My Love for FOOD!
I'm really happy with where I am now, though the icing for the icing on the cake would be seeing Oprah in her Chicago studio one day, spend every day with my BFFs, go crazy in some A&F shop, camwhore crazy with a personal Apple, and fly to fiji and get that sun-kissed look we all love! Oh yes, add in having Chris Brown concert tickets - Have you noticed the way your heart melts whenever he smiles?!?!? And to boys out there, he's not gay. He can dance!

'The Noose' Is Da News Yo!
Ah yes, fellow Singaporeans, let's rejoice! SINGAPORE DOES HAVE TALENT! We have FINALLY lived up to our lack-of-whyfors 'city of opportunities' motto. And it's all thanks to the latest comedy programme, 'The Noose' - fronted by the riotously 'funny' Gurmit Singh and Michelle Chong as newscasters Roy Terse and Adrianna Wow together with Chua Enlai and Alaric Tay as roving reporters.
And for those who have no inkling of what The Noose is about, I'm disappointed in you! Come on, in times like these, we need to garner the local support - regardless of race, language or religion - to achieve happiness, prosperity and progress for our TELEVISION PROGRAMMES!
We have to STOP revolting fake unrealistic productions such as 'My Sassy Neighbour' and 'First Moms' from showing on TV Mobile. I do not need such distasteful sitcoms to add to my crankiness while on the bus. SHOO OF TV MOBILE!
The Noose is an irreverent, hilarious spoof of the news - with Michelle Chong tickling your funny bone with her various can-do accents, Gurmit being a gay weatherman, and En Lai with his fake accent - boy oh boy, finally I have something to look forward to in Channel 5 every Sunday!
However, I am very disheartened by comments made by our 'creative' Singaporeans. In the papers, they criticised The Noose for unoriginality and shortage of wit, as well as the lack of supporters and viewer rating. Instead of supporting The Noose, we celebrate the creations of Police and Thief, My Sassy Neighbour, Frontline, etc.. - which are really, a reflection of the lustre we terribly lack in the media industry. Are we approbative of such auntie-gossip, singlish, kaypohness, kiasuisms, and what not shown in these 'sitcoms'? I understand the need for inculcating 'Singaporean Values or Culture', but it really becomes utterly cliche and cheesy. Phua Chu Kang was enough.
Okay, and we see too much of Gurmit Singh too.
The Noose should be supported! We are making use of the up and coming Singaporean humour! Let's show the world we can have our cake and eat it too - let's show them ang moh producers we do not need recorded audience laughter to stimulate happiness in our bored tv audiences!!!
