Singapore Part III - Getting under the belly of Sg

2.5 weeks to the wedding! I've been slaving till dawn for the last two nights doing revisions - they're done! Starting to pray earnestly about things (best way to get things done): Singapore, London, The Wedding, The Boy, honeymoon, Houston, The Move, married life. I wish I was more enthusiastic about The Move - maybe it hasn't hit me yet. I just get so... judgmental! It's a strange word for this context, but that's just how I feel. Maybe it's natural to feel this way. Maybe moving continents is a bigger deal than I want to give it credit for. Maybe it's gonna get better when I've actually moved. God. Family. Friends. We take too many things for granted.

Well, Singapore has been swell at least. Ah, back to civilization - defined here as things that work, customer service, healthy lifestyle, good food, good weather and having a car. Throw in solid church, lots of greenery, a burgeoning arts scene, "anything that you could ever want" (quote visiting friend - but why Annick Goutal but no Miller Harris?) and The Family - you've got an almost paradise! We take too many things for granted.

Apologies for the random thoughts. Am going to switch to point form mode now, which seems more appropriate given my mood.


Attempt at steak Diane no. 2 - I made sure I had matches this time!


Dinner @Woods, VivoCity - Singapore's largest mall.
This fab restaurant is all about the grill.


I couldn't resist taking many shots of the corn on the cob.
Isn't it the most fabulous corn on the cob you've ever seen?


Satay - I dunno, posh hawker food just doesn't do it for me.



Singapore Sling @ The Raffles Hotel,
with my newly married bridesmaid, C, and her handsome husband!
Passing through on the way home from their honeymoon.


Scotch @The Connoisseur Divan, UE Square.
There's a fab bar next door too!
