happier times...

been told my entries are getting emo recently. Actually i dun really think so, cos i haven't really unleash the full emotions. maybe i'm just wanting to be a coward now and avoid it. maybe i'm thinking, if they dun care, why should i always be the one caring? maybe i really dun want to feel angry and sad but pride holds me back, maybe i wanna give in again but i think, why should i cheapen my own emotions and sweep everything under the carpet and pretend that everything's alright? maybe just this once, i just feel like sticking to my own guns, as much discomfort it is giving me cos i'm so used to saying sorry and giving in first. Maybe i just want to account to myself just this once.

Actually why so many maybes? Even if i think to death about the topic, there isn't any point. It's just this way sometimes. nobody's really at fault anyway cos we all have our own opinions about the way things have happened. And humans being selfish humans, are most, scratch that, all the time just too preoccupied with their own problems and forgetting that others have their problems as well. Oh of course being in my profession i shun be saying that, but then, social workers are human too.

It's probably more time-conducive to think about how i can make myself happier, so here goes... long overdue cartload of pix over the past month.


FOOOOODDD.... i been in a pasta craze and had lurvely friends who brought me to great pasta places....
At Delight and Delicious, sharon's bf is co-owner of this kopitiam stall that's slowly gaining popularity (been featured in a paper!!). Hidden away in a kopitiam at Tiong Bahru.. Abundant amount of seafood with my pasta--credits to sharon's presence hahaha..


seafood pasta at BakerzInn.. Virgin try there with ZT.. very very good.. the sauce lingers long after i cleaned the plate.


Comforting hot chocolate. ZT's... love the dish and artfully arranged marshmallows with dusting of chocolate powder.


Adorable desserts served tapas-style..


Warm classic choc cake with orgasmic hot chocolate sauce flowing from within... served with vanilla ice-cream interestingly shaped like a leaf..


at the only outlet of Kim Gary's in Spore.. at Vivo City.. Huge servings of Hong Kong delights for extremely reasonable prices.


at a Shanghai cafe.. beautifully arranged cereal prawns.. a tad too oily for my liking though.


SUPER big xiao long bao!! Gotta drink the tasty soup with a straw.. i never get tired of my xiao long baos... comfort food.


Fondue'ed strawberries at The Line @ Shangrila. Ma family's fave buffet place.


a sweet home-baked chocolate muffin from a nice colleague.

an unplanned-for fuschia day in the office..


the puppy got neutered and his recovery process was a period of torment for us.. haveta cope with his moodiness, swollen eyes and pain when we applied his medicine.. Almost felt bad for sending him for the op, but it's necessary for his good health in future..


Interesting collage done by a group of kids at a forum i haveta attend..
