No man needs a vacation so much as the man who has just had one.

It’s close to one on a school night and I am still as wide awake (no, I’m not doing maths…SGD$6 million dollar boy Darwin stole my graphic calculator!) and hyper as an unattended kid in Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory after just participating in a candy apple eating contest. The reason? Tomorrow’s going to be the first time in eighteen years (that’s right… eighteen years) that I will finally get to have kuih on Hari Raya. Okay, so it still won’t be anything close. We’ll still have chips and coke,we won’t have the 30 days of visiting (well, we only have a one house visiting thing), will still have the segmentation between the different groups and we’ll still have people who follow the Indian Standard Time (IST) and arrive five hours later then the proposed meeting time even when the hosts adjusts to meet our IST. Some things will just never change but I guess I can’t complain. Having a Hari Raya this year that is 5% closer to the original is really as exciting as watching two shooting stars fall from the sky while spelling my name.
Main point: I AM EXCITED!
Tomorrow is going to be awesome no matter how the day turns out. (maybe pictures tomorrow :D)
Anyway, have you met my newest addiction? Meet..*drum roll please* FACEBOOK!
P.S. Please feel free to share your raya photos/stories with me i’d love to see what yours (a proper one) looks like. (:

As of now, I officially have only one day before my prelims start. The more horrifiying thing is that my first paper is Economics and I haven’t even started on it yet. I am doomed to the max. I have been trying to get myself to study these past few days but have been pretty much failing quite terribly at it. know I have to study but my body doesn;t work until pressure sets in (i.e. the day before the paper itself) that’s when i can suddently remeber everything but then, in the end, I end up nwow finishing everything and I can already predict an on coming train wreck - Physics and Mathematics on the same day. Best part is that we end late the day before. Seriously, who comes up with these timetables?
Anyway, I tought that it might be ime to de-stress abit (not so much for me but for everyone else out there who has been studying haha
) Anyway, guess what I found on the internet! Pronto Condoms! That’s right, Pronto Condoms! Apparently normal condoms are such a hassle someone actually went to invent something like this to make putting one even faster. Lets face it. Normal condoms are a hassle. First there is the roming of the package, finding the right side up and then comes the rolling on process. By the time to figure everything out, (most of the time in the dark) your significan other would have probably fallen asleep. Well worry no more! Introducing… Pronto Condoms!
With it’s five step process (shown on the right), that’s right, you heard me right! Just five steps and you’ll have this baby on you in mere seconds! No more time wasted fumbling around trying to put condoms on!
Just snap the packet twice, stretch it open, pull it down and outwards! It’s that simple! But don’t take our word for it. Take a look at the demo video!
Still not convinced? Listen to what the users of Pronto Condoms have to say!
If this still doesn’t get you, watch this advertisment by Manto! Africa’s Health Minister has to say! It’s the best way to ‘chop the aids quick quick”.
