The wedding march
Lalala...
My god-sis got engagement ring!
I am happy for her... yes, I think the bf is a little too controlling, but on the other hand, it's no mean feat, to be able to get her to listen to someone and be a guai girl girl... so that scores him bonus points! Lol... most importantly, as long as he loves her, takes good care of her, and always has her interest at heart, all else doesn't matter.
Congrats, dearie... I am happy you found your happiness...
Ok... erm... that was a bit of mushiness on my part...
This week's issue of 8 Days has this segment about comparisons of certain stuff which happened in 1990, and that of 2005.
For example, under 'Toy Boys', it says:
1990: New Kids on the Block - girls go crazy over five teenagers prancing around without their shirts on looking really gay.
2005: II Divo - girls go crazy over four grown men standing around in suits looking really gay.
I like what they said about 'American Life':
1990: George HW goes to war with Iraq over oil
2005: George W Bush goes to war with Iraq over oil
And there's also 'American Idiot':
1990: America's Funniest Home Videos is launched, showcasing the best of American family blunders.
2005: Hurricane Karrina is unleashed, showcasing the worst of American political blunders at home.
Ya ok, so that's Political Science entertainment for you.
I've Christmas shopping to do, not much though... as the years go by, you don't need to buy so many presents coz firstly, the number of good-friends-who-deserve-gifts go down, and second, I don't meet up with those close friends much to celebrate christmas now. Used to have an annual Christmas gathering of close friends at my place... there'll be roast chicken and stuff like that... and it was all fun... but I suppose it's like, after a while, we all get busy, especially with many of us now working and having difficulty matching schedules, and end up chatting more over MSN... not sure if that is good or not. I used to have to write more than 50 cards to distribute to friends, but now it's not necessary coz snail mail is no longer in fashion, and also there's only a small group I'll bothering writing cards for. I must admit though, I miss receiving good old Christmas cards, compared to the sms you get after midnight that goes 'Merry Christmas', together with some sms tree design.
Oh, by the way, if anyone bothers, there's some stuff I've got on my Christmas wish-list:
1) HMV voucher --- a $100 one should be enough I guess.
2) Care Bears! --- I saw this lot in Carrefour today; when you hold the Care Bear's paws, it'll sing for you! And the voice is just sooooo adorable! I want!
3) Anklet ---- I've been wanting to get a nice silver chain anklet...
4) Hair Salon voucher --- it'll be nice to be able to walk into a salon and get highlights... the last time I stepped into a salon was like... gee, more than 5 years ago, I think.
5) Rent CD
6) Eyeliner and Eyebrow pencil --- coz I'm running out and I'm eyeing the ones from Body Shop, and Bobbi Brown
I actually have more wishes... but err... we'll just leave it at that, ok?
