A ride in the Flyer

On Saturday, we decide to take a ride on the Singapore Flyer.
The ride takes about 30mins and you get a bird's eye view of our island.
Each air-coned capsule is rather big and spacious. Think we had about another 8 people in the one that we were in. The skies we a tad bit grey when we started out on our ride, but it cleared up quite a bit along the way. The ride was interesting, but its a no-no for anyone fearful of heights! :P

A view of the Merlion from the Flyer.

Oh wow! There's Popeye Chicken here! Dun need to go all the way to the airport for this now. The biscuits are real yummy, esp when they are freshly baked!

Dun you miss these?

Goodbye planty :(

Some days back, we said goodbye to one of our pretty plants. :(
We had bought it for the house during the CNY and it had been doing pretty well for some time, blooming nice pretty flowers often.
That was till it was struck and attacked by stinky white files, who were sucking the life out of it. :( And leaving a mess behind at the same time.
Why.. these *@#$%&*! files!! *shakes fists at them*

Went online looking for a cure, but it seems like the infestation was in a rather bad stage already. It wasn't really apparent at a glance, just that some of the leaves were looking rather limp but when you looked under the leaves, ewww.. you could see the colonies! Gross...

Oh well, so Mr D decided that the plant had to go, less it infects all the other ones that we had. And its pretty gross knowing there's an infested pot of plant in your house as well. :S So... bye bye planty! :(

Planty in its better days

Another last look of it in its best

Horton Hears a Who

Today we watched Dr Seuss' Horton Hears a Who.
I think its really enjoyable.
Funny and heartwarming. :) Great way to end a work week!

Here's my entry for I.F this week.

Lately, the malls and shops here have been having lots of post holiday sales.
So when you step into one, you get a load of these
posters, signs and not to mention temptations leaping out at you. :P hahahha....
So here's my take on it all.
