• Experiencing The Sydney Tower Eye & Sky Walk (Sydney’s tallest building)

    I have a lot more about sydney to post about, so bear with me! I’m only stuck at the 3rd day for now, so there are 7 more days’ worth of blog entries coming and I hope I could pen down all the wonderful memories that i have had. It was really a lovely trip, especially sans kids and doing all the exciting activities and fun things in sydney, together with friends. mainly touristy things, because i am after all, a tourist! For some weird reason, I kept craving for vietnamese pho the moment I arrived in sydney and I was so excited when I came across one shop selling…

  • Sydney Fish Market - a must-visit when visiting Sydney!

    Sydney Fish Market where fresh seafood resides!

    This post is about Sydney Fish Market, a place where I visited during my vacation to Sydney with my gf and without the kids. i’m still missing the fun i had on my trip and am seriously experiencing a bad case of post holiday blues. it pains me to view the pictures because… i just want to head back there and chill. the place is just so chill and laid back. anyhow, what’s a trip to sydney without checking out the Sydney’s Fish Market right? it’s a stone throw away from darling harbour and we simply walked over after soaking in the sights at the harbour. checking out the map of…

    Visiting Sydney – Our arrival!

    We arrived in sydney this morning! We are pretty hyped about visiting Sydney but we both were pretty much like zombies upon arrival because instead of sleeping on the flight (which in itself was tough), we watched movies, had supper, chatted non stop and i read on my kindle (ah, bliss!) and ended up catching only 1.5hrs of sleep. or less. when we finally landed, we took a while to orientate ourselves, get our data sim (Optus offers unlimited data, voice calls and smses for just $2/day), and hopped onto a train to andy’s apartment. that’s us waiting for a train in central station, by the way. the trains are very…

  • the hubby’s birthday.

    I didn’t plan anything special. at all. I didnt even buy a present. ha! I am such a terrible wife right?   the husb warned me beforehand that he doesn’t want any surprises that requires me to splurge. no fancy cake, no meals that would cost hundreds and all. so I guess not that bad afterall by his expectations.   he also decided to work on his birthday (Mon) so there was really not much time for me to plan  anything.   the weekend before, we popped over to expo furniture sale to check out the furnitures for fun, since we’ll be getting our home soon and had lunch at…

  • Happy lunches.

    I seemed to forgot how much happy lunches revive my soul.. And now that i think about it, i guess thats part of the reason why i feel like wanting out these days – i didnt get enough time out that puts me right back to fighting hard. I just feel tired, sore, angsty and demoralised. Which brings the point that food really cheers me up! I guess i miss working with jen because we are both are lovers of good food. Eating mundane predictable food satisfies my hunger but nice good food satisfies my soul and spirit. I had a happy lunch yesterday. It was jared post birthday treat…

  • More lunch pictures.

    I cannot decide if the iPhone is a good thing because I have taken to taking a lot of pictures on the iPhone and I am quite lazy to blog from the iPhone because my typing ain’t as fast compared to a keyboard, plus the fact that I get a lot of typos and the phone changing my original word to another that it thinks is right. Tad frustrating. And loading the pictures to flickr from the iPhone is another pain in the ass. Bloody slow! Took me near an hour to load 23 pictures of last night dinner. and yup. So I have a lot of backlogs and mostly…

  • More food pictures.

    It’s doesn’t take much to know that I haven’t been losing any weight at all. On the contrary, I think I have been eating loads lately to cope depressing moments. Afterall, food is the best way to cheer me up. Am meeting Agnes for brekkie tomorrow before heading to work. I must be mad since I’m not a morning person and struggle to wake every morning. But still, I see it as an adventure! Looking forward to tomorrow. Am loving my lunches this week as well because with the car, I don’t have to eat depressing food anymore! Lunch with Andy zai on Monday. Brought him to the shloop cafe…

  • Pasta again.

    Had pasta for lunch again yesterday!! This time from Hans near my office (trinity christian church). Lovely lunch with jasmine, I miss doing all these happy lunches! Hmm. What’s for lunch today? Having a 2pm meeting = light lunch because a heavy one will make me feel lethargic. Am hungry already! Posted via LiveJournal.app.
