimbo :S

The moment I reached Singapore and walked out the gates, I found myself shedding a few tears. I guess it feels really different without the bf beside me, and the plane flights have been excruciatingly painful since I have always never been able to fall asleep on planes. 14 hours gone just like that O.O Well I didn't go to school even though the second half of the semester has started; I was not feeling well. Some say it may be due to me being heartbroken or love-sick, but after seeking professional help, it seems that I am currently suffering from low blood pressure. Not high ... but low blood pressure. Not sure how that happened though, but it made me feel pretty weak for like 24/7. I took another week break from both trainings and school, but I still have to rush through the seemingly endless project works and catching up on lectures/tutorials.

Wish me luck for the next few weeks, because my end year exams are coming and I sure am hell not prepared for it. Worse of all is that I have no one beside me that I can share my problems with :( Normally I will always cry on le bf's shoulders whenever I feel stressed out, but this time, I've got no one. #foreveralonemuch But the bf is still giving me tons of encouragement through whatsapp and I do appreciate his sincere efforts :)


I love you Chen Cheng, and I really miss you so much. I truly wish you are here beside me, hope to see you soon :')
Distance do make the heart grow fonder.

" There is nothing better than spending a morning having breakfast with the people you love ... "

My dinner will never be complete without this wonderful apple cider :)



Bf and LQ ordered their usual pork trotter.



LQ's super adorable handphone casing which he bought in Shen Zheng, China.



Nothing says 'diet' like a very oily covered soup. Hahaha!



Here is mine - rosti with baked salmon. I know rosti is just shaved potatoes but still, I enjoy potatoes more when they are being cut to strips or cubes.



Waffle covered with melons and chocolate sauce. It was really good!



LQ ordered his strawberry fruitcake - possibly the first thing he laid eyes on the moment he stepped into the restaurant.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!
