Friday. Bah Jangan Tiwas…

Friday, May 15th, 2009

Every time I hear this song I crack up. My sides hurt from trying to stop laughing out loud when I hear this in public address systems around town.

And then I heard this again on Suria FM Siaran Pagi Kinabalu early yesterday morning while at the baking supplies shop. Oh my word. The young lady at the checkout counter and I had a great conversation over this song and the radio DJ spinning it.

This Friday morning I am declaring I heart Siaran Pagi Kinabalu. Especially Si Othoe. (Gitu ka spelling dia tu? Wahh.. ada bunyi speaking oh!) And especially cos he’s ALSO a Liverpool fan. You’ll never walk alone Thoe…

Sa tau la ni hari hari lima. Tapi yang kamurang mo pi aramaiti, jan tiwas ah.

Enjoy!

Danny Goes Home

Thursday, May 14th, 2009

danny-gokeyI couldn’t put my feelings to words more aptly about his exit than my new bloggy buddy Musings.

Therefore even though I’m sad to see Danny go, I’m not hugely disappointed.  And while I admire Adam’s consistency and stage presence throughout the season, I won’t mind if Kris takes that trophy home next week.  Either way, I’m looking forward to the finals.  Not as much as I would if Danny were in it, but the way I see it, the Final Four this year were all deserving, and any one of them could have been the next American Idol.

Yea. I won’t mind if Kris goes home with the trophy.

Here Comes The Top 3

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

Yea, I wasn’t blown away by Danny last night, much as I’m rooting for the guy.

As Simon said, who can top Adam after that.

Although I do feel a little ‘awww…’ for the person who went home tonight.

Not good. Fighting a bug that got to the immune system.

The good news is, everybody else’s physical health has far and away improved over the past two weeks. So I guess now all of them bugs has finally caught on to me.

What? Where’s the Idol recap link??

Ok. Ok. Coming.

I just love a Guy’s perspective on reality TV. His recap got me laughing in between sniffles. Go check it out.

Alrighty then.

I’m gonna go get me some afternoon siesta so I’ll be well enough to catch the show at 6pm.

Over and out.

We Won’t Catch It At 6pm

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

Wasn’t Danny Gokey rockin’ it last nite?? LOVE IT.

Anyway, here are the results, if you don’t already know.

Ah, the joys of technology and the internet. Where would we be without it. Seeing as tonight we won’t be able to catch the Results Show on account of the family heading to Hubby’s annual company dinner.

Guess we’ll be watching the repeat then.

At least we know who left.

And Then There’s Five

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

Do you Twitter? I do. And that’s how I get all the firsthand accounts of Americans watching Idol that I can’t keep up!

Anyhoo. It sounds pretty exciting.

So my fellow Idol addicts, here is a recap BEFORE we watch it. (Just couldn’t resist saying that again yaknow.)

*UPDATE: For a change, let’s hear a Man tell it like it is.

And then REMEMBER TO WATCH IT at 6pm Malaysian time.

My Man and I will.

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009

Didn’t y’all just lurve Kris’ She Works Hard For The Money last night? I watched the repeat again this morning and I STILL love it!

On the two that will be sent home tonight, my cards were on Lil and maybe, possibly, Matt or Anoop.

As it turns out, it’s …….

Find out after the Break! (channel Seacrest)

Just kidding.

Here’s the results, again BEFORE we watch it.

Go Boomama!

Woah!

You know, you have to give it to Adam for showmanship. Everybody else is nowhere near the guy!

And I took in Danny’s Endless Love. So love him still.

I thought it best for Lil to go home seeing as she just didn’t get it.

BUT Matt got a close shave! Eeeek.

Here’s the Results Show before WE watch it this evening.

Among Other Things…

Thursday, April 9th, 2009

No, I hadn’t abandoned this blog. And I know that is subject to all sorts of debate among bloggers and non-bloggers alike, but no, I hadn’t abandoned this blog.

I had meant to post about a weekend of sinful indulgence on Monday but in the  process of updating my plugins, I bonkered this site. And because I was in the midst of baking a cake, some cupcakes AND revising with the Kids, it was only late afternoon that I was able to rectify the situation. By nightfall, I hadn’t the physical nor mental energy to blog!

And then there was more revision with the Kids, the Church’s Easter event and the potential of having the Bff move to my neighbourhood. That last one being a highlight. Woot!

But I’m baacck.

Revision is over and tomorrow is the Good Friday public holiday. Yay! I’ve let all hair loose for the Kids this whole afternoon, on the condition that they LET ME BET BACK TO MY BLOG.

So here I am, Kids creating havoc around the house (I’m kidding!) while I happily tinker away at my computer.

So what’s in it for all of you with all of this you say?

Well, I’ve signed up for the 31 Days To Build A Better Blog challenge. You know, to learn how to make your visits here worthwhile.

The first task was a good one. We were challenged to write an Elevator Pitch for our blogs. I had to sweat my brain trying to think of my Elevator Pitch. I wish I could tell you that I came up with a fantastic one. Alas, (thanks to my indiscipline and inefficiency at managing my time!) I have yet to come up with something better than “A Woman’s Weekly is one Mom’s attempt at juggling three kids, her blog and the laundry.”

Can you tell I have a loonnng way to go?

Nonetheless, as with all learning, expect to see some gradual Changes to my blog, one of which will likely be a change to this blog’s template. I had one person tell me recently that my blog had “lots of things going on over there, it’s hard to focus on your post!” Ouch. Ok. Comment heard, hence the motivation to make this place a pleasant, friendly and inviting place to visit.

Wish me luck!

Actually, I also wanted to show you the sinful indulgence that I had made that I was talking about earlier. But somehow it wouldn’t upload to my post. Anybody knows what an HTTP error is?! I’ve given up trying. So maybe next time.

And as for American Idol, aww mann…! I’m gonna miss Scott. :cry:

Y’all have a good week ahead, what’s left of it.

And Have a blessed Easter Celebration Friends. He is risen!
