Curiosity paid off..

Was at Jurong Point Shopping centre on Sunday afternoon with my friend. 

We walked past NTUC fairprice, and saw a long queue. 

Being the typical Kaypo Singaporean, we joined in the queue(Without knowing what it is for.)
A sweet young girl, passed us a piece of note, asking us to fill in our particulars and some wishes to our Team Singapore, for the 26th SEA Games live in Indonesia!

That's all we need to do!!

You get a chance to spin the wheel and win some souvenirs!!

This was what i wrote.

(",)

And what did i get for the wheel?


I got a scarf !!! And the paper fan was given to me by my friend. HAHA!!

Support Team Singapore !

Send your well wishes to them HERE, and stand a chance to win their "I Love Team Singapore" travel package for two to catch the 26th SEA Games live in Indonesia!

Good luck! =)

Coughs.. Coughs.. and pops a Fisherman's Friend.

那些年，我們一起追的女孩。

This looks like a very nice movie, and from Taiwan!! =)
It reminded me of the secondary schooling time.
Chasing after the girl you like, and then going through the "growing" stage.

Check out their website, and its showing in Singapore November 9!!

那些年，我們一起追的女孩。

I want to watch, leh..

我很醜可是我很溫柔 (I am ugly, but I am very gentle.)

You all still remember Shrek?



Remember how he saved Princess Fiona, and then them being together?

I came across this article on STOMP. 

This couple was being discussed on the internet.

"In a Chinese online forum, netizens slammed the girl for going out with the guy, calling them 'Beauty and the Beast'. They wonder why such a beautiful girl would go out with a guy who is below average looking.
"It's funny how we are so obsessed with looks, especially when it comes to dating -- that beautiful people should only go out with people who are aesthetically compatible with them."

"And in this guy's case, netizens also wonder if he's rich.
"Of course, she can't possibly be interested in him because he is simply a nice guy, can she?

Yes, i admit, the guy was not THAT handsome. However, from what i see, the couple was happy together. Although people will always associate the 帅哥配美女 (Handsome guy & Pretty girl) idea in them.. there are still people who are not so particular with the outlook of a person. 

Being a couple, they should be happy together, as the two of them might be there with each other as partner for the rest of their life!

Come on, people!

Stop gauging people, or couple by their outlooks.

Look at their characters, behaviours, and inner beauty.

Being ugly, or not that handsome is not end of the world.

Just be YOURSELF!

May this song motivate you, like how it did to me.

Dr Ong Chit Chung

This afternoon, television, Channel 8 showed a documentary showing Dr Ong Chit Chung, and his family.

In case you don't know about him, Dr Ong was a Member of Parliament for Jurong GRC, which is the place im staying. 

Quoted from an article from ST:

* * * * * * * *

Dr Ong, a five-term MP, was very diligent about his Meet-The-People sessions, said Mr Chan Wee Lee, a Jurong town council manager in charge of Bukit Batok since 2001. 

'He'd make sure he saw all the residents personally. He'd come around 8pm and go home around midnight,' said Mr Chan, 41.

Like the other grassroots leaders, he ticked off a list of projects Dr Ong had implemented for his constituents.

In 2001, he introduced free daily dinners for about 100 needy people.

He started a bursary scheme for about 200 to 300 students from lower-income families who did not qualify for Edusave bursaries. which give $150 to $400 to students with good grades from lower-income homes.

Last year, he had 10 plasma TV sets, each 43-inch wide, installed at senior citizen's corners.

* * * * * * * *

However he passed away peacefully at home on July 14, 2008.

He was 59 years old.

He contributed a lot in making Bukit Batok, the place i am staying now, so well maintained.
And came up with the idea of having a large screen projector whereby residents of this area can enjoy a movie night together, under the moonlight.

According to mum, during a house visiting session, he actually came into our house and talked to us, i had not much memories of this, but seeing him at a few events within the neighbourhood.. to me, he was a humble and helpful man.

This was further confirmed from the aunties and uncles whom Dr Ong helped when he was the MP. 

One mentioned he was very friendly.

The other said he was so helpful, and very "people-oriented"

Great man. 

And it has been 3 years, since you left this world. 

This is just a post to remind ourself :

Life is short, and unpredictable. Live everyday happily. 

=)
