Okay, I lost. I'm still too lousy for the medium suit. Tsk, shall stop before I sound like an utter sore loser.
BACK TO BUSINESS!
GLOBAL WARMING!
Maps of Shanghai: 1992, 1999, and 2007.
Satellite images of Lake Chad in 1972 (left) and 1987 from The Times Comprehensive Atlas of the World.
The Yellow River :1979 (left) and 2000.
As I was checking out these images, I was kinda taken aback. I never bothered about the environment, I didn't care if the icebergs were getting smaller or if the worlds' seas levels are getting waaaaaaay higher than ever. I couldn't give a shit about it. Why should I care right?
But damn, when I saw these pictures, it really struck me. I didn't know it'd be THIS bad. And maybe by 2090, Singaporeans would all be living like Little Mermaid-s & Little Merman-s and we wouldn't be able to live without our oxygen tanks and we'll be good friends with Nemo and we'll have endless supply of seafood.
But, goodbye to the beaches and goodbye to tanned skin. YIKES!
I'll do my best to save the Earth by reusing everything I possibly can. Plastic bags: RE-USE THEM or BURN THEM. But that's gonna be so harmful because of the smell is being released when plastic's being burnt.
Honestly, I don't even smell anything at all and everyone gets all freaked out when I start burning plastic,' OMG SAM! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?! DON'T BURN PLASTIC!'
WHATEVER, that's the past. ANYWAY, my point is, I'm gonna do my part to save the Earth too. But it won't be an easy feat.
I've (sort of) started my part to save the Earth. For the past few months, I've been actively surfing around some awesomely cool websites about pledging not to buy any new clothes at all after they've pledged their part.
Sounds impossible? Not really.
What these girls do, they shop at thrift shops or re-invent their boring o' basics till it looks so rad that they don't even have to buy anything branded or expensive to look good.
That's a good thing because,
- You save the Earth (main objective)
- You save your KER-CHING! (2nd most important objective)
- It basically tests your creativity
HOW FUCKING COOL IS THIS???!
I should use Pedigree pack to make a bag out of it. So fucking gnarly. Y'OW!! I'll wait till my dogs finish with their food pack before I make my move on that big yellow pack.
Isn't this dress so pretty??? Guess what it's made from: IKEA'S SHOWER CURTAIN.
Thats so freaking cool huh! Just remember not to get a transparent shower curtain though. Unless you really are so desperate to show guys your cooties. Then, go for it. Desperado.
OH OH OH OH! And then, there's quilling. It's the art of rolling and gluing thin strips of paper into different shapes.
How lovely is this! I think I'll do quilling one fine day, try it out. Looks simple YET classy. I just hope that when I wear it, I don't perspire or the glue will just come off. Maybe I should do it tmrw...
Toilet paper wedding dress
Eww right. Yeah, big fat eww. But I like the details at the back. This dress kills more trees though. HAHA! Whatever, so contradicting to my title but I just thought this would be an interesting photo to share. Imagine using recycled toilet paper with shit stuck on it.
How sick.
Byfar, the MOST interesting recycling project would go to this:
HANDBAGS MADE OUT OF BROKEN DECKS.
These 'bags' are so freaking cool! I wish I could get one if I were living in the UK I don't have to pay for the shipping fee. BIG SIGH MOMENT DOOOOOD.
And one good thing about this 'bag' is that if there's some sick ass perv who wants to get into your pants, just one wack from your bag is enough to sweep him off his feet literally. I always see in dramas where those girls would use their soft handbags to wack a guy (as if that hurts, bimbo) trying pathetically to ward the perv away. But damn, a change of handbag is all it takes to make a guy back off. Cool shizz!
Check this website out anyway, just so fucking awesome.
Bags from recycled skateboards
I hope you guys would take this seriously as I would too. Let's do our part to save the Earth! PEACE AND LOVE! <3

Past few days have been awesomely fun. Being back into my social group where I know I'm accepted for who I am; is so fun, I can be with my friends that I can honestly be open with and be myself.
I know where I'm wanted and I know where I'm not.
BBQ with class was awesome, catching up on each other lives', gossips and just dissing each other and harping about the absence of the lights with GOOD FOOD thanks to our chefs of the day.
Stayed over at Nurul's place and we just talked and talked and talked till it was 2ish in the morning before deciding that she should really get some sleep because it was her test the next day.
It's the first time I'm eating with my hands, on the next day. I've never eaten with my hands before, as in, not in that ugly manner where all my rice got stuck on the palms of my hands (which I told myself that I'm never gonna get this fucking messy again). I think I did pretty well for a Chinese eating like a Malay. HAHAHA! I'm so thick-skinned, I know. But Nurul, you love me the same right? Even if you don't, 'FORGIVE ALEX, FORGIVE!' (;
Out with my other N today.
Nice catching up with NAT NAT BO NAT, BANANA FANNA FO FAT, FEE FAI MO MAT, NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!
Just sitting down drinking our PAO PAO CHA and eating Subway cookies, just talking and laughing makes me wanna go back to secondary school again.
Anyhoos, I'm stuck with reality tv series. I'm soooo dead. But I'm just a big fat sucker for reality tv shows, I can't get enough of it and I'm shamefully admitting to it. Just so... damn addictive! I ought to slap myself for being like this. But then again, watching reality tv is a sin meh. Fuck, I'm just reasoning out with myself. On my blog. How stupid can I get. AHHHH, too much LB.
Just discovered a new indie rock band. Fuck, they're going to be my Westlife for now. Then I'll run to another band once my attention span runs out on them.
Hooked
