Happy Year of the Ox!

Blargh, I super suck at this posting 'a picture a day' thing.  Life just gets in the way! I think I'll have to re-evaluate this resolution. Perhaps a photo every other day? 

But I had a great weekend otherwise:

1. Did a photoshoot with my awesome x 1 million brother, who was gracious enough to lend me his face for some studio practice.
2. Had homemade hot pot for my Chinese New Year Eve dinner. Nothing beats eating at home, seriously :) 
3. Watched Tropic Thunder. "You never go full retard." hahahhahah....you have to watch the movie.

Hotpot Birthday

It's my Dad's birthday today! I'm not going to disclose how old he is this year, but he's another year older ;) We celebrated prematurely last night with hotpot at iCookBuffet. It was probably one of the coldest nights we've had so far, so it was a fitting dinner. 

It was my first time going to iCook, and it's a bit different from the traditional hotpot or shabu shabu restaurants. You basically have one large plate that you use to pick your own raw food & vegetables at a buffet, which you bring back to your table and cook in your own soup base. The food was okay, but I probably sat in the worst spot ever (I got to face the door where the cold drafts would waft in - in my direction I might add). So I had a cold air and steam facial pretty much the entire time I ate.

I got an interesting fortune cookie out of the whole experience though. We'll see whether it'll happen :)
