Bear & Bruno Are Actors

Bear & Bruno are TV actors now!

In case you haven’t already know, the lovely Rotties have been involved in a Malay drama serial! It’s great exposure and experience for them I suppose  - what with Rottweilers’ reputation gone and
working with a lot of Muslims on set. The boys were very obedient, according to their Pa, and he even sent me some pictures on set!

So adorable.

Their main duties were to bark and chase after the school students (I know you may think it’ll worsen the reputation, but hey, Bear & Bruno were instructed to do whatever the director wants). Switch around your thinking. Besides, at the end of the day, the boys are paid and their blog/name will be credited as well.

I am looking forward to the episode on Suria channel when it will be aired in January.

Also, on the boys’ blog, they have an abandoned husky named Shiloh waiting to be adopted. Interested parties please go to their site to find out more details and contact person/ viewing appointment.

Remember, pets are for life! Don’t be irresponsible like me – QQ is suffering from very bad skin now due to my negligence. I hadcompletely forgotten about giving her time to switch food of different brands.

Skinny monster, poor thing. :( (Not that I didn't feed her. She refused to eat some foods that I gave her. )

The Handburger

Last week I finally gave this new (sort of ) restaurant a try. It was featured in 8 Days once and I’ve wanted to go there. Rachie and I decided to settle in there for a good meal. Apparently,the burgers are all handmade - thus the name.

For burgers, the prices are a little steep ($13.80 for the Original Handburger and Portobello Mushroom Handburger) excluding GST and service charge. You get to choose either a chilled tomato or a bowl of
their homemade fries as a side. The drinks and dessert lists look equally yummy but  it was out of my budget.

The chilled tomato tastes really fresh, and coming from somebody who doesn’t even like cherry tomatoes, I would say this is good stuff. Within the tomato is like a coleslaw salad, which was too overbearing for me though.

If you picked the fries, good choice. Hahaha. The fat’s worth it. Somehow they used their special ingredients and marinated the fries to perfection (by that I mean just the way I like it). Heh. Don’t forget to eat it with their BBQ sauce (kop-ed from Rach’s Portobello Mushroom burger)!

The atmosphere was a little noisy, it didn’t really seem like a restaurant, but more like an atas fast food place. However, I lovetheir slightly lower-than-usual cube table and chairs, felt like I dined on practical art. :D

Career Fairs

The past two months has been a frenzy of career fairs! I've been to 5 polytechnics, 1 university and 1 ITE and 2 army camps.

All of the trips sure were fun, those were also the times I talked to her A LOT, and almost about everything under the sun.

The first one at Nanyang Technological University I was not dressed properly as all the others present were either in their blazer or black ties, while I'm in my spaghetti violent romper. Hur hur. The people there were really chatty though. Kang was also right about the level of geekiness.

In Plurk I mentioned that I loved Republic Poly because the school is so conducive it makes me feel like sitting by the big pond and study for my exams all day. Hahaha.

Um, and I seriously think that Temasek Poly needs to refurnish the canteen, or renovate the entire canteens altogether. And why do I need to scan my student pass to just go and pee in the library?! Then you had an electricity trip while we pee as well. Greeeeeeat.

And I conclude that Singapore Poly IS indeed bigger than Ngee Ann Poly. I got lost even before I entered the school. Luckily Onion was there to rescue me! Thank you. :)

The crowd at Ngee Ann Poly was simply pathetic. I talked to less than 5 people on that day. Nobody care about their future career! Or about winning 3 sets of wii home! Damn you people! The sandwiches at the atrium were still as costly and cheapskate and the aunties as rude and grouchy as ever!!

Nanyang Poly have hidden talents. They have a CCA group that performs tap dancing at the age of 17. I'm not kidding. It's not a 6-member group, but more like a 60-member group performing at the foyer where we were. I was surprised. Their hip-hop group is up to par with TP's and NP's.

Simei ITE looks majestic. I told her it looks like a theme park to me, very fun. They have lifts and escalators everywhere!! The canteen serves yummy laksa too. Students seem to know one another everywhere, just the kind of "fun" environment you wish you can learn in. Not to mention thre are a lot of hot babes and good-looking guys in there too.

I also feel damn proud because the banner stand used at these roadshows, is designed by me! Heh.

My first attempt with a big-scale print.

And also the brochure that were printed in bulk:

Still makes me happy, although the paper material I messed it up. It's okay, next batch will come up to make a solid design! :P

Notes to self: *must work hard*
