How many nights had I burned? Would've counted if I've had some decent sleep. The research paper passed and now I'm on to writing it fully. 10K. If only writing it is as easy as writing stories....

Opps. I forgot plot bunnies had deserted me . T-T Someone should really shout at me for updating like once a month but I’m guessing there are only a few who read my blog and they all have first hand updates so it doesn’t really matter right?

No matter, here’s some update after the mini hiatus.

16 August, S.T.G.C.C
In which Andrew flew kites, Eugene got bored and Patrick got sand into his eyes… Well, not really but since they don’t read my blog they wouldn’t care right? Neng and I stood all throughout the cosplay competition and I thought I was going to have leg cramps. Cindy joined us a little later. We amble around aimlessly and bought lots of stuff. Not many pictures, so there’s no point posting. Oh, T.C.C for dinner was nice.

26 August, Japanese Food
Cannot remember why we met up but Cindy and I had dinner at one of Central’s Japanese restaurant. Ladies enjoy a discount on Wednesday. The set meal was quite worth it.

29 August, Steakhouse
It was supposed to be an outing with Phing, Iris and Med to celebrate my birthday. Quite a last minute thing so Med and Iris gave up. Phing and I went to have Marutama Ramen at Liang Court like I mentioned in my previous post “Eating Eating”. The standard was there and I think the Spicy Chicken Ramen tasted the same. We booked a room for two at Party World and shopped around Kino while we wait for our turn. The two of us had a lot of fun singing, no one to horde the mic, and the room given was big. They even have a leg massager inside. I was overjoyed to see Super Junior’s “Sorry Sorry” Wonder Girl’s “Nobody” and Phing felt the same with Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi” and so many songs from Britney. Dinner at Steakhouse was good. The sirloin was up to standard and the serving was actually quite big. Prices are on the “deep pockets” range so if you’re not willing to fork out your money, then do not go there. The must try will definitely be their Crème Brulee. Best in Singapore. (I don’t know about JB and Batam.) On the way back, I saw Serene and her supposed new boyfriend Bang. Which is supposed to give more ammunition for the…

30 August, Alleged gossip session slash 见家长日
My daughter has the tendency to fall in love too hard too fast. It is not on my side of the family. Serene, blame it on your other father, okay? We did not meet Bang but it turn out bad anyway. Gossip and more gossip end the night.

03 September, Singing “Happy Birthday”
To two of my sayangs, Happy Birthday~ Both Pei(s) may all your wishes come true and enjoy!

05 to 12 September, Holiday
Yes, I was in Malaysia for my birthday. Work hard and the family trip seems so much more rewarding. I bought a lot of stuff, mostly books though. Since Facebook is not cooperating with the upload, maybe I will post the pictures on Multiply… Wait, let me try again.

14 to 18 September, Major Toilet Construction
Leak downstairs caused a lot of hassle. It’s a good thing Dad’s in this line or it would’ve caused a lot more trouble in the future. Trust me, I know.

Also, Happy Birthday to Fizh!!! 又大一岁了，恭喜恭喜~

19 to 20 September, Cindy’s place
Last minute thing, but since Cindy’s parents are not in so we thought it was okay. Too bad I didn’t bring my swimming gear and Cindy’s got a paper to write on. I stared at the TV and the TV stared at me. Oh 小强’s issue ensues some time between fashion programs and water boiling… Serene and I lazily watched “Ultraviolet” as Hari Raya creeps in.

21 September, Outing
Fizh 请客！It’s been so long since we saw each other. Good food at the place he worked and lovely gossips at the ice-cream parlor. Bowling for three rounds, with substandard results though Patrick showed improvements. Dinner at “Cafeteria” was… not good. The mushroom soup had a Chinese mushroom smell and taste, the spaghetti’s base sauce tasted like Campbell’s tomato soup and looks just as diluted. My steak tasted like Chinese Stir Fry and I don’t even want to comment on the other food. The few orders that would’ve gotten a pass would be the carrot and orange juice, (how do you mess up fresh juice?) the signature dessert and the calamari rings. Oh and the black forest dessert was okay too. I vow not to order main course there again.

23 September, K.T.V
Wasted quite a bit of money because I did not get into the mood, which is kind of weird due to the fact that I love singing. Tell me why?

I may be going on a hiatus after this mini one. Major events coming up will be:

1. Edwin's Wedding Dinner (26 September)
2. Shi Dong's Birthday!!! (28 September)
3. Contract End (01 October)
4. Class Start (02 October)
5. Hui Ling's Wedding Dinner (4 October)
6. Da Jie's Birthday!!! (10 October)

我们是新加坡公民，

并为实现国家之幸福、
繁荣与进步，共同努力。
30 July
Med, Phing and I went for MARUTAMA RAMEN at The Central. For a price range of $15 - $20+ though some might consider it on the steep side, this is really good ramen we are talking about. I would recommend egg lover to try the seasoned egg. Total IBS.
Heard from Phing that the Spicy Chicken Ramen taste better here than in Liang Court's branch. Maybe I should go try it out and see if that's true.

2 August
The much anticipated T.C.C new menu is here! Cin and I shared a full course and here's the review.
Cin's usual Iced Kafello Latte, skinny without whipNew tea. Vaguely remember tasting mint, lemongrass and ginger. Smells like bubble-gum.Soup of the day: Chili Beef. 比较像华汤，instead of the usual thickness of ang moh soup. Volume of the taste still there, spicier and there's a higher presence of sweetness from all the added broad red beans and carrots. Smaller beef pieces, but an increase in meat quantity. Side-note: Ginseng Chicken Mushroom is still on the menu.Garden Salad with added Salmon. It's worth the add on, trust me. As I type, I can still feel the chilled salmon in my mouth, slowly melting. That nice? Yes. Veggies are nicely crisp and reminds me of winter morning walks. And those little biscuity pieces and bacon flakes that I do so adore. Made for the win.This pan-sheared salmon 的置盘很漂亮。墨西哥辣椒的辛辣，摆一边的综合番茄丁、微辣，略带印度风味香料，清爽的口感，很适合配着三文鱼一起吃。芥兰花, 莲藕和马铃薯的搭配很新鲜。唯一败笔，处理 芥兰花,莲藕和马铃薯的手法稍嫌油腻。A very filling dish indeed.This season's dessert style is more mousse-based. Not usually what I preferred. We have to eat this separately and it is consider a bit too sweet for me; especially the strawberry sauce at the bottom. The rest of the dessert is actually acceptable.5 August
Just goes to show this blog is turning into a food blog. Met Cin after jungle hike. We plan for T.C.C to explore more of the new menu but couldn't resist going in when we pass by. I present you, Mr. Curry!The mascot at the door.Sides, we ordered the beef wrap and it was really nice and juicy. 肉不会太老，菇类吸收了肉汁，咬下去很清甜。剩下的酱汁很好下饭。Cute! Kid's meal.Nice interior and lighting.Near entrance.Cashier.虾仁蛋包饭咖哩。蛋滑，虾肉弹牙饱满。咖哩虽然叫了最辣的等级,但不够辣。这是日本咖哩一向的特点,无法多下判断。基本上,蛮不错吃的。Chips都炸的恰大好处、面包外皮酥脆、内在松软绵密、咖哩料多实在、tempura咬下时还有汁！是个卖相可爱，分量相当的一餐。Some other random pictures we took.We are so amused by the mascot that we got the mobile straps. Cute right, Cin has Mr Curry, I own the Curry Kitty. Funny thing is, for the two mobile strap they give us a big paper bag and two pieces of wrapping paper. *sweat dropped* Oh! Cin, thanks for the birthday present, I love it! I could not tell you how many places of interest we saw; nor how much we actually see of Singapore itself. Yes, I am such fail as a tour guide. However, what I can tell you is... We ate non-stop. Between Hao's amazing appetite; Kuan's good stamina, Neng's ability to fight for the tab and my incredible 'sense of direction', I bring you, "When Cousins Come To Play!"

This is supposed to be the foot note but this is my blog so I can put it where I want it. I hope this complaint actually gets to you Mr. Tan Cher Hao. Not only did I broke doctor's orders and drank like too much, I put my ever-so-flimsy slimming plans (okay maybe a no over-eating, exercise sometimes plan) on hold and threw caution to the winds, joining you in your endless eating spree. I gained 4 freaking kilos because of you; idiot. You'd better be thankful and treat me nicer the next time I visit you, vice versa. Or else!

19 July
That aside, with people to do(?), places to see, let's get on with the show! Them Chers made it to Singapura 19 July with our Shen Shen in toll and I worked a bit as Cindy run her fats away at the Shape Run. Unfortunate for me, there's bread to consider and really I haven't have much dough left. Excited to hear about her adventure, we decided to meet after my family dinner. Hao and Kuan took showers, napped and we had a huge dinner to welcome them here. I left the house for Cindy and we walked around to Marina Square and City Link before walking back to TCC, which is kind of like our usual coffee place. We were just seated when I spotted the four guys near HMV door. Did I tell you they were tall? Formal introduction's aside, we chatted about stuff and had a bit of dessert and drinks; me acting like a true TCC fan and introducing them the good and the to-keep-away(s) on the menu. Neng went HMV and got his Girl Generation new mini album "Tell Me Your Wish". Feeling artsy, we went over to "Durians" for exhibits and the Mr. Merlion, who had an accident with lightning and the three new lighted walkie talkie at sea.Mister Merlion, who went Yun Nam Hair Care to salvage his bald patch.Yun Nam Hair Care works! Did I tell you I love you, Cin? Thanks for being there, you made being the butt of jokes bearable. We went straight for the MRT station after all that camwhoring. Oh and I get to explain to Kuan how it's impossible to miss the ERP 'In Operation' sign. Then it's Braddell Mac for supper. We introduced them the culture of studying in 24 hour operated deli because I saw Pei Xuan studying there and we had a general debate on studying in such diners / coffee houses before getting our butt to order food. Over burgers, fries, nuggets, wings, apple pies, coke, ice teas and ice milos, we discussed about the future prospect of Singapore and Malaysia. Hao's experience in the U.S was really insightful and the talks about the economic downturn and developing countries and China raising up and the big guns just made my head dizzy. Or maybe that's the lag of sleep from trying to complete my shifts before they get here talking. Or the food overdose. I don't even know anymore. Conclusion as 19 turn 20: My stomach wouldn't get any rest as Hao express his enthusiasm for 小锅面，点心，油条 and food in general on our walk home.

20 July
Too much to digest, I read through a couple of reports before felling asleep. Shen Shen and I shared the room while they were here and maybe I should just mention that I am a light sleeper. I woke in time for breakfast and Hao was amazed to see me up before him. We joined Mother and Shen Shen at 太空船巴刹 for breakfast. Hao was disappointed because 小锅面's stall wasn't open. On the menu instead was 萝卜糕，猪肠粉，鱼片汤，斋米粉，甘蔗汁，laksa and nasi lemak. Muffins for take-away. There's this thing about staying in Toa Payoh; when the Sun is up, there's sure food to be found.

After breakfast, I was online for facebook while the aunties freshen up for shopping. Precious time needed for my stomach to digest the food intake. When lazy bums Neng and Kuan finally woke, we headed to Orchard since Neng got his friend to slack with us. The link was already open so we followed and it lead us to 鼎泰丰。 I saw Hao looked longingly at the menu at the door and face palmed. Slowly, I diverted his attention and we went to Starbucks for my much needed caffeine. Our plan was to walked down Orchard all the way to Bugis to Sim Lim Square for some gadget hunt. With new malls up, our progress was slow. Speaking of new malls, there's Orchard Central. Me thinks this place is upper crust. Sofas for shoppers that got tired, posh shops, expensive looking furnishing... I also think I've found the only Geláre left in Singapore that's not taken over by E.C. Tuesday's waffles anyone?It's rare that I walked on this side of the road. As we walked towards the entrance of Istana, Hao kept interrupting my concentration on the car that drove into the entrance with questions like, "Is this where the president lives?" There goes my chance of seeing Mr Nathan... if he's in the car. These questions that I've answered every time we pass by the Istana! Once and for all, it is the official residence and office of the President of Singapore. Now will you stop asking me this question like for the one hundredth and one time. At P.S, Samsung Omnia 2 launch. Also, Singapore Food Fest, peranakan style. Right between P.S and The Atrium. Spent some time there looking at Neng's next phone-of-choice contestant number two. (Number 1 is Omnia HD) before moving on to The Cathay (not before stopping outside Sakae looking drooling-ly at their sashimi special.) Aston for lunch and what a big lunch it was. Sorry no pictures, too busy eating. We covered much ground after that, moving down Cityhall. Went Peninsula Shopping Center for shoes. People take note, there's a LMTEDT shop in the house, yo. Do drop by for your pair of trusty sneakers anytime. Then it's Funan for games and we got home in time for dinner and “爱也好，恨也好”。 Our family glued to the TV, making the visitors wonder about our pass-time seriously. TV marathon later, we explored Marina Barrage. On the way in the car we sang random songs played on the radio and talked military. Nothing confidential I assure you.

We went down and took a long stroll. The weather was nice and windy, with the undertones of moist and salt from the sea. I took my time taking pictures and enjoying the breeze. We saw a lot of couples, some soloist using the net, groups having picnic-afters; playing cards. I can see in my mind's eye evening sunsets and jogs along the bridge. It was romantic until I caught up with the boys.21 July
We were totally lost driving back. Ended up in Clementi, how bad was that. Late for home anyway, someone suggested supper. 兴旺茶餐厅 it is then. On one end of the libra was sleep, the other my weight. Seeing the way the scales tipped, my heart wept as I threw the virtual scale away. I fear for my waistline. In the house, it was a blissful 5 hours without food. Then Hao woke up. We solve ez-link matters at Toa Payoh Central. That can of worms. Good thing I dragged him to Popular for a while more before BreadTalk tempted the saliva out of him. Though I talked him out of that, we ended up in Bishan 鼎泰丰。 Some times, you just cannot win. 一笼这个，三笼那个，可想而知，又一圈了。 Neng and Kuan slept in and join us late. The breakfast ended like lunch and cost just over $100. I walked out of the place bloated and saw Hao headed straight for BreadTalk. 连吃带打包。Impressive. By the time we reached home to change clothes, he only have a "smart-aleck" left. That was gone in a minute.

Freshly fed, Bugis here we go. Explore and snooped. Walk right into the trap and the slip of tongue caused me another kilo? 南翔馒头店。We saw 蒸笼 abundant and ordered more food. By then, I've already leave my life in the hands of fate. Can you believe the 下午茶's spread? Not to mention after that we went right over the streets for 甜汤。我都饱得快吐了。The dessert store is across the street. Prior engagement with Cin. We are supposed to meet for lunch at Ghim Moh I think, 虾婆河粉 and Mongolian food。Since we cocked up the timing, we met for dinner at The Central Clarke Quay. Lost the sense of direction and arrived half an hour late. Major high was the shoe sale! But damn it! Why they don't have my size? Dinner at Waraku de Pasta. we got a cute waiter and the seats have a really good view of the Singapore River.Ponders over what to eat.Nice night view, bad jittery fingers. Code Blue for Cin means she's going to have an early night, that leaves us to explore... The Clarke Quay Food Street. Featuring traditional Straits Chinese cuisines, peranakan dishes, local delights and lots of beer, we had fun walking around looking at the people enjoying themselves as they chow down. Moving on, since the night is still young; we explored pubs and clubs and everything caught in between. Moving on to a more quiet spot, otaku(s) will love this place called Cosafé @ CHIJMES 01-11. See Neng's smile for prove. Please, please do try out their garlic bread and calamari rings. Total bagus. Also known as the place where I defy doctor's orders. So I am not telling how much we drink... Okay, maybe just one, remember the R.I.P after the series of drinks I've had; making me faint? A milder version, ladies and gentlemen, I introduce you to: Seven Sins~ Hao and I kept talking about the Bohemian revolution because of Green Fairy in our drink. Gosh, all that absinthe. Alcohol made me talk big and I took pictures with the ultra kawaii waiteress / maid. She don't walk. She bounces. Her name is Apple. We nicknamed her "the bouncing apple".

22 July
For a moment I was in the toilet and heard the usual puking and thumps. When I came out we had a show put on. There's this drunk guy and his girlfriend who took a trishaw ride and he took the horn from the uncle and started pressing the horn at him. Just ask either one of us who saw it to describe it to you. It was freaking funny. After that, we want to make sure we don't look too drunk so we walked down near Park Lane to have 豆花。 The walk made Hao realize just how much food he haven't tried. Anyway, 豆花 and talks of being old. -_-"" Kuan and Hao amazed that it cost less than $10 to get home via taxi even with surcharge. Hao was totally gone after he went to toilet. The rest of us shamelessly stayed in Sheng's room to chit-chat until he only have a two hour nap before going to school. Neng kept nodding off. Finally sleep claimed me and it was late when Hao and Kuan wakes. Neng was still asleep so we headed to market for 小锅面 and the Cher's so called 一口包。 Slacking and taking our own sweet time, we went shoe hunting and everyone was happy with their purchases. We even saw Auntie Roy along the way. Funan game hunt failed so Illuma for dinner. The maids at Cosafé way cuter. But we have fun with the fresh ordering experience.Hmm... I wonder where this leads to.The chief that is cool with his cooking utensils throwing act.We even caught a glimpse of the Japanese Fencing Team in Singapore for Youth Olympics. We are all impressed by their mask wearing skills. Like really respect. Hao wants to learn from Neng the art of catching soft toys and he paid a lot of school fees that night and got nothing. We went home after a long time at arcade as I fought valiantly over the urge that is 'Eternal Wheel' and watch them installing Jubeat, my second obsession. Neng will be off early tomorrow and I wonder will I go crazy?

23 July
We spent 23rd July at home mostly. Kuan slept all the way till noon and there wasn't much to do and I sleep too little to be of use. We explored Ang Mo Kio and I got Hao to try the curry spaghetti @ Nebo. Of course Hao try out at the machines. We saw 3 machines 'Jackpot', we were in awe. School fees paid off. Hao caught this little thing. We join Dad at Lorong 8 for 炒果条。Then, usual TV and internet. Sleep comes easier that night.

24 July
Internet. Hao have some business outside and he settles while Kuan slept the day away. I forgot how the day went but we did not travel far. Whatever.

25 July
There wasn't much, just Hao clearing his stuff and all that, we went 鼎泰丰 again. Add this two to the list we ate the other time: and arcade for some toy catching action. Hao kept missing and Kuan got fed up. I milled around playing games and when I got back to the machine, I find Hao still attempting to catch something. I told him to try other stuff as Kuan came back and he went to the machine Hao tried on. Proves Hao was all kinds of fail cause, "Tan Cher Hao you suck wey~" rang out. Here comes Kuan sashaying over with a toy in his hand. When the coins are all out, we got this: Then, we went home, pick up the suitcases and I see them off.

I have a nap and then showered to join the ladies for Korean Hot Stone. Freaking nice and near to home. Then settlers. After our usual 'Betrayal at House on the Hill' we tried a new game called Dracula.The character I use: Mina Harker We met Andrew there and he looked at me and "Ah!" Seriously, can you remember that I have the member card like before you pay!?! Too bad. LOL The game was so fun we went back for more the very next night after dinner at T.C.C. Speaking of which the new menu will be out soon! 尽请期待！

P.S: I had hell writing this up. If I get any facts wrong, it's because all of these are blurred up and I have a few more entries to write and its 4:46am. I'll just end here then. Till the next entry... I <3 this song! Especially if you hear the fan shouts with it. So high!

Another thing I <3 will definitely be my friends. I never knew so many people care. Oh and my cousins are here in Singapore. So I've to go entertain. Ciao~ I distinctly have the sinking feeling that this is becoming a food blog. Maybe I am just a glutton. What to do? Singapore is such a food haven.

We went to explore Illuma and saw Nanyang Polytechnic putting up a show for all the anime / cosplay lovers. That totally perked me up after the dreadfully long seminar. There's also the Japanese style of Marché which we are suppose to try and the new cinema.
Oh and how could I forget Eternal Wheel and the really green and lovely garden roof? We ended up eating at the American thingy. I adore this ice-cream! Banana fritters like totally rocks!The cinema is really nice and the seats are comfy. The only regret I have is not being able to choose the people I share the cinema with. I don't mind people not understanding the language but... DO YOU HAVE TO GIGGLE AT EVERY "BULLSHIT" THAT SEEMS TO BE THE ONLY ENGLISH WORD THAT YOU KNOW? It is just plain irritating. If you are wondering how irritating they are, just watch "Obsessed" and count how many times the word "bullshit" appeared. Plain annoying I tell you.Lastly, another recap on the new TCC. It looks cool. I figured I should post it here:

Channel NewsAsia - 2 hours 28 minutes ago
Singapore won’t repeal homosexual law

SINGAPORE: Law Minister K Shanmugam has said Singapore will not decriminalise gay sex but the courts have the power to decide how the law, Section 377, is applied. Section 377A of the Penal Code deems sex between men a crime.

A recent ruling by the New Delhi High Court legalising gay sex between consenting adults in India raised questions on whether Singapore might go the same way. Both countries share the same Penal Code, inherited from the colonial British.

In a dialogue with Punggol residents on Sunday, Mr Shanmugam said Section 377 will remain as homosexuality is still not accepted by most Singaporeans.

He said: "We have the law. We say it won’t be enforced. Is it totally clear? We, sometimes in these things, have to accept a bit of messiness. And the way the society is going, we don’t think it’s fair for us to prosecute people who say that they are homosexual."

But he said that while the government will not take the lead in repealing the law, the legal courts in Singapore have the power to decide how Section 377 is interpreted and applied.

Mr Shanmugam, who is also the Second Minister for Home Affairs, said the government will play a more active role in other areas, such as creating ways for new citizens and Permanent Residents to interact with the community.

But he said all parties must also make an effort. "It’s not a quick process. You can’t wave a magic wand and say, ’oh, integration takes place’. It takes many years. And why talk about foreigners? Even amongst ourselves, different races, religions — how long has it taken to get to this stage?"

During the hour—long dialogue, one resident noted that the minister had spoken of affirmative action for Malays five years ago and asked if he felt this was still necessary.

In reply, Mr Shanmugam said the community had come a long way, but clarified that he was not calling for a quota system at the time.

Instead, success must be founded on meritocracy.

Mr Shanmugam said: "We don’t talk about quotas, that’s not our approach. We don’t talk about...so many places for Malays, so many places for Indians, so many places for Chinese. That’s a wrong way to go. It has got to be meritocratic. But assuming 10 people make the cut—off, try and look for some who are also from the Malay community."

How long till we have the same freedom of being able to be that open? Good friends, good food. I love being me. (At the moment.)
We went to have ice cream at Liang Court after that. I was surprised I could still eat anything. My Macha Sesame and Med's Chocolate Pincanto. Phing had Yam and I forgot what. But its so tasty she finished it before I could think of taking a picture. Then, someone walked near me that made me double take. It's Jay! So I grabbed him LOL and found out he had not have his dinner yet. Oh and he forgot my name.

Guess that's the thing about moving on in life huh. Photo's posted, and I wrote something... Guess that's that~ How can I describe this feeling? A little bit of guilt mixed within something like love but tinted with a little something which causes me sniffles from all the feeling of being cherished and treated well of.

People must think I am an attention grabber, from all my outward, loud, hyper personality. But not many people really know me for me. Maybe I am just afraid to share that much. Like Cindy said in her previous entry, our life is like playing a game. The game of life; where every step we took is like a throw of the dice. Everyone play the same game, and the throws, whether good or bad will bring you to the end. I told her, pray hard that you don’t land in the ‘car accident’ square, or the ‘lawsuit’ one… Like it or not, the ‘throws’ were ultimately made by you, with or without anyone’s influence. I realized that thinking positively is very important, so if I made any depression statements again, please go ahead and shoot me. *grins*. The main point is that the journey is made more ‘happening’ from the people who travel with you and aren’t I glad for those.

The country was recently surrounded by illness, and the news of a great someone dying made me think really hard. Why stress over so much stuff? If we’d only relax, maybe we wouldn’t have done a lot of stupid things that we did. I was once a victim of peer pressure and stress so I know how that feels. I cannot blame it, but I do have to apologized to all the people I’ve hurt in the process. I need to thank all the people who hurt me in the process too, because without them, I would not be what I am.

Why this long speech? Well, partly because I had the time since I am not working today and also because a few things that had been going on made me treasure my friends a lot more. Recently I met my Craig baby at a café and he actually looked at me, did a double take, gasped very gaily and exclaimed, “Ah! Jo! My CD!!!” Never mind that we’ve not met for like seven years and I barely recognized him. Seriously, the whole café’s population was like looking at us then. Oh, and he hugged me. Like a bear hugging its cub, or, a murderer killing his victim. LOL Two hours later, I finally got the gist of his greeting and I was further embarrassed by his crying. Seems random to my topic? Not at all, the CD was Michael Jackson’s Thriller. Craig was so upset that he cried in a public place. Which was really embarrassing, but that’s not the point. The point is, Craig loved that man. I went back after that and got him that Thriller CD. Even though it was a birthday gift from him, but I think he needed it more than me now.

My world was surrounded by Chinese music. Had always been so since before I was born. My Mum listens to the radio a lot and she only knows Chinese. We are what you typically called a Chinese speaking family. English was not even a second language. I know Malay before I know English because my Mum’s from Malaysia. I’ve been singing Chinese and Malay songs before I even heard about English. M.J is not the one that got me to listen to English pop; I had BSB, Boyzone and Spice Girls to thank for that. However, he’s the first one that got me interested in singing in falsetto, and as you’d probably guessed; dancing. Unfortunately, I found out a long time ago that I danced like a cardboard gorilla so I stopped. But the falsetto, helped earned enough to support a kid’s reckless lifestyle back then. She’s learned a lot of life teachings from it too. So she’s grateful for that. Michael was the first to prove to me that there’s such a thing as a female voice in a guy, and vise versa. (That’s what I thought it was called, the term ‘falsetto’ I learned way later when I got into listening to opera.)

Speaking of which, I can no longer sing. The report’s out, I misused my vocal chords and damaged it. I can no longer hit notes like I used to and it made me painfully numb. I cried outside the doctor’s office.

Anyway, back to M.J. I read somewhere about this Jordan Chandler that pissed me off. He accused Michael of asking sexual favors from him. Did I mention I hate his kind? It’s considered betrayal, asshole! I hope you have nightmares, idiot. Another idiot I have to mention, Lori Drew. She should grow up. Using the net to bully someone is childish. Bullying your 13 year old female neighbor is childish. Causing her to hang herself… You are a mother too! What if it’s your child? Poor Megan Meier, losing her life so early; and the judge said, “… tentatively granting the defense motion to throw out the convictions and would render a final, written opinion at some point in the future.” Like WTF. 请还她一个公道。

Onward to another subject that almost made me cry, writing. How long have I stopped? Iwai-san, you are F.T.W.! Can I tell you how much I love you like again? I will continue writing even if you’re the only one to read my works. I promise. Here’s the conversation that got me sniffles. So this extra long entry is partly your fault too. *pouts*I did mention I don’t have many friends, didn’t I? My Mum says that’s good because she can have more tables for relatives at my wedding. *roll eyes* That’s taking it a bit too far right!?! I don’t even have a boyfriend! Like where did the comment come from? Oh, I remember, lots of second degree friends / colleagues getting married. Please don’t ask me when I am going to get a boyfriend next Chinese New Year, or God helps me…

Anyway, I am going out later to have dinner. We are going to eat crabs!!! I love seafood and I think that being a Singaporean means you have the advantage of being in the food haven so you should enjoy all the variety of food you can get here.

Last thing before I go, Girl and Boy Generation is so kawaii!!! FTW as well. Btw, SNSD’s Genie (mini album) is out. I am a happy rabbit and I am signing out~ Why get riled up by anti-fans? I've got no idea.

Controversy. Talk about broadening horizons. What is wrong about Super Junior performing Korean songs? Like Hong Kong artist doesn't perform Cantonese songs. I mean come on! I remember Sugi even performed Malay song (Bahasar Indo me thinks) on 星光。 So what kind of crap is this? Why is there a difference? Why bammed them for performing in their own language? You do know that it is their promotion period right. So they should be doing songs from the 3rd album. It's logical. You anti-fans, however, no matter how you explained it, are not.

Whatever. Why do I even care!?!
