Saturday Night

Drove my “Ang” early in the morning to work.
Finally, I got a chance to use the car.
Met my new employer.
Ran some errands.
Visited my mum.
Came home, nua a while
And went to in-laws for the ritual Saturday dinner – alone.
Its a boring Saturday.
And its gonna be a boring Saturday night.
My ‘Ang’ still [...]

Nature’s Remedies

Local Artiste

I’m either treading on thin ice or striking a few chords here.

I chanced upon this news bulletin on TV about a launch of a Jack Neo’s new movie, casting Fann Wong. The usual interview, blah blah blah…..and as reporters are…they asked about Christopher Lee.

To qualify myself before I’m being bombarded by Fann’s fans, I’m neither [...]

Reaction

By some Nabei luck, I kena allergic reaction!!!!!
My face and neck is full of rashes. Red, Swollen & Itchy!!! Luckily, my body is quite alright. After thinking what went wrong, I concluded it must be dirt or dustmites at my aunt’s place. I was tired and laid down my head to rest. The bugs must [...]

Leaving

As heavy as I lugged my feet into my boss’ room, I walked out of his room with a heavy heart.
Just as you’ve heard the $750,000 HDB flat transaction at Tiong Bahru, the private housing is clocking a selling price at about $2000 per square foot, the shortage of commercial land that URA has [...]

Recipe of the Month

Any meat eater would love this. I call this “Jing Du Pai Gu”. Typically, Zi Char stalls served them in big pork chop slabs together with the bone. My “Ang” find them too troublesome to eat in big slabs, so I remove the bones and chop them into smaller bite size. Again, my recipe is [...]

No merchants had earned a single cent from me.No restaurants had taken any reservations from me either.My father, someone whom [...]
