Ms. Dewey

January 19, 2008 / Internet Memes / 9 Comments

Ms. Dewey is Microsoft’s experiment to create some sort of an interactive search active in a form of a sexy, sophisticated, witty and ever so slightly bitchy woman. Some things she says are absolutely hilarious. And I love how Microsoft tries to get her to respond to as many common searches possible. The poor actress…

This is one of my rare posts about my emotions. As an ENTJ, it’s extremely difficult and exhausting even to figure out what my emotions, let alone express them. So if you comment, please keep that in mind. And if you’re not into sappy entries. Please move along to the entries below.


Idlelatory Worship

No, that wasn’t a typo. I recently came across a popular site called idlethink.com maintained by someone called Rachel. It is a quaint site with little content, simple design, but the style of writing is simply breathtaking.

No, they have nothing to do with each other. So, about the Chinese condoms, I learned how to say condom in Chinese in class yesterday. For those who want to know, it’s “保险套” correctly romanized as “bao xian tao”. Pronounced like “bow shien tau” for those who can’t read Chinese-style romanization. Our textbook chapter was…

January 8, 2008 / Daily Life / 15 Comments

I made it my resolution (not New Year’s) to learn how to cook Korean food (my fave cuisine) before I leave Toronto in 6 months. Mainly, because I couldn’t find any good Korean food in Singapore (Actually, I found a great Korean supermarket in Singapore called Solmart.) So anyways I went to the supermarket P.A.T….
