healthy

Over the weekend, I had experienced many things. I was like "woah!" ok lets get this shit together. Aside my skins are getting worse I think my health are going downhill too. Lets get healthy and good looking again.

BOB

Procrastination has been my woe since forever. I've named him BOB. BOB is like a frenemy to me now. Sometimes I am glad that he is there to ensure I have rest but most of the time BOB is an ASS. Well heres a shout out to BOB. Get your shit together.

Travel

Hello! Nissin Ramen rox! Oh I am going overseas like 2 country almost back to back! Exciting much. I will update you somemore ok?

A little something something one: Kindergarden Spelling. (ASS 1)

I have to admit memories are really failing me nowadays, I really don't want to forget important memories when I get older. Its bad that I don't keep a diary at all. So I've decided to write whatever fond memories that pop in my head whenever and wherever I am. I will title the post as "A little something something." short form, "ASS". Oh god I am so hilarious tee hee tee hee "ASS", on a side note I might be a child hidden in a grown man's body. So without further ado, the first "ASS"! *I did smile a little when I typed that.

My family wasn't an English speaking family which is quite obvious with my atrocious grammar and vocab errors. So when I was in the kindergarten, its really hard for me to understand what was going on. In simple, I don't understand a damn word the teacher was talking and she wasn't those kind of teacher with a warm smile and a sort of glow surrounds her. No, she was a chubby lady with a mean looking face, I bet she can lit a fire just by staring. Everyone was afraid of her.

After the first week, the teacher wrote a bunch of words on the board and ask us to copy down. I tried my best to copy but I was too slow and she erased it and move on to the next subject. Those words are for spelling and I got zero for it the next day. When I return home, my grandpa saw it and questioned why I got zero. I told him I copied too slow and I didn't know that was for spelling. So my grandpa confronted the teacher and she realise my difficulties then she paid much more attention to me (meh). Well thanks to grandpa I finally understand what is going on and I always got myself full marks in spelling in kindergarten. ( I sort of cried when this one time I got 80 marks, I am a wimpy kid. )

Thank you ah gong. I miss you.

Google adsense first payout! / Egg painting competition.

Its been quite awhile since I joined adsense program. Finally, I got my first payout!


Yeah!


Woots!


The cheque!


Closer look! Yes, I am Derrick.

I want to thank you guys for making this possible! Moolah!

------------------------------------------------------------

Derek invited us to join this egg painting competition in downtown east, its free anyway so we have nothing to lose ( except our pride ).

As expected the place was pack full of children! Ha! We are so going to win this competition.


Derek loves free stuff.

So we were given each a box of oil based paint and we can take them home after the competition. Gabriel, Lilian shared one box and Derek and me shared another box so we each have one unopened box. ( We are smart! )


Free paint and fake eggs!

The objective was to paint 3 eggs, one following the example egg on each table then paint the other two with the theme of family and downtown east. We were so darn competitive, we took the longest time to paint the first egg and its not even going to be judged! Only one egg from each table will be submitted to judge, if the egg won the table will win prizes. We were so dumb to be concentrating on our first egg! We rushed through our second egg and give up on our third egg. Derek's egg were chosen to submit. So did we win? Drum roll please.... no! We didn't win any prize! I tell you the competition was rigged! The winners have downtown east logo painted on it! Just like there are serial numbers on our voting slip. (If you get this joke tell me you get it in the comments =X)


My eggs.

It was fun while it lasted. After the competition, we went to escape theme park. Derek said NTUC is going to tear down the place and build more chalets, the entrance is free now and you can pay and take the rides you like.


Barren.

OMG! Its so empty even though its on a Sunday! Very sad! The last time I went when I was like 16 years old, its the most hip place! Now its like ghost town!


Rundown!

If you want to have the nostalgic feeling please go and visit it before it gets tear down. Its free entrance anyway.

We had our dinner at Justacia and ordered lots of chiwanmushi, it cost 1 dollar each if you order a set meal.


Nom nom nom..

And that pretty much ends our day in downtown east.

PS: The MC during the competition kept using words pun like "egg-xiting, egg-travaganza and egg-cellent" woah really hear liao your ears can bleed.

Random me.

Games I am playing.

Pokemon black ( Not ghetto version )
League of Legends ( My in game name is losty, do add me up )

Books I am reading.

Life of Pi ( Let me finish this book please! )
Chronicles of Narnia ( I am stuck with the one about the boy and the horse, I don't like it and I don't want to skip it ohhh the agony )

Upcoming events.

Nothing ( Because I have no life )
Oh wait wait I am suppose to hit the club tonight. Please let it be more fun than watching paint dry.

So whats up with you guys? Leave a comment or ask me out, you know since I have no life and all.

Morning Glory!

I was invited to a preview screening of the movie " Morning Glory " by omy.sg , ok I was just trying my luck replying email about this to omy.sg and surprisingly I got it. It was held in The cathay grand theater and its really grand!


If you squint your eyes a little, it would look like I took this picture with Nikon SLR 6573546541.

For about 2 hours or so we were staring at this flower.


Its so mesmerising.

I am joking but it will be pretty funny if we were really staring at the flower for 2 hours.





Trailer

--------------------------
Synopsis:

From director Roger Michell ("Notting Hill," "Venus"), producer J.J.Abrams ("Felicity," "Alias," "Lost," "Star Trek"), and writer Aline Brosh McKenna ("The Devil Wears Prada," "27 Dresses"), comes "Morning Glory," a new romantic comedy set in the hilarious and dysfunctional world of morning television. Rachel McAdams, Harrison Ford and Diane Keaton star along with Patrick Wilson and Jeff Goldblum.

When hard-working TV producer Becky Fuller (McAdams) is fired from a local news program, her career begins to look as bleak as her hapless love life. Stumbling into a job at "Daybreak" (the last-place national morning news show), Becky decides to revitalize the show by bringing on legendary TV anchor Mike Pomeroy (Ford). Unfortunately, Pomeroy refuses to cover morning show staples like celebrity gossip, weather, fashion and crafts – let alone work with his new co-host, Colleen Peck (Keaton), a former beauty queen and longtime morning show personality who is more than happy covering morning "news." As Mike and Colleen clash, first behind the scenes and then on the air, Becky's blossoming love affair with fellow producer, Adam Bennett (Wilson) begins to unravel – and soon Becky is struggling to save her relationship, her reputation, her job and ultimately, the show itself.

*from the movie synopsis
----------------------------


" I was Indiana Jones! "

Harrison ford did a great job acting as a grumpy old man. His portrayal of the character was so real that it makes you wonder whether he acted this way in real life. I mean he was so much pain in the ass that you just want to plug something up his.


" Hell to the no! "

Rachel McAdams, she did great too but somehow over shadowed by Anne Hathaway in this kind of character. Actually, I didn't know who she was until I wiki-ed her. She was in " Sherlock Holmes ", " Mean girls " and " The hot chick ". She turned down the offer to be cast as the lead in " Devil's wears prada " ( siao one ).


"Tee hee!"

Diane Keaton, I love her character so much! I like aunties who are crazy enough to do crazy stuff. She god damn kissed a frog and sumo-ed someone on the street.


"What? Again?"

Jeff Goldblum was being Jeff Goldblum. I don't know, its just that all his characters are so similar. I guess you can say he is good at it.



Patrick Wilson, ha! Bet you didn't know who he was! He was the owl guy in the " Watchmen " ( aka Watchbluemen ). I especially like his bewildered expression when he realise he is dating a workaholic.


" Haven't you heard? Britney can dance! "

The humours are not over the top funny but it works and it works really well. To me, the supporting characters are the real stars here, they are so quirky and fun to watch. Even though how everything works out in the movie are predictable, its still very heart warming and makes you leave the theater with a smile.

Knowing that its the same screenwriter of " Devil's wears prada " its kind of expected to find resemblance between the two movies. From job hunting to dealing with crazed colleagues or boss, its all so prada-ish. Ok, that is if you watched " Devil's wears prada " if not you will certainly enjoy the movie through and through ( I enjoyed it ).

PS: When I was seacrhing for the movie poster, I found this.

Its so seductive!

Food galore!

I am hungry. So I started looking at pictures of food to curb my hunger. Apparently, it didn't work. I cooked a bowl of instant noodles after this. =(


Steam boat is everywhere!


Like I said everywhere.


Hmm juicy steak.


Salmon says eat me!


Curry hurry.


Curry chee chong fun is like one of the best curry dish I ever ate. I still remember eating it in my school canteen. Sadly its not sold everywhere. I had this one ( picture ) in Malaysia.


Macau's curry is good too!


I love eggs. I love noodles! This is the ultimate combination since I cook instant noodles with 2 eggs!


Macau's egg tart. Sadly, I dropped it after taking pictures of it.


Strawberry cheesecake!


Watermelon and honeydew sago! My fav dessert ever! I am not really a dessert guy but this one I would kill for it.


Nandos' rice is weird.


Quail egg, good. Fried quail egg, better. Fried quail egg with mayonnaise, godly.

Here is my all time favorite! I could eat it everyday all day! Drum-roll please. *boom boom boom boom


Tada! Oh godly bak chor mee why art thou so pretty.

PS: I didn't salivate when I did this post. * slurps.
PSS: Pokemon black/white is really fun!

Death.

A decade ago, when I was out with friends, one of my friend got a phone call about her friend committed suicide. I was sad not because the outing was kinda ruined but because someone pass away just like that. Last month, an ex-schoolmate of mine pass away in a car accident. When the news got to me on facebook ( Thank god for facebook ), I was like dumbfounded. I was sad even though I didn't really know him back in school. I went to his profile and saw photos of him smiling and all, I got even more sad. When my grandpa pass away, I cried the whole night. Even my father who was still joking in front of relatives secretly cried when everyone left. Death is a sad sad sad thing. I am not very good with death in general.

I've always had this fear of my loved ones ( family and friends ) had a fatal accident and I only get to know about it days later. I want to know. I want to know first hand and I want to be there in the hospital waiting for the good news. I am also afraid that if I were in a accident and all my friends didn't know about it until much much later too. I am not very close with my friends' family and they are not close to my family either. It worries me.

So if you are my friend ( have to at least know my number ), please I beg of you to have a card that lists down name and numbers of your friends ( including me of course )in your wallet or with your family members. I don't care if you put my name next to " This guy owes me money ", just list me down! The next time we go out and if you show me that you had the card/list in your wallet, I will buy you ice-cream or dance for you. Your choice! You can't have both though.

STOMP is crazy!

I am not talking about STOMP the musical/dance sensation.


The black woman is working real hard.

I am talking about Straits Times Online Mobile Print (http://www.stomp.com.sg/index.html) an online portal for Singaporeans to mingle and discuss about the latest news, created by none other than SPH our local press. As we all know it newspaper ain't going to last with the technology boom( Ahem internet ), I guess STOMP is an attempt to tap into the internet market for our local press. So what is wrong with it you say? Well nothing much except for one segment of the web portal, "Singapore Seen".

"Singapore Seen" is a platform whereby everyone is a journalist, just take a photo, send and voilà! You've just contributed a piece of news! Some of the stories are actually good reads and some of it are plain stupid. The stupidity of the people sending such stupid stories can't be measured by elephants. They are crazy I tell ya! I hand picked some of the stories that I find it stupid and you can be the judge of it.




He/she says that the woman didn't do a thing but the irony here is he/she took a picture and upload to STOMP didn't really help either. Why not go to them and say its dangerous? No, its easier to take photos. What an ass. Imagine there is another person took a picture of him/her taking photo of kids and send it to STOMP titled "Man/Woman take picture of kids playing on tree branch and upload to STOMP instead of going up to warn them.". Does that prevent the kids from falling? No. How about another person take picture of the person taking picture of the person taking picture of the kids. Woah! Matrix!


I am not sure why is this a piece of news. Stupidity to the max!



Did I mention about stupidity? If you find the bowl dirty then stop eating the food! OMG! Pig organ soups are some what clear or cloudy looking. Its easy to spot the stains on the bowl. Why? Tell me why? Why? Why do you still eat it?!



This one here is a winner. The guy who contributed the story was outraged for having a ticket issued to him, he claims that he was parking at the hump and not the zig-zag line ( In Singapore, you can't park on zig-zag lines. ). How idiotic this guy can be? He is clearly obstructing the road and that alone will guarantee his ticket. Trying to be smart ass finding loophole. Fail to the max!

Apparently taking pictures of couple kissing in public places are considered news. You will see tons of them in "Singapore Seen". Most of the people in the comments find it ok but the contributors think otherwise.



So the person just stare at them for 20 whole minutes?



In the picture, all I see was everyone is minding their own business except for you Jason. You bloody stalker.



Taking pictures of others without their consent is also setting a bad example for the kids. Do you want your kids to whip out their phones and start taking pictures of everybody? That would be public nuisance! Stupid aunties.



If you don't want your kids to see this stuff then don't bring your kid out! If you want to bring your kid out then expect this kind of things. Your kid maybe an emperor to you but to others is just some brat with shitty parents. Besides without such behaviors your kid wouldn't be born in the first place. So be thankful.

Anyway I've decided to contribute some "news" to the website.





I am not surprise if it had been posted before. So beware! Someone might snap a picture of you breathing and upload it. Stupidity are everywhere and they are infectious.

PS:All of the screen-shots are taken from said website except for the last two. I made them.

PSS:Don't ask me why am I in a blonde wig. Its too painful to recall.
