I like this!

My friend's rendition of Da Vinci's angel.

Really like her work.

Ramen Monster

I had my lunch at Ramen Monster at Novena Square 1, opposite Spinelli coffee.

The pork broth soup base was tasty, I finish every drop of the soup. You could taste the natural sweetness of the pork in the soup.

Must try.

Copy sketch

Spent 3 hours this morning copying one of Da Vinci's painting.

Kind of disappointed with the end product as it did not quite resemble the original.

Charcoal

Tried charcoal drawing this afternoon and realized that it is really not easy.

The difficulty for me with charcoal is getting the right tones and shades.

Definitely have to spend more time practising with the black gold.

Ramen Play

I had my lunch at Ramen Play at 313 Orchard this afternoon. The restaurant is situated at B3.

Service was good and the hotstone rice which I ordered was delicious. The hotstone kept the rice hot the whole time. The rice was cooked to perfection and the sauce fragrant the rice mildly and not over salty. The lower layer of rice was slightly burnt to crispy perfection.

Oishi!

Will definitely go back again to try the ramen.

Yuzu drink

I hardly drink soft drinks or carbonated drinks. I recently bought this to try and immediately fell in love with it.

It tastes really like fresh Yuzu. Tangy and refreshing and hardly too sweetened.

I guess this drink will find a permanent place in my fridge.

Specky

I went to collect my glasses today.
This pair is with progressive lens, which allows me to see far yet assist me with near readings.

As I age, I could feel the body's wear and tear. My eye sight is failing me, my knees are week and I no longer could jump any more. My back aches if I sit too long on the floor.
But thanks to science and technology, we still have inventions that despite the body tearing down, still able to have some quality life.

So, how's my new specks?

35 books

Ever since I got my kindle In May last year, I've read 35 books.
I've never read so many books in a single year before. I read for pleasure and mainly read novels. A friend commented that I read junks.
Haha! Junk or no junk, the kindle provides me with many hours of pleasure.

I've still got hundred over books downloaded in my kindle, most of them downloaded free from amazon.
Ebook reader is one of those inventions that is really remarkable.
A must get item if you love reading.

A brand new year

Time and tide wait for no man. It's a brand new year again. 2011 just slip by so hurriedly.

It's a strange feeling to wake up in a new year. Perhaps there's much apprehension to go through the whole cycle again.

Thinking back, I don't think I've accomplish much in 2011, maybe I didn't even set out to accomplish anything.

So for 2012, what is it that I want to achieve? Perhaps I seriously need to think through.

Nevertheless, we will hope that 2012 will be a better year than the last. With less calamity and more world peace!
Happy new year everyone.
