Friday, 14th of May 2010.. A lazy Friday afternoon leisure stroll to & fro Ice Cream Chefs.. :d

It was an enjoyable lazy afternoon I had last Friday..

Took a slow leisure stroll along the Siglap Park Connector.. :)

It was a very cloudy day and the sun was hiding behind the clouds the entire afternoon.. :)

Extremely beautiful weather for a leisure stroll.. :)

Dropped by Ice Cream Chefs

along the way..

I tried their Kaya Lotee Ice-Cream with a mix-in of shortbread.. :)

Super yummy and refreshing! :)

After indulging in my ice-cream, I spent the rest of the afternoon sitting in the nearby park reading my book.. :)

Nice, quiet place with a tranquil ambience.. :)

We also strolled down (the well-known district for its fashion & the arts) - Haji Lane,

which was just parallel to Arab Street..

We have not visited the place for quite awhile since last year..

After the leisure stroll, we headed to Liang Seah Street

where we stopped over at Lai Lai Family Restaurant for tea..

I tried their Pork Floss & Cheese Toast, Thick Peanut Butter Toast & their Red Milk Jasmine Bubble Tea which all tasted not bad..

(Too hungry & busy eating that I didn't bother to take any pics this time.. :d)

Talking about food..

This week, on Monday & Wednesday night, I also brought Shawn Ethan for dinner at Ishi Mura Japanese Food Street, located inside Yishun's Northpoint Shopping Centre.

That was our third/fourth time there..
We tried their Salmon Steak Cream Sauce Omelette Rice, Black Pepper Beef Omelette Rice, Scallop Cream Sauce Omelette Rice..

So yummy! ;d

Shawn & I also tried their Ishi Special Yaki Soba & Vegetable Pancake Okonomiyaki..

That's Shawn Ethan posing with our food.. :d Wahahaha! ;D

Watched 2 movies on DVD this week as well..

Surrogates (2009)


I wouldn't say this movie was superb or awesome..

But I must say it was surprisingly compelling for a Sci-Fi film..

A fine performance by Bruce Willis..

His character's journey through the bizarre world in the movie is obviously the heart of the film and it's written and portrayed very well.

12 Lotus《12莲花》(2008)

People who know me well will know that I'm an ardent movie fan of Hollywood Blockbusters & it's absolutely obvious, even from all my past years of previous blog posts, one will definitely notice that I watch mainly Hollywood movies, even though I do watch Chinese movies & local films occasionally..

The above movie was one which I've postponed watching for quite some time till Clement passed me the DVD recently..

After watching it, I felt that this film is average.

I felt that the storyline is too over-the-top.

In fact, I felt that it was not as good as 881 (an earlier movie by Royston as well).

I enjoyed 881.

I personally felt that this film has lots of weak points & even its quality, I've noticed, is not as good as 881.. [Example, I'm not sure if I am the only one noticing that the film tends to look "grainy" in many parts?]

However, I am moved by the committed performances of Liu Ling Ling and Mindee Ong.

One could see the amount of hard work and effort that was put in by them and the director.

Their splendid acting, I must say, was simply a pleasure to watch.

Found another KOI Bubble Milk Tea

wannabe yesterday evening! :p

Well, I happened to be passing through Bedok Central after visiting the Bedok National Library yesterday to return a library book which I've just finished reading..

Happened to "stumble" upon this Bubble Milk Tea outlet..

Thus I decided to purchase a cup of its Bubble Milk Tea to taste & see if it's nice..

Nah.. After trying it, I must say this Bubble Milk Tea is definitely not as nice as KOI's & is no way anywhere comparable to KOI's..

Time flies when one is enjoying oneself.. :)

Yeah.. Time flies.. It's been 1 month since I've stopped working! :)

It's been an enjoyable month, I must say.. :)

Managed to rest & relax.. :)

Do the things I wanna do.. :)

Taking my own sweet time in everything I do.. :)

Spend time meeting up with friends, relatives.. :)

Spending more time with family members.. :)

It's been a wonderful 1 month of well-deserved break.. :)

The Jonas Brothers (Jonathan & Shawn) strikes again! Wahahaha! [25/04/2010]

Below are the photos taken while we were at Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 3 yesterday.. :)

Mummy, is this your drink? I want some too! :/

Hmm.. Mummy, how come you didn't leave any for me? :/

Hmm.. Kor Kor's food looks yummy.. But I'm happy making do with mummy's cup.. ;)

Shawn Ethan feasting on his Blackened Salmon Pasta from The Pasta Shop @ Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 3.. :)

Mummy, I'm bored.. :/

My yummy Bacon & Egg Carbonara Pasta from The Pasta Shop @ Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 3 .. :)

Ebi & Spinach Pasta from The Pasta Shop @ Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 3 .. :d

P.S.

Noticed the little cut/bump on our little boy, Jonathan Ezra's forehead, just above his right eyebrow?

Yeah, our poor little boy received that little cut/bump just 1 over week ago when he was busy walking around at home & he tripped & injured himself there..

[Our dear boy has been super actively walking/running around all the time on his own ever since he started walking around without any support when he turned 15 months old]

That little cut/bump was caused by his tripping over a door hinge..

Thank God for His protection that our dear little boy didn't suffer any serious injury and especially avoided/not receiving any injury on his eye etc..

Really thank God for His all-time protection over our family members! :)

Long awaited photos.. Photos taken with my beloved gal pal, Amanda, & my beloved churchmates, on my birthday last month! :)

The Double Trouble.. ;D

In the serious manner.. :)

Me! :p

Like my dearest CGL & also a close brother to me always say.. "Aiyah.. This Grace ah.. After so many years of being in my CG.. She's still the naughtiest member around.. Win already.."

So can you imagine what's it like having me as a pioneer member of the church for the past 16 years?! :p

Hmmm.. Well, at least 1 of the good things I did was to help built it for all those past years lah..

Haha! ;D

Our dear boy, Jonathan Ezra, & Amanda! :)

Aunt Betty, Me & my dear bro, Chee Foo.. :)

Eh.. How come I'm sleeping here ah?! :/

Mandy & the adorable one.. :d

The Famous Frown.. ;)
