2015 Week 1 weekend (part I)

Yesterday was supposed to go down to City Hall to help brother collect 楊丞琳<雙丞戲>預購專輯. Morning woke up rather late @ 11 am. A bit last minute la, but still ask Bay if he wanted to go out with me or not as I have nothing on for today liao. He asked why need to go down City Hall to collect and not just collect (in other words: order from nearby CD shops). I also don’t know.

Had homecooked yong tau foo with 伊麵 for lunch. After that dilly dally for a while, at about 2.45 pm then I went out to collect the album. Just learned today that some cosmetic manufacturers, out of goodwill, will put a logo (a number overlaps of the cosmetic case) to indicate the 'period after opening' (PAO). Those had this icon had a '12' printed, means must utilise within 12 months after opening. So what the skin79 salesgirl said was correct - the sunblock can be kept for 5 years but once opened must finish using in 1 year. OMG! My cleanser also got that logo. So it doesn't mean that such information only females need to know. Males also good to know ok?!

Citylink 好多店都相繼倒閉換上新店。以前的 Man U 店現在變成女性服裝店!還有就是 Cold Stone Creamery 也倒閉了,取而代之的是 Starbucks……即將在 3 月開張的說。要不是還有一些熟悉’老店’如麥當勞,要不然 Marina Square 也變得我幾乎認不出來了!

然後在 Suntec City 走一圈後回家了——因為不是不想逛街,而是那個超大型相框還有海報很zor deng.

Alighted at JE. Wanted to go Big Box but I waited for the crowd to disperse from the escalator first. Saw HL already went Big Box to get her brownies liao. Fortunately I saw that message, so I went straight home instead. No need to lug those bulky items around.

Came back, went run, first time running almost 5 km after a long long time - can’t remember when was my last time running such long distance liao. 我要瘦下來!

Seow Choon shop at Blk 456 closed down liao?!

Evening la kopi with Bay. He thought the la kopi session was called off because I didn’t reply in the WhatsApp. Oops I was on the line, chatting with PG about those people on Instagram. Grabbed weeatfish phone number and started chatting on WhatsApp. 這個人 hor 真的太可愛太搞笑了,恐怕他只在 channel 5 搞笑而已。

Bay asked why the car got D-3-2-L indication on the gear selector, the car he drives only got D and L. I told him that’s gear 4-3-2-1 lor, 因車而異。Then he replied 因道而已, sounds like '陰道而異’ - 我直接對他無言瞪眼。He just laughed away. MCS?!

He said the pay at the Big 4 increases by $500 which my first instinct tells me is that it's not true. But I literally took his meaning which somehow is my occupational habit, I had to make myself clear during the meeting, because they will also take my meaning literally lor. We two had 2 cheese, 1 kosong and 2 iced milo. $8.50 好貴!而且食物也還好而已,其他的比如服務也是還好而已——有時候還要看他們臉色的。Bay said to research on places to eat. Crazy ah, I already driving to his place to pick him up and then drive to the supper place. He just free ride here and there leh. He SHOULD go research on the places to go! 我還覺得去 McD 都還好過的說。

Toured one round around EMR area to get some nostalgic memories. The place didn’t change much, except that the tent at the entrance is now gone. But the same can’t be said to its surrounding - they have changed quite substantially. Example, now there is a big carpark for heavy vehicles just opposite EMR. And at the junction between Jalan Buroh and Tanjong Kling Road stood a high building - I have no idea what’s that. It wasn’t there last time de. Not to mention a new street called Buroh Street was added. Benoi Road was enlarged, now looks quite big and wide. Keppel office still there lol! 真的變化太大了,比 Marina Square 變化還要大!很可惜現在 reservist 不能回到這些地方做回以前做過的事情。那些可以這麼做的,對我而言算是幸運吧?因為我覺得如果可以的話,應該是很酷的事情喔!但最後的 3 個 high key 可以做這些嗎?好像聽說可以耶。
