Merry Xmas & a Happy New Year!

So fast... Yet another 'fruitful' year. Thanks to all my 'fans' and all the best to all for the days to come. My apologies to some whom I have hurt, and my best wishes to whom I am closely attached. Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year!

P/s: I'm putting a vow to be fit next year, just in time before Convo so you all can lift me up to the sky. Lol...

When the Lord shuts the door…

I hate urgent shipments! Urgent shipment simply means ‘super-kuli’ job. My supervisor directed me to arrange for an urgent shipment and the parts have to get out from our plant before noon. Therefore, I headed to the ‘Engineering Rack’. Name je glamour, but the condition…huh!! It was hot, dirty, dusty, rusty and whatever ty ty la… But when I was in the midst of segregating the shipment parts, aiseh man, my idol appear from nowhere le, right in front of my eyes!

When the Lord shuts the door, somehow he opens the window. Lol…

Xmas awaits.

Its gonna be Xmas soon and I have NO plans... My mum will be heading to Taiwan, my dad will be at my grandad’s while my brother will be off celebrating his 1st anniversary with my dai sou. I will be at??? Still wondering...

Thank U Aunty.

Uthes’ mum has a great heart for flowers, and according to Uthes even the bees fond to visit their house which is filled with artificial flowers! Well after a great treat his mum gave me for Deepavali, I couldn’t think more of a better way to thank her then getting her some FLOWERS.

Fresh flowers? She is not my girlfriend and plus, fresh flowers won’t last long. Next…
Artificial garland of flowers? Very cheap but mo sam yi ah (less sincere). Despair…

Then I thought of a technique I learnt about 10 years ago. Look at these red drinking straws below. What can it be made into uh???

MAGNUM OPUS!

So for this Christmas, spend less and give someone you love something from your heart!

R u kiddin' me?

I mean, I’m merely half way of my intern. And now, you guys call me to decide on what is my FYP Project’s title? R u kiddin’ me!!!! Ain’t that too much to take for the moment?

Please...please…please… Gosh! But then, being worried that I will be slacking behind, I’ve gotta wake up and join the hush-rush run.

Anyways, to my friends at UTP, take good care of yourself and GOOD LUCK y’ll!

Plastique

I thought plastic injection industry was a piece of cake. But let me tell you how serious this industry is after 4 months in this field. A plastic spoon as below will take roughly a week to complete! No kidding man!

In coming stock of raw material will require lead time of 2-3 days. Mould polish and refurbishment will take a day. Testing mould will take a day. Cycle time for this “minuscule” spoon is around a minute and so 5 days just finished like that. Production will run for 1 day or two to buffer for stock and then only you will have what all call it, a plastic spoon. Tough life uh?

Egg Tarts

Sunday for me is waking up at 12, and wonder around shopping malls for the rest of the day. But I wonder if I can make myself useful this week. I woke up at 12, and I was quite reluctant to wake up. When Mak Teh called around 1, want it or not, I had to wake up. After a quick lunch, I decided to bake some egg tarts. The very last time I bake some was when I was at Adelaide, Australia. The recipe, as simple as the basic stuff you can reach at home:

Pastry
150 g flour
120 butter
1 egg
A pinch of salt

Custard
3 eggs
60g sugar
Vanilla extract
250ml milk (Make sure not from China)

Mix them well, and bake for 20 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius. The end products…Kelvinicious
