Dear Diary | May 2026 Edition

Hello, May ❤ 

May has been an eventful month, with plenty of excitements lining up throughout the month. Glad to have some pockets of time to breathe, amid the rush of demanding days and restless schedules.

Love from Shanghai ❤

04.05.2026 | Yay! Finally got my hands on the ultra cute McHugs skier penguin which I saw since the last Taipei trip - now my fluffy little favourite. Aside from that, I am blessed to be showered with so many thoughtful gifts from Shanghai, a city named after my initials. Thank you :') 

McHugs Penguin Galore ❤ 

06.05.2026 | The story with my McHugs penguin didn’t end there. I am so grateful to collaborate with the brand for their flagship store opening at VivoCity Singapore, making it even more special with another adorable penguin joining my ever-growing penguin family.

Lean & Rich Bakery @ UE Square 

09.05.2026 | A café-hopping weekend led me to Lean & Rich, a Korean bakery where the name tells its own story. "Lean" for light, low-fat dough, and "Rich" for indulgent bakes filled with butter, eggs, and sugar. True to its name, every bite here strikes a balance between the two.

My favourite? The croissant! No glossy shine, but deliciously crisp. Each bite is bursting with deep, buttery richness. Would love to be back here for more. 

Home reunion ❤ 

16.05.2026 | Homebound. For great food, close companions and happy chats. Thank you Papa for always pampering me with delicious bowl of bird's nest! 

520 Bouquet ❤

20.05.2026 | Happy 520! Miles apart, but he still managed to shower me with a stunning bouquet for the special occasion. Paired with this beautiful handmade portrait we got from Chinatown a couple of weeks ago, my heart is so full. Such lovely gift! 

Love from Hong Kong ❤

25.05.2026 | It's been a year since the last visit to Hong Kong. Seeing these gifts from homeland definitely brings back alot of memories. Lovin' the familiar flavours of cookies, coffee, milk tea and everything in between. Thank you :') 

Punggol exploration day! ❤

27.05.2026 | It was a public holiday and we were here exploring Punggol Coast for the second time. We stumbled upon the all-new Punggol Coast Mall and finally checked out the newest Two Men Bagel House outlet. We dug into the Finding Nemo - an outlet-exclusive, pure-seafood bagel packed with fried fish, a sunny egg, and rich salted egg sauce. So gooood! 

KFF Badminton Open 2026 @ Singapore Indoor Stadium

30.05.2026 | Ending the month of May with watching world-class badminton live. As it was my first time here, the experience was thrilling, especially when I heard the sharp, satisfying "crack" of every perfectly struck smash. Elite smashes can travel over 400km/h, creating a truly explosive experience!

❤❤❤

Till then, see you in June!
