Happy Valentine's Day!!!
One of the most commercialized day in the year which is good for our economy now.
So how did we spend this faithful day? We actually have scheduled pre natal classes every saturday so we spent the evening with 20 over pairs of couples in the prenatal class doing exercise.
=__=
But we celebrated one day earlier!
2 years ago, Darren proposed on Valentine's Day! See my ~ post ~ here. He ended up paying about 800 bucks plus for the whole thing as we had dinner in the room. Last week, i received a mailer from a colleague about Fullerton having the same promotion, guess what, it's only 500 bucks plus. This is the sign of a bad economy. Prices all reduced!! I bet the hotels in Singapore are having a hard time to woo customers now. Competition is just so intense.
Anyway we didnt go Fullerton hotel as 500 SGD can buy us a baby cot, or maybe about 25 packs of Mamy Poko diapers. We decided to look across the causeway for greater deals. Besides, Dar's company still have holiday subsidy we can claim! yay! we had a holiday that was sort of "sponsored" by his company.
On friday we went over to Malaysia for our getaway.
It was a short drive away from 2nd link...
we reached!
The architecture was designed to be like a Malay palace and indeed it's really peaceful and surrounded by a whole stretch of golf course. Personalized butler service when we checked in and their service cannot be even compared to Fullerton Hotel. The people there are so much friendlier!
What made me touched was 2 staff over there which I have planned to write commendation letters to their Director when I finished this post was Samantha and Azmari. Samantha was from the reservations and actually this package was only allowed to check in on 14th Feb. The first time we called, somebody (a guy) told me cannot check in on 13th Feb, and the package is for members only. We were disappointed... then i decided to try my luck the following day and kind Samantha took my call and made all the arrangements for us, including asking the chef and restaurant to set up the table especially for us as we were the only couple that requested to check in on 13th Feb.
Maybe you would say it's part of her job, but i really appreciate her for making it happen. Sometimes, people just ignore requests from guests...although it's part of their job too. We will definitely go back and stay again!!!
Roses greeted us when we checked in...
and i love the setting of the hotel. It's very boutique hotel setting.
My tao-kay in action.
My turn!
Our turn together!
the lovely bathroom that we love... can watch tee bee in bath tub!
Spacious bathroom.. no more fighting to brush teeth
we took a walk around the area.. Great for photoshoots lo! but we didnt sit on the grass cos it's difficult for me to get up and i dont want to kena golf balls.. hee hee
There was only 1 table outdoor with this purple setting. We were guessing it must be our dinner setting.
and it was!hahaha
The food was quite good!
we enjoyed ourselves very much! Great weekend getaway on a shoestring=p

This week has been busy with work.
It's the week that I have to prepare tax returns for the expatraites and all staff. Plus a super not user-friendly software, i simply hate this period of time.
Figures, figures and MORE figures. *cry*
We went for our 1st ante-natal class at AMK last weekend.
It was organized by TMC, and conducted by Mrs Wong who often appears on TV and seminars.
She's really knowledgeble and taught us massages, exercises and what to do and what not to do. =) She's really humourous and it's very interesting. Next lesson we will be taught labour pains and how to cope with it. I just hope that I will stay calm and remember everything taught during the class when the big day comes. hee hee
It's V day this weekend! To celebrate our 1st Vday with wawa in my tummy, we went for a photoshoot last week! It's by ~ Studio Loft ~ and their theme is V day theme. She's really good at taking photographs of kids with alot of colourful props and all.
have gained 4 kg since the start of my pregnancy, but it seems like darren oso gained weight hor.. whahahaha
For 25 bucks, Maryann will take about 10-15 shots and you can choose 2 digital photos to take home. heez Usually she has themes for CNY, Valentine's Day, Xmas etc and alot of family go for family shoots with their children in tow.
I will be going back for studio maternity shoots when my tummy gets bigger too! yay =)
Happy V day in advance!!

Had a great weekend!
first, dar and me went to satisfy our curry cravings. Not the indian kind but the japanese kind! Both he loves Japanese curry from udon to katsu curry rice. hee
Read on lifestyle about Curry Favour so we decided to go and try. I ordered the regular flavour and dar ordered spicy. Spicy is better I feel. hee
What i like about them is they have "1/2 size" curry rice. The portion is smaller so I can finish every bit of it and there's no wastage.
the size of my tum tum now.
had a great catch up with old friends over the weekend!
yeah.. really "old" friends as they were my sec 4 class mates!
The turnout was great. Almost 100% looked like 10 over years ago (except the very pregnant ME) and 70% of them are married, 45% of them (including myself) have kids and it was really good catching up with all of them amidst the yummilicious jumbo SEAFOOD!
i look super tired.
yeah.. very shaq.
Okay on official "MC" tmr as it's the DETAILED SCAN DAE!
