An Update on Isetan Private Sale
Dunno is it been to too many rounds of the isetan private sale, suddenly like got nothing to buy.

Went on tue to make reservation and can you believe it, i only reserve a mphosis top after walking so many rounds in isetan scott.. haiz..

went down on thurday to collect my stuff after work.. reached scott ard 0730pm.. damn crowded.. need to queue even to collect my reserve top frm mphosis.
Procedure:
  1. go to the gal to collect ur reserve item (q not so bad)
  2. go to mphosis with ur reserve item to get the memo issued (q was very very very bad, heng i ask J to q for me while i go shop ard first, alot of old stocks.. a bit tempted to buy but coz the q for the fitting rm is long.. i discourage the idea)
  3. go make payment @ cashier.. get the paid invoice and exchange for your item.

Don't they think they can shorten the procedure... so many steps...

Damage @ isetan Scott - paid with isetan voucher given by the ex-twm gang for my bday

  • Mphosis Top @ 30% discount
  • Croc Shoe @ 20% discount

brought J to the sale.. and in the end.. he spend $300+ there and got $70 back in return. Under my grumbling of "quick, quick", coz i was suppose to go isetan wisma to meet lydia and i was late.. he made his decision to make the purchases in less than 15min.. haha.. 15min $230 for a Braun Buffel wallet n Timberland shoe.. okie lah, quite worth it right..

Went isetan wisma to get my clarin & fancl stuff. spend $200+ at clarin and $100 at fancl. luckily out of the total amt, only got a cleanser, sunblock and washing powder for myself. the rest are helping others to purchase.. but these burn a big hole in my debit card.. now left only $42.

lastly dinner @ 0920pm, called up to check what time is their last order.. and guess where we (me, lydia, J) went........

~~Bakerzin @ Paragon~~

to fulfil my craving of eating their warm chocolate cake.....yummy yummy..

and i guess nxt time if so late go home.. i will insist to take a cab back (although waiting for cab @ orchard is also fustrating).. it was such a long journey home.. reach hme at almost 12.... 1 hr 30min journey..

Regular Updates
just some regular updates to my blog since last monday.
The week was spending with meeting up with frenz for dinner.
thur nite met up with eileen, jolene, christine, jason, ap, charmaine, dengli for dinner @ Togi.
This time round, manage to eat the Korean steamboat i been wishing for. not quite bad, got seafood, crab n alot of kimchi. i realised that if we eat as a group there, its quite cheap, 1 person only amount to less than $11 and you can try many different stuffs.

Fri, got $70 tangs voucher (frm my mum n boon), so decided to go tang c c got wat thing nice to utlise it on. before that went HMV wif J to buy callyn birthday present.
YES.. preorder the Jolin Agent J album for her liao.


tangs is really a worse choice to buy vouchers from.. nothing in the sport section interest me, then the ladies section even worse.. not to my liking.
in the end cum to a conclusion.. think i use the voucher to buy a non-camera phone ba.. just top up with a bit of cash..
finally we went for dinner at cineleisure at ard 10+. tried the Korean No. 1 Chicken Resturant @ the basement.. n.. concluded.. is mine 1st time and last time there..


although pricing of the food is okie.. the chicken is cold... yet they charge me 10% for taking order n clearing the dish.. haiz..
make up for the worse dinner by having deserts @ level 1 chicago steakhouse.. at least that make my day better.. food is alot nice..

lastly sat attended the ettusis beauty workshop, learnt some nice stuff.. but i think i played too much over the week. was quite tired.. can u believe i reach home at 8+ on a saturday nite...

Seque to My Birthday


Nice Cake right... Is Awfully Chocolate Rum n Cherry Cake...

Dinner with Kelly, Jason & Ah li san yesterday at Raffles City Out of the Pan to celebrate my birthday.
This is not a simple dinner and the intention is tis cake is not supposingly to be eaten....
yap, this is a sequel to J Birthday Cake Smashing.. n is my turn now for my chocolate SPA.
so i purposely choose a cake i like, since i am prepared to be smashed.. choose awfully coz i saw in forum for their well-known choco cake..
but luckily, this cake is not creamy, its more like jelly jelly choco on the outside... so i was not so kelian like J who undergo cake spa for 5 times.. mine was only twice..

so who nxt on the birthday list ~~~ Ms Kelly.. her takashimaya basement Swiss Bakery Strawberry Cream Cake

Oh ya, need to thanks Kelly, J for the dinner, cake n Kel for queuing up for donut factory (although the q tis time is really shorter) & not forget J who Paid for it....

Stupid 8 to 8 Beauty - OPI
Recently i opened a spree among my spree to buy OPI nail polish from US directly as they only sell at 1 bottle ard USD$3.98. even if we add up shipping and convert to SGD, 1 bottle only $10 which is alot cheaper than singapore selling at ard SGD$20++.
Make the order via the website ard the 1st or 2nd week of August. Finally saw that they deduct the payment from my credit card last week and the invoice came in saying item will be shipped out with the tracking number.

Waited for 5days and item arrived at my house on saturday. Was feeling very happy, but who know this came instead - a manicure set

Which was totally not what i ordered. i ordered around 15 bottles of nail polish, how to split amongs my frenz with this box of thing.
So i wrote an email to them... been 2 days lei, no sound. maybe its weekend over their side.

so my frenz - Lydia, Shihling, Xiangling, Eve... u all hve to wait patiently for me to settle.
i going to demand them to ship my item over, n they have to incur the shipping charges

Shopping Spree with Devil Cal
Haha.. Devil Cal == Ms Callyn


went on a shopping spree yesterday 15/9 after passing mooncake to winnie at taka.

The 2 of us combed, Wisma, Bugis Village, Bugis Junction, Excelsior Hotel Basement and lastly part of PS.
Actually this meeting was quite a last minute thing as our Ms callyn is so keen on looking for her high waist skirt.. something like in the picture below..

Cant find it in orchard, so we decide to go paragon for lunch. I suggested bakerzin coz i missed the Warm Chocolate Cake with Vanilla ice-cream.

After that we went Bugis Village in search for her skirt and i also went to do some sight-seeing. ^^
In the end, she managed to found her skirt and i also got something extra.. i bought a pair of skinny jean [ya ya, i know, juz bought jean at the levi sale and got a white skinny jean 3wks back, but its just to nice to resist] and a white hand carry bag.

Thanks Ms Devil Cal... she bought me the white bag as my birthday present.. [coz she say she the one that found it and ask me to buy]. To her: i loved it very much, next time go shopping will bring it along.
After that as its was my birthday week, we went charles n keith at bugis junction for the 20% discount. Went bugis parco and saw the YES 933 <<乖乖>>concert by 樱桃帮. manage to get some pictures with my camera phone.


Well, here the total bill for the damage at Charles n Keith.


1st time such a long bill other than grocery shopping bills...

and the no. of paper bags given

Total Damages: 3 bags, 3 pairs of high heels shoes..

heng not all are mine, some are fiona, Shihling and Callyn.. i only got a bag for myself. managed to get 1 more Charles n Keith member card under fiona name, so when her birthday approached, we can go buy shoes again..

the Charles n Keith staff were so happy.. esp PS outlet..

Total Damages for the Day: Both of us... around $400 inclusive of drinks n makam

14th September 2007
Supposingly to knock off work at 0430pm coz i at HQ n its friday (sport hr)... but becoz of the delay in the collection of mooncake, i reached home at 6pm.

went to wash up and prepare to go for dinner..reached vivo city at 8pm++ after manage to find a parking lot (cant believe so many pple go vivo on fri nite, so big carpark yet full).
Went dinner at Bosses 黑社会 resturant - known for Shanghai & Cantonese Food.
been feel like trying a long time ago as this resturant look very secretive... look black black from the outside..
Ordered the 鸢鸯 Australian beef steamboat for 2 and drinks.
As i feeling cold, i asked the staff there for warm water. There reply was "they don't serve water, need to buy". i was like, emm... quite strange for a chinese resturant...
feel like replying them "in this case, i buy mineral water, can you warm it for me.. hahah"

Instead of the traditional peanut, they serve this pot of vegetable in replacement:


There were carrot, chip and cucumber (the cucumber i don't like coz its not japanese cucumber and its taste very raw, eating the carrot give me the feel of a rabbit).. and can you believe its compulsory to pay $3.80 before tax for this vegetables.. i think i rather pay so much for peanuts, as least my tummy is more comfortable with it.


This is the appetizer 开胃菜 for our set, the staff say is FREE.. complimentary from the resturant.. pickled steam egg, sour vegggy, and spicy veggy.


Next came the main dish, the ingredients for steam boat and the piping hot wok to dump our food in. Although the ingredients look little (only 1 pc for each kind), unexpectally its quite full. The Australian beef is quite tasty but too bad, a bit not sufficient & as usual alot of veggy stuff underneath...
The overall experience there is quite okie.. food wise okie okie, ambiene so so also lah. not as secretive as its seem to be. maybe next time we can find more people to go there try the Shanghai cusine in dishes.. so to get a more better experiences n feel.
Initial plan was to go St James after dinner, but was feeling quite tired after a day of work n meeting.. so in the end we went sight seeing..
went to Mt Faber, Labrador Park, West Coast Park, Jurong Hill before going home..
Almost comb all the night sight seeing places of west area.
quote me, top view frm mt faber, jurong hill view, sea-view & breeze from labrador..

Birthday Week Schedule
oh, its been a long long time since i been blogging.
this week has been quite busy. meeting up with frenz for dinner, celebrating my birthday..
yah, i officially 24 liao.. old right.. sianz...
Shopping spree, utilising my birthday privileges.... hahaha...

Events for the week:
10/9 - Meeting ex TWM colleagues at Vivo Kim Gary to celebrate QT n mine bday
11/9 - Meeting ex Vandashima colleagues at Toa Payoh Sizzler to collect mooncakes
12/9 - Rest Day
13/9 - Try mooncake in HQ, Meeting frenz for dinner
14/9 - Buying mooncake again, My bday dinner at Vivo Bosses cafe follow by tours ard Singapore nite places
15/9 - Went facial, go taka help winnie collect mooncake, shopping spree with Callyn
16/9 - Rest Day

Its a miracle if i do not grow fat coz from what we see, i had been eating, playing n buying mooncakes..
so what with the mooncakes thing, well it that i am able to get corporate pricing for mooncakes purchases like
  • Raffles Hotel 25% off
  • Fullerton Hotel 20% off i think
  • Amara Hotel 20% off
  • Four Season Durian 25% to 30% off
  • Homes Favourites 20% off i think
  • Tung Lok 30% off
  • Goodwood Park 20%
  • etc.. i forgot liao.

so anyway as usual i ask ard to see who want to buy, so that i can help them purchase. then as some are snow-skin durian mooncakes, they must be kept in fridge, so i need to find alternatives (like thick skin go ask, can i go other outlet to collect, can use staff card go ur hotel buy etc etc)...

in the end, i got Home Favourite for my family [coz they got the black gold durian, seem special] and Tung lok for my grandparents.. help winnie to buy 4 seasons durian n Tung lok.. spend ard 3 days coordinating on this mooncake issue.. haha..

actually hor, these vendors n hotels even after giving these corporate discount right, they still earn alot alot, esp those who buy snow skin, don't even need to bake the mooncakes, just flour and durians...

Those frenz who missed this year, maybe nxt yr remember to be more active or more careful (to ah li san) and best to ask me for such lobang again ba....

  • 2gb SD card
  • camera case
  • tripod stand
  • 2 AA rechargeable battery n charger
  • umbrella (was really a good gift as its was raining heavily the whole noon)
