massages and such ...

yesterday we went to Thomson Plaza for ice cream but ended up with Roti Mum Coffee Buns (the best among those other roti's - roti boy and papa roti) and a foot massage ...

we saw the advert on the gantry while driving in ... $16 for a foot reflexology session! so we decided to check it out ... ah well it was only avail for weekdays =( but the normal package of $28 for 40 minute foot reflexology and 10 min neck, back and arm massage was quite attractive. They did have a slot available 15 minutes later so we decided to try it out ...

hehe i signed up a package after that, got a chiding from my hubby but i was quite worth it ... 12 sessions plus 1 40min body massage at $280 (works out to be $20 per foot massage and $40 for the body massage) ... if you like foot massage, you can try it out ... it's at Thomas Plaza, 3rd floor, Tranquility Cove. Try Uncle Goh, i wasn't yelping in pain or complaining about ticklish, so overall i though it was excellent.

Oh I also bought Harry Potter's latest book, the half-blood prince thingy (i'm not a fan of this series as you can tell) and i finished it today (ya and i speed read too). I was quite curious though, I don't seem to recall much of the details discussed from the Goblet of Fire, but I could well be missing a book inbetween.

All in all, quite a good read, but somewhat .. lacking? I am not sure, but something seems to be missing ... Goblet of Fire seems better, more complete and a satisfying read. Maybe I'll reread 2 or 3 more times and the story may seem more complete to me (like so what happens to Kreacher?) ... and the funny thing ... when I was reading the part about Harry breaking up with Ginny, reminds me of superman and spiderman and their loved ones ... too clinched i think.

and about D dying, couldn't they have use the "going back" in time thingy they did previously?

i ... hate ... bugs!

yes you guessed it, my plants are again INFESTED ... this time round it's such a painful battle ... my plants are literally crawling with mealy bugs, and my kalanchoe with an unknown spidery bugs ...

I've already Vodka-ed my AVs, in hope of the bugs dying, but it's reproduction is AMAZING ... so i've resorted to my last hopes ... POISON ... horrible isn't it? I have to poison my own plants in order to poison the %*(^&(# bugs ... i've just done the deed, and it's suppose to effective sometime only after 1 month ... so i can only cross my fingers and hope my plants survived till then ...

so meanwhile i've thrown away my bug infested soil containers (2) as well 3 plants (one AF and two kalanchoe) and i hope i don't have to throw more away ... i'll be upset since it means i will be having less plants around. Hmmm then again it may mean i will have chance to experiment new plants hehe ... my cyclamen is doing pretty well with minimal care so it's good =) it was quite scary after reading all those postings on the plant so i guess my spot for it must be perfect ... just hope no more bugs ...

oh and one of my hydrangea died as well ... i dunno why but the leaves started turned brown and wilting awat ... and it's the plant i thought will do well, since it was sprouting off new branches ... how wrong I was ... because the other plant is actually FLOWERING! I'll post can post a picture of the flowers next week, since it's still budding ....

just hope for me no more bugs ok! and my poison will keep my poor plants bug free for 6 months ...

first wedding anniversary!

ok we didn't do much *chuckle* to be exact, he went home to have dinner with his family, and I went for my cooking class ...

Duh? Haha not really ...

Because we went to Bintan on Sunday, and just returned this afternoon ...

It's a short trip but we got sunburnt and it costs a bomb for the food (not fantastic too) and massage (i know of better and cheaper massages in Singapore) ... and we have loads of work to do (see how responsible we are).

So just a picture for you to enjoy ...




Ya I was wearing a bikini (under the sarong wrap). No i didn't lose "that" tummy of mine ... I'm nearing to 60kg now so it should be "broader" than what was expose during the Turkish folkdance we did at the wedding dinner. The wonders of being married, heck with my fats, I'm proud of my "womanly" figure!
