#nowplaying: Ellie Goulding - Goodness Gracious 

Aloha guys!

Had a really great shopping day with nat, and I feel so broke now especially since my March's pay not in yet :'(
Met her at bugis and as usual I was late, like super late because I had really bad blisters right after I left the house. The cause of this were my new platforms which were a tad too big for me but it's too pretty for me not to buy it.. It was so painful that I rushed straight to Topshop to get the loafers that I had always wanted! Actually I wanted to get the black snakeskin one but there wasn't any at the bugis branch so I had to settle with white. Nonetheless, it's still so pretty and I felt like I was in paradise after the horror of the previous shoes. It was a good buy as topshop were also having a student's sale, 10% off as long as you flash your student pass(yay, glad that I'm still counted as a student!).


Here's my #ootd: (no choice have to take it myself haha)
White spag top and black mesh panel shorts with my new topshop loafers woohoo!



Walked around bugis, and eventually headed over to Somerset for more shopping... :)
Settled at Shokudo at Orchard Cineleisure for dinner! Yumz, I ordered their carbonara spaghetti with poached egg and bacon($12.80). The cream sauce is a little watery though personally I prefer sauce that are more creamy, regardless of which it's still really nice! Nat on the other hand only had the caesar salad with grilled chicken, don't know how she managed to be full with just that(maybe that's why she's so skinny) haha. We also ordered their Matcha Parfait($7.80), been eyeing it ever since we laid our eyes on it and it's so goooood.



So yeah, here's my loots for the day! Black double-strapped bralet and super pretty white rose mesh top from Scape, denim ripped jeans from Blogshopping bugis, silver chunky necklace(which was only $5?!) and round shades from Cotton on. Wanted to buy more stuffs but no we had to control ourselves. It was so funny that we kept pacing back and forth trying to decide whether to get a really pretty top but no end up the shop was closed so we kind of heaved a sigh of relief.


Also, I went to try Santouka Ramen at Central the other day! The picture's not very fantastic but the food's really delicious. I had Cha siew ramen($16.80 if I'm not wrong) in miso soup, and topped up a few more dollars for that awesome egg, I just HAD to get it. Also tried the pork cheek ramen($21 if I remember correctly), so much better than mine, the meat's so freaking tender urgh I wanna eat it now just remembering about it. Go try it out if you have the chance to :)




Currently, I'm in a dilemma over whether to accept the offer or not.. This offer is like the thread of hope in the midst of my "what ifs" and insecurities. Damn why do they start school so early and require an answer from me so quickly?!
Urgh shall just go for the thing and we'll see how.
Bye then!

Foodie

#nowplaying: Parachute - Hurricane

Hey guys!
Felt like I've been eating for the whole day..
Met up early in the morning with py and anna for breakfast at The Coffee Daily near Serangoon Gardens, wanted to visit this place for so long and glad that we finally did. The place's really cosy and chill, perfect for some hanging out with friends :)
I had their Salmon ciabatta with scrambled eggs and Matcha Latte for $18.50 which wasn't exactly cheap in my opinion, but the food's great! The scrambled eggs were soft and fluffy, topped with salmon which was a perfect combination, mmhmm. 






Once we saw the rainbow cake displayed on the table, we knew that we had to try this much raved about Rainbow cake($10)! The cake's pretty big and we shared it, just good as a sweet treat after the meal. 


Of course that wasn't all, we tried their new creation as well, the brownie with salted caramel($6.50). Chocolate's not my favourite so I didn't liked it that much but the cake's really soft and tasted good nonetheless. 

After this, anna went for work while we went to meet up with ju. Headed over to Johor Bahru, the customs were so crowded since it was a weekend! Shopped around City Square Mall and went over to the new shopping center Galleria, but was really disappointed since not much shops were open for business yet. Took a cab down to Jusco at Bukit Indah, we were shocked by the size of the mall. It was so huge but there wasn't actually much interesting shops inside, mostly food and the departmental store. Felt fulfilled because I finally bought insoles for my really loose but pretty shoes, and they work like magic woohoo! Anyway, we took a cab(which we were seriously over-charged for) to Taman Sentosa for the delicious crab and some bbq food nomz. 



It was so filling and now I'm feeling like a bloated pufferfish haha should really go exercising soon..

Till then,
xoxo.
