a pic of me and xiao mei





hi peeps...yup...mouth-watering pics again?heez...forgot to take the chic wings though...haaz...met up with Leon's frens for dinner...nice bunch of peeps...heez...at first thought will be kinda paiseh cos do not noe them...but everything goes well...xiao mei is Leon's gan mei mei...interesting gal...especially the way she laughs...unique...hmmmz...oh yah...guess wat?it's like i think 2nd or 3rd time in my 21yrs of life that i visited Ikea...sua ku rite? mayb i dont travel that far for no reason..plus no purpose for me to go Ikea...at least this meet up is for dinner...haaz...hmmm...some comments about what are sold at Ikea...the soft toys sold there are really ugly...mayb don't use the word ugly lah...juz not really pleasing to the eyes...haaz...some are really weird...wonder will people really buy it...haaz...and i feel that the furnitures and other stuffs there are not as fantastic as i thought it was...i've always have the thought that they sell very unique and nice furnitures...but guess i'm wrong (own point of view though)...

anyway...giving comments time...how do you pronounce IKEA?
for mi, i pronounce it as I - K - Ee - a (each pronounced as its respective alphabets except for 'a' where it sounds like 'a dog' or maybe 'er' without the 'rr' sound...i used to pronounce it as EeKia...a language all singaporeans understand...but it is wrong...this is cos' it happened that my Australian lecturer brought in a video clip on entrepreneurs for us to watch...one of the entrepreneurs is the founder of Ikea...and he pronounced it as the way i now pronounce it as...but as usual...when i said it that way...most people became 'blur'...haaz...then i will have to use the singaporean language...anyway would like to know which is actually the correct pronunciation?

there's another word where people always mispronounce...Salmon...people always pronounce it as SELLMON...but IT IS WRONG! my GP tution teacher used to tell me that the 'l' should not be read out...i always correct people...but they just dont listen..oh well...i did help...but...haaz...

anyway...will stop here...hope this doesnt bore you...heez...

take care n God Bless~~
