it was indeed a lovely weekend with dearest.
we went to telok blangah for roti prata (and also shared duck noodles! fatty!) and then to queensway for SHOPPING!
and guess what i bought? 99.9% on impulse:

oakley sunglasses!
i’ve never been generous enough with myself to own a pair of sunglasses.
each time i give myself excuses. first i say that i will buy a pair when i pass my driving test.
then when i really passed, i say i will buy when i buy a car.
now that i dun intend to buy a car in the near future, i dun need to buy sunglasses anymore (save money!)
then at first i thought when i do my lasik, i’ll need a pair of sunglasses. but my first thought was to borrow from friends.
then i happily read from dr lee’s website that they will provide special sunglasses. but when i went for the consultation, they didn’t mention that it will be provided.
so… i needed to buy one for myself.
had always wanted a gucci one, and NEVER thought i will ever buy oakley.
strangely, kinda fell in love with this one when i tried it on.
so despite the fact that oakley prices are controlled (means no discount even if bought in queensway), i bought it without any hesitation.
damage: $350.
and to join in the fun, dearest got a pair of ray ban as well! wahaha…
he was finding it difficult to decide between 2 colours, and in the end chose e one which looks FIERCE! haha…
it’s special – full black, and the frame is matt! really COOL!
then we went to orchard and roamed around aimlessly… until we thought of a ‘brilliant’ place to go to!
night safari! woohoo!
both dearest and i have never been there before. i knew dearest didn’t like the zoo much… so i was really worried that he will find the night safari boring.
to both our surprise, night safari turned out to be fun!
well, it was something new for us. we took the 45 min tram ride and then joined the queue to watch the oh-my-god hilarious animal show.
then we went to see all sorts of animals, by foot. it was really dark and a little scary… but it was interesting seeing all the different animals, and esp get to see the majestic ones like tiger and leopard up close.
there was this pack of wolves, just standing around on top of a cliff… and then we left them after a short while. and they started howling! i forced dearest to run back to see them in action. it was… impressive! they just kept howling and howling non-stop. pretty eerie too.
and now to check out our pretty and handsome faces! *puke*


we were on the tram, getting ready to start the journey. i feel like a little girl again… anticipating wat’s to come.

this was taken at the z’bar… just for fun… know what it signifies?
once upon a time, my mum called me a zebra. because i spend too much money buy useless things.
“黑白马” in hokkien means “anyhow buy”. hehe… my witty mum.
dearest remembers it, so he made me take a pic on the zebra chair.

oh look what we found! an enclosure for dearest!
豪猪 = haw choo
wahahaha… somemore indian one… haaa…
basically we enjoyed ourselves very much. just that the next time we go, we will make sure we are in shorts and slippers, and have our dinner first! we were starving halfway through the walk! by the time we left it was after 11pm and we rushed to chomp chomp to have a quick dinner.
and today (sunday), we met sheena and jackson for lunch at oasis! it’s been more than a week since we met them. sheena was recovering from a bad flu, and although she did look tired, she has slimmed down and looks prettier!
after lunch dearest and i went to parkway.
to be a zebra again.
we bought:
- a slow cooker $57 (thanks dear)
- a dvd player $159
- a hdmi cable $50
- lots of tonics $100 (dearest bought sooo much for me… because he says he wants me to build a stronger health… at any price… sweet right)
and sometime next week, i will be making hasima for dearest! hope it turns out fine…
it’s a wonderful week. i’m sure everyday will be as happy as this weekend!

yup. nite safari is fun! I enjoyed it too! but went too late so din get to visit everythg…
