How to have a great date and get your girl drunk?

Last week we went to Em by the River again.. there was a lovely Chinese couple at a table near us.. well, no, they weren't lovely.. funny and entertaining yes.. all we did that whole evening was look at their table and laugh... big lesson this was on how to have a great date and get your girl drunk at the same time while staying completely sober yourself.

Scene: couple are drinking wine, (also tea, water and some other drinks at the same time) The girl is talking..on and on... and the guy is barely trying to listen.
One minute later: they clink their wine glasses - The girl has a sip, the man wets his lips with wine and then has a HUGE sip of water..
30 secs later: same thing,. everytime they have a sip of wine, then clink glasses and he drinks more water than wine...
2 hrs later: She's left for the loo and he tops her drink with his own.
Man to waitress: "I want water!! MORE WATER !! "

Girl returns, same things goes on for another couple of hours...

Bloody hell!!! Do all guys do this?

Make your own Church sign


This is how bored i am today... looking at random sites and found this one...made this sign.. I'm bored

Indiana Jones and Theatre conversations

Finally went to watch Indiana Jones at the theatre the other day.. This is not the kind of movie where i would want noisy kids (or adults) around me ruining my concentration.. I tried, but couldn't help overhearing these bunch of American kids next to me.. They looked in their early teens

Kid One: The movie was supposed to start at 7, and it's still not begun yet
Kid Two: Exactly !!! I mean, WTF !!! Its been half and hour of just watching the ads..

Now i don't know how kids in the US speak, but I would think you usually abuse or you don't at all.. I've never actually heard anyone use an abbreviation of a cuss word.. You need to really imagine an angry 13yr old saying "WTF" in an American accent to appreciate why i dropped the whole packet of popcorn on the floor and was laughing for the next 20 mins (well, I'm laughing till now and its been a while)

As for the movie, well its Indian Jones.. Its made to entertain...and it was loads better than Get Smart. I guess Steve Carell either scores it big or not at all

How to save on wedding costs

Somewhere in the near futures (4 or 5 years more like it) the Boyfriend and me should be tying that knot (more like strangling as far as he is concerned) Now we don't want a big wedding, but our family & friends are big enough to occupy the entire island of Madagascar (i like to move it move it..sorry, that song just follows when i think of that country)
Anywho...this is my brilliant plan to ensure not so many guests turn up
I know he likes the plan but for the record, he does not want anything to do with it
So here goes..

I am a very bad singer.. terrible, horrible, 'scratching nails on a blackboard is better' would not be doing it justice.
So.. we will have a pre-wedding party, where we invite the people who we do not want at our wedding but have to invite either because we'll need to know them for some work later or out of social nicety and all that jazz..
At the party i announce that i will be singing a lot of beautiful heart warming songs throughout the wedding reception and then go on to sing a preview of what is to come on the big day..

If that doesn't make them want to be miles away on the wedding day, nothing will.


PS: Mom, i hope you're not reading this. If you are, well, it's true.. you're side of the family is larger than Dads

George Carlin..Rest in Peace



Just found out that George Carlin died on Sunday.. Tragic news indeed...I really liked that man's comedy... he had the balls to say things that others wouldn't or could'nt





Rest in Peace

My Darling Sister.. now the brains in the family

My Dear Harry Potter maniac of a Sister,
I hereby acknowledge that you are now the brains in the family seeing as you did loads better in your exams than i did when i gave them... (although it might have something to do with the fact that your funky college wannabe college that always aped everything mine did was much easier to sail through)

Either way... Congratulations.. and I'm proud of you

Any less that the 70+ you got and i would have had to take you along in my dowry..heehee.. ok ok kidding.

Sights and sounds of Singapore & Spain.. My Weird pics

I have a thing for taking weird pics.. funny things that I see around me

I've added a pic slide show to the blog.. these are mainly pics that I've taken around Singapore this year and some taken in Spain in mid 2007.. the not very normal ones, that is.
It made more sense that the previous "Weird pic for the week" post.. another milestone in the constant struggle to get lazier...
Will add more pics as the days go by...

About the Blog...

Once again.. It is that time of the month..when I have no work to do
Which means that I have more time to devote to the blog and generally do random things
So… I've now updated a welcome note to the blog on the top left corner with some lil wise words.. Couldn’t think of anything else to mention there so that’s about it

Cannot Lah !!! - The Harley Davidson Story

Spent most of last weekend at this pub called Handle Bar…
Nice place.. biker theme. So there were lotsa biker dudes with Harleys and other big bikes
Now the thing is.. When you see a guy on a Harley, you have an image in your head of what he'd look like and act like… you'd think he would be this macho guy n stuff.. But I forgot that this is Singapore !!!
So we're having a drink and some of these guys are standing next to our table..
And they're leaving and this was the conversation:
1st Harley Guy: "How bout we do xxxx and then xxxx thing"
2nd Harley Guy (who is this hunk of a guy replies in true Singaporean style): "Cannot lah !!!" …. (I didn’t hear what he said after that.. I was stumped on big macho guy owning a Harley saying those 2 words)
Oh Singapore Singapore !!!!

The Unnamed Child

Have you noticed that the spacebar is the only button that does not have a label on the keyboard. Why don’t they label it as "Spacebar"
Or maybe they can label it as "Pause" since it is also used as such. Are they afraid people will go to space.. or pause?
My apologies.. This is one of those days when its cold and dark outside and all the sad jokes come tumbling out
