Setting Foot in Moscow

I have safely arrived in Moscow. The weather is perfect with temperature ranging about 16-20 degrees in the day. I just have to wear a light jacket and I am good to go. It's summer in Moscow so the days are longer than the night. Russians love this period as I guess sunlight and a little warmth is a luxury to them hah. This is my attire when I went walking around the neighbourhood.
It is only my 2nd day so I have not done any exploring. Derrick just brought me around the neighborhood on day 1 to familiarize myself. We also managed to have dinner with Derrick's colleague, a very nice couple :) The food was good and I loved the borsch soup. It is healthy and the taste is to my liking. Maybe I should learn how to cook that hah. I had a new friend with me at dinner.. Mr Black Cat. I can't remember its name. It was scary eating with a cat staring at me. We told the restaurant staff and all they said was it's ok! and left. Gosh... I ate half my dinner in fear before the cat left.
Anyway, I also mopped the floor of the entire apartment this morning! The last time I tried mopping the floor was when I was 3 years old as mopping looks fun to be. Mopping is tiring! But I'm glad the floor is much cleaner now and my feet is no longer black when I walk around! My apartment is pretty good. Very spacious. We have 2 guestroom and 1 master bedroom.

This is the kitchen, pretty much open concept.
I have 4 cupboards in my rm.. but sadly, I don't have much clothes here. I wish I have this back home.
 
My bed. Can you spot my spotty flat bunny? hah. I think I'm going to bring my bolster over the next round.
The bathroom. I disinfected the Jacuzzi this morning :) time to buy some bath salts to soak myself in. A luxury that I will not have back in Singapore as my new hs will be so small.
Alright. Time to prepare to go out for dinner. I only ate cereal with milk and some potato chips all day. My mum will definitely scold me if she knows about this haha

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...

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....
