If you haven't already heard me screaming "Homey Depot", here's the reason y I'm doing it. Imagine having a good half of the exam paper with exact similar questions from the past year and all using the example of some company called Homey Depot...I mean who doesn't want to shout "HOMEY DEPOT" in the middle of the exam hall in glee? :p
Just one more paper to go!

Lucky
The song "Lucky" by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat which my friend used to propose to his gf and I thought it was really sweet and nice. Plus: the MTV was filmed in Prague, instantly recognisable from the Old Town and the Tyn Church. Was there before and I totally agree it adds even more to that romantic European getaway feel the song brings about.
(Jason)
Do you hear me,
Im talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby Im trying
(Colbie)
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
(Both)
Im lucky Im in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh, ooooh, oooh, oooh,
Oooh ooh ooh ooh
(Both)
They dont know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
Ill wait for you I promise you, I will
(Both)
Im lucky Im in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky were in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
(Jason)
And so Im sailing through the sea
To an island where well meet
Youll hear the music fill the air
Ill put a flower in your hair
(Colbie)
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty youre all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now
(Both)
Im lucky Im in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Im lucky were in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
Ooohh, ooooh, oooh, oooh,
Oooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooooh, ooooh, oooh, oooh,
Oooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.

Eat grass, eat meat
An interesting article from ST about how men are classified as erm...herbivores and carnivores. Read on...
ECONOMISTS and population experts alike have reason to lament the rise of a new generation of young Japanese who are seemingly not terribly interested in love and marriage.
The dating rituals of such Japanese couples seem to lack the sparkle that one normally associates with young people in love.
A recent survey by the Research institute of Industry and Regional Economy, which is under the umbrella of the influential business daily Nikkei, found that over 60 per cent of Japanese below 30 years of age spent most of their dates at shopping centres and outlet malls, or in the homes of their boyfriend or girlfriend.
Many of these young men and women also go on dates wearing just the sort of clothes they would wear every day – stuff likely to have been purchased at one of the country’s ubiquitous low-cost casual outfitters.
For them, going on a special dinner date or a long drive into the countryside in a flashy automobile is also no longer considered the cool thing to do.
These young Japanese would rather just have a simple meal at home, one cooked in the microwave, and watch rented DVDs together.
Such behaviour alarms Japanese businesses.
If young Japanese couples increasingly stay away from fancy restaurants, do not buy clothes to impress their dates, give each other fewer presents, and give cinemas a miss, it means a major setback for personal consumption which in Japan is traditionally fuelled by younger consumers.
Other surveys have found that fewer young Japanese these days crave to have their own cars, a fact that spells trouble for Japanese carmakers.
The country’s birth rate – already a major headache for national planners – will also suffer.
If the dating behaviour of young Japanese is not much different that that of married couples, singles are likely to see little merit or attraction in taking that final plunge.
A decrease in marriages simply means that fewer babies will be born in Japan.
Unlike many European countries where increasingly babies are being born out of wedlock, most Japanese babies today are still being born only to wedded couples.
A lot of the blame for the decrease in the number of marriages in Japan has been put on the modern Japanese male.
In 2006, columnist Maki Fukasawa coined the moniker “grass-eating male” (“soushokudanshi”), in a series of articles about marketing products to men under-35, to describe today's young Japanese male.
“Grass-eaters”, or herbivorous males, will happily graze alongside their female companions and are not given to forming deeper relationships. In contrast, “meat-eaters”, or carnivorous males, home in on their prey.
The term “grass-eating male” has gained wide usage in Japan during the past year, as a result of which the definition of what constitutes a “grass-eating male” has also grown.
It is generally agreed that “grass-eaters” do not see women as sex objects; they are gentle in their relationship with the fair sex; they prefer to be indoors rather than outdoors; and they tend to be delicate by nature.
“Grass-eaters” are also said to be not terribly positive in their attitude towards love or sex, and are more interested in fashion or their own hobbies rather than falling in love.
Moreover, the “grass-eating male” is likely to have a sweet tooth and an ardent interest in food.
It is not unreasonable to suppose that the “grass-eating male” may not be confined to Japanese society.
“Grass-eating males” are also likely to exist in other modern societies where equality between the sexes is regarded as a matter of course.
So ladies, if your boyfriend exhibits some of the traits described above such as being gentle and a foodie, he may well be one of Ms Maki’s “grass-eaters”.

Jia lat sia...Singapore being a foodie paradise..does it mean most Singaporean guys here "chiak chow"? Hmmmm.......what about being an omnivore? Best of both worlds!!

Possible SGs
I read this article from Channel News Asia with great interest. What would possibly happen to Singapore, the PAP and what the political climate will stand for down the road when the MAN is no longer around.
Possible Singapores, beyond Lee Kuan Yew
SINGAPORE: A People’s Action Party (PAP) split by internal schisms. Future leaders bereft of the "huge political legitimacy" that could be gained from endorsement by the man with unmatched moral and historical authority. These are some of the leadership fates that could befall a post—Lee Kuan Yew Singapore, as hotelier Ho Kwon Ping sees it.
And such "imponderable" scenarios could help explain why a "system of elders" is now taking shape in the political landscape.
"Perhaps it is to restrain factionalism, arbitrate disagreements, groom and assess future leaders, that the positions of senior minister and minister mentor have been institutionalised," said Mr Ho, who feels the PAP’s "extraordinary cohesion" over five decades has owed much to "the forceful personality of Lee Kuan Yew".
Mr Ho, who is also MediaCorp chairman, was speaking on Monday alongside Professor Kishore Mahbubani at a seminar organised by Nanyang Technological University’s Asian Journalism Fellowship programme. The topic? "Singapore Beyond Lee Kuan Yew: Institutionalising the Singapore Way".
Of this future, Prof Mahbubani, who Dean of the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, would not rule out a "significant reversal" of Mr Lee’s legacy, or the rise of a stronger Opposition usurping the one dominant party system — though he gave each scenario only a "one—sixth probability".
While a "smooth and seamless transition" was a two—thirds likelihood, Prof Mahbubani harked back to the words of former Deputy Prime Minister Goh Keng Swee, after the PAP’s long monopoly of parliament was broken in 1981. "As (Dr Goh) has wisely told us, failure happens when we fail to consider the possibility of failure."
So, for instance in the unlikely event of a strong opposition arising, would Mr Lee’s legacy be weakened? In fact, the "sharper political debates" arising could make Singaporeans more aware of the "precious political legacy they have enjoyed", said Prof Mahbabuni.
On the other hand, as has happened in South Korea and Taiwan, it could also lead to the old legacies being quickly lost and forgotten by the new generation. "I am frequently shocked when I meet younger Singaporeans who have never heard of Dr Goh," he said.
Both speakers were not alone in expressing uncertainty over how Singapore’s future, sans Mr Lee, would play out. During the Q&A session, which was off—the—record, the audience raised concerns such as how the country would be deprived of its most astute and influential critic — and whether Mr Lee’s legacy, or indeed Singapore, could unravel.
While Mr Lee’s retirement would "create a huge political vacuum", Prof Mahbubani believes Singapore has "done a lot" to protect his legacy, such as instilling a deep culture of meritocracy and incorruptibility.
And Mr Ho had no doubts Singaporeans could "muddle their way through", even if the PAP’s leadership renewal "fails to deliver what it has done for the past 50 years".
Mr Lee’s greatest legacy, he said, "is that the Singapore which he so passionately shaped will outlive not only him, but even his own party, should that ever come to pass".
The reason: In his single most critical imperative — nation building — Mr Lee has largely succeeded, said Mr Ho, who has found young Singaporeans to own a strong sense of involvement and ownership in the country, contrary to stereotype.
"Equally contrary to some people’s wishful thinking, there is not likely to be dramatic, broad—brush social or political liberalisation," said Mr Ho. "This is not a pent up society waiting for the demise of the strongman in order to overturn highly unpopular laws."
Rather, the government has the support of the politically—vital heartland in its pragmatic, incremental approach to change, even as it responds to tomorrow’s generation, he said.

SC2 - Some commentary
Not really a fan of Starcraft, but I remember it as one of the games that my sec. sch classmates went crazy over. Who could ever forget the times when we had a computer lab for our classroom, and after lessons most of the class was hooked up to the game, XK the pro gamer, WW and ZY screaming "zergling rush!" while others were curious spectators egging the battle on. The comp lab was practically our safe haven.
Anw just kinda amazed that the gaming commentaries nowadays are pretty good and quite similar to those football commentaries. Actually makes a match more worth watching. Heck...I hear that in Korea, Starcraft matches are also broadcast onto the stadium screens complete with commentaries and fans at the stadium. That's how serious these players are.

Push that button!
Kinda hooked to this Mousehunt Facebook game going on right now. It's basically a game where you set up a trap, bait it with cheese to catch mice and sound the horn (aka push the button) every 15 min. Doesn't require much thinking and it's more of a "push the button" and wait kinda thing for the results of the catch. The prob: I seem to find myself itching to press the button every 15 min to see what happens...very much like Locke in the TV drama Lost. Except he pushes the button as he thinks it will save the world. I push it to rid the world of another virtual mice. Yeahh!!
Some random vid from Lost on pushing the button

Like fish-sticks?
The recent South Park episode was pure classic! All it takes is a joke, Cartman's huge-ass ego and making fun of Kanye West. Throw in a killer song at the end and that's crazy! As for the joke, if you get it, you get it...if you don't, you just don't!!
The joke goes like this:
A: Do you like fishsticks?
B: Yes.
A: Do you like putting fish dicks in your mouth?
B: Yes.
A: What are you, a gay fish?
And presenting The Gay Fish Song!
I've been so lonely girl
I've been so sad and down
couldnt no understand why haters joked around
i wannted to be free without the creatures like me
and now i got my wish
cause I know that I'm a gay fish
gay fish
gay fish ,yo
motherfucking gay fish
I'm a fish, yo
going on a gay fate
its alright, girl
making love to other gay fish
all those lonely nights at the grocery store
in the frozen fish-outfit and like a whore
cause i wasnt be a true and so everyone said
that I had to make a switch (gay fish)
Know I know that I'm a gay fish (gay fish)
gay fish
gay fish ,yo
motherfucking gay fish
ah, I'm a fish, yo
going on a gay fish
now where I belong, girl
making love to other gay fish
I used to be scared denying who I was
acting straight, but then going out to the gay fish-clubs
dancing with the marlins making out with all the snappers
I take a salmon home and work that cuttle-fin for hours
But now I'm out and I'm free to love what I want
Being yellowfin, or bass or damn trout in vermont
I slapped that hauling ass make that groper-butt shake
I'll come to your house and have an orgy in your motherfucking fishtank
fatherfucking gay fish
ah, I'm a fish, yo
going on a gay fish
ish, now where I belong, girl
making love to other gay fish
I really get around I'm a slut of the sea
when I say I've got crabs I mean it literaly
I was eating dinner it just had to go down
on that nacre on the dish
cause I'm the gayest till the gay fish
gay fish
motherfucking gay fish
ah, I'm a fish, yo
going on a gay fish
ish, now where I belong, girl
But I got to settle down I cant be a whore

No MOP4! No MOP4!
Celebrated Dash's bdae at Ichiban Boshi. Usual wishes include "Big $$$", "Chio Bu" and I added in "No MOP4!" (aka army speak for no reservist chemical suit-up), which led to Dash blowing off his candle way off earlier than expected. As XD puts it aptly, "The Dashing Candle Blow" of all time!

Yay!! I knew I was Hwa Chong all the way!!
Just some silly quiz on Facebook. Nowadays the main page seems to be spammed with the results of so many people taking quizzes.
Which Singaporean Elite School You Belong To quiz and the result is Hwa Chong Institution
You are the quiet worker. In fact, you work alot. You are very goal-oriented and you constantly wonder why your school uniform could not be more hip. You do not think that your school is necessarily better than others, but you believe that the school is the best for you. You tend to think so out of the box that you sometimes lose the plot (along with the box). In your quiet moments, you think "I should be so lucky".
Super amused to see some of my male friends belonging to a female school. But the above description kinda fits me, except the working alot part...lolol

When a bus gets crowded...
I just happened to be in a crowded bus today, and 2 things ticked me off. If it ain't bad enough having to squeeze and scramble for a space in the bus to just grab onto some railing, this guy standing behind me just had to cough right into my neck without covering his mouth. And throughout the whole journey summore....angry stares work well. Damn I feel all those germs on my neck...bleargh. Then there was this auntie who apparently couldn't understand why the bus driver keep stopping to take in more passengers when it was already crowded. But in the first place, there was a bit of space still cos people couldn't be bothered to move all the way to the back of the bus (ok make that the 3rd thing that pissed me off too) so the auntie was being very very anal and even kaobei the bus driver. Bus driver was also damn rude in replying back saying he dun wanna tio complain. Wows......drivers nowadays also....anw what happened next was the auntie actually whipped out her handphone and silently took photo of the bus license plate number (it's always in the front) and then also of the back view of the driver, before alighting somewhere in Bukit Timah. Wows...sure wun be surprised if it's on Stomp or there will be some complain letter to SBS or something. Beware the power of the auntie!!
