next craziest social thing was lunch today with sharah, which evolved into 1 hour worth of playing around in the toy stores at Tanglin Mall. can you blame us? the things were so cute. and there were Gold Label Barbie dolls. we were captivated by a lot of things. now i know where to head to everytime i feel down or pissed or sad. or missing you too much.

third craziest thing was staying up all the way till 2.30am this morning to finish up the farewell vid + curse and swear at the blardy movie maker which hanged for 4-5 times + watching Top Gear to entertain and console myself + wait for it to attach to my email. but i managed to stay awake the whole schoolday, yay(: except of course, the refusal to wake up once i'm asleep in the mrt. i just love sleeping in the mrt. sure, it's unglam. but the mrt is comfy. [okay SMRT and LTA? i'm praising the public transport system here. give me some credits, can?]

fourth craziest thing was..uhh.. doing hw/reading sch stuffs + playing the Cool Wall game + watching Top Gear episodes + blogging almost at the same time. i feel blessed to be a woman: we are so the multi-taskers. and even if we're short or blemished, we always have that dainty pair of killer heels and makeup to fall back on. i think i'm starting to sound feminist. hehh.

talking about Top Gear (which is my favourite car show only because 1. the hosts are really crappy 2. the experiments with the cars including racing in a Nissan GT-R versus bullet train across Japan 3. i like Richard Hammond, cos i think he's kinda cute cos he's short and all. hehe 4. James May's blurness 5. The Stig, the all-covered up guy in the white suit who tests the laptimes for the cars, is weird. much weirder than all the 3 hosts combined 6. i like it. it's pure entertainment)

anyway, that whole show inspired me. Jeremy Clarkson came up with this campaign to ban unnecessary or downright stupid signs like these:

like Clarkson said, if the sign wasn't put up, the car wouldn't have crashed into it.

when i saw this on Top Gear, i was speechless.

yupps. i think it's quite an interesting idea, isn't it? i mean, we always run into stupid signs that say redundant stuffs like "Beware of cars" in the carpark. so why don't we start our own stupid signs watch? that'll be cool. then we can count how many there are in this lil' happy island of Singapore.

another idea that got me riveted was the Cool Wall. in the show, the hosts used it to rank the various cars tested or featured. there's Seriously Uncool, Uncool, Cool and Sub-Zero. i feel like doing my own Cool Wall. but oh, in Seriously Uncool, i'd put a huge pic of Cristiano Ronaldo in a Real shirt. disloyalty doesn't exist in Man Utd. and ohoh, i'd put the Germany's military uniform from the 1940s on the Cool page cos i like it. the uniform only, minus the swastika. and on Sub-Zero, me! wakaka. no lah. i'd put.. uhh.. i have no idea what i'll put.
