      This morning’s breakfast at Food Court, we broke one record. DH and I had a total of 5 (small) cups of tea. The cup is Ya Kun size, each cup is good for 2-3 slips only.

      At $1.40 each cup, that’s a total of $7! I can get a box of 100 bags BOH tea for less than $7. Told DH next time I am going to bring a small thermos flask of Teh-O kosong. I don’t think it’s worth to pay so much for TehO kosong.

                Our “breakfast meeting” usually last 2 hours.

                Weekdays hardly have the opportunity to sit down and yak over breakfast.

                Another reason I suspect is food too salty. Thus, need more Teh-O kosong to flush down the salt!

                Honestly, $7 for Teh-O kosong where got worth? Plus the cups they use are really teeny weeny.

                      Agree with MKS - genes! We've always had good white lighting in our home, and we've controlled screen time strictly. My husband's myopia was very high, and mine fairly high. Both girls are myopic - one quite bad, the other like me. And the one with the more severe myopia read less, played outdoors more, was less glued to the computer... It's mostly in the genes!

                        Sort of no need to wear till now
                        I started in p4 , my parents have gd sight too , me due to bad habits , dim light, sit right in front tv , eat n read ( magazine ) etc
                        Yes genes do play half the part,the other half is daily habits too
