Get No Love When They Grow Up

I remember a long, long, long, long, loooooooooo.....ng time ago when my kids were so easy to please. In order to work, all I needed to do was to switch the TV on and slide a Barney CD into it and off they go! Bless the purple dinosaur....as dumb as it is. To make things worse, it's got one of the sorriest excuse of a theme song that goes somewhere along the lines of you loving me and me loving you and we're all a big effing family or somefink. OK, fine, it was lovely and easy to teach the kids to sing. How wrong can you get, right? And then there's also Steve with his cursed green striped shirt. Actually, I didn't Steve was dumb coz he was, personally, someone who was witty and a bit of wise-crack, actually. I remember he impersonated Elvis one time. It was lost on the kids but he was a hoot to the parents! But honestly, he is either blind, sick or totally off the rockers. Blue is right there, duuuude! Right there! Her a-s is sticking right out of the sofa....oh, come on! But the kids love it, of course, coz they were way smarter than Steve. Compared to this, Blue's Clues and Barney look like humans....geniuses. This one made absolutely no sense - Teletubbies. For some reason, the producers and creators got the notion that kids love aliens and a sun with a face of a coo-ing baby on it enthralling. Teletubbies were the craziest (sh-ttiest) thing on children's TV. introducing the fat duffasses....with no brain. Believe it or not, although they said that the purple alien is actually a male, he is a cross-dresser! He loves tutus and handbags, hats and shoes!! I don't know what they were trying to convey to the kids, man. I have nothing against gays or anything but aren't we introducing something like a little too YOUNG!!?? There are many others....like Dora, Diego, Tweenies, High 5, Sound music factory, etc. Then the other day, they saw a clip of Diego on TV. And this is how the conversation went. Son 1: ....and then he's swinging very hard on the rope, his butt itches and he tries to scratch it while swinging and then he falls....(sound of oooooooooohhhhhhhhhh.....) and splat Son 2: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! That's sooooo funny. I hate Diego. He asks the stupidest questions. Son 1: Yeah yeah....and then Sonic comes into the picture and plants a bomb in his stupid bag or something. When he's looking for his binoculars, it explodes in his face. Me: Ahem. I thot he went splat. Silence. Son 2: Yeah, but he didn't die. Oh, and then Mario and Luigi comes over gives them a shrinking mushroom. Son 1: HAHAHAHAHAHA!! And then he eats so much and disappears. Me: Sigh....the love. You guys used to love Blue's Clues, Teletubbies, Tweenies, High 5, and all that so much, you know. Son 2: URGH, mom! Please!! They're so LAME!!! Lame lame lame. Stupid lame! Me: Well, I feel the need to remind you that....you....had....a BARNEY DOLL!!!!! (evil smirk) Son 1 and 2: EEEEUUUUUUUGGGHHHHHH!!!!! Mom!!!!!!! Me: Hehehehehe....

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘ reading ’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘ playing the piano ’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘ writing ’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘ playing with my kids ’; Yea...

At Camp 5, 1 Utama: Kids' Rescue Mission

The kids had a wonderfully exciting day today. Now, this is as extreme as this mother is going to get. Mommy goes Paintball, kids go mountain-climbing...I think I've fulfilled the criteria of offering my kids a fun and exciting life as a kid. :-) It was one of their friends' birthday party and they're a little bored of KidzSports...that's for BABIES, anyway, they say. So, off to Camp 5 then, says the birthday boy's mother. Camp 5 in 1 Utama is located near Neways Karaoke, for those who have never been there before. It's a neat little corner tucked up on the roof of the massive shopping complex. Anyway, the kids had tons of fun although a little apprhensive when they saw how high the 'rock' was. It's actually quite neat and if I didn't feel like throwing up whenever up on higher grounds, I would have wanted to try it as well. The highlight of this party came in the form of a rescue mission. As we all know, when one is frighte...

When will Mariah stop flashing her boobs????

Mariah used to be my favourite singer of all time because she's got this amazing gift in the form of a voice that can go ANYWHERE but why oh why is she so obssessed with flashing those enormous peaks of hers everywhere...and why is it that all her songs contain sexual innuendos....touch my body is one of them. I mean, I love the song, I love the tune, I love the beat but PLEASE , Mariah, PLEASE .....why can't you be decent for once? I clicked to watch because I like the song and spent a couple of minutes crossing my fingers that she won't be flashing anything (FAT CHANCE!) in the video. But nope....no such luck. In fact, with a song like that, she goes even further over the top. Where got people answer the door in this type of clothing wan?? Is she for real??? I mean, in this video, she calls a technician up to fix her computer and she answers the foor LIKE THAT ??? Aish.... But the video was entertaining in a sense because the lam-chue-kok (male lead) is this geeky,...
