Skinny jeans with frills ?

I'm not sure, but I think everyone would have at least a pair of skinny jeans. Most would have a dozen if I'm not wrong. And that's me. I've 5 pairs in blue, 4 in black, 1 in white, 1 in green & 1 in pink. You just can't go wrong with them. You can dress them down or up, so convenient. However not everything works with jeans.

The other day I was in town & I saw a girl wearing this.Yes they are frills or lace with the skinny jeans. Yes it's pretty weird. I tried taking a pic, but I thought I better try getting one online, for privacy reasons. Found it !

They just don't go together, what you think? My friends couldn't stop laughing when they saw it. People would just wear anything these days I guess! It could be cute on a small kid but an adult ?

Lets all be friends again ..... for my seek !

Last year a couple of my pals decided to start a small business. A cafĂ©, like Toast Box or Ya Kun, only theirs would be selling crepes, waffles and with higher priced coffee at the heartlands. But these joints are sprouting around town right? Many have done it to various degrees of success & failures. My pals are just being bored & a couple of them has been lay-off recently. They have some money, so looking forward to some investment, something to occupy their time.

They ask me to join in the fun. FUN ? Business school don't teach you, but common sense should warn you about never sharing a business with your best pals. When money is concern, even family will fight. I told them my concern & they brush it off. It'll be great they promised me.

Fast forward 8 months, now the 4 partners/friends are not talking to each other anymore! Anything & everything that could go wrong, went wrong with their venture. In the past we would meet together for birthdays etc... one time. Now I've to meet them separately for all their birthdays, my birthday & whatever day. It's getting exhausting.... for ME! This weekend I'm holding an intervention. Our almost 2 decades of friendship should be able to weather anything.... I hope ! Wish me luck.

Lets all be friends again ..... for my seek !

The more you delegate the less you can be blamed for anything!

What do you think of people who never make decisions? As a result these people cannot be held accountable if anything goes wrong. How F--- up is that right? Is like the more you delegate the less you can be blamed for anything! That's almost like a motto in my department lately!

How it got to be this way? I don't know.... The recent series of lay-offs could be one of the reasons. The locals' kiasuism another I guess. Whatever it is, it's not cool & it's driving me nuts!

But not always.... not where I work !!!!

A perfect picture for my new passport :))

Everyone I know hates their passport photos, two thirds of them also hated their IC photos as well. Well I'm one of them, but now that my passport is about to expire, I've decided to take the most flattering, least embarrassing, best groomed, borderline glamor shot I can.

I bought a whitening tooth paste & have been using it for the past week to bleach my teeth.. Got a new haircut, dye it! Invest in an expensive SK11 facial, 2 days before. I even went to a proper studio to take it! My little secret- eye drops just before the shot to make my eyes sparkle!

The photographer though not Steve Mccurry of the "Afghan Girl" fame, is good enough for me as he looks arty ...lol... He fuss over me for a minute, making me feel like Hedi Klum & I go 'weeee......' Snap, snap & it's done!

A perfect picture for my new passport ...Finally !

I love fried food.

Fried chicken, French fries, fried onion rings, And I don't just love fried food, I love the fried part ,all by itself! Who has not nibbled the fry off of something? I love KFC, extra crispy. When I'm in a Japanese restaurant, my favorite is tempura.

You have to agree that frying makes a good thing better. But the truly amazing thing about frying is that it will make even disgusting things better!
Example?
Calamari.
It's a squid for God's sake. Have you seen a squid? If you had , you wouldn't put it in your mouth. But fry it, any sea food dinner would not be complete without it!

Same thing with softshell crabs. A soft shell crab is a crab that has recently molted its shell, so that its exoskeleton is still soft. You wouldn't normally eat a soft exoskeleton, much less all the stuff that's inside a crab, which is whatever he ate last.
Do you think crabs are picky eaters?
I don't think so... So you have to factor that in.
Plus the eyes are still attached.
But fried it?
It became a delicacy! And I love it !
Still looks disgusting , but taste yummy ...lol...

Breakfast @ Botanic Gardens !

A colleague from an overseas branch is in town. So I thought I should bring him around. 2 days ago,  I took half a day off & brought him to Botanic Gardens for breakfast.  He came to Singapore many times already but this is the first time he had breakfast @ Botanic Gardens. He loved it.

He told everyone how awesome it was. Now everyone is asking me to bring them there too ...lol.. Well I told them they have to be male, single, 6ft , full head of curly hair ,big eyes with giraffe like lashes first !

Yummy
