CSI… retro.

 

I guess I’m really in the retro mood today. This song just appeared from nowhere… I think I’m screwed.

 

*drum rolls*

 

“开封有个包青天…”

 

Here’s the video, in case you haven’t heard it before. Did I mention I am super cheena? This is my version of CSI:P

I finally visited Orchard Road in Singapore…

 

… after god know how many years. Ok lah, abit 夸张, but how about record time, I was there for more than 2 hours today:) Don’t play play ok, 2 hours in a shopping mall!! unless I lose my way!!:P Finished a shoot at Ritz and decided it’s about time I KIV something to replace my aging wardrobe (when was the last time I bought a shirt…?) after Christmas. And I had some nice cream puffs and churros… yum… sinful… but I like:D I think I’m starting to have cravings for sweet stuff. Those colourful cupcake toppings… grrrrrrr…

 

Parking in town is also super duper the expensive. Last week, I spent 13 bucks parking at Wheelock place for about 3 hours. Today, I spent about 20+ dollars for parking and ERP in total. I think I’ll take a train next time round. Not because I’m stingy… erm… I’m thinking of the reducing carbon footprint… (yah riiiiiiiiiiight!):)

 

 






A Wedding

 

Just a couple of days back, I attended a wedding, yes, as a guest. Can’t remember when was the last time I attended one. The feeling seem so strange. The moment I walked into the hotel, I knew I lost it… everything seemed to be on autopilot mode:P

 

1) I asked for parking tickets at the reception

2) I asked, “what’s the room number? where’s the bride?”

3) I asked to go to the bridal suite… yes I did.

4) I took a drink and stood near to the couple, waiting for the next piece of action.

5) I forgot about the ang pows (well, eventually I remembered:P)

6) I walked into the ballroom, checking the setup and complained that the lighting’s too dark!

7) I almost went to the photographer and told him “during the march in, I’ll take the left, you take the right…” (and the only camera with me was my mobile phone)

8) I attempted to follow the couple up for change of evening gown.

9) After the 2nd dish, I stopped eating.

10) I stayed till the last guest left…

 

Anyway, during the wedding dinner, I found this waiter who’s serving our table really funny. It all started when my friend asked for a glass of red wine.

 

friend: Can I have a glass of wine?

waiter: yes, would you like red or white?

friend: red please.

me: you have white wine? I’d like a glass please.

*left the table and came back with a glass of red wine*

waiter: I’m sorry sir, we only have red wine.

me: *bewildered* ok, it’s alrite. (then why the hell did he ask if we wanted red or white?)

Anyway, that’s not all. Gradually, the table was filled with other guests. So they decided to ask for a round of drinks as well… the same waiter came…

guest: Can we have 5 beers and 5 wines?

waiter: would you like red or white wine?

guest: red thank you.

*waiter left…*

So we shared what happened earlier and everyone had a good laugh, so we decided to test him again. When he came back with the drinks…

guest: *pointing at me* Can you get him a glass of white wine?

waiter: Sorry, we don’t serve white wine…

 

I was thinking… what the hell, you don’t like me is it?!?

 

 






A note to nephew

 

“Dear Nephew, I know it’s probably pretty comfy in there, but if you are still not coming out, I’m leaving. C’mon, be more cooperative, tonight or tomorrow?”

 

Looks like I may have to extend my stay for another 2 days (max) just for this kid. Just like me, (almost) never punctual:P My sis’s father-in-law joked, “better stay till the baby is out to make sure it’s not a hoax!” (I felt like a witness:P) And when my sis called home to update the situation, my dad said “Ask your brother to come back, the baby’s not coming out when he’s around…” That bad huh?

 

Weather’s good today. Strange that weather turned for the better once APEC is over. Heading for a little walk in Blue Mountains.
