This is just too funny! Silver Bullet came home with his pants ripped off right on the ass. Apparently, he has no clue as to how and when it happened, but he did walked around the office baring his ass to the world for almost the whole day. Looks like someone had his ass aired nice and proper!
The funny thing was, he already had ripped off another pair of the same brand just the day before by getting stuck on one of the drawer cabinets while walking at some speed in the office. It seems like Lee tough jeans ain’t that tough at all, eh. Can’t help laughing my guts out and snapped a couple of pictures.

The old fridge appeared irreparable, acting up again and grumbling away with some strange noises, melting all the frozen ice-cubes in it. This happened even after it being repaired just a few days ago. God know how ancient that fridge was.
A phone-call later, a new fridge was delivered without us having to fork out a single cent. How cool is that! The up-side of living in a fully-furnished rented apartment. From faulty electrical appliances supplied by them, to plumbing, to damaged screen doors, to servicing the air-conditioning, to drilling holes in the walls. You name it and the apartment services does it at no additional costs incurred. The service from the apartment here is indeed impeccable. Everything is taken care of. Times like this, I’m glad we don’t own our own home. Imagine the expenses you have to incurr when things go kaput.
The old and a newer, sleek(ier) looking fridge on the right.

What is really so special about chicken rice? It is just…well…rice with chicken afterall!
I’d like to give a smack on the head to anyone who thinks chicken rice is just that. I’m disagreeing on this. Violently disagree.
Let me straighten that out. Chicken rice is NOT just rice with chicken, ok! It is more than that. The rice is special and so is the chicken. The accompanying condiments also play a part in making the dish taste that much better. It definitely is NOT JUST any other odinary rice with chicken.
One of the best chicken rice I’ve had was actually when I was in poly. There was only one Malay chicken rice stall and it was heavenly. I remembered asking the makcik what was her secret ingredient in her rice, only to be told in whispers that it was butter. I have fond memories of that canteen and its food. Post poly days, it is also one of those dishes I would order when I don’t know what else to eat. It is life simple pleasures and I can’t help but made it myself. I skipped the soup that usually comes with it, though. Simply because I ran out of chicken stock and didn’t have enough chicken pieces to boil it along with the soup. It turned out great, nevertheless!
