Saveur

Took a little trip down to Purvis Street for our long-awaited visit to Saveur. Reached there half an hour after the opening hour and we were placed eighteenth on the list of the queue already. Hanged around for half an hour before seats were available. And le magical gourmet journey took off from there. LOL.



Fel's dope kicks with neon trimmings.





La menu.


Confit of Salmon with Apple and Fennel Salad.

Angel Hair Pasta with Sherry minced Pork and Sakura Ebi.

Beef Bourguignon with Root Vegetables and Mixed Greens.

Comes with potato salad.

Confit of Duck with Orange Segments and Saute Shittake.

Textures of Citrus.

Regretted having dessert at Saveur because it was too sour for our liking, so we moved on to ease our dissatisfaction elsewhere -- Tom's Palette.


Apple Pie and Chocolate Sorbet Ice Cream.



Food food food! I can never get sick of food.

Bonne nuit y'all. x

Can you take me back to the person I used to be?

We're all tired from being sad, because it happens more than often. We're all tired from figuring out why we're sad, because sometimes we never really find the reasons why. We're all tired from confiding in others, because what's the most someone can usually do? Be there for us? Where's "there"? How long can you be "there"? We're all tired, so much so that we've come to a point that it doesn't even bother us that no one cares, because we ourselves don't.

Everyone will reach where I stand one day, or maybe not.
But I've stood stationary for quite a while now.

Nothing in particular happened and my life isn't miserable, but it saddens me to know how someone, once so care-free, can become so bereft of this necessitous thing in life called happiness.

I'm leaving for Shanghai in less than a month. The next two weeks are down for the preparation for my major papers. The third week's occupied by preparation for Shanghai and the dive camp. There are still so many people I've yet to catch up with, still so many stories I've yet to unfold, still so many doubts I've yet to clear, still so many strangers I've yet to befriend, still so many ventures I've yet to explore, but time shows no mercy.

8/8





Tying ribbons after ribbons gets tiring after a while.

With a strip of gold.

Attempt to mimic the medieval font failed LOL






I rarely experiment with dull colours. In fact, it's my first time using olive or even grey. But there's a first to everything and you could say that I'm pretty satisfied with this new venture. 

Oh and did I mention how I hate including the words 'happy birthday' in birthday cards?

OOTD

Hahah, I kid :-) They're a really loving couple.

It's Auggie's 19th birthday; a day that I had been dying to make perfect because of all that he duly deserves. Tonight was far from perfect, and I'm not proud of my efforts at all. But it made me feel much less guilty when his tears of joy hailed. Happy birthday, Aug. It's been wonderful knowing you. x

Do you feel?

7 billion people, 24 hours;
What are the chances of someone feeling in despair within each hour of the day?
(Please don't bother doing the math)

In an hour, a girl could have mustered enough courage to take her life.
In an hour, a father could have walked out on a family.
In an hour, a couple could turn into two absolute strangers.
Take all of these and multiply by 24. No, wait-
Scrape "in an hour" out, all these could even happen in a split second.

Life can do terrible things, but the Earth carries on spinning anyway.

Both soon to be mine ^^
Happy 20th birthday, Blink 182!
