Halloween Celebration in Vivere Hotel

As we know, 85% of Filipinos are Christian hence no doubt that they are celebrating Halloween on 31st OCT every year. So while i was in Philippines, almost every corner of the hotel was decorated with little pumpkins...

On the actual day, there was a Halloween celebration in Vivere Hotel's ballroom for all the guests but unfortunately my flight back to Singapore was on 29th OCT so unable to join this special occasion.  :(

Besides that, there is a special promotion from Sky Lounge (a restaurant in Vivere Hotel) for Drink of the Month and Dessert of the Month.....With an order of Drink of the Month, a free little pumpkin will be given as a souvenier...



Drink of the Month - mixed fruit juice

  

Dessert of the Month ......YUMMY!!

In order to get more little pumpkins, i ordered the Drink of the Month everytime i had my dinner in Sky Lounge. Eventually i brought back 4 pumpkins....hehe.. very cute, right?

little pumpkins

Halloween party is very fun with all kinds of special costumes, hope i have the chance to join the party next time....

ROM隨意外拍

MC一個禮拜在家閒著沒事做，這翻翻那翻翻才發現上次101010註冊時的外拍照片還沒跟網友們分享呢。這一組照片都是我小妹幫我拍的唷，我選了一些還不錯的照片讓大家欣賞。。。。可別笑我唷因為我們都覺得這些照片很好笑，全都不到味 :p。。。

那綠綠的草地是靠近我家的高爾夫球場。。

前面罢的那兩隻小熊是第一次漢送我花時附上的，在花枯萎之後我把那兩只小熊做成擺設品放在車上。一黑一白的代表着我和他。。。。哈哈。。

這張照片是我最喜歡的因為覺得很特別，雖然感覺有點不對。那一絲絲的我也不知道是甚麼樹。。。

在送走漢的爸媽後，大概五點半我們才出去拍的所以裝都糊糊了。不過也沒關係啦，照片拍來最重要是做個紀念，也辛苦了我的小妹，謝謝咯！！

姐妹們的小小聚會

上個星期二終於見到我好久未見的姊妹們，好高興噢！！自從大學畢業後大家都有各自的生活和事業，所以都鮮少見面有時一年只見上一次。隨著大家都來新加坡工作，見面變得容易安排得多可是還是拖了半年才見上一面。。。哈哈。。還敢說呢都是因為我老是時間上沒辦法配合 >.<

這一次我們選擇在Bishan的Swensens見面，雖然只有培玲，焉戀，亭慧和我四個人，可是我們就足以讓我們從七點聊到店打烊的時間才甘願離開，還是店員小姐叫我們結賬的呢, 厲害嗎？？四個姊妹都足以讓我們聊到天南地北，從男朋友，家人，工作到現在的生活狀況一一不可放過，如果所有八個姊妹都到齊的話那七嘴八舌的應該像個小巴殺了。。。。哈哈。。

雖然大家看起來都沒甚麼改變可是無可否認的我們都成熟了，也就是老了 。期待下一次的聚會噢，大家保重。。。。。

香水的魅力

還記得小時候都喜歡偷噴媽媽的香水，因為無法抗拒那香噴噴的味道，結果噴得太多使得那味道久久未能散去，最終被發現了>.< 。。。。 在長大後，第一次收到香水是男朋友送的情人節禮物，收到時而外興奮，雖然只是小小的一瓶但是卻裝着滿滿的心意。 出去拍拖時都不忘會拿它出來擦擦，讓自己香噴噴的出門，魅力加分，心情也跟著愉快起來：）。。

香水對你來說是种奢侈品還是不可缺少的必需品呢？對於現代時尚女性來說，香水不但能展示個人魅力，突顯個人風格，它那淡淡的香氣更是魅力無法擋噢！尤其是在我們這長年夏天的國家，難耐的熱天總讓俊男靚女們汗流浹背，身上的汗味更讓人尷尬，這時香水便是最好的選擇。

當然選擇適合自己的香水是很重要的，我個人是偏愛清新的淡香味因為太重的香水味會讓我的鼻子受不了，不停的打噴嚏，也可能讓身旁的人有种窒息的感覺噢！ 哈哈。。。。。選擇對的香水才能讓您的魅力加分噢！！！

可恨的蜜蜂

前兩個月不知怎麼有只蜜蜂在我家廚房休息，而正當我到廚房準備曬衣時不小心踩了它一腳，就這樣我被狠狠地螫了一針。好痛噢！當場傻眼為甚麼會有只蜜蜂在地上啊，可那小小的蜜蜂這麼被我一踩也一命嗚呼了。。


其實蜜蜂雖會螫人，不過它也很疼惜那根螫人的刺，因為一旦螫了人後，自己也會死去。這根用來螫敵人的刺針，接連著大、小毒腺和內臟器官，而腹刺針的尖端，還有幾個小小的倒勾。所以，當蜜蜂把針刺進人皮膚裡，要將刺針拔出時，小倒勾卻牢固的勾住皮膚，因此刺針及連接的部分內臟，就一起被拖出體外，蜜蜂就會死去。

我也不想害你的可是你也螫了我一針害我還得動個小手術把刺拿出來。。。。之前還一直以為長雞眼所以一直塗雞眼的藥。哪知道不但沒變小反而越腫越大還長膿包了，忍無可忍之下向醫生求助去了。 醫生看了下說‘小姐，你得到專科醫院動個手術因為蠻嚴重的，蜜蜂的刺可能還在腳上。你亂亂塗抹雞眼的藥是不會好的而且越來越嚴重。’ 當場才覺得事態嚴重因為越來越痛了，於是今天一大早立刻到醫院去了。

原先是到Pantai醫院的，可是當知道又是那個戴醫生時，當下決定換家醫院，最後就到Putra醫院去了。我還蠻挑剔的，我認為一個好的醫生會讓你的心定下來，我超不喜歡那個戴醫生的因為他跟你談話時總是覺得芝麻綠豆，幸災樂禍的樣子看了就覺得不安心。我相信每個病人在即將動手術時都會害怕需要一顆定心丸，你說對嗎？

到了Putra醫院，英俊帥氣的陳醫生好多了。

手術前還有點害怕問醫生 ‘我的腳是不是會多一個洞呀？’

醫生看了看我開完笑的說 ‘對亞，會有個大洞。。。。不過肉會長回來的一兩個禮拜就會好了。’

就這樣我擺脫了那蜜蜂的刺，可是因為傷口在腳板沒辦法走路換來了一個星期的MC。。。。

真是人不可貌相

要去台湾的朋友请注意咯，在选择民宿时务必要小心，最好有男生陪同。因为刚刚才收到惊人的消息，我六月时到台湾旅行的民宿老板竟是个色狼 >.< 。这个在花蓮市「小李生活館」日租套房老闆李玉麒，上網以民宿名義攬客，卻遭多名女遊客指控，他在飲料、蛋糕下藥，趁機撫摸胸部、下體及偷窺洗澡。超下流的！！

檢警到李經營的套房搜索，找到疑有迷藥成分針筒及五件女性內褲，將他帶回偵訊，但罪證不足飭回。因李有兩次狡猾脫罪紀錄，警方已監控李男行蹤，並希望若有其他女遊客受害向警方舉發。

真是人不可貌相，李是我们在台湾时的民宿老板兼导游。亏我老爸还说他为人不错怎么到现在还单身，原来他有这等癖好怪不得找不到老婆啦！！ 我们全家人都很庆幸能安全归来，真是不幸中的大幸，也幸亏我们都住在二和三楼而且都有男生陪同，据报道受害者大多数是全体女生，都住一楼方便他行事。。

还记得他跟我老爸谈天时说很羡慕有四个女儿，四千金，现在想想都不知道是不是话中有话，好恶心哦！！还是要提醒网友们出国旅行一定要小心尤其是没男生的陪同，毕竟我们无法预料将会发生的事。。。

Delicious Philippino Food

Almost three weeks in Phlippines, sure i had tried some philippino food. Now, let me introduce to you one by one, my number one favourite food isssss............... Pancit Palabok. It is actually a Filipino noodle dish of Chinese origin, called as palabok because of the thin rice noodles are covered with a bright colored orange shrimp-flavoured thick sauce. Aside from the sauce, pancit palabok has a toppings of prawns, wedge cut hard-boiled eggs, chicharon (pork cracklings), flaked tinapa (smoke fish), fried garlic and chopped of green onions. Then finished it with squeezing lemon all over. Wah, it makes me feeling hungry now.....

Pancit Palabok

The second goes to Halo-halo, a popular Filipino dessert which is a mixture of shaved ice, evaporated milk, sweet beans and fruits, and then served in a tall glass or bowl. It is exactly like the 'ice-kacang' in Malaysia. No doubt that this mouth-watering dessert is the favourite of the kids because of its colourful looking. While i was eating halo-halo in the restaurant, the kid who was sitting in front of me kept starring at my halo-halo, i felt very 'paiseh' but still kept on enjoying it....haha... :P

Halo-halo

The third one is 'Leche-Flan' or Filipino custard which i have mentioned before in the post of Leslies Restaurant in Tagaytay , a very popular dessert in Phillipines.

Leche-flan

Well, there are also some very special Filipino food like balut which is commonly sold as streetfood in Philippines. Balut is a fertilized duck or chicken egg with a nearly-developed embryo inside that is boiled and eaten in the shell. Besides, it is popularly believed to be an aphrodisiac and considered as a high-protein, hearty snack. Another type of balut which is fried until golden brown, they called it Kwek-kwek.

So after seeing the picutre of balut, do you brave enough to eat? I'm not dare to eat both type of balut as found uneasy to eat the small chick insides........ >.<

Besides, they eat also small worm/bug. I tried few of them, it was a bit salty....

Next is Puto, it is a a type of steamed rice cake, taste a bit sweet..

Last is fried kangkung, i guess you never tried it before. It tastes good, very crispy, you would certainly want more after trying....

So which one will be your choice?

Palace in the sky - Tagaytay

After lunch, we headed to our next destination, 'Palace in the sky' which was an unfinished mansion of Philippine former President, Ferdinand Marcos. Now it is opened for public and is renamed as People's Park in the Sky.  Since it is situated in one of the highest places in Tagaytay, it offers the majestic view of the Taal Lake and Taal Volcano.

We took jeepney to go up to the Palace of sky. Jeepney is a very popular means of public transportation in the Philippines, they were originally made from US military jeeps left over from World War II and are well known for their flamboyant decoration and crowded seating. My first time to experience jeepney was just like the feel of sitting in the 'tutu' car in Thailand.

Jeepney

From the Palace of sky, you can see very beautiful tagaytay view besides the taal lake and volcano. I like the cool and refreshing air over there which makes me feeling extremely pleasant and calm...

Before leaving, don't forget to buy some souveniers. There is a street in the building selling various kinds of souveniers, you can easily get what you want over there. For me, i just bought two clothes as souveniers, one for me and one for my husband.

It was really a pleasant trip to Tagaytay, i love it!! Thanks to my 'pare' who spend their precious time for accompanying me.... :)
