Dear Diary,
A very exciting and busy month has passed by.... another surreal situation. The brand new year has already crossed its 2nd month mark, and today is leap year Monday. Let's see what has transpired during this month...
First of all, Lunar New Year - being a joyous occasion for feasting, family gatherings, fun and relaxation. I also took the chance to drop by the River Ang Pao bazaar for extra atmosphere. It is ironic how we spent weeks just to prepare for a couple of days' festivities.
Then there was Valentine's Day, where we enjoyed a simple poolside dinner, marking the last V-day we'll both be single. There are so many sentiments to this day - lovers find it sweet, singles hate it or are non-chalant, and friends celebrate love of friendship.
What else took place is the intensity of wedding preparation - been meeting groups of friends to give out the wedding invites and mailing out the others. Gown fitting and purchase of some items have been settled as well. I think we have paced each other pretty well.
Other than that, new collaborations have been formed for the side business, and new friends have been made. I am excited at the new possibilities that lie ahead.
Cafes and restaurants have been cut down on, but lounging over a drink or two still continue. The writings have been more consistent. I also discovered some good skincare products. Oh, and it was International Polar Bears Day over the weekend and it was time to adopt my very own polar bear.
To end off a good month, here's the tastings for the month (reducing significantly over the months as I switch directions):
(i) Tasting at New Fut Kai Vegetarian Restaurant
(ii) CNY Buffet at The Square @ Novotel Clarke Quay
(iii) Valentine's Dinner at The Carvery @ Park Hotel Alexandra
(iv) Tasting at Jim Thompson Thai Restaurant @ Dempsey
