ad

Haven't blogged in a long time. Just watched transformers 2 with choir people just now.
Really lazy to post, and I'm supposed to be doing physics right now. So here's a piece of mind.


Advertising plays a large part in a company's success and especially in the food company. Also so as not to waste money, the advertising done must be good and eye catching, possibly a catchy tune on tv (like the five dollar footlong from subway). So smart companies have been devising a way to attract attention to a particular product and accentuating what's so good about it (reduced price, new method of cooking). So here are a group of people assigned to make an ad about Burger King's new product, the new long sandwich. What can they do?

So they narrow down their options. A song? Nah, subway's already done that. Hmm.. an action figure? No, too McDonalds. What about an ad on tv that shows how it's made and how it's really 'fresh'. Nah, too KFC. So they cancelled out those options. One of the people in the group strikes an idea. What is popular?

Now they thought and they thought, and one person finally said. "Sex sells". As the fast food market in Singapore is mostly attended by teenagers, they decided that this was a smart idea. So they bumped up the burger from a 10 cm burger to a 7 incher. Since you know...some things are 7 inch long. Insert a few words such as "Long" and "juicy" and add a supposedly innocent "It'll BLOW your mind away", to get past the media authority. And bam! The Super Seven Incher is born. Wait. Something's missing though...

Ah yes since sex sells, why not add a hot girl donned like a prostitute. Give her a surprised look to show how long that thing, I mean burger, is. Yeah that'd be perfect. Oh and don't show where the burger's coming from nudgenudge winkwink.

And that is how seemingly "innocent" advertisments and products can be turned into vicious images that promotes the activity of obtaining pleasure orally.



















































Yummy. Shows how horny Singapore is.

Mini Guitar Lessons (please mark)

NAVIGATE USING THE PICTURES ABOVE

Last Wednesday, I brought my acoustic guitar, a Yamaha one, to school to play with my classmate who has brought drumsticks with him. We have been planning to do this for a few days. There was no drumsets in the class so we used tables and books instead. I asked my mother to drive me to school the night before because the guitar was huge and bulky and the bus I ride is always crowded in the morning.

When I reached school, I waited for him to come so we could play a little early in the morning. When he came, he took his drumsticks out and we started playing some "warm up" stuff which was actually random drumbeats accompanied by random guitar riffs. It's more of a random playing instead of a warm up, but it was fun. As you know, time flies when you're having fun so before we get to play anything proper, the morning bell rung and to the parade square we go.

Before recess was English lesson. As the last minute before recess break comes, I was counting seconds on the class clock. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. The bell rung and the whole class gave a relaxed sigh because the bell tells them that the lesson is over. Me and my friend decided not to go down and eat during recess and stayed in class to play instead. We did the same "warm up" again and played a proper song. We played "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" by Green Day halfway, because I forgot the lyrics and a few other songs. My friend was interested in playing the guitar so for around fifteen minutes, I taught him how to play "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" and the main notes for "What I've Done" by Linkin Park. Honestly, he was a very good learner and learned four chords in a matter of minutes. I tried to accompany his playing by playing the "drums". It was a very fun experience playing with my friend.

Introducing the Gibson Les Paul. Alpine white.


A new shopping mall just opened near the Indoor Stadium. It's called the Kallang Leisure Park though I'm pretty sure it's made out of concrete and not natural grass and trees. There is an ice skating rink inside and a bowling alley so me and my family decided to walk there since it is of a walking distance from my house. It took us approximately ten minutes to get there. Although it is new, there are already a lot of people visiting it. My brothers wanted to go to the ice skating rink or "Kallang Ice World" as they call it, though it's just a plain ice skating rink. It was pretty easy to start with because I've been inline skating the past few months so it didn't take much time to get used to.

The first few rounds were terrible. I had to go very slowly because my brother keeps on falling down. I had to accompany him until he gets the hang of it and go by himself while my other brother gets to go around a few times. After he is able to do it by himself, I get into top speed and raced around the rink. I was able to make a full turn after a few try and made circles on the ice. Since we were allowed 2 hours of ice skating fun, we were satisfied customers at the end of the day.

Today, I went to Suntec City to try to find a doctor but turns out, they're all closed. So I went to accompany my mom to register my brother for religious classes and, by luck, found a doctor. He gave me six types of medicine and two of them causes drowsiness. As I am writing this, I feel very sleepy, although it's only five in the afternoon. I hope I get better soon. I won't be coming to school tomorrow though.
