A really interesting tag on the top. Well I'm not sure if I'm supposed to cut it off. But seeing the scissors symbol, I just cut along the dotted lines.
Intricate stitching on the top. Overall, it is kind of see through.
And by the way, I've gotten myself the Esprit membership card.
So if you guys wanna get anything, you can look for me.
Maybe 10% off isn't much. But its still discount anyway!
Really cute design on the button. And ohh... POLKA-DOTS!
If you know me, I'm not really a big fan of belts. But then I realised how different 1 outfit could be when paired with different belts. And adding on the fact that the gold belt was really cute after putting it on. Looks like a ribbon or something!
Headed to Billy Bomber for dinner. I'm starting to get sick of the fries there.
This bottle is really interesting! Ok. Maybe bottles like this are EVERYWHERE. But it's a bottled root beer. Oh, and I took the bottle home. Gonna use it as a vase. Wahaha!
The spinach with cream side proved too much for me cos the taste was kind of overwhelming and I got sick of it after only consuming half of it.
So a day well spent and I'm kind of tired. Gonna go watch my favourite CSI now!
Bye ~
I cooked yesterday, and I'm just done with washing my clothes. So what is gonna happen tomorrow?

Cut them into pieces.
And then comes the lead character.
The Eggs ~
Crack crack!
Ok. I broke one yoke. My skill isn't that up to standard yet.
After adding some pepper & salt, beat it up.
You can do it karate style if you like.
And then comes the cooking part.
And tada!
My masterpiece.

Oh well, by request of little brother.
Surprise surprise!
He came over yesterday and stayed for the night.
Hmm. Didn't even let us know about it.
What a little devil.
Dinner was great, as usual. And some issues were being talked about. I really love the word "communicate" more and more.
It really is VERY important to communicate with your parents.
And by communicating effectively, it's bringing us closer as a family.
And I'm glad.
Told Daddy about how I felt over the whole i'm-feeling-so-alone-dealing-with-this-whole-issue-myself thing and he told me:
"I've got no experience in this so what can I really say? I trust you to do the right thing."
Oh man...
That old man.
The greatest old man in my life.
The one & only old man whom I love so much.
Thank you Daddy. Though you'll never see this.
Well I'm still pretty much feeling the same about the whole thing, but now that I know for sure that he's there for me every step of the way, perhaps it's not gonna be as bad after all.
Well hopefully.
Sent little monkey home together after dinner and it was so much fun!
Dropped in on Mummy for quite awhile and took lots of her snacks back.
Haha!
She said:
"I didn't know that 2 of my children are being tortured!"
Cos we complained that there's always nothing at home for us to eat.
Oh, what devils we are!
Haha.
Well went over to Clementi with Daddy after that to collect his rent.
I popped a really random question which me and hairy monkey have been wanting to ask him for a long time, and he gave us quite a surprising answer!
And then hairy monkey and I started to plan this and that and everything. But then I realised, I might not be there to participate in it at all, should it happen in the near future.
It sounds so wonderful and all.
But hairy monkey is going to NS soon and I might be away too. And that will leave just Daddy himself alone. I don't want him to be all alone. I don't want him to have to go back home and face the four walls, with no one to talk to.
Oh by the way, it's not like hairy monkey is gonna talk to him much if he's home.
What an idiot.
Haha.
Oh I don't know.
Why am I starting to miss my Daddy when he is just beside me now?
I must be mad.
Shouldn't it be that children often drift further away from their parents as they grow old?
But I'm the direct opposite of it.
I'm starting to cling on closer to my parents as I grow old.
AH!
What a baby I am.
Anyway, my Mummy & Daddy are the 2 greatest person in the world!
Hmm...
Maybe I'll include that 2 monkeys too.
HAHA!

Even bought myself a Lancome mascara.
But none of the above is able to make me happy now.
I was on the phone just now with a tech support for 78 minutes!
Like oh-my-goodness-78-minutes!
Damn. And I'm not even sure if I'm being connected to the Singapore number I dialled, or that they transferred me to the one in US! If it's US, then I can really kill myself when the telephone bill comes in. Cos freaking 78 minutes! And it ain very assuring when the tech support I'm talking to has this weird accent. Not very Singaporish I must say.
Anyway, it feels really horrible and helpless when you're trying to solve something which you have absolute zero knowledge in and the only help you can get is from a tech support over the phone.
Couldn't configure the setup for my wireless network and I gotta deal with both my desktop computer and laptop. Troublesome, confusing, and totally helpless.
And the worst thing is that the tech support guy has to be mostly on the wait while I try to do whatever he told me to. It's so moronic.
Feeling so guilty that he had to waste 78 minutes on me with half the time listening to the air.
Argh.
Well whatever it is, it's over. My network is finally set up. And thank goodness that Leo the tech support is really helpful, polite and patient. Gosh!
And to make things worst, my stupid ass of a brother started complaining when he saw the mess I'm in and the fact that I'm "hogging" his precious lousy desktop computer. Like I have a choice.
And the worst thing he said was:
"And there you were talking to that guy."
EXPLOSION!
I was talking to the tech support you no brainer!
I have no one to talk to now cos I'm sure my beloved is feeling too upset over the absence of her love, so I'm not gonna disturb her.
And precious Adrian lost his voice and is feeling unwell.
(hey, get well soon alrighty! if you need loads of sugar to get well, you know who to go to. haha!)
Now I wanna cry...
No one to console me.
Anyway, thank you so much for spending your whole day helping me out. Being an ass again cos I was too frustrated.
And thanks to Leo the tech support, whoever you are.

Dinner was great. Lots of laughter, lots of secrets. Haha.
Headed to Kbox at Jurong East after that and had such a fantabulous (combination of fantastic & fabulous. i think i should get it copyrighted. haha.) time. A pity CS had to leave early to get his work done.
I'm so gonna miss James' singing! He's totally a singer! Especially when it comes to Wong Lee Hom and David Tao's songs!
CS's such a poor thing. All 4 of his best buds went into NS except for him. No more basketball sessions and weekly meeting up.
And I guess my beloved is gonna be sad too. No more regular meet ups with James. She's already fretting over how his life will be in NS. Keep wondering if it's gonna be tough for him and such. Aww... So sweet!
Oh well my dears, NS is just a phrase. It'll be over. And at least we still have each other!
And pretty please the 2 of ya. Shake hands and make up already!
Especially CS. Be a man and do the right thing. Apologise.
Wow. I'm missing them all already.

Flight was at 8.10am and there we were at the airport at 6am!
Yes yes yes. I know we have to get there 2 hours before boarding. But isn't it way too early?
I was really bored from all the waiting and so . . .
And then when we finally boarded the plane . . .
Being the ultra kuku me, I had no idea where to pluck the earphone in and I was too shy to ask for help. It was only till the last 30 minutes of the flight that I figured it out and so ended up, I only managed to watch 10 minutes of Ultraviolet. Dumb.
Approaching Taiwan . . .
The flight took 4 hours and 25 minutes. And when the plane landed, I got real high! Loved that rushy feeling of landing!
Anyway, we joined a 6 days tour with Chan Brothers before heading to Kao-Hsiung on our own.
Boarding the bus . . .
And then off we go to our 1st destination!
All about |

Jack (or is it Jane?) of all trades,
(almost!)
but Master of none.
(trying to!)
This is my paradise, where I indulge my senses grandiloquently.
A collective effort to keep family & friends updated, and for random strangers to pop by.
I wanted to put a HUGE picture of myself in this space, but being the technologically challenged person that I am, I can't figure out the mojo of it.
So I guess I'll just have to make do with scattering loads of random self-shots all over the blog!
