Of corny shows and boredom

Hola compadres~

Okay, Heffahanna requested of me to blog more and about understandable things....so I'm trying, I'm trying. It's kinda hard when your life is this mundane. Lol.

Lately, I'm ashamed to admit, boredom has driven me to the point of desperation, i.e. racking my most trusted companion Youtube for stuff to indulge myself in. And then one day, I came across this Singaporean show called 'Girls Out Loud', featuring Power98's DJ, Rosalyn Lee and the famed *ahem* blogger, Wendy Cheng aka Xiaxue.

The show got me strangely interested, nonetheless. Firstly, because I was intrigued by who this Rosalyn was...seeing as she has a similar name to my Heffa (only lacking one N! HurHur) and secondly, because I had never seen Xiaxue in action before, as much as I had read one or two controversial issues about her blogging.

So I started off watching the show in a very cynical manner, cringing at Wendy's one too many displays of Singlish slangs to the MAX and her oh-so-corny remarks which caused many eye-rolling moments. Can't imagine what I'm trying to say? Think tres bimbotique, complete with fake eyelashes and one too many pink, ruffly outfits that seem to scream 'Fashion Disaster!'.

But as much as I was skeptical about the intellect of the show, I continued to watch it. HurHur. Now that's controversial, ain't it?

And then as much as I'm embarrassed to admit, I started getting hooked on it. Not to the extent that I actually started appreciating the content, but I couldn't stop watching the episodes. Hahahah. I blame it on boredom. So much so that I have to resort to watching stupid stuff like seeing Ros and Xiaxue attempt pole-dancing, totally flunk a mock job interview, make lame attempts at acting/singing and so on. Lols. And I noticed a pattern there...Ros was always the better one. Wendy was just....gawd....useless beyond words. I hope I am not such a 'girly' girl....to certain extents, it becomes damn annoying! What sparked the slightest bit of interest, however, was that I got to see a real life appearance of the Sarong Party Girl aka Izzy in one of the episodes. I'm sure most of you know her. She's that controversial blogger who has a strong preference for Mat Sallehs and an *ahem* scandalous lifestyle.

Well, well, well....that just about sums up my encounter with 'Girls Out Loud'. Heffabao, maybe you'd like to try watching it (when you have nth better to do, of course. heheh) to see how much you like your name buddy. HurHur. I assure you, I like you much better than her ;) Though she's not so bad compared to her co-host. And for the rest, whoever is interested in seeing a real life bitch fight between some model Mia and Xiaxue, go for it! Lols.

Sidetracking a little, there was this era in me and my Point 2 girls' lives when we were completely crazy about football.....after the 2002 WC in Korea/Japan. And I remember me and Manda used to have this 'compatriot' thing going on with her preference for Ina and my obsession with Hide. Hahahah. What's funny is that we both haven't seen Ina or Hide (or rather, Inamoto and Nakata) on TV for 2 years at the least. In my case, I haven't watched a proper footie match for almost half a year. Lol. Anyway, that's beside the point....look what I found!

Issei Nakajima Furron.....a J-League player who is half Jap and half Canadian. And hmm....what can I say.....quite a looker, don't you think? Hehe. Well, I mean....I would think he's much better looking than Hide or Ina, though it may be an unfair judgement because I haven't seen either of them in ages....but still....lol....makes me wonder how differently the Hide-Ina era would have turned out if this guy had been better known back then, ey? ;)

HurHur.
