Boss: I will make sure we organize a BBQ for the team!
NO! Can he just make sure I get to go home at 6pm?

When I Slack
Completed 山おんな壁おんな (Yama Onna Kabe Onna) last last week:
Very funny, yet not too low-class. Flying buttons, resting bosoms on the table, handbag with tits... >_<
Currently on 火舞黄沙.
Almost exactly the same cast as 金枝欲孽, also about people scheming against one another and revenge after revenge. Quite addictive lah. 32 episodes in all, I chiong!!! Because coming up next in the queue is...
Galileo.
I don't even know if it's nice, but I'll find out in due time *watches the % completed bar fill up*

Ajitei - Real and Fake Food
Met up with W and J again! It's been such a long time... and it's been a long time since I last saw open shops in a mall. Ya, lifeless, I know.
Carrefour@PS. Just stretch your hand in when you are thirsty. Wonder if there's a sensor above the entrance though.
Food time! Main course first.
My jaws were TIRED from eating this. It didn't help when I finished most of it. It's not soft like tofu by the way.
Raw salmon~~ *Slurp*
A slice of smooth and soft tofu covered in melted cheese. This dish is sinfully oily. We also had the potato version, which I preferred.
W had a bowl of salmon rice and J had some sushi with cheap ingredients, as we called it.
Desserts!
Really admire the Japanese for coming up with such realistic-looking fake food displays, which look better than the real thing sometimes. We wouldn't mind so much even if we had to queue for a table, can slowly think of what to eat! How come Singaporean restaurants don't do this?
Maybe because the portions we get change over time, cannot give us false hope.
A delicious-looking shop in Kappabashi Market, Tokyo.
As if all that weren't enough, we went to Daiso and looked at more FOOD! Bought 2 new Tohato snacks, but couldn't find the 黑糖 candy I had before... :( Passing criteria is a chunk of 黑糖 in the centre. Where... 在哪里 >_<

I'm *Almost* Affluent!
From the ST:
"Affluent S'poreans are mostly 'executive warriors'
THE affluent in Singapore are mostly 'Executive Warriors' - typically middle-aged male, like golfing, and travel frequently for business purposes, a survey by global research company Synovate has found.
The regional survey of 11 Asian countries, tracked 1,700 Singaporeans with a minimum monthly household income of $6,500 and grouped them under five main consumer segments - the Executive Warriors, the Work to Live's, the Gimme's, the HUMmers (Hungry, Urban and Mobile) and the Luxury Loyalists.
....
"
Minimum household income of *only* $6.5k is considered affluent? Their household got 1 person only right?

Time to Start Shopping!
Limited choices of overpriced earrings. Being ripped off by having to pay $2 PER HOOK (WTH!!!) for requesting to change the hooks to silver. A not-so-bad time when it's $1 per hook at SOC bazaar. Yes my ears have expensive taste, but I won't have anymore of this crap! Where can I buy cheap sterling silver hooks so I change them myself?
I came across a spree to buy jewellery components at Firemountain Gems.
The cheapest and simplest hook. USD1.49 for 5 pairs. If shipping isn't too ex, it would be worth it. *crosses fingers*
Browsed around and saw many interesting designs. Why not add more variety instead of hooks, hooks and hooks all the time?
Hinged earwire, USD1.60 per pair. Aiyoh so ex...
Hoop earwire, USD2.84 per pair. I dunno what I can hang on it, but for the sake of variety! Heartpain...
Decided against getting studs to save the trouble of working with glue.
$11.73 items + $1.44 shipping + $0.83 GST + $0.70 postpac + $0.50 postage = $15.20
Surprise #1: How come GST is 6.3%? How they count one? But since it's less than 7%, I'm fine with it heehee.
Surprise #2: Firemountain sealed the items very nicely in plastic packets. Must cut open one.
Surprise #3: After factoring the extra costs, my primary objective (the hooks) cost $0.61 per pair! Yay! But if anywhere is selling cheaper, I would like to know. And oh, fuck that pushcart in Bugis Junction for charging me $2 PER HOOK. Hope they have closed down already.
Should have asked not to use postpac. Don't think my items can get smashed since they are flat to start with. Unless they got twisted lah...
Can start expanding my collection now!
