Adiós Toilet
Adiós, Sayonara, Au revoir, Ciao, Sawatdi, Annyong-hi kashipshio, bye bye and zhai hui le to our nearly 30 years toilet...
To pee alone, is a god given right.
A toilet is, a place you can think.
It's easier than, to sit on the sink.
A toilet is, a friend to all drunks.
Supports you all night, when hurling up chunks.
A toilet is, a place for your buns.
That you appreciate, when having the runs.
A toilet is, used by us all.
It's universal, to answer the call.
A toilet is, just what it is.
It gets rid of our crap, in a river of piss.
Thank you Mr Toilet, it's time to say goodbye.
bye bye toilet!!

Kopi Culture
I don't understand hokkien so my Singlish is of course below C level. =P Today I finally went to Heads or Tails for their steamed bread with thai's kaya. I have been wanting to go try after watching it on Channel U's Makan King program. Heehee! I am such a Foodie. I went along with a colleague and she was trying to orientate with the Singlish Coffee jargons that Moi should use whenever I order my kopi instead of using "Coffee with sugar and milk". Kekekeke! Being the ever so studious and zealous student, I took down each meaning carefully... *wink*
- Kopi - Coffee with sugar and condensed milk
- Kopi-O - Coffee with sugar, no condensed milk
- Kopi-Kosong - Coffee with condensed milk, no sugar
- Kopi-O-Kosong - coffee only
- Kopi-C - Coffee with sugar and evaporated milk
- Kopi-peng - Kopi with ice
- Siu Tai - less sugar
- kao - extra strong black coffee
Heehee... FULL MARKS for Moi!! Kekekeke! Oops...we haven't got into the part for tea yet. =P
Anyway, me and my colleague had steamed bread with Pandan Kaya, Yam Kaya and Chicken Floss with Condensed milk spread. Both the steamed bread and the spread are very, very soft and fresh. The price is Kopitam price so it's really value for money. I had this phobia with the taste of orange-coloured iced thai milk tea and was apprehensive to order it despite STRONG "promotion" by my colleague. I settled with a Kopi-C while she ordered her MUST-drink iced thai milk tea. After much persuasion, I finally took a sip. It was very NICE.. heehee! I love it. Heads or Tails' iced thai milk tea does not have the strong Star Ansie taste so it was really lovely. So for those who are curious enough, do try the iced thai milk tea during your visit to the Heads or Tails.

Me : Yes. I told you I am not interested. Please stop calling.
Caller : You will get in cash $X after you complete the survey....
Me : Not interested. Please don't call again.
Caller : This survey....Blah blah blah
Moi stopped listening...and ignoring all the rubbish coming out from caller's mouth.
Me : I am going to put the phone right now....I am not listening and don't you call again
SLAM THE PHONE DOWN!! Phone goes Ouch!!
Less than a few seconds, Rrrrrrrring 3...
I decided not to take up the call. So my colleague took up....
Colleague : I gave her your email address. She said she will email you the link to do the survey.
Me : WHAT??? *ANGRY*
Less than a few seconds, You've got mail...Without opening, the mail was sent to trash immediately.
At the end of the day, she called again.
Caller : Hi, I am BCF from DEF. My colleague had send you an email...blah blah blah...you just need to click on the link and ....
Me : I think I told you NOT to call again. I DUN WAN to do the survey.

Choices
Dumbledore to Harry Potter in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
Pork Knuckle
Posting on food again!! Hahahahaha! Yes! Remember, I am living to eat and not eat to live. ;-P This place was highly recommended by a friend who wanted to bring us all to try authentic German sausage and pork knuckle. Coincidentally, this place was also recommended just last week on Channel U's Makan King.
Well, the idea of eating pork knuckle did seem rather sinful with rocketing cholestrol and oil BUT my friend assured that it's not going to be so. SO we ordered.... their pork knuckle in Bavarian Style. This place serves pork knuckle in two ways - Bavarian or Berlin style - meaning either grilled or boiled. Drooooooling. The taste is simply irresistable. The meat is moist and tender and the skin is so crispy and chewy. The chef managed to grill it very gently to remove all the excess fat and oil. Yummy yummy!! b(^o^)d *Thumbs up*
Other than their very special signature dish, we also ordered a bowl of salad of iceberg lettuce, two pumpkin soup, a beef tartare (raw grounded beef with egg, eaten by my friends), a cheese sausage, a chicken sausage with Kale, a majest herring served with mashed potato, a plate of baked potatoes in skin, a pizza-like dish known as flammkuchen topped with sour cream, ham and onion. The flammkuchen is different from the normal pizza for its use of creme fraiche or fromage blanc instead of a tomato paste. I specially like flammkuchen (German style pizza) as the crust is so very thin and crispy.
They also served very unique desserts. We ordered two : a toasted cheese dessert in cranberry sauce, chocolate mousses and a Gebackene Apfelscheiben mit Zimthonig which is baked apple slices in puff pastry with honey and powdered cinnamon. The toasted cheese did not taste anything like cheese at all.... it was neither sweet nor too cheesy. It was really nice... The baked apple slices were served pipping hot and emitted a nice fragrance. 
The whole restaurant has only two chefs. Today, unfortunately one was on leave and only one chef was preparing all the dishes. It was amazing to watch him from our table serving so many patrons single-handedly and yet still able to dish out nice, pipping hot dishes. *jaws dropped*
This place is definitely worth a trip. There were 5 of us and discounting our drinking fees containing German beer, Monkpils and German red wine; the total only came up to S$150.00. Amazing price for such delicaces where all the ingredients were air-flown from Germany and the 2 German chefs took so much pride to prepare each dish attentively. The setting is also very cosy and simple. Other than food and wine, the adjoining room beside the restaurant also sells German food stuffs, pickles etc. I believe Magma will be a good hangout for the German Expatriates staying in Singapore. Moi will definitely be going back again for the food!! (^_-)v

For Lao Gong
I bet most of you have heard of the Lao Po Bing (老婆餅 translated as Wife Cake in English) but have yet heard of Lao Gong Bing (老公饼 translated as Husband Cake in English). Today Twinny passed this to Mummy....
So what is the difference between Lao Gong Bing and Lao Po Bing? It is said that the Lao Gong Bing is saltish and blend in taste while Lao Po Bing is sweet and delicate in taste. The size of Lao Gong Bing is also bigger and "rougher" to signify masculine while Lao Po Bing is more "feminine".
Did a little check up on the origin of Lao Po Bing...and found 3 different stories.
Story 1
Once upon a time, there lived a very much loving but poor couple. The father was very sick and they did not have any money to treat him. The daughter-in-law sold herself to a landlord as a maid to pay for her father-in-law treatment. The husband missed his wife dearly but did not give up hope to reunite with his wife one day. To earn money to redeem his wife, he spent time to create a very tasty cake to sell in the streets. As he missed his wife very much, he cried "Lao Po" as he peddled his cakes in the streets and so earned the name "Lao Po Bing" for his cake. His cake was so tasty that he managed to earn enough money to redeem and reunite with his wife AND they lived happily ever after.
Story 2
This story explains why even though Lao Po Bing is a Guangdong's snack, it is also known as "Chao Chow Lao Po Bing". It is said that a man from Chao Chow came to Guangdong to become a baker. During one of his visits home, he presented to his wife many Guangdong's delicacies that he made. His wife upon tasting the cakes, lamented that the cakes tasted nothing compared to her own cake that she made with Wintermelon. The baker tasted her wife's cake and found them very tasty so he brought some back to Guangdong for the other bakers to try. Everyone who tasted his wife's cake, was full of praises. As the cake was made by the Chao Chow's man's wife, it was called "Chao Chow Lao Po Bing"
Story 3
The third story is rather similar to the first story. Once upon a time, there lived a very loving but poor couple. The wife made cake with wintermelon for her husband to peddle in the streets. The cake was very well received and to thank his wife, the husband named it "Lao Po Bing".
Well...so how did Lao Gong Bing came about? Well, as mentioned earlier, the Lao Po Bing has a very sweet and nice taste to represent "甜甜蜜蜜" or sweetness while Lao Gong Bing has a saltish taste. This is because in Guangdong, lecherous man is known as "咸色" (translated as Salt Lust in English) so Lao Gong Bing tastes saltish. The wives making Lao Gong Bing will be chanting "你这个咸色佬，我要放多些盐，咸死你，咸死你！" as they make Lao Gong Bing. Hahahahaha! So All the MAN out there, you had better watch out. =P
100th Post

On ne voit bien qu'avec le cœur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeu
Title : Le Petit Prince
Author : Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Yr of Published : 1943
Author : Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Yr of Published : 1943
It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye. This is the famous line uttered by the fox to the Little Prince in Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's Le Petit Prince (translated as The Little Prince in English). There are also two other main points in the book, both spoken by the fox which are also very meaningful. They are: "You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed" and "It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important". These are essentially the little things that even a child know but essentially we had failed to see it ourselves from time to time even when we know and understand it.
Throughout the book the children's view on the world, on the main points of the human life and relations between people, which is represented by the Little Prince and partially by the narrator, is set off against the "grown-ups'" one, revealed in memories of the narrator and in the characters, met by the Little Prince on asteroids. But the author underlines, that the "grown-ups" are like that. One must not hold it against them. Children should always show great forbearance toward grown-up people."
Stuck in the Lift
The lift was barely 3 months old and it broke down and I WAS INSIDE. Got quite a little shock. The lights went out and the door did not manage to close fully, leaving a tiny vent of about 5 cm apart. I tried pressing all the buttons but to no avail. I was desperate to get out of the whole lift before it came crashing down or the doors decided to shut completely. So I force-opened the doors and crawled out of the lift. DRAMA?? Yup... it's sure was drama.
Upon reaching home, mum said to me...
Mom : Someone just now kena stuck inside lift. But pressed only 2 times, stopped already.
Me : Mom, it was ME.
Mom : No lah.. just pressed only. I think someone stuck inside the lift.
Me : Mom, i climbed out from the lift just now.
Mom : Dun bluff ...
Me : Ya lah.. Come and look at the signal.
what a night. Yes!! To all, I am not Sadako (貞子), I climbed out of the lift not from the television. =P And guess what i saw among Little Junior Ted's toys...cute little Bernie!!! Heehee!
Gather of the Witches
So the witches gathered once again.....
Round about the caldron go;
In the poison'd entrails throw;
Toad, that under cold stone,
Days and nights has thirty-one
Swelter'd venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i' the charmed pot!
The witches made their way into the Japanese Village after their chants ritual to fill up their tummies. (Witches also must eat what....eat air meh!!) The Japanese Village serves quite a good variety of Japanese food like Sushi, Donburi, Agemono, Noodles, nabe yaki, tempura, etc. to meet the stringent requreiments of the four hungry witches. Each witch had only need to pick up different "ice-cream sticks" to indicate their choices and their food would be served. The place serves quite a good variety of Japanese food and services are also good. The special highlight of the Nihon Mura is the sushi - all of them are selling at only 99 cents per plate. It's quite a nice gathering place that serves reasonable Japanese food at a budget price.
I had ....
miso soup - S$3.90 (it's a gaint bowl enough to serve 4 pax)
chicken Katsu don - S$8.50
Diet Coke - S$1.50
Plus other numerous food ordered by the other witches. The total bill chalked up less than S$100.00 for 4 pax. The money is definitely worthwhile and economical.

A Date with ABC Junior
Only because I miss her lots so we had dinner together. 
Kurobuta (literally translated as Black Pork) is the most highly prized pork in Japan and comes from the ancient breed of pig known as Black Berkshire. The taste is superb. The meat is sweet, rich flavour, with a delicate texture and an unbelievable level of juiciness. The restaurant deep fried it so well that the skin is cprisy and dry while the meat inside is still soft and tender. Yummy!!! I love Tonkatsu and Tonkatsu made from Kurobuta is even better. 
We ate quite a number of other things but I didn't really have time to take shots with Kanon cos I was too occupied playing with ABC Junior. The only next photo I took was our dessert. It was jelly mixed with orange and frozen. It was yummy yummy and very fruitty so it was nice, nice too. 
After dinner went over to Mediya to buy MISO for mom but ABC paid for it instead. Thanks Dear. As I said Bye bye to Junior ABC, I felt kind of sad... She is just soooooooooo adorable. Her tight tiny hug and warm little kiss on my cheek still lingering on......i am gonna miss u so much, my Dear, dear ABC Junior. =(

She uses her left hand, i use my right hand. She wears high heels, i wear flats. We are very different yet very similar. We both suffered from detachment problem, we care a lot for family, friends and animals. As I get to know her more and more, I am beginning to find more similarities in Her in Me, I am beginning to like her very much.
We met up for dinner and drinks at Clarke Quay yesterday. We decided on a Japanese restaurant that I actually frequent with my boss. It's kind of middle range a little bit expensive but still affordable. Though I have frequent the restaurant quite often, the ordering task had never been mine so I got quite lost looking at the pictureless menu. These are what we had :-
After our food, we proceeded to The Crazy Elephant at Clarke Quay, where yet another 2 friends joined for drinks. First time for me to drink at Crazy Elephant, quite a nice cosy place if you are seated outside where you can enjoy the nice sea view and breeze and still catch the jam upstairs. Of course if you want to enjoy the nice jam full blast, you got to proceed to the second floor. Dear Girl treated me drinks. ^_-) We continued to chat much and we shared a little bit more. I love this girl for her positiveness and determination. AND of course for her beauty and brain. Thanks Dear.

Turn Left Turn Right
I am supposed to meet SuSe to pick up Little Furry Boy to visit Vetty today....however I got a last minute work assignment at 615pm. What a time and so I got to rush to complete it.... So imagine how Paiseh it was that I had to ask SuSe to help go pick up furry boy first and I would go down to the animal clinic directly. 15 minutes before the appointment, AND I am still stuck in office... so got to ask SuSe to proceed and help me explain to Vetty what's wrong with furry Boy and stuffs. Then was rushing down and hoping to at least catch SuSe to pay for Furry Boy's medical bills....er... end up I still couldn't make it in time. So really really super, super Paiseh!! But I still intended to just meet up with SuSe to make up for it but then SuSe's mummy got lock out of the house and so SuSe had to even quickly send Furry Boy back home for me and then rushed off. So it's triple Paiseh. Big Thanks to SuSe, if u are reading this. ;-) Really owe u one. SOooooo it's like a turn left and turn right situation, we were supposed to meet but never met. Kekekeke!
But since I was already on the way in the train, decided to take a stop further to Tampines to tabao nice dinner for Mummy and Little Junior Ted. yup yup yup!! Little Junior Ted is staying over again. *Beams* I went to a little Cafe Restaurant on the 4th floor serving Hongkong Style dishes. I had been there once with Mummy, Wonderland Auntie, Twinny and her Dearie previously and we all enjoyed the food very much. This shop was even recommended by one of the TV programme here.
So what did i tabao? Da Dum...

A Day as a Tour Guide and Mr Brolly Again
I am used to bringing overseas friends and guests around Singapore but TODAY is the first time I am bring 26 people for a ONE-day Singapore Tour. I really felt like a tour guide.... I was exhausted and extremely tired.
Brought a whole bunch of Uncles and Aunties of more than 70s to the esplanade, Sentosa, Raffles hotel, lunch and dinner too. Took some snapshots during my guiding. First, we went for Bak Kut Teh or in chinese Rou Gu Cha. This is by far, my favourite Bak Kut Teh stall at this moment. I like the light peppery taste of the soup. I usually would have 4-5 bowls of the soup, minimum.
While waiting for the rain, couldn't resist to take some more shots. It's sure a good opportunity to take raining pictures......
The stubborn rain was still pouring so we headed for some drinks to warm our bodies. heehee! Went down to Long Bar inside Raffles Hotel. Was so touched by the Aunties who went to buy a Jim Thompson tee for me. They were so worried that I would get sick from the rain and insisted that I changed into the new tee. *Heartmelt again*
I was told of a mystery story behind the founder of the Jim Thompson brand, Mr Jim Thompson,himself. During the Easter weekend in 1967, Jim Thompson disappeared while on holiday with friends in Cameron Highlands, a northern Malaysian resort. An extensive and extended search failed to reveal any clues about his disappearance. Till date, no signs were ever found of him.... imagine how rich he will get for all the royalties from his brand.
