Hip Diner

I just came back from an outing with my cousins. After wondering about on where we are going to have our dinner, we ended up in Cineleisure and found ourselves inside Hip Diner restaurant by Billy Bomers. I order a chicken soup and sausages. The soup is not bad but I cannot say the same to the sausages. I feel they have a kind of taste I dun know how to describe. Any way, I have tasted the German sausages before so I can only say Americans one need to put in more hardwork. Overall, I feel it is ok only. 3 of us ate about $65.

Ratatouille

I just came back from watching Ratatouille. This Pixar movie retains the same standard as the previous Pixar shows. The drawing is a good and some parts are rather funny. But it just dun give me the same good feeling like Finding Nemo and The Incredibles. The story does not have any big climax. The characters just looked like those in The incredibles. But overall, it is still watchable.

Lcd monitor

Whenever a pc show is around the corner, I will tell myself that I will buy a lcd monitor to replace my current crt monitor. But everytime, I will not buy cos I feel my crt is working fine and dun have the heart to replace it. But lately I found my crt monitor a bit crazy. I need to hit it for it to work fine. Hmm.. So will it be really the time for me to change? Haha....

Fireworks

I just came back from the fireworks celebration. I wanted to get a good view but at the same time I dun want to be in the crowd with other people. I am sure that esplanade area sure very crowded. I tot of going to Padang but felt it is far as I wanted to have my dinner in Marina Square area. But I end up having dinner at Millenia Walk as everywhere is crowded!! Lucky for me, after dinner I stumbled upon a piece of open area in between Millenia Walk and Marina Square. It is not crowded and has a very good view of the fireworks! The fireworks is very beautiful! Really different from watching TV. Haha.

Golf

Today I feel a bit bo liao and decided to go attend a golf session. It is just teeing at a driving range off my work place. 120 golf balls for $6 at.I am not experts and so I just play for fun. After a few hits, I am getting really tired. I think I should practice more so I can get the feel of hitting the ball. Haha!

Hot weather

Lately the weather becomes hot again. Now at night I cannot sleep without my air con on and fans full blast at me at the same time! In the afternoon also quite bad when walking for lunch. Only when back in my office I feel normal. Hurray for those who invented aircon.

I walked in and see got any nice things to buy. I found that there are many nice cool things not only for the kids but also for the adults. In the end, I bought a cool gadget. Hoho...

Phuket


I just came back from my short holiday. Over the weekend, I flew to Phuket to relax. I took a Jet Star Asia. Air ticket plus tax cost me around $170 only. I stay at Patong Merlin resort which is a four stars rating which costs about $105 per night for a room. This resort is quite good. Service wise is tip top. I feel almost 90% of the tourists are caucasians and arabians. Out of them, I think a large percentage are old people. I wonder why. Any way, I feel Phuket is quite nice to relax though nothing much to do there. I think I will go again in one of the weekends.

Hard sell

Today I received a phone call from someone trying to promote a dining membership to me which costs $588. After she introduced the privileges of the card, I feel it dun really suit me. I told her I am not really interested. But she dun gives up and trying to tell me it is good. I told her repeatedly that I dun foresee myself using it. But she very insistent and dun intend to hang up. So I use my last ultimate move. I told her I might be interested and wish to see the details. Ask her to email me. Haha! After hearing that, she pretends to take down my email and then hang up. So far I have not received her email. Hoho.
