'Kittyeatdog' is not the outcome of a bad case of 'Wordsalad'.

View Comments


A visual defination of the term 'Kittyeatdog'.


I have been asked NUMEROUS times of what 'Kittyeatdog' actually means. Although it does not exist as a word, nor does it have a proper defination attached to it on a dictionary, Kittyeatdog is not the outcome of a bad case of 'Wordsalad' (A jumble of meaningless and unrelated words emitted by people with certain kinds of schizophrenia.) 

The term ‘kitty’ is used, generally by children, as a substitute for the word ‘cat’, almost always done so in an endearing manner. Similarly, in the context of ‘Kittyeatdog’, kitty actually represents an idea of a harmless being, possibly childlike in nature that is unmistakably docile at times. The term ‘eat dog’ however, refers to an act that in itself is considered sordid and vile (unless you are in China where they DO eat dogs and are brazenly proud of it), yet by being placed only after the word ‘kitty’, ‘eat dog’ is often overlooked ‘cushioning’ it’s negative impact. With that in perspective, when used together to form a single word, Kittyeatdog, (In my own terms) is used to portray a person who is generally endearing and harmless, most often childlike, yet at the same time, when mistreated, will undoubtedly ‘kick your ass.’


And it looks good as a word anyways.

“Just got off the phone with Chris GoLightly. He was disqualified yesterday, after already being told he was in the top 24, over some bogus old contract. The contract expired, but they disqualified him for not telling them. He is talking to lawyers, but doubt they can do anything.”

American Idol 9 Episode 11 (Part 1): Solo Performances

View Comments
‘Over tanned-over oranged’ Torri Kelly singing Katy Perry's  Hot and Cold, ‘Silver-haired’ Lilly Scott and ‘Pimp-spot/ Possible winner’ Andrew Garcia singing ‘Chasing Pavements”.









‘High-note/(and now) possible-diva’ Jermaine Sellers , otherwise did an awesome rendition of ‘Man in the mirror’, right before ‘throwing the band under the bus’ for screwing up his ending. Gurl. Not good for Team Jermaine.
  




‘Not-a-button-fan’ Casey James did a pretty good rendition of Colbie Caillat’s ‘Bubbly’ for his solo performance, while ‘Smooth-as-butter’ Jermaine Purifory sings ‘Brick House






(I seriously don’t need to describe her with that name) Siobhan Magnus and ‘Natural-Woman’ Crystal Bowersox , armed with a harmonica, singing Shania Twain’s ‘If it makes you happy’, both rocked out their solo performances.



‘Lucky-named’ Alex Lambert , ‘Over-pimped’ Michael Lynche and ‘Possible-bitch-watch’ Todrick Hall in an ‘I'm Yours’ Medley. Without a doubt, bitch or not, Todrick blew it out of the water with his rendition. In comparison, ‘Over-pimped’ Michael Lynche just looked like Yogi Bear with a guitar.

Sorry Big-Mike Fans.





'Rock-n-Roll-with-a-lil-bit-of-country' Janell Wheeler , singing Taylor Swift’s ‘Love Story’, which according to Kara was the wrong choice of song.



‘Teenage heartthrob/ Season 9’s Archuleta’ Aaron Kelly ‘choked’ while singing Sarah McLachlan’s ‘Angel’, which was otherwise moving to say the least. Ashley Rodriguez sings Jordin Spark's 'Battlefield', 'Amazing stranger' Lee Dewyze , sings 'You found me' by The Fray , while 'Country-Star-Wannabe' Haeley Vaughn sing's Jason Mraz's 'I'm Yours', which i personally think was sharp and flat at most parts, well, at least those parts that were aired.

American Idol 9 Episode 11: The Top 24 Revealed!

View Comments
Part of the American Idol 9 Top 24 contestants were revealed tonight! Here are the highlights from tonight, or today's (depending on which continent you are located at) episode.



Yes guys. 'Over-pimped Over-backstoried' Michael Lynch made it throught to the top 24. Seriously? I mean SERIOUSLY?
Well, its not that I was surprised anyways.
Congratulations Mike. You (and your whole family) made it through to the Top 24.

"yay."

'Cry cry baby' Didi Benami made it through to the Top 24! Didi was definately a shoo in after her performance last week on Kara Dioguardi's song. Of all the non-surprises this week, this was definately one of the better ones.

'Divorced-parents' Katelyn Epperly is in the Top 24 of American Idol Season 9! Katelyn performed Duffy's Syrup and Honey from her first Round Chicago auditions, getting her golden ticket along with my 'Singing-Canary' Charity Vance (yeah, I'm going to give her a shoutout whenever possible!)

'Not-a-button-fan' Casey James has made it through to the Top 24! Not 'Totally' surprised, but yeah, Simon is probably eating his words from the first round auditions right about now.

 'Teen hearthrob (Archuleta of season 9)' Aaron Kelly is in the Top 24 of Season 9!
He climbed his way up singing Miley Cyrus's 'The Climb', and disappeared from our 'Idol-Raydars' ever since. But he is back and in the Top 24!

'Amazing-Stranger' Lee Dewyze is through to the Top 24 of American Idol Season 9!
Lee is officially Season 9's Elliot Yamin! FFing sexy vocals with ffing sexy bedroom eyes! I remembered him best as the 'amazing-stranger' from the Hollywood Group rounds, his first round auditions, not so much though. He's awesome though. Tremendously.

'Possible-bitch-watch' Todrick Hall is in the Top 24!
Well, 'bitch-watch' aside, he's a pretty good singer. I really liked him from the first round auditions, but I'm liking him less and less as the weeks go by. Todrick is losing his appeal, glitter by glitter, sparkle by sparkle. Lets hope he keeps the finger snapping to himself and start bringing out some jazz hands instead.

Yay! The boys are moving to Melbourne!

View Comments

As you might (or might not) know, I'm an artist and I had a solo exhibition last year. Robert got to know of it after reading my interview on Fridae.com, came over during the opening reception and bought one of my favourite paintings that I have painted thus far, "My Favourite Superhero as a child is not Superman."
Robert is now heading over to Melbourne and taking the 'boys' with him! I do hope they'll behave.

Thanks Robert! I wish you and the boys the best of times in Melbourne! =D

Apparantly it does.
Especially when one has an alarm clock that is not manufactured to include a 'snooze' button (I'm used to having my phone as an alarm clock but due to recent events...). All it can do however, is produce this loud ringing sound, right before i frantically reach for the 'off' button, convincing myself that I have a 'bionic' body clock that would automatically wake me up in another ten minutes.

I wake up, and it is an hour after.

As I sat on the backseat of the taxi, glancing at my watch one second and the taxi meter the next, I listened to the dreaded sound of the meter, happily 'clicking' away, as if teasing me with each and every twenty cent increment to the fare. Annoyed, I sighed, sat back and promised myself, for the fifteenth time (this month) that I would stop contributing to the success of a cab company that has so far been nothing but a detriment to my bank account.

Slowly but SURELY ticking away.

VALENTINES DAY CATALOGUE 2010 (FOR 2011)

View Comments
I was invited to a 'Singles'/Chinese New Year Party on Valentines day (which just happened to be on a Lunar New Year), hosted by our lovely host and my new friend, Gerald Aw. As I was lazing around of what seems to be a room full of singletons (or not) I just could not help but realise that I have been single for more than a year, added to the fact that I have had only celebrated Valentines day once in my 'I’m-usually-single-when-I’m-not-dating-freaks' life. Had I not searched hard enough to actually find someone to date, long enough to at least last till the next Valentines? (Yeah I know. I sound really romantic right about now).

 With the odds of finding love already against us, added to that (with reference to my previous post) ’We’ can't exactly express our interests on a 'love at first sight' encounter on the streets, freely, without having the SLIGHTEST worry of the possibility of being bludgeoned to death, should the person of ‘interest’ turn out to be a homophobe on a witch hunt. With more and more people working longer hours to make ends meet (or to spend it on exorbitantly priced skincare products) who REALLY has time to date? Most importantly, apart from online dating services (an appropriate time to give a shout-out to Fridae, Trevvy and F*REEOOW*Race, HOLLER!) that seems to have taken over the dating world by storm, how and what does one need to do to gain an advantage and stand out from the masses?

Well, in the spirit of being-along-again for Valentines day (and to celebrate our willingness to be exploited and our ongoing compliance in allowing others to continuously capitalise on something as priceless as being in love) I bring to you my latest creation.

GEO TRICOLOR/ 3 TONE GREY LENS REVIEW

View Comments
 this review is made possible thanks to the kind sponsor of http://www.dbeautyshop.com/
(see below)





Geo Tricolor Grey

COMFORT: 9/10
Well, without a doubt, these lenses, as with my other pair of Geo Tricolor/ 3 Tone Brown, are fairly comfortable. Geo Tricolor lenses are however slightly thicker then normal lenses and even though most times I don't feel them at all, SOMETIMES on the 8th hour or so, I do feel the lenses in my eye's No biggie though if you ask me, and most importantly, does not impair or obstruct my vision in any way.




*Geo Tricolor Brown Close-ups*



COLOUR/DESIGN : 8/10
Well, to be honest, after receiving my Grey Nudy Lenses, my hopes of venturing into other grey lenses just sank like the Titanic. I'm not saying that grey lenses are not for anyone, but I think that some grey lenses just turn out bluish and they just do not sit well on my face, especially with my skin tone (I'm pretty tanned, so the bluish greys seem to 'wash-out' my skin tone just a bit.) HOWEVER, THESE BABIES ROCK! I love the colour, its intensity, and subtlety, at the same time. There is a pretty distinctive colour change, yet if I were to reside anywhere else other then Singapore (people here have brown-black eyes period) passer-bys probably would not stop and stare (and look away, and stare again when you’re not looking).

What I also like about Geo’s Tricolor series is that they do not have a very distinctive limbal ring design that makes your lenses look like stickers. Instead, the enlargement comes from the design of the lenses itself, not a thick black ‘outline’ of the actual lens design.

Having said that, as you can clearly see from the photos, the pixilation of the design is not to be desired.

Yes GEO, back to the research lab you go! *spank*

But all said and done,

GEO did a pretty good job with the Tricolor Greys.

ENLARGEMENT : 6/10
Well, these are mainly worn for colour-difference and not necessarily for its enlargement factor because there are definately more circle lenses in the market that achieves a much greater enlargement, but for all its worth, they do somewhat enlarge a little, as proven in the photos.

OVERALL: 8/10
Unlike my Geo Tricolor Browns, there wasn't much of a 'culture-shock' for me when I first tried these lenses on since I've previously owned another pair of lenses from the Geo Tricolor series. Definately a pair of grey lenses that one might want to own for a fun night out in the town, a vodkatini in one hand and, well, another vodkatini in the other (sorry, I'm not a smoker, but you can see where I'm going with this =D)
Personally I always believe that it's the subtle changes that make the difference but sometimes, when you take chances, you'll realise that it is not so bad.

Or you might end up with Nudy Greys.

*Note: This review is solely based on a personal preference and is not in anyway placing Geo Nudy Greys in a negative light, well, kinda.*
