A tribute to my shoes

I always faced difficulties in finding the right pair of shoes, mainly cuz I am a size 3/4. I used to shop a lot @ Charles & Keith until they raised their prices in an attempt to "up-market". As such, I shopped at Mondo and discovered that they sell shoes @ affordable prices. Thus, I will tend to buy the same pair of shoes (provided it's comfy enough) over and over ...

I first threw away this pair of shoes when it lived beyond its usefulness in LDN

Replaced it with an identical pair and had to throw away the 2nd pair in India

Thus, I went down to the shop again and got myself a brand new pair @ 20% off!


I wonder how long this new pair will last me .... ?

Depot Road Claypot Laksa

Today, Blamer decided to bring me to one of her hideouts where she "lunches" with her flings. (For the exact location of this store, please drop a note to Blamer, ha ha)

This shop claims to be the original Depot Road Claypot laksa, however, if I remember correctly, the actual stall is supposed to be located at the hawker centre near Queenway Shopping Centre. Hmm.. anyway, decided to give it a try.

The Laksa

Attack!

To further confirm my suspicions, this shop not only sells laksa, Blamer ordered claypot chicken rice.

To my best knowledge, the original Depot Rd Claypot Laksa only sells laksa... ...

Anyways, Blamer still likes the food here. I think it's becos this place is located quite a fair distance from where I would usually lunch. Hence, she can 偷情 without bumping into me.

Dedicated to Leecher

Leecher once promised to write 情书 for me during the 1st month where we were together. I still remembered the time when he would ask me how to write the characters in chinese (it's like I am filling in the blanks of my own 情书) Subsequently, the 情书 failed to materialise since Leecher thought that I would not 追究 anymore, haha. (too bad, cuz Qian, Miao & Fling will know that I have super good memory and I will just bring it up again :P)

It's still funny to think that our love started over a cup of chrysanthemum tea (yellow again). Leecher made me chrysanthemum tea (he leeched on EK way back then - cuz it was EK who brought the stuff into the tutorial room) when we were studying for our exams. Silly me was almost touched to tears (ya, cuz he was very sincere and remembered that I only drink hot drinks)

Those were the days - though we have our own storming period as well, but 在一起的时光,充满了欢笑和很多很多的爱. I will still continue to love you even when your waist line has increased from 29" to 31"; when you have more white hairs on your head; when you continue to snore in your sleep; when you refused to sponsor me for my shopping trips etc

Looking fwd to grow old with you- holding hands and strolling in the park,watching TV on our L-shaped sofa and caring for little Keith & little Caihong, giving them lots of love :)

Love Post

Roses are red and Violets are blue... ...

Isn't this a classical sentence back in those Secondary sch days, when hormones started taking over, and ppl just do silly things to get the attention of the opposite sex. For example, writing love letters? Passing small pieces of papers around the class to the girl tat caught ur eye?

Hmm, why am I bringing these up all of a sudden? Because, Blamer had been breathing down my neck about giving her a love letter ever since our first month, ha ha. Love letter? Just how to start this?

Not really a language person, but I must say that for 30 months of my life, they were filled with fun, laughter, tears, frustrations and of cos, Love. Still remember the first time "She" caught my eye. I was late for lecture and when I enter the room, someone in a bright yellow top was waving her hands at me and smiling ever so cheerfully as if she was happy to see me here, that I was there to brighten up her day and I thought, that's a pretty girl... ...

And so started the months of courtship (which she doesn't consider those as courtships), of late nights of sending her back after school (during the exam period when we stayed really late in sch) and finally, I managed to "break" her on one overseas trip where I played the hero saving the damsel in distress. (special thanks to two buddies back then for helping out ha ha)

Those were the past, what I really want to say is thank u for being there for me always, though at times u were quite irritating, crude, selfish and unreasonable, my love for u just deepens day by day and has blinded me in all aspects i.e. I will still buy that bag for u. Wa ha ha ha!

Leecher loves Blamer always!

Fossil Private Sale

Fossil Private Sale - my annual watch-buying event

Reached the place @ 12.05pm and there was already a long queue at the collection counter. Strange, late for 5 mins only, pple already went inside and come out le?

Shopped for 45 mins - super crowded, but with my petite size, I was able to squeeze through all the people, helping Leecher to "开路". Even saw my sec friend inside, 真巧! After all the jostling, time to queue up for payment (smooth traffic) & collection of the watches. Waited almost 45 mins just to collect the watches. Think they need to do something about the traffic control next time.

Leecher with the sales memo ...

Getting bored of the waiting ~

Total damage - 3 DKNY watches for me and 1 Diesel watch for Leecher. Not forgetting that we bought our first couple watches, heehee. (ya, we forgot to adjust the time first before taking this pic)

Happy gal with all the purchases (trying not to look @ the damages done to my wallet though)
