Yesterday
I met dear at Somerset before walking to River Valley Close for casting .
It was really quite far and inacessible . Worst , the weather was really warm and we were sweating like mad .
Initially , i thought it was an office so i brought dear along with me . At the end , it's the agent's house . I feel abit akward about this .
Poor dear that he had to sit through 2.5 hours for the whole thing to finish .
I was spending most of the time recording the video for self introduction . It is easy to say it the first time , but never easy for repeating again and again .
Ultimately , I got it right after at least about 5 times .
Introducing myself in Mandrain is much more easier as i won't tend to forget the words that i want to say . But it's kind of hard to say what interests you have .
Hopefully , i can get the job . No harm earning some money for myself , though i would prefer rovering jobs .
Thanks dear for accompanied me for the day , it's boring but he waited patiently . That's so kind of him .
After casting , we went to grab a bite at lido before going back to Yishun . We had dinner with his mummy and i went back home afterwards .
Today
I was late for meeting dear as there was a heavy downpour around noon . We went to Long John Silver for lunch before going to AMK for fish spa .
Luckily , we didn't lost our way . It's easier to go then we have expected .
Dear was kind of impatient today , which makes me really pissed off . He prefers asking people for direction while I prefer to check it out on my own .
Whatever it is , we managed to find the destination with the thanks to the landmark around us . My sisters are kind enough to check for us .
The place is called Toothless Fish FootSpa .
More information about fish spa:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_fish
Doctor fish is the name given to two species of fish: Garra rufa and Cyprinion macrostomus. Other nicknames include nibble fish, kangal fish, little dermatologists and doctorfishen; in non-medical contexts, Garra rufa is called the reddish log sucker. They live and breed in the outdoor pools of some Turkish spas, where they feed on the skin of patients with psoriasis. The fish are like combfishes in that they only consume the affected and dead areas of the skin, leaving the healthy skin to grow, with the outdoor location of the treatment bringing beneficial effects. The spas are not meant as a treatment option, only as a temporary cure for symptoms, and patients usually revisit the spas every few months. Some patients have experienced complete cure of psoriasis after repeated treatments, but due to the unpredictable nature of the disease, which is strongly influenced by endogenous factors, this may simply be regression towards the mean.
Garra rufa occurs in the river basins of the Northern and Central Middle East, mainly in Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran. It is legally protected from commercial exploitation in Turkey due to concerns of overharvesting for export. Garra rufa can be kept in an aquarium at home; while not strictly a "beginner's fish", it is quite hardy. For treatment of skin diseases, aquarium specimens are not well suited as the skin-feeding behavior fully manifests only under conditions where the food supply is somewhat scarce and unpredictable.
They are used to help treat patients suffering from various skin disorders, including psoriasis and eczema, since the fish will eat and remove any dead skin.
Reviews:
I really love it alot . First time putting in your feet in , you will feel damn ticklish . I couldn't stop laughing for the first 5 minutes . But after you get used to it , the fishes' nibble will feel like vibration .
They really bite off your dead skin , especially those at your heels . Though it's not as clean as those at pedicure , it's good enough for me as mine dead skin are usually quite thick , so 45 minutes are not enough for me .
I think it's a good experience and i will definitely go there again .
This place is not the cheapest rate . Qian Hu Fish farm at Choa Chu Kang area has the lowest rate and have shuttle bus to the place . But it's kind of far for me .
