American Idol

4 gone and 20 more to go... my current fav is Andrew Garcia and Most of the girl singers. The guys were abit lame this season.I fast forward most of them as i could not bear watching them. People like Tim Urban and Alex Lambert look so out of place.Toddrick well, there have been a number of negative media on him, he looks a little corky so probably will not support him .To me, nothing beats season 8.

Her voice is not too bad, i won't say she has a powerful voice or the best female singer i have heard, but probably as an...

Perth best of the best

Here is the list of the 2009 winner of perth restaurant. I wont judge the Western Restaurant but I think, many times when the Australians pick the best asian restaurant, they are often too westernised for the asian taste bud. My theory is simple, if you see more westerners eating at the restarant, then its not really worth it to go.
