Sunday, November 10, 2013 watami x ichi tei x hangul lesson x etc
Just abit of update here.
My mom's attempt to make lu rou fan and it was so effing good!
 This was the day when April and I went to Suntec to take some site pictures. went to have keisuke ramen after that! and they have this unique japanese green tea cola that we never seen before! so we decided to try it! Actually it was more like cola in a lighter colour? haha, the taste of the green tea is very mild though, nevertheless worth a try! 
we were both full so we decided to share a bowl of ramen! its nice but very salty.
 Saw a japanese market and couldnt resist going in.. and i came out with all these junk food! ramune candy, and milk salt candy! super yummmmy.  out with ssa some weeks ago for movie and food. Had Nam Nam for lunch.        Jumbo seafood some days ago as it was my sis's treat! no idea why she suddenly treat us. hahaha! this is some duck with mango dish, very nice!  drunken prawns.  mushroom with asparagus.  sambal kangkong.  claypot tofu.  Yang Chou fried rice.  and the main star.. pepper crab! they were nice to tell us that if we open and there's no meat inside, we can ask for a new dish!   Chilli crab, my fave! The total bill came up to $200++! imo more worth it if we go to jap restaurant? hahaha.   2 weeks ago I just started hangul lesson with my sis out of interest! she saw the deal from groupon and we decided to go since it's quite cheap! on the way i saw this toasted sandwich for the first time and decided to try it!  the lesson was 7:30-9:00 and i totally dont have time to eat! so i decided to buy this.. it was so-so only! 
this textbook cost $50 and we didnt really use it for the first 2 weeks. should have shared 1 instead. LOL.
 and these are our ''name tags'' so the sang saeng nim can call our our names during lesson. he's quite humourous.. but sometimes he teaches too fast i cannot catch up. LOL. and he told us not to write down the romanization of the hangul words when he teach. but it very hard to remember!! for now, i learn the consanants and vowels. but sometimes i tend to forget 1 or 2 of them. and i take time to figure out how to read 1 word because its made up of different vowels and consanants. hahaha. And not to mention he already start teaching slightly more advance stuff already! hope that by the end of the course i can at least understand some hangul so that next yr if i go korea it will be easier for me!  random cause my legs looks endless through the reflection. hahaha.  Mad love my Tara Skorts from Love and bravery. Their skorts are always sold out within mins and i always have to join backorder! and the backorder always take a month which is very longgggg.  Some random days, accompany April to go to Benefit Brow Bar after she see me going. hahaha. she was so lucky to choose tht day for her appointment cause it was their brow bar day and she had free eye brow colour lightening for FREE it cost $30+ if im not wrong. and also given a few free sample!   We decided to go Ichi Tei after that and they initially told us they were closed for the day but eventually let us in after they ask the little boy to ask us if we wanted udon! hehe, super happy cause we missed it alot and the owner still remembers us! 
saba shio udon, our fave!
walked past this ice cream shop and decided to go in and take a look.
 so many flavours that i sampled all bloody nice omg. especially grape yakult yoghurt, and 3-4 other flavours i forgot already. LOL.  Here's our yuzu sherbet, breakfast cereal (my fave!) and raspberry which was given to us wrongly! 
saw this on their instagram and i find it so funny. LOLLLL
 
random eye makeup of the day. hehehe. bothered to do my lower eye makeup for a few days. hate that my eyes are small and my eyelid is not very high even with the help of eyelid tape. so if i dont line my eye thick enough, my eyes looks even smaller. but if i line them thick, my double eyelid are not that visible! and i cannot stick the eyelid sticker too high because sometime it goes haywire and the whole sticker will just squeeze out from my lids and doesnt form the double eye lid instead. ok, i know it's very hard to understand what im talking about. hahaha.
 Watami with my family. Had intended wanted to use the $50 vouchers that i won but realized it's only valid for mon-fri... T_T never mind, we headed there anyways! Hamaguri kamameshi toyko fukagawa-fu. Its some clam with fugakawa pot rice and you have to wait for it to cook for 20mins until the fire goes off bfore you can eat! quite nice!   kaisen yaki udon.  Zeppin soup konbu dashi chanko nabe. seafood and meat hotpot with a clear broth. we love clams so much, we ordered several clam dish. LOL.  mentai potato salad.  Asari ishinabe soup. always my top favourite!  ishiyaki stamina don.  salmon don.  Hamaguri tappuri udon. this is actually similar to Asari ishinabe soup but with udon! more shiok!! but the soup is different from the Ishinabe soup. that one has a rather buttery taste, while this is more like miso soup! 
Ending off with maccha parfait! the ice cream is very small and underneath is all cornflakes. LOL.
The bill is about $130 which is relatively cheap for 6 pax! Went for Escape Plan movie after that. Boy it was nice! i love movies with smart plot that makes the lead in the movie very smart. hahahaa. i will be so impressed by their plot all the time, just like taken! can never get over the movie though after watching a few times i found some loop holes. LOL.
tried to colour my hair purple w app to see how i look. hahaha, because i wanna dye my hair purple!!
  Dinner w Fifi last week. we kena ''put aeroplane'' by someone. dk why the person MIA. haha forget it, lucky we have each other. Been almost 2 mths since we last met.    Had our dinner at Saveur, as always, i will order the duck confit! but this time it feels a little salty.  saw an old pic of mine and i was shocked that my nose look like that in the past!! :O no i did not do any plastic surgery or photoshop. i guess it just changes as i grew up + the help of make up! not saying my nose is very perfect now, i do want a sharper and higher nose! would totally go for fillers if i have the money! the old pic of mine is just.... Horrible! LOL. 
My sis's 18th birthday! celebrate with a yoghurt cake as usual! their deco for cake is not very pretty huh? LOL.
 This cutie pie here has left our house and will be taken care by other nanny from tomorrow! that is so saddddd. couldnt bear to leave herrrr! i rushed home to see her last friday when swimming was cancelled! LOL. lucky i made it in time!! my bus was not coming so i took another bus and walked a longer way! gosh... haha i love her too much. xD 
This is when we tell her there's thunder coming! hahaahah. she's pooping btw. LOL!
