Every ordinary day is a blessing
I am down with a cold and decided to quarantine myself today (with my boss permission) . My hubbubu and mum both rushed home as fast as they could to spend time with me, and took turns to buy my favorite foods. Then my dad got home at his usual time to eat his dinner and feed my dog. Because everyday is usually such a rush, being able to just enjoy the small happenings through an ordinary day with the people who matter most is such a blessing. Even with a fever and achy joints. Whatever bug you are, pray u go away soon. Want to go back to work tmr. Sunset. #nofilter
Russkiy Dome (袪校小小袣袠袡 袛袨袦歇) @ Westway
Russkiy Dome, has been relocated to Westway, newly furnished 2 storey building at 27 West Coast Highway, right next to the famous West Coast Korean BBQ, Jushinjung. It is a very small cosy Russian country-style decorated cafe that has only 6 tables, with a corner carved out for movie screening and Nintendo games on a couch. The chef is from Uzbekistan and one of the聽servers is from Russia so be ready for out of Singapore dining experience. To celebrate Miss YY birthday, we started with the Borsch Soup ($13.80) – good for 2 to share! I still stick to my claim that Russkiy Dome’s Borsch Soup is one of the most authentic and ingredient-rich in Singapore! Refreshing without the sour cream, rich and satisfying with the sour cream. Next up – Pork Julienne ($15), the most popular mains with the patrons of Russkiy Dome. Love the tender pork,聽hand cut potatoes and the yummy Cream Cheese sauce with a dash of dill. Very rich dish that is also good for sharing. We also had the Chicken …
Flying (literally) – Sky Diving Experience in Queenstown, New Zealand
No better way to start the travelogue than to talk above my recent skydiving experience during my honeymoon in New Zealand! I can’t even say skydiving is something I have always to do because.. it wasn’t. I used to look at pictures of people in the sky and think “I could never do it”. Then when we decided on New Zealand for honeymoon, I started praying and asking myself “Why not? Why do I think that I cannot skydive?”. I realized I didn’t know why I was scared… Was I afraid of dying if an accident happens? Was I afraid of heights? Was I afraid of my parachute not opening? What was it?? Then it hit me…. it was really the free fall section. I am till today scared of that rollercoaster-heart-in-the-air feeling. And i didn’t want to be free falling for 1 minute with that feeling. I honestly think that my heart would stop. So I continued to question myself…… How do I know I would get that feeling? So I watch youtube videos …
Re-start
Today, i restart journalling. It’s been years since I last blogged. I stopped because I prioritized working. I stopped partly because I was always torn between writing what I want to write, the way I want to write it versus writing it so people would read. I also stopped because I didn’t like reading “hater” comments on my blog posts with ridiculous accusations. But i have been thinking for a while now what my passion truly is, and what is it that God wants me to love other than Himself, N, and all the people He has blessed me with? And I have come to realize… Im not crazy about music or soccer or any specific activity but Im really passionate about life that God has blessed me with.聽I think every second is a gift and we shouldn’t waste our time. I also love food and travel!聽And I have actually had multiple requests for me to start a food blog. So today, i have decided I will make them to take pit stops to write. …
