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?!

hmm.. hmm.. not trying to dict or anything.. just curious.. XD
so.. its up to you..
I wanna see Goonfather in gothic-loli! Or shall i say….Goon-loli…?
zield: Thanks for your comments! Well, it’s ok, I don’t expect everyone to like all my outfits. Haha. It’s good to get all kinds of feedback to my “experiments”. ;)
I will wear goth-loli when I have money to buy the outfits. They are damn freaking expensive, you know?
Haha. I have several pairs of over-the-knees socks, but I dunno why they make me look short or just weird. So, I always pull them to below-the-knees. Somehow looks better that way. Well, maybe next time I’ll post a photo for you to judge. ;)
Mother: Goon-loli????? Wahahahahahahahaa. You are too damn funny.
Hi I saw you acting on two Sunday morning show. One act as mother and the other act as teacher. One show following the other.
Gorgeous! Love the close-up headshot, like the outfit (not the big shoes), hate the weird Photoshop stuff in the background. You look lovely, as always, but then you would look great in a flour sack :o)
You look weird in this outfit. The pose was really awkward. I wondered if it’s the figure or the pose weird. The socks and shoes is weird too. Doesn’t really match together. But I like your close up. You look so gorgeous and your skin is superb.
I just have to ask, now that I think of it: How DO you come up with those names? “Truth Candy”??? :oP
JokeDiary: Wow, you’re sharp! I went to check the TV Guide and found out they’re running a repeat of that kids’ drama I acted in a couple years back. Funny they should start airing it at the same time my current show is on. But why in the world were you watching Eco Warriors? :P
Jesta: Thanks! Aww, pity you don’t like the shoes. I love them. I’m going to BUY MORE… in MORE COLOURS! Hahaha. :P I did the weird photoshop stuff because the trees in the background look too ugly. Haha.
I don’t really have a system for naming my outfit. Just whatever comes to mind when I look at the outfit. :P Most of the time, it’s quite silly. Like, “truth” because it’s a black and white outfit, no grey areas, and it’s bold, so it’s kinda like a Truth or Dare thing. “Candy” because there are some frills and lace and ribbons in the outfit to sweeten up the starkness of truth?
You just had to ask. :P
Donny: Haha, I guess I look weird in the outfit because it makes me look shapeless? I don’t think the pose is all that awkward, so it must be the outfit. Well, thanks for your comments, anyway. Great to know what people think! :)
Please stop, you’re blinding me…
with your beauty. :P
Hey girl, looking gorgeous as always! Love the hair.
Btw the boots are still on sale in HK. Same price as last time :P
For some reason many of the girls I know adopt a similar system for their clothes. If I like it then it is never seen again, if I hate it then they buy more. I simply cannot imagine why…
Yep I agree with Elyxia, the closeup photo really rocks, its those eyes again… Zzzzz… electrifying. :-)
I want your shoes…>.
the leggings and socks/shoes combi look really weird and too act cute! what is your age again hahahah
modchip: Ah… please stop! You’re making me blush… with your flattery! :P
Elyxia: Oh yeah, I quite like the hair. Hehe! Thanks for recommending that salon! I NEED TO GO VISIT YOU NOWWWWWWWW! :P
Jesta: Might you, just for a bit, perhaps, consider the fact that maybe, just maybe, your taste in fashion is, to put it very mildly, questionable? =P
Starstruck: Thanks! :) To be honest, I can’t imagine why people keep harping on my eyes. I used to hate them and I still am kinda displeased with them right now. :P
Steffi: Yay! Someone likes me shoes. Thanks, girl! *looks at Jesta*
handel: Oh, I’m sorry. I’m 265. Is that too old to wear cute clothes? They never told me that from the planet I came from.
cute! i like the tunic/dress!
Watch with my 3 yrs old son.
hmmmm look kinda cute overall… ahhaha i like =X
nadnut: Thanks, babe! :)
JokeDiary: Oh, that’s nice! I hope your son enjoys the shows. :) I think 2-3 year olds are the cutest! I want to pinch all their cheeks! :)
Smallapple: Good to hear that, thanks! :) I feel better knowing at least a few people like the outfit. Heh! :)
Wah so bad. After that my son will tell me “Daddy pain”, I will tell him “Don’t worry son, Daddy will use my 32 years strength on Aunty QY Cheeks back for you ok.”. lol
OMG… you’re turning into a cheek-pinching aunty!
Hmm…I never liked leggings and I refuse to wear them.
That’s why I only wear black stockings.
But I find it looks quite good overall. :)
JokeDiary: Haha. Joking lah. I never pinch children’s cheeks. In fact I don’t even dare to touch children or handle babies. Everyone some parent ask me if I want to carry their baby, I’m like, no thanks! They’re too fragile… I’m scared I would break them with my klutzy hands, lol.
Mince Pye: You mean like the one you face every day? Oh wait, you don’t anymore, sorry! But take heart, time flies! :P
Minou: Heh, I also never liked leggings. But I bought this pair because I couldn’t resist ribbons on the sides! Well, I’ve only worn it twice since buying it, uh, ages ago. :P
Thankfully, my cheeks have yet to be pinched, and don’t you be getting any funny ideas, you table-throwing, parasol-wielding, cheek-pinching aunty, you!
Mince Pye: That’s what YOU claim. Heheh.
“Questionable”? I don’t think so… It must be the women concerned, not ME!
Jesta: Right. Someone’s as deluded as ever, I see. :)
ya of course I know you are joking. But they can sometime be a devil lol
JokeDiary: All kids are devils at all ages. But, for me, 2-3 year olds are cute enough to overlook their devilishness. Hehe.
0.o jokediary knew qy for 32 years?
Smallapple: Um, I don’t think he meant that. I think he meant that HE is 32 years old. :P
Love the MJ!
hahas… i tot u when become 32yo de sia.. chey!
Akimme: Sorry, but what’s MJ?
Smallapple: ;)
My daughter would love this. I won’t show it to her or she will make me go out a buy it :)
