Melaka Trip Oct 2023 Day 1

Image
My very first overseas trip since covid-19!!! Hotel Hotel booking as usual via online platform without any hiccups. Agoda it is. Coach to Malacca Coach booking via online platform (easybook.com) as well but now there is app to view the coach details. Even without app, the agency will send the bus details around an hour before the bus arrival at the pick up point. And this time round, we boarded at jurong east venture drive which is a lot nearer then going all the way to the east. Our coach travelled in Malaysia via tuas checkpoint. The tuas checkpoint seemed to be the only congested area where our coach seemed to take a longggg time before we finally get to alight and enter Singapore custom. But amazingly, it was swift and smooth departure. Even at Malaysia custom, it didn't take more than 15 mins to get in and board our coach!!! Totally amazed by the smooth transition. Short break at Yong Peng Short break at yong peng for some makan and toilet break Nasi lemak for the...

Movie Review: Talk to me

It was just by chance that I went for this movie.  Synopsis and Trailer can be found here . Spoilers ahead!  It was the second last day of  Jcube shopping mall  operation and decided to catch just one last movie before they closed for good.  Saw positive reviews about  Talk To Me  and being a supernatural theme movie fan, I went with this movie.  If one is looking for a scare, then this might not be what you are looking for. The parts which scared me would be the first time when Mia first got in contact with the spirits and when Riley was being hurt by the spirits during his contact with the spirits. While the supernatural is the basis of the movie, the script worked around people's relationships and trust.  The movie was quite straightforward to show how bad Mia's relationship with the people around her except for Jade and her little brother Riley. Jade's friends to Jade's mother clearly have trust issues with Mia. The spirits' lies res...

Pasar Malam Lobster Takoyaki

Bought $4.50 for 6 pieces. I was immediately tempted by the word "Lobster" even though I am certain I will not find what I am looking for inside.  Surprisingly the taste was good.  (But my favorite is still the octopus)

The opera cake

Image
(Bought from Coffee Bean Tea Leaf SG) After eating, I really feel like singing in opera because it was just so good. Although there were some cracks on the top layer, but it was the galaxy-like layer that mesmerized me. The taste of very much like tiramisu but after a search, then I knew that some of their main ingredients differed.

Painting by numbers

Image
Saw this painting by numbers canvas quite a while ago. Finally got it to complete as a gift. The set comprised of 3 different size paint brush, the set of colors required for the painting, the canvas with the color numbers printed, a small picture of the colored painting and the hooks. Overall was fun but took me a few days to complete because I didn't want my painting to be accidentally smudged by the paint colors. The completed version I started with the smaller/inner areas and/or colors that are lighter tone. Took roughly 2 weeks for me to complete because I stopped in between a few days as I want it to be completely dry. Some of the colors given in the kit set were already harden and I tried adding water to "revive" it. The other difference of what it was supposed to be was the outermost green color background as the green color paint was completed dried. I mixed the remaining colors from the kit set ...
