“Fly Me To Aussie” Day01: Let’s me tell you some Shanghai Stories 1938

Phew.. finally lunch after the hectic “bridesmaid chore”.. yes, choosing flowers for the bouquet.
It is not as easy as thought, cause the names of flower just doesn’t stop at just rose, lily or so.
And the different types and species with their scientific names doesn’t help!

Now… yes, I need food.. loads of it after killing so many brain cells.
And I was brought to this awesome looking place, Shanghai Stories 1938.
The moment I reach the front door and saw the “yum cha” word, I’m already loving it!


Now the best part of the day started the moment the food arrive one by one on the table.
I always thought I’ve tried most of the variety of dim sum… until today. Yes, when they landed two dishes which I’ve never tried before, the pan fried pork bun with sesame and sticky rice siu mai with pork and mushroom.

Woo la la… the pan fried pork bun is a pan friend version of the xiao long bao. I’m totally falling in love with this.
Who would have thought the pan fried version is so much more yummy and juicy. *yum yum*.. 1 is definately not enough!

The sticky rice siu mai, comes as a surprise to me as well. Yes, I’ve never tried anything like this before. A dish that basically combines the chinese sticky rice dish wrapped with siu mai skin. The fragrant of the sticky rice with pork and mushroom is just amazing.


Oh yeah, not forgetting the baked bbq pork bun pastry as well. *slurp slurp* ooo… the pastry is simply too flaky.
I simply adore this to the max! Ah… how how how?? I should diet to fit in my bridesmaid dress! But ah… who cares, food is too yummy to resist.
And I don’t think I need to go on and on to tell you how well every other thing tasted all just so yummy.

See.. now my cousin also enjoys the food to the max. Super yummy teatime.
Thanks cuzzie.. what’s next? I wonder 😀

Family Ever AfterMe and my "ME-time"

Like Mother, Like Daughter

Everyone says that me and my sister ‍♀️‍♀️ looks alike, in which we both find it quite hard to agree on.
It is pretty confusing, cause they say I look like my mum while my sis look like my dad.

So how can we look alike, unless they also think my parents do looks alike .
Do we alike?

Look who's talkin!Me and my "ME-time"

PUMA Playbus @ Urbanscapes

Super excited at my very first Urbanscapes experience.
It was raining heavily for the past few days, and thank god it ended up with a lovely weather today.

Wandering like a lost child, I finally found the PUMA’s Cool Playbus!
The final outcome of the planned custom made pop-up store double decker bus is really awesome.
Loved it 😍!
They transformed the bottom deck to a pop-up store while the upper deck is use mainly for dance and music performance.

Swag rite? 😎
The crowd is completely mesmerized  and captivated by the performances.
Was quite blown away with the breakdance performance in such a confined space, on top of the bus. Good job guys!

Saw this beautiful yer special flower while selecting bouquet for Nicole’s wedding.
I love how it turns from green to blue…
Aside from morning glory, it’s been a while since I saw some blue colour flower.
Ah… love.. love.. love the blue.

The PD Picnic Affair

Think this is the first time we actually plan and go for a picnic since we graduated.
We’ve known each other for more than 10 years, and finally we manage to make it happen.
Our very first picnic outing 🏖.

It was a little impromptu, but at least we manage to make it happen and it was fun.
A little booze, chips, sea and sand. The perfect combination.
But I guess it is the great companion that completes the circle.

Guys, we should do this more often! *yeay… runs around catching wind*

“Fly Me To Aussie” Day01: Morning coffee at Danks Street Depot

Wooohoo… I’ve finally arrived!
Now, the funny thoughts are back… and I always have this feeling the imigration will not let me go easily.
Right, I think too much.. but can’t help it right. See too much HK drama, where they normally suspect single travellers *LOL*

Weirdly, I manage gracefully passby and even get to proceed though the express lane. *muahaha… evil laugh* yes, I am a lucky and smart traveller 😀

Now yes, where is my sweet cousin and her fiance?? *aha* There they are! I spot them the instant I took the corner.
And since, my cousin needs to pick up another friend which is scheduled to arrive 30mins later… we go pick up free coffee!

YUP!! Free Coffee!! Apparently there’s a “Two coffee, a duty free voucher and newspaper” promotion when you park at Sydney Airport.
Now yes, a good cup of coffee from Danks Street Depot to start my day! *yummy yummy*

I know it’s my lucky day, when we even stumble upon this photobooth in the airport.. which shouts out “FREE photo”.
Yes… FREE! And we love everything free!! Now yes, my first photo in the Australia.
And to my surprise… there’s actually video, which we all didn’t know until we check out the website. Curious??
LOL… ok, I’m kind enough to share the fun here. Click here to view.

“Fly Me To Aussie” Day01: Fly me to Australia

Ta da… this is my first time flying off alone. Yup, to Sydney it is 😀
It was quite a fun and exciting experience, keep checking if I am at the right gate, board the right plane, wondering who’ll be that stranger sitting next to me and etc.
But well, those funny thoughts didn’t really last that long… as I doze off to sleep probably 10mins after boarding the plane.
*giggles* Can’t help it if I haven’t slept well for the past weeks.

It’s been a while, since I woke up to something beautiful… something I would look forward to.
Now beat that, waking up to an infinite soft and fluffy clouds view. *love love love*
And to top that, warm nasi lemak for breakfast… in the air. *evil laugh*
Waking up in the early morning has never been so fun!

Now, happy moments do pass by real quickly.. and I’ve finally landed in the land down under.
Breathing the fresh cool air… and starts to wonder…

Oh where… oh where is my hiao cousin?
Has she arrived? What is the agenda of the day?
Where will this tour guide of mine bring me?
What to eat? What to see? Where to go?

Hemm… now, why does landing always takes so long. Geez!

I am different which makes me weird. I over think which makes me over sensitive. I am not sensible which makes me not reasonable
