Tomorrow, at 6 o'clock on NTV7 you must watch Housewives' Holiday, an entertaining soap-opera by Mediacorp, Singapore!!!!
Housewives' Holiday
(translation of subtitles in Malay to English are in Italics for Ryan who might have forgotten his Malay)
Story revolves around three housewives (shades of Sex in City,and Desperate Housewives) Aiqin, Alice and Simei, dedicated houwives who work their finger to the bone for the family. Yet, their husbands betray them by having affairs and using money to gamble at Genting. The centre housewife is Ann Kok, or Alice who dresses well and has a fantastic figure, still, her husband strays.
(Don't be sad, maybe that woman is inventing the tale to hurt you : Simei tries to console Aiqin that her husband has not cheated on her)
The other woman: note how she dresses to snare Aiqin's husband..housewives do not dress like that
See her zebra-print tube dress?
(Divorce my wife? Didn't you say that you will not break up my family?)
He is naive to think that she wants only part of him, and will not wreck his life.
She pretends to placate him: (I am satisfied as long as we can maintain the relationship)
No wonder your husband likes me! Plain Chinese Tea!
(she orders plain chinese tea when mistress orders designer coffee)
He likens your relationship with him like tea-bags which has been used countless times: bland and tasteless!
Not only has she seduced her husband, now she insults and goads her!
He likens me to exquisite red wine and he is addicted! Intoxicated!
(Even the most stupid woman can feel it!)
She has been pretending that she does not know the affair, and her husband merrily sleeps with the other woman, thinking that she really doesn't.
(You have the smell of that perfume, through intimate relationship with that woman)
Tell-tale signs of the affair.
Feel happy to see me?
Alice believes in dressing up sexily and good grooming to keep her husband. Yet, he is seen here being surprised by a visit from his lover!
Of course they hit the sack!!! No this is not a soft porn movie....it is a family show!
(I will go shower, we go for dinner after that) When he is at the shower, she goes through his wallet and finds his address, where she goes to look him up!
(I am at work, I can't go back!) Lame! Lame excuses! Ladies, don't believe your husbands, ha ha!
It is so late, Wonder what has happened to our son?
At home, there is a crisis, his son has been arrested while he is having fun with his China doll.
China Doll believes he is unmarried.
Who are you? WHO ARE YOU?
His Lover? Are you sure?
No wonder I sense something funny! You are shameless!
(Girls, don't fall for sweet talking men, esp if they say they are not married)
Your mother is an invalid, I have to change her bedpan and urine cathether, I have to look after your wayward son, you just have fun outside!!!!!
I can't wait for tomorrow's episode! I have become a soap-opera addict!!!! Like a house wife!
