take-u-away

The “eng” is “Nothing-to-do” in Hokkien. Well, i’m doing my in-camp training this week, and i’m just backed home cos tmr is weekend. Haha, good. I previously thought my weekends will be burnt.

Nevertheless, this in-camp is really damn eng, haha. Nothing much to do, only spent the mornings doing a bit of outfield training for a while then the rest of the day is  free. Cos they are focusing on the other group of people. Luckily i brought some story books to read, if not, i think i’ll die of boredom. :p Wish all my coming icts will be like this, haha.

I finished 2 books in this week! Harry Potter’s “Half-Blood Prince” and “Tuesday with Morrie”. Oh shit, now i can’t wait to get my hands on the last Harry Potter book, so addictive! I’m suspecting if Dumbledore will be alive again, cos there must be some reason he’s so trusting of Snape. I was thinking if his death is planned, and there must be some trick to it. Somemore, harry said he wont be going back to Hogwart’s, so what will be the outcome. Gosh! I want the next book before i go back for my in-camp on Monday!!!!!

Oh well, i’m backed home for nights off, having spent 3 days in camp. In fact, this 3 days i spent was really just wasting my time. Nothing much to do, spent the whole few afternoons doing nothing. Cos the focus of this ict is not on the role i’m playing, but to others doing the conversion course. Sianz….. lucky i brought along the Harry Potter book no 6 i bought last sunday, so that at least i got something to do - reading lor…

Still got lots of work to clear, but since i cant bring my laptop to camp, i gotta wait till i out-pro….

See the 2 stupid ultra big bags on top? I’m going for a stupid reservist in-camp training on the 25th this month, which is like 6 hours from now.

What’s so wrong about in-camp? especially a 2 week one? You need to bring so many things…. die die must take cab, but the cab cant even go directly to ur bunk, and u gotta walk a super long distance in. Idiot! WHY MUST SAF ASK STUDENTS GO FOR IN-CAMP? if working adults still got car, not much worry about bringing lots of stuff. I am only a poor student… You know why? Cos for students, SAF dun need to top up ur pay. They just give u the lousy miserable nsf pay and thats it.  Save money hor….

To be a singapore citizen, u better be rich, not even middle class. If you are rich, you can easily tahan all the increases, got car, in-camp also nevermind. If you are damn poor or maybe handicapped, then the others will try to help u, though it is still quite limited. If you are in the middle. Hoh! Hor say liao, you are the one being squeezed dry.

Ok, enuf of all these talk, i gonna go sleep le, need to wake up at 6am tmr to go the bloody shit camp. 2 weeks of hi-key training to go!

Tian Tian Lai Char Kway Teow

Overall Rating :

This is the char kway teow stall just beside the “Tian Tian Dao Hokkien Mee” i mentioned last week. And btw, they are not related, they just happen to have similar names…

In fact, these 2 are my favourite stalls in that hawker centre ( Blk 453A Ang Mo Kio Ave 10). I like this Char Kway Teow stall because it really taste good and better than any other average char kway teow. I wont say it’s the best, but it’s definitely above average.

Secret Recipe Irish Lamb Stew

Overall Rating :

This is got to be one of the best western meal I’d ever had - Irish Lamb Stew from Secret Recipe.

I had my lunch at the Secret Recipe at Vivocity that day before going
for a movie. The service is great and the food is good. Though too bad
that they don’t offer FOC ice water anymore.

One wholesome piece of lamb rib slow cooked with the unique Irish sauce
really makes my meal more delightful. It comes with whipped potato and
a bun. Oh, and there’s carrots in the stew sauce.

I really love the stew sauce. Read more here….

Yes! Asian Cafe (AMK Hub)

Overall Rating :

The idea of having rice balls really tempted me to try out this shop
outside AMK Hub. At least you couldn’t really find it just around
anywhere in Singapore.

It’s labelled “Yes! Asian Cafe.

It’s a small cafe with only around 10 tables, but they do have a lot of
items on their menu. From toasts to western food to their unique rice
balls.

When i was deciding what to drink, the counter staff recommends me
their speciality yes! coffee. Alright, it tastes better than normal
kopitiam coffee, but i dun think it’s from expresso or anything high
class. One glass like this cost $2.50, a bit ex!

They have 3 flavours of rice ball, namely Thai pineapple rice, chicken
rice and teriyaki rice. One plate of 3 balls cost $2.90. You can choose
only one kind or their combo.

While searching the web at random, i came across something very nolstagic - Street Fighters!

Oh my! It’s something i’d always like to play during my primary school days.  Now, it’s available for free playing online at http://www.streetfighteronline.com. You can also download it and play, cos the online version really loads very long.

And btw, it’s more like Marvel vs Capcom, even though it’s direct name is Street Fighters. Got X-men characters inside!

But i don’t really like it, cos i always lose…… sianz :p

Xiao hei is getting spoilt! I didnt and dont want to feed it everyday, cos i want it to be able to find its own food.She’s a cat after all, and cats are supposed to be good hunters. And i always purposely give it very little, not enough even for a day’s meal, so that it would go look for other food.

That day, after i fed it once, it kept pestering me for more, and almost bit me. Well, i confess that’s because i teased her a bit

These days, it keep waiting at my doorstep wanting me to feed her. Nah! I only give treats to independent cats which can find their own food. So sorry!

But, i’d say Xiao Hei is really very cute!
