Coffee, Tea, and Koi.

Am drinking hot milk tea now while I'm typing this!

My office is super cold, and I'm now a fan of hot coffee and tea. Haha. I think that coffee tastes especially good when it's in those takeaway cups, because it doesn't seem to taste that good at home =P


Anyway, how come menu always write "Kopi-O", "Kopi", and "Kopi-C"? It means Coffee with sugar, Coffee with milk , Coffee with sugar and evaporated milk respectively.

Why don't have a term for Coffee with milk AND evaporated milk???

I don't like Coffee with sugar and evaporated milk only, so I cannot say I want Kopi-C. I also cannot say Kopi only cos Kopi without evaporated milk not that nice.

So I always say "Kopi, add more C okay?"

Then sometimes they will misunderstand, thought I want Kopi-C. :(


Anyway, yesterday was the first time I tried Koi BubbleTea! I've been hearing all the buzz about it since a long time ago on twitter and has been wanting to try but always forget when I'm in Bugis. Finally I remember and here goes what I think about my first cup of Koi BubbleTea.

It's quite nice lah. The tea is got a strong C taste that I like and it taste fresh! But I felt that if the tea could be slightly thicker, it would be better.

And I also prefer bigger pearls!!! Even when sweettalk introduced mini pearls last time I also disliked it!! I prefer normal large chewy balls than the small ones Koi produce.

But still, their tea is quite nice lah, next time got Bugis will drink again! The queue is not that long and the waiting time is acceptable!

And something good about Koi is that.... got alot pearls!!!!

I don't understand why would anyone buy bubble tea without pearls. If dont want pearls(and any other jelly) then buy bubble tea for what, go buy normal coffeeshop ice milk tea or fruit juice lah! Right?

When i have something to blog about, i have too much to blog. When i've nothing to blog about, nothing comes out no matter how much i squeeze my brains.

I've been squeezing my brains for the past 1 week while posting up saved drafts (those i wrote during my over-many-stuff-to-blog days).

Today is officially the day that i dont have any more drafts to post.

I haven't been going out much recently. These few days Mum doesn't seem to be pleased about me coming home late. She tsk-ed me when i said i had a advert client meeting tonight. =(

I dont want to upset her, but I felt like i neglected my girls and blog readers (and my life. zzzzz)!

Another thing is that my left eyelid very pain don't know why. Cannot even stay at home put on contact lens + makeup and take camwhore pictures to post.

If I can turn back something about my life, I would take super care of my eyes when I am 5. Then I won't be spectacled and I no need suffer from contact lens pain anymore. Yoohooo! I don't mind exchanging 5cm of my height for perfect eyesight ._. Short good what, can look tiny and small and everyone will say you are cute. Unlike my current height, not tall not short. When I wear heels I look like giant when I don't wear heels I look stumpy. zzzzz.

Working is no good. Gobbles up all my time. When will anyone sponsor me a travel-blogging job?

WHY MY LIFE NOT HAPPENING ONE :(


Anyway, a short mention for MillyWalker, she has just launched her new collection. I'll post up another advert after I receive her item!


Hahahah I becoming more and more incoherent without any link from one paragraph to another liao. BYE!




Oh ya, something else. You commentors starting to become lazy and not active liao hor, buck up!! Hehehehe.

Outfit post - Fail :(

Hello everyone.



I experimented with lower eyeshadow makeup like those in Japanese magazines but ended up with miserable results. I look like I have a serious case of dark circles. hahaha.

Anyway, that's not the point of today's post.

The main thing I want to say is, I tried to do an outfit post but failed terribly.
Why?

I don't know why I settled for such lousy compact quality before I tried the Olympus EP1. My current camera is great for camwhoring, food pics, etc, but it's really bad when it comes to full body pictures. The Olympus EP1 that I used for advertorials awhile back was a loan piece and they would be giving me a brand new one soon. And thus, I do not have any decent camera to use for now :(

All the photos are so grainy!! I gave up after afew shots. Guess the rest of the pretty pieces I took from theblogshopsg would have to wait.

I started off really excited, with accessories and shoes to match, but after awhile it's so frustrating that the pictures aren't turning right that I decided to heck it.

And something else. I'm really bad at posing. Sometimes my pose would be good and my face would be crap and I'll delete it off immediately. Yes, I would rather look like a piece of wood than have a super pose with a funny face.

I think I need an in-house photographer to take awesome shots for me. Why my father not interested in fashion photography!!!!

Super Sad :(

Reader's Request #1

Reader Request #1


5 things I do at home that you don't know:

1. showing expressions to the mirror
- I like to make random faces at the mirror. Like smiling:D, pouting:[, shocked face:O, etc. Lol Crazy I know.

2. shouting "bobo" randomly
- Sometimes when I walked pass my bedroom I would shout randomly to the bear(he's named bobo) on my bed "BOBO~~~!!!!!!!" Hahaha

3. toilet door
I dont close my toilet door if I'm going to be inside for just a minute. If i hear footsteps, I would shout "DONT COME HERE AH!!" or "BU YAO KAN!!!" to which my father would reply "SHUI YAO KAN, NI GEI WO KAN WO DOU BU YAO KAN"

Lol.


4. dance suddenly
Sometimes I walk halfway I'd dance some really exaggerating moves. If I good mood lah, that's for sure.

5. talk to myself.
Just gibberish nonsense that doesn't makes sense. I guess I just needed to talk. I'm as talkative as how my primary school teachers always comment on my report book.



I got abit regret that I promise to blog about this reader's request topic lor.

Hope you all will still love this crazy blogger T_____T

My Breast

Today's I'm going to talk about breastmeat.

Not just mine, but also chicken's.



I really hate it when fast food counters give me breastmeat/ribcage meat when I already emphasize I want thigh meat/drumstick.

Don't you all hate Fried/Roasted breastmeat? It's so dry and hard and so not nice to eat, I'd rather not eat at all!

That day I bought 2 pieces from Texas Chicken (I think arnold chicken tastes better by the way), and I said I want thigh meat. In the end? I saw the counter staff giving me ribcage meat! I'm not sure if it's called the ribcage, but it's 3/4 breastmeat and 1/4 thigh. The moment I set my eyes on it I know it's not thigh liao.

Sidetrack abit, I think I can open chicken stall liao lor. Without biting, I see the meat I will know is thigh or breast already. SX always think he can bluff me through when he forgets to say "thigh meat" when he buys chicken for me. He always say "IT'S THIGH, YOU SEE", and I'll reply "NO ITS NOT." I think my whole family got this skill. Whenever my mum cook a whole chicken, the thigh parts get grabbed up first ALL THE TIME. Then halfway through when most of the thigh parts get snatched up, we use our chopsticks to poke here poke there see if can find a thigh among all the breast. Lol. And when we confirm there's no more thigh meat, you see no one picking up meat from the plate anymore cos all is breastmeat.

I can also taste overnight chicken from fresh chicken. I think I got this skill because my grandfather used to own a chicken rice stall, my mum used to open another chicken rice stall, and my uncle is currently the boss of his chicken rice stall. And because of this, I eat overnight chicken (cooked with dark sauce and ginger. very nice!) alot as a child.




Okay, back to what I was talking about earlier, when I saw the meat I repeated to the staff "I want thigh meat leh." The staff insisted that it was thigh meat, so I assumed that since she's a staff she should know better than me so brought it back to the office and imagine how irritated I was when I bite into the breastmeat!!!!!

If I was dining in, I would have immediately went to the counter and say "Eh, you SURE this is thigh meat?"


I think fried/roasted breastmeat is unbearable!



I tweeted about this incident and someone replied that eating chicken breastmeat helps in increasing breast tissue.

I KNOW!!! I've noticed this!!

When I was working in a restaurant previously, I realised that those who request breastmeat are all voluptuous!! And all those who request thigh meat have big butts like me -_________-

Although I'm really very flat, but I think that I do not hate myself being like this. Of course I prefer having at least something to grab lah, but even without, I feel perfectly fine. (disclaimer: For Now. if not later next time I complain about being flat you all dig out this post and shoot me. tsk!)



I make flat jokes about myself all the time! I just felt that it's funny, and I really do not mind people saying that I'm flat. I don't think it really matters!! Well, I don't earn a living by flaunting my assets.


One thing I find annoying about being flat is that whenever I wear tube dresses, it tends to drop below my bra and I wont realise it until someone point it out!!! The other time I walked from Orchard mrt to the other end of Wisma with my tube below my bra and I didn't realise. Embarrassing!!!!

Also, loosefront/lowcuts look so horrible on me! I mean, at least other people have at least some meat so it looks fitting. Didn't you realise I wear a tube inside whenever I'm wearing V infront? If only I had some assets to fill it up!!


BUT.
The ultimate perk of being small-chested?


WE LOOK THINNER THAN WHAT WE ACTUALLY ARE.
I'm actually very flabby you know, but people like to describe me as petite or "YOU SO SMALL SIZE WHERE GOT FAT", I have no idea why so I'm blaming it on my lack of assets. It's AN OPTICAL ILLUSION!
