The Best of Both Worlds.

What is the meaning of Best of Both Worlds?

As according to an online website called "thefreedictionary.com", it means: a situation wherein one can enjoy two different opportunities. (*Typically: enjoy ~; have ~; live in ~.)

For me, i always wanted to be able to stay home, do my own things, and still get paid. HAHA!
Guess this will never happen, we all got to work hard to earn the $ before we can enjoy.

What do you hope to be able to do so that you can enjoy the Best of Both Worlds?

But no fears, i have some good things to share with you all, whereby you can get the Best of Both or even the whole World! =P

Stefanie Sun gets married ! =)

One on my favourite Singapore singers, Stefanie Sun gets married!

Actually i did no get to know this, until my Mm told me about it on Tuesday night. (LOL)
I think i am really outdated on news recently.. Need to do some catching up on news soon!


Quoted from HERE:
SINGAPORE'S very own pop princess, Stefanie Sun, has officially tied the knot.
Yesterday, the 32-year-old wed her boyfriend, Mr Nadim van der Ros, in a traditional wedding ceremony. Later in the evening, the two arrived at luxury hotel Capella Singapore on Sentosa to host a wedding dinner that began at 7pm.

Sun and Mr van der Ros, an engagement director at marketing agency Possible Worldwide, have been dating for five years.



So sweet right?

And anyway, my ex gf (we broke up 10years ago) is also getting married this month too!
Congrats, and All The Best! =)

Off to bed, am really lacking on the sleeping time, too...
Zzzz...

My virgin voting experience..

7 May 2011.
I did my virgin vote in my almost 30 years in Singapore!

  • Went to the polling station, full of excitement.
  • Crowd was not that much, and everyone looked stern. 
  • Few policemen were around there too.. and the ground were nicely labelled, guiding us all along in the polling station.
  • The area was nicely organized and voting was done, within 5 mins! (Must clap hands to this part.)

Mark a big "cross" against the party you want to vote for.

DONE!
=)














I shall keep this slip in my "mooncake" steel box, till 5 years later. LOL!

And then last night i was too excited to sleep, and stayed up till 1:30am to watch the results. (Even though i was working the next day, Sunday..)


Results in picture format.

PAP still win most of the seats.
And my personal favourite Nicole Seah, din win. SAD!
Not much changes, just hope that our life will get along normally, praying hard things won't get more expensive!

Anyway, just for laughs: someone made this video of Mr Yam Ah Mee, the Returning Officer for the Parliamentary and Presidential Elections. 
Video was of him sayng those words over and over again as he read the results of our elections.



And i realized, I am like working 6.5 days out of 7 days this week.(luckily for the Labour Day holiday on Monday) And my weekends, burnt. =(

Another new week ahead, i need to rest well.

How was your weekends, my dear friends? =)

One day before voting day, the Cooling Off Day..

Tomorrow is the day we cast our votes.
So today was a "cooling day'.

Quoted from HERE : Cooling-off Day is a day when campaigning is disallowed and election
advertising must not be published or displayed. This is to let voters reflect rationally
on various issues raised at an election before going to the polls.


So, no more rally to go to.

Anyway, I think it's not so ''cool'' for me, as my nose suddenly bleed, while i was surfing on my laptop in my room.



After discovering it, i quickly ran out of room, used a piece of toilet paper, to stop the bleeding. (Just like when you meet a tap leaking, quickly find cloth to try to stop it.)

I must be lacking of rest or sleep..

And, im working this weekends.

Sobs...

Obama says: Osama bin Laden killed in shootout,

Today's top news, the death of Osama bin Laden.

Quoted from Yahoo.sg : 
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden was killed in a firefight with U.S. forces in Pakistan on Sunday, ending a nearly 10-year worldwide hunt for the mastermind of the September 11 attacks.



After so long and the super lasting game of 'Hide and Seek", he was finally dead.

And like Megatron in Transformers (Who copy who?), Osama bin Laden is also being buried under the sea!
Read the article HERE.

However, with this news, will there be more troubles?
His followers taking revenge ?
An Osama bin Laden II ??
Blah Blah Blah..

I don't dare to think.

Let's just get going into our normal life, and stay happy everyday.

Singapore Election Day, 7 May 2011

The big news, this week: The General Election Day, on the 7 May 2011 !

I started scratching my head: "no MP came to my house to shake hands yet?" (Oh well, it will be a walk-over, again)
The very last voting took place was like at least 15 to 20 years ago (An election usually takes place every 5 years.) I still remember my mum, holding my hand, to the polling centre, located at void decks of the HDB flats.. whereby the atmosphere was so tense and quiet.

And that was the only time.

Therefore knowing that i won't have much chance to vote again, this time around.
I went to bet on the Polling Date, hoping to strike, and win some pocket money.


As predicated (by myself), the number was sold out, which means no further bets can be taken in for this number. LOL

Some info can be found HERE, but not sure if this is the official website? (It's not updated yet, anyway...)


"People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people."

So friends, who get to vote...
The "Lighting", the "Hammer", the "Star", the "Arrow" or the "Sun" ?

Please Vote Wisely.

Videos shared on Facebook

Hi all, its been another crazy week, and i am very outdated on Facebook. However, came across some videos from Facebook.

1) Sharks don't cry - Stop finning! a campaign by www.sharkproject.org



Quoted from Youtube: "Sharks don't cry" is a very sad clip about a young tiger shark. The scenes were all shot secretly by hiding the camera. The film is part of the "Stop Finning" campaign from Sharkproject to call everyone up that butchering of sharks is a threat to our ecosystem.

Support Sharkproject. Get more information under http://www.sharkproject.org

* * * *  * * * *
Usually when we are invited to wedding dinners, the first thoughts is whether the dinner has Shark Fins soup as one of the dinner course (which also determines the red packet amount too) I admit i am one of them..

After watching this video, i am feeling guilty! Must think twice before eating it..

My future parents-in-law, can i don't include shark fins soup at my wedding? =P

2) Mass animal deaths since the start of 2011 



* * * * * * * *
This is a video of mass animal deaths over the world..

Birds, Fish.. died in mass.

End of world?? 
Apocalypse?
2012??


Sigh... i think the Earth is sick.
If really suddenly we all died, i thank you all for being my friends! 
*HUGS*
=)

3) Funny Interpretative Dance: 'Hit Me Baby One More Time' - Fast and Loose




* * * * * * * *

This is a video of David Armand performing a mime to Britney Spears's 'Hit Me Baby One More Time', and the people are to guess what song he is trying to do. =D

I keep laughing at his actions!!

Check out his other videos on Youtube too.. HAHA!
