I got invited to a birthday party last Saturday by my friend, Sandy. We have been friends since our secondary school years! Sometimes it's amazing to think back how long you guys have known your friends for, isn't it?

Her theme for her party was actually "The Good Old Days" and it was up to us to define. But her decorations were more on the theme "Retro" so I decided to go retro on my whole outfit and makeup!


I've always been dreaming of attending parties with the themes intact. For me, it is very hard to see people going to parties with their outfit matching the theme. I find that kind of sad.

I personally feel the importance of having a theme for a party is to have people dress up like the party and feel like they are in the party. It makes everyone feel more party-ish, no?

I was surprised at what I saw at the party. I don't think I have seen a party so close to my expectations before. So I was probably the most excited one in taking pictures there. Haha. Sandy really did an amazing job on noticing details making sure the party decorations and everything were perfect. You'd know what I mean when I show you!

The first thing I got attracted to was definitely the photo-taking area!


Not to forget, the awesome and really cool props for photo-taking too! I never imagined she would come up with so many cool props, honestly!
So I couldn't help taking lots of pictures with as much props as I could.


I was quite the good sport I even brought my own prop - my very own polka dot sunglasses which I bought from Cineleisure quite some ago (:


I'm sure you guys can tell i'm so forced to do that in the very last picture. Let's focus on how retro those props are..

Another one of the most eye-widening experience there was the CAKE. I just didn't expect to see this huge beautiful cake in real life for the first time in my life at this party.

This thing has been so popular lately I see people talking about it all over social media. If you haven't heard, it's an iphone/android app called "DAYRE".

I wasn't sure what I was going to do with it at first giving the fact that I have so many social media accounts including Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and this space. (may have others but these are the more popular ones)

But I finally decided to make "Dayre" my near personal pocket-sized diary which I pen down my thoughts and summaries of my day.

Do you still remember times when people still write a diary? Those where you stay up in the middle of the night writing about your feelings alone in a physical book you called diary? Me neither.. I kind of miss those.

Hey, dayre may be a good place to start again. At least i'm looking at it this way. Well except it won't be personal like the book diary, only near personal. Good enough though right! TRY IT! :D

I have seen many people talking about reserving usernames quick before yours gets taken up and I don't see why you shouldn't. I have already!

I'll show you my profile although it looks a little pathetic -.-



Something different about it from the usual blogging app is that it helps strive to make your blogs a little more interesting with stickers. Stickers that can describe your feelings. Like this one post I have:


And a few number of other stickers besides this:



And they're cute too. Haha. Aren't they perfect for a diary when you need to make your post interesting but at the same time, express your feelings?

Point of this post is to convince you to start "DAYRE"; this space for you to write down whatever you're feeling like whenever you feel like ranting, venting your anger or sharing your happiness. JUST ANYTHING (:

If you did start it, I hope my Dayre is interesting enough for you to follow! My username's "crayyzee" - http://www.dayre.me/crayyzee

Alrightttt, see you on there or something!

yet again! Remember when I blogged about Blisshouse a while back? If you haven't read that, it is worth a read! BLISSED

If you have, we are best friends at this very moment. Because you would be in love with how amazing that place looks like I am. I mentioned that I have my regrets for not taking pictures WITH the place, aka, of the place with ME in it and that I will go back again for that.

AND I DID.

I was really lucky to have my cousin with me, who, is interested in taking her very first look at the place and became as excited as I was to take pictures. #girlsneeds #excusenot


They had a lunch deal promotion going on and what better chance to try their food than when they are having a promotion right?
So not only did I manage to take pics with me in it this time but also, I managed to try their food too.



The promotion came as sets so we all had an appetizer of pumpkin soup which tasted really delicious! Loved it. I mean, I already enjoy eating pumpkins alone. Pumpkin soup? No doubt that I wouldn't like it.


Coming to the main dish, I thought I was smart to order this dish which I have never heard of before just because I decided to be daring that day..

Looked really appetizing. The first few mouths of it was pretty refreshing and ok-tasting but when I was left with one big piece, I couldn't take it anymore.
The "fishy" taste started to come up more obvious each mouth I took. So YES, guilty was charged for wastage of food for me that day. I'm sorry..

That was quite an interesting fish with a lot of thin and tiny bones seen with every cut of it. I wasn't sure if those were edible but I think they were? I ate most of them because I was guessing they wouldn't serve a dish like this if the bones weren't edible.. right? I don't know.

The only thing I love about this dish is the sauce, carrots and potatoes. :D
They could give me one plate of this not as salad but as main dish and I'd be happy to finish them all!

This pasta which Valerie had wasn't very good as she commented. But I don't know. She has weird tastes because she actually really liked my fish. lol

My mom had this! I thought it looked really yummy and still looks yummy right now. She said it doesn't taste taste very nice :/

Valerie's mom had baked rice! Val's mom thought it was nice but Val didn't.

So overall, it is pretty obvious that our main dishes are quite disappointing to us. I was really hoping for better dishes served. Maybe because they were on promotion. But still.

However, I think the dessert may have helped in shooing away our miserableness a little. It was a combination of sourness and sweetness in a bowl.

Well enough of the food that doesn't give the place much justice. The decorations and atmosphere do! You will enjoy all these amateur modelling and and vain pictures I promise.





Did I mention how tourist-crazy we went after these pictures we took? We walked around probably taking pictures of/with every little thing. We'd be sorry if we didn't!
