Eye-Opening

Hey peeps! I have not blogged for a while (not sure if anyone even reads but whatever) so I'll talk about what has been happening in my life these past few days.

I have been trying to keep fit, so in some mornings the past couple of weeks, I have been playing badminton with my peeps, Indra and Shamir. Shamir was really good as we kept having the same points after each round. Haha! It was always deuces in the end, which got Indra, I don't know, jealous? Haha! Not really jealous but just feeling wierd that he could not achieve that kind of performance whenever he plays against either of us. Anyway, it was a great workout and I get to run and smack so it was cool. Haha!

Today, I got a chance to meet some Thai Archie fans! It was an awesome outing! This is like the first time I met an Archie face-to-face, especially an overseas one so that was pretty cool. I got to meet another 2 Singapore Archies too.

One of them, Larissa just shared her experiences about her meetings with David, so it was a pleasant afternoon. The other one was a Secondary 2 boy named Raihan who was kind of shy. Haha! But he kept smiling and laughing when we joked around, so we were happy together. Haha! Ok I'm not making sense here but..never mind moving on.

We took some pictures and just laughed some more. Haha! Pictures might be uploaded soon. :)

Lastly, a wierd dream I had. Ok first of all let me just say this does not happen to me often but this was one of a kind. So here we go..

I was in my room, chatting with a friend who came over (I guess, I'm not sure. I just remembered chatting with someone). Then, for some reason, I decided to leave the room for a while, perhaps to get a drink.

To my surprise, David Archuleta was singing Crush in my living room as he was strumming his guitar. There were also some screaming girls nearby. He was sitting on my sofa, singing with full of emotion as reflected on his face. I think at this point, I blamed my mum for not telling me David was in the house. MY house. But she just kept silent. Haha!

After he finished singing, he went up to me. I asked him how was Singapore (of all questions. Haha!). He said it was cool but still had others part of Asia to tour so he was excited and smiled at me.

Then I woke up, freaked out and pondered to myself. Did that really happen?

Gosh, it's next week! Eek! :D

Anyway, until here then. Bye! Nash out!

Towards The End

We are towards the last few pages of the book. Chapter 3 is about Fun and Games so I'll just pick the interesting things in there. Haha!

Scoring your answers:

IF YOU ANSWERED MOSTLY C, start growing out your bangs now. You'll want them to conceal the horns that will be sprouting soon.

IF YOU ANSWERED MOSTLY B, you're a normal, average person. But in spite of that, you're good.

IF YOU ANSWERED MOSTLY A, you're so good that you're practically an angel. Either that or you're a big phony and a huge liar, and that makes you the most evil of all.

Deep down, we're all exactly alike. Except for the chicken, which you might remember is a huge jerk. We're all alike except for the huge jerks.

Congratulations!

You are now officially ready to Have a Life!

Take good care of it, and don't tell the idiots you have one or they'll want to get their grimy paws all over it.

Here are a few nuggets of wisdom to take with you as you go.

Chapter 4: One order of nuggets to go.

You can't have your cake and eat it too. But you can have your cake and eat someone else's cake too, and that's kind of better anyway.

Exercise hard. Eat right. Die anyway.

If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. Unless it's about somebody who can't hear you.

Never be ashamed of your mood swings. I mean, who doesn't love swings?

The voices in your head are not real, but they still have some really great ideas.

And finally, always remember: You can choose your friends, but you can't choose your family. But you can choose the insane asylum where you have them all put away.

Everything will be just fine! Yeah Right.

Hope you enjoyed the short but insightful chapters of the book. Haha! At least I did anyway. Until here then! Bye! Nash out! :D

More Rabbit Wisdom

Here's Chapter 2. :D

Fables teach valuable lessons, like let Grandma get her own basket of goodies. Read this one, and see how much smarter it makes you.

Chapter 2: The Fable of the Excellent Bunny

Once there was this excellently perfect bunny (like you). The bunny always did perfectly excellent things.

One day the bunny met this chicken who was a huge jerk.

And this chicken always did mean horrible things.

The excellent bunny wanted to make friends with the jerk chicken. But as you know, there's no talking to jerks like that.

So the bunny let his friend, Mr Bear, eat the chicken.

And then everything was great!

Moral: All problems can be solved by letting a bear eat them

Quiz Time!

Let's see if you truly understand the moral of the story.

After I read "The Fable of the Excellent Bunny" I felt:

A) The need to acquire a bear.
B) Alarm over the number of people I know who recently acquired their own bears.
C) Swindled out of the cost of this book.

Answer: The incorrect answer is C.

Ooh American Idol is going Country this week. It'll be interesting to see what the contestants would sing. Haha! And Carrie Underwood would perform too. Awesome! Looking forward to it!

Until here then. Bye! Nash out! :D

Race. Review. Ramble.

Hey peeps! Today is all about reviews since I have nothing interesting going on in my life. Well, today I watched Walt Disney's Race to Witch Mountain. The trailer kept playing on my TV set every time I turned it on so I thought it would be cool to watch it since it looked interesting.

The movie stars Dwayne Johnson, also known as "The Rock" who plays a cab driver in Las Vegas. It also stars Alexander Ludwig, who played a role in The Seeker (not that you guys would know but anyway). It's basically a simple storyline of a sci-fi movie, with two aliens (well in teenage human form) trying to get home but needs help in getting to their spaceship which is located, as you have guessed, in Witch Mountain located in the middle of nowhere. I shall say no more since it won't be exciting for those who want to see the movie but have not done so.

In my opinion, although the plot is predictable, the humour and special effects do make up for it. Funny lines from the cast and cool animation such as the spaceship and hi-tech computer system in the spaceship would surely entertain you that you would forget about the plot altogether. It's cool and fun for the whole family to see on the weekends so you guys should see if you just need to relax and unwind as well as laugh. Haha!

And other words of wisdom and junk that will make you wise or something.

All right. Here's Chapter 1 of the book I talked about in my previous post.

Intro:

This is a book. Unless you don't read, then it's a coaster.

No actual bunnies were physically harmed or emotionally damaged in the making of this book (though one chicken did sustain minor injuries). Any wisdom one gets from a bunny is probably not that hot. For your own safety, please do not take the advice of bunnies.

So you want to get wise, do you?

Well, you read Confucius or Socrates. You could study Solomon or Plato. But only one form of wisdom really and truly has a lot of pictures of bunnies...(if you get the book and see the pictures, you'll know what this means. Haha! Moving on..)

Chapter 1: Ancient Bunny Wisdom

The world does not revolve around me. It's the whole stupid universe that revolves around me.

There's no "I" in team. But there's a "me".

Love makes the world go round. But I'm pretty sure money has something to do with it too.

Work hard and the world is your oyster. Yup, you get a big, snotty oyster-scented world.

You can help anyone turn a frown outside down! Just pull off their head and flip it over.

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Unless, of course, they did unto you first, and now you have to totally open a can of "unto" on them.

Laughter is the best medicine. So if you meet somebody with broken ribs, make sure to tickle them.

We must never, ever be mean to stupid people. If we are, they might go away. Then, who will we laugh at?

Learn the difference between right and wrong. You'll probably choose wrong, but you should at least know which is which.

When life gives you lemons..
..use them to squirt lemon juice into the eyes of your enemies.

I was sad because I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet. And I said, "Hey Footless Dude, guess you won't mind if I take your shoes."

Every cloud has a silver lining..
..for example, the most horrible farts can be used to inflate the most beautiful balloons.

Anybody who says you only have yourself to blame..

..is just not very good at blaming other people.

Quiz Time!

Okay, you've been on the path to Enlightenment now for 27 pages (if you read the book). Let's see if you are any closer.

Is the glass half empty or half full?

A) Half empty.
B) Half full.
C) I like pancakes and ducks.

Answer: The correct answer is C. Sometimes, the key to wisdom is not to answer every stupid question that somebody asks you.

More coming soon. Haha! Anyway, until here then. Bye! Nash out! :D

%^&*%$#@*&!

As I have suspected, I am sick with the flu, followed by a headache and a slight sore throat ever since yesterday. I only had a slight flu last Thursday when I had take-out dinner (KFC and Canadian Pizza) to celebrate my parents' 21st wedding anniversary but it was gone soon after. For some reason, the flu bug decided to hang around the house and attack me one Friday afternoon while I was lounging and watching TV. Ugh.

So ya, I have to battle with the constant runny nose and slight headaches and sore throat until I get better. Lots of panadol pills and hot Lemsip drinks have entered my body and somehow, I still don't feel the effect. Ugh again. Sniffs.

I have come across this book by Jim Benton which is hilarious! Most of the content is somewhat common sense but in a funny way. It talks about life from a bunny's perspective. I'll share the content soon. I totally laughed with my sister when we read it.

Well, until here then so as not to spread the virus through here. Haha! Bye! Nash out! :D
