Ad bus

This is the third time i was on board an ad-designed bus.
Look at the strange interior designs.
1. The number of available seats is pathetic. I hope they don’t use this bus during peak period.
2. The seats are arranged in a weird way and this restricts the number of standing areas too.
3. People sitting near the […]

Winter Sonata

This drama was produced in 2002 and yet it took me 5 years to get acquaintance with it. It’s all because of The Legend that is currently showing on Channel U during the weekends.
I will not be attracted to this drama if not for the male lead actor- Bae Yong Jun. He is not that […]

I hate marketing calls

For the past few days, i had been haunted by numerous irritating marketing calls, so much to the extend of me having to filter all calls. This is the wonder of using Sony Ericsson phones. It has a wonderful function called ‘Manage Calls->Accepted List’.
The calls came from reputable banks like Citibank to insurance companies like […]

Great Singapore Sale woes

My sis was complaining to me how pathetic the GSS sales are in Singapore. The items that are new and nice-looking are mostly not on sale, and those items that are average looking or from the existing stocks are all going on sale. Well, that’s very true and it happens every year, so what’s new?
As […]

Hot weather!

The current temperature in the north-east of Singapore is 31.8 degree Celsius. No joke. The highest temperature for today is 34.5. Blah. The sickening weather dampens my exercise mood greatly. I cannot imagine doing exercises in this heat. The natural ’sauna’ should already taken millimeters away from my waist.
I couldn’t sleep the whole night and […]

my afternoon rumblings

This week is another pretty busy period for me. I may seem happy-go-lucky in front of friends and colleagues, but deep inside me, i am feeling all the jitters and stressed up.
Today, it is another Sunday at home, but not for long because the other half of the evening will be spent outside. As to […]

i was once an excuses ‘expert’

I chanced upon this article from the mypaper the day before. It mentioned that bosses in the US don’t buy excuses for lateness of their employees. This make me reflect upon my own doings when i was still a student in the secondary school.

I was a real cheeky student during my school time. I had […]

Learn from probloggers: How to discourage hotlinking

Is hotlinking legal? Hmm…. yes and no. Some image sites actually allows you to hotlink. Especially Flickr and Photobucket.
But do you know that by hotlinking someone else’s images, you are actually stealing their bandwidth! If the image you hotlinked to is copyrighted, you can be easily traced and can be sued badly. Recently, i’ve learnt […]

I love and hate Insurance/Financial Agents

A fresh egg of unhappiness and sadness broke in my heart when i heard that my current insurance agent drops his letter of resignation. I think he was the BEST agent I’ve ever had so far with this company, but unfortunately, good things doesn’t last and i hope he will do well in other pastures.

a strange lady

While hubby was busy vacuuming the floor today, we received a knock on the door. Thinking it was another unwelcome saleslady, I ignored it and continued to watch my favorite Ah Wang show. Hubby went to open the door and was greeted by a lady who claimed to be our neighbor who lives in a […]
