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?!

Tatz my line! Hey CUTE CUTE!
So expected loh… Adventurous :P
Hehehe. You’re very cute also. Wanna be adventurous together? Next week class, on boh? :P
Can I join in too? :P
Where u got the shoes from?!!!!!
that’s good advice from your teacher…so that’s why i keep getting those dodgy character type roles…yeah right!
at least you, as a girl, can braid up your “limp and floppy” fringe with beads, clips and accessories….not an option for yours truly’s “limp and floppy” fringe ya?
Maybe in the privacy of home i could…not…despite the availability of an array of my daughter’s hairclips and colourful rubberbands, a simple plactic hairband (mine btw) is the furthest i’d go.
Oh btw, were you born in 1977? And wat does it say on your shirt…can’t see cos kena blocked by your hands…horizontal stripes work well on you…..
Kawaii!!!!!!
Everyday got new stuff to read abt you. very the shuang!!!!!!
keep it up girl! ^_^
Wind: Sure! You flying back to Singapore? =)
Lex: I got them from Hong Kong a year ago. Very cheap… like 2 pairs for S$25.. something like that. :P
Fish: I always always have that problem. Haha, hate my hair. My hairclips and braiding don’t work for shoots. As you know, I always get old old roles which are totally not suitable for cutesy hairstyling. So I always end up looking nerdy cos they always pin or gel my hair back. Grrrr!
Nah, I wasn’t born in 77. I don’t think I’ll purposely buy and wear stuff that shows my year of birth, haha. And you know what, I don’t know what it says on my shirt… I always never go read it. Just 2 stupid logo/badge things that probably have tons of grammatical errors. lol.
Wang Wang: Thanks, dear! I’ll continue writing as long as people are reading!
you dress like those taiwanese kawaii models.. heh.. it’s a compliment. =)
Heh, thanks! *blush*
SIBEH AH LIAN MAN. WTF. HOW FUG

[...] years ago, I started a fashion diary to chronicle my more adventurous fashion moments, also as an excuse to start dressing more boldly. [...]
