Olympic 2008 Aftermath

 
It’s 12.58am, i’m tired and bored as hell. Why? Coz the Beijing Olympics Opening Ceremony was a disappointment and poor Kobe is getting depressed since we forced her to wear an E-Collar. She just sits there with her pity looking eyes staring at me, afraid to move even an inch. I feel so dreadful and guilty for putting her through this *gulp.

Sigh… back to the Olympics ceremony. I can’t believe i’m saying this but it was a bore. The fact that the narrating was in B.M. and the narrator had little idea of what was going on since they spoke Chinese at the ceremony (bloody hell who ask them to broadcast it over at RTM1??!! Wtf?!!) didn’t help either. The ceremony was a drag with everything going on at a slow pace. The story telling almost put me to sleep. I’m not very man fa *wakaka!

I was like “Yamn… ok lar, it’s all very pretty and nice special effect. Sure got something a bit more ‘gempak’ wan… wich it’ll come damn some lar!”. But nothing came. Maybe i expected too much lor. More than halfway throw the show, the only highlight i got was identifying the 200++ country flags -_-”.

However, the fireworks were fantastic and the Olympic torch lighting blew me away. I definitely understand why the Chinese kept the ending a secret. I salute the guy that was dangling on wires, hovering above the stadium, pretending to do the torch relay. Awesome!

The Sproutwells

 
You’ve really got to watch this!

Cute right? I think so too. I particularly like Rosie. She reminds me of me. My humour is as dry as her. Haha.

Who would have thought of making a cartoon about fruits and veggies living among humans? It’s hilarious and fun. Now, every time i eat a fruit or vegetable i keep on thinking about what the sproutwells would say.

I love cabbages because it’s sweet and doesn’t taste as green but i wouldn’t want Mrs. Sproutwell accusing me of murder. The cabbage might be her older brother. Then, she might decide to send Baby Green to ‘fertilize’ my garden!

Camping in Front of Tele

 
The Opening Ceremony for 2008 Beijing Olympics is tonight. I’m so, so excited. I’m a sucker for Olympic Openings. Won’t miss it for the world. The ceremony is on 08:08:08pm today which is 08/08/2008. It’s so funny. Those Chinese are really paranoid about the mythical numbers huh? LOL. I bet China is gonna do something really memorable this time around.
 


 

Checked the newspaper today. According to the TV Program page, there is only live telecast of the ceremony on TV1. Wtf?! I guess it makes no difference which channel it is broadcasted on but just pressing the ’1′ on the remote control make me feel disgusted *wakaka! 8tv should have taken the live show instead. Then it’ll really be ‘ong’ >> like 2008 Olympic on 08/08/2008 at 08:08:08 by 8tv.
