looking rather stern for st nick, aren’t you? love the fact that there’s an opening for your lips; rather thoughtful design.

I’m curious about how do they taste like. But I appreciated very much the chinese food.
OT: And… about that old thigh hair problem? I don’t think they look so bad.

haha. like the photoshop work. i think this mrt game is a lose-lose situation. i do find that people let those on the train alight first. but the problem is that those people alighting take their own sweet time to do so (less sense of urgency because their path is unobstructed maybe? dunno) such that all of us graciously waiting outside really have to rush to cram in before the doors close after them!

Is this a chinese thing or asian thing? I could never reach the cash counter in china when no one actually stands behind the line…

My solution is to spend spend spend! Or face deflation, as the newspaper said.Gosh you can’t imagine how depressing the newspapers are nowadays, especially those I pick up everyday from canary wharf…I will go singapore when it’s 1:1.

sometimes they wear nametags. i had a friend in secondary school who liked calling waiters/waitresses by their names as much as possible if they were wearing a nametag haha :)

Haha I’d thought of Garçon too, but somehow I doubt I’ll be using that in out of place in li’l ol’ Singapore.

Hmm on hindsight I guess Sir isn’t really that bad. I was just thinking that if I were a waiter I’d feel weird being called that. I suppose I’d prefer to be referred to by name, but it seems like it’s not the custom for waiters to introduce themselves here, either…

This is another tongue-in-cheek response, but if I really wanted to sound snobbish, I would go, “Garçon!”
(Honestly though, “Sir” is my preferred choice. As anyone who has worked in a restaurant knows, service personnel deserve all the respect they can get.)
