Inspired by the 1988 Jamaican Bobsled team, the gahmen has made a rallying cry to the nation to qualify for its first ever winter olympics in 2014. However, it is not certain as to which event they aim to promote.
Mr Mickey Mao, head of the Corrective Work Order (CWO) offers his plan. "CWO has long been perceived with great negativity. This year we are re-branding CWO to represent Curling for Winter Olympics 2014. We will work harder to 'scout' for talent aka litterbugs, harness their passion and polish their skills. Until the proposed curling facility is completed, our initial training programs will include roller-bowling and roller road-sweeping."

Pulau Ubin Primary School offers trycultural program
Not to be outdone by Tampines Primary School, who recently started offering a bicultural program in Confucianism, Pulau Ubin Primary School is set to offer a trycultural program beginning next year.
Mr Lai Chee, the head of department of mother tongue at Pulau Ubin Primary School said, "This program was created to give our students a choice of designing their own cultural program. They can try any culture; no need to stick to one or two. It is like a buffet; eat until you are full and pay one price. Now, not only elite and neighborhood school students will have the chance to experience this program. We hope to inspire the other schools on the other islands."

Peeladelphia
Yo Mat Riders,
Mat is now in the city of bradda-ali-love. It is quite a change from Bawston. One thing is the sports here cannot make it man...dunno how the Phillies can win the world series. Alamak, the worstest part about them winning the world series was that the whole city had a parade and Mat lives on that block; cannot kun until 3am and after the parade, super dirty max.
Apart from no street cleaning (Mat always pray for rainy day to wash the pee and dog poo from the streets and when it snows, it is hard to tell where the dog poo is, so Peeladelphia becomes a mine field), Peeladelphia is not bad. Public transport is quite fast and the city is grid system, so my Minah gets lost less often. Also, food is cheap but if you drop the food on the food, the 5 second rule does not apply here. Mat cannot take that chance.
Later,
Mat Love

Graduation
Yo Mat Riders,
Mat has return. It has almost be one year since Mat wroted anything. It is a combo of busyness and a lost of inspiration. Anyway, Mat is graduated lah. Time to leave bawston soon and move on with Mat's life. The power thing about graduation is the ceremony itself but better is the gift.
Mama Mat was there but Papa Mat cannot be there but he send the best present man. Check it out, a limited edition Waterman Man 100 made of briar wood, a Waterman Man 200 and a Waterman Gentleman. The bug has bitten Mat. Uhuh!

Selamat Hari Raya Eidil Fitr
Yo Mat Riders,
Mat is back. Today is Hari Raya. In the morning, Mat go to the masjid, the newly built mosque in Boston. People in Singapore takes Mosque for granted, almost every corner also got one. Here in Boston, a bit more challenging.
The mosque was crowded max. Mat cannot sneak in for the 1st session, so got to relac one corner. Alamak, waited for 1 hour man. Here are some pics. The mosque is still tak complete. The structure is done but got no carpet, so the floor super freezing. Lagi, today was quite cold lah, about 8 to 10 celcius. Luckily Mat got mat, prayer mat.
The mosque
OOooo Balloons!!!
Inside.....
Ok, Mat go watch Red Sox now! SELAMAT HARI RAYA, MAAF ZAHIR DAN BATIN!!!
YESSAH!
