wagging pinkie

after reading munnster's entry on the no speeding ads in australia, here's what i found on youtube:



would this work in singapore?

if you asked me, i'd rather just flash the finger in the middle...i mean, how many of those ah beng drivers with fast cars actually know the meaning of a wagging pinkie? they'd probably think it's a gesture to summon them to dig for gold in their nose mines...which may cause even more accidents if that were the case. haha.


sigh. i miss the skymobile.

jolly kids

overheard outside of 7-11 this afternoon as i was walking in to buy a fruit juice:

didi 1: oooi!!! i told you they'd check!!!
didi 2: yeah lah, i know lah, that's why i told them i forgot my ic mah!!!
didi 1: wah lau eh...heng ah...if not we sure kena already lah.
didi 2: forget ic means forget ic lah...wah lau eh. hahaha. shiok hor? i can feel it already... *takes long sip from can*

that's when i saw them...



...sipping on "jolly shandy"... =|

kids nowadays...but then again, they were from fairfield methodist secondary school (albeit in sec 2 at most)...the purported pai kia school...in my books at least...back in jc, the dua pai kia in our school was this scrawny kid from fmss...don't know how it got to be that way...

i guess when you're the only kid wearing gold jewellry and fashioning real louis vuitton sling bags, you get some status somehow (not unlike the grown-up world that we live in now).

and plus, he was going out with the school's hottest chic, who also happened to be my secondary school crush. nice huh? haha...

anyway, i managed to get into his good books, and we even played on the same basketball team together, winning a 3-on-3 tournament which we happened to have organised, and which we happened to have won...fair and square for that matter...really! no back arm tactics involved at all!

so i guess if you can't beat 'em (literally), might as well join 'em huh? hahaha. (though later, it got a bit awkward explaining why i always had so many "detentions" in school when he asked me to go out and fight in his gang for real...hehe.)

back to the jolly kids...don't drink. or else you might end up with a gang of followers and the hottest chic in school. so yeah, don't drink.

cheers. =)

hey all you sports fans out there...or rather, all you espn viewers out there...you gotta agree with me when i say that:

colette wong live on sportscenter perks you up after a long and shitty day at work...

ahhhh...much better. keep on smiling and i'll always be a fan! hehe...

cheers. =)

request from downstairs

bike ride anyone?



cheers. =)

huh??? how did he...

i wrote a post back in november 2005...mosquito repellent.

guess what? i saw "the mosquito" on tv last week...right after the ndp broadcast...



i must admit, his charm has improved since two years ago. his interview...though not by very much as you can see...

and as for his singing...well, let's just say that i try to avoid going to wala's on mondays before 9pm...all that "pretending to sing" makes me deaf...knn, if i was in his family, i would also hate music loh...

i know...i'm evil. muahaha. >=)

the i-don't-think-you-would-understand post

another one bites the dust...

like jason told me just now, "29" was meant to push you to your limits so that "30++" won't be so hard to swallow...damn right...the golden pig is doing a pretty good job this year for me.

alas, hard to swallow...but down it goes. congrats v...from the bottom of my heart. =)

cheers. =)

superficial

are any of you readers out there named "joan"?

i was surprised to receive this email on my gmail account today...

'ms. pang'* wrote:

"hihi,

sorry for the late reply..
just got your email from joan last nite..
u can send the member's invitation to my company email or xxx@hotmail.com.sg.
i will be on msn as well. Thanks alot.."

*no first names will be revealed...relax.


but the thing is...i didn't know who this 'joan' was, much less the writer of the email.

so i replied:

"hi,

sorry, but who's this? i don't know who 'joan' is either...much less anything about an invitation...haha.

cheers,

tien chi"


she replied:

"r u max hsu? (???)
'ms. pang' here..
u asked joan for my contact and asked her to pass me yr email the other day when i met u guys briefly at balcony.."


shit. i was at balcony, but like two weeks ago...don't tell me i was THAT high. no way...i don't even know any joans. and max hsu??? haha...that's not a name i'd ever use...just think of the implications in life man...maximum loser. haha. whatever, to each his own...

actually, come to think of it, 'sky' is not much better...but at least i'll still be able to win some at mahjong...haha. btw, max, if you're reading this, buddy, please ignore all of the above. cheers. =)

anyway, i replied:

"hmmm...nope...sorry, wrong number..."


but after some thought, i realised that hsutienchi@gmail.com isn't exactly an email that can be easily mistyped...damn...maybe max hsu's chinese name is tian chi or something similar!!! maybe i've got a secret identity running around out there somewhere...scary thought huh? haha.

so...to the joan(s) out there spreading my email around...please stand up, please stand up. i've got an invitation for you...to meet sky hsu. haha. especially if you look like:


joan chen
