MAC cessorize us

ME + Jess + Shopping = DISASTER for our pockets

when your mum loves money more than anything

My mum is on the verge on declaring me bankrupt. She has kindly dug out all the credit card bills and demanded that I settle them without eating into my bank reserves. Her 3 options are

1) Transfer every single cent remaining in my account to her so that I have no $$ to spend. I still have to return her the credit card money =(
2) Survive on $50 a MONTH until I settle my debts. She has obviously been stuck in her office for too long. She still thinks it's 10 years ago.
3) Rob, borrow whatever and juz dig out $XXXX.

So from now on, friends who love me shall only ask me out to lunch/dinner at hawker centres. Only eat free dinners at home and no more suppers. The obvious goes to shopping. I shall juz bury myself in dull literature readings.

I need a sugar daddy =)

phelps vs bolt

As much as I'm crazy and delighted over Michael Phelp's 8 gold victory, I'm also very much blown away by Usain Bolt. It's true that no one has ever won 8 gold medals at a single Olympics Game, not to mention 7 WR and 1 OR. But how tough is it to break the WR for both 100m and 200m sprint? Prior to this games, Phelps held 4 of the 5 WR for the individual events and the one he missed, he still failed to break but he still won it with an OR. The remaining 3 relay medals were contributions from his team and not his sole effort. Yes Bolt entered with also 100m WR under his belt but 200m WR? Michael Johnson was a legend of his time and his 200m WR of 19.32 sec was way faster than Bolt's PB of 19.6+ sec. For Bolt to break a 12 year WR is almost impossible.

And for Jacques Rogge to say that Bolt is a showboat and lacks sportmanship etc, BOO! to him. How many people were glued to their TV juz to watch his race? Obviously they LOVE him =)

dulls of year 4

A night out with everything except SCHOOL =) Top it with nice food, good company and OLYMPICS. I actually feel that a semester apart actually brought us closer together.

We shall wait for Jess's ULTIMATE plan of uniting the whole of BIE to materialize. I'm happy as of now.

a shoes affair

Sprinting in heels (min. 9cm) and the winner gets S$2800. Russians and their shoes.

How many shades of brown shoes does a guy need?

Enough is never enough. My mum used to nag on the number of shoes I own. Now she simply wears them.

determination

Guess which athlete did this at the Olympics and broke the World Record?

greatest races of all

If you're not really into the Olympics, there are 2 MUST WATCH races which everyone will be talking about. One reflects how much the tiniest difference matters while the other shows pure dominance. Both are legends in their arena. I don't think there have been that many WR broken in any of the past games. Incredible =) Comparing how SG is willing to pay their athletes S$1.5 million for 1 gold medal whereas US is only paying Phelps US$1 million for 7 or more gold medals.

Men's 100m Butterfly - Flying Fish Michael Phelps
Men's 100m - Lightning Bolt

Fedex still walks away from this games with a gold medal.

weeee =)
