and sue lee, haha yeah, now that you mention it (tag board) i really do have to be content with the mrt and nel here. remembering the small and sardinic human packed lrt back in kl is a nightmare.
i did go to compass point with the initial plan to just window shopping but i ended up buying a pair of shoes! which is at a good bargain, and comfy vincci for the too much walking to and at work. and then i bought a book, no, two books at that! cecelia ahern’s A place called here and Amanda Quick’s Second sight. both authors have elements of supernatural and magic in them. I liikke! there’s actually more books out there that i want to buy, but i told myself, as long as i have some bucks to splurge, i will spend not more than $50 on books. well, at the mo, that is. haven’t told Ma i bought two books. not that she’s against it, but she would ‘advice’ me that the money spent on books could buy me two pairs of nice blouses. Alamak ma, can’t help it la when it comes to books!! i can live without pretty skirts and chunky rings, but not books. especially when i know i can spare $17 on a good book.
and spent on an adidas women’s deodorant. Nice smell, makes me feel perky and raving to do any tasks given. its a motivation when you’re working on datelines and your bestfriend is the pc.
and tv was ok. there’s persona non grata, a slow mo malay movie with the most talked about post-break up couple erra fazira and hans isaac. i noticed the movie doesn’t have much dialogue, more on expressions and and monologous two word conversations. erra’s portrayal as an amnesiac -lost in thailand- rich girl who paints is not that strong. but this is the movie you get to see her in xl shirts and pants and less make-up. there’s two singaporean actors in there, keagan kang and ronnie tan@nicholas lee.
and live the dream. alamak, don’t make me talk on this. how can eka mairina got in again??? she already won anugerah, got album, and won awards in APM 07, what more does she wants? give the chance to others la!! there’s more talented contestants in the audition, why she again?? didn’t they check her profile? she’s practically living a dream! bleh.
so, no reading of great transformation, no watching charmed online, (but am doing it in a while) and sewing, in my dreams~
and watching NDP always manage to bring out the patriot in me. the rare moments of actually feeling proud of being a singaporean. singing the national anthem and pledge, watching the march, and the fireworks, even though only on tv, we could almost feel the shared moment of celebrating the nation’s best, and everyone in red/white, you feel one with fellow countrymen.
that we are, after all, singaporeans.
long live the nation.
