Little Nyonya

Little Nyonya is a fantastic show; the plot, the set and the filmtography are top class. >1.6million ppl watched the ending. The viewership should be in the vicinity of National Day Rally. It outclassed the Beijing Olympics for sure. Come March where very own Golden Globe Awards will be held, Little Nyonya will be the thumping favourite to capture the best script.

For all the good things, there are bad things about this show. Most glaring would be Jeanette Aw's awful acting. I bet Ivy Lee would have done a much better job than her. So stiff, so acting-like. What a spoiler. The ending was equally woeful; i mean u do not need a Spielberg to end the story, I bet aunties would have made the lead actors and actress living happily ever after. Such an anti-climax curtain-call to an immensely popular show. Let's hope it will not damage anything.

For all the veteran actors, Pan Ling Ling and Lin Mei Jiao still have it. Oh, while enduring the pain of watching Jeanette act out her character, I was thinking what if Pan Ling Ling or even Lin Mei Jiao were given this character instead. It could have turned out much better. Hmm...then Jeanette given the role of the evil grandmother. haha...

Okie...i guess i ought to stop condemning Jeanette...she is still a pretty actress after all(who doesn't like pretty actresses?) For all fans of Jeanette, apologizes if u took offense...to each his opinions...

2009

I would liek to wish everybdoy a Happy New Year. I know its been a huge tad too late in wishing but who knows, somewhere in the far corners of the universe, some ppl (or not) will be ushering in 3419 in a few moment's time.

Looking back at 2008, there was little to be encouraged. Not wanting to sound like a broken record, but the global economy is like a cancer patient. Will 2009 be a significantly better year? Let's consider; if the headlines of the few days of 2009 are any indication of what is to come, then 2008 should be a moderately bad year. The Israelis hammering the Palestinians in the Gaza strip like James to Bella in Twilight shortly after the Pope emphasized for peace in that region during his Christmas speech, it is in stark irony that the holiest lands are anything but that.

Closer to heart, 3 of our people were killed in a fire in a club in Thailand. As if the politics in Thailand weren't hot enough in 2008, some twits have to play with pyrotechnics in an enclosed space with barely enough standing space for 1000 people. Oh, not to mention fire and alcohol aren't the best mix in those kinda situation. The morons in the owners of the club have to iron-bar the windows! They just set the plot for Final Destination V or VI or VII (i've lost count)

Well, that's the start of 2009. At least, that's the headlines in the first few days of 2009.
