千八百五十五: Smatsby

ahahah !
Smatsby: spoof of the gatsby ad in SMAPXSMAP - the man keeps saying how come only his face changed to Kimura's face but voice didn't change. "Whats the point!? "



For the original ad -


the guy at the end says "even if it's a lie I'm happy." hahaha !

千八百五十四: Singapore

It's been a good week so far, I think i've been overeating again..

There is the fear of falling off the bed accidentally, and my back still hurts from the accident. I wanted to do more work this weekend, but the environment was down so I didn't have to feel guilty that I had time to play my DS. good progress in the game; unlocked 4 treasure map pieces over the weekend. It's so difficult because it's random for everyone, and they give you mini map pieces that could be from any where on the DQ world map & u have to figure out where that little bit of forest is from.

Did you know that you're not allowed to smoke while walking in some areas of Japan?

Sign on the roads at Ebisu (under Shibuya ward)

You are only allowed to smoke at the smoking areas, which makes it a relief for nonsmokers to walk in smoke free air. The main reason was to prevent kids from getting the 2nd hand smoke, and also, kids just at the height of the hand might get cigerette ash dropped on their heads if the smoker didn't realise that the kid was walking below their arm/cigerette height level. So the law is really to protect kids, which makes it hard for smokers to complain and say why protect the non-smokers :)

Had a good weekend so far, relaxing day yesterday at ECP just doing my own stuff while waiting for J to finish running. the only problem was that I couldn't go to the loo in the 2 hours of waiting . hehe .. luckily I didn't drink that much water. then had dinner at Old Airport Road, had a feast of Bak Kut Teh, Char Kway Teow, Rojak, prawn noodles & sugar Cane juice.

千八百五十三: Tokyo

was relieved to be home finally after a long week away.
But.. I'm back in SG this week until 28th Nov for work.

Was called back last minute last friday because one of the leads had to go back to his home country on a family emergency. :) Happy !!

managed to eat curry fish head for dinner last night, think mom will cook my fav salted veg duck soup this sunday.

tiring.. it was an ok flight yesterday, the airline helped me block the seat to empty out next to mine, most of the flight attendantss were courteous & helpful. I'll miss being a Star alliance gold member!!! hopefully more trips this year like this time so that i can try for gold again :S last chance to use the lounge this month!!

watched time traveler's wife on the plane.. cried buckets. kind of embarrassing, before that i was watching Ugly truth and laughing aloud. Rachel McAdams, her movies always make me cry!! like.. the notebook/ nicholas sparks stuff. (T.T) even the 2nd time i watched the ending i starting sobbing again. :(

back in office now, good to meet up with everyone again!

千八百五十二: 日向岬

Hyuga Misaki :


very very grand view of the pacific ocean. the noise from the waves is really loud, but the cry of the eagle can be heard over everything. Very scary that eagle, it came so close to our heads that i was kinda screaming and crouching in fear.

i bought a new hoodie jacket! it's so colourful, very comfortable too :) took a photo with the Miyazaki Mayor Moai Statue in the new jacket :
