Damn It!

Well, as everyone out there know, I was terribly bored with absolute no idea how to amuse myself yesterday. So I decided to grab myself a pack of chips in the kitchen cabinet. Usually, I was careful and alert before going to the kitchen or doing any opening of the cabinets. But, because of the extreme boredom, I had put aside those feelings and walk with my head down.

I extended my hand to open the cabinet and poof, on my left temple, it landed, its claws slightly pressed against my skin. I jumped up and screamed in shocked and ticklish. That damn thing, how dare, 'it' jumped onto me. Look at 'it'. I wish I could have been fast enough to squish 'it'. Eewww..

Twist & Shout

My boredom have got the better of me. I'm really bored up to my neck, even my left brain isnt functioning that well..harhar

I thought to myself, must find something to amuse me or entertaining to 'wake me up'. But nothing seems to work. But then I spotted this tongue twisters. I tried it out just for the sake of finding cure for my boredom. Guess what... now it makes me agitated!

Here are some of the tongue twisters that 'provoked' my emotion. Try saying them as fast as you can!

She sells seashells by the sea shore.

The shells she sells are surely seashells.

So if she sells seashells by the sea shore,I'm sure she sells sea shore shells.

If two witches would watch two watches,

which witch would watch which watch?

Big black bugs bleed blue black blood

but baby black bugs bleed blue blood.

Can't get enough? According to Wikipedia, the following is supposedly the hardest tongue twister in the English language.

The sixth sick sheikh's sixth sheep's sick

so six slick sheiks sold six sick sheep six silk sheets.

You can go unravel yourself now; if you're still up for the challenge and wanna try out your patient (or punishment, depending on your nature) then you can try this out!
I quit!!

Fork & Spoon

Never say 'spoon & fork' say it 'fork & spoon'.
In Singapore you should never say 'spoon and fork' or 'knife and fork'. Singaporeans are very ordered and tidy people and they like to put everything in alphabetical order as much as possible. They like it ryhme when its as good as they hear it.

Thus, spoon and fork becomes 'fork and spoon' and a knife and fork is a 'fork and knife'. That’s one theory. Another explanation is that these colloquialisms are a joke left over from Singapore’s colonial days. In the 1920s some British soldiers and other pompous foreign grits couldn’t or wouldn’t get used to the idea of using chopsticks and a ceramic spoon. So, if offered these utensils at a kopitiam ( Coffeeshop ) they would shout 'bring me a fucking 'knife and fork'. All this is because the etiquette of dining usually have two spoons, two forks and a knife.

Now despite being multilingual, most Singaporeans have little or no knowledge of Anglo Saxon. So they would not know anything about this expletive beginning with the letter ‘F’ ( fucking ) or the use of it. This usually meant that a screaming customer ended up with a knife and two forks. "A fork and knife and a fork" you got wat i mean?.

After a short while, or it may have been years, the puzzled Singaporean waiters and other serving staff got used to the idea that actually only one of these two forks was ever used or required. So they started to bring just a fork and a knife whenever they were asked either for a "knife and fork" or a "fork & knife and fork". Why dont they just say it " Gimme two forks and that fucking knife and please...hurry up!!"

There is no evidence that anyone was ever asked to fetch a fork & spoon and fork. The phrase “fork and spoon” just got adopted by analogy. Out of these two theories, I know the second one to be the most likely explanation. It was told to me by a Bavarian bodybuilder taking a break at a beer bar in Boat Quay. He had heard the story directly from a minor Singaporean mountain climber. And he was sure it was true. Therefore it is.

Anyway...we are just too carried away by the colonised's ideology.

You're Beautiful

I had promised my little Princess that she could have her ears pierced. Although I prefer to 'preserve' her natural child beauty till she reach puberty. But she's been nagging me the whole weekend, I had no choice but succumb to her wishes...hmmm kids

Well, I brought her to a jewellery shop to get the piercing done. And here's the result.
