Chinese New Year

HEY GUYS
I did a whole lot of Chinese New Year visiting this year, a total of 5 wtf.
But it did give me a reason to dress up hehe so of course i uploaded a whole lot of OOTDs on my instagram!

The usual steamboat every year during the eve of Chinese New Year with my family but my grandma really prepares a ridiculously large feast for us every year HAHA.
This is a meal for just 5 people. And this is not even the end of it they carried out even more food.
It was so cramp they had to shift all the dishes to another table???

I swear the shabu shabu was so damn fucking good. PLUS the scallops were the the size of ping pong balls or bigger SIGH i wanttttt

And a mini birthday celebration for my uncle's birthday and mine!
Because every Chinese New Year day 1 would be my chinese birthday actually so lucky me gets more red packets yearly :')

Day 1 of Chinese New Year and we had to visit like 4 places!
I brought my boyfriend along with me this time hehe. It's the very first time i was ever bringing anyone for house visits with me PLUS
it was his very first time doing CNY visiting (because he's not a local). He kept asking me what to wear and what to do HAHAHA
Usual tradition would be -> he gives the oranges to the eldest person in the house then the person would give another 2 oranges back to him but i forgot to tell him that after giving the oranges he'll receive 2 back HAHAHA so he machiam got a shock when my grandma gave him oranges and he started questioning me omg damn cute

Sigh i think everyone could tell how messed up my eye liner was. I'm so bad with make up :(

FloraCut Dress from StyleHacks.net
CutOut Wedges from online
Maroon Bag from Rome

Handsome boy's outfit is from TopMan, Evisu and Jshoe ~
I got this shirt for him as a birthday present and my mom was actually asking why his shirt has 2 colours omgwtf HAHAHA.
She is obviously clueless about the whole gradient trend and stuff oh well

Can't believe he never ever bai-nian-ed in his life!

Picture on top is my red packets from day 1 and the one below is Ritche's!

I realized after i reached home on day 1 that i didn't even snap any photos when i was out of the house. Hahaha sorzzz.
I honestly hate CNY visits because it's damn boring how we just sit there 3/4 of the time, stare at the TV or have nothing to stare at at all.
I understand how it's part of the tradition, respect for elders and some sort of a reunion but it always gets so boring sigh
I'm so glad my birthday isn't going to fall on the first day of CNY until i'm 38...it was such a bad experience last year wtf

Impromptu outing on Day 2 to my granny's before heading over to luna's house!

Some of luna's friend's came over and they seemed to have come over just to play LoL on her laptop and comp...

And the yearly must-have gambling session!~~~

Thank god for pizzas. I think i would have skipped dinner if i had to eat steamboat for 6 days straight?!!

Multiple photo bombs behind us LOL

Day 3 outfit for a friend's place before having thai food for dinner with my parents!
As i mentioned in my previous post i couldn't stop craving for thai food i don't know whyyyyyy

OOTD for Day 3:
Blazer from Online
Monochrome Romper from StyleHacks.net
Chunky Leather Heels from StyleHacks.net
Daisies Bag from StyleHacks.net

So this is the place at Golden Mile!
It's a thai restaurant known as DianDin Leluk and i'm sure you cannot miss it out since they actually occupy like 1/4 of the space on the 1st floor?
The queue was so long even though they occupy such a huge space already!

I would highly highly HIGHLY recommend this BBQ pork.
Not a fan of BBQ pork but this was really good. It's a lil spicy though especially the sauce they give along with it!

I'll be honest and tell you that this dish, the sweet and sour fish fillet, was crap.
It was mushy, filled with flour and i wouldn't even taste the fish at all?
I guess you really have to pick your dishes wisely because if you order chinese related dishes they're most likely to turn out below your expectations anyway.
So go there and order food that's strictly Thai!!

Boyfriend am-chio-ing because my mom kept asking him to smile with his teeth HAHAHA
Idk why but my mom orders like every single person to smile with their teeth for the camera no matter who it is.
Can you imagine how annoying it has been for me to be in front of the camera with her around all these years.....

Their very famous beef kuay teow that didn't live up to it's name :(
The noodles were damn Q and chewy but everything else can't be compared to the beef noodles i have had elsewhere!
Their meatball was so tough i don't even know how they made it that way.

Oh well i was certainly disappointed since there was only 1-2 good dishes when we went there for the second time but i'm willing to give it another go since their olive claypot rice was so damn good! They have like this dish known a lobster salad i think and i've seen people ordering it at their table....and i just want to kope the lobster from them......LOL er i'm not kidding. Going to try that some day definitely!!!!

Day 5, Ritche and I went for visiting at his friend's house! Couldn't take many pictures because it would have been awkward since i'm not very close to them lol.
I thought there would have been a group shot but no oh well *shrugs

OOTD
Geometric Crop upcoming on www.StyleHacks.net
Doodle Highwaists from NastyGal
Galaxy Platforms, Daisies Bag, Floral Snapback from www.StyleHacks.net

Absolutely loved this combination!

Met 2 of his friends to help them with grocery shopping at NTUC because they were planning to cook a feast for 16 people!

All of us backed away from the prawns because it was splattering all over the kitchen LOL we really looked like idiots

His friend's damn good first attempt in cooking cereal prawn haha.
Doesn't really look much like those you'll see outside (because the cereal all a bit chao da LOL) but it tasted good!

Overly filled with chicken beancurd~

Photos taken from Rachel's twitter~
The full feast cooked mainly by 2 people!

It was so crowded many of the girls were standing through the night while gambling lolol.
Many of his friends are damn lucky and pro at blackjack they're like trained from young or something.
We actually gambled from 9pm till 5am before we decided to FINALLY surrender.
I swear i think i played enough black jack this new year to not gamble for the entire year...
Some people have lost like $200+ before heading home that night. My $40 was definitely nothing LOL.

Look at my face. Ji stress yi xia?

Alright so that was my New Year for 5 days of visiting! Nowhere near being damn interesting but i guess this is Chinese New Year in SG for you~
Can't play with fireworks, only a few days off for the festive period (so most people don't do visiting after day 3 unlike china), and Singapore the country with almost completely nothing new to do how could new year be interesting anw.

It's 3 days before my 20th birthday can you even believe it. I don't even know what ritche has planned but i know i'm excited to wear my birthday dress HAHAHA. Bought it like 3 months back and kept it in the closet brand new to be worn on my birthday :') Omg i need to stop doing that!!!
Next post might be on Boracay, or maybe it'll be on my birthday? IDK I'M DAMN EXCITED HAHA
Till next time poops!
