I LOVE LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I PASSED LMUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But we'll get back to that...

SO yesterday, Susan and I spent the night at Sofitel!! Dad has membership to some golf club, and got a free night for us so we checked in at 2pm and went shopping from MC to DFO and everything in between (bought nothing...haha)!

Later that night, her fam + my fam + piano teacher had a beautiful dinner in No. 35...7 course taster menu OH MY LORD it was incredible!

No. 1; pre teaser (crab or something)

No. 2; sashimi crystal bay prawns - wakimi - organic white tea & apple ice
[forgot to take a pic since I didn't eat it cos 1) I hate prawn and 2) ...RAW PRAWN?]

No. 3; Pecora ricotta & yolk ravioli - "sous vide" hen wing - foie gras - cavelo nero

No. 4; David Blackmore's wagyu rib-eye - ms 9+ and creamed bintjes pine mushrooms - quince

No. 5; lime & sago soda

No. 6; Woodside goats curd - warm truffled manuka honey - lavender oil - brioche

No. 7; Iced coconut shards - dry lychee meringue - white rum jelly - jaina snow
[forgot to take a pic again...too busy digesting, haha]

And if you're wondering how I have an amazing memory for the menu, it's cos we got to take it home...I have NO idea what all the foreign food names mean, it's like Masterchef hahaha

Ladies (cold Susan wearing my jumper on my right, AND THE BEST PIANO TEACHER IN THE WORLD ON MY LEFT ♥ ! + very awesome mums)

Watched Keeping Mum until the pirated disc failed, then watched The Prince and Me cos...we're girls and we like bad predictable chick flicks HAHA. Chatted til 2am about girly things and fell asleep in out VERY SOFT BEDS WTF I was up to my eyeballs in mattress and pillow, no joke

--------------------------------------

SO TODAY, we woke up at 10:30, checked out an hour later and went to eat brunch somewhere...trekked all the way to Beetroot on Hardware Lane (URBAN!) and I had a ham&cheese croissant + their awesome hot chocolate with fairy floss on top yumm! Lame Susan watched me eat...

I got out my phone after brunch and I was like WTF why do I have 5 missed calls from Dad and home?? So I cbf'd calling them back and went walking around to find food for Susan...then I realised I had an sms on top of the missed calls

From Dad (who has great texting skills....) "Congratulations on your award of L-mas (LOL it's like xmas, but lmas...wtff). Well done, sophie. We are proud of you"

So I basically screamed in the middle of a salad bar...called mum, who was SOO angry that Dad delivered the news LOL. They were having a war of who could get through to me first :P

SO YUP, after that we watched The Proposal, which I thought was funny...I guess both of us were in a girly movie mode :) we considered Transformers, but neither of us were up for a long movie...

Bought shoes for the formal on the way home! From Nine West cos they're on sale...hahaha

MAKES ME SOOO TALL! Comfy enough to last for 4 hours without dropping dead with blisters, and nobody's gonna see my feet anyway. Actually starting to get excited about this formal business...didn't really give a crap til I got voted on the committee, cos organising tables/invites/music etc sounds really fun!

AMANDA AND I ARE GONNA ROCK OUR FLOOR LENGTH DRESSES! hahahaha
