Happy New Year 2010!
Ushered in the new year with a simple celebration with my dearest fluffy rabbit at Park Royal on Beach Road.
It was a last minute decision, and we only booked the room on New Year Eve in the morning! Thanks to James, we managed to get a room at their Orchid Club for 200+ bucks!
Mashimaro came over to pick me up from work and collect my barang barang from home, and off we went! Checked in at the Orchid Club on the 6th floor.
Frankly speaking, for the price that we are paying for the super peak period, I wasn't expecting much. Plus, the exterior of the hotel didn't really look that attractive!But upon entering the room, I must say that the room is pretty nice and decent! Very clean, cozy and spacious! (:
And the bed is really super comfy! Or maybe I was just plain tired from working!
I love the bathroom! The decor is very simple and minimal, but it gives off a squeaky clean feeling!
Opened one of the drawers, and this is what I saw! Maybe I'm the sua-ku one, but I've never came across any hotel who provides stationeries like these? Like stapler and bullets?
The not-so-nice view from our hotel! The only downside is that the hotel only has 6 stories, and we can't really catch the fireworks! ):
I was really having a case of horrible toothache due to my braces (the price to pay for being vain!) that day and Mashimaro tabao-ed beehoon soup for me for lunch! Totally no mood to eat anything at all! Ate panadol, rested enough and off we went to explore the other parts of hotel!
Wanted to look at their ballroom, but it was locked, so we went to the pool. The pool is located at the highest storey of the hotel, and they have this little pavilion area which I thought would be a pretty small and nice place for solemnization ceremonies! 
Off to the Orchid Club lounge for our complimentary snacks and tea next! Anyway, even though it was just "snacks and tea", it was more like dinner to us cause we ate at 6 plus and all these little snacks turn out to be pretty filling! 
And here's some of the food that we ate. The prawn roe sushi was really very, very yummy! Despite the pain, I think I still managed to like swallow 5 of them down! 
After our very satisfying 'dinner', took a stroll to Bugis Junction and bought all these yummlicious treats for supper later! Anyway, the Jack n Jill Salmon Sushi Potato Chips is like my favourite though the portion is pathetically little! Please go try it if you haven't! (:
Counted down to 2010 with my dearest Mashimaro by my side! (: We were so tired that we totally concussed and overslept and totally missed our breakfast the next morning! Off to Clinton's house for our first steamboat (and many more to come) for the new year!
Spot a glimpse of Mashimaro packing up in the background!
Had a simple but memorable 2010! Thank you Mashimaro! (: 
That aside, it was really a pain getting back to work today after the super looooong weekend! The office was eerily quiet, and traffic was really good! Which explains why I was able to go off at 5.30pm sharp today because the bosses weren't around!
2 more days to go, looking forward to the weekend for more sleep! ):
