Never say no to..

Has anyone seen this video that's been circulating around Facebook recently? It's basically an ad for the Egypt’s Panda Cheese which features a panda imploring people to say “yes” to the cheese (with background music: Buddy Holly - True Love Ways).



This is just a video made by some NTU students in response to the above video. Enjoy!:)

Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are (Parody)

If anyone hasn't heard of the awesome song Just The Way You Are by Bruno Mars, here's a clip to share with you first.



Now that you've finished watching and listening to it, here's another clip to share with you - a parody version:)

I kinda wished I was there for my Primary School Gathering today. Even though it seemed like only ~15% of the people invited turned up (many guys in NS), it's still great being able to catch up with everyone after 8 years since graduation. I hope to see them when I'm back in Singapore at the end of the year:) xoxoxo

Group pictures of the gathering today stolen from Facebook:P

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.

When I finally moved on, you reappeared and pushed me right back to the starting line. I never moved.

The best break-up letter

Dear wife:

I'm writing you this letter to tell you that I'm leaving you forever. I've been a good man to you for 7 years & I have nothing to show for it. These last 2 weeks have been hell.

Your boss called to tell me that you quit your job today & that was the last straw. Last week, you came home & didn't even notice I had a new haircut, had cooked your favorite meal & even wore a brand new pair of silk boxers. You ate in 2 minutes, & went straight to sleep after watching all of your soaps. You don't tell me you love me anymore; you don't want sex or anything that connects us as husband & wife. Either you're cheating on me or you don't love me anymore; whatever the case, I'm gone.

Your EX-Husband

P.S. don't try to find me. Your SISTER & I are moving away to West Virginia together! Have a great life!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Ex-Husband

Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter.

It's true you & I have been married for 7 years, although a good man is a far cry from what you've been. I watch my soaps so much because they drown out your constant whining & griping. Too bad that doesn't work. I DID notice when you got a hair cut last week, but the 1st thing that came to mind was 'You look just like a girl!' Since my mother raised me not to say anything if you can't say something nice, I didn't comment. And when you cooked my favorite meal, you must have gotten me confused with MY SISTER, because I stopped eating pork 7 years ago. About those new silk boxers: I turned away from you because the $49.99 price tag was still on them, & I prayed it was a coincidence that my sister had just borrowed $50 from me that morning.

After all of this, I still loved you & felt we could work it out. So when I hit the lotto for 10 million dollars, I quit my job & bought us 2 tickets to Jamaica. But when I got home you were gone.. Everything happens for a reason, I guess.

I hope you have the fulfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer said that the letter you wrote ensures you won't get a dime from me.

So take care.

Signed,
Your Ex-Wife, Rich As Hell & Free!

P.S. I don't know if I ever told you this, but my sister Carla was born Carl.

LOL.

Gnomeo and Juliet

Sooooooooooooo cute, can't wait for 11.02.2011 to come now!

This is what I am right now.

One word. Demoralised.

That's what I am feeling right now. I am demoralised. Never once have I felt this bad before. My heart sank in the exam hall. I studied all of it last night. I swear to god I did. My mind went blank as I flipped through the pages. I know I got it before, so why can't I remember it anymore? I wrote down every single word the lecturer said. I made sure I understood what he said before moving on. I've never felt so helpless in the exam hall before. Don't come shoot me in the head by telling me the paper was so easy for you. That's not what I want to hear right now.

I need a space of my own. I need to go somewhere far far away to clear my thoughts.
Would someone like to take me away?

"Won't you take me by the hand? Take me somewhere new, I don't know who you are, But I'm with you."

It has been a long day for me. A grueling day in fact. Nothing went right from the beginning. I'm getting really sick and tired of the current things that's been happening in my life. Every semester gets harder for me, but this semester is taking its toll on me. I'm actually surprised I've come this far. Everyday I feel like some over blown-up balloon that's gonna burst anytime.

I do my best in catching up with ilects and all, but it's just never-ending. I'm not a very good listener when it comes to studying, thus an ilect can easily take up to 3 hours to complete. I feel like I need more than 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, not because of leisure, but because I feel that the amount of work piling up is never ending.

I need a new life. I need to wake up feeling like I've become a brand new person. I really do..

~~~~~~~~~~

Oh and by the way, out of all days, just when I least expected it, my slippers decided to break halfway through the exam, almost causing a mid-exam heart attack for me.== So yea, I had to call for help== Thank goodness Eugene was able to help me:) He even lent me his oversized slippers, except I had to walk barefooted back to his hostel to get it. LOL.

Me with Eugene's oversized slippers;)

I was so not used to wearing guys' oversized slippers that I kept tripping on things as we went for dinner at Northbridge.

But basically the highlight of my day was Eugene lending me his oversized slippers & bringing me out for dinner:) Not to forget the long ride home at 11+ pm, which would have caused him to get back to hostel after midnight:S

At least, I'm feeling a little better now. Except, I think I'm hungry again.:S

I think I need a hug and a guy's shoulder to lean on to let me cry all I want.
Sometimes holding in all the tears just ain't making things any better for me.

A common lie women always say to men: "I'm not mad at you."

-> Don't buy this one for a second. The simple fact she is making a point of telling you she isn't mad at you just further demonstrates that you really ticked her off. If you think she isn't mad that you forgot your dinner plans, or worse than that her birthday or called her by your exes name you are in a fantasy world. She is ripped, she is biding her time with this nifty little defensive maneuver, and she will use it against you when you least expect it. If you did something to get this response you better be thinking of a grand gesture of atonement, especially if it is a second offense.

Kyuhyun (Super Junior) - 7 Years of Love

This song is so awesome, even though I don't quite get the whole point of the video:(

“I’m getting married” was what you said to me
After that for a long time, I was speechless
Then I cried, they were your last words to me
For the only words I wanted to hear was that you loved me

"Train is COMINGGGGG"

Recently I've been seeing many tweets from friends that the new Circle Line is open to public, and apparently they play a song as the train is arriving. So I've tried googling it and all, and finally today, I found it.

Let me present you with the uber embarrassing song that sent shivers down my spine as I listen to it.

NOTE: Footage isn't that great, but it's the song that I want you to listen to.


I am definitely proud embarrassed to be a Singaporean.

I don't know if it's just me, but the song sounds really childish. I feel for people living around those areas, having to hear this everyday== I mean, it sounds cool.. Afterall, how many countries does this right? But like, the tone, is so girly. It sounds like someone who does recordings for nursery rhymes. But I don't know if there's a male version of this though.. And like, if there's other languages?

Also, this song totally reflects on Singaporeans - Singlish. I mean, who says train is COMING?! 2 options: either you're really young, or you're Singaporean. It's ARRIVING man!

If you really want to inform people about the train coming arriving, maybe you could try the Perth's way, somewhere along the lines of: "Clarkson passengers, your train is arriving in XX minutes." I know this may sound like you're stealing someone else's idea, but still, you can always modify it right? It's much better than this current song alright? But then of course, we are UNIQUELY SINGAPORE, aren't we? Very unique, indeed.

I don't know who came up with this idea, and I certainly wouldn't know if this is even making the passengers queue up for the train.

"Good friend"

Scenario:

I happened to come across a Facebook chat today which obviously I was not supposed to see. Basically, I was on Kenneth's Facebook doing something which I will be explaining later, and a chat popped up to say HI! and it continued on, so of course I would reply back (because I know the person; I don't talk to anybody who says HI!). As the convo goes on, as I was pretending to be Kenneth (further explained later), it got to a point where Kenneth's "good friend" asked Kenneth (me) to follow her on Twitter, thus I did so on behalf of him. At the same time, I followed her too since I know her; we're friends (are we?); and I tweet daily anyways, so why not? As she protected her tweets, when I requested to follow her tweets, she got a notification, and the below convo occurred.

Clarification 1: Why did I pretend to be Kenneth?

Well, I should ask, why not? If she is just a friend, I honestly don't see the problem with it. Is there anything that my bf knows, his "good friend" knows, but the gf doesn't shouldn't know? My birthday just passed not long ago, so there's shouldn't be some surprise party coming up. Unless it's about his birthday surprise that they're planning.

There's not many times I actually pretend to be Kenneth because I never have to. There's never any occasions where I have to pretend to be him at all. If your message didn't pop up, you really think I'm that free to initiate a talk with you to see what's going on between you and my bf?

Maybe you should just admit that you eye on him getting on Facebook and initiates a talk with him all the time. You're prolly the one who is talking to him whenever he is/isn't talking to me. It was also clear when you kept telling him (me) to get on MSN to chat with you. You even suggested Skype, and it was repeated for more than 5 times (when I constantly ignored you because I didn't want to let the talk get any further). I can understand friends skype with each other and there's nothing wrong with that. But there is something wrong when you expect him to do that a few times a week, and he barely even webcam with me once a month; don't even talk about Skype.

I honestly don't see the need for you to make long distance calls to him a couple of times a week, no matter how good a friend he is to you. And I know that because you call him even when he's visiting me in Perth, so I've witnessed all these. I never confronted you about it, so don't let it go overboard.

I agree with the fact that people shouldn't have to give up on their friends totally once they've gotten themselves in a relationship, but I reckon the friends, especially the opposite sex, should have a limit, knowing that the friend is attached now, so certain things would not be appropriate to do anymore. Go ahead and argue that the friendship wouldn't be the same anymore, but it's just the way it works.

Conclusion: If you two have got nothing to hide, I don't see what's wrong with what I did. I have also tried to minimise the amount we have chat, so I'm not being someone I'm not. But if you pester on with the chat, then don't blame me.

~~~~~~~~~~

Clarification 2: I DO NOT CONTROL Kenneth's Facebook account.

Like what you said, I have his password. Yup, that's right. But he willingly gave it to me. If it makes you any happier, he has my password too. So as to say, he controls my account too.

From what I know, it is normal and common to know each other's password in a relationship, because it goes to show you have got nothing to hide. Even friends may know their BFF's password too.

I have Kenneth's password does not mean I'm controlling him. If he feels that I'm controlling him in any way, then he can feel free to change it. The fact that he's not worrying about it, why should you? He gives me his password because he trusts me, so the only reason I can think of why you're worrying is because you write to him on Facebook (could be Facebook chat in this case), and you don't want me to see it, which unfortunately I have seen it. Bad luck, girl.

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

A couple of times when we have our usual quarrels, I may have threatened to change his password (well, you say anything when you're really mad), and he has in fact, changed his password when I threatened so. Even then, I still don't see why it's your problem here. And after that, he would offer to tell me his password. And guess what I said?

"If you change it, then you don't trust me", to which he replies, "It's because you threatened me, and I don't like being threatened".

And if we ever come to a compromise regarding that, I would tell him,

"Don't tell me your new password. Change it back to the old one that I know, if you really want to let me know your password."

And he does exactly that.

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

Sometimes we quarrel, and it's all because of you, "good friend". So don't go putting words in my mouth when you don't even know the whole situation. And Kenneth may have only told you part of the story; you assumed the other part.

Conclusion: If there is nothing going on between you two, then why are you so afraid of me seeing whatever you write to him on Facebook, and Twitter? Why are you so afraid of me following you on Twitter?

FYI, Kenneth doesn't even post Twitter updates. He checks it sometimes because I update it often. So quit thinking Twitter is a better place for you to post whatever lovey dovey stuff to him.

~~~~~~~~~~

Clarification 3: Why did I go on Kenneth's Facebook, and happened to see what I was not supposed to see?

Well, for all who don't know, I play Facebook games. Depending on what you play, but the ones I play require you to go in a couple of hours in between and put in new shifts for the workers to work for you etc. And with Facebook games, the more friends you have on Facebook, you get more benefits (eg. mostly freebies in money or gifts form). I log in to Kenneth's account so I could play for him, and I benefit in my own way in the game as we keep up with each other's levels. He, most of the time, goes into my account too, often when I'm busy studying and he's free-er than me. The difference is, I stay offline on my account, and I don't normally do Facebook chats anyways. With Kenneth's account, it's always online, and there's always a "good friend" there waiting for him.

Conclusion: I can choose what to see and what not to see, but if I'm on my bf's account on one of those rare chances, and the Facebook chat pops up right in front of my eyes, then it's not a matter of why I chose to see it anymore.

~~~~~~~~~~

This is the second time the chat has coincidentally popped up, so I really think I was fated to see it. I won't talk about the first one, because that would require me to write another 100 pages long and I'm not willing to.

Don't bitch about me behind my back, for you will never know, I may be the one you're bitching to, right now.

*And I have just wasted 3 hours of my life typing this up when I have got 1 mid sem and 1 quiz next week. FML.

Nom nom nom..

I wish I had a cool fridge like that;)

Spring is here to stay:)

Was walking home today and came across a bunch of flowers blooming outside my garden, not that I care or anything, but yea.. Just realised it's the 1st of September today. So much has happened in August, I'm glad I've put an end to everything I could. All along I was merely a tool in your life. I just wish I could fall asleep right now and say Wake me up, when September ends.

Pretty tiny lavender purple flowers that look white here:(

A bunch of yellow flowers growing on my front yard lawn.

Picture of the day:)

Care for her more than you care for me. Figure out your relationship with her. Friends. Pfft.

She can tell you her troubles. And you fall asleep when I try talk to you.
