Tiger Power  

Posted by Ai Shiang in


Are you in the mood for Chinese New Year already? Is red your colour? Are firecrackers still legal these days? It used to be that time of the year again when I dug in for my favorite soft drink and lots of bak kwa a.k.a long yoke, until I lost my voice. Of course not forgetting collecting ang-pows. That was then, what about now?

My friends are telling me that they spend excessively during the festive season. It has become retailers sales boosting period rather. A friend in Singapore, she would get away and travel the world every Chinese New Year just to skip the hassle of CNY. Would you do that too?

Wish you all a very happy tiger power Chinese New Year, 新年快樂.

Noisy Neighbour  

Posted by Ai Shiang in

Our neighbors, either in the same complex or those terrace houses across the street were usually very quiet. Not this evening, one of the neighbors across the street was having some sort of party. None stop very loud music and people yelling, they're probably drunk.

I wish they could be a bit quieter so that I could do my work and enjoy a night watching Federer played some tennis. After 60 minutes of loud music I was starting to get irritated. I couldn't even hear what I was watching on the tele. 3 hours later, the music was still going strong and I really wanted to puke. Almost midnight, 3 policemen came and got them to switch off the music. Thank goodness! Somebody must have called the police. These partying people are really brainless!.

The photo above was taken at the harbour during a quiet breezy evening stroll. This cafe is called The BlackBird Cafe. I keep seeing the word "blackbird" recently and wonder what it really is.

Soap Porn

A friend wrote me an email asking why haven't I updated my blog for a while. I've been busy with my trade activities, been watching Australian Tennis Open, lack of sleep, drained, somehow somewhere in between I'm still feeling very happy. I promised my friend that I'd post some soap pictures and there you go, enjoy:

These soaps were made weeks or at least 2 months ago. They are all for our own use.

Pic #1 - they're scented with honeydew melon. Delicious but not edible.
Pic #2 - they were supposed to look like zebras but turned out looking like morse code instead!
Pic #3 - these ugly things are the results of me making them half asleep. They might look ugly but still feel very luxurious on the skin. I've included plenty of different clays in them - feel like in a spa!
