Eulogy for Grandma Mark Twain once wrote, “There was never yet an uninteresting life. Such a thing is an impossibility. Inside of the dullest exterior, there is drama, a comedy and a tragedy.” That is most true, as I had a hard time keeping this eulogy to only 5 minutes. No matter how hard I...

Shallow People
Today, a guy said that I’m plump and short… I’m hurt. I HATE SHALLOW MEN WHO PRETEND TO BE CHARMING (which this guy isn’t but tells me what 9 out of 10 girls tell him he is) AND ARE VAIN IDIOTS! But of course, I’ve removed said person from my facebook and msn. Childish, I...

Ode To Irritating People
Phooey to the idiot who kept calling my home phone in the middle of the night. You a-hole who caused me to have interrupted sleep!! 🙁 By the way, the taxi driver that drove me yesterday did the same Raffles LINK and Raffles QUAY confusion again. I saw him veering to the right lane and...

Had A Bad Day
Today has been a day full of irritation…. It all started this morning when I was running late (as usual) and I hopped into the cab. I work at 1 Raffles LINK and not 1 Raffles QUAY. How can LINK and QUAY sound similar at all? Link is pronounced ling-k while Quay is pronounced as...

Naughty Baileys
Baileys did a terrible thing yesterday. He stuck his whole head into my mum’s Ferragamo bag and took out her cashmere cardigan out (plus other stuff) and left some muck at the sides. Thank goodness her bag wasn’t chewed but there was a lot of fur all over her cardi. Mum was NOT happy. First...

A Few Regrets
I was reading Li Yan’s blog and all the rush of regrets and slightly envy crept in. *sigh* I regret not taking 1 year exchange in Japan but yet at the same time, if I did do so, I would’ve graduated a year later and probably wouldn’t have landed my job. Next regret would be...

Anyway, today is 080808!! It’s also the start of the Beijing Olympics!! Woohoo! Tomorrow’s our National Day too! Things...
