Shape Run and Tim Ho Wan

What have you been up to in the last week of October? Well, I...

Ran the Shape Run. It was postponed from July to October because of the haze back then. This is my second 10KM of the year and the first was so many months back! 10KM without stopping! Timing is about 1 HR 22 MIN - Well done! :P

Then PY and I decided to try our luck at Tim Ho Wan after the run. Reached before 9am and we got seated in about 10 minutes. So go early if you don't want to queue :) Finally tried the vermicelli roll with pork liver - quite interesting. Try if you are in for something different :)
Come to think of it, it's funny because I went to Tim Ho Wan just last month (read about my first visit!). Fulfilling the prophecy that I keep doing the same things in the same period. Haha

BKK

 
Been quiet in October because I was out of town for a few days.
And partly because I have been trying to stay home at least one of the weekends.
Go read about my Bangkok trip in http://ilovelongvacation.wordpress.com/ :)

Hello from Bangkok!

Selfie at Wat Arun :)

And a video taken while climbing the prang (spire)!


Been struggling to be productive at work though - suffering from post holidays syndrome, I guess :P

Oriole Cafe @ Pan Pacific Service Suites

It's been a while since my last post. Nothing worth blogging about, I guess. LOL.
Until Ali's birthday (belated) celebration last Sun at Oriole Café. Thought it's not as crowded as it was before, probably because there are so many coffee places sprouting up island-wide! But still nice. And nicer, because it is not so crowded. Haha.


Thought I will try the competition coffee - Citrus Sin! Quite interesting - imagine coffee and orange. Bitter-sweet. And strong.


And our various choices for breakfast! we all used to be so excited about big breakfast but now... the fad seems to have faded. So I ordered French toast with bacon (top)!




Sharing the basket of fish and chips which I like! :) Not the usual brunch, I reckon.

So happy belated birthday - and we know the birthday girl is happy! Because it was preparations for her wedding after brunch where we gathered at the groom's place to go through the programme - amazing how much efforts people put into their wedding preparations these days. Well, it's (one of) the biggest events of a lifetime, I guess :) And the 'sisters' also discussed our plans to test the love of the groom (and his brothers) for gate-crashing. Haha. We'll see how things turn out. Till that post! Cheers! :)
