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?!

WTF???
I know I’m a game addict… but this…. WTF???
I never been this crazy about games… Sleep is more important to me…
hahahahahaz….
*almost falls of chair*
LOL@tGF! :D
HAHAHAHAHA!
I miss playing Travian!
Monster,
This is just so hilarious! Well, my Greyee once yelled at me in the middle of the night while we were sleeping. He was yelling, “I’m asking you a question, can you answer me?” I ignored it thinking he was sleep talking or whatever and then he got madder and louder and finally, I yelled back, “what???” Then, he woke up and burst into giggles and pretended nothing happen….obviously, someone was sleep talking
Brilliant! The GF has got his priorities right. If we are not there to protect those resources early in the morning then who will do it? It’s something that women just don’t seem to understand…
she has a 3G iphone!
hahaha, i am also dreaming of travian as i was also being attacked couple of times friday night. They stopped when they can no longer get any of my resources.
WTF is this Travian thingy?
I don’t think I’d ever get hooked on to such a stupid game. Browser flash games/Indie online games/Korean online games/Chinese online games are a waste of time. They harm the video game industry.
Thanks for all your comments, guys! Individual replies will resume when I’m not so busy. For now, general replies! :)
Travian is quite a cool web-based game, which is sort of like a real-time strategy game of building and conquering cities.
I was quite addicted to it at one stage of my life. When I was holidaying in KL, I had to make a trip to an Internet cafe at least twice a day to manage my cities and make sure my resources and troops are being used efficiently and being protected against real-life player invaders. :P
lol, stupid things that we do in life.
