Weekend was good. Movies night on Saturday with hubby in our basement. Watched 7 Seconds and Sahara.Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:How was your weekend?
MG
Then on Sunday, a friend called for SOS. Needed hubby to help hook up their amplifier. Hubby spent FIVE HOURS!!!! there. No, no....not that my hubby is incompetent. I mean, please, our "system" is more complicated.
I don't know why hers is strange. She had a really old Bose system. She wants it hook up to her TV/VCR. Hubby got everything working but with a little hitch. She is talking about part 2 this Sunday. She wants hubby to get her a DVD player too. I did tell her to buy it herself because she would know what she wants and all that, but oh well *shrugs shoulder*. -
OK, I've gotta go do the Sleeping Beauty thing now.
Buh-bye, peeps!!

No damage. Didn't cost me over C$12. I am a poor shopper but just don't take me to a video store. I can get lost.

Yipppeee........I'm sure you are going to be pleased.Originally posted by Rhonda:OOohhh!! One more week and I'll get my IELTS results!!

All I can say is, your hubby and you had better be getting a free meal out of this!Originally posted by littlestream:Weekend was good. Movies night on Saturday with hubby in our basement. Watched 7 Seconds and Sahara.

At the very least, I hope your friend appreciates the time that your husband has spent helping her with the amplifier installation. Was it another Singaporean?

Waaaah... you must have a very 'switched off' job to be able to go shopping in the middle of the work day.Originally posted by littlestream:Oh, personal hygiene stuff that are ON SALE. No damage. Didn't cost me over C$12. I am a poor shopper but just don't take me to a video store. I can get lost.

Lunch today comprises a can of Campbell's 'Chunky' New England clam chowder (mmmmmm....) and the usual turkey and cheese sandwich. Nothing to write home about.
Have you eaten yet?

I'm wondering... are we distant cousins or something?? -
how to make clam chowder more yummy?
you melt a HUGE knob of butter into it -
Huh? Which forum? Club 30 ah?Originally posted by Rhonda:Y'know, MG, littlestream, a lot of Singaporeans cannot debate graciously!
Look at the awful turn a few of our recent threads has taken.
I enjoy discussing both sides of the coin in issues that we raise up here. But to many, as long as you're expressing a different opinion, they cannot stomach it, and they start to get pretty personal.
But I am also guilty leh. I am not very good with debates. I do not like or perhaps cannot handle also, confrontation. In my case, I just clamp up. But I respect people's views. And if I don't agree, I usually do not add or say too much. Maybe I'll share my opinion once or twice but after that, I become an audience. Nonetheless, I think/feel people who come on too strongly with their opinions, I am not talking about those who are opinionated, know? I'm talking about those who force it down your throats. I mean people can be obstinate with their believes, and that's fine. But don't force it on me. I think mutual respect, bah. That is important lah.
Errr....so can kaypoh, kaypoh or not? Which thread ah? -
they know that i'll give the ISO auditors a hard time... a really REALLY hard time
i mean, hey! gotta make them earn their pay right? -

Well, this Sunday's itinearary is to meet at a dim sum place for lunch before heading to her house. I've told hubby not to take for granted and be prepared to pay our share.
The answer is Malaysians. -
I was at the bookshop too and drooling over the hard cover Da Vinci Code book but resisted. I can get lost in a bookshop too but when you have family obligations (we are providing some kind of monetary support to S'pore and Melbourne) and dependents, one learns to buy the "needs" rather than the "wants". Anyways, about a month ago, my church had an ang moh speaker for that Da Vinci message. One kind soul loan me the DVD but sadly, I am bad. I've not watched it yet. I should really.Originally posted by the Bear:i am lost in a bookshop and also in Sim Lim

Oh, Bear, you either need a housekeeper or a wife. To get you organized on personal needs stuff.
Yesterday's message at church was really good. It's about relationship. -
i'm a dude.. as far as dudes go, i'm still a wreck
my car is slowly becoming a mobile trash bin
and it would be nice to have someone to clean up for... but until then, it's easier being a slob
oh, Mrs Bear, where are you hiding -
What is ISO?Originally posted by the Bear:i'll get them from the cheapo shop in clementi

Oh, Bear.........if you applying anything on your face or hair, you don't want something too cheap lah. Wait, don't know what crappy chemical they have in there, may either give you rash or doing some invisible damage. Just my opinion lah.
Have you heard of all these imitation stuff? There are imitation eggs, soya sauce, blah, blah..... -
Nite nite, again. Sleep well.Originally posted by Rhonda:OK... this is it... nite nite!
