Good job darling! =D

No, of course he didn't propose.

But yes, he really gave me a surprise.

1 year odd of being together, this is the first official time that he gave me a surprise. Well, to surprise me, it ain't easy. Firstly, the gifts that I'd love to have are usually pricey, and there are a 101 things that I want to get. So, if he were to surprise me with gifts, it's near to impossible. =)

So, he surprised me with food.

I used to think that I'm very low maintenance when it comes to food. It's like I can eat at MacDonald's everyday, or even a simple meal of chicken rice for every meal. But now, I can say that, I'm no longer low maintenance.

Well, Jeremy Lee, you have yourself to blame. Now you have to feed me expensive stuff on top of buying expensive stuff for me. =p

Ever since I've gotten together with Jem, I feel that I can no longer eat food like how I used to. Of course I still love my MacDonald and chicken rice, but I will yearn to opt for the best I can get - taste and quality.

For example, I used to detest beef. I wouldn't go into any restaurant that has that beefy stench. But now, I'm beginning to love it, and I cannot go to places that serve bad quality beef.

There was once, darling and I went to this restaurant/cafe place at Serangoon Gardens for lunch with his AG. Thankfully, I ordered the pork chops. Baby's steak was BAD. It didn't have the natural taste of beef that it should have - it tasted bland. We will NEVER go back to that place for steak again, the rest were okay, not too bad.

I think my taste buds are slowly developing. No doubt I obviously still do not know the difference between the grades of steak cuts, I definitely can taste what's awesome and what's really shit.

Anyway, now it's time to reveal where he brought me to. This sneaky child tricked me a few times.

Jem: Oh, I just checked, CTE's traffic is quite jam, we shall go via Thomson.
Me (thinking): "Oh, we're going to Orchard?"

But we didn't go onto Thomson. We ended up on Lornie Road. So I thought, maybe he was bringing me to Dempsey, via Holland Road.

But we passed Holland Road.

Me: Oh! We're going towards Vivo that side!
Jem: Maybe?
Me: Are we going to Mt Faber?
Jem: Don't know?
Me: We are going to Mt Faber! =D

But we passed Mt Faber.

Me: Ooooooh, we're going to Prive?
Jem: Maybe? Dont know?

But we passed Keppel Bay.

Me: We're going to Vivo for dinner? What is there to eat there? Don't think that there's anything nice there.
Jem: Oh no, how ah?
Me: No choice I guess.

But we passed Vivocity.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR..............

Me: (Seeing that we are turning into Sentosa) We're going to Sentosa?!?!?!
Jem: HAHA YEAH...
Me: OMG! One Degree 15?
Jem: No la! You bring me there next time.
Me: Yeah, when I propose to you - basically NEVER.

So, he brought me to this alfresco setting restaurant in Sentosa called "Suburbia".

They were having a 1-for-1 deal at $68++ for:

Appetizer
Seared Tuna

Soup of the day
Onion Soup

Main Course
Salmon or Wagyu Beef Rump Steak

Dessert
Strawberry Mousse Cake

We both had the beef, as it was the smarter thing to choose.

My comments:
Appetizer - wasn't as good as it should be, but it's a pass. 3/5
Soup - it was very well done, but I can taste more of the chicken stock than onion. 3.5/5
Main course - darling said that it's definitely not a grade 8, but it's flavour to me is nice. 3.5/5
Dessert - I'm not much of a dessert person, but it's done well. 3.5/5

Well, I would go back again, if the 1-for-1 deal is still on. Pricing is really good. =D

Thank you darling for making the effort to surprise me, I really appreciate it. =) I'll be waiting for the next surprise! LOVE YOU!

Today is finally here...

Finally, the day has come.

The surprise is today. I wonder what's gonna happen. I wonder what he is up to?

My mom asked me where I'm going for dinner tonight, I said I don't know, ask her to find out from Jeremy cos he said it's a surprise.

Mom: You both going out for dinner tonight ah?
Jem: Yeah
Mom: It's a surprise ah?
Jem: Haha! Yeah...
Me: MOM?!?!?!?!?! YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO ASK!
Jem: Hahahahaha!!
Mom: Oh, where are you both going?
Jem: I'll let you know when we come back.
Me: ...

ARGH...

Conclusion: My mom is bad at asking questions.

Well, he's making tonight's dinner so suspicious. It's not my birthday, and it's not because of another issue that we are celebrating. Nor is it a proposal. What can it be? Nor is there any occasion.

Jem: I just want to do something sweet for you.

Awwww, I think I better charge my camera. But then again, I think I'll just use my iPhone.

Random: iPhone ROCKS!

I need to know...

AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

I can't take it anymore!!!!

I need to know... I really need to know!

What the hell is gonna happen on Friday? What's with this Friday? Why is it a surprise? There's usually no surprise. 1 year and there's not been a single surprise.

This is getting fishy. I really want to know. DAMN. Tough nut to crack. He said he booked a table. But I have no idea where! I don't think he's proposing (as much as I hope he is, but I'd rather wait for my 1 carat ring). That what could it be? I asked him what's the occasion? He said, "Surprise!".

Me: Where are we going?
Jem: Surprise!
Me: What's for dinner?
Jem: Surprise!
Me: What cuisine?
Jem: Surprise!
Me: Which area?
Jem: Surprise!
Me: Are you proposing?
Jem: NO.

Crap. Why can't he say surprise too? Hahaha.

WHAT IS HE UP TO?!

As much as I love surprises, this is killing me! Hahahaha. I think I'm gonna die of laughter. AND curiosity. Ahhhhh curiosity killed the cat.

MEoooowww.

...

Silence.

belllll smellllll fellllllll?

Jingle bell, batman smell, robin lay an egg. Jeremy Lee is very good, so he shall be my slave!

This song has been going on and on and on in my head for the past 2 hours. Hahaha!

It's only the 23rd of November and I am filled with Christmas (my head). At times I'll hum christmas carols and I think my colleagues think that I'm mad.

Christmas is coming! And it is my most anticipated time of the year. I love the months from December to February. I have something to look forward to every month for those 3 months.

YOOHOOOO...

On a sidenote, OMG! A 1.02 carat F VVS2 costs 30 grand? You gotta be kidding me!

Long Forgotten

WOOHOOO!

The writer of this long forgotten blog is back! (for awhile.. I might forget I have a blog again..)

Anyway, nowadays I don't really know what to write. Jem said that I like to tell stuff to the "world" and sometimes it ain't that good - there's no privacy. But this is how I communicate to my friends, whom I hardly meet, for them to KPO in my life! Well, that is assuming they still read my blog. I don't even know who reads my blog nowadays.

As I've said, it's long forgotten.

ANYWAYS, I can't be bothered what to hide and what not. So I'm gonna blurt it out! This instance!!!!!

I....

Well, as for where I'm going, you'll see when I'm back (if I EVERY post any photos on this blog.. too lazy to..)

Alright, going off now!

HI!

It's 1.43am and I'm still awake.

Gosh, it feels so good that I don't have to work tomorrow. (to Jem: ne ne ni bu bu... =p)

Today, darling and I went to AMK Central for dinner. Had his FAVOURITE hokkien mee (again) and a bowl of bah chor mee. We're He's a glutton, I know. =D

After which, we went walking around the heartland area and I went to THREE abc stores - you know, those kinds that sell household stuff etc for $1 - $2? It's been since God knows when I started loving to go to these kinda store. And yes, I spent quite abit. Don't want to take photos of my loot, because it'll reflect how auntie I am. =p

Went for supper 3 hours later with Tong and Kimchi (eat again). We had wanton mee, beef noodles and 1 peanut pancake @ Lavender Food Square. The pancake took probably 10 mins worth of my time and IT WASN'T GOOD. HMPH! *sulk* Enough said.

Darling is sleeping soundly now by my side. I was blowing my hair, watching TV and now typing loudly but he can't hear a thing. I guess he's TOO tired. And the best time to sleep is .... but of course after you eat. HAHA! WHAT A PIG!

Wanted to take a photo of him while he sleeps, but when I was about to take the shot, he moved. DAMN IT! Forget it, not meant to be. Plus I think he will kill me and cut 0.5 away from my 1 carat ring. HAHAHAHAHAHA! *sulk*

Awwwwwwwwwwww.. Seeing the way he sleeps, like pooh bear. Love him deep deep!

Soonish, I will fly home.

Woah!

I just read and found out that the last time I posted on this blog was almost a month ago! Opps!

Sorry for disappearing for so long, I sorta forgotten that I have this blog (twitter too! oops..). I remembered I told myself when I start working, I'll still blog daily. However, I have absolutely no idea why I've slowed down on my blogging.

I think Jem stopped visiting my blog as well. =p

Anyway, updates! I recently went to Phuket (and back) and to this kelong off JB. Phuket was absolutely fun! But the Kelong was so-so, I even got burnt from the kelong. (What's new?)

Now its 4.37pm and I'm counting down to knock off. Please come sooooon!
