The 10 people I tag are then to follow and write their own 15 weird things/ habits/ little known facts.
Most importantly, NO TAGBACKS

1) I absolutely HATE it when people on chat ask me "what's up" because we all know very well the answer's going be "nm". please people... save it. GET TO THE POINT.

11) When im bored at the beach i pick up a handful of sand and start trying to count the grains that are in my hands. sad i know.. but have you ever looked closely at a handful of sand? its pretty.

Ling: (being smart for once) err ching? their all in their uniform so their all wearing red?
Ching: oh right yeahh....

JOANIEE

SUMMMERRRRRR

i think its time for an update dont u think? i have so abandoned this blog. ahhaa. its been A MONTH

well basiclly my whole summer was spent in bangkok and singapore. it was AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEE. really really coooool.
i cant really compare any of the 2 because i had equally ultimate fun times. although they were both totally different kinds of holidays. :P



BANGKOK/HUAHIN:
oh.my.goddddddddddddddddddd. it was ....... HAHAH.
the first 2 nights were spent at lebua state tower which is the tallest building in thailand. my roomie was non other than AMANDUHHHHH. ahhaa. we had an awesome time. there was starbucks right below our hotel. i have no idea how many times we went there. it was atleast 3 times a day. ahaha. we even got to know the people who made out coffee!!!!. lolool.

after those 2 nights we went (BY A 4 HOUR LONG BUS RIDE) to hua hin everson resort.

it was *************&*&$(#^*^$)_@)#(_@)#(@&#(*@#$ gorgeous.
to-the-maxxxx.

dont believe me?
i think the pictures will help me explain


this is what it looks like walking in.... o.0


the room.


the outdoor bathtub/jacuzzi thingo? ahah.


the outdoor shower o.0 this took some getting used to. HAHA


toilet


OUR OWN PERSONAL PRIVATE POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.


me and amandas ultimate hangout place :D




amanda did laps here. HAHAHA

we had 4 nights here.
4 very very very wild nights. ahAHHA.
we really took advantage of our butler. (yes we had our own personal butler)
we would DEMAND things every day from a yoga mat (which we never used), DVDS, drinks, FOOD, bikes, bicycles, EVERYTHINGG. hahaha. we felt so.... powerful. soo... vip. yeahhhhh. :P

amanda: hi we'd like some DVDS.
pond (that was our butler's name): sure sure
amanda: ok the ring, dark water, hide and seek, the grudge, one missed call and the shutter.
me: (begining to break out into cold sweat)
amanda: yes and we'd like them quickly?
pond: excuse me?
amanda: chop chop?

HAHAHAHA. she was so demanding. and we only managed to watch hide and seek. reasons were
1) we were way too chicken
2) i wanted to watch dark water but nooooo. amanda made the silly excuse that "dude.. I SWIM!!!"
I know... i had to crack up at that one too. lol

so we made another call to pond and told him to bring some chick flicks. lol.

i think the nicest thing was riding around the place. it was pretty. one of the things that ticked me off was how narrow the walkway/road was. i was riding one day and a buggy was coming in the oposite direction. it was carrying this couple and i guess riding around the buggy was not an option.
i fell into the bush.
seriously the driver was more worried about the stupid rose bush than me.
not happy.

after those amazing 4 days we went back to bangkok city. yes we rode the 4 hour long bus drive again. lol
when we got back i met my parents who came for the last day to go shopping. i moved into their room because amanda went off to singapore. i felt so amandoned :(
the rest of the evening was spent getting ready for the lavish dinner at peninsula hotel with all the others. o.0
it was... very very very posh. hahaa. a 5 course meal. i was one of the 3 vegetarians and the food we had was pretty gross.

course 1:
appetizer; normal people got seafood salad and the V'S got cooked dough. BAALAHAHAHAHA.

oh the worse was yet to come...

course 2:
appetizer 2: normal people got meat on sticks and the V'S got blood flavoured jelly. (it wasnt real blood ofcourse, it just tasted like it)

course 3:
main course: normal people got steak and the V'S got asparagus and onions... -_-. i was glad it tasted decent

course 4:
desert. THANKYOUUUUUUUUU: we all got the same thing and it was orange mango flavoured shot sized jelly. lmao

course 5:
desert2: chocolate fudge cake ARTISTICLLY presented. it was so hard for me to put my fork to it because it looked so pretty. ahaha. i sulked whilst eating it. poor pretty thing.

after that it was basiclly the end. shopping (MAJOR SHOPPING) followed the next day. and then it was hello brunei.

THENNNNNN.

i spent 3 days in brunei (going to the art gallery everyday to teach kids for my service)
and then HELLO SINGAPOREEEEEEE.

singapore was equally as great. lots of time was spent with cousins. fun times fun times :P
i went to watch my first gig too which was pretty cool. nicole and victoria brought me XD

oh yeahh. which reminds me i have to give a huge shout out to victoria for entertaining me for 2 weeks :D
THANKS KIDDO.

which sucks.

CANCER

"CANCEROUS FOOD/PRODUCTS"

SATAY LOVERS: (i dont have to worry bout this one.. tehe)
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 carsinogen (a cancer causing element) but cucumber is anti-carsinogenic.

So don't forget to eat the cucumber the next time you have satays.



Prawns and Vitamin 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:
Try this and see whether the pork you bought has worms.

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, WORMS 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 haboured 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.

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.


SHAMPOOOOO: (whomagod this one was a shockerrr)
Cancer-causing substance in Shampoo. 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. (CHING WE USE THIS SHAMPOO OMGOMG)

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!

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.
Wantan 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.

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





so puhleeese. lets stop cancering ourselves.

PETA KICKS SOME ASS

YAY. i jumped when i read this.. PETA TOOK ACTION:



"PETA has taken umbrage with Jessica Simpson's T-shirt proclaiming "Real Girls Love Meat." They decided to seek the moral high ground and respond with a list of five reasons "Why only stupid girls brag about eating meat." Sciencey! Here's my personal favorite gem:

4. Meat will make you fat. All the saturated fat and cholesterol in chicken wings, pork chops, and steak eventually leads to flabby thighs and love handles. I hope the upcoming "Jessica Simpson's Intimates" line comes in plus sizes! Going vegetarian is the best way to get slim and stay that way.
Jesus! "Eating meat will make you fat." How superficial. (Ha ha! The name of this site.) But, seriously, PETA left out these other pitfalls of being a carnivore that warrant your attention. What can I say? I'm a helper:

1. Meat will cause the Lifetime channel to go off the air. Or, at the very least, cancel Army Wives.

2. Feeding your husband meat will lead him straight into the arms of another woman. Who's totally that chick at your work who you'd be friends with if only she didn't have the same purse. Bitch.

3. AIDS: It's what for dinner - if you eat meat."
-www.thesuperficial.com



YAY GO PETA.
