Crazy Horse Paris? NOOOOO!

WHAT?!

Crazy Horse Paris is coming to Clarke Quay? No way! And as part of an effort to bring in more tourists! Trust me, Singapore does not need another Geylang, not even one that's more glamorous, more glittery, and more colourful. This absurd thing is approved? What happened? Has S'pore really sunk to a level where it would do this to earn money? Mon Dieu.

How can Clarke Quay have "finally found its niche"? Well fine, if its niche is comtemptible bars with leggy dancers catering to men.

A Ms Tan, some person in charge of this or something said, "The coming of Crazy Horse ties in with our strategy of offering a variety of entertainment and lifestyle choices for the area. It is a different experience and a preoven overseas concept that caters to mature audiences." *Sputter* She's a typical buisnesswoman, that one.

I don't think this is a good plan at all. I don't.

On Nguyen and the S'pore Judicature

Dec 2, 2005.

On that fateful day, Vietnamese-descended Nguyen Tuong Van was hung in Changi Prison for carrying 14 ounces of heroin travelling from Cambodia to Australia, despite repeat pleas of clemency from the Australian government.

Australian PM John Howard said that the execution would harm ties between Singapour and Australie. Indeed, there was a newspaper report that told of Australian students threatening to boycott Singapore products. Australian Attorney-General Philip Ruddock had earlier condemned the execution as "barbaric". But that was probably just because he comes from a country where there is no capital punishment, not even for the deadliest of criminals.

So, was S'pore "barbaric" in its decision to hang Nguyen? He was, after all, carrying enough of the vile, addictive, analgesic drug to supply tens of thousands of individual doses. It would totally ruin countless families, or even a small country like S'pore. Also, Nguyen was aware that S'pore punishes drug smugglers severely. Announcements are made on the PA system of all planes bound for us. Nguyen took the gamble, so he had to pay.

But I still feel a pang of pity for the poor guy - don't we all? To die so horribly at the age of 25. And imagine how he must have felt when the sentence had been read out 3 years ago. Imagine the fear, the loneliness, and the regret, guilt, and anguish, of being put on death row, stuck in a cell with others of your kind. I'm sure that if you were to visit these prisoners, you could practically taste the tangible feelings in the air. No words could describe that.

It's even worse for Nguyen. He had probably gotten his hopes up when his countrymen were all praying for him to be spared of the gallows. Even his prime minister made pleas of clemency to President S R Nathan. The whole thing was even more heated up when his case hogged the headlines for days. But still, the Singapore Government was adamant in its decision to hang Nguyen. It does not make special allowances just because it has close ties with the country in question. If it did, how is it supposed to explain other hangings of foreign criminals? There would be an uproar.

Nguyen had claimed to be helping his brother ease his backlog of debts. How must his bro feel, knowing that his own kin risked - and ended up sacrificing - his life to help him? Would he comtemplate suicide? We hope not - in fact, he should make a U-turn in his life and start anew, afresh, so that Nguyen would not die in vain.

What about Mrs Kim Nguyen? As a mother, she must feel terrible to watch her son suffering, knowing full well that she could only give emotional support all through to the end and nothing else. Singapore had made a small concession in this case - Nguyen's mom was allowed to touch him before he was executed, although a "farewell hug" that had been requested wasn't pemmitted.

Well, let's hope that late Mr Nguyen's family survive this ordeal well through their bereavement stage and that the world will learn not to bring drugs to Singapore.

May he RIP.

choices

After apprehension, relief, and lots of discussion and phone calls, I have submitted my S1 Option Form upon which I have indicated my 6 choices, which are Nanyang Girls', Dunman High, Anglican High, CHIJ St. Nicholas Girls', SCGS, and TKGS.

I didn't want either of the elective programs, but I did choose to take French a third language, which means that I have to go all the way to Bishan twice a week, for two 2-hour-long lessons.

On a much lighter note, have you tried Delifrance's new, heavenly desserts? They are wonderful! I've sampled the Crêpe Suzette, the Profiteroles au Chocolat, and the Signature Bread Pudding. C'est délicieux!

Bon appetit!

Paris 2005

Money is the root of all evil.

France is being crippled - no, already crippled - by riots so terrible there are countless reports of its evil progress in the news every day.

Every night - and most probably tonight - youths descended from African immigrants torch cars, burn schools, and hurl Molotov cocktails and other projectiles a riot police.

All this was ignited on 27 October, when two teenage boys, aged 15 and 17, were accidentaly electrocuted when they climbed onto an electrical substation in the Paris suburb of Clichy-sous-Bois, allegedly evading the police.

The police have denied that they were chasing the boys, but such is the height of mistrust, racism, and discrimination in the outskirts of Paris that the boys chose to risk their lives rather than be caught, searched, and humiliated by authority.

The rioters are mobs of angry deracinated youth who never thought of France as their home. They hate the French. The French hate them, which is why they are shunted off to run-down ghettos and are mostly unemployed - joblessness is double the national average at 19.6 per cent. More than 30 per cent of 21-to-29-year-olds are out of work, not because they are incompetent, but because they are ostracized and rejected by society. Incomes are also 75 per cent below average.

The brusque way that the government, especially maverick Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy, handled the situation, made everything worse - he denounced the rampaging youth as "rabble" and "scum".
His rival for presidency Prime Minister Domonique Villepin has done better, calling emergency cabinet meetings and comforting bereaved parents.

The mayhem has spread far beyond the flashpoint of Clichy-sous-Bois to Marseille, Toulouse, Toulon, Draguignan, Strasbourg, Nantes, and other cities and suburbs of France. Even in Germany, there're 10 cars burned out overnight but police rejected suggestions that Parisian conditions have spread to the country.
This has sparked major countries like the US, Japan, and Australia to siiue travel advisories recommending caution when going to France.

However, according to a report in Today, Singaporeans are not afraid to travel to France, perhaps because things are calm around tourist attractions like Eiffel Tower and the Musée du Louvre - so far.

It is sad, really, how a cosmopolitan-yet-cultural city like Paris can be so easily reduced to cinders. But of course. Hatred can do terrible things, especially hatred that was sowed a long time ago. The bigotry of the French did not spring up yesterday. The cannot-stand-each-other attitide of both the rioters and the French is the result of a long-buried hatred, which, as everyone knows now, culminated in Paris 2005.

Racism, unlike bio-terrorism, is not new. Racism is age-old, and has existed since the beginning of time. Quite recently, there are already a few examples which I know of - the Holocaust, the London Underground bombings, the alleged neglect of Katrina victims, and right here in Singapore, the case of the two bloggers who slammed Malays and Muslims.

The movie The Interpreter reflects very vividly the state of unrest in Africa. It's a long story, but down there, corruption led to all the people living in poverty. The movie might not be based on a true story, but I think there are definitely real people out there in that terrible, terrible state where children, children are taught to hold a gun to your temple and pull the trigger without the slightest twinge of remorse. Now, if these aren't the future terrorists, then who are? These people have enough on their plates to worry about, and here we are being racist when we're supposed to help them. How bad is that?

So, back to France now. They teach the proudly-held French beliefs, the National motto of Liberté, égalité, fraternité in schools but do not put them into practice in life.

Well, let's just hope that this riot quickly ebbs awayand when the smoke clears and the dust settles, France and the world will wake up. Éveiller, la France.

theapprentice

It's nothing personal, it's just buisness.

Heard of that phrase? It's the tagline of the reality show The Apprentice.

In the show hosted by Donald Trump, two teams, Magna Corporation and Net Worth - respectively the "book smarts" and the "street smarts" - compete for a five-figure salary working under Mr Trump.

Every week, there's a task - a challenge - for both teams. The team that loses will go back to the boardroom, where one person will be fired by Mr Trump. So far, only Tana (Net Worth) and Kendra (Magna) are left in the competition. One will win the dream job and be crowned the Apprentice. The other will pack her bags, get into a waiting New York cab, and catch the next flight home.

The show is a great creation, but I feel that Mr Trump doesn't know the candidates well enough to decide who stays on the show and who doesn't. I mean, he only watches about ten minutes of footage on each task! At least, that's what I heard, and apparently, it seems so too.

See, there was one episode where Audrey, this really great, young fighter was fired because she "couldn't manage her team well as project manager". Ther truth is, her teammates - especially Chris - didn't listen to her, as they think she's incompetent, just because she's really beautiful. Audrey never went to college, but she's just as good as the others - if not better. She had come a long way to be who she is today. She had no parental love during her childhood - her dad and mum were jailed - and at 17, she had nothing, not even a cent to her name. Because she's extraordinarily beautiful, girls hated her at school. She wanted to scratch her face, to scar herself, so that she could fit in.

Anyway, some of her team mates were really uncooperative. They objected her to being project manager, but do they have to sulk like petulant little kids all the way through and then point the accusing finger at Audrey on the boardroom? That's so unprofessional and childish.

Ah, I was digressing. So, my point is that Mr Trump does not really understand the situation well enough to decide who to eliminate each week.

So, actually, this game is not a really accurate measure of one's competency and capability on the business field, and I hope those who have been eliminated will climb to the topmost rung of the corporate ladder - really, they are all amazing, what with having being handpicked from a million Apprentice-wannabes.

Halloween Creeps

HAHAHA!!! Bet you couldn't read the previous article! This is my Halloween trick...teehee.

Now, this is what that gibberish was...

Have you read today's 'Today' newspaper? Did you see, under the this quirky world section, a small paragraph on how Venezuela's President, Hugo Chavez, warned the parents not to let their children celebrate Halloween because it has to do with terrorism? He said that the American tradition is contrary to their culture, as it involves children dressing up as witches and wizards.

Okay, enough about Mr Chavez. How did YOU celebrate Haloween? Dress up as your kid brother's worst nightmare and scare him to death in return for the time he spilt soda (accidentaly on purpose) on your project work? Or, just to get your little sister back, tell her made-up, exaggerated stories of ghosts?

Haha, I didn't even celebrate Halloween; I'm not one for ghosts and spooks. In fact, I only realized that it was Halloween after dinner.

The world is my oyster.

I have decided to ignore those, ahem, those people once and for all. I shall discuss more intellectual and less meaningless issues from now on.

So, yeah, to my friends, who have read The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro, feel free to leave your comments about the book. To those who haven't read it, there's no better time than right now!

The book revolves around Stevens, a loyal and long-serving butler at Darlington Hall in 1956, a time of acute change in England. He decides to take a motoring trip through the West Country after his employer, Mr Farraday, made the suggestion. The 6-day trip is a journey into the past of Stevens. It takes in the two world wars, Stevens' unrealized love for his housekeeper, and the culture and society at that time. The language is really beautiful; it's something that isn't usually found in more modern books like The Princess Diaries. Don't get me wrong, though. I do like The Princess Diaries; it transports the reader into a fantasy world.

Anyway, it's really surprising, to me anyway, how butlers of that time are expected to give in to every whim of their employer. Different employers have different personalities, temperaments, etc., and butlers are expected to figure out how to behave in front of them. It apparently appears that the employers aren't very friendly towards their staff; they converse in the most formal of terms, and aren't open to each other like how you'd expect people living under the same roof would be. But well, that's 1956 butler-etiquette for you. And yeah, Ishiguro describes life at that time very vividly.

So hurry down to a bookstore right away and get your hands on a copy of the book, if you haven't already. But mind you, not all bookstores carry it, I know for a fact that Popular doesn't. I got mine at Kinokuniya, by the way.

Happy reading!

Elle

Hello 'neo',

No, I'm sorry I don't agree with you. See, even though I know deep down inside that I seriously shouldn't waste my on people like 'samantha', I just can't resist the urge to say something to whoever that person is behind the facade, behind the mask.

So well, yeah, thanks for pointing out my mistake to me, but I'm sorry I don't agree with you.

Cya,

After all blogs are for others to see and where we all let out frustrations.... so any other ppl hu have comments that you need to express through our blog, feel free to, coz I am not going to care much about it anyway.

To tell the truth its pretty entertaining, if it were not for the comments, I dun thinkI would be writting in this much, let alone coming to my blog... So I dun really mind, after all, this kind of stuff do make life more interesting doesn't it?

And now more and more ppl are coming to see our blog, not becoz we are popular or think we are, neither coz we think that we have superb writing or anything(nobody has perfect spelling, even you do not, rite?) and also not that we wan to show off knowledge, but this is our blog and we do what WE like and that is what you ppl out there do for your blogs too, rite?... And of course we welcome CONSTRUCTIVE critisms and prefer not to have other kinds of them.

And, I juz need to say something, wait ar, I pick up the phone first...

KK, erm... rite, the ppl who wrote the comments, if we have offended you in anyway, now, or next time, or before...sorry... it is difficult to say sorry but we want to let you know that we sincerly apologise if there has been anything that we did wrong...

Yup, and wat else? Er, yup, plz dun give THOSE kind of comments except for constructive ones. Like you all said in the comments list that you want us to accept constructive critisms... and also, if you do have anything else to tell us, plz comment again to let us noe... thx

My words are my identity.

Hello Samantha, whoever you are, you actually contradict yourself without knowing it. Well, it's a common mistake, but it gives you away. See, there's a startling discrepancy between your "although i dont noe you, and i just came across this blog" and your "how u noe i dont noe her".

Don't you agree?

And "Peter Rabbit", thanks a million for standing up for me! You're right, those people don't even deserve my attention and time. Thanks again.

Erm, wat shall I post on my blog todae?

I seriously dunno, erm...I can't deny the fact that I'm angry at some ppl, but I dun want that to affect my day, after all it is raining so heavily and the LIGHTNING and thunder is so loud.

I have no mood to play MAPLESTORY nor to read Harry Potter and The Goblet Of Fire again...

Anyway, Thanx Jill for hearing me out yesterday and making my day better... I wonder when you'll pass me the CD wif all the Japanese songs in it...juz cant wait... but take your time....

Whoa!

My words are my identity.

Isn't that vague and anonymous enough?

Well, I never expected that a blog is so, uh, how do I describe it...so heated up, I guess! Yeah, I'm kinda overwhelmed by all those comments and brickbats. But I'd just like to tell "anonymous", whoever you people are, that if you'd want to make me mad or depressed or whatever, I really pity you because you're doing a lousy job. I suggest that you go hone your skills at making constructive criticisms first before airing your ignorance, your poor spelling, your absolutely gross+sick language, and most of all, your dirty selves.

I'd like to thank all my supporters there. Without you, the comment section of this blog will be utterly polluted by those uncivilised people who have nothing better to do than taint cyberspace with profanities.

Elissa, thanks for making me happy and giving me advice! I don't know what it'd be like without you!

So, I've said what I've wanted to, and I'll sign off now, knowing that my voice will be heard.

T_T motivation in life

...is there someone whom you can always confide in?...

Has there always been a person in your life whom you can confide in and talk to them about anything under the Sun? Is there a specific person in your life that motivates you do different things in life that have never crossed your mind?

Well, let me telll you that if you do not hav anybody to talk to or no one whom u can trust and speak to in times of trouble, that could only mean 2 things:

1) You have a very poor family background and due to your background, no one is willing to be your friend.

2) You juz are not a very nice person.(No offense, but reflect, and think about what you are always doing, and deep down, you will have the answer, wether you dare to accept the truth, that is all up to u.

If you find that you are not able to find friends coz of your background, then those whom you noe are juz not real friends, and they are juz not worth you being sad over.

And if you realise that you do not have what it takes to be worth having true friends, you ought to be changing. MAYBE what I'm saying is insulting or boring or even not 'cool', but whatever it is, it remains the truth and wether anybody likes it, they will hav to acccept it.

.............................................................<<>>...............................................................

But Iwould juz like to let you noe that despite meeting all kinds of ppl and friends wiith different personalities, there are still true friends out there, whom you have yet discovered. So good luck in your search 4 the perfect friend.

I confess I'm kinda serious today, and may sound like I'm lecturing or anything, sry T_T, juz not in a good mood

look on the bright side of life

All of us should be optimistic and look on the bright side of life

Maybe sometimes things do not turn out the way we want them to, but we hav to bear in mind that whatever it is, we cannot always have things our own way.

Sometimes, we meet with difficult times and might not be able to handle them well. But we have to remember that there is a solution to every problem, and with the help of friends and family we can overcome these problems very quickly and grow from them.

I also remember reading a passage about laughter, although I can't really remember where I read it from, I can still remember it's contents very clearly. It says that it is proven that laughter is good for health. So remember to laugh everyday!

HAHAHAHA

y is the world so unfair?

Yup, y is the world so unfair?

Or specifically my family? Y is it that my younger brother, Jerome gets whatever he wants? Y is it that when HE is in the wrong my sis and I get scolded and blamed instead, Y is it that when my Bro does anything wrong, he NEVER gets scolded and gets away with it? He does not even get bitten!!!! When I was younger, any wrong deed was followed with canning, but look now, my bro seems to be living in utmost pleasure and with us taking all the blame for him. Let me ask you, do you even think that is fair?

If you do, then you are probably a REAL patient and loving sibling, who is able to endure scoldings for nothing. And I will definitely respect you for that attitude.

If it were juz a few times that my brother did wrong and I hav to take the rap for him, I will be willing, if i could juz help my little brother. But it hurts me the most when I get scolded juz for him and he does not even appreciate it and even gets my parents to shield him juz because he is youngest!!!

Worst of all, that I cannot stand is his ' I am their favourite, I get everything I want and no wan is to offend me as long as my parents are there' attitude. He thinks that as long as my parents are there, he gets to do whatever he wants. And he IS right.

But do my parents even think that there are being unreasonable juz to help my brother. After all we are their children too and hav feelings. If anyone of us does wrong, they get scolded, isn't that rite, not when one does wrong, the others get scolded rite?

My parents never think about our feelings when they side with my brother. They never do listen to what we hav to say! If this were to continue, do you think it is even fair? I know ppl are always using the phrase ' this is not fair' for granted, but I am not, I genuinely feel that what they are doing is totally unfair. Maybe if thay are biased, they do not hav to be so extreme or show it that clearly?

What I simply want is that they be reasonable and do things impartially, I also want my Brother to stop siding with my parents when my sis and I do something wrongly, to add salt into our wounds.

He knows clearly that we cannot offend our parents, our even talk back, so when my parents scold us, he simply repeats what they are saying and hurt us even more. But does he even noe how much my sis and I care for him? We are always leaving the best for him, comforting him when he's sad, but does he appreciate it? N-O NO! Well I guess he's led too good a life and I hope that when he grows older, he knows that what he did in the past was all so wrong.

Hope my Mum does not see this(or I'm so dead)
Elissa(how I envy Elle for having no siblings)
Sigh, at least, I've let it ALL out, but maybe I'll hav more tommorow...

a trek across the country

I fall three times, I get up four.

Hello, it's Elle here. I went ice-skating with Elissa two days ago, and it was pretty much fun. Minus the falls, it'd be much better.

Yup, Elissa was right, her sister did really appear like a superwoman. I think she's going to the rink again today, but this time with her fellow St. John's "comrades". Or did I get that wrong?

But Elissa's sis wasn't the only expert on the rink. Read this: There was an ah ma skating gracefully across the ice, her moves perfect. She even gave Elissa's sis tips on how to skate backwards. Surprising, eh?

There were some kids training seriously too. Practically all of them could spin...er, what's it called? The spins, I mean. Pirouettes? Anyway they had the word 'perfect' written all over them. I bet they are going to turn pro - they have a passion for the sport, they do.

Michelle Wie, teen golfer, has just turned pro on her sixteenth birthday (or was it fifteenth?) Anyway, she used her birthday to launch her career, but I heard that she was disqualified halfway through the Samsung World Championship because of...I forgot what.

Oh, I'm sorry have digressed. So, as I was saying, those prodigies...they are sure to make it far. Like the girl in Ice Princess!

Signing off now!

Aaaaargh! My feet still hurts!!!

Waah, my feet so pain!

Elissa here, Elle's practicing her piano at home and will be writting in later, I suppose. Yesterday was nice, enjoying myself at the ice rink, skating like a pro (as if). But really it was still very nice, despite the skating boots being A LITTLE too tight, my pants too loose and the ice rink being too cold, worse still I had to travel a long distance from Jurong all the way home.

Now my feet's pain and I can hardly even stand, but at least I'm not as worse of as my Sis who seems to be doing the a-go-go dance.(She lar, want to be superwoman, ice-skate for more than three hours!)

I may sound like the whole outing to the ice rink in Jurong was a total disaster, but it really was not that bad. After all, there was a birthday celebration held for one of the skaters there and fake snowflakes were spinkled all over the rink. We also got a discount to entering the ice rink to ice-skate for an unlimited period of time

I know that I'm complaining a lot, anad may sound a little mean. But, if you do have the time, you really should go try out ice-skating. Warning, you better be ready to fall, but please do not think I'm scaring you or anything, cause even if you do fall, I'm sure that by the end of the day you will find that ice-skating is full of fun.

Remember to try out ice-skating k?

It's Snowing in Singapore

Get your skates on!

Have you tried ice-skating? Let's tell you what, we can figure-skate. Ice-skating is a very complex yet graceful sport; it does not challenge you only physically but also mentally. It is something that givesutmost pleasure and I assure you, the results will be very satisfying.

HA HA HA!!! Do you seriously believe this crap?! We can barely move our legs on the ice. Well, that's true for Elle anyway. Well, at least Elissa can skate better that Elle and we are going to Fuji Ice Skating Rink later this morning.

Ah, Elissa is looking for something to wear for ice-skating, so it's Elle talking here. Sigh...I have to work harder if I wanna skate as well as Elissa...this will be her fifth time at the rink, while it's only my second.

PLEASE, pls, pls post a comment! But let us warn you first:
We will NOT respond or reply to any comments.
Any offending comments will be removed from the site immediately.
That said, happy blogging!

Aloha!

Grr...I am TOTALLY not in a good mood today. I have to go to a certain D's house on Saturday to do a script for the class graduation play. See, her party starts at four and I'm supposed to go at two to write the script. Thing is, people that I don't like are going to be there. AND my sorces tell me they are going to give me a hard time.

WHAT AM I GOING TO DO??? I have already bought D's present but man, no way am I going to give it to her. She has planned to bully me at the party, so why sould I go and give her the gift? Anyway, those people at the party...they all have conflicting personalities with me. What I'm trying to say is...those people derive fun from uh, you know...dirty jokes.

I'm currently at my best friend and co-owner of this blog, Elissa's house. We are still struggling with our French, but at least it's getting better.

I don't know about you, but I juz can't summon an ounce of interest for anime. I mean, WHAT is so fascinating about Japanese cartoon? Neither do I like comics, which are merely some exaggerated drawings. Forgive me, but I prefer books with no graphics. Or nice graphics, as in photos of real people, not some caricatures.

Speaking of books, what's your favourite? I love the Harry Potter series, Alex Rider series, and ALL of Dan Brown's books. And anyone heard of Kazuo Ishiguro? Anyway, there's one book called 'The Remains of the Day' that I really like and I would definitely recommend it.

Ciao,

Japanese Anime =)

Hihi

Today's wednesday and yet another day that I can enjoy myself with my best friend and co-owner of this blog site,Elle. Talking about differences between us, there is a big difference in our preferences of some stuff, and that is of course, ANIME. I love anime a lot, well i can't say the same 4 Elle.

Anime, its something i enjoy very much ( at least it is much better then the gu dai shows my Mum always watches)


Heard of TSUBASA? I like that for its drawing and well vibrant colours, especialy the theme song, I love it!!!! I'm also collecting comic books and there are all kinds of them, but I dun really think that some of them are really suitable, after all some of the comic books are written only on, u noe wat.Well, we dun really noe wat's on the illustrater's mind -_-". So please choose wisely if you wan to purchase comic books or anime, cause you might not get something really pleasant. KK, need to go, cya, bb.


Hahahahaha,
Elissa (dun mind me, I siao wan)

Bonjour!

We are new to blogging, so please just cut us some slack if you think our blog looks atrocious.

This week's wonderful - it's PSLE marking week, so we get to stay home and do whatever we like. Like starting a blog.

Life has been terrible for us this year, and we are so totally not grateful for the scoldings that we are constantly bombarded with!!!!!! You see, it's totally unfair for the teachers to vent their frustrations on us just because THEY are at the end of their tether. If you think we're talking rubbish, let us tell you this: you don't know what it's like to be on the receiving end of teachers' wrath.

But please, don't get us wrong - not all teachers are as awful as we have portrayed them in the previous paragraph. Anyway, the purpose of this blog is NOT to vent our anger on teachers coz some of them are really understanding and cool=)

Enough about teachers now- let's talk about something different.

French. What comes to your mind when you think of the word? French kiss? French food? Fashion? The most beautiful language?

Well, we're learning their language, and, man, it's SO difficult!!! We've just tried the CD-ROM but it's juz not much of a help. How Denise Keller can speak THREE languages - English, French and German - we can't fathom. Well, practice makes perfect. Doesn't it?

Au revoir!
