A Dumb Engineer

A group of blondes in a class at the University of Southern California were given the assignment to measure the height of a flagpole. So they went out to the flagpole with ladders and tape measures, and they're falling off the ladders, dropping the tape measures - the whole thing was just a mess.


An engineering student comes along, sees what they're trying to do, walks over, pulls the flagpole out of the ground, lays it flat, measures it from end to end, and then gives the measurement to one of the blondes and walks away.


After the engineer had gone, one blonde turned to another and laughed. "Isn't that just like a dumb engineer? We're looking for the height and he gives us the length!"

Travel Document

Issue: FOOD

Paris

Pastries de francais are irresistible and moneyback guarantee!!

The croissants, choc baguette-looking, cinnamon rolls, crepes etc are my memory of France. Not to forget a cafe-restaurant. Which tourist(s) will go to eat at the same place TWICE despite the long walking distance and limited tour days. Us. Strictly speaking, we went there THREE times. I bought a yummilious apple-strawberry-kiwi pie last.

We 'dined' once in a Chinese restaurant owned by Vietnamese. The price was daylight robbery! So much for missing Asian food and accomodating to my vegetarian diet. Thanks ladies.

Galway

Had mainly Indian food in Ireland. Funny huh? But I never mind it a single teeny bit!! Was enjoying eating all the spicy food:)

1st dinner was FOC. Hoo. Had great apple crumbles and nasi with dhal.

2nd day. Lunch prepared by dear Raji - chapati with dhal and spicy veggies. Dinner was paid by dear Raji for at Indian Cuisine. Feeling jeans getting tighter.

3rd day. Crepes and Donuts freshly made were my lunch at the weekend market. Delicious. Dinner was so fulfilling with nice Indian food for Deepavali celebration at Raji's friend's house. The night ended so fun with Twister game and watching Hindi Mtvs. Jeans was difficult to be worn.

4th day. Indian style fried noodles by dear Raji again. Super nice! Had such a big plate. Saw my chubby face from my trip to Cliffs of Moher.

5th day. Snack is McDonald's new strawberrry and custard pie. Huge portion of rice with dhal and veggie. Cannot imagine how much weight I've put on.

6th day. Heavy dinner with chapathi and two dishes of veggies and a vegetarian patty. Supper was at Supermacs - Veggie burger (super yummy) and single scoop of Bailey's icecream.

The only more Irish food that I had was: Flapjack. Very nice! I had two at one go.



Maybe you cant tell how much I ate from those above. Because, everyday, I'll eat one big bowl of cereal and milk. So much nicer than those we have here. And tonnes of white bread and peanut butter when I watch the TV. And their white bread which a sarcity in Oslo, is so soft and CHEAP. 0.34euros a BIG loft. We bought one to feed the swans!!

London

Food prepared at Raji's : White bread with veggie patties. Anthon Berg choc bought to trip of Paris. And yummilious muesli bars from Galway.

Love these Girls



I was anticipating the whole of yesterday to arrive back at Oslo. Really miss eating and chilling out with the girls.

I thought a sms to them of my safe arrival would be appropriate. THEN...

Melody replied that they're waiting to fetch me!! So touched.

My heart really felt warm at that instant. Really :)

These poor girls stayed up at night to wait for my reply. And luckily I did even though I didnt see the email by Mel earlier.

All dressed in winter clothings, smiling still when they're so lethargic... THEY ARE SIMPLY SO SWEET!!!

Moreover, there was a plate of WeeJax's fried meehoon waiting for me.

Life with them is like a dream come true...

Why are you so Beautiful?
So that I can stay in your eyes every second I can...

Why is your voice so mellow?
So that my feelings can reach the depths of your heart...

Why are you looking at me with such watery eyes?
So that your fresh smiling face may flood the fountain in my heart...

Eventful Yesterday

Woke up early to do laundry and cleaning of room.

Went to school for an hour of chat with Lovefy.

Went to Majorstuen and window shopped at GUESS and ZARA. Fruitful reward at H&M :)

Sidenote 1: We concluded that European countries are anti-American products. Guess in Oslo is totally OVERPRICED! "Totally" is understated. A pair of jeans easily costs 400SGD and a denium pencil skirt is 380SGD. Shopping is so NOT FUN in Oslo...

Sidenote 2:So sad that I didn't go Spain with the girls, because I can barely afford anything in Zara here. It's not expensive, but not reasonable either. A pair of pumps ranges from 150SGD to 300 SGD.

Went to watch CAR RACING d.o.w.n.s.t.a.i.r.s. Yesh. Remember there's a turf club next to my domitory? And it actually held a car racing event! Fantastic! Nic and I were having fun taking pics with the various TYPES of cars. Believe it or not, the ah-gongs and ah-mahs took part in the race! Racing off with their coolest and polished vintage precious... ...



Guess this car's brand...


Ta-dah!


We vroom-vroomed in this after an offer by a friendly 65-and-above-looking ah-gong.


A pic taken after much considerations and hesitations...


And the day ended with nice movie gathering with some MS laydees at Youie's room! Devil wears Prada. Finally. It was a preparation movie for 3 of us before we stepped onto the fashion ground -> Par-hee
