Pepsi Cola 1, 2, 3!!

Got destroyed by the kids (who were probably skiving from Dance Camp) at that old schoolyard game haha. They're much faster than I thought. Got back at them in good ole' Catching though.

Sometimes All You Need

Is the right words and good typography.

Most of the Important Things In the World

Have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.

Don't Need Another Perfect Line

So nice to see the Cello and Classical Music (specifically Bach's Cello Suite No.1 Prelude) still have a place in today's music landscape! Please Rock the Cello!

Let's Rock Out!

About time we got some good old hardcore rocking going on. None of that wussy emo stuff. Some no holds barred, guitar shredding, unapologetic, actually epic even before that word became trendy, heavy metal.

Here's a playlist I created of their known setlist!

P.S. Please don't tell my mother.

Sweet Masquerade

Chris posing with the centerpiece of her custom order cake made for her Masquerade party: a Mask made of (I guess) sugar. Happy Birthday!

Future Selfs

Today a boy lost one of his rare Digimon cards and was so upset he almost cried. I told him that 10 years from now, he will look back and think it's ridiculous getting upset over something trivial like that and he won't even care for Digimon cards.

I then proceeded to tell myself the exact same thing. Minus the Digimon cards.

Reminder to Check Out

Quaint store along Prinsep Street we passed by on a late night hunt for Beancurd. Quick search reveals they have a "Garlic Buttered Prawn" Pancake! Sounds like fun don't you think?

The $20 Week: Days 5, 6 & 7

I realized I didn't post what happened through the last days of the week.

I basically felt a little sick on Day 5 but still went to the BBQ for some free food in exchange for some work done.

Day 6 the flu + sore throat combo kicked in full force. I still went to work and spent my last $3.50 on bottled water. Dinner was sponsored by a kind friend who owes me money anyway so that was a little :) on a bad day.

Balance left: -$1.50

Day 7 I couldn't take it and got Panadol Cold at $5.80. I had no idea those generic pills were so expensive and so terribly ineffective at making me feel any better. Pulled myself through work, went home and crashed.

Balance left: -$7.30

(BTW this Chinese Herbal Tea donated by a good friend is much better than Panadol Cold. Get it at your resident Chinese Medicine shop. 1 Bag makes 2-3 cups)

So it looks like I failed to keep within the $20 mark but hey, this still is easily the most economical week of the last 4 years of my life. I reckon I saved at least $30 there.

I guess the greatest thing I learnt was just how much I spend taking the taxi. This week alone, I've already spent $15.50 on taxi rides. I would have easily made the $20 mark if i took public transport instead :(

So once again Mr. Ong, manage your time well please and you can be a rich kid!

Busy!

Sorry for the recent lack of updates! Basically been busy out with friends and studying for my exams and doing some work! Here's your obligatory end of year Christmas lights shot from Vivocity while unsuccessfully searching for my Power Ranger mask.
