Random-Bandon Post.

I've finally started watching "The Celebrity Apprentice". 2 episodes in and I am quite impressed. Different from the usual version.

I like Ivanka Trump! She's pretty and smart(:

The women's team are pretty hopeless at this point in time. But I don't like the men's team because of Gene Simmons. Especially that comment he made to Ivanka *gags*

Pretty tired. Thursday has been a funny sort of day. Woke up with thoughts about Twitter. Super focused when I was studying. And an assortment of different things. Now, I'm tired *yawns*

Anyone noticed the "People You Might Know"application in Facebook? I was reading about it in the newspaper last month and now *tada* It's out!

Kind of cool, eh?(: I know I am probably lagging. But I am suffering from Facebook Fatigue at this moment. Hahas.

I re-discovered the reason and arguments for keeping a lock blog. But more on that another day. It will most probably be a whole blog post by itself.

Other blog posts to look out for (coming to a Tweet near you!) -
  • Emo - 要不要?: My take on emo people and the likes. Spur by @plaktoz tweet about emo girlfriends a long time ago.
  • Definition of beauty: Article from TNP 2 Saturdays ago mentioned that during the recent "Singapore Fashion Festival 2008", the same flaws that the girls were criticised for were cheered on on males models. Erm, fairness?!
  • Feminist - 大男人 v.s. 大女人
Yups. These topics are still floating around in my head. No solid idea or arguments. Just a few funny analogy and point of view.

I realised I am exhibiting more of a Type A personality these days. Less empathetic and hot-headed. I don't need anger management. I need Type A personality management.

Like San said, "Sometimes, you just want things done right now right here. You tend to say offensive things or things that can get misinterpreted. You don't mean any harm. But, people will take it the wrong way. You can yell at someone and then forget it the very next moment. It doesn't affect the way you think about the person. No hard feelings. But not everyone gets that."

Yeah. Summed up pretty nicely (:

Okay, bedtime!

wrong translation?

Was randomly flipping through i-周刊 when I saw this interview with Jade Seah. Apparently she's acting in a show with 3 of the 七公主. And like most young people in their 20s these days, she can't read Chinese. Okay, she's lousy in her chinese.

Anyways, the interview included one-page of her han-yu-ping-yin-ed script. And there was a glaring error on it. The script goes:

G Force: G Force G Force, we are the best! G Force G Force, down with the rest! (同时指向敌队)Yeah!

* 只见敌队队长和其他队员的神情十分沮丧

Above the word "沮丧" was the hanyu pinyin, "ju sang" and then the meaning, "bored"!!!!

Okay, my chinese is going down the drain. But from my memory, 沮丧 doesn't mean bored right?! It means disappointed? Let-down? Definitely not bored!

She needs a better translator!!!

Okay, just something I noticed while I was stoning in front of the TV(:
