Launch of New Balance SCSM Runner & Finisher T-Shirts

Yes yes! The New Balance Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon's (in short: NB SCSM) Runner's Tee and Finisher's Tee is finally officially launched. Hurray!

What is so special about this year's finishers' tee is that your finishing time can be printed on the tee itself... I better run faster than my Sundown this time round!

As for the runner's tee, the color is the same as before, except that adidas logo is now replaced with New Balance =)

can't wait to collect my Race Pack!

and all the best to those who have been training hard!

Menya Kaiko @ Ion Orchard

For the same price or even lesser, you can get a bigger and nicer bowl of ramen from Noodle House Ken. The soup base is tooo salty for my liking, and the noodles are not as chewy as those that I had in NHK. The char siew is a shame (I thought). Tasteless as it is, combined with a salty soup base. Will I ever return!? YES! if there are no other existing food-lets in ION!

On a side-note, I truly love ION. Despite people saying tha the floor to ceiling height is low at the basement, but hello??? It's basement... and to get a higher ceiling height would be sacrifacing one whole basement. The tenant-mix for the retail as well as F&B is superb, the concierge staffs are always on their toes, looking so professional. Seriously, I don't see the point in walking to other parts of Orchard anymore, unless it's for food. Oh yes, and the toilets! the floors are so dry and clean, the air is fresh and nice, well-equipped with napkins and a hand dryer just infront of the basin so that water will not get splash around, and a vanity "mirror" just before you leave the washroom. :)

Double Fillet Old Fish

Who wrote "old" fish on the order sheet?
Can I order fillet "young" fish?
I wrote that. Y?

This is purely non-intentional, and from this you can imagine how freaking long I haven't ordered a fillet O' Fish Burger, and how often I actually step into Mc, that I literally almost forgot how to spell that "O".

But this was good entertainment during the long meeting session. =)


Meeting started at 930am, but 2nd meeting which was supposed to be at 11 was delayed due to the 1st meeting, and so the 2nd meeting was postponed near to lunch time. So... we had a "lunch cum meeting".

Initially they wanted to order Subway, and I was =D, but they had difficulty getting through the line, so I was "forced" to eat something from Mc instead. =(

I should have ordered the grilled chicken foldover which was a healthier choice, but it really slipped my mind that Mc offers that. (another instance that shows my ignorance towards Mc).

So I ordered the double fillet fish since it appears everywhere on the adverts. I really don't enjoy this lunch at all. Seriously, What is so nice about Mcdonalds? Yes, they offer convenience, but they definitely spoils my appetite. I can taste the oily after-taste which I really hate. But as for the seaweed shaker fries, I ate a couple, and I do like the french fries with the seasoning. heh

Anyway, I have added this "I THINK THAT" column at the right hand side of the blog, which is supposed to update my thoughts "real time". lol. and "WHAT DO YOU THINK" is a channel for anyone to comment, instead of using the normal comment which cna be quite troublesome.



K, Good night. Early night for an early morning for a good run tml.
