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?!
Try Hairbands?
Well, how about you go for a lil cut & curl session with your hair? Otherwise, have a look at Yui (that cute Jap singer-actress).. She’s got a similar hair style to yours and it looks really nice..
Here’s a link : http://www.crunchyroll.com/group/CRSeries_-_YUI/photos/14391901
Hope it helps! :)
Try sea salt spray. I don’t really know how it works. My stylist just said that it’ll prevent hair flatness. Or try half a can of hair spray.
@Kim : Half a can of hair spray?? You’re kidding right?? O.o”
hey… yui and you have quite similar looks and style.. hmmm… :)
No hair problems in AoC!!!
Well…not unless you screw up your char creation…lol
You KNOW you want AoC!!!
Goonfather does too…
trimming doesnt help..?
I agree with Goonfather, nice ma! Better to have more hair than little. I’m not even thirty and I’m worried about getting bald spots here and there. And because I have little hair, I really looked like Sadako when my hair was long. Serious. I’ve frightened my family members before. Haih.
Tried layering before?
Just go to your hair stylist and tell him:
“Armani, 剪短. Sideburn 留长.”
Works for me everytime….I’ve got no hair problems.
wahahaha.. long time no see..
and your hair look stupid.. lolololol..
cut your hair lah.. :D
oh wait.. dont cut your hair yet..
now you can have that legendary magnificent full twintail hair style..
ok.. now just cut/set your bangs.. :)
something like emo-hairstyle.. (the one that look like a porcupine)
hmm.. on side note.. i think a layered haircut would do it.. (on your whole hair..)
btw.. arent you interested on coloring your hair.. ?? say.. layered red with little white/silver black and blonde.. ??
or maybe a pony tail.. on upper tightening.. (kunoichi-style)
but still.. you should do/cut/set your bangs.. :))
And… cue the comments that you should stop being so totally female about your hair. This cannot, that cannot… *sigh* You look good either way, but DO NOT HAVE IT CUT SHORT!
try layering or just cut the thickness?
its a hot weather dry spell recently.
I concur with Goonfather – Nice wat…
Whut!?! But the sadako look ain’t that bad… :D
U call this Sadako? Taiwanese singer Fan Weiqi did an impression of the dead one once and THAT was scary!!!! Guess it didn’t help that she’s skinny and fair too. Don’t be bunk mates with Fan Fan. You’ll get a heart attack if she wakes up in the middle of the night to pee. LOL!!!
Cos your fringe hairline grows downwards… nothing to be done about it..
I seem to remember you asked us readers to pick your hair style. No good ideas?
why dont you try n get your hair thining out and get sum layers short choppy layers so that you will beable 2 clip ypur hair up how ever you want to as there will not be as much hair 2 clip up if you get short layers!
why don’t you try a side ponytail ur fringe down it works for me :)
why don’t you try a side ponytail with ur fringe down simple and stylish it works for me :)
l like your hair
