One asked " if i join, can u teach me how to order goods directly from PS company?".
Thinking --->"huh? ive never ordered directly before and i dont even know how to type japanese!" This fan wants to save $$$,,,so informed him to figure out a way to order directly fm PS company himself. Eg, go learn Japanese.
Another: "if i join the fanclub, do i pay only the amount stated for the goods?"
Thinking --->"huh? do u mean ur goods fly to S'pore for free?"
Comparing to us, a few Europeans had signed up for the FC without a single question asked,,see da contrast?? (Sporean's $$ is very hard-to-earn. -.-")
Another odd question some time ago (also fm a Sporean) "can u help me bid this item from Yahoo japan? If yes, can u pls tell me hw much would the final bid be?"
Thinking ---> "huh? i dont have cosmic power to foresee the final bid
Singaporeans,,Singaporeans,,, *shakes head*
Bad news!~ had gained 2kg!! feel tat ive grown fatter,,so this morning, took out the bathroom scale to check...haiz,,it is true! I didnt go jogging for whole of dec coz it kept raining..so, ive slacked off,,the fat is coming back to hunt me!!~ I must avoid escalators and elevators from now on,,and also, meats!!
Today accompanied my mum to SGH for eye check up. The doctor is from China and she is doing her best to explain things in both languages. Can see she is doing her best to practise her English. Now, our doctors also need to be imported..i think our doctors went overseas for bigger job opportunities. There's alot of Fillipino/Indonesian nurses too. It is the same for some retail outlets. The best example would be Watson's. Almost all their staffs are "imports".
After the check up, went to Chinatown for early lunch. Had kimchi noodle soup and some gyoza for dinner coz its too tempting for me to ressit,,felt sinful after that. Tml will go vegetarian..Must do brisk walk le,,coz dont think can pick up jogging...lazy me. must plan exercise and diet schedules..it works coz ive tried it a few years ago during my Obese time.
oh yes, the green tea with collagen arrived last week and phew, it does not have any taste of pork. It taste just like ordinary green tea.
There's an article on MC King's funeral in today's Chinese newspaper. The reporter ended it with "after interviewing some of his neighbours and the public, no one can come up with the name of any dramas he had acted. I think this would be his biggest disappointment in this lifetime coz he dont have a drama under his name tat ppl can recall". I find it quite rude that he ends the report like this. Ppl dont remember his dramas coz he is Not the lead actor BUT ppl remembers his bright smiles and great jokes! This is wat he is being remembered for that is important!
Yday was at posb atm near my house. There were some renovations going on near the machines and heard the site Supervisor yelling at the workers. The workers were all Chinese. They have communication problem. 114 (a code for a metal sheet) is being read by the supervisor as "yi bai shi si" but the chinese workers replied we need "yi yi si". The supervisor kept repeating "yi bai shi si shi ma?" Well, in the end, the workers wrote the number in the air...finally it was being solved,, after 5 mins of haggling over language diff. Quite surprising to see Chinese workers coz mostly ive seen were Blangadesh workers. Now, near my house had alot of foreign workers. Last time only Malaysias. Thanks to these foreign workers. Without them, we cant have such a great place to live in.
My block's sweeper is also a foreign worker. He is very hardworking and moves up and down our block (22 storeys) without fail, sweeping every bits he saw on the floor. On top of that, he knows many residents and he WORKS WITH A SMILE. He takes great pride in his job! It's something we locals cant do it,,tats why, retail shops, hotels etc (service industry) has the most vacancies.
Interesting fact tat ive heard fm the radio yday:
Salty food reduces calcium.

oooh lots of foreigners in singapore!! it sounds very fascinating :).
and lol at singaporean customers not reading ^-^!!
and of course you can't do those things, japanese buyers always take a cut for their services. ppl need to make a profit you know. it is not charity.
is 2kg very much?? i've lost a lot of weight while being on winter break...but when college comes back...stress + fatty american foods + 2 large portion meal plan = weight gain x_X.
and the interviewer is a jerk. the man has passed, i think he could care less.
