Cause and effect

Premise:

I watched Warlords. It was depressing. So many pointless deaths. In the end all was for naught.

I watched Nanking. If anyone was capable of more pointless deaths then the Chinese in Warlords, then it was the Japanese in Nanking. It irks me that to this day, some Japanese are still unwilling to admit to the atrocities committed in WWII and believe that the rape of Nanking was exaggeration. The later generation should not live for the sins of their fathers, but sadly things are never that simple.

Conclusion:

I watch way too many depressing shows. I should watch something happy and psychedelic.

Premise:

Girls with long legs like to wear really really really (did I mention really?) short pants.

Something about seeing a girl wearing polo tee with the cullar turned up, mini-skirt and a cap, with the hair tied back, turns me on. Hmmm....

Conclusion:

I girl-watch too much. Bah. Life's short. Live for pleasure.

Premise:

I searched the whole of Vivo city + Harbourfront center but could not find a Santa hat.

Conclusion:

Santa hats are really popular and have been sold out months ago. Cause I never saw any shop selling them.

Amazing voice

This guy has a nice voice X2

Guys vs Gals

Was talking with a female friend and we happened to start talking about the fashion sense of a particular girl.

The girl in question was wearing a black dress that came up to slightly about mid-thigh, with boots that came to just below her knee.

Female friend asked me what was wrong with that outfit.

"Well, if she's wearing boots, then the whole point would be to show off her legs. If she's wearing such a long dress, it'll cover up her legs. Ergo, point of wearing boots will be defeated. She should either wear a mini-skirt or hot pants"

Female friend says, "That's almost correct. But it's due to the height of her boots, not the length of her dress. She should wear shorter boots."

Interesting how a guy would want a shorter hemline, while a girl would aim to have shorter boots, and yet both want to see more leg...

Maybe there is hope after all

Randomness

A: So who do you think is more clever? L or Light?

Me: I think L has better hair.

GAH! I never realized what a bimbo I am. In fairness we were talking about how I wanted hair like L.

Note: L and Light are characters in the popular anime and manga series Death Note.



Is it me, or are girls wearing lighter and lighter colored tees that are getting thinner and thinner, while at the same time wearing darker and darker bras?

Ice - Cool Cranberry



Sometimes I wonder if I'm really ignorant or are those producers really trying to be slippery about things.

Case in point - Ice-Cool Cranberry juice.

Point A - It's 100% juice! I admit, I didn't read the fine print. 100% juice screams to me that it's squeezed juice. Only reading the words "from concentrate" did I realize my mistake.

Point B - High fiber! Errr since when can you get fiber from juice? If I knew that, I would have packed a lot more cranberry juice during my Army days to prevent constipation.

Point C - with Grape Juice. I THOUGHT I WAS BUYING CRANBERRY JUICE! Why is the grape juice added in like an after thought? Why is it not "Ice-Cool Cranberry AND Grape juice"?

Crazy Sunday filled with fun.

Beach volleyball was a blast as usual. Think I'm finally getting slightly better. Maybe the new shades helped. :P

But I guess the highlight of the day was a floorball session. It was going to be my first time playing and I guess I was rather looking forward to it. A totally new game to play! Yay~!

I ended up, whacked on the knuckles by a stick, kicked in the quadriceps by someone, and stepped on my big right toe which reopened a new wound.

Pasir Ris to Boon Lay

Guess that for a blog entitled Life on One Wheel, I haven't really shown my life on one wheel. Guess that means I need to get off my sorry arse to blog about unicycling once in a while. It's not that unicycling is not fun, just that I tend to be too tired to blog about what I did after I have completed it.

Case in point: Pasir Ris to Boon Lay, an overnight ride I just completed this morning. We started at Pasir Ris MRT and set off at about 10.30pm. Cue crazed pedalling and madcap cycling, we managed to reach Boon Lay at 5am in the morning. Surprisingly, under then feeling extremely sleepy, I haven't really felt any ill effects of said ride. Total distance travelled > about 37 km.

Shouts out to JH, that crazy bitch actually did it on a 20" unicycle.

Yes, you are fine around others. Fine. But you wish you could have just a *little* more alone time. Okay, well, a lot more alone time. In fact, you'd be happier if you didn't have to go out nearly as much. You get along very well with the period, who tries mightily to take up as much of the load as he can. But fools will not listen. You want to scream, "Cut it out, for the love of Safire!"

But, all of that notwithstanding, you do your duty. And, if sometimes you feel like a Chicago street hooker, you also remember that you really do have an important role to play. Your soul remains pure. Hold your head high!

Hairspray



At it's heart, Hairspray is truly a feel good movie. Set in the 1960s, it's a musical that gets your feet tapping and your body grooving. I mean, seriously, who can resist good old 60's music (heres looking at your emo-punks, death metalists and hip-hoppers).

Portraying the fight of a young, short and rather stout girl, as she fights to dance in on a TV show, while at the same time championing the rights of African Americans. She eventually wins the day and gets her man. (Honestly, don't most stories end like that anyway?) Thus, at heart it's a feel good movie about a girl, rising against all odds to save the day.

But looking deeper and you realize that it was more then that. It was about not being afraid to be different. It was about daring to stand up for your rights as a human being. It was about equality among men and women.

Even then you could see some of the differences in thinking about then and now. In one scene, they were protesting against segregation and they held up ply-boards that read "Integration not segregation" and "TV is black and white".

I would like to point to the phrase "TV is black and white". I mean even the African Americans then were calling themselves black. They were in fact promoting the segregation by stating quite clearly that there is a difference. Compare this with the current situation, where people are increasingly working towards being color blind. We are Singaporeans. Not Chinese, Malay or Indian. In America, they are Americans, not black, whites or yellow. Even this segregation along international lines might be blurred in the future with the increasingly globalization of the planet.

Irrelevant aside:

Friend A : Why did they have to have John Travolta in there?!

Me : Probably to have a throw back to his days in Saturday Night Fever and the disco era

Friend A : Well, yah. But did he have to be that fat?!

Me : Well someone had to pass the genes to the daughter. The dad was too thin for that.

Friend A : Ok, I give you that, but why couldn't he have been cast as the father?!

Me : ...

Irrelevance 101

I was drinking 100 Plus after a particularly strenuous session of unicycle hockey when I burped.

It wasn't one of those long and satisfying burps, but rather one that was punctuated with numerous short (for lack of a better word), silence.

And then I realized that it sounded like the the mechanical sounds that Transformers make when they transform!

Darwin's Nightmare



Darwin's Nightmare is a documentary. And like all documentaries, it is out to shock and educated the viewers on a certain issue. The issue in this case is on the introduction of the Nile Perch into Lake Victoria, Tanzania. The title refers to how the Nile Perch then raised to the top of the ecological food chain in the lake, causing it to become an ecological wasteland.

The issue being discussed is an important one. It opened my eyes to the many effects, both direct and indirect that was caused by the Nile Perch. However, this is where the documentary goes off the boil. Simply put, it travelled in every direction possible from there. There wasn't a focus to it. Compare this with "An Inconvenient Truth" which talks about global warming and "Born into Brothels" which focused on the situation in the red light district of Culcutta.

This documentary went on to explore issues such as the influx of European nations which wanted the highly prized fish but also at the same time bringing in weapons to increase their profits. It shows the poverty of the fishermen of the lake and how the survive on fish bones and heads while the good meat is exported. It shows the homeless kids having to make their own living and turning to drugs to get by. It was just trying to do too much at one time.

I loved the issues it raise and how it opened my eyes to it, but yet at the same time was underwhelmed by the many issues raised, unable to get a clear connection with each problem, before I was thrown into the next before being pulled back.

Grindhouse: Deathproof




Grindhouse
: Deathproof is supposed to be part of a two parter in a the movie Grindhouse. The Singapore censorship board (those bloody w*nkers) saw fit to only release Deathproof without showing the other part, Planet Terror, concurrently. The premise itself was supposed to be very interesting, with the two films separated by fake trailers for fake movies. But alas the effect was to be spoilt by this cruel decision.

Deathproof happens to be the part directed by Quentin Tarantino and I guess you have to be a fan of his movies to appreciate this one. Make no mistake about it, this is a fun movie. Don't come looking at this for the plot which was basically non-existant, but rather for the sheer fun-ness of it.

This movie follows a crazy driver named, Stuntman Mike, who has some serious issued with beautiful women. He drives around in his "deathproof" muscle car, killing women. The first part traces how he did it and I must say the murder method was pretty ingenious to allow him to get away relatively scott free.

The second part occurs when he tries to kill another group of women but they fight back. Themes of female empowerment are thrown in for good measure.

The best part of the movie was probably the ending scene, which had the theather in stitches.

All in all, this was a superb movie, full of action for the tetestrone filled guy.

Hardest Riddle in the World

I turn polar bears white
and I will make you cry.
I make guys have to pee
and girls comb their hair.
I make celebrities look stupid
and normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown
and make your champane bubble.
If you sqeeze me, I'll pop.
If you look at me, you'll pop.
Can you guess the riddle?

97% of Harvard graduates can not figure this riddle out, but 84% of kindergarten students were able to figure this out in 6 minutes or less.
Can you guess the riddle?


There are actually a few answers to this, and I'm not too sure which one is correct, so here goes (highlight to read)

Answer 1: No. This refers to the last line, i.e. "Can you answer the riddle?" To which the answer is no since the riddle doesn't make much sense. Also, it would tie in with the supposed statistic of 97% of Harvard Grads not being able to answer but 84% of kindergarten students being able to

Answer 2: Time.
Based on this poem(?)

The time has come,
winter is here
and those yellow bears disapear.
(...I turn polar bears white )

The time has past
as man looks back with a sigh
and a tear in his eye.
(...and I will make you cry.)

As time is held
boys cross their legs
but of course the toilet begs
(...I make guys have to pee)

As time marches on
Girls loose their blush
and swap a comb for their brush
(...and girls comb their hair.)

As time passes
For those held high
their end is nigh
(...I make celebrities look stupid )

As time catches up
Everyone is equal
when we get to the final sequal
(...and normal people look like celebrities.)

As time turns
Without it we have flour and water
With it we have breakfast for my daughter
(...I turn pancakes brown )

As time revolves
How does one turn water and wine
into something so fine
)...and make your champane bubble.)

As time runs out
The more in a minute you try and squeeze
the less you can do with ease.
(...If you sqeeze me, I'll pop. )

As time ticks
All the time that has past
man cannot comprehand something so vast.
(...If you look at me, you'll pop. )

This is a beautiful answer and poetic.

Answer 3
Pressure

Polar bears are white because the pressure at the poles is low, so they have to be able to absorb heat.

Pressure makes you cry if it's too much.

Pressure in your bladder makes you have to pee.

Peer pressure makes girls comb their hair...Otherwise we wouldn't bother!

Celebrities usually crack under pressure.

Many normal people will shine under pressure.

Pancakes turn brown thanks to pressure generated by the heat.

Champagne will bubble until the pressure of the carbonation has disappeared.

If you squeeze something under pressure, BAM, there it goes.

If you are 'looking' at pressure, you're in it, like in an airplane, and your ears pop.

The so called scientific answer.


So which one do you think is the best answer?

We almost won it 6 times in Athens

23/05/2007

Athens

The stage was set for an epic battle between 2 teams. My beloved Liverpool, against the Italians in the form of AC Milan.

I had already prepared for this day by taking the morning off from work the next day. I was prepared to get up in the morning to watch this match, planning not to shout too loudly in case I woke my parents like the last CL final.

Alas, how the best laid plans can still go wrong.

At 10 plus, I received an MSN message from a friend asking me to go to Hard Rock Cafe to watch the match with, well other Liverpool fans. It took a bit of persuasion, but at 12.30 am, I found myself outside Hard Rock Cafe, waiting in line with a bunch of other Liverpool fans, all decked in the colors of Liverpool.

When the doors finally opened to admit a red tidal wave, the place was filled to standing room only in an instant. Such was the excitement in place.

I had never been able to sing a rendition of You'll Never Walk Alone, so imagine my delight when a great round was belted out at the start of the match. Everyone raising their fist and singing their hearts out. It was a great atmosphere. Everyone was excited.

The match started and Liverpool were playing well. We were pressing them all over the pitch, forcing them to make errors, but alas, things were not to be as Pipo Inzaghi managed to deflect a free kick in.

We were visibly disappointed during the interval, but were still quietly optimistic. We had come back from 3-0 down. What's 1-0?

Alas, the best laid plans do still fall to pieces.

Try as the Redmen might, but we could not get the luck that we had needed. Lady luck had turned her back after Istanbul 2005.

But we were proud and we stood tall and we showed grace and dignity in defeat. Another rendition of You'll Never Walk Alone was belted out with gusto.

How apt the name of the song. Win or lose, you Redmen will never walk alone.

Rosenior out after '10 minutes'



Leroy Rosenior has broken the record for English football's shortest managerial reign.

BBC Five Live understands Rosenior lost his job at Torquay just 10 minutes after being introduced as the Devon club's new manager on Thursday.

Chairman Mike Bateson called him to say he had just sold the club to a group led by Colin Lee, who then reinstated himself as director of football.

Lee had only been made redundant last Monday.

Rosenior, 43, was given the head coach position at Plainmoor when Keith Curle's short-term contract expired.

Bateson told Rosenior that he did not know Lee's bid for the club was imminent when he appointed him.

It would have been the former Brentford boss's second stint in charge at Torquay.

The previous shortest tenure in charge in English football was Dave Bassett's four-day reign at Crystal Palace in 1984.

From BBC Sports

This must go down as one of the biggest jokes in football. In charge for a whole 10 mins. Wow.

The Wind That Shakes The Barley



Sometimes, you wonder where they come up with the names for movies? From some imaginary land where they just pluck letters out of a hat and then plop them all together?

Names like "THe wind that shakes the barley" comes to mind.

But making fun of such a name would probably do a disservice to the movie. (In case you're wondering, the name comes from a haunting song sung at a funeral)

This movie is set in the backdrop of the 1920s when Ireland is coming to grips with the brutal mastery enforced by the English Empire. When things go abit too far, and people die because of the iron hand that is gripping the Irish Republic, people turn sour and rebellious.

When a man is killed for speaking Irish and refusing to speak English as demanded by some English soldiers, a doctor is persuaded to join the Irish Republic Army (IRA) to fight for the freedom of the people.

Things are rosy for a while before things turn sour. Ireland is to be granted freedom, of a sort. They get to make their own policies, have their own army, but ultimately, they have to bow down to the English Empire once again and swear fealty to the King of England.

This rips the rebellion apart as father fights against son and brother against brother as different viewpoints threaten to tear the country apart. Atrocities are commited, brother orders the excecution of his own brother. Tears are shed.

This movie has terrific acting from the young and English cast and they got the Irish accent down pat, to the extent that I didn't understand about 30% of what they were saying, even though it was in English. I was really wishing for subtitles at a certain point in time.

The movie was also interesting to me as it brought to me attention a little part of history that I am not particularly familiar with and gives me a better insight to the aims of the IRA. I don't condone them, but I think I can see what they are trying to fight for.

Also it raises interesting questions. How much freedom is there? How much is it worth? Is an illusion of freedom better then no freedom? Is there such a thing as taking things slowly on the way to freedom?

Summer Palace (Yi He Yuan)



This movie was one serious badass emo movie. It was also a movie I went to watch without having an idea of the plot or what it was about, since my first choice movie had already sold out.

Summer Palace is billed as "the most controversial movie from China" and I can see why. Set in the backdrop of the Tiananmen massacre, it liberally used images and footages taken from that period. You can see why the Chinese government basically banned Lou Ye (the director) from making movies for a 5 year period. All copies of this movies is supposed to be destroyed as well.

Also, it is very liberal in nature, showing the going on in the Beijing University at that period of time. And guess what young adolescent students do in their free time? They go at it like rabbits in heat.

But this movie isn't just about controversy, it's about the life of a young women, trying to find her way in life, to find someone for her. It traces a 2 1/2 hour torturous, winding and emo route of how she didn't get together with a guy. It showcases her thoughts, her feelings as she wrestles with her love life. She flits from one guy to another, always having sex, and yet always thinking of that one guy she doesn't want to be with.

This movie was interesting, and you could probably go on to analyze the relationships between all the characters for hours, but at the end of the day, when you see that she got married and yet still thinks about the guy and yet doesn't want to be with him, you can't help but feel sorry for her.

Daily anecdote

A Korean acquaintance asked me, "Are you local?"

That surprised me a bit, so I asked her, "So where do you think I'm from then?"

She thought about it for a while before replying, "Ok. You look local."

Slow Dance

Have you ever watched kids on a merry-go-round,
or listened to rain slapping the ground?

Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight,
or gazed at the sun fading into the night?

You better slow down, don't dance so fast,
time is short, the music won't last.

Do you run through each day on the fly,
when you ask "How are you?", do you hear the reply?

When the day is done, do you lie in your bed,
with the next hundred chores running through your head?

You better slow down, don't dance so fast,
time is short, the music won't last.

Ever told your child, we'll do it tomorrow,
and in your haste, not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch, let a friendship die,
'cause you never had time to call and say hi?

You better slow down, don't dance so fast,
time is short, the music won't last.

When you run so fast to get somewhere,
you miss half the fun of getting there.

When you worry and hurry through your day,
it's like an unopened gift thrown away.

Life isn't a race, so take it slower,
hear the music before your song is over.

Tired is when

you swim 1.8km and then go for a 3 hour plus bouldering session.

It's been years since I last did rock climbing, the last time probably being in secondary school. I had a blast this time as I think I am slightly fitter this time round and could manage to have more strength to last longer throughout.

You don't really feel tired during the whole session as you're running quite a bit on adrenalin, but after the whole thing, I realized I was aching in places I didn't even realize existed.

Another thing that I learnt: Don't lean against a rock wall, it hurts.
