Walkie talkie (294/365)

This is the walkie talkie carried by the hotel room service guy whom we trouble quite a few times just the first night of our trip.

First, we needed more pillows, then we needed more towels. Don't ask me why we never check properly before we made the call. And they say that there was a safe deposit box, which we wouldn't find so the person had to come up and show it to us. Thankfully for me, his walkie talkie is red!

cleaning in progress

woots! i like the colour of this cleaning sign! it's the first time im seeing it in green! found this outside taka toilet.

this common sign is usually in yellow. what a rare find and in a shade of green that i like!

let's have more signs in green! haha!

 

Cigar at duty free (293/365)

Before I board the plane today to head to Bangkok, we stopped by the duty free so that my smoke friend ( i hate call her this way) could buy cigarettes for the whole trip. And then someone suggested trying cigar and tada! We bought cigar for the trip. Cigar could range from very cheap like 10 plus 20 bucks to 100 plus bucks. This is just mid range. and it happens to be red in packaging so i took a picture of it.

Omega milk

Osteoporosis is common among more mature ladies. Hence, it is important that we ladies have sufficient calcium intake and what's best to get this source of nutrient is from drinking milk! Besides being rich in calium, Omega milk has this improved ingredient called plant sterols that helps to reduce heart disease. Drinking a cup of omega milk a day can help reduce your risk of heart disease as well!

my grandma used to drink the 3in1 milo instead of milk powder even though milk has more calcium because of the inconvenience of having to make your own milk and not knowing how much milk powder to put in. it's alittle troublesome. but not to worry! omega milk has the 3in1 packets too! and my grandma loves it! makes drinking milk so much easier! and besides you don't need to put hot water, just your normal room temperature will do! how convenient is that! and the taste is nice too. at least thats what my grandma said, she loves it! so now i'll buy 2 packets for her every month and whenever i go to visit her to replenish her omega stocks, she always tells me its running out already! so i guess the milk is really nice. happy and makes me feel assured that my grandma is taking in enough calcium because she has really weak legs. so hopefully her health will be better!

 

storage space

found this little storage trolley at my tutee's place. i have alot of such storage containers/trolleys/drawers at home but it always seems never enough! this picture reminds me i need to go buy more storage containers to store the barangs i've been accumulating!

and of course, i think i'll go for the colour green! =p

 

Ice cream anyone? (292/365)

I found this in my house and frankly, i'm quite surprised. And that is because the only person whom I though eats ice cream at home is me. and I will definitely NOT buy this flavour. I hate anything remotely cream colour, white or off white. I am a chocolate fan. die hard chocolate ice cream fan. And the other reason why this could never be mine is because i will NEVER buy King's ice cream. Yucks! What more can i say, King's taste creamy and not very authentic ice cream taste. I don't really know how to describe the taste but not good.

Water heater (291/365)

I need water heater, anytime anywhere. I am someone who is super afraid of the cold. even if i just came back on a very hot day. I will just cool myself down by not bathing immediately but i find myself turning on the heater. Of course i don;t bathe the super hot kind, but i need just that hint of eat in my water anytime of the day and anywhere i go. Especially when i go for an holiday. i need the heater in the cold col hotel room.

happy boss' day!

apparently yesterday was bosses' day. we only knew it on the day itself so during lunch time, we went to get a last minute gift for our boss. and because our boss is very rich and probably has everything, we didn't know what to get her. wanted to get her a bouquet of flowers but the ready-made ones weren't pretty. in the end we bought a moet chandon champagne for her! which explains this picture that i secretly took when we were making payment.

so happy boss' day!

 

Ion Orchard

it's been awhile since I walked down along orchard and busking in the light and sound. and especially so now that I'm working in the east, town is too far for me! unlike last time we can still get to go orchard for lunch.

so anyway I got a belated birthday treat today! crystal jade Korean BBQ! yay! thanks nic and BTF for the treat and great time of fellowship! :)

heard the Christmas decorations are slowly coming up. it's only October! but yah, do head down to check out the lightings in a few weeks time!

Comb your hair (290/365)

I heard of a myth, if you want your hair to grow straight and nice, brush it through 100 times. I have yet to try it, maybe someone should and try it for a month. Let me know the results.

wholemeal bread

I love eating bread! well, ok basically im carbs person (a trait both BTF and I share). I can really eat bread everyday! and there are actually many different flavours of bread, especially with the bonjour brand. but of course the most common one is the white bread or the wholemeal bread. the wholemeal bread is of course the healthier one. why is it so? i have no idea. and I don't get why is it always priced higher than white bread! doesn't white bread need more processing and hence a higher cost? never did understand why. just like how brown rice is always more expensive than white rice but isn't. brown rice more natural, hence lesser processing to it?

oh well, I'm just glad to have the occasional promotions or when I feel like indulge and to get to eat wholemeal bread.

Tomatoes (289/365)

I eat tomatoes as part of my diet. I have started a daily tomato eating for close to 2 months. I eat them raw and at the end of the day, after my dinner. It is supposed to be healthy and i to fulfill my daily dose of Vitamin C. I chose tomatoes because it is easy and versatile to eat. Versatile because we can find them in our meals sometimes, like Yong Tau Foo. Nowadays, i will just take one whole tomato as one dish for my Yong Tau Foo.

But my diet has been abit screwed up since i went on holiday. It is not easy to find tomatoes anytime you want it. And even if i found in supermarkets, who is going to chop it for me. Maybe i should learn to eat it just like an apple. Anyway, i'm starting the diet again. And i will last it until my wedding. I will!

weighing scale

this is a classic weighing scale which is a common sight in the market. walked past the minimarket in my estate today and had to take this for my pic of the day. as technology and people advances, I think this kind of weighing machine might get phased out soon and be replaced by electronic ones! so maybe you can consider going out to buy one now cos they might be worth a sum of money when they become antiques next time!

Pretty Alcohol (288/365)

I chanced upon this when i was looking for alcohol. I'm quite a drinker recently. I found the joy of drinking slowly in good company, chatting, and having fun. And ending off with a little tipsy at the end. =)

So, this is such a pretty alcohol. I wanted to buy it, but i never really like anything other than wine and beer. So i just took a picture of this.

Eversoft Shower Foam

I've been using bath & body works shower gel for the past few months and I really love it. but recently I think Eversoft must be having some kind of promotions cos i saw 2 big bottles in our bathroom. my mum must have bought it cos we never use this brand before! smells quite nice. and it says it's for firming and toning, I wonder how true issit! let's see...

My fav piggy bank (287/365)

When GV came out with this as a gift in their combo, i immediately got it. This is a huge piggy bank in the form of a Coca Cola can. As you can see, it is as tall as the photoframe i have behind.

And then shortly after, GV came out with the Coke Zero one, which is black in colour so i cannot post it as a red picture of the day, i got one immediately. And before i could even fill up this red coke can, GV came out with a Coke light one! And i bought it too! So now i have a 3/4 full red coke can, and 2 empty ones. Haha.

I only save $1 and not very consistently. Thus 3/4 filled only.

late night sinful meal

because we didn't have dinner and we were alittle paiseh to eat at cell, BTF and i decided to indulge ourselves in an unhealthy way. both of us had strong craving for macs so we headed to the nearby macs to satisfy the craving. so much for saying we don't wanna have fast food. but yay got to eat my fries!! :)

and BTF reminded me that it's our consecutive 3rd Friday supper together! time just fly when you are in good company. :)

Khong Guan biscuits (286/365)

I used to like such biscuits because they are cheap and comes in quite handy for a tea time snack. But i always only take the chocolate ones. That was before i discovered Chips Ahoy, Famous Amous and Tim Tams.

Now, i only eat Famous Amous. Such biscuits taste abit fake to me now. haha!  i have grown and so has my tongue.

milo snack bar

ok I'm blogging about milo again.. but im not talking about my favourite drink this time. I'm talking about other variants of milo products. so this is the milo chocolate bar! my colleague passed it to me to try but i can't buy to try it yet. not sure if they are available in stores. coming here make me realise that there are actually many other mill products like milo biscuits, milo Choco balls etc! I only knew of milo nuggets and ice cream before this!

milo is still my favourite brand!

PC game (285/365)

I like playinggames on my PC, but never such games as shown below. I like games like Role-Playing kinds, commonly known as RPGs. Sims is a good example of RPG. And i also like to play games that has a story line with time management, like Diner Dash, if anyone knows. My partner on the other hand simply love battle, warfield kind of games. Alot of violence, very very noisy. And he sometimes play bball too. We both think that such games are wasting each other's time. Though we fully enjoy our own genre. I even bought some online because i want to complete it and know the end of the story. Not to mention, i own quite a few versions of Sims. Not pirated kind.
