Apologies on the lateness of this post to the 10 of you that visit my blog (haha)! Been dealing with some issues for the past few weeks that perhaps I would share in another post. But for the month of July, this is what I have been up to.

June Jammies - A friend from out of town, Birthday celebrations and more...
Tuesday, July 03, 2018
June heralds the end of the first half of the year. Out with the old, in with the new as they say! June was a month of gatherings and birthdays for me, and it was pretty tame for me. Transition period as they say!
May was a pretty tame month for me. Went to the ballet for the first time, and then HKG for a business trip. Also attended my first ever private movie screening!
March is my birthday month and also the end of Q1 2018. Had a blast as I decided to host a last minute party for my quarter century plus some birthday. Due to timing issues I had to hold it on the 2nd, which is 1 day before my actual birthday. Thank goodness I had some help and Marc decided to co-host the party with me! What ensued was a really nice evening of meeting friends new and old.
February brings with it all it's little surprises and festivities. CNY is always an integral part of the year with its familial gatherings and raucous celebrations.
With the blink of the eye, January has passed us by. The sub-25 degree temperature was a departure from the scorching heat of Singaporean summers, and us residents of the Little Red Dot were lulled into a peaceful, warm and cuddy first month of the year. So cozy up as we dive into the going ons of January!
Starting off with a notice - I'm trying to update my blog at a fixed time every month, which will be from the 1st to 3rd, so keep a look out for that!
End November to early December contained a wealth of surprises, among which was that my long lost cousin from Shanghai, Kimberley or Zhang Jin which she is known, came to Singapore for a three week long holiday, mostly as a sabbatical and also to work on her novel/writing.
November was amazing, what with our staycation at Orchid Country Club and a variety of activities. Pictured here is our annual and twice annual Fragile Hearts gathering at Sum Kee. The Ultraman chicken and dishes are always amazing, and we got to taste a new creation of Nic's mom, Iceberg Sweet and Sour Pork.
October was Halloween weekend and a whole bunch of other activities here in Sunny Singapore. There were Halloween parties to be at and food to be eaten. So here's a summary of my mega-October month! (Pictured here are Harlequin-Colette and Playboy Bunny-Chelsea, along with me, who's supposed to be a hippie!)
In August and September, I sort of mellowed down a lot. Didn't go out on the weekday nights or weekends like I used to at the start of the year! I guess these two months were that of relaxation and reflection, as we slowly progress towards the last quarter of the year.
Time seems to be passing so quickly, innit? In the blink of the eye it's already the end of July as I am writing this. Here are some of the memories from these 3 months: Mostly - K's dance by the Bay, Candlenut dinner with the ACSians, pub crawl with K, J, C, K...
January was as usual jam packed with activities, starting off 2017 with a bang. Kicking off the month of January were many foodscapades and a concert to boot! Plus who can forget Lunar New Year at the end of January and the feasting and merrymaking!
