Blogs

It's time to reveal something about this website,
which I believe you might have already noticed,
or maybe you have not yet.

Changing to a new domain and a new blogging platform can be kinda complicated,
especially when I am absolutely familiar with blogging at livejournal for the past 4 years.

But its equally exciting when you know you have a new blog awaiting for you,
coupled with brand new customized designs and functions,
and getting used to writing at a new platform is just a matter of time, I'm sure.

And ain't it more rewarding that you will finally have a domain, a space of your own,
with whatever customization you wanna have to better fits your bloggin style and needs totally..
So one of my wishes was fulfilled and I am indeed thankful because..

this website is specially sponsored by wemeanIT.sg!

I was really thrilled about this when the IT guys first approached me at the start of year.
We have been working together since then,
from them understanding what are my blogging needs,
to personalizing solutions and suggestions for this brand new portal.

In fact, knowing that I have a lot of pictures in each entry,
I like the overall simplicity of the layout,
and not overloaded with too many things that will take the attention of the entries away.

And WAIT, it doesn't just stop here..
here're some stuff you might not notice as of yet and I am here to share them!

1. TAGS

And basically, my entries evolve around these main categories as for now.

The left side with the checkered boxes is actually shown inside my blogging account,
and these categories are in fact, all customizable to what you need,
in which you can name it whatever you want it to be too.

 
2. SIDE HEADERS

I know you probably know the first post is always the advertorials,
and from second post onwards, it's the blog (personal) post.

If you notice carefully, they are better defined with the side headers too,
and I love how the word fonts look at the side of the entry box.

3. ADVERTORIALS

Keeping to my old livejournal blogging style,
wemeanIT.sg actually customised this advertorial aspect for my domain,
and the best part is that, they provided me with really great suggestion,
which better enhanced the advertorials for you guys!

Check them out and you can see the effect of the movement of pictures,
definitely looking more professional than before.

4. PORTFOLIO (PHOTOGALLERY)

It is actually the same as photogallery,
but i named it portfolio as it will be more on lil bits and pieces of my past experiences instead.

Being a person who loves to carry her camera around,
I bet you wouldn't know how many pictures,
or how much space my peeks occupy in my laptop/harddisc.

So similar to facebook,
there's a photogallery that can immediately bring you to view the pictures by entry/occasion!

Additionally, I love this part about it. (See Below)

You can simply just click on any picture,
and it will enlarge with a next button to view the other pictures too.

This is not the only effect of a photoalbum,
wemeanit.sg has a lot more choices for you to choose in terms of how you want your pictures to appear,
transit etc.
 

5. DATE, LIKES, COMMENTS, SIGNATURE, ICON@TAB

I guess you are already familiar with these,
and woohoo, I like the font and the way they look.
It's one of the customization function that wemeanit.sg did for me too.

And guess what?!

I literally sign this on a piece of paper (not computer generated!!!),
and the IT guys actually helped to scan it into the computer.
They programmed it in a way that whenever a new entry is blogged,
it will auto appear at the bottom.
Teehee, coolios.

And if you look carefully again at your tab,
you can see the "b".

They did this as well, knowing that b represents the start of my name,
and making it seems more personalized. Woohoo!

6. COMMENTS

Just like the other blogging platform,
the way the comments are approved and replied are as simple as before.

To be frank, I think the commenting system is better here!
Whenever i get a notification, I can choose to reply at the entry,
or just logged into my account and reply from there.
Easy peasy.

7. TWITTER

I love love this placement of twitter,
the bird icon and the colours of it that fit the whole blog's feel.

Kudos to wemeanit.sg,
they made the twitter icon and tweets appearance very professional here!

The best thing about getting your own domain be it for personal or business,
Just two words- Customize and Control.
You can completely customize your online portal to your liking and your total needs,
and by having a whole space which you can personally have control over, without restrictions.

From work-related partners to friends,
I can say Wemeanit.sg definitely takes pride in their work and ensures that you get what you want.

Just like the name sounds,
they mean every single step that they do for you.
I felt awfully bad that i rang them up at random times,
or having them taking time out of their busy schedules to fit mine,
and thankful for these people that answer to each and my every enquiry,
providing personable service to me at the same time.

It's time to move…. for the better!  (yes, i've moved!)
It's your turn now.

I am sure one of our favourite hotlines for delivery very frequently,
would be none other than Pizza Hut.
Trust me, you’re gonna feel hungry after reading,
and I bet you will be as eager as I am to try it the next moment after I first saw “it”.
Well, what I am gonna show you is the talk of the town now!

I’m quite sure that with the absolute convenient 62353535 hotline,
we seldom dine in at Pizza Hut.
But guess what, I went for a lunch there last week,
other than the usual pizzas and spicy drumlets which are a must have there.
I was pretty amazed to find out that there were so much more choices on their menu!

I am always a fan of Italian cuisines,
and I bet a lot of you, being the same as me,
will be going around Singapore sourcing for good pizzas and pastas etc.
And well, just as you thought that Pizza Hut is only known for its pizzas
and spicy drumlets (gosh yes, I love this!!!),
you are missing out the full spectrum of pastas, pizzas, salads, and the list goes on,
but well, you are totally missing out the latest on their Menu.

And there you go….

Parchment Pasta (Char-grilled Chicken), SGD 11.90

 one of the latest creations by Pizza Hut.

I thought it looks real good even from the outside,
with the piping hot pasta wrapped neatly in the parchment paper.

Interesting and full of anticipation at the same time,
I can’t wait to unwrap it and get a taste of it!

Woooo, pasta perfetto~

Unwrapping it gently and slowly….

Poof! Looking at this,
I can totally remember the distinctive creamy aroma that welcomed me after opening it.
Just like myself, you are greeted with the carefully cooked char-grilled chicken pasta,
topped with generous fillings of mushrooms, sliced tender grilled chicken, red capsicum,
all accompanied with an absolutely smooth and tasty cream sauce.

Love this one because I am a HUGE FAN of cream pasta!
I know a couple of friends prefer non-cream pasta
 because they feel that the whole bowl cream sauce is too much for them to take.
I do admit I face that same kinda problem even though creamy pasta
is always my top choice whenever I order pastas,
but I do feel jelat (sick) on the taste bud after eating near half of it.

As true as it is,
 a couple of us shared the same sentiments,
and agreed that the char-grilled chicken parchment pasta is cooked in a mild-cream sauce.
certainly a just-right but not too much taste for us cream-pasta lovers!
I am quite particular about the texture of the pasta,
and hate it when its overcooked.
Maybe you think it sounds too good to be true,
but the pasta texture of this was superb, and “al dente” is the word.
Did I mention they are not stingy with the pasta portion too?

Satisfied US!

Like what I have mentioned, many of my friends prefer non creamy pasta,
and of course, Pizza Hut will not leave out the non creamy pasta lovers!

Parchment Pasta (Spicy Seafood), SGD 12.90.

What can I say more?
Spot the huge juicy prawns, muscles and squids tossed in an excessive tomato spicy sauce,
and the aroma of this upon opening is just as welcoming as the creamy one.
I thought that the sauce was brilliant,
and the fresh seafood ingredients are immersed in the sauce,
making them exceptionally satisfying and tasty at the same time.

Though I’m a cream fan, but I am a SPICE FAN too!
I am glad that they go all out with the spice,
not too hot that is tongue burning, but a great pleasure for spice-lovers yo!

I would really suggest that you guys try both flavours,
go with a group or order one each of different flavours with your partners,
you have to gotta at least try it once.

and you will be…..swoon. 

A hungry woman is an angry woman.
Look at how smiley we are, gee.

Food choices do not stop here,
with so many new choices they have in their menu,
we got ourselves more food to enjoy.

A new addition too, the Seafood Tofu Salad, SGD 6.90 for a generous serving.

Tossed together with a good mixture or the bouncy delicious sweet tofu,
and I like the crispy noodles that came with it as well.
Pour in their tangy sweet and sour sauce, purrrfect!

Next up is one of my cravings (for now!! And its 1AM in the morning).

The Juicy and tender riblets, SGD 5.80 for 4 HUGE servings.
Calling out to chicken meat lovers,
since all of us are swoon by Pizza Hut’s spicy drumlets,
I am sure you know this is just as good.
The drumlets are huge, and accompanied by a layer of crispy marinated skin,
not too thick and not too thin,
just the right amount of batter for you to enjoy the juicy tender meat of the wings.
It tasted a bit like the prawn paste chicken (love it!) and smells good too,
You will love it.

Emerald Sparkle Cooler, SGD 3.80
My refeshing apple soda with apple bits to quench my thirst.

Turkey Bacon Carbonara, $8.90

Take pleasure in the satiny smooth taste of linguine doused with cheesy cream sauce accompanied by baked turkey bacon and fresh button mushrooms
Not one of the latest creations, but is known to be a hot favourite of many dining in!

Pep ‘N’ Spice Pasta, $6.20

 Fiery black pepper chicken, savoury shiitake mushrooms and spaghetti tossed with coarse black pepper and roasted garlic for a little bit of punch in every bite

Similar to Aglio Olio, but  this has a rich taste of pepper and sprinkled with chicken chunks.
Just the same, love the way they cooked the pasta,
the texture is just awesome.

of course, most girls always have space for desserts,
that’s true.

Banana chocolate Mousse Cake (A tale of 2 Temptations)

Cheese-brownie cake. (A tale of 2 Temptations)



A tale of two temptations, served together at just SGD 5.50,
you get to enjoy the best of both worlds.
Strong rich taste that  will never fail you, dessert lovers. J

And here comes the best part,
just as you thought desserts at desserts

Their Warm Chocolate Cake With Ice Cream, SGD 6.50.

 

I swear it’s a MUST-TRY!
Once you have a mouthful, you can’t stop.
It’s an absolute favourite of each and everyone of us,
and I actually think it’s a good idea to just dine in for tea time
to enjoy a piece of this warm chocolate cake, sipping on to a cup of hot tea.
Perfect.

It’s time to get your stomach filled with good food!

The August babies got together on a friday night to have a simple celebration at CMPB @ Dempsey.
When the guys were first told about the venue,
it was pretty shocking for them because they thought of the government CMPB than the bar and restaurant one. :p

I would think CMPB @ Dempsey is a good place for chill outs,
drinks over pizzas, fries/chips (the chips with mash is a must-have).
And if you dont mind feeling a tad warm,
the outside seats are better, I feel.

Both waffle and brownie that were awfully delicious.

The August babies

Duck pizza with loads of mushrooms.
I thought the wyagu beef pizza there was better.

Mushroom creamy pasta.

The outside seating area.

Sake Mojito, the girls' drinks.

I'm super loving the black/white blazer manufactured by Haute Hangers.
Love every single bits of this jacket,
from the slightly structured puff shoulder design, to the cool lil gold bow pin.

The group shot.

What's better than just pulling over a shirt dress in a cool dusty pink shade for the weekends,
makes moving around exceptionally comfortable, and not looking too casual at the same time.
Me like!

Rise and Shine.
Hotel checked out was 11am, and weather wasn't at all the best on a Sunday morning.
It was raining heavily a couple of hours before dawn,
and it was drizzling in the morning.
Together with Mummykins, we took a walk at the sky garden before we bid goodbye to the place,
and we were literally freezing with the cold breeze.

A bright turquoise dress by Pearlavish for the Sunday morning,
a colour that immediately brightens up the rest of your day.
Simple, with a bit of ruffles, and easy without much accessories, me like!

Lunch at TAK PO @ Chinatown was superb,
great dim sum, if you haven tried it.

Had a bit of rest at home before we set off in the late afternoon for my cousin's baby shower.
Look at the cute lil Raynise and I thought the headband was super cool.

Peekas for the afternoon.

My next favourite bandaged skirt by Pearlavish once again, (thank you!)
Love this skirt because it's extremely versatile and would spice up the outfit with just a simple top.
Will get more if there are more colours available!

And the details are kinda unique.

Daddykins and Raynise.

Awww.

Mummygranny and that's her brother, Raygen.

Vel's Mobster Birthday party at Marina Bay Sands (MBS) in this huge suite
the day before yesterday was totally AWESOME!

The theme was Mafias (in Chanel),
and it was absolutely amazing to see everyone go all out to dress up for the theme,
looking real stunning and different.
I am awaiting for the peeks and will blog again!

* * *

Speaking about MBS, after leaving in wee hours after the party on Friday night,
Im back to MBS yesterday for a stayover with my family,

Walked around this new hotel and had a great dinner at Imperial Treasure,
and I love it.
Everything here is clean (i hope they will maintain it as it goes by) and posh.
You feel like you are overseas here, geez.

Pictures of the night!

Reached MBS in my structured white denim dress specially designed by Megagamie,
the cutting fits well and the material is a lil stretchy, really comfortable moving around.
Checked into the room and its more spacious as I thought it would be for a 2-pax room!

The check in time was only 3pm, pretty late as compared to normal hotels though.

Exiting the lift at 57th storey

Greeted by beds and a huge pool with a splendid view.

The view from Sky Garden, magnificent.

Back to the room to change to my dinner dress!

Specially by Megagamie too, and its a perfect dress, came in time for a good dinner with the family,
the smooth material and the flare skirt bottom are two highlights of this exclusive manufactured dress by them,
took quite a while to choose my favourite colour outta the choices!
