Why I'll Pass on the iPod Touch

2007-09-06T13:34:00.000-07:00

Apple just announced the iPod Touch! Now we're talking, but what does this mean for the iPhone?
The main reason I was holding off on the iPhone was price. Now I'm an avid Apple fan, but first and foremost, I like to spend my money wisely. Despite a few gripes regarding the touch keypad, most of the reviews I've read about the iPhone are decent, nothing but praise. But again, price was definitely an obstacle for most, especially if they had to switch phone carriers. Somehow, opening your checkbook to pay early termination fees, $60 and up for an unlimited data plan, and over $500 for the device itself follow the links

CPF pension

2007-09-03T06:39:00.000-07:00

For ordinary Singaporeans, the annuity scheme - to put it simply - is basically a “pool fund” where the old support the old when they retire. When they pass away, their contribution to the fund is used to support the ones who are living, those 85 and above.

For government ministers, their “retirement” scheme is something from way back in the past. I am talking about the Pension Scheme for the Administrative Service (AS). (This includes prime ministers, senior ministers, speakers, ministers of state, mayors, parliamentary secretaries and political secretaries.) (link)

Yes, the pension scheme is still being implemented today

All i know is they having been talking thats all,My impression to them is sneaky loh.

Princes remember Diana as loving mother

2007-08-31T14:07:00.000-07:00

LONDON - Princess Diana should be remembered as a loving, down-to-earth mother, Prince Harry said Friday at a memorial service where a bishop urged an end to a decade of bitterness over her death and her broken marriage.
The service organized by Prince William and Prince Harry climaxed a week of recalling Diana's life and re-fighting old battles, albeit in a far lower key than the emotional tidal wave that swept over Britain following her death 10 years ago..... http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070831/ap_on_re_eu/diana_anniversary

Singapore’s healthcare system

2007-08-31T03:52:00.000-07:00

This is part one of a three-parts chronological treatise on healthcare issues over the last 2 years or so, like means-testing, non-priority for subsidised rates healthcare, wards down-grading, medical fees competition, costs of medicines and alternatives, healthcare spending, MediShield, ElderShield, implications for foreigners, PRs and Singaporeans, etc.
What will the future of healthcare be like for Singaporeans? What are some issues that we may need to be concerned with? What are your fears? What sort of healthcare system do you want? How do we compare with other countries?

Give it to me By Nelly i love this song!

2007-08-15T13:23:00.000-07:00

Give It To Me"
(feat. Nelly Furtado, Justin Timberlake)

[Timbaland]
Is it going? Is it going?
Is it going? Is it going?
I don't know.. what you're lookin' for

Oh yea boss
Come on

[Nelly Furtado]
I'm the type of girl to look you dead in the eye-eye
I'm real as it come if you don't know why I'm fly
Seen you tryna switch it up but girl you ain't that dope
I'm a Wonder Woman, let me go get my rope
I'm a supermodel and mami, si mami
Amnesty International got Bangkok to Montauk on lock
love my ass and my abs in the video called "Promiscuous"
My style is ri-dic-dic-diculous, 'diculous, 'diculous

[Nelly + (Justin)]
If you see us in the club, we'll be actin' real nice
If you see us on the floor, you'll be watchin' all night
We ain't here to hurt nobody
(So give it to me, give it to me, give it to me)
Wanna see you work your body
(So give it to me, give it to me, give it to me)

[Timbaland]
When Timbo is in the party, everybody put up they hands
I get a half a mil' for my beats, you get a couple gra-an-and
Never gonna see the day that I ain't got the upper hand
I'm respected from Californ-I-A, way down to Japan
I'm a real producer and you just a piano man
Your songs don't top the charts, I heard 'em, I'm not a fa-an-an
Niggas talkin' greasy, I'm the one that gave them they chance
Somebody need to tell them that they can't do it like I can

[Nelly + (Justin)]
If you see us in the club, we'll be actin' real nice
If you see us on the floor, you'll be watchin' all night
We ain't here to hurt nobody
(So give it to me, give it to me, give it to me)
Wanna see you work your body
(So give it to me, give it to me, give it to me)

[Justin Timberlake]
Could you speak up and stop mu-mumbling, I don't think you came in clear
When you're sittin' on the top, it's hard to hear you from way up here
I saw you tryin' to act cute on TV, "Just let me clear the air..."
We missed you on the charts last week, damn, that's right you wasn't there
If se-sexy never left, then why's everybody on my shi-it-it
Don't hate on me just because you didn't come up with it
So if you see us in the club, go on and walk the other way
Cause our run will never be over, not at least until we say

[Nelly + Justin]
If you see us in the club, we'll be actin' real nice
If you see us on the floor, you'll be watchin' all night
We ain't here to hurt nobody
(So give it to me, give it to me, give it to me)
Wanna see you work your body
(So give it to me, give it to me, give it to me)

[Nelly (Justin)]
Oh.. (Damn, improve)
Oh.. (Damn, improve)
Oh.. (Damn, improve)
Oh.. (Damn, improve)

Oh.. (Damn, improve)
Oh.. (Damn, improve)
Oh.. (Damn, improve)
Oh.. (Damn, improve)

[Nelly + Justin]
... club, we'll be actin' real nice
If you see us on the floor, you'll be watchin' all night
We ain't here to hurt nobody
(So give it to me, give it to me, give it to me)
Wanna see you work your body
(So give it to me, give it to me, give it to me)

Little Wisp Solution

2006-09-17T16:18:00.000-07:00

Don't you hate it when you fix your hair and there are tiny strands of hair sticking out? Well, there is a solution! Take a tiny mascara brush and spray hairspray on it.(A lot!) Then, brush the strand of hair back to your head and it should stick! Repeat as necessary.

My daily joke:
Title: Man complains at the marriage counselor's that he leads a dog's life
A woman told a marriage counselor that her husband's complaint that he leads a dog's life is probably well founded.
"He comes in the house with muddy feet," she said, "tracks across my clean floors, barks at nothing, growls at his food and makes himself comfortable on my best furniture."

yummy!! check this out.

Opps!

Makeup madness

2006-08-30T00:40:00.000-07:00

My daily "vise"

Before going to school, try washing your face with warm water and a mild face cleanser. First apply creamy eyeshadow. Then on top of that, apply your regular eyeshadow...this helps it stay on throughout the day. Next try applying thick blue mascara. After applying the mascara put on black eyeliner and then top it off with blue liquid eyeliner.Then put on powdered face concealer. Using a big thick brush, put on rosey pink blush. To top everything off, put on a red lipstick and g0!

Wanna GET Noticed.

2006-07-22T08:54:00.000-07:00

Wanna Get Noticed?

For all you girls who want a certain guy to fall all over you or maybe just realize that you exist! I have the perfect solution..all you have to do is go all natural, what I mean by this is to be your own fashion, for example if you happen to have an old tee/tank, go to the craft store and buy some rhinestones and glue and decorate your item! It's fun, cheap, and trendy! Fabric paint iron-ons and beads are good things to add on to boring clothes and a great way to have fun and be creative!

Sexy pants

The new style now is low-cut hip huggers...there soooo awesome! The only problem with them is you can't wear a belt, but they're tight so it doesn't really matter too much. All of my guy friends call them sexy pants, and are totally drawn to any girl wearing them!

Aging

2006-07-16T08:51:00.000-07:00

Anti-Aging
What Is Anti-Aging Therapy? Modern Theories of aging are generally looked at in two theoretical ways; the damage theories and programmed theories. The Damage Theories primarily looks at the damage that our cells incur over time. This looks at Extrinsic aging which is the aging process compounded by externally caused factors. The Programmed Theories are primarily concerned with the genetics of how long and how efficient our cells can maintain optimum health. This looks at Intrinsic aging which is aging due to the rate of passing time.
Scientists agree that one of the most significant factors contributing to aging is chronic inflammation. [1]. As we age, we tend towards a number of identifiable inflammatory diseases. Chronic inflammation damages the cells of our brains, heart, arterial walls, and other body structures. Heart disease, Alzheimer’s senility, Parkinson’s, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, prostatitis and stroke are just a few of the “diseases of aging” attributed to chronic inflammation.
Anti-aging therapy is actually a combination of different therapies used to slow and/or reverse human aging. One of the fastest growing segments of medicine today is anti-aging and longevity medicine. The methods showing scientific promise in slowing the aging process and extending the lifespan in mammals is caloric restriction, decreasing cellular inflammation due to free radicals, exercise and the power behind social relationships

Too short shorts !

2006-01-26T09:16:00.000-08:00

At our school we wear uniforms so when we had a jeans day the girls could wear shorts. The minute I walked in the door the teacher was like "those are too short!" Then she made all the girls stand up and do the "Shorts Test" where you put your hands at your sides and your fingertips should reach at least to the bottom of your shorts. Well, mine were like 5 inches off! So I had to walk around all day with my shorts halfway down my butt cuz they were too short any other way! Luckily I was wearing a pretty long shirt, but now I think I'll just wear pants to school, no matter how hot it is!

If You Could Start & Stop a Trend by Jillian Lite

2006-01-26T09:03:00.000-08:00

Trend to stop:1. Hoop earings: MUST GO, they look really cheap and make you look like a pirate.2. Peasant Tops: If you wear a bra, I suggest most not-likely to wear a peasant top.3. Make-Up on young kids: My parents have a theory that wearing make-up all the time makes you look nice, but when you take off the make-up you look terrible and most fashionably don't look as good as the other kids/girls wearing make-up!!!!!Trend to start:1. Baseball T-shirts: are really cool and look good on everyone.2. Denim Shoes: Look awesome stylish and cool with any out fit.3. Denim Jackets: AS some people like I say there's nothing like a good 'ol denim jacket and it goes with anything.

Always wear a bra
