Shopping..For A Book!

I was making my way back at Citylink Mall the other day when I thought of going into MPH bookstore for a while. This new arrival caught my eye & I browsed through a bit. Looks interesting so I just bought it almost immediately.



I just read 1/4 of the book & so far...really so good! Entertaining & witty! (Suliana, I'll lend it to you after I'm done, ok? Hehe...)

Vivo Yay!

So, I was saying that I gonna watch movie with Superhero today, right? We caught Casino Royale at GV Vivo & I like the new James Bond! Helmi told me yesterday that the movie was dissapointing but I find it not too bad. A typical 007 kinda movie larr... Hmm, I prefer Daniel Craig to Pierce Brosnan though. He looks more James Bond-ish. Haha! And Eva Green is so hot! The movie was shot mostly around Europe I think. So by the end of the movie, I told Superhero I wanna go to France...err no..maybe Italy or.. Spain? Can I tour the WHOLE of Europe?? Keke!

I stepped into GAP boutique for the first time just now. I already set my eyes on a pair of jeans. Wanted to give it a try but Superhero gave me THE look. Looks like I have to come again with my girlfriends. Hmmmph! Hard to find men who loves shopping. Helmi was talking about his shopping vacation at Thailand & I got the sudden urge to go for a shopping spree soon. Sighs....talk about saving money for my holiday.

Glad to find MAC counter too. My concealer has run out, you see. Happy enough for the day...though it's just one of my needs. :) I got my first Boost! juice too. Jovy & Sze Luan made so much hype about it when they were in Australia. So when Sze Luan told me that they gonna open their first franchise at Vivo City, I was really looking forward to giving it a try. Honestly, it was just ok....those smoothies, blended juices or sorbets that can be found at Raffles City too. Maybe I haven't tried the best one yet. Shall ask Sze Luan for recommendation. :)

UGLY People

I know I'm supposed to update my KL-Genting trip like 2 weeks ago but I've been very busy, or rather lazy! Haha...It has been work, sleep, eat & work again. I just switched on my computer to check my mails really. I try to upload the pics soon but for now, let me share with you my frustrations, at work.

Irritant 1

I was preparing my group arrivals yesterday & I called the tour guide to check on the group's details. She insisted on having complimentary carpark coupon & when I declined, her tone changed! Geez..here I am calling with regards to work, & the agent has to be downright cheepo to argue with me for a carpark coupon?! I would have tried to be kinder & give her the damn coupon if not for her rudeness. So me, being the bitch at times, insist on not giving in & I even sent a mail to the Sales Manager in charge of the group to complain about the guide's behaviour. Hmmph!

Irritant 2

I saw an Indian guest approaching the Reception & he appeared to be somewhat friendly. I greeted & assisted him for his check-in. It turned out to be my most horrible check-in of the day!! He asked for lower room rates, why I'm asking for so much deposit, late check out & the list goes on. It may seem to you that the list of things that this fellow is asking is typical of a guest but....NO. He's TRYING to be smart & then he doesn't look nice anymore. I was very patient yet I managed to give him a few pieces of my sarcasm. Gosh...looks can be deceiving.

Irritant 3

A Chinese lady came by the Reception & wanted to borrow a Sony Erricsson charger. When I asked for her room no. , she claimed she has checked out. When I asked for her name, that was when she blasted at me. "Why do you need my name for? I don't think it's a important! I'm just sitting over there!". So the clever me already figured that she lied about the "checked-out" thingy. I don't feel like lending her the charger & my colleague mentioned that it has been loaned out to another in-house guest. This idiotic woman actually wants me to call THAT guest & ask if she can use the charger!!!! Oh my God...I was so appalled by her bimbotic, rudeness, stupidity...oh whatever. I just stared at her for like 5 seconds & shook my head a bit. Can you believe such creatures exist??! Since she doesn't want to give out her name, maybe it's a terrible one like Betty or Lulu! (Right, Nickole? Hahaha!)

I'm beginning to feel that the nature of my job can be hazardous. Imagine...I handle more than these 3 irritants EVERYDAY? My colleagues & I will not be surprised if we have heart problems or high blood pressure when we get old... We see "ugly" people during the course of our duty but like what Frankie said...."God is fair". I like that. :)

It's my off day later today. Gonna spend time with Superhero. Time to be a sweetie-pie. Hehe~

Dinner at Marche

Work was busy as usual, but fun! My kakis were on the same shift as me & we had a dinner planned after work. We asked Norman & Charlene along too, since they are just on the other side of Marina area. Chose to have dinner at Marche since the restaurant is the most convenient. With the gluttons like us around, photo taking during dinner time was an enjoyable one. Hehe!



The moment we got the seats, Nickole went to get soups, Liah asked for caesar salad & Sue ordered pizza. The morning shifters were rather starved...nothing new.



Charlene has just started work somewhere near Conrad! Good good, that means it's easier for us to meet for more gossip sessions. Oh, by the way, I cut my hair short yesterday. Couldn't stand the split ends already!



Dessert that I shared with Charlene: Banana Caramel crepe with Maple Walnut ice cream. Shiok!



These girls wouldn't share their dessert with anyone. Especially Nickole. Don't even dare to LOOK at her Swiss Chocolate ice cream!



Let's see....we had steaks, barbecued stingray, pizza, caesar salad, rosti, pasta & a round of soups. Not forgetting the sweet delights & great company. All worth it!



Liah & Nickole saw this cute kiddo scratching his butt, just beside our table. Couldn't resist taking a snapshot of it! We were quick, for his mom turned to look at us suspiciously after that shot. Hehe~



We could only meet up with Norman after our dinner at Marche. We accompanied him for his dinner at Marina Square, & amidst all that, more gossips & stories that we all update one another. I miss the days when he was still at Conrad! If you must know, he "trained" me for all those bitchiness I applied at work! Sighs...a great evening indeed.


I just came back from a short trip to KL & Genting 2 days ago. Many pictures to show, but I think I'll update much later, like tomorrow. Hmmmm~

******************************************************************

My dad's old time friend passed away yesterday. I was in the same secondary school as his son as well. My deepest condolences goes out to him. May he be strong in the days to come & I pray that his late dad will rest in peace. Al-Fatihah.

The Visiting

I went to 3 houses today, for Raya. Good good...better than nothing at all. At least I managed to don my altered purple kebaya just now. My mom is thrilled to see Superhero, as usual. He was from work, so no "baju" for him. Suliana came to my place first & she chatted happily with my mom too.



At my cosy, very new, green sofa. The closest people to me: Superhero & Suliana.




We were supposed to go purple this year but obviously, he has other colours in mind...



I'm so happy to meet Hidayah! She lives nearby but I only see her once a year. She's my classmate for Sec. 3 & 4 & she was so crazy for Nick Carter from Backstreet Boys. I miss those days when we gossiped about our "famous" form teacher. Haha!



The last house: Masturah's! Suliana's daughter, Rina is ever full of antics. She's like a doll...just a slightly mischievious one. Hehe..



Masturah looks the same all these years. The 3 of us were in the school's band & even though we were in different Express classes, we remained close throughout. I must say, my sec. school days are the best memories! Worry about studies, gossip with the girls, look at cute boys... I'm not exactly a rebellious student but I had those moments of dyeing my hair, keeping long fingernails, school's skirt being too short & piercing more than a pair of ear holes! Haha..best lar!





The love of my life: Superhero! Of all the guys I know, I bet he's the one my folks & Suliana most pleased with! :) I went to his place just now. Hmmm...his mom looks scary. As in fierce kinda scary. I wish myself all the best of luck. I'm a nice girl though. Hehe~

Hari Raya

The Hari Raya is not as splendid this year. My shifts screwed BIG time. Governor is going against me! Purposely plot me night & afternoon shift till next week! I couldn't even find the time to visit my close relatives, let alone my friends. I'm just so pissed with the whole situation. Wait till I get back at him! Argggh!

Anyway, I didn't get to go out on the first day. My relatives came over instead coz my grandmom is celebrating Raya at my place, the first time in many years. Thank God I didn't have to work.



Me & Izza. She's my cousin's daughter so that makes me her...auntie?? I ask her to call me "Kak Ain" though. Haha...I'm still young worr.... :)



This is at Obek Edot's place. I begged my mom to come along coz that's the only time I'm available to do visiting this week!



Ayos & I always take pictures together every Raya. It's like...a tradition. Haha! He's my closest cousin! We used to fight a lot when we were kids but I seldom see him now coz both of us are busy busy. (P/s: I hope we can make our trip to Australia happen!)

**********************************************


I went to watch The Departed with Superhero just now. I forgot how gorgeous Leonardo Dicaprio can be! Used to have a huge crush on him back in sec school, to the point of wrapping my textbooks with his pictures! My purse also had a small picture of him & his posters were on my cupboard..including the walls! Gosh..those were the days, man. I think the crush is coming back... Hehe. I'm in love again....with Mr. Leo. Aahh~

Simple Pleasures

I tell you, I just discovered the most delicious Ramly burger! It started when I had a craving for the burger earlier this week. Since there's a pasar malam nearby, I decided to buy one from the stall. As usual, there are many stalls that sell Ramly burger but there's a particular one which has a long queue. Now, Ramly burger is just a beef or chicken patty that is supposedly originate from Malaysia. It can be easily found in pasar malams these days because of the demand. So, for a simple burger stall to have QUEUES compared to the rest....hmmm....must be special! I bought a beef burger for iftar yesterday. And gosh, indeed it's the best Ramly burger by far! The beef patty was fried just nice, loads of mayo, black pepper sauce & there's a a slice of chesse too! When I got home, I added more cheese to make it more ooommph! With every bite I took, the sauces & the cheese just oozes out! Sighs....it's fattening but I couldn't care less. I love good food!


I was surfing the Net the other day & felt like doing online shopping at...Victoria Secret's! Very tempted to buy their undergarments & the frangrances. Anyway, I requested to have a catalogue sent to my home so that I can make a final decision before indulging! Hehe...


Superhero is "hibernating" at home with his assigments the past 2 days. Pity him... So me, being the nice & sweet girl, gave him a surprise by buying slices of cakes from Rive Gauche Patisserie. I personally deliver the cakes to him worr! Superhero was green with envy when I bought the cakes for myself last week. It's my turn to be jealous today... :(





Guanaja (somewhat chocolate mousse & Ferrero Rocher flavour) & Oreo Crunch cheesecake.




I just saw my ex-colleague's profile on Friendster & was shocked by the picture above. It was taken back in 2002, when I was doing my attachment at the Conrad. 4 yrs ago! Tsk tsk tsk...nostalgic. Haha!

My Friends & I!

Governor was nice enough to give me 2 days off this week. The other 1 off day is a substitute for my Deepavali Public Holiday actually. Anyway, I need the time to help my sis with the kuih-making for Hari Raya. So might as well be away from work! Suliana sent me a message to "chop" for either one of these 2 days. She wants to break fast together. As I had no plans today, I dropped by her place...with Superhero joining me much later. :) Ordered Canadian Pizza & Suliana's friend, Nur, fried chicken nuggets for us! We watched Siti Nurhaliza's vcd too. Shiok!




Suliana & Nur. We all stood by while Suliana was busy mopping her kitchen floor.



Superhero tries to play the piano but apparently, he didn't attend any prior lessons before..



So he looked around for help....




Then comes the real pianist! Hehe~



Suliana & I just realised that we haven't been taking much pictures together..so Superhero shall be our photographer for a bit! We posed at the sofa...



Then we turned back and faced in front...It's exciting to see Superhero rolling his eyes at we girls!



The bright orange wall helps a lot! Just like in studio, Superhero said. Hmmm...what a day to take pictures. I didn't put on make-up & I just wore T-Shirt & bermudas! Suliana too!



This neoprint was taken back in 2001, before she got married! Gosh... we looked so studious then! I think we both look better now.. Haha. I've known her since 1996 & that's like 10 years already! She's someone who knows what I'm thinking or feeling without me having to tell her. The power of a best friend. :)

********************************************


Like I said in my previous entry, I visited Fizah's new place last Saturday. Hassan was sweet to buy we girls chicken rice for buka. It was from those stalls that pack their rice in a cardboard kinda box. Yummy! So classic~



Fizah's new abode is so comfy! Not that my home is not comfy enough larr, but I wanna have my own place too! Can't wait for that! Hehe~

Down With Boredom Syndrome

My legs are aching..I drag my feet when I walk. Must be from all that standing on my heels for more than 8 hrs at work. Comtemplating to save money to get ISqueeze..but I wanna go holiday! Liah, Nick & myself planning to go to Genting & KL next month. Honestly, I don't really like Genting. I'm not into those rides. But oh well, for the company & the fact that I need a short getaway badly....I'll just go ahead with the trip. Pray hard that the Governor will approve my leave.

I came across a blog by this Malay girl last week. She writes simply & I enjoy reading her blog coz there are many pics! I envy her life though. Seems quite well-to-do, everything is going good for her & she has a great hubby too! I told Superhero about it & we agree to work harder towards our goals! :)

I haven't been doing much these days. I was working night shift the past 6 days. That explains why I'm lazy to blog. I did some highlights on my hair yesterday. Cost me $130!!! Superhero was shocked of course, not by the colour but the price! Haha..But if it makes me look and feel good, then why not? The money is from my own pocket anyway. Hmmm...what should I do later? It's my off day! Maybe going to the all new Vivo City or drop by Geylang with Superhero. I don't think I'm buying any new baju for the upcoming Hari Raya. I altered my 4-years-ago purple kebaya for a whooping $52! So I told Superhero, we must go purple this year!

I'm looking forward to tomorrow. Maria & I shall visit Fizah's new abode! I dream to have my own place one day too...hehe.

More updates later.. :)

Free & Easy

It's my day off today. Friends are working & Superhero got his project to do. I guess I'm used to spending my day off by myself. I woke up at 1.30 pm & made an appointment to visit Dr Tan at 3.30 pm. I complained to him that I have some pimples popping out at the side of my face. He did a round of laser & finally, IPL! I guess I was too anxious during the session. The nurse told me to relax but I just couldn't! I jumped whenever the light flashes. Haha...the nurse even joked that if I frown too much (I was closing my eyes very tightly), I have to worry about wrinkles the next time. :)

Then, I realise I forgot to get something at Mustafa Centre the other time. So, since I'm so free, I decided to drop by Mustafa again just now. I've been searching for this item online & major stores around town but I found it at Mustafa instead! Even my mom's massage oil, which is hardly sold in pharmacies, can be found in Mustafa. I'm greatly impressed! I think I'll shop there often now...Hehe.

Sadness Is In the Air

I watched an Indonesian movie with Suliana yesterday. It's called "Heart". It's about 2 friends, Rachel & Farell who have been buddies since they were very young. Farell fell in love with a girl he met, Luna, & told Rachel about it. Suddenly, Rachel realises that she loves Farell but she can't express her feelings because she doesn't want to destroy Farell's happiness. Unfortunately, Luna is dying due to an illness. Rachel got involved in an accident & her legs have to be amputated. As what normally is the ending for these kinda shows, I expect that Rachel will die (somehow) & donate her liver to save Luna's life. And that really happens. It's a typical love story but the soundtracks are very good. The cast crew acted very well too.

Being in love, in a relationship can be very engaging yet heartbreaking. What I feel towards the person, may not be likewise for me. If you ask about my present feelings, my answer is that I am sad. Very sad. Because someone said something that really broke my heart. I don't know what to do.

Ramadhan -The Test of My Patience

The fasting month has started again. It's time for me to shed some weight to fit into my kebaya (hopefully!), strive to be a better person & do good deeds. Sighs...speaking of good deeds, I just bitched at the NTUC aunty just now. In the first place, I never like shoping for groceries at NTUC. It's always full of people (kiasu ones of course!) & the queue is bloody long & slow. Anyway, my sis wanted to buy some stuff to break fast so I just tagged along. I felt like eating tortilla chips dipped with salsa sauce. We searched row by row for instant salsa sauce but couldn't seem to find. Hmm...NTUC don't carry salsa sauce?! Unbelievable..but oh well, my sis decided to ask one of the NTUC aunties. She was like busy doing her job (arranging ketchup bottles on the rack) & when my sis asked, without even looking at us or thinking for a second, she replied a flat NO! I got pissed by her reaction & I just said to my sister loudly: "I don't think she know what's a salsa sauce!". Now, the aunty SURE has heard me because she turned to us, repeats nicely that NTUC does not carry that item. Her tone was much better this time but too bad..I was starting to pull my sister away. I know...it's just NTUC, not Giordano or MacDonald's & I had worse encounter of bad service (Eg. the Birkenstock store at Wheelock) but come to think of it, it's really a test of my patience on my first day of fasting! Looks like I expect too much of a supermarket.

Anyway, that's about the unavailable salsa sauce. There were long queues on every counter, so we had no choice but to endure with the crowd. The couple in front of us bought loads of potato chips & it's really 1 trolley of chips! They can open a chips-only store at home! Then, while we were still waiting for our seemed to be like forever turn to pay, this uncle behind us just shouted over to the cashier & asked how much is a packet of Pringles. I was like...hello, can't you wait for your turn?! We are all in the queue! Goodness, that uncle must have been inspired to get chips as well from the couple in front! Sighs....now you know why I don't like NTUC.



I saw Hershey's coated mashmallow with strawberry filling! Can't resist from buying a packet. Then, since I couldn't get my salsa sauce, forget about tortilla chips! Instead, I bought Kettle's Spicy Thai. The colour of both look so striking..hehe~ THAT I like. :)

Forbidden City : Potrait Of An Empress

So what did I bought to surprise Superhero??? It's tickets to watch Forbidden City at the Esplanade! :) Superhero is surprised & he's touched. Aww....Hehe. We had dinner at Anatolia Turkish Cafe & proceed to City Hall to get my daily shot of Starbucks. Then it's off to Esplanade!
So so many people! Ah, it's a Saturday, after all. Hmmm~



My ticket & the brouchures! I wanted to get the $80 seats but it was sold out...Sheesh. I make do with the $60 ones...




Waiting for the show to start... Lotsa families, students & couples...





I really admire Kit Chan! What a big voice she has...




The crowd during the interval. There were many people queuing up to get drinks from the bar but there was only 1 pathetic staff pouring the drinks & she's the cashier too...Sighs~


Superhero posing for the camera! Say cheese, larr~ :)



I like these glass panes that cover part of the theatre. Gives me the feeling like I'm NOT in Singapore. Haha! Speaking of architecural design & stuff...





Yay! We enjoyed the show & we are happy! The music is fantastic (it's by Dick Lee, you know!) and the set & costume design is like wow.... I didn't regret going for the musical though I am broke, STILL! Tsk...and guess what, I got 5 days off, till Wednesday! Bloody hell! I have no money, it's the fasting month & I've got no one to go out with! This is so terrible. Looks like I will need to borrow Nickole's vcds, visit the library or catch up on my beauty sleep. What a waste of my off days! Arggghhh!

Broke!

I spent A LOT this month...I'm so broke that I have to touch my savings for my supposedly Australia trip. Hehe...but I still go for my massage yesterday & I bought something just now to surprise Superhero this weekend. It's been some time since I got off on Saturdays & Superhero scored full marks for his assignment. Maybe we shall go for a mini celebration...or rather, a date. Hmmm....I wish I can tell you what I bought but nah...we all shall wait till this weekend, ok?

If all goes well, the Muslims will start to fast on Sunday. Time for me to lose weight too! Time really flies...it's gonna be Hari Raya again, then Christmas & New Year! Remember the gruesome days I went through as a group co-ordinator? That happened the week after last year's Hari Raya! Gosh...I better start reviewing my goals that I set for myself this year. Before I knew it, I have to do another set soon!

Hady & Jon got intol Final 2! Yay! Tough choice...which one shall I vote? :)

Hit By IMF!

I think I haven't update my blog for almost 2 weeks. Been very busy, or rather, too tired from work. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) event has finally hit Singapore..& I'm so stressed from work that I haven't got the mood to talk about it here. Anyway, i just can't wait for this event to be over.

I managed to meet a few of my friends for dinner last week. Sighs...I owe them lotsa dinners. Haha..my shift always clash with the outings. I still haven't get to meet some of my poly gals & my good internet friend, Naz for some time. Hmm....soon, I hope. :)

I'm broke....what shall I do? Let me pray....Superhero, Superhero, get rich soon!!! Hehe~

My New Ipen!

Like I mentioned previously, I only got to meet Superhero yesterday. We watched the movie "The Devil Wears Prada" at Causeway Point. Sadly, I wasn't feeling well. I went to the doctor after the movie. Anyway, I enjoyed the movie. I love the clothes that Anne Hathaway put on! Gosh...too bad we can't wear those in a climate like Singapore. After the movie & a visit to Raffles Medical, Superhero & I went to have dinner at MOS Burger. Not much appetite..but I had to eat something before popping in the medicine. Superhero then passed me a box...& I saw the Osim logo. He gave me Ipen!! I'm sooo touched. :)






There's a card too! Yeah..work is getting stressful. Pimples are growing & my body is aching. But I'm glad I have my Superhero with me. Thank you for everything! :)

No Life

Joakim is finally out!!! Yay! The moment I heard the news from Superhero, I was so happy that I almost fell off my seat in the train. I celebrate, not by popping a bottle of champagne, but by getting myself a venti size Ice Vanilla Latte from Starbucks! Haha! Although, Jozkim was in the competition for too long & he deserves to be out waaay much earlier, I'm glad he's not in Top 3. There's justice after all. :) I hope Hady wins...HADY MIRZA! I SUPPORT YOU!!!! Oh my god...that's so not me. Haha.

Anyway, I've been busy these few days. Not that I have soooo much things to do but I just don't have the time. It's really sleep & work only. I'm surprised I have time to go for suppers still. Superhero has been busy as well. He has to work & study....assignments & projects. We hardly spend time together. Even if we do, it's just having a meal or him sending me to work. Sighs...I miss my Superhero. :( Gonna meet him for a movie this Sunday. I can't wait!!!

Oh Mustafa...

This is unbelievable but I just came back from Mustafa Centre! Yes..it's that 24-hrs shopping mall down at Little India. Initially, me & Sue just thought of having supper at Newton. We haven't been to the newly renovated Newton Circus food centre so we decided to have a look. Sue ordered lotsa food, namely: sambal stingray, cockles, kailan & satay! And it's just the 2 of us...Sue is a HUGE eater for your info. :) I didn't really like the cockles though. Sue has a craving for them and she likes half-cooked ones. I didn't dare to eat too much of the bloody cockles....Haha!

After the heavy supper, I was just saying out of nowhere that maybe it'd be cool to go shopping in the wee hours. Sue was surprisingly enthusiastic about that idea & we thought of the only shopping centre that is open: Mustafa Centre! We head down & shop for...instant noodle, tidbits..groceries. There were quite a number of people for a 3am on Wednesday morning. I saw a family with their kids AND the strollers (Can't they let the kids sleep at home?!), a mom & her teenage daughter (And I wonder if it's the school holidays yet again) & some tourists. It's really like a Sunday afternoon at Jason's. Sue & I had fun going row by row of snacks...amazed by the neat stacks of tidbit & "unique" packaging of some food stuff. We must have gone crazy due to work stress...that we have to shop at 3am! Hmmm...I changed my mind a bit about Mustafa Centre though. For the better, of course. And I'll consider shopping again at 3am. :) The last time I did that was a few years back in Seoul.

Anyway, it's time for me to accompany my bed. My feet are sore from all the walking & standing. I'm doing night shift later..so I can have ample sleep! Finally!

Supper Duper!

I just came back like 20 mins ago...yes, at about 3.15 am! My colleagues & I worked fast to finish on time coz we plan to go out for supper. Wanted to go to MakanSutra at Gluttons Bay but it was packed with people. In the end, David suggested that we took a cab back to Bt Batok (where he stays) & then, he'd drove us to wherever we wanna go. We also picked Daniel up from his home at Redhill to join us before we made our way to....Jalan Kayu! The journey was fun..it's like we were having a late night drive, complaining about how work sucks & joking merrily. It's my first time eating prata at Jalan Kayu so I was rather excited. We had:

Sadiq: 1 banana prata & 1 cheese prata, with Milo Dinosaur
David: 3 cheese prata, 1 Teh Tarik
Daniel: 1 cheese prata & 1 egg prata, Teh-Cino
Myself: 1 banana prata & 1 cheese prata, with Milo Dinosaur

I had a craving for Milo Dinosaur, which is just a large glass of iced milo, with lotsa Milo powder on top. I was so bloated from the supper. Nice to drive across the expressway & Seletar Reservoir. Still crowded even at the wee hours...Hmmm~

Bad News

I looked at the sms that Superhero has sent me. And I stared in disbelief. Mathilda is out from S'pore Idol???!! What's happening?! Oh my god...How can those people be so blind..or rather...deaf? Can't they hear the good comments she got from the judges & listen how powerful her voice is? Just because she didn't get enough votes, so she's out?! Goodness...what about Mr Gomez himself? Week after week, he got the worst comments from the judges. To top it all, I bet he can't even sing a lullaby properly. Indeed, he has the looks & like what Ken said, Mr Gomez is marketable. But S'pore Idol is a SINGING competition.

If he can't sing, why must we vote for him?
Coz he's cute? Hmmm...there are thousands of cuter guys out there. Hady & Jon are cute & they sing.
Coz he's nice? Well...ALL of the contestants LOOK nice.
Coz he's popular? Then we can consider him on Cleo's Top 50 Bachelor issue or the next season of Moulmein High.

To the little girls, uncles & aunties out there: I don't hate Mr Gomez but please, I beg you, for the sake of mankind, listen...& you'll know whether Mr Gomez can be a singer or just a stage performer. Sighs...I wonder...is Singapore Idol really a singing contest? If it is...why is Mathilda booted out?
