really miss being able to dress up) :

basically i learned how to dress more femininely since 2H2019.haha. lovet simply has too many pretty dresses! and i started to see how much of a difference wearing earrings and lipstick makes. 

speaking of earrings, quite amazed tht there are pretty clipons online. yay dont think i will ever pierce my ears then 😜

celebrating g's bday, and our promotions teehee. wouldn't have expected CB to be announced a few days later

so lovely to meetup with lpe! funny how we were talking abt staycay plans then. 

we were so stocked to be invited to the istana for a tea reception in jan! 

suprising momo with flowers for her bday

first time trying shangpin hotpot cus tlg was enticed by the 30% off. soup was pretty good!! anyway it was pretty sad tht the ENTIRE restaurant was empty due to the lack of tourists/covid fears. this was also the day tht they conducted a vpn surprise test n i didnt bring my laptop back for tht particular weekend =. = cus we couldn't foresee ourselves ever working from home. 

and look at us now LOL. mostly working from home. 

😅

wondering how the world/sg will change postcovid... 

taichung feb 2020

kfc rice cooker recipe

otw to shifen waterfall 

valentines yacht trip to southern islands. with bbq on board!! i thought it was super worth it (arnd $240 for 2 pax). 

this is probably my 5th time to jiufen, but 1st time i took special notice of the teahouse

with mdm president

this place was just damn chio. justin was also a wonderful guide! 

too bad we couldnt stay till sunset but the gaomei wetlands were beautiful nontheless. oh and the winds are sooo strong!! i dropped my earring but tlg managed to find it(!?!?!?!?!) 

thankful for great weather at jiufen. tlg amd i were very amused by our tour guide tht kept saying "YESSSSSS" to herself lol

first time i see the geopark so empty... it's nice we could enjoy the park peacefully instead of having to jostle with crowds

eatzi lunch set, foodpanda delivery. eating better because of transport savings

hahahah this meme. inspired by all tht clapping and singing for frontline workers

this was after mnd fam day at USS. had such a bad haze tht day lol. mediumrare had a steak promo so we went thr to celebrate my bday in advance! 

wings of time. it's quite an entertaining show, just tht wished there were more fireworks

funfact- ive only tried llao llao for frozen yoghurt 

so both of us became friends of the gardens in dec 2019... which gave us unlimited entry to the conservatories! so we went for the sakura matsuri in mar hehe. pretty flowers. was happy i could see them again cus i was too busy posing in my gown to properly appreciate the sakuras in taiwan

spring city resort at beitou. told myself tht i must go soak in the hotspring when im in taiwan. super good deal, tlg and i still reminisce about it after our trip. (and during CB i'm watching xi li ren qi. noticed tht the main leads went to this hotel for their 'second honeymoon' LOL!) 

i figured that kimchi soup is actually very easy to cook at home

first hdl experience for tlg. this was valentines day hehe

spent the last day of 2019 at gbtb

omg my last dine-in meal before CB

last bbt before shops closed

new year eve

jan 2020 - progress of our future home

thankful we could celebrate CNY before Covid got worse

told tlg to navigate and he thought the cafe closed down cus there was a block of flats that were barricaded. but i was pretty incredulous so i looked at the map again.. *FACEPALM* the cafe was right behind us lol

simple western fare for good prices. all nett! 

modelling his bag

free flow saladdd

yay flowers for valentines

probably my last selfie with the merlion before it gets demolished

first meal in taipei. portion was huge for the price tag :D satisfying meal esp since we took budget flight and was starving since 7am

taichung is so pretty. no regrets signing up for the klook tour! and great that the temp is warmer

we were kinda sick of the hotel breakfast so we randomly walked arnd the neighbourhood... was so drawn in by the smell as we walked pass this shop. yums! and i couldn't finish the plate loll. good hearty breakfast! 

not sure what are the fishes that i'm putting inside my mouth hahaha 

enjoying our jap lunch before the hotspring experience

we love our beef cubes :p

our last photoshoot location. can you see the sulphur rocks in the background!? 

stayed at yomi hotel throughout the trip. it's a biz hotel but i guess we dont need a luxurious stay. it's comfortable enough with all the basic amenities! 

goodbye taipei ~ hope to visit soon

when can we share a plate of mala again? 😭

omg this was so satisfying

the menu says this is shark's fin soup but i hvn't eaten it in a long time so not sure how shark's fin looks like?? 

tunglok seafood buffet, for every 3 paying pax 1 dines free! SUPER WORTH IT. 

the cheapest main course on foodpanda around my area is from El Carbon. spaghetti n soup for less than 6 bucks! with free delivery (cus got promo code) 

last staycay with ros at Oasia Downtown before CB. 

tempted to swim.. but then the water's cold
