4:38pm @ EssoMobile petrol kiosk... iNO Handphone... made in Singapore product~ featuring big-and-cannot-missed buttons aimed at giving the elderly target market their cents worth for user-friendliness~ the phone even TELLS you which button you have pressed in audio form! Good to buy for your aged mom and dad~ (then again, it looks too much like a calculator... and what irks me the most is: why is it that nowadays, all new products start with an 'i' infront of the name?! iphone... inano... iservice... itoiletbowl... iradio... iTV... iRefridgerator... )

Huge plate of Mee Rebus @ Parkway Parade's basement foodcourt... Yummy~
Oh, I bought my very first Toolbox... to me, I think buying a toolbox is a significant thing in a guy's life... earning the skills to be the household's handy man... to be skillful in the arts of repairing and fixing stuff... and be someone that others can rely on... Now to fill it with some tools... kekeke7:22pm... Spent some quality time with my gf at East Coast beach... enjoying the breeze and watching the sunset...

12:51pm... Meeting @ Tokkuri Japanese Restuarant at ICON Village... I love Japanese Food... and had one too many sashimi that day until I was still burping sashimi in the evening... (the photo below is not the only plate we had...)... Oh, Tokkuri Restaurant serves very decent Japanese food at reasonable price. The staff are well-trained and superbly friendly too! They sure know their stuff! If there is anything else I could add, they pronounced the "Irashaimasen" correctly~
2:23pm... Back home in the Kitchen... mum and sis working on some cordycep powder... mom bought a couple hundred dollars of these chinese medicine...
and a huge bag of these empty dissolvable capsules....
so that she could pack the cordycep powders in... Sweet~ I love my mum.
