Save the sea kittens?!?!

Fish: The Kittens of the Sea
Okay i totally don't get this PETA campaign (above). save the sea kittens???? Fair enough, we save cats but fishes, debatable but rebranding fishes as sea kittens??? fish is fish, cats are cats, catfish is catfish.

i cannot tell what they are campaigning for when i saw the website can. it trivialises the cause if anything.

yesterday i felt so old, i (didn't) felt i could die

Maybe it's not drinking anymore, maybe it's just age catching up. Christmas has been duller, but i'm not complaining, just contemplating.

Christmas eve 2003: Min came over, we wrapped presents and watched Pirates of the Carribean. Meanwhile, someone was at Zouk partying. haha

Christmas eve 2004: I met a v.good friend (used to be) and we went to check out the mass at Novena Catholic Church. twas fun and it was my first time stepping into SPH newsroom, was buzzed in by him.

Christmas eve 2005: Homeclub, that's when it started. haha. the obsession with the place then. not drunk, just high on the music and a rainbow coloured skirt.haha

Christmas eve 2006: Flat out high after "Loser Party" at v.good friend's place. Fried Chicken, loads of wine and some beyonce later, Homeclub. Flat out high and can't remember after after.

Christmas eve 2007: Just went out for a movie. (plateau approaching)

Christmas eve 2008: At home, reading nytimes online and watching ANTM.

Certified boring.

"You fucked the suburbs out of me"

The Party's Crashing Us Now, Of Montreal.

"You sex me so good. Like upgrade from HDB to condo like that."


"Beware ! I bear more grudges than lonely high court judges."

The More You Ignore Me, The Closer I Get, Morrissey


Well, if you are in Singapore, most definitely, the AG and high court judges will be watching u especially if you are an opposition politician or WSJ. yes, they bear a lot of grudges, don't believe me, ask the legal team representing Wall St Journal

Namesake

The Associated Press reported:

< CHRISTIANSTED, U.S. Virgin Islands- Hurricane Omar weakened Thursday as it quickly moved away from the Caribbean through the northern Leeward Islands without causing major damage.

The powerful core of the storm, with the most intense winds, passed overnight between St. Martin and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands, said Lixion Avila, a hurricane specialist with the U.S. National Hurricane Center.

"It could have been worse," Avila said. "They were very, very lucky."

....Omar knocked down trees, caused some flooding and minor mudslides but there were no immediate reports of deaths or major damage in the U.S. Virgin Islands, said Mark Walters, director of the disaster management agency for the U.S. Caribbean territory.

The nearby British Virgin Islands also emerged largely unscathed, said Deputy Gov. Inez Archibald, noting there was little damage beyond some mudslides and scattered debris.

"We did reasonably well actually," Inez told The Associated Press. "We did not get what we expected." >



"It could have been worse," Rachxf says. "I was very, very lucky."

"I did not get what I expected."

haha.

I had some dreams,
They were clouds in my coffee
Clouds in my coffee, and clouds in my coffee.
