I'm working at Eunos, going down to Playground @ Big Splash - East Coast Park is quite near. My favourite meal is always the Pork Rack. I love the apples toppings. As we all know that an apple is white when cut. These apples were cut into cubes and they were red like rubies. It very sweet and juicy.

I like the mashed potato that goes with the pork. They were made traditionally from blended potatoes and handmade which is unlike those in KFC. Well I didn't mean that the potato from KFC is not nice, I still love them.



Green Crystal. Special drinks the service manager made. Under low lightings, we are still able to see the crystal green liquid wit cherry at the bottom. It mint flavor. I personally don't like mint flavor unless I'm using Darlie toothpaste.

Can't remember when is the last time I've been to sentosa. Many upgrading and construction sites on my way on the tram. To reach Palawang Beach has been alot easier compared to 5 years ago where we took bus services with a couple of stops. The current tram service only has 4 stops, and I miss the old days where the monorail is slow and we were allowed to sight seeing with no windows to obstruct our view.

Though not everyone came, but we did enjoy volley ball, frisby, Girls in Bikinis and hunks. It was quite depressing that it started to rain when we took the tram. Lucky the dark clouds started to clear off after we had cleared our food feast and lots of wine. *Thanks to a few drinkaholic in the group.* HAHA

This few years, I've come to like fishing as one of my leisure activity. I always went to Sembawang Park to fish Silver Sillago or Silver Sand Whiting (Hokkien-Swa Jiam). These were small fishes and they were edible. They are relatively small in sizes, usually we deep fried them and they apprea golden crispy at dinner time, by the way, they are delicious. *Chuckle*

During my first attempt, I have trouble throwing out the bait. We normally use prawn as the bait, and every time I throw, the prawn fly out of the fishing bait. Do not think that fishing is easy, they actually requires some technique and skills to throw out correctly without losing your prawn. I find that this activity is challenging and testing your patience. Do not think that these fishes only knows how to eat, they are in fact quite smart!

After you have throw out the bait, you will need to reel in your fishing line once a while. You will eventually know when the fish is eating the bait, this is because you can feel your rod vibrating! This is so cool, then you may want to pull your rod a little, hoping you can catch that fish! Then, every time you reel in the line, you can feel the hooked fish trying to swim away. (Depending on the size of the fish, they may have greater strength to swim off. You may have to pull harder) But, this is where the patience comes in, don't be overjoyed that you had actually caught a fish. This is because during the process of reeling back the line, there are still chances where the fish will swim off. In this case either the line break, or the fish were off the hook. Only when you successfully pull the fish off the hook, then only you can clap your hands and celebrate.

Though I may not have such experience compare to those fisher, since I only go fishing for around 6-7 trips, but I did realize that during cold days, the Silver Sillago don't eat your bait. Only during a hot day, these fishes tends to swim nearer to the shore, and they seems more hungry. So, before going out the trip, do check the weather and water tides. You can find this useful web @ http://app2.nea.gov.sg/index.aspx . We are not fishing big fishes nor do we have shelters, just some small fishes here and limited equipment. Do take note that you can fish up to 3 hours, so better prepare yourself with sun block or long shirt or pants to protect yourself from being cooked by the burning sun
