An Artistic Birthday


My favourite duckie aka the clique's Ling Jie turned 25 yesterday!!
(Just posted it and it's way past midnight; her birthday was 2 days ago on the 6th!)



My camera will always have plenty of her pictures when we hang out, and since it's her birthday, I shall let her have the honour of appearing multiple times in this entry today~ lol.


Same same, but different.
Which side do you like better?



Wild Honey always give off this very comfortable feeling - like a home with the decorations, sofas and pillows!


There, many sides of our funny blur friend. Lol.
She's "傻大姐" on my phone contact. hehe.


@Wild Honey X!

Since I had planned for today's activity to be painting at Arteastiq, I thought we could also settle our brunch there. But, we went without a reservation and it was so crazy packed! Waited for a while before we decided to check out another place to eat. Pity!! We were too hungry.

But Wild Honey is good - Haven't check out the place in the longest time (last time was in 2014, wow)!!!



Brought her to Arteastiq (X) because it is something out of our usual. I've been trying to exhaust as many things to do here aside from just eating and chilling. :D Today was slightly way out of our usual and comfort zone because we are not artistic or creative. hahaha.

It was a nice time just staring into blank for me!


Blank white canvas. Lol.

SO NOT AN ARTIST!!!
I had so many ideas I would like to translate into this white canvas............. Googled so many images for reference, but I just couldn't pencil what I wanted. :( I drew a few things, but erased them all because they looked weird. Size was not proportional.

In the end, I drew what I draw best.................... And it wasn't even straight!!!!


Kesslyn and her flower.


&Here's my heart. The shape I like the most.

A slight problem we have with these painting session is.... Though it kindda is therapeutic, we actually don't know where to keep or whom to give our paintings!! Lol. I certainly did not want to keep it as a white elephant. So since my Dad's birthday was near, I am keeping it for him as a surprise. Teehee!

After a stressful 3 hours (felt like double the time); it actually took quite a while because we had to wait for the paint to dry - for me my base background before I can paint the heart.... Yes, I painted the entire canvas black and blue first because I kindda gave up. LOL. Then I draw the heart over it. When we were finally done with the painting, we also had to wait for it to dry a little more before they could pack it for us to bring back home.


Anyway, as I was saying..... after our session, we met up with Jiaxuan for dinner!

She wasn't interested in painting, otherwise it would have been a great time together. Boohoo.

Dinner was at a place Jiaxuan recommended because it was affordable good food, and someone she know works there. More discounts!!!



Shared these and a bowl of soup!
I cannot remember what is the name of the restaurant. X:
But it is located near.... Never mind, I really can't remember.








A free cake from the restaurant too!
Perks of knowing someone who works there. HEHE.

&That was our night. ♥

Dinner with Mei Hua

Hihihi! Just back from a dinner with 梅花 and here's a quick update because I feel like blogging today. Hehehe. Last met this girl 3 months ago and there we were again. In just 3 months, this girl has changed into someone with a nightlife. Lol. Can't say I am envious anymore because I now actually feel old and get tired when it's nearing midnight! Especially on a worknight. /fail

Anyway! Just in time to satisfy my Lychee Tea cravings, we had dinner at Arteastiq X! This time at their newer outlet in Plaza Singapura. So much more conveniently located now... For me who is lazy to change the train line. :X

Won't say it's the best dinner place. The food portion for our main dishes was lacking and the taste was a little bit off. Too small a portion for the price paid and the food too salty! It's okay though, because we shared Sweet Potato Fries and I had my Lychee Tea!!!!!! ^^

This was it for me. 6 small pieces. The sweet potato rosti was kindda tasteless too. Salty, but tasteless.

HEHEHEHEHE. I really like their Lychee Tea beceause it's very nicely balanced and not too overly sweet.
But I found somewhere with Lychee Tea that's better. :X The cafe is just a little too difficult to get to. Meh.

Till next time!!!!! ^^

ps: I hope there won't be more drastic changes in your life then huh!

So Arteastiq ;)

 photo P1370352_zps48ocm60o.jpg

A Saturday feeling 'arteastiq'. Except, I only experienced (drinking) the 'tea' part and didn't do anything particularly 'artistic'. /lame Lol.

Finally visited Arteastiq Boutique Tea House X today for some food and chilling! Tried their brunch and Lychee Tea! Super yums!! Have been wanting to check out the place for a while now, but never got the time, chance or people to go there with.

Happy to be celebrating my birthday there (freee meal!), with Shamyn (plus pretty friend!) this first time. xD It was a good afternoon out doing the usual with Shamyn. Chilling, catching up, eating and camwhoring. Mostly camwhoring, as usual with this girl. Lol.

Finally eating!

There was a queue, so we waited approximately 30 minutes? Before we got the call that a table was ready for us. :)

LYCHEE TEA!!!
My sister used to randomly crave for their lychee tea, raving how nice it is. NOW THAT I'VE TRIED IT, I AGREE TOO! One of the better Lychee Teas I've tasted so far.

Fooooood!!

Crabcake Benedict.
Something different from the usual, but I got a little sick of it at the end.

 photo P1370386_zpscwwtwrxf.jpg
Hm... I cannot remember what is this. LOL.
But I liked it! I super love sweet potato fries too! :D

All these angle-finding-to-take-a-nice-shot-of-the-food took so long, I was famished!

 photo P1370408_zpsuuo6xhya.jpg
When I finally get to taste the Lychee Tea!! :D

 photo P1370409_zps01xpu7zv.jpg
I'm so craving for it right now. xD

After brunch, we did a little shopping and then decide on our next date to meet! :D I like how we're going about with this 'system' now. Meeting once every 3 months, and picking a date together after each time we meet. Makes it less likely for us to just... not meet. heh. It's so easy to be caught up with our own lives and drift apart from friends. This new 'system' help us to book a slot on our calendars and... be 'obliged'(?) to meet. Lol.

See you in June! :D

Certainly won't mind going back to Arteastiq again! And maybe... Just maybe, I'll try drawing next time. :3
