Original Fairy Tale Endings

Lately, I heard something about fairy tales are really just fairy tales. Not in the way how most girls would complain “there is no such thing as happily ever after“, but in actual fact that these stories ended with really gruesome endings originally. I did some research and did a compilation of 10 stories most of us are familiar with. Most of us grew up reading (or watching) Walt Disney storybooks or movies thinking that one fine day, some Prince Charming (or Princess, in my case) would pop out of nowhere and love us forever. I wish they told us these original endings to the so-called fairy tales when we were a little younger. These stories entertained me so much I feel compelled to share them with everyone I know! WARNING – This is a REALLY wordy post.

Grin Affair

Before I start on my post, I would like to thank blog reader dropletsloves for sharing a list of cafes and other food haunts! A and I dropped by Grin Affair yesterday and we loved what we found there! I have to admit that the outlook of the place did put me off for a short while. I guess that was because I was expecting a nice looking cafe and Grin Affair didn’t fit the mental image I had. I am so glad we gave the cupcakes a chance though! It was SO good! Grin Affair is located in the outskirts of town area at Everton Park. It was a really nice neighborhood! To be honest, I was a little appalled when I first arrived at Grin Affairs because I was expecting a cute looking cafe. But this shop looks just like a very old school hole in the wall. There aren’t much seats in the shop, and it is quite a small space. But strangely, I think the simplicity and unpretentious look of Grin …

Mr & Mrs Lan

It gives me great GREAT pleasure to blog about our best friend Sinsin’s wedding today. SINSIN IS FINALLY MARRIED! It has been such a great journey seeing our favourite girl prep for her wedding, and it is such an honour to be part of LTK and Sinsin’s wedding and part of their life. The day started with the tricks the “sisters” have prepared for the groom and his gang of brothers! Toothbrush with wasabi, eating all sort of stuff, balloons, stockings, etc. Hahahaha! It’s my second time being a sister this time round! And the prettiest bride, Sinsin dear! She always got the funkiest poses ever. Disaster! Hahahaha. Cute lah cute lah! :p After a series of phone calls and coordination, we got the news that the groom has finally arrived! So we brought all our stuff and went downstairs to give them a warm welcome. Heh! Guess what Min is doing! Hahahaha. Stockings can be used as paddings also ok! Heh! Big balls on the boys! Hahahaha. And the mayhem continues upstairs! (We had …

Kombi Rocks

I am thrilled about this place the moment I heard about it. And I have to thank Cheryl for such a great recommendation! For those of you who doesn’t know yet, Kombi is actually the name of this type of vehicle shown in the banner above. One of the prettiest designs from Volkswagen, if you ask me! Kombi Rocks is not just any other cute cafe! Other than the “Diner” branch, they also have the “Rides” branch where they have cute vintage vehicles for hire. Whether you’re planning for a photoshoot, wedding or just for a joyride, you can get them! Imagine a wedding with such a cute ride, too cute. That’s us on our way to Kombi Rocks! It’s situated on Yio Chu Kang Road, nearer to the Serangoon side. That’s really close to A’s place and we are thrilled to have discovered another cute cafe to hang out at near home. 🙂 [Yes we bought those old school snacks to eat. WE LOVE!] It is hard to miss this place. There would always …

Hens Night Party

Before I begin, let me say that I’m super super super excited about this post! One of my best friends is getting married this Sunday! YES. I’m talking about the smokin’ hot Sindy See! The girls and I did some preparation for the night, and we also booked a room at Fairmont Hotel. I shall let the pictures do the talking! The girls are all wearing blazer from Min’s Little Red Heels! 🙂 Looking fabulous! And when I say “girlfriends”, A is there too! She has gotten really close with my girlfriends and we can all hang out together now. It’s a nice feeling to have all your friends loving your loved one too! Lianie always like to disturb the girlfriend though. Lol! A almost freaked out when they told her that they need to put lipstick on her because her outfit looks too dull. LMAO. Check out all my beautiful colorful girlfriends! The girls went shopping before check-in too, and Lianie bought a new dress for Sinsin’s wedding night! Random. A’s damn cute banana …

Five & Dime

Hello girls! I’m back to show my little trip to another cafe. This time round, it’s to Five & Dime at River Valley. It was a little date for A and I after a busy week and I really love it! I’m wearing my new top from Adan y Eva! I love the top, other than the lovely nude colors that works for me all the time, the quality is super good too! (No need to iron! Hehe!) There is plenty of parking area around the cafe, but that’s probably we visited the cafe during the off-peak hours too. The cafe looks really cute from the outside! I like the colors of the building and how it looks! We got a seat near the main entrance. The design of the place mats on the table is really cute too. Tastefully done! To be honest, I was expecting to see a huge place because the cafe looks quite big on their Facebook Page. There are about less than 15 tables in the cafe but thankfully, they …

Bangkok III

I am back with another entry about my Bangkok trip! This is the third and last post about this recent trip though, and it feels as if I am on the trip and it is ending all over again. Boo. I miss the Land of Smiles already! For this last entry, I want to share one of my favourite night markets in Bangkok! But before that, here are some pictures taken during our anniversary dinner there. It’s our first year together and we decided to just spend it like any other day. We had dinner at the 9th Cafe in Siam Paragon. It’s just a simple looking cafe but the food was pretty good! (The food is nice everywhere in Bangkok lah!) This is my lady’s ‘happy smile’. The food! A likes her western food and my heart has long been stolen by Thai cuisine. After dinner, we went down to our favourite dessert haunt Vanilla Brassiere and bought a tiny Tiramisu cake before we head back to the hotel. A says this cake is …

New Smiles

I am excited about this entry because I get to introduce a place I went to get the perfect smile! I have always been not very confident with my teeth, especially the upper row because I have a gap between my two front teeth. The ends of the two front teeth are jagged, and my teeth are really small. I’m too used to chewing food on the right side of my mouth, so the right incisor and canine teeth are worn too. My horrible teeth-grinding habit (bruxism) when I sleep is not helpful towards the worn teeth too. As a result, the loss in enamel has caused my teeth to be sensitive as well. Here are a few photos of my teeth to give you a better picture. Sorry for the weird faces in the photos. Heh! So during my short stay in Bangkok, A and I watched some videos from the show “Style By Jury”. Those people did WONDERS with veneers, crowns and whitening work and the results were absolutely amazing! I really love …

365

It has been one year. For our first year anniversary, I set out to write a book just for her eyes only. Here is just a few pages of the book to let it be part of my personal blog. A, thanks for being such a wonderful partner. It has been a fucking awesome 365 days for me. Love.
