Hamilton City - Part 2

These are some of the highlights on the way to town...

Bacardi - like my favouritest drink ever! - is just 2 steps away from our hotel Rosedon. We walk pass it at least 2x a day. I for one, drool everytime i pass it cos, have i forgotten to mention? I am the greatestest fan of Bacardi Rum OK?!? [I'm sounding drunk already just by blogging about it.] Anyway, Bacardi occupies an architecturally modern building with the double volume ceiling, glass facade and water features. Bermuda actually makes a lot of things with rum e.g. rum cakes. haven't tasted those yet, will describe more once i get a hold of one.




Along Pitts Bay Road (which is where we stay) to town, other than Bacardi, these are the other buildings you'll see. They face the harbour so there are times when you can hear the "horns" of the ships (are they called horns? i'll find out on wiki later.) I half suspect these pink and yellow ones are apartments (highly expensive ones because of their location) but hao-e thinks they are offices. I dun mind working in them i tell you, but don't they just look so sweet and edible? (the white portions look like icing dun they?)



Beside the nice pink and yellow building on Front Street (Pitts Bay Road leads on to Front Street, and its called "Front" Street cos its the street "front"ing the harbour. Get it? i made that up myself haha but dun you think it sounds logical?!) this modenista building looks imposing, and deadly. You see those nice-looking fern-like bushes near the steps? Those have deadly thorns on them. All of them have thorns. "Sha qi hen zhong" ah... And right after this scary building is Bermudiana Road where hao-e's office is situated. His office isn't much to look at from the outside so just imagine a really boring 4 storeyed cream coloured building on the side of a street with boring windows and black lettering spelling out the building's name. Nothing much to look at, so its not going to appear on this page. Heh.

3.5 more working days. my mind is on holiday! last evening's kickboxing class totally killed me! i huffed and puffed and threatened to punch my imaginary opponent senseless, but in the end, it was i that suffered, not the air molecules that got knocked around. my body is aching like a 90-year-old who's just completed 100 push-ups. i couldn't sleep last night because of the pain. i had to wake hao-e up to massage my shoulder-blades which were so sore and is still kicking up a ruckus behind me. my gosh! i tis old and feeble.

Back Safe and Sound

This is my first post since we left Bermuda for Singapore more than 3 weeks ago. We are battling serious jet lag this time. it might be the age-factor (yikes!) or because we didn't rest properly on the flights (yes plural!) back cos we were busy trying to exhaust all the new movies on krisworld, or maybe a combination of both lah. but both of us have been trying very hard to keep awake at 3pm. yes, the sleep monster strikes at that hour! thank God we are going to remove time saving tonight, so we have 1 less hour to correct this weekend. talking about movies, twilight was amazingly easy on the eye! although i hesitate to call ourselves twilight converts given that i was highly skeptical at first. but the eye candy in the form of Rob Pattersin/Edward Cullen is really irresistible (did you know Rob Pattersin was Cedric in Harry Potter??) .... argh. i wanna get bitten by this vamp too lor! BITE ME! Hao-e even bought New Moon (the sequal) to read this weekend and i spent almost ...

Back To Reality

It's over! We're finally married (in the eyes of the Church!). It was really pretty fun last sat, thank God for the sunny weather (a bit hot lah, but at least it didn't rain till after), for the wonderful guests and my fantastic friends. hope it wasn't too uncomfortable under the sun for everyone.
