Editor's Letter: July 08

What a drastic overhaul MSR has been through, I must say, as a major change has been performed. That's right, we've all seen what our new Creative Editor's capable of, especially after her inspirational campaign speech on changes last month. With everything back in control this month, as I find the Editor's pen once again back in my right hand inking every single thought in me as I speak, let me officiate a warm welcome to April just for the record. I know I should be holding welcome parties for you, but here's one thing(just so you might know): a pat of appreciation on your back is louder than any party music. Ouch.

I'm back to kick some ass.

Let's move on with the great foundation laid by our CE and proceed to the next gear. It's the month of heroes as we can expect to see several of them roaming around us, and I'm not referring to our beloved heartland heroes. First up, it's "Hancock" who's all set for the rescue. Following up in quick succession, we have "Hellboy 2", Heroes from ROTK in "Red Cliff", "If I were Superman", Batman & the late Heath Ledger in "The Dark Knight", Rick O'Connell in "The Mummy 3", Mulder & Scully in "The X-Files Movie", and our very own Jack Neo in "Money No Enough 2". Not to forget the people behind the GST Credits that went into its second phase payout recently. Payment of the amount stipulated in a national payroll is quite a feat that probably not even the richest can achieve. Film junkies be anchored on alert to MSR.

We're also being on the frontline update of the current trends as the curtain has just drawn to a close at both the Milan & Paris Fashion Week that showcased the spring/summer 2009 men's wear collection from various influential designers, including those of major fashion houses. With the GSS still strong and striving, there's more reasons to log onto this lifestyle blog as all you fashionistas and shopaholics out there can use another opinion in style and class to advise the what's-in and what's-not for your retail therapy.

In June, we've seen what dinner you can find at two dollars short of twenty after our CE provided her first-hand experience at Cross Keys in Killiney Road. Now with just two days away to the upcoming Singapore Food Festival 2008, you might just find Chilli Crab, Satay and other savoury delicacies to satisfy your cravings. For a start, do head on to Lau Pat Sat for the Opening Celebration from 4-6 July. Don't feast on crap when you can check out what's tongue-pampering right here before you indulge in our glorious local fares.

Seems like MSR has almost everything covered to satisfy just about everyone. We hope to achieve that and we're all set to go.

Witty. Unique. Eclectic.
