My Inheritance

It took me almost 3 mths of endless search n finally I found it. To my biggest shock when I open the tight lid box, I found not just one, but two manual Nikon SLR cameras!


Here is part of the collection which includes some lens I managed to find so far.

The lens are tinted with mould. I don't know how great the damage is or whether the cameras could still be used (I tested the shutter... so far they are still ok). I will repair these cameras or try to retain its original condition no matter how costly it is cos it means so much.

Mountain Tortise VS Mountain Tortise

Here is a chat a few days ago with JR, one of my die-die ppl(Haaa!) I wish I had known her much earlier or even during my poly days. We would have so much fun=)

Definition Of Bukit Timah Hill
JR : " Wah, you very courageous. This sat going to conquer Singapore's highest mountain."

Me(Laughing) : " Spore got no mountain lah... That one not even a hill... Its juz a big lump of sand and rocks."

Definition Of Mountain Tortise
Me : Btw JR, is Bukit Panjang Plaza near West Mall? Are they both in walking distance? I have nv been to Bukit Panjang Plaza. How is it like?"

JR : "Hey, U very shua Ku leh. Spore so small n u nv been to Bukit Panjang Plaza. (JR lives in Bukit Batok n she is a big patron of West Mall). N she goes on n on talking abt West mall.

Me : " JR, u know where Hougang Mall is?"

JR (In a very surprised tone) : " Hougang got mall meh?"

Me (Laughing) : " Look who is Shua Ku... U nv heard of Hougang Mall... at least I know of BBP.

JR (In Mock Anger): " Fine. Educate me then."

Anyway, it's fun know ppl fr all over S'pore gathering together at a centralized office n labelling ourselves according to the region we support.

In the final note, Dear Miss JR has advised me to throw bananas to ward off any monkey attacks. Hmmm

WHY syndrome

She comes in n walks with an air of gracefulness, yet haughty looking. Her heels click to a stop. In the midst of her well-pressed suit or auntie 3 piece suit, she folds her arm n glares at u. Oblivous to the profound crease on her forehead which does injustice to the months of hard spa treatment n botox jabs. Her lips pouted n instantly, u know the word that is hanging on her lips... Open sesame n she rattles a string of WHY WHY WHY...

Yeah... She is the lady boss. The one even some male counterparts stay away. The one u wish u could hate but possess some kind of aura to make u respect her. She's the one that carries some kind of invisible whip that makes some ppl jump out of their seats with her advances.

In fact 97% of her questions r peppered with WHY n rejecting others ideas. U wish she could stop with all her WHYs n NOs...( Why is there no outcome? Why do u hav to do things in this way? Why is everyone so slow? Why are u sick? - Imagine answering that when u are having a throat infection. Why is there an overspending? NO... I believe things should be done in an orderly step n I do not tolerate any wild ideas)

There r many reasons y the Lady Boss uses WHY. Here goes :
1) Her oestragen level is fluctuating... Beware!
2) She feels insecure
3) She is just basically trying to a boss

Update as of 1 June 2011
YX can relate to the Why lady boss - being in a highly male dominated industry, ladies got to prove their worth. Fortunately, YX does not go to work in suits but in very comfy dark jeans, is neither graceful, possesses a relaxed n listening manner n she asks How =)

Its you that makes the environment...
