Hey Singapore, yeo-ah yeo!

Singapore National Day coming right up! So let's do the patriotic thing and support local movies! Go see Royston Tan's new movie 881, which I think is going to be hilarious!
"881"- Sounds like Papaya in English - The movie is about a Getai two sisters act who called themselves the Papaya Sisters. Glitzy, Hokkien, & Fun!
See movie trailer at below link. The last part of the trailer, where people en masse chanted in hokkien "881 yeo-ah, yeo-ah, yeo-ah, yeo", gave me massive goosebumps. Shiok.

See you there!

Watch it!

Oh how I love the Simpsons!

It's also funny how the cinema audience laughed together, and abruptly, simultaneously stopped in 1.5 seconds. Controlled amusement, otherwise you'll miss out the next line.

Real star of the show is...c'mon everyone let's sing along now...

SPIDER PIG
SPIDER PIG
Does whatever a SPIDER PIG does
Can he swing
From a web
No he can't
He's a pig
LOOK OOOUUUTTT!!!!
He's a SPIDER PIG!!

Yah, without Spider Pig and his crap, there would be no show.

I beat the Ah Peks


I bought a pair of very comfy Volcom Jamiaca style beach shorts a few weeks ago.
Of course, even a simple pair of beach shorts constitutes fashion, and it’s all about image projection right?

After dinner, I asked the Mother if my shorts are very much like Ah Pek/DOM PJs. It’s the print, very 70s Ah Pek style, I fear.

My mom nonchalantly replied, “No lah, Ah Peks where got wear such short shorts to sleep?” WL, I’m more indecent than DOMs in the eyes of the parent.
