As exams draw ever closer, it's always good to talk about stuff totally to school from now and then just to let off some steam.
The vaporizing subjects for today are two annoying aunties that i've come across recently on tv.
Annoying auntie number 1: If you've been catching even a little bit of channel 5/ channelnewsasia recently you'd have come across the prudential ad with the auntie at a supermarket checkout corner who proceeds to do some kind of pseudo-cannot-make-it macarena upon hearing the beep of the checkout counter scanner. I hope that for that auntie's sake she was paid a royal sum for so thoroughly embarassing herself in front of the whole nation during practically every single commercial break. I won't be surprised if from now on wherever she goes around some eagle-eyed Singaporean will point at her and say "eh, the siao dancing auntie!". Or at least i will.
Annoying auntie number 2: This one definitely takes the cake for the person on tv i'd most like to reach into the screen to strangle. Having been involuntarily subject to the torture that is watching and listening to tv mobile every single day both to and from school, i shudder to note that the daily agony has just gotten worse thanks to the auntie who happened to win $1500 in some DHL thingy, and went on to rather untelegenically (this being a gross understatement, i tell you) broadcast this happy news of hers to the wholly uninterested and annoyed tv mobile viewing public. To rub salt into this already gaping wound is the fact that apparently the tv mobile commercial break schedulers have thought nothing of including this piece of crap of an advertisement in every single break. Seriously, if i hear that auntie say "all thanks to DEE HAYTCH ELLLLLLLL!" even one more time methinks that i will just scream (and attack the tv mobile screen too, of course)...
On another note, ate zhu1 gan1 mian4 xian4 (had to sorta mumble my order in the eventually fulfilled hope that the stall auntie would understand me since i was not entirely sure what it was called in the first place - i went like "zhu1 *insert random nonsense syllable here* mian xian") today for the first time ever, and it was actually quite good. The liver didn't taste too liverish, and the soup was quite flavorful...
