A new week

I spent most of Sunday vacuuming the apartment and anti-bacterializing my window sills and kitchen. Today, I'll attack the bathroom. On a side note, the Dirt Devil is really heavy!

Apart from cleaning and some intermittent reading for school, I've been doing shopping at Kroger, the grocery store five minutes away. I picked up a pack of 10 thank-you cards for SGD $6.00. Very reasonable, and with Piglet on the front to boot. Here's a sample.

Things to look forward to:

1. Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis 2. You can read a review here.
Her books are for all lovers of Maus. To be released August 31st.

2. I think I might actually catch the movie, Team America: World Police. It's not CGI, it's not live-action, it's a marionette film! The makers of South Park decided to do a satirical movie about terrorism and world politics. If you're tired of Michael Moore, Bush, Kerry, and actors who keep flinging their political opinions on the public, you'll like this. Go here to read more about the movie. It opens in October. Caution: Film contains graphic puppet sex.

3. Jane Monheit's new album, Taking A Chance On Love. She's looking mighty fine on the cover, let's hope she sounds even finer on the album. Release date: September 7th.

Yup, it certainly is! I hope it arrives in Singapore the same time as it does in the US. Enjoy, enjoy!
