My Singapore Observation…

…is that when you are travelling by the MRT, which is the underground rail system here, no one really pushes to be the first one in, no one elbows you out, or breathes down your neck. And no one actually looks at you making it obvious that he/she is waiting for you to alight so [...]

Singapore Diary, Page Four

Woke up rather early today which is a little miracle in itself. I had gone to bed around 4 am last night and had woken up once to say bye to poor D who was leaving for work at 8 am. Got back to the bed after that, claimed all of it and all the [...]

Singapore Diary Page Three

On Day three, that is today, we moved from that bed and breakfast place to this Five Star luxury called Royal Plaza on Scotts. I hated it, honestly. The woman at the reception was terrible and people were looking at us strangely because we were not wearing the designer wear that they did and carried [...]

Singapore Diary, Page Two

Woke up reasonably early the next morning to have the complimentary breakfast at the hotel. Then went back to sleep and woke up later to smoke at the terrace. Found it was raining so went out with umbrellas and went straight to the Harbourfront to get to Sentosa Island. Spent close to fifty fucking dollars [...]

Singapore Diary, Page One

Am in Singapore now. Everything is fine, except that my laptop does not run unless I remove the battery and discharge static electricity entirely before using the power adaptor. I landed here with a cramp in my stomach that I’ll remember for some time. Bless Tiger Airways that got us here cheap but [...]

Being the Wife, the Real Sort

I have utensils to wash from two days before. Enough said.
Worse, D is working on a report and won’t be home before 2 in the morning. Which leaves me with a shit load of work. That coupled with the fact that there was no water in the house all day and the fact that I [...]

China is So Disgusting !!

And this is their latest gem:
Yang Peiyi, the 7 year old Chinese girl with the perfect voice, was chosen to perform the Chinese National Anthem “Hymn to the Motherland” at the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, but because of Peiyi’s unattractive buck teeth, another (prettier) girl, 9 year old Lin Miaoke, went [...]

Babies? No thanks !!

I am trying to justify that having five cigarettes to make up for a missed breakfast is a kickass way to begin the day. And you are to agree with me, ok? Ok.
Oh, and for the record, I am not going to have children, by choice. I am getting a tiny bit tired of people [...]

Updates

Woke up really early in the morning at 9 today and was fiddling with the blog widgets and themes. And guess what, my blog stats counter got inexplicably reset to 1 from 8200+. And I can’t do a thing about it. This is so frustrating !!

And to top it, there’s so much more to be [...]

The Latest in our lives is…

…a brand new camera, dearies. It is this:

You see that little L in the corner. That’s the sign for Leica, the lens. Neat, huh?

This is the pretty backside. There’s a hotkey for setting the exposure.

And here’s the top with a little hotkey for setting e-zoom. Cool? I know
Honestly it packs in more than ‘em all. [...]
