For two years, I have withdrawal symtopms when it comes to watching action packed movies.I selectively watched them if I had to.So how did it happen?I guess, it was just too much of them, and I was deprived of my fav type of shows - romantic comedy, and totally romantic movies.(I even had to watch 'Nanjing Massacre 'with him when I was pregnant!)Now, when heswitched on the DVD player for his movie marathon on weekends, I switched off my brain and walked straight to my bed. Period.I finally shared with him .... that I missed these shows...After SATC not long ago, I watched 'Confessions of a Shopoholic', how slow I was, I know.But better late than never. I was literally rolling on my sofa, Laughing.It was so therapeutic for me!And as for him, I think it was seeing me happy that makes him think the movie was interesting. It was 3.30am when the show ended, bb was sleeping in her room, and I was still giggling when I replay the scenes of the movie in my head.....Nice.Labels: movie, thoughts

I am sure you know I seldom head to town, especially during weekends.
Not unless I have stuff to get, or my family needs to go run some errands.
With the fact that my right back (butt) hurts now when I walk too much, I didnt even meet up with my family during the weekend.
But I had to go SIM LIM to get a transformer/adaptor for my new breastpump that my dear fren, Nicole, helped to lug back for me from the states (Thanks sooooo much Nicole!!!)
I got the adaptor for jus $15, so nicole's help saved us SGD$220! YEAH!!
Will post the breast pump soon. =)
The sky was beautiful when we exited from SIM LIM Tower, can't help but to snap it....
Since we jus had lunch, and we were in town, we decided to head to the new dessert bar at Seventh Heaven. Juuuuuuust in case, bbTara pops, and I can't make more new discovery....haha 
Located at the old Gan Eng Seng Sec School, it was ulu, but very cosy.
Livingstone and me (37 weeks).
The shop doesn't accept card or nets, and it so happens that we are cashless that day!!!
So, livingstone had to drive out to the ATM, while I decides what to order...BRAVO! he will trust my selections, i know. =)
And so, I ordered two items, the above is 3-in-1 espresso ice-cream ($5.80), comes with brandied cherry. I love the biscuit accompanying the ice cream! sad to say, i think my tastebud hasn't been very sensitive to some food(s) ever since I reached the last stage of my preg, I couldn't really taste the strong espresso fragrance. Anyway, i still enjoy the creaminess and the sweet indulgence.
And it happened that they are taking this item away from their menu come Nov. =)
So, we were considered lucky!
This is the brandied cherry. I can't take liquor, so livingstone took it.
Then, I also ordered the warm chocolate moist cake with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream ($7.80). We had to wait for 20mins for the cake, but let me tell u this, the wait is worth it! IMO, the sweetness of the cake is juuuuuust nice! As u bite into the moist cake, i can only think of the word 'heaven'....really really nice....
pair it with the vanilla ice cream, lagi best!
And since we were in town, we decided to head to vivocity for a movie.Wrong choice of movie, arghhhhhhhwatched the comedy by Ben Stiller - Tropic Thunder. Turned out to be the most awful show i had ever watched!
Yucks! Lucky I didnt pay $10 to watch the movie, with OCBC credit card, we had $2 off. The show was extremely boring, the first 10mins of the show alrd set me cursing and swearing, and i wanted to walk out....this show was full house for the slot somemore! arghhhh....waste time.

Sunday, we were supposed to attend a wedding together with my in-laws.
Since the dinner is at nite, we decided to stay at home in the afternoon and continue our movie mania (too many movies at home, too llittle time to watch!)
I choose 'Sleepless in Seattle'.
I know it is a super old movie, but i still wanna watch it anyhow.
Did u watch it? Do u rem the lines?
Doctor Marcia Fieldstone: Tell me what was so special about your wife?
Sam Baldwin: Well, how long is your program? Well, it was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were suppose to be together... and I knew it. I knew it the very first time I touched her. It was like coming home... only to no home I'd ever known... I was
just taking her hand to help her out of a car and I knew. It was like... magic.
Jay: Well, this is fate! She's divorced, we don't want to redo the cabinets, and you need a wife. What do they call it when everything intersects?
Sam Baldwin: The Bermuda Triangle.
It was a simple love story with a nice OST.
Halfway thru the show, my stomach started growling, I checked the freezer, and got some stuff out to bake.
some straight cut fries! I sprinkle lotsa chedder cheese on top to bake together! and added some mayonnise after that, sounds like some KFC cheese fries, minus the spring onions! hee...I love the oven, works magic for me within minutues!
The wedding dinner at nite was at Boon Lay Raja Restaurant.Never been there, no expectations. Food was considered mediocre. ambience-rowdy.We sat in a table of 7 (3 didnt turn up), all relatives.2 of them were vegan, that left 5 of us to eat plates of food that were prepared for 10.gosh!So as the relatives were bz chatting away, I got myself bz with stuffing the food. haha...
Nice stamped choco. =)

Many weeks ago, peggy suggested watching "A Midsummer Night's Dream":
a shakespear's play.
Im not a fan of him. but since it is an outdoor play, a picnic somemore, im game for it. :)
but hor, peggy ended up in Macau instead.... hahaha....so, the person who suggested it missed it totally.
We were then discussing who to prepare what food, who to bring what items.
and since we have a vegan in the group that nite, i volunteered to make inari sushi, and baked chicken wing.
this is so uber-easy to make!! jus prepare the rice and push it in!! wah lau, so simple..... haha....
i like it!!
cheers!
So, it was held at:
  livingstone and I were late.... so sorry guys!!got our chops, (look at the contrast color on our skin tone!, and make guess, which is ah siang's and which is mine!)
 the outdoor play infrastructure revealed.
 thanks to jody! who pre-taught us which position is the best! and it was really good.....and thanks to dennis, felin and desmond for reaching there early to q up and chop the grass!the sushi, the wings, the chips, the cold pasta and the drinks (oops, not in the picture though)!
 livingstone and me. with ah siang.  and the group that was there.
 Now, dun ask me if the play is nice. i told u i m not a fan. So, seriously, i dun really noe what they are talking abt, haha....im literature illiterate. la la la la la la la.but it was a good concept for a play.(the answer is ah siang is the fairest lo. im tanner then him...)Labels: baking, cooking, Dinner, Food, Japan Hour, Merry, movie, nature, picnic, quality time

Singaporeans, how long is it since ur last visit to Science Centre?
mine was decades ago.
It must have been one of the excursions we had in primary school.....
If not for the free ticket now, I wouldn't....... hur hur hur..

 wat would have interest them? haha, it was a video of 'Sex @ Sea'....no wonder...
 spotted this fish in the aqua section...it seems like it is scratching itself against the coral.... :)very cute.
 then there is this machine, that lets u take a picture of urself, and....
 turn it into mosaic.....not that impressive.
 this is a challenge.u are suppose to pc these blocks together against the semi circle support, and then, some1 will lower the support, and the blocks shld not fall.the men did it! its not easy.... :)
 i simple love this vibrant shot. eddie look so cartoon... haha...
 in the human body section.in the robotics section: CUTE!!
 i like R2-D2!
 this must have been the longest monster living around in singapore.meet our safety driver. or maybe he inspire to be like michael schumacher. haha....
 We went for hup choon for dinner, since dennis and ah siang jus got back.as usual, the curry fish head and yam ring did not fail me. :)dessert time!brought them to TDS.
