Met BUDD (weiqi) for dinner @Izakaya MOF. Caught up lots regarding her work situation and about her colleagues. Afterwhich we window shopped throughout the night at Daiso, Uniqlo, Muji and ended of the night at Isetan, where I bought a maple walnut bread? from Asanoya Bakery ♥ We had so many things that we wanted to get at Daiso but didn't >ɷ<

Had dinner with my mom, oldest sis and brother at Giant. While eating I was just checking Instgram and saw that my cousins had a feast with their mom and their maternal aunt & cousins. And so coincidentally, we met them at Giant! Just my cousins and their parents. One of them approached me while I was sniffing out hand soaps *such an embarassment* And he had to shove that in my face too by calling me, "eh aunty" -.- lol
23 DEC
Had dinner with xinyun @Tonkichi, Orchard Central, where we quite like the atmosphere, but not so much of the food '-' Afterwhich we headed to one of the bars opposite Orchard Central for some beer. No kidding, but this is the third time I've tried beer (my first two times were with weiqi, xinlin, yinghui & seraph; and weiqi & xinlin respectively) The two of us downed 3 bottles of heineken, which was not to my liking. I think I prefer foreign beer >v<
24 DEC BIG BANG attends Radio Star!
30 DEC
Hehe, finally met up with xinlin and weiqi and had dinner in this random bar @Fourplay, Katong. Weiqi and I had fish&chips which were on offer for the day while xinlin tried their burgers. Their beer was not bad, we had five bottles of an assortment of Tennent, Tennent stout and Hever Lee white, of which I like the latter. Afterwhich, we had vegan ice cream for desserts from Brownice. As we felt that the night was still young, we headed over to Teo Heng, Katong Shopping Complex. However, we only managed to sing 2 songs for free before we had to change our plans. To end off the night, we cabbed down to town and settled with an hour of Lan, left 4 dead 2 @POMO (>▲<)
Loved the two main characters since the start of episode one. And it isn't any cliche love story which starts out from love at first sight or cause of fate. This plot is much closer to reality and much closer to the heart.
Firstly, the two characters met by fate as they were childhood friends, but they decided to stay that way. As friends, they've helped each other overcome crush, exgirlfriend, fear of competitions, and simply enjoyed each other's company ♥ ♥ ♥
Secondly, it is heartwarming as the friends fall for each other, and it probably reminds some of us of our past, those friendships which manifested into a relationship. The fact that they weren't even each other's ideal type, but they fell for each other's true self, past their surface.
The male lead told his best buddy that he loved the female lead cause she's "sexy" in his eyes, he fell for her strength, her straight forwardness and her fragile side when it comes to love ᵕᴗᵕ
OMG, i can't~ The first few episodes had so much going on! And for this drama to cast both gong yoo and lee dong wook ♥ᴥ♥
I love the storyline, and the bickerings of the "goblin" and the "grim reaper", and there are characters left to be introduced to, which leaves me curious to know how the others will come into the story.
Love the chemistry of all the actors and actresses, including all the supporting casts! Watched a few behind the scenes and every one of them opened up real quickly to one another ♥
And of course love love loving the scenes where the "goblin" gets troubled over the female character, worrying how he would look in front of her whenever she summons him and regretting it when he hurt her with his words ᵕᴗᵕ ♥ ♥ ♥
Kudos to kim go eun for fitting so well into any role, loved her in cheese in the trap and loving her high school cuteness in Goblin
Also, gong yoo and lee dong wook looked so dashing at the end of episode 2!!! As they catwalk down the road while the OST plays in the background (>▲<) #heroessavingtheday #damselindistress #stillstronglyetchedinmymind
I am basking in happiness recently with all the ongoing dramas. This one, this one is a romantic comedy with two perfect lead casts; their looks wise and their touch of humor that they bring into the drama. Also love how you can totally overlook that fact that the female lead is a mermaid, because her naivety actually adds many hilarious scenes into the drama. And not to mention, I'm falling more and more each episode, for lee min ho~ His smirks, his astounded reactions and his warm smile when he looks at her ♥ᴗ♥
Tazza 2: The Hidden Card
Watched Tazza 2 today with my mom ᵕᴗᵕ Cause I suddenly recalled that I have yet to watch this film, in which choi seung hyun (TOP) acted in!! Love how realistically the film portrayed those living a life of gambling and deception usually comes into play. The characters in the film face a fear of who they can really trust, and more often than so, it's the least expected people who betrays them. But then again, the main character do come across a kind samaritan who offers a hand when he fell to the shallows. There are also characters like the female lead's brother, who is always there to protect and support her, even putting her life before his own. AKA family~
Day by day, I feel more like an adult, though not a very perfect one. I still am lazy and confused with bills and of course I fumble around the features of an AXS machine. I still don't really reject people when needed to (boundaries) and I just can't wear on that stoic face, especially when frustrated or upset.
It is as though a B grade student in school can never do as well in society as compared to an A grade student who just plunges into life with just their confidence and their degree. Though they not necessarily are people with very high emotional quotient. Me being judgmental or not, it is usually the case based on my own EQ ¬ᴗ¬
Anyway, the only times when I can put down the facade, that I have tons of responsibilities, is when I'm with my true friends and my family. Definition of true friends: people who dont give a fck about how I present myself and how I am on the outside, cause they know me on the inside ♥ᴥ♥
Felt tempted to watch this Jap movie, although I've read reviews that it is more of an indie film, which some parts we may not understand. But because of this not bad fan-made drama, I wanna start on it :)
Getting more and more addicted to "Girlfriend", although it has some similarities with one of Kanye West song... But I just can't get enough of TOP's singing for the second stanza ♥o♥
REGINA SPEKTOR - WHILE MY GUITAR GENTLY WEEPS (KUBO OST)
AKMU - MELTED
SLEEPING AT LAST - SATURN
URBAN ZAKAPA - I DON'T LOVE YOU
Please dont curse me when you realise that my post doesn't have a single Big Bang video despite the picture. Just wanted to get your attention that Big Bang has released their final songs for their MADE album!
And the first song above is an OST of a movie "Kubo and the Two Strings" which my mom and I watched together (we are practically movie buddies).
A really meaningful storyline behind the cartoon, which my mom wasn't interested in at first (she was fiddling with her mobile), and commented "not bad for a cartoon" at the end of it.
The OST caught me by surprise, at the ending credits, cause it was a cover of one of my favourite oldies (i have quite a lot of favourite oldies). Sounds different but feels the same as the original Beatles' one.
The second song is just one of my favourite songs from AKMU and it just popped up on my playlist today.
