Romzi & Juleha

Romzi & Juleha
Last Sunday, Mommy, Cik Ti and I went to the Esplanade to watch the play 'The Love Story of Romzi & Juleha' by Teater Kami It's a play in Malay, based on Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, but set in post-war Singapore.

Romzi comes from a Bawean family, while Juleha is Javanese. So there was a lot of Boyan and Jawa mixed together with the Melayu. Wah not so easy to understand!

We absolutely loved the costumes and the pancaragam music! The acting was believable and I especially liked Buang's (Benvolio) character. The downer was the makcik and pakcik sitting beside Mommy who kept 'interacting' with the actors. The makcik actually shouted out 'Wah betul punye marah' when Tahjudeen (Tybalt) was doing his pissed off monologue. Haha cute ah makcik but damn annoying too.

Jason Mraz singing I'm Yours @ TvÄlpalatset, Stockholm1

My date with Mraz

My date with Mraz

I've been keeping this a secret from everyone but I have a new boyfriend. Yep Jason and I have been an item for a few weeks now but we've been keeping it a secret from everyone. What you don't believe me?

Well here's evidence. He was in Stockholm last weekend and gave me a call and asked me out. He gave me his new CD and signed it for me and then sang 'I'm yours' just for me.
The happy couple. I heart you too Jason.

Nyum-Nyum.
The weather was rather lovely a few weeks ago..so we barbecued quite a bit then.
DD bought a new bbq set!

We had some burgers...

And some steak and some tandoori chicken..
And some salmon...
And some mushrooms and lamb..

And we had some carpaccio too as usual :)

And I used some of my own herbs to marinate the meat! :))

And these were some really killer spicy turkey skewers.

And don't ask me to rotate the pics...i'm lazy :p

Poland (from Nene's cam)

Poland (from Nene's cam)

I don't know either why we decided to go there. But it wasn't so bad really. It only really sucked that first day. But I actually loved the trip in the end ;)

So here are some BETTER pics of the monuments. Who says I suck at taking pics :p

And here's Arlin at this cafe I loved because the tables and chairs were actually part of a huge swing so we were swinging away the whole time!

More pics of Arlin posing around Warsaw :)
This Polish pakcik all decked in uniform. He was part of the parade on Constitution Day.

And we also saw this Polish couple getting married in a church in the Old Town.

Mini Golf sounds WAY better than Midget Golf.



We've been talking about mini golf for years now...and finally we found someplace here a few weekends ago. That was actually quite fun...I was pretty horrible initially...but I think in the end I didn't fare too badly did I?


Welcome!


Me.

And me.

And me again...nampak sah tak tau main..

I thought this one was cool.

Action aje...hehe nampak macam bagus eh this pic?

Okay I still lost in the end...but that's because DD beats me at almost everything! Oh except SINGSTAR :D
