Of course, the other baby Casper also there, and Casper was so excited to see Matthew that he made lots of noise, and was like dying to sayang Matthew like that. hehehe. Kinda cute.

So fun so fun, so took some pictures, and ta-dah!!!!!

Tyre

This morning, after dropping Karinna at her office, I went to office for a while before going to a customer site.

Had a new colleague joined us today, so went back basically to issue laptop to him, then let him have some free time to get some logistics stuff done, and continue with familiarising the BW systems we have in office.

Anyway, that was not the point of this blog. ha ha ha

So after handing over the laptop, and a short brief, went back to my car and take a look at the right-back tyre, because when I arrived in the morning, I noticed my car tyre to be quite flat, and I mean pretty flat. Flat until quite pretty. :P

Thus, I decided to double check, and give myself some time to bring to some service centre to get it checked.

I drove to a Shell station as I drive towards HarbourFront. So the car mechanic checked, and told me there's a nail stucked onto the tyre, that's why my tyre became pretty!

Luckily, it can be repaired. Yes. It can be repaired. Basically, he poked the hole bigger, and then he get some rubber that is flexible enough to be pushed into the enlarged hole, and get it pulled out to fill up the hole. A little trimming required at finish touch to make it less ugly. hehe

Ahhh.... and it costs me $10.70, so I am pretty happy with it.
Yes. I am pretty. :P

You're Fired!

Seems like those shows I like to watch are coming back onto the little goggle box.

The current showings of the Apprentice is of Season 6, which had already finished its airings in the US. You can check out here to see who is the eventual winner of that season.

It only started showing last week here, and today was only the second episode.

Kinda funny to watch the swimsuit display, especially the gay guy.
Cannot take it, but I guess Americans have their own special way of thinking, at least some American.

This coming Wednesday, one of my favourite variety shows from local media, 稀游记2.
It's really a very good documentary show, as it is not exactly the normal entertainment shows. The host is still Belinda Lee, still 10 episodes, going to 10 different places looking for Singaporean living in foreign land.

So many shows to watch, not much time, how?

Harvey Norman

Last Monday went to Funan Centre, wanted to buy laptop for a new staff.
Walk around, and went to Harvey Norman as well.

There was some promotion going on, in the end, bought an Acer notebook for the new staff, which came onboard on 01 April.

Today, went to Funan Centre again. Ahhh. Yes. Need to buy more laptops.
Was hoping not to buy the same notebook, but ended up getting the same one.

Acer 6292, with 160GB HDD, 3GB Ram, Windows Vista Business OS.

Today bought 2 more. I think will need to buy another one for myself soon too.
But have to wait a while, I think my credit limit should be reached soon, so probably not enough credit to use my credit card for now.
hehehe.

There were a few gifts that came along with the purpose. One of them is a 4GB thumb drive. Can be very handy, and very large too!

萧煌奇 - 你是我的眼

那一天偶然间观看了一集的“娱乐百分百”,刚好有杨培安, 所以我继续看了。
有另一位特别来宾就是蕭煌奇。

老实说,我没听过蕭煌奇这个人,也没听过他的歌。
在那一集, 他和杨培安都有唱歌。杨培安的歌艺绝对是一级棒。这个蕭煌奇也非等闲之辈!

就是在那里,我听到了这首歌。非常,非常,赞!!!

可是听他们的谈话,这首歌是2002年的,已经不新了。但是,好歌就是好歌,几时听都无所谓!

如果你没听过,听听看吧!



作詞:蕭煌奇
作曲:蕭煌奇

如果我能看得见
就能轻易的分辨白天黑夜
就能准确的在人群中牵住你的手

如果我能看得见
就能驾车带你到处遨游
就能惊喜的从背后给你一个拥抱

如果我能看得见
生命也许完全不同
可能我想要的我喜欢的我爱的
都不一样

眼前的黑不是黑
你说的白是什么白
人们说的天空蓝
是我记忆中那团白云背后的蓝天

我望向你的脸
却只能看见一片虚无
是不是上帝在我眼前遮住了帘
忘了掀开

你是我的眼带我领略四季的变换
你是我的眼带我穿越拥挤的人潮
你是我的眼带我阅读浩瀚的书海
因为你是我的眼
让我看见这世界就在我眼前

眼前的黑不是黑
你说的白是什么白
人们说的天空蓝
是我记忆中那团白云背后的蓝天

我望向你的脸
却只能看见一片虚无
是不是上帝在我眼前遮住了帘
忘了掀开

你是我的眼带我领略四季的变换
你是我的眼带我穿越拥挤的人潮
你是我的眼带我阅读浩瀚的书海
因为你是我的眼
让我看见这世界就在我眼前

你是我的眼带我领略四季的变换
你是我的眼带我穿越拥挤的人潮
你是我的眼带我阅读浩瀚的书海
因为你是我的眼
让我看见这世界就在我眼前

Saturday Fever

Yesterday was a 'busy' day.

Went to office in the morning, as I arranged for my colleagues to be in office to conduct a short training for some newer staff.
Somehow, the response was quite overwhelming, as there were a lot more people who came than I expected. Just that I didn't prepare much for those who were already know the stuff that I was covering.
I felt it was also a good thing, as most of us are usually out at customers' sites, such sharing sessions might be good for building rapport among everyone in the company.
Probably will do more of this in the future. Hopefully.

Then after the stint in office, went to pick Karinna (she also went office to work, we are very hardworking.. hehehe), then drove all the way to Bukit Batok Civil Service Club for practising our Rekki Tummo. Wah. Was damn sleepy siah. Smile until my chin hurts also.
Hope it will revert back to CSC at Serangoon there, at least much nearer. Bukit Batok really too far. Hmmm

So we finished around 6pm, then quickly went back home for dinner, because after dinner, had to drive off to Yishun to attend the wake of a relative. So drove Karinna, and my mother-in-law there. Stayed for for an hour or so, then went back home.

On the way home, stopped over at Giant Tampines. Had to buy rice. Need to be kiasu a bit like the aunties and uncles, stock up rice before it is gone! :D
Now we eat brown rice, left 2 packets of 5kg brown rice that we eat, so we took the 2 packets.
Planting rice is never fun.
Bent from morn till set of sun.
Cannot stand and cannot sit.
Cannot rest a little bit.
*yawn*

Aloha!

Finally, I made the booking for the chalet.

It's been difficult to do booking, as I cannot get any booking for consecutive Fri/Sat or Sat/Sun. Most of them have been booked and gone already.

I decided for Aloha Changi, as it is much more convenient place than Aloha Loyang. In any case, Loyang is much more fully booked, that I cannot even choose an appropriate slot!

So Changi shall it be, then I can go ghost-hunting. :D

I've booked Netheravon Terraces BGL C for 25&26 May, which is Sun/Mon. Immediately after school holiday starts.
Anyway, I can only book 2 months in advance, so have some disadvantages againsts those Civil Services people who have 3 months in advance for booking. That explains why most of the weekends were gone by the time I wanted to book.
Boo hoo hoo!

Having said all above, remember.
Today is 01 April. ;)
