My PC Was Totally Down

Thought That was time to replace my old Pc. It was totally down, I found that my hard disk was down, the motherboard down, the Dvd-Rw down, even if my keyboard down as well!
I force to buy a new one! After many places price checking, finally found one the really suit my needs! But it was really $$$$$! Anyway, this time I choose don’t use the D.I.Y. Pc and bought an Acer; it was good and saving lots of my time to install everything!I was facing incompatible software’s problems! Hence I force to buy some new versions of software I am using regularly! Ouchi! $$$$ spending again!

These were my dished of the day. Hm…seems I only able to cook limited dished! Haahaa! Must arrange more time to go through my cook books that I seldom read them! Haahaa!

That was great many guests come to us.I would like to wish everyone have a best 2009 Chinese New Year / New Year, and getting all your dreams come true!Singaqpore's porpular dough figurine artist May Toh also in the event as well.Passing by Orchard, the crowd was slightly lesser than normal on this Saturday, maybe people was really busy buying Chinese New Year stuffs the day before Chinese New Year Eve (Saturday).Some busking artist was there.The most crowd attraction busking artists: the percussion theme.It was really full of people stopped on the whole walking way to watch the percussion performance.

Chinese Paper Cutting Preparations

I was ‘so free’ during the whole week due to no booking for event. You sure I am so free? You are wrong! As an entertainer, a professional artist and entertainer which not fake artist who just passing time during the working hour.

One of the thousand ‘must do’ things was some Chinese paper cutting demo booking, so that was lots ‘behind stage job’ to be done before the actual day. That was a lots for paper for me to design, prepare and pre-cut! Ouchi!Guess what I think now? I was thinking I just sit back and relax and the $$$ will come automatically! Heehee!

Let me have a extra big size and high cholesterol pork chop to release my high pressure! Hia hia hia! It was 15cm x 10cm and the thickness was 4cm which I bought from NTUC supermarket and cook by myself! Hia hia hia!

Scene at NTUC Super Market at Ang Mo Kio Hub

6 more days later will be Chinese New Year (27th Jan id Chinese New Year Eve), many people was rushing to buy their stuffs for Chinese New Year Celebrations, hence many supermarket was crowded with people.

I went NTUC Super Market at Ang Mo Kio Hub, this is one of the biggest NTUC Super Market in Singapore.That was so crowded almost every since last weekend. Nothing wrong with the crowded place, just do not like the attitude of many shoppers which believe they are the king or queen which have the priority park their trolley anyway, they believed they have the full priority to walk all the way; they no need to give way to anyone, but everyone must give way to them to walk.I force to walk to this ‘road’ which is madly ‘traffic jam’ to reach the rack that having the goods I wanted to buy. I have to wait the auntie couple in front me to move further then I can move a bit. Suddenly I felt my butt hit lightly by a trolley behind me, that was an auntie doing that, she wanted me to move ahead, what a rude way! I did not get angry, I just seen one of such Singaporean who acts in such a style, just like the scene commonly happened in the MRT.I grab the last pack of gingers! It sold out everyday before evening!Chinese New Year Cake! Which similar to Christmas’ log cake.

Madam Tang’s Chinese Knotting Demo

Passing by North Point Shopping Mall near Yishun MRT, found Madam Tang doing her Chinese Knotting making Demonstration down there with the Chinese New Year Promotion activities.I know Madam Tang through events, thought about 10 years or even longer, she’s an art and craft teacher as well.Madam Tang, a local Singaporean was very talented because she can do so many different kinds of art and crafts like Chinese Paper Cutting, Chinese Dough Figurine, Wire Crafts, Chinese Calligraphy and etc. (See http://www.talentsdata.8m.com/tangsart.htm)
She passed me a photo about her Origami demonstrations for an event at Japan last year while I met her yesterday. Yup, she did travel to other country to present her art.Just grab one ‘give away sample’ in the event from her.
I would say, after 18 years in this trait, I had known many kinds of artistes and peoples, that was one of the interesting stuffs I found in my life. Heehee!
