Let me think...what can I recall from the past week to blog about?

1) Asian Cup Finals. China vs. Japan. Japan won. Whooohooo~ Chinese burnt Japanese flag to show displeasure. Made me mad witnessing their lousy sportmanship. Am not biased but always get excited when I see Japanese team play. Afterall, I used to date Suzuki. Har har. Actually, no but it is very nostalgic when I recall the time I used to cheer for the team at the 2002 World Cup. We (+ Jas) also used to paint our nails like the German flag to show our support. Dorothea was very touched and we 3 fell for Michael Ballack.

2) Saw YET another advertisement at the bus stop about Sex & the City. Arg, they are everywhere! Thing is, I don't understand the show's popularity. Before I begin any potential rant, all S&C fans please excuse me or turn off the monitor NOW. I don't hate the show like I hate Bridget Jones' Diary. And when I talk about Bridget Jones, I meant the lousy piece of shit book. The movie was ok since I like Renee Zellweger; she has lovely lips. The 4 women in S&C aren't as stupid as Jones but equally sad enough. I mean, they whine alot too though they earn more, wear more expensive clothes and eat at swanky places. Still, I find the series only OK at best. When you have nothing better to do, S&C is very entertaining. At least I haven't fell asleep watching it like I tried with O.C. Hahahaha fwaa~ I am making many enemies. I love the clothes Carrie wears but that's about it. It's cool how the 4 women are so comfortable with each other they share ALL their sex secrets. I don't mind if my friends are more forthcoming in that respect but it might be an overkill if they do it like S&C....ALL THE TIME. And EVERY girl says she is just like Carrie. (Why Carrie?! Samantha is the one with more fun. Mmmmm...Samantha is the blond one built like a sex fiend right?) I can't say I don't get it but I'd prefer identifying with one of them FRIENDS character than in S&C. More women want have 3 girlfriends to live like Carrie and gang. Me? I'd prefer 3 girlfriends and another 3-4 guys to live like FRIENDS. (That is, if I want to live like a sitcom at all.) With guys around, even when half the girls go down with PMS, it's not that insane. Anyway, while Singapore women devour S&C on cable, I shall be retreating to the comforts of Stephanie Plum and Lula.

3) Hate people whispering IN FRONT of me in full view at the MRT. Very rude and it makes everyone very self conscious. Anyway, it must be the colourful dresser talking to me. He he. Guess who. She's an ah lian deep down and she doesn't know it.

4) The Hungry Ghost Festival starts tonight so no more swimming and late nights for me on mum's orders. There is the distinct smell of burning everywhere and it's creepy when you go home to see remnants of red candles and paper money all over the street. It's gonna last one whole month...arg. Anyway, anyone with a good supernatural story? Please set an appointment with me and I shall gladly listen to it.
