What do you want to do before you die?

“Preparing for death is one of the most empowering things you can do. Thinking about death clarifies your life.” - Candy Chang

And yes, I do think of death quite a lot.
How would I die? Where? Who with?
What would I have accomplished?
How would people react to my death?

Love these two movie opening scenes. Probably made more dramatic, but still very beautifully done. I want to visit these places. As well as Café des 2 Moulins, one of the filming locations for Amélie. Hopefully one day...

Goodbye August

Celebrated JX & JY's birthdays! We gave them a little surprise (yes, we do love to give each other heart attacks like this), went to the zoo, and then a simple dinner at a hawker centre. Video diary below :)

In other news, went to check out Carpenter & Cook with Dewi, after reading about all the hype.

I like it there. Quaint, but also felt a little like a vintage museum. Would love it if not for the crowd. I really enjoyed their famous Passionfruit Meringue Tart. The tart base is sturdy, it doesn't crumble when you cut through it. I wished there was more passionfruit curd though. Will go back there very soon to try out other desserts!

 Tea time for two, minus my tea and D's raisin scone

I also ate lots of pho bo this week. Yummm. There can never be too much pho, I'm serious.

Took a little walk at the Singapore Art Museum on Wednesday. Free admission for this month!

Then Friday, to Night Festival 2012. Started off at SOTA, to SAM, 8Q and then National Museum. Love looking at the pretty light displays (Night Lights) and interesting exhibitions up. There are also performances around the area. They are still open next weekend so be sure not to miss out cuz there are lots to see and experience :)

So long holidays are here. Unfortunately though partner and I will be spending most of our days in the lab doing our final year project, starting tomorrow morning. I just hope we'll have enough samples and finish up as soon as possible. Then I can breathe easy and enjoy the remaining of the holidays, if there will be any, that is.

Been spending most of the weekend watching movies. Lots and lots of them. About ten or so now.
3 Idiots, Becoming Jane, Forrest Gump, One Day, Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, The King's Speech... just to name a few.

And because I was bored, I did this to my room wall.
