sing along with Kermit the Frog



RAINBOW CONNECTION
Kermit the Frog

Why are there so many
Songs about rainbows
And what's on the other side
Rainbow's are visions
But only illusions
And rainbows have nothing to hide
So we've been told and some choose to believe it
But I know they're wrong wait and see

Someday we'll find it
The Rainbow Connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me

Who said that every wish
Would be heard and answered
When wished on the morning star
Somebody thought of that
And someone believed it
Look what it's done so far
What's so amazing
That keeps us star gazing
And what do we think we might see

Someday we'll find it
The Rainbow Connection
The lovers the dreamers and me

All of us under its spells
We know that it's probably magic

Have you been half asleep
And have you heard voices
I've heard them calling my name
Is this the sweet sounds that called the young sailors
The voice might be one and the same
I've heard it too many times to ignore it
There's something that I'm supposed to be

Someday we'll find it
The Rainbow Connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me

Laa, da daa dee da daa daa,
La laa la la laa dee daa doo...

The Singapore Repertory Theatre presents

Avenue Q


Finally caught the last show of Avenue Q and it doesn't suck to see.... wheeeee. Totally whacky and hilarious....


If you were gay, tt'll be ok


i mean cos hey i'd like u anyway


because u see if it were me


i would be free to say tt I was gay


but I'm not gay...

............................................................................................

tt's my favourite song of the day. Initially, I thought that it'll only be showing puppets only. I mean I didnt realise that the actors holding the puppets will be singing and dancing alongside. Instead of distracting the audience, the actors actually play an important role in the show. Their dramatic actions and singing made the puppets come to live. Avenue Q is like Sesame Street all grown up!! Notice the resemblence of Trekkie Monster and Cookie Monster, Rod and Nicky similar to Ernie and Bert, just more gay. Lolx.

.................................................................................


"The internet is for porn, the internet is for porn"


"Sticks and stones, Kate Monster"


"You're a pervert Trekkie. Normal ppl dont sit at home and look at porn"


" I know that Brian uses the internet to sell his clothes on ebay"


"You're right Kate Monster. But what about AFTER that??"


..................................................................................................



There's so much to do in Singapore. WHo says there isn't? There's art, concerts, Zoukout, food.... it's everywhere!! PLus students get to enjoy discounts on sistic tickets. Like we got the Avenue Q tickets at a discount rate of 25%. That's half of what ppl pay outside for CAT1 tickets. Also, Cats the Musical is coming to Singapore in Mar 2009. And students get to buy CAT1 tickets which is the stall seats @ $50 nett. That's like more than half of what adults have to pay. : D

Totally recommend it. Don say Singapore is boring.

We're going wafu over japanese!!

Today is considered a fruitful day, thought at the whole family could make our way down to Delifrance for a buffet breakfast. Turned out that most of them had either eaten or had plans for later. Oh wells, having slept for only 4 and a half hrs, probably the first time I woke up at 830am. While comtemplating whether to continue to sleep, my mother asked me to go exercise with my little cousin. Apparently he needed to do some workout, flabby belly I reckon. So there is a reason why I woke up so early :) So off we went. Before that, a little situation occurred when we had to pump the basketball and sports link wasnt open at that time. In the end, I purchased the pump, save the hassel. Turned out that the ball was no better, by the time we finished playing, it was deflated again. Anyway, it was great waking up so early knowing that you have not wasted any moment. The day seemed longer as I realised.

Making sushi was considered horrendous yet fun. Esp with my little cousin around. That little boy couldnt even stand still for a minute. Well, at least the sushi tasted great. I recommend to use pork floss as the filling. Crunchy. Didnt have time to really sit down and study as there's so much things to do during weekends. Went to Singapore Biennale 2008 at the City Hall on Saturday as it was fantastic, though we had to rush through exhibitions as they close at 8pm. This year's theme is 'Wonder', very different from the one two years ago, themed 'Belief'. The latter to me was a much darker theme. However, this year's exhibitions were lesser than 'Belief'. Anyway SB2008 is ending next Saturday so interested parties pls really make a trip down. It's worth it. Can't wait for SB2010. I think I can consider collecting ticket stubs and SB guide as a bi-hobby. hee.

My sister and I made bento lunched for tmr. Super exciting cos the Chew family has finally decided to go healthy!! Haha. Yes, tt's right, we packed japanese rice topped with sesame seeds and unagi as the main dish followed by a light salad with strawberries and cherry tomatoes. Second dish was cold zaru soba with seaweed and wasabi. Yumms, cant wait to taste it. Definitely more successful than what Jo and I did during our secondary sch term. Lolx. Right jo?? :D After staying in hall, late nights with late dinner and supper plus unhealthy diet are so showing on my skin. At this rate, I don't think I have the energy to keep up with my studies. It's time to seriously consider whether to stay next year. Too bad I have to continue to stay due to my committments in Rag. Well, I must experience one year of Rag. It's going to be great!! Sister's birthday celebration was a quick one esp the camera's batt is dying. Practically rushing to take photos, sing song and cut cake. The chocolate cake from Han's is a thumbs up. A bit too chocolatety though, must drink more green tea.

It's only midnight am I able to really get stuck in my chair and flip open the dust-covered textbook. Everyone's asleep. When will I ever sleep early?
