After 2 years of lockdown and mom and dad being in and out of the hospital with no opportunity to enjoy the annual durian seasons, today we celebrate my dad being able to walk at least 50m with the walker, and mom is healed from h-pyloric infection (and not able to eat anything solid for straight 7 months). Every mouthful was worth every penny; and I think other than Red Prawn, Black Gold Musang King is my new favourite because the balance of bitter and sweet not only is…

Been busy the whole week from hospitals to work and ministry. Finally the long weekend is here and time to treat myself with some "adventure" with the new toy finally arrived to town! 😋
Braving the Universe Bridge Seas for my NFT HERO *The door opens and screeches.... the Tavern was damp but the lights were lit all around...* *"I need a HERO, one with the balls to cross the ridged seas of Harmony that bridges over to a new universe to Crystalvale"* *There were silent for a short while... no one responded with words with blank eyes staring.... as if this seems to be a* ***suicide mission****.* *Gulped with a little trail of sweat, looking around, with the…
Fancy graphics! Finally had the guts to send one of the #defikingdoms #HERO over from Serendale ( #Harmony ONE) to Crystalvale (DFK-chain) after hearing all the horror stories of "lost HEROes in limbo" during an over-surged traffic a few days earlier. Sometimes not being #FOMO and playing safe may loose out some race; but still for a thrifty investor, this could be a better choice. To read more about my experience of the bridge, do head over to my read.cash post!…
Suddenly remembered I had a #BLURT account where it is a blank canvas to work on. And What better way to rant on a place empty for blood to spill there? 🙃 Especially today... of all days... 😒 #annoyed https://blurt.blog/hacked/@littlenewthings/usd-my-office-site-was-hacked (didn't post on BLURT channel because I realised it's been 5 months since the last post. Just wondering who is the moderator I can talk to)
Oh now this hacker is pissing me out. Something is in my website's file manager and it is jamming me from re-updating my office website.
I haven't binge watched a tv-series for a really long time after "The Chosen". This one "The Terminal List" is the first time ever I see Chris Pratt in a TV series! And guess what? He is also one of the producers. Seems that it got a back lash from the "big o' Holly" , this got me thinking how much truth was in this Amazon series, though we know that the ending never would have been like in the drama series that we all hoped for. Brings me so much memories of the people I…
This is actually very impressive! Being super busy with totally no time (nor the extra stash) to fix my hair at the salon , this nifty contrapment of less than $5 USD does the trick for a proper curl of the day. Just that got to sleep in a proper position on my back the whole night 🤣 My not be ideal for sloppy sleepers. But does the trick though. Minimal blow dry. No chemical needed. Just damp hair and this to make the magic happen.
It has been 10 years since I last had a proper pot of mussels; and yesterday was a blissful reason to have among friends and brothers and sisters in Christ for the pastoral farewell dinner for our dearly beloved retiring main pastor. The Two Sons of Starling Mall (seems to be) has been famous for the way they cook their mussels, and true enough we had a privilege to try it out. We had 2 types: Spicy Creamy sauce and Tomato creamy sauce. The peppery creamy with a tad bit of…
For the ladies who wondered how long the non-perm curls from my experiment, this picture was taken 7 hours after I "released" my curls at 7:30am before heading out to work. Just properly moistured (or oiled), mild damp hair and curl, then go to bed. So far so good, oddly this "contraption" has made me a less sloppy sleeper, at least the first 5 hours haha. At the end, this doesn't work effectively for hair above shoulder length. So there might be different contraption for…
Good morning noise-rs! So fast it is already Wednesday today! Are you having a proper meal to start the day full with energy? Mine I needed to pack with clean protein like eggs, which I have learnt that it is a good source to cleanse fatty liver as well. I also need to loose another 4kg to avoid overweight in Obesity chart. 😑 By the way, if I get this from the restaurants or salad bars, it will cost 2× to 3x more expensive. Got to get it from scratch now.
