steaming hot!











Our Longchamps! So nice to have friends with similar bags as you! Which reminds me of our Gucci day!




Can you spot Khel's wallet camouflaged by Pet's bag? Heehee...








Off to Bakerzin for dessert!










Back home, the boyfriend relaxes his eyes!

Last night I was deciding whether to put my Civ Pro notes on my living room sofa for the exam today so that I don't confuse them with my pile of notes for the other subjects in my room. And the first thing I thought of was, "wait... if my house got burgled into, the first thing the burglar sees is going to be my notes. What if he steals them?" Then I was reminded of ying's blogpost with the article:



A thief learned the mistake of trying to steal a law student's laptop last week after after becoming a punching bag for an Arizona State student he tried to rip off. Armed with a baseball bat, the intruder, Gabriel Saucedo, allegedly climbed through an open window into Alex Botsios' apartment, waking the student and threatening to smash his head in.

Botsios was willing to let Saucedo take his wallet and guitars. Then the robber made the mistake that ultimately landed him in the hospital -- he went for the laptop. According to Botsios, he said "Dude, no -- please, no! I have all my case notes...that's four months of work!" Saucedo, obviously underestimating the fury of an overstressed, overworked first-year, was unsympathetic. That's when Botsios could take no more.

Wrestling Saucdeo to the floor, Botsios separated the bat from the thief and repeatedly punched him in the face. When it was all over, police had to get Saucedo stitched up before charging him with armed robbery and kidnapping, while Botsios only suffered some scrapes and a bruised knuckle. Most importantly, at least to the student, is that his laptop, which he called "his baby," escaped unharmed. Next time, Saucedo might want to try robbing a third-year student, as they're generally more docile.



YES I WOULD DO THE SAME THING FOR MY NOTES!!! On the day before my exam, I would rather him steal my Ferragamos than my notes (without notes --> fail PLC --> cannot get called to Bar --> cannot practise --> no money --> cannot buy shoes). I would clobber anyone who wants to take my notes to death with my stilettos.

Can you imagine the headlines in the papers?


SINGAPORE BAR EXAM CANDIDATE CLOBBERS BURGLAR TO DEATH



And worry not dear Mr Policeman, I know how to draft my own charge.


All the best for next week my friends!

:)


p/s: the Bangkok trip is off. Sad, but most importantly, I hope the people there are safe. Pray for the people in Bangkok and Mumbai yeah?
