Cost saving week

Yes, I am going on a special diet program cost saving week. Purpose is to save some moolah for a trip to Reno or Tahoe next weekend. Let's see how I do...

Woke up late today so I skipped breakfast.

Then lunch today was some leftover dinner from 2 nights.
Some Hong Kong style fried noodles.

So this is dinner for tonight...

Dem! Instant noodles taste so much better when I am travelling.
Tom Yam noodles is soooo hawt! ;) I guess this is better than ISA food.

Eczyma attack

One of my worst fears when I am travelling abroad is when eczyma attacks. The lack of humidity here has made it even worse for me! Bloody dem itchy !!!

Meanwhile, I am watching and waiting for David Blaine's dive of death.

And on the other channels, Bush addresses Americans to bailout Wall Street with $700 billion.

While I am eagerly waiting for the Presidential debate, McCain wants it to be postponed.
