Hyperlinks to Memories.

It finally rained. Much to everyone's relief I guess. Yes, I heard it all, the complains bout the recent heat waves. Now that I am home on a rainy saturday afternoon, whats better than taking a nap right? ha ha.

I decided to compile a list of my all-time favourite tracks by local acts (ie. singapore homegrown bands). Music is like hyperlinks to your blog entries, listening a song will remind u a particular piece of memory. For me i glad they shared my depressing times by expressing my feelings in the songs. Of cuz there are also happy ones. Somehow those with local flavours feel closest to my heart. I know u can hardly find their albums in the stores anymore. So I don't think they'll mind me sharing their tracks online for more ears to appreciate and for them to relive their glory days. (Incidentally, the economics essay i wrote was titled "economics of file sharing" =b). I've made the tracks into .wma format with lower bit rate cuz I don't have much webspace. Download, unzip, listen, and tell me your opinions? So here are the tracks in no particular order....


Sherene's Closet - Over
Sherene's Closet - Infatuation
Astreal - Stay Awake
Astreal - Wait
Concave Scream - Driven
Lizard's Convention - Wooden Heart
Lum May Yee - My One And Only
Padres - November 91
Padres - Water
Stoned Revivals - Goodil
Stoned Revivals - Stone Alleycat

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too...

Saturday Afternoon Routine.

I just got back from the Saturday tuition sessions. It has been almost 5 months since I started.I have two classes of primary school children, P4 and P3, taking Maths and Science, and English, respectively. It has become a Saturday routine. A energy-draining activity. It is somehow different from giving volunteering tuition. When you are paid, the responsibility seems greater. And if you ain't doing a good job, someone else is readily available to take up yours. The fact that I really need that money, I have to put in more effort. Some students have left, and some have joined. I'm not sure whether they left cuz they think I ain't good 'nuff for them. But there are some who seem really happy and appreciative to have me around. On my first lesson, I set the ground rules for my classes. I told them my expectations on their behavior. On boy, how naive I was. They are only nine or ten, they don't understand the significance of those rules. After a couple of lessons with ...
