wow, i havent sit down infront of my computer for like....a wk? haha, not a very long period of time but i guess it's quite an achievement in this high-tech globalised era. haha. well, you cant rlly blame me, the tv programmes are just too interesting.

well... i didnt rlly notice that i spend much more time infront of the tv than others until nursing camp last wk. was talking abt how realistic are the hospital settings in hospital dramas, i realised i've watched almost all of the dramas they name(hk, american, jap, taiwan, korean...). from the most typical ones like CSI(not rlly, but abit biomed lar), 妙手人心1,2 and 3(magic of hk dramas), 白色巨塔, ER, house to ulu ulu dramas like 3 pounds, general hospital, scrubs, etc. haha. if you think you're reading greek or latin for the last 10 seconds, well..... it proves 2 things.

1. you are SO WRONG!
2. rlly goes to show what a tv freak i am.:)

okay, why did i start talking abt tv? o, cause as you MAY know tt there's 2 pretty entertaining sg homemade sitcoms on channel 5 which brightens up my tues and wed nights namely parental guidance and sayang sayang... well, there's this actor who nv fails to catch my attention---chua en lai. why? okay, i'm not going gaga over matured guys again but is the fact tt he reminds me so much of benjamin wang. haha. check this clip out, i rlly think it has the benjamin wang attitude. haha.

dun ask me why didnt i put the clip directly on my blog. cause i dunno how to. HAHA

and to side track...hm, i was rlly impressed by my dad this wk.
 roald dahl might have came up with the book "the magic finger" but it's nothing when it meets it's match. the very own Poon family's Peter's "magic fingerS". heh. why leh? 

this goes: 
i went to buy a blanket cover last sunday as it was the end of the GSS le, i caught the last wave:) the blanket covers were rlly cheap...like $10? from aussio(or however you spell tt shop's name) it looked rlly nice and i showed it to my dad at night. 

the first thing he did was to touch the texture, then said "hm, rlly not bad. shld be 80% cotton, very comfy one, but will be abit hot if u dun on air-con..." 
 
i was like...."how did you know it's 80%?" so i went to check the make-up of the blanket cover. to my utmost shock, there it's stated "80% cotton, etc....." xia dao.

but also not the first time lar. tt time when i was knitting yx's scarf, wu shimu provided me with wool lar. then careless me dirtied it accidentally while cycling to shimu's place. got caught in btw the wheels. so there's very obvious stains lar. then shimu was very agitated and scared, dunno how to wash. 

"water might not be able to wash off you know? got grease leh... but i dunno if this material can tahan detergent leh..."
then i asked "what is this material actually?"
"羊毛 i think...." 
"why `i think`? you nv ask before you buy?"
"no, because it's 花园街的羊毛..."
"o...."
"so i dunno how to wash this..."
"it's okay, i can ask my dad what this is..."
"how your dad know?"
"by touching i guess....shld be lar..."
"wah, sure anot...."
"i dunno...."

then tt night, i showed my dad the scarf and ask him how to wash...
"师母said it's羊毛...but she's not sure so dunno how to wash off the stains leh..."
touch touch
"o, it's 人造毛 mix mix lar. can use detergent but want better effect, wash with lukewarm water and blow dry with cold wind."

i told shi mu what my dad said and we both agreed....he has indeed accuqired a skill over his 30 solid years of experience in the garment industry, no play play. haha, so now like every shirt also ask my dad what's it made off...haha, so fun. but so ironic, my dad knows more abt fashion than i do. oops... haha.

真是 “家有一老, 如有一宝!”
