London Bridge vs Tower Bridge

By
Now that I am back in Singapore, I am going to slowly upload my photos of my trips into my blog. :)

On the first day of my London trip, I went to visit the well known London bridge in the nursery rhyme: "London Bridge is Falling Down". What I actually saw is the new London bridge as the original one had already been taken down. (See wiki post for more info)

Side View of London Bridge
The nicer looking bridge that you might had seen in various tv shows is actually the London Tower Bridge which has 2 main towers at the side. The bottom of the bridge can be opened when a big ship is passing through.



We didn't have the time and patience to wait for that to happen so here's the photo from Wikipedia. It does looks like at night it'll be a lot prettier.. Too bad we went in summer and at night means it's going to be at least 11pm or later to get this sort of view..

 There's also an Navy Ship on display between the London Bridge and the Tower Bridge.

That's us posing with the prettier tower bridge
There's also "The London Bridge Experience" place near the London Bridge area. From the attire of the people giving out leaflets, I think it looks like some scary experience place which is under the category that I no longer feel like visiting.

Here's more photos on the tower bridge and in that area I took for your viewing :)

Monopoly Deal - A Fun Game to Play @ Chalets!

By
I felt that Monopoly Deal is really a fun and challenging game to play, especially at the Chalet. There are many rules to the game, but luckily we had a  monopoly deal rules expert with us to double-click with in event of discrepancy! I feel that it requires strategy and some form of luck to win the game. So far, I always get good property cards sets but it always get taken away 'cos I don't have the "Just say NO" card and it tend to get taken away, especially if I've a complete set. Then, I tried the strategy of not putting up a complete set, then it also doesn't really work 'cos in the end, I don't end up putting my sets on the table. Perhaps, I'll need to play a lot more times and try different methods till I get the idea right I guess. If you do have the chance, try playing that game. It's really exciting, 'cos you'll never know how long will your properties stay with you! As well as, how much money you can have in your hands. T...

Business Network International

By
I went for one of my friends' Business Network International gathering today. It's actually quite interesting, although initially, I'm quite lost. But after some time, then ok le. A new experience I should say, with a group of people that likes whatever each other is going so much and having lots of fun! The people there are really very friendly, so I shall add those that I've talked to into my hotlist then. Just that I'm not too sure if they really remember me :P But after sometime, I'll need to replace my friend for about 2 weeks so it should be ok I guess. The only downside is that. 7.30am is really a tough timing to wake up and go for the meeting. I'm glad I'm there. I'm so blessed!

Shaun Stenning - Story of the Refund Request

By
I'm merely sharing the harsh truth and facts about the refund story started by Shaun Stenning himself. My post is biased toward my personal experience so judge it yourself. First of all, there was originally a blog post in their site to tell us that there will be a refund statement or something that will be send to us some Release Agreement but nothing ever happen other than the acknowledgment email reply which I've received from Shaun: "On Mon, Jan 24, 2011 at 12:15 PM, Shaun Stenning <shaun.stenning@dollarrose.com> wrote: your refund request has been received, please note that we will not be actioning the request until 1st March 2011 when you will receive the Release Agreement Shaun" After that, I just visited that link again and it has already been removed entirely. It's now loading page not found instead. If you were me, how would you feel?
