Gang of Marina Barrage

Image
members of Big Five "Gang of Marina Barrage".. i wonder what they will look like in 10 years, taking the same style of photos. Marina Barrage, situated near one end of marina south... good education spot for kids... it has a gallery on Singapore water resources... a demo on how the dam and reservoir worked when there is a flood or high tide. the view on the topmost floor (aka roof) was scenic. the skyscrapers from shenton way, Singapore flyer, esplanade (aka durian building) and the vast ocean... not to mention the soon-to-be-ready IR at marina bay (aka Sands). prepare a set of clothings for the kids next time... there are water fountains (like those at bugis junction).

best prawn mee in Singapore...

for once, i thought whitley prawn noodles at old airport road was the best. i now give this vote to hwa kee big prawn noodles at cambridge food centre... i was complaining to my wife before i reached this place (really not easy to find)... "so ulu, you sure it's really so nice?!"... H-W-A K-E-E proves me wrong... i tried soup mee $5... soup was tasty and not too strong... prawn damn good and fresh... you dont feel the MSG after drinking the whole bowl... i think no MSG... just bear with the disorganise couple preparing the food... heard that their dry one also damn good... and most people go for $10 and $15 bucks... catch them early 7.30am to 2pm... queuing was liked 30 mins for me on weekdays and less crowded timing... psst, a lot of exec went for the $15 bucks bowl...

sleepwalking or memory fading?

i still remember this incident vivialy. it was saturday midnight (or sunday morning?!)... i was sleepin' around 2am after ironing clothes and watching movie 'japan sinking'. my little girl got up around 3am... kicking and grumbling as usual... she wanted to sleep on our bed... the next moment... i woke up and found myself at our sofa in the living room!! around 6.30am... my usual working day wake-up timing... sleepwalk?! i told my wife but she said that she saw me going out when our girl slept on our bed... i had absolutely no impression... geezzz... memory lapse or really sleepwalk? PS: our new sofa was a good 'bed'... :P
