My Thoughts on Animals
Your relationship with your pet or preferences for certain animals does not make you an animal lover. You naturally love your pet, or by extension love all cats for example, which would make you a cat lover. But I’m not convinced by anyone who say they are an animal lover if they eat meat. It’s saying I love animals but I prefer some of them dead. That doesn’t make sense.

Did I sleep post?
Creepy, I didn’t post my previous entry so where the hell did that come from?
I googled for the quote and my blog turn up as the first result. Curioser & Curioser.
Did I forgot to log out from somewhere?…. *password reset*
Anyway, a personal update.
I’ve lost my appetite for about 8-9 weeks now. You cannot imagine how miserable it makes one feel, especially when one...

Pamela: Can you photoshop the fence away?
Me: Ok, done.
Pamela: Yay, oh but this picture has the wheel, can I send you another picture without the wheel?
Me: I can always photoshop the wheel away.
Pamela: Really?
Name has been changed to save him/her some dignity. Or it could be reverse psychology. Maybe, maybe not.

Heart the Heartlands
In Singapore, “Heartlanders” (as opposed to “Cosmopolitans”) was a term popularised in 1999 by then-Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong, to characterise the majority of the Singapore population that is generally poorer, less educated, either working class or lower-middle class, speaks a distinct variety of English (Singlish), lives in HDB housing estates, and has a local...

Christmas Gifting Tips
Ok just one suggestion. I don’t really subscribe to gifting tips because you should know more about the person you’re buying a present for. What can a writer from an Ad/Sponsor-Driven publication possibly know that you don’t.
BUT I guarantee that any book lover will love the Kindle, even those who fervently swears by the good old musky paperbacks because “they just feel...
2011 Overview
There are amazing years and there are blah years. 2011 was certainly one of the better years, like 1997, 1999, 2004, 2005, 2007, 2009…I’m actually reviewing my life by the years. There’ll come a time when I’ll start reviewing my life by the decades. Dare I blink?
Found an interesting article on time. This particular point is rather depressing.

L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon
Oh I was a little too optimistic about getting the iPhone 4S. I didn’t realize it was so popular, one day they are available, the next day they are gone. It’s fine, Siri is not exactly teleport. A want, not a need.
Anyway, husband and I went to L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon for my birthday. To be honest, my first impression of Robuchon wasn’t good. The family made a booking...
Mobile Snaps
Probably the last series of snaps from my iPhone 3GS. Getting my birthday present, the 4S later today!
Last picture is a present from my friend. I don’t have the ego to call myself a “Pwincess”, in case you’re wondering.

Holiday Plans.
ddenyse:
… are starting to take shape ! We have managed to secure ourselves a stay at Hakone Ginyu Ryokan and I can just imagine warming up in the private outdoor onsen on a cold winter’s night, surrounded by a blanket of snow glistening under the moonlight.
Happening in December! I will do my New Year’s Resolution then.

Salt at Ion
Birthday Celebration Part 3: Lunch at Salt with Husband and Mother-in-law.
I made a mental note to visit Salt when I read about the opening. It’s a good experience, great view for sure, the journey to the 55th floor of Ion leads you through an art gallery, I wouldn’t know about it otherwise.
The food was alright, oysters were Delightful with a capital D but nothing else really stood...

Birthday Celebrations
Part I: Dinner with the family. My favorite bunch of people in the world. My Dad gave me this, birthday wishes on a crab shell tossed away by a previous customer. Hallmark, you can suck on that.
Part II: Brunch at Hummerston’s with my good friends. Paul (4th) and Aileen (7th) attended almost all my Birthday Parties in my 20s. I fondly remember celebrating Paul’s birthday when he...
Fifi Chloe Daydreaming
Waited ages for a Fifi Print. When prints are available again, I saw Fifi wearing Chloe 70s inspired mini dress and just had to get it. Numbered 17/100.
On Steve Jobs as a Designer
Bill Gates is my Hero but as a Designer, you can’t help but be in awe of Steve Job’s ability to create a perfect marriage between Technology and Design. Aesthetics in Technology, before Steve Jobs, was nothing to speak of. He showed us how whole industries can be reinvented by rethinking design alone. Apple is not always on the edge of technology, but its revolutionary user interfaces...
To the Sound of the Speaker
Burn it all down // Wanna buy another round // Gonna light up in the sound, of the speaker.
Let’s see. There was Bronson’s farewell, where we sent him off to Cambridge. And we crashed into Irene’s Hen Party. Though from this picture, it is quite evident who is the crasher. Bro, I’m looking at you. The party carried on at SOUL.
We had supper/breakfast at 5 am, felt...
