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?!

I better think twice before I send a request to add me in your facebook account. Haha..
I wonder does putting your profile as private helps. I’m a noob when it comes to social media.
…and then there are those serial befrienders on facebook that indiscriminately call any Tom, Dick and Harry, Jill, Jane and Jennifer as their friends. Gonna have to do some housekeeping soon, I guess.
guys setting up fake female profiles for fun? i don’t know, very much a waste of time.
I’m just confused what these guys gonna do to these so-called babe “friends”. You actually don’t even know if they are the ones on the profile picture… for all we know those are just guys/fat chicks pretending to be hot chicks.
On the otherhand… We want GGF! We want GGF!
LOL, are they even “real”? To me, Facebook is rather personal as it contains quite a lot of personal details and pictures…gotta be careful whom we authorize!
I don’t really understand why people open so many accounts of sites that all seem the same; facebook, myspace, friendster, etc. Like I know this one girl who opened an account on Multiply and she has only 1 friend there. ?!!
Wait. Who’s site am I at now? Okay. I think I’m in trouble. :|
If you ask me, facebook is just a toy site that really serve no real purpose.
Which is why, I don’t put my real name nor any personal data.
Facebook peeps probably harvest these data and sell to third party.
Spam-ahoy!
well, maybe the babes are collecting suitors also.
I don’t know why, but I’m getting this strange urge to start collecting Japanese AV Stars…
motd: I dunno if putting profile as private will help. These babe collectors are collecting profile pictures, not profiles. So I guess what would help might be to change my profile picture. :P
Shu Yen: Well, serial befrienders aren’t that bad. They just want to look popular, I guess.
Tim: Hmm, so I guess that doesn’t happen. But then you never know lah. Some guys are weird and have too much time on their hands. :P
modchip: Haha… I also want to know what babe collectors do with their collections!
Steffi: Facebook is as personal as you want it to be! Actually, in this millenium, I think nothing is personal anymore.
Al Sayf: *strangle* :P
JayWalk: I think Facebook has been quite useful to me so far. I got found by many long-lost friends, which is always nice! :P
shin: Hmm… that’s possible. Haha.
Jesta: I guess Japanese AV stars won’t mind people collecting them. Haha.
I know put Goonfather picture as your profile picture. Maybe he’ll scare all of them away.
I am also wondering that surely there are also girls who go around collecting guys on friendster and facebook?
motd: Yeah, that will also scare away potential employers lor. /bish :P
JayWalk: Apparently there are… I just haven’t met them! Why don’t you put up a profile pic of yourself half naked and glistening with sweat at the gym, or something like that, and see if you start getting tons of requests from girls? :P
Ha ha! Yeah they are irritating, i don’t understand why men are like that, which is bad since i’m a boy, XD but anyways, look on the bright side! Guys think you are pretty that’s why they add you! XD cheer up ok?
