Of comebacks and floods....

Today was a day of comebacks... my daddy's king, Thierry Henry was back in the red and white and scored the winning goal against Leeds early yesterday morning.

It was a joyous occasion for gooners all over the world...This guy may be Handball Henry for France, however, he is King of Highbury and Ashburton Grove, okay!!!

On a sad note, Singapore joins the Malaysia Cup fray after a hiatus of 17 years... No happy ending. We lost 1-2 to Kelantan at Jalan Besar earlier.

It prompted mummy to tell dad that he is wasting his time again. In her philosophical words, she said that It is not surprising that they should lose. It will be shocking if they ever wins. I thought it was a brilliant observation on the state of Singapore football.

All I can say, we must dare to call a flood, a flood. A pond, a pond.

Flood Preparedness "Exercise"

We were walking to abuela's place for dinner earlier. The many sandbags on those HDB "terrace" houses along Jalan Mamor and Jalan Bahagia caught me and my parents' eyes.Papi was telling mummy that it could be standard issues from HDB, Town Council or PUB.

All those houses there have been spared of floods previously... till now. Walao. Really, man. No amount of engineering can save Singapore from floods.

Great Singapore Flood

There were big-time floods last Saturday...

Floods? Not again

There is another round of flood this morning... Seriously, it has gone from once in 50 years to roughly twice in a week. Nowadays, better bring along swimming gear before leaving the house. Wear one's goggles, trunks, swimsuits, carry ring floats or foam boards everywhere. Ditch your ez-link cards for boats, kayaks, dinghys or anything that floats. In any case, I got this...Stay safe!

Uniquely Shopping Experience

It happened today... at the heart of Orchard Road! Downtown flood? WTF!
