Britt McKillip has pitched up her Blueberry Muffin voice for this season, and it is driving me nuts! She sounds way too nasal.

I miss Angel. She either disappeared or we're never online at the same time anymore.

I wonder where she is as well. We haven't talked to each other much, but yeah...it's been ages since she has either logged in here or been at the chat room.

I have been logged into the chat rooms for hours on end at points, and she never logs in.

I would assume she is busy with Real Life. She could very well be. Perhaps she is lurking here and not posting. It's hard to tell at this point.

Angel...if you are reading this, please tell us you are alright.

I'm sure she's around. Maybe I can send her an offline PM via MSN and see what pops up?

I wish, wish, wish I could draw. Because after yesterday's episode, all I want in life is an image of Blueberry in the Once-ler's pimp suit (but colored blue, of course).

Today is Cleo's 1st birthday, and Dee's birthday is the day after tomorrow. We celebrated both of their birthdays this weekend. Dee bought herself a 2012 Toyota Prius for her birthday. It is a funny car, in my opinion. It has some amazing features, like a built-in phone, built-in map, built-in pandora.com radio, and so on. It's hard to know how exactly everything works. At one point, Dee and Ben were trying to set something up and the car started reading all of Dee's cell phone text messages out loud for everyone and the neighbors to hear. Most of the messages were from Ben, so it's a good thing he found this hilarious.

Car's Monotone: "Eh bleh bleh bleh blah."

Car's Monotone: "This sounds so fun. Exclamation mark. Not. Period."

Car's Monotone: "This is driving me crazy. Colon. Parentheses. Sad face."

Car's Monotone: "I have to work tomorrow. Colon. Parentheses. Sad face."

Car's Monotone: "See comma I know the kind of junk James will tell me." (Ben was embarrassed about that one.)

This went on for quite a while longer and the car gathered quite an audience.

A car for birthday present? hock:

And that's a funny one. :lol:

Man, I'd love to have a Prius, but the government demands that we pay a large duty/tax on non-Malaysian cars >.<

One of the few reasons I want to migrate. I'm stuck with this locally produced Proton junk that has lousy gas mileage, because I can't otherwise afford to pay RM140,000 for a RM75,000 car! (Yeah, I looked it up on both Toyota US and Malaysia sites. US$25,000 becomes RM75,000 given the small value of Malaysian money. And yet they want another RM74,000 on the top for the imported vehicle tax/duty!).

Which explains why I lulzed at a video of Jeremy Clarkson trashing a Malaysian-made car in Top Gear. Patriotism does have its limits.

Right. Unfortunately, the Kancil is much more loved by Malaysians than Proton (it's seen by many as the car that will kill Proton's monopoly. Don't know why people didn't just attack the root of the problem that is the imported vehicles duty/tax that supposedly was imposed to "protect" Proton, and I suspect that their actions are what caused Astro to drop BBC Entertainment from their lineup (I don't buy the "Nielsen Media says that no one watches that channel" crap customer service gave me when I called in to complain. Are they saying that no one here watches Doctor Who, given that Doctor Who is only available on BBCE in Asia?!? Plus, it's extremely suspicious that the channel was removed shortly after said Top Gear episode aired on said channel...)

Oh, and regarding migration, have you, if you do intend to, considered the Philippines?
