Sunny Sentosa

So a couple of days back, a couple of friends and I headed down to Sentosa to soak up the sun. When I came out of the house, the skies were overcast, so I thought, it was probably gonna rain. However sure I was, I still went to buy sunblock, couldn't find mine at home....bought a SPF 110, awesome stuff. Who knew, when we reached, it was scorching hot. Thank goodness for sunblock.

Went down to toast box at the resorts world area for brunch first. It has been almost over a year since I stepped onto Sentosa beach so did my friends, so we didn't know there was a toast box at the beach station itself..oh wells. Anyway. while having brunch we were like talking about how taking a cab into sentosa from vivo might be cheaper than taking the monorail which cost us like 3bucks plus per person. Should try it out the next time..hahah.

After brunch, went down to the beach area to play beach vball. Ended up playing with a group of guys for like almost 3hours..seriously nuts. The last time I played vball was in november i think. The next day, I was just aching all over. Even up till now, my arms are still aching! With all the sun and heat, the soles of my feet got burnt and left me with blisters on my toes. :( Thank goodness I slapped on 2 layers of sunblock which was super thick and viscous as compared to the watery SPF 50 I have always been using. Ended up with only my face a little burnt as usual but everywhere else fine :)


 Was taking this photo in front of some restaurant and the people working there outside kept starring at us..


 I could play beach volley everyday if this was just behind my house

 ice to cool the poor soles of the feet


 
the bunch of guys we played volley with

 after shower, it was time for more photos since we didn't manage to take much before we played



 spotting a new hair colour, not really obvious here though. 



Headed down to breko at holland v for dinner and to meet up with the rest after that. The food there is not bad. Had the honey bbq ribs with french fries and coleslaw for about $16.90, which isn't that expensive actually. The environment is kinda alright and service was quite good.



 best ketchup ever

 Me in celestine's new hat..muahahahah. Thinking of getting one some day.

Guess that pretty much summed up my entire day. It was definitely an extremely tiring day but guess it was a good workout. What a wonderful day spent before the best friend headed back to tassie :)

D&J's Wedding ♥

Hello once again, so the brother just had his wedding slightly over a month ago in Singapore. 2 weddings were held actually, one in Melbourne which was the ROM and church wedding and the other in Singapore which was a wedding lunch. Didn't get to take much photos in Melbourne cos was out on bridesmaid duties, didn't manage to lug my camera around, sadly. Thankfully, I managed to capture quite a number of shots during the wedding in Singapore so here it is! The wedding took place at Four Seasons Hotel Ballroom..yup.

Reception area where the tea ceremony was also held

 Before the wedding was held, inside the ballroom..


Pretty flowers! :) 

 The 'wedding cake', fake one of course. As u can see, it probably has been reused a few times..haha.

 Reception area with tidbits on the counter..mostly chocolates brought back from Melbourne

 the table where I sat...

 wedding lunch menu, the food was not bad, think it tasted better than the time I went for the food tasting..surprisingly.

 the 2 VIP tables had this flower stand on top..love the colour of flowers on it..kudos to my bro and sis-in-law for the good taste

 little cousin was bored at her own table..therefore, she came over to 'disturb' us. hahaha



 the wedding speech...the bro with the serious face. LOL

 surprise plan for the bride by the groom



 newly wed couple opening the dance floor


 my uncle and my lil cousin out on the dance floor for a father-daughter dance, how sweeet.


 pretty pretty flowers!

 vvip table


solo performance from my cousin..how cute.

So that's about it, didn't get to take much photos though. Thank goodness there was only a tea ceremony and a wedding lunch, i cannot imagine having a full day wedding, seriously so tiring. Was so caught up taking other photos, didn't manage to capture one of myself :( Anyway, for that day, I wore a beige sparkly dress from F21 and had my hair done up too with waterfall braids. At least I still have photos of myself from the melbourne wedding, may post it up next time then! Once again, really like to congratulate my bro and his wife and wishing them a blissful marriage ahead! Love you both! ♥♥♥

It has been a few years since I have utilized blogspot and I am amazed to see so many new changes which I am certainly having fun exploring. Feeling sleepy now from all the exploration, gonna head to sleep now! Stay tune to the next post, probably gonna upload some photos!
