Sonnet for a Stick Chick
2008-01-15 17:58:00 One of the cool things I like about Entrecard is the shop feature. Entrecarders who have applied to be sellers can sell stuff for Entrecard credits in the shop. When the shop was first set up, I didn’t think anything would interest me, and then lo and behold! I found someone selling sonnets! How cool ...

Stop the Bleeding
2008-01-09 11:27:00 When I was a kid, I used to do sleepovers at my aunt’s. She has two kids - my boy cousin and my girl cousin.

New Year Resolutions
2008-01-03 12:19:00 Everyone and their grandmama has done it (and probably went “sod it” 3 seconds after making them).

Lis Spills the Beans
2007-12-20 12:03:00 Once upon a time in a faraway land, there lived a fair maiden named Meleah who tagged the lazy arse hot stick chick known as Lis with the 7 Things You Don't Know But I Do meme. Lis has finally decided to get off her lazy arse and do it. Lis also thinks that talking in the third person is crazy weird and doesn't know why so many people do it.I contemplated posting 7 obscure trivia but was too lazy to google for them. I try not to do too many of these revealing memes because I want to, you know, preserve an aura of mystery about my stick person and it's hard to do that when the whole intarweb knows every teeny weeny detail about you from your choice of underwear (black!) to your shower habits (only detachable showerheads plz). Since I uh... didn't exactly reveal much in a similarmeme I did previously, I shall try to do better this time round. Just don't blame me if you fall asleep reading this and find your face imprinted with the letters from your keyboard when you wake up.1) Sh... More About: Beans

Ode to Pens
2007-12-13 12:00:00 I have been unfaithful.I have cast my roving eye on one and lusted after another, all while I was still very much involved in a loving relationship with yet another. That's right, I'm not a one-pen woman. I'm physically unable to maintain a strictly monogamous relationship with a pen. How can anyone else for that matter? Just imagine, your entire life committed to just one pen.My love affair with pens began the second someone thrust a pen into my grabby chubby little hand. The long, sleek body that squirt out ink at one end (sometimes both ends if you possess the right pen). It was love at first sight. I remember as a school girl the many pleasurable afternoons spent in a stationery store, caressing shelf after shelf of colourful pens, marvelling at their sultry sleek curves and smooth squirting abilities. It was then that I embarked on the road to being a pen connoisseur, tasting the wondrous and alluring charms of all the pens out there and refusing to settle down with just one... More About: Pens
With love from Kuala Lumpur
2007-11-27 12:25:00 I’m currently in Kuala Lump ur a.k.a. the Land of Oily Food and have been engaged in Operation Stuff My Face Silly since I reached here yesterday. I had a post that was almost fit for public consumption in my laptop but Missy Temperamental a.k.a the laptop crapped out on me when I stepped into my hotel room, so all your eyes have been spared for the moment. After wrestling with my laptop and finally admitting defeat, I’m too tired to reproduce the post and too uninspired to start a new one. I wanted to at least make a short post here to let all my beloved insane readers know I haven’t drop dead yet (sorry to disappoint, my dear ex-boyfriend with the voodoo doll). I’ll post again when I get back to Singapore and get the laptop fixed. Don’t have too much fun behind my back!PS: This hotel room PC sucks worse than a $5 hooker.Edit: Good lord, they're showing Troy on TV.

A rose by any other name would smell as sweet
2007-11-07 11:01:00 Warning: unfunny post ahead. Proceed with caution.So I might be moving this blog (and abandon my PR4!) and my craft blog, Lis's Crafty Adventures, to its own domain. The thing is, I think I want to change the name of this blog. This one probably uses up half the world's supply of hyphens and since we're so conscious about conserving energy blah blah blah nowadays, I really should change it to something less hyphen-intensive. I certainly don't want the Hyphen Protection Agency after my shapely arse. My abuse of commas is another different story. The Prevention of Unnecessary Comma Usage Agency is free to kiss my arse. As to the renaming exercise, my mind is drawing a blank. So I turn to you, my beloved crazy folks who for some insane reason or another continue to read this blog (probably out of morbid curiousity and for my hot nekkid pictures), to help me with this. Any suggestions?Also, just to give you more homework, here's another thought-provoking question: do ants have assh... More About: Sweet , Rose , Smell
Scare you, scare me
2007-10-31 12:37:00 It's spooky time! It's with quite a huge tinge of regret that I've to say I've never celebrated Halloween in all my 16 years on this sometimes-great-but-occasionally-full-of- stupid-idiots-but-I-kind-of-love-it-anywa y earth. It's also with another huge tinge of regret that I've to confess I'm no longer sweet 16. But whether I'm 16 or 60, I'll always have room for candy, just without the trick-or-treating. I'm sure my teeth think otherwise, but they don't get to vote.Since I don't celebrate Halloween, let's talk about spooky movies instead. I love October because that's when the spooky movie marathons start on TV. We get the marathons in August too when the Hungry Ghost Festival is in full swing. Spooky spooky spooky!So what do you think are the ingredients for a good spooky movie? Note that I'm not talking about horror movies because my idea of a horror flick will be something like Titanic. So annoyingly long and horrifying. I mean, just sink the damn ship already so I...
The One with Naked Lis
2007-10-22 12:23:00 Previously, Mel sent me an invite to cre8Buzz, a social networking site, and I've been spending some time there. The one thing I like about it is that I've not received much comment spam unlike other sites (MyBlogLog, I'm looking at you). Of course, this could be due to the fact that the community is still rather small and since sign-up is by invite only at the moment (site is still in beta), the riff-raff has not infiltrated yet. If you need an invite, leave your email in the comments or drop me an email if your email address is highly classified information that may endanger national security should it be found circulating on the intarweb.One of the new friends I've made on cre8Buzz, Deb from Missives from Suburbia has tagged me for what I think is the Actor's Studio meme. Yes, I can hear you groaning back there. Not another boring brain-numbing meme! But because I'm feeling kind of lazy and this blog hasn't seen an update in a week...

4 Things I Learnt From Hulk
2007-10-15 11:36:00 This is not a movie review but man, Hulk was BORING. Super hot Eric Bana couldn't save this shit if he tried. Troy was stupid and annoying but in an almost entertaining way and Apocalypto at least had lots of naked butts. I don't have supremely high standards when it comes to movies but they at least have to be entertaining. Plus, I have a very short attention span. So for me to concentrate on one movie for almost 2 hours, the movie has to be hella interesting. Incidentally, I've never been able to pay attention for more than 10 minutes back when I was in school. This has led me to develop a really useful skill and that is the art of "looking like I'm paying close attention to what you're saying when I'm really thinking about what Christian Bale looks like naked in my bed". This skill has proven to be immensely useful during office meetings. Of course, it can get a tad tricky when your boss asks for your opinion on something and you realise you've no idea what the topic of d... More About: Things

Weddings and Ghosts
2007-10-01 10:32:00 The beginning of September saw the end of the month of the Hungry Ghost Festival. The Chinese believe that during this period of time, there's sort of a prison break, or rather a hell break, and all the ghosts are let loose on earth to eat your food, drink your milkshakes and watch your TV. The Chinese generally consider it a Bad Thing to hold a wedding during this time. I guess they're afraid the ghosts will crash the party and drink all their beer. So when the seventh lunar month ended, the weddings returned with a vengeance and that's partly what I've been busy with.I'm not the biggest fan of weddings mainly because I hate making small talk with strangers. And then there's the "OMG you're still single let me fix you up with my husband's brother's cousin-in-law's daughter's monkey! He's still single too! He cooks! He cleans! And he shits rainbows!" No kidding. Maybe you should consider asking him to join the circus.I was at yet another wedding dinner the other night an... More About: Weddings , Ghosts , Hosts
Beautiful My Ass
2007-09-21 05:23:00 Dear James Blunt fan girls,Here's a newsflash for you. James Blunt is NOT a freakin' musical genius. He's just some stupid bloke with a shitty voice who writes shitty songs with shitty lyrics and shitty music. They are not "wistful", "moving" or"inspiring". They do not "tug at the heart strings" unless it's the murderous one. They're just stupid emo shit, and not even good emo shit at that. His voice is not "interesting", "beautiful" or "haunting", at least not in a good way anyway. It's fucking whiny. He's not a bloody tormented tragic lovelorn poet. He's not even particularly hot. In short, he's not a fucking beautiful unique snowflake.His songs are absolutely music to my ears, you know, the kind that sounds like fingernails scratching across a blackboard. It makes me want to stick a finger into my eye and give my brains a swirl. The songs also rank right at the top together with "My Heart Will Go On" on my list of songs that put me in a stabbity mood.

Where Have All the Good Men Gone?
2007-09-17 11:07:00 Meleah's post about dating has made me take a look at my own manhunt situation. It's mostly of the non-existent variety. I'm way past the sweet-young-thing stage so maybe I should speed up a little and start looking for real before I reach the left-on-the-shelf stage. Many folks have suggested these places as good ones to meet guys. Hmm, let's see, shall we?BookstoresThis is a good one. I'm quite sure I won't meet morons like Office Creep here. At the very least, the guys who step into this place know their ABCs. Besides, I can zoom in on the ones who share the same literary interests as me. Let me take a look in the Crime section. Ooh look, there's a pretty cute guy standing there. What's he reading? Ted Bundy's biography? Interesting. Serial killers is a pretty fascinating subject. Perhaps I should strike up a conversation with him. Wait a minite, he looks really engrossed in the book. Why is he so engrossed in the book? OMG is he a Ted Bundy wannabe? Is he looking for ti...

The One with the Car
2007-09-10 13:26:00 Cars are insanely expensive in Singapore mostly because the island has enough space for only about 5 people but there're 4 million of us cramped together, jostling for air. That partly explains why Singaporeans are always so angry and complain so damn much. That freakin' weather will be the death of me! Hot and humid one minute, wet and rainy the next! And don't get me started on the damn fee hikes! And all those damn reality shows on TV! Too many of them! Oh wait, those were the Americans' fault. Anyway, I'm digressing.So remember Office Creep? Maybe I should provide a little background on him. Apparently, his family's loaded so he's loaded by osmosis. There's no other way to explain how he can afford his own private apartment and change his car 3 times a year on his current pay. I know this because his work buddies seem to love sharing this piece of information with me repeatedly despite me never having requested for it.

Mel Gibson and His Freedoms
2007-09-03 12:32:00 (Because I'm made up of 99% laziness and 1% do-it-only-when-I-feel-like-it, I've acquired a guest blogger who'll also perhaps help to inject a little local flavour into this blog. StickManJohnTan and I are related by blood although the only family resemblance we share is that we both look like we belong to the human race. Well, somewhat anyway. As we're both from the same factory, he's also been afflicted with 99% laziness and 1% do-it-only-when-I-feel-like-it so if you're expecting regular blog posts from him, don't count on it.)If any girls became diehard fans (not of Bruce!

On top of that, I've managed to somehow injure my left hand over the weekend and it hurts like a damn mofo, so I'm typing with one hand *insert string of swear words in 7 other languages*. Perhaps the worst of all was that I now had to carry my uber hip and fashionable green handbag in my right hand. Not cool.To make up for this non-post, here's a sexy video to brighten up your week.
