Updates since last post~ Jasmine's visit and the Sun Family!

It was sooo nice to see Jasmine and Bhavin. Even though sleeping at 2am is kind of late for a weekday it was well worth it. Who knows when Jazz will be able to make a trip back to Sauga next time!

We meet up for dinner at East Side Mario last Thursday and hung out with the couple, their cousins and sister. It was fun and Jazz and I caught up on some things that happened since their wedding (and move to Cincinnati.) Gosh I really missed my French girl. We spoke in French when we wanted to share secrets... it was great~ After dinner we went over to Jaz' place and played Phase 10... I was doing horribly at the beginning (because Em was butt) but at the end I won! buhahahha.... It was a long game, but it was interesting and exciting, so now i'm looking to purchase a set for myself (and once again defeat the evil eM!)

Friday, nothing exciting.

Saturday, my cousins (Alex and Bonnie) and eM and I came to work to decorate. 4 hours... Didn't think that it would take so longs, but some of the lights went out after we put everything up. We had to change each bulb only to find out that they were all good except for one loose wire... what a waste of time... Oh well it was fun times... :D Took the kids to shopping, Laserquest, movies (we watched New Moon... not that great..) and then we went to Medieval Times (the kids, us and Desmond...) I'm still loving the 1/2 chicken, but once again I didn't finish it... oh well~ maybe next time ;)

Maybes...

I hate answers like that... a definite answer would be good... yes or no... simple? it sure make life a lot simpler!

Snowboarding Season!



I am estatic, eagerly anticipating for snowboarding season to commence! Until that moment, I didn't really think that I was going to snowboard... but now it feels real~ Lately people has been scaring me silly warning that it will be difficult and that I'd hurt myself. We also inquired about the butt-pad (em warned me it will hurt a lot when I fall...) I'm not tooo crazy about them tho, they look like fitted grownup diapers... haha... I still have a long way to go to them... I think ^_^
(side) note: I know that it is NOT a guitar...

----------

Note: The rest of my snowboarding gears include the following:
  • White Flow bindings
  • White Flow Lotus BOA snowboots
  • White Snowpants
  • White Jacket
  • Black BollĂ© Helmet
  • Black gloves...
  • Goggles!
Your typical Snow Bunny.... :)

BBT, birthday cake for grandma and Medieval Times!

Happy Birthday Grandma! This is the first time in years since we got to celebrate my grandma's birthday! Big feast! lots of yummy food and Em got grandma a mango mousse :D So good! :D

I love going to Oasis... and we meet up with some wonderful people (Cat and Sahan) for some snacks. I've been craving for bbt, although next time I think I will stick to the honeydew... or just plain grape black tea... no tapioca or litchi jelly for me! Em got a little wierd... hehe....


For our 11th month Em took me to Medieval Times! Omg... it was an unforgettable experience! Our blue raspberry loaded with 1/4 vodka started our night. We had soup and bread (yum yums)... Another cool thing we noted was the fact that the menu was printed on the napkins... we bought some wetnaps just in case they don't provide them... I had no idea I was going to be served 1/2 a chicken! Apperantly I wasn't Canadian enough, cuz the 10 year old kid beside me finished it and the rest of his meal! Gosh! If I only knew I'd trained the day before and stuff myself silly so my tummy would be expanded~ LoLs... the ribs was also excellent. I want to go back again :D Maybe when Alex and Bonnie are over for the week we'll take them there! ^_^ Evil cousin with her own agenda! lols... We were cheering for our Yellow Knight, who happened to be Em's old jits buddy from grade 9! small world~ :D The week ended off with us just bumming around the house... Good way to unwind... just wish there ws MORE time...

Memory~

If I say it often enough, if I write it out often enough, maybe, just maybe I will remember.

Just thinking about how I can't even remember the name of the cosmetic or skin care product I use. I mean I look at it every day when I wake up and before I go to bed. But I can't remember the brand if my life depended on it. How bad is my memory? I say things I don't remember saying. I do things I don't remember doing. AHH~ Very frustrated...

Repetition does not help T^T

Happi Birthday my love! :D

:D So for the past 3 weeks I've gathered bits and pieces for this day :D Everythings almost done... just waiting to see him tonight so that it can all begin XD soooo nervous~~

~~~~~

Updated on the next day!~

When Em got home, I made him pick my dress for the evening :D we then proceed to play a guessing game of where his birthday present is hiding... I had previously given him two bottles of my fave cologne (which he thought was the only gift he was getting this year...) Man... I didn't know he was so bad at guessing :P he got the first 2 guesses wrong.... thankfully he got the last one right! :D He liked his two new shirts, and ended up wearing one of them this evening. We arrived on time at Atmosfera for a romantic 'souper aux deux' :D

Sry for the dim pic! N95 not so good at taking pics in the dark! plus, I didn't want to use flash and bother the other customers there... Our waitress (which I didn't get the name of) was excellent! short of staffs for the night she was the bartender, waitress and hostess... Loved it there~

Bday boi~ 2 hungry 2 smile

We got a drink each, the Grasshopper and the Chocolate Monkey :D & for appetizer we got the Antipasto Misto... I think thats how you spell it... anyways... it was delicious! I loved the calamari and the seafood on it... its a huge portion but it was gone before I can take a few more snaps~


As for the entree we had the Mixed Grilled Feast for two, featuring lamb, striploin and spicy italian sausage (which was tooo spicy for me) It was cooked to perfection! Medium we ordered, and medium we got! :D

We had desserts at Sweet Avenue, the place where we first meet up after 4 years of silence... They changed the menu on us T^T I found it hard to navigate cuz the order form was in chinese, and neither of us can read it~ haha... but it was alright... the waitress helped us :D
After dessert we went home and eM opened up the rest of his presents. He loved it.
~The End~
**Oh no wait... I also gave him his birthday beats! haha...

1st Halloween Weekend w. Em!

Setting: Work
Mood: :D happi
Thought: I'm so glad I got an extra hour of sleep :D

~~~~~

:D it's already Halloween before I knew it~ We spent the morning running errands/paying bills, but we finally got around to trying the sausages we eyed last weekend at Dixie Outlet! Em tried the mild Polish and I had the honey garlic. Loved it. The flavor was actually different... Although Em said that his wasn't spicy enough... Of course... he put so much stuff on his i'm not sure if he can taste the sausage at all... hehe... When we were eating the sausages there were a lot of zombies walking around... I thought I was in the middle of a film or sth... but no... it was Zombie Madness and people donated money to get their faces painted... a lot of them were dancing to Thriller whenever it was playing... very interesting experience. I want to try it out next year, and I will be dressed for the occasion :D


a recent picture of us :D

Sunday we finally tried the new Cora near eMs. We shared a western Crepomelette and cheese + ham panini, plus some toast and lots of fruits... Lots of vitamin C's today :D


I finally took a picture of when we go 'walk' the dogs... honestly it feels more like 'walk the humans' Jobi and Guru pull sooo much... but by the end of the walk they were more relaxed.... As eM and I leave to go to Costco, Jobi kept whinning and stuck her head out of the fence... she wanted to walk some more! it looked soo silly... thought I'd share it on my blog... (note: she managed to get her head out)



BIG wanton for lunch... 4 of them is TOO much plus the noodle. I guess i can't really eat that much...



We spent the afternoon suit shopping for Em at Moore's, it was an interesting experience, I've never spent so much time in a store that doesn't have things for girls... :D It was fun, he ended up getting two nice suits with shirts and ties and... cufflinks! :D (I didn't know my man was SOO handsome in a suit ;) haha... he's just tooo cute...)
