Some picks from my students

One dear little girls was singing 'My favourite things' from The Sound of Music. I decided to have some fun and quiz her about her favourie things according to the song.

Charis: Do you like raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens?
SM : uh. I don't think so.
Charis: Ok. Bright copper kettles and warm woollen mittens?
Sm: : Hate kettles. Mittens like that are scratchy
Charis: *scratches head. Schnitzel with noodles maybe? Or crisp apple strudel?
SM : Don't like Schintzel. Apple strudel?what's that?
Charis: I think it is a Danish-like thing.
SM : Oh. They're ok. And that wild geese thingy with the moon on their wings? That's so annoying.
Charis: *sighs and goes on. What DO you like then
SM :Candy. Candy floss. Mint...Candy..

Charis rolls her eyes and wonders if her student's funny teeth are due to all of her favourite things.

Love Alicia...but....

I've loved Alicia Keys since I was a teenager. She's gorgeous, talented, with an impeccable image of ghetto funkiness plus classy elegance. Love her voice and love her ideas. But....the lyrics....have more often than not been ...disappointing. I do think this article provides accurate critique of her work.

There is still a chance for the 71,849 single men

I opened my facebook profile and LO and BEHOLD, I saw a string of comments, wall comments and msgs in my inbox congratulating me about my 'not-single anymore status'. Why? Because I decided to remove the 'single' listing on my Facebook profile. I merely didn't want to post it up anymore. A whim that resulted in... HILARIOUSNESS! Here are a couple of samples: "Charis has been woozy since thursday, is it luvvve??" "huh? o_O? is there something i don't know??" "so when u going to belanja us all makan??? >. "heh.... really!?....there are 71,849 single men in brisbane who will be very dissapointed... very.." "is this for real .. if so, congrats charis :-)" "Hey great news to hear, Congrats loh! By the way who is the lucky Guy?" " Hey. No longer single? Share some news. ;) " Man o man!
