My Sweet Five

13th November 2013

Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier for life without liverty is like a body without spirit. 

We checked out from Cing Jing and realised that we had missed the earliest transport that left the place at 9am in the morning. I'll skipped sharing about the breakfast because I didn't enjoy it. It could be due to the local culture that the tasting was really bland. It wasn't that bad as we continued to explore the area while waiting for the next transport that picked us up in the afternoon. The staff booked a cab for us to Summit Resort and Lavender's Garden. I didn't really like this driver in particular (so I'll not promote him because he s**k).

Bf got really fed up because he didn't even realise that we are his passengers despite a long discussion (which I called it f*cking waste of time). Then we tried to get other cab and he kept coming to us repeatedly that annoyed me entirely. Anyway, I just ignored him throughout the entire journey as I didn't his recommendation. He annoyed me the most when he kept reminding us that the price we paid are strictly for 2 locations only.

It was like wtf and I wondered to myself if I ever mentioned that I wanted to go to a third place. I had no idea why he was grumbling about. Worse of all, he drove like a tortoise at 70km/h for the entire journey that gave me the urge to kick his ass for wasting 'lao niang' holy precious time when I had been delayed. Hell'yea!

#Summit resort

We reached Summit Resort finally. It's known as Xin She Castle by the locals. I read about this castle in a blog and it was really beautiful. It was not an old or abandoned castle. It was built for tourism purpose and you have no access to the interior (I'm not sure if the interior will be open to the public in future).

I did not take many photos because my card memory was full (FML! I didn't realised that the size of my img can be three to four times of those taken by the old camera, Canon). I was hesitating about bring my semi DSLR or the compact one. Then I decided to bring the better one since it's a holiday trip. Bf had been carrying my bag while I'm carrying the camera throughout the journey.

#At the Summit Resort

I was blogging and looking back at the old photos of bf. He was probably 70 plus kg at then. He's probably weighing more than 75kg now and I feel sad for him. He was having a double chin and a fat neck, or maybe a big ass now. He blamed me for contributing to his fats. I was oblivious about my contribution at first. Now, I believe him.

We got tired and took a rest at this pretty unique decorated restaurant. In fact, we spent nearly an hour slacking there before leaving for our next destination.

#Lavender's Garden

We took the cab to Lavender's Garden. It was a long drive to the place as it was located at really secluded area. Worse, the road isn't straight, it was going left and right in motion making me nauseas. Still, I made it.

#Lavenders

It was Lavender's season and the flowers had bloom beautifully. We thought that we might missed the pretty flower season. Fortunately, bf checked out the season beforehand so as to avoid unnecessary disappointment.

#The exhibition

They have really cute and nice exhibition of rooms. In fact, you can choose to stay over for a night at the Lavender's Garden Resort. We thought of staying over initially. Due to time constraint, we could not afford the time to spend a night there. Sad.

We had a great time slacking at the restaurant. The weather was close to perfect, a little chilly yet not too much. The air was fresh and crisp. We enjoyed ourselves tremendously before leaving Lavender's Garden and I had to face that darn driver. Gosh, anyway, it's our final trip with him.

#The restaurant we had

I was damn eager to leave the cab especially when the driver talk. He did nothing to offend me but he offended me right from the start. I got prejudiced (maybe I'm bad, I don't care). Any words that came from his mouth simply f8cked my mood. All the while, I've been trying hard to shut his mouth. Rofl.

#Winnie's Room

It was one of the cutest and attractive homestay that caught my attention and bf knew he had to book it for me. It's cheap and affordable and cost less than SGD60 per night. The room was small (as you can see from the picture and the toilet was pretty much normal than the norm (like our home). It's really worth it for that price. It's a walking distance to the market. 

Upon arriving at the homestay, I hardly recognises the entrance (-.-)'''

#Miyahara Ophthalmology Department 宫原眼科

After dumping our luggage at the homestay, I knew we had to rush for Miyahara because it was getting late. We quickly took a cab to the place and the new driver seemed to have good frequency with bf so much that they had been crapping non-stop. They became friends eventually (I'm feeling so out of the picture).

#Interior of Miyahara Ophthalmology Department 宫原眼科

It was not an exhibition for tourist. It was a place that sells really nice pastry and sun biscuit. It was really expensive. One slice of it can easily cost 5 bucks and I simply love their cheesecake. Not to worry, they offer delivery services. I was curious to take a look at their interior. It was fascinating because I had not been to any bakery that looks like this.

After stocking up some little gifts for friends and family, we went to Feng Jia Night Market. Surprisingly, I could not find my photos anywhere in my memory card (FML). It's probably lying somewhere in the wrong folder. Yea, I shall stop here then. 

**Edited on 15 August 2014**

I found my pictures finally. Yup, they were idling somewhere in the pile of mess (unpost mess). So I sorted them again. Anyway, it's nothing much except about food.

#Smelly toufu

I love this smelly toufu the most. It doesn't stink at all. It tasted like braised toufu more than smelly toufu. It was so yummy that I had a second box for late night supper.

#Random stall

#Chicken wing with rice

Maybe it looks really normal to you. However, it's filled with rice within. I didn't really like food with bones because I'm bad at picking them out. Surprisingly, there's no done in the chicken wing except yummy rice. Definitely, I won't be able to show the picture with rice after munching, it looks really messy.

#Shopping street

#Papaya Milk

#Takoyaki stall

I can't really remember the exact location of the stall. But it'd be great if you are able to google it online. It's a MUST TRY to me. Their Takoyaki comes in wasabi flavour. I haven't tried a wasabi flavour one. So we bought a box to share. It was heavenly!!!

That's then end of my post. I miss Taiwan.

Have a nice day.

Multiplying the good in life

13th June 2014

The greatest gift that you can give to the others is the gift of unconditional love and acceptance.

It's my darling, Teng's bday. I was supposed to be celebrating the big day with her on the 15th, then again, her hubby, Jw was right. 'Belated' celebration isn't a good idea afterall. So I decided to bring it a day forward, so that her husband could celebrate the actual day and I won't have to give her a belated celebration.

 

#Teng and I

Due to some hiccups along the way, my plan underwent a 360 degree change (due to one arse). I don't wanna curse that arse (ass) in this particular post, so I'll make it short and simple here. Stop being a jealous prick. Fortunately, Teng updated me everything so that I had sufficient time to reorganise my plan. Muahahaha, you will never win me in terms of wits and fun, you arse (-.-)'''

#Big big feast

Bf went home to get his car and we picked up Teng at Bishan. Poor Teng actually visited the same place twice in a day. We had Mookata at Upper Thomsom Rd. That's the most convenient part about having car. We had the buffet set so that bf could benefit from the humongous spread of food.

#Mookata

I had to say, it's really good compared to the normal steamboat. The taste is not as heavy as the normal ones we had. Yea, bf stuffed lots of food into his tummy as usual. The best thing is, he broke his heaviest weight record. A round of applause for him. Yea, maybe I was the one who caused his weight gain indirectly. It's seriously incredible that he made a 10kg leap in his weight just by feeding on my leftover. 

#Wafflelicious

I heard of this yummy waffle place and had been wanting to try it out. I was planning a cut 'waffle' session for Teng. Unfortunately, they had no candle (what-a-disappointment). Anyway, it's the thought that counts (right, darling?). She won't mind if there's candles or not. Afterall, it's her husband job. Mine is just a bonus. Anyway, she doesn't like cakes. I know that she likes waffles, yep, so here she goes.

#Chocolate waffle ♥

The waffle was really great and the staff was sort of 'no common sense'. We requested for candles and she actually came to our table to tell us that there's no candle in presence of Teng. Fortunately, bf gave her some eye contact to stop her from going on. She nearly spilled the beans.

#New game

It was midnight and we decided to go for kinect at E2Max. It's sort of like my frequent hangout nowadays. It's fun, so yeah, I bet you understand too. So bf drove us to Cineleisure and he ended up with the new game. I'm not too sure what's that called but it seem pretty fun and interesting to him. It was really expensive and cost $10 for a 5 minute game. 

#Super Marios

While waiting for Eugene's game to end, it's we-fie time (selfie). Teng's daughter was really cute that night. She called her mother (Teng) and constantly telling her that she should not be late home. Teng was like educating her that she shouldn't mind adult business, 'Why I cannot go home late?'. It was a total epic. Hopefully her daughter still loves me more than Qian and not blacklist me.

#Epic fail

Haha, we were trying to act cute like the 'Japanese Girls' and we had accepted the harsh reality that it's a total epic fail. We looked really unglam, with a shock face and a wide mouth that bees and flies were ready to enter anytime.

#Dance Revolution

Seriously, I had no idea why bf should be good at this. It's a girl's forte and he's forever getting 5 stars. I bet it's his fats shaking all over that gave him the victory. We sent Teng home about 2 am plus and I was really scared that her hubby gonna blacklist me real soon (pls don't pls don't). I returned his wife after midnight twice in a month, it's not gonna be easy for him to let me off. The first time was unexpected because there's human congestion at JB. The second time was her birthday, and my time was wasted by an arse. Even so, I will stack my pillows high and do some self reflection. 

Dear Teng,

It might be a really late post for this, but I bet you will see this. We might not be meeting up very often but I believe it's more than enough, considering that you got 2 cute little monsters, a husband to care and a shop to tend. I'm grateful that you had been spending time with me no matter how busy you are. Thank you for your little thoughts, remembering the dessert I crave, restaurant I want to visit and going with me especially when you are very casual and easy about food. Gosh, my eyes welled up as I typed (then my mum came home with happy meal for me, what a great timing!). You only need the correct portion. You always lend me your ears and give me the positive advice. I'm really grateful to have you. Happy Birthday to you and I hope you like your present. I really worked hard to buy it, so make sure your daughter and son don't play around with it. I promised to buy them candies as an exchanged terms and conditions (rofl). Love you always and stay pretty pretty at all times.

With love,

Jeanne
