How Ulu..??
If you are wondering how “ulu” this little town i am in.. i just have to tell you this.. and you will fully understand.
Newpaper of local news can be gotten only once a week on a Tuesday.. and there is only one local paper around. So yes.. you heard right.. !! one newspaper.. once a week. That means.. whole week.. only 1 paper to read.. for local paper (the size of The New Paper in Singapore)
So now you know how “ulu” ya.. 
So you pity this city gal.. in “ulu” town for 6 yrs.. now or not..??
PS : In Singapore hor.. we have several local papers.. in a day. Got chinese ones.. english ones.. malay ones.. and tamil ones.
hey cheer up…a paper is just a paper…what’s important is you are with the loves of your life…
maybe you need a vacation…i can see you miss singapore a lot…it’s nice there..been there once and i love to come back
Hey.. Hipmomma/Girlie,
Yer right..!! i donch think i can leave PB or Chloe here.. and go home for a short vacation.. they are more important for sure. But yes.. yer right.. i need a vacation .. now if only we have the time..
I’m glad you liked singapore too..

Thats the fun of living in a small town. Get the gossip from the neighbors. hehe
We get a city paper and a county paper once a week. Can subscribe to the Houston Chronicle for a daily. I’d rather just get the Wall Street Journal every day and the Chronicle on Sunday for the ad pages.
Hey..SA,
No fun.. when you have loads of losers, sluts.. and welfare bitches in town.. who has got nothing better to do.. then to sit at Loserville ALL day..!! and EVERYDAY..!! Eeeeewwwwkksss..!! gossiping.. and scaming the government..! and trying to pop out more babies… just so they can get more money.
Having said that.. i’m ONLY referring to the REAL losers… REAL sluts.. and REAL welfare bitches.. and those whose idea of having babies is to scam the government.. but not the genuine ones.

At least have Internet if not lagi cannot survive! Penang is also considered ULU if compared to SG… that was why I still not completely settled down!
Hey..Angeleyes,
At least Penang got all sorts of good food.. and durians too..!! the only biggest complain is no good food.. nor asian grocery store.

and I always take for granted our daily newspapers in sg! Sometimes I don’t even bother reading it simply because I hate staining my fingers!
Hey..MsFF,
To be honest with you… i used to love all kinds of papers in Singapore…
and when i first came here.. i so missed.. all the local magazines.. and newspapers. I tried reading USA Today.. but it’s just not the same.. because USA Today.. doesn’t really, really affect us here in Canada.. in anyway. Ya.. i hate the staining fingers too.. 
i thought they changed and used some non-staining ones.. a long time ago..?? no..??

Hey…Gene,
