Random Ramblings

The reason why I'm so free to write a post is because my Goddess is no longer hogging the computer do to her Paper Polly stuff now that he latest collection is out and she can take a mini-break from all the photoshopping!

Please do check it out, and show some support by purchasing some things there.


If you haven't already realised (that's cos you didn't visit the shop enough!), Paper Polly is on its way of getting revamped.

From the old layout of this, which is quite kiddish and girly..

Unfortunately she forgot to capture a screenshot before the revamp for keepsake

To this - something more stylish and user-friendly (i hope)


Even the cover pic of the collection has been changed, if you realised. No more kageishinobunjitsu.. or whatever you call that Naruto's trick to multiply himself. So what do you think of the new layout and design? Better or worse off than the first one?

Anyway, more revamp works (phase 2) is going to come. So do stay tune.

Back to the main topic "random ramblings".

My Goddess is an adventurer when it comes to food. She likes to try new food, and especially fast food. That's cos it's easier to keep track of the new menu, and doesn't cost her a bomb to try.

And so she had the spicy mcnuggets. 



Her take on this? 2 out of 5. It tasted like those otah fishball kind. Spicy, but not tasty. And as for the Honey Chipotle, it wasn't anything fanciful too. A disappointment in fact. To think that McDonald is so cunning to make you upsize so that you can try their shaker fries!?

Moving on to something more tasty and exciting. Bibimbak from Harbour Front Food Junction!


This is authentic Korean food! Look at the 'liao' - so generous and juicy! Every bite you take is the 'liao', cannot taste the rice at all. Even the rice is those sushi kind of rice! The reason why it's 4 out of 5 is cos my Goddess kena LS straight after this meal cos the egg was too raw for her stomache. Good stuff, cannot bluff~

Just a few days ago, my Goddess wanted to reward herself and bought herself Koi, the bubble tea that she long wanted to try but never had the chance to as the queue is like forever very long.

And so queue up she did, at TPY Central. Luckily, it wasn't as long as expected - about 10 minutes?

Look at the interesting queue no that she's gotten
Which can be totally read upside down too!


Koi is really making big business. 689 customers and counting at 8pm in just one outlet!


My Goddess bought the Green tea with pearls, 90% sugar. The pearls were small and chewy but my Goddess wished they were bigger so it's nicer to chew. Even though it's 90% sugar, she didn't find it sweet at all. So guess the 0% sugar will be totally bland? My Goddess couldn't see what the hype was about. Maybe she didn't get the signature milk tea with bubbles that's why.

Finally, have you heard of a pack of chips that costs $5.50? That's the cost of a meal!


Again, my Goddess wanted to reward herself for being so disciplined with food and gym (so ironic right) that she decided to get herself a bag of chips. She was deciding between this pack and the tube of Pringles (mozzarella cheese flavour) which costs $2 plus. Thinking that this costs only $1.75, she decided to get this. But when she was at the cashier and was asked for $5.50, she got a shock! But there was another man in front of her who haven't left yet. So feeling paiseh, she decided to pay for it. She could have changed it for some other chips if no one was around!

You must be thinking that this is good stuff right, since it costs so much. But alas no! It's one of the lousiest chips my Goddess has eaten. It's totally hard, and very salty! 

And what's up with the 'All Natural' text man? You mean we've been eating fake potatoes all along? Or this chip is naturally made with a woman peeling and frying each and every piece? Come on, chips are already not healthy snacks. Are you trying to make the consumer feel better by getting to consume 'natural' chips.

So much for marketing, packaging and hence the jack up in costs.
