Random Stuff
I have been staying at Singapore for more than 1 month. It’s not hard to blend into the busy life here. Although I haven’t got a job, but I have been gaining weight by sitting at home being couch potato! Darn!
Speaking of couch potato, I show you all one funny commercial that all of us (Me, Hongkiat, Caker and Jim) have been enjoying the most. Everytime this is playing on the TV, we will pause a while to watch this commercial. It successfully grab away all our attention. Telco (StarHub and SingTel) here are doing ‘bao ka liao’ service – cable tv, telephone fixed line, mobile services, internet service. You can pay all your watch, talk and surf in one bill.
Creative hor?
Another creative product they produce is the very localize soft drink. I think some of you might have already seen or read it somewhere(Boss Stewie and Syen also blogged about it already), the Whatever and Anything drink. So, no more worries what to order liao. Oh, apparently they have the commercial too, very funny also.

Anything Commercial
Whatever Commercial
Damn Hilarious lo!
One more thing also damn funny one. There are some of the people like to pee in the elevator till the government put up the signboard and even ‘urine detection device’ (sound canggih neh) in the elevator! I’ve seen the signboard in the elevator at those HDB Flats. Of course, you will get fine for doing that – that’s if you get caught. This warning is giving to guys only la, girls can’t possibly pee there, you know how troublesome for girls to pee la. Can’t believe this is happening.

[Picture taken from Beconfused]
In the ‘kiasuland’, some of the food are prepared in a very big portion. The other day we went to North Point for dinner, the Nasi Kandar stall always got long queue one, but that day the queue was short, so Hongkiat decided to give that nasi kandar a try. He then came back with very big rectangle place.

A lot of Nasi Briyani, with papadam, vegetable and 2 big drumstick. Wah lau eh. Almost like 2 person meal already. I definitely cannot finish it by myself. Caker always said “Singpaorean Kiasu ma, so all the food very big portion.” Not to say it’s not good, but very generous lo, and price is cheap. I still can order $2 Mee Hun Kuay! Super cheap and nice. Haha.
One last thing before the entry end. I saw this ‘banner’ in the MRT, I know I saw this somewhere before, but can’t remember where did I see it. Everytime I see this name, I would read it as “Abothen”, can’t help it. The famous phrase that we used in our daily conversation.

I know it does not sound anything near “abothen”, just like the word “sorbet” I saw in shopping mall, can’t help it but to read it the way I first saw the word, naturally.

aiya the anything whatever commercials have been around for quite some time liao, only the starhub commercial is pretty recent, there’s another version of the starhub commercial, u know the one where the girl is relaxing on the couch while her three male slaves are doing housework…
its actually pronouced abuthen, meaning duh.
sorbet is a type of dessert, used to cleanse the palate in between courses, not quite ice-cream, but icy ice-cream, anyone got better explanation?

You are a useless piece of shit. Lazy, unimaginative, and only know how to enjoy. There’s so many job opportunities in malaysia and you waste time there looking for job. And i dun think you are trying hard. You are just plain sloth. Your future is sigh…….

North point… lol long time no go there liao, more than 1 years+ ever since i moved out from bishan. Btw, you should try out the Chicken Rice there. Operated by a young couple selling chicken rice.
That side got few food courts. It is the one nearest to that supermarket. Try out their chilly and soup (bland but nice).
His shop is next to the indian shop. I recommend the roasted chicken rice and whack the chilly. Yummy.
If you are going there in the weekend better to be from 10.30am to 12pm, to avoid queue / “hong fei hong sao tong”.

jimcako.
You are a useless piece of shit. Lazy, unimaginative, and only know how to enjoy.
[As if you know Cely that well? What she blogs here is not 100% of her life. If you are just a blog reader that judge on what you read, then I think you are way too shallow.]
There’s so many job opportunities in malaysia and you waste time there looking for job.
[There are plenty of job ops in Malaysia, that does not mean looking for jobs overseas are a waste of time. Have you been overseas? You'll be surprised how many talented Malaysians have actually left their motherland. Again, I think you are shallow. ]
And i dun think you are trying hard. You are just plain sloth. Your future is sigh…….
[How you know she is not trying hard? You monitor her life like Trueman show? You are triple shallow. And btw, even if she don't work, her expenses and beautiful life for this long run, will be covered by me and accompanied her previous friends.]
