Cake

I make cake. You cannot eat. neither can I.
Karinna baked cake. We can eat. You? Depends.

So she baked one yesterday night.
Guess what, that can be my breakfast/lunch/dinner for today and tomorrow, possibly.
I should be so lucky, qik ki, buey ki, kow ki. I should be so lucky you know!

Apartment in Jakarta

Back in Singapore yesterday night. Definitely good to be home.

The place where we stayed is not particular exciting. Well, exciting if you count the encounter with cockcroaches. Otherwise, it's not great. Weak aircon, no fan, no water heater for bath, no blanket, no towel etc ....


Just make-do with whatever we can for the 4-5 days. But if for too long term, then it's a bit difficult to adjust to.

So we'll make changes to that, hopefully, the next time round, when we go there, especially for my colleagues who may be stationed there for a few months, things can get better.

Some other pictures taken during this short trip
Here's a glimpse of the apartment that I stayed in Jakarta. Kinda bright, coz taken in the afternoon, and sunlight was quite bright for the place:

Jakarta

Now I am in Jakarta. Starting a project here soon, so came down with my colleague to check things out, and do some preliminary training and blueprint works.

Came over here on Monday actually. I went to the airport without any ticket. Just queued at the standby counter, and just wait for seats to be made opened. Luckily, managed to get a seat half hour before the flight, and so here I am!

Was supposed to arrange for return ticket upon reaching, but I forgot! :P
So yesterday called Garuda and managed to confirm a flight back to Singapore on Friday. Funny thing is, must go to the ticketing counter to get the ticket today before 11am! ahhhh... how how?

See how lah. Maybe kena stucked here?!?!?!?

As for the accomodation, quite terok. When back home then I post some pictures of the apartment. hehehe

Glorious Food!

Today had dinner at this place called Ming Kee Live Seafood. It's located along McPherson Road, just next to the coffeeshop that has the famous Kway Chap stall.
If you don't know where it is, too bad. :P

It's not the first time we went there. Karinna and I have been there a couple of time. The last time was during CNY where we had our usual CNY meetup.

This time, we went there with her brother and sister-in-law.

Foodwise, since we've been there a few times, that means it's pretty good lah. It's usually full house on Fri/Sat/Sun as it seems. Better to do reservation if want to go there.

Shall not describe the food, else make you salivate, not so good eh? ;)
However, shall put some pictures here to let you 'imagine' the food.

Of course, can't do without the picture of the hamsom boy and beautiful girl, plus the family members. hehehe


Food pictures shall be smaller to contain your excitement. :P

Modestos

Had dinner with our group of friends at Vivo City's Modestos.

There was this promotion with UOB card that provide some kind of one-for-one deal.
Buy 1 pizza/pasta, can get another pizza/pasta free. Will be charged with the higher priced item. Max 2 free items per table per card per whatever .....

So we ordered for maximum use of the free items, obviously. And definitely not enough, ordered few more others.

The pizzas were not bad. Pastas, hmmmm, so so.
Quite worth the value if go for the special one-for-one deal. :P

After that, went to Pacific Confectionary for drinks. Expensive coffee lah.
Comfy seats though. hehe

Forgot to bring camera to take pictures though.

Split Second

Not sure who else watches this show. 争分夺秒。Something like Internal Affairs huh?

I think it's the kind of unpredictive twists that make me want to watch it.
Makes the whole show very exciting. :P

Sometimes have to work then have to miss the show, but as much as possible, 10pm I will just sit at my sofa and be glued there. hehe

Oh well, have a conference call at 11pm later. Just nice after the show, have to work again.

Life's hard, persevere on!

Hokkaido

Didn't go Hokkaido lah. Siow!

Today did quite a few things.

Early in the morning, went to Tampines Mall to get some eyedrop for my mom. Apparently, there's a "Hokkaido Fair" by Isetan happening there.
We bought quite a number of things from Shop'N'Save at Century Square, and bought some 'squid rice' at the Hokkaido Fair.
The rice was so-so.
Also bought Sapporo Beer from there. The last time when we were holidaying in Japan, we drank some Sapporo Beer somewhere. It was very very smooth. So we tried a little at the fair, taste pretty good. So bought 1 pack of 6 cans. About $17 bucks, I think it's pretty alright.

Then after visiting my father, came back home to do some work.

In the evening, after Karinna went to visit her mom at the EconMedicare, she cooked bee hoon + soup for dinner. Yeah. I have the 爱心晚餐 again! *wink*

But before we have our dinner, we went for a jog. Yes. Healthy lifestyle eh? hehe
Then as usual, she ran until 'up air cannot connect bottom air'. Of course still managed to come back home in one piece lah.

After eating the KB-Style bee hoon, time to do more housechores.

Moral of the story?

Eat 爱心晚餐 got a price to pay one. hahahaha
Just kidding!
