So funny!

Remember the Roototes I picked up the other day?

I found them in Funan today for way cheaper. I paid $22 for mine, but they’re selling them at $15.90 at the Stationary Shop on the 2nd floor. (I love that shop btw. I wanna get a label maker for myself, just because.)

So this is my big mouth telling everyone.

(Still very cute though, right?)

These girls made me bawl when they won the Gold.  It was an absolute joy to watch the finals.  When the last girl got on the floor exercise and her music of choice was the typical, happy tong-tong-chiang kind, I was a mess already.  And her flawless execution, her strength and grace, that winning smile, the crowd gone wild, and her sobbing teammates… aiyoh!

Superb!  Bravo!

I love the whole world, and its amazing things

Yesterday, I followed Joe to Zouk for Power 98FM’s Power Jam 2008. And discovered to my delight that local bands are good! The top 5 bands slugging it out last night played hard and sounded good.

The best part for me? Joe’s costume. The theme for the night was Glam Rock and up until 2 hours before the show, we had NO idea what Glam Rock was. I googled it, and came up with sparkly, androgynous, well-dressed rockers. How lah??

The sponsors for the night had already given Joe a pair of black Lee jeans. Vain Joe got them in a size too small, cos he said they were “the right look” for “the show” and “if I was gonna get them for myself, I might get them in my size”. O-kay. Enough with the air-commas. Like a Laser. Sorry.

Oh and plus he was wall-to-wall busy and couldn’t even arrange any kind of clothes for the night. So it was up to me, super wife (ta-dada-TAH!).

I called No.1 Costume Costume for Joe, and ordered up a long, black, shiny coat with tails and as many sparkles on the sleeves and collar as possible, a ruffled shirt for inside, and boot covers.

We get there and the coat they got us was sad. Like sequins falling off and only threads left kind of sad. I think it whimpered when I picked it up. It was a mad mad rush to find something, ANYTHING that worked, cos already late for makeup. (Makeup?! I know!) We go ruffling through the coats they have and I picked up an Arabian coat, a Wizard’s Coat, and a Lab coat. All very neehh.

And then we saw it (ta-dada-TAH!). Glam Rock, you ain’t seen nothing yet!!!

My daughter, mimicking an ad she heard on the radio.

Wah do you see how tight the clothes are?? *pant*

Thank you Mr Miyagi for posting this video up. Otherwise I would not know how exciting rugby is *fans self*

My darling hubby got these for me!! He and his Morning Jam Crew were at Holland Village, dressed up as the Joker (that’s worth another post) and I dunno how but he found time to go looking, and he picked these out all himself. They’re so me!!! I love them. They’re exactly what I would’ve chosen for myself. So clever lah!
