Non-sense

It seems that no one is taking part in my National Day Competition! Only Melvyn has 2 entries so far. One about the National Stadium and the other on hawker food in Singapore. Can I have more please!

Still, I'm not really inspired to write about hawker food and National Stadium. Why? Writing about food makes my hungry and makes me want to travel all over Singapore in search of the best chicken rice, laksa, nasi lemak... well, you get the idea! As this is destructive to my stomach size, I shall consider before writing about it.

Writing about the National Stadium plainly reminds me of NDP rehearsals! Argh!

I'm so glad that the band is not involved for today's rehearsal. Finally I have a Saturday morning whereby I'm sitting in front of my computer and not having to stand in the sun at the stadium doing sound checks with the band. Well, at least in a way, this year is much more welfare than last year. We are allowed to wear sunglasses during rehearsals. We are allowed to wear ear plugs so I won't be bothered by the gigantic loudspeakers right behind me, the Feu-de-Joie, the flypast. Damn noisy can!

The Feu-de-Joie is the 3 rounds of rifle firing by the guard-of-honour if you have no idea what it is. It literally means Fire-of-Joy in English.

It's that time of the month again, the monthly cramps. Sigh.

Hello? What are you thinking about? Wallet cramps can? Payday is looming around the corner and my wallet is as thin as those poor little kids in Africa.

I was so bored yesterday that I went to read Xiaxue's archives. I spent about 1 hour reading 2 months' worth of entries. She can be damn long-winded but still I find it rather interesting to read. I find that she writes to bring a smile to people?s face. I'm not sure if you smiling now. I shall try to make my entries more laughable. It probably won't end up in the same flamboyant style she has but probably one which is more subtle.

I wonder why people don't like her. Is it that they cannot take her sense of humour? Or is it as she puts it, guys think that a girl should be demure and quiet? I think someone who's demure and quiet is so boring! Agree? Choose between someone who?s very beautiful and doesn't know how to express herself and someone who's more average but have the right click with me, ie. the right chemistry, I would take the latter in the long run. Yes, probably at first sight I would go for the former. Humans always like to look at beautiful things. It's true!

So girls, if your boyfriend happened to take a long at a certain pretty girl on the street. Accept it. Looking at a beautiful girl is just like taking a look at the flashy red Ferrari that had just flew past and crashed into the wall down the road. Unless of course he starts dreaming and fantasizing about her, then you may proceed to give him 2 tight slaps. In the principle of vice-versa, this applies to guys too!
