KRB Series: Nature Visits

Nature came to visit us (hmm, i think they came to visit me, not nayr) quite often at our outdoor bathroom. We had an average of one guest per night. =)

First Night: Mr Spider came - he stayed glued on the wall, and was so close to the toilet bowl - luckily he's not the hairy-looking, disgusting kind - quite the usual, black and harmless-looking fellow - I kind of liked him. Nayr did not. He disappeared after that.

First Night: Mdm Big Red Ant - think she molested my butt for a while - but quite harmless - think i kinda gave her a fright with my sudden appearance. Ha! Cos she disappeared after that and none of her family members came visiting - hmm, she must have warned them.

First Night onwards: Mr Lizard was our security guard - he would occasionally peep out from behind the washbasin mirror, made sure we are the correct guests and then swiftly return back to his hideout.

Second Night: Mr Frog - tsk tsk tsk, i must say he was very nasty to have played the camouflage game with nayr! Who would have noticed him? He could have lost his life if nayr decided to do some step aerobics while showering! Anyway, he should slim down cos nayr thought he was a toad - eww, i hate toads - luckily this one's a frog - and a very cute one -he was doing hoppity hop the whole night!

Last Night: Old Mdm Moth - okay, i think she came looking for nayr, not me. sorry, dun like her, so nothing much to comment.

KRB Series: The Krabi-ian Tourists' Favourite Flavour Award

Cast your Vote for the Krabi-ian Tourists' Favourite Flavour Award!

Candidate No.1 - Iced Ginger Tea

The drink that awaits you at your resort room after your long flight from home. With finely crushed ice filled to 2/3rd of the miniature glass, the first sip leaves your throat feeling a surge of refreshing coolness... The second sensation is one of heavenly sweetness that blends so amazingly well with the drink's slight tinge of gingerly taste...

Plus point - there is only one serving - so it leaves you craving for more..

Candidate No.2 - Peppermint Body Gel

What's better than a light concoction of body gel, that foams with a slight lather and leaves you coming out of the shower with a sweet-smelling peppermint-flavoured aroma? The simple-looking bottle that contains this refreshing body gel may look deceiving but after you discover its treasure within, you will look forward to returning back to shower everyday, and be awed by how it immediately takes away all your weariness/aches from your snorkelling day trips...

Plus point - this comes complimentary from the resort - so you can pamper yourself everyday - and with whatever much quantity you desire!

So, Ginger vs Peppermint, what's your vote?

Bloodfilled Sunday

Yesterday was a bloodfilled Sunday..

first of all, i ate this super red and blood(y)-lookin chicken in the mornin at the HV - cooked by some aunties. It was supposed to be hong2 zao1 ji1, they said - to make it worse (or better) - the serving was cold - cold and blood(y) chicken - and i kinda liked it - ate 2 servings somemore..
[blood(y) level: 5]

in the noon, went to watch 300 with Nayr & pals - wah, never knew watchin pple gettin killed brutally, like humans' killing of chickens during flu epedimic, can be so shiok and ENJOYABLE to some extent... my favourite scene is the one where this giant beast's head was chopped off - all in slow mo - smirk smirk smirk...
[blood(y) level: 9.999]

in the nite, went to eat superb food at Gyu-kaku at UE Square with shipmates - so, of course, after a much blood-acquainted day - i really enjoyed the medium-rare pieces of juicy and succulent beef (which usually i wont)..
[blood(y) level: 7]

tsk tsk, wat a violent girl i've become, tsk tsk..

"This is gonna be long, you wont enjoy it, I'm not your queen"

Dun "Uncle" me hor

Had an event for the past 3 days where I got to see many young people from the JCs and secondary schools, like my alma mater, which is a part of my job that I like.

Was chatting to them when I realised that I am TEN years older than some of them!

OMG where did the years go? Felt like yesterday that I was playing footy in my well-used school field...

Felt strange to have them calling me "Sir"... guess that in my heart, I am still in my early 20s!

Well, luckily none of them called me "Uncle"! That will be damn sad sia.

Happy 3 8 Day!

Didnt realise today is 8 March - 3 8 Women's Day until G messaged me in the afternoon..

Happy 3 8 Women's Day to all the 3 8 women in the world! Uh, i mean all the women lah...

3 8 Gnil

Important lessons of R.O.M.

Remember things to bring along, Remind all your guests, Ransack your mum's possesison of assessories early so u dun have to use the Bridal Studio's Orbid (old-fashioned) necklace (blaah!), Rehearse photoshoot poses (so u dun have to perspire with ur photographers under the sun, trying to think of poses, while your makeup melts, haha) and Reap the most out of the buffet reception (shd have asked for discount and complimentary carpark coupons, aiya!)

be On time, and not to be Overkiasu to do your makeup so early, end up u go to ROM so early, and then because u told your guests to arrive so early, EVERYONE had nothing to do, but W A I T. (I wld hereby like to sincerely apologise to all our guests, whom i think, have finished examining all their ten fingers by the end of the wait, hmm, maybe plus finished counting all the folds on the palms as well)
Important: Observe which guest(s) eats the most at your buffet. He/She may jolly well be the person who will drink up all your wine/beer supply during your actual dinner and make sure he/she earns his/her angpao worth back. haha..

lastly, Make sure you remember to complain about any nasty service you received, for example, if a lady at L*ve- That-B*nds talked to u in quite a stern and unfriendly tone, keeps asking you to control your guests and asked them to keep their volumes down, keeps chasing u and guests to go up to the suite and asking how come your guests havent all arrived, and making remarks like Eh, why your ring pillow like that one?

ok?

Mr and Mrs Hong!

End of an exhausting day! Thanks to Cedric and Yepeng for being our photographers, Meiling and Alex for following us to the Bridal Studio.. and all the friends and relatives for being there for our Big Day... Will post some photos and writeups after I get some sleep

Excitement as Big Day comes..

suddenly feel quite excited about the BIG DAY on Tuesday 6th March... looking forward to it! Hope Gnil is feeling the same way :)

Ryan's KHI

I have decided to do up a Ryan's Knee Happiness Index (KHI), to update about the recovery progress of my knee ACL, which I torn last December playing footy.

Here's the explanation of the KHI from past to present:

10 Dec - 14.12 - A low for the KHI as Ryan's broken his left knee ACL during a normal game of Sunday footy at NTU. Only way to go is up!

28 Dec - 32.32 - Ryan's knee undergoes surgery at Gleneagles hospital, leading to slight increase in KHI. More rehab to follow.

4 Jan - 55.23 - An increase of 20+ points from the 1st knee post-op analysis, doctor's comments: "excellent, recovering well"

11 Jan - 80.43 - Another increase as doctor's good analysis from 2nd post-op knee check-up.

18 Jan – 90.32 – Slight increase from Physio treatments, able to walk normally

25 Jan – 123.32 – good increase in KHI from knee doctor’s continual encouragement of progress and treatment

31 Jan – 240.27 – huge gains in KHI resulting from change in physiotherapist to young pretty female physiotherapist (YPFP)!

7 Feb – 259.32 – only sight increase as boredom from physio treatments sets in

15 Feb – 302.62 – another good increase. Overheard a guy trying to pick up YPFP

23 Feb – 402.23 – Permitted to start slow jogging after Knee doctor’s examination! KHI jumps 100 points

1 Mar – 362.12 – A small dip as YPFP was unavailable, attended by another physio
