April 29th marked 2 momentous moments in history on this side of the world.
The launch of the IPad 2 and the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
If one successfully queued for and managed to snare the IPad 2 from 6am(not the night before like in Kay El) they would become too engrossed fiddling with the gizmo,lovingly encasing it and heading to the nearest wifi outlet to show off,to give two hoots about how an ordinary girl with an ambitious former air stewardess mother managed to hook a prince.
A couple of outlets hosted live screenings of the event of the No2 in line to the British throne happening far,far away,while those number 13 in line in certain tech stores on the island became frustrated at not being able to purchase any units cos our kiamsap Penangites are truly cash rich and thus able to purchase in bulk the things they really like.
Food outlets anticipating the anglophiles had sparse,dismal crowds while the tech ones thinned out by 11am. It was pretty much the same everywhere else.
Her dress and the launch date itself were shrouded in over the top secrecy and though Apple didn't dissapoint,her b-o-r-i-n-g like dress that looks like one could find it at Bripex or a Jakarta toko did.Zzzzzzzzzzz.
The manner with which purchases were allowed to be conducted with regards to the device were food for thought.As the case with her too slim svelte figure so akin to Mattel's dark haired Barbie left a pretty dry taste our mouths.
Seems super slim was the new in and both Kate and her sis(oh the low neck was a sacrilege and did I not see her flirt with Harry?) were more preoccupied with showing off their figure to the world and proving that the two of them combined were skinnier than Steve Jobs' latest offering.
Those that hoped for a fabulous dress and a fairytale wedding were dissapointed.How plain and how ungrand it was of a person marrying into aristrocracy to do us watchers such an injustice.
If you had seen Diana's wedding,you would understand how she turned into a people pleaser prone to human err, that single handedly sparked mania and lifted the profile of the royal family starting on the day itself.
People are disquieted by the rumours swirling around that Kate was planted and pushed into baiting Diana's son .We hate seeing Diana's ring on her finger and we hate the unblushing bride's (cos they've been shagging each other for ages already)balcony kiss.In fact the only blushing girl visible was her bridesmaid sis exactly at the length of time she had her arm around Harry.Geez.
Failure.Fizzle and Flop.
We loved Diana for all her faults.She was a trendsetter of her time.
It's easier to hate Kate for whatever anyone says,she's a copycat who dresses just like any fashionable lady on the streets of London and even in Rome.
Yea the ladies on these streets outshine those in Paris anytime these days.
Her face looks too perfect just like an on the way to becoming aneroxic version of Pia Toscano.Like beauty queen material for a prom night.The one that people want to hate already even for all of her mighty talents.
Regal?Not.Rehearsed? YES! Did you notice how she waved to the crowds?
How annoying on both counts being no.15 in the sea of madness that drove around for the next few hours so tempted to fly into kl just for a slice of an apple.
Sigh.
Not forgetting the chaos caused by torrential rains,flash floods and massive jams from here through to Butterworth today.
Gosh,what an unfruitful day it was.
