Quote from Toto-chanNext day, when she woke up, she went straight down to the kitchen where Mother was, without even brushing her hair, and announced, “I don’t want to be a spy anymore, or a street musician, or a ticket seller. I’m going to be a ballerina and dance in Swan Lake!”“Oh,” said Mother. She ...
—When i was over at very fond verily christian friend’s place for dinner, i shared the kid’s table with her kids, sitting on the floor while there are empty chairs around. Well.. LB is like that. He likes to use kids’ stuff.Anyway, her older son was eating a slice of pizza, and kids being kids, ...
Did i mention that i went to the gym a couple days ago? No i didn’t. It’s a rhetorical question, because i know i didn’t mention it.Anyway, now my hands can’t straighten at the elbows. Well.. i could straighten my hands at the elbows, but it’s one hell of a painful thing to do these ...
“老大! 电话!”That’s the ringtone for text on my handphone. At 3am, my phone rang “老大! 电话!” (big boss, handphone) (usually gangster connotation for boss). So i gra …
Omg, my donated monitor went kapoot today. At the rate i’m replacing components, i suspect i might be able to get a whole new computer. Let’s see the things i’ve added/replaced:- 2 x RAM- Sound card- Speakers- Wireless adapter- DvD drive (though this is free as i cannibalized from my brother’s old stuff)- LCD display ...
My phone just rang a couple hours ago. The number was captured on the caller ID, but since it wasn’t in my handphone address book, i ignored it. I figure that since i’m not expecting any calls, it’s likely to be some wrong number. I doubt employment opportunities would call me at night, unless i’m ...
I think the title about says it all. You do not need daily bowel movements to be healthy. There is nothing much more to say about it. If find the idea of needing to have three bowel movements daily (to coincide with each meal of the day they say) to be utter rubbish.What about someone ...
Went on a cycling trip yesterday covering only the usual familiar routes as i hadn’t been cycling for quite awhile. Somewhere along the Park Connector, somewhere near Kallang MRT, there was this canal bridge which i had to push the bike across.In the middle of the bridge, i decided to stop and rest for awhile, ...
What’s the wonderful thing about buying stuff online? Some like to think that it is about the convenience afforded by online shopping with your credit card, performing cashless transactions in the comforts of your home, sitting on your cushy chair. Or even in the confines of the office. Think about it, shopping during your working ...
I’m now reading The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga. It says on the book “Meet Balram Halwai, the ‘White Tiger’: Servant, Philosopher, Entrepreneur, Murderer…”. I’m halfway through the book, it’s quite a nice piece of read.Excerpt from the book:“A handful of men in this country have trained the remaining 99.9 per cent – …

Ok.. just watched The Wedding Planner. Absolutely abhor it. Utterly distasteful. Massimo was tossed aside like an extra spare tire. Dumped like a bag of dirt. Flushed away like some sludge. And the movie had the audacity to end it on a happy-ending note. What the hell!! What about Massimo!?Angry.Rawwrrr!! ANGRY *with echoes* ...
Mmm, the upstairs or downstairs neighbour is cooking ginger vinegar. The scent wafting in is flavorfully distinctive. There’s no dish that i know of that has such a unique smell. I wanna eat some of what they’re cooking!Neighbours cooking always remind me of my favourite post apocalyptic fantasy. We would be living in little huts ...
Omg, i had a really weird dream. I dreamed that i was one of the Heroes and had special powers too. Ok, maybe i’m watching too much of that show or something. Anyway, i was tasked to protect this guy who was targetted for assassination. I think it was Peter.We met at this place that ...
Ah.. the sun eclipse is occurring right now in various parts of the world as i blog. Fascinating isn’t it? I feel. i feel the hunger. I.. i need powers. Don’t ever call me lbandit again. I’m now.. Casio !! Coz Rolex sounds a little too posh. Everybody loves a good Casio. Of course, i’m ...
When the baby is around and when my brother talks to his nephew, i would always find an opportunity to tell him to speak in Cantonese to the baby. Of course, at the age the baby is, Cantonese or Mandarin really makes no difference. But i do believe it sets the course on how the ...
The picture looks funny. I believe it’s because the larger background picture is not framed up. There was some kind of unwritten rule to eat five plates at one go. In one picture, the soba didn’t get served up as quickly as we were picking the plates of sushi off the revolving belt. It ended ...
I remember. I remember back in polytechnic days, there was a student who was almost always absent, and almost never hands in assignments if he didn’t have to. If i didn’t know better, i would’ve thought he was trying to score a perfect 50/100. Which should be as difficult as scoring full marks, i assure ...
There’ve been a couple visits by flying ants for the past couple days. I wonder if flying ants are related to ants or if they’re a species of their own. Do flying ants have a colony? If you think about it, a flying ant without the wings is actually quite a huge ant.Anyway, i began ...
