Dance like no one's watching

A few years ago, I asked a teacher friend of mine why did she adopt her husband’s surname.  She said it was because if she got pregnant in the future, she did not want her students to think that she had a baby out of wedlock.  I thought that was a fair enough answer though […]

  Now I’m pissed.  We lost the COE bid by $1.  WTF is wrong with Tan Chong?  If they could bid $4,388 for us the last time, why was it only $2692?  Weren’t they cutting it too close?  Couldn’t they have at least raised the bid to $3,000? They better offer us an Open Cat […]

I was quite incensed when I got an email from a London underwriter saying that he is not keen to underwrite contracts governed by Singapore law.  What a snooty, ill-informed London born Chinese.  Does he not know that Singapore law was derived from English law; that the English appeal courts have cited judgements made by […]

Haven’t had time to edit the photos yet… crap… just realised my Toshiba thumbdrive’s gone missing too so now I can’t transfer the fireworks pics from my office pc to my home pc.  Grr…

I had an argument with my mom this morning.  Every morning, I take the PIE and exit via slip road 3A to get to Simei Road.  Last Sunday, a new traffic light became operational at the slip road.  This traffic light helps pedestrians walking from Tampines St 31 to Simei Road to cross the slip […]

I had a disagreement with Bubbs during lunch today.  We saw these snow globes at Kalm’s and she said the figurines in the globes look like the ones at this exhibition she saw in HK.  She said it was by the same guy who authored "Turn Left Turn Right" (TLTR).  I peeped under 1 of […]

Sometimes I think too much instant messaging and text messaging is not good.  We get so used to keeping everything brief, we forget that it is important to paint the context of our message.  I have a friend who often uses names in group conversations… but these names that she mentions, are names of people […]

I was complaining to an ex-colleague yesterday about Raffles Medical Centre’s inefficiency and she told me that last month, she visited the OUB Centre branch because she was suffering from food poisoning.  The medicine she got wasn’t helping so over the weekend, she went to the Raffles Medical Centre near her place in Tampines.  She […]

    I’ve always felt that the doctors at Raffles Medical Centre suck ‘cos whenever i visit them for medicine for cold/flu, the medicine they prescribe never seem to work.  Last Tue, when my throat infection first started, I wanted to nip it in the bud and so I visited them straightaway.  The doc at Raffles […]

    This is one of those your view, my view, we agree to disagree things but I just had to get it off my chest.  Next week is my company’s D&D.  The theme is "Shanghai Night" so it was no surprise that a lot of the ladies in the office wanted to get a cheongsam […]
