*160 - summer



Gross face, I know, but I like the happy background.

(And to xY: You must be our greatest fan! I can't believe you actually notice when the site's down. I'm not sure why though, but it should be up by tonight :D )


[edit: later]

Ouch, just ate a very very full teochew dinner.

Anyway, what I want to say is:

The other day during lunch, I had the faintest urge to watch TV. After struggling to switch the TV on (which I accomplished!) and after that, to change the channel, I gave up because I couldn't figure out how to work the remote controls. I think I pressed a couple of wrong buttons, which made the screen turn into a screenful of static.

Omg I think I'm less "TV-savvy" than my Mummy, who even knows how to operate the DVD player by herself!! Yes, I'm such a nerd. And it's a little strange, because I'm sure I have in recent times managed to operate the TV. Hmm. I used to watch TV quite a lot when I was a kid, but I'm not sure what happened along the way. I guess I got hooked to the computer instead.

Anyway speaking of TV, I just caught a little segment of the National Day message. The camera was panning the audience and zoomed in on Lee Kuan Yew and the people beside him. Everyone was listening intently and was pretty much motionless, that is, until LKY looked down, lifted his sleeve, and checked his watch. Whereupon the camera cut straightaway back to PM Lee.

Hehehe. Just found that rather amusing :D


(And to Yock - I google searched 'alto clef' and I've never seen that before! Hahaha. I used to play piano in primary school, I think I've forgetten everything.

I shall stick to treble clefs, they are delightfully swirly & cute :D )
