I am officially 15 years of age. To be completely frank, I don't feel any different (I told my mum I only felt more full after all the food we ate), but I did enjoy an amazing week :-)

Also, big thanks for all the birthday greetings!

Today's post is a recap/documentation of the past four days, in which I spent my time eating food, taking photos, and eating more food. As always, hope you enjoy!

THURSDAY

I met up with my friend Anna! A fellow July birthday-er, we had a little celebration at Wild Honey, a popular all-day breakfast place. I got the most amazing gift of a stationary set from kikki. K, and probably a year's supply of candy.

Spanish Hash - diced chorizo, spanish ham and potatoes, served with poached eggs, Hollandaise sauce, and brioche :-)

The European - Poaches eggs and Hollandaise sauce wrapped in prosciutto, served on toasted Brioche and sautéed mushrooms

Everything was so good, but lunch left us in a food coma, so we went window shopping (as one often does)

We walked around Orchard, expressing the love/hate relationship between the Kim K game and trying on shirts that looked like washing machine bags. We also ended up going to The Editor's Market twice! (three claps please)

SATURDAY

Arrived at the Westin! Gorgeous hotel, extremely large rooms, and amazing food. My family got lucky and we got a corner room, so we got a fantastic view of the Singapore skyline!

In that COS bag lies by birthday present (!!!!) The mother guarding it though...

Happy Justine, excited by the large bathroom.

Oh, the struggles of putting on a sweater

I had lunch at Jamie's Italian! It's one of my all-time favorite restaurants because Italian food is absolutely amazzzzzing

Tried an ice tea with a basil infusion :-)

I ordered a mushroom and melted mozzarella risotto! Second time ordering this, but just as amazing.

The mum and dad ordered a truffle pasta and the ultimate burger. The presentation of everything was amazing as well. It was very neat, yet it had a rustic feel.

My dad told the waiter it was my birthday, so he put a little candle in the berry pannacotta! It was amazing, definitely recommend going to this restaurant if you love Italian food. (or food in general because everything was to die for)

After lunch, we just wandered around the shopping mall. I stopped by Uniqlo and got a pair of black skinnies for fall! Despite living in season-less Singapore, I still try following the fashion seasons. (and black is a perfect color so I can wear these anytime :-))

Dessert was also one of Sunday's highlights! We got a butterscotch fudge brownie, layered chocolate cake, and chocolate tart from Awfully Chocolate instead of a traditional birthday cake. Still delicious, but left me in a chocolate-induced coma.

The rest of my birthday passed by normally; I did have a nice bath using the Avobath bath bomb from Lush, and we ended the day with Japanese yakitori for dinner.

MONDAY

Checking out day :"( We still had time to grab breakfast though! I enjoyed some pancakes, served alongside berries, honey, and whipped cream.

And now I am home, sitting on a sofa eating peanut butter and drinking some tea. Miss the weekend, but glad to be enjoying the comforts of home.

Today's Outfit - after checking out, we just bought some groceries and headed back home, so I basically spent the entire day in a good old pair of pyjamas.

Thanks for reading! I was sadly reminded that summer vacation is more than halfway done, so I'll be trying to make good use of my time. Meeting up with my friends this week again, so a post may come! I'll also be taking badminton lessons and exercising more frequently to try and get back into shape after all this food.

Hope you enjoyed the post! Feel free to comment as always x
