Nephew Day - Short Getaway - Christmas

I realized I've not been very active blogging these days, not because I am lazy to do so already but because I've been really busy with stuff that I just want to spend and enjoy my free time whenever possible.

My godson, Ayden is 1 month old! And yes, I have a human godson this time. Yay! He is so adorable and even more with his irresistible smiley dimple. Hearing baby stories about him from my twin really takes the troubles and wrinkles I got from work away. It's the baby-thing huh? I always enjoy listening to Babies stories. :)

Baby Ayden in his 2nd day in this world. Looking so contented and peaceful in his Daddy's arms.


Went out with J after the Baby shower to explore the new mall at Jurong East and the best thing that I could do for him that day was looking for a balloon (even asking strangers) that he kept ranting from the moment we stepped in the mall. It's amazing what you can do for a precious. Hah.

Justin smiling at the camera while waiting for the Mushroom Quiche. Cheeky.


When the PA asked for the leaves plan from the officers, I stared into my calendar for long and can only sadly reply her that I have no plans at that moment. Yes, I know I've been travelling much during mid-year and probably it's my turn to envy the others who are busy getting out of town.... BUT, I still can't say 'no' to even a short-getaway! Even a 2D1N (sounds ridiculous, but who cares?!) trip in Johor excites me!

KSL Hotel & Resort - A really affordable place to stay for the night after a whole day of walking and buys. That's TPL in the background shying away from the Camera. Huuuuu.


This Christmas is (yeah~) another public holiday to me. But I am really glad that I had a stay-home Christmas. A time for me to rejuvenate in my cozy nest. This Christmas, I made some hand-made gifts. For those who got it, hope you like it! Got quite a number of Christmas gifts, and even got myself one on Christmas Eve. Thanks to those who shared the joy this season!

Lovely cosmetic pouch from my colleague who got it from Taiwan. I am going to replace my Naraya cosmetic pouch with this!
Look at the prints inside the pouch!
A gift I got for myself at H&M. Only $7.90!

Handmade socks-man that I learn from a DIY site. Easy to make, but I'm so worried that the ornaments will fall when the glue wears off.

Merry Christmas! ❤

Latin Sunday!

So I met this colleague over an incident about a complex transaction, and miraculously we got to know more about each other. Knowing that both of us have a thing to do with dancing, he introduced me the dance school that he's currently in, Dance En Motion.

I didn't took much notice about this school as I don't really fancy Latin dance, though i enjoy looking at the moves. But, this fine day, I finally gave in to his constant "notice" about the classes and schedules and so, I signed up for the trial class package for Salsa, Bachata and Latin.

As the date got nearer, and of course, I've been doing my research about the moves, I got really excited.

The moment I stepped in the studio; sexy and professional students were dancing to the remix of Latin music, practicing their moves for the shooting at Marina Bay Sands later in the afternoon. I was dumbfounded. They look so elegant and beautiful. My excitement didn't help and I was practically bursting in cold sweat. I was so worried that I look dumb in front of the mirror.



But well, I got a little consolation when most of the participants are first-timers in dancing. So... a little confidence boost for me; at least I had some background in the many different forms of dance I used to learn.

End of the day, Bachata took me away. I had SO much fun in Bachata, partnering with awesome partners, learning and grooving away like nobody's business. Looking at myself in the mirror every now and then when I did the moves with my partner, I can't help but give a big pat on my shoulder, thinking "hey! you can dance fatso!".
