Loud bang

Me and Al were startled by a loud bang from the kitchen.

Guess what? Part of the ceiling fell onto the stove. Luckily no one was cooking else the person will be so knock out.

Sunday lunch

Maggie mee is what I had for lunch. I know it’s not good for me but I was doing mask and definitely not going out in it. Although the noodle was a bit dry but I was pretty impressed by the presentation. Thanks to Al. Haha!

Bookstores

I went to Borders and was quite bothered cos I can’t find a book after 20 minutes of searching. I finally concluded that Borders doesn’t carry it.

In order not to waste my trip down, I proceeded to Kinokuniya. And within just 5 minutes, I found the book!! Simply love how they organised their books.

I would strongly recommend a Kino over Borders.

Red nails

In preparation of Chinese New Year , I visited Alveda today for a full mani and pedicure. Take a look at my first RED on nails. Look vampish? :p

New hobby

Recently, there is this Hong Kong drama serial about a family whose father loves to read.  He would always share his love of reading with his family and friends and the story behind each book he read.  This show brought back memories of my secondary school time when we were encouraged to read as many books as we can in a month.  Me and my best friend always came in either first or second cos we read really fast.

Recently, I felt that my life has come to a standstill so I really need a new hobby to keep it going.  Under the influence of the show, I decide to pick up READING again.  For a start, my dear friend, Desiree has recommended me a book titled  ”Chronicling Nadal/Federer rivalry up to Wimbledon finals 2008“.  I hope that I can get hold of this book to kick start my rekindled hobby and also for my collection of books!  My newly set goal is to finish at least one book for each month starting from February.  Wish me luck!

Bike stolen rate

Al mentioned to me before that Singapore has one of the highest bike stolen rate.  I did not really believe him then but now that I am more exposed to bike related news (read this), I soon realised that what he told me is quite true.   Its absurd, how Singapore,  well know for its safety and cleanliness can have such high bike stolen crimes.  I wonder how Singaporean or people living in Singapore would want to do that, for the money they can fetch from the stolen parts from the bike?? or they just get a kick out of stealing bike??

We should learn from the Japanese.  The Japanese, especially those living in Tokyo can just leave their bikes without even locking them and they can still come back and found them still there.  I think its the culture and how they were being educated.  Maybe the Singapore police force should have a dedicated group of officers to start thinking of how to go about reducing the bike stolen rate.  So I can bring my little cute bike out without worrying that it will get stolen if I take my eyes off it.

Good luck to all cyclists in Singapore.

Color II

This is my actual hair color.. Hmmm, what do ya think of it?

Goals

January is coming to an end soon. Remember the goals that I made? One of them was to exercise at least twice a week. I am happy to say that I managed to accomplish that for the month of January!!

February, here I come

The color

My hair is due for a trim and color (traces of white hair showing). This time, Joanne suggested me to do a highlight instead of the usual coloring. But before that, my hair needs to be bleached. I was shocked when I saw the end result. If I go to work like this, think my bosses will jump. Haha..

Give away

I have this bad habit of buying things especially clothes and giving them away when I realized that they are too tight for my liking.

And who will be the one who will benefit?? It would be my dear friend, Ee Shih cos she is one of the few who is thinner than me. Look at how this top fits her to a T.
