Boutique Bus ?

I boarded a boutique bus today... lol...

I thought it was a new concept for bus till I saw the Nokia ad all over then did I realized that its a marketing campaign from Nokia.

Just in case you're wondering which number the bus is, its 156.

It kinda shocked me a little bit cause the interior was utterly different. They practically pimped the bus !!!!

Instead of rows of chairs facing the driver, it has just a single row of chairs from the beginning to the end of the bus, so the passengers are sitting facing each other.

And the best part is, in between and near the end of the bus, it wasn't just seats anymore. It was like an oval cupped white leather chair !

It has red suede ceiling, JBL speakers all over, white leathered chairs and there were 2 bar-like chairs facing the window with a little table ! There was a poster of a bartender-looking guy facing the seats...

I find the concept really cool ! I mean if a company has HUGE A&P budget to play with, the imagination for the marketing team is unlimited ! And I definitely wouldn't mind working for a company like that.

Come to think about it, Nokia's advertisements have always been pretty impressive and extravagant.

You see, that's the thing with local companies I find. They stinge on their marketing budget. They think that by having their products placed in major stores etc, the job of "marketing" a product is complete. As long as they make money from it, ooohh yeah, they did a good "marketing" job. And stops there.

They always worry about their sales but totally neglect the whole marketing part and forgotten that sales and marketing goes hand in hand together. If you've got good marketing campaign, the sales will come naturally. But if there's sales and the brand is not that strong, its just a short-term gain. Over the long haul, you're losing out. Cause by then, you just need to rely on your promotions to make money and when you do not have any promotions or whatsoever, nobody will buy cause to them, the brand is nothing. No recognition there. No sense of self-fulfillment in getting a prestigious good, although the price can by sky-high.

Nothing, nada, zilch.

But still, they continue to stinge.... *sighs*

Teeth

There's gonna be a new movie coming out called Teeth, it will be a limited release in America and it has the lamest story plot and... oh well, overall, its just stupid... I had a huge laugh over it...

This is the sypnosis of the new movie titled "Teeth":


"High school student Dawn works hard at suppressing her budding sexuality by being the local chastity group's most active participant. Her task is made even more difficult by her bad boy stepbrother Brad's increasingly provocative behavior at home. A stranger to her own body, innocent Dawn discovers she has a toothed vagina when she becomes the object of violence. As she struggles to comprehend her anatomical uniqueness, Dawn experiences both the pitfalls and the power of being a living example of the vagina dentata myth."

A TOOTHED VAGINA ?!?!?!?!? ROFLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.......

How stupid can a plot be ? Whoever is in the movie must be desperate for a role....

A brush with terrorism...

OMG... I had a near-death (sorta) experience today... And it has gotta do with terrorism !!! Meeps !!!

Took a bus to work today and do you guys remember where the old ticket machine used to be ? Where we gotta use the filmsy bendy metallic ticket and slot it into this machine that looks like a jackpot machine and press for whichever price it is that you want.

So since we have ez-link, they took out the machine and it just leave a space there. And there there are 2 seats by the side of the machine which is facing the opposite and not the front of the bus.

Therefore, I took the seat which is just beside the space.

Sooooo.... nothing happens.... I was staring into space cause I ran out of books to read and listening to iPod while just staring into space...

Then suddenly ! A bangladesh board the bus, wearing a checkered shirt... and he dumped a huge and puffy haversack on the empty space where the old ticket machine used to be and LEFT !!!!

He just dumped the haversack there and WALKED OFF to the exit of the bus !!!!!

A few people just glanced through it without any red light going off in their head ! They acted as if its perfectly NORMAL for a guy to just board a bus, dumped a huge and puffy looking haversack on an empty space and then proceed towards the exit !!!!

I just stared at the haversack while my brain was thinking:
a)Run off the bus now while staring at everybody with large terrified eyes
b)Run to the bus driver and announce in a rather loud and terrified voice that some Bangladesh just left the haversack there and ran off
c)Be calm and collected and get off the bus PRONTO

While I was deciding what to do and be absolutely terrified that the bag might just blow up any second, this little girl of Poly age board the bus. She looked at the haversack and she thought was mine till she saw my own haversack on my lap and flashed me a look... I just flashed back my look...

So everything was still calm while I was still thinking (I know, its too long, the thinking part, but I was seriously thinking !)... Then the Poly girl flashed me another look.. And then I just told her, "This guy left it ! That guy at the back, he came up, just dumped it here and walked to the exit ! What if its a bomb ?!?!" while pointing to the Bangladesh at the exit.

Then she picked up the courage (Bless her !) and told the bus driver. While I was at a near panic stage now and grabbing my belongings and going to jump through the glass if need be when she came back and told me, "The uncle said the Bangladesh is always like that"

My heart stopped a teeny weeny bit and I was like, "oh okay".

The moment I saw the haversack which brought me back to Earth from my spacing out, I sms-ed Mas and Tiff. Tiff was still sleeping I presumed cause she was on her annual leave so I wasn't really expecting a quick reply from her. Whereas Mas just said I was being totally drama RIGHT till the VERY END after the whole bomb episode !

Grrr... I wasn't being drama ! It was totally scary !!! Like seriously !!! Everybody agreed with me !!! My mom, my colleagues and Tiff (Eventually, after she woke up)... It was such a close call. Phew !

I could have died up there ! And gotten blown into bits with nothing left cause the puffy haversack was just right beside moi... It looks as if it was being stuffed with like 20 TNTs (those in Roadrunners cartoon) or something.

What a close call... What a close call...

I'm so glad to still be alive ! :D
