“It’s like the people who believe they’ll be happy if they go and live somewhere else, but who learn it doesn’t work that way. Wherever you go, you take yourself with you.”

SAG Jibes Part III- The Ultamatium
- Bella: What's his problem? Why does he keep looking in our direction?
- Me: He's just looking for Mel.
- Bella: If he keeps it up, I am gonna burn an SHE poster in front of him.
- Me: Yeah, and take his saucepan and whack it on his head.

- Bella: Yeah, maybe.
- Me: Oh my gosh! He's looking for his SAGkick.
- Bella: Why, you're on a roll huh?

- Bella: He must have a lot of bowls at home to cut his hair.
- Me: Yeah! I bet he uses the ban mian (home-made noodles) bowl this time.
- Me: Wait, maybe even that's too small. Maybe he has to use a saucepan instead.
Slip Of Virtual Tongue
- Me: Gasgay looks like he wanna jump novak.
- Sam: Both want to jump each mother!

One for Love
It’s funny how one lunchtime dessert perfectly encaspulates the stages of love into a nutshell.
I had a ‘Major Crush’
Leading to Debbie’s ‘First Kiss’

It culminated in Foxy’s ‘Holy Matrimony’.
I guess if it all fails and falls apart, we’ll end up with Geraldine’s extra sour and spicy Mee Sua.

- Javen: Yes. How about you? (thinks for a moment)
- Javen: I think you'll be really calm. Just like you don't seem to be bothered when your phone got stolen. I'll be crying by then.
- Me: ....
Economic God, Hear My Plea
Dear US Currency…
Please drop to the wonderful levels of the 1.3-range like you were 3 months ago. I promise I will contribute more to your devastated economy and help you in my own wee little way of easing the strain you are in now.
Forever & Always
