Usually, I don't take much interest in politics, but this year's US presidential elections is rather interesting. From the looks of it, it may be either a black president or a female president, and either way I think it's great.
Earlier today, I was watching TRL (that's Total Request Live, for you people who've never come across MTV), and they showed this interview of 50 Cent. Usually I wouldn't pay much attention, since I'm not really a big fan of hip-hop or anything. But this interview was about him talking about who he's voting for. I can't really remember it word for word, but the gist of it is there. And so here we go:
50 Cent: I'm voting for Hilary.
Interviewer: Why is that?
50 Cent: I think she's going to do a good job.
(Interview goes on. I forgot the segment here, but it's not the most important bit.)
...
Interviewer: Thank you, Mr Cent, for agreeing to this interview. (Mr Cent?
Mr Cent???)
50 Cent: I don't think America is ready for a black president yet. I think they might kill him.

Hahahahaha... Most entertaining bit of TV I've had in a while.

People can really let you down sometimes.
I don't want to play mind games, I don't want to bother with logic traps, I seriously don't want to care. I am at this point whereby I cannot afford to compromise anymore. If I can try my best to see things from your perspective, why can't you try to see things my way for once?
Sometimes I wonder how I can put up with certain things, or certain people for so long. Time and again, I tell myself not to come into contact with so-and-so, because he is a jerk who has absolutely no respect for my feelings. But somehow I will just forget. Maybe forgive. Sometimes, it's hard to make a distinction. On account of some mutual friends, I think, "Never mind, it won't happen again, " even though I can see it coming. So we come into contact again. We more or less get along. Until he hurts my feelings again. I openly show my anger, but the hurt that I feel is something that gradually creeps up later on. And then I'll just feel really upset.
Just to clear the confusion a little, the three paragraphs are seperate entities, entailing different stories altogether.

Finally! After months of waiting, I'm at long last able to blog again! Time to blow off the virtual dust that's been settling here, and dive straight into business!
Naturally, I'd like to start things with: HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR TO ALL!!! Or, I could say, "Joyeux Nouvel An Lunaire," except I'd do a really bad job at pronouncing it. I'm learning French in school now, and it's just so interesting and headache-inducing at the same time.
Pictures!

Went over to my aunt's place at JB yesterday. From left: Amy (my sister), Stephanie (my cousin), Kelly (my cousin) and me. With that hair, Kelly kind of resembles the lead actress from "Coffee Prince", which I haven't had the chance to watch. Is the VCD out yet?

Me, Grandma and Amy. I'm so happy now that my braces are finally finally off!
And some overdue pictures:

CK's 19TH birthday party was held at my place, organised by moi, of course. Check out the Doraemon cake!

The cake-cutting ceremony. This would have been a much nicer picture sans Gracelyn. Haha... Just kidding!

CK and me (and a headless Gracelyn in the background.)

Everybody! Top row from left: Vanessa, Evelyn, Silas, Dahong, Gracelyn, Danny, Zoe. Bottom row from left: Me, CK, Zhen Bin. Check out their two-toned foreheads! That's what you get when you don't use sunblock/sunscreen! And my hair used to be so long! I miss it so much!
Ok that's it for now! I've got a long day tomorrow. Mahjong and card games at CK's house with some friends. Au revoir, everyone, and a bientot!
