Changes Change: Change of Fools

"All conditioned things are of impermanence. Only when one truly lets go does he attain eternity" -Lord Buddha

Today went to WL's blog. Realise that he changed his blog skin. In fact this period of time everybody changed their skins.

Off they peel away the old skins, as easy as german sausage skins. On come the new ones, as fast as tiger skin in winter. Wahaha. What a bad anology. Confirm will fail the english module i am going to take next semester.

Then on MSN, I was telling WL everybody changed. Only I am constant.

Although it was just a passing remark, on hindsight, I realise it was quite true.....

Guo Liang become a wittier host. GEKL become ABIT more talented (not that he is very) WL blog skin change. KR become much smarter. SY become more pretty. XL became a much more mature person and better actress. YX grew up into a fine young man from a small little primary school kid...

Everybody changed in some way as I know it. Some becomes more mature. Some becomes busier. Some change more handsome or prettier. Some become smarter. Some now are nicer people. Some become richer and more well to do. Some not so close to me anymore. Some I realise become much better than me. Everybody changed, for better or for worse.

Only me.... I never change at all, still at square one... still on the same spot....

I am still loud and sometimes obnoxious. Still ever the lazy, ever the oddball, ever the average person I have always been. Still as poor as ever. Still as lonely, still as straightforward... still as unhealthy.

But I dont like changes. In fact I hate changes. I think always change must adapt and adapt.... very tiring. From young I always ask myself at some point of time: 'Why must change? Why cannot remain the same'

But society change alreadi. You must change.

If you dont have any changes: boring.

If you still remain the same: lousy

If you are still you after twenty years: Outdated

Change and its chain of fools pursuing it is the only constant in this world.

Perhaps they can now add me into the equation as the other constant.

Haha

2013: A Look Ahead

The new year is coming soon. What does this mean?

This means that 2005 is about to end. Haha, no lah. This means that time to make new year resolutions

2006. A year where new hopes lie. A year where new challenges wait. A year where new ( and hopefully more devastating) disasters will be in the making. Who says we will have an easy life?

But just when every other Tom Dick and Harry is drafting their 2006 new year resolutions, I decided to look ahead to year 2013.

First, this is something unique.Who would be as creative as me to look forward to so far ahead?

Secondly, this is gehirun.blogspot.com. As always, I must provide something interesting for my readers to enjoy.

Anyway, my recent years are more or less settled already. Assuming no major disruptions or no YLW Agency tour (YLW=Yan Luo Wang, aka King of Hades), I would be completing my education in Brainforest by 2009 and completing my MOE contract within 4 years. If you count the years, I would be a free man by 2013, confirm plus chop.

It is then when I had no exact plans, except that I want to earn lotsa lotsa money and have lotsa lotsa sons to play table tennis with. That is why I would want to look ahead to 2013.

The other day went for a 'Superhost' Live recording at Mediacorp. There, while waiting for the show to start, I was explaining to WL about the type of lights being used on stage and the various technical aspects. All this I learn during stage production course and I was just trying to see if I could remember all that I learned. Anyway WL was very patient and listen to me. Like a volunteer or a nurse listening to an abandoned old man talk and talk like that.

Then there at that point of time, I realise my passion for stage was rekindled strongly. I could even extend my knowledge to TV. So I concluded that after I quit MOE, I might spend two years in Hong Kong to learn theatre studies and stage production, like my Shifu (teacher)

I also want to open a business. The concept already consolidated by our super creative GEKL. When come 2013, I will find two partners and open the business.Then can fufil my goal of earning lotsa money

Maybe I will marry a vietnam bride. Like that then can go adopt a few sons. After that, i will allow my vietnamese wife to do her own things. She want to learn english or study, send her on my expense. She want to get a job let her go. She find another boyfriend, then let her divorce me. But must have pre-nups lah. Later everything must give her half not worth it.

Yeh! 2013 got plans liao.

2005. Lucky Ending

I think this year is quite lucky for me

I managed to find activities for myself. Actually is not I find one. People invite me around. Haha

First, on christmas eve, I went dinner with GEKL. Spent alot of money eating at some thai restaurant. The food is not bad but the service was quite terrible. Anyway the waiter never count in a cup of coke i drank so I got a cup of coke light free. Yeh, lucky me!

Then I went to GEKL friend's house for a mahjong session. His two other friends are quite friendly, not like him. I was thinking why I so unlucky get friends like GEKL not like his friends. Anyway, thats beside the point. I lost quite alot of money first round and was literally sweating away. I could see my gift money going down the drain. But luckily I manage to turn tables around and win 6 dollars. Haha, lousy ending because had to use this six dollars to sent stupid gekL home. Haha

Anyway, during the mahjong I see bad people get retribution. GekL whole year scold me stupid and ugly and unfunny. Then at the mahjong table I think mahjong god decided to punish him. Haha, he one person lost to three. This teaches us moral lesson: It pays to be kind.

We played overnight. When I got home on Christmas Day, I only had two hours of sleep before I went to my huay guan teacher's house to party. Her name is Mrs Peifang. She can really cook. When I arrive, there was just so much food waiting for us. And everything is really fantastic. As fantastic as Fantastic Four. Haha

A lot of people came for the party and we really had a fun time talking laughing playing cards and mahjong and of course eating. Then there is also gift exchange. When presents are handed out, suddenly I feel like an elderly of a lonely old folks home waiting to be humored by volunteers. But I really felt very happy for the first christmas of so many past ones. I felt grateful for Mrs Peifang. If not for her to spend so much effort I would be spending christmas day at home being bored or waiting for people to come onto MSN.

Thank you GEKL, for providing me with so much laughter during Christmas eve. Watching you get punished at the mahjong table was really quite funny

Thank you Mrs Peifang. I cannot put my grate into words at all. Thank you again.

New Year I already have an appointment with GEKL and WL. Going to do something crazy but I think we going to end up playing mahjong again. Hopefully bad people will not go unpunished.

2005. I have a lucky end to it. I couldnt have any more to ask for..... for this year. Hopefully future years also have this kind of ending. Then I wont have to fear the lonely end to my dynasty.

Resultation

The results are out

At first I was very pleasantly surprised by my CAP score which hit my minimum target and expectations. I got a four out of 5

Then when I heard my friends' results, I feel like a piece of shit getting pushed from the human canal into the toilet bowl. Because a lot of friends get 4.5 and 4.6 and 4.7. My mom asked if it is so easy to get 4.5 and above why I never get.

I kept very quiet and concentrate on my soup

In my heart I was thinking: " (insert bad word here) lah. Of course lah. They study day, they study night, they study when in Brainforest, they study when they out of Brainforest, they even study when they in shitting forest, where can dun do well"

But seriously, I feel defeated. My study partner in school also got 4.63
I sincerely feel happy for him lah. But I dun like losing to people, especially friends close to me. The feeling of defeat is not good and to me, it is super bitter....

GEKL say I very calculative and he say I shouldnt compare... He tell me now see results no use one. Must go out and see how much we earn then we know who really better. He also say results is for yourself one, not do for other people. Yeah lah but when you see how well people do den you will noe whether you do enough for yourself or not mah.

I also abit agree with him (secretly in a corner of my heart).... but it is not a good feeling to lose anyway. These words we say to ourselves because we want to escape from reality. We are less competant than other people. My teacher in huay guan oso said these consoling words to me when I got poor o level results

He say results can do well means very good oredi. Who earn most money who is the king.
But I feel like a joker now. And the present matters most....

Aiyah dun noe what shit I talking about oso actually. It is the festive season and GEKL say even want to kao beh must go back to school den start. For now must enjoy

For fans of gehirun.blogspot.com HAPPY CHRISTMAS AND A MERRY NEW YEAR

Offliners

I see alot of people offline on my MSN list nowadays.

In fact, MOST people are offline this week. Probably because of the festive season and everybody is either overseas or out and about with friends and family

But this makes everything seem so boring. There are no new blog postings to read on the internet. 'Hello everybody? Random Blog Awards are coming up. You all not blogging how are you going to win anything.'

Nobody to talk to on MSN, except for that boring Basu and some other miscellaneous people.

This probably also reflects how 'no-life' I am. After stage production rehearsals stopped for holidays, I have hardly anything else to do. No friends to go out with except maybe WL and GEKL. Nothing to do except be on net and occasional mahjong sessions.

Lucky Christmas I am going for some lunch party and eve I got dinner with somebody. Otherwise I would be so pathetic.

When I was walking to the temple to pray, saw 2 male star idols: Kang Chengxi and William (eliminated) Wanted to stare and find out what they were doing but decided against it because later people think I am weird or something. Anyway they were waiting for bus and look same as on TV. Near the temple there all old ladies and old men so nobody go surround them or ask for signatures.

That is probably the most interesting thing to happen to me. If this continues on, I rather be back at the Brainforest of Clementi quickly. At least there are more happening things there and I can have more things to blog about.

For now, I still have to stare at the list of 'offline' people and wait for somebody to become 'online'

One Bus Ride: 2 Mad Men

Was waiting for my bus home after tuition at near hougang there.

While waiting I could hear whistle sounds periodically. I was thinking why the hell would there be whistle sounds so late into the night? Then suddenly, somebody blew the whistle loudly next to where I was sitting.

The fat auntie sitting next to me jumped.Out of my shock, I scolded 'cheebye' softly and turned around to look. There was a malay man standing there holding a whistle walking around.

I observed him secretly and realised he was mad. He walked around aimlessly and for no rhyme or reason he would blow the cheebye whistle. At that moment quite pissed because I was wondering why allow mad man to walk around. Later people get heart attack due to whistle blowing den how.... Wanted to call james to come and catch the mad man. No, john. James doesnt work as IMH nurse. He is a NSPI.

Later when I board the bus, the whistle blower stood at the entrance of the bus. The situation got worse. The man got two whistles. He didnt board the bus but call out to the bus driver 'Ah pui (ah fat), breeeeeeeeh (whistle sound). ah pui, breeeeeeh!' . Yah, the bus driver was a fat man. haha

The bus driver didnt go immediately but stop there for awhile. I didnt know why he never straightaway drive off. If i were the bus driver and some mad man call me 'ah pui' den I would knock down the stupid man.

After that event on the way home, the bus driver seems to have caught the crazy virus. He started singing some indian song and I could see one of his hands gesturing as if he was dancing. He also never pay attention to passengers and cause a woman to miss her stops by two busstops

Was wondering why bus companies employ mad man to drive their buses. Maybe their interview is like that:

Boss: Why you want to drive buses?

Driver: I love to torture the passengers with my rude attitude and crazy acts and in the end they will be so angry that they will buy private cars to boost singapore's economy. Then the bus companies can raise their prices because they can say not enough profits

Boss: How did you know our company motto? Good you are hired

Anyway while on the bus I made a mental note: When i start working get a car. Save myself from meeting mad people

Ali BaBa and the 21 Thieves

Yes that is the name of my stage production.

It is a children's musical but suitable for adults also

Today we just ended the first internal full rehearsals and will be breaking for three weeks for the holidays. Seven years ago I acted in the same show. Seven years later this remake involves me too, but as a stage manager.

Seven years ago, I had lotsa of fun during the production. I laughed, played, acted and danced my way through the show. I made a lot of friends as well

When the show ended.... the curtains came down..... the music ended and the people left. At that moment and days after that, there was a deep feeling of loss in me. There was a huge gaping hole. I felt a part of me gone forever. And I cried for two days. I dreamt about the production and its people for five days. In my mind, the show never ended. It went on and on.

Seven years on this day, I still am having fun. The production involves a totally different group of people. Strangers at first, I felt there is a barrier between me and the rest. But after today, I feel I am beginning to enjoy myself. I feel i am getting to know all these people better. Most importantly I feel they are beginning to like me as well....

I am very afraid that I will repeat my silly actions (crying) again after the show ends in march. Crying makes people weak and I dun wanna be weak. But one thing for sure, I will miss these people after the production.... because for now, I am beginning to miss them for the holidays already

If I were GOD...

That day on the bus I was wondering what it would be like if I ran the world. After making a list of things I would do if I were God, I decided that it was the world's great fortune that I didnt ran this world. Thank goodness...

Here is the list I drew up on the bus about the things that I wanted to do...

1) I would go to any SAF camp cookhouses during lunchtime and induce a mass orgasm through telepathic activation

2) Li Jiawei would be world no. 1 table tennis player

3) Anybody would drop dead instantly if they throw any litter

4) All ah bengs and ah lians would be caged up in zoos

5) Anybody who spit who be instantly turned into ugly monsters

6) Anybody who dont keep left on MRT escalaters would uncontrollably strip themselves naked and bang themselves against the wall

7) Those whose handphones ring in the cinema would turn into toilet bowls

8) All super fat bullies must be buried and turn into fossil fuels

9) All bitchy girls must have very low voices

10) Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy become very good gay partners.

Haha

The Lonely End of a Dynasty

"From attachment springs grief. From affection springs fear. For he who is wholly free from these, there is no grief there is no fear" -Verse 213/214 - Dhammapada

I never ever thought that I ever need a girlfriend.... or a wife. I thought that friends were everything. So what if you dont have a girl who you can love or loves you. So what there is no person to accompany you and comfort you?

I always thought friends could serve just the same function. Friends, money were my top priorities....... they still are.

When I was fifteen, I thought that love can never be forever. I had the naive thought that true friends are forever. I had a best friend then. He did everything with me. Play arcade, watch movies, gossip eat shop.

As I slowly grow up into the world of darkness and moral grey areas, I realise that friends are also of impermanence. My best friend and I drifted apart and hardly contact each other these days. In fact, never.

Still I didnt think that love was important. I had other friends to accompany me on life's journey. Life still was going on. I am making more and more money by the day. I was happy.

But now I face a very big problem. When I went into the army, I knew this would become my biggest problem. Friends with girlfriends.

I could understand why people put their girlfriends as top priorities. I dont feel angry. I dont blame them. They after all are possibly going to spend their lives with their girlfriends.

But I could see my friends dwindling. Everybody seems to find somebody dear to them. I have less and less people to go out on weekends. Everyone seems to have other priorities during festive occasions.

This Christmas and New Year, I hope they will never come. I dont want to spend these days at home watching channel 5/8/U.

Smart aand wise as I might be, when it comes to love, I know nothing except for the theories. I still dont wanna love. Sociology taught me that I am being compelled by society to do so. Though my brain tells me that this is a smart move to go out now and look for love, my heart tells me it is not my priority. Not at all

I always love to watch/read accounts of great dynasties coming to an end.

I know when my dynasty come to an end, I would be lonely.

There will be a lonely end to my dynasty.

The Orgasm Look

Today was taking the MRT train to my rehearsals

There was a Chinaman sitting opposite me in the train. John, dun ask me how I noe it is a chinaman. HE IS a Chinaman

Aniwae, at first when I look at him he was pleasantly smiling to himself. I was quite surprised because these days you hardly find a chinaman with a pleasant smile on his face. Most have the snotty or arrogant look because their country is now a economic dragon.

I concluded he must be crazy.

But soon he started to fall asleep. When he was sleeping, his smile grew wider and wider, as if he was having a very nice dream. Then after awhile, to my upmost horror, he had a look on his face where he look like he was having an orgasm.

People, I am not trying to be disgusting or funny.

Its true, he gave the orgasm look while sleeping.

I was petrified. Not to mention really really disgusted. It seems that I am the only one on the train kaypoh enough to notice it. I was wondering how long more do I have to sit there in full view of the 'orgasm look'

Lucky I reached braddell soon enough and got off. I made up my mind to either read something or sleep in the train next time I ride the train. Dun wanna rish another nightmare like this

GTK - Great Teacher K.T.

I was surprised and quite flattered by one of my friend's questions on thursday

Was doing rehearsals for my upcoming stage production in march 2006. During one of the breaks, my friend ask me why I never join 'superhost', the ongoing TV competition for hosts. I laughed out loud 'HAHA' and told him dun joke like that

He said since I had quite sharp wit and humour den how come never join.

I didnt know I can give people such impressions. GEKL always say I am stupid, not funny. I guess shouldnt always listen to a pig

To his question, I told my friend if I had joined den there would be no competition because I would probably beat everybody hands down.

My answer seems arrogant. But at least I know it is false. I wouldnt beat everybody hands down. I would only beat most of them. haha.

Anyway, the real reason was that I couldnt bear to give up the stage production. At the start of 'Superhost' I had already join the production halfway. If I really join the competition then I would have to quit the team. I am not a person to do such things unlike a certain Huang Borong Gerrard. Theatre has been one of my passions and too dear to give up for fame.

Also, I had a MOE bond. It is a lifegiver in my years in the Brainforest of Clementi. Gives me books and food and warm clothing. I must treasure it and study hard to repay the favour. Not go be some competitor

So for now I dun wanna be a Superhost.

I just want to be GTK - Great Teacher K.T.

Haha

CryBaby

I hope my fans bear with this blog posting but i really feel strongly about this issue

Got one crybaby on TV. Really noe how to cry

Cry when about to get eliminated from competition. Cry when saved from elimination by audience voting. Cry when see video tape, cry when announce his name. Cry when hugging other contestants. Cry when appealing to help him. Cry when thanking his supporters. Cry when saying his feelings. Cry when crying.Cry here cry there cry everywhere....

Why got people, somemore a boy about to go to NS, like to cry so much?

What so sad that you must cry through 60 min worth of TV time. Not say it is crying competition. Not say the cat at home or the fav pet rabbit die. Jus elimination from some hosting competition need to cry like the WHOLE life never cry before like that.

Handsome?? No no god damn ugly somemore. Then still want to cry.In the end he really look like monster. Make me have nightmares.

Fuck lah.Boys dun cry so easily. Unless u have damn good looks and a girlfriend dying of leukemia ( aka korean drama), you dun cry easily. Especially when u are ugly. Like that you wanna go army die of dehydration because too much to cry over.

Singaporean Boys dun learn hor. This one bad example.

Lucky not my son. One tight slap let him go die.........

The BrainForest of Clementi

For those of my fans who still dont noe where the brainforest of Clementi is, I am actually refering to National University of Singapore (NUS).

GEKL first started using this term in one of his blog posting to describe himself being lost in NUS, as if lost in a forest. I think it is quite a funny and appropriate term. Maybe one day when NUS wants to name its new buildings or campuses or parks, I will submit this as a suggestion to the dean. Imagine one of our hostels being called... BrainForest Park or BrainForest Block. Haha

Anyway, I officially declare that I am running out of ideas to blog about. There are no more interesting things to write about. My sharp wit no longer has things to criticise or poke fun at...

I tried to blog about eating mushroom prata yesterday. Nothing fun out of it. I tried on losing at mahjong. But nothing funni or out of the ordinary. It was in fact an experience too painful to relieve. I tried to blog about the killer advertisement on Mega Mattress but i was too irritated by it to comment on it.

And i think I noe why. Because The BrainForest of Clementi was the source of all my ideas. Everyday when I travel on the MRT back and forth, I see interesting stuff. When I am in the brainforest itself, I experience some of the most funny and cheebye things that can ever happen
They all become blogstuff. Now that I dun have to go to school, I dun have anything interesting to talk about.

In fact, my postings are getting quite meaningless and boring.

Maybe that is why JK Rowling does not write about things that happen to Harry Potter outside Hogwarts School Terms. Who wants to know if he farted in Privet Drive or if he went clubbing on Ladies' Night

I......

Am.....

Beginning to miss.....

A Pineapple Tart Life

I was wondering if you all like to eat pineapple tarts or not....

Because I love the pineapple tarts. Especially the ones made by RZ's mother. Every new year order from him.

Notice how most of us only look for pineapple tarts during the new year?

I was also wondering if you all like to eat turkey or not...

I dun really like to eat turkey but during christmas i would get to have some lah...

Notice how most of us only eat turkey during Christmas?

Finally I was wondering if you all like mooncakes...

I love them also

But I only look for them during the Mooncake Festival.... I think most of you do. The only person who eat mooncakes all year round is Chang e, the fairy goddess who live on the moon

My life is like a pineapple tart's life. People only look for me when they need help or when they want me to buy something from them

When they wanna sell insurance policies, they come to me.

I got one classmate in jc. He never speaks to me much because he got another click of friends. In fact whenever i talk to him i think he feels irritated to having to speak to me. All i could remember is that he stood as far as possible away from me. That time i first meet him back in brainforest of clementi, he acted as if he was my good friend and knew me very well. He say one day come out for lunch.

I knew it was nothing good. He wanted me to buy insurance and financial planning services from me.

I got one bmt mate. He is life science student in brainforest of clementi like me. When before we enetered, he said he wanted to be my school mate. He often smsed me 'how's life' and all that bullshit. He wanted to sell MLM to me. After i rejected him i never got a call from him ever. Nowadays i see him in school he acted as if he dun noe me. Fuck u understand?

I got two recruits in BMT when I was a sergeant there. Both never contacted me for a long time after they finished their time with me. One day he came onto MSN and tried to chat me up. Before he could say anything, I told him i was penniless and staying at home because no money to spend. Cheebye straightaway the MSN line went dead and silent. So silent I can hear the crow calling below my block.

The other recruit wants to sell me pillows. Whatever. But he was much nicer lah because he till talk to me occasionally on the MSN.

All these idiots, all go fuck yourselves lah. I am doing very well now but dont come pretend abt being friends when u want something. Not especially when you dun wanna contact me at all in the past

I am extremely apologetic abt the language but the more i think of it the more angry i get. I want sincere friends but they dun come by. I am not a pineapple tart. I dun lead the life of one. My ambition was never to become a tasty pineapple tart.

I want to become a tasty red bean bun.

What if....

What if.....

What if you discover that u are not as capable as u thought u were?

What if you realise that your beautiful plan seems to be going to fail?

What if you find out that Christmas is going to be a lonely affair?

What if you can see New Year coming in a non celebratory mood?

What if you know that nobody knows you at all?

What if you know that even your parents dun know you well enough?

What if you are the only person who knows what is going on in your life?

What if all you ever wanted was peace but it will never come?

What if the person you love is not the person who loves you?

What if you are living a big lie but you cannot expose it?

What if you think you are strong but you are actually a cowardice?

What if you are always the kettle calling the pot black?

What if God is in His Heaven?

Liar Liar

Erm, I just discovered a big lie yesterday while playing mahjong with GekL and WL.

Oh yes john, we were playing three player mahjong. And I lost because GekL no money so deliberately lose some money to him. Treat it as a christmas present lah.

Just in case people dun noe, channel U got a programme looking for the next chinese host. The show called 'Superhost'. It is abit like American Idol but look for host not idol lah

Last week, one contestant CX on the show was on the brink of elimination. In order to save herself, CX told a story where she aborted her baby and that was the biggest regret she had. Something like that. Then CX cried in front of national TV to gain sympathy votes.

In the end succeed. She saved herself from elimination. Another girl who never abort any babies was eliminated.

When I heard got this liar in national competition, I thought how come can have this kind of people around? What is the world coming to? And the liar admitted in front of all other contestants during one of training sessions for SUperhost, as if nothing wrong one with telling lies to get what u want, on national TV somemore.

By keeping her in the competition, what kind of image does the media want to portray?? It is okae to tell lies to get what you want?

Lucky not singaporean. I will feel ashamed. Lucky is woman from the world most populous country. Mimi say so typical. There the people dun even queue up to buy buns. There the people do damage to the environment to make themselves rich. Not much morals left in that country. I feel ashamed because i feel sort of related.

Hopefully justice will be served soon.

The thought of having a liar as a potential host in the local channels make me shudder.

A Tribute to Howie (歌颂好一)

I would like to use abit of blog space to write a tribute to Howie. Even if blog space is precious on such a popular blog.

That is because Howie is my good friend. He is a really helpful person

He is closer to me than Fisherman's Friend or Terry Koh

As you all might know, this few days I am up in bandages and stiches because I fell into a very deep drain on Wed night.

I was stiched up and bandaged at a doctor's place. But I couldnt go home myself and the doctor ask me to ask someone to pick me up. My family couldnt come. Only Howie could because he pick up the phone.

He didnt hesitate when i asked him whether he could come or not. Before he came, i keep smsing him all sorts of requests making it very troublesome for him

Me: Howie, come to 0308 to pick me up at 1 pm

Me: Howie, come to 0427 not 0308 so sorrie

Me: Howie, I leave them a phone number they will call u when I am done. Please bring button shirt because i cant wear overhead shirt

I sent him so many sms that I wondered if he find me too troublesome and throw me at the doctor place by myself and dun come

But in the end he came... with the button shirt. *Sob*

When he came, he ran because he thought 1 pm i will be ready and he is late. In the end I was only done at 3pm and he waited about 2 hrs for me. When we met, we talked about happy things and he never complained that i was troublesome *Sob Sob*

He sent me home to my doorstep

Howie thank you very much. You are really a good friend, although i think your english name abit stupid

This is a tribute to Howie (Sing to any tune that u all like)

Howie is a nice boy

Howie is kind at heart

He helps me when I need it.

Without frown or excuses

This is a better world because of him

I feel grateful for such a friend

Howie is a nice boy

Howie is HOW (好)

The Popularisation of SCV

Nowadays everybody has cable TV. I am probably the last carbon based person on Earth to not have cable TV

For awhile, I was thinking why the hell would people pay extra money to watch other country shows. Already got mediacorp shows. Somemore is free one okae? Cable so expensive still got people waste money

But now I know why. After exams, I sit down properly and watch alot of shows, both variety and drama. And I became enlightened TV buddha after the shows

Channel 8 is bad bad and bad. Channel U, after returning to MediaCorp, go down slope. Singapore not many slopes but Channel U still manage to go down one. Not bad

The slogan for channel U is leading Asia's trend (带动亚洲流行) Whoever thought of this slogan must be joking. Either that or he is self delusional. How can a channel that show old episodes of variety shows known as leading Asia's trend. Taiwanese popular show 'Mr Con and Miss Csi' was going on for so long and only recently Channel U then bring in the show. Where got lead? Lead the backside arh??

Another popular show 'Variety Big Brother' by Zhang Fei is way behind in the latest episodes. And the most up to date one, ' Guess' by Jacky Wu, they have to cut the interesting parts to fit into one hour. Channel U is really getting from bad to worse.

Why the hell Superfunkies is still not yanked from the primetime slot when it is hosted by such mediocore hosts. Who the hell is watching anyway besides those fans at the live recording?

The only show that I liked is Shoot on every Wed because it is the only show that has Quan Yifeng. And please dun get me started on Superhost. It is so yesteryear. Why have another competition where no one is really interested.... except yuneng maybe.

Channel 8 no need to say liao. Always got some Qianlong or Kangxi (qing dynasty historical show) show on u noe. Either that or some boliao Korean Drama or Movie. The most Boliao is Tong Xin Yuan (Portrait of Home) Seriously, Holland Villiage was good. Double happiness was blindly done. Portrait of Home I think it is done by Xiaoming one, my amateur TV producer neighbour

Sometimes I see the shows on Channel eight really want to push me to scold bad words in front of my family. Lucky havent yet.

Channel 5 is sometimes okae sometimes bad. They as usual show all the good show at 3am in the morning. Then bad ones like fear factor and dun noe what Biggest loser they show primetime. Their sense of timing really better that the spoilt clock in my house. And the king of all the ultimate cheesy shows, Lifeline by Gurmit Singh and Co. Seriously, can the lines be more cheesy than Pizza Hut pizza which have three types of cheese. Can they be more corny than the man who stand in the corner of the room eating corn. The answer is yes

The only good thing is Harry potter movies or Spiderman movies or X man movies which are blockbusters of the YEAR. Plus the good shows at 3 am. If you are an owl of course. That or the horny cat calling every night at my block downstairs.

No wonder SCV so popular. National Geographic the channel more interesting than any of our Channels

Enough said. Those who dun agree stop breathing for the rest of your life.Those who want to say they like Lifeline talk to my hand. Or you can talk to my butt lah. No difference
