Yea yea, the Kiasu (and some say Cheapo) Singaporean in action, but I was really just checking it out for my sis who is flying off to Shanghai tomorrow. Really.

The movies for November are pretty nice but the December ones are more ..... (you get the idea). How come they don't distribute the nice movies evenly over the 2 months!!! :( Angry.

That's all for the movies. As for the audio CDs, there's this Mozart: Complete Sonatas For Keyboard & Violin (Vol. 7 & 8), which I think Prizzy will like very much since Mozart is her idol.

And to Facebook Bejeweled addicts, they even have Bejeweled 2 (under games)!

...

Sigh. But for now, lunwen and Holiday packages* beckons.

*Holiday packages, in this context, has no relations to those Chan Brothers Holiday packages that you see flooding the newspapers advertorial page(s). Rather, I am refering to E_ _ _ s Department and M_ _ _s Department Holiday packages.

The Everlasting Waltz of Life

Friday, November 6, 20096:58 AM

"Good morning examiners, we are from DH012 and I am Zhen Zhou. This is Wei Jie, Lineatte, Christine and May Ping"

"Thank you Zhen Zhou. Now I shall talk about the values of life-long marriages in Singapore. Why do we want to conserve life-long marriage? This is because one of our 5 shared values of Singapore states that the family is the basic unit of society."

"Thank you Wei Jie. In view of the previous analyzed causes of divorce, as well as the present context where people have the mis-perception of the value of marriage, we have developed the following objectives to ultimately achieve our aim of conserving life-long marriages. They are:
Firstly, to improve interpersonal skills of couples as it can achieve effective communication which can help in avoiding conflicts with in-laws and even other conflicts that could threaten life-long marriages."

"Thank you Lineatte. Now I will tell you more about our next programme, STRETCH. To put it simply, STRETCH is a premarital programme. It is a programme targeted at couples who are considering tying the knot."

"Thank you Christine. Now, I will explain more about our next programme, MARS.
MARS, M-A-R-S, is actually the acronym for ‘Marriage and Relationship Studies’.
This is an education programme, and it can actually be considered the most important part of our project."


I WILL NOT BE HEARING ANY OF THESE STATEMENTS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.

OP HAS ENDED!
And my hairstyle today was totally perfect.

Now I am going to show off our products.

Designs that were rejected :'(

The M Card (Male and female version)

Reason for rejection: Too childish looking, does not fit theme. SOBS.



Poster raising awareness on the STRETCH programme.

Reason for rejection: "This looks like its from the phantom of the opera..."

This means that I stuck with the theme too well when I was drawing it for the US book. LOL. Cannot reuse! :( Anw I suddenly rmb now that its also considered plagiarism to republish my own work right-.- So its actually good that this is not accepted. LOL.




Designs that were accepted :)

Poster 1: Used to remind couples to appreciate their marriages. For those who are currently facing problems in their marriages, we want them to be reminded of their past memories together and that they have to give in to one another to make their marriage a successful one.

林宥嘉 感观/世界

Saturday, October 31, 20099:17 AM

Today is a happy day! :D
I finally got my hands on Yoga's 2nd album! HAPPY :D



I looped the whole album thrice already and this album is really really really damn freaking good. (I have just used 2 words that Christine deems as vulgar LOL.)

I think I have super good taste to like 林宥嘉 la. He's not good-looking la, sometimes his hair like ah pek, but his songs and his voice is freaking good.

My favourite songs so far: 关于我, 耳朵, 说谎, 心酸, 另一个自己, 感同身受

Ok that's around 1/2 the album liao. LOL. I like the rest too, just that these are favourites. My favourite favourite is 心酸 and 感同身受

My least favourite song is 飘 :O

I'm not a music critic la, so I can't really comment that much, but I feel inspired after listening. I sort of have this warm fuzzy feeling which is like :D and I don't really know how to describe the feeling and I can't be bothered to think of any fancy words LOL. It just feels like :) when you listen to him.

Though some people always say that he's like just another Eason Chan, and I can also feel it from his 口气 when he's singing sometimes, but I think he really got rid of the Eason Chan thing in this album :D

Plus the album looks cool! And its $15. Everybody should go buy it.


(I stole this photo from somewhere)

The whole album is actually made up of 3 posters and 1 thick cardboard piece. The posters are folded around the cardboard piece to take up the shape of a book and the entire thing is in a zip-lock bag. It looked so cool on the shelf when I went to buy it :)

I took like 10 minutes to open the zip lock bag LOL. Cause the scotch-tape thing is quite complicated and I had to tear them out one by one carefully. I was too anxious at first and tore a bit of the blue sticker, but I secured it back with the round sticker. LOL.

And WOW he looks so good in all the photos :D No more ah pek hairstyle! I went to check the credits, his hairstylist is someone called Johnny, the one who gives him horrible hairstyles only styled his hair in the 说谎 MV. No wonder it looks kind of ugly. LOL.

And I feel weird seeing him half-naked in that few seconds of the MV. I feel so embarassed for him-.- LOL. Anyway he said that he felt embarassed too. LOL. He mentioned in some article that his fans won't be dissapointed by his figure cause he has always harped on the fact that he has a no-so-good figure. I think I agree with this point. When I heard that there was going to be this scene I felt embarrassed even before watching it. LOL.

I think this whole album is better than the 1st one, which I already liked quite a lot. Shall have fun listening. And he better don't schedule his promotion period in Singapore when I'm in China, in which I think the probability of it happening is 9:1 :(

See, the scholarship is obstructing my happiness AGAIN. LOL.

Anyway I want to complain that the CD Rama in Pasir Ris is S-L-O-W. They didn't have the album in the afternoon on 30/10 when I went to get it :( And anw I found out that Cheryl likes 林宥嘉 too! :D

NEW ALBUM, SO EXCITING! :D

P.S. My 论文计划书 is finally heading in some direction! :D
