I Thought What I'd Do Was, I'd Pretend I Was One Of Those Deaf-mutes.

2012 resolutions

2012-01-02T16:18:00.003+08:00

Looking back, I'm better off in terms of material and physical wealth, yet not any better off in terms of health and mental capacity. Every now and then, I felt that I've grew older yet not wiser.

It's funny that as I grow older, I seclude myself more from crowds and loses my ability to do any tedious calculations as compared to almost a decade ago. In fact, I realise I'm 1 year short of celebrating a decade of driving experience. So how's that for ageing?

I realise I may not be able to achieve all of these, but at least having something in mind's better than none at all:

1) Lose weight - I've "ballooned" to 79kg, which wasn't too bad given my height but this would skew my output/weight ratio. So let's aim for 75kg and keep it there yeah?

2) Drink less - looking back, I've been drinking almost every week. It's been a great drinking run, but I guess that contributed to (1) above as well. So let's see if I can cut it down by 25-30%?

3) Increase my income - going forward, I guess I am probably looking towards a career switch. Hopefully, I can realise my hope of having a 10% increment for the next job.

4) Be happy - somehow, it's just that darn hard to do so.

Random every now and then

2011-11-05T18:03:00.001+08:00

Don't be afraid to speak up, or to pursue your dreams.

For failing to do so, may leave you regrets and remorse for not trying.

Life is short. Don't make it worse by not pursuing your personal goals.

Uncertainty

2011-08-18T23:23:00.002+08:00

With each passing day, I'm feeling the heat of my new role.
Now that I'm a senior, I can no longer feign ignorance of many tasks, nor can I pretend not to care about the engagement.

This is the moment when all hell broke loose, and I start to have to deal with many administrative matters such as:
1) arranging for planning meeting & initial client meetings,
2) liasing with partner's secretaries to meet the partners,
3) talking with CFOs and CEOs and head of departments (oh wait, I already did some of these),
4) booking ~~slaves~~ staff on engagement & manage manpower requirements
5) and all other random shit.

All this while multi-managing several engagements at the same time. Little wonders why I'm getting the jitter.

Unfortunately, all these piles on and stresses me out prematurely.

I need a beer. Like.right.now.

Meanwhile, let's aim to cap OT hours for the FY under 100hrs...

glare

2011-07-11T19:07:00.001+08:00

In case you're wondering, yes I'm not dead yet.
Just back from an operation & recuperating as I type.

Guess when 1 ain't in the mood, all hell breaks loose.
Bah.

When life gives you lemons...

2011-06-03T15:43:00.001+08:00

Yes you can make lemonades outta them. But I would prefer to hurl them at the !^$#%@! who gave them to me. ^_^

Inertia

2011-05-21T15:21:00.002+08:00

Truth be told, I just want to sit around in my singlet and boxer shorts, and do nothing.
The inertia was simply too great. A couple of months ago when liquidblade briefly came back online, I contemplated retrieving and porting old entries over back to blogspot. I didn't.

Fast-forward to now, liquidblade is kind of dead now. If there's anyone to blame, it would probably be myself. A certain senior told me that I should have done so, as it is a reflection of myself and the growth I've experienced, the experiences I've been through.

Sometimes, escapism takes over the driver seat and all things spirals out of control. Right now, I am escaping from these problems.

Salvation

2011-05-19T03:06:00.003+08:00

Deep within, I know that I have self-condemned by behaviour.
Deep within, I desire for love and redemption.
Deep within, I know my other half loves me.
Yet deep within, I can't forgive myself for every other random things I have done.
Forgetting and Forgiving is too hard, when Hatred has sank its fangs deep within a corner of my heart.

Deep within, I seek salvation. And more importantly, a lasting inner peace.

Flashbacks

2011-04-10T12:24:00.002+08:00

I dreamt of an weird accident, whereby a motorbike collided against a car and flew towards me and I had to evade it.

Turning back and see, folks around gotten killed and injured, and I was frantically trying to save them. Even 995 and 911 didn't help, as the line just couldn't get through.

Shocked, scared, anxious and panicky, I have no idea what to do or how to help to save them.

I wonder what this dream is all about.

Food for thought

2011-03-31T00:54:00.000+08:00

俗话说的好：幸福是建立在他人的牺牲上。
So is your happiness obtained via other's sacrifices?

Irony...

2010-10-05T20:58:00.003+08:00

It's kinda sad not to be blogging actively or even taking an occasional peek at your own blog. Afterall, it's like a recollection of the good & bad, the ups & downs, the erection & the errectile dysfunction. Not exactly the last bit, but you get the picture yeah?

And what more can be worst, when your main blog fails and you have to fall back to your original blog. zzz.

Oh well. *brush dust off blogspot*

Via Jaywalk - Ngee Ann Poly Graduation Ceremony 2010

2010-05-28T18:56:00.002+08:00

This is what happen if u get an Ah Beng to emcee the graduation ceremony lah!

Nocturnal

2010-04-13T23:04:00.002+08:00

I almost forgot. I'm Nocturnal. That may explain all those dozing off at work.

Dead Beat

2010-04-13T00:54:00.000+08:00

But there's still the need to rant. Haiz. The irony of life.

Revival

2010-04-03T15:42:00.002+08:00

1 of those not-too-glamorous moments, when I actually felt like blogging random stuff but the liquidblade server is down again. blah.

Anyway 4-5 months of work. Real hard work, and I felt lots have changed.

For starters, I hardly go drinking, if any evar. Meal time become a luxury, so is internet access & it's related surfing.

News reading is a precious commodity as well, and no one cares if you feel stupid or overworked.

In a nutshell, this is how I feel...

If u're seeing this.......

2008-04-25T23:22:00.002+08:00

MOVED!!!!!!!

PLS CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE NEW FARM!!!

MOVED!!!

2008-02-27T20:28:00.002+08:00

Yesh... Yours truly has finally moved on....Courtesy of the folks @ Liquidblade.com.

The new moo moo farm is here. Do drop by!!!
[Pardon the construction works though!!]

Hacked

2008-02-03T16:47:00.000+08:00

The most unfortunate thing occurred to me last night.
Apparently my school email & domain password was hacked and changed without my permission.

After much confirmation with friends that the webby's not down, I'm certain it is not a case of forgetting a newly changed password cos:
1) I am NOT so stupid to forget my new password
2) There wasn't any initiation of change of passwords, and neither was the password going to expire soon.
3) I was still able to access my email @ 10pm but by 12MN, I was unable to instead.

Given that the IT dept will only be open tomorrow, I'll have to wait till then to get them to reset my password (since I forgot to register for SMS reset) and check if it was indeed a hack or error on the system's part.

Meanwhile, pray hard that nothing's lost for all my vital information for school and work's all in it.
[and my freaking com don't allow me to access offline. =*( ]

精神分裂

2008-01-29T18:15:00.000+08:00

莫个女生曾经对我说, “嘿，你有点酒醉的时候真好玩！”
While that really made me go -_- for a moment, all I could mouth was "orh..."

始终，这毕竟是事实...
由于我被太多的约束牵绊着，我实在无法对任何人表露出那躲藏在内心深处里我真正的那一面。

毕竟，我曾经因为那么做，而受到伤害。
一次又一次的创伤，令我实在无法完全去相信其他人...

唯一能让我不被那些约束牵绊着的，就是陷入“半酒醉”状态。（aka "high" or intoxicated)
这么一来，才能够唤醒那处于“沉睡”状态的另一个我...

死了！！我认为我患了精神分裂症...咳~

Summary of events...

2008-01-24T15:03:00.000+08:00

Past weeks have been spent drinking, drinking and trying to study while drinking.
Nothing much have changed though...

Meanwhile, some status update...
1) Renovation's 95% done but on halt till next week cos everyone is out on hols, meaning I wouldn't be ard to supervise due to class.

2) Reset of Cowboy Bar & Opening of applications to public. Machiam like China tio liberated, 中国开放 lidat. =P

And as usual Cowboy Caleb, the owner of the bar ~~cum brokeback gaylord cum sicko who indulge in horse pron & his stupid magic ponies~~, invites all who are interested & fun-loving to sign up and join us!!
Do join us for lots of endless hedonistic fun!!!
Upcoming event? MDM!!! MARTELL DEATH MATCH!!!
Sign in for more details...

3) Once again, drinking as usual.
For a change, drinking on Wed nite till Thurs 4+AM when class's at 8.30AM on Thurs = instant zombie.

Thanks to a certain unca (not disclosed) who invited me for the concert, i managed to catch Clash in action...

Extremely crowded last night at the venue with lots of folks showcasing their cam to snap a shot of them.
And my N82 just can't take a decent shot... =*(

Nevertheless, it was a great night... =D

4) I was 'assaulted' last night. Bah.
Thank god my 'green white' ish still intact.
No thanks to the other unca who keep 'instigating' me to do sth not-so-nice...

Meanwhile, Hell Week #1 coming...
Time to get busy I guess...

Renovation - Day 3

2008-01-18T13:11:00.000+08:00

Apparently, the workers were either:
1) back from Tao Huay break (Jaywalk & his PCK tao huay break thingy...)
2) On steroids (cos there's only 2 of them)

Cos by the time I got home after night classes, tiles and pretty much laid up to like 50% of the dining hall,

(I still no like the mound there. Mounds are better.)

And 90% of the living room...

With the exception of the balcony which requires HDB approval to level it (WTF?!), I foresee the rest of the hall should be done by Fri/Sat??

Pretty fast given there's only 2 workers who are mixing the cement and laying the tiles...

[The foreign workers does mainly those heavyweight stuff like clearing of debris and moving of materials]

Renovation - Day 1 & 2

2008-01-16T19:19:00.000+08:00

Remember around 6+ mths ago when the tiles popped at home???

After a long long time, we finally decided to have all the tiles removed and replaced with new tiles since the other tiles are pretty hollow below and at risk of popping up too like their earlier counterparts.

Day 1
On Tues the workers arrived and started to remove the existing tiles with their drilling equipments.
By the time I've gotten home from school in the evening, everything's been fully drilled and in the mids of being cleared.

Fastforward to 8pm...
Voila...All the tiles cleared and the materials shifted indoors...

Day 2
As usual, wasn't around in the day. Progress today was kind of slower than expected, since when I gotten home, all the sand are piled nicely in mounds (not THAT mound) at home, making movement kinda difficult.
Even my dog who decided to 'escape' from the room was smart enuff to avoid it..

To my surprise however, only 1 worker was cutting the tile, mixing and applying the cement, and laying them in place.
[What happened to the other 2 that I saw in the morning?!]

Comes nightfall at 7pm, only the small section near the entrance/kitchen was completed.

Not exactly fabulous in terms of progress, but at least it beats having nothing to walk on.

While equipments like spades and barrows are pretty much kept properly, I can't help taking a shot of this:

Cos for a moment, I wonder why the heck would someone leave the cap on the spade.
So sibei RIP...[too bad not helmet]

Now comes the $1000 question...[Not as difficult as the million dollar qn...]

If the person starts laying tiles at the entrance inwards...
How is he going to use the wheelbarrow to transfer stuff into the house w/o damaging/scratching/cracking/etc the tiles there???

I'll be glad if someone cares to answer my queries...

MEME: 10 things that make me happy

2008-01-15T16:53:00.000+08:00

Courtesy of Jas ~~not~~ who tagged me with her ~~menses..YUCKS!~~ meme.
So basically "Just list 10 things that make you happy on a regular basis. Hence, pay raises that typically come once a year won’t count. These are things that make you smile at least once a week…"

So here's the 10 things, not in any freaking order... (lazy to prioritise...)
1. Sleeping. MooMoo needs to zzz to be happy
2. Drinking. 1 glass a day keeps the Heart Attack away...
3. When folks say hi to me even though I don't bump into them oftenly. [esp. so at nightspots]
4. Babe-watching in school...
5. Encounter with cute stuff
6. ~~Happy Meal!~~ Helping others
7. Lazing ard doing nothing..
8. Food. Subsistence precedes all other nonsense.
9. NIL
10. NIL

Thou shall not tag others cos everyone probably done it alr.
besides, I can't think of 10 things oso.
Aku not so happening + happy + god-knows-what-other nonsense. lalala...

Hello Kitty

2008-01-13T04:47:00.000+08:00

Sorry for the LONG absence (though i think u readers probably don't really care).
Have been out drinking for a LONG time...

Anyway....
Awhile back in end Dec 07, Sanrio announced new products specially targeted for guys. [Link]
While I'm pretty much a sucker for getting cute stuff ~~for gals~~, Hello Kitty for guys seems pretty ghey in a way or another.

And fast forward a couple of weeks, guess what I found...?

And in a LIVE BAND pub/bar/~~club~~, no less.
This ish da bomb, I must say. =)
VIVA LA REVOLUTION!!!

2007 vs 2008

2008-01-05T20:43:00.000+08:00

A couple of days late, but this entry still pretty much serves many purposes...
For starters, from an accounting perspective comparison of historical performance vs forecast gives us an insight into variances and help formulate new forecasts.
Also, for the sake of a written record, since human memories are fragile.

In 2007...
- Gotten my best result evar so far after suffering poor results and a near-miss heartache (of dean's) in May. [BEST BDAE PREZZIE EVAR!]
- experienced being 'mod-less' during 1st week of sch..[stupid bidding system...]
- Thru my brudder-cum-boss JF, discovered new and fun places with live performances...
- Broke my NY resolution of quitting drinking, and drank like a fish after exam. [Not exactly a gd thing, but that's altogether a different thing]
- Met up for the 1st time with Uncle Jay, who never fails to make us all luff with his hilarious tales. [“又是你干的好事！！”]
- Took the plunge in many things. Some good, other bad. [Let's forget abt the bad, shall we?]
- Realised I tend to be quite a sucker AKA Robert AKA 菜头 and do stupid things sometimes...

As such, in 2008 I wish for the following...
- Dean's List!!!! (B+ avg... =P)
- To get my OBU degree by Dec 08
- If possible, to take my 2 option papers in Dec 08 and to pass them! =)
- To gain a better understanding of myself and to rediscover myself again...[cliche...]
- To clinch that internship at either Big 4 or with Credit Suisse, Standchart, Citibank, etc...
- To have a chance to celebrate my bdae properly.
- For better health, and a healthier lifestyle.
- To discover a new love for hobbies, pastime, or anything...
- Try not to be too much of a 菜头 in 2008. [Since I just did a 菜头 on the 1st fri of 08..]

Guess that's pretty much abt it.
A simple yet crazy list of wishes...

Dilemma

2007-12-22T16:38:00.001+08:00

Once again, I put myself in a troubled position of having to make decisions in messy situations...
Haiz....

Only if...such things doesn't exist.
All in fear of...a repeat of history.
Some things are never meant to be revisited, I guess.
Or should I?

Lyrics: Picture Perfect Love

2007-12-21T00:56:00.000+08:00

Picture Perfect Love / m-flo loves MONKEY MAJIK
作詞: m-flo/MONKEY MAJIK
作曲: m-flo/MONKEY MAJIK
Taken from www.corichan.com [pls kindly support them!]

* All that time that you were standing by my side
She's that picture-perfect kind
I can't believe I was so blind
Do you remember that time, you know I stepped across that line
I made you cry and that's my crime
I wish that I could just rewind

It's the evening and you've been complaining
About our situation and all my deceiving
I know…that everything's going SLOW
And if you wanna feel better I can tell ya that it's gonna be great
yeah it's gonna be good
OH-OH-OH but I would be lying to you

But these days I'm changing
Meeting new faces
How am I supposed to be
And my feelings for you seem to be changing
Looking back…don't look back on me

* repeat

When I RUN I gets NOWHERE
Because your love is on my mind and I can't let go BABE
When I HIDE she finds me still
I never should have let her into my LIFE…but she came saw and
Conquered it. EVERY part of me LEFT
When you settled out that's REALITY just settled IN
Of course I tried to BATTLE IT, TACKLE IT. when PROBLEMS got out of HAND
ESTABLISHING the BEST from the situation THAT I'M IN
…Couldn't BELIEVE that it could END
If LOVING YOU IS WRONG. I don't want to be RIGHT…is that a SIN?
Your name is tattooed on my heart IT'S PERMANENT
Your voice keep loopin my mind…I SAMPLED IT
The TRACK I'M IN/SHACKLES ME can't get out If I can PICK
All the TRICKS to make it RIGHT once AGAIN
You know that's like trying to make SODOM and GOMORRHA IMMACULATE
TO make us 2 come together's MIRACULOUS

* repeat

Yeah dawg you said it and I really think
You meant it I've been through it
All before and I'm about to get in it again,
Whats happenin' making new friends
Hoping it don't come to an end and in the meantime
I will show you what I mean
Let's think of it another way.
Everything we do and say.
Defines who we are as we live out each day
What we did was wrong at the time
But it helps us go back and rewind.
It's a mistake, but it ain't no crime
kasanari au no sa
tsumari sore ga ai

I said good bye
I didn't know
That it would all turn out this way
But now I know
I realize
And I can learn from my mistakes

But these days I'm changing
Meeting new faces
How am I supposed to be
And my feelings for you seem to be changing
Looking back…don't look back on me

* repeat

Different...

2007-12-20T17:19:00.000+08:00

I had always suspected that I had a different set of thinking from my uni peers, despite cracking the same lame jokes, saying the same dumb things, and getting the same lousy grades in school.

Ok, perhaps not exactly the same in everything, but it kind of became apparent when Charles & I were out with XF & the other gals. [the '87, '88s]

So in an attempt to 'ka jiao' 1 of their gal fren who was out 'pak tor-ing' at Geographer supposedly, we end up there not seeing anyone but them being 'suakus', wanted to check out the live performance...

And apparently this happened in a conservation between us & the Waitor (W):
W: "Now is happy hr, bottle @ $138, later $188 liao."
XF: "eh...eh...Do u all have Midori Sprite??"
W: "Huh?!?!" *thinking SI MI LAI DE...*
W: "U wait hor..." -go to counter and check with the bartender-
~after a while~
W: "Sorry, we don't serve such drinks..."
XF: "Orh ok... what abt...Screwdriver???"
W: "Huh?!?!"
XF: "eh...it's Vodka Orange..."
W: "Orh ok...1 jug only ah???" -eyes wide open while counting 6 of us-
XF: "eh yah..."

And apparently, it was a bad idea since it's freaking overpriced @ $48.
Should had gone Zouk, we thought. BAH!

Lots of thanks though to Lex, who happens to work there...
[If not u gals probably won't get to camwhore with the 2 thai guys that they find cute. Or was it 3? Oh well..]

And a random conversation between the 2 of us:
L: "Oh u're here!!! 原来 u all are the 1 who ordered dunno midori sprite or barcardi sprite..."
C: "Eh yah...wasn't me...the gals dunno si mi si bottles..." *paiseh*

Perhaps I have been deeply influenced by my older peers so much that I find drinking from jugs no longer as fun, or interesting.
Rather, bottles seems to be more economically feasible and viable, and presents an additional source of entertainment (given the right crowd) or even an extra weapon (in the hands of a skilled wielder).

To end off with, I ain't going back to Arena anymore.
A rather traumatising experience for me last night.
Don't ask me why. U probably know if U were there. BAH!

Drink, Reflect, Drink more...

2007-12-15T14:56:00.000+08:00

A perfect ending for a not-too-fab-start term.
15 weeks of hard work, just for that 2 weeks of anxiety waiting for results.
With results that far exceeds my pessimistic expectations and optimistic forecast.
[Nothing though compared to 6 mths of hard work & that 2 mths of waiting every semi-annum.]
Doubt there's chance for repeating such a feat though since the higher I climb, the harder it gets.

On a side-note, it took me 1/2 a bottle of Black Label to realise I've never moved on at all.
That I'm still holding on to a certain past, even though I shouldn't be.
That I thought I have let go, but I haven't.

It's painful to see myself in such a state, I conclude.
Though there isn't much I can do about it.
Into 2008, hoping it'll be much better...

GRRRR

2007-12-09T22:21:00.000+08:00

My right eye has suddenly been twitching non-stop from irritation and god-knows-what-else.
Maybe it's a sign something bad's gonna happen.

[Or perhaps it's time I go for my 3rd review to see if I suay suay kena eye infection. BAH!]

Reason...

2007-12-07T04:33:00.000+08:00

After much brooding over the reason and purpose for drinking when people are feeling down and low, especially from relationship problems, I can only come to this conclusion:

"The reason as to why people drink in face of any problems is perhaps because your glass of alcoholic drink will never betray you, whereby colleagues, relationships and all other matters would."

Exceptionally true for relationships, I thought.
Or perhaps a case of hasty generalisation for me.

On other news,
Perhaps I 'might' be trying to take on the role of a teaching assistant again, but this time for another module.
An unexpected twist of events, given the surprise in results forecast. lalalaa....
[Seems like analyst report lidat, with the forecast figures and surprise...=P]

Bunnies

2007-12-06T13:00:00.001+08:00

U know what? I always liked bunnies... =)

Another Yr...22

2007-11-30T23:55:00.000+08:00

Not exactly just another year, I supposed.
Lots of events, lots of ups and downs.
With exceptional peaks and pitfalls too...

With some honourable mentions....

1) 2006 Dec Y-Camp

- Watching my ~~kid~~ beneficiary weijie took the leap of faith finally after refusing to jump off the flying fox tower for at least 5+ mins...

- Learning alot from weijie despite the brief 3D2N stay with him during Y-camp and our age and mentality difference as well.

2) Paddle & Pedal (P&P) 2007

-Finally the 1st activity which I took part in for SMUX...

- Revisited ubin via kayaking over & cycling all over the place, and camwhored like mad with people and wild boar(s) alike. =P

- And not forgetting, meeting some of the cute babes available in school...

3) Kind of attended my 1st concert @ Esplanade

- Was so thrilled that Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra's performing in SG during Mosaic music fest that I willingly parted with that little bit of $$ to catch them in action...

- And I must say, it's $$ well-spent...

4) Took part in 1st Sudoku Challenge 2007 by Brands

- Made it to the Finals as top 30 only to walk home with a small prize... =(

5) Relationship & Love

- Fell in love truly for the 2nd time...

- Only to fall out of it 5 mths later feeling broke, broken, and depressed at pit bottom level..

6) Depression

- Combated depression while going for chalets, organising and helping out at camps, bidding for mods (which make me do all the WRONG THINGS!) and of cos, managing classes...

- Did lots of crazy things like...seeing my own blood...cutting...etc, though wasn't that serious.

- Got chided like mad and didn't understand why...

7) Uni-Y FOC

- 4D3N of fun, bonding and community service for the participants...

- (lots of shit for us though...)

8) SMUX Camp 07

- 1st event that I kind of participate but as a ~~slacker~~ helper.

- As usual, did lots of nonsense...

- Unkind weather gave us rain for like god-knows-how-often.

- Lucky though for us, cos got eyecandy all the time... =P

9) Bay Escapade 07

- 1st time organising outdoors event as an org. comm, only to know the amt of shit and hardwork required.

- needless to say, it was full of tiring nonsense but it's rewarding...

10) Blood Donation

- Not a big deal but true to my vow to benefit mankind, I stay true to that nonsense and donate my worthless blood to save u all undeserving humans...

11) Teaching Assistant

- Become a TA for the fun of it, only to realise there's the need to sit in for 12 classes + do 2 hrs of weekly consultation sessions just for $500...

- Got 'abused' by frens who are taking that mods but from diff classes.

- Needless to say, life was unbearable if not for the *cough cough* cuties who always come for consultation.

- My secret to having them come back for more?? Teach them the ~~wrong things~~ the right thing but in a confusing and brief way. =P

12) New project mates...

- Yes yes, I know... U're probably gonna dish out punishment on me for dropping charles & deb in fav of the tri-gal grp, but it's always better to work with diff people...

- (So u know who in sch u can work with in future...)

- It was lots of fun though joking and crapping during project meetings...

13) Drink, Drank, Drunk

- Went for the 1st drinking session with sch folks...

- Got the 1st folk from school drunk/half-drunk/high-until-drunk too. =P

- No prize for guessing who.

14) Lasik *ZAP ZAP!!*

- Spurred by madness, depression and a dash of vanity, I went for the ops during the break...

- 1+ mth of post-ops suffering, a lifetime (I hope so..) of clarity...

15) Anal Doggie...

- Needless to say, that asshat's still surviving well under me...

- He kinda took on the irritating side of me though...[Like fetching the ball and not giving it to u.]

- And he has that sweet and lovely cute side of him too, especially when sleeping. [Just like me too...=P]

16) Belated Bdae celebration @ Geographer

- An unexpected, unplanned, unforecasted msg from brudder JF that gotten me down...

- Needless to say, really thankful and glad that he celebrated for me + intro this great place to me.

Special mention for the year:

Joelle 阿姨, for giving me both good and bad advices.

Mostly the bad and farked up ones though. lalala. =P

And needless to say, 1 of those who will not hesitate to make me 'TAH' if required.

TMD...

Brudder JF, aka my Towkay...

For being so nice and well in a way, teaching me alot of stuff.

AKA the 社会大学 way...

Well that's all for this 1/2-farked, 1/2 great year.

Hopefully a better year after year... =P

End & Start

2007-11-30T11:16:00.001+08:00

The end of 1st round, the starting of 2nd...
No one ever said you can rest when you're done with work.

Day 1: Stupidity at work

2007-11-28T02:21:00.000+08:00

Day 1 of exam was met with extreme stupidity on my part.
Thinking (wishfully) that the last week's topic wouldn't be out, I decided NOT to print out that week's notes.
For the open-book exam, that is.

Imagine my horror when at least 5 out of 45 questions came out from that topic.

Sometimes, I wish life could just be a little simpler.
Meanwhile, I need eyedrops too for the teary eyes...

Time-less...

2007-11-25T12:39:00.000+08:00

In the race between you and time,

Bet on time...

*Countdown to 1st paper...*

Happyness

2007-11-22T15:21:00.000+08:00

No one ever said happyness is readily available.
It only presents itself at random to those who are willing to find it.
However, why is it so freaking hard to find it?

No one ever said it was easy either.
But I seriously question the feasibility of discovering it.
Perhaps this whole lot of stories about the pursuit of happyness was all but bullshit.

*Perhaps people should learn to seek happyness thru alternate means like smoking weeds and drinking petrol. Then they'll all get brain damage and be happy evar after. Period.*

Day 2, Week 14

2007-11-21T00:48:00.000+08:00

Day 2 of mugging over...
Still as sick as ever...
As usual, suspected throat inflammation or something lidat...
Shall see the doc then else later really puke blood...

Bah. Painful to swallow or even eat.
Buy me soup or porridge k?
Kopitiam vouchers accepted now too! =P

Updated Wishlist

2007-11-19T13:12:00.000+08:00

1) NTUC vouchers - For retail therapy + sustaining my dietary needs
2) Popular/Kino/Borders vouchers - for all my stationary + reading material needs
3) A McD treat - I could use a Happy Meal... (Don't KOPE THE TOY!)
4) Simple wishings - It's just so simple. Simplicity is bliss, remember?
5) Cold Hard Cash - The easiest gift evar...
6) Pencil Case - a big & simple yet nice 1 will do. (P.S. I dun want those can transform 1 wor...)
7) Pi Pa Gao - So that I won't puke blood again...

As usual, nov exam ain't the time to be happy cos it's associated with sickness.
Been feeling kinda unwell with sore throat and stuff lidat...
& it only gotten worse when I spat out phelgm which contain a bright red piece of blood clot.
Now how's that for a wake-up call...?

So meanwhile, no more late-night MacD for me or whatsoever. Bah~

Blog Reading Level

2007-11-18T12:26:00.000+08:00

Say, isn't it kind of insulting...? Bah.

Screwed

2007-11-17T18:49:00.000+08:00

Q: How U know U're truly screwed?
A: When there's less than ard 1 week to prep for exam and U still sleep 1/2 the day away just cos "U dun feel like studying".

I'm screwed to the core sia...bah.

Time erosion

2007-11-16T05:15:00.000+08:00

Perhaps the passage of time has dulled my senses...
To the extent I am no longer who I am...

The lack of realisation of one's wants and needs nevertheless further confuse my desire for self-knowledge & self-actualisation.
Not to mention, additional knowledge may not necessarily be a good thing, for it brings about extra suffering.
Ignorance is bliss, I concur. [As usual.]

I wish I never had to know or face such painful facts again. But I can't.

Hated...

2007-11-15T20:55:00.000+08:00

Just for your info...
I really hated this song....Olivia's A Little Pain, that is.

Just like any emo nonsense rubbish...
I really hated it...

Wishlist 2007

2007-11-13T18:30:00.000+08:00

With exams loaming around the corner, procrastination and reluctance have began to set its evil claws on me...
Even so, there's no reason NOT to come up with a crappy wishlist for this year...

Thus as follows, a stupid and simple wishlist for the stupid and simple cow.
Simplicity is Bliss.

1) NTUC vouchers - I too need retail therapy in the form of grocery shopping k?! tibits and drinks! hurhurhur..
2) Popular/Kino/Borders vouchers - every now and then I could use a good book + LOTS of stationaries...
3) A McD treat - I could use a Happy Meal... (Don't KOPE THE TOY!)
4) Simple wishings - It's just so simple. Simplicity is bliss, remember?
5) Cold Hard Cash - "Money Money Money...It's so easy..."

Meanwhile, I've been contemplating whether to celebrate at MoS this year.
With FOR factors being the MoS membership + members bdae package (2 bottles + 1 champagne) and AGAINST factors being the resource constraint (I busted my budget at Zouk the other day) + exams on the 5th & 12th Dec, it's really hard to decide if to go ahead with any plans or whether to even go ahead at all...
Despite this, I really wanted a nice gathering...

Limits

2007-11-09T10:05:00.000+08:00

Sometimes, one just have to admit he's old.
Buying 2 trays of shooters, and starting to jio ppl to tah ain't really my style...
Not to mention, the risk of a post-drinking accident...

But sometimes...
U just wish U are on the wrong side of the equation.
Only then do U feel U're truly free from being bound by shackles.

Void

2007-11-08T20:47:00.000+08:00

Void. Guess it's not a good fren of liquor. BAH.
Being weary of this entire boring lifestyle and the system is one thing.
Being needy for attention is another.
Sometimes I just don't understand my needs and priorities.
Bah.

On a side note...

Taken from icanhascheezburger.com

Somehow the foto above always reminds me KM and his pussy. (Ok that sounded so wrong.)

[Whoever disagree, pls voice it out. Otherwise it's taken that u know what I'm toking abt.]

Random Madness...

2007-11-04T20:30:00.000+08:00

Right now... I endured 3 cycles of sleeping at 5am and waking up at god-knows-what-time for meetings. (Read: 9/10am)

With a crazy project at hand, it's hard to stay sane.
Or rather, hard to reject insanity.
Not with just only 1 project and yet an hectic deadline.

Dr Yap will definitely not be pleased to know how I abuse those new found eyes of mine...

No rest for the wicked, indeed...

Inhumane

2007-11-01T23:38:00.000+08:00

It's hard to feel humane when I'm working literally 24/7, with deadlines back to back.
Times like these, I almost forgot I'm human.
That I still need food and sleep.
That I still follow Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
That there's the need for social interaction...

寂寞与孤单...还真是难受...

I wonder if anyone understands how it feels like...

Sick, Morale, Motivation...

2007-10-26T02:16:00.000+08:00

Repeat after me:
Whatever doesn't kill me makes me stronger...
Whatever doesn't kill me makes me stronger...
Whatever doesn't kill me makes me stronger...
...
DAMN...It must have been the biggest goddamn fallacy present evar.
Been down with consistent bouts of heaty-ness & nosebleed.
Not to miss out, that annoying pain in da eye & the aching pain in the left elbow.
I think my elbow plays tennis now... ('ha ha ha'...bah. but it does have hints of aches and pain)

On a side note, things are pretty much better now with the eyes.
Vision hours are significantly longer without as much side-effects (migranes, irritations, dryness, etc).
But the right eye's still having problem with activation. bah.

Guess I'll check with the ~~cute nurses~~ doc what's wrong during the checkup later...

Nightmare

2007-10-20T21:09:00.000+08:00

I have been trying to deny acknowledgement of it...
But I guess it's inevitable...

My right eye's vision is worsening.

Bah. Hope the doc can detect why during the checkup next fri.

Disappearance...

2007-10-20T12:57:00.001+08:00

It's amazing how some people can just disappear suddenly without any trace or signs...
And the even amazing thing? People who are still around can completely forget your existence...

Perhaps it's time I master such a stint for my personal use.

Day 8...

2007-10-19T14:21:00.000+08:00

Pretty much better now, though I'm still loafing my right eye for being so relatively inperfect compared to the left.
Besides, the dryness & irritation's still pretty much ard though not lasting as long. Bah..

On a side note, midterms' pretty screwed.
I never ever saw such cocked-up sucky grades before. BAH.

Meanwhile, back to trying to crank-start the system.
Procrastination is my best fren at the moment...

Emo-ness

2007-10-12T23:35:00.000+08:00

I guess crying is the new drinking.

I tear-ed. With red bloodshot eyes & an annoying runny nose.
I cried. For 2~3 hours straight.
Till my tear glands were almost out of tears.

It hurts. But it certainly feel good crying.
Though I doubted anyone who sees that would think the same too..
Machiam like I emo until jialat jialat. Never emo until lidat before k...

To put it in perspective, it feels as though U just removed ur gas mask in the CS gas chamber.
Runny noses, teary eyes. And the worst thing? U can't touch them... BAH~!!

Lots of thanks to Lynn who rushed over after interview to pick me up and send me back...
Really appreciated it lots sia... -Hug w/o physical contact- =P

Meanwhile, let's see how things go...
Afterall, Seeing is believing.

Random PUI PUI PUI

2007-10-12T01:18:00.000+08:00

Wed night spent at Zouk Winebar was well-spent with Mr. Koh, XF, jen, ~~dodo~~ dody & YL.
Lots of crapping, endless scandalous fotos. Topped with 1-for-1 'cheap' booze for all.
1 of the key nonsense that XF crapped was abt the old HAPPY. (u know which 1. the 1 at Tg Pagar..)

Anyway she was exclaiming that nice guys are either:
1) Attached/Married
2) Monks
3) Gay
4) Ugly & Fudgy
5) Dumb
6) Some/All of the above

If I ever fall into this category, I'll pick (3) , (4) & (5). [Cos I got 自知之明, so i chose (4) & (5).]
This way, at least no one dares to lay hands on my insurance claim.
[So I can freaking donate them all to charity!]

Anyway it was like a freaking SMU Fuckfest last night. Met Edward, Russell, Kinseng & other folks there.
I think most of the SSU folks were there, along with the dance folks and perhaps the more happening people from Biz. [Acc ppl mugging in lib. lalala...]
It was packed like mad at winebar already, I swear.
Mambo side was worse.

It's kind of disappointing yet of a sort of relief that I didn't went Mambo after that with the gals.
[Although I wanted to.]
No, I didn't have any meetings or what's not the next morning [proj mate sick, so meeting cancelled.]
And yes, the queue's pretty long that I decided no point going. ~~since i might not get free priority entry as citibank cardholder~~
+ I just don't believe in spending more for the night and not getting high and drunk.
No I'm not drunk. I'm pretty much thirsty still, though tired. =*(
Besides, 10 jugs only for 6 of us, Dody's pretty gone and I'm on auto-pilot cos I'm FREAKING sleepy.

So bad I had to stop over for bak kut teh cos I'm sleepy and tired. Bah.
Guess I need to rest more in advance if I plan to drink next time.

Anyway another all-time nonsense from Biz Analysis class today as illustration for IT strategies...

"A good example will be comparing a maid & a wife.
When u're single, it's more affordable to outsource & get a maid cos u dun haf that much activity to reap EOS. Thus outsourcing generates savings.
However when activity increases till a point where the maid is more costly, u get married. Then u can insource and be an outsourcer for others!"

With classes like these, it's hard to fall asleep. Though I still do.
There's no rest for the wicked, remember?

On a sidenote, facebook does lots of nonsense.
U suddenly realise that many of those cute frens of urs were all attached. Bah.
As though those gals are like slots for JAP101. Taken up immediately with high bids @ the 1st instance possible.

Anyway a brand new day tomorrow. Let's see how things go. =P

Disruptions

2007-10-10T11:45:00.000+08:00

When the world seems to be against u...
When everyone takes what you say at face value & not with a pinch of salt...(perhaps they like it salty, thus many pinches of it..)

Perhaps it's high time for me to...
Wave my hooves and say, "BAH!!!"

Like what someone told me during a dinner...
"If you dun like it, if u're annoyed, just don't comment lor."
And indeed he's right. Perhaps I should really do so.

There's afterall a limit as to how right people can get.
Especially when they're whining about something when others (especially their other 1/2) are alright with it.
A typical case of complaining abt "how poor you are when ur S/O's willing to 同甘共苦 with you", or how fat you are when everyone says you're just right.
It's pretty annoying at times.

AND MIND U. I'm fat [internally] and poor too. BAH.
[My arteries are 1/2 clogged...bah]

Reflect, Repell, Refract...

2007-10-09T03:47:00.000+08:00

It's hard to say there's nothing wrong when you're still up at such inhumane hours drinking away alone while wondering what's exactly wrong.
In fact, to even be up till so late during a break is considered taboo & pure madness.

Times like these, it's best yet hardest to reflect on yourself.
As the saying goes, "it's hard to be happy unless you know what you want."
Indeed, it's really hard to be even satisfied, even harder still to be happy.

4 more days till a change. Abeit a physical 1.
I could use a mental 1 though. And an emotional change.
With uncertainties, there's a need for drastic changes...
Especially when there's an unsaid reliance on me by 4 other project mates. (NOT THAT I WANT TO be relied on.)

"There's no rest for the wicked", indeed.
Perhaps it's time to revisit 1 of those forsaken persona of mine from the long-gone past...

On a side note, any kind soul care to enlighten me on what's the difference between the normal Macallan 12 yrs and Macallan Elegancia?
Cos can't really seem to tell the difference...

Midterm Break, Project Deadline(s), Pending Ops

2007-10-08T21:48:00.000+08:00

Right on top of my To-Do list for this 1 week midterm break, I has the most unsightful erxin irritating sian task to do...
"Corp Rep meeting at 9am at blah blah blah..."

Bah. 3 hrs of unproductive nonsense, followed by a equally nonsensical lunch at Soup Spoon, where I had to put up with not-so-nice soup and long-time-no-see (but not so familiar) sec sch friends.
But thank god for nice and sweet project mates.
[Jess: YAH LAH YAH LAH! u all very sweet and nice lah..wait diabetic den u know..Diabetic EQUAL wor..]

Apparently, we had such nonsensical discussion that we hop from topics to topics. Of cos though, I was asked of some not-so-nice stuff which I 'nicely' answer without full disclosure.
Afterall, full disclosure is never my style. Especially without any statutory requirements.
I do lie alot, remember? [So don't take my words for anything. Esp. those coming for consultations.]

On the topic of project deadline(s)... There's only 1... though it's a shitty 1. Bah.
Life can't get any shitter than that...
Once again, thank god for nice project mates. =P

Meanwhile...Fri's coming...Lalala...

The Amazing Race...

2007-10-05T00:14:00.000+08:00

On Wed, I just had the most ridiculous midterm evar...

A 4-man group assignment.
The terms & condition?
To deliver the audit planning memo to the prof's office within 12 man-hrs.
[And off she went back to her office in another building to wait for us to slog away at it...]
The penalty? -20% for late submission. Bah.

I had to admit while the total of 12 man-hrs was ridiculously short for the assignment especially for the 4-man grps, it's been kinda of fun...
All the random luck of being assigned random grpies...(I dun wanna think too much abt my grpmates liao...haiz...)
Not to mention, the mad frenzy in typing out the report...
And the best part? Us hogging the printer in printing room like no one's business.

The order of movement?
From classroom to printing room [Biz sch still] to Acct sch's office. Bah.
Imagine 6, 7 grps running over to the office. What a crazy sight. Bah...

Anyway, the thur class did the same funny nonsense as well.
Guess we're all pretty crazy afterall. =P

Bad Karma

2007-10-02T13:03:00.000+08:00

I wonder if it's the dumb shirt I worn yesterday, or some nonsense I did but didn't realise.
Cos recently I've been experiencing dumb bouts of random bad luck.

1) Did the quiz today, only to be told we need to indicate whether it's (U) or (F) as well... [1x major blow to my pride as TA]
2) Realise no one cleared the letterbox last night and was surprised MX team actually sent the tix to me by mail!!!

There u go, the movie tix.. =P

3) The problem is, the tix's for tonite's movie. BAH.
4) Audit midterm tml, + Audit ACCA class tonite. BAH BAH.
5) I haven't finish reading everything, courtesy of weird events popping up. BAH.
6) Random bouts of mild stress kicking in...

With a life like this, I certainly need lots of vice to counterbalance it. =(

I guess there's no rest for the wicked afterall...

*updated* I just realised I made another mistake with batches.
There's no 2.5 batch in allocation of batch-driven overheads!!! arghhh...
That sucks... Super mega blow to ego... (That's like the dumbest mistake anyone can make...evar!)
Just when you thought the feeling of knowing sth's wrong but not sure what is bad enuff, think again...
Knowing sth's wrong & knowing exactly what but not being able to change anything's even worse. FARK.

1st Oct...

2007-10-01T00:32:00.000+08:00

To all the ~~deprived childhood folks~~ people I know in the world,

HAPPY CHILDREN'S DAY!!!!

In Cowboy Caleb's words, "MAY U HAVE A MAGIC PONY!!!"

P.S. while you're having fun or bringing ur kids out to world or whatsoever, please spare a thought for the poor kids in Africa and other 3rd world countries, and kindly make a small donation to them.
Every single cent counts. Thanks.

Happyness is...

2007-09-30T02:03:00.000+08:00

(No, it's sitting in the toilet and reading while happily shitting away...That's too Mugger-ish...)

Happyness is...

1) Knowing u can nod away while reading w/o a worry for the world...(or the scent)

2) Knowing there are always friends who remember u and know what's going on in your life, even though u dun see them ard...

3) when long-time-no-see frens are still nice and care for u...

4) knowing frens will stop u even if u hate it cos it's for ur sake...(bah, dun stop me frm drinking k? =P)

5) And lastly...it's when you know no matter where u go & what u do, there'll always be someone who will support u.

Down...Again

2007-09-27T15:31:00.000+08:00

I had the horror of discovering I'm sick again (yes... I usually refuse to acknowledge that I'm sick until I'm really sick) when I've been coughing non-stop even though the flu subsided.

The key indicator that sets off the alarm in my mind?
Coughing so badly that I coughed out my Big Mac lunch set (Bah, there goes $6+)...
And not to mention, bits and traces of blood in the foam i spurt out. [Really bad abrasion in either the windpipe or esophagus...)

Guess something she said to me awhile back (quite a long while) was pretty true...
"U're pretty stubborn at times...Especially when u're ill..."
Well guess what? U're pretty right on that. But oh well...

As such, thou shall make a trip down to the clinic in sch tml...
Before heading over to the gym and hopefully not 'share' the joy. lalala... =P

Burnout

Foto Surprise - Hey Gorgeous!!

2007-09-25T22:24:00.000+08:00

Imagine my astonishment when I login into Facebook and saw these fotos on my frens' picture updates...

Michelle Chia!!!!

&.....
Fiona Xie~!!!

Arghh... -peng/flip/concussed/peng san-

Guess this proves 1 thing...

"Ask & it shall be given..."

Even HP cam oso can lor...

-saddened-

OH well...Just another not so typical day of sch... =*(

Hey Gorgeous...

2007-09-25T12:57:00.001+08:00

Right now, Fiona Xie, Desmond Koh, Ben Yeo & guest host Michelle Chia's in sch filming Hey Gorgeous.
Marcus & I met Jeanie, and we tried 'promoting' Jolene & Sze Hui, who were shy abt it + they had to go off for income tax class. Bah.
And we're wondering where's Kit & the rest...

From what I heard from Heng, apparently they already did a 'QC' of the nominees and kinda 'rehearsed' the programme last week.
So they don't really find other cuter folks if they encounter them... Or do they? (dunno leh...)

Anyway, too concerned with tml's quiz to worry abt such trivial matters...
-zzz-
& oh, no fotos. Lazy to take. Bah. The idea of taking fotos with my fone just ain't appealing, esp if the cam sucks.

Absolut Boredom

2007-09-25T10:38:00.000+08:00

Bored to death while sitting in for class...[Cos I already completed the mod...]

No prize for guessing what class this is...

Bah.

Welcome to -u know what uni...-

What Tarot ish u??

2007-09-23T13:10:00.000+08:00

You are The Hierophant

Divine Wisdom. Manifestation. Explanation. Teaching.

All things relating to education, patience, help from superiors.The Hierophant is often considered to be a Guardian Angel.

The Hierophant's purpose is to bring the spiritual down to Earth. Where the High Priestess between her two pillars deals with realms beyond this Earth, the Hierophant (or High Priest) deals with worldly problems. He is well suited to do this because he strives to create harmony and peace in the midst of a crisis. The Hierophant's only problem is that he can be stubborn and hidebound. At his best, he is wise and soothing, at his worst, he is an unbending traditionalist.

What Tarot Card are You?

1000th post - special...

2007-09-23T03:25:00.000+08:00

For this 1000th post special, I decided to dedicate this to a very special guest...

Dinner appt @ CHIJMES with Joelle ah yee & Gavin, & a special guest...

There u go, our special guest, who camwhored beside the cute nice vintage car spotted in SMU carpark...
(With lots of flowers!! but i wonder what's the bottle of liquor doing in the car...)
- Anyone care to identify what's the car???

Dinner at Hog's Breath is nice, although kinda sad that we din really take fotos...
We all is no camwhore.. =P
(Thank god for the 15% UOB discount, else we'll all be broke since they prefer to give 20% to SIM instead of us. BAH!)

Meanwhile, more mugging.
There's no rest for the wicked...

P.S. pls dun forget my bdae. domo arigatou. -thick skinned-

Note: Some place are never meant to be revisited, evar. =P

Marketing 101 for dummies...

2007-09-21T04:07:00.000+08:00

for my 999th post on tis damn blog (of cos there's more than 999 but that's a diff story...), I chose tis interesting article that I came across on Marketing...

1. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: “I am very rich. Marry me!” - That’s Direct Marketing

2. You’re at a party with a bunch of friends and see a gorgeous girl. One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says: “He’s very rich. Marry him.” - That’s Advertising

3. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and get her telephone number. The next day, you call and say: “Hi, I’m very rich. Marry me.” - That’s Telemarketing

4. You’re at a party and see gorgeous girl. You get up and straighten your tie, you walk up to her and pour her a drink, you open the door (of the car) for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her ride and then say: “By the way, I’m rich. Will you marry me?” - That’s Public Relations

5. You’re at a party and see gorgeous girl. She walks up to you and says: “You are very rich! Can you marry! Me?” - That’s Brand recognition

6. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: “I am very rich. Marry me!” She gives you a nice hard slap on your face. - That’s Customer Feedback

7. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: “I am very rich. Marry me!” And she introduces you to her husband. - That’s demand and supply gap

8. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say anything, another person come and tell her: “I’m rich. Will you marry me?” and she goes with him - That’s competition eating into your market share

9. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her! and bef ore you say: “I’m rich, Marry me!” your wife arrives. - That’s restriction for entering new markets

Opportunities, Happyness

2007-09-20T22:11:00.001+08:00

"Perhaps happiness never existed. That's why people blindly pursuit happyness..."

I guess sometimes opportunities present themselves only once. The moment you passed by and missed it, you can never get it back.

"幸福常未必摆在眼前，所以你必须自己努力去争取..."

Ignorance.

2007-09-19T02:38:00.000+08:00

I guess I never knew, but apparently SG's a very small place.
Oh well. Some things are apparently never meant to be revisited. Evar.

Sick

2007-09-14T13:18:00.000+08:00

Anyone care to buy me Pi Pa Gao??

Apparently this sudden fever + flu attack during week 4 has mutated into a full-fletched invasion that packs a sucky throat infection too.
So now I'm pretty much voiceless. Like Hello Kitty.

Oh well.

Unwell

2007-09-11T00:29:00.000+08:00

Bah. I'm down with the insignificant yet deadly ~~bird~~ cow flu now.
Which makes me wonder, why did I even stay till so late for my TA consultation session?
1-5 to be precise, when my session is only from 3-5. Bah.
(The fact that there's a quiz tml doesn't help in reducing my inflow of 'clients'.)

Bah, I'm only getting paid $500/sem for being a TA.
So be nice, let me maximise my 'idle time variance' kk?
(And oh, TAs are not omnipotent, all-knowing, online 24/7 and of cos, invulnerable/invincible. So don't try to baffle us with chim chim qns...)

On the upside, at least it's kinda fun to confuse the already confused souls in sch.
Can't help giggling when I see their blur look.. (though tat means i gotta re-explain things all over again)

Bah. Anyone care to be nice and get me a hot drink now?
(Make that a whiskey with hot water to clear up my nose with vapour action.)

Midnite Blues

2007-09-09T04:03:00.000+08:00

Officially on this blog, this will be the 994th post, meaning 6 more to go before reaching the milestone of 1000...
But I guess it'll take forever probably.
No wonder yanfang took like forever in the past to post a short entry.

Anyway, with hectic schedules and never-ending workload, my only relief lies in the form of liquor...
Too bad the Macallan looks too new to be opened...(I'll probably get yelled at...)
Guess I'll have to make do with the opened Blue Label instead...

Guess Blue's the new black huh? I'm feeling pretty blue now too...

Extremes...

2007-09-09T03:32:00.000+08:00

Recently, my behaviour has taken a twist towards various extremes...
Towards both good and bad...

The good extreme? I volunteered for lots of nonsense, knowing it's extra work for me.
In addition, doing 'charity' by giving away lots of freebies. Not that I'm siao, but no pt having them if I can't make it for free movies and stuff lidat.

Now for the other extreme. I've been really mean both online and in person.
To the extent I probably pissed off some folks. Who I pretty much don't give a damn either, to put it across crudely.
In a certain manner, I'll deem it 1-for-1, since it's really unreasonable if I am to be criticised (ok i shld actually) for such mean behaviour but the opposition's doing so too.
As for the redeeming factor? It mostly only occur on Wed, my busiest day where I had to squeeze lunch within a pathetic 5mins break.
Bah.

So much for the intellect folks who count ppl's $$. No wonder they either change job early or end up dying young.
BAH~!!!

Work...

2007-09-03T20:46:00.000+08:00

"Oei, 东西做好一点. Be professional, not personal." - 刘玲玲 in 881

I guess that pretty much sums up my 1/2-hearted blog entry in a long time abt 881.

To be honest, it's really hard for me to stay focused and objective about my goals and keep to my plans.
Not when I'm still enshadowed by all these past events which I'm still trying to pull away from.

To be fair, everyone does have their fair share of heartwrecking affairs and well...skeletons in their closet.
It's just a matter of how long one takes before we throw them all into the sea...
(for someone else to rediscover them another day...)

With the endless FRSs & SSAs to read, I really don't have the time to brood over anything.
Yet, that subtle trigger always brings me back to memory-recollections, which hurts alot...
Which boils down to the very fact... Why did I even start with something that doesn't seem to last for long?
Just as the same way I question my sanity for doing the BAcc or ACCA programme.

For a moment, I experienced serendipity in the welliness centre when I had a nice nap there...(Till some asshat woke me up. BAH!)
And my friend asked jokingly if I was there for counselling..
Which was kinda weird, since I wanted to take the counselling course, but yet I needed counselling myself...
(In Russell Peters' words, -indian accent- "That will be counterproductive...")

On a nice note, the cut's healing up pretty well, after the bigger 1 apparently got reopened abit on Sat cos I overexerted myself during kayaking.
Must be the sea water, it has to be.
But that makes me look...shallow. Bah. (Duh, it is shallow)

Maybe I shld start with a new deeper 1 to top it up... (Play tic tac toe perhaps?)
But meanwhile, I need Yoko Yoko... [care to sponsor?]
Not just for the endless backaches & shoulder aches, but also for that swollen elbow that I picked up on Cacherel's car when I closed the door and kena it... =*(

Lost for thoughts

2007-09-02T21:52:00.000+08:00

For a moment, I was really angry.
No, it's not about the participants.
But rather angry with myself.

My failure to brief them properly about safety issues pretty much contributed to the outcome of the event.
So much for Bay Escapade 07...
Even the IC weiyang also felt the event went quite badly...

Imagine the horror I experienced when Gee Yong shouted out "Don't go near the Merlion!!"
For a moment, the "Oh SHIT!" message popped up in my mind..
Sometimes, I just wish someone would be the poor fellow & sacrifice be the example, 杀鸡敬猴 and remind the rest not to go near there.
(There's a suction area under the merlion, just in case u wonder where the fark the water the merlion merlion-ed came from)

Thankfully, there wasn't any injury, serious or minor. (Not that I know of any.)
Else I'll pretty much be screwed. bah.

-Wonder if they had fun...-
1 thing for sure, I'm damn sure Jason had lots of fun ~~hopping ard kayaks and capsizing them...~~
Bah. No wonder people don't like to organise kayaking events.
Moving & Washing kayaks are more shaggy than kayaking itself.

Drained

2007-08-31T02:28:00.001+08:00

Right now, I'm alright and yet not at the same time.
While the very realisation that I haven't been blogging recently prompted me to do so now and signal an indication of welliness, on the other hand the fact that I haven't mention anything about my favourite movie 881 (PWN secrets, l33t!) suggest a different tale.

Bah.
I just want to watch 881 all over again.

Truth & Mistruth...

2007-08-28T13:57:00.000+08:00

So here's the truth...

I did ~~mutilate~~ cut myself.
By design or accident or whatsoever, I did.
And it kinda of felt good.
And of cos, I bled.

Now the mistruth...
It wasn't exactly deep.
Or non-fatal, I would say.

Perhaps I should try somewhere less fleshy the next time round instead.

Bidding Woes...

2007-08-27T00:12:00.000+08:00

Time to blow matters up.
After emailing the prof, it's high time I email the admin folks in charge of bidding ~~& blast them under the cover of suggestions~~...
Next up? Senior manager at Business Sch regarding class size matters and admitting of an additional maggot like me for some mods....

Sometimes, it's always nice to blow things out of proportion and disregard the chain of command.

Self-mutilation, weird stuff...

2007-08-26T12:35:00.000+08:00

I really hate to broadcast this on my blog, considering the image (if any) I've been protraying...
Besides, it's pretty warped and wrong as well...

But then...
Self-mutilation feels good.
Pls don't ask me why...
~~For right now, I'm enjoying every moment of it while not being in the right state of mind...~~

On a side note...
Pls park ur cars properly.

Dumb Mistakes, Verge of ..., Birthday

2007-08-26T11:00:00.000+08:00

Had a really horrible week where I was on the verge of breakdown any moment.

To top it up, bidding for modules had sent my heartbeat up to an all-high of around 150 all the time.

Just when this time during the 2nd window I'm pretty certain that I already sealed my bid with a super high bid figure...

Imagine my horror when I realised I bidded for the wrong class. =(

Instead of G8, I bidded for G5. And the sad fact that there's only 1 slot left goes to show that the prof's good and I'm unlikely to get it unless I bidded very high.

Now the horror when I bidded wrongly. Unless someone's willing to drop during BOSS 2A, otherwise I'll be doomed literally. Bah.

Unless I manage to get the professor to accept 1 more in her class. Bah.
(Tough move... Harder than trying to get Uncle Lee to say yes...)

On Fri nite, Joelle Ah Yee's bdae celebration...

Nothing too xiong...Just chilling out... Though I keep ask her drink...

On side news, poor Amber got bashed left-right-centre for her 21st bdae bash...

And me being the nice sweetie, only jio her to drink 1 cup ONLY since i came so late.

1/2 a cup full, there's all... I think that was the trigger... =P

Her sis wasn't nice enough and keep taking fotos of her 'merlion-ing' in the toilet.

With my cam. hurhurhur. But I ish lazy to post it up... =P

Anyway loved her cake...damn nice!!

Happy 21st bdae gal! My 'car' coming for u next week during the bash.. =)

Drink-drive, Drinking, Joelle's bdae..

2007-08-25T11:24:00.000+08:00

Repeat after me...
"Do not drink-drive, Do not drink-drive, DO NOT DRINK-DRIVE!!!"
Not that I do. Bah.

I hate it when I drink for the sake of drinking...
It has never been right...or good.
~~Not that I end up emptying my guts out anyway...~~
Mellow & melancholy ain't go well with liquor.

Last night, I almost had an heart attack/shock of my life when I saw the flashing lights at Keppel Road.
A really bad experience. Bah.
Thank god there wasn't any roadblocks or whatsoever.

Anyway to u Joelle Ah Yee, Happy ~~24th~~ 21st birthday! (in advance)
May u stay 24 21 always!!
And oh, many more lambos to come... (no fire last nite..bah)
-whisper- ("Told ya I got good taste... the gal we saw@Movida last nite, Apple Hong's friend with the beret cuter & prettier.. =P)

Choices, Alternatives

2007-08-25T02:09:00.001+08:00

I guess... sometimes we all have to let go.
Afterall, holding on to something futile ain't gonna work.
Especially if there's many more alternatives.
Like my case. Bah.

Anime downloads, Odex & the annoying Director

2007-08-23T23:47:00.000+08:00

Odex case: PacNet need not reveal downloaders' names to distributor - CNA news
As per headlines. I guess it's kinda weird as it'll set the precedents for future cases of such nature.
As usual, it's hard to define who's the pirate in this case.
Afterall, not all titles are licensed by them. Not to mention, they probably 'koped' the fansub's subtitles and pass it off as their own at times too. Bah.

So much for all these nonsense.
They don't even have proper disclosure policies lor! BAH!

Depression

2007-08-22T16:39:00.000+08:00

Still feeling horrible as usual.
Hyperventilation has kicked in. Bah.
To those who knows, I'm ok...
Still living and kicking...For the moment that is.

Lots of silly things I did...
And to think I'm comtemplating taking a sem off to rest.
Bah.
Guess silly's calling silly silly. =(

R U OK?

2007-08-21T16:10:00.000+08:00

Don't even think of asking that question.
U probably know the answer to it.

At the moment, I just feel like hiding away from the world.
I'm sorry to all if I didn't show up for anything.
For right now, I just don't feel like facing anyone.

Madness...

2007-08-20T22:48:00.000+08:00

Sheer madness on the 1st day of school.
Left home late, reached on time, and gave everyone the black face. Bah.
Not to mention, didn't speak AT ALL in finance class.
& Lizhen thought the prof's a yr 3/4 student lor... Bah.

Anyway, I pretty much went bonkers today.
Dropped 2 out of 4 confirmed mods, only to bid for 2 more, which includes re-bidding for MS but on thurs instead of fri.
Reason being? to compact my classes to 4 day week instead.
So much for high-risk maneuvers

In other news, I'm pretty much on my way to getting my Oxford-Brookes degree.
Just a matter of whether it's 2nd Upper (confirmed!) or 1st class...

Gotten a sucky 54 for fin. reporting and a better but equally sucky 68 for fin. management.
Bah.

That still works out to an average of 61 still, which means I need 61/100 at least for Audit to get my 1st Class... Bah.

Meanwhile, I need lots of $$$ for my textbooks...
And lots of e$$!!! pls dun bid so high. Bah.

On side news... Maybe I'm just lost.
Too much changes... Too much blows...
Perhaps I shld take a sem or 2 off to rest and reflect...

Chalet, PT + Gavin's birthday...

2007-08-19T01:48:00.000+08:00

I'm really sorry that I haven't been blogging alot.
Much as I wished to blog, but something's pulling me back from doing so.
~~Perhaps I'm still enshadowed by the past afterall..~~
So I guess I'll let the fotos do the speaking then?

28th July 2007...
After a couple of drinks... (Ok, perhaps many couples of drinks...)
Weird nonsense happens...

1st the mass bonging left-right-centre, in-out, up-down, up-up-down-down-A-A-B-B Start...

Followed by Unca A pouncing on the target for 2nd round...

And having a ravaged target finding someone to seek help...

And the attacker proud and gay...

And the ending shot before Unca A falls back into deep sleep...
(So Titanic!!!)

THE END. Bah. =P

10th Aug 2007.
Got mobilised for PT + Gavin's bdae @ Movida.
Table's laden with lots of poison for choice already when Nad & I arrived.

Shortly after, poor Ah Yee J gotta take the rap for her bf cos her bf smoked out sometime along the way.

Then, 莫名其妙 got dancers and live band come out.
Machiam like Bollywood lidat, something happened den everyone's out to dance.

A frontal shot...

For some reason though, TK wasn't pleased with it.
Thus the totem of freedom.

Shortly after, TK found alternate source of leisure.
Although it looks as though someone pulled an rear-entry off on him while he attempts it on M.

After that, TK tried to pull off another stint on the bdae boy...
Only to be told, "Sorry we don't serve banana split here..."

Anyway, my biggest surprise for the night came in the form of finger food.
OMG! How come Movida sells such nice fried finger food?!?!
It's akin to KTV Pubs!!!

Anyway, drinking with the outlaws' fun yet weird.
Apparently, the bottles seem to defy the laws of matter conservation.
Cos they just don't seem to empty.
either that, or they just keep coming.

And the best shot of the day??
The sexy back from JF's bdae back then strikes back!
(Though Alex tries to get a piece of it this time...)

Doesn't this look sooooo familiar?

Hmmm perhaps not.
Oh well.

That's all.
As for the rest of the stories, go fill in the blank.
Bah. Time for zzz...
Sweet dreams are only for the naive sheeps.
Reality's for the forsaken souls...

SMUX Camp update

2007-08-17T22:07:00.000+08:00

Was away from 14th Aug to 16th Aug for SMUX camp.
With 500ml of Black Label, that's all.
Didn't intend to KO myself ~~cos I dun wanna zzz while kayaking~~.

Was literally all over Singapore, considering we hopped from West to East.
From KAP via the old rail tracks at Clementi area to Pandan reservoir.
Then from there to Jurong West area near Chinese Garden ~~where memories are stirred.~~
Lots of fun exploring the older estates where Xinyu & I apparently found the oldest-looking NTUC ever. And oh, the getai as well.
Didn't get to hop over to JEC for iceskate though since there wasn't enough time.
Anyway got this old couple parked near 1 of our cars (outside the carpark) and made out there, with us playing cards near it lor. So duh.
The only explanation? Uncle forget to bring cashcard...
(Foggy glass tells all...)

Funny encounters of the night?
Was stationed at the main road, next to the entrance to Chinese Garden. Right inside is the Nightclub.
Had weird looks from cabbie uncles, as though we're pimping rides for the club.
Not to mention, those club gals looking at me while walking out as though I'm 'fresh & tender young meat'.
And the killer? A guy approaching Xinyu & asking "你们在玩什么？"
It was damn funny oso when they picked us up. The freshie gals had such a commotion when a lizard on the lorry climbed on the arm of 1 of them. =P

Then over to West Coast, where...
1) I had coke with Black Label @ Mac, and the logs folks joked about telling the staff that it's 'fermented' or spoilt.
2) I got a FREAKING shower cos I thought my bag's out in the rain when Yulin already took it into the tent for us. Bah.
3) I got a low-key high from drinking and then had the freaking high dissipate cos I ran like mad to check on my bags. =(
4) I froze to death while sleeping in Mac @ 6+.. ~~And darns, I drool on the table.~~
5) I had the most freaking shock of my life evar when I woke up and realise my freaking left eye was rather bloodshot (a red patch there) and it couldn't focus on anything.
Not even the freaking Mac words on the big posters and stuff. Took a freaking 2+ hr before I regained perfect assisted vision.
Funny quote of the night?
"How come the coke taste weird? Spoilt izzit? I ask the staff to change..." -panick!-

Day 2 has me hopping over to Changi Beach for the Sun, the Sand, and the Sea. ~~And the Ah Kuas~~.
Was doing safety kayak duty and well saw this cute gal from AJ Wushu. In fact, she got this oriental look that everyone noticed her.
As usual, safety duty is ever boring cos u're on a single kayak and no one talks with u. Bah.
And the FARKING rain & strong wind isn't a gd thing. =(

Heard Ix Shen's teaching diving to the diving group at Tampines Safra. So shiok. haha...
Anyway night time's for grp skits, where there's a couple of 'R21' skits. wahaha..
And of cos, time for me to indulge in my 'healthy' whiskey green tea. =P
Funny encounters of the day?
Saw Vincent & his Co-GL acting weird. Can sense aura somemore.
*spark spark*
& oh, the occasional Ah Kuas here and there.

Day 3 has the weather against us, right after skating just ends.
Funny sightings? a guy holding a gal's hand as if he's supporting her during skating.
When nearing us, they let go of their hands. And the gal could skate perfectly fine!!
And just after they skate past me... Guess what?
The gal told the guy, "Hold my hand..." -_-
Oh well.

Weather was really sucky though.

The only foto that I took.
Everyone got wet. Bah.
& I din get to kayak cos too many safety.
So ended up playing cards with 2 freshies who didn't go. (1 has migrane, the other has period.)

Clean-up's a bitch. They left the kayaks filled with water for us. ARGHH!
Bah.

Oh well. Event's over.
1st time go camp dunno most of the other folks 1. KAO!
And minimal interactions with the freshies somemore!
Not right lor. Bah. ~~I need someone to buy my textbooks lor~~.

Oh well.
Uni-Y camp updates soon with fotos.
Meanwhile, out for 881. =P
P.S. I recalled something while watching 881, but can't remember what. BAH!!!! arghh...

Ok i recalled what now...
Ah Yee J1's not able to join me @ west coast cos she's working the next day, she's unable to sleep & she's on sedatives. bah.
As for Ah Yee J2, let's just say... from going bf's place @ Changi, she ended up in Labrador. Oh well.
I don't wanna know what happens there. Not even the details abt foggy windows. XP

Back-ed.

2007-08-17T01:06:00.000+08:00

As per entry title.
I'm back from SMUX camp.
It's been fun. Tiring though.
Even for slackers like me.
~~Who refuse to replace the GL who broke his leg & stayed as a helper and 'nua'~~.

Random nonsense and moments every now and then.
Not to mention, the stupid things I did.
~~Like adding black label to my coke in Mac. @4am. While having Big Breakfast.~~

And it was weird. Certainly.
How fast one's memories would fade so fast, but the heart refuses to let go of things.
As if it's continued operation is linked to memories.

More updates tomorrow on the camp and the random funny nonsense...

14th to 16th Aug - AWAY!

2007-08-14T08:30:00.000+08:00

As mentioned above.
Will be away to help out for a camp.

Sad are the ones who are called helpers,
~~for they are the 1s who don't get to walk around and know the new gals~~
For they do all the nonsense w/o interacting with anyone...

If anyone's having supper at the following locations at the following dates around 1, 2am, please call me!
Tues night/Wed morning - West Coast Park
Wed night/ Thu morning - Changi Beach

Bah. Need...Sleep.

Felicia Teo Saga...

2007-08-14T01:53:00.000+08:00

Remember my previous post about Felicia Teo, the gal who's been missing since 30th June??

After that brief uproar about some kiddo's outrageous entry about Felicia Teo & some extremely poor attempt from him to cover up the incident, (DEY! got screenshot leh, spas or what?)
apparently he doesn't learn his mistake. Perhaps he thought he's doing a Star Wars?
"V~~oxy~~-Who? strikes back" - That probably went off in his mind while he gets more warped doing projects.
[Yah...we know... Everyone gets warped doing projects. Even me.]

Shall not say too much to 'glorify' him since he ain't gonna learn his lesson anyway.
Screenshot of his entry as follows: [JUST IN CASE SOMEONE TRIES TO DELETE AGAIN]

Click on foto to enlarge.

If you read through what he wrote (via his site or the foto), he's being sarcastic about the entire episode of events. Not to mention, trying to sound sympathetic towards Felicia while being outright sarcastic about it.
[P.S. foto better. stop trying to boost his ego by reading his blog]

The most obvious line?

But I’m still waiting for the longest time that I see Felicia on
MSN. It’ll come.

5 days. 5 years. 50 years.

Sometimes, it makes you wonder why the wrong folks always suffer. Bah.
And oh please, stop trying to sound religious and pull Jesus into the picture.

Hopeless Society, Dumb Teens, Needless Cursing, and an Asshat 'top blogger'

2007-08-13T01:41:00.000+08:00

There's so much things I wanted to blog about.
Like the Uni-Y Blue Moo session that we had at YMCA's rooftop on Fri nite.
Or that wild bdae celebration of PT & MB on Fri nite as well.
Or that movie review of Jay Chou's Secrets, which I watched with Yvonne on Sat night.
(Now stop being a pussy & be frightened by ghost lah.)

But instead, I decide to talk about something more serious.
Something that's more of a concern. Especially in our society.

Remember Felicia Teo, the student who was reported lost since 30th June?
The gal whose foto is on flyers and posters all over bus stops and lamp post in town?

I only got to hear about her case recently after the media & blogosphere covered it briefly...
Apparently, some asshat had to well, BE THE ASSHAT and curse her.
Nadia was the 1st to alert me about it...
Not to mention, the self-proclaimed 'top blogger' started a round of flaming on a 13-yr old gal who plagiarised his nonsense not too long ago.
Ok, maybe quite long ago.

Generally, I'm not so big on all this flaming issues. What I felt was, it's meant for AA (Attract Attention) folks like XX and co.
But for him to curse the missing gal to drown to death?
That's akin to the case of the secondary school gal who said on her blog that her classmate who drowned in the drain/canal deserved it.
[Anyway that poor idiot got whacked by some other folks from school as well.]

No one deserves to be cursed so badly. Ok, perhaps Bush & Osama may qualify for it.
But I mean, why resort to such verbal abuse on someone (a gal especially) when she's in mishap?
There's something called Karma.
U could possibly end up in the same situation where u need help while hanging for ur life on the edge of a cliff, and some asshat could similarly throw a barrel at you, Donkey Kong style.
Or get run over by a car and the next farker just continue w/o stopping by and help.
[P.S. I ain't cursing U voxy. I'm just generating hypotheoretical scenarios for u.]

In a modern society like Singapore where our papa & grandpa Lee happily shoot the word "civilised" like no one's business, this is certainly not anything near civilisation.
The very last thing we need is for our society (or in fact any) to be cold and uncaring, oblivious & unconcerned with problems faced by others within the society.

*Updates* - our in-house camwhore has removed his link. Bah. Oh well.
thank god for the screenshows Nadnut has.
Screenshots as follows: 1 2 3 4 5

Nuffnang Movie Screening + movie review

2007-08-12T23:32:00.000+08:00

This is a belated post, specially dedicated to the Nuffnang Team for the free movie tixs & for organising such an event for all Nuffnangers.

Some time in late July, there was this...

Then I wrote this...
Shortly after, I got this...

Fast-forward 1 week later, it's National Day!
Due to some unforeseen circumstances, my initial movie date 'dropped' me and I had to look for a new date.
Thankfully, ~~sweetie~~ YuNz is nice enough to accompany me as my movie date for the day, even though that was just 1 of her rare off-days.
[Yes, she's the Sentosa gal that I spoke of 'visiting' in late July. It's akin to going back office on off days for her.]

Anyway as ~~porky~~ sleepy YuNz overslept by abit (ok, abit more than abit), me being the nice ~~Robert~~ cow drove over to pick her up.
& got lost. Bah. So malu-ating. [Her place is so far from our destination lor!]
Oh well. That's before we go over and pick our babe with the thighs of death, Gracey.

Then imagine my horror when I realise...[gasp!]
No one's wearing white. ~~Or stars. or even the freaking crescent.~~
I'm wearing my "Door Bitch" ~~faded~~ red shirt by InstantKarma, Gracey's in her red top (she hates red btw), & Xiao Yun'er's in black.
Oh well. I guess we can pass it off anyway...?

Lucky us though when we reached Vivo, for we managed to get a lot at the basement. Must be the red bringing us all da luck.
Cos ~~Robert~~ Cowboy, Gracey's fren Celest & other latecomers had to park above, which is freaking far from GV.
The 1st thing that sort of greets us when we arrived is this:

Thank god cos the queue's pretty short. (sorry no fotos)
Goodie bags are handed out and tixs were collected.

Not to mention, a sticker to indicate that you're here for the event.

[With my blog add, no less.]
And oh, Qiaoyun came shortly after us as well. =P

While heading over for the reception, YuNz decided to camwhore abit...

Reception was okay, considering that all 3 of us were starving. =)

Apparently, Claudia was trying to read my blog add (on my sticker on my sleeve) with much difficulty & her bf ended up popping her bubble by outreading her.

[Above 2 fotos courtesy of Claudia]

Shortly after, some other folks from the bar came.
Folks like Nadia, RN, Cowboy, etc etc.
Not to mention, old-time folks like Brennan & god-knows-who-else.
Thought I saw Jayden, the featured blogger for Aug @ Nuffnang.
Did I? Or did I not? Who cares. ~~Not that I give a damn anyway.~~

Xiaxue showed up with Mike, and I thought their height difference were abit peculiar. Oh well.
And the amazing thing is, Nadia told me iceangel was there as well.
Which got everyone excited, cos we were hoping for some form of 'free show' before the movie, due to some entry by our satire queen.

We heard TK Bearbear's father just arrived and went over to ~~whack~~ find him.
It was damn sweet of him to get 2 rottie soft toys for Nuffnang.

It's just so adorable that Qiaoyun wants 1.
Nadia too.
Wait, Gracey also.
Heck, I WANT ONE TOO!!!! I WANT ROTTIE! (soft toy, i mean) =P

That was when I saw Dawn Yang.
With her shades on & the light makeup, she certainly didn't look as hot as she was in magazines and fotos.
But gosh, her legs were the killers. No wonder guys go gaga over them.
(Ok lah, Gracey urs oso, people will go gaga over them, kk? =D)

We headed over to Carl's Jr. for burger on CB's recommendation.

For a moment, I saw the star resembles TK.
Or the Tao Hway Man!!!

While loitering around ~~to have my burger get digested~~, we headed over to Daiso to get my fav Cha Soba.
And then I saw this, which I can't help taking a foto of it.

Reminds me of something...kinky.
Akin to Durex's new ultra small product. =P

Anyway 1 last camwhoring before we go back...

So what's in the goodie bag, I wondered?

After laying out everything the "Standby Bed" style, that's all we have:

Mostly Super products, courtesy of Super. =)
& not to forget, our SG flag.

So much for my National Day! =P

Anyway Rush Hour 3 is fairly okay, although low on the action side this time round.
Perhaps Jackie's old already. Afterall, he looks much older in this movie.
The same old jokes, with Chris Tucker doing all the funny shit.
My rating for it? 3/5. A can-watch, but not a must-watch. =P

P.S. I wonder why people wanna take foto with Jayden & not TK?
TK's video downright pwn Jayden's 1. Bah.

Weird nonsenses...[edited]

2007-08-11T12:13:00.001+08:00

I wonder if liquor helps 1 to dream or whatsoever.
Cos for a moment, it certainly felt like reality, Paprika-style.
Or perhaps even the slightest manifestation of my imagination...

All the break-ups & patch-backs, all the fun, joy & love, misunderstandings, disappointments and heartaches...
It definitely didn't feel like a dream.
One thing for certain, it has significantly & almost materially distorted my opinion and views on my action plans.
With reasonable assurance, no less.

Or maybe it was just the crazy jam at 3am at CTE tunnel under Chinatown.
[They closed 2 of 3 lanes for repair. bah.]
Too much liquor, lots of recycled stale air in the car, + a move-stop motion cos of the jam.
It all ain't conducive for anything.
Not even for my damn imaginations to picture any nonsense.
[~~P.S. someone pls dun tell Nad that I drank while she's away at the Ladies.~~ Oops.]

On a side note, here's the weirdest nonsense I ever read so far about cigarette smuggling in SG.
Ever since someone tries to do so by taping them around their waist of hiding them in the shoe or whatsoever.

ICA seizes $285,000 worth of contraband cigarettes in coffins
SINGAPORE : In a first for customs officials in Singapore, $285,317
worth of contraband cigarettes were found in coffins.

ICA officers
seized 37,199 packets of duty-unpaid cigarettes in a raid on August 9.

They also arrested three male Singaporeans aged 32, 37 and 55 years.

The trio were busily retrieving cigarettes from the coffins and
repacking them into carton boxes when the officers arrived.

Following a
tip-off, the raid was conducted at a warehouse in Toh Guan Road East, where
officers found a total of 33 coffins. - CNA /ls

Guess the cigarettes are going up in flame with the coffins. (And perhaps the corpses?)
Or...
It'll probably be repackaged and sold to U smokers with extra duty & extra GST.
So much for the need to generate tax revenue from smugglers' effort. Bah.

P.S. that's all for the moment. Nuffnang updates after back from class. bah.
P.P.S. I still wonder why dreams only kick in now. bah bah.

I Thought What I'd Do Was, I'd Pretend I Was One Of Those Deaf-mutes.
