Dedicated to ....

Freaking menboys
Crazy over toys
Like to brag and like to boast
Mad about cars and women and sex
Love to make jokes about boobs and crap

Freaking menboys
Please grow up
Cos' you are nearing 40
And your boobs are already c cup
Give those around you some peace
And stop those giggling, my god... please...

Freaking menboys
My oh my...
Please grow up
And you'll be fine.

Stuck in JB

Yes... how I wish for this to end... stuck in a birddunlayegg place, on standby in case something screws up. Sighs... working life sometimes suxs. How I sometimes envy friends who don't have to work... but well... the money is good... and I need it.

Since I have nothing to do and is half starving, I shall post the pictures I secretly took in RJC and VCH. The picture above is taken in LT2 in RJC for all of you dimwits out there who have never NEVER and WILL NEVER step into RJC... that's what it looks like.


This other picture is taken in Victoria concert hall before the concert began. We were suppose to go earlier for some last minute rehearsal but I was too early... So poor little me sat alone in the dark hall and secretly took some pictures.

Lazy Laid Back Saturday

It's a lazy saturday. I haven't had a lazy saturday for so long. Usually I have to meet friends, go for choir, stay out till super late... But no... this saturday, I had piano lesson in the morning (And I am learning the Forest Gump music, which is gorgeous!), strolled around Hougang mall and watched the town folks wake up and open their stores, with the morning sun shining merrily down. Life should be like this... laid back, unhurried, warm and happy. Sale signs were sprouting out everywhere because of the GSS. Sighs.... this is life... no stress... no worries... just peace and calm....

I went back home and chatted online with friends, watched Jimmy Neutron at 12 noon and then fell asleep. Slept till 4pm, woke up, watched tv and played the piano (multitasking, kekeke). Feel more rested than I have been in weeks and feeling prettier too even though I'm makeupless and dressed in scruffy tshirt and shorts. Beauty sleep does alot for your spirits... Then I was hit by a sudden decision to watch X-men2, so I turned on my dvd player and sipped coke while watching Hugh Jackman run about in a singlet. Haha. As Guru Erwin always say, "Relak lar".

Chill.

Requiem

Yes yes yes, my first real choir performance in a real theatre with real paying audience (sorta real even though they are mostly people we know). Yup, fun. But it's also slightly empty as well... like after having practised like crazy for the past week, bang, bright lights, music, singing and it's all over.
But anyway, yes, a small little part of my dreams is fulfilled. I have MY NAME in a programme... well... i was hoping it was in a Les Miz or Miss Saigon programme, but... well... for now... and maybe forever, this will do. If you look really carefully, that's my name on the first row!!! :D

And we performed with the RJC orchestra. Dear Tantan and Yuling... I will no longer mock you two for having chased after idols in your RJC days... I can see that yes... there are many idol-worthy guys there. I should have worked harder last time and tried to enter RJC (though I think it would still be near impossible). The 1st and 2nd violinist was darn cool! Especially the 1st violinist may I add... even my papa who has never remotely hinted that his son is handsome said that "that guy very yan dao". Hahaha! Darn... should have studied harder last time.

You are the one who seem to let your body rule your mind. If that's what being grown up means then please leave me behind.

I remember this line from Aspects of Love. Where little Jenny told Alex that if being grown up means trading in love for sex (she discovered his fling with Jiulietta) , then he should very well let her go.

I thought about this line after going down with 2 of my married colleagues to do some offsite testing which is horrendous, but that's another story. Anyway, I hear quite a few jokes, indirect references to sex... etc. Actually there's nothing overly raunchy and I guess they did try to tone down cos' I was there. But maybe I'm tired. But I feel slightly sick. Sick of men. Sick of the word horny. Sick of people talking about sex. Just... sick. I've nothing against talking about sex. I mean... sometimes conversation topics related to sex are very interesting. As in the recent one I had about AIDS. How come only those third world country ppl seems to be dying like flies from AIDS and not Hollywood stars. I mean... can condom really do sooooo much?! Or maybe US has already discovered the magic formula against AIDs but they are only dispensing it out to hollywood stars... Or about my friend's friend who is named Harry Kwok with chinese name Yit Chin. I mean... these are funny.... and interesting.

Argh, I don't know... sometimes a male environment is so suffocating. I can't breathe. Just want to get out. Get away from guys in tshirt and belted jeans who talk loudly. Get away from listening to weird sex jokes or bikini babes or FHM or RPG online games. Just want to get away. I'm fond of my loud talking team mates and I know they have been very nice to me. Sometimes they make me smile... but sometimes... sometimes they make me wonder why people get married in the first place if all guys are like that...

If that's what being grown up means, then please leave me behind.

What I pasted on the door after I brushed my teeth and washed my face...

What I saw early this morning hanging from the door next to my room...

Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius

Yes, my next obsession. Jimmy Neutron, the boy genius with the acorn shaped head. Catch him on Nicklelodeon on Sat and Sun at 12noon. Boy is he cute!!! Look at that head! Where can I get all the dvd of this madcap cartoon! I must have them! Anyway, more about the series next time. Need to get some beauty sleep. Nites :)!

X-Men The Last Stand

Man, do I love X-Men! I remember when I was in secondary school and saturday was an endless wait because they showed x-men cartoon in the morning. Misunderstood mutants trying to come to terms with their special powers and striving to find peace and acceptance with fellow humans. It may seem like a dumb super creatures special effects kind of comics, but I thought alot of the issues they were tackling seem pretty similar to what we have in the real world.... Ostracism due to race, religion, etc... ok... well... maybe I think too much... but... I could kinda relate to it.

Anyway, X-Men the movie is going to show and the person I LOVE LOVE LOVE must in the film is Hugh Jackman. Why I love him so much?! Because I caught him in Oklahoma on artscentral before and he could sing and smoke at the same time. Which is a mind blowing trick! Cool. The second reason I like him so much was because during an interview, he spoke fondly of his wife (He called her his other half) and he seems so much in love... which is very sweet. I mean... how many people in Hollywood stays married. I say he has his head and heart in the right place. And the third reason is cos'... well... I like Australians... like David... they have this.... earthly... environmentally friendly.... laid back kind of vibe.... like a cool comfortable confidence. Well... he rocks :)!

Anyway, the only complaint I have of the X-Men movie is "Where the hell is Gambit?!" I adored Gambit in the cartoon. The cool cocky guy who can make playing cards blow up in the enemies faces. He and Rouge used to have this love-hate forbidden relationship which is sooooo darn addictive to watch. Gee... now we have Iceman in the movie... well... he's kinda cute as well. Haha. Ok, enough of my miserable musings. I will catch X-Men soon. Peace on earth and love all mutants. Ciao.
