Major Photo-heavy Post

So I've grown a year older, but it feels like i've aged ten years since last May. Yes, the dreaded aging syndrome has finally hit me. And its taking a toil on my skin - acne scars, eye bags and wrinkles popping up. I'm desperate for an immediate solution.

Birthday was spent with my loved ones - family & friends. Truly appreciate their efforts, thank you. =)

Qx took time out to celebrate birthday with me over lunch.

We went for my favourite cuisine - Italian food. Had a hard time deciding on the restaurant after reading mixed reviews, chose Pasta Fresca in the end cause they sent me a $10 voucher for my birthday. Haha, save some money.

After an ardous hour of maneouvring among the confusing roads along East Coast, we finally found the place. Poor Qx had to make many U-turns due to my wrong directions.

Ambience was good with warm teak furnishing and cosy lightings. We felt like we were dining at Italy itself.

We decided on a set lunch with soup, main and desserts and added on some sides.

Broccoli soup & garlic bread. Not a fan of veggie soup but this one surprised me. Didn't have any overbearing veggie taste.

Freshly home-made plain breadsticks served wrapped in parma ham slices. We wanted Parma Ham with Rock Melon but the restaurant didn't have rock melon on that day! What luck.

For mains, we ordered pasta, thinking that pasta must be their forte since they are named "Pasta Fresca", but oh well, it was disappointing. He had seafood pasta consisting of prawns, squids, clams and mussels cooked in tomato sauce. I had crab meat, fried garlic flambe in white wine in tomato sauce. The pasta was under-cooked and it was torturous chewing the spaghetti. They were generous with the portions though and the sauce was quite tasty. But well, I'd rather have a Pastamania. =(

Nomming.

Since we were at the East side, I took the opportunity to get my favourite KOI bubble milk tea. Ordered large size to share and it was gigantic.

Met the OS girls on Sunday the same week for another lunch. This time at Everything with Fries, Holland Village. The food was real delicious and portions were big. We were already stuffed halfway through.

Ice cream for dessert at a cute little ice-cream parlour along Chip Bee gardens. Yummy.

Saw this advertisement on tv recently and it got me lemming for this fitness equipment - Ab Circle Pro! Seems really good and I wouldn't mind flatter, tonned abs & thighs myself. So this guy (who is very special to me and not yet mentioned in this entire entry) offered to make a trip down to OG which was having a super sales and I managed to get it at a special price. Can't wait for it to arrive at my doorsteps next week!

Lunch with him at V8 after.

After a satiating lunch, went to Zara to choose a basic v-neck tee for him to match his blazer for an upcoming dinner. Then popped over to New York Skin Solutions for a trial facial treatment, which sucked. My face had an allery reaction from their intensive 'rich' products used. They are the worst out of all the facial places I've been to. Not going back there again!

Hotel Re! - a boutique hotel with chic modernistic layouts. Not really my type though. Prefer warm cosy rooms.
