Weekend Wonder...

I hosted for 2 different events over the weekend... Explorer Kid Amazing Race at Downtown east on both saturday and Sunday morning.. and voice-over for CK Tangs 75th Anniversary.



For the former, it was quite a terror travelling from CCK to Pasir Ris, and back again!! gosh. Thank God for PSP. But it was reaaaaallly nice hosting that event cos the families there were so enthusiastic!! And as usual, kids were just sticking to me... hahaha but they were adorable. Okay, most of them were. Think the superlative on facebook that Charlene gave me was true... that i'm "Most Likely to get marriage proposals from 6-year olds" hahaha anyway I had fun! hope to host for them again soon!





The VO for Tangs was fun too! One of the few times i remain in the shadows while making announcements... usually i'm upstage. However the only people who got to go upstage were these 3 ladies, named the Dreamgirls, who were engaged to perform for the event. Here's a video of them. Check it out~





Something pissed me off. Big time. I was going home on saturday night... boarded the bus 190 from opposite Far East Shopping Centre, headed to the last row to sit down. There were 2 seats to the right that were empty. The guy sitting in the centre had to make way for me to sit on the seats. The moment i sat down, my butt started to feel cold, and wet. F**k! i sat on air-conditioning condensed water. I move to the seat next to it, and it was wet too! I got off the seat, and asked the guy in the centre: "The seats wet?" although i already knew the answer to that one, but i wanted to see if HE knew about it. STUPIDLY, he said "Yeah, they're wet..." i mean WTF?!?! and he couldn't be BOTHERED to warn me before i sat down!?!?! wouldn't any NORMAL person at least warn anyone who intends to sit there??? Whatever happened to courtesy, to being nice, to bloody having some conscience???

Anyways...*inhales deeply to calm thyself*... i saw this video on youtube... and it's about this swedish female gameshow host and how she puked while hosting the show. Have a look. No i'm not poking fun at her.



Apparently she was having menstrual discomfort at that pt in time, and usually it makes her nauseous... But look at the way she carried herself. Impressive. professional. She endured the discomfort to host the show, and when shit hit the fan (or in this case, vomit hit the floor), she still remained composed. Respect.

The Kid in all of us...

I was hosting a kids central event over the weekend at United Square... i just suddenly paid more attention to the the families and the cute little kids there. Really heartwarming.

Kids. Irritating as they may be, they are innocent... and their laughter and tears unstained by the complexities of life.

All they want is attention. Is to have fun... and laugh. I think that's the core of our being. That's why they say there's a kid in all of us. The child is really the purest form of humans.



Such cute kids... they were jumping all over... just wanting to have some fun. So many of them come up to me and say "excuse me, are we going to play somemore games?"... some might find that irritating, but i look beyond that to understand his/her motivation. U'd realise that they're just emoting something that's true. that is raw. Something we don't see, nor cherish anymore.

Find your inner kid. Find your purest form.


My brother Justin celebrated his 32nd birthday over the weekend. The whole family had dinner at Magarita's. Poor Justin had a fever while we were having dinner. He was really out of sorts. poor guy. Nonetheless, Happy bday bro!

Jonny Angel: the Master Illusionist...

Learned this new trick online! check it out!




COOOL... hahaha... ok lah NOT THAT AMAZING LAH. Somehow Chris Angel seemed so much cooler when he was doing it. Must be the hair.

I've always wanted to be a magician actually. But i'm very bad at performing tricks. most of the time i always give the secret away while performing it. Sigh.

Oh hey David Copperfield's coming to S'pore on the 2nd & 3rd Nov! anyone wanna go watch him?? He's a legend, man! Remember when he made the Statue of Liberty 'disappear'? Respect, yo.

Some 'SHOCKING' news...

I was doing some research for my radio show and chanced upon this piece of quirky news... i guess it really 'struck' me. hehehe


Biker's penis hit by lightning

A Croatian motorbiker's penis was zapped by lightning as he stopped beside the road to take a leak.

Ante Djindjic, 29, from Zagreb, said: "I don't remember what happened. One minute I was taking a leak and the next thing I knew I was in hospital.

"Doctors said the lightning went through my body and because I was wearing rubber boots it earthed itself through my penis."

Djindjic, who suffered light burns to his chest and arms, added: "Thankfully, the doctors said that there would be no lasting effects, and my penis will function normally eventually."

Hey, for all you know, this would literally charge up his sex life. His gf would be electrified.




I also came across this website about how to talk like a pirate... and here's a common pirate lingo defined:

Arrr! - This one is often confused with arrrgh, which is of course the sound you make when you sit on a belaying pin. "Arrr!" can mean, variously, "yes," "I agree," "I'm happy," "I'm enjoying this beer," "My team is going to win it all," "I saw that television show, it sucked!" and "That was a clever remark you or I just made." And those are just a few of the myriad possibilities of Arrr!


Well me matey, time for me to hit the ol' sack. Arrr...

Jonny the Riddler?

Today Corrine msgd me and desperately asked me for a riddle.... Hahah i thought she was going through tremendous stress that she needed some lame shit to calm her down... but apparently it's cos she needed to 'contribute a riddle' during her office party. Don't really know what that means, but I'm amazed that my riddles are recognized enough to be used in public/social settings. MUAHAHAH. i'm the king of the world! Soon, they will start putting my riddles into O level MCQs! then, the prime minister will use them in National Day Rallies! Maybe J.K. Rowling would write a book of " Harry Potter and the Riddle of Bewilderment". Next, philosophers would ponder over them, each coming up with their own interpretation that would spurn generations of followers... all of them brought down to their knees by questions that couldn't even make a hyena laugh. Such is the power... of the riddle. Heed my warning, and heed it well. hehehe

Just watched Bleach episode 141. So touching. and so saddening. It's always heart-wrenching to leave behind people you love so much, especially when the circumstances are unfair. What if you only could say goodbye (forever) to only ONE person in this whole world before you leave... and the worst part is that the person won't be able to hear or see you when you're saying farewell...

Oh and HAPPY BIRTHDAY Louis!!! thanks for being you. You're such a great guy. May all ur wishes come true! *MELODIC tune* hahahaha

Why did the robber pour ice over himself??
COs the policeman told him to "FREEZE!"

Balls of Furry???

HAhaha yeap that's what Liling calls it (by accident. not intentional)... Balls of Furry. Hahahha sounds so wrong. It's actually Balls of Fury, the latest slapstick movie out in cinemas... Watched it with Janet, Shumei and Liling. Oh gosh i missed them so much. And it was so good seeing them again. Laughed so much... before, during and after the movie! Had a great time.

When i got home and thought back to the movie... i kinda deduced that, one way to find out if someone really can get along with u.. is to see if u both have the same sense of humour. Like, does he/she laugh as hard as u at a particular scene in the movie? Or is she or he the only one who seems to understand all ur attempts at jokes... that sorta thing.


Go watch Balls of Fury! Especially you don't mind a weak plot but with LOADS of hilarious moments. Funny stuff. Hehhe. Oh and Maggie Q is unbelievably HOT.

Thanks Janet, Shumei and Liling for meeting up!!! love u girls!

Oh anyway here's a riddle for you, that i'm sure some of you have heard b4: Which 2 types of peanuts are most likely to catch a cold?

The Weekend Warrior strikes again!!

Yeap. The Weekend Warrior. That's what my girlfriend calls me. Do little to no exercise during the weekdays, then overexert myself on the weekends... then for the next whole week i'd be limping around due to my sore muscles or my minor injuries sustained during the exercises.

Saturday:

Went to play soccer (finally after who-knows-how-long) at redhill... the weather came crashing down midway thru our game, soaking us to the skin... but we still went ahead and played. Fortunately the sun came up again... so we didn't have to keep wiping our eyes to see where the ball was. I had a GREAT game! Very very fun. really took a toll on me though...

At night, sherms and i went for the $10 dance classes offered by Esplanade! the dance we learnt was Swing! hahah we were rather excited! Great thing that the class didn't disappoint! The male instructor was funny! Too bad i couldn't take any pics...

What a way to celebrate our 1.5-year anniversary!!! hahah happy anniversary darling!

Sunday:

Played tennis in the morning with Malik and Charlene at Jurong Country Club. It was their 1st time playing!! haha soooo fun! Too bad Chao couldn't make it cos his neck was painful... same problem last week. (but for some STRANGE reason he could play soccer just yesterday??)

Anyways the whole thing was really fun! Malik was learning really fast... and Charlene.. well.. she tried her best (as u can tell from the video, showing the early stages of their training). Hhahahaha. Looks like she's gonna have to stick to rollerblading. Hahaha.

Here are more pics of each of us... Charlene commented that in that pic she actually looked pro... although in reality she sucks. hahaha

Coolness! hope to get malik to play with me again sometime soon if possible! =)

Then at night, my family and I went to Newton Circus (Yes the place with all the seafood stall owners soliciting for business) for dinner! ATE SO DAMN MUCH! ughhh.

On the palates were hokkien mee, chicken wings, popiah, fried rice, satay, stringray, fish dumpling soup... and capping it off with burbur chacha.

here's a picture of my bros. It's a little blurred, but that's ok. Prevents SOMEONE from getting too excited over my big bro... (yes Faizal, talking abt you here.) hahahha

During the family dinner i was amused by things like how my Dad accidentally said "You should buy the internal antenna, not the OUTernal one..." Hahhahaa. I dunno. maybe he had an OUTerior motive in saying that.
And how every alternate stall was a seafood stall. No wonder they're so competitive for buisiness.

And there was a caucasion sitting by himself with an opened umbrella sheltering him while he feasted on his seafood...

My mum also suggested that we only take one car to newton circus, cos all of us could be "PUT IN" to Ivan's car. I was like "You think we're groceries or what??" Hahahha so cute.

And now... as expected, my body's really tired and aching... Don't be surprised to see me limping around school next week. hahaha.

Anyways for my dear friends who are overseas... Merry, Felicia, and Pamela... Hope u all are well!!! miss u girls already!! Please keep in touch!!
