How Can We Be Lovers?

There comes a time in every love songs radio jock's life that they want to meet the people behind the mushy love-dovey songs they play and talk to them about their lives to find out what inspires them to put their feelings into song. Well this radio jock got that opportunity, on Friday's show I talked to Michael Bolton. Now it was an exhilarating experience being able to talk to the man who wrote "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You." As we warmed up, chatting about his past and how he's carrier had developed, I must admit that i had remind myself constantly not to giggle like a school girl or sound too much like a a fan... "Be professional Nisha, just be cool!". But man, oh man.... he's as poetic when he speaks and it was hard for me to hold back that slowly I was falling in love with Michael Bolton. So when he finally admitted that he was single, I jumped at the chance to offer my services as his potential girlfriend.... he's on his way to South East Asia anyway and if there was a chance I was going to make my way into Michael Bolton's heart as he did mine.... this would be my only opportunity. So am I going to stalk him and meet him in Singapore?.... cause after the interview, he did say that if I ever were at one of his concerts that I could come up and say hi. Now most people wouldn't take it seriously but since I have now become almost scarily obsessed with the man and his music....I think I just might.

So far so good

So by now I think everyone knows that I starting a brand new relationship and I must say it is going rather well. (Hope I don't jinx it!)

I met his mother for the first time yesterday. There were no awkward silences cause American Idol was playing in the background, so every time we had nothing to say to one another we would comment about the contestants and how well they were doing in the show. We also discussed about the future of American Idol contestants, we both agreed that without Simon Cowell the show will be useless.

But enough of American Idol, I also met his sister. She is so sweet, I could seriously see myself getting comfortable in this family (mind you it hasn't been 2 months).

I blame it on the age, I think when I date now... I am thinking about the whole package. I am still a little afraid of commitment but I have to admit in this relationship, (if it keep going the way it is now) it won't be hard for me to get over it.

Will keep you posted :)

Man, this one will make you laugh out LOUD!!

I don't know whether you have read this but if you haven't you must.... too funny!


Subject: Letter from India


My dear Jagjit,

I am in a well here and hoping you are also in a well there. I'm
writing this letter slowly, because I know you cannot read fast.

We are not living where we did when you left home. Your dad read
in the newspaper that most accidents happen 20 miles from home,
so we moved 20 miles.

I am not able to send the address, as the last Sardar who stayed
here took the house numbers with them for their new house so
they would not have to change their address. Hopefully by next
week we will be able to take our earlier address plate here, and
that our address will remain same too.

This place is really nice. It even has a washing machine,
situated right above the toilet. But I'm not sure it works too
well. Last week I put in 3 shirts, pulled the chain, and haven't
seen them since.

The weather here isn't too bad. It rained only twice last
week. The first time it rained for 3 days and second time for 4 days.

The coat you wanted me to send you, your Aunt said it would be
a little too heavy to send in the mail with all the metal
buttons, so we cut them off and put them in the pocket.

Your father has another job. He has 500 men under him. He is
cutting the grass at the cemetery.

By the way, I took Bahu (daughter-in-law) to our club's poolside. The manager is
Badmash. He told her that two piece swimming suit is not allowed
in his club.
We were confused as to which piece we should remove?

Your sister had a baby this morning. I haven't found out whether
it is a girl or a boy, so I don't know whether you are an Aunt
or Uncle.

Your uncle, Jetinder fell in the nearby well. Some men tried to
pull him out, but he fought them off bravely and drowned. We
cremated him and he burned for three days.

Your best friend, Balwinder, is no more. He died trying to
fulfill his father's last wishes. His father had wished to be
buried in the sea after he died. And your friend died while in
the process of digging a grave for his father.

There isn't much more news this time. Nothing much has happened.

Love,
Mom.

P.S : Jagjit, I was going to send you some money but by the time
I realized, I had already sealed off this letter.

Red FM's Skool Daze Earth Hour Party in Penang

So we went down to penang last weekend and had a blast, our long-time listeners and friends, Carol and Jeffrey were there to support the event and I made a few new friends in Penang. I have to say that I have really warmed up to the Penangites, I think that there is something in the air of the island that make them friendly and just fun to be around. Tiki lights and tea lamps set the mood for the Earth hour party and did I mention that it was a pool party, where the DJ console was errected in the pool. How cool is that??!! People really started to get into it after a couple of games and lucky draws... I have to say the snacks and drinks helped as well to set the mood for the festivities.



The party was gorgeous!



Food was fantastic!



Jeff and Carol partying with the crew!



Throughout the night we (JD, Dilly and I) gave out fun facts about Earth hour ( prepared by Adrian, our angel behind the scenes). Lights turned off at 8:30pm and the party started heating up... We laughed, we gave out prizes including a Revelation Rewards holiday package worth RM30,000. Not to mention, music from yesteryear to bring back some great memories. Man, it was great time!! I can't wait to party in Penang again. Thanks Penang I had a blast!




JD charming the ladies



Some listeners were dressed to kill!



My new found friends



The games were laugh out loud fun!



Man, we had a great time!

They Got Me Good

So you would know by now that JD and Dilly have been playing pranks on all the jocks in the name of 40 minute Forfeits. I thought that I was just going to be set up on a blind date but little did I know that they had the whole room set up for a disaster date. Bad enough I was late, but my date decides to arrive later. He brings me flowers and chocolates, but here is the best part...he eats some of the chocolates cause he's apparently stuck in a jam. Then we start talking and he doesn't seem quite interested but when someone comes up to me to get my autograph cause he is apparently a fan of the show.... he gets all huffed about the man interrupting the date. In my head I am thinking.... "Dude, its really not that serious." Anyway, the worst of it was towards the end when Jd shows up disguised as a special-needs waiter and accidentally bumps into Nik (my date). Niks almost comes to blows with him when JD reveals its all a joke!! Unbelievable!!

www.laugh-out-loud

If you know me, you would know that I love to laugh. I am note necessarily funny (although I might be funny looking) but I am a fan of anything that makes one giggle uncontrollably. I am attracted to funny people and I try to laugh as much as I can because honestly my life is a comedic tragedy, but that story is for another day. I also have to confess that I have the most annoying tick, when I am nervous, extremely frustrated or just plain right sad.... I laugh till I tear. I don't know why it happens and how it came about but it happens. I have managed to annoy a lot of people that I love because of it. But I will tell you what I tell them, "I can't help it and it is really not my fault. It's a tick that I simply can't control."

But there are some days where I find it hard to even crack a smile and for those days I rely on the internet. I have been scouring the world wide web and have come up with a few sites that help me on grey days and if you need a pick me up I would suggest:

1. The Fail Blog is a site that highlights the common stupidity of man. A good lesson on how you need to be able to laugh at yourself and others when you do or come up with something stupid.
http://failblog.org/

2. The Darwin Awards is a site dedicated to those who improve our gene pool...by accidentally removing themselves from it.
http://www.darwinawards.com/

3. A Lady with a Wicked Sense of Humour

Let me know if you have favourites, always looking for more great sites.

Cheers!

Confessions of a Commitment Phob... or should I say EX

So its no secret that I have been single for a while, this is not only because I haven't met the right guy but because I am (and admittedly so) dysfunctional. The classic cliche of "its not you, its me" definitely applies to me. Let me break it down for you. I am a commitment-phob. Every time someone says that they serious about the relationship I start hyperventilating. Just at the point when they utter those three words that every girl wants to hear "I LOVE YOU", my head is telling me "RUN RIGHT NOW". So this has been going on for a while now, hence why I am 30 and single.

However, recently something weird happened. Maybe its my biological clock, or maybe its just emotional maturity but I find myself warming up to the idea of marriage...wow I can't believe that I am using the M word. Getting back to the story, it all started not too long ago when I met someone, yes I met someone... he made me laugh and boy did he make me laugh. Then I found out that we share a lot of things in common and we can talk for hours and still want to talk some more. He makes me feel like the most beautiful woman in the world. It also helps that he has also been spoiling me rotten. So I don't know how far this will go but I don't feel like running for the hills and I guess that's a start. Wish me luck!
