animal planet

ARTS CENTRAL: LIFESTYLE @ 9.30
MEERKAT MANOR
9:30PM - 10PM (ENDS 26 MAR)
Triumph and mishap, comedy and tragedy - everything a good soap opera needs, but this one is different, it stars a group of wild meerkats in South Africa. This ground-breaking thirteen part series records the daily lives of a thirty strong gang of meerkats known as 'The Whiskers'. Using state of the art camera technology above and below ground and by tracking the group's movements 24 hours a day the series paints a dramatic picture of a year in their highly complex and social lives. From viscious fights with rival gangs to infighting within the group, snake attacks, the births of two dozen pups and tragic deaths, 'Meerkat Manor' includes much animal behaviour never recorded before. With characters that would be more at home in a real life soap opera, their entangled lives make for addictive viewing.

the way they stand so straight... is beyond cuteness.

L: Change The World

The theme song - I'll be waiting (by Lenny Kravitz)


it's okay if u havent seen deathnote and its sequel. cos u'll only be needing it for the first 5minutes of the movie. the former was focused more on the strategic/intellectual aspect. while this one has more emotional and moving sides to it. father daughter r/s. friendship. trust. and there was humour in it too! "near" is sooo cute. maki is a sweet jap sch girl. and L is so cute in a playful kinda way. (but!!! there were a few gruesome scenes. which go on and on and on) it's a really good movie. if yall havent seen it, go catch it! now! and stay till after the credits!



"Hello! God!" this mentally challenged boy (right) decided to go for brain surgery (doc=guy at left). then he became some genius. he learns that his feelings for the (fake) teacher (girl in middle) is love. and he learns how to make her smile via books/tv progs etc. but as he begins learning about life and understanding humans, he discovers that they werent as kind as he thought. ugly facades and he couldnt take the politics. (of cos) unfortunately, things werent that smooth. smth went wrong with the surgery, and he had two choices: (1) undergo surgery again to remove smth.. and become low IQ again, and he wldnt have the capacity to rmb his feelings for her, or (2) wait for death. i just love the ending!

nice korean drama! go watch it! of cos, it has its fair share of crying scenes. but its not totally over-doing at all! and very touching! the guy super sweet! :)

my grandmama! :) wonder how it would have felt like to have lived in her era.
we are so pampered that we forget how our ancestors have lived.
war is such a unimagineable event.
you cant imagine how it was. and you cant imagine it happening.

nothing beats meeting up with an old friend, talking about the new.

impressario2008

guess who? :)
the pple from all the categories performed really well! sadly as with any competition, there can only be one winner. and sometimes, the judges dont share your view on who you think should have won.
this is for you chris! too bad there wasnt a golden path poster!
kbox auditions: the only grp picture i have. though not everyone was there.
mediacorp was less happening than expected. no stars, no celebs. we hardly saw anybody walking around. just the infrastructures.

The Leap Year(s)

A day is the time required (24 hours) for the earth to make one complete revolution on its axis. The necessity for leap years stem from the fact that there are almost 365-1/4 days in a year. Consequently common years have 365 days but every fourth one which is exactly divisible by 4, such as 1964, is a leap year with 366 days including 29 in February instead of 28.
  1. It is an Irish tradition that women may propose marriage only on leap years. fines be levied if a marriage proposal was refused by the man; compensation ranged from a kiss to £1 to a silk gown, in order to soften the blow.
  2. It is not in the stars to hold our destiny, but in ourselves - william shakespeare
