@ Home.
Manage to trick Pappy into PuiPui's cage... closed the door and trapped Pappy in. For the record, PuiPui (my rabbit) knows how to lift the cage door up and open the cage. These 2 furry friends are so adorable aren't they?Absolutely no idea what made mum cooked all these corns... Sis wanted Corn-in-a-cup with butter and salt, so mum cooked the entire packet... I had a big bowl of corns that afternoon...Dinner @ ChompChomp~
Notice that coin below? Look closer and see that its a 50cents coin. Yes, this is a colossal mug of sugar cane juice... love it~Chicken Wings~ a must have at Chomp Chomps~ squeeze the lime over them~ marvelous~@ Void deck of my block
Love this kitty~ she will go meow meow meow sweetly when u stroke her~ kawaii~

@ Simei Eastpoint NTUC Fairprice.
It've been shopping for groceries NON STOP over the week... its the pre-CNY rush to stock up the fridge and stores with all the CNY goodies and food... its Giants, NTUC, Giants, Giants, NTUC, Giants, NTUC, NTUC, Giants, NTUC, Giants, Giants......This is the day's purchases... one trolley full...
@ Home.
Mum and Sis' attempt at home-made Samosas... Failed. So they rolled them into Popiah shapes instead... Potato and Curry filling~ Yum~Realised I can trap Pappy in the Kitchen with just these boxes of packet drinks... @ the Shell Petrol Kiosk Car Wash drive-thru... had a good buddy to polish the car with me after that~ Clean up the car for CNY~!@ Blk 802 Tampines Ave 4
Had a drink and a plate of Fried Oyster after the car polishing. Fried Oyster there was supposedly famous. In my opinion - FAIL. Too many orders resulted in rush job. Following day, stomach had the runs - MAJOR FAIL, I'll never eat there again.

Spring cleaning... dug out the following antiques~ snapped some photos b4 I threw them away~

Iomega Zip Disk~! 100 MB... leh~! 10 years ago, in my Poly-days, these were like life-savers~! Everyone has one, or two, or alot, for our project works... until the day 128MB flash drives hit the market... It became history. I rememer a 100MB Zip Disk costs $15.80 in year 1999. Now, you can get like 2GB for only $11.00... talk about technology advancement...MRT card. Student monthly pass. Never seen this design before right~???My Bus Consession Pass!
I remember those days where these stamps can bring me ANYWHERE across Singapore... really miss those days when I was still a student...
MOTOROLA JAZZ pager~!!! This is still in perfect working condition okay~~~ I inserted a AAA battery in and the display screen lited up! I was still holding on to a pager until my Poly year 2, in year 2000, until I bought my first handphone. Kept this baby for nearly 10 years already.
