10 Years Strong

29 March 2018 marks the 10 years journey of Stanley's and my relationship together.

A milestone which is worth a celebration, having been through so much ups and down together. 

So we pamper ourselves to a nice couple meal at Bedrock and a good family staycation at Village Hotel Bugis. 

Photos from Bedrock and our date! 

Yummy triple chocolate puffs

Complementary dessert for our celebration! 
Thank you Bedrock! 

The open kitchen! 


This is super delicious! 


Dry Aged Beef! 


the legendary mac and cheese! 

no date is complete without a movie! 

The date was great! and we are thankful for my mum for the time alone, as she help us watch Sharize! 

But the staycation at Village Bugis was not so great. We booked the club room and requested a cot for the baby. Check-in and was told that the club lounge area do not allow baby and because of that we can use the club facilities if the baby is with us and they suggest we take turns to be there. I was shock! 

I would have rather they informed me earlier then i will change to a normal room or change to another hotel. They should have know i got a baby as i request for a bed and stated it in my request i have a baby. What is the point of going for a family staycation when i have to spend time alone with the kids and time alone in the lounge? 

Basically long story short, then end up making it up to us after our post staycation feedback and the manager invited us back for a buffet dinner. I would say this part of the service kinda save them cause else i would really blacklist them from my staycation list forever. But good job Village Bugis you saved yourself! 

We been to other Village Hotel and saw kids in the other Village Hotel lounge before. so did not know why the bugis one dont allowed. 

Anyway, photo from our Staycation! 

Always a staycation baby! 







Breakfast with mummy! 


Man Man Unagi Lunch! 

Anyway, 10 years is neither long nor short but we wish and pray for many more 10 years to come together! 

Choose love always!

Quincy Staycation 2017

As an educator, I get 3 break away from work each year. For each of the break I always think that it is essential for me to break away because very much of being an educator means that my brain never stop thinking about work and it never stop worrying for my students. Therefore, being away helps me stay abreast and refresh my mind and mental well-being so that it helps me work better when i return. 

So on holidays that I don't fly or leave Singapore, I will make a point to head off for a staycation as well. 

Staycation is great as we hardly visit much places in Singapore as our fast-pace lifestyle makes us very much heartland bounded. Therefore, being away for Satycation allows us to be tourist in our own country. 

Thus, this time round, we stayed at Quincy Hotel by Far East Hospitality. A club style hotel with all day refreshment and weekend fun! 

Here are some photos of our stay! 


Checking-in - Retro Baby

Love the huge giant bed 

After checking-in and settling down, off we go for some shopping and walking around!! 

Daddy very kindly offered to baby-wear Sharize! =) 

Daddy and baby Sharize! 

Back for some late afternoon swim and dip in the pool! Just keep swimming! 

Swimming baby

Ending our swim so that we are in-time for the evening cocktail 


Enjoying the sunset 



Evening cocktail means free alcohol!!! 

After a long day it is time for baby to slp! 

Breakfast the next day

2D1N end in a flash, it was a nice stay and we all did enjoy this little break away very much. Definitely a nice place for little family to stay in so we will definitely come back here again!! 

Till next time!!

Babymoon at Hotel Jen, Orchard Gateway

Usually we would travel during the school holiday, however, for this holiday we were unable to fly as I am already 30 weeks pregnant! Most airline do not allow us to fly once we are more than 30 weeks pregnant. Furthermore, I have already gotten the safe to travel letter from my ObGyn a few times, so this time round she did say I hope you are not flying again! Hahaha, so we decided to stay put in Singapore.

But what is a holiday without some fun? So we decided to have a babymoon staycation at Hotel Jen, Orchard Gateway! We have heard lots of good review about the hotel and therefore would like to see it ourselves!

We booked the CLUB ROOM as we wanted a fuss free staycation! So upon arrival, we headed to the club lounge for check-in!

Club Lounge

They serve mini hi-tea and snack all day long! 

Stanley carrying everything as he insist I can't carry anything. -_-

Got into our lovely room! 

Very unique concept of toilet! 

Bay Bench for us to look outside! 

Nice Comfy Bed with many Pillows! 

The view from our room. 

Soccer on TV! 

 After we settle down, we headed out for lunch. Lunch was at The Sushi Bar @ Ngee Ann Civil Plaza aka Taka.


Wagu Beef Bowl! 

After lunch we walk around shopping and soaking in the Christmas Spirit. Love Christmas as it is the season of giving and endless shopping!  

After some shopping, we headed back for hi-tea! They serve evening cocktail and hi-tea which to me is like FREE Dinner! 


They have Sashimi free flow! 

After some food, I needed to rest, being preggie makes me super tired always so back to rest. 


After some rest, we decided to head out to view the Christmas lights! Christmas season in Orchard is Beautiful! All the lights and love and presents! 





We ended the day with supper from MacD and of cause Stanley have to watch Soccer!  

Love my man! 

The next day we wake up for breakfast. Hotel Jen is well known for great breakfast line up and we were really looking forward to it!  

Lots of food selections! 

Yummy yummy yum! 


After that, our good time at Hotel Jen was coming to an end, but not without heading up to see the pool deck! 

We will be back next time for us to use the pool!
