Hello short hair.
- Throat feeling scratchy all day. Hope I'm not falling sick, but cute little toddlers have been coughing in my face all week. 2 weeks ago
- Found this chicken feather stuck under an egg. Didn't see it when I unpacked it into the fridge before. O_o http://t.co/y8KNKcNG 2 weeks ago
- Dropped a corn flake on kitchen floor, can't find it (floor is brown). Wonder if Piers will be upset if he finds it with his foot later. 3 weeks ago
- Today in the nursery a little girl fell asleep on her plate in the middle of having a snack. So cute! 3 weeks ago
- More updates...

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?!
OMG!! You went back to your old old hairstyle!! Almost like Guan Zhi Lin!!
*shocked*
OMG!!!
I wanna cut short hair too!!!
But I have to keep my hair long for at least 1 more year… T__T
Gosh.
Been following you for the past few weeks, and you write pretty well, and your pictures have been pretty nice.
Wow, but this really came as a shock.
What a huge difference a hair cut makes.
Nice cut – fresh start… Fortes fortuna adiuvat. You look happy with your new cut and that is great! If you have the time, do catch Le Tigre Et La Neige screening at Cathay. I caught it and it was a good one. Left me thinking about some things.
Fwah! Hee, makes you look younger than you already are. =P
Hey Monster,
Reeling from a little shock and well, actually love your new do!
I kinda like it.
wow !
WAH! SO SHORT!
Wouldnt you miss your long hair?
If its me i’ll definitely miss it.
heh. But i love the way it is on u! =D
Fresh look!!! =)
By the way, it suddenly struck me……this is a transition hairstyle before you get a Goonfather cut eh?
*shock*
You look too cute!! Now you look younger than ME.
Aye head chu.
Mother: This isn’t quite the same as the previous short hair I had, but I guess the length is about there. Strangely, the goonfather also said my new hair reminds him of Guan Zhilin. Got meh?? I don’t see any similarity at all. O_o
Starmist: You didn’t know I was planning to cut my hair? :P (Actually have been planning for more than a year already. lol.
Minou: Why? I think you look cute in short hair!
yh: Thanks for reading my blog! It’s interesting to hear that people who just know me very recently can get shocked by my new hairstyle too. lol.
Dennis: Yay! I still remember enough from Latin class to recognise your phrase! Hehe. :) Thanks for all the encouragement!
Crashwire: Haha. Thanks!
Monster: Glad you like it! Hmm… when you see me next month, it’ll probably look different because my hair was styled by my stylist in the picture. When I style myself, it’s just looks blah. =P
Alvinaloy: Kinda only? Why kinda??? =P
no2slack: Wow what?
Lex: Yeah, I guess there are flitting moments when I miss my long hair. But there were also times I hated my long hair when I had it. I think people always are not contented with what they have when they have it, lol.
Shell: Haha. I don’t think I look cuter than you, though. ;)
qy> i’m juz wowing at wot u did to ur hair. totally different u now.
Finally! Its about time! :P
Coz having long hair = more variations…
After my customary I’m going to snip it all off!
^_^

i remember when qy snipped it off she commented, “i feel like minou when she cut her hair and rebonded it”
wahaha but i lub ur hair qy~~
shit…they beat me to the line. anyway, OMG!
no2slack: hmm is it? i still feel pretty much the same, though. =P
Ruok: Tsk tsk. Why say until like you hate my long hair lidat? Haha.
Minou: Oh yeah, that I agree. I suppose long hair for customary nicer also. ;)
dav: My actual words were: “My new hair reminds me of Minou when she cut her hair short with the rebonded look.” =D But thanks for lubbing my hair! Will you give me Tigger? =P
darkelfin: Beat what lah. You hardly visit my blog anyway. lol.

*horror* Why you evil short hair twin of Qiao Yun want to steal my tigger?

Aftiel: Short meh? I think not short enough. Thinking of going back to cut off another inch or two. :P
dav: TIGGER IS MINE! mineminemine! =D
no2slack: yah, seems like this hairstyle is good, no one got anything to make fun of it. *glare around*

Wang Wang: Wah… so chio meh? I was actually kinda disappointed with my haircut cos it was totally not what I requested for. :P But thanks anyway. Your hair don’t need to cut lah. I love your hairstyle (the last time I saw it, anyway, dunno if you change already, haha).
