Weekly life update: 12th to 18th February 2018 – 10th year anniversary, Valentine’s Day and Chinese New Year!

Welcome to my CNY week. 😀

We are also heading to Seoul on Monday so remember to follow me on IG at claireaudreylim to see where I go via IGstories.

I am finally going to Korea hahahhaha. Cant wait to ski! I also got my first timberland boots and it costs me $299, so expensive! The sales associate asked if I want to get a protective spray for my boots, I think it costs around $25-$29. Lucky I never, because Simon managed to get a cheaper spray for me from Kim Able.

So here you go for this week’s updates. 🙂

Monday.

Work day. Nothing much happened. Was pretty distracted cos holiday feel damn strong.

Had yong tau foo for lunch. No noodles nor rice.

My craving kicks in again. I think I’m pmsing again zzz. Decided to try the guan yin cheese tea from Liho and I really don’t like it. This made me miss the cheese tea from Partea!!

Today I went home in the evening to find some stuffs and my ahma stared at me when I told her where Im going hahaha. Well whats new right.

I took grab and the return trip cost me 20 bucks. Money fly away again. T.T

I snacked on love letters when I was at Ahma’s house. I thought this was nice but she don’t think so. Initially I wanted to buy the slim love letters from Olive Bakery but I was late so nothing for me. All sold out already. :/

TODAY IS ALSO OUR 10TH YEAR ANNIVERSARY! 

My husband is sick and his eyes is suffering from some condition, I shall wait for his checkup before sharing with you all. 

Amazing isn’t it. 10 years already. <3 Thank you Simone for loving and taking care of me. 😀

I also wanna thank you all for your wishes, I know some of you have been following me since I was 20 years old, that was WHAT? 8 years ago? Super thankful. 🙂 

We didn’t go out for fancy dinner or whatever. Just stay home and spend time together. 

Tuesday 

Had porridge for lunch today. I love to eat porridge with chopsticks. Am I weird?

I was on half day morning leave today and in the afternoon we talked in the office. So we were just talking about our younger times and I shared about how crazy I was into dieting last time. I went to dig out my old photo and thought I was so skinny back then. Limiting myself to 500-800 calories a day, and only eating vegetables. My senior said I should thank god that I am still alive now. 

I thank god everyday for giving what I have now. You have no idea how thankful I am actually. 

For dinner I had caifan, and I went to buy chilli cuttlefish from Sheng Shiong. wahhaha it was so crispy and shiok lor. I finish the whole packet myself.

Later that night, I went to take photos of the following products. The red cleansing pad is damn good I tell you. You should try it! 

And my daily reminder today. 

Wednesday. Is it Valentine’s Day today? 

I am on time off today. Going to leave office at 430pm. Not to celebrate valentine’s day but to remove my fake eyelashes and to change money at Raffles Place.

I don’t suit extensions because I have really itchy hands.

In the morning one of my followers tag me on instagram. OMG she finally received my present. She is one of my supporters from Philippines. She is really supportive and cute!!

I sent her a small christmas gift and it took 2 months to reach her. omg singpost. I am so glad she liked the present. 🙂

I am really thankful that you guys are so supportive. And I really like to talk to you all. <3 

For lunch I had fish soup from this usual stall at Whampoa Market. I like the soup alot. 

I told Simon I would like to have a meat bouquet next valentine’s day. A DIY one because if you don’t make yourself you have to pay $60 to $70 to ask other people make for you.

This bouquet also not bad lah. Got wings and waffle! 

Guess what? We didn’t plan anything for valentine’s day because we were so busy recently. But I suddenly got the feel to eat out.

I called Prive in the afternoon and almost booked us at Empress. Only after I go and research what is Empress then I know it’s actually chinese food. LOL. I nearly faint please.

Anyway I cancelled the reservation and we randomly just walked into Brotzeit that evening. 

I’ve been wanting to try their pork knuckle since forever and I’m glad we finally tried it!

And yes I am a timberland member now. 

The skin and meat really damn shiok!!! Toothache also worth it man.

That night I finally shared about the Halfmoon eyes pink fruity wash off pack with you guys. Go and read my review on my instagram. I seriously love this alot!

And here’s the present!! Actually we are not supposed to buy anything but he surprised me again! I love this practical present. I think it is about $176 at Sephora?? I would have bought it last year without thinking but this year after having a financial advisor, I am controlling alot now. I can spend la actually but the more money you have the better right??

Simon knows I wouldn’t get it so he got it for me. 🙂 Me loves chloe!

And thank you b for the baby breath. 😀

Supposed to go in laws place in the morning but we woke up late so we spent the whole day at ahma’s house. 

Late breakfast at toast box. The floss toast and eggs so damn shiok!

The drumlets and hawaiian pizza are good! 

then our friends came over to our place for gambling session in the evening! I won about $100+ last year and they are determined to ‘kill’ me this year.

William Chua is a bartender from Hawaii. LOL!!! 

He mixed Ribena and Gin??

We had kuek lapis and bak kwas too! Thank you fragrance for the bak kwas! hehe. 

Actually I hate alcohol. I prefer asahi or tiger radler beer. I like the lemon flavour one. I haven’t tried the ginger and lime flavour but they said not very nice leh..

And if you’re wondering.. Actually I won $78 this year hahaha. Damn funny lor. Hanwen, Kiangmeng and William place their bets with me so they could earn money also. And I told them I only open 2 slots. HAHAHA.

from my igstory: claireaudreylim 

Oh ya I also want to complain about comfort. I booked a cab using comfort delgro app yesterday from my house to Hougang. When I received the call from the operator I was already in the lift. When I reached the first level, I got another call telling me the driver has left. WALAO U KNOW I EVEN CALL THE DRIVER AND HE REFUSED TO PICK UP MY CALL. I am so angry lor. I always support comfort delgro so I am really disappointed. -_- 

But the fare is good la. During peak hours grab fares always shoot up but comfort is always consistent. sigh.. 

Sunday 

Nothing much. Edit videos, work and blog. That’s pretty much my sunday. 🙂
Crossing my fingers, hope to hear some good news when I’m back next Sunday. 

Till next week. 🙂
