Combined 团圆饭!

Luffs' mum suggested having a combined reunion dinner this year and off we went to Roland Restaurant. I have heard so many good reviews about this place but was alittle disappointed after the whole dinner experience this evening.

Oh well! All the photos turned out blur from my camera so I shall end this post with a photo of the yu sheng.

I Am Yummily Satisfied!

It was a really good feeling to be back at Shangri-La Hotel - All the nice memories of 18 October 2010!

This time at Shang Palace for some yummy food!

We were ushered to the "寿眉" room.

Nice lighting!

The dining area which was nicely prepared for us!

The cosy lounge attached to the dining area!

The two fathers!

Time to get settled down and wait for the food to be served!

Uncle & Mum

The service was superb!

The waitress serving us saw that mum was cold, so she brought a shawl in for her.

A very unique tea cup, yah?

And how can I miss out the menu?

And now the food.

:)

Four Deluxe Appetiser Delight

What's beneath the cover?

Braised Superlative Shark's Fin!

Sauteed Lobster, Egg White, Crab Roe

Soon Hock, Shark's Bone Broth

Crisp Chicken "Hong Kong" Style

And those sticks were 馒头 which Luffs requested for me!

Hand-Made La Mian, Minced Meat Sauce Beijing Style

Three Treasures Dessert

The food was yummy and all of us had a really good time chatting and laughing.

And here's a photo of those who were present at the dinner!

When Work Gets Tough!

"... Sometimes our work gets tough and at times we may feel discouraged but if we see this as a mission and not just a job, we will find the work worthwhile ..."

* I need some happy food to cheer me up! *

New Toy To Start The New Year!

I was thrilled when the company decided to change my BlackBerry Bold 9000 away to the new BlackBerry Torch 9800.

To add to the excitement, SingTel actually delivered it to office on the first day of work!

This new toy works pretty much like an iPhone except for the additional keyboard which will come in handy when I reply emails.

Ok, point taken - I promise to work harder this year, boss! :)

2010 In 30 Answers

1. What did you do in 2010 that you’d never done before?
I think I did many things in 2010 that I have never done before! Hehe… Things like working on our house renovation and planning for our wedding were 2 really major things I did.

2. Did you keep your new years’ resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I don't remember setting any new year resolutions for 2010 because they are never fulfilled. Likewise for 2011!

3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
Luffs’ cousin (in-law) did!


4. Did anyone close to you die?
No, thank God that 2010 has been kind.

5. What countries did you visit?
Australia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Taiwan - All for work trips!

6. What would you like to have in 2011 that you lacked in 2010?
Galatians 5:22-23 --- I need more self-control (in fact all the fruit of the Spirit)!

7. What date from 2010 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?

18 October - It was the happiest day of my life and I totally miss this day!

8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Losing some 12 kg in 6 months for my big day!

9. What was your biggest failure?
Being distracted by the things around me.

10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
No serious illness but the common flu / fever / sore throat at the end of the year was good enough to kill.

11. What was the best thing you bought?
The carpet which is now sitting in my living room?!!! Hahaha…

12. Where did most of your money go?
Paying for the house renovation and buying things for the house but I guess it is all worth it.

13. What did you get really, really, really excited about?
Our home sweet home! I was really excited to see the renovation works complete and I must say both Luffs and I were pretty happy with the ‘end product’.

14. What song(s) will always remind you of 2010?
Officially Missing You by Janice & Sonia!

15. Compared to this time last year, are you:

i. Happier or sadder?
Happier. Because I am enjoying married life and I hope it stays this way.

ii. Thinner or fatter?
Thinner. I have been working hard to lose weight for the wedding and I am determined to stay this way.

iii. Richer or poorer?
Poorer in the monetary aspect - All thanks to the wedding and the house! But no regrets because I really enjoyed my wedding and totally love the house I am staying in now.

16. What do you wish you’d done more of?
I wished I have been more focused at work.

17. What do you wish you’d done less of?
I wished I have whined / complained less and also learn to stop letting the negativities of life get to me.

18. What was your favorite TV program?
None because I am often too tired to watch TV programs when I get home.

19. Do you hate anyone now that you didn't hate this time last year?
I don’t think so because it takes more energy to hate than it takes to love.


20. What was the best book you read?
I don’t like to read and the only ‘book’ I read is the bible so it has got to be the best book I have ever read.

21. What was your greatest musical discovery?
I still remember the lyrics to some of the songs which I used to listen when I was a lot younger. Haha!

22. What did you want and get?
iPhone 4 - Been wanting to get an iPhone for ages! Thanks to Luffs and Maggie Jie who fulfilled this wish for me.

23. What was your favorite film of this year?
I have only watched 6 movies in 2010 and I guess I enjoyed “The Karate Kid” the most.

24. What did you do on your birthday?
I went to work and met up with the family for steamboat dinner at Coca Suki Restaurant (Takashimaya outlet).

25. How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2010?
No fashion concept I supposed - I wear whatever I am comfortable in.

26. What kept you sane?
GOD! And also a loving husband, my ever-patient-and-helpful mother, my super cute sister and a handful of close friends.

27. What political issue stirred you the most?
The elections? Hahaha… Kidding!

28. Who did you miss?
My grandma - I wish she was still around just so that we can spend more time together.

29. Who was the best new person you met?
Hmm... The only new folks I met were for work purpose so none of them would qualify for this.


30. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2010?
Marriage is a union of two people who wish to spend their lives together. It should be based upon an unconditional commitment and a sacrificial love for one another, and each party has to place the needs of others before the needs of self.
