Women Rulez!!!!
Dear Ex-Husband:
Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It's true that you and I have been married for seven years, although a good man is a far cry from what you've been.
I watch my soaps so much because they drown out your constant whining and griping. Too bad that doesn't work.
I DID notice when you got a hair cut last week, but the first thing that came to my mind was 'You look just like a girl!' Since my mother raised me not to say anything if you can't say something nice, I didn't comment.
And when you cooked my favorite meal, you must have gotten me confused with MY SISTER, because I stopped eating pork seven years ago!
About those new silk boxers: I turned away from you because the $49.99 price tag was still on them, and I prayed that it was a coincidence that MY SISTER had just borrowed fifty dollars from me that morning.
After all of this, I still loved you and felt that we could work it out. So when I hit the lotto for ten million dollars, I quit my job and bought us two tickets to Jamaica. But when I got home you were gone. Everything happens for a reason, I guess.
I hope you have the fulfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer said that the letter you wrote
ensures you won't get a dime from me. So take care.
Signed,
Your Ex-Wife, Rich As Hell and Free!
P.S. I don't know if I ever told you this, but my sister Carla was born Carl. I hope that's not a problem.

Cancerous FOODS and PRODUCTS --- FYI
SATAY LOVERS (BARBECUE)
If you all eat Satay, don't ever forget to eat the cucumber, because eating Satay together with carbon after barbequing can cause cancer. But we have a cure for that... Cucumber should be eaten after we eat the Satay because Satay has carcinogen (a cancer causing element) but cucumber is anti-carcinogenic. So don't forget to eat the cucumber the next time you have Satay's.
PRAWNS (SUGPO) & VIT C
DO NOT eat shrimp / prawn if you have just taken VITAMIN C pills!!
This will cause you to DIE in ARSENIC (As) toxication within HOURS!!
PORK AWARENESS
Try this and see whether the pork you bought has worms. There goes with your "Bak Kut Teh" for those who love it. Most men love to eat this so watch out before it's too late. If you pour Coke (yes, the soda) on a slab of pork, wait a little while, you will SEE WORMS crawl out of it. A message from the Health Corporation of Singapore about the bad effects of pork consumption. Pig's bodies contain MANY TOXINS, WORM and LATENT DISEASES.
Although some of these infestations are harboured in other animals, modern veterinarians say that pigs are far MORE PREDISPOSED to these illnesses than other animals. This could be because PIGS like to SCAVENGE and will eat ANY kind of food, INCLUDING dead insects, worms, rotting carcasses, excreta including their own, garbage, and other pigs. INFLUENZA (flu) is one of the MOST famous illnesses which pigs share with humans. This illness is harboured in the LUNGS of pigs during the summer months and tends to affect pigs and human in the cooler months.
Sausage contains bits of pigs' lungs, so those who EAT pork sausage tend to SUFFER MORE during EPIDEMICS of INFLUENZA. Pig meat contains EXCESSIVE quantities of HISTAMINE and IMIDAZOLE compounds, which can lead to ITCHING and INFLAMMATION; GROWTH HORMONE which PROMOTES INFLAMMATION and growth; sulphur containing mesenchymal mucus which leads to SWELLING and deposits of MUCUS in tendons and cartilage, resulting in ATHRITIS, RHEUMATISM, etc.
Sulphur helps cause FIRM human tendons and ligaments to be replaced by the pig's soft mesenchymal tissues, and degeneration of human cartilage.
Eating pork can also lead to GALLSTONES and OBESITY, probably due to its HIGH CHOLESTEROL and SATURATED FAT content. The pig is the MAIN CARRIER of the TAENIE SOLIUM WORM, which is found in its flesh. These tapeworms are found in human intestines with greater frequency in nations where pigs are eaten. This type of tapeworm can pass through the intestines and affect many other organs, and is incurable once it reaches beyond a certain stage. One in six people in the US and Canada has RICHINOSIS from eating trichina worms, which are found in pork.
Many people have NO SYMPTOMS to warm them of this, and when they do, they resemble symptoms of many other illnesses. These worms are NOT noticed during meat inspections.
SHAMPOO
Cancer-causing substance in shampoos. Go home and check your shampoo. Change before it's too late... Check the ingredients listed on your shampoo bottle, and see they have a substance by the name of Sodium Laureth Sulfate, or simply SLS. This substance is found in most shampoos; manufacturers use it because it produces a lot of foam and it is cheap. BUT the fact is, SLS is used to scrub garage floors, and it is very strong!!! It is also proven that it can cause cancer in the long run, and this is no joke. Shampoos that contains SLS: Vo5, Palmolive, Paul Mitchell, L'Oreal, the new Hemp Shampoo from Body Shop etc. contain this substance.
The first ingredient listed (which means it is the single most prevalent ingredient) in Clairol's Herbal Essences is Sodium Laureth Sulfate. Therefore, I called one company, and I told them their product contains a substance that will cause people to have cancer. They said, Yeah we knew about it but there is nothing we can do about it because we need that substance to produce foam. By the way Colgate toothpaste also contains the same substance to produce the "bubbles". They said they are going to send me some information.
Research has shown that in the 1980s, the chance of getting cancer is 1 out of 8000 and now, in the 1990s, the chances of getting cancer is 1 out of 3, which is very serious. Therefore, I hope that you will take this seriously and pass this on to all the people you know, and hopefully, we can stop "giving" ourselves cancer-causing agents.
INSTANT NOODLES
Dear instant noodle lovers,
Make sure you break for at least 3 days after one session of instant noodles before you eat your next packet! Please read the info shared to me by a doctor. My family stopped eating instant noodles more than 5 years ago after hearing about the wax coating the noodles - the wax is not just in the Styrofoam containers but it coats the noodles. This is why the instant noodles do not stick to each other when cooking.
If one were to examine the ordinary Chinese yellow noodles in the market, one will notice that, in their uncooked state the noodles are oily. This layer of oil prevents the noodles from sticking together.
Wanton noodles in their uncooked state have been dusted with flour to prevent them sticking together. When the hawker cooks the noodles, notice he cooks them in hot water and then rinses them in cold water before cooking them in hot water again. This process is repeated several times before the noodles are ready to be served. The cooking and rinsing process prevents noodles from sticking together.
The hawker then "lowers the noodles in oil and sauce to prevent the noodles from sticking if they are to be served dry. Cooking instructions for spaghetti require oil or butter to be added in the water when boiling the spaghetti to prevent the pasta from sticking together. Otherwise, one gets a big clump of spaghetti!
There was an SBC (now TCS) actor some years ago, who at a busy time of his career had no time to cook, resorted to eating instant noodles everyday. He got cancer later on. His doctor told him about the wax in instant noodles. The doctor told him that our body will need up to 2 days to clear the wax. There was also an SIA steward who after moving out from his mother's house into his own house, did not cook but ate instant noodles almost every meal. He had cancer, and has since died from it.
Nowadays the instant noodles are referred as " cancer noodles ".

Yah, I have been sooo inlove alwight!
HAVE YOU EVER? (Brandy)
- (Chorus:)
Have you ever loved somebody so much
It makes you cry?
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night?
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right?
Have you ever? - Have you ever?
- Have you ever been in love
Been in love so bad
You'd do anything
To make them understand?
Have you ever had someone
Steal your heart away?
You'd give anything
To make them feel the same?
Have you ever searched for words
To get you in their heart
But you don't know what to say
And you don't know where to start? - (Repeat chorus)
- Have you ever found the one
You've dreamed of all your life?
You'd do just about anything
To look into their eyes?
Have you fin'ly found the one - You've given your heart to
Only to find that one
Won't give their heart to you?
Have you ever closed your eyes and
Dreamed that they were there - And all you can do is wait
For that day when they will care? - (Repeat chorus)
- (Bridge:)
What do I gotta do to get you in my arms, baby?
What do I gotta say to get to your heart
To make you understand
How I need you next to me?
Gotta get you in my world
'Cause, baby, I can't sleep - (Repeat chorus twice)
- Have u ever
featherbrained self conversation
I feel empty inside and to the innermost of my being.
I am just as disturbed as anybody else.
Seeking for refuge of the only love.
Hating for not reaching or getting close to them.
Letting blame covers and damnation of self starts.
Still, in the long pace of my existence.
I will carry these thoughts and ponder.
To cease my pity on my own reflection .
Though sounding so distressful.
I'll carry on.
Even with doubt to freely move.
I need comfort for my wretched mind to transpire.
How will I, with no you.
i'm one hell of a complication...
You know why I hate the world today? 'Coz everything is out of control.
Every people, living and non-living things, even technologies.
And there are lots of reasons to choose from.
So many of it that I can't find ways to stop it.
I hate the world 'coz I can't be in two places at the same time.
I hate the world 'coz there's nothing to think about but our problems and other people's.
I hate the world 'coz nothing lasts.
I hate the world 'coz I can't have the things that I desire most.
I hate the world 'coz you'll never know when it'll end.
I hate the world' coz I can't move myself without someone else's shadows.
I hate the world 'coz there's so many things to depend on.
I hate the world 'coz it's hard to be with the people we love and long.
I hate the world 'coz I hate myself.
Or maybe I am just too paranoid to think that my blames are for the world to carry.
Or maybe I am just too scared to accept reality.
Or maybe I am out of my hand to think of better things than my own afflictions.
Or maybe I am nothing but just someone trying to outcry my inner non-sense.
Or maybe I am just hating everything just because...

"A banana a day keeps the doctor away!"
Facts:
Bananas contain three natural sugars
- sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber.
A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.
Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes.
Banana's Benefits on common illness and conditions:
PMS
Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

Banana's Benefits on common illness and conditions:
Depression
According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.
PMS
Anemia
High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.
Blood Pressure
This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Covered with Shame
If I could only shrink myself at this very moment, I should be in vain.
If I could only let myself vanish from this improbable life, I should be gone with emptiness.
If I could only lecture this forsaken mind, I should be rummaging all thoughts.
If I could only underpin my moment of reflection, I should be absurdly tear-jerking.
If I could only kill my entity, I should be dripping in distress.
If I could do all these things in one time, I should be hailed by you.

Around the Corner i Have a Friend
Around the corner i have a friend.In this great city that has no end.
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,
And before i know it, a year is gone.
And i never see my old friends face.
For life is a swift and terrible race,
He knows i like him just as well.
As in the days when i rang his bell,
And he rang mine if we were younger then.
And now we are busy tired men,
Tired of playing a foolish game,
Tired of trying to make a name,
"Tomorrow" i say "i will call on Jim".
Just to show that i'm thinking of him.
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.
Around the corner! - yet miles away,
"Here's a telegram sir " "Jim died today".
And that's what we get and deserve in the end
Around the corner a vanished friend.

The Lettermen "Live in CDO"
Thanks to the cdokay people who gave me an opportunity to be there. Well, as part of cdokay, i was tasked to write an article about the concert and my experience of being there.
The Lettermen were very famous back in the late 1960's, i don't know how you could imagine me going there with all those oldies. But guess what, i was not the only 23-year old audience witnessing the show, there were more than many from what i have expected. Though their music does really aged like forever but it was unexpectedly beautiful. All the love songs touched my heart and flew me to the air of madness. If you were there, i'm sure you'd be feeling the same way.
There was one quote from Tony Butala, the only original member of the group, he said that "Love songs never really get out of style". And i definitely agree. That is why their music never ceases to stay behind. Their music transcends all language barriers and displays variety of musical styles that everyone can enjoy. Their ballads know no boundaries.
It touches hearts of the young and old. I guess we don't really need to judge music by its time, but by it's melody, lyrics and notes. Frankly, i did enjoy the show. It was tremendously great for a first time experience.

Mixed Emotions
Staring at the window glass: bashing my head unto it, running through it, breaking it into pieces.
Made me wonder how crazy these affects me. My melodramatic life sequence.
I made a promise to myself that in-time I will be able to cope up. Actually, I did. But, you see.. I've been so preoccupied by mini sentiments. And it's getting in between my coping-up moments.
Stopping time. My last resort. No sense.
And as i beckon on the fading shadow that mirrors my heartbeat, I sank in distress.
I apprehend.
In time, I will see the clear vision of it. To wake my solitary temperament.

Sudden Relief of the Tormented
These children are abandoned by their families, but they are equally blessed through several donations, foundations and charities. All among you who contributed to their needs deserves a huge THANK yOU from the bottom -est of these destitute's hearts.

A Splinter that caught my Eye
Again, I felt the same turmoil in the core of my slow pacing brain.
Darn, it's been five hours and I am still way under my quota. I am really working my (flat)ass out here but you see, the more I intend to work fast, the more I get to slow down. I've been staring at my pc for way too damn long now, and I am still distressed on finishing my listings. It bugs me that i find myself getting bored and bummed out. Seems to me, my booty's givin' up so early.
I am soooo stressed out already that..I feel like jumping over the bridge and stay under water.
Right now, my eyes are going down, down, down, down, down....
I better get that coffee over the counter and...let it conk my brain to stay on gaurd..
Cheerio!!!!
