Household Chores

This morning, our common toilet’s heater starts leaking water when hubby tried to take a bath. He started to panic and wanted to call his dad to come down and repair. Looks like he is one of those who just dun feel comfortable handling appliances on his own. Thought all guys are supposedly good at […]

Singapore Mahjong

It seemed pretty hard to learn how to play Mahjong with friends, especially if they are already experts in the game. I doubt they have the patience to teach and also wait for me to decide my next move on an actual game. What makes things worst is, 3 other players are needed to make […]

Gokusen 3

“Yankumi” is back! A passionate teacher who did not give up even after being allocated a class full of terrible delinquents. Her Yakuza upbringing gives her the strength and fighting skills just adequate to control the students in the class.
It was motivating to watch this show as it relates to my passion. But if i […]

School Life is fun!

FYP evaluations are finally over!
Sometime i find it hard to be a good teacher. Students come from all walks of life. Some are extremely hardworking, some are smart but are just plain lazy and some are just coming to school to pass time. I think students that fall into the last category is […]

Relic

On all my overseas trips, i usually take great care not to buy or bring back eccentric looking objects/plants that some roadside vendors sells. Perhaps it’s due to my high skepticism for such objects, many warnings from friends or maybe I’ve read too much mystery books in my life. But seriously speaking, I truly believe […]

What? A Talking cellphone??

Have you ever seen a cellphone that talks, treats you as buddy, bugs you to go school everyday? Haven’t? neither do I until i saw this new Japanese series on Cyber Crimes. It’s quite a cute and refreshing concept.
I always like Japanese dramas series, as their stories are short and more cut to the chase. […]

Birthday Celebration@The Whole Earth

My third birthday celebration was held at a place called ‘The Whole Earth‘ vegetarian restaurant in Geylang. This place is highly recommended by my good JC buddy, Juskawaime. Seriously speaking, going to a vegetarian restaurant is the last thing that comes to my mind. Not because i detest vegetarian food, but I just cant go […]

Unforgettable day

It was a rather special day today. Rather than taking leave specially for leisure, we took leave to settle some important stuffs in the morning.
Had encountered 3 interesting things today:
1. Met an ex-colleague @ Spring. A colleague from my first company upon graduation. He got a very unexpected ’surprised’ look when he spotted me too.
2. […]

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 […]

Wonderful birthday celebration

Many years ago, I don’t celebrate birthdays. It’s not because my friends and family do not bother to celebrate, but i just don’t feel comfy celebrating my own birthday. Maybe because i do not like to be at the center of attraction. No wonder I hated to go through my own wedding.
It’s only during […]
