Here's My Story

After the the purchase made with the 30% discount voucher, I purchased a drink from ZUS one more time before I stopped. I purchased their Gula Melaka latte that I loved so that my mum could try too.  Meanwhile, I continued to receive emails from them that promoted various drinks. Late last month, I received one that said the following (emphasis theirs): " Two months without you feels way too long 💔 We miss preparing your go-to order, seeing your name pop up, and being a part of your daily routine. Come back today and use 25% OFF voucher (just for you)!  🥹   💰 Just select the voucher in your wallet at checkout. Get your daily dose of happiness and save some money too! " Oh yes, I definitely followed the instructions :D I tried their Iced Coconut Cafe Latte. It was nice...if I didn't expect to taste the coconut i.e. the coffee was too strong. 

My mum and sister wanted to dine at Pho Vietz but sadly it had closed down :( So they tried this restaurant for the first time and loved it. I remembered that there was discount at the restaurant given by Grab Dineout. It was 20% first time discount + 10% loyalty discount. So, one day, I suggested to Ban to try it out since we were going to the mall to get lactose-free milk.  I ordered the lemongrass orange tea, which was refreshing and lightly aromatic. Tasted better with honey. Ban ordered the chrysanthemum jasmine tea, which was not bad but the jasmine wasn't strong enough. He took up my offer of swapping the tea since he preferred the lemongrass orange tea with honey. We both agreed that a teapot was too much for an individual. It's more suitable for tea time when you have a long chat with someone over tea and cakes.     We both had lemongrass mint chicken: his was with vegetables while mine was with aglio olio. He was indifferent to it, which means he wouldn't o...

   Why? What's its purpose and why other cars can function without them? 

Me: I'm going to Mixue. Ban: Me too! Me: You cannot! You didn't exercise. Ban: I can. I now use my kaki to jalan and now almost reach it. Me: *laughed* Mum, please rotan him. Ban: Don't want! 😂 

Why does salt appear twice in the list of ingredients? Edit: Now that I read it properly, the first salt is within the bracket which is then the list of ingredients for the first ingredient, soy sauce i.e. it is made of water, salt, soybean, wheat, preservative. 

For sometime, every now and then I received message informing me that Google is phasing out Google Assistant and replace it with Gemini. I didn't think much about it because I used Google Assistant for simple tasks such as setting alarm, setting timer and setting bedtime routine which would set alarm and play an hour of sleep music. Surely Gemini, its successor, could handle such simple tasks, right? Apparently not. A minor complaint is that shockingly Gemini takes a little longer in setting alarm. I know in absolute time, the difference is insignificant but it boggles the mind that the supposed more powerful AI performs worse than its predecessor. Gemini doesn't seem to have the bedtime routine programme and so I had to separately set the alarm and asked it to play an hour of sleep music. As for the latter (conversation isn't verbatim): Me: Please play the babbling brook sound. Gemini: Sure. Do you want me to play that on Youtube Music/Spotify? (Can't remember which on...
