Flipping thru’ the papers during dinner today, (yes in times like these, even the most mundane activity seems oh-so interesting) I came across this article in Life! Page 6 that got me chuckling as I slurped on my bowl of yong tau hu soup.

Titled “Meow, read my sms-es”, it discusses how technology has revolutionized courtship by allowing couples to text sweet nothing messages. I’m not going to go on and on about this lest this turns out to be another dreary newspaper review like the previous post (not that I have the luxury of time either). I’m just going to quote a part of it.

“But those four words perfectly exemplify what I’m talking about. It provides the receiver no useful information apart from forcing him or her, for a moment at least, to think about you”

Gee…imagine having to force your man/lady to think of you. Quite pathetic eh? You have to read the article yourself to know what those four words are. It’s quite a fun piece to read. The writer sure has some good witty genes.

Ok, have to go back to TBP revision. Tough war awaits.

Ciao!
