worldly affairs

Ok. So it's been a bad weekend. I'm pmsing and moody cos Novak lost to Federer. No. Not lost. He retired from the match with a sore throat apparently. Imagine my disappointment. What a way to go. No wonder I feel less than inspired over the weekend. (yea right. i'm sorry nole.) You know I bloody hate that A**P*t M**. So I've decided to make myself feel better by looking at how much worse off some other parts of the world is.

Since my previous post was about saving the world.. I shall continue with that campaign cos' the following video has been rotting in the drafts since global warming. Right. It's a video against animal testing. Though that doesn't stop me from eating meat. I like to believe that they are ethically slaughtered. I'll perhaps only turn vegetarian if that's a job prerequisite to be a zoo keeper. (I tried applying for it to join my animal friends) Oh yea, in effort to channel out the rage in me, I've decided I'd rather face animals than people. HAHAHA.. But I still refuse to eat sharks' fins. Check back 2 weeks later for an updated resolution.

Here goes:



Yep. So Mars and Sneakers are bad, apparently so. Boycott them. Eat Cadbury. Wouldn't it be nice?


Ooooh.. And if you're as angry as me, or troubled or stressed or feel suicidal, I find it therapeutic to read some sadistic news. Not that I'm a sadist... It's more like "Hello... there are ppl out there in a crazier world, so get a grip already" See, all of us need a reminder every now and then.

Not sure if you've read about the news about this Austrian who held his daughter captive for 24 years (hell, before I was even born) in a cellar beneath the house and his wife didn't even notice. The worse part of this drama is she bore him 7 kids after he raped her on many occasions. Imagine how weird and twisted it must be to have the father and grandfather to be the same man... It's "Flowers in the Attic" in real life. Incest in the sickest way possible. See how twisted parts of the world has become. What other controversial news can attract the media like honey to the bees? We all delight in some of the strange, perverse and gossip ourselves. Perhaps I'm not as insane as I imagined myself to be (with my likes for thrillers and gory movies).

Read the news report here.

Well, that's the latest news that has caught my eye... aside from the PIE 6-lane traffic jam, that poor 60-something cancer surviving auntie that got ran over by a taxi... etc, etc. No wonder some people don't read newspapers (other than the fact that they are lazy, like me). It can get downright depressing sometimes. To quote Edward Norton in Death to Smoochy 'You can't change the world but you can make a dent.'

What that means I don't quite know. so... save the trees.

P/S: Find Robert Langdon (he may be able to help decode dissociative writing).

P/P/S: Velcome Badot back to the world where babis dwell. Vajivavudh, ve shall anticipate Baapok's bbq and eat like dogs. And Happy 'one-day-in-advance' Birthday, Ah Bang!

P/P/P/S: New song for new hope. If you find the song familiar, you've heard it from 'Extraordinary People', the documentary about Singaporeans you've watched the last decade. And boy aren't you old. HAHA.
