Labouring on May 1st

Labouring this post for you guys I mean. Haha.

So I slept in today which was great =D However, I could have slept in a bit more if it were not for the fact that the neighbours were a tad bit noisy this morning.

Can't blame them. There's Been A Death At The House Next Door. The grandma lost her battle to cancer. She was always the nicest one among the lot. =(

Anyway, pictures! I shall start with the uneventful birthday day that I had. Yes, it was super uneventful cos I did nothing at all and had no celebrations whatsoever except for a belated one on Monday.

The maternal cousins treated me to ice-cream the day before my birthday. I was given a choice between ice-cream and cake so I chose the former after some thought.



I suggested we shared the jumbo bowl which entitled us to 5 different flavours. I think the mango and blueberry cheesecake one was good. So was the cookies and cream one. Yum.



A photo before leaving. I'm sure everyone knows where we went for ice-cream.

Anyway, thanks a lot. =D

Received 2 cakes as well. Both of it were cheesecakes. Like that how not to get fat, right?



Cheesecake baked by Jessica's mom which was really yummy.




Cheesecake with strawberry wine by the baking queen aunt. It was absolutely scrumptious. Fattening, but very good. =)



Also, I received 2 presents from the group of people above.



A recipe book! Am yet to try out the recipes in the book.



A set of towels from Aussino.

Thanks a lot, guys. =D

On Monday, we had my belated birthday dinner. Unable to think of anything I was craving for at that time, I settled for the new Italiano pizza from Pizza Hut and some KFC chicken and condiments.


The Italiano pizza. Quite good.

KFC hot and spicy chicken.

Condiments and soft drinks.

Overall view.

Must start being serious about losing weight (AGAIN!).

Oo. Got tagged by Bel. I guess I shall do that now. It's a pretty interesting tag, I reckon.

Would you go out with you? State the reasons why you would, and why you wouldn't, and then come to a conclusion at the end.

Nah. Interesting le.

Let me think, would I go out with me? Of course! I'm lovable. Aren't I? *cough*cough*


Why I would go out with me?

• I'm a pretty good listener. I'll listen to you talk, no matter how boring the topic is, and try to understand. I know when to shut up and when to speak. I guess.
• I'd tell you lame things and other randoms and try to make you feel comfortable around me. I like to think that I have a sense of humour. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't.
• I am simple. If you're looking for those let's-break-up-today-and-have-major-fights-and-patch-things-up-and-repeat-cycle-again type of relationship, you'll definitely not get it out of me. I'm just not the type.
• I can bake. See, I can make sure you are well fed with home-baked goods. Caring or not?
• I know when to give you space. People won't like it if I keep shoving my face in their way. Also, I'd like to have some quiet time myself sometimes.
• I'm not extravagant or rich. Hence, I do not need a rich guy to impress me. As long as I have a good time with that person, it can be in a tiny cave or an old kopitiam. Hey, at least we're getting some closure. I still hate forests and jungles so yes, as long as we don't go there. Hoho.
• I don't judge people by their appearance. Okay, everyone does give into the temptation of oogling at hot guys once in a while *Ryan Higa!* but I guess average joes appeal to me more, relationship wise, you know you know? I guess they seem like the type that have more going on inside, which makes it interesting.

Okay. Next next.

Why I would not go out with me?

• I have a pretty bad temper sometimes. When those temper waves come, the slightest thing will irritate the daylights out of me and I will nag and nag and nag till the cows come home.
• I have those I-feel-fat-days which also contributes to the mood swings.
• I guess I would worry that other more attractive girls would steal away my would-be boyfriend since I don't find myself appealing at all. I have a weird chubby body and I seem to look like a kid, no matter what, I look super fat in photos sometimes, does not have super high fashion sense and somehow, I always feel a teensy bit tomboyish even though I am wearing feminine clothes. And you know la, the temptations out there. Hmmph. The outcome? A thorough Q & A which would drive anyone crazy.
• I don't like people holding secrets from me, especially if it is the person I am going out with. So, I would like to have an open relationship and would seriously kill him if I found out any secrets he has kept from me. Aside from good surprises (birthday present, etc etc), I do want to know everything about someone. So if I were to find out something that the person has done behind my back, vengeance will be mine. So horrible hor?
• Not able to express feelings well sometimes. I guess it would be a little hard for me to express my feelings physically and all because it's not very me. Aside from happy, sad and angry, those romantic-romantic expressions are still new to me which makes expressing them hard. I guess time will deal with that.

Conclusion?
I'd still date me cos I have more good points than bad. Haha! Nah, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder and everyone is special in their own way. I am special. Yes I am. And I will want to be special to the right person at the right time. Let's hope that the right person is not one to judge the physical appearance.

I tag: Kristy, Aizzat, Daphne and Fiona. Do please.

It was pretty fun. =D

Shall be showing the Marina Bay trip pics in the next post. Till then.
