Tsentsen, Karaoke, JB, Muar and stubby digits.

Tsentsen was in town recently and we hit the karaoke joint. The last time we sang together heā€™d got a bad sore throat so I had no one to duet with. Glad he could indulge me this time!

The duet.

We had so much fun! I wish I could karaoke every night. Tsen is an amazing singer, heā€™s performed in Carnegie Hall, ok!

After that, we adjourned to Williamā€™s for some supper. I had my favourite mushroom soup while Tsen got his dose of delicious cheese naan.

Camhoring at Williams.

The next dayā€¦.

Went to Kulai to attend a friendā€™s wedding. It was lovely! One of those weddings that is done the way the couple wants it and not because itā€™s ā€œsupposedā€ to be like that.

Boo and me at the wedding.

We stayed overnight in Kulai. Had dimsum for supper at 3am. It was one of the best dimsum Iā€™ve had. Big fresh juicy prawn dumplings and wholesome porridge. Errrā€¦obviously forgotten to take pictures again because I was too into the food =P

I did however, captured the mesmerising dollop of chilli sauce.

Next morning, we decided to stop in Johor Bahru. It was a disappointing trip. The traffic jam was worse than KLā€™s and the food wasnā€™t even good. We ate at this place because we saw some pictures of Singaporeā€™s quasi-celebrities dining at the restaurant. I should have known not to trust the taste buds of Singaporeansā€™. No offence really, but Iā€™ve had my fair share of Singaporean food and they are quite frankly, really bad. So, I really wouldnā€™t blame our neighbours for actually enjoying the less than fantastic fare weā€™ve got to offer.

We wanted to go to Danga Bay after lunch but a massive downpour hit us and the traffic jam got even worse. Didnā€™t help matter that Danga Bay signboards also went missing after several turns. We decided to abandon JB and head up to Muar.

When boredom struckā€¦

On our way to Muar, we called the Suan to ask for directions to the infamous otak-otak. But girl told me sheā€™s in the Land of Smiles so I quickly cut short the conversation (Iā€™m such a considerate friend, ok) and decided to hunt the place down ourselves. After asking a few people from different petrol stations, we got to Bentayan Food Court.

Had 40 sticks of otak-otak. They were AWESOME. I forgot to take any picture because I was too busy eating, obviously. After otak-otak, we drove around somemore to look for soto. We failed in our quest though, so no soto =(

And here are completely random pictures of my digits because I really love my nail colours. I bought the nail polish eons ago but never used it because the colour didnā€™t look good from the bottle. Glad I tried it on and Iā€™m loving it now.

I want to be a little lamb.

Iā€™m no longer the fresh faced girl I used to be. It hit me yesterday, while I was putting on makeup for a romantic dinner and a night out at Laundry with my boo. The foundation couldnā€™t spread evenly, the tiny pores that never used to bother me seemed to have gotten much bigger than I last remembered. The concealer, shit..why am I using one now?

(Although my alcohol tolerance remain unchanged -_-)

Then I tried to camho at the restaurant, and did a few Internet disease pose but I couldnā€™t help but cringe at how wrong they look. I punched the delete button furiously and hoped to erase the nightmare from my thoughts. ~_~

And then I realised why Iā€™ve gotten so many empire waist dresses and tops. I wish it was merely a trend. Itā€™s not. Itā€™s my belly. Yes, two days of not eating doesnā€™t work as well as it did anymore. Nowadays, Iā€™ll only look fit perhaps after 1.5 months of vigorous climbing on the power stepper and endless vegetable soups.

Look ma, another empire waist top!

I look at all these barely 18 year old spring chickens in their skimpiest clothes, and I miss my slutty tops that I can no longer wear due to my dreaded muffin top.

Muffin top.

I miss my taut belly, I miss my shapely legs, I miss my clear dewy skin, I miss a time when I could get away with murder. Must be time for gym.

My first NuffNang ad!

Finally, I got my lazy arse around to move my NuffNang banner up from its previous position. In less than 3 days, Iā€™ve already gotten my first ad.

Perak Hotel in Singapore. Iā€™ve only just realised that the colours of the ad blend in with my blog too. Cool!

So people, please heed Timā€™s advice, do bring the banner up!

Thanks Tim, Ming and co. You guys are doing a great jobā€¦keep it up!

p/s: One word for Speed Zone Tour 2007. AWESOME. So awesome in fact, I feel sorry for those who didnā€™t go or couldnā€™t get the tickets (sold out before clock struck 8pm). 13,300 people were there to party, and only 7300 of them had tickets. So yes, that means 6000 of the revellers were actually dancing outside the vicinity of the party. IT WAS GOOD SHIT ALL THE WAY. Pictures soon!
