Here, a more comprehensive view of Glace Patisserie. Exciting, because I'm part of it, though in bits and pieces. Still it's a start. :D

So what happened was a filming crew came to film our patisserie for their Sugar Rush series, which will be aired via razortv.com.sg. The objective was to capture the family japanese patisserie I suppose; you guys can judge for yourself. The filming process was awkward. We were told to act as natural as possible, which was impossible ofcourse. I don't think it is very nice to show people the opera sing-a-long sessions nor our attempts to teach chef and his wife standard Singapore English- Singlish. Therefore, in every sense, we were as unnatural as possible. At least we tried.

Well, enjoy!


Part one






Part two






Part three






Part four





End.

Tastes in Music

I work with two incredibly old guys. Old in speech patterns. Extremely backward taste in music. But gosh! I do enjoy it very much. Am I becoming old-ish myself?

Glace Patisserie should be called glace karaoke instead. We have two old radio transmitters singing shockingly old songs. (登丽君 is alright but 欧阳飞飞?!) Even Chef and Ami is joining in the getai fun... ._. I shall bring my ipod speaker and attempt to educate them the goodness of my brand of Heidi music. Or as Weiloon so kindly puts it: 小鬼听的音乐.

Conversations

Have you ever seen two sunflowers share a conversation?

Work in Glace Patisserie is slowly becoming comfortable for me. Now that I am coming to terms with the hours, the work, the routine, the people, I actually enjoy working, very much.

Andrew's Wedding

The wedding event of the year. The first wedding in the family. Andrew, my eldest cousin, to Jiwen, our newest family member.

To Jiwen,
Congratulations and welcome to the family. :)
Wedding, as all weddings do, is a perfect excuse to wear really nice, pile on thick make-up and be complimented for it. Also, it creates the environment to meet people you haven't met for 30 years. (applies to my father, not me, I'm not even 20) Incidentally, you may even walk pass your cousin without recognising her due to the thick thick make-up. (joking!)

My immediate family. Though a little broken and all, we still take photos together. It's good right?

My extended family, 3rd generation, in other words, my cousins.





The girls have grown really well. All those ugly ducklings have blossomed. Seeing them looking their best at the wedding made me feel a little more humble, just a little... :)

May Andrew and Jiwen be blessed with a marriage that will last till the end of their time.
