Would you buy weird clothes ?

was raining & we were bored !
Friend ask me : Would you buy weird clothes?
I go:   whatever for?
She said : You know, just for fun, to be unusual to set the trend, the usual shit !
Me: How weird ?
She sent me this-

I go : This is not weird, this is stupid & not practical, & hot. Your parts can't breathe & you'll develop a rash for sure !
End of discussion !

Quote of the Day: Socrates

A monster in Jurong Chinese Garden !

Come on, I'm not exaggerating look at the picture below!

Godzilla was tiny too before being expose to radio active rays. So this 'bigger than usual' lizard has the potential. By the way a friend went there & took this picture. Me? No I'm not going anywhere near "monsters in the making" lurks ... LOL 

Stop texting/or sms boring shit !!!

Before texting in any group chats, (be it to friends, colleagues or family) you should be mindful of your topics. If anything you text/sms sounds like topics discussed in an old folks home, i.e. what are you doing? what are you eating, did you poop today ?, it's hot/cold today, DON'T text it. Better still, think of what other people are doing at that moment, you could be distracting them.

I was in the middle of a meeting with a client just now & my friend text " it's so hot today! " followed by " eating chicken rice for lunch later." A few minutes later, "what are you eating later ?". There's 5 in this particular group chat. One is a teacher, she's in the middle of a class. Another is a nurse, she's in the middle of changing a patient's dressing or something important. Another like me is in an important meeting talking to a client. All of us receiving her 3 messages!!! urgh.....

Then later the rest of us have to text each other to complain about her earlier texts! This could easily takes up the whole day !

Decaf coffee? yucks !

Last month the Boss  brought a bottle of decaf coffee & place it in the office pantry. Ever since then, everyone has been totally going "decaf " for health reasons. Or maybe they just want free coffee. Not sure if it's all in the mind or whatever, they all reported feeling sleepy after drinking ,as its "DECAF" after all, supposedly no caffeine. The mass tiredness felt became like an excuse to work at snail pace, or maybe everyone is just in a holiday mood.

Seriously no office or workplace should provide a drink that doesn't enhance productivity while at the same time making people's breath smell like rotting spinach!

Last week I came to work & noticed the bottle of decaf - gone. The Boss has not replaced it with another bottle since then ...lol...

I feel guilty all the time.

Do you feel guilty all the time ? I do.
I feel guilty for lazing in my bed for an extra 10 mins this morning.
I feel guilty that I didnt reply my boss's SMS last night (he sent it pass 12 mid night)
I feel guilty I didn't reply that SMS immediately when I get up, I brushed my teeth first.

I read a book recently, it says: Don't feel guilty for feeling guilty !
We should accept guilt is part of us, like cellulite.
Think of it, it makes sense:
Guilt does makes me work harder, in the future I'll  probably answer my Boss's sms even if its way after hours.
Guilt means I'll always be early or at least on time for all appointments.
It'll make me be nicer to people, & buy tissue from old people.
Pay my bills on time.
Guilt turns life into a long guilt trip, but in a good way....lol...

Durians & MRT ...lol..

A few of my Hong Kong friends were in town for 3 days. Being host I took them around. We had a lot of fun. It's the first time to Singapore for Andy, the 21 year old younger brother of one of them. The most unforgettable thing about their stay was their ride on our MRT.

The comparison to their MTR (as what they call it in Hong Kong) is unavoidable. What we lack in speed, we made up for space. Ours not as crowded. And of course newer. Plus we are funnier ....lol.. Yes we are : Just look at the sign below. Andy took multiple pictures of this sign & sms to all his Hong Kong buddies immediately. We laughed non-stop , at his excitement , which is very hilarious- In fact I didn't even noticed this sign till now. I can't help but took a picture of it too, while rest of the commuters looked on, amused !
