Marvel Gel?

Had lunch with MW yesterday, and bought this pro serum gel from Cellnique. Supposedly very good for removing blackheads. Face looks cleaner today after applying... :) Very expensive tho. $69.90 from Sasa.

Random Sightings... On Bus Again...

Can't believe this! Saw this when I took bus this afternoon (took time-off this afternoon to study):


It's a young guy this time... What's wrong with him man?? Is this really a new trend??

Phantom!

Saw the musical Phantom of the Opera at the Esplanade yesterday afternoon with NN & her 2 frens.

First time watching it. Cool special effects!! Enjoyed it, tho NN & me a bit blur about the plot cos can't really hear what they were singing...

Random Sightings... On Buses

Have been driving to work for several months now, so haven't been taking buses. Took several buses this weekend and saw so many strange stuff!

Firstly, had karaoke at HQ office on Friday, and took bus home. As it was pretty late, I decided to board the first bus that arrived, and change bus a few stops away where I have more buses to take. Anyway boarded the 1st bus and was welcomed aboard by very loud mandarin. There was a lady from China talking very loudly on her mobile in the mid-section of the bus. Then when I walked past her, realised that she was sitting with her legs on the bus seat, occupying the entire seat which was meant for 2 people...

Then, on the 2nd bus, there was an old uncle who was sitting at the seats facing each other, and he "kiao" his leg on the opposite seat facing him! So he alone took up seats for 4 people! The only redeeming point was that he took off his shoes before putting them on the seat. And then, there was an auntie sitting behind the uncle, and she also had her legs on the seat!!

Really strange seeing all these in one nite! Is it a trend now?

Took bus 851 today, and horror of horrors, spotted baby cockroaches about 1 cm in length wondering around!! Spotted 6 of them within the half hour ride home!! Infestation!! Had to change from a window seat to an aisle seat cos there was a cockroach crawling at the side of the bus next to me!! And the guy who took my seat subsequently spotted the cockroach and flicked it... ended up on the shirt of the guy sitting next to me!! Narrow escape for me!! But I also had to jump away from this guy when he tried to flick the cockroach away.

Driving seems pretty boring in comparison to taking buses!

Music & Lyrics

Went to watch the movie "Music & Lyrics" on Sunday. Nice show! Chick-flick of coz. I like! :) Nice songs too!

On Target Or Not?

It's our company's Family Day today, held at the SAFRA Yishun Country Club. Went with NN (rather late tho cos we couldn't wake up so early on a Sat :p) Lots of activities to try out, including telematches in the pool, rock climbing, bowling and air rifle shooting. Check out my shooting card! 43 points out of 50. Not bad huh? :)

Time For Shopping Again!

Went to the IT Show 2007 at Suntec with my IT gadgets shopping partner WW today. Finally got my 80GB Seagate hard disk at $98.

One word to describe the shopping experience. Cheap!! $11.50 for a 1GB SD card, and $20.50 for a 1GB Imation thimbdrive!! Forgot that I was recently given a laptop (which has a card reader) and bought an SD card reader... for $3.90. The laptop prices are also quite low. Can get one for as low as $999, and the higher end ones with pretty good specs (e.g. 1 GB RAM, separate graphics card) for as low as $1,699! And branded digital cameras of 8 megapixels going for as low as $399! Incredible prices!

Hmm... this blog sounds like an ad... :)

Wish Come True

My colleagues in HQ had all been given laptops. Was so envious... but... got mine today!! Yippee!! Acer TravelMate 3290. The most shiok part is that it has 1GB RAM! Cool! Now it'll be easier to work from HQ when I need to go there, which is rather frequent :)

Cute Rain?

Korean singer/actor Rain was in Singapore recently for his "Rain's Coming World Tour" concert, and the ticket prices ranged from $188 to $888!! Cheapest tickets at $188 is more expensive than the most expensive tickets for most concerts!! I was wondering what was Rain's charm and why people would buy his concert tix at such prices, so rented the show Full House (which he acted in) to watch.

After the first episode, I was not impressed... He's not that 帅 and his acting was ok only leh. But after a while, slowly begin to see his charm... cutey cute kind. Cute guy, but I definitely won't pay $188 to watch 2cm of him from the far end of the Indoor Stadium...

Like the show Full House though. Exact same story line as Goong - famous guy 'forced' to marry girl when he actually likes another girl. Girl however falls for guy, made complicated by another guy who falls for girl. Guy eventually falls for girl of coz, and they live happily ever after. Similar to Goong, I thought the lead actress (Song Hye Kyo in this case - feel that she looks a bit like 蘇慧伦. Think so?) acted much better than the lead actor.



Think I prefer Full House compared to Goong, cos the entire show focuses on the 2 main characters, whereas Goong had other sub-plots like the palace politics, and the love story between the King and his sister-in-law etc.

Oh, and love the house in the show! How nice if can own a house like that! =)
