Parent's 34th Wedding Anniversary

Saturday, November 01, 2008

Coincidently, it falls on Halloween..but parents wanted to go M'sia so we decided to dine out a day before instead.

At Soup Restaurant

This is their 34th wedding anniversary and these 2, still holding hands when they go out. To sustain a long lasting relationship, there are just too many things to learn..
  1. forgive & forget
  2. remain positive
  3. get rid of all insecure feeling
  4. trust
  5. respect
  6. acceptance
  7. empathy
  8. be a listener
  9. sharing

And the list goes on...

Ben's 30th Birthday

Sunday, October 26, 2008

We got Mark to reserve the room for us and he said it is going to be a surprise, okay, here we are, at the 785sqft City Suite, charging at SGD850/night. As expected, the service is excellent! How do I put it? " THEY NEVER SAY NO TO MY REQUEST "..so far.. Oh, they make me feel like a bride again! Hahahaa..

See this, I wanted to give Ben another surprise at the cafe, I secretly told the waitress, Lily to get me a piece of cake with a candle while Ben was away. Ben was so sharp, he didn't hear our conversation but he read my "sign language"! Before he blew the candle, Lily immediately took out a digital camera and took a picture of us. We thought they will send the photo to our suite later BUT she actually handed it to us after 5 minutes! We were delighted and she even bother to find out each customer's name, yeah, she addressed me as Mrs. Goh when I was requesting my cake. We compliment Lily for her outstanding service.

After a sumptous dinner, we went back to our tidied room and found a bottle of red wine. Hmm, I don't remember ordering any so Ben called the receptionist and found out that Mark reserved the suite under "wedding anniversary" and the wine is for celebration..how thoughtful..

This is going to be the first time for me to create movie this way, I ripped the song from my favourite CD and created this movie especially for the man of my life, Ben. I love you baby and I promise you, no matter how, I'll stand by you, forever...


Have I ever mentioned Ben lost his wedding band months after our wedding day at Orchard? We couldn't find it and I thought, it is okay because I don't want him to keep blaming himself for missing the band and we didn't get it replaced until today, yeah after a good 1.5 years, Ben said he wants to wear and he even said it is fine to spend 2k .... hmm, what is he thinking?

3 Surprises Again!

Thursday, October 23, 2008

Ben's 30th Birthday is around the corner.. like last year, I am going to give him surprises and YES, 3 surprises again.. Baking?? NO WAY, that's an super old idea, way too ordinary and I am not going to "copy" it.

#1 - Mandarin Oriental Hotel, he knows about checking-in but he is not aware the types of the room we are going to stay. this or this (photo below)? We stayed here on our wedding day and now the cost per room is SGD950! So, are we coming back to the harbour suite?
#2 - Dinner, Mark was kind enough to make a reservation for 2 of us on that night and it will be on the house. Shall we go for Cherry Garden or MELT ?

#3 - Singapore Flyer! Ben is totally clueless about the #3 surprise ..hahaha.. He keeps telling me not to buy anything for him and he keeps thinking that I am going to hire a sexy girl to dance naked in our room! *fat hope*

Why did I post this when it should be a surprise to him? Oh, have I ever mention Ben doesn't read my blog?

Surprise Surprise !!

Sunday, September 28, 2008

We decided to give mum a surprise - To Celebrate Her 56th Birthday, actually not one surprise but TWO!

First, we told her not to cook and our weekend gathering will be over our place on Saturday. Of course, I will be the one cooking. Ben was very kind to accompany me to do some marketing at Cold Storage and NTUC as he knew I can never carry all the bags on my own. Yeah, we took a cab home after that.

What's for dinner? LAKSA!! Eh...don't ask for recipe because I used premix and add other stuff. *come on, one man show leh, use only 4 hours, ok?*

I know I know, no big deal right? This is not the first time cooking dinner for 10 persons, so what's the surprise?

Tadah !! Peach Longevity Bun from D'Bun ! Mum was so happy!And our second Surprise - ICE CREAM CAKE for mummy!

Although it was a failure but mum never complained and she never did, I remember

- Baking numerous non edible stuff and wasted more than 50 eggs, she always says," Try again tomorrow.."

- During my Sec, I was so FAT that I still thought I was a pretty girl, why? Because no one(in the family)ever tease me. Of course now I know I was indeed SUPER DUPER FATTY BOOM BOOM. I was so touch when she told me she will definitely send me to Marie France..

- I SPENT $800 yakking on the phone with an idiot in my Poly 1st year instead of buying myself an air ticket to London but mum didn't scold me.

- I drove our Toyota out without license and banged against the lamp post, causing a big hump at the front and headlight was gone, mum said," you're so daring.." I thought she was going to wallop me! Maybe she would if it is dad's Merz..hahahaha... joking, I didn't get to drive daddy's Merz because I don't have the guts to get a car license after that accident. *chicken la*


Yeah, that's our mum... Happy Birthday Mummy!!!!

Happy Teacher's Day !

One World One Dream

Friday, August 08, 2008

My first impression : so cute! We are glad and really looking forward the game, counting down, 10 more hours to go, Ben and I will sit tight, with popcorn, drinks, chips ... (a typical couch potato, haha) so anyone dropping by tonight? Guestroom is really !

Why make it on ND?

You are not going to believe this, Ben is going to Little India to celebrate a little girl's birthday and I really wonder, well, you know, the jam(NE line), the human traffic. I shall not comment much but why celebrate on this day? (her bday is definitely not on 0908) Haha.. hope Ben can come home on time so we can watch the ndp show together.

Welcome ~

Any ideas how to celebrate? No more durian cake for sure as daddy doesn't eat durian. Since it falls in the month of June, maybe we should...
