I M Fat

My bro just came into my room to show me the shirt he bought and it made me giggle. Not because the shirt itself is funny, but mostly the fact that he actually did use to be quite fat, and probably because of McDonalds.

We spent about 10 minutes trying to get the perfect picture. I'm only supposed to put up this final picture:

But because I'm an annoying older sister, I'm gonna post the rest of the bad photos that are supposed to go into my computer's recycled bin.

"Hey! Can I take a photo of that and put it on my blog?"

"K, I was just about to ask you to take a picture so I can use it as my facebook profile pic."

"OMG I look like a retard."

"Pants too poofy! Damn gay! Can you change into jeans or something?"

"Ok" *runs upstairs*

"Your face looks weird...can you smile more naturally? Think of Borat!!"

"Okay, you look silly. Maybe you should try to act cool and NOT smile. Close your mouth. And put your hands in your pocket."

"Wah Lau like modelling liddat!"

"Just do it"

"I'm gonna post ALL the photos we just took in my blog."

"NOO. I look like a retard!!"

"Only my friends will see it what.."

Extreme Sheep LED Art

This video is nuts!! You guys SO have to watch this. I had no idea you could train sheep to do this kinda thing. It's seriously like ??!?! these people boggle the mind!

This video has to be seen to be believed. Some guys strapped LED covered vests on sheep and then had the dogs herd them in specific patterns to create ridiculous art on a hillside in Wales. They even play a game of Pong and recreate the Mona Lisa using different colored LEDs on sheep in a pen. You just have to watch it to understand. Then, I think we'll all agree, sheep: not just for sex anymore.

Thanks to Grey and Kim, who have never gotten tender with sheep. OR SO THEY SAY!

Bizkit the Sleep Walking Dog

LOL I have no idea why, but this, this is super funny! Had no idea this could happen to dogs. Love the part where he knocks himself awake on the wall then walks around pretending it didn't just happen.

Girl laughs non-stop for 12 years

Came across this curious little article on the internet...Click here for the news report!

A YOUNG girl has been laughing non-stop for 12 YEARS, it was revealed today.
The Chinese teenager cannot even talk – but has to communicate with different types of GIGGLE.

Xu Pinghui, 13, has stumped doctors ever since she started laughing when she developed a fever as an eight-month-old baby.

Her parents are now desperate to find a cure.

Mum Yang Longying said: “Ever since then she has been laughing uncontrollably.

Her dad Xu Weiming added: “There is no happiness for us. Seeing her laughing we feel even sadder than if she were crying.”

But Pinghui has been given new hope after doctors said her brain’s frontal lobe may have been damaged by the fever.

They now plan to carry out a CT scan on the teenager and hope this could provide answers to her mysterious condition.

LOL Got this in an email

This was a homework drawing assignment turned in by a little girl to her teacher:


( Here's the reply that the teacher received the following day )

Dear Mrs. Jones,

I wish to clarify that I am not now, nor have I ever been, an exotic dancer.
I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter how hectic it was last week before the blizzard hit.
I told her we sold out every single shovel we had, and then I found one more in the back room, and that several people were fighting over who would get it.
Her picture doesn't show me dancing around a pole.
It's supposed to depict me selling the last snow shovel we had at Home Depot.
From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before she turns it in.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Smith

Merry Christmas Everyone

Got OBHR?

I got about a little over 2 hours of sleep last night. Stayed up till late compiling, editing, fluffing up, printing the consulting report. Bring on my o level summary skillzz, yo! After that I couldn't fall asleep coz of all the adrenaline from completing the report. Really proud of what our group has come up with...one of the better groups I've had here in smu (excluding the 2 uninvolved foreigners who have done nothing but cause trouble). Here's a little video that we played at the end of our 9 o'clock news show thing. It's supposed to be quite funny. 3 presentations and 1 report down. 3 more reports and 2 dance performances to go! I am Superwoman! (one of my grpmates actually called me this...i think i'm supposed to be flattered.)

Stereotypes

In Heaven...
- the policemen are English
- the cooks are French
- the bankers are Swiss
- the dancers are Spanish
- the lovers are Italian
- and it's all organised by the Germans

In Hell...
- the policemen are French
- the cooks are English
- the bankers are Spanish
- the dancers are Swiss
- the lovers are German
- and it's all organised by the Italians

When you have a fat friend there are no see-saws. Only catapults.

Just watched a couple of videos of this New York standup comedian called Demitri Martin on youtube. Hilarious one-liner type jokes! According to wikipedia, Martin attended Yale and then NYU Law School on full scholarship, then dropped out a year before graduating to pursue a career in comedy. He is also known for showing his ambidextrous talents in performances. His hobbies include constructing palindromes. Intelligent, witty, too-cool-for-school, ambidextrous, geeky hobbies...my kind of guy huh. HAHA. He has to have the skinny geeky white jewish boy thing going on too.

• One of my friends has a stutter and a lot of people think that’s a bad thing, but to me that’s just like starting certain words with a drum roll. That’s not an impediment, that’s suspense! What’s he going to say? Car?? …or Carnival?? …Carburetor!?!? Man…
• “I saw a guy at a party wearing a leather jacket and I thought, ‘That is cool.’ But then I saw another guy wearing a leather vest and I thought, ‘That is not cool’. Then I figured it out: ‘Cool’ is all about leather sleeves.”
• “‘Sort of’ is such a harmless thing to say. Sort of. It’s just a filler. Sort of - it doesn’t really mean anything. But after certain things, sort of means everything. Like after ‘I love you’ or ‘You’re going to live’ or ‘It’s a boy.’”
• "I was in a store and I saw a pocket dictionary and that made me laugh because it’s such…a specific item. I don’t know that many words and I’m going out…and I have pants. Perfect!”
• “The worst time to have a heart attack is during a game of charades.”
• “About a month ago I got a cactus. A week later, it died. I was really depressed because I was like ‘Damn! I am less nurturing than a desert.’ (Ladies, that’s not true)”
• “I like fruit baskets because it gives you the ability to mail someone a piece of fruit without appearing insane. Like, if someone just mailed you an apple you’d be like ‘Huh? What the hell is this?’, but if it’s in a fruit basket you’re like ‘This is nice!.’”
• “I like clothes, you know. I dig fabrics. One of my favorite clothing patterns is camouflage. Because when you’re in the woods it makes you blend in. But when you’re not it does just the opposite. It’s like, ‘Hey, there’s an asshole.’ But when you’re in the woods you’re like, ‘Is there an asshole out here?’ They look like trees.”
• “I wanna make a jigsaw puzzle that’s 40,000 pieces. And when you finish it, it says ‘go outside.’”
• “I like parties, but I don’t like piñatas because the pinata promotes violence against flamboyant animals. Hey, there’s a donkey with some pizzazz. Let’s kick its ass. What I’m trying to say is, don’t make the same Halloween costume mistake that I did.”
• “Saying ‘I’m sorry’ is the same as saying ‘I apologize.’ Except at a funeral.”
• “Some jokes are short and elegant, like a mathematical proof or a midget in a ballgown.”
• “I used to play sports. Then I realized you can buy trophies. Now I’m good at everything.”
• “I wrapped my Christmas presents early this year, but I used the wrong paper. See, the paper I used said ‘Happy Birthday’ on it. I didn’t want to waste it so I just wrote ‘Jesus’ on it.”
• “I like sports; I like professional football. I like to get to the stadium and see the games live, you know. And I paint my chest before I leave the house. But I don’t have many friends, you know, so I usually just do punctuation and tack on a group already in progress. But sometimes it works out kind of weird because we ended up on TV one time and it said ‘JETS?’”
• A quick way to start a conversation is to say something like “What’s your favorite color?” A quick way to end a conversation is to say something like “What’s your favorite color…person?”
• I used this product called “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter.” Because sometimes when I’m having toast I like to be incredulous. “How was breakfast?” “Unbelievable”
• “Employee of the month” is a good example of how somebody can be both a winner and a loser at the same time.

WE ARE STILL ALIVE

It's been awhile since we last blogged. So here's a video for you guys, hope it makes your day. Presenting Beijing Olympics 2008, Synchronised Swimming Team Singapore!

Food Art

These are some very very interesting "food-art" pictures I found over here. I want to try creating stuff like these one of these days. The bread one especially - seems like something I could carve and leave for the next person who goes to the Cafe Cartel free bread counter.

Cute stuff

Liane bought these from HongKong! Chocolate band-aids and marshmallow pads, lol. The packaging is ultra realistic!
You can see the gauze bit in the chocolate!They even tried to make the brand name sound similar!! Sofy! The inside isn't as fantastic though, just 4 pieces of marshmallows, didn't try to make it look like a pad. I'll be super impressed if they did man, can unfold lol.And lastly, the full set of paper clips =D

Crazy Man

Anytime you need a good laugh...

Funny Birthday Song

There was a time, long time ago, when I had memorised this song.

Once a year we celebrate
With stupid hats and plastic plates
The fact that you were able to make
Another trip around the sun

And the whole clan gathers round
And gifts and laughter do abound
And we let out a joyful sound
And sing that stupid song

Happy birthday!
Now you're one year older!
Happy birthday!
Your life still isn't over!
Happy birthday!
You did not accomplish much
But you didn't die this year
I guess that's good enough

So let's drink to your fading health
And hope you don't remind yourself
The chance of finding fame and wealth
Decrease with every year

Does it feel like you're doing laps
And eating food and taking naps
And hoping that someday perhaps
Your life will hold some cheer

Happy birthday!
What have you done that matters?
Happy birthday!
You're starting to get fatter
Happy birthday!
It's downhill from now on
Try not to remind yourself
Your best years are all gone

If cryogenics were all free
Then you could live like walt disney
And live for all eternity
Inside a block of ice

But instead your time is set
This is the only life you get
And though it hasn't ended yet
Sometimes you wish it might

Happy birthday!
You wish you had more money
Happy birthday!
Your life's so sad it's funny
Happy birthday!
How much more can you take?
But your friends are hungry

So just cut the stupid cake
