Muttons' in the Mornin' !

perfect 10, 98.7FM. haha. muttons' in the morning, my favourite early morning radio show. haha. tho till today, i still dunno hu are the 2 DJs, all i noe is they are known as mutton ! haha. but i'm not here to tok abt this radio show, but abt the topic they spoke abt this morning.
the short, 2 min opinion of 1 mutton was expressed with seriousness and carried loads of importance. it was abt the recent Singapore Idol. ok, not abt hu sang better, performed better or wadeva sorts, but rather, the racists supporters frm both sides.
obviously, jonathan is a chinese, and hady is a malay. both sides, i supposed, had reasonably large grp of supporters of their own. but most of these supporters, they chose their idol on their race, instead of their singing ability and the 'star' appeal. i'd absolutely zero comments on hady being the idol, cus i believed both performed very well, and even if i throw in all my confidence, i mite not even dare to make my 1st step into signing the application form.
silly comments were made, racist remarks were thrown in. ppl cudnt be bothered. they kept thinking, "omg, that malay had won !! he shudnt hv got the champion !!". dun they get it? they're being darn right selfish and childish. being a chn myself, i feel that that was pretty 'face losing'. c'mon, every1 of us learned the national pledge, wad happened to the 'regardless of race, language or religion'? guess there's realli some work to be done to achieve this multi-racial and multi-religious society. ok, perhaps we've done dat, but creating the harmony within the community among 1 another seems to be a long way ahead.
perhaps we realli need to reflect abit on ourselves. i admit dat sometimes, i do feel abit racist, lyk ... not inviting the idea of playing a friendly soccer match with a grp of malays or indians, finding them too rough at times. i do hope singapore can realli be a nice place where foreigners can safely conclude that, hey, this nation is really filled with so much culture, and a harmonious place, how wonderful it would be if i'm part of them. yea, so, let's enjoy the thosai, mee rebus and char siew bao together !!! SEDAP ~

travelling?! realli hope to

good evening !! today went for the buffet lunch at suki. haha, as usual, got a sit, looked at the menu, and started ordering the different food there. met andy, fiona, janet, nich and jr. sarah dint come along, sad. it'd been almost a mth since i last saw her. same to shirley niang zi. lawrence, wayne and the others. all busy with work or simply slacking throughout the vacation. but aniwae, ate to my fill at suki today. the tori karaage (fried chicken), favourite gyoza (fried dumplings) etc.
let's talk abt food...and maybe travelling. agn, ppl that noe me will noe dat i basically live to eat. lols. eating is a way of life. shud commit and indulge ourselves in the most flavourful cuisine we could find once in awhile. that'll make my tummy grows instead of decreasing the circumference of it, but realli, hu cares? when there's gd food, it'll be a dumb and silly thing to do to resist and run away from the 'reality' and the 'fact' that the chef's creation can make ur day, jus liddat.
perhaps the most sinful indulgence of all is chocolate. i prefer dark chocolate, but what ever it is, they are all chocolates. they go well with almost everyting. fruits, cookies, crackers etc.
i would very much love to travel around and taste all the different cuisine around. of cus not anithing too exotic, such as fried grasshoppers?! it would be a nice thing to be able to taste authentic food from different nations. basically i find it hard to find authentic food here in singapore. haha, even at thai express, i believe we dun sell home-created dishes. cus owners tend to change the recipe in order to fix the taste jus right for singaporeans to accept. well, that's not a bad thing, but it actually defeats the purpose of a french restaurant, or a thai restaurant, or wadeva.
i'm not that particular when it comes to eating though. u can pay $1000 for a medium well beef steak (if there's realli such expensive cow to kill!) + a 100-yr-old red wine, but w/o some1 to share ur joy, i guess no 1 will ever love that meal. even 2 pieces of kosong roti prata with hell lots of frens around u are much more enjoyable. maybe... + a a bottle of Tiger or a cup of Milo Dinosaur to complete the meal. CHEERS !!!

short recap ~

first semester had come and gone in a blink of an eye. time realli flies and waits for no one. having been through the first sem of my poly life, wanted to do a quick recap on how it has been for me.
very first, i was enrolled into the class DBS/1B/21, tgt with our buddy class 1B/22, it was a great experience. started by being the treasurer of the class. i admitted i dint do a gd job on it, as i dint keep records of the money in and out. quite irresponsible of me to do that. but luckily, so far, there's no shortage of money, i supposed. there're still some reserved for nxt semester, so will pass it on to the nxt treasurer.
knew our class tutor, Ms Adeline Koh, a very humorous lecturer indeed. and slowly, came to know my classmates a little more. started to find my clique, and they made life wonderful in poly for me.
various activities i had participated, which the most memorable one being the poly50 together with my 'CLS CLS' team-mates. got 15th in the race. nice time training with them, tho i joined them kind of late and dint realli click with them.
of cus, not forgetting the enjoyable 3 days 2 nites stay at costa sands resort with my fellow clique and classmates. staying up whole nite, crapping, mahjong-ing and bla.
2nd term of 1st sem... nth much to recap on, except trying to finish up IDEA project, reports, and finally to our 1st ever exams in poly. everything went by smoothly, and now i'm in my holidays. working at thai express bistro ~ raffles city. havent realli enjoyed my vacation yet, but hopefully dis wk i will. thu goin suki for my favourite buffet lunch, and maybe sunday goin to kbox with the rest, realli anticipating dat as i enjoyed singing. ppl dat know me well will noe dat la.
ok, done. cya -

wad's with MSN?! #*&#$*&*(#

omfg, i cant sign into MSN Messenger. great. i can live without phone, BUT NOT WITHOUT MSN PLS !!! i've totally nth much to do other than gasping for air after cursing msn for the past 2 hrs or so. i'm not tired, i'm not slpy, i jus wan to sign into the freaking msn.
alright, since i can do nth now, might as well jus blog. let's talk abt my current life?! damn, when did i ever start to be short of topic to talk abt?! ok, i admit i'm a boring person, uninteresting and definitely a big big turn off, so perhaps my life isnt that colourful as well. ok, other things then ~
work?! not exactly tiring, jus too taxing on my poor legs. rushing here and there for a few hrs, serving food, taking orders, and talking as well. i mean, talking to the customers ya. better place to work in. fun-loving colleagues. knew a few from myanmar, phillipines as well. full-timers. part-timers. managers. supervisors. haha. 1 manager is damn so noisy, her mouth shoots words like a machine gun and cant stop for a second when she starts to nag. it's the same ting when u pull the trigger, hold it there and bullets keep shooting out, guess it's a thrill for her to tok so much. customers save me from the misery, how i wish she onli wans to nag during rush hours.
time to try signing in agn. shall give up and stone for the nxt hr and see if my eyes got heavy. bye bye

1 week

it's been a wk since i last updated my blog. nothing much for me to update anyway. there's onli 1 particular thing i want to mention here --- i was griefed by the death of Mr Steve Irwin (aka The Crocodile Hunter). he was such a great entertainer, a nature lover, and a loving father to all living animals. i very much enjoyed his shows, watching him rescue-ing animals, introducing to viewers wad different creatures are, and of cus him doing stunning moves to avoid being attacked by dangerous animals. it mus have been a surprise to all, dat he was stabbed in the chest by a stingray.
anyhow, another ting i wud lyk to mention is how singaporeans behave when they're in a particular place. ok, now i'm working in thai express, and everyday u see ppl of different character come and go. u can see dat foreigners are so much more polite. ok, forget it if u dun say thank u, but if wan to comment, pls farking leave it after the meal will u?! or u can jus ask the manager and complain all u wan.
1 scenario...
Me: hi! ready to place ur orders?
Man: oh yes ... bla bla bla bla ...
*started talking among themselves*
Man: damn, soft shell crab is not a thai dish! (to his son).
Me: wud u lyk to try our Phat Thai Seafood?? (they cant seem to decide)
Man: haha, wait till u go to thailand.
i was damn pissed by dat. if u wan, go fly to thailand and have a farking thai meal for all u wan. get the tom yum soup sucked up in ur nose and have runs after eating all the spicy food.
2nd scenario...
Me: ok, i'll get the food for u. thank u
Lady: alright! gogogo! faster! it's supposed to be EXPRESS!!!
F u alright?! if u wan it fast, cant u jus ask properly?! wad kind of attitude is dat?!
enough of this. onli a minority are like that anyway. but i jus hope dat they can understand our predicament and put themselves in our shoes. imagine u're selling a brand of camera, some1 jus come up to u and sae, "hey, ur camera sux", and started holding a speech on 'How Lousy Is This Camera'. that's jus so rude.
haha. i tink dat's all i wanted to sae in dis post. bye bye
