HAPPY NEW YEAR FOLKS!
It's a brand new year of 2011 and let me conclude a bit on how 2010 had been.
Definitely agree with the saying that one year older, one year wiser,
and I am thankful for opportunities, experiences as well as lessons learned in the past year.
I suppose it might be my most hectic year in my life,
with the second last semester started in January to May,
and an internship in May till July, followed by the last term in school in August till December.
Wouldn't say it is a smooth sailing year, but definitely one which I had many first times,
and one which i made many new friends, and get in touch with the real working world.
FRIENDSHIP:
2010 was an absolutely great one for us.
Despite the busy schedule, I realised we have been meeting very frequently especially during weekends,
and they are the ones who keep me sane till now.
Names wouldn't be mentioned because you know exactly who you are.
And i just wanna say, a big thank you YOU for everything, girlfriends.
Thank you for standing by me in times of sorrows and happiness, giving me utmost faith and trust in me,
support and believe in me and not doubting me in anyway. That's all that i need.
Me too, feel the same way for you girls!
Of course, many other friends who have shown concern and care towards me,
or by making an effort to keep in touch by just a mere simple wassap msg or sms,
you are definitely appreciated by me very much!
FAMILY:
Everybody has been well, and younger sis has completed her secondary school too.
Daddy as usual, gets busy with golf almost everyweek,
and mommy, though busy with work, but have also become a best friend of mine who listens to my complains daily!! :p
LOVE:
I guess there might be a few who are curious, as i do get questioned on why is there no a particular someone..
Well, for those who follow, i guess you know it has been a good two whole years that I didn't have anyone special mentioned in the blog.
In other words, these two years I have been enjoying my singlehood,
and for those who are single or are experiencing breakups,
trust me, being in a singlehood and when you truly understand and feel the singlehood,
it is absolutely not a bad thing, or rather, a GREAT one in fact.
I enjoy the fact that your full focus is directed to somewhere you want it to be without distractions,
and hey, its rewarding!
And catching up with old pals or new friends certainly help to not at the least, make me feel lonely,
though you might bump into many sweet couples around.
I ain't shutting myself up or am being weird, hahaha,
but i guess i shall just leave everything to fate and see how the love life pans out for me.
But well, i really enjoy being in the singlehood to be honest!
CAREER:
It marks the end of university life a week ago, and it feels surreal till date.
I have to start looking for a job and it's kinda a mixed feeling.
A tad of worry at one side, but yet, an excitement on another side.
Will keep you peeps updated if you are interested! :p

The last week of 2010 wasn't exactly a great one,
but it allows me to learn and know who are those that have faith and trust in me,
and I'm sincerely touched and thankful for you angels.
Needless for me to say much, but YOU, believed in me that I have tried my utmost best in those difficult situations.
Ironically, i thought that some understood me well and long enough, and give me as much faith as i give to them..
and I didn't expect emotions and new people they met in their life affect the faith they have that easily..
it's disappointing and sad to know that the emotions overpowered the mind to think logically of the underlying basis/ reasons of why a particular incident happened,
or the emotions overpowered the mind to see what exactly is the issue or who are to be involved/ not involved,
and at the end of the day, the reason for all the happenings was because of others.
Maybe, one should care less for others and be selfish sometimes….. sometimes.
Enough of these sad and mixed emotions,
but let us all welcome 2011 with open arms and new plus great resolutions.
May each and every of you guys to stay happy and may your dreams come true!

i can't wait to introduce this MUST-GO italian restaurant for you to try!
Tucked in the corner of bukit timah road,
you can easily park your car with valet with tips system, or just by the road side along the terrace house.
Been there recently and I love the place!
Ambience was good (but could have been more cosy) and unpretentious,
with authentic italian decorations and furnitures that filled up the whole space.
The restaurant ain't exactly a huge one,
but because of its moderate space, it feels like one big family eating together.
The name of the restaurant is called the ,
and boy, you have to book it at least half a week in advance! (to be safe, one week in adv is better!)
Don't say i didn't warn you,
THEY ONLY TAKE IN RESERVATIONS BTW!
It's more on the higher priced end,
but hey gosh, the quality of the personable service and food definitely make the value worth while.
Kudos to them that they know exactly what to prepare by you just mentioning "oh its my partner's birthday.. or oh, its my partner's anniversary etc".
Trust me, they are that attentive and good.
Love it love it love it!
Did i mention that it is a good place for couple's anniversaries, or birthdays in my opinion?
if you are thinking of going there for valentine's day, PLEASE DO!
But remember to book it early!!
Didn't bring my camera, so here are some pics from the iphone.
The place.
These two are the MUST-HAVE MUST HAVE!!
Bread with cheese oozing out and wrapped with parma ham that is pan fried.
Squid ink pasta in crabmeat sauce.
Guess who we have today for Blogshop Fashion Inspirations?
