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.

I like the strawberry pudding, which tasted sweet.  I find the ceasar salad and spaghetti is so so only.  Not that fantastic.  However the calamari and bacon on melon are simply heaven.  It is a nice place to chill out and I might go back again to try out their pizza.  I feel that the spaghetti which my babyface cooked is much nicer than theirs.  Other than that, good service and friendly staff.

Last but not least, wishing my colleague all the best :)

Pedicure, Hair Salon, Lunch, Shoppings and very leisure week

Gonna take things slow today.  It is a very hot Thirstday afternoon so fashionably yours rest and relax to chill out amidst my lush greenery surroundings. Feeling the caressing of the breeze on my soft and tender skin while I sipped my hot white tea and watching the world goes by.  I can hear the melody of the chirping birds while looking at my neighbour's swimming pool. In fact, I have early weekends this week.  Been enjoying myself since Tuesday.  Off from Tuesday to Thursday.  Here goes the updates while I am eating yogurt, burning my aromatherapy candle and having my favourite Winnie The Pooh bear by my side.  Here goes my happening updates.....

Tuesday afternoon I indulged myself for my luxury pedicure.  Had my sexy toe nails painted in a shade of pinkish red.  Loving it.

My sexy pinkish red pedicure

It was a very happening Wednesday.  On my way to meet bestie for lunch, fashionably yours fell down because of this man who walked behind me banged into my body at Somerset MRT station.  Both of us were lying on the floor. I couldn't get up for a while, so he helped me to get up. He keep asking me are you ok ? I'm so slim & fragile,so you think I am ok ? My body, right palm are so painful and right arm bleeds abit due to the scratches. I can remember his face, a tall caucasian man. OUCH ! crying.  I am so slim and don't have fats to cushion the fall, so painful. He must be so smitten by me that he didn't watch out where he was walking. This is so drama. I was in shocked.  One moment I was walking and the next moment I was lying on the floor. Some people just stood there and looked at the 2 of us. They thought we were filming. So cartoon.  Luckily I did not broke any bone.  I was so worried last night and began to wonder will I have any internal injury.  Crossing my fingers hoping it is just bruises and nothing serious. My palm was a bit swollen from the fall but now is ok after my bestie gave me 1st aid using ice on it to reduce the swelling. Hoping the aching will go away soon.   I was thinking if I am pregnant and this man banged into me and caused me to fall down, that would be terrible.  Now we have to be careful of the people walking around us, they can bang into us even if we are careful.  After I recovered from the shock, met up with bestie and proceed to lunch at Ichiban boshi.

My chawan mushi rice set

My toufu salad

    Bestie's Unagi bento set

We requested for a glass of ice for me to relieve my swelling palm from the fall from the staff.  It took them more than ten minutes to serve us a glass of ice.  We enjoyed our lunch though by now we are so sick of eating there  Don't think we will eat there again for quite some time.  Time to eat other food at other restaurants.  We ate and chatted happily.  Interesting and enjoyable.  Afterwhich we took a stroll down to Wisma Atria because I need to redeem some vouchers.  The weather was hot, so we tried to walk under the shade whenever possible.  Actually bestie was supposed to go together with me to the salon to do our hair, but she had another appointment, so she will do her hair next month.  Meanwhile I proceed to the salon to do my hair.  Fashionably yours had a great time at the hair salon yesterday though miss bestie company's at the salon.   Loving my new hairdo, so chic.  Will take picture and post picture soon, so stay tune to my blog.  Cut away all the bad luck (since I fell down).  Now all the good luck come to me. New hairdo for the Lunar New Year. New Year, New Look. All the good luck come to me.  I want to win tomorrow night's SGD10 million TOTO.  Everybody HUAT.

After I am done with my hair at the salon, I shopped around the mall. 

Bought  this from SaSa

A cute lipgloss

Mavala Double Lash

The Balm Overshadow

Shopped also at Watson and bought 2 packets of dried guava.  Thereafter is home sweet home.

Bascially today I just wanna rest alot since I fell down yesterday.  My auntie and uncles came to my place for CNY visiting too.  Yes we are still celebrating CNY and visitings.  It is like this when we have big families.  Was nice catching up with my uncle and aunties this morning.  Besides, fashionably yours also accomplished many tasks today. 

Last week, I passed by Nature Republic at 313 Somerset and bought some of their products to try out.  After using their toner for a week, I find their toner is not bad.  I still need more time to try out the sun balm though initial usage was so so only.  Anyone out there using Nature Republic products ? Feel free to share your experience and feedback with me.  Thanks.

OUCH ! still feel so sore and body aching now due to the fall.  Miserable feeling.  Hoping to recover soonest possible.  Tomorrow will be back to my office to clear some works, catch up and have fun with my buddies.  Afterall everyone will be on weekend mood mode.  From March onwards, gonna be madness because lots of projects in the pipelines for fashionably yours.  Will try not to think about it.  One thing at a time.  

Have a fabulous weekend everyone.  Cheers. 

My 1st week of Jan 2010

1st week of Jan 2010 has gone by.  Now we are stepping into the 2nd week of Jan 2010.  Hope everyone has adjusted from the post festive holidays seasons and the engine has warmed up for serious work and businesses by now.  Have you been keeping to your New Year Resolutions so far ?  Yes fashionably yours has been keeping to mine.  I am eco-friendly and have been eating lots of salads.

My simple home made black pepper smoke salmon salad with with Italian dressing

My 1st week of Jan 2010 was hectic. Lots of reports to do in the office.  Suddenly I was down with stomach virus infections for 2 days.  Then I visited my dentist last Thursday to fix my gums.  I don't like to visit dentist but I have no choice for the sake of my gums.  My dentist is so super good business.  It was so difficult to fix appointment with him.  Finally managed to book a slot to fix my gums.  He has fixed my gums problems, but naughty me ate some hard stuff over the weekends and caused my gums to be painful again.  He advised me to eat some soft food first till my gums are stronger enough to handle harder food.  I think I must be a good good girl to listen to my dentist's advise now.  I will eat porridge, more salads and no hard meats.  Glad I went to see my dentist so that I don't have to suffer the pain anymore.  Next I need to extract my wisdom tooth and I am so scared of pain...another headache.  At first I want to extract my wisdom tooth this month but on second thoughts I think better let my gums become stronger and stablised first then I book appointment to extract it.  One thing at a time....I must be patience.  One must visit dentist every 6 months for maintainence. 

I am glad to be back at work because had lovely time with my wondeful buddies.  Last Friday we went to McCafe for lunch. It was my first McDonald lunch of 2010.  Also I haven't been to McDonald for at least 3 months since my gums infections.

Our table

We had the fillet o fish McValue Lunch set

My hot cup of Darjeeling tea

Now I am feeling much better and resting over the weekends.  I would say I have a good start to 2010 and hoping it will be that way.  I am feeling happy.  Feel blissful and loved that so many lovely people caring for me and loving me.  Guess we should do unto others what you want others to do unto you.   It is all very reflective.  

I was at the supermarket last week and they have been playing Chinese New Year songs, so are the shops.  They are also selling CNY goodies....wow ! so fast CNY is coming soon which means the next Public Holiday is CNY on 14 February. Note to self to shop for some CNY clothes.....Yes time to shop....haven't been shopping much lately.  Must budget also while shoppings....

What's in this cute cup ?

It is my home made cup of chrysanthemum

The weather was so hot over the weekends that I make myself a hot cup of chrysanthemum drinks to cool down my body heatiness.  Refreshing.  One good thing about the hot weather is my laundry is dry now.  So far not too bad, still breezy over at my place.  So it is sunny with some breeze.  In fact, I am enjoying my lazy Sunday lazing around admist the peaceful lush greenery and listening to the birds chirping on the trees.  Life is beautiful indeed.  

Alrighty time for me to have my beauty sleep now.  Good night and sweet dreams.

Have a great week ahead everyone and take care.
