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?!

Master Chief haha!
But I don’t play Halo ):
hehehe … the master chief .. looks FIERCE hehehe :)
but jiejie looks pretty
Wow, I think you look great in every outfit you put on.
Wow, the Halo Master Chief suit actually looks good!
yh: Neither do I, cos I’m really lousy at this kinda games. lol. But I think it’s a great game, nevertheless.
misha: Thank you, dearie! ;)
JokeDiary: Heh, thanks! *blush*
Kevin: Yup, you saw the pic with mask on, in my earlier blog about this event? The full outfit is really good!
Bow down to the master! Master Chief is so cool, even in real life.. 0_o
Master Chief reminds me of Robot Cop, or Terminator. If 10,000 people wear like him and march the street on Orchard Rd. I bet everyone will think Machine is taking over the country. LOL.
erh.. sounds a lot like Master Chef if u ask me (can cook up a storm episode), but QY… to make yourself a little more intimidatingas well, maybe your face could do with some camouflage paint on lah, bez I think u steal the limelight from the Microsoft lah :)
Eh.. if master chief halfway need to go toilet pang sai, then how ah?
BTW, following the comment on your previous entry, I think the image of a master chief with very very short or no hair is more cool.
just checked your “qy appearing” page… wahh u really DO look like a teacher in the 2nd show! :)
yay. 13 sept coming soon!! i shall park myself in front of the tv at that hour, and watch u… haha.. first time watching u on tv :)
ok no comments W.R.T. this entry cos i dont game hahaha!
modchip: Haha. Yeah, the actor playing Master Chief is pretty cool, actually. He’s friendly and funny.
JokeDiary: Wow… that would be really cool, man. But I doubt Singapore will ever allow anything like that to happen. :P
Starstruck: Well, the male marines get face paint. The females don’t. I guess they don’t want us to look TOO intimidating cos we’re supposed to persuade humans to join us and finish the fight! :P
Jaywalk: Erm… everything take off again lor. He actually had to stand in the bus for more than an hour because the armor doesn’t allow him to sit down, and this particular performance was delayed for an hour plus cos of a delayed shipment. Poor thing, hehe.
Daphne: Thanks for supporting my show!! ;)
I doubt anyone want to wear that suit into real battle. At least not in Singapore. Die of heat exhaustion and damn heavy to move around in metal. Die of fatigue wearing those thing around.
Can also ask enemies to give sometimes to load weapons and deployment before engaging in battle.
Well, at least now you wearing in plastic armour.
So are you wearing one of those upfit ?
Yeah, funny is equal to cool. That’s how everyone should be. :D
bigmac: Medieval knights wear plate armour into battle. I think those are heavier! That’s why warriors must be really strong. Enough to bear the weight of their armour plus have strength enough left to fight. lol. Lucikly my costume is made of cloth and very, very airy. Haha.
modchip: Yeah, I agree!
Hehhe! He does look like Robocop in that shot. :)
It was good to see them walking on the road with the cars going by! Definitely a sight to behold.
Well done once again!
Thanks! :)

Ummm….Master chief doesn’t have to worry about the weight of the armor. the armor itself has a system that makes poeple stronger. He can lift a small car by himself no problem. sorry to be realistic but it says so in alllll halo written works.
St33le_reserve: Thanks for that bit of info! It’s interesting to know! :)
The Master Chief looks Western without the helmet HA
