A way to learn/understand Korean is to immerse in their culture - Wearing Hanbok



"You don't have to travel to Korea to wear a traditional Korean Hanbok" - Yours truly

Haha! This is me trying on one at my Korean class last week - dressed by my teacher LOL! One thing I find really amusing is this hanbok can fit all sizes and height, it's like free size! Really easy to wear too! I figure my teacher took the easiest to wear of the lot. Heh.

And it's so pretty cause I'm wearing my favourite colour!
I'm so going to add "to try korean hanbok" in my itinerary (for the fun and experience) when I travel to Korea in future. Not sure when but it will come. Else I learn Korean for what! LOL!

 Meanwhile I shall just anticipate our BKK trip this Dec!! Woohooo!! Tickets and accomodation settled during a promotion recently! Cannot wait for the day to come! The shopping and the foodd!! :D:D

Kok Wei and Jasline's Solemnization :)


Last Sunday, we attended Kok Wei and Jasline's solemnization held at a Vegetarian restaurant in Coronation Plaza!

We woke up bright and early for breakfast and set off to Bukit Timah at 10.30am. A shot in the car before moving off!.

We also shared and bought this cute Hello Kitty and Daniel in their gown/suit. So perfect for my friend cause she's a huge fan of Hello Kitty!

Reached the place at 11pm. And as more and more guests arrived, lunch was served around noon. I was too embarrassed to whip out my phone each time a new dish was served so I only had 2 photos. :/ They have 8 courses in total!

I find this really cool. The darker side is made of the chinese 发菜 and the lighter side made of 豆腐皮. They were made in a way like those shark fin's broth. 

During lunch, at 13:14, they commenced their solemnization ceremony! It's quite obvious why they choose that timing right. Hehe.

Reading their vows to each other :) One of the heartiest and loveliest laughter that I have ever seen coming from this friend of mine.

And they sealed it with a kiss (:

Photos with the Mr and Mrs!

And a group photo of us ladies! :D

Congrats my friend! 嫁出去了!

After lunch ended, we hopped by Coupinette which was just next door. Heard they served awesome Eggs Benedict so we were there to try.

Chilling with the boy on a Sunday afternoon at a cosy cafe. So surreal and relaxing :)

And we had their renowned Eggs Benedict! The hollandaise sauce was the key difference! So smooth and eggy and buttery! Very yummy but sinful indeed! We gobbled up one each (:

With his flat white (:

Credits to Dearie who took this very prettz photo of me with my cranberry juice and then commented that I act yi ge chio. HELLO I DONT NEED TO ACT CAN? HAHA!

Here's our OOTD photos as we wait for the car to cool.

I was wearing a 5" heels that were high but thankfully stable. Just need some getting used to. Heh.

And my handsome! :D We were both in blue/white combinations that day, one of those days when I don't mind us wearing the same colour combination. Heh.

Ciaos!

We are 6!! ♥♥


Our favourite occasion of the year has come again, and it has got to be our anniversary! :')

It falls on a Monday this year and because of our clashing schedules, we decided to have a mini celebration last Friday evening! Dearie was contemplating to bring us to Kiseki Japanese Buffet Restaurant to feast the night away! 

He has been lemming about going since eons ago but always hesitated because I'm not a big eater and I dont eat raw food! So he always say its not worth it for me cause all I eat are those cheap food. :/ Nonetheless I managed to convince him to bring us there :D:D

Reached there around 6+pm and the queue was already forming! It moved rather fast though so we got seated after about 15 mins!

Once inside, we walked around and indeed they served a wide varieties of food! From fresh cuts like salmon, crab legs to sushis to cooked food! Photos below!
First round! Itadakimasu!

My small eyes boyfriend :'*

Donno why but I think I look very demure here. Lol. Okay end of self praise. :D

Lamb which was good!

Garlic fried rice and yaki soba which were a tad too salty

Yummo pizza!

Love the veggies too! Very crunchy and fresh!

Table full of food :D

The only photo we took while waiting for the machine to make coffee for us. Bad lighting boo!

And then Dearie decided to give me my card and pressie! Actually he gave himself away while he was scrolling through his phone's gallery when we were queuing outside. My sharp eyes immediately saw the photo of the pandora and its box. Lousy liar when he say he took it off the internet. Lol!

Feel loved nonetheless! :D So much for him saying he won't buy me anymore pandora charms! Heh. Happy me with my gift! :D

And I gave him mine too! Only the card here as his pressie is at his place. Gave it to him long ago when he discovered it over at my place :/

I think the card is so cute la! Got it off artbox. Hehe.

We left at around 9pm so you can imagine we really eat and chit chat slowly for the past 3 hours! Quite shiok actually! Hehe! Total bill adds up to about $80 for 2 so it's really affordable I feel! And the food is of great standard!

*

Went home and he happily took photos and change wallet! Couldnt really stand him with his grey (which used to be white) braun buffel wallet so I really see a need to give him a new wallet. And in black heh. Told him no more white stuff for him anymore. LOL!

Need to give credits to a friend at work for helping me to get this wallet for me when she went to Europe in May this year cause it is so cheap over there I think I saved about $200 odd!! And you can imagine how hard it was for me to keep this secret for the past 4 months!!



My happy boy with his pressies! ♥

Now we have the same brand of wallet! :D

A close up of the anniversary card cause I love the spongy alphabets and the cute stickers which he got during his stay in Beijing!

And a new addition to my charm! Really meaningful!

Pandora marketing slogan is "Unforgettable Moments", where people can get their charm to remember some of the significant moments/events in their life, and this charm definitely is!

Fell in love with it when I saw it in their Fairytale collection because I feel it actually signify one significant moment in our relationship when we agree to own a flat together in our own names, and we really got one ♥

 I love the delicate and intricate detail of this castle and I had since wanted to lay my hands on it so much but it really cost a bomb at $155!! Couldn't really bring myself to buy it cause it is soooo expensive! :(

So imagine how delighted and surprised and touched I was when Dearie got this for me although it seems like they jacked up the price! :O Nonetheless, it doubled the meaning and happiness and joy when this comes from him compared to me buying for myself! It's like my prince giving the castle to his princess (me). LOL. Okay too much fairy tale here. :D

Thank you baby for this unconditional love and spending such a bomb on this! But I love it! ♥

So we walked around in town to digest our bursting bellies and evil Dearie brought me to the new store opened at Paragon!! He knows I have been wanting to get a bag from Bal and hence brought me there asking if I want to take a look. Thank goodness it's closed else I really am not sure if I could withstand temptation! I'm still thinking whether am I prepared to pay $2k for a bag. :/


And it's officially 23/09/2013 as I am posting this entry. Just sent a really long sentimental whatsapp to my baby and heading for the bed. Good night everybody!

I had a lovely weekend with lots of love in the air! Will blog about my friend's engagement lunch in the next post!!
