Gambling? Singapore Idol?
Don't test the depth of the water with both feet. Thats a very useful piece of advice for all you gamblers out there during this World Cup season. Speaking of which, I'm sorely disappointed in Michael Owen's kneecap, but I'm still going to support England and hope that Brazil doesn't win. I don't understand why is it that we have to pay to watch the World Cup in Singapore but the Malaysians get free live telecast matches on their tv channels. Television in Singapore is so boring nowadays anyway and it seems that the quality of the local programmes are getting shittier. Its bad enough that they need to copy ideas from other variety shows, now they make people pay to vote. As if its truly fair. In the end, the real winners are Mediacorp and the telecom company, while people like me get to be tortured by the "delightful singing" of certain individuals just because their friends/relatives/parents/fanclub/pet dog is filthy rich.
Take out a sheet of paper and make a list of the tv shows that you watch. My list is as follows:
Desperate Housewives (US)
Grey's Anatomy (US)
Smallville (US)
Charmed (US)
Anime on arts central (JP)
Cookshows on arts central (AU/UK)
新娘18岁 (KR)
大长今 (KR)
猜猜猜 (TW)
娱乐百分百 (TW)
Jacky Go Go Go (TW)
Cartoons on kids central (US/JP)
I don't even bother watching Singapore Idol. If I have to, I'll just catch the results show so that I'll only hear the singing of those who got in. Speaking of Singapore Idol, there was this 2 contestants who dug their own graves last night. I can't be bothered to remember their names, but seriously, when a judge gives his opinion, even if you don't agree with it, you shouldn't say that they are wrong. In fact, that was the only time where I agreed with Ken Lim that your singing really is weak. Confidence is a plus point, but over confidence turns into arrogance. Even my cousin sings and looks better than you. On top of that, during the results show, you said yourself that you didn't try your best and you still had the guts to tell people to vote for you? Gosh, get a life man, people nowadays.
