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?!

Don’t look very nerdy lah :p
Have a good rest.

Fish: Haha, yeah, have talked to Charles mum before. But she’s ok lah. Didn’t really get a chance to talk too much also cos I don’t have much free time in this shoot. You mean you got called back for SNAP? Anyway, good luck for LTD and XXX3!! ;)
Monster: Haha, thanks! It’s just a stereotype, I think. I have a feeling that most real teachers don’t look like the typical stereotyped teacher they have in MediaCorp dramas, lol. Am I right?
arachno: Hehe. Thanks. Dunno why lah, I just feel nerdy in it. :P
starmist: Thank you babe. ;) But my face looks so round in TV close ups! lol.

Face look round is nice. What?! You wanna look like a horse?
I agree with Stan, that first picture is a winner in my book. I love how your smile translated into the camera. So peaceful and serene, I can’t get the image of my mind. :D
That shot in the last pic, you look so cute. :D
How come kids can dye hair so young?? Never die before! *whipping sound*
steffi .. kids also won;t let go??
Stan: Thanks! When I have short, cropped hair, people say I look like Gigi Leung. When I have long, straight hair, people say I look like Kelly Chen. I wonder who I look like with my shoulder length hair now. :P
SC: I will. Thanks for your concern! ;)
Steffi: Haha… you want… your own?
The Goonfather: As a matter of fact, YES I DO!!! Haha. I like long slim face. Like Liv Tyler. Tell me she’s not gorgeous!!
modchip: Thank you. ;) Actually, I prefer my no-teeth smiley look. I find it really strange when people like pictures of me which I think are ugly! :P
Mother: Aiyah… this one say before already wat. The boy is a Eurasian lah. Naturally brown hair! lol.
Thank you. ;) Actually, I prefer my no-teeth smiley look. I find it really strange when people like pictures of me which I think are ugly! :P
Hmmmm… maybe different people, different tastes? But really, I was not joking when I posted that. :D
I know you meant what you said! I just feel it’s funny how different people have different tastes! It makes it very hard for me to choose photographs to send to casting places cos I never know what the person in charge likes. Hehe. :P
You got that right. :D
Great pictures
