Am I really useless?

Sigh.

United Breaks Guitars

What happened was this guy was travelling with his band by United Airlines and they broke his guitar. He tried to get them to settle this for the past year but there was no way he could get compensation. And he promised the last UA officer that he'd write three songs about this.

Here's Song 1. Song 2 and 3 are not out yet.



Instead of showing a very angry video I think this is quite light-hearted actually, and brings a little laugh too.

In a week the video's viewership hit more than a million, far more than he expected, and here's a video response from the 'victim' himself.

Natural World

I've been hearing this song for the past week.



Summer and autumn and winter and spring! Every season there's a special song to sing, to bring the season in!

Da daaa da daaa da daaa da da

1st driving lesson.

I made a U-turn today and my heart almost leapt out of my mouth.

And then a group of foreigners dashed across the road. Though I was driving slowly. Like, damn slow, the speedometer didn't even looked like it moved. HAHA. But still, I was so freaked out.

I feel very troubled.

Because everyone is saying no but there's something inside me that says yes.

WATCH THIS.

I'm serious.

Other than the sourly-cute song, watch the MV! It's damn cool!

Remember Luigi?

You don't?? Oh man, he's Mario's green sidekick.

Ooops, better not let him hear that.

Watch this.

It's damn funny! Must watch all the way to the very end.

Anyway, there's another video worth sharing.



At first I didn't really bother about the body paint thing, I merely watched the video and waited for a body-painted guy to come along.

It was until the third person then I realised what's so different about this video.

I guess I was distracted by their kiwi accent.

Please be considerate.

To sound nice: Please don't ever consider suicide, there are better ways to solve your problem. Be considerate to the people around you who will be hurt if you disppear from the surface of the Earth.

To sound mean: Please don't ever consider suicide by jumping onto MRT tracks during peak hours/meal times. Be considerate to the hungry and tired people who might be holding their bladder. That's hundreds of people.

Look, this is what you caused.

At Kallang MRT on Friday evening

And then they turned off some of the lights within the train to save energy as much was wasted.


I mean, you must had been really desperate to do that.

But you know, please don't. Don't ever, ever want to jump onto the tracks.

H1N1

Yikes.

Two schools delay opening by a week.

If you can't be bothered to read, here's what is bothering me:

As for Hai Sing Catholic School, a trainee teacher attached to the school tested positive for the H1N1 virus on June 27. He attended a staff seminar on the morning of June 25 and six staff who were in close contact have been asked to take Leave of Absence from June 26 to July 2.

As only a small percentage of the school staff is on Leave of Absence, the school will operate as usual and reopen on Monday, June 29.

=S I still think they shouldn't open that soon. Maybe like, next week? In any way someone in the school was infected ma, who knows on Day 1 several kids might be infected. Scarly they never wash the school properly. =SSS

Baba Yetu

RC showed me this video just now.

It's Baba Yetu from Civilizations IV of Video Games Live - Part 1, a piece NUSWS is gonna perform tomorrow at East Coast Park. Playground @ Big Splash.

It's nicer than what was arranged in the piece haha.

June 20

is the Gregorian date of my lunar birthday this year. Which is 28th of the 5th month in the lunar calendar.

I had mee sua with red eggs for dinner which rather customary when it's your lunar birthday. Very little bother with this detail now, but my family still does.

I haven't had this mee sua for the past two or three or more birthdays because either I forgot or I wasn't home or whatsoever.

Finally got to eat it! =D

Hmm.

I really need to watch my weight.

Eat and eat and eat.

Why must greed be a sin.

Current favourite drink.

It retails for SGD 1.30 at almost all 7-Eleven stores.

Almost all. The one at Buangkok MRT doesn't have.

Love it.

It's not like reallllly milky that makes you full after drinking. It's actually quite refreshing, surprisingly.

Kids.

This happened when I went to teach a bunch of kids this morning.

Kid 1: (walks over) HELLO AUNTIE!!!

Me: -_- yyyeeess? (that kid is supposed to call me teacher.)

Kid 1: You married already not?

Me: Noooo.

Kid 1: Too bad!

Me: -_-

Kid 2: You got boyfriend?

Me: Why must I tell you??

Kid 2: Who is he?

Me: Why must I tell you?

Kid 2: (telling his friends) She's getting married soon la, she got boyfriend already. She's getting married soon!

*kids giggle all over the room*

-_-

You have brains in your head.

I have a brain, and I have feet.

I just need to have courage to face the obstacles that might come, and patience for a good future.

And work hard.

I'm deciding.

Envious.

Now they get to learn photography as part of Home Economics.

My, am I deprived!

I don't even classify photography as skills I can learn in Homec.

I also want.

Know your mushrooms

This is good knowledge!

Just that I don't really know how to appreciate. But it's still good knowledge =Þ

Check it out!

Know Your Mushrooms

勇气。

真希望 我是个很勇敢的人 为自己生活都能做出最好的选择 现在看来 虽然一切都太迟了 后悔都来不及

还是因为我没有勇气

但我只可以向前走 也希望将来长远的路 即使艰难辛苦 我都不会感到一丝后悔 天天都活得很满足

SERIOUS STM.

Please read the previous post before reading this one.

I have serious short-term memory.

Serious.

Do you know of any medical help I can get for this?

I might even forget that I blogged.

This is bad.

Okay the thing is I took photos of the mee goreng (which was not spicy at all, to my dismay).

I totally forgot I sorted them in the food folder already.

T_T

Alrights, this food porn post will be a minor one. It's not something that I can stop and take photos of because I was afraid the noodles will get charred. It just carries on, you know.

And it was kinda my first time with a wok without my mum around. She went to Malacca for that weekend.

The recipe called for me to cook the noodles first.


I think that was a mistake because the noodles were too soggy in the end. Mee goreng isn't supposed to be soggy you know.

Here's the sauce that goes into the noodles.


And egg. Only two eggs left in the fridge, when I was hoping for an egg for each person. Too bad. It was really short on the eggs.


Heat up the wok.


And a series of events happened. This was what I got thereafter.


Looks like Chinese fried noodles right. 福建面。

But tasteless, that's all. I hadn't put the sauce mixture in.

Fry fry fry.

Sauce in.

Stir stir stir.

Fry fry fry.


Pardon the cabbage haha.


Totally unlike the mee goreng I know. The recipe I got was from a Malaysian blog. And I wonder if I added the wrong kind of chilli sauce.

Who cares.


Got prawn.

Other than the lack of spiciness and soggy noodles, this was edible and quite nice actually =Þ

I miss the mee goreng at my primary school.

STM

I remembered that I goreng-ed mee last Sunday.

And then I recalled that I forgot to take a photo of it =(((((((

Never mind la. Small thing.

But the mee goreng was quite nice, my family lapped it up.

That was just a nice way of putting it. HAHA.

At least we finished everything.
