Good late Sunday morning and it's pouring outside. Woke up late without setting an alarm and that's nice. The thunder rolled. There are still people out and about, most with umbrellas. Ladies are running 3000m Steeplechase heats. I guess I'll just chill instead of doing anything for a while. #Photography

First Saturday in July 2021, my wife had to go and do some work after lunch. After roaming in Raffles City for a while, I decided to walk to Bugis Junction with a mission. I came across this vegetarian restaurant. I think it is quite new. I think I shall go back and eat there one day. Alas, no dine in is allowed now. 2021年7月的第一个星期六,太太吃午餐后得去做些工作。我在莱佛士城游荡一下后决定去白沙浮广场完成个任务。我金到过这个素食餐厅。应该相当新的。 我想我以后会去吃那里。唉,可惜现在不允许在餐厅用餐。 #Foods

Wife made some noodle with spicy pork cube from a can. Channel 5 has two men playing Singles badminton but I was looking for something more interesting. Then I found Qatar vs USA in men's beach volleyball 🏐. Each set won 1 set so far so this 3rd set is going to be exciting. #Foods

Men, how do you pee? | 男人,你怎么小便?😎 I was in Bugis Junction a few Saturdays ago when I went to the toilet. It seems someone think men need some advertisements while we pee nowadays. Well, I've seen men with one hand doing his thing and one hand scrolling his phone. Maybe, this will make less people do that. #originalcontent #myphotograph 😎 几个星期六前,我去了厕所。似乎有人认为男人在撒尿时需要一些广告。好吧,我曾见过有男人用一只手做那事情而用另一只手扫动他的手机屏幕。也许这会让男人更少双手应用在不同地方。 😎 #Photography

@ace108

Tesla is coming 😎 I saw the building which used to house Nissan on Thursday when I was in the bus going to the polyclinic. On Friday, I heard the news that they are taking a 20-year lease in the building. So I drove by on Saturday to snap the picture.

A few Saturday ago at Bugis Junction, I was closer to my place of mission when I came to the Tuk Tuk Cha place with a "tuk tuk" there. For those of you missing Thailand to get you Thai milk tea and all there. 好几个星期六前,在白沙浮广场接近我的任务地点是Tuk Tuk Cha。在那里有一个嘟嘟车。对于那些想念泰国的人可来买泰国式奶茶。 #Photography

📷Buying the phone cover before the phone | | 买手机前先买手机壳😎 In early June, I bought this phone cover. Now it's selling at cheaper price of $6.60 I paid $6.90 for it but at least I didn't have to pay shipping fee. So I guess it evens out. Considering it came all the way from China, taking about a week to delivery is considerable fast. It is for the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra which was a phone my wife bought and I was thinking of getting. It is similar to a previous one I had on my…

📷Checking out Porsche Taycan on a $BeautifulSunday | 美丽星期天查看保时捷Taycan😎 One Sunday in May when I walked in Gardens by the Bay, I saw a Porsche Taycan displayed there. It's Porsche first all-electric car. Porsche Taycan is a car most people in Singaproe cannot afford. I did a search and seems it will set you back by 500,000 SGD. Lovely but I can only enjoy looking at it. 5月在5月的一个星期天,当我在海湾走在花园里时,我看到了一个在那里显示的保时捷Taycan。它是保时捷的第一辆电动汽车。…

Going out for swab and vaccination😎 No, not the COVID-19. I have done that. This one is for a need job starting soon.

@ace108

Still early in the day as I left at 9am But some of the shops are starting to open. This is so much different from the busy Sundays around here. It should be more busy later but still will don't expect a crowd as much as Sunday. #Photography

@ace108

Ouch. Ouch. Ouch. And I'm hungry😎 Waited the whole morning then got jab 3 times after 1pm. Now, the swabbers are out for lunch and I have to wait till they are back before I can get swabbed.

@ace108

Chicken Rendang sandwich from Subway 😎 Been out the whole day. On the way home, I decided to get a sandwich from Subway. I heard they have new beef or chicken rendang flavour. Forunately, it didn't rain today. Unfortunately for the ladies running 400m hurdles in Tokyo, it is raining quite heavily. I guess no record will be broken for this event. #Foods

📷#BeautifulSunday - Went out seeing the cat | 出去看见猫😎 On Sunday, the rain stopped after we finished the housework and we went out. I saw the black and white cat. I went around to go to it from the footpath outside and it came toward me for a leg rub. Then it went around and lie down and continue to do it's pruning. #originalcontent #myphotograph 星期天,在完成家务后,雨停了下来,我们出去了。我看到了黑白猫。 我绕到外面的人行道上去找它,它朝着我走过来在脚下摩擦一下。 然后它走到后面躺下,继续梳洗。 #Photography

Grey out there and people are going out😎 It looked like it rained. I am not sure because I just woke up. The weather forecast calls for light rain. I have no special plan to go out because I am wanting for the 2nd Dyson fan I purchased which I had rescheduled the delivery from yesterday to today. #Photography

@ace108

COVID-19 test result😎 Negative. It usually takes quite a while to get the PCR result. That's what I know when I was working in the COVID-19 Task Group last year. I got swabbed yesterday afternoon. By night time after I had my dinner, the result is showing up in my Health Hub app. So, they don't need to send an ambulance to my home.

📷Bought a phone and got more | 买了部手机并得到更多😎 A few Saturday ago, I went to M1 store and got a queue number. After not very long, I was in there. They only allow you on person to go in and not in a group and they have a limit of total number of people allowed inside one time. After some inquiries, I renew with contract and got the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra at a lower price than my wife paid for one month before me and with a freebie tablet which she didn't get.

Out to buy lunch with a new haircut 😎 Last haircut was on 7th May. I remembered that wash the day they announced work from home by default and more while I was having lunch. I went to get a haircut after eating. There should be some announcement later this week. Don’t know we are in for some relax or more tightening. #Photography

After looking at one part which looks like onions in the water, I saw they have balls. There was a boat with lots of balls. I took a few more photos around the boat. I think these are quite nice. #originalcontent #myphotograph 当我在2021年5月在海湾的湾花园时,我看着“戴尔希哈斯:玻璃盛开”的阴部展品。看过些像洋葱的继续走,我见到很多粒球。…

Congratulations to the 21 year old man😎 What an exciting pole value event. I wanted to just watch a bit and then go online and do something but it was so exciting I watch till the end. The man representing Sweden already won gold with height of 6.02m. His father advise him to go ahead and he went to try to break his record of 6.18m setting the height to 6.19m. Unfortunately, he couldn't make it nevertheless, it was stunning performance and a well-deserved gold.

📷After vaccination | 接种疫苗后😎After the COVID-19 Swab and 3 other vaccinations yesterday, I left the place hungry and took a photo of the SGH area. Along the way to the bus stop, there were a few boards for me to dispose of the stickers issued during temperature for entry. I wonder what my ex-colleagues in the Police Cantonment Complex were busy with as I waited for the bus. #originalcontent #myphotograph 昨天在诊所测试和接种三种疫苗的任务后离开时已经饿了,拍了一张新加坡中央医院地区的照片。 一路走到公车站,有一些板让我处理量体温后发给人的贴纸。…

A new day, a new job😎 It is raining out there but I'm starting a new job today. Hope to put to good use the skills I learned in the last two years. In these pandemic times, I'm glad and feel lucky that I can still get a job that matters to me. Guess I have to bring an umbrella or the rain may stop soon if I'm lucky enough. #Photography

@ace108

End of day 1 at work😎 Already out of the office of the new job. Went out to buy lunch back to office during lunchtime as we couldn't dine in. It is pity we cannot dine in because the place is just by the pool.

@ace108

📷Hungry after vaccination | 接种疫苗后,肚子饿😎 After finishing my vaccination errand on Monday, I went to food centre which was one of the place I frequent when I worked around there to meet my wife for lunch. Not allowed to dine in so we went to a public area with seating to have our lunch. Bought two packs of char siew rice. #originalcontent #myphotograph 在星期一忙完了接种疫苗那回事后,去了当我那里附近工作时常去的熟熟食中心。太太在那里等我吃午饭。 买了两包叉烧饭。不允许堂食所以我们去公共区域找个地方坐下来吃午饭。 #Foods

We walked to a dessert shop after that and bought two desserts without knowing where we would be eating. Check out the dragon tap.It is attached to the big container inside. #originalcontent #myphotograph 在星期一疫苗接种后与太太一起吃午餐后,太太想去买些药油,所以我们去了珍珠大厦。…

Missing a coffee in the morning😎 Took a bus to work place in the morning without getting any caffeine at home. Was early enough so I went the food centre after getting off the bus. Found a stall where few people are queueing for coffee and I went to join the queue and paid $1.10 for a black coffee and brought it back to office to drink.

@ace108

Lunch was almost vegetarian 😎 I went to the same place I bought coffee in the morning to buy lunch. Ended up buying from the vegetarian. I had brown rice and other things including fried eggs I know some people don't consider egg as a vegetarian diet but everything for only 3 bucks. #Foods

Then we walked to Boat Quay. There were are group of people there shooting a video. They put two tables by the side of the river and a couple were sitting at one trying to make people think they were in a riverside cafe that does not exist. Why the hell such a big group breaching the safe…

It is a good Friday morning 🌄 Going out to office without coffee again. Oh, I realised without breakfast too. I'll have to grab something nearer to office.

Went to look for breakfast before reaching office 😎 Left home without breakfast so I went to the food centre before going office. Bought peanut pancakes and a coffee but cannot eat there. On the way back to office, there is another store where I can get snacks and coffee too. I should try that sometime. #photography #food

Around 10pm near the Merlion😎 And people are still refusing to go home. Some are looking for something to eat and drink. I'm going home after a series of night photo shoot. #photography #singapore

@ace108

What's for lunch?😎 I wondered as I went out to buy. To the same food centre where I bought breakfast. Many stalls were not opened. I went further inner section hoping to give a stall there some support. The fried kway teow stall didn't look like need any help. The fishball noodle stall didn't have any customers. I decided to go support. He asked me if I want the $3 or $4 portion. Actually, I wasn't that hungry but I bought the $4 just to support a bit more. Of course, back…

📷Eating dessert between a few photos | 拍几张照片间吃甜点😎 Right in the middle, the building is Asian Civilisation Museum. Near one end of the museum is Cavenagh Bridge which joins to Fullerton Hotel. We found a bench slightly further away from the video shooting and eat our dessert. After eating, I decided to take one last photo before going off. I wanted to make that photo into black and white for a photography contest. #originalcontent #photography #myphotography #singapore…

📷Testing the zoom on the cat | 用猫测试拉近😎 On the way home on Friday night from work when I saw the clinic cat as I go to the coffeeshop to get dinner. I decided to stopped further from it and snap a few photos to test the zoom and not to wake it. So I stood on the same spot and zoom in. And zoom it. And it gets a bit blurry but not so bad. I'm not sure if it because the high zoom with bit of movement that is causing the blur. I'd have to test is again but I had to get dinner.…

After buying lunch yesterday, I saw these public benches outside the food centre which actual became dining area of some people. Of course for me, it's back to office to eat. Luckily, come Tuesday, I shall be able to dine in. Let's see how the crowd will be like then. 熟食中心外的公共长凳实际成为一些人的用餐区。 当然对我来说,还算回到办公室吃啦。还好从下星期二开始可在熟食中心吃。看那时人潮怎么样。 #photography #food #singapore

📷No dinner from KFC | 没在肯德基买晚餐😎 I was looking for dinner on Monday afternoon. First, it was KFC but they didn't have the new egg tart flavor which they advertised. Still bit early for dinner for most people so it wasn't crowded. Since no dine in is allowed, Colonel also does not need to be the safe distance ambassador. #photography #myphotograph 星期一下午·我们开始寻找买晚餐的地方。首先,去肯德基,但他们没有他们打广告的的新蛋挞口味。 但是还不是晚餐时间所以也不是很多人。 由于不允许在那里用餐,因此上校也不需要是安全距离大使。

It's not Christmas in August😎 We used to have more fancy decoration lights for National Day around the town central on the middle of the road. This year is a little mooted.

Still taking out lunch back to office😎 It was a bit warm and there were people eating at the food centre. I decided to get brown rice from the vegetarian stall again. I think that's going to be me new favourite stall near the new workplace. It's a good 3 bucks meal.

She ordered chicken rice from a place I walked to buy from last week. Not only had to pay deliver fee but has to pay higher price. The $9 dumpling soup is definitely not worth it.

This is the entrance hotel guests are dropped off from vehicles. I suspect this front is actually the back in…

📷Fullerton Hotel - the other front | 富丽敦酒店 - 另一前😎 I went around taking photos of the front at different angles. I think this was where people would mostly go in when it was the General Post Office. The lady was snapping away too. Then I took a photo from this front. Doesn't the last one look more like the front? #originalcontent #photography #myphotograph #travel #singapore 我走过不同的角度拍摄正面的照片。我猜这是人们大多数人以前进出总邮局的地方。 女人也在抢着拍。 然后我从这个前面的一张照片。 这看起来比较像前面吗?

Sour grapes😎 I bought some grapes from Fairprice Supermarket yesterday. Some were sweet. Most of them were sour but it's not so bad, I don't mind sour though the skin is a bit thicker than others I have had before. Anyway, it's good source of vitamin C and the lady mind the sourness so if I don't finish the job, who will? #food #photography #Foods

TGIF I'm working from home today😎 Woke up bit late too and it's raining even heavier than yesterday. Luckily I'm staying dry working from home. The lady is going to office in the afternoon. Hope the rain stops by then but this looks like a long one. 9 hours to chill time and counting. Yay. #Photography

Lunch: sour grapes with wanton noodle 🍜 😎 Yes, I have to continue my mission with the sour grapes. The lady had to go out to office later and she went out to buy lunch . There is a new rice and noodle stall in the coffee shop nearby. I told her to go support the people who started business in pandemic times. I took photos in different orientation and I think the portrait looks better. #food #photography #lunch #tgif #Foods

Took the number tent and waited before a lady served the two cups of caffeine and I stayed awake till slightly past midnight. #coffee #photography #awake

📷To Vegetarian Dinner and a root? | 素食晚餐后见一根 Met my wife for dinner and we went to the D'Life vegetarian restaurant near home on Monday day. It was the first time we had their hot and sour soup. It was OK but I didn't like the strong smell of vinegar. Perhaps, they should cook it longer rather than just add vinegar late. We both choose the claypot "chicken" rice. It was nice and hot. After dinner, we went to the supermarket next to it to take a walk rather than buying…

The fried fish more salty than before. After lunch, my wife decided to buy fried kway teow for her parents. It was a long wait. Other parts of the food court, many people were also waiting. Each table can only seat at most 2 people. I was so bored waiting and this mynah was making so much noise, I decided to test…

It took about 2 weeks to come from China and deliver to the pick locker near my home. Not the first time I pick up something from pick locker but I'll write about the first time another time. I brought it to office and opened it the following day. It is plastic and does not look very sturdy. There was some stain which I…

📷Spotting the state flag fly in | 发现国旗帜飞😎 Saturday evening. After having dinner at The Central at Clarke Quay, I was walking with my wife. There seems to be many people sitting around including a few with cameras setup. I was wondering if it was related to the National Day Parade which is not far from there but not near too. I was looking at the opposite direction from where most people were facing and I might have been the first one who spotted the state flag. Try to find…

📷State flag fly in - the video | 国旗帜飞 - 加视频😎 There were actually two flags flying when I saw the helicopters at Clarke Quay. The helicopters started going in different directions. I remove zoom to be able to see them. One of them was flying towards my direction. I took one with wide angle and decided to record a video after that. Here is the video I recorded: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxuP1jgAgys #originalcontent #photography #video #singapore #ace108…

Snack time on Monday😎 I only had a cheese sandwich for lunch. Went to the fridge. This thing that was given by office in my previous job is the last tube left. I quite like these papadom but I'm not really a Snack buying kind of person. So if I finish this, I guess I won't be eating these again for a long time. #Foods

After dinner drink😎 As we open up and can dine in, I thought I'll take a drink at this bubble tea shop. There are 94 COVID-19 cases today. Hope we won't close things down again.

📷Knock, knock. Is there a little mermaid | 敲,敲门。美人鱼在吗?😎 As I continued to hide from the rain when I visited the zoo in May, I went through this door. Check out the cool door handle. Is the little mermaid in there? No mermaid and no seahorses too but see if you can spot the fish under water. The next one has a few fishes but I guess the fast moving blurred one is more obvious, right? #originalcontent #photography #myphotograh #singapore #zoo #ace108…

Supposed to be 50% allowed back in work place but the food centre seemed crowded enough at lunchtime. Not vaccination required to dine in but only of twos allowed but there was at least a group of 6 spilt into 3 groups. There were also less seats available which made it difficult to eat there. So I bought lunch and went back to office again. #Photography

Then a last photo before I spotted the state flag flying in facing this direction. #originalcontent #photography #myphotograph…

As the bus passed Lucky Chinatown, I saw they are starting to setup decorations for mid-autumn festival. A little late this year.

Bad news and affect closer to home😮 We have a new COVID-19 cluster two days ago at a mall, Bugis Junction. Over 2 days, they have more than 100 infection including staff from a department store. Then yesterday, closer to home, a cluster at Toa Payoh Bus interchange with 25 infection was announced. It's probably going to take 2 weeks for the number from these clusters to come down. Now, I have to not go towards the town central as much but I've seen bus drivers waiting for…

Good morning and checking outside who's out. There is a new covid-19 cluster at the bus interchange new by but I guess there is no way to avoid there easily if you need to go somewhere. Testing the zoom here, I saw some guy not wearing the mask properly. A new MRT train line, at least part of it starts operation today. People get to go to some places more easily. The weather looks good enough for a day out but I'll try to avoid bus if possible though going in office next…

Didn't go nearer to the bus interchange for lunch. Avoiding because of a new covid-19 cluster at the bus interchange.

Based my research, they have no wings and cannot fly. #photography #animals #singapore #zoo #myphotography #ace108 哦,蟑螂,这是马达凡嘶嘶作响的蟑螂。另外一组在五月去动物园见到的生物。 巨大的,但至少他们不会飞。我上网研究,他们没有翅膀所以不能飞翔。
