Why can I never get a straight answer from a man? We’re planning a trip to Guernsey (an island) dead early tomorrow morning, so I need to know what time we have to leave so I can set my alarm.
Me: What time do we have to leave home?
Piers: No earlier than an hour before the time we have to be there – which is an hour before we sail (6 am).
Took me 11 minutes of questioning, during which time I got more riddles, before I received the answer: 4 am.
Piers “invented” a really delicious Asian snack combo: Prawn crackers with hoisin sauce! So proud of him!
I also found this awesome lemongrass-flavoured prawn crackers at Tesco. From Netherlands, but makers were Indoneisan settlers. Tastes so great when you dip into hoisin sauce (sparingly)!
Yeah I know my photos are missing from my blog header. Looks very funny, doesn’t it?
Nanny Wen (aka Buggy Wen aka Davienne) says it reminds her of Harry Potter’s moving picture people.
Guess my photos are taking a break. They’ve gone into hiding because it’s been raining a lot in England and the weather forecast says it’s going to hail tomorrow.
IN THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER!
Crazy or not.
I thought I’d be in discomfort for a year because I was finding it impossible to get used to Invisalign in my mouth. But just 11 days into it, I hardly feel it anymore.
Was playing on my iPad before bed last night when I suddenly couldn’t feel plastic in my mouth and for one horrifying moment, thought that I had forgotten to put my aligners back on after dinner, which was ages ago.
Turned out it’s just my mouth has started to adapt.
Quote of the day
Me: I want a pet duckling!
Piers: LOL why!!!
Me: Cos they’re so cute.
Piers: All baby things are cute! Except babies.
A transport provider in the UK just sent me an e-mail asking me to take part in an online survey to help improve services.
So I go there and answer two questions (age and last time I used the service) and they say:
“Thank you for your time. Unfortunately, you do not qualify for the survey as this time around we are looking to survey our more senior customers (over 60) only.”
WTF fail.
Was googling the difference between biscuits and cookies and got linked to a Yahoo! Answers page. This guy’s answer made me LOL.
“The difference between the biscuit and the cookie is the Atlantic.
Plus, American biscuit more like a savory scone
Plus English biscuit is an American cookie.
Plus English or American cookie is in your computer to do stuff that no one really understands.”
Being too ambitious (or greedy). Two heaped bowls of ricotta and spinach tortelloni in bolognese sauce, with six sausages and three baby zucchinis thrown into the mix. A roll of garlic bread and a bottle of wine. Delicious!
Yay I got white tulips! My favouritest flowers. :)
England has the most beautiful flowers. Tulips and roses in white with pale pink. Gerberas in strawberry milk pink. Makes me happy!
Just read in detail about foot binding in ancient China. I always thought they just wrapped up the feet during infancy to stop them from growing.
But, no! They wait till the girl is 4-7 years old, then break her toes and arch bones so that the toes can curl under the sole. Without anaesthesia.
After wrapping the monstrous creation tightly, the girl is then forced to walk on her broken feet so her weight can help crush them into shape. The feet are crushed and rebound daily for like two years! WTF is wrong with people?!

Hehe, this kind of advertising dangerous leh.

Haha, you’re famous by now. Yeah!
Sis, the reason your sistas support you so much is so that when you get endorsements, we get lifetime supply of whatever you’re endorsing. =P

Man I hate analysis. =p
Nope, not a lot of folks looks like you. Fortunately.
Still haven’t catch the Kao commercial yet.
Hi Serena (or Qiaoyun)!
Just to let you know that you’ll be making your next feature film appearance on 12 April 2006 when Singapore Dreaming (formerly titled ‘The 5Cs’) opens at a gala charity screening as part of the Singapore International Film Festival.
We’re still in the midst of post-production – but have to tell you your performance was great and you look wonderful on film. Please contact me so I can give you more details about the premiere!
Cheers,
Colin

Hey, Colin! Thanks for “appearing” on my blog. ;) I have emailed you and am very much looking forward to the film’s release. Thank you!
Shaun: I just saw the commercial. Er… I think I look weird. But yeah, it’s a cute family, I must agree.
Ah Toh: Hurhh.

Well, at least people THINK you’re in ads (although the wrong ones XD) and you actually are in a few. People like me will never appear on TV unless i do some heinous crime or set myself on fire. Even so, maybe not.
BYE!
p.s. Congrats on being on TV
,b>usws: Hey, thanks for visiting my blog! Well, I’m sure if you wanted to appear on TV and did something about it (which didn’t involve anything heinous or criminal), I’m sure you could!
I just checked out your blog. I think you’re pretty cool! ;)
Now that you are somebody that you are not, you should go somewhere that you didn’t go and be somewhere that you have never been :)
