Category: By @nGeline

This news is super frightening.. esp for some1 like me who likes peanut butter very much... Sigh... first is the milk powder + diary products.. now is peanut butter. I almost wanted to eat the peanut butter toast from Toastbox, but hengz I was very full at tat time....

Can u believe this?


Average of 4.3% wage increase based on a survey by Bloomberg, pic from Today. I realli dun tink so lor... We shud b smiling if we dun hv pay cut. Not even talking about pay rise. Faint. Stupid survey, n dun understand y we have this article. I m going to keep this for reference. Mayb can show it to HR or boss if they give me less than that. Hmmm.....
 


Is this store crazy?

Category: By @nGeline


Almost fainted when I saw this news article.. Is this owner crazy..?? With tis pic on the newspaper, I guess nobody dares to walk into their store unless the consumer is crazy too...

Tis realli tells us something too.. The things we buy r actually not yet scanned thoroughly by the authorities. Yes, they do spot-check, it may b too late to fine the store after the items were displayed for a few days. The damage would have been done!

As consumers, we beta b veri careful while buying groceries. It's for our own good.

 


Saw tis news in TODAY

Hope the article is not too small... I believe there r women who will donate their milk, but it's hard to believe that ppl actaully patrolise the restaurant for this weird cuisine.... cannot take it...
 


Is our lives getting better? or worse?

"Lives" may not b right to describe, mayb living standard shd b more correct? I dunno...

Saw tis news at asia1.com:
Sorry, you didn't have cancer
Having the reports swapped seems to be common as we saw in books, movies n news.. but continuing tis mistake till the breast were removed, I jus cannot believe it! Tis news triggered me into writing some thoughts which I have over the past few weeks.

Had lunch at Clementi on Friday, our usual since e shutter bus goes there every Fri.. Chang Kai and Chai Ping ordered hongkong mee, n it costs $4??!! I realli can't believe it. Realli tink tat they overcharge as hongkong mee normally cost $3 or $3.50. Drinks goes from $1 to $1.20. Same goes to petrol (can't complain much on tis as I HAVE to pay it no matter how exp it is...).

My colleague Stephanie told me her cab fare from work to Holland v costs $1 more than tat 2 months ago. Her utility bills were 1.5x more than tat of last few months, n she claims tat there's no diff in her usage of air-con etc... My cab fare from home to airport seems to be $3 more than a yr back. Another colleague of mine Anders says his rent increases from $1600 to $3500 (it was $4200 initially ~~>_<~~) for a 3 bedroom apartment. Even my sports channel subscription increases from $15.75 to $26.25 (havent exclude hubber club discount).

Everything is going up.. is living in Singapore getting harder? Even if we get salary increment of $300 for instance, tis is not enuff to cover all these living expenses.. we save lesser n lesser, still eat the same type of food, live e same lifestyle as usual.. Tis is realli depressing zZzzz...
 


Plastic surgery in Chinese stars!~

Category: By @nGeline
Many popular artistes r mentioned in this clip... I was shocked to see Jerry Yen's pics. He looks so diff n of crs so much charming now.. It's super obvious tat artistes like 大S, 小S n Jolin had gone thru plastic surgery. Personally, I dun tink Vivian Hsu did a plastic surgery. She doesn't look very diff from her teenager pic.

Enjoy ~~
