It's boring reading the papers everyday these days. There's nothing remotely interesting to read in it and the world seems focused on who to hand the monumental power of manhandling many countries with nearing elections. Elections. Power. Politicians. To me, that's as interesting as counting the hair on my legs. If I could have it my way, I would rather hand the rein over to our dear 'retired' Dr. Chua who performed an Internet porn recently. I can hear you say 'Wha.......?' But you see, I believe that Dr. Chua is a blind, stupid and innocent man with intelligence way behind his years and experience but I think most of us respect him in a sense that he didn't say, "He looks like me, F***s like me but I cannot say 100% that that super performer is me". He came right out and said it like it is. Now, it takes balls to do that, folks. So, if he was picked as our Government leader, at least he won't be sleeping his way through International forums or lying his ass off to us tax-payers.
And then there's the other big news every single day....the horrifying idiocy of people who are willing to blow themselves up in the belief that they are doing something worthwhile for their countrymen. Oh come on......how many already? I lost count. I just can't believe these people can't just go and.....do something really happy....like go paint their nails or something, instead of volunteering (or allow themselves to be) to be blown up. "Here, blow me up lah, I am woman and am worth nothing. I don't mind serving my country for the good of my people. Please take care of my 12 kids and tell me where to go and which button to push". Purleeezzz......
It's a complete waste of money buying the papers in the morning when there's nothing to read in there. Nothing of significance, that is. But I cannot do without the papers because of the traffic jam. Some people apply makeup in the car or eat their breakfast when stuck in the jam. My kids play their Nintendo DS's and I read my papers, drink my coffee and sometimes if I even write my book at the red lights! (Using my PDA phone...then later download to my PC, terror-leh?)
I find advertisements more interesting, frankly speaking, my personality being a little creative and all that. So, apart from the Edison Chen sex photos scandal, I got nothing to say about the news. Instead, I find my mind jiggy-ing over creative advertisements. This is one of my favorites....the Digi Prepaid Gong Xi Fa Cai ad where a man talks until he turns into 'Choy Sun Yer'
I have been doing this pose, part of Cosmic Dance (a type of yoga, I am assuming), called Stargazer pose without knowing it is called Stargazer's pose a lot in the past. You see, sometimes, I don't follow the rules and come up with my own stretches and poses. It is fun. I have on some music, nice, soothing music or just anything I can click on. Then I go with the flow, letting my hair down. Just moving to the music...and that is when I come up with the above Stargazer's pose. This pose really stretches your sides. Keep your eyes on the outstretched hand if you are keeping it pointed to the top, as if you are waving or connecting to a higher energy from the Universe. Your arms will ache a little but hey, toned arms, here you come! :-) For those who want a bigger stretch, it is safe to slowly and gently move the lifted hand towards your back...don't overdo it, listen to your body's complaints and respect it. You don't have to prove anything to anyone, reme...

But yes, Digi's ads are always creative and funny and meant for normal everyday folks like us. Not too "cheem"... Lol.
