Update at Brisbane
Due to some internet connection problems over here, I have some problems loading photos up on my blog and facebook. But it is a fun trip so far albeit the food here is kind of expensive. It is so troublesome to try talking in their accent so that they can understand what you are talking about. Fair Enough. Their favourite phrase. Going to sunshine coast and strawberry farm tomorrow, hope that it is going to be a trip without spending much money. Tah...

Winter at Brisbane Day 1
Don't Move, Welcome to Brisbane    All photos below were taken at Gold Coast Surfers' Paradise. This is my first time going to beach in jeans and jacket.  The beach there is really magnificent and the wave is super strong.     Peace at Gold Coast  O ya, we received a parking fine on our first day at Brisbane and it is the first time I tried driving around in Queensland State. Going out soon, it is 8.48am over here now. We will be going to a cave, vineyard and maybe Seaworld or Wild n Wet. Clubbing too, cause it is Asian Night tonight. GTG. CiaoLabels: australia, brisbane, gold coast

无
心中的石头越来越沉重。在订机票的那一刻，美丽的憧景飘浮在我的脑海里。不过，那憧景已不再那样的壮光与美丽了。因为，我所乘坐的那艘小船已不能承担那石头的重量。而，这时的大海四周空无一船，只有在天空上不停啼笑我的老鹰与我相伴。好盲然，好无助。

父亲节快乐
我沿着那段弯曲的小路行驶着，脑海里一片的空白。引擎的声音，风的嘘声与阳光的照射都变成了哭喊，埋怨与阴暗。我两眼放空和双手僵硬的握着驾驶盘，安全的抵达了目的地。我下了车，走向那与道路平行的海岸。沙子与海水的交界处吞没了哭喊，埋怨与阴暗。就在这时，一粒足球滚着滚着轻轻的碰了我赤裸的右脚。我弯下身子想把球捡起，却听见有人喊着：“爸爸，爸爸。”。那把声音越来越大声，我抬起了头，看见了一个小小的身影慢慢的逼近我。看着看着，那名小男孩长的酷似我儿时。“爸爸，爸爸，快把球踢过来。”：那小男孩喊着。我愣了一会才回过神来。原来，就在我行驶时的当儿，十年已过，我已成了一名爸爸。
或许十年后的今天，这已成了事实。不过，今时今日，我不是故事里的主人翁，而是那名喊着爸爸的小男孩。父亲节快要来临了，所以我想在这里对我爸爸说的是父亲节快乐，这二十二年来您辛苦了，谢谢您所付出的这一切。
就在你看完这post之后，记的对你的父亲说声谢谢或父亲节快乐哦。 Labels: dad, daddy, father, happy father's day

Food Food Part 2 (Japanese Food)
More food photos. They are all taken recently at some Japanese restaurants in Singapore. First up.
Waraku Pasta
I met up with a friend of mine to go to the IT show. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, we arrived at city hall pretty late. With an empty stomach and after considering other places for dinner, we decided to pop in to this particular restaurant which is located at Marina Square. Actually, my mind was filled with buffet at that time, cause I was too hungry. But, due to the lack of time. No choice, sucks thumb, have to eat at an ala carte restaurant. Even though I was feeling really hungry at that time, I can only describe the pasta in one sentence. Do not be deceive by the looks of the display sets at the glass panel.
My friend's Beef Stew Pasta. The main point of the pasta is beef, yet the beef fails miserably in taste.  My Katsu don minus the rice plus the pasta. Average only. 
Hoshigaoka(Lido)
My lunch on saturday, before my aunt starts her shopping spree. The restaurant is located at the level where you have to go into Isetan in order to reach that level.
 Soft Shell Crab Roll  Salmon Ju  Fugu(Puffer Fish) This small plate cost $11++.  Oyster  Unagi Roll  My Cha Soba Set 
 Some kind of shellfish which I don't eat.  I think we ordered too much and ended walking out of the restaurant on a very bloated stomach. The unagi on the unagi roll is really delicious. And according to my mum and aunt, the shellfish thingy tastes really good. The most disappointing dish is the fugu. They don't serve raw which is kind of disappointing and I guess it is still difficult to find fugu sashimi in Singapore. Overall, the food there is pretty good. Luckily, I went with my mum and aunt. Or else, the bill of $116 plus for 3 pax is kind of expensive for a student like me.
10 more days. And I will be heading to Brisbane. Yeah, so happy. Especially, it is winter over at Down Under. A good friend of mine will be heading to Melbourne too, but one day earlier than me. Hope both of us will have fun over there even though we will be at different cities of Australia. Have to go down to Australia Embassy tomorrow to amend an error on my visa.

Food Food
Been going out everyday and today is the only day that I am at home in the evening time. Furthermore, in about a week time, I will not be in Singapore for 12days. Going Brisbane to visit my cousin. We will be renting a car and drive while at Australia. Before, I go Australia, I will post some photos that I took recently. And today will be on Korean Food.
Hamsang(Novena Square 2)
This restaurant has an open concept, so people are able to see what you are having when they pass by the restaurant. As usual in most Korean/Jap restaurant found in Singapore, most of the waiters/waitresses are not korean/japanese. Therefore, you can forget about asking them which dishes is better.
반찬/Side Dishes  비빔밥/Bibimbap 
Auntie Kim(Thomson Road)
This restaurant serves authentic korean food and all of the waiters/waitresses are koreans except for one. I guess the non-korean is there to help those who cannot understand korean. So far, it is one of the best korean food I had in Singapore.
 김치찌개/Kimchi Stew  반찬/Side Dishes  For those who never had korean food before, the side dishes are always given free and they are all free flows.

Do Singaporeans Dress Badly?
How do you define fashion? For me, as long as you are feeling comfortable and confident with what you are wearing. It is fashion to me. What is Singaporeans' fashion sense? Take a walk along Orchard Road or any HDB area, the most common attire is berms and the ever popular T-shirt. This attire applies to any ages, race, religions, languages and gender. Because, we are all Singaporeans and we are following what our national pledge says. We pledge ourselves as one united people, regardless of race, languages and religions. Therefore, our attire is the same too. However, there is nothing wrong with wearing berms and t-shirt. Nobody will be telling you that what you are wearing is fashionable or unfashionable. There is only this term called appropriate or inappropriate.
If people want to compare our dressing sense to other countries, compare us with countries that have the same weather as us. My teacher was telling me that when summer arrive in Germany, you can see many people tanning in nude. This is because, out of a year, 8months in Germany is winter. That is why, Singaporeans don't have such a habit of tanning.
Let's talk about a nearby country which many mandopop lovers want to visit one day. Taiwan. From, tv shows or Taiwan drama, they may appeared well dressed. Because why? It is all for show. Most Taiwaneses also prefer to deck out in berms and t-shirt during summer time. But, the only difference is that, most of the girls over there apply at least some foundation before going out. I guess their percentage of girls who apply make up is the same as Singaporean girls who don't apply any make up. However, this cannot be blame, Singapore is too humid and the make up will smudge over time.
My grooming procedures before I go out. First, brush my teeth. Next, apply sunblock if I am going out in the day. Thirdly, wear my clothes and blow dry my hair follow by applying clay and if I am lazy on that day, I will just wear a cap. Next, go to the toilet to make sure that the hair is okay. Lastly, before going out, have a cup of water or fruit and go to the toilet to look at the mirror again. Finally, I can go out now. All is done in 30mins time. Haha.
Next, Flip Flops. My Filp Flops  Mr Brazilian  Mr Warrior  Mr Beachy  Mr White
Are you able to name anyone you know who don't own a flip flop? I mean it is appropriate to wear flip flops. Unless you are wearing pants with flip flops? Flip flop goes well with berms much better than wearing leather shoes with berms. My flip flops have travel with me to many places in Singapore and other countries and I am not embarrass to show them to the public. There is nothing wrong with wearing them around.  I hereby conclude that there is nothing wrong with Singaporean Dressing Sense  If you dare to defy me, You will get it from me!
Next up, pajamas. I go OMG when I saw this. Going out in pj is way too comfortable for me as a dressing code to go out. It is a no no for me to go out in pj unless I am paid to do so. haha. If little children were to wear pj out for some late night shopping, you will think that they are so cute. But if I caught an adult wearing that, I will go like eeeeek and ask the person not to come out and scare people cause it is not halloween yet.
A lastly photo of me in pj. Not one but two because it is Great Singapore sales now. Buy 1 get 1 Free!
The last time I wore pj is for my swimming lesson when in P3. So, the pj looks super small and tight to me.  Pajamas is for sleeping. Not for going out.  Revert Back to my own self.  For those who are wondering why I am doing this post.
It's the season of Great Singapore Sales and Nuffnang is proud to present a blogging contest like no other! For the first time, we would like to hear your take on the fashion dos and don'ts of our very own Singaporeans.
Do Singaporean s have their own unique sense of style? Are you one of those who groom yourself meticulously before you step out of home? Or are you one of them who wear what you sleep in to trudge down Orchard Road, the most prestigious shopping district in Singapore?
This is your chance to be a 'fashion critic'!!!!
All you need to do is to state your views on the topic
