I have been looking forward to Taylor Swift's perfume Wonderstruck being available in Singapore and Changi Airport is the first in Asia to launch it and you can purchase it from today. I love the beautiful and charming design of the bottle and guess its time to make a trip to the airport ;) The 50ml bottle retails for S$76 and the 100ml is S$92. Price is the same whether you are flying or not, since GST is also absorbed in the public areas before departure immigration.

Namie Amuro - Love Story

I'm currently watching Japanese drama "Watashi ga Renai Dekinai Riyuu" and loves it as it is really entertaining and i love the theme song of the drama by Namie Amuro. She is one of my favorite Japanese singer and the last time Amuro provided a theme song for a ‘Getsu9′ drama was in January 1997 when ”Can You Celebrate?” was used in drama "Virgin Road". 



"Watashi ga Renai Dekinai Riyuu" is like the Japanese version of "Sex & The City" and talks about 3 friends searching for love and supporting each other along the way and i admire the close bond shared by the 3 friends in the drama as they do have their disagreements living together but they are still friends at the end of the day and will always be there if one of them is in trouble. It is not always easy in real life to find true friends who will always be there for you and truly cares for you and do treasure them if you have them around you ;) I have encounter people who are just friends in name and does the disappearing act when you need them or are just too self centered to care about others and only live in a 'me' world. I'm glad i have some close pals whom i know will always be there for me and i will also be there for them. We do not meet up frequently as everyone is busy with work and family but it is always a joy when we find time to hang out together :)

In "Watashi ga Renai Dekinai Riyuu", Karina plays the main character Fujii Emi, an employee of a lighting company who is secretly in love with her ex boyfriend cum long time buddy and workmate and finds it annoying to look for new love. Her roommates are played by Yoshitaka Yuriko and AKB48’s Oshima Yuko. Will write more about the drama when i find the time as am busy going for Chinese New Year gatherings recently and have also been down with a bad cough and the medications makes me drowsy. Guess i have to cut down on all the feastings during this Chinese New Year period.

My friend's kids are so lovable, adorable and full of energy. Hehe we wanted them to stand properly and pose for a nice picture holding the mandarin oranges but they were more interested in showing us their kungfu skill :)

My brother and sister in law treated us to delicious Thai Food @ Thaitogo after our visit to their home :) The restaurant offers islandwide delivery service and their food is really delicious and the prices reasonable. I'm already planning to order from them through their website when my friends come over for Chinese New Year gatherings.
