Fashion No-Nos and Shaker Fries

It's 6pm on Friday! No more thinking about work until 9am on Monday. 63 work-free hours :D

Getting back to the first subject of this post, I was on a bus back from lunch today and I saw a woman in her 20s wearing a long, fairly see-through white skirt. Nothing wrong with that, except that underneath she was wearing black-and-white striped undies.

Tsk tsk tsk. The zebra look went out years ago.

Now on to the second subject.
Blast from the past! Remember this?

Yummy! Mamee Monster Snacks - the original shaker fries. Everytime I eat this I always think of Cookie Monster! And speaking of shaker fries, I used to ask for extra packets of seasoning and bring them back to the US to eat whenever I had a craving. "One large fries and an extra paper bag, please!" and then "Shake shake shake"...

Other tips for students/pple overseas: if you like zhang you can freeze them, pack them into your luggage (inside another plastic bag of course) and then unfreeze and steam them whenever the craving hits. Another thing you can do, though I've never tried, is you can go to your favourite char kway teow seller, pack as many packets as you want, freeze them and pack them into your luggage. According to my friend, char kway teow can keep up to 1 month.

One more thing: If you ever want to figure out how things work this site is GREAT! I've spent two days learning about TV, cable TV, digital TV and other shit.

Happy weekend!

I fucking love Mamee, too! My brother and I once tried to cook it like Maggi mee. Not so good -- stick with the real Maggi mee, and eat Mamee like you ought to. I don't like the seasoning though. It makes my skin crawl.

See Des, basically I just like salt. I used to sneak into the kitchen, stick my finger into the salt container and eat it :)
