spirital musings, mundane rantings and far more baloney

TALK OF THE TOWN

A few interesting stuff to talk about tonight!

You have probably read on the papers that popular street eyebrown plucker Steven Lim has been offered a $100,000 sponsorship singing contract. Pretty remarkable huh? But well, it's just so unfortunate that his recent journal has revealed that he had been duped by a crafty conmen! Is that good news to fellow Singaporeans or not? You tell me!

Huh? Catch no ball? Read on!

Now, have you once walked past CK TANG and couldn't help but notice this hunky built stud, dressed in a tight tee and a silly bow tie who goes around telling passerby (or perhaps even yourself!) that your browns are as hideous as Shrek's and then attempts to fix them for you?

Ohh.. you finally have an impression?

I first got to know Steven Lim about 2 years back at a national singing competition called TalentQuest. Back then he was pretty low profile but soon rose to fame when he stripped on a Idol audition which was featured on national television. And contrary to public opinion, he has a pretty humble and affable personality. Except that he can get really loony at times, which have brought about much attention, loathing and eyes rolling.

Check out this exclusive footage of Steven at Freedom Gig 05!

Okay, back to Planet Earth.

I headed down to the Scape this afternoon to help out in the NTU Rendezvous event. As a student volunteer of REACH Family centre, I assisted in overseeing the booth and made sure that everything was running fine. Albeit the heavy and erratic downpour, we still had fun within the good shelter that kept us dry. Woohoo!



The Ghost Cafe (despite a relatively common concept used in several theme parks and restaurants) still stood out amongst the many vendors that sold food and apparels. As the name suggests, this spooky designed cafe which housed several hair-raising articles such as cobwebs, coffins and human floating spirits was out to give its visitors one hell of a fright! It failed to freak me out though. Blame it on the broad daylight. Haha!

Nevertheless, good job NTU peepz!

There was also one stall which sold dog food. Not dog meat mind you!



So that explains the doggies! Cute eh?

Back at our booth, we showcased our outreach programmes alongside with some photos on a metal standing frame.



Let's take a closer shot ..



These were the photos that the team had taken during the Cambodia Youth expedition. Pretty cool yea? (:



And here's a candid shot of Joe looking somewhat stunned! And myself at the corner plucking on my baby's Takamine! Hoho.. I surely looked funny.

The event also touched on the importance of safe and responsible sex. And apparently, free goodie bags are seemingly Singaporean's most effective way to convey a message. So there I had one - a free goodie bag pilled with the following items ..



two nose-bleeding SNAG magazines. Probably the sponsors cus I don't see how such sensual articles can help promote responsible sex. Ha?



a durex SAFER SEX guide book that talks about unwanted pregnacies and painful warts! So watch it guys! Haha!



two durex condoms! And I wonder if they are actually refurbished products. Oops! Hahahahahaha!
