Bald Dog

Wifey took the dog out for a hair cut.
Coco (the dog featured here) has gotten herself into some skin problem, either that she just got a bad habit of scratching herself until skin problem starts... sigh. So we decided to have her shaved, to remove all the bad hair (due to licking) and also better see what the situation underneath all those hair. Seems like she is not too happy with her haircut.


Here is the dog with hair.


















Here is the same dog without hair, you can see the grouchy face... kinda funny tho.













*stare what stare*

Chill Out Sunday

Spent a lazy Sunday afternoon at home before me and the wife decided to drag our lazy butts out of the house and headed to town.

First stop: Funan Centre.
To collect some free lame 'ol' radio alarm clock (Given by POSB EveryDay Card) from nets Rewards centre there. Ok lar ..... not bad looking after all. Then i bought a carrier for my 350D. Satisfied, we left the building.

Second stop: Lucky Plaza ,Scotts Shopping Centre
The wife took me watch shopping. A birthday cum anniversary cum valentine's day cum christmas gift. Narrowed it down to 1 model but i wanted to see a different colour and they dun have it there. So we need to come back another day when they will bring it over to that outlet. So going back another day.

After which ...... aimless wandering around.

After a Hainanese chicken rice dinner, coffee time!

Plonk out weary asses down at McCafe @ Shaw.















Choice Of Drinks: Iced Latte And Flat White

Canon 350D, REBEL!

First Day of Chinese New Year!!

Went to Holland Village and have Coffee Bean breakfast (cause the rest of the shop is closed). After a nice and long breakfast, we decided to pop by Paris Silk to look at digital SLR camera. Still tempted by the Nikon D50. When we got there, its around 10.30am and we seems to be the first customer.

After loitering in the shop for a long time, and the sales person who was very patience with us (very strange treatment, totally unexpected), we decided to get the Canon 350D. It was after long deliberation and comparison (between D50, D70s and Canon 350D) that we made the decision. The pro side of the Canon is the 8megapixel, lighter then D70, smallest frame (which I didn't really like). The downside is the camera's grip (due to the frame) and the finishing. But overall, its excellent camera, takes very nice pictures. Here are some samples:

Gostun Company Lunch (Yu Sheng Part III)

Today (3rd Feb 06) is the Gostun company's Chinese New Year lunch.
This is the third time that I would be lau-ing yu sheng. The first time was at Kam Boat Restaurant (Shaw), second time was Gim Tim Restaurant (Grassroot Club-AMK) and this time is the Prima Revolving Restaurant (Prima Tower).

This is the yu sheng that we had.
It was excellent, by far one of the better ones.
Btw, anyone notice the raw beef 'hiding' behind the yu sheng plate? Yum!




















This is one of their signature dish.
Egg white, fish & scallops, then add pepper and vinegar.
Very good! :)















Pork & Bun, chinese burger?
Its nice but not fatty enough.... but where there is fats, its good.















Peking duck's roasted skin!
I got a picture of couple of ducks without its skin.. it sure doesn't look as good as this:















Prima Revolving Restaurant... of course it revolves...
Here are some pictures of the view from the restaurant.
















































Team Gostun Consult plus wives!
















Thanks Tard & Felicia for the lunch!
