A long weekend, Who ate the missing meatball?????

Just recovered from a long weekend, thanks to National Day! As usual, weekend is alway short and weekdays are damn long. Has been waking up early morning 6 plus to do some morning run on saturday and sunday, now my legs are like jelly.


On monday, we have steamboat+bbq for dinner at my "ex-darling"'s place. It was a sumptuous and delicious meal with tonic herbal soup base and all kind of meat except lamb and beef. Sadly never took any pictures of the steamboat. After we have finish the steamboat, i was so full and guess what there is still round 2, the dessert.


My fuel tank is just 1300cc, and it is expected to perform at 3000cc. Just a matter of time, the engine will overhaul............Anyway, before the dessert, we had the cake cutting session whereby we just finish half of the cake and give the other half to the neighbour

Continue..........

After returning empty handed and a confused state of mind, i went to search the online shop for info. There is also a limited stock of red GT-R going for auction in SG site as well as UK, well i must said that Mr. Chua sure know what to collect.

As for the EZ devastor, it is out of stock currently, will restock in Nov. So i continue to search around, pondering over which one to buy. Cindy did mention a toy shop at China Square Central called U-Toys which sell transformers. So i decided to check with them on the 2 items and found out that EZ Devastor will be re-stock in Nov while the GT-R will not be restock. However, there is one customer who consigned U-Toy to sell his GT-R and straight away, i reserved the set and closed the gift hurting session.

All i can said after this whole event is "Getting Mr. Chua's present is never easy, however it is like attending a lesson where you will learn new knowledge along the process." Good job, BAC Pte Ltd!

First Post in 2009

Hihi,

Seriously, super long time no posting. When i try to recall what have i been doing all these while, i cannot recall them. I have no answer to why has i not been blogging etc. Anyway, 2009 first post is here:

Recently, Cindy and i have been out hurting for Birthday gift for one of our best buddy, Mr Chua, and we realised that it is a big challenge getting a present for him. Either the present he wanted is out of stock or they are limited edition. Our first stop is Suntec Centre 3rd floor, at the toy shop outside the Cinema. Based on the info provided by our undercover, we started looking for the EZ 7 Piece Devastor from the Transfromer 2 movie: Revengue of the Fallen.

We look high and low and a few pieces of the Devastor model and we counted that there is only 6 pieces altogether but the info is 7 pieces. This leaves us clueless as to where is the missing piece, is the info reliable? So we left the shop empty handed with the idea of going to China Square Central as our next shop. But before that, we stopped by the Toy-Us-R to find out more and i called my undercover and found out that we are looking at the wrong version of the devastor. So with the updated info, we managed to recruit 3 pieces of the devastor @ $9.90 per piece.

Next, we headed for China Square Central. Suprisingly, it was crowded on a sunday afternoon. An ongoing FLEA market was taking place there. We came across 1 particular stall with a lady, she sell the 7 pieces devastor and i thought "Ho Say, mission accompanished" but i was wrong. The piece she quoted us was 2 fold the original and i goes like "WTF, you think i am a carrot is it?" and i left the stall without asking for more info. In my mind, i was going like "Siao ah, you daylight robbery is it, Si Zha Bo, @##$$%$^%##@". Finally, we left without any luck.

Our next stop is Sunshine Plaza Gundam shop opps Victor's Dim Sum Restaurant. I went in in hope to get a good gundam for Mr Chua since i cannot get his Transformer but my mind just got blank regardless of which gundams i am looking at. My state of mind at the moment is "Totally no confidence at all as to the most sutiable gundam".

[Ai yo, Mr Chua, y you collect so many gundams, make ppl's life difficult but cannot blame you ah.......why i itcy backside, go and get gundam for you]

At that point in time, i give up and call me undercover again and she provided me with another piece of new information. The 25th Anniversary Transformer Alternity Optimus-Prime GT-R Red Colour. Well, what can i say, getting the GT-R is not much of a problem but what make it so difficult is the RED. I found black, blue but never red. And the best part is Mr Chua has already search the whole of S'pore except Suntec for the piece and to no avail. Hello, if Mr. Chua cannot find it, how can we find it. Of coz, we left for home empty-handed.

To be continue.....
