Hot in the City

This is about the life of Miss Mo, a 30-something gal who recently moved back to Singapore from the US.

 

Miss Mo dumps date

Remember Ipoh Boy? I have decided to dump him. Here are the following reasons -

1) He is doing the same old sms thing which I dread; grammatically incorrect mundane sms. He likes sending sms to me in the mornings like 'good morning. h r u? had breakfast already?'. 'Today rain hor. caught in the rain?'

2) He has long fingernails, esp. the last finger on each hand.

3) He is not comfortable speaking English or Chinese. We converse in Cantonese. The last time I spoke that much Cantonese was with my hairdresser, Frankie, in Chinatown, Manhattan. Ipoh boy is from Malaysia. He went to a public school so he learnt little English and Chinese but lots of Malay. He says 'Restoran', instead of restaurant and spells Calsium.

4) He is laidback to the point of being lazy. After work, he either goes play badminton or goes home to watch Korean dramas. He has sets of VCDs of Korean dramas! He is not selective in movies. He watches whatever movie is out. He says he generally doesn't understand what they say in the movies. That is why he prefers action-packed movies.

5) He's vain. He has blond highlights on his hair, which is quite beng but for a 29 y/o guy like him, I don't think it's no longer acceptable, right? He intends to leave his hair longer so that he can perm it like the guys in the Korean dramas. Yikes!

6)He's vain because he wants to lose weight at his tummy. He played so much badminton that he hurt his back and now he can't play for the time being. Kekeke!

7)He's not widely read. He knows nothing about stocks. He asked me what is IMF.

8)I can't communicate with him.

I guess there are enough reasons to dump him, right? The question is how to do it diplomatically and tactfully??!

Miss Mo goes to Melaka






Last weekend, Miss Mo and Superstar went to Melaka!

Melaka was still the same as before. The red building is still there. The ruins still remain and the mega mall is still there.

We shopped a lot the first day we were there. There's this store called FOS, short for Factory Outlet Store. It's the most amazing store found in this part of the region. We found a lot of good deals and it's really worth the trip there.

Of course, we couldn't resist the temptation of good food in Melaka. We had loads of delicious cuisines like its famous chicken rice, Cendol, nonya laksa, etc. Yummy! Melaka was pretty small too. I think we were on Jonker Street many times too.

We stayed at Hotel Puri which was a lovely Peranakan house. It's really huge inside.

It was a nice little trip.

BBQ at Kaki Bukit

Have you heard of anyone bbqing at an industrial estate? Well, I was invited to one along with Superstar.

In fact, it was my first time to an industrial estate! The pit was a portable one placed on a table frame which was supposed to be that of an aquarium. LOL!

Anyway, one of the young(er) guys were saying that you know you're old when you're bbqing at an industrial estate. He is so right!

 
 

The Devil Wears Prada

I went out on a movie date last Saturday with Ipoh Boy, aka Ashton. He still thinks I'm in my 20s. Kekeke!

Anyway, I said I wanted to watch The Devil Wears Prada. It was ok if he didn't want to. Of course, he said he would. Kekeke!

I loved the movie. It's like reading Vogue or InStyle but watching it in a movie. They even mentioned Hoboken in the movie too! Meryl Streep is so funny. The clothes are glamorous too!

Do catch that movie!
