"Free room for attractive women", anyone?

Oh hai iz me.
Today I'd like to share an ad that I came across while I was searching for a room on craiglist:

Free room for attractive woman (east coast)


Date: 2011-12-05, 9:06AM SGT

I'm a US expat with an apartment in the east coast. It's a short walk to Eunos, Marine Parade, Katong, etc. The apartment building has a security gate, pool and parking.I travel frequently and usually spend half the month out of the apartment. It would be yours for that time. While I'm staying there I would like someone to offer very friendly services. ;) You would still have you own room and space and can come and go as you please.
Looking for someone attractive, trustworthy and who likes to have some fun in bed. Open to any age and race provided you're cute.
No pic no reply.
-------------------------------------------------------------

Now say with me: WHAT THE HECK?!?!?!
Oh, I've also came across an article discussing about why most Asian guys prefer Japanese women. They interviewed a few Asian men (Thai, Malaysian and Mongolian) who has been living in Japan for a few years. While I do agree with the good points on the Japanese women, I find it insulting that they find other Asian women for being 'too strong' and 'assertive'. Seriously???

Looks like the feminist need to work hard on this :P

The more touristy side of London

Disclaimer: I started this after the first post for UK haha
----------
Obviously my previous post doesn't look like I was on holiday at all. Looks more like I was hanging out with my bff in my own country hehe. So today I'm going to cover the touristy part, which I did in one day (-_- ; )

Buckingham Palace. Checked! NOT IMPRESSIVE AT ALL.

The statue in front of the Palace. It's a very mediocre statue! See how magnificent I made it look! *Impressed by own skill haha
Two people dressed for different seasons (-_- ; ) All the clothes I brought there are for chilly spring and it turned out to be the hottest April in London's history (source: news) (-______- ) Luckily I took off my leggings before leaving the house! And mind you I was wearing UNIQLO HEAT TECH long-sleeves *woe is me.
Ice-cream to the rescue!
After this photo I took an exact same photo for SY and right after that I screamed EWWWWWWWW - I realised she kept a distance from the wall because of the bird poo, and look how tightly I was hugging it!!! EWWWWWWW. What's with me and bird poo huh?!?! (Disclaimer: those are stains.. but still.....)
Saw these flowers in the park (obviously i forgot the name of the park -.- ) I think they are very cute! Looks like those velvet flowers haha Also looks a little bit like sakura... (i hope nobody jumps out and say, hey, THAT is sakura -.- )
Trying to find our ways to the Big Ben. (-_- ; ) If there's one thing you need to know about us, it's that both of us aren't very good with directions LOL Once I came out from a shop and turned to the wrong directions without knowing it - until i turned around and saw SY and her bf standing near the entrance with a WTH face and the bf said: Now I know why you 2 are best friends. (-___- ; )
London phone booth, checked! LOL Being touristy, remember?
(Disclaimer: the following statement might cause nausea:)
I kinda think this photo looks like a magazine shoot nyehehhhe
Big Ben, checked. We took like a  million photos with stupid poses before we are even near Big Ben itself LOL It's quite embarassing..but oh well,I don't live there haha Oh and if you think this is an Asian thing then you're WRONG! I saw some hot caucasian babes (adding the word hot just to bring the whole image up lol) doing very dramatic poses at the phone booth!
err, approaching Big Ben haha
Big Ben, checked twice!
The London Eye, checked! (from afar...)
Londo Eye, otherwise known as "Neh-the-one-that-Singapore-copied-just-so-they-can-claim-no.1-again" hehe There's a story behind this photo..
Saw the two couple behind giving us the look? Actually the guy was taking photos of themselves like us and we were taking our photos from the side, then we realised his position is the best so we walked to the front and took it, maybe that's why he was like, WTF? haha
Hungerford Footbridge! (pretending I know what i'm talking about..)
Oooh I remember this place but I forgot its name haha. I think we were walking on the second floor of a station when we saw this and I found it very quaint so we went there...
Decided to have high lunch (lunch @ high tea timing LOL) at this Italian restaurant where I discovered this yummy Italian beer! (No this wasn't mine, i ordered Coke Light btw lol)
And right after I took this photo for her, a group of very cute guys came in mwahahha Luckily we finished taking photos before they came in.
(Disclaimer: the following statement might cause nausea:)
Because they checked us out *shy LOL
Erm, London? WTH
Just to prove that I was there during the The Royal Wedding!
Met up with SY's bf whose first task was to take a photo for us haha. FINALLY IT'S COLD ENOUGH FOR MY LEATHER JACKET TO MAKE ITS APPEARANCE!
Had the most expensive meal throughout my whole trip, and it's not even worthwhile!
 (even both of them thought it's expensive okay). I think we only had a paella, some tapas and sangria and the bill came up to about 90pounds (-____- ; )
THIS is why we had to pay so much. This paella is 20+pound but we missed out the small note saying "Min order: 2 person" (-___- ; )
Looks like we were pissed about having to pay for overpriced yet mediocre meal LOL
Good food bad food, it doesn't affect our camwhoring session haha.
On our way home. Forgot why I requested for a photo here. Oh yea, it's cuz we are vain haha
At Chinatown. Check out the awkward leg lift haha. I taught SY how to do 'natural poses', the ones Cat and I learnt from the tourists we saw in Paris haha
Performing Chinese Opera in front of Chinatown. You know, the one where they sway their hair like a windmill.
We asked for a photo of us in the double-decker bus (just realised they have this in Singapore too -.- ) and this is what the bf gave us. He thinks this shows very clearly that we were on a double-decker, with the view and all. But we weren't happy with it, in fact we despised it HAHA Why? BECAUSE WE ARE TOO SMALL IN THIS PHOTO.
Now this is more like it :P

Little Venice? Pfffft!

I was browsing through my post list and realised that I've finished 70% of this post few months back so I thought I might as well finish it today hehe.
-----    -----
So this was THE day that didn't start off well....I shall not disclose the details here but Cat knows nyehehe.
So we went to Camden Town, and to be honest I hate that place.
Because I hate crowded places (-_- ; )
Some of the building decor were quite cool though.
I like this!
I may hate the crowd in Camden but I certainly do not hate the food market there hehe forgot where this pork dish is from.. prob some exotic european country. They gave us some sample and it was surprisingly very good so we ended up buying it. Actually it sort of taste like chinese food...
The African goat curry which I felt quite skeptical initially because it is.. GOAT. But turned out to be very good too, doesnt taste goat-y.
And this is what I love the most in Camden, CHURROS!!! It is not like those normal churros, look at the caramel chocolate sauce oozing out from it! So yummy! I have photos of me eating it but they look quite obscene, actually this one is not that nice either but still it's better than having me IN an obscene photo right hehe.
Later we walked to "Little Venice" which was soooooooo disappointing. I actually think it's an insult to Venice haha
It was so deserted........granted, it was a  public holiday but still.....! I think Chao Phraya is better than this (wait, that's Chao Phraya rite? -_- )
The prettiest sight in "Little Venice" Actually I quite like the serenity, but it'd be better if there were cafes for us to chill out...

Passed by this door when we were leaving. Love the sun rays!
Now what you need is me posing on the right side of the picture *sigh
Saw this plant on our way to Little Venice. They look so yummy!! Like those sugar-coated blackcurrant flavored Ricola or something hehe
Then we moved on to Hyde Park! (because we had nothing else to do before dinner. -.- )
First thing first, ice-creams and photo LOL
Highlight of the day - took millions of photos in Hyde Park.
But it's the complete opposite for SY's BF. Because obviously he had to take photo for us haha. He was so lazy to move that he asked us to go further so he could just take photos from where he was sitting (-_- ; )
Just for the record, I found this first hehe. And coincidentally a couple was making out at the back LOL
Yup, definitely the happiest moment of the day so far haha
My nemesis surpassed me when it comes to posing....I was the one who took this because this is the point where her bf decided to abandon us and said: Eh you guys are so embarassing lah. I'll wait for you guys over there *points at a bench some 1000km away*
I love the ice-cream van over there!
I don't know why we were so happy! One thing for sure is we'd already asked her bf to take photos for us on the train haha
This is us discussing whether her bf had already started taking photos.
This is us posing for it hahaha I looked very annoyed
We went to a restaurant near her bf's office...which is also near the Tower bridge or something.
jeng jeng jeng, yummy American for dinner!
They've been here several times but they never notice this piggy door knob! *gasps
Pulled pork burger, served in American style..unsophisticated haha
some buffalo wings and pork ribs! We had another serving of buffalo wings. I'm so thankful that I didn't stay in the USA for long -_-
Err wheat beer? Very light and refreshing!
Ending this with a picture of us with our cool beer and a guest appearance of her bf's sissy-looking beer haha (he made that remark himself, guys and their egos!)
