Shape Run 2008..Have you sign up??

For once,i decided not to work on a saturday.But i did not sleep till late either.I wake up at about 830am and i left the house at about 1030am.Took a train and i ended up in wisma atria.You must be wondering what am i doing in orchard at such a early hours...guess only crazy runner esp woman will know what is happening in orchard that saturday..

I think its only 1130am and the booth was not really open but i saw ladies already standing around and start registered for the run..of coz,the KS me oso eager to be part of them.And the interesting thing is if you sign up during their launch,you gets extra goodies from them.That why i did not sign up via internet this year..haha..

I pay S$40/- for the run plus 6-mth of subscription of Shape mag.Actually the run cost S$30/- so the rest of S$10 is for the 6 mth of shape mag which i think it super worthwhile lor...even though i muz say the cost for the run had increase by S$5/- compare to last year..let hope the goodies for this year is good stuff man...Suppose to have a health screening at 2pm if you signed up during the launch but i feel abit cheated by it bcos it actually only a BMI measurment...sigh...wasting my time lor...

But by then,the crowd is getting huge and the queue had form a S shape along the walkway...

Below are some pic contributed by DD..

Had filled up all my details and making payment..had to be cash cos nets is not working on that day...luckily DD got enuff cash to spare me...

This year their tees is in green colour,last year is orange,wonder what colour will be next year...red??...then will become traffic light liao...haha

This pic took at 12pm...and surprisingly there is no crowd yet...

This pic took at 1pm after my lunch and look at the crowd behind me...they are all shape runners..and some of them filled more than 3 copies of forms lor...XBKS ar....

nibble..nibble..woo..its itchy..

How many of you heard about fish spa?This my 1st time heard of it and i think there is only 1 outlet in singapore currently.Situated in chinatown one of the HDB flat.I decided to try it out on one of a free sat noon after my work.I used to remember to bring along the location address whenever i visit the place for the 1st time but this time i simply wasn't prepared and poor DD was just following round and round the blk until the IC call me and finally we found the place..

I luv the place and it reflect warm and friendly and simple design too.I saw a man sitting infront of cash register and smile broadly to me...so friendly lor..

Being a new birdie, i just dunno what to do.DD sit at the waiting area and watch the nerd nerd me..haha...

Finally,i am ready to be "feed" by the fish in the pool..My heart is racing furiously..slowly i let down my feet into the water and GOSH!!!man the fish attack me with no mercy...they cover whole of my feet completely..a few shot of fotos by DD who was amazed too..

That is my foot and those are the nibble action i talking about...itchy itchy..

I'm smiling at camera not bcos i am happy but it just ultimately itchy...buay Tahan ar!!

This is where the feeding area is..i'm in the smallest pool where it can cater up to about 8-10pax.And the big one behind me can up to 16 pax...isn' t it look like to jacuzzi pool to you..haha..The duration of feeding time is 15 mins

I opt for the package which include classic pedicure too but i think her skill is not as good as those i went before...she had missed out alot of step though...i tell myself that i will only come for the nibble in future..

Waiting for the nail to dry up and the wind is just so weak...Deng! Deng! Deng!

ok i think you muz be wandering where is such place located baz...Thats it!picture below shall reveal your curousity..
Give you a clue - the painting of the HBD flat look like Ikea Bldg..

No Regret To Show...it lift up my tiring day

This is a sudden decision made by DD.He mentioned to me one fine day if i am keen to watch "The soldier & his virtuous wife".Though i have been wanting to watch this show too,i am very happy that he voice it out.But i think the show might be ending soon or maybe the response is damn good..only limited dates and seat left.Therefore,we choose a weekday which is thursday,8pm and it was already 3 floor from the stage.But my sweet DD got bring bino for me though again i wanted to ask him so but i know that bino was super heavy...

That day was also a busy day for me.I am so frightened that either i am going to be late for the show or worst still, i cannot make it.Luckily i still able to make it but i had made DD waiting for me for ages..and he never complain.i am so touched..We had a quick dinner and head to national library in a constant but fast pace.

The whole show last for about 1H45MIN with no interval.We decided to visit the loo a visit..haha..show start sharply and we enjoyed it very much.We laughed with our heart out with the way they talk and their expression too.Some of the songs they sing seem so ding dong that you wouldn't help to wonder whether is there such song exist anot..and you know what...DD is whispering one of their particular song constantly lor which make me laugh so hard..

Below are some pic which we took with some of the actors & actress aft the show ended...

Mei-PO and me...but i don't need one cos i already found someone...

They are the soldier & his virtuous wife...so cute right...

The man is the virtuous wife's hubby and the lady is the soldier's mummy...aren't they so compatible??

WanTon Mee Competition

After watching a documentary show about $2.00 waton mee on one of the friday evening,DD and I decided to visit the market called ABC hawker centre somewhere near Ikea.

On a wetty saturday,we took a bus from Jurong east and rock our way to the destination.The journey is dam long lor..i was abit regret to take a bus..should take mrt to queenstown and trf a bus..i think should be abit faster..

Anyway,when we reach the hawker centre,the crowd wasn't as bad as weekday lunchtime.We decided to check it out every stall before we decided what to eat even though we came here with a motive.

Ha..in the end,i still choose to try out the waton-mee as show on the TV and DD choose to try out his long-lost chinese prata. Actually there is 2 stall selling the same prices and they are 2 stalls away somemore...very competitive lor..

After much thought,i gave the above a try 1st.This stall is mend by 2 lady in their mid-50s baz..seeing them still working so hard at this age,i decided to supprt them..These 2 aunties are very friendly.I like them lor..As the queue wasn't very long,i got my wan-ton mee quite fast.

DD came back with his prata and i muz say it was very mini lor.I don't think these are enuff for DD..HeeHee true enough...DD seduced me for another plate of wanton mee but this time let try the other stall say in 50s..I agreed cos i wanna to try too since we had already make our trip here and i also don't want DD to go hungry..Below is the 2nd stall we had try..

After eating the 2 stall of wan-ton mee,i muz say the 1st stall we had is much more nicer than the 2nd one even though the portion is just nice for both stall.The mee and the sauce from the 1st stall no horse run ar. But sad to say,somehow the 2nd stall has more customer than the 1st stall.DD says it may be due to the name of the stall that says 50s baz...

I hope the next time when i visit the market again,the 1st stall of wan-ton mee is still around and the most important thing is it muz be still S$2/- per plate..haha

So happy for our loved ones

Last night DD break a very stunning and happy news to me.Our common friendz will be ROM-ing in June this year.I am so happy for her.

She is actually my TWSS school mate but we never talk to each other during our school days till we met at the gym.I still remember we saw each other the 1st time at FES planet fitness.At that time i am so happy to see someone familiar and then i got to know that she does attend step class on sunday too.

She is DD's sis's frendz.Coincidently they both study in the same uni wor...also consider same school mate too.And DD ever mention that she is the one brought him to gym and step class was introduced by her too and now DD enjoy this class so much.

HeeHee...she had also create the opportunity for both of us too...else we will never be together just like today.Shortly after we become an item,DD told me that she found someone too.I alwae hope to have a double date as i think it should be fun but i guess this day will never come..

Recently,we had attended our common friend's wedding at sheraton hotel.At our table,we have a total of 4 pair of couple included me.Out of curiousity,i ask DD to make a guess as who will be the next one...well,never know DD is so smart coz he guess it correctly or he knew it all along...hhmmm...

Never the less,i sincerely wish them happily and forever together...wonder will trekking be part of their HM trip lei....hahaha

Service suck spoil the quality of food

This incident happen on monday.I was so angry that i wanted to complain on blog but never had the time to do so...hehe..wonder what am I busy at..guess work has been drained my energy...

A monday morning, i craving for ben kueh, ku cai kueh and shun kueh. Taking my usual path to work,i head to amoy market to cure my crave.Location at 2nd floor of the food centre,2 ladies were preparing the dian xin and there is 1 customer infront of me.When it is my turn,here is our conversation.

Auntie:what do you want?(back facing me while asking)

Me:1 ben kueh & 1 shun kueh

Auntie:(repeat but this time she is looking at me) What do u want?

Me: repeating my order again

Auntie:no shun kueh

Me:issit those are shun kueh?(hot from the steamer)

Auntie:those are not really to sell yet..

Me: ok then,i want ben kueh & gu cai kueh la,

Auntie:want chilli?

Me: No thanks.(reply while digging my purse for payment)

I think she must have notice that i am holding dollar notes on my hand,she asked if i had 60 cts.I told her sorry i do not have.Not sure is it i speak too soft or she is not paying attention,she repeated herself again and of course i had to repeat myself lor..

I conclude that she is not paying attention to her customer lor cos she put chilli on my order lor..

Me:auntie,i say i dun wan chilli lei..how come u still put ar?

Auntie:oh issit..you did say meh? so now how? do you still want anot?

Me:I oredi make payment liao.Do i have a choice?

Auntie:remain silent.

I pick up the chilli food and walk away displeased. I mean is this the way to do business?somemore the price not cheap lor..small little pcs cost 80 cts to $1. Just bcos you are popular and many people visit your stall doesn't mean you have to hang your nose in the air.Many time whenever i walk past the stall,they don't bother to flash a smile at you lor..and i realised she choose people to smile and laugh lor...so biased wor..i bet with this kind of attitude,their business will be getting lesser n lesser and one day when all their regular gone,they might even need to close down..hehe

I vowed to myself that i am not going to patron this stall again..humph!
