Back to Singapore

I'm back in Singapore. 2 weeks flew past just like that! It seemed like only yesterday that we were all frenzy over packing and waiting excitedly at Dubai airport for our transit to London. My first impression of the airport was, the place is crazy. There were always full of people shopping regardless of time.

Monkeying around at Dubai Airport

We've been to so many places within such a short time and were basically backpacking with a huge luggage hahaha. I think it was pretty tough traveling on your own in Europe with a luggage. It is more of a tour or back packing place. (It has been hard on the guys. Thanks!)

Anyway, my favourite place is London.

Big Ben

I think London bears some resemblance to Singapore. It is a bustling city, people speak English and we are familiar with most of the brands. Whereas in Paris and Italy, besides the branded stuff, we are not as familiar with the brands as well as the language. Nonetheless, my fav structure is the Eiffel tower. Heard that it looks ugly in the day but I went at night when the tower was lighted up. Cool!


That's a short summary for now. I have not got the chance to view all of them. More to come...

The Orange Timber

Today was a pretty chill day, walking around, eating and reading my book! It has been a long time since I walked along Blk 85 market. I think the last time was during my sec sch days, on my way back to my grandma house after sch. Since I had breakfast there with my grandma today, I showed der the old sch cake shop where Cham and I bought a huge cream cake (not those fanciful ones we get these days) and finished it all by ourselves under the void deck! Der and I couldn't resist the temptation to buy a slice each :) Strawberry vs blueberry...Only $1.10 each. Those miniture ones that are sold at toast box cost $1.20 and they are only 1/3 the size of this! What a rip off for something nostalgia... Later in the evening, we decided to chill at The Orange Timber @ Tiong Bahru The Orange Timber is a cafe cum art gallery. The plates are bowl used were also meant to be something nostalgia once again... hah However, I use those cutlery at home too. There are like 3 sections to this small cafe...

Happy Chinese New Year!

Pending Down My Thoughts for 2021

 10.07pm, 31 Dec 2021.  The year 2021 is coming to an end. The year of Covid. The year we left LA and returned to Singapore for good. It has been 9 months since we got back but I still feel like it happened so recently. One of the Singaporean family we met in LA and hung out very often is in town to visit. Charlotte asked if we can return to LA together. She asked if we are really not going back anymore. We all miss LA a lot. Definitely much more than Moscow even though Moscow is a very memorable place too.  Spent the day at Sentosa, The Luge. Kiddos had a lot of fun despite the heat. I enjoyed myself a lot too and I am missing the times we hung out in LA. Thinking about them going back and us staying behind makes me a little sad. The kids still got along very well even though we have not met for sometime. Hopefully their friendship will remain as they continue to grow up. Recap of 2021 1. I realized I can bake.  2. I love making bread or trying to make food cute. 3....
