Well, someone has an Apple Watch now and is obsessed as usual. Yep, she's tracking everything. Strength-training. Outdoor walk. Outdoor swim. Sleep. And the one watch already has three "outfits" aka straps 2 weeks in. Ahem. So far.
That's how I roll friends. *LOL*
This week's page from the gratitude journal is really all about the bunny in sunnies that I saw at Sentosa when I went for a Van Gogh digital exhibition. The exhibition was a bust (when you've seen the real stuff in Europe, the digital version just sucks) but I did enjoy a lovely day on Sentosa island (which is very touristy).
I went all in with my diecuts and happy mail bits. Can you tell? *LOL*
Happy week ahead friends!
This week's pages from the gratitude journal is all about friendship. Lizzy and I would never have crossed paths in real life if not for the creative world and blogging. Here we were after not seeing each other in person for 4 almost four years due to Covid. Glad we got to spend some time together last year since I couldn't make it to Oz this year and stars couldn't align for us to meet in Vietnam either.
P/s: I had fun with this spread because I got to use my word diecuts across the two pages....:)

Today's page from the gratitude journal is about the yusheng from Kuriya Dining (my fave local Japanese restaurant).
Yusheng is a raw fish salad dish typically eaten during the Chinese Lunar New Year in Singapore and Malaysia. There are lots of "auspicious" ingredients in this dish and we would gather around the table with our chopsticks to mix the ingredients together while exclaiming prosperous phrases.
I love the one from Kuriya Dining because they include other sashimi seafood like prawns and scallops in addition to the raw fish...you know I love my sashimi. *winks*
P/s: It's not a historical Chinese practice but a marketing gimmick that really appeals because the Chinese character for fish is Yu which means abundance...so eating this dish signifies that you will get abundance for the year.
Today's page is an ode to the roasted meat at East Ocean Restaurant, a local Chinese restaurant. The texture and taste...just yummy! :)
So this girl may or may not have gotten a few Nanobags at a recent sale. She bought 8 and got 7 free...*dramatic music plays in the background*
These are incredible light and strong reusable bags. The standard bag can hold up to 30kg and weighs like 50g. Best of all, it tucks right back into its own bag without any need to fold it properly. Check out the two premium ones I got...the ducks and the foxes. Super cute. I exercised restraint of course. This girl is an adult. *LOL*
I scored a full-day parking coupon at Sentosa Island in September so we went to Siloso Beach. Woohoo!
We went out early so that we could hit the beach before it got really hot.
There are 3 beaches on Sentosa Island and they are all lovely because....they are manmade! Yep, Singapore is mostly manufactured. *LOL*
Here we have the folks all ready to tackle the sun at the beach...okay, maybe just mum, dad had to borrow my sister's cap because he forgot his. *winks*
It was a lovely morning to enjoy the sea view while doing some grounding. :)
P/s: All my fun stickers came out to play! Yay!
The week in eye drawings so far....is looking pretty good. *winks*
Happy Wednesday friends!
You can tell that my gratitude journal is getting fat! *winks*
This one features a double page spread of two different locations. The left page features the yummy treats at Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur's Club floor. Which incidentally was the last place I went to back in 2020 before the Covid lockdown.
The left page features a dish from a new-to-me restaurant that I discovered on this particular trip...only because the old faves shut down during the whole Covid situation.
