Her 33 Inches Nails

TV is just the greatest invention ever ever.

I watched on the ellen show about a woman who grew her fingernails since 1979. Gosh!!! 1979!!! She had claws…giant claws… Seriously, 33 inches long on each finger. That's monster-scary. And they were all yellow and gross but surprisingly not in the least bit brittle at all.


How does she do anything at all? For example, can she ever shake hands? I know I will never shake any hand like that. Plus, how does she wipe her ass after toilet? And how does she manage to dig her nose? She's like the real-life version of Edward Scissorshands. Won't those crazy claws of hers claw through anything erm, sensitive?! Imagine her carrying a baby… eew, she'll just skewer the child.

Belu--The Natural Mineral Water

Today, I’m going to blog about one of the most mundane things in the world – water. Yah, hard to believe it, right? But as you all know, I deal with beverages in my work, and like the way Eskimos can see more than one shade of white, we can discern different tastes in water. No kidding!



I recently got the chance to try the company Belu’s mineral water at my workplace. And gosh, my first thought was that this must be the kind of stuff that they serve in some 5*restaurant in Paris or something. The taste is so refreshing, and it’s also carbonated, which gives it that extra zing as it goes down.


And it’s no wonder, because the bottlers had actually used the latest scientific equipment to search out and measure the mineral contents in wells all across the
UK. In the end, they settled on springs in Shropshire and the Black Mountains. These places are pristine locations and have no human habitats, which ensure that the springs provide only the purest water. Filtered through the highlands in the area, the water is also rich in magnesium and calcium.


And here’s the real kicker for environmentalists out there – the bottles are completely biodegradable (the first in the world!), so you can get healthy and not pollute the environment at the same time. Cool!

An Ordinary Day

Well, the only reason why I can finally blog now is that I have just cleaned up my whole apartment (yes, almost every nook and cranny), which has caused my body to ache so much that I need to do something sitting down.

Unfortunately, I have no dramatic happenings to report. Neither do I have gorgeous breath-taking pictures to upload. My life has been, well, should I say it, ordinary.

However, I feel this crazy obligation to blog since
some people have been complaining why my blog is dead. So, I'll just post something interesting to appease those who actually bother visiting my blog :P

I went to this food court yesterday, and saw this sign which amused me to no end. This may be a weak attempt to sound cute – to condense two thoughts – “thank you” and “please queue” into “thank you for queuing”. HAHAHA…LOL... I wonder who invents this phrase…
