This totally cracked me up today - my colleague told me that in the army, you get imitation Oreos and they're called Stereos!!! Not surprising actually, since our government is feeding us imitation water known as Newater.

You notice a lot of interesting (I nearly typed 'imitation') people when travelling on the MRT. A few days back, I had the displeasure of having 2 people stare at me. One of them stared nearly the whole journey and the other one looked away when I looked at him. I think it's highly annoying to have people stare at you, not to mention rude. Kelvin told me to take it as a compliment. I think if people stare at you because you look funny, it's rude. But if people stare at you because you're pretty, it's gross! I mean, it's kinda perverse, don't you think? I was really really annoyed and plastered a scowl on my face the whole time so they'd get the message. I'm just not one of those people who take stares as compliments. If you wanna compliment me, come up to me and tell me, don't staaaaare (unless you like me and I like you too.. you know, that kind... ).

Speaking of annoying, there was this really annoying caller the other day. Our conversation went something like this:
Me: Good afternoon, InterContinental Singapore, this is Melissa.
Him: Good afternoon, Malaysia!
Me: .....
*insert conversation here*
Him: Thank you, Malaysia!
Me: You're most welcome sir (translation: @#$%^&*!)

It was just one of those days...

For some reason, the first car I saw today while waiting at the bus stop outside my place, was a beetle.
