Words - Born to be wild

Has A stumble upon the perfect formula inspired by the B?
To come upon accidentally or unexpectedly

The band has plodded along for almost five years without an album
- to move along slowly but deliberately

There's finally a light in the end of the tunnel

That familiar surrounding of Khai's house became indispensable and the guys were able to create the kind of music that comes naturally to them.
- essential.

Is aware that going against the musical grain (Contrary to custom, one's inclination, or good sense.)
could be an occupational hazzard, but the band is prepared for the bumpy ride...崎岖不平的

peddling in 忙于琐事的

embraces 包含 the cool and trendy流行的

We do what we do the way we do

The Char Koay Teow Man

- He started to prepare my takeaway

- Wipe on
He wiped his hands on his apron 擦去

cockles - 海扇壳

The Char Koay Teow Man
By OH TEIK THEAM


“WITH egg or without egg?” the Char Koay Teow Man asked me, as he wiped his hands on his apron.

“With egg,” I replied. “I don’t want any cockles, though.”

“Okay.”

He placed a piece of banana leaf inside a cardboard box as he started to prepare my takeaway.

I stood near his wok to watch him fry his char koay teow. He heated the oil in the wok and put into it some chopped garlic cloves, a dollop of ground chilli, and a few shelled prawns. After stir-frying this mixture for about 10 seconds, he added koay teow noodles and two teaspoonfuls each of thick soy sauce and light soy sauce. He finally added bean sprouts and cut chives to the piping hot food.

The Char Koay Teow Man then used his spatula to create a hole in the centre of the noodles, where he introduced a little more oil and an egg that he cracked on the edge of the wok.

“May I make a suggestion?” I said, trying my best not to sound like a smart aleck.

“Of course,” he said, without looking at me.

“I think it would be a good idea to crack the egg into a bowl first.”

“Why?”

“Well, if the egg is bad, it will not spoil the noodles and the ingredients that are already in the wok.”

Dividing an ebullient smile between another customer and me, the Char Koay Teow Man said: “To be sure, your suggestion is good, but the poulterer who supplies the eggs to me assures me that they are fresh. Taking into account his assurance – and I believe he is a trustworthy fellow – I don’t see any problem at all if I break the egg directly into the wok.”

It was a satisfactory answer, and I had egg on my face!

Piping hot: Very hot.

A smart alec(k): A cocky person who thinks he knows everything.

Of course: Naturally; certainly.

To be sure: Admittedly; certainly.

Take into account: To consider all the facts before making a decision or judgement.

At all: In the least; in any way.

Have egg on one’s face: To look foolish or be embarrassed.

Lucky

Jason Mraz - Lucky lyrics

I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Do you hear me,
Under the open sky oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend

Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Oooohhhhoohhhhohhooohhooohhooohoooh
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
You'll hear the music, fell the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
To an island where we'll meet
As the world keeps spinning round

You hold me right here right now
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Photojournalism Notes

Hump
Cross over
Express industry needs urgent overhaul 仔细检查
Many could have been spared the agony if …

Depth of field is very shallow
It is still Sturdy though.. 坚定的
That transcends brand preference
Manoeuvre 调动手法花招
Won a number of Accolades locally and internationally
Curator
Fine art

Insight 见识,

What Infuriated me was that …

Thousands of stranded Motorists camping at the emergency lane进退两难

It was a horrible unprecedented sight in the wee hours of the morning

Lighting is Prone

Continue with their lackaddaisical attitute towards matter of life and death on road
a tragic
the blame game is being played

There is a refrain to all the comments made so far

We are too familiar with the scenario

So the cynic in us ask:"Well, it's just that he had never been caught before."

let us not be drawn into a debate that..

take remedial 纠正/挽回 action

infringements 违反

to get them out from the vicious 恶劣的；不道德的 cycle of poverty.

we are indeed going overboard pandering 帮人做坏事的人 to the supposedly disadvantanged low-income group

no shadow of a doubt

overhaul

Words - Abducts, bites and drops

Macaque abducts, bites and drops
Turn from happy mother to grieving 悲伤 one
Frantically疯狂的searched
Was rummaging抄出for food
That such thing could have happened
She was our bundle of joy
Perpetrator 行凶
It was usually the male which was tended to be aggressive
Develop Encroachment侵入into
Most leaders are aligned使密切合作 to him

I don’t think it is necessary to shoot the monkey dead because it is just an animal. Animal does not know what is right or wrong. They are wild. Animal should be protected or leave them alone. They are our nature lovely creature living in this mother earth. No one can determine its life and dead. I would think it is more appropriate if the monkey was caught and sent to any forest far away from the residential areas. I am wondering how did they verify which monkey should then be killed. I wonder how many monkeys were killed on that day or just one.

I feel sympathy of what was happened to this young women and her husband. I’m looking forward to hearing from the Wildlife and National Park on the coming action to ensure there will be no life is lost again.

Scorpions - Still Loving You

Time, it needs time to win back your love again
I will be there, I will be there
Love, only love can bring back your love someday
I will be there, I will be there

Fight, babe, I'll fight to win back your love again
I will be there, I will be there
Love, only love can bring down the wall someday
I will be there, I will be there

If we go again all the way from the start
I would try to change the things that killed our love
Your pride has built a wall, so strong that I can't get through

Try, baby, try to trust in my love again
I will be there, I will be there
Is there really no chance to start once again? I'm loving you
Love, our love just shouldn't be thrown away
I will be there, I will be there

I would try to change the things that killed our love
If we'd go again, all the way from the start

Your pride has built a wall, so strong that I can't get through
If we'd go again, all the way from the start
I would try to change the things that killed our love
Yes, I've hurt your pride, and I know what you've been through
You should give me a chance, this can't be the end

I'm still loving you
I'm still loving you
I'm still loving you
I need your love
I'm still loving you
Still loving you, baby

Still loving you
Is there really no chance to start once again?
I'm still loving you
I need your love

I'm still loving you
I need your love
I need your love
I need your love

Aerosmith - Dream On

Every time that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
It went by, like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay

Yeah, I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to win

Half my life
Is in books' written pages
Lived and learned from fools and
From sages
You know it's true
All the things come back to you

Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laugh, sing for the tears
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good lord will take you away, yeah

Yeah, sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laugh, sing for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away

Dream On Dream On Dream On
Dream until the dream come true
Dream On Dream On Dream On
Dream until your dream comes true
Dream On Dream On Dream On
Dream On Dream On
Dream On Dream On

Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laugh, sing for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laugh, sing for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away...

The album spawned hits like ...

also daring enough to be different in makring their music

an epic build up closes out his new album
getting up and being strong each time we fall
did a lot of experimenting with the songwriting and composing
they were more psychedelic in sound

to take one day at a time, just enjoy the moment

Preposition
