SNAG vs METROSEXUAL

I was in bed almost time to turn in when i saw an old serial going on Channel 8. Yes, SNAG (Sensitive New Age Guy) or Xin Hao Nan Ren. Wow, that was a 4-5 year old show. It stars Wong Hei, Jeff Wang, Jason Oh, Mavis Hee, Samantha Toh and Casandra Susan See. When i woke up this morning , I flipped thru my album of collection and found the soundtrack. Yes, and it was a Wong Hei's autograph album.

I still remembered during the time when the show went on air in late 1999 . Then i was still a NS boy with lots of ambitions. Truthfully, i aspire to be a SNAG one day. Well, to lead a lifestyle of SNAG was cool. Having a little condo by yourself, with ur bed next to a window where it overlooks the beautiful skyline of Singapore. A simple deco will do to make it cosy.

You will wake up early in the morning in executive wear for work. Then meet up your friends at pub after work to gossip little things in life. How nice.... Of course, it will even be better if you have ur partner with you. SNAG is no longer "in" now. The more common term is METROSEXUAL.

Am i one? I wont say i am not. I work hard and play hard. I dun wear executive clothing to work. I dun hang ard Raffles Place area. I dun own a little condo by myself. BUT somehow, i do enjoy my work and my free time. I chilled out at clubs and gym. I meet my friends and love one over lunch and dinner. We gossip, anything and everything. Sometime, i listen to soothing music in my little room, reminiscing good old time. I also spent time reading tons of blogs to see how friends or even strangers are doing.

I am quite satisfied with wat i am having now. Of course, if i own a little condo, that will even be better. Looking back since 1999, I din manage to lead the kind of lifestyle Wong Hei led in the show. But i am not too bad either. hee.... I shall put in this way, this is Jeff's way of life. Not Jeff Wang hor.....
