malicious thoughts: sheng ri // birthday

hi blogger-people/people who read my blog about my extremely boring life.
yesterday was my birthday but i wasnt really feeling the hype.... meh.
but still, thank you to everyone who wished me! (-:
my birthday kinda started on wednesday (9/10) cos i had family dinner and my family bought crabs! but sadly i didnt have appetite and i can't eat seafood yet so yeah ): meh. Then out came a birthday cake!!!!!!! :O :O actually i didn't know my family would celebrate my birthday cos i told them not to. Since my sister's birthday was next week, I thought it would be better to celebrate together on my sister's birthday instead. but i guess im a princess so...?????? HAHAH im kidding (-:

zhu wo sheng ri kuai le

after cutting the cake and all, my mum suddenly gave me a birthday present. in a box. I was really shocked cos i already knew that it would be a watch. Well, remember i said i told her not to get me the watch? I kinda knew it was coming because MY STUBBORN MOTHER NEVER LISTENS TO ME. Anyway, when i opened the box and saw that its michael kors rose gold... wow my heart stopped and all i could say was "OMG OMG OMG OMG" cos i was just so touched and i was gonna cry alr i swear hahaha. this watch is def not cheap which is why i didn't want my mum to buy it. So yeah, then went home and showered.

and before i slept i laid in my mum's bed hugging her. kissed her on her head then went to sleep.

:fast forward:

so yesterday nat brought me to this place at upp bukit timah (near clementi) called the escape artist. It's really interesting. For people who like puzzles and are into sherlock holmes-type-thing (me)
hehehe,
so basically, we were locked in a room and given a scenario. For example, ours was that we had to find out the mastermind and 4 robbers of a heist. There were clues all over the room and we had 4 boxes that were locked that we had to find the code and unlock it. In one of the 4 boxes, there was a key! to unlock the door of course.
I would totally take pics for you guys but no phones allowed so yeah~

we were pretty famished when we were done with the game thing so we headed out for lunch after!! Went to have lunch at carpenter and cook 's yum yum

what we ordered : 2 savory/main dishes (bacon and mushroom brioche and egg,cheese and onion-ithink- quiche) followed by 3 desserts and 1 scone.

desserts were - blueberry cheesecake, tiramisu and apple cobber cake.

and the scone was bacon and something i can't really remember.

their mains were good. like really good. Just that maybe the brioche's base was a little too thick. I like their salad on the side cos I love salads especially rockets.

Their deserts was mediocre for me, maybe because nat and I expected a lot more from their desserts after having such good "mains".

Their blueberry cheesecake was good, but I would prefer it with a crispier crust.. the crust was a little... soggy.

I really liked their tiramisu though, Their cream wasn't too sweet that it over powered the layer of coffee sponge cake. The coffee taste wasn't that strong either and overall the dessert wasn't very heavy!

I finished the entire cup by myself cos nat didn't quite like tiramisu and the coffee taste.

The apple cobbler cake was alright... I liked the apple and cinnamon taste in it but the cake was just too.... heavy. or maybe I was just too full???

And I didn't like the scone cos it was wayyy too salty for me.

So after carpenter and cook, we went to suntec to walk around their newly renovated convention center. Went to H&M, Sephora and smoothie King!!!!

Oh and guess what, sephora finally carries NYX!!!!!!! yay!!!!! bought 2 lip products from nyx and IM LOVING IT especially the matte liquid lip thingy in Antwerp. I'll make sure to take pics of it in my next post (or the following one cos I think the next one is gonna be on my week )
