[♥] Seoul Lovin’ Part #1

by xoxojeneenLeave a Comment on [♥] Seoul Lovin’ Part #1
Mumsy and I took a holiday to Korea, Seoul last week. Our trip went on for 9 days, and I was completely ‘shopped’ out. There’s just so much to see, buy and eat. It’s a pity Mumsy didn’t fancy Korean food. I could have had it everyday.

This Chicken Bulgolgi rice is so yummy.


Mix it up and fry it…
Voila, it’s done!

There were tons of stalls at Myeong Dong and Namdemun selling socks. You can practically find every brand name; Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Coach, Burberry, Calvin Klein etc. etc. etc. They were a huge hit with the Japanese tourists.

The streets of Myeong Dong. Did tons of shopping here. You can find multiples of all the major skincare flagship stores congregated at this place.

And I got a summer fedora.

More food. There are so many Italian pasta restaurants in Seoul.


Along the streets of Myeong Dong again. Lots of make-shift stalls line the streets and that’s Skin Food and Holika Holika practically side by side. If you’re wondering, yes, I bought lots. I probably have enough skincare to last me for the next two years.


Korean fashion.

New additions to the accessories family. 🙂 ♥♥♥

So that’s all for now! I’ve got tons of pictures. I’ll continue with more in another post.

XOXO

Birthday People!

Here are a couple of pictures to share taken at the birthday celebrations of some people close to my heart. There was Mummy’s, Fionna’s and Candy’s. (I’m sorry I missed yours Angelia! 😦 )


Happy birthday Mummy!

We were dining at Lei Garden (Chijmes). Can you spot the huge fishes and crustaceans in the tank at the background? They were looking really sad and grumpy. One humongous snow crab looked like it was trying to climb its way out of the tank. The sister and I were very disturbed and googled if fishes had feelings and emotions. Apparently, they do! So yes, we got by the dinner without ordering fish or any form of seafood.


The sister and brother-in-law’s present for Mum. All prettily wrapped up!


The sister was so sweet. I got a present too, for no reason. Yay!





Happy Birthday Fionna! That huge cake is from Cedele and we were having dim sum at Royal China, Raffles Hotel.




Happy Birthday Candy! (That’s a lot of wishes you’re making there! Haha)



We had dinner at Brussel Sprouts, Robertson Quay.

And of course, had to continue the night at Butter.

It’s Christmas eve already! I can’t wait to sleep, get up and then head out to the parties. I hope you guys all have a wonderful Christmas! I’ll be updating again soon.

xoxo

family, heart-warming

In Sickness and In Health

by xoxojeneen1 Comment on In Sickness and In Health
I visited Grandpa at the hospital today. Grandma was beside him and she teared when we spoke about his illness. They are both in their 80s and have been together for close to 60 years. Grandma told me that Grandpa went to her ‘kampung’, saw her and asked for her hand. I saw the love for him in her eyes today. Through thick and thin, they have stayed together. No matter how hard it was, splitting up was never in the cards. Secretly, he still calls her by sweet endearments! (which makes my hair kinda stand. :))
Get well soon Grandpa. It’s not time yet.
