Balaclava Girls' Nite Out

We started off by deciding to go to HOOTERS for dinner. HOOTERS. Of all places for a girls' nite out. That would make a good BOYS' chill-out place but why would us girls be interested in staring at the roundness of OTHER girls' butts. Especially those belonging to the hot ones.
So the plan was made void by means of vote.

Then we decided that we should maybe head to The Arena, but for some mysterious reason, that plan did not fall through. Okay part of the mystery is ME. I didn't like the idea very much. No idea why. Maybe it's by some feminine intuition or something. Maybe if i had headed there that night, I might have gotten into some trouble or bumped into an ex i wouldn't want to bump into. Hahas! Okay la im just cooking up excuses.

So anyways, we finally got down to a mutual stand. Balaclava it was. What I liked best; THE MUSSELS!!! OMG they were onion-sauteed and broiled with black pepper sauce. And they were FAT and JUICY and they totally absorbed all its seasoning up. YAY!

If you know me, you'd know i DON'T EVER eat oysters or mussels, clams or cockles. I hate the fishy, bloody taste that stays in my mouth after chewing them. I always thought it's like forcing myself to chew on blobs and pockets of blood. YUCKS. So I actually abstained from the first bowl of mussels that were ordered in Balaclava that night.

I intended for it to stay that way - until Gina kept promoting them like she was gonna earn some commission if i did so much as to take my first bite off a bit of a mussel. Hahahas. She was so persistent in me trying, and i thought it smelt quite good, that i thought... AWWww what the heck, LET ME JUST DO IT!

So i did it, and now i can't stop craving for it.






Yups so all went well, but the night had to end relatively early 'coz I owed someone a draft Letter of Agreement that night. What a bummer.

Cute stuff

Sometimes, random stuff i come across unexpectedly in the course of a busy day can leave me chuckling to myself, and the peeps around me staring on rather bewildered. Here are 3 of those which I've taken the liberty to capture in pictures;-




See, what happened was that my littlest brother Glen, order a bowl of Soupy Yong Tau Foo and forgot to tell the lady he didn't want spring onions in his meal. So one by one, he started picking them out with the tip of his chopsticks, and sticking them on the side of his bowl. As you might guess, this involves a lot of patience and painstaking effort to accomplish. But he did it! All done right in front of me while i was yada-ing to him about my day at work.

How amazing! How CUTE!




"CCTV; VEHICLE UNDER CCTV SURVEILLANCE. IF THIEF OR VANDALISM IS ATTEMPTED. VEHICLE WILL SELF-EXPLODE, KILLING EVERYONE WITHIN A 5 METER RADIUS."

This was a decal found stuck on the windscreen of the cab i was in on the way to one of the departmental lunches. Although I know that 'thief' should have been 'theft', I thought it was uber cute!!!




"The HANDBAG of GLORY; Such was the POWER of the Handbag of Glory that Ladies WEPT when they saw it and those who TOUCHED it went straight to HEAVEN"

This is the BEST OF ALL!!! Hahaha! I love this! I think the words are so so bimbotic yet adorable! I imagine that purple bag on the coaster is just rough sketch of said handbag because it sure isn't gonna make me weep anytime soon. Oh yes please let me experience that kind of joy! :)))

Backtrack; Dating pictures

Dinner on a Friday-Night date out with Ed at the Griller Restaurant.



Get ready for some nauseating narcissistic act-cuteness in the car, Ed was at the wheel so he couldn't stop me from it;


Can you even stand me at all? hAHAs...

The Littlest Elf

If you've watched the movie Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events, you'd have caught the short cartoon that the film begins with.

I think IT IS DA BOMB!!!
Haha... I cannot imagine a more happy and cheery cartoon than this!
I'd forgotten all about it until the movie was recently aired on tv. While the actual plot that moves the story is good, my favourite part of the show would be this pre-movie clip of a mini cartoon of The Littlest Elf which plays at the start of the show, serving as a warning, peppered with humourous irony, to alert the audience to the gloomy plot of the movie; That we should not expect to find anything happy alike The Littiest Elf.

I've managed to find only 1 video clip of it on Youtube. Here it is;





The Littlest Elf

"Bum buttery flit fluttery
Dum diddly-ooh
Bum buttery bluebird is singing a tune
Daffodil dillies awaken and prune
Bursting in bloom
All the flowers assume
It's a loverly, loverly spring

[Littlest Elf funny giggling] :3

Chit-chattery chipmunks all singing along
Humming their join-in-a-spring-along song
Spring is the springiest time for a song
It's a loverly, loverly spring
In the forest we play with the rabbits all day"


Isn't the elf UTTERLY CUTE??? And the animals and the flowers and everything swaying left and right to the song. I love his chuckle and giggle and ESPECIALLY the way he tries to blows the butterfly away from his nose (I made Ed imitate that expression that again and again just because it is so cute). I love the way he was frozen with his smile still plastered on his face yet eyes blinking away like 'What happened??' at the screen when it blacked-out at the end.

But if you realise at 0.38secs into the video, the scene where one of his Elven friends is surrounded by cute animals, swaying and waving to the happy music, you'll see that his Elven friend is actually a hunter! He has a rifle and the full gear! You can also make out part of an animal trap sitting strategically at the bottom-right corner of the screen looking innocent! A random butterfly even lands on it.
Isn't it weird? I mean here is this little guy, strapped with an entire round of bullets across his chest and being all friendly and chummy with the perfect soon-to-be victims which include 2 white lambs, 1 black one, a little deer, a bear whose head was cut of by the screen apparently because of his height, and also a seal. Yes a seal! What is a seal doing in the forest????!
Don't even get me started on why it is blue.
Doesn't make any sense at all! But THAT IS THE CUTENESS OF IT ALL!

I wish the cartoon would just carry on but unfortunately it stops short there. I think it would be an overload of sugar-coated caramel-dressed nauseating cuteness for those with an allergy for cuteness.

I love the lyrics as well!
Especially their adorable made-up phrases!

'Loverly, loverly spring' So CUTE! Lover-ly!

'Spring is the springiest time for a song' What in the world does 'springiest' mean??? Who cares?! It IS CUTE!


I cannot stop singing the song these days.
It plays in my head when I'm at work even!

Somebody save me from this spiral of over-cheerfulness!

Backtrack; Out to town with friends

Don't feel like typing too much about these pictures. Anyways I think however random, they are still self explanatory :)

Pictures taken and collaged months back, but was too lazy to post.
