Just woke up from a nap and my fingers are feeling slightly numb so I'm facing some difficulty trying to update this site but today has been a wonderful day and good things are always worth sharing. ;-)
After ions, we finally met up with Sandy and her 2 kids! I believe the last time I saw her was some time last year when we went to Botanic Gardens for a picnic so I was really, really glad I got to see the children today. :-)
Kids grow so fast when you're not looking but I cannot express how happy I was when they ran into our arms today. :') At least they no longer shy away from us and they still recognize us!
We couldn't decide what to eat so we left Jayden to make the final call and he wanted noodles so I suggested we try NamNam Noodle Bar since we've never eaten there before. All was going good until I saw the menu and realize they serve mainly (but not only) pork and beef. By now y'all might have realized that I do not eat pork or beef so I had limited choices to choose from but I was prepared to try their bahn mi, which is a Vietnamese term for all kinds of bread, that resembles a stuffed baguette. The one I was about to order had grilled chicken, omelette and tomato but there was nothing for Jewelle to eat so we left the place in the end.
Instead, we settled for Skinny Pizza, which was also my virgin experience there today. But let's just say I really enjoy the crust of my pizza so Domino's is the one for me any day.
What we ordered was the Good Ol' Ham and Cheese and The English Breakfast because obviously a single 12" pizza is not going to fill 5 people's tummy especially when there is hardly any dough. I appreciate the taste though. It was something new and they were really generous with the topping. :-) We also tried their truffle fries. (I don't understand the rave/hype about truffle fries, anyone?)
Total bill came up to $71 and the sister paid (as usual). After lunch, we went to get ice-cream for the kids and ended up leaving MacDonald's with 4 cones of ice-cream. Jayden kept eyeing my chocolate-coated vanilla cone but eventually preferred his normal vanilla cone. (Think he figured they all taste the same under the layer of chocolate, what a practical boy.)
Anyway we walked around, went to places like Daiso and... I only remember Daiso. The kids were getting tired (and cranky) and it was getting hard to appease them. :-( Our last stop was G200, where the sister got Mama her dress, and then we decided to come home.
Couldn't resist taking our outfit shots today before we flagged a cab:
I walked into Aldo today in search for this pair of slip-ons and I found it but they were going for $119! I've seen similar pairs on Instagram and so I decided to buy a pair online for $29.90! So excited to place my order soon! I know I shouldn't be buying more shoes because I've to pay for my new MacBook (what a bummer that my Macbaby died) but... a girl can never have enough shoes! Anyway I throw out my old shoes when I get new ones. :-)
Also, any idea what I can do with my current MacBook? Apparently the logic keyboard (?) is spoilt so it cannot exit safe mode. And also, the keyboard is spoilt too so it keeps telling me my password is wrong even when it's right. :-( I can't even sell it when it's in such a ridiculous condition, ugh.
Okay, shall not go there today.
Well, it's Sunday night! Better cherish the last of the weekends before we all return to slogging tomorrow. Don't fret, the days will pass real quick! :-)
Toodles and rest well, y'all~

Taxi selfie while on our way to Plaza Sing
The kids were so excited to see their own faces on my camera's flip screen and couldn't help but experiment on their own!
Y'all are so, so precious
As you can tell, I've got crazy hair all day, every day and I'm not even fazed by it anymore. Just waiting for my fringe to grow longer so I can pull it back. So tired of managing my bangs especially when my baby hair grows out curly near my hairline.
Hi there, Jewelle!

Knitted Outerwear & Shorts: MDS /
Shoes: Aldo / Bag: agńes B
I was contemplating to go out in that knitwear because the weather, oh my, was crazy. It was so fricking hot I was about to die. :-( I still braved the heat in it though. I wore a cropped camisole on the inside, which you can get from Purpur. And then when I was searching for a matching bag, I dug out Mama's old agńes B. :-)
Top: H&M / Shoes: Aldo
Bag: Satchel from Bugis / Watch: Fossil
Dress down from top to toe on the sister today. She was gonna pul on the London soldier printed top from MDS but decided it don't look good with her shorts.
I've been trying to find shorts like the ones on my sis - simple and sophisticated and would go well for a daily affair - but its just so damn difficult. Whatever fits on my hips would be too big for my waist and whatever goes on my waist would be too small for my hips, y'know what I mean? I always preferred high-waist shorts because it accentuates my shapes but I really wouldn't mind hipster shorts. Shall hunt around for a while I guess!
Also, any idea what I can do with my current MacBook? Apparently the logic keyboard (?) is spoilt so it cannot exit safe mode.
