Miami Vice

Today is Monday 25th Sept 2006.

Watched

on Saturday 23rd Sept.

What I can say is, if you have no free time and no extra $$ don’t bother to watch it.

Pardon me, but it just seems too censored and ???. It is the most ????? movie I’ve ever chosen to watch. Pardon my limited vocab too.

I didn’t want to watch it anyway, but no more newer choices.

And all my chocolates for those who knew before-watching-the-show that Gong-Li-is-in-it.

Just Me – Taken last week and last last last week and last last last last week

Guess whichs is before and whichs is after? =P

Chocoholic

I took so long to upload this collage that i forgot what I wanted to say.

Anyway, these are what I got from The Cocoa Trees:

Alot right? They look small but actually their very big. I haven found someone as chocolate siao as me yet. The closest is Mindy only. Why did I buy them? Because I want the membership card. The usual amount to apply for one is $200 but I have a voucher so I only need to spend $100. Not that I don’t think before I spend. I did. Consulted Madeleine and she said ‘You finish chocolates so fast. Not worth it!!! And too much chocolates not good!!!’ But I did it. I don’t regret.

Because,

How can a Chocoholic not have the Cocoa Trees membership card?!!

Call me siao. I don’t mind.

And Madeleine asked ‘What will happen if you finish ALLL these in one time ar?’

And the curious me went on to search on Chocolate overdose:

Women 17 Times More Likely To Die From Chocolate Overdose
Brown Death
Cole Slaugh
04/15/2003

A recent study, conducted by the University of California at Berkeley School of Behavioral Science, compared chocolate intake and it’s potentially deadly effects on men and women.

The first subject group included locking 20 hung over male fraternity freshmen in a room with an unlimited supply of Hershey’s bars. Another group consisted of 20 women taken from a local “Weight Watchers” class and locked in room with the same conditions.

Since the frat boys ended up vomiting more often (a condition that’s not normally associated with chocolate intake), they consumed far fewer candy bars than their feastingly fat female counterparts.

The women, on the other hand, actually ate so much chocolate that 17 of the 20 went into sugar shock and later died. Before keeling over, they demanded Chinese food, screamed at the cameras, cried about how ugly they were, and insisted on their right to use a bathroom. Conversely, the men just quietly passed out and urinated on themselves.

“This without a doubt, proves that chocolate is 17 times more addictive and likely to cause death to women,” stated chief researcher Brad Knittling. “Although, we’ve had a lot of complaints from women’s groups that the study was biased and unfair because the women ate all of the Hershey’s bars we had, and we had to substitute it with baker’s chocolate. But that’s to be expected from the Feminine leadership. They’ve always had that ‘penis complex’ thing gnawing at their inner groin. Besides, we only locked them in there for 24 hours. For God’s sake, show some self control people.”

The study, which cost US taxpayers $56 million in chocolate, mortuary fees and out of court settlements, is currently being reviewed by the university, the NIH and Amnesty International.

Want to join me as a Chocoholic? Pass this test first:

You might be a chocoholic if …

Are you a chocoholic? Answer these questions to help find out.

chocoholic (def): a person who has or claims to have an addiction to chocolate

• If you have more than 2 secret stashes of chocolate candy, you might be a chocoholic. (Be honest.)

• If your top 3 favorite candies all have chocolate in them, you might be a chocoholic.

• If you have more than 4 books at home on chocolate, you might be a chocoholic.

• If your favorite dessert is chocolate cake with chocolate frosting and chocolate ice-cream on the side, then you might be a chocoholic.

• If you name chocolate as one of the seven wonders of the world, you might be a chocoholic.

• If you bookmark more than 2 websites on the health benefits of chocolate, then you might be a chocoholic.

• If your favorite movie is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, you might be a chocoholic.

• If you own more than one chocolate-related T-Shirt, you might be a chocoholic. (If you actually wear that chocolate T-Shirt in public, just admit it. You are a chocoholic.)

• If you name your first-born child after your favorite chocolate candy – then you are a definite, full fledged chocoholic.

If you are a chocoholic, there you may want to try one of two possible cures:

CURE #1: Chocolate Overdose
In several cases a chocolate overdose will effectively kill your chocolate bug for a period of time. At some point, too much chocolate in a given month will cure your addiction – for at least a week. Your personal chocolate overdose limit will depend on your level of addiction. (We sell a variety of chocolates to help you do this in style.)

CURE #2: Chocolate Substitution
Chocolate substitution is another option, if the chocolate overdose doesn’t work. It involves starving your chocolate bug by offering it wholesome candy substitutes. The concept is that your body will gradually forget its craving for chocolate. (We sell a variety of delicious candies to help you do this in style.)

If one of these cures doesn’t work, well, at least you would enjoy the attempt . . .

Choco-feast anyone? =P

Toxicated

I think i’m toxicated. I’ve been junking alot and not moving much for the past 2 weeks. Lacking sleep also. (Lacking sleep here does not mean 2-4 hrs sleep a day. Its means having regular 7-10 hrs sleep a day but no 3-6hrs naps.) Therefore, bad skin, bad shape, bad mood, bad energy. Bad…

Anyway, hope my hormones go back into place soon. Wish me luck.

Watched The Banquet with mum and sis on Saturday and Friends with Money on Sunday with Peiying. I enjoyed both movies. Work today was idly.

I watched The Banquet because of Zhang Ziyi. I enjoyed it alot. I think the themes are quite typical – ‘Women equals trouble’. I enjoyed the way the generals are so loyal to the emperor and the way they slash their emperor’s enemy without thinking.
I admired Daniel Wu’s melancholy. An ABC with ang-mo accent when speaking English and cheena-accent when speaking Mandarin having a bad boy look and acting as a melancholic and lonely guy. Very attractive. I like Zhang Ziyi. Her role as an Empress. (She actually loved Daniel so much but married his father and then his uncle.) Her love for Daniel Wu. Her shrewdness and strength. And not to forget the impressive settings and wardrobe……. But I don’t really understand the last 5 minutes of the show. Can someone help me understand?

I watched Friends with Money because of Jennifer Aniston. I like the way she looks. But she don’t look at all attractive in this show. Her clothes are nothing glamourie and her role is far from glamor. But I still enjoyed the show. I can almost feel the dilemma and confusion the women are facing when they are faced with different challenges that women face. If you are looking for beautiful faces and wardrobe, a non-literature story, an endy ending and a starty start, and you’re not 18 yrs old yet, this show is not for you.

I’m think that men are insensitive beings.

In the show Friends with Money ‘her’ husband told her that ‘I see that you’re eating alota junk lately and their showing on your butt’. The women in her 40s replied ‘I don’t need you to tell me that my butt is getting fatter. How would you feel if I told you that your breath stinks almost all the time?’
The guy said ‘Well I would prefer if you tell me that so that I would just drink more water or brush my teeth?’
Yep it goes on, and they separated.

In the office my male boss told my female colleague ‘Wah *** you are overshadowing ***** already.’ *Ouch* How would you feel? And its not the first time. She’s given names Kim Sun Soon, Garfield, ‘Zhao Cai Mao’ etc.

Not saying that guys are nasty. Girls are the nasty ones. Just that they are just soo insensitive. Or are girls way too sensitive?

And I feel that males look down on female colleagues.

I needed help for my com last week and an ‘IT expert’ was called. I took 10 minutes to persuade him that what I said is true and is only the truth until something struck his mind and he understood the problem that I’m facing. He literally laughed away my ‘problem’ before that. I don’t know if you all understand what I said but I don’t care. The thing is I strongly feel that male colleagues look down on females colleagues.

CLEO Says NO!!!! to Self-Abuse!

Stop self-loathing!!! Love yourself and take good care of yourself!! You deserve it. Really.

My Pigs

I can upload pics already!!! Actually wanted to show you all the perfumes. But since its so back-dated so… Nvm la…

Show you my darlings first!!!

This is Ringo!!! I got him in Aug 2005 when he was around a month old i think…

Taken this year at home

Taken at ECP some time ago, tink last year

This is Brownie!!!!!!! Bought him this year, forgot when…

And both of them together!!! I took this then to show the difference in size.

But Brownie is catching up with Ringo now already!! No longer scrawny and skinny.

Sometimes I really feel like hugging them but they’re too small =/ And Ringo bites sometimes. He’s too stupid to differentiate food from non-food. Btw they are pure herbivores. They are really lovely!!! Brownie is much smarter. I would say that their intelligence ratio is 10:1. That’s how stupid RIngo is and how smart Brownie is.

Btw, both are guys, i think.

I read that Guinea pigs live up to 6 years. I wonder how long I can keep them. Even though I don’t really have time for them, but I share my green apples with them everyday. Even though I seldom bathe them, I really do miss them. Hope they don’t die so soon. They’re really lovable ^_^

Extremist

I suspect I’m an extremist. Once I eat, I kept having the urge to eat and once I didn’t, I don’t feel like eating. Once I start sleeping, I would keep sleeping and sleeping. Once I start working, I would work and work and I don’t seem to need any rest. And since I’m already dark since birth, I will remain dark and get darker and darker. -_-”’

Yesterday is a Saturday. Went to collect my new notebook. Yes on a Saturday just to collect notebook all the way to NUS. I hate new notebooks. Why? Because I have to install and update soo many new stuffs and then I’d have soo much problem with internet connecting etc etc etc But why new one? Because my 25yr old sister wants ‘privacy’.-_-… And she fights to use the new one but failed the debate with my Mum ‘glamorously’. It just doesn’t make sense right? This is joined to NUS domain and she works nearly all the time and the rest of the time she’s sleeping and I do use a little more of the features of the com than her….

I was emptying everything from the Big Fijitsu Box when the guy helping me to join domain to NUS said ‘The box cannot throw yet. To be used to exchange one for one within 7 days if anything goes wrong’ -_-”’ So I carried everything and walked from YIH back to Arts Forum to wait for Vicky-who-was-still-on-bed-who-told-me-that-he’s-coming-to-pick-me-up. When I finally settled in the forum with the bulky and heavy stuffs, i got a stomachache. SO, i packed everything……………………….(this will go on forever)

After we left NUS he fetched me to don’t-know-where-when-i-tot-we-were-already-gg-home to view the OIL Tanks that he’d been ‘looking after’ the past few days. And we ate MAC at somewhere there. Think its all near NUS there. The sleekier and cheaper Chicken Grilled Foldover didn’t manage to fill me up XD And the fries were ‘fishy’, they just don’t look and taste right.

Then we went SKA and he got me to wash his van for him -_-”’ So tiring. Then he had diarrhea. Mine came 2 hours later. Must be the fries.

And the new Jean-Paul-Gaultier Magnetic perfume is so romantic!! Yes I bought 2 of this last week and the sales-aunt gave us a free travel-lotion, free 40ml, free-travel-shower foam, and psycho me to buy the deodorant which would get us a free after-shave cream, some sample perfume and a free 10ml and…… When she tried the hair mist on me, I said ‘Wah lidat nonid to wash hair’ -_-”’

Was just wondering if a girl uses Gaultier2 shower foam, then Gaultier2 lotion, then Gaultier2 perfume, then hair mist, how would she smell like?

Reasons for starting and not starting a blog

Basically I’ve decided to start a blog not because
1) I have such an exciting life that I can’t wait to share
2) I have plastic eyes/noses/busts that people enjoy looking at

I am simply bored here in the humid afternoon of Friday. So I’ve decided to share my life here with my friends.

As known, I’m a quiet girl with a naturally tanned skin who rarely socializes who adores Hello Kitty who hasn’t gone clubbing before. Less known, I’m a lazy and over-emotional girl in NUS third year FASS who is notorious for skipping lectures and snacking constantly who stays home all weekend to sleep and eat.

As an introvert, the reasons pulling me back from starting a blog is because
1) I have no life
2) I’m afraid for other’s to know about my life
3) I have a life that is better not to be seen
4) I don’t put on make up
5) I don’t know how to change blogskin
6) I don’t know how to upload photos
7) I am shy

The reasons for me bracing myself to start a blog is because
1) So that I do not need to wait for people like Xiaxue or Dawn to update their posts
2) So that I have something to do infront of this Fujitsu notebook instead of re-checking my emails and waiting for people like Xiaxue or Dawn to update their posts
3) So that I can have a headstart on letting more people know more about me that would hopefully get me out of my box
4) I really have so many thoughts sometimes that I can’t wait to share with all of you guys!!
5) So that you guys know how I’ve grown to be like – fatter thinner shorter taller fairer darker
6) So that you guys would not get a shock when you find me on the obituary
7) So that you guys would think of me when you are bored
So that I can sell my antiques here
