| I stumbled upon this at, well, stumbleupon. Durr. This is seriously some funny shit. Don't Argue With The Gay Flight AttendantMy flight was being served by an obviously gay flight attendant, who seemed to put everyone in a good mood as he served us food and drinks. As the plane prepared to descend, he came swishing down the aisle and told us "Captain Marvey has asked me to announce that he'll be landing the big scary plane shortly, so lovely people, if you could just put your trays up, that would be super." On his trip back up the aisle, he noticed an extremely well-dressed and exotic young woman hadn't moved a muscle. "Perhaps you didn't hear me over those big brute engines but I asked you to raise your trazy-poo, so the main man can pitty-pat us on the ground." She calmly turned her head and said, "In my country, I am called a Princess and I take orders from no one." To which the flight attendant replied, without missing a beat, "Well, sweet-cheeks, in my country I'm called a Queen, so I outrank you. Tray up, Bitch." ************ Haha. WIN. | | |

| Too Early for Xmas. But not too early to absorb the festivities leading up to it. Orchard Road is all lit up and ready to usher in Xmas (AND 2010). So before the damn street gets too crowded with merry go-ers, we make the trip down and took some pictures, followed by a yummy Din Tai Fung dinner.
Singapore Welcomes You - this is more for the benefit of all the APEC leaders and delegates who are presently in town. Hey Americans, your president is in town yo!
Decors about town...my fav is that of Paragon's!

Xiao Long Bao is yummy shiokadoos maximus!
Jean's Herbal Chicken thingy.
Cutlet Fried Rice

*BURP* wait, it's not over.
$1 push-cart ice cream! If i ever have to leave Singapore, i will seriously miss this ice cream the most. It was drizzling when we were done with dinner. But who the hell cares. Having ice cream and walking in the drizzle is such a heavenly feeling....

| The Past Week The Show Company's 25th Anniversary Party Venue: Reflections @ Keppel Bay The Show Company (TSC) celebrated their 25th Anniversary with a BANG. Literally. The food was awesome, the alcohol was flowing, the entertainment was rocking and the fireworks, you don't expect any lesser when it comes to pyro & fireworks with TSC.


****************** ZOUK FLEAMARKET & THE NEW MAJESTIC HOTEL CHARITY AUCTION Venue: Zouk Zouk held their once-monthly flea market, where everything went for 10 bucks! 2 tops for 10, 3 tops for 10, a pair of shoes for 10, a dress for 10, a bag for 10, well you get the drift. Wahidah's hotel were also invited to set up a booth for charity at the flea market and held a mini auction for their vintage collector's chair. I went along with Wahidah's 2 sisters to show some support and check out the bargains.
CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP.

It is kinda weird to see Zouk in a different light, not filled with drunken idiots and loud music. 
Charmaine & Wahidah
In the name of CHARITY.
no, i am NOT for sale.

************************** COMING SOON! First there was 1 and then 2. Then there was 3.
Coming soon.... 
My stars will be better than those. Excited! | | |
| I went to read some of my earlier posts. Earlier as in 2007 when i first started blogging here as 'maebemaebenot' and nobody gave a toss who i was. The things i wrote were a tad embarrasing at times. Funny how i didn't bother censoring myself then. Sad how much i have to keep to myself now. Some things never change though. From the time i graduated in 2006 and now 3 years on the only thing that is constant is work. The only distraction i need. It's kinda sad how when everything else in my life is shitty the best remedy is to bury myself in work. It's also nostalgic how much i have evolved as a person and how much my friends have changed alongside me. Our perspective and priorities in life change as we get older and gain more experience in life. My judgements are still clouded at times, buried in emotional depth. But luckily i have friends to set me straight and put it forth the way i would never have been able to do by myself. No man is an island, they say. It is true. As much as i would like to live this life flying solo, i am not capable of dealing with the things life throw my way by myself. I do need someone to tell me that "Look, you're going the wrong direction here. Focus. Try another route. You never know, it could be a better path to take." I am highly reliant on this kind of judgement. The community here on Xanga have evolved too. There seems to be a fine, grey, blurry line between online and real life. Some crossed in a good way, others bad. It comes to a point where some of you don't even know what is real anymore. Some people are real here as they see Xanga as the only place they can truly be themselves. Meanwhile, some people here create another life for themselves altogether. The life they couldn't have in reality. For these people the only life they managed to get out of themselves is one full of deceit. I say, shame on you. Then there is a wonderful majority of you, real as real can be both on and offline. I have had the pleasure of meeting a couple of you great people and i hope to be able to meet more some day. Do know that if in this lifetime i never get to meet any of you in person, i will be deeply saddened. I will be here to stay as long as you still want me to. I realised that in some ways i need Xanga to keep me in check of what i was, who i am and where i want to be. Back-reading on my old posts have done just that. It's sort of a timeline on my life journey albeit one that started a little late. I shall leave you now with a quote from one of my favourites: "Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." - Oscar Wilde | | |
