I have been using my camera to take some pictures recently.
And I would always go through the pictures in the camera. I don't delete them off although I have transferred them already.
Anyway, I'm going to make use of the pictures taken by MY camera only to blog the next few entries. Since I've the time now, maybe my last week, I shall post maybe once every two days.
I have categorize the pictures into Postcard series, Unglam shots, Interesting and Best shots.
Today shall be the postcard series.
Pictures which I feel are quite well taken, that they can be used as a postcard.
The street near IMI
Lake Luzern
Chapel bridge in the evening
The withered tree in Paris
One of my favorite picture of the Eiffel Tower.

I don't usually do much housework at home.
But I'm not spoilt.
I do fold clothes, hang clothes, 'occasional' ironing, praying (not considered as housework) when I'm home especially these few weeks.
Ironing of clothes reminds me of my primary school days. I learnt how to iron clothes when I was in primary school & I even ironed my own uniform.
But there is one thing I remember, a comment said by my classmate.
Can't remember what linked to the topic, but I vaguely recalled that my classmate saying the uniform that I ironed and was wearing was crumpled. I think I ignored her comment. Haha.
But to think of it now, how many kids in primary school know how to iron.
I'm proud of it. Haha.
Anyway, hanging clothes on the bamboo sticks and placing them out of the window is a common sight. But we don't do that at home because there are just too many clothes. Haha.
Carrying the pole out of the window is scary, for the fear that it will just drop down.
I did that at Johnson's place.
I felt so accomplished placing not one but two poles out successfully, and he stays at a high level. Haha.
And yes, I do housework that I don't usually do in my home in his home.
Heading to town tomorrow to meet P-Group whom I have not met in close to 4 months.
To add on, in order to clarify that Xiao Grey is grey, here's a comparison.

Having been meeting the guys for 2 consecutive weeks.
Both for birthdays.
Both on Fridays.
And on both, the same person drank the King's cup.
Huatness. Haha.
Taken at Lunar on the first Friday.
If you replace the person in spectacles with another one, that was the attendance for the second Friday.
My sister has a pair of itchy hands.
When I'm not around, she walks to my table, grabs a marker and scribbles on whatever that is available to her.
Yesterday, she did this.
A month ago she did this.
I specially took one calender that is the original to have a better contrast.
Spot it?
She outlines the pictures with so much patience going into the details.
She drew the 'dots' on the head of the monks, add bubbles to the thoughts of the monks in the above picture and belly buttons for the 2 below.
Awwwwww. How cute....

I'm starting to feel bored.
Seems like there isn't much shows to watch. And I'm waiting for new episodes to be uploaded weekly.
I'm watching 3 k-variety shows, 2 k-dramas, 1 TW drama, 2 U.S. reality tv shows, 3 U.S. shows.
Johnson is working from 0700 to 1930 everyday till his off day on Friday. =(
And I'm too lazy to go out.
I have like 2 weeks left to start work. Feel like starting sooner, but Johnson said wait till work commerce, I will regret. Haha. Maybe, I guess.
Though for some reason, I hope that will be delayed for 1 week, I have a feeling that they will start as mentioned. We shall see.
Maybe I should take a picture of Xiao Lan and Xiao Grey together to show the difference in the colour. But if I do so, this page will be filled with pictures of Meh Mehs.
Anyway, I have been having trouble sleeping.
Maybe not trouble, I take a much longer time to fall asleep and for some reason at 4am I will be half awake, then turning in again. Heh.
I can't sleep with a fluffy pillow on my head. Only a flat pillow or no pillow works. And it's rather weird that I can't sleep with the Meh Mehs in my arms recently, I have to put them aside. =(
Perhaps a few people know, Johnson falls asleep in like less than a minute. A minute is considered long, perhaps I give him 30 seconds. Seriously, I'm not kidding.
My sister too, falls asleep fast. In maybe 2 to 5 minutes.
It's not that I am so free to calculate how fast a person falls asleep, but it's simply because I am still awake.

Oh....
It's one year already. =)
No special planning, just simple like usual. Just like us.
I've been meeting Johnson like on Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and today, Wednesday.
Headed to swim today at Serangoon, and the swimming complex only has one pool.
Only one. Heh. But it's clean. Cleaner than Tampines.
Anyway, having to travel out this few days enabled me to compile a list that irks me when I'm outside.
The list:
- People just don't know how to keep left on escalators, especially in the mrt stations. And when you say excuse they give you the 'tsk' face. But I don't care about the 'tsk', because they just can't read signs.
- People who yak yak yak in mrt and buses. I have met them on the bus yesterday and the train on Monday. It's as though they want everyone to know about their life. Simply, irritating.
- People who walks slow or occupy the center of the walkway that keeps me from walking at a constant speed.
- People who don't know how to give their seats up and those who for some reason in a crowded train choose to sit down when they are getting down at the next stop.
- Sleepers. Haha. Especially in trains, where the space is so constraint, and you are just so sway that the person beside you is sleeping. To make things worse, the person just won't sleep still. To the left, to the right, to the left, to the left, and you are sitting on his left. Haha.
- People with no backbone and likes leaning on the pole used for gripping on trains, because there's ain't no space to grip for support.
I guess the list goes on, but these are the few that I seriously dislike.
And one of the weirdest thing I came across was when I'm sitting down in the train and this auntie standing just randomly said, 'can I sit there?'
The seat she is referring is the little space left between me and this other passenger. I was like what kind of stupid request it is. And before anyone one of us can answer her stun question, she just tries to squeeze her fat ass. Haha. So both of us stood up to let her to let her ass sit and I just kept looking at her in disgust.

Was at Lunar on Friday night to celebrate Sam's belated birthday and Rong's upcoming birthday.
We were in rush to avoid the $20 cover charge with 10 mins from the mrt station to Lunar. Haha. But we made it.
Lunar has live performance with mainly Mandarin songs so it was good.
Sam taught us a new game. Circle of Death.
Each card has its own definition and I shall not explain it. But the main thing is that the loser has to drink the self made concoction.
Ingredients purchased were Hello Panda, Dried Mango, Soya Bean and Yakult.
So, at the end of the game the drink was made up with Hello Panda, Dried Mango, Soya Bean and Chivas.
The Dried Mango I ate was eeewwww already, imagine the Hello Panda that was soaked throughout the game. Haha.
Anyway, I guess I drank quite alot man. Not drunk but a little high. =p
Plus,it was FUN!!! Haha.
I'm bored staying at home but I'm lazy to go out unless I'm meeting Johnson.
I've been sleeping like 12 hours daily.
Maybe I will have to work at Braddell soon since by Boss is back like today or tomorrow.
So hopefully I will be called back to work and earn $$$!!

Yesterday was 'where Johnson want to go day I go'. Haha.
Because it was his belated birthday as he was working from 1000 to 2230 on his birthday. Heh.
Wanted to swim in the morning but the weather was not good.
But it turns out that the weather was like that throughout the day.
Gloomy.
Nonetheless, we headed for lunch and off to Science Center. Haha.
For the Body Worlds exhibition, which was a bit interesting but gets kind of dry towards the middle. We caught a show at the Omni Theater too. It's huge with the screen like half of a globe. The show was educational but gets dizzy for both of us. Haha.
My dear Xiao Lan & Xiao Bai were placed respectively in the washing machine by my mum.
To shower them since they don't look as good as they were bought.
It turns out that they CAN be placed in the washing machine!! Haha.
Both came out as good as new!
Spot anything??
Awwww. It's Xiao Bai with the ears and hands pegged onto a hanger for the drying process.

Made myself useful today.
Ironed the clothes and most importantly, I took away the desktop on my study table.
It takes up like 1/3 of my study table and the main thing is that I don't use it.
Usually if I try to switch it on it will have the error sound, surprisingly, after I took off all the wires and re-connect it back in the living room, it worked. Heh.
But anyway, my table looks neater now! Haha.
We have a new addition to the family.
Bought yesterday, this is Xiao Grey!

I said that Saturday was my last day of work, but in fact, I was at work yesterday and today.
From tomorrow, it's rest day.
Because my boss is going China for 10 days.
Anyway, I headed down to Jurong on Monday to get my laptop fixed.
Thankfully, I was the 12th in the queue as I was there at 0900 and it opens at 0845.
But I had to hang around the area because my laptop will only be ready at 1400. Heh.
I spent the first 3 hours at the library reading a book.
The remaining time meeting Anna for lunch and back to the service center.
I have a new hard-disk for my laptop. Haha. FREE!!!!
Weather has been bad recently ya?
Rain rain rain.
Despite the use of an umbrella, I will still get wet.
And now, my shoes get wet too. Inside out.
