Chaser's War

Latest video posted is taken from youtube.com from the show The Chaser's War on Everything. Chaser's rock! This show is great for pure entertainment. Personally I think they are brilliant. They do all sorts of things, Ad road tests, What we've learnt form history etc etc! They rock! If you're looking for some laughter, this, is the perfect show to watch.

Perth, Australia

Posting this from Perth, Australia! Um, this keyboard is rather small so it's kinda hard to type. Just reached here this morning, which is at 7:05am on the 9th of November. This is the i-don't-even-know-what time I've been here, once again, to visit my parent's friends who migrated here about 17 to 18 years ago. It is quite cooling here because of the wind but the Sun is scorching. The weather here is nothing like that of Singapore's. It is now summer here in Australia, or coming to anyway. This weather is just perfect, not too hot but not too cold either. They've pushed the time one hour ahead of our's during summer for the last two summers (which includes this one) or else, the timing there and back home should be the same. I barely slept on the midnight flight (that's 'cos the other flights were fully booked) here as I was busy watching the shows on board the flight like Hairspray, High School Musical 2, No Reservations et cetera. The breakfast served at 4 am (or so) wasn't exactly very good I'd say. However I did enjoy the veggie roll thingy. Yummy! Gosh I just love being on a plane. Now I'm here, in Aus! So far, it's been rather relaxing. Met the little baby boy and he was really adorable. He just hugs everyone, well almost, hey it's not my fault he doesn't like me! I have quite a lot of time on my hands now, perhaps I'll make a card. I'm really rather nervous about meeting Stephanie since I haven't seen her in almost 4 years. Hopefully, we still enjoy being in each other's company. Who knows, things change and people change. I just hope for the best.

Halloween Blues

Two days ago (31st October), was Halloween. Once again, it has passed without much celebration in our country. Maybe some did celebrate, but it was not a great part of our country's culture. I have never tried treat-tricking and most probably am too old for it anyway. Here, in this part of the world, you do not see people dressing up as out-of-this-world figurines nor children going from door to door asking for candy. Last time this happened, it was on the News. Yeah, believe it or not. Halloween might not be something we celebrate but we still acknowledge this festival. It would be great however, to properly celebrate this one year. It will be a new experience to many around here in Asia and for people who do not have the opportunity to go overseas, they can still learn to appreciate such unique festivals that go on in other countries and also get to feel the atmosphere. It would be like going overseas at home. I personally, would like to have a chance to participate in such an event. I have heard so much about it and would really hope to joy in the fun. Perhaps someday, this day would come.
