We visited the train station at Tanjong Pagar! It feels as though we were transported to the 1960s!

He claimed that the coffeeshop there serves the best Teh Tarik! HAH

I love it when the books are arranged in colours!

In just three days I will be out of here! Welcome to Taiwan! I’ve not packed my bag yet. SHAT.

//A few posts coming up!

It’s only Wednesday! Hurry! Another week to my long awaited Taiwan Trip! Shit. But I don’t have any nice clothes for my trip!

My sister stumbled upon this site and now it is one of my favourite interior inspiration sites!

Sofia – the girl behind this wonder – described her audience as people who can’t stop looking and start to imagine how it would feel like to live in a room like that. People who drool just by looking at the textures, the colours and the light that comes from the large windows. People who dream about it and are addicted to it.

She definitely has some tasteful-lust-worthy inspirations in there and I’m amazed by the consistency of all the pictures featured and her ideas are all inline with my desire!

Here are some of my favourites!

The dresser is lovely!

We can do something like that with corridor.

A blackboard wall in our study maybe? I love these plastic white chairs. I’m not having those office looking dull black chairs!

Aww.

Having watched the movie after reading the book gave me a different insight from my earlier encounter with “Eat, Pray, Love”. I enjoyed it and it is a beautiful travelogue with a life story! It tempted me to seek liberation in this robotic life and ignited the burning desire to travel again!

Italy, Rome

She was there to seek the appetite for life and the scene left me salivating for the food and made me want to visit Rome too!

India

She was there to gain a spiritual life and I was a tat disappointed with the Ashram featured. I expected it to be up in some mountain and far from the city where there was nothing but peace and tranquility.

Indonesia, Bali

I love Bali (and Barley)! It is beautiful and I’m a little embarrassed for not visiting this tiny island given that it is so near us!

If you want your man to grant your wishes, try asking at 6pm.
If you want to ask for a promotion, try asking at 1pm.
If your man argue with you at 3pm, wish him luck, cause women usually win an agreement at 3pm.

If you ask me if you should believe in such studies? My experience in my thesis research told me to take it with a pinch of salt. But for the fun of it, why not? HAH.




//I’m having difficulty naming this post. I wanted to call it Pet Emporium but it has nothing to do with the food featured below. I wanted to call it a day out with Barley, but she was in the glass room most of the time. It wasn’t exactly a food hunt or food trail as well, since we sort of chance upon them. HAH. The title ended up really random. Opps.

We brought Barley to the groomer – Pet Emporium – this weekend! The owner, Samantha and Sheryl – an identical twin – was really friendly! It’s always nice to see young entrepreneurs! Instead of pursuing a boring life in an accounting career / education after her diploma, they decided to open a pet grooming shop together! Coolio!

The four lhasa puppies running around their store is a bundle of joy! They are really adorable and Barley wasn’t too happy when she saw me playing with them! HAHA.

Just because she looks fluffy all the time, it doesn’t mean she is fat! In fact, Barley is skinny!

One of those unglam moments! I need their powerful hair dryer for Barley!

They are very adorable. Hyperactive and always jumping and bumping into one another. HAH. Didn’t manage to grab a picture of them staying still. HAHA.

While waiting for Barley, we ate at the famous scissor cut rice!

It looks like crap but it tastes really good!

We also chance upon this Foochow’s pancake-like dish and it was too good! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and the prawn, oyster and meat in there were heavenly!

I bought lipstick jungle from eBay! With $5 I got a book in good condition and I just saved a tree! Reduce, reuse, recycle!

The seller is sweet to wrap it up in a nice gift wrapper! It feels like a belated birthday present!
