14.01.2013 rest, relax and recharge day

Fashionably yours is on leave today.  Have lots of annual leave which are carried forward from last year balance annual leave.  We need to clear it by 31.3.2013, as per my company policy.  Will be clearing my annual leave on and off. I need to take leave to prepare for CNY too.  It is good to take leave to rest, relax and recharge. 

Well, what did fashionably yours do on my off day today.  I blog, read the newspaper, eat, sleep, watch TV, shoppings and went to Ikea to buy dining chairs' cushions and tealight candles this afternoon. It was not crowded at Ikea so was such a breeze making payment and I don't have to fight for oxygen with the crowds during weekends.  I hate crowded places so generally I will take annual leave to go shoppings or go outings during peak hours/weekdays while most of the people are working.  Of course you need to have alot of annual leaves to clear or take in order to go outings during office hours/weekdays. 

I was craving to eat dry mee pok fishball for lunch but that stall was closed.  Thus I ate century egg with minced pork porridge which is also very yummy. Ate till so full.

Glad I reached home sweet home before the heavy downpour this afternoon from Ikea.  I love this nice and cooling weather after the rain.  While watching the rain, fashionably yours ate Kettle brand Potato chips Honey Dijon.  It is so yummy.  Highyl recommended.  It can be purchased from Cold Storage or NTUC Fairprice at SGD4.95 each.

Yummy Honey Dijon
 

Also went to the medical hall nearby my house to buy this Red Sun Takara to detox.  Not sure if it is effective though.

Just watched MBS laser light show from the comfort of my house.  It makes me a happy girl.  Also fashionably yours enjoy watching this group of people playing sepak takraw downstairs my hosue at the court.  They play almost every night.

 

Wishing everyone a nice week ahead and thanks for supporting my blog.

 

Cheers

 

 

 

Dinner at Marina Bay Sands - Beanstro

Initially a few of us want to dine at Ku De Ta on Monday night but was fully booked. We had to walk around the mall at MBS to look for restaurants and most are fully booked too. In the end, some of the friends went to eat at the food court at MBS. However bestie and I went to dine at Beanstro, a cafe by the Coffee Bean and Tea. It was the only place that we can find that still has seats for us at about 8pm dinner. Bravo :))


We quickly ordered our food as we were famished from all the walkings at MBS. We had the Christmas special - Roast Lamb Leg which fashionably yours find it abit cold but still ok. We also had their Christmas cakes - Linzer and Florentine fruit cake. I like the Linzer cake because it has my favourite strawberry on top of the cake. I love to eat cakes. We drank the swedish berries tea which according to the waitress is their best selling tea.
Shortly after we had our dinner, our two girlfriends - KJ-san and SY-san joined us for drinks here while we chit chat the night away before we head home sweet home.

Marina Bay Sands - 27 Dec 2010

Fashionably yours was at Marina Bay Sands on Monday. Met up with bestie and friends to go to MBS. I enjoyed myself at the skypark. I was like a little girl jumping up and down so excited at the skypark, taking lots of pictures. The view is spectacular from the skypark. Very cooling. Love it there.


The skypark is at 57 floor. We wanted to dine at Ku De Ta but was fully booked, so disappointed. I will be back to dine and/or club at Ku De Ta someday.


After the skypark, we walked around the shoping malls to look for restaurant for dinner. Most restaurants were fully booked. Finally bestie and I found Beanstro which has seat for us (will blog in another post).

There is an ice skating rink at mbs besides the casino. Alot of luxury shops and saw the small river for gondola inside the mall. The mall is pretty quiet and I wonder how these retailers are going to survive.


If you have an afternonn to whirl time away, you can go to shopping mall at MBS to shop. It is advisable to make reservations at the restaurants. The food there mostly are exorbitant priced, so be prepared to pay for expensive foods.


Fashionably yours is a member of MBS now which I applied at the concierge. Membership can earn points and get discounts for some entertainments at MBS.
