SAFRA IN2IT.SG RAWKS BIG TIME

Cowboy Caleb — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 08:48:00 +0000

Don’t know what 2 do in your spare time?
Always wanted 2 find a new hobby?
Got a hobby but no buddy 2 share it with?
We have all the answers! Get in2it!

One of the problems with Singapore is that everybody is so damned busy running. The reality is that you don’t have time to make friends outside of work (unless you are as popular as Cowboy Caleb hur hur) and therefore are one depressed and lonely mofo when it comes to days like Halloween.

Enter in2it.sg – the website that connects you to other lonely people with loads of free time after office hours and strange hobbies like yours. Alternatively, you could use it to hookup with attractive normal people with normal hobbies like watersports. Hey, you could even find your soulmate – who knows?

Anyyyyywayyyy do you remember the Safra PK Challenge I blogged about? Well, the SAFRA PK Challenge is heating up! Round 3 saw another two contestants eliminated as they failed to impress with their choice of a modern rendition of an 80’s song. Last weekend also saw two surprise guest PK Challengers, Roy Lim and Zaxx. Both are local singers with an impressive track record, the latter even has her own album out!

PK Challenge Round 4 leaves behind the best of the crop as our original participants beat both the guest challengers – Lin Si tong and Joshua Teo. Last weekend featured fast pop songs leaving our remaining contestants (Sheryl Choo, Eddie Soh, Jeremaine Yeo, Clara Yap, Karen Lin and Bai Jun Long) for Round 5.

I wonder what’s going to happen in Round 5?

Checkout the video of the latest round here, and post some comments to shout out which contestant sang your favourite 80’s song and you may be one of the 5 lucky winners to get yourself a magazine pack (imported only, in2it.sg believes only in the good stuff) worth over $50!

Join me on the forum (registration is required but it is quick and painless), and let’s tease the shite out of these wannabes!

Such Succulent Sake

Cowboy Caleb — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 10:45:03 +0000

15 minutes ago, I left the Japanese restaurant located just outside my apartment block. It is an upscale eatery with Japanese speaking service staff, catering to mainly my Japanese expat neighbours.

Today, because I felt so down, I ordered a bottle of sake to go along with the salmon sashimi, cold noodles and prawn tempura.

Today, because I felt so down, I drank all the sake and wasn’t interested in a bite of food. When I asked for the bill, the waitress looked at my untouched food and asked if anything was the matter.

I told her the sake was excellent.

Then, I popped into the liquor shop next door and bought a bottle of Bacardi, some soda water and a few lemons.

The theme of today’s morose mood is ” After 30, The Things You Love Fall Away”. I find that as I grow older, the things I love confuse me, and the things I no longer love are becoming a burden.

Some burdens are too heavy to bear alone.

I just bought this new game called Torchlight online.

Because it’s looks set to be a lonely weekend.

Because I like pretending that I’m actually an elf slinging bows and arrows into the crotches of foul-smelling orcs and goblins.

Looks like I may learn to live here after all

Cowboy Caleb — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 23:15:18 +0000

The expat supermarkets I had found so far had been found lacking and selling overpriced shite. To make matters worse, the selection of imported food at places like Carrefour was found to be severely lacking.

Having picked up a copy of a the only freely distributed English magazine in Guangdong called “Here! Dongguan”, I began flicking through the classifieds section. To my surprise, I found a Jusco supermarket located about 20 minutes from my apartment. If you don’t know, Jusco is a Japanese chain of supermarkets and malls which have proven to be extremely popular in Malaysia where they are known as Jaya Jusco.

Upon arrival at the supermarket, I nearly wept when I found the same layout in China, that you would find in Malaysia. Fruits were neatly stacked. Meats were chopped into tidy bits, cleaned and then wrapped in foil. For the first time, an idiot like me could shop without cringing because the average China supermarket isn’t very different from a wet market.

I bought lots of steak (pre-marinated with black pepper), enough for an entire week.

The important goods section were just as impressive. Jusco didn’t really declare they had an imported goods section but instead decided to just mix everything together.

Quality of life here just went up by 5 points.

Selling Speakers Out Of A White Van

Cowboy Caleb — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 02:04:32 +0000

A couple of years ago, I was walking along Ann Siang hill after work to look for a friend so we could head off to the bar for a beer when suddenly a white van pulls up and this old chinese dude pops his head out the window and asks me if I would like to buy some branded speakers for next to nothing (well SGD500 actually).

Apparently, he been asked to deliver 20 sets, but had somehow been given 21 sets by mistake so he wanted to make some money.

Despite showing me some brochures, I declined his offer because I know nothing about speakers and basically do not appreciate audio hi-fi in the least.

Now I discover, that this is a scam and it exists all over the world.

‘One Malaysia’ my arse – Three bright Malaysian students were denied places in university matriculation programmes because they are of mixed parentage. No wonder debates like this are still taking place with our smartest kids being denied a proper education.
