Exclusive!

Angeline and Ck met up with Alan and Hazel to discuss about the coming Christmas party. Of course, the dinner was the main course and the discussion was only the appetizer.

For dinner, Alan brought everyone to this restuarant that serves authentic home cooked food. The restuarant is located opposite Clarke Quay and it is actually one of those old shophouses along the streets. The walls of the restuarant are decorated with photographs of their home cooked dishes and Alan cracked a joke that they should all inspire to finish all the dishes posted on the wall. After dinner, Angeline was seriously considering Alan's joke.

P/S: Dinner was really good and CHEAP (Angeline likes)!
P/P/S: Angeline is trying to think of excuses to go back and eat again.

Fa-La-La-La-La

Angeline is officially on leave till 2009. Angeline has been waiting for this year-end leave for the longest time ever and she feels as though it is never going to come.

Before Angeline goes on leave, Angeline received her Christmas presents from her colleagues and her children (much to her surprise). Angeline still haven't gone on any Christmas shopping yet. Isn't that obvious?

Thanks to SPC, Angeline found this set of super-duper festive candies and therefore, the candies were her presents to her colleagues and her children. Angeline is so lucky!

P/S: Please don't think that Angeline will blog long story when she is on leave hor.
P/P/S: Angeline is very busy one ok?

What's NEW for a long weekend?

Nothing is new because Angeline met up with her friends to eat buffet and play overnight mahjong over the long Haji weekend that had just passed. The group of 6 went to Lerk Thai's High-Tea buffet at Marina Square. Angeline thought that it was super woth it because it only costs S$15.80 for appetizers, main courses, desserts and drinks. Blogging about it is good enough to make Angeline craves to go back immediately. It is really that good, ok!

Angeline is still trying to recover from the overnight mahjong played over the long weekend. It was really a killer physically and mentally, as Angeline nearly lost all her chips and she indeed lost her sleep. Oh well!

P/S: Alan and Hazel were not featured because they were late.
P/P/S: Alex is the ONLY winner for mahjong. Please go and rob him!

The Story of the Gingerbread Man

One of Angeline's children bought a Gingerbread Man for his afternoon snack last week. Angeline saw it and teased the child if she could share the Gingerbread Man with him. The child shook his head and said no. Well, much to Angeline's expectation...

To Angeline's surprise, the child went home and asked his mother to buy Angeline a Gingerbread Man. He passed it to Angeline on the following day. Angeline was so touched. Angeline then decided to share it with Ck after work. They went to Killiney at Marina Square and enjoyed the Gingerbread Man with coffee and tea. Yummy!

P/S: Angeline broke the Gingerbread Man's arm by accident.
P/P/S: Angeline is thinking of baking Gingerbread Man for Christmas.

Do you know...

... Angeline's favourite festival is Christmas? Angeline gets sooooo excited counting down to Christmas. She is getting busy with all the Christmas shopping and the preparation for the Christmas party. Angeline really can't wait for Christmas to be here!

As a warm up for the festival, Angeline had just attended an early Christmas party held by her school. There was a gift exchange and food feast prepared for the staff. Initially, the plan was to play a game and guess the person whom you had recieved the gift from. However, the staff were more interested in the food feast. Thus, the game was officially cancelled and everyone just drew lots to exchange the gifts. Angeline got the No. 18 and it was an Esprit Towel Set. Angeline remembered that she has recieved this Towel set before. But the question is who gave it to her and where is it now?

Food feast was good with the table filled with pizzas, Kentucky fried chicken, fried chicken strips, chicken nuggets, coleslaw, mashes potatoes, Gyoza, curry puffs and soft drinks. Angeline ate the feast happily, even she was sitting in between her Director and Prinicpal. After eating, Angeline suddenly remembered that she was at the doctor with Stomach Flu the day before. Oh well! If Angeline is still blogging now, she is jolly well fine.

P/S: Ck is beginning to hunt for his CNY decorations.
P/P/S: CK's favourite festival is CNY.

This is MORE like it!

Angeline is so proud of herself. Angeline has been keeping her promise of eating healthier food. Angeline is happy to annouce that Subway sandwiches have been one of their (more) popular choice of food recently. Their favourite bread is Honey Oats and their favourite sauce is Honey Mustard.

Furthermore, Angeline thinks that Subway sandwiches are reasonably priced. For a 6-inch long sandwich, you pay about S$4 to S$7 (depending on your order). You can also choose to add another S$2.70 to upgrade to a meal that comes with a drink and a packet of chips or 2 Subway cookies. This is indeed good news for Angeline's shopping. Angeline is sure that Ck would prefer to see saving.

Actually, Angeline is still thinking if she likes Subway because their sandwiches are healthy and yummy or their cookies are delicious and unresistable. Did Angeline just say something about cookies? Please delete that. Angeline likes Subway because the food is healthy and yummy. Of course!

P/S: The cookies are really good!
P/P/S: Angeline decided to be honest about it.

Ding-Ding-Ding

Angeline's friend, Shu Ping is getting married and Angeline is invited to her bridal shower at Vanda. Of course, Angeline rememebers to get her a present to congratulate her. Angeline hopes that Shu Ping is excited about her present from the girls.

As usual, Angeline arrived late (because she was caught up at work) and everyone was eating their desserts when she got there. Angeline concluded that her friends are not very patient after all. Angeline quickly congratulated Shu Ping and Cliffton (Angeline has called him "Clifford" on a few occasions by mistake - OPPS!) and made a bee line for the food. After eating, Angeline wondered if the food was really good or she was really hungry. Nonetheless, Angeline enjoyed the Eclaris the best, so that had to be the best!

As Cliffton was around, Angeline was hestitated about taking photographs like she normally would. She waited for everyone to finish eating before she requested to take the photographs in the office. Angeline has kindly requested Cliffton to help all the girls to take a group photograph. Cliffton agreed happily and he seemed satisfied with what he had taken. After looking at the photographs, the girls exchanged the "we-better-take-it-ourselves" look. Angeline is convinced that Cliffton, Ck and Mike (Jo's hubby) would make good friends.

P/S: The photographs had been edited by Angeline accordingly.
P/P/S: Angeline has good photograph editing skills.
P/P/P/S: Angeline gives her well wishes to Shu Ping and Cliffton (especially the former because of she-knows-what).

What do you say?

This entry should not even be posted on here because it is about Angeline's buffet dinner at Tian Tian Huo Guo (Happy Pay Steamboat). Angeline don't regard eating steamboat buffet is a healthy choice (AT ALL). To convince herself (or to ease some guilt), Angeline ate a lot of vegetables (with lots of mutton, meatballs and pork's liver is more like it). Please don't be mistaken that these are the only food available at Tian Tian. The restaurant serves a wide range of food (Angeline is just being lazy not to name any), but Angeline only likes to eat these.

As recommended, Tian Tian's soup bases are really SHIOK! Angeline and her friends ordered Ma La (Hot & Spicy) together with Corn Ribs soup in the Yin Yong Pot. Each of them at least drank 2 big bowls of soup down. Angeline just told Ck that she wants to drink the Corn Ribs soup from Tian Tian this morning. Angeline swears that it is more just GOOD!

After eating so much, it is only healthy that the whole group went back to Alan's place to (dry) swim. The proposed activity is so healthy! What do you think?

P/S: The rates are quite reasonable with each adult paying only S$21.00.
P/P/S: That's why Angeline is going to eat there again soon.
P/P/P/S: What did Angeline say about eating healthier food?

A Hidden Treasure

Angeline celebrated her birthday with one of her friends (Pauline) at Hamoru Japanese Restaurant recently. As the food was really good, Angeline bought Ck back to the restaurant for dinner. Angeline could still remember how good the (simple) Garlic Fried Rice tasted. The food there is that GOOD!

Hamoru Japanese Restaurant is located at one corner of Food Republic at Sun Tec City. As both Angeline and Ck work near to that shopping mall, they meet up there quite often and had walked past by that restaurant at least one million times (ok, Angeline lied, maybe half a million times). But ever once did it occur to them that it was a Japanese Restaurant. Angeline all along had presumed that it was just any other stall at the food court.

You mean you KNOW?

P/S: Angeline is tempted to eat there tonight.
P/P/S: Angeline is thinking of eating the Garlic Fried Rice!

Greens!

Angeline still don't believe that she had actually sprained her neck just by a sneeze. Now, Angeline is seriously worried about getting old and sick. Therefore, she decided to eat healthier food and (maybe) lesser buffets. For a start, she met up with Ck at Grand Salad for a (super) healthy lunch at Sun Tec City.

For a price of S$8.50, you can get a (super-duper) big bowl of salad that is mixed from your own choice of vegetables, like lettuces, chick peas, kidney peas, corns, tomatoes, carrots, cashew nuts, raisins and Angeline forgot the rest. BUT she is sure that there are more vegetables for you to choose. If you think that the bowl of salad is not filling enough, you are WRONG. Angeline and Ck were both bloated after eating.

Go and try it!

P/S: Angeline bought the Pumpkin and Sweetcorn Puree for the glass jar that she needed for an experiment with her class.
P/P/S: Angeline had no choice but to eat the Puree.
P/P/P/S: Angeline is really eating so much healthier now!

Blessing in disguise?

With great anticipation, Angeline looks forward to the year-end picnic with her class at Katong Park. Unfortunately, Angeline sprained her neck just a day before the event. Oh well!

From Daiso at IMM, Angeline bought 2 frisbees and 1 (super bouncy) HOT PINK ball for the year-end picnic. Angeline was even thinking of bringing the badminton rackets or parachutes for the children to play at the park. Angeline has to admit that she is slightly disappointed that she is unable to make it.

Thankfully, Angeline couldn't resist the temptation of playing with the frisbee and began to play with her class a day just after she had bought the toys. Wahaha! It was just as well that she did it. If not, she wouldn't even get a chance to play at all because the blue frisbee that she has chosen to play has been broken by her class after a day of rough handling. Powerful anot!!!

P/S: If you have another interpretation of the blog title, be Angeline's guest. You might be right somehow.
P/P/S: Angeline is bored stiff at home with eating and sleeping.

Just like that!

Angeline don't think this entry is going to be long, neither is it going to be interesting. Please keep yourself entertained with the pictures and read the P/S notes to find out why is this so.

Angeline and Bao went to eat at Ichiban Boshi on 17 November 2008. Angeline and Bao reached the resturant at 7.15pm. Angeline and Bao ate Japanese bentos for dinner. Angeline and Bao finished dinner around 8.00pm.

The End.

Angeline did tell you that this is going to be a short and boring entry.

P/S: Angeline is on 2 days medical leave because she has sprained her neck.
P/P/S: Angeline is skeptical, worried and terrified about growing old.

Angeline is right!

Angeline has caught the musical 'Wizard of Oz' with Ck at Drama Centre (NLB). Angeline was right when she told Ck that he was bound to enjoy it. Ck was very thrilled about the musical and he was keen to watch more productions in the coming year. That is awesome news for Angeline!

If you have noticed that the photographs are sharper as compared to the previous ones, praise yourself for being observant. If not, Angeline would like to ask you, "What are you looking at?" Check out the new Samsung F480! It is Angeline's birthday present (from Ck) and her latest toy! Woohoo!

P/S: Angeline is actually keen to watch another production this year.
P/P/S: Angeline is skeptical about telling Ck, afterall, they just spent over 100 for 'Wizard of Oz'.

It's been a year!

Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday to Angeline!

Happy birthday to you!

A year flew past and Angeline is now 25 years old. Damn! A quarter of a century old and Angeline still don't have her own house, her own car, a good career (Angeline is being driven nuts at work everyday) and a good salary. Well, at least Angeline has a good partner, a good family and a group of good friends who will keep her company throughout her life journey! Angeline is grateful for that (although Angeline will feel even more grateful if she gets the rest of the goodness)!

P/S: Angeline would like to say thank you to everyone for the well wishes!
P/P/S: Angeline is not really looking forward to birthdays anymore, you know why la!

Be Impressed!

Angeline has been bugging Ck to watch a musical with her for the longest time ever. Finally, Ck relented and they decided to catch 'Wizard of Oz', which is a production by I Theatre. As the ticket prices for musicals are generally much higher than that of the movies, Ck was indeed very skeptical about it. After Angeline reassured him that he is bound to enjoy it, Ck agreed (with a very unconvinced look on his face). Grabbing the chance, Angeline and Ck went to purchase the tickets for the musical 'Wizard of Oz' at the Sistic booth at IMM almost immediately.

As it was a Friday, Angeline and Ck were window shopping around IMM when Angeline asked Ck if he wants to try cooking the following day. After thinking, Ck decided that it is better to dine out. So, Angeline offered to cook his dinner for him. After thinking (once again), Ck agreed but he wanted to buy the ingredients together with Angeline. Angeline suspected that he was worried about his dinner.

As Angeline enjoys cooking Western cuisine (as compared to Chinese), she decided to cook Potato Salad and Bolognaise. To complete the meal, freshly baked Fruit Cake and a bottle of wine were thrown into the dinner as well. Just in case you are thinking that Angeline baked the Fruit Cake, it was bought from the bakery readily. Hee!

After shopping with Ck, Angeline concluded that he is really an 'uncle'. He would choose his ingredients carefully and compared one with another. Angeline would simply grab and go. Well, Angeline needs to learn from him after all.

On saturday, Angeline impressed Ck with her culinary skills in cooking Western cuisine. Angeline was not exaggerating, Ck finished EVERYTHING that Angeline had cooked and he is the type who will only finish what he likes to eat. Angeline then bugged Ck to learn the Chinese cuisine from his mother, so that they won't have to stuff themselves with Angeline's cooking only. Angeline is indeed very smart!

P/S: Angeline has already watched Wizard of Oz, so she was late in blogging again.
P/P/S: Wizard of Oz was GOOD!

Oh no!

Angeline is feeling sad on her 25th birthday. She can no longer tell people that she is in her early twenties, but late twenties. Oh no!

But the good news is she has another 5 years before she joins the 30 club. Wahaha!

P/S: No celebration. The quarter of the century is enough to make Angeline sad the whole day.
P/P/S: Presents are most welcome though. Hee!
