DOME

As the title suggest, this post will be on Dome! I've had eaten at Dome twice. Once, almost 3 years back with Vanessa at Parkway and the second, yesterday at Scotts Square when I was out with Lynn(:

I finally met up with Lynn after sooooo long. Even though we are in the same school, we are in diff class so it's a little harder for us to meet up in school. (PS. We've been in the same school for 7 years going on to 8(: ) We also watched Star Trek yesterday. I was a little confused by the plot but overall, did understand the story. We watched at Lido and wow, the sound effects were sooooo good! Definitely was amazed and I kind of felt like I was at a stimulator ride hahaha.

Okay back to the main point. We had dinner at Dome because Lynn has nvr tried it before and we were just too tired to find another restaurant to eat at. I ordered the Aglio Olio and it wasn't that fantastic but it was okay I guess.









 BUT THE MAIN POINT OF THIS POST REALLY IS OF THE CHOCOLATE LAVA CAKE. MY GOD IT'S SO GOOD THIS NEEDS TO BE IN CAPS TO CAPTURE YOUR ATTENTION. Okay hahaha now that I've gotten your attention, we ordered the Chocolate Lava with Gelato for dessert! I'm crazy over Chocolate Lava Cakes and the one at Dome is absolutely the best!!! The cake was piping hot. When I had a bite, I felt like I was drinking mega hot soup. But it was really really good! The chocolate melts in your mouth... and with the Gelato ice cream at the side, it was a perfect combination of hot and cold. Plus, it only cost $6.90. Will definitely go back one day just to eat the cake! I still rmb the very first bite that we took. Our expression was pretty much indescribable. I don't even know how to describe our priceless expressions hahaha. But we were praising the cake with every single bite.





I know it doesn't look anything close to spectacular but you know the saying it's what on the inside that counts? I know it's meant for humans but I'm gona use it for this cake! It was just so delicious and mouth watering. And now, I'm craving for the cake again. Even though it's the best thing I've ever tasted, I'm glad I shared it with Lynn cause I doubt I could have finished it by myself. It's not huge but it's really chocolaty. Best $6.90 spent ever. I'll definitely give it 3 thumbs up and you should go try too!

Well we had Takoyaki too at my favourite stall :D It's the one at Ion basement. I really love Takoyaki and will nvr get sick of it. Hehehehe. Little things that makes me happy



Oh yeah! Lynn and I coincidentally carried the same bag hahaha. I felt like we're twins or smth

End of MYE!

I am so so so glad MYEs are finally over!!!! Okay I didn't struggle much during the exams but History and GP were on the same day. Such a killer! Don't get me wrong. History is my favourite subject but the part on memorising it is a little .... Yeah. I didn't have to study on Thurs since Fri was a holiday so I took an 'afternoon' nap at 5pm. I was planning to wake up at 8pm but surprise surprise, I slept all the way to the next day and only woke up at 9.30am. That's 16.5h of sleep! Guess exams really have taken a toll on me. Hope I'll do well!

After our last paper on Tues, Jolene and I went to NEX for lunch to celebrate :D We had lunch at Pastamania and I had my usual Creamy Chicken. I actually finished the whole plate for once. Usually, I can't cause it's just way too creamy after awhile but surprisingly, I could! Guess I was really hungry.





So we had a fabulous lunch, talking and doing what girls do best. Hahaha. Oh! Did I forget to mention there were cute, tiny, little kids at some workshop at Pastamania?! If I'm not wrong, they were learning how to make Pizzas. They were so adorable! When I looked into the room, one of the children actually smiled and waved to me.





Oh yeah! We also went to get Froyo because they were having a student promotion where your 2nd cup is at half the price.





After lunch, we walked around for a little but honestly, there's nth much at NEX other than food stalls but we couldn't leave because we needed to be back at school a little ltr for an Econs outing. We decided to go to the library and watch New Girl! It really is an entertaining show and all you guys should watch it :D Then we went to get dessert. (Ps. Yes, I know we eat a lot)



Then we met up with our friends for our Econs outing and that wraps up the day(:

Dreamcatchers





















This is a super overdue post about my sister's dance production. My sister is part of NUS Temasek Hall dance team and they came up with a production called Dreamcatchers about a month back. I went to watch it and it made me realise how much I love to perform. The adrenaline rush I'd get when I'm up on stage, the many hours put into training, the amount of photo spamming I have with my girls, the feeling of feeling so accomplished after a performance... Well the performance was amazing and my sister can dance! Hehehe I guess dancing runs in the family. Maybe my little brother would grow up and fall in love with dancing as well.

This was what I wore to the performance and obviously, the reason I got this dress was because of its heart shape cut out at the back!!! It's so pretty!! I've always seen dresses like this on Instagram but nvr would know where to find one in Singapore. So glad I found this one. The length is a little too long for me though but it'd be alright if I wear heels. I'm actually considering sending it for alteration so that I can wear it more often.

Because the performance was indoors, I had to bring a jacket along in case it gets chilly. I paired it with my tweed jacket from Zara so that it doesn't look so plain. Along with my floral bracelets and colour block heels, it gave it an extra sparkle. Really love this look and I can't wait to wear this dress again!

Proud as a Peacock

















This was what I wore when I went out with Victoria yesterday(: It was so nice to finally get to see her again. We've been friends for 6 years so far! So I just bought this skirt from Kissjane on Thursday and couldn't wait to wear it! I initially wanted the one in black but it was sold out alr ): Nvm, I have this now hehe. I felt a little mature wearing this though. It wasn't my usual sweet, girly kind of outfit. Nevertheless, the peacock feather prints are really really pretty! I think it's because of the colour that made it look a little mature. I thought that in order for the skirt to stand out, it needs to be paired with a basic top. So I wore a basic black T and black flats and I'm all set and ready to go(:

If you know me, you'd know that what I wore today isn't really what you'd expect me to wear. I'm more of a floral kind of person but when I saw this romper, I knew I had to get it! There's smth about it that's just really different. It's just plain white but I found the studs at the collar really unique. It stood out to me. A change in style is always good once in a while:D That way, ppl won't know what to expect! Definitely a romper that I'd keep for a while. Paired it with a gold bracelet which made the ensmeble looked more glam and my comfy sailor shoes gave it a little pop of colour. The romper is a little sheer though but other than that, it was perfect. AA has it in black too but I felt the black one is a little too much. Just a personal opinion cause I prefer white hahaha.

Canele

Yesterday, my mum, brother and I decided to have some pastry from Canele(: I've had macaroons from Canele before but I've nvr tried anything else from there. When I was flipping through the menu, there were so many food that I'd like to try! Here's some photos of what we had.



Being a macaroon fanatic, I couldn't help but order some macaroons. I can't really rmb what the flavours were but if I'm not wrong, they were hazelnut, rose and strawberry. Needless to say, I absolutely loved it! However, I still prefer the flavours from TWG though. Just a personal opinion.



My mum ordered a Lemon Tart and doesn't it look exquisite? It's small and dainty hahaha. She couldn't finish it on her own though cause she found it a little too sour. My brother and I gladly helped her finish it haha. I found it okay since I've always loved to eat sour food. This is a must have for all you lemon lovers out there!



This of course belonged to my brother. Chocolate crepes!!! I wanted to order it too but thought that ordering 2 plates would be a little so much. Hence, I took some from my brother. I've found my new love for crepes! It was soooooo good. I'm definitely looking forward to trying it again.

Ballerina



















Here's a little outfit I put tgt when I went to visit my dad at Orchard Conrad yesterday(: So I was looking for something that was perfect for an afternoon tea and had a kind of dreamy feel to it. When I was looking through my wardrobe, I found this pretty little fishtail skirt. I actually bought the top and skirt together last year for a Hi Tea event. I haven't worn it for a pretty long time so I decided to wear this out. What I love most about the skirt if obviously it's colour! It's such a pretty shade of pink and I always feel like a princess when I wear it hahaha. And I love the feeling of spinning around in it and when the wind blows. It'll flow and I feel all girly  (Not that I'm not) haha. This blouse is from The Velvet Dolls and is made of lace material. The only problem with it is that the buttons are pretty far apart. So when I wear it, I have to constant pull the blouse up :/ but other than that, it really is really pretty and comfy as well. Here are a few more photos of this outfit when I wore it for the Hi Tea event.
