Sesame Street

I was just commenting the other day about educational shows for children during my childhood days (make me sound so old). One of the shows I mentioned was Sesame Street!! One of my faves!! I have always loved the show and I enjoyed the different characters that came along with it.

  • We have the yellow Big Bird, whom if I'm not mistaken, is a bit of a blur case.
  • Oscar, the grumpy fella who lives in a 'mobile' garbage can. He walks and holds his can wherever he goes. Haha. He's kinda mean.
  • What's blue, furry and loves cookies??? The Cookie monster!!  I remember that everytime he gorges down his cookie batch, crumbs will be flying everywhere..! And he only knows how to eat, eat and eat.
  • Oh, then we have Elmo. The guy with the "oh-so-NOT-annoying" voice. *holds nose and speaks in a high squeaky voice* "Hello everybody. What are we going to do today?"
  • Count Dracula!!! True to his name, he counts almost anything he can get his finger on. There was this episode where he even counted the amount of food on the table!! The other characters were irritated. Hahaha.
  • And then, we have Ernie and Bert!! I'm not sure if they were brothers (most probably not) but they lived in the same house. I remember Ernie was the more easy-going one, whereas Bert was more stern and serious. And he'd always be scolding Ernie..hehe.

These are the only few main characters whom I remember clearly from SS. The others have not had much of an impression on me.
Recently, Google website featured different characters from SS for each different day on their search engine. I liked it a lot and finally, today, we have the whole cast of SS appearing! And I have decided keep this as a memory to remind me of those wonderful times.

Ta-dah!!!

To Mr. KT

This post is written in honour of (no, scratch that), is written with the objective to give someone a piece of my mind. (Want my cerebrum or medulla oblongata?) Firstly, this person complained that I did not update my blog often enough. Then he said, "Kenny Sia updates everyday." Yeah right, it's not everyday la Tai Kor! And why compare me to him? I'm so tiny and puny in the blogsphere. Heh. Anyway, I'm super busy and super tired and has had no inspiration whatsoever to blog about anything till today. (Thanks to somebody...) Before I go into the second part, for all those who have yet to hear about it, (it's been publicized in her FB), my sister, Eileen is now formally engaged to her sweetheart of six, seven years. Congrats to my dear dear sister. Finally, eh? Hahah. The second part is related to this. Not referring to my sis, but me. Our good friend who complained that I don't update often, had the gall/balls (Grr...) to 'insult' me. When I sh...

Of Vampires and Werewolves

I've never really been an ardent fan of the Twilight series(boo...says you). And I have no idea why some girls go gaga over Edward the vampire. He looks so paste-y with the bloodshot eyes (yea yea he's supposed to look that way). And bleah! I think he looked way hotter in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as Cedric Diggory . That, I can go gaga. But in Twilight??? The romance between Edward and Bella is fine. Romantic, mushy and cliched. Heh. But there's nothing much for me to shout about. (Sorry to the ardent fans, esp to my three sisters. Ha.) This year, the next sequel in this series is about to be released tentatively in November. Known as New Moon , the title is definitely appropriate since the werewolves play a bigger role this time. I didn't read any of the books in the Twilight series though my sisters finished the whole lot of it. So there's no doubt I have no idea of what's going on in the next book. But judging from this trailer of the next sequ...

My Future???

After thinking for a while, (ok, not a while but many whiles) I have finally decided what to do after I graduate (hopefully) in May this year. I have narrowed it down to two options. Sigh. Either I continue my studies and proceed wtih Masters (God, help me..) or I apply for this work and travel thing to US for six months. Will see how it goes... see which comes first. If it's the latter, I'd most probably miss my Convocation. If the former is first, the latter will no longer be on my list. We'll see we'll see. :) P/S: Applying for masters has nothing to do with what the government has allocated to help the economy.
