I’m drenched!
You see, I decided to go for a little stroll around my work area to digest my lunch, but halfway through the walk (about 10 minutes later) it started to rain like crazy! My shirt was so wet that I had to change it.
So how is the new year so far? This week my schedule is pretty packed this week as I have a night course to attend after work. Luckily it’s only for one week!
This past weekend ……
Needle session on Saturday
Grocery (window) shopping with dad at Carrefour
After that we headed to Mustafa Centre … the man was selling Indian desserts
Stopped for fresh coconut water after walking for hours
On Sunday, we went to Singapore Botanic Gardens
For a little picnic – gotta do this more often because it’s fun :) Next time I will bring frisbees and balls
Decaf iced latte w/o syrup

This past weekend flew by so fast. I was on work duty on both Saturday and Sunday afternoons (something that I have to get used to because come next year, there will be weekend events once every month), hence didn’t really get to do much. We were both so tired yesterday after dinner time that [...]

Happy Friday! I started off the day at 6.15 am with an 8 km run. Waking up an hour earlier than usual was a little rough at first. For the past 10 days, I had to get up earlier as I needed to be at work around 8.30 am (instead of 9.30 – 10 am). [...]

Singapore does have a “countryside” aka rural landscapes where development is minimal and there are no tall buildings (no tall buildings + greens = I like!). Saturday, we (me, husb, mum and dad) headed to HayDairies, a local goat farm. I’ve been wanting to visit this goat farm for months. Not that I have never [...]
