iphOne 4 invasion!

believe it or not!
11 Sept 10!
one of the rare morning in which i woke up at 7am just to queue for iphone 4 with dear dear!
this was something which dear dear really wanted.
when we arrived minutes before 8am, there was already a queue in place
we were the 25th person in the queue!

Queue o/s comcentre @ 8am!
The demographics of the crowd is so diverse 
It is mainly male with exception of a handful females 
who are probably there to accompany their significant other.
So much on the "death grip" and the other downsides of iphone 4 but its charm remains.

Like what the HTC Taiwan advertisement goes,
"If it is not iphone 4 why do i want it for?"
what did the people at Apple did right?
Obviously there are better phone than iPhone 4 but people are still going crazy over it.
The queue at Singtel shop never cease from the day iPhone 4 releases.
And the great thing about iPhone 4 is almost none of its feature is anything new.
Yet, it makes people go crazy about it.

Seriously I really can't recall when was the last time i queued for something!
and having to do it in the "comfort" of the morning sun was definitely something not to my liking!
but at least i finally reached my quota for vitamin E! 
and thanks to the wonderful invention of brolly =p

daily intake of vit E while waiting in the queue!
around 9am, 2 singtel staffs appeared and started to distribute mineral water to those in the queue, 
aren't they thoughtful?

soon after, the tickets were dispensed and here is our winning lottery number!

queue no 19!!!
a super happy dear dear with his winning lottery!

dear dear with his iphone 4

the power of love and iphone 4!

10 Sept 10 oUting


happy hari raya!
we woke up early in our attempt to queue for iphone 4!
but when we arrived at comcentre at 11am, there was a long queue and within minutes, we were informed that iphone 4 has been sold out!
*sad dear dear*

hence, we headed to our fav coffee joint TCC for a slow start to the day!
TCC @ raffles place has always been my favourite especially with the bean bag sofa.
the best part this morning was, its a P.H so raffles place is so quiet and we could enjoy our morning reading accompanied by good coffee and food!

second half of the day was simply shopping,
bought a few things and took some time off to do the things that i have been thinking of doing for quite some time..
we dropped by ION food hall and it was really amazing...
unlike typical food hall, ION have a lot more to offer with names we are familiar yet wouldn't expect  them to set up stores here: 
*Lim Chee Guan (yes! its the bak gua whereby ppl go crazy during CNY)
 *Awfully Chocolate (HEI ice cream...*yummy*), 
*Each-a-cup (it even offer PREMIUM range @ ION store),
*Yami Yogurt (my favourite!)

and newbies like:
*Tsukiji Gindaco (Delicious Takoyaki with egg mayo topping! I think this was the one i saw in Ueno!)
*Modern Peking Duck (this is one business owner with good money brains! the 2 dishes offered here is duck crepe or roasted pig crepe and these 2 dishes have been around for the longest time ever yet there is still a queue cos the boss managed to convert what used to be a premium restaurant dish into a commoner food! *Thumbs up*)
*Happy Lemon (it offers weird drinks like green tea with salt and cheese!)

Fr Happy Lemon: Green Tea with salt and cheese

Fr Happy Lemon: Lemon Yogurt with Aloe Vera

Their numbering tag which is rather environmentally friendly!

The reverse side is their Happy Lemon logo!



Interesting drink!
Their variety is so untypical of a bubble tea shop and this makes ordering difficult.
We choose their house recommendation and i must say green tea with salt and cheese is worth a first try.
So the next time you are sick of the traditional bubble tea, you know where to get innovative!
