House warming

Today I went to my uncle house for house warming party. Though his house is not difficult to find, the parking is a killer. The road is narrow and lack of parking places. Lucky I went there early and manage to snatch a spot. He invited people to perform a lion dance and we had buffet for dinner. The surprising part is everyone went home before 8.30pm. Boring.

Salvatore Ferragamo

Today I got my items I bought online. It is a a pair of sneakers by Salvatore Ferragamo. Actually due to my previous experience with RLX, I am quite worried that my money goes down the drain again. But surprising the size fits me very well and material use quite good. Everything is so nice! Really. Those made in Italy stuff really worth the money.

Spring to riverside

Today my sister gave us a treat at Wah Lok Restaurant at Carlton Hotel. We ordered a dunno how many dish package. During the 2nd dish, my sister is sharp enough to spot that it is not meant for our table. After a slight commotion, the issue is settled and our correct dishes are served.

Then, we walked over to the once a year event, Spring to the Riverside at Marina. This year a bit different is that it is located in a middle of nowhere and not beside the usual Singapore river. I took a lot of photos and guess what? My SD card suddenly goes crazy and all things in it are gone!! @#$%& Sob!!! Any way, overall I feel like less thing compared to last year and more like a funfair to me.

A'famosa

I just came back from my Chinese New Year holiday. This year I went to Malacca. I stayed at A'famosa resort. The resort is quite big but the interest spots are all too far away and not within walking distance. In addition, we spent quite a lot of time on the road. So basically no need to do things. The villa we stayed is quite ok. The only good thing is the fireworks we had in another place. This is the first time I have fireworks up close and personal. Overall, this trip is o minus the travelling part.

RLX

I just received my item I bought online. I eagerly opened up the package and first reaction is disappointed. The material to the casing to the quality are screaming "LOW CLASS"! So much for a branded goods! I am really not satisfied with the item. High class price but low class material. Overall, this makes me steer this brand from now on. But what to do? Online shopping has this type of risk.

COE analysis February 2nd round

This round COE changed crazily! Cat A down $6,289 to give $5,200 and Cat B slides $6,150 to give S$6,002. Insiders expressed shocked. Many feel that maybe it is due to the short duration from the last bidding and also lately of chinese new year. Many has no time to buy cars. Some dealers even feel that due to the rising property, people invested their money into housing instead. One also explained that some does not know the date of the new bidding. Whatever the case is, it dropped to $5k region which I always feel it will hit. Finally, it has arrived, But dun be too happy cos it will not for long. I think many people will rush in and COE price will rebound and up above $10k as dealers loses too much money this round. Haha!

Branded goods

Lately I went online to shop for some branded goods. I found that some designs are really nice and usually cheaper (according to my friend) than those sold in Singapore stores if there happened to be on sale. Well, I seldom venture into those high end stores in Singapore. So online stores give me a chance to browse through these goods with least effort. But the risk is maybe size not suitable or colour not as nice as you see on the website. Well, you win some, you lose some. Haha!

COE analysis February 1st round

This round COE has no much of a changes. Cat A is $11,489 and Cat B is $12,152. Unless something happen, I think COE price should be quite steady.

Cold

Recently, I feel that the weather in Singapore is very chilling! My room temperature is always around 26 degrees C. Even in the day, I dun feel warm under the sun. I wonder is this normal as now is already February. But my brother said it is like that when we were young (I dun recall) and now it is just "back to normal". Any way, not only me, many of my friends also felt the weather is a bit nuts. However, the good news is I can bring out all my long sleeves t-shirt (which I have not touch in years) to wear!!!
