It was the 2nd last thing I bought online. I looked a long time for it before Chinese New Year. Could not find something similar on Lazada and ended up buying from Taobao. It took quite a long time to come and arrived after Sunday afternoon after I left. The dragon head tortoise is meant to be placed in the north section of the home this year. My teacher told me the dragon head tortoise is supposed to be placed in the section where the Grand Duke (Tai Sui) is located as a…

Sunday Valentine's Day 2021. 3rd day of Chinese New Year. I went Suntec City looking for dinner. I spotted some huge old style calendars which were actually displays for telling you fortune for the different Chinese zodiac signs. 星期天2021情人节2021是年初三。我去新达城寻找晚餐。 发现了一些巨大的旧式日历其实都是为显示不同生肖在牛年的运程。 #SteemCn

It was Chinese New Year time, after leaving my inlaw's place, I went to my parents' place. I parked next to this moo moo taxi. 在农历新年期间，离开岳父母家后，我去了我父母家拜年。停在我车附近是这哞哞的士。 #Photography

@ace108

I went to Chinatown a few times before Chinese New Year and even on first day of Chinese New Year. I passed by Buddha Tooth Relic Temple a few times. These are some of the photos I took before Chinese New Year. 在没过年之前，我去了牛车水好几次，甚至到年初一也去到那里。我经过佛牙寺几次。这是在农历新年前拍的一些照片。 #Photography

If coins can grow on tree, let it be Bitcoin. The Chinese New Year decorations lightup around my area had stop for a few weeks already but they are still hanging on the trees. The include some coins and gold ingots. 如果树上能长币，就让它长比特币。我屋区附近的农历新年装饰已经没亮起来好几星期了但他们仍然挂在树上。那包括一些币和金锭。 #SteemCn

Monday was a nice clear day. I was working from home and had not plan to go out. So I dug out this Hot Pot food I found sometime ago. At the side, it tells that the cooking instruction is at the BACK of the package.I ripped open the package and turned it around. The instruction looks simple enough. 15 minutes later, the food was cooked. Not fantastic although it's from Haidilao but it's a convenient way to get something other than cup noodles. I guess you can bring it out…

The last time I went to the Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay was in January 2021. It was before the year of the Ox but this resident sculpture are Gardens by the Bay become so relevant for this year. It was raining and I was thinking weather it was a good idea to go although my wife had already book a slot. In the end, I drove there because I thought it would be less crowded when I just rained. Here are some photos before I went further in.…

Free charging is coming | 免费充电来了 I was walking home around town central after dinner when I saw the new bench made of full stainless steel. The "flower" at the top won't provide any shelter. On closer look, the words say "FREE CHARGING". There was some tape around it but I can the USB port there. 吃过晚饭后，我在市镇中心走回家时，到采用全不锈钢做的板凳。在顶部的“花”可不提供遮盖。 在仔细一看，有字标“FREE CHARGING”（免费充电）。 还有些带围绕着，但我可以在USB端口在那里。 #Photography

@ace108

I mentioned I went to the Flower Dome at Garden by the Bay before Chinese New Year. There are always nice flowers in there. So, of course I took some photos. There are also art pieces including this totem pole. 在以前一帖里，我提到农历新年前，我去了滨海湾花园的花穹。 这里总很多漂亮的花。当然，我要拍一些照片/ 也有艺术作品，就像这图腾柱。 #Travel

📷Dinner at Get Good Luck (Tim Ho Wan) | 添好运晚餐😎 Last Saturday, after walking around in Suntec City, my wife and I decided to go to Tim Ho Wan for dim sum for dinner. There were not many people there although it was Saturday night. My wife made the decisions and ordered a few items including a porridge with some meatballs and some kind of dried fish. Whole meal came out to be about $40. Tim Ho Wan used to be less expensive. That's why I don't go so often.…

Here is a video I I recorded in the Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay. https://youtu.be/2AI-MlvUFB4 After recording the video, I looked around and took a few more photos. I would be heading to the oxen. There are many flowers on the sides. The chrysanthemum are nice. 这是我在滨海湾花园的花穹里录制的。 https://youtu.be/2AI-MlvUFB4 录制视频后，我看看四周，多拍了几张照片。我会走向牛。 在两边有许多花。这些菊花挺好看。 #FlowersPhotography

Recently at Raffles City, I went in looked around. There were some people shopping but not a lot. We walked into a Crocs store because they have a 25% off for the second pair. The lady found one pair and I found her this other pair which was cheaper. They have some minions ones. Do you want one? Even with the discount, the 2 pairs cost more than $70. My wife went to the toilet. I waited and took a rare shot of the empty escalator on a Saturday afternoon.…

I was at Suntec City on 3rd day of Chinese New Year when I spotted some huge old style calendars. Oh, they are actually displays for telling you fortune for the different Chinese zodiac signs. Look at the details they put into the "calendar" at the top. 年初三,我去新达城。我发现了一些巨大的旧式日历。 啊，其实都是为显示不同生肖在牛年的运程。 看看他们细心做出在“日历”顶部的细节。 #SteemCn

📷#BeautifulSunday - Cooking the frozen mini-Yutiao/Cakoi | 欺诈油跳😎 Wasn't planning to go out early on Sunday morning. Checked out the freezer to clear some food. This frozen yutiao was bought last year. I removed the packaging. The instruction was only to deep fry them. I was going to use the airfryer. I went online and search a bit and decided to set the airfryer at 160 degrees Celcius for 6 minutes. They came out looking nice. Tasted good enough too. Maybe, I would buy them…

📷Saturday Noodle lunch | 星期六面条午餐 😎 Woke up rather late after a rather late night walk at Marina Bay on Friday. Went to check on the blog a bit after breakfast and didn't go out for lunch until quite late. My wife and I went to a coffee shop at Lorong 4 Toa Payoh for noodle. It's a place I go once a while if I go for lunch after taiji practice. There was a queue but less than 5 people in front of me. It turned out quite slow as there were a few people in front who were buying…

It was peak lunch time. My colleague found disconnected seats at a table. He called me…

📷Springing to life in the mall | 在商场活跃起来😎 Not that there is no life in the mall. In the last few months, I've noticed that malls are getting crowded. People flocked there and more so when the whether is not so good and they cannot go to the park. What is rare though is the usage of their open space like this one in Marina Square. For many months, there were little or no activities are open space of the mall but I saw this at recently. It's was like a display of Netherlands.…

Walking below the ninja | 走在忍者下😎 Last month, I went to Jurong Point to see if I can get something light to eat. Interestingly, it seems you need to scan the QR code for entry to go up or down but on the first floor, people were quite free to walk around. I just went down an escalator, I saw they have a row of Japanese food eateries and I decided to walk through. What's that? No, I'm not following that girl. That. A ninja on top. Interesting decoration. 那是什么？不，我不在跟着那姑娘。…

The CityLink Mall is an underground mall that links City Hall MRT train station to Esplanade station, Marina Square and Suntec City. It's not as crowded as other malls. Some the stores selling clothes were quite empty. They have a rather huge UFC gym there which was surprisingly empty on a Saturday night. There are some restaurants there but…

Yang Style Taijiquan 108 Strokes | 杨氏太极拳108式 ☯ This video is almost one year in the making. I recorded it on 2nd April 2020 before Circuit Breaker 1. I worked on adding audio to my previous taiji practise video and never got to finish editting this and adding the audio for this. Finally, I completed it recently. Hope you like it. Let me know if you have any feedback. 这部影片的制作时间将近一年。我是在“断路器”期间之前的2020年4月2日录制的。 我在之前的一段练太极拳视频中添加音频，但在这第二次录制的视频却迟迟不续完成加音频的工作。 最后，最近终于完成了。 希望大家喜欢。…
