Great. For the first 14 seconds I was happy. “Finally! I have something to look forward to in a few years time!” 37 milliseconds later. “WTH!”.
Women ‘happiest at 28′
Researchers discovered women feel most confident and happy with their love life and body shape shortly before they reach 30. It is also the period in their life when they enjoy the best sex – but the happiness is relatively shortlived. Because by the time they have turned 30 they start worrying about growing old and developing grey hair and wrinkles.

I was supposed to meet my friend this afternoon for lunch at 1230pm but because of some miscommunication I thought it was 12pm. Anyway to cut the long story short, my friends got there at 1.15pm. -_- Instead of baking myself in the sun or touring the only decent store – Cold storage for 1 hr and 15 minutes, I went for a manicure.

VOIS is having a weekly promotion, deluxe Manicure at $12 (Originally $25) till end of this week, and that was just what I needed! It was awesome.
What is good!
- Friendly service!
- Enjoy a relaxing massage on the massage chair!
- Choice of coffee or tea!
- Good manicure skills!
- Extremely good hygiene! [They change their filers and buffers for every new customer! The staff asked if I will be coming back for their services in the future, I answered probably no because of the location (definitely not because of their service). Instead of snubbing me, the staff then asked if I want to keep the filers and buffers (for free!) since I will not be back. How awesome!]
- Promotional price at $12 is awesome! The usual price at $25 for full (not express) manicure with simple hand massage was good too!
Conclusion: If not for the location, I will definitely be back!
A pleasant and surprising gift from God. Thank you Lord! I am quite bilingual after all!
My sis just said that I’m losing my waist. GULP.
I am going to make SbR earn some allowance for me just like how CW’s blog earned her first $1 (at least it’s a good start).

But the thing I dread is having SbR called somethingboutrenes.moi-nonpl.us. Sound gross? Yes.
Maybe I should give it a try before I start paying for a decent host address. But some things will remain and that’s Somethingboutrenes.
I, like what my sister said, am beyond words and am shocked.
R.I.P. Michael.

My sister took after me. She became Sore throat Yirene during/after FOC. And guess where she is heading out to. Karaoke. Yes you heard me.
SbR’s opinion and review on iNo Mobile is valued (assuming they will continue doing so after this post) by Foresight Technologies (owner of iNo Mobile).

I was utterly surprised to see SbR’s review on Foresight Technologies website. It was flattering to know that our review is taken seriously. However, as a good reviewer one has to present the most honest and objective reviews to his/her audience.
So here’s my follow up review.
After-sale Service Review:
The phone was faulty right after purchase and I was furious. Adding to my misery, their service centre wasn’t at the most convenient location.
However, to my surprise, their service staff was sincere, apologetic and really understanding. In the most efficient manner possible, they replaced my phone without any questioning and had it checked and tested on the spot. [I couldn’t bear to display my usual consumer-from-hell-look after meeting their staff.]
After-sale Product Review:
My granny loves it! iNo Mobile is easy to use, fuss free and extremely elderly friendly. My granny even bought a pouch to protect it! The once technology-fearing/detesting granny actually likes her phone this time round.
Key Learning:
When service failure occurs, this is the only opportunity to convert a wrathful consumer into a loyal-potentially repeat consumer.

I’m bored and in a bad position.
Too bored to stay home, too broke to head out.
SUCKS.
My mum uses MSN and Skype. She owns a Facebook account. Now she owns an iPhone.
My mum is cool. Sometimes I wish she is just old and fuddy-duddy.
Hmm. Maybe not.

“Troubled banks raising pay to retain top talent: Report”
“Bailed-out RBS to pay chief $23m: Report”
The bankers won’t learn. What is freaking wrong with them?
Yes yes. The poor bankers received lesser amount of bonuses because of all the regulation the US government placed on them. Oh poor thing. While thousands and millions are losing job because of their misdeeds, banks decided to up their basic salary to retain these supposing “top bankers”. WTH. Isn’t it time (for the bankers) to focus on the long term? Focusing on how they can get this economy going (in a right direction) instead of mulling over which bank/company is offering them a fatter compensation package?
I’ve picked up badminton again (after about 6-7 years). I was once in my secondary-school-class team. HAH. Once. But. I’ve never made it to the quarter finals. HAHA. This is going to be part of my new exercise regime.
Going to sign my life away at HDB. A debt-ful life awaiting. Cheers.
