If you haven’t already heard the magic that is “SUSSEQUENLEE”, go and listen to it now:

Here’s the link in case you can’t see the embedded sound file.

And the transcribed lyrics:

Sussequenlee
by Melissa Theresa and The Frenzy

When I first met you
I thought: she’s pretty
And I got to know you
Subsequently

I said, “Hi I’m Charles.”
You said, “Chelsea here.”
Now we’ve been together
for almost a year

Subsequently (sic)
When will you revert (sic) back to me
Then we can liaise regarding about (sic) the matter

Subsequently (sic)
HDB flat apply already liao (sic)
Please double confirm (sic) or else we lost (sic) the house

Furthermore therefore (sic)
Furthermore therefore
Furthermore therefore
Furthermore therefore (Subsequently)
Furthermore therefore
Furthermore therefore (Subsequently)
Furthermore therefore
Furthermore therefore
Furthermore therefore (However; How about it?) (sic)
Furthermore therefore
Furthermore therefore (However; How about it?)
Furthermore therefore
Furthermore therefore (However; How about it?)
Furthermore therefore
Please double confirm so we can solve (sic) it out…

etc.

(Hat-tip to PLS REVERT, TKS.)

Rangoli

So Diwali has come and gone. Unfortunately, the weight we have gained has not.

Just in case any of you were wondering what “Diwali” means, it’s from the Sanskrit and it translates to “Festival of Carbohydrates”.

What’s the difference between “Deepavali” and “Diwali”, you may ask.

Simple – “Deepavali” means “Day of Obesity”, while “Diwali” means “Festival of Carbohydrates”.

Both terms are related to the occasion and hence, interchangeable.

I got into a minor scrape while on my way to Holland Village for dinner last night.

It was raining but I was doing my thing i.e. being safe.

However, this hmstrfckr of a driver came along and nearly sideswiped me after the right turn from Farrer Road into Holland Road.

As a reflex action, I jammed on the brakes but Le Poots skidded and I took a tumble.

(Yes, I know I could’ve corrected the skid but hindsight is always 20/20.)

Anyway, it wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. I took the impact of the fall on my left side so I have contusions/abrasions on my elbow and left leg.

My phone bore the brunt of it though:

Guess Gorilla Glass ain’t as strong as Titanium huh.

Anyway, I picked myself up, dusted myself and my bruised body/ego off and continued on to dinner.

It was only after dinner that I realised Pooters was missing a cylindrical plate.

I was, like: do I go look for it? Do I just send Pooters to the mechanic and ask him to order a new part for it?

On a whim, I thought: OK, I’ll just sweep the area and if I find the plate, I find it; if I don’t, I don’t.

Bruised and battered.
