Everything will pass, just like how the four plus months in HK flew past. Ten weeks of internship is ending soon! One more week to go. 

So for the past few weeks, I have been OT-ing, doing work for travel fair. And thinking whether events is even my cup of tea. Hmm. 

But food is the best therapy for everything.

Llaollao at Marina Square after lunch at DTF, checking out the fair at Kimchi and bowling. This yogurt is not bad, much more worth it than Sogurt which tastes kind of too artificial!

Just look out this fishy goodness :> Salmon sushi for like $4.80 I think. 

The other lor mee at Hong Lim, hmm. Each lor mee has its own good points I guess.

Oh look who has a photo with My Melody and Hello Kitty that flew from Japan!!

Okay just some of the working perks huh. Taking photos with celebrities LOL. 

Been an amazing 9 weeks at work other than feeling tortured when everyone's too busy to allocate me work. Cause I hate having nothing to do. One huge reason why I can never be a tai tai cause tai tai does nothing productive zzz.

Really admire people who are very down-to-earth, really enjoy talking to people of diverse background. 

Another long day of work omggggg, good night. 

God, give us the reason 

Youth is wasted on the young 

It's hunting season and this lamb is on the run 

Searching for meaning 

But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark? 

One of my new favourite song. Adam Levine's voice is so so good. Few more days to the travel fair! Finished the second season of Sherlock ^^

Okay good night. 

Boom clap, the sound in my heart

 The beat goes on and on and on and on and 

 Boom clap, you make me feel good 

 Come home to me, come home to me now

Current favourite song :>

One more week to the travel fair, three more weeks till the end of Professional Attachment, four more weeks till the start of school and Batam trip.

So what have I been up to, since I am back in Singapore for almost two months hmm. 

Been OT-ing for the past week or so, weird how I only have work after 6pm zzz. Kind of sucks that I have to keep pestering for work but kind of happy that the colleagues give me quite a lot of freedom to do things. Like planning games for Mediacorp artistes (hahaha), liaising with sponsors and Mediacorp, SPH etc. Ohhhh go and check out U-Weekly travel supplement magazine hahaha, what the colleagues refer to 'my baby'.

For days that I am not OT-ing, I am like watching Sherlock. Pretty amazing leh Sherlock. Quite exciting and it's good that one season doesn't have that many episodes. Not as draggy as er, TVD. Gave up on TVD already.

So last Saturday, I went to ask for an off day cause I have been OT-ing and I don't have that much day. Tried Lola's cafe ^^ Long queue on weekends I guess cause there's nothing to do in Singapore other than eating and shopping zzz.

YAY EGGS BENEDICT :>

Their coffee was normal, the matcha latte was too sweet. Hmm.

Honey Paprika Crispy Wings, which was quite nice. 

Lola's fully monty breakfast. Having the name 'Lola' in it, I thought this was the signature dish. But sadly the scrambled eggs wasn't that good. I MISS AUSTRALIAN DAIRY CO. Can I fly back to HK for it and eat Ichiran ramen too? 

Sea salt chocolate tart with coffee cream. Love the chocolate part, but the sea salt taste was too over-powering, can't taste the coffee in the cream.

Oh and guess what, I got the tart for free, cause they took too long with my eggs benedict. Come, everyone should go out with me cause I seem to always get some sort of free food HAHAHA.

Tai Wah Minced Pork Mee, Hong Lim Market and Food Centre.
VERDICT: Supposed to be famous, but it's really not nice leh. I don't like the noodles SIGH.

Matcha Soy Milk Pudding Parfait from Maccha House at Orchard Central B2.

VERDICT: Nice, but I think need to share with people cause it's quite big. I want to go back to try their matcha drinks someday :D

Shoyu Ramen from Santouka Ramen, Central.
VERDICT: Kind of disappointing. :( Don't like the noodles texture, kind of hard and the soup wasn't that good sigh.

Crayfish Hor Fun from Tuck Kee Ipoh Sah Ho Fun #02-40, Hong Lim Complex

VERDICT: Not bad, interesting combination hehe

 

Laksa from Sungei Road Trishaw Laksa #02-66, Hong Lim Complex
VERDICT: Smells and really good hehe, people who don't eat spicy stuff can eat this too cause the laksa is not spicy at all!

Eggs Benedict from Habitat Coffee

VERDICT: Not bad, at least the eggs flow. But I think there should be better ones around hehe.

Irish cream coffee from Habitat Coffee

VERDICT: SO CUTE, but isn't Irish cream supposed to contain alcohol?! :(

Green tea mille crepes, Lady M
VERDICT: EXPENSIVE but I guess I know why. So many layers, the texture tasted really good, and strong green tea taste (:

Buttermilk waffles topped with fresh fruits and vanilla bean ice-cream, Strangers' Reunion
VERDICT: Ice-cream itself was normal imo but I love the waffles. :D

Green tea shaved ice from Mei Hong Yuen

VERDICT: SIGH, the green tea taste not strong enough, red bean was too sweet, I miss the shaved ice from HK!!


Saveur's pasta
VERDICT: Pretty good :)


Seabass from Saveur
VERDICT: Not bad but a little bit too salty for my liking


Duck confit from Saveur
VERDICT: Not bad too :) 


Beef stroganoff from Ma Maison, Central, Clark Quay
VERDICT: Not bad, I thought it will be overrated but this tasted quite good! Love the sauce and the omelette tasted good too. And there's 20% off for ladies on Monday woohoo :)

Roasted meat

1. Roasted pork and roasted duck from Yat Lok, Central/Taipo MTR
2. Guangdong BBQ which has numerous outlets, and all the roasted meat is good! 

1. Ma la gao (steamed cake), glutinous rice, baked BBQ pork buns, osmanthus jelly from Tim Ho Wan, Central/Shamshuipo/Northpoint MTR (Note: Various outlets, but Shamshuipo outlet is big enough hence don't really have to queue)
2. Chee cheong fun wrapped around doughstick, custard bun, chicken feet from One Dim Sum, Prince Edward MTR Exit A.
3. Liushabao from San Hing dimsum, Sheung Wan or Central MTR, Kennedy Town (Note: It opens from 3am-4pm and you have to take a bus/taxi there)
4. Ma la gao and lotus paste bun from Lin Heung tea house, Central MTR (Note: It opens at like 6am, but I haven't try a lot of its dishes)

Cafes

1. Matcha milk and pork loin croissant from Coffee Alley, Causeway Bay/Tsim Sha Tsui MTR. (Note: There's a long queue of up to like 2.5 hours so do go there early! And the croissant was some seasonal item, so it may not be there anymore. The waffles are famous too, but not a 'must-try' IMO)
2. Matcha drink from Via Tokyo, Causeway Bay. (Note: It has very little seats but the cute latte art makes up for it. To me, at least. One of the best matcha drink I ever have!)
3. Eggs Benedict and coffee from 18Grams, Mongkok/Sheung Wan MTR. 

Sushi

Sushi One at Mongkok/Tsim Sha Tsui MTR. Cause I only ate from here unless you include Sushi Takeout haha. Half priced sushi after 10pm, how awesome ^^

Ramen

1. Ichiran, Causeway Bay MTR (Note: The queue can be crazy, so go during non-peak hours. And order strong for the broth so it will taste better. And don't order the beancurd dessert thing cause it's tasteless and expensive)
2. Butao Ramen, Central MTR (Note: It has numerous outlets and don't try the green/red king cause it doesn't taste good. BUT must order their eggs! BEST RAMEN EGGS EVER) 

Other food that I want to try (but didn't have the opportunity)

1. Black sesame and condensed milk toast from Cafe Matchbox, Causeway Bay MTR
2. Yogurt from Smile Yogurt Dessert Bar, Causeway Bay, Tsim Sha Tsui MTR
3. Cafe Corridor, Causeway Bay MTR
4. Poached Eggs and coffee from Cafe Deadend, Sheung Wan MTR
5. Green tea flavoured dimsum (omg haha) from 老點點心竹筒飯, Mongkok MTR
6. Wanton noodles and liushabao from Ho Hung Kee, Causeway Bay MTR
7. Black sesame egglet from Mammy Pancake, Hung Hom MTR

1. Fa Yuen street, walk from Prince Edward/Mongkok East MTR. Rows of shops but mainly clothes that are not super nice, so must slowly dig
2. Argyle Centre, Mongkok MTR. Shopping heaven, and do eat the cold noodles as mentioned just now.
3. Kwai Fong MTR. Another feel like Far East Shopping Centre place!
4. Tsuen Wan MTR, didn't go and shop there but I heard that it's good from locals
5. Shenzhen/Guangzhou. Apparently Guangzhou is even cheaper!

1. Hiking but be prepared to spend one whole day. I will recommend Dragon's Back since it's easy, the views are pretty and you can end up at the beach, Tai Long Wan. Views actually get a little repetitive if you hike too much haha.
2. Cliff jump at Sai Kung. I didn't try but do it if you like thrill hahaha.
3. Cycling (Not applicable to me cause I can't cycle sigh pie)
