Chicken Wing Cravings


I have been having cravings for chicken wings for quite a while.

And just last week I went to Sunset Bar & Grill for their famed spicy levels Buffalo Wings.

However I still need more chicken wings.....

Strange as I normally do not have cravings for chicken. Let alone Chicken Wings!

Whatever it is, people involved in my eating life. Do something about it and make wings happen for me!!!

New Yoyo since god knows when.

It's been awhile since I bought a new yoyo to play with. I play with my yo-yos literally everyday. Be it a simple few minutes while waiting around for someone or something to happen. Or days when I have the mood to go full on 1-2 hour sessions just jamming in my room alone. Or sometimes with pals when we hang out.

Well gone are the days of buying anything I fancied. Everything had to be carefully thought out and planned before purchase. Especially these tough times when I have the wedding and crossover coming up. Monetary issues are a real pain.

Then comes along a yo-yo with a color so nice I just have to get. At only $17.90 it was easy for me to get. So I went ahead to put a nice KK concave bearing and plucked out the sidecaps. Now it plays quite well. Good enough for my daily throw. But just not serious enough for serious play. If you know what I mean.

Crossing over it all.


I went for my final confirmation and briefing for my Bachelors course for the next 2 years.
It seems like a scary proposition. With another Academic Subject to learn and teach. But I always love a challenge.

And things can only get better for our future when this eventually tides over.
Onward to Golgotha!

Artistic Chores.

We all get bummed when we have to do chores. Cleaning is not fun at all. So on this saturday afternoon I just had to clean off all the dust accumulated on my fan. The weather is not funny, so my fan is on almost 24hrs as long as I'm home. The clogged dust did not help as I had to turn it full blast to even feel a hint of wind from it.

So what happens when you get a bored artist and a boring fan?


Don't we all love colorful stuff?

Law Abiding Citizen....... A sad story.

You know how we always hear about sad(suay) stories.

A normal, decent married man. Simple job, simple life. Only to recently discover that he has STD which he has contracted from his ex ex ex girlfriend. They did nothing wrong at that time. Doing normal things normal couples in love would do. Only thing wrong was the relationship did not work out.

Well here I am in a similar situation. No I do not have STD. But today I was slapped with a hefty fine of SGD$200 and 12 demerit points. All for a traffic offence I have absolutely no idea about. Beating a traffic light.

I drive around a lot daily. And I have always been a traffic law abiding driver. I am the kind of person that is willing to walk 3x football field lengths just to park my car legally and paying for it!

Of course the offence had been committed. And I am fully responsible for my own actions. But to not even know what happened and getting punished for it just makes it that much harder to swallow. I honestly do not recall beating any traffic lights, all I can conclude is that the amber came too quick and I was caught in the brutal cross fire.

Just a simple case of being in the wrong situation at the wrong time.

Anyway this is definitely an expensive and hard lesson learnt.

Stay safe. Drive safe everyone.
And stay away from the law. Because when bullets fly. Everyone goes down.

Big ship to Spain.




Had a dream about going to Spain on a big big ship.

With Scorpions, cameras that can repel squids, a hyperactive anteater and a poor pink rabbit with fish eyes that got attacked by lobsters.
