Boys Toys
I have been blessed with an extremely big joy stick.
heh heh. okay now let's see how many dodgy google references that earns me.
The anticlimactic reality is my brother bought me a joystick while I was back home. After wrestling it out of the box, I'm sitting here perplexed, wondering what to do with it. It's lager than my toaster. The table is visibly sagging under its weight. And why on earth would I want a combination joystick/mouse/gamepad/tvremotecontrol/washingmachine anyhow?
******
0700 : watching a new day dawn over london. There's a certain magic of the moment, a fragile peace and tranquility that, in a few minutes, will be eclipsed by the everyday of big-city life.
I guess I'd better get on with my laundry, and my remaining job app.
Wonder if I can still remember how to be a cas doctor?

Host Sara for winner of mydreamd8! say it with me... Sara for winner. Let's organise a mass petition. Her list of revamped movie titles has won my vote, if not my heart.
I've also gotta applaud Janice for waking up to the reality that all is not right in lalaland. That it's not about blogging, but about popularity.
After all, the organise are pitting hugely different individuals aganst each other for the title of best personality, best looks etc.
It's unfortunately, not as easy as duelling : "may the best man win". It's so much simpler than. May the man with the bigger gun, the faster hand or, in the case of Robocop, the more accurate target acquisiting system. Here it's a mess of different personas, from uber sweet to ultrabitch. From sultry seductress to plain jane. Does singtel care? Did they even bother to learn from the wisdom gleaned from flyingchair.net and categorise - funniest blog, prettiest bird, etc?
I reckon the contestants remaining should back out in a show of solidarity and, well, mortification. And let Sara take the crown; she's probably the funniest and smartest of the lot, and hell everyone claims that's why they're supporting the leading blogs anyhow. (Oh, Janice, you're funny and smart, oh, xiaxue, you're funny and smart, oh, sel... etc)
Damn. I really need to get a life. :\
