Nanbantei


 Hello!!! 
I'm currently living alone because my mom and sis are both overseas and it gets so lonely sometimes!
I wonder how people feel every time they go home to an empty house it is so sad.
This is the first time in my life living along.
I enjoy the solitude, but the comfort of having someone's presence is unmeasurable.

Anyway, I cooked a black pepper seafood pasta for my sister and myself the other day before she flew off. 
I love pastas!! I don't know how people restrict themselves to a no-carb diet. How to not eat pasta, udon, rice, and BREAD???? It's living hell lor. I must have bread almost everyday. Little wonder why I have a bread face too lol.  I heard the fastest way to slim down is to not touch carbs, but when you eat carbs again you actually gain back twice the amount because your body won't be able to break them down already. So scary. 

Made lunch on a sunday which I woke up around 330pm hhaha. I wasted the day sipping tea and reading a book. I feel really blessed to have the luxury of time to indulge in life's little pleasures.

I was so bored on another day I went out by myself to get a gelish mani done. Loving this pastel pink so much hehe. I'm a simple person who doesn't go for too elaborate designs. I don't know how some girls bling up their nails with so many studs and diamonds. Won't your nail get stuck in your hair when you shower, it's so annoying, and won't you just have the urge to peel them off. I am super pleased that my gelish lasted me a week now. Haha,,, i know they are supposed to las 3-4 weeks but none of my gelish so far has managed to survive after 3 days, 

Had Nanbantei at Far east plaza for dinner last week with J it's awesome. This is the only yakitori joint i'll go!! 
We love the grilled squid here and I would even go to say it is the best squid in Singapore. It is grilled to perfection. You can even taste the effort of the chef fanning the charcoal with all his might. 
Maybe the saltiness comes from the dripping sweat from the chef's forehead ermahgad. 
HAHAH iKid. 
It is really very tasty, if you like grilled squid you must try this!!! 
$16


This is honestly as good as it looks!!

teriyaki chicken balls were so soft and tender ( $5.80 for 2 ) we like this!


A slab of grilled salmon! If there's one food I have to choose to eat every day i think it'll be salmon. 
yum!! $13


And we also had a bowl of udon to share. Lately while J has been into his squid craze, I jumped into the udon craze. Thankfully these two food items always co exist haha. 
The broth for this udon was very light and clear. And the shitake mushrooms are so so sweet i think they preserved it with sugared water. It was delicious. I also acquired a new knowledge or a  " Do you know?" of the day when J told me that the japanese fish cake with pink swirl is called Naruto. 

Lol. I was so surprised. Isn't that the anime. Maybe swirls are called naruto. Haha next time I go ice cream shop and I wanna have a rasperry swirl i should try saying " Can I have a raspberry naruto" And when she gives me the puzzled face I can Do-You-Know her and tell her swirls are called naruto. Haha. kidding. Later she knows jap, and naruto is just fishcake in jap i'll be so embarrassed to see fishcake in my raspberry icecream eew. 

K sorry for digressing. This bowl of comfort food only goes for $8.90! I love their sweet taupok. 

kimchi chicken which was the least impressive that i don't even know how to describe it. $7.80 for 2

Also attended Josh's friend's hen's night at Butter last week. 
This perv. 


This cupcake is a whore. So many people had a go at its tits! Lol. i didn't of cos. 


omg who is this cutie pie. my hormones are sending tingles to my heart i think my heart is melting. he looks so silly yet cute here. And that smile, oh boy, that smile. 


woke up craving for some Thai basil chicken, checked that i have all ingredients on hand, and plucked off some basil leaves that my mom planted in her own little garden. 
THIS TURNED OUT AWESOME. It was exactly what I like in my basil chicken. 
Gonna cook a thai meal for my mama when she comes back. My sister likes it too she said i can open a shop hehe. 


i cooked it again for J to bring to work, and he thinks the flavour is there too, but he prefers it to be with more sauce!! Gonna work on it !!

Met up with my old friends at Sauce bar it was the best girls night out in a while. I haven't done this in such a long time and it is aawesomeeeeee catching up over some calorie laden beer and deep fried fries, and some oily finger food. Lol. It is just so nice to indulge in all these artery clogging food and drinking beer and talking about things to people you never thought you will ever share with. 
Sauce is, and will always be my favourite place to chill at. 

Steph, mellow, kelly. If you decide that you are a good guy, and worthy of a girl's all, then I can tell you, these 3 girls are really such nice people. You may email me for application form sign ups. Quality guaranteed one. lol. 

Sometimes i wonder why guys always think they can get better girls when they are not exactly that flawless themselves. It is always important to be thankful for the person you have, because if you are not, you will soon find yourself taking her for granted, or worse, viewing yourself as the more superior in the relationship. And if you aren't thankful for the person you have, you will not cherish, and you will even find yours way into the arms of another girl. Sick.
To be honest, I always have a very cliche line for my friends who just broke up with scum bags.
" at least you know you didn't waste more time on a person like him" 
Lol. there is so much truth in this sentence. 
Why can't this world be simpler. 



Made myself breakfast in bed while watching prison break. My life is really damn shiok now i don't deny. It's so lazy. This level of laziness is so awesome. This was the day I woke up alone in the house, which is not very unusual, but the thought that i was gonna wake up and go to sleep for the next 5 days without company makes me feel sick.


 cooked myself tom yum udon for dinner at around 9pm . 

and this was when i started getting emotional and being scared of living alone. Human interaction that day was almost a zero, with a less than 5 whatsapps and as much as I tried to distract myself by watching shows, the lonely devil in me was struggling to be noticed. after a beer i had cider mixed with grey goose, which was the most clever thing i did that day because it knocked me out at 11pm. 

got woken up by a phone call, and j appeared at my door step. it was almost like he brought warmth into my (temporal) ice cold life .

Missing you a lot zeh. 

Also very grateful that J got me a part time job as an admin in his company haha since it's quite brainless and all i have to do is to sit there, entertain parents and then look forward to dinner time with him. It is comforting to know that we are separated only by a few walls, and if I want, he is only 30 steps away from me. 

Got his some snacks when I went to get water. Hehe these are so irresistible. Cute or what. 


After work, we went to have some celebratory drinks to commence the first day of work of my 2 day work week lol..... he was like. what is there to celebrate. HAHAHA. But i just wanted to la. I don't feel that bad about myself for being so useless anymore at least. 

that's all i have for now. Looking forward to beer fest this weekend. 
I really need to do some abs exercise. At this rate i'm drinking i'm gonna balloon into something unimaginable. Gnight!!

Thefrontedge // Sauce// Cash Studio

Hello!! So my sister just came home from HK on Monday night and lucky me got to eat my favourite egg tarts from Honolulu Cafe again. Th egg tarts are really the best! 

 Just look at how gooey the custard is.. omg just want to slurp those overflowing custard off the screen now. And see how flaky the crust is? Enough said. I'm going to heat up my 2nd piece of the day now. I love it so much... 

Also helped my friend, Emelia, with a shoot of Sunday!
Doesn't even feel like working when I'm with them. 
Hanwei is super entertaining when she is the photographer. She will say : "1,2,3 " in all sorts of language and beats. 










This denim dungaree is so cute!



Please support : 
A lot of items are oos already, but you can still join the back order!

Been studying outside and getting my overpriced caffeine fix the past few days. 
Lucky me had Hanwei to accompany me to study at Starbucks last night!
Studying alone can be quite productive but SOOO annoying. If I need to go toilet!?!??! 
Oh yah. Emelia came to find us last night while we were studying, and she was so sweet she bought us Sweechoon for supper!! Just because Hanwei was craving for it. Such a darling! 


J had a meeting on Thursday at MBS, so I met him after for an impromptu chill out sesh.
Really love this boy. 
We went to Sauce. Didn't know about the new bundle pricing!
5 bottles - $35
10 bottles- $60 
20 bottles- $100

But it was only the two of us ( because I requested for some alone time to bond lol ) we had 10 bottles, which was more than enough. Usually 2 bottles already stuff me to the brim.. My max is 3 bottles lol.
I feel like a bucket of beer every time i walk because i can hear the gargling sound of the beer in my stomach.

Drinking is not shiok if there is no food lol. Ordered the poutine.. i missed it soo much! Look at the cheese.... yumz. 

Anyway it was a really nice day together.. We were just talking to each other lor. (AND HE WASN'T PLAYING HIS PHONE ) like 100 % attention. Love it. Feels like our first few dates :) 

We went to Shanghai Dolly to meet the rest and then went to Sing K at Cash Studio ! ( I love this plae because it is so cheap and got feel lol. only gripe is the song choosing system isn't very effective and not very updated.)I think if you go on weekdays it's 10$ +++ without alcohol for 3 hours. and they close at 6!


There were 5 of us and we had 4 mics. Pretty cool.
The places i've been to usually only give 2 mics.

Anyway pardon the blur pictures. The lighting was really bad.

Picture Perfect. :)

So cuticle!!!

A wild sober mario appeared





It was a fun night!!!!!!!! Lol. As fun as what a Friday could have been in J's words.
I'm meeting him tonight for dinner I'm so hyped for it.
Been awhile since we planned for dinner in advance! 
Can't wait to see this precious boy later!

The sushi bar @ Far East Plaza

Hehe hihihi!!
This week is a good week because I met up with J 4 times this week!
Whee super happy. And we had a big date today too. More on that later !

I was craving for bread and butter pudding, I didn't have cream on hand, so I ate this with condensed milk, which was divine!!! 
 Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.. Every piece of bread was soaked evenly with the custard mixture, and you could also taste the butter in between layers. If only I had some vanilla icecream on hand, that would be a perfect combi! 

At night , I met up with J and his friends at this pub in Bugis Plus. It's like a Timbre but with aircon. If you have been to Switch, it's exactly like switch! Pretty chillax I would say, we were just sitting on bean bags and slacking. Quite relaxing! 

We went to Butter after that. 
 Yay to more props! The manager threw the whole bunch of super hero masks into my bag! haha. There is Captain America, Iron man, Thor, Green Lantern and something else. 

 This mario was SO drunk again omg. She blamed it on this drink we had at the pub earlier on. You can try this ( deathly ) drink called " Adios Motherfucker" it apparently has 5 different types of alcohol and the effect will kick in slowly. But then again, Mario is always drunk no matter what alcohol you give her. She really looks like Hamburglar lol I cannot take it. 


 Unicorn hair band. Wheeee

With Emily

and my Bb


The guy on the left is Keith, he is a hardcore clubber. He was so irritating that night.. he go take the Asahi bottle and make " beer shower" so annoying

 I told J i'm a unicorn huan zhu gege . Haha. I was crazy over huan zhu ge ge last time. I would buy anything related to them. Especially stickers and those useless cards and posters lol. Cheena piang max.

Bumped into Vanida in Sonar. Lol. Every time I go Sonar I'll bump into her and Huizhen in the toilet haha. She's an authentic siam bu.

Got home about 6am? Woke up at 12.. and went down to J's place to find him to nua hehe. 
Even cooked him lunch. We had super awesome pumpkin soup ( my favourite favourite cream soup ) and omelette haha, We just made do with whatever easy thing we could cook because we were so hungry!! 

My pillow ^^

Sorry I was camwhoring while waiting for J to get ready. 


J says this is the innocent look. Lol really. No one has ever used the word " innocent" to describe my looks ever. Honestly, I don't really like people who look innocent, because they are the scariest kind of people I swear to you. The people who look the most angelic are the biggest backstabbers. There's a chinese proverb for it. It's called įŽ‘é‡Œč—åˆ€. They do the most incredible thing that is beyond your imagination. I've had many brushes with people whom I thought are kind and genuine but I've learnt that we should really never judge a book by its cover. Sorry, if i come across as a bitch. That's just my personal opinion. But of course, that is an over generalisation to say that all innocent looking girls are devious la.



my ootd which i snapped in a rush 

We went to Fep I did some shopping and we had Sushi bar for dinner. 
The queue was insane. I honestly didn't think the food justifies the queue. I think we queued for more than 30 mins. Omg. So happy he queued with me because I kept saying I am the only person in singapore who hasn't eaten here.

He says this is how I look when I cry haha. Please lor who cries like that. 

I hereby present to you, Mr Expression King. ( actually Frown King more like! )


He has such sharp features. 

As you know, I am very uncomfortable when it comes to eating raw food. *gags* 
So I don't eat sashimi. BUT!!! I ate it today for the first time. 
And I officially dislike it. 

J says the slices were really thick, no fishy smell and there's a sweet after taste! 
I ate it, it was so mushy I washed it down with a huge gulp of beer immediately.
I think it's all in the mind. I just feel like a bear scooping live fish out of the river to eat. Yikes.


I love scallops, so we ordered this but i didn't really like the texture of it, it was so soft.. you could barely taste anything apart from the mentai sauce. Thumbs up for the mentai sauce though, I really love the torched taste. 


I courageously ate 3 slice of sashimi from this. The other time we went to Shiok Maki, I removed the salmon on top. I just can't!!! But I ate it today I am so proud of myself. I just kept chewing and telling myself that the mushy part was the avocado haha. Really can't appreciate good food. I wouldn't go to say this was mind blowing,but it was delicious on the whole.You all must be thinking that I'm really crazy because sashimi is heaven to you all! I can't imagine reading about someone who gags when they eat cakes or icecream. Lol. 

He wore this shirt because I said I haven't seen him in it for a long time already. :)
He is so good looking *_* Just look at that face!! 


Bill came up for $58 I think. Hmm.. I would have rather eaten at marmalade pantry. ps cafe lo. 
But we had a movie at Shaw to catch so it made more sense to eat at FEP despite the crazy queue. 
I think it's overhyped. 

We had icecream after that. Hehe. My sweet tooth... This gelato is so expensive! It's 5.80 for one scoop, 7.80 for 2 and 8.80 for 3?? Omg. Obviously it made more sense ordering 3 scoops but I didn't want to be greedy and to deliberately eat more just to stretch the value. 
You know what I mean..

We caught non-stop after that!
Omg.. VERY NICE!!! Go and watch it.
My movie picks of the month are Lone survivor and Non-stop.
They are both so exciting!!! 
It was such a lovely day.
