Love At First Sight


(click to view larger image)

Got myself a new dress watch on sunday. It was love at first sight when I bought it. The watch is from Solvil et Titus and I like the rose gold case with a mother-of-pearl central section surrounded by three concentric circles of swarovski crystal. The tapering hour and minute hands match the case, which is set on a genuine leather band of the purest form.

Ayam Penyet @ Lucky Plaza


(click to view larger image)

We (Clarrise, Soon Teck and Me) have Ayam Penyet for lunch yesterday. Ayam Penyet aka smashed fried chicken is actually fried chicken serve with white rice, tempae (crispy fried bits on the chicken), boiled kang kong, cabbage, beancurd and their super hot sambal (if you can't take hot, don't try!!!). Overall the fried chicken is a bit dry but best if they can serve with soup.

Clarisse thank you for the lunch.

2 Months have passed

Molly, this is for you...

We remember you
Even when the world forgets

We remember your smile
Even when we can't find anything to smile about

We remember your laughter
Even when nothing is funny

We remember your tears
Even when we tried to comfort your pain

We remember your smell
Even if we never smell it again

We remember how you felt
Even if we can't hold you

We remember you
Even when it hurts the most

One day we will see you again

Southern Ridges


(click to view larger image)

Yesterday after visiting Molly, my mum, my hubby, Aunty Jean, Uncle Si Kang, Yee Hwee and me went to explore the Southern Ridges. We parked our car and began our walk at Hort Park - the gardening hub. It is located at the base of the bridge at Alexandra Arch; Floral Walk offers a delightful stroll along a path lined with flowering plants.

Natural umbrella! It was huge!

Henderson Waves is located 36 metres above Henderson Road, it is the highest pedestrian bridge in Singapore. It was built to connect the two hills of Mount Faber and Telok Blangah Hill.

The bridge has a unique wave-form made up of seven undulating curved steel "ribs" that alternately rise over and under the deck. The cured "ribs" form alcoves that functions as shelters with seats within.

The wave-forms will be lit with attractive LED light from 7pm to 2am daily, giving the bridge an illuminative glow.

These photos was taken at the forest walk. It was a steps-free elevated walkway with earth trails meanders through some 50 metres through the secondary forest of Telok Blangah Hill and connects to Alexandra Arch. The raised walkway with the heights ranging from 3 to 18 metres brushes the canopy trees and offers a bird's eye of the forest.

On our way back to our car, instead of taking the same route we explored the jungle walk. It was so much fun and interesting than the normal route.

We did not finish the 9km walk this time but we will be back again to finish the rest of the trails.

I personally like this work call 'Seeking Shangri-La' by local designer Peter Cheok. It gives you the feeling that you are underwater; the flowers and plants were transformed into sea corals. The display won the Best Show and a Gold medal award in the Fantasy Garden category.

(Standing: Clarisse & Me, Sitted: Zainal & Soon Teck)

My colleague Clarisse will be leaving the company next week. I have been thinking where to buy her a farewell lunch and what gift to get for her. Yesterday Zainal initiated to have a farewell lunch and we decided to have it at Pasta Cafe. The restaurant gives me a casual and homely feeling; and most importantly their food is nice.
