Stone Age



Power outage

No, not because the bills weren't paid, they were re-wiring the place to me Batcave... ar i mean home.

They cut the power at 8.30am so i had to get up earlier to shower and blow dry my hair and all. So indeed they cut the power at 8.30 sharp.

Went down for breakfast with Mom which i have not done in ages.

In this day of age, all of us are spoilt by creature comforts(C.C) and most are run by electricity. To do the math..


C.C - Electricity= You Are Screwed


Well most of you must be thinking.

"You served your time in army where at times you are stripped of creature comforts, so why can't you survive without it?"


My answer to that,

I'm not longer in the army so why do i have to torture myself.
Tell me what you do without electricity at home?
You can't surf the net, watch Tv, play PS3,..etc

Of course i could read a book on creating alternate energy or just stare blankly at the wall with Lucky.

So, i grabbed my laptop and headed to the Starbucks at Marina Square to leech on the power there and to kill time.

I ordered the Green Tea Latte.



It may look like a cup of algae but it's a cup full of green tea greatness.

I stayed there for around 7 hours, talk bout free loading. My personal best timing there but it's nothing to be proud off. Spending the time there watching Hong Kong dramas and well 'bird-watching', if you know what i mean.

For lunch i had the Perry Chicken Pie. Woo man, it was good but $3.90 for it is a little over the top.

The bad thing bout staying there 7 hours alone, nobody will watch over your stuff, they say Singapore has a low crime rate, but seriously who can you really trust out there. Be safe than sorry.
Of course not being able to leave the table means, you can't go to the toilet. Yea it was a little miserable judging that you had a cuppa and it was cold but in the army, they do help train you a little for such situations.

Neither did i use a rubber band nor a water bottle.

Well i'll keep it to myself :P

Too bad May May couldn't join me, she's busy with school but well i can always entertain myself. Headed to do a little shopping and to search for a book at Borders.

Well you could say, it was a eventful time wasting day today.

That's all i got today.
