!Monday, August 28, 2006 PICTURES!
By making us visit the TEA CHAPTER teahouse (weird name, I know), mgs tries to no avail to educate her girls about tea etiquette and Chinese culture.
Cause we spend all the time there taking photos.
Liana learning how to make mooncakes!
Our table.
From here on the photos get a bit dark and blurry- try squeezing 10-odd people at the (storeroom?) back of a tea house and you'll see why.
Tam mei has suction pads on her mouth, I swear. Either that or it's a gravity-defying miracle.
This is like the only serious shot in the whole lot of photos- grace fong sitting quietly sipping her tea looking every bit, well, graceful.
Most of the pictures are shrunken down to a fifth of their original size, so if you want the originals, tell me or leave a tag. I'll email them to you.
And there's also a load of other shots I didn't put up, so tell me if you want them.
OH! AND OUR AMATEUR MUSIC VIDEO!
Sung to the tune of... Sarah says it's someday we will know?
Starring: Sarah Thiam -the girlfriend Tan Tam Mei -the boyfriend Melinda Ang -song singer Tricia Chng and Gabby Loo -two background people sitting a seat behind us who consciously duck down everytime the camera moves upwards.

!Friday, August 25, 2006 Thankfully, Stupid.com never receives any complaints. But if we did, we think something like this would come in quite handy.
It's a handy display for your desk, counter top, or... if you have one... your actual complaint department.
The display clearly announces "COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT" in bold type, and depicts a pointing hand that says "Take A Number. " The number, however, just happens to be connected to the pin on a hand grenade. Theoretically, the complainer will re-think his gripe, decide it's not really that important, and walk away. The entire display is about 8 inches tall and comes in a fun box. We shouldn't have to say this, but we will... The hand grenade is fake. Though it looks real, it's actually made of squeezable rubber.
We're certain you'll get loads of laughs with this thing. And if you don't, you're welcome to come down to our Complaint Department and take a number.
With some people, it's impossible to get off the phone. You WANT to, but the person on the other end keeps blabbing on and on about NOTHING. "My boyfriend said this..." "My mother wants that..." "A crocodile's in my bathtub..." Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
If only there were a graceful way to break free! Well -- surprise surprise -- now there is.
Meet the GET OFF THE PHONEEXCUSE MACHINE
It's a small electronic device that performs a huge public service. With just a press of a button, you'll have a solid excuse that'll get you off the phone, no questions asked.
DOOR BELL Just say, "Whoops. There's the door. Gotta go." STATIC Press this button and say, "I can't hear you. You're breaking up!" Then just hang up the phone. SIREN After this loud police siren wails, you can say "Uh, oh, it's the cops. Look, I gotta run." BABY CRYING Hey, you'd love to talk, but you have take care of the baby. CAR CRASHING Just say, "Oh, my god!" and hang up. KNOCK..KNOCK...CHINESE FOODThis is our favorite. Sounds like a delivery man just brought your dinner.
If you've been searching for a way to look like an idiot, your quest is over. Meet...
BASKET CASE
Basket Case is basically a basketball hoop hat. The goal of the game is to toss red and white balls into the air and catch them in the net on top of your head.
There's no way you can avoid looking like an imbecile as you play this game. Naturally, this makes Basket Case is a terrific party game. Just pray that nobody has a camcorder or camera when it's your turn to play it.
It comes with everything you see, including the stupid box. Dignity not included.
Haha this is just what I want for my birthday. From stupid.com, link stolen from ttm (: .
I'm not going for the MEP concert tonight. No way. No one's going to force me to listen to two and a half hours of chinese music on a Saturday night. Hmph.
four million smiles, light up those faces, Singapore!
To submit a smile is no hassle, to write an entire argumentative essay IN CHINESE then read it out to the class and answer spontaneous questions is another. But I will get through it with my own efforts! ... and a bit of my tution teacher's help, I suppose.
Anyway today I have learnt that in the alternate-reality universe of personality tests and shrinks, if you draw a mouse on the middle of your page head facing left with four legs and large ears, you are:
1. Serious
2. Stable
3. Creative
4. A good listener.
Like wow, one stupid mouse-like doodle can change the way you perceive yourself forever. Someone sue the stupid personality test industry for coming up with the Mouse Personality Test.
AND ISO PICTURES! Thanks Grace!
So we play dress up as public relations managers so (hopefully) we get higher ISO grades.
NO HOLD ON...
We BETTER GET EXTRA POINTS!
I didn't walk up and down in HELL-HIGH HEELS for nothing, or squeeze myself into a blazer and don a tie! OR WEAR A FRIGGIN WEIRD SKIRT.
My hair's so messy and my tie! I look like someone who slept and drooled all over the office desk.

It's been 5-6 days since I last updated, but this really freaky thing's happening so I just have to post it.
Apparently, someone's been stealing our shoes.
Yes, I'm not kidding. Someone's been going to our doorstep and stealing our shoes. And omg are my parents damn pissed.
Apparently my dad went to play golf early this week, AND SOMEONE TOOK HIS GOLF SHOES! Unbelievable huh. So he had to by new shoes at the golf course.
And then one day later someone took his working shoes, those black polished so-shiny-I-can-see-my-reflection-in-them whatever their called shoes to wear to work.
And then this morning/yesterday night someone took my mum's really tattered sandals.
And this is the really creepy part- apparently the mysterious unknown shoe-stealer only takes one half of the pair of shoes! (Like either the right or the left side). That narrows the suspects down to only amputated one-foot shoe-stealers or someone who likes to wear unmatching male and female shoes on both feet.
Or, as my mother says, someone is trying to purposely throw one side of the shoe away SO WE CAN'T WEAR THE PAIR OF SHOES AT ALL AND THIS IS PURPOSEFULLY DAMN IRRITATING. At least if you took one side I would think you were some poor person who couldn't afford to buy shoes and let it slide, because charity is always good and zhu ren wei kuai le zhi ben!
But no, the 23244ing person brilliantly took one side, knowing that no store freaking sells shoes by single sides! Bloody irritating, I swear. Just because he takes one side with the intention to irritate us WE CAN'T WEAR THAT PAIR OF SHOES ANYMORE.
So now I have moved in all the sneakers and all my pairs of shoes, including the pink ah lian ones I don't wear anymore, into the house.
So tomorrow night, I will wait outside my back door behind the dengue-ridden potted plants, and when that shoe-stealer appears I will WACK HIS FACE IN WRATH WITH MY SUPERMARKET SLIPPERS and then dangle him over the railings and make him finish licking them clean before he can come back up again.
Shoe-stealer, you have been warned.
Now that I have vented out my anger, I feel muchhh happier? Anger Management hahahaha.
So anyway sze your pics:
I don't really like this picture but it's the first one without my braces!
And grace's ISO group yours:
and Grace C send me the pics before the ISO presentation the other day!
There you go, super long post for a super long weekend.
And life science sucked, so I'd rather not talk about it.

I was just browsing through all my files, and I found a whole lot of random pictures:
Sze says there's a new Nets commercial, but I've been watching a load of tv and I haven't seen it yet. She's commercial-crazy! I remember the Lock-and-Lock one she told me about ages ago, and I suppose she was the first one to see it on tv.
Sze watches tv for the commercials, seriously.
My fave commercials 1. Richard Gere's (DBS? some credit card) bank commerical, the Indian one about releasing the birds and even funnier, the mrbrown parody.
2. The new Bolly Bolly! CD commercial with the I-shakes-my-turbaned-head-vigorously mascot with coolio sunglasses.
5. The Starhub cable tv one with the guy whose mother is always crying.
I remember last time there used to be really cute commercials, like the Oreo one where we used to sing the Oreo jingle (which didn't have anything to do with the words 'twist', 'lick' or 'dunk'.)
Going to watch Citizen Kane now, yay for nostalgic black and white films. The last of these sort I ever watched was Gone With The Wind. Hold on, that was in colour right?
Can you believe it? Citizen Kane 1. Came out before my parents were born, and when my grandfather was a young boy, before WW2. 2. 's actors and actresses have all died except some guy who acted as a boy in the film.
