Experiment with PS effects

I was so traumatized by the Lemmi's incident that I can't sleep... So I end up fooling around with some photoshop effects. Do feel free to drop me any comments. :D

Almost a murderer...

I was almost a murderer.

Lemmiwinks struggled to keep herself alive just awhile ago...

OK... I nearly drowned her... Maybe I shouldn't have tried to clean her with a wet towel. Then she wouldn't have panicked and jump off my hands into the tub full of water.

It was totally chaotic! She was squeaking and her body was overturned, about 3/4 submerged into the water. To save her, I have to spill the water onto the floor. Then I picked her up with something from my laundry (it was an emergency, remember?). I know how hamsters hate being blow dry with a hair dryer. They will always struggle to avoid the to torturous heat and I'm really guilty that I caused poor Lemmiwinks to go through that agonizing process and also the mental distress caused by the whole accident.

The aftermath was messy. The water spread all over the floor of my room. As a result, I have to pick up my partially wet clothes, soak up the water, mop my room and wash lots of rugs/towels. It's sure tedious! But it's worth it. At least Lemmi is still alive and kicking, running actively on her little wheel. I really pray hard that she'll be alright and not fall sick tomorrow. *Fingers crossed*

What a fantabulous weekend!

A fantastic weekend is enough to drive all your Monday Blues away... anytime!

FRIDAY
After much anticipation, Ministry of Sound has finally set foot in our sunny little island! The invasion was massive... On the opening night, the Choppies and I actually waited for about 3 hours to get to the front of the queue. The wait was almost in vain 'cause the door bitch was telling us that the club was "Full House". So they will only let the public in when some of the invited guests (those with invites) leave.

But we were lucky, cause we bumped into Yvonne, whose friend got us all invites for the entry! That really save us from having a disastrous evening... Many thanks to our lucky stars, Yvonne and Eugene...

I think Zouk is really gonna face some big time competition. M.O.S. is so much more spacious, has nicer deco, more competitive cover charge, and in my opinion, has a nicer mix of music. They also seperated the genres of music into different rooms. So now, the Choppies don't have to sulk, cos there's something for everyone! Hooray to that!!!

SATURDAY
Saturday was pretty relax. I did crystal tattoo at this block party thingy at West Coast. After that, I met up with Cheryl and Joey to chill out. We did something we haven't done for ages: bowling. Our skills are atrocious! None of our total score actually exceed 100. But nonetheless, we enjoyed ourselves! I think Joey and Cheryl are such an adorable couple. It's funny how 2 individuals of different worlds come together and perhaps it's their differences that kept them close. Like what my bro describes, it's The Romance of the Goth-Boy and the Happy-go-lucky-Girl. Spot the difference?

SUNDAY
Finally I managed to get out of my regime of sleeping late on Sunday mornings! My bro and me went to Wild Wild Wet.

It was so crowded. Well, blame it on the school holidays. Damn it. As always, it takes a long time to queue for each slide and we got fed up after awhile. Plus all those people and their fawked-up attitude (kiasu-ism, queue-cutting skills and other socially disguisting behaviours) are not making things any better. So we kept hanging out in the Lazy River and the Wave Pool cause there's no need to queue for our turn.

The water really has some great therapeutic effects on me. When the water carasses your body, it's like a subtle massage, easing the tense muscles, making me forget about all the vexation I had throughout the week. My bro and I like it so much, we were thinking of getting the yearly pass so that we can go more often. But It's really not cheap. *Bawls*

Award winning Joke

My friend emailed me this. I thought it was kinda lame. Well, I hope it humoured you...

*****

AWARD WINNING JOKE

Chinese walks into a bar in America late one night and he saw Steven
Spielberg. As he was a great fan of his movies, he rushes over to him,
and asks for his autograph.
Instead, Spielberg gives him a slap and says, "You Chinese people bombed
our Pearl Habour, get outta here."
The astonished Chinese man replied, "It was not the Chinese who bombed
your Pearl Harbour, it was the Japanese".
"Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese, you're all the same," replied Spielberg.
In return, the Chinese gives Spielberg a slap and says, "You sank the
Titanic, my forefathers were on that ship."
Shocked, Spielberg replies, "It was the iceberg that sank the ship, not
me."
The Chinese replies, "Iceberg, Spielberg, Carlsberg, you're all the
same."

This particular joke won an award for the best joke in a competition
organized in Britain and this joke was sent by an Indian.

Well, inevitably, discrimination happens in every society. Personally, I feel that every single one of us are guilty of habouring prejudice at some point in time.

For example: I really detest English-speaking Chinese(read SINGAPOREANS) who proudly proclaims that they really suck at their Mandarin usage. Afterwhich, delibrately attempt to speak a few words in their broken Mandarin and chuckle away. I mean, come on, if their Mandarin is as sucky as how they put it, why try to embarass themselves? As a result, making a mockery out of the language and an absolute fool of themselves. It's already bad enough that they don't have sufficient understanding of their own mother tongue. Why emplify your shortcoming? *Shrugs*

A friend was talking to me about racism over dinner just now. He was kinda put away by the * race. So much so that he started stigmatizing their common religion and scruntizing facts and reports to prove his point. I feel that it is really unfair to be judging and stereotyping a certain race based on some notorious behaviour from the black sheeps of the community. I could say that I am not exactly a racist. But I dislike certain people of certain races because I detest their behaviour, and not their race or religion. I hope my dear friend Q will learn how to draw the line between personal prejudice and racism. You'll never know. You might have to work under a * race superior in future. Ha ha,,, And what if the society rejects the un-beautiful like you and me?

Better equip yourself with armour before we get stoned!

She has gotten my attention!

My confession:
I think this is superficially the prettiest Singaporean I have ever ever came across.



In case you got me wrong, I seriously think this girl is some major eye-candy. And considering the fact that she actually graduated from RJC, I bet she's no bimbo. I mean, who can resist looking at someone so beautiful? My colleague told me that there's speculations about her beauty being artificial. But what the heck. She's still hell of a babe. Yeah! Haha!
