army open house is over! that was 5 days of sleeping at 12 and waking at 5. really didn't know so many people wanted to come, even students from china and even some angmos. it was practically a tourist attraction. i dicovered that the safti library was a good place to sleep and read political books. i read about che guavera and the joke about how he became the head of cuba's national bank-- fidel castro: is there an economist in here? che, hearing 'communist', raised his hand... there was the live safari ride where my friends and i were entertained by a mother and son's comments. they were like,"is that all?".. "are the soldiers real? they look like statues".. (after the tank fired for a while) "we got tricked again".. and there were many freebies to collect but i couldn't be bothered. saw many people too. but missed out on some too. also saw zoe tay, dasmond koh, fiona xie, felicia chin and vincent ng and witnessed their ch8 brand of humour. but zoe was funny, she was like kym ng-irate housewife-school teacher and even made a guy camo his face to win the nokia phone.

now watching ch8 variety shows, like the one with irene ang being a maid and the one where belinda lee finds the prettiest girls and guys in schools. cannot make it.
i was on the train today when i thought, why does the idea of slotting the mrt fare card thru the gate machine seem so foreign and ancient even though the ex link card came not too long ago. think i'm getting old.

what's been good..
googled olinda cho and found neville's blog. so what i'm gonna do is olinda cho olinda cho rox. haha.
my abstaining from uttering vulgarities for one week.. not exactly working though
paris hilton looking horrible at the mtv video music awards, check out 8 days you'll know what i mean.
some genius came up with the idea of wrapping a hotdog in waffle...it's sweet and salty at the same time.
franz ferdinand has won the mercury music prize.
an adorable 5 year old girl at the open house. so cute! and i'm not a paedophile ok..
what sucks..
the absolute tragedy that was beslan. there's so much palpable anguish that my heart aches for those kids. damn terrorists. i hope they burn in hell.
