I hear, I see, I post

Been a long time since there's any movement here

I want to go for a staycation so badly. Have you ever felt the need to cry and laugh at the same time?

New year! New 2014!

Humans should have some self-deserving basis reserved truly for themselves. Not be such pretentious soul pretending to care. It's alright to be different people in different times, that's ok, but we should always remember the people we were.

So I shall start my first resolution (why it's resolution? To resolve living a new life?) to be more observant and mindful.

Being mindful and sensitive towards others.

Second. Finish the freaking Bride and Barista story. It's been 3 years, going 4 and I've not even finish 0.00001% of it. Haiz.

Third. Bring back my old witty linguistic. The older post from me is much sophisticated and just is much better.

Tada.

December

December is coming real soon in like less than a day, bring Xmas to just 26 days! Xmas is one of the most commercialised and expensive festival imho, with crazy sales and holidays. Xmas is supposedly to be a close knitted, family affair, with night mass at the local church. But with globalisation, colonisation and many other factors, Xmas is now all about gift exchanges. I don't even know how Xmas becomes so heavily focused on gift exchanges.

December  meant I'm just another 1.5 months away to freedom (hopefully) and I can start seeing the vast blueness of the sky. A long break awaits me in December (7 full days). But it also meant a totally whole new project comming up (with a tight deadline). And there's no way a short movie can be completed within a week.

Soon enough, it will be the new year, where a brand new year will start yet again. 2014, I still am not ready for you. For now, just one step at a time, please. Can I have a TARDIS to travel back in time?

December, Xmas specials of my favourite shows (think Doctor Who). This is all I'm looking forward to. The 50th anniversary was comical, nice with a feel good feeling.

Ok, I'm slow but THE 12 DOCTOR IS PETER CAPALDI

When I first heard of this, I hope he will being some Malcolm Tucker charm into the show. The show could go like this:

12:Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Clara fucking Oswin what the FUCKING FUCK have you done?!
Clara: Oi What have you FUCKING I done?
12: Don't FUCK around in the Tardis, oh you impossible fucking girl
Clara: Watch out! A dalek!
Dalek: EXTERMINATE!
12: Exter-fucking-nate me? I'll show you who's your boss with your plumbing hands and egg whisk and the fucking sound.
<12 sonic something wooden>
12: Oh, 12 fucking doctors later, and it's still fucking useless on wood.
<12 throws screwdriver to Dalek>
Dalek: You shall be fucked by our exterminate rays. EXTERMINATE! x3
12: Oh fuck
Clara: Doctorrrrrrrr....

Bad script, but I'm hoping he will sound more Scottish than Matt (no offence here). Can't wait for christmas.  

Greenfield Milk in Singapore

Although the tainted food industry had almost recovered from all the bad press and publicity in recent years, from the China infant milk crisis to Horsemeat however, we are still particularly afraid and tend to be cautious about the origin of the final product which ended up in the shopping basket.

Is this the new marketing tactics by inserting the word 'free-range' and 'organic' to prove that your product is much better than competitors? Taking the case of Greenfield Milk (which I think supplies to several Starbucks chains in Singapore), which advertised themselves in chic ad design as seen on board MRT trains.
 
So where-else does milk comes from?
 

In the past, I thought Greenfield milk is actually milk squeezed from the cows in Australia, shipped over to Indonesia where they process and package their milk for sale to Singapore. Now I think there's a changed in their supply chain, with the (happy) cows being milked in some high altitude area in Indonesia. But it seemed they aren't quite satisfied into answering queries about the cow's lifestyle and dietary conditions.

One FB user asked Greenfield questions regarding the cow's lifestyle, dietary and reproductive habits.

 Looking at the comment thread and how they claimed their milk is more nutritious than other milk from Australia, I still think Greenfield's milk is not as delicious and milky and creamy as that of Farmhouse. So, Greenfield, you're not able to convince me to buy your brand. Also, I felt Greenfield is diluted (slightly better than Meji) and the High Calcium Low fat version tasted so horrible, so for me, Farmhouse is still better than the Happy Cow BS Greenfield claimed. And would anyone drink milk that is milked in Indonesia? Some would, including me, initially. But later, I switched brands because of the price and how the taste changes from time to time, without consistency.
