Valentine's D♥uble Date

immediately reached home from Alor Star...

prepared up for ♥ Valentine's Date ♥

Dear had actually booked a table at Victoria's Station...

but then we changed our mind to have a double date with NingChao & KeeWynn

at The Ship's, Batu Ferrighi...

again, it was drizzling dat day...

so the traffic was kind of slow...

and it was also my fault since i was rushing...

we only reached around 7.30...

soooo sry to keep the couple waiting for us...

>,<

but thank god too that they reached earlier...

or else we would had stucked on the long que!

alright, just let the pictures do the talking!

**winkwink**

yup, no joking.

even till that late stil people willing to que.

haha!

headed to Island Plaza for Tutti Fruitti then...

saw it everywhere in KL actually...

but never tried it b4...

FYI, im not a fan of yogurt and dairy product..

=P

but since everyone is like making big hu-ha about it....

so must go and try!

[ Eu are my cup of frozen yogurt! ]

i quite like it...

sweet with traces of sourness...

but dear prefers SnowFlakes wor...

and guess who i bumped into over there?

[ Ah Laine & WenLin ]

Thanks for the dinner and everythg!

Though we always drive each other mad,

Though thr's times we dun really see eye to eye,

still remember, ILY.

Penang Cny Cultural & Heritage Celebration

on the day i was i back after exam itself,

it was the annually held Penang CNY Cultural & Heritage Celebration!

a.k.a. 庙会.

*click here to know more bout it *

so we went over after dear's church practice..

i'd been there for a few times with my family..

but it's the 1st time to go wif Mr BoyF...

=))

out of our expectation, the traffic wasnt as bad as we thought it would be...

most probably due to the bad weather...

believe or not, it started to rain once we stepped off the car..

>,<

so din get to walk through all exhibition zones...

and not many pictures taken...

but stil, it dint stop us from enjoying this special date

=)

it rain was getting heavier that Dear took off his outer shirt and wrapped it on me...

*shy*

=P

and fed our stomach with some mouth-watering snacks..

[ the aroma of this chicken loh bak is simply irresistable! ]

♥ of Chinese New Year

so it was Chinese New Year!

A perfect timing when everyone would just drop anythg in hand and enjoy this special festival with their beloved one

- family & friends -

=)

Well, this year's CNY is just a short one for me.

sad case.

it was my study week and i had exam on the 5th day.

so i only gave myself a 2 day leave from studying.

pathetic right?

BUT still, enjoyed alot!

=))

as for Reunion Dinner,

stil we stick to tradition and had steamboat at home...

helped up mummy and makcik in the kitchen ...

and guess what?

we discovered this GIGANTIC ONION mummy bought..

[ xuan posing with the onion ]

[Some of the ingredients for steamboat.]

early in the morning of the 1st day,

went over to Dear's place to pai ni.

and attached along, paying visit around.

=)

[ Say Happy Bunny Year! ]

it was his turn to come over my side then in the evening.

*hehe*

visited Chek Gong's house after having dinner...

it has been an unwritten rule that my whole big family would gather over there every year..

so eu wil see more than 70 pairs of shoes scattered at Chek Gong's doorstep.

HAHAHA!

well, this is the fun part of having a big family.

=)))

i was not drunk, but fallen aslp for like 30 mins?

im seriously not good in drinking..

HAHAHAHA!

>,<

and we did had a great time baby-sitting the kids too!

dear got his 1st experience in carrying a baby..

and i could see the "father-ness" in him!

he was like keep look at the kid, smilling, saying "SO CUTE!"

*should had taken his pic that time*

HAHAHA!
