When it rains, it really pours. Started right after we reach the groom’s place. While waiting for the tea ceremony to commence, I looked out of the apartment, let go of my focus a little and took this shot. Somehow, I felt like that.
Â
Â
Â
Â
Keeping my spirits up. How? Go to youtube, search,
Â
1) Jeff Dunham (this is the best i’ve seen…)
2) Russell Peters (this guy can crack some really mean jokes)
3) MadTV (some are quite funny)
Â
If it doesn’t work… you need to see a doctor.

Finally I got to sleep before 2am for the past 3 weeks? Things are slowing down abit on my side as I recover from the 3 weeks of editing/shooting/website updating. Finally I can take my meals at normal times and leave the house to get some fresh air. The only time I left the house for the past 3 weeks was to run errands and meet clients for dinner.
Â
The other day, me, Chris+Pris checked out this Japanese restaurant, which Nick told me was really really nice. According to him, he wasn’t shown a menu and the chef recommended him based on what he likes. To him, that’s the best ever japanese food he ever had in Singapore. When asked about the bill, I realized it’s one of those “it better be good” prices. So we decided to try it out. I reached a little late and both of them were already seated. First thing they said was, “there is a menu!!”. I’m like… ok. Browsing through the menu, I understand how they could chalk up that “better be good” bill.
Â
We picked out food randomly with some recommendation from the waitress. Had yellow-tail sashimi (die die must have), sea urchins, soba (since when green noodles taste so good?), tomatos… etc. The prices of sashimi is well… “better be good”. And it turned out to be freaking good!! I never knew sashimi tasted like that ever?! I used to think they all taste the same.
Â
Ok, so where’s this place. It’s at Devonshire road (just beside the SPC kiosk along Killeney Road) and it’s called Sushi Yoshida. It’s right beside this restaurant called “Bar-Stop”. If you don’t mind paying a little premium for good japanese food, this is the place to go.
Â
Â
Â
What can I say? Finally, it’s up and running!:D
Â
Â
Now, it’s all combined – the blog and the website. Content managed too for easier updating. So, expect to see more images up on the slideshow whenever they are available. No more going to two different sites to gain information. I’ll be adding more content and images soon. Stay tuned!:D
Â
Be sure to “pull” the screen click on the website link!:)
Â
After all the hard work, I must say, I’m a little relieved now. Back to work on my images. But first, I need a well deserved sleep. *pats back*
Â
Â
Â
Is it just me or everyone else gets the same thing?
Â
– I can be in front of the computer for the whole day. The moment I leave the computer, someone sends a message on MSN.
Â
– My phone can be with me the whole time. But when I take a shower, I’ll get like 2 missed calls and 3 messages. Now I take my phone into the shower. So, if you at the other end, thinking that I’m caught in a rain, no I’m not. Oh yes, I’ve also disabled 3G video conferencing.
Â
– I can be awake for 19 hours a day. The 5 hours that I’m not, I get people calling. Something that goes like this… “Are you free to shoot my wedding?”… “Sorry, no, I’m sleeping.”
Â
Alright, just kidding. Silence, I kill you!
Â
Â
I’ve been sleeping really late these days. Which also means I’ve been sleeping quite little (compared to the original specification of 16 hours sleep a day for IDEAL operation). Every night before I sleep, I’ll put up my Ipod and view Jeff Dunham’s videos on youtube till I doze off. Achmed, Melvin, Bubba J, Walter… etc.
Â
Keeps me happy for awhile before I sleep. When I woke up, I found myself screaming…
Â
“I KILL YOU!!!!”
Â
I knew I had an overdose. Silence!! Damnit!!:D
Â
Â
One week of “cyberspace silence”.
Â
Sorry to disappoint you folks, but I’m not dead yet:P Maybe a little tired, lack of sleep, muscle aches, back pain, enhanced eyebags and a little leaner. So what I have been up to?
Â
Earlier last week, I got a “friendly” reminder on my “aging” blog and website. In this day and age, people seem to be upgrading their websites and blogs more frequently than the teenagers changing their mobile phones. So I took a good look at my website and found some really disturbing news. I can’t update anything on my site because I’m way way over my storage limit (I’m talking about more than double). I know, it’s my fault, I haven’t been doing much housekeeping. But even if I did, I’m sure it’s still over the limit.
Â
So I decided to change to a bigger host. Gab told me the US hosts are not too bad, so I gave it a try. After rebate, I paid 1 cent for a month, but found out a day later that it’s way too slow for my liking. Not when most of my clients are based in Singapore. On the same day, I decided to change to a local host after some research on this pretty informative forum.
Â
From then on, it was non-stop work round the clock. I can’t remember any nights that I slept before 4am. Latest being 830am in the morning when I continued working after watching Man U beat Chelsea. I am hardly out of my chair over the past one week. Except Thurs where I had some fantastic ramen with Chris and Pris at Ramen Santouka and Saturday when I manage to catch some wakes at Punggol and dinner at Ah Zhang with Kelvin, Beth, Mike Ian (sorry, my mistake for mistaken identity:P) and partner. Oh yes, the “pork” ribs are wonderful… 😀
Â
And yesterday, I pop by mum’s place and grabbed a handful of dumplings. It’s been awhile since she made them. Those delicious little rice cakes!:D~~ One more thing, Tabasco sauce with dumplings… BEST!!
Â
There’s more work to be done. I don’t want to stop the momentum, so let’s say, another 3 more day/nights of slogging, you should be seeing something new up here:D
Â
I’m digging a deep deep hole…Â and letting work bury me alive.
