Two girls, one dream. Little Papaya and Big Papaya grow up idolizing Chen Jin Lang, the King of Hokkien Getai, and dream of becoming Getai singers themselves. Their heart wrenching story is related by their introspective but highly sensitive friend and driver, Guan Yin.

Coached by their seamstress Ling Yi (Aunt Ling), the Papaya sisters struggle at first because they have no “feel” in their voices. As a last resort, they appeal to Aunt Ling’s estranged twin sister, the Goddess of Getai, for help. She grants them their wish, but warns them the price will be high, especially if they do not obey the rules of Getai. Rule number 5 states that they shall not love or be loved by any man.

The Papaya sisters hit the getai circuit and sing their hearts out with their newfound “feel”. Big Papaya is pursuing her dream in spite of strong parental objections. Little Papaya, being an orphan, is in a personal race against time to realize her potential. Like her deceased parents, Little Papaya suffers from cancer and has little time left. Through their perseverance, hard work and Aunt Ling’s amazing costumes, the Papayas become the most popular sister act in town. They use their fame to help raise funds to help Chen Jin Lang, who is suffering from cancer. But they are soon devastated by the death of their idol, Chen Jin Lang. While Little Papaya grieves, Big Papaya finds solace in the arms of Guan Yin.



Unknown to them, rival sister group Durian Sisters have become intensely jealous of the Papayas' success, and are determined to trip them up by messing up their schedule. With the help of their gangster Godfather, the Durians succeed in shutting the Papayas out of many getai. They are ruthless in their underhand attacks on the Papayas, using magical darts to hurt their rivals. Guan Yin cannot defend them, and even the Goddess is appalled by the tactics employed by the Durians. Although she grants the Papayas whatever celestial powers she can bestow, she warns them that there is a limit to what she can do.

At a confrontation, the Durians challenge the Papayas to a showdown. The stakes are high: whoever loses will leave the getai scene for good. The Papayas accept, and start preparing for the big day – new costumes, new songs, new dances. The movie climaxes with a dramatic musical battle. Both sides pull out all the stops to win over the audience, at first with their musical numbers. But as the fight becomes more intense, the Durians attack with their laser darts and the Papayas retaliate with their celestial powers. Who will triumph?

Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder

For the longest time, it has been a bittle struggle between these 2 supercars with a foldable roof, or convertible as it is more commonly known. Some will call them cabriolet or spyder depending on which part of the world you come from & the era too. They all mean the same thing, whether the roof is made of fabric with a metal supporting structure (soft top) or purely out of metal pieces that still fold away neatly (hard top).

The Ferrari F430 Spyder has all the right curves & a small capacity engine. The Lamborghini Gallardo spyder has a sort of angular look that appeals to the engineer-trained, logical side of me too. The interiors are different & each car maker represents contrasting school of thoughts. Ferrari owners are usually said to be successful but serious in a nutshell. Lamborghini owners are successful & crazy & fun loving with disregard for the rules. Somehow that sounds like me.

Both cars give amazing performance, are incredibly bloody expensive & are every man's dream ride. I guess since Audi owns Lamborghini, there will be some German practicality, engineering & sensibility trickling down to all that Italian passion. After all, Audi cars are known to be one of the best in the world.

At the moment now, the Gallardo Spyder has a slight edge, but all that could change in the near future. There is still the viewing of the actual car & the actual sales experience to be factored in. Now all I need is to win first prize in Toto. Twice.

Ja neh!!!

Huang Yi Ling - 爱到才知痛

It is not everyday I listen to Hokkien songs but post them online but this is one of my personal favourites.

Ja neh!!!

Anyway

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies.
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you.
Be honest and sincere anyway.

What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight.
Create anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, will often be forgotten.
Do good anyway.

Give the best you have, and it will never be enough.
Give your best anyway.

In the final analysis, it is between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway.

Tom & Jerry in Blue Cat Blues

This is the first time I am posting a YouTube video of the classic Tom & Jerry Cartoon & you should be wondering what is the rationale behind this. The series has always been one of my favourites. I clearly remember going to Sparks Disco on the 7th floor of Takashimaya while the ah beng music was blasting away, they would show Tom & Jerry cartoons on two projection screens on either side of the dance floor. This particular episode tells a sad but realistic story. The practical & realistic nature of choosing a mate, or in more layman terms, finding a girlfriend. Girls do not seem to have problems finding boyfriends that is why no cartoon has ever been made about the great lengths girls have to go through in order to capture the attention, imagination & the affection of the prospective boyfriend.

Tom falls in love with a really gorgeous female cat but he has competition. Not just any competition. A very rich cat. Whatever Tom tries to do for the girl, the competition raises the bar many times higher than his effort, almost effortlessly, all because of his immense wealth. Naturally, in the end, the girl choses the rich guy & Tom is left brokenhearted & tries to end his life by sitting in the middle of the railway track. In a twist, Jerry joins him too after his girlfriend leaves him for a richer mouse.

You might think that this is all make-believe & it does not happen in real life. All I can say is from my personal experience, in this aspect, reel life mirrors perfectly real life. Girls only want to be with guys who can secure their future, aka financially stable, aka rich. It is sad, realistic. My message is, if you want the girl to love you & to be with you, you first have to give her a reason to choose you. The most obvious, clear cut reason is to be able to give her a good life, filled with material comforts & not let her work a single day anymore. With status, she will be proud to hang onto that arm of yous, & shake her booty as she struts alongside.

Ja neh!!!
