My first isolation lunch last Wednesday😎 Was from Burger King. Fast Food won't have been my first choice for my first COVID-19 meal but I was going to be stuck I my room for 10 days. The doctor didn't say what I should not eat. So, I just let my wife decide and take care of ordering the food. #Foods

Day 2 with COVID-19 20210923😎 This is my usual breakfast. A slice of bread with butter and/kaya. It would run and I was wondering if I need to find a way to get bread later without bothering people. Ordering just a loaf of bread for delivery does not make sense for the delivery fees. My usual coffee didn’t smell like it and taste not as good too. So I had lost some sense of smell and taste. I started using the oximeter given but the government and I guess I have to use it…

They usually sell different things for different season. Of course, scary decorations are available. Or you can put on something scare the hell out of people.

Changing lights😎 Recently, I looked out if the windows, I saw these guys were changing a traffic.

It's work from home Thursday. Looks like we may get rain. Don't know what will be getting for lunch but my wife went out before lunch on Tuesday and bought ngoh hiang back.. You basically pick different items they have at the stall and hand to them. They will quickly fry the items that were mostly already cooked. They have fried bee hoon to serve with it but I feel most important is the chili sauce. 😎

At a car park lot there, I spotted a Tesla. I saw their building recently and was not ready but apparently they have been selling well. News report said in September that they outsold all the other brands of electric vehicles. Recently, Hertz has decided to buy a big load of Tesla and now even taxi companies in…

📷$10 and 10 minutes later, a haircut | 10块钱喝10 分钟后，完成理发😎 I had dinner at Bishan last Saturday and decided to walk around in the Junction 8 mall. Malls have cleaner toilets. 😎 Near to the toilet, I saw this shop that does haircut for $10. There is another on another floor which had increased price from $10 to $12 for a while. My last haircut was in early August before I started the current job. There are places near home that are cheaper but many of them haggle with you to…

📷Went to old town for dinner | 去旧镇吃晚餐😎(by @ace108) Last Saturday, my wife and I went to our old town for dinner. Technically, the Bishan town where we used to lived in is newer than the Toa Payoh town we are living now. This coffee shop there has a lot more action than we used to see. Maybe, next time. We came with a mission. The community club was brightly decorated. I guess it should be for Diwali but maybe part of it will change for Christmas. Reached the coffee shop we…

📷 Starting of the end of the year 😎 I took this photo as I crossed the road to the bus stop and see that I missed the bus. The next one will be 16 minutes later. It's the first day of November and I have to go to the workplace to get some month end reports out. It also means it's the beginning of the end of the year as we countdown to Christmas and the New Year. Have you achieved your objectives this year? #Photography
