It’s the birthday season. Happy Birthday yuan, chiyu, yiqi, jiaxin & pakchong. And later this month, LeQuor, jiaxian, as well as jingyi will be celebrating their birthdays.
Birthdays
Used to have so many bdae celebrations, had quite a number of them at my place. But now, I do not have a place for myself, so I did not initiate as many (or should I say, none?).
Everyone have their own ways to “celebrate” now.. Some with husband, wive, some with bf, gf. Some have buddy to drink, dance, club. some choose not to bother people.
But anyhow, I’m not too much of a birthday person, bday celebration is never a big thing to me. I just loves the meet up, gathering, makan and sharing. So, friends, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Don’t need a celebration, just find an excuse to meet whenever you are free, and I shall share my secret on “how to look skinny and STILL have a tummy!”. Cheers!
Just got my prints from the printer, then I habitually fold the corner and staple it. This little action made me nostalgic.
I used to do it weekly, in my high school days, for my school works. They were all written on loose-leaf paper that are so thin and can break easily. I had to fold the corner and staple them, so they can stay together, stronger.
Nowadays, the papers are much better, it really doesn’t make sense to do so. Sometime they are so thick, I can’t staple them when the corner are folded.
As usual, I visit Wikipedia to check if there’s any interesting article about staple. Well, can’t say I’m surprise, but it seems people around the world is the same, making the same old silly prank…

There was a simple game we used to play when we need to decide a winner, or to determine who start a game 1st.
“Lomm Chum Buss..” or some say “Lomm Cum Put”.. or any other variation..
Now, finally I found how to spell it. Rochambeau or Roshambo. So french!
As I research more, I found that it could mean another game.. Nuts kicking game: “two players taking turns kicking each other’s genitals. The first player to fall down in pain loses”. well, different method, same objective! (or maybe not? )
ouch...
Luckily, the more gentle version was brought into my childhood instead of the latter..
“… The D.C.-area taco chain California Tortilla offered a promotional discount that we find especially admirable, given our love of the sport: any customer who beats the cashier in a game of Rock Paper Scissors receives $1 off an entree…”
