lazy ass of me

14 Aug 2005 In: Observations

i’ve been a lazy ass this past week.. din update AT ALL… haha but did took some interesting fotos to share wif u… plus a game tt might make u addicted to it… ;)

first up.. the photos… went to orchard on wednesday wif d intention of watching willy wonka (charlie and choc factory lah) but it was sold out… ended up walking ard cineleisure and heeren area juz to while away the opportunity of being in orchard (i’m pretty deprived fyi..)

the heeren shops ads

i love good headlines.. and i think this is one of those tt is really effective in presenting the mood and attitude tt is the heeren shops… especially love the first one and the last one.. ahhaha if i ever follow rule no. 01 den i’ll sure be super broke… =) i’m always in doubt… ahahhaha

and if you are or know people who are golf crazy… perhaps this would be a good housewarming/bday pressie?

golf fanatics need apply

though i’m thinking who in the world would spend 150 on two glasses wif a golf ball IN the stem! how do u hold it? izzit ergonomically designed den? =P

and finally… go play ‘DINERS DASH’… ahahhahha shall not say more.. google it and try it out urself… juz rem to play it when u’re off work… ;)

the pressures of being a trolley

the pressures of being a trolley, originally uploaded by i am yj.

i’m a trolley… my daily routine includes being pushed up and down asisles at supermarkets… or being herded around into rows… my greatest joy in life is to be filled up to the brim… yummy

life used to be so easy for me… i could be brought to places that i’ve never seen before… into elevators, fields, dark corners or simply used as a ski/sleigh… we were revolutionaries, we had wheels!

that’s until people got smart and decided to chain us all up… now we are stuck together… yanked by that tiny puny chain with the slot for the golden coin (nope not golden ticket… golden coin)

i dun like being chained up… we have gangs u know… some of us dun really like other groups.. and woe betide u if u were unfortunately chained up wif a rival trolley gang… they can push u ard but u can’t do anything abt it…

its such a stressful world for a trolley like me… =P

seafood crispy noodle

seafood crispy noodle, originally uploaded by i am yj.

yesterday after a hard (half) day’s work… i went to eat lunch wif my colleague… and this was wat i ate… it’s four bucks… BRIMMING wif gravy and seafood ingredients over a ‘nest’ of crispy noodles…

and i couldn’t finish it all… the gravy is very yummy… like the restaurant sharksfin soup sort… if u only hv 4 bucks and around jurong point… pop down to the basement foodcourt n i’m sure u wun be disappointed… =P oh the kebabs are nice too… ;) but not as nice as those frm aussie… bwahahahahahha…

tis d weekend again…

6 Aug 2005 In: Ramblings, Shopping

woke up this morning in a relatively ‘nua’ mood… ten minutes later than i usually would and tt’s all thanks to my mum coz i din hear my phone at all (yes tt’s how konked out i was)…

switched on the tv as per my normal routine and after watching a bit of discovery n nat geo… turned to star world for a bit of newsy news… which was all of 5 mins (doh) but after tt they showed ‘friends’…

watching the first ten minutes reminded me of how much i missed tt sitcom and how i would (try to) religiously watch it on channel five when i was in poly… mondays at ten if i’m not wrong… the witty exchanges… the come-backs… the jokes.. the stupid gestures… i sucked all of them up readily (yes i’m a tv junkie… =P) my fav character is chandler.. his sacarsm n wit (yes and the cynicism) is something tt i would like to hv… ahahhaha plus he’s got his dumb moments too… ;)

anyway… got my pay yesterday and subsequently proceeded to blow it all.. (no lah.. still got lah…) i went to kino (where they had 20% off for members) and bot nigella lawson’s ‘how to be a domestic goddess’ which is all abt comfort baking (not hardcore okay… soft baking… lol) my sis and i are pretty excited =D (she baked a butter cake yesterday thanks to some food blogs she saw online)

den went to taka and happened upon this beautiful and luxurious object… *lusts*

pamper urself wif a bit of luxury

yes.. a sheridan towel… in gold… erhemz… i’m a big fan of nice, huge and yummy towels that sucks up ALLLLLL the moisture frm ur body after u step out frm the bath/shower… no cheap towels tt basically juz spreads water around u will do for me… i’ve gotta feel like the towel works! =)

i’ve got three of these towels tt i bot when i was in aussie… and they’re insanely expensive (a good investment.. they last…) so i would look out for them when it’s sale time… taka was hving a 20% off for the towels so i decided to buy one to pamper my babe.. ;)

another thing i did over the past week was to attend a press conference (it’s been a while man) at club momo (central mall)…

ma razer tatt...

got branded wif this temp tatt of the company’s logo… it’s razer btw (gamers shld know) and they released news of their sponsorship of the WCG 2005 in sg and their latest product ‘razer copperhead’…

wat realllllllly got me was the fact tt in their goody bag (after the event) they gave an ‘eXact Mat’! =O (check out this review) me being the non-gamer (i play the sims and racing games) was pretty impressed wif the mouse pad… when i reached home, i placed it at my computer and asked my sis what she tot of it… she was pretty ok wif it (started complaining about the mouse… -_-”) and this was UNTIL i went online to do some research into the product when i discover the amazing-ness of it…

the mat has TWO surfaces! like a nail file (;P)! a smooth side for gaming and a slightly textured side for photoshop, graphic work! how cool is that! (n it’s made of anonised aluminum… hrm okay…) and there we were thinking ‘how come its got two sides har… izzit u can flip over when one side is dirty?’ damn kewl…. my sis was totally impressed and she went on her ‘we need a new mouse’ argument aft tt… =P

hvn’t got time to take a photo of it.. once i hv i’ll definitely post it up… ;) in the meantime do a google search if u wanna find out more…

wat the…

5 Aug 2005 In: Weird

walking past jurong east yesterday (had a half day to run some errands) i saw the weirdest thing in the world…

these are not masks… they are…… tissue paper holders! very ‘wat the!??!!’ right?

plus they’re like totally ‘creative’ in the way the tissue comes out frm the ‘box’… some comes out frm the mouth section.. there’s a fist somewhere and i think there’s an ‘ass’ version too… =P

can’t imagine how and where u would put this in ur home.. though i must say it would be hilarious to hv the ass version in ur loo! haahhaha
