Of little men and smaller balls
To the little men who accidentally eaten my pork balls,
I know we are all hungry souls, who isn't? But please refrain from eating my balls. I only have two, I mean two packets of pork balls left in the fridge. And with you accidentally eaten the packet which I have left there for 3 months, I don't know how you're doing. I hope you're not allergic to expired food.
Moral of the story: The next time you wanna eat something, just ask. Maybe I'll be kind to give it to you. Don't steal, 'cause you don't know whether the food has expired.
Thank you for eating the expired pork balls. It has been a pleasure.
p.s. Don't bloody let me catch you, 'cause your balls are next on my most wanted list, after your head =)

Eulogy of a Saucepan
My name is Susie.
I'm was 29 inch, non-stick, brand new saucepan.
A few months ago, I was finally rescued back from my Clementi hardware shelter by these few really nice people. C-towners, I think i heard them call themselves. It was nothing short of a miracle. I thought I was saved
I thought I had found a good home, where people will be able to start using me for the reason I was created and cook sumptuous food with me. I thought my life would begin to have purpose.
Alas, I was wrong.
When I first started out, people found me a wonderful addition to the kitchen family. Even my new found buddies like Alex the hunky casserole bowl, Oiley the ever-helpful wok, and Mandy the cute small pot, were envious of me and my brand new non-stickylicious body.
I was popular even with those large beings with four funny yellowish appendages sticking out of their thick trunks. Humans. They oooohed and aaahed when they saw me, and often used me to cook .
Some of the them were really nice people, they would treat me good, wash me soon after use, and even dry me out in the sun.
And then, there were those that were not.
These creatures would not wash me after they have finished cooking, leaving me oily ( I'm not Oiley the wok?).
They would 'accidently' pour too much of their liquid sauce on me, causing me to overflow and stain my beautiful booty permanently. (sobz).
They would use sharp objects to scratch my interior, till i was ridden with ugly scars all over my once flawless non-stick skin ( i have a feeling bacteria is infesting one of these leisions even as i speak).
They would drop me on the floor and do inexplicable things to me(resulting in me being handicapped now, my handle now broken and extremely loose around the screw).
Now i'm being left alone in a corner of the kitchen, discarded, useless and ugly. = (
Why do these creatures do such horrible things to me? Will no one save me from my plight? Will all future occupants of this once happy home suffer the same fate?

T__T The day when laundry died
Ok..it didn't really died. Here's the story goes.
At least 2 blocks came over to our block to do their laundry. At that same day, many of our blk mates decided to do their laundry too. Well, to cut the long story short, the card reader threw tantrum after being abused for zillion of times. At least 3 washing machines went on strike by flooding the room. Hmm..lemme see, anything else?Nope, that's t. Anymore interesting account on this issue?
Well, it's good to throw tantrum sometimes. At least people will not take you for granted nor treat you like some push overs.

Challenge Noctiphobia
SL's nite cycling was quite an eventful nite, despite the short distance we covered compared to the one we had last year and to the ones that our block organises.
Photos can be found here.
The night started quite late, around 11 plus, as most of the SHearites took their time to assemble for the safety briefing and later preparing for move off. The first stop was King Albert Park's Macs, though we didn't go in to have a snack. The first stop was mainly to make sure things were alright and everyone was happy with their bikes. No much problems though, except for Edlina having some trouble with the gears, which refused to cooperate with her. After coaxing it while, we were on our way again.
The next stop was Adam Road Food Centre. A lengthy stop where most of us had a few drinks to quench our thirst and a quick snack before going to Newton Circus, our next stop. Just as we're about to leave, Xiaodi's brakes froze and the front wheel couldn't move. Most of the block had left for Newton, while Junhao called for the van to bring in the toolbox to fix the brakes. But the brakes just couldn't work and her bike was replaced. We took a while to catch up with the rest and by the time we caught up at Newton, the block was already feasting on the stingray.
After refuelling ourselves, it was off to Lau Pa Sat, but first to Elgin Bridge where we took a scenic group photo. A quick stop and off to the 'old market'. The dim sum stall offered a steaming hot food on a late night, while others decided to cool it off on the desserts. Just as we're about to leave, I saw the guys pushing the lorry. Guess it died but didn't really figure what happened to it.
Next stop, Kallang Indoor Stadium. Another stop where we had 100plus ( same as Macs) and rested a while. By now, you could see the tiredness in most of us, but all knew it going to end soon.
On the way to ECP, at the Kallang Macs, while trying to avoid an old lady, Xiaodi swerved her bike and fell, grazing her knees. Though it was just a slight injury and wanting to go on, the rest of us insisted she hop on the van to ECP instead. The action was over yet.
Along the ECP, Huihan had her fair share of the fall as she was trying to cycle without both hands.
It was relief when we reach ECP Macs and the morning breakfast waiting for us there sure help made the sleep and rest after that so much nicer.

IHG Ends...
It's been almost 3 months of games and sportsmanship from our fellow Shearites. Not forgetting our own C-towners in action in almost every sport. Thanks for all the blood, sweat and tears, the sacrifices you have made and the golds you have brought back. Thank you supporters who made time to come down to cheer our fellow Shearites on and to fill the courts and fields with our Sea of Orange and to show the meaning of Sheares Spirit.
To the best IHG I've had so far....
SHEARES HALL!!
To the best IHG I've had so far....
SHEARES HALL!!
It Begins At My Door
Aiyo....
Nowadays ah, you get so many pieces of paper sliding under your door, it's becoming like spam. Even the Hall office joins in the fray. First it was SWOC with their New Year Bak Kwa, then some chinese crap, then SP started also, with some notice on CNY dinner in between all of them. Now must look down when you open your door or you might slip on them. So be careful.
For today's gossip report, a fellow D-blocker was spotted taking the stairs and walking out of Blk C just before the dinner crowd hit the comm hall. One can only suspect what he was doing in the block. And it wasn't Gavin...
