On my recent life
And so I have been at my first real job for 3 months already. I have been adapting well, and by that, I am saying that I am quite happy working there. The people there are still nice, and the amount of work is reasonable and manageable.
Except that I have an exceptional knack of screwing even the most stable OS in the market. So restoring, reinstalling and rebooting is a day-to-day 'routine' for me. Doing such things are very time consuming.The following comic is just ... self explanatory.

I am a groupie!!
I went to 陈绮贞's concert last Sat 29th September.
SUPER HIGH!!!!
high 到站在椅子上 loh First time I go concert high until like that. Jitao kee-xiao liao haha
The security also lost the plot when she came down the stage for '女明星' , she was swarmed by fans in the aisles. She sort of got astonished and waved back when thambie and I shouted '女明星!!' at her. After she went back up the stage, many fans overcame the security and formed at the stage front's barricades. I only joined them at the last encore hehe
She encore-d 5 times! FIVE times! Where got concert got so many encores one?? haha super high lah. The polaroid all the way on top was taken while standing on top of the first row seats, during the 5th encore.

Before going to the concert, I went to Museum of Toys right behind Raffles Hotel with Chiew Jingyi. Admission was pretty steep at $10, but it's a very niche concept museum anyway.
A scanned collage of polaroids.
Popeye toys.
Matchbox cars.And many more toys also. Their collection of marbles are certainly more exotic than mine haha
There are five levels of toys for you to explore, each level with a different theme and style.
Although some dismiss toys as child's play, you could see how mindsets and and society-at-large influenced the type of toys being made. Some toys are plain innocent, some toys showed the generation's aspiration towards space explorations, while some toys are demeaning and racist-motivated.

You can spend about one to two hours there, and there's a cafe at the basement. Quite a cool place to be, to explore and to relive old-times-sake.
