Let's Keep Things Simple.

MDA and Recee hand in hand.

2009-12-04T22:34:00.000+08:00

I finally realized, that my last update was at October 22nd. That was... to be precise, a month and a half ago. That - concludes how lazy I'm in updating stuffs. Nuff said, no pun intended.

So today, and yes today. I shall not indulge myself in the history of the past 50 days of winter. Our class went to the MDA at somewhere deep in Buona Vista for a talk. Its actually a talk on the censorship board and how they uh set a theme for each movie, dvd, video and games. It was pure nonsense imo, because when they started on their goals and aims, I couldn't help it and before I can even get hold of myself, my eyes starting rolling upwards lol. I shall not speak what's happening next in a presentation because its simply pointless.

Let us skip to the refreshments. This 15 mins of break time was all I ever wanted for this morning. I was looking forward to it, or should I say with pretty high standards of expectation because its MDA, which is a govt thingy. However, to my dismay/digust/sheer shock/utterly disappointment... the refreshments was (milo packet + 2 puny krunchy's biscuits)...... speechless.

Then, after the break its the video game section, previously was film section. This guy thinks he's so funny or maybe thinks of us like some kid that doesn't know what is a 'game'. How ridiculous, maybe I should write him a mental note or something. Very, very bad. He literally bores me to tears, and everyone, most of the mass fell asleep. He must have some hidden potential in his droning skills.

And lastly, I won a thumbdrive from the Q&A lol. How budget, but well its free so better than nothing. At least its not a waste trip that ends up empty handed lol.

After that, my fyp group went recee, that place is very spooky *shivers*. I might need to bring extra charms when filming there at night. And the mosquitoes are commando-trained. Very sharp skills and reflexes :D

PS. Wow, I complained a lot in this post. Mmmm kinky!

Onigiris & Bubble Head

2009-10-22T23:47:00.001+08:00

Lately has been really slacking in school, partly because its FYP so a lot of time has been allocated for us to do our work. But our current workload is pretty relax right now. So each day is quite plain and restless. I tried moulding some onigiris few weeks before. And it turns out quite weird... as in the shape haha. So I found this mould at daiso @ 2 bucks each. I bought one :) And its so useful hahaha.

Another thing, I colored my hair lately into this supposingly 'Milk Tea Brown'. But I think the product uses some uh... 'Low Fat/Less Milk' product, so the color did not turn out so milky. Oh btw, its the one uses just bubble. I guess I had like 45mins of bubbles fun, but it smells nicer than other loreal products, thats for sure :)

NOTE: I'm posting this entry using the Windows Live Writer. Seems quite convenient actually haha but the pictures you upload will end up with broken link. No idea how to fix it. Anw, woot, here comes the weekend!

Steamboat... huff hoff

2009-10-19T00:13:00.008+08:00

Last Friday, I went to Jin's Deli Steamboat located somewhere near Tanjong Pagar with my ITP colleagues-turned-friends :)

The place is pretty hard to find, and they did not serve any drinks!
Cheh~ But its kinda cheap, because there is no additional surcharge, so its simply $19.80 nett price. The food variation is quite low, if they increases the type of food, definitely going to be better. Oh and the tiger beer is cheap lol, $6/bottle. And you don't need to get the food yourself.
You just need to order, and they immediately get it for you. The fried mantou is pretty good too!
I like the sliced beef roll haha, we had a lot of that. And its nice to mingle with them again, since it has been like 2 months.

<---- Tom Yum/Ginseng Chicken ---->

The food spread! :)

On Saturday, I hosted a party first time in my life! As in hosted something, like an event.
Its actually pretty fun, but its so hard to control those kids!
However, I'm glad it turn out well, and I lost my voice right on the spot, after the 2 hours party.
And Kristin is being an ASS... yes KACHENG! *look at this pregnant woman!*
But still, she helped me quite a lot, so still must thank her haha.
Of cause my lovely Sista for her warming support! \m/ <---- this is for YOU!

mm...
mmmmm.....
mmmmmmm....

*after lots and lots of hard and deep thinking*

Okay lah, and Bobo cause she was there helping also wahaha.
Last but not least, school vacation is over :(

It has been a while..

2009-10-15T13:13:00.002+08:00

I noticed my previous post was at MAY 18th 2009 lol.
Wth.. I seriously didn't realized it oh well :)
So I diligently REVAMPED and ZHNG it. *ZORZOR*

Ok, the past 2 days I have been receiving training at New Zealand All Natural Ice Cream. But in the end its kinda simple, so I think I had too much ice cream haha. But I get to work with Brenda! yay, so its actually quite fun to have 2 ppl instead of one. And BZ keeps come and take ice cream only, later the boss look through the camera video, the footages all is BZ and BZ only lol - no wonder Cookies & Cream ran out that fast haha.

I also spent a huge sum of money (not exactly huge but a moderate amount) to pick up Japanese at Bunka. Lesson wont start till Nov 1st. So in the meanwhile I'm like trying to learn all the symbols first, I think it will help me greatly when the lesson starts :)

Mmm, I guess thats it for now, at least I have a new update on this rotting place ;\
Gonna prepare for my dental appointment (yay taking out in like 4 more months)
And meeting up with my itp friends for steamboat!

So far so good?

2009-05-18T22:37:00.002+08:00

Yesterday went to Cathay and watch 'Angels & Demons' with Jun, Brenda and Jeremiah. The show was pretty interesting, and even though its an over 2 hours show, its kinda interesting enough to keep me entertained. Although Brenda almost fell asleep haha. I think its because of the music and the editing that makes the whole movie very fast paced.

And regarding work, its kinda okay, I'm getting more adjusted to the work flow, and I guess I'm more mentally prepared in going home later than usual knock off time now. And its finally my 1st month haha, but it seems like forever to reach this point.

*sigh*

Hopes the payroll comes sooner, needs to buy a new shoe ;D And from the looks of everyone posts, this ITP is definitely really bad, all of our feedback ain't that positive lol. Argh~

The Ramen Girl

2009-05-11T16:44:00.004+08:00

Today I took a day off from my Industrial Attachment, because I need to head back to school for ezlink card stuff. Apparently I have to update, or should I say change into a new card (which has the ERP, cashcard functions). So I believe its uh more convenient in terms of method of paying. As we know that living in Singapore has a lot of stuffs to pay, so nonetheless, these kind of techonology or ideas of paying 'all-in-one' is indeed fascinating lol, I wonder what's coming next though -.-

So anyway, the whole process took way faster than I thought, so me and Jack decided to catch a movie haha, and we watched 'The Ramen Girl'. I think the whole movie was pretty funny actually because of all the miscommunication and stuffs. Especially the Jap actor, I thought he was very good :) After that we had lunch at Shikudo(sp?), not too sure whats the name again. The food there is good and price is pretty acceptable and I had Cha Soba wooo~ hahaha.

A week of Intern + 1

2009-05-01T23:08:00.003+08:00

I had to go back to my workplace tomorrow morning, so there goes my weekend haha. Because the company is currently rushing some projects, and I had to head back to help out.

So far my intern had been good, I learn things that were not taught in school >.> And I had been doing some digitizing using a deck, producer's paperwork (which is really confusing), and master dumping. Its amazing because in school, there is no deck. The work pace is pretty slow, own time own target, as long you hit the deadline. The people there are friendly too! :)

Yesterday there's a this showcase of RED camera and how it could do, and I attended for a short while, and its a superb camera, compare to XL2 haha. Of course there's this buffet line with great food where we kept eating non stop lol. Oh and I met Jack Neo too, he came by yesterday to check updates for his latest film 'Got Ghost Meh'. I have been digitizing those tapes, and tmr will be doing it too, cause I think he's behind the deadline or smth, not too sure. But so far its really funny ;D

And the place is really comfortable too, very cold, and its a shophouse. I wonder why all the production studios are shophouses. I think its a trend within the media industry. For now, things are slow, but I believe the pace will pick up sooner or later. And when that happens, I believe more of my weekends will be burned. So much to learn, and so many stuffs I didn't know lol (like online and offline, color grading and stuffs), kinda stressful. Oh well.... Looks like most of my classmates are handling well and having fun?! lol, good luck to all of us hahaha.

Slack!

2009-04-23T21:35:00.003+08:00

Mmm, initially when the vacation started, it was good because finally able to have a breather and stuff like that. But somewhere from the middle onwards, I'm becoming more lazy and lethargic haha. And needless to say that I screw up my body clock too which is bad. But next Monday onwards, I'll be starting my attachment already. But before that, I need to get all my pre-itp done which is such a fuss. I guess I'm entering into my next phase of Poly life then, hopefully its a good one, thinking about it, I think I might miss school life once I enroll into National Service or when I'm in the working society in the near future. It kinda gives off a nostalgic feeling, which suck. But that.. is yet another phase in my life.

*sigh*

Yesterday, Jack and I went to Iluma to watch '17 Again'. Its a good show, and I think its worth my money haha. Um, it made me think if I got a chance to be 17 again, what would I correct? But I'm like 3 years above 17 only, so its kinda weird lol. Maybe... I would study harder for my O levels? hahaha oh well :D

David Archuleta!

2009-04-10T14:23:00.005+08:00

Finally I'm back! So the whole experience was rather a crazy yet amazing one, oops and memorable. The was plan to start at 7pm, so me and my friend we reached there at around 5pm. Actually she was there way earlier than me, because I got held up at the dental. There's an enclosed area just in front of the stage, but you are only able to enter if you are holding a 'Singapore-produced' CD. So I don't thus unable to go in that safe zone.

Loads of fans from Asia turned up too, like India, Philippines, Indonesia and so on. So we somehow sneaked to the side of the stage and camped there - as a result we had sore legs and back later on, like right now :\

By 6pm+ the crowd starts to fill up the place, and everyone was like screaming for nothing. The audience are getting impatience and feisty, I'm getting restless lol. Everyone was pushing here and there, and getting their camera ready for action. The crowd was like constantly giving false alarm, screaming for nothing, like a change of David's songs and some other minor stuffs.

Then by 7.15pm, he rushed out, jumped on the stage and immediately sang 'Touch My Hand'. Everyone was like screaming, the girls surrounding me was giving me a very hard time with their piercing, deafening waves of shrieks! And one thing, I'm not the ONLY GUY! lol, thank goodness, there are in fact a lot of guys out there tonight, so yay!

Then, he talked for a bit, said hello to Singapore and continue his second performance which is 'A Little Too Not Over You'. The crowd was really getting into it, and David was like jumping around singing, and the whole audience joined in during the chorus so its amazing.

Then he sang 'A Thousand Miles' on the keyboard, they actually changed it to a lower platform, the initial was pretty tall. He actually talked quite a bit in between songs, and lastly was 'Crush'. During the last chorus, the 'aye aye part', he points the mic to the crowd and everyone sings along, and yeah it was pretty fun haha. He's getting more and more versatile on stage, and to hear him sing live, it was so brilliant and radical.

Then he talks a bit more, saying how surprised that so many fans turned up to support him, and he kept thanking Singapore for the immense support and stuffs like that. He seems really happy, and its his first stop in Asia.

He went into the "safe house" for a while before coming back to sign autographs, I was actually going to ask David sign 'lovingarchie.com' and take a picture of him holding it, but then again, I can't enter the enclosed area which suck big time. Thinking about it, I might not want to queue up that long anyway, it was an amazing night though.

*the crowd queuing up for his autograph* this is just the enclosed area, not the whole strength of the crowd tonight.

EDT: You actually have to queue outside the mall before the guards allowing you to enter, so there are actually a lot more stuck outside, I'm consider more fortunate than them honestly.

And sorry for rambling so much haha.

NOTE: I HAD TO SAY THIS, DAVID REALLY LOOKED SO 3D TODAY LOL.

PS. Photos are HERE, GuoXiang you might wanna download from here, cause the original is too big.

Recap.

2009-04-04T12:41:00.003+08:00

Um, lets see... I haven't update in like centuries, and I don't really know what to write. Because a lot has happened and its pretty mundane if I key all on here.

Yesterday, I went out with Brenda and Junnie, we watched 'Confessions of a Shoppaholic', the movie generally was kinda funny, I like it pretty much everything haha. And we had L4D at PC bunk.

I wanted to update on the Genting trip, but I think it gonna take me sometime to sum everything up first haha, guys like to sum while girls like to ramble on ;\

And I hope that I can win the backstage passes, but looks like my luck ran out. Sigh, no choice, its like one in a million chances to win, maybe somehow similar to lottery? Argh, sucks!

Another Gathering.

2009-03-15T23:45:00.004+08:00

On Friday, I had another ITP interview. This time, the location is at Balestier. And what's even worse, I got lost badly, I think somewhere near Thomson or whatever, that place is a maze. So the company is Iceberg, and its a production house. A few projects they dealt with are 'Ah Long Pte Ltd' and 'Gui Ah Gui Ah'. So it lasted quite a while, around an hour. Because we basically chatted a lot of things, and seems a nice place to attach to too.

Anyway yesterday, I metup with my ITE clinque haha. We had an early dinner at New York New York. It was a lot of fun, they talked a lot about National Service, its pretty inevitable that this topic will comes up. But then again, I dont mind hearing their experiences haha but mostly is complain ;X

Lately I feel like I'm doing a lot of catching with friends that I didn't hang out much because everyone is busy and hardly able to afford time off to do those things. But I'm now doing loads of catching up ;D

SO after dinner, we watched 'Race to Witch Mountain'. That show wasn't too bad, but wasn't great either, it was okay. I like that guy alien powers though lol, pretty kick awesome and wicked. It was kinda funny too, in some scenes. I shall rate it around 7/10 I guess. Alright, I guess I should chop chop and head to bed early, gonna work tomorrow. Adios :)

10 Years Class Reunion.

2009-03-09T12:37:00.005+08:00

On the 7th March 2009, it marks the 10th year reunion for Class 6G haha. Now I think about it, its really radical that this event managed to take place after so much effort has been put into it. I would really like to thank GuoXiang for doing this, she has been planning it for so long, contacting all the lost souls and stuffs like that. Although the total amount of strength turned up was not overwhelming, but its like what Sathesh said "its about the quality, not quantity" haha, and I had to agree on that :)

And its really funny that how all of us are not best buddies in school during that time, but conversation wasn't still, and I'm surprised how open and eager everyone are actually. Not even a tinge of awkwardness, alright maybe a little when we met up for the first... umm 15 minutes? I guess its the 'naive' factor we all possessed when all of us are still kids. So we only remember the fun and good things about each other haha.

So before we actually head over to SOFRA, coincidentally I saw my poly friends, their group was going to have their FYP discussion. Anyway, we had lunch over there, and Mrs Chew was still..... umm Mrs Chew LOL! She was really glad and having fun I suppose, and she has real determination in guessing all of our identity from the class photo taken 10 years ago as a source of reference. But the food is just a secondary I think, all of us were so busy catching up with each other, I dont think we ever stop talking during the whole session there. It was too much fun.

After the lunch, we head over to Sour Puss which is located at Esplanade. Then, Aniza and Jufri metup with us, I'm guessing they are a couple hahaha, even Sathesh agrees with me ;D Still the same, we are doing aimless talks, but having great fun, because everyone was laughing the whole time. Although MinZee looks half asleep, and ShuHua looks like she's day dreaming heh. Aniza picked the bill though, and I feel bad but I guess there's some other time where we can treat her back. Umm, that's about it :)

Class 6G, ten years later....

The boys...

The girls...

NOTE: I didn't take photos of the food, because it aint that great :\ But I do like the Kebab and Bread, its very nice haha.

A bad habit on vacations.

2009-03-05T16:37:00.004+08:00

I was watching xxxHolic, and one episode kind of struck me which is the 'Light'.

But, do you believe in supernaturals? In my opinion, I think every time when we have a break like example; chalet and stuffs, ghost story telling is a must. Even though you did not plan it beforehand, it somehow gets into the main topic and the mood is develop. How's that?

And the episode talks about '100 tales of Horror' which is also called - Hyakumonogatari Kaidankai; A Gathering of One Hundred Supernatural Tales. It is a popular game during the Edo era in Japan, and was used as a test of courage among the samurais.

The game was a simple one. In a room, as night fell, one hundred candles were lit. Guests and players gathered around the candles, taking turns telling kaidan (ghost story). After each kaidan, a single candle was extinguished, and the room slowly grew darker and darker. The process was an evocation, with the final candle believed to summon a supernatural entity. Or it is said that after the last candle is extinguished, the room will be filled with 100 spirits. Some items are used in order for protection according to the beliefs among the commoners like the water basin, and mirror.

That being said, I feel that this "game" is wicked scary. I mean thinking about it gives me creep lol. But among all the tales, I think, that Asian possessed the most terrifying tales. Because of the creeping factor - Japanese with the excessive make ups and doll figures, Thai with the distorted grossed-out face, etc etc. Um, and if given a choice, I would rather not go to the country side of Japan, even if its for holiday, because its simply uh too creepy hahaha ;D

Lying naked..... on a bed lol.

2009-03-01T19:42:00.004+08:00

Today I had something really astonishing. I went to a Javanese Massage haha. The whole process takes around 1.5 hours, and after the end of the session, you will have a cup of hot ginger tea. I must say that its really quite an experience. Its so relaxing! And it is as if all the strains on my body kinda disappear lol, magical isnt it? ;D

But then again, the whole massage is kinda erotic lol, if it wasn't so painful. Its a good pain btw. Yeah and I did a full body package, and I think the girl eat too much ikan bilis, wonder where she got all that strength and power haha but she's amazing, other than taking advantage of me somehow :\ Shall not go into details lol, it would be too much information lol.

I got a good feeling about it, I'm so gonna have a good night sleep later on, can't wait for that :)

2009-02-26T18:08:00.006+08:00

This is a really good song, and I think it its nice haha so wanna share with you guys. The quality is not the best, but then, try to enjoy the most out of it - which simply means... suck it up and bear with it lol ;D Enjoy!

Artist: David Archuleta

Outing in Months!

2009-02-24T17:11:00.012+08:00

On Sunday, I went out with Jun and Brenda, of course its the 2nd time since I last went out after my projects submission. And I realized I have not really gone out and have fun for a draining long time. So we went to uh... Downtown East lol, and had loads of fun ;D

We initially went to Peninsula Plaza, because Jun wanted to get himself a canvas bag. In the end, we ended with Brenda buying it instead >.> Which was pretty lame, because Jun thinks its too small for him, and I think quite true also haha. But the thing I noticed is that, Indians are really good + smooth talkers. They can keep yakking about the product for so long that I don't feel like listening or intending to buy anymore, no wonder he never entertain me at all lol. And if you notice, all of them speak the same way and they have a certain procedures to it. Their favourite is nonetheless "This is really very good, I think lah. I ordered 20 of them, and sold all ardy, this is the new stock" etc etc. How's that? I mean who would fall for this old trick, tsk...

Then, we headed over to Downtown East and had dinner at Fish & Co. Express. It was pretty good though, I had Fish and Chips and Fried Calamari. Actually all of us had the same lol. Pricing wise was quite affordable, pretty much the same as Macdonald's and such. Serving wise was alright, but the burgers definitely look so tempting lah haha, maybe I should try it next time ;D

I think its been a really long time since I last went bowling. So naturally, it suck lol. And so we decided to bowl, we realized all the lanes are occupied. So the person ask for our name to be included into the waiting list. We thought why not? And the recipe we got back wrote '99 Brenda'. Then I'm wondering what is the number now, and we look at the monitor, I think it was 66? haha. So we wait, and wait.... and wait.

Finally its our turn!!!

Let the game begin....

I'm so glad I'm not the last, somehow haha.

Adoption.

2009-02-20T19:47:00.004+08:00

These are my new childrens haha, guess I will be using them more often now ;D Here are some examples.

Buttons?

2009-02-17T21:08:00.002+08:00

Okay, today is not only a bad hair day for me, but unfortunately, I fell sick too. How my day suck just like that?

Anyway, on Sunday, met up with GuoXiang haha, we initially wanted to meet up on Valentine's day. But then, I had something on, so we had to postphone - so sorry GuoXiang haha. Its always awesome going out with a childhood friend haha, and without me actually realizing it, we are childhood friend, how radical is that? And when I looked around, not everyone is still in contact with their childhood friend, so I count myelf pretty lucky in that department.

However, the funny thing is that, I don't quite remember how close we both were during Primary School haha. But then all of a sudden we are like best mates. So its cool and we always had fun.

So we watched 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Buttons'. And I feel that show is just so awesome, that I don't even feel like its a almost 3 hours show. Its great to watch a storyline-oriented movie once in a while, and I literally love these kind of movies. Where the story is so strong that you'll be kinda drawn into the show. Because nowadays, movies are all about visual effects, all the flashy stuffs. So its nice to watch something simple and yet amazing. I shall not talk more about the show because I do not want to spoil it for those who have not watch. I honestly highly recommend it, no wonder it's nominated for so many catergories in the Oscars.

I'm attached!!!

2009-02-12T18:42:00.008+08:00

I've been infatuated with her for the past one year,

.

She's so pretty and flawless, and she just sparkles so brightly,

.

She's the love of my life, and my heartbeat raced whenever I saw her,

.

And finally, I can't believe she's mine now and ever!

.

Gosh I'm so in love with Giselle, and I would love to recommend her to you guys now :)

.

Behold.... the dazzling beauty you will ever see that walk on the planet! ;D

Adele - Chasing Pavements.

2009-02-10T19:14:00.002+08:00

I'm in a mood for posting today hahaha.

Chasing Pavements - Adele

I've made up my mind,
Don't need to think it over,
If I'm wrong I am right,
Don't need to look no further,
This ain't lust,
I know this is love but,

If I tell the world,
I'll never say enough,
Cause it was not said to you,
And that's exactly what I need to do,
If I'm in love with you,

Should I give up,
Or should I just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere,
Or would it be a waste?
Even If I knew my place should I leave it there?
Should I give up,
Or should I just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere

I'd build myself up,
And fly around in circles,
Waiting as my heart drops,
And my back begins to tingle
Finally could this be it

Should I give up,
Or should I just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere,
Or would it be a waste?
Even If I knew my place should I leave it there?
Should I give up,
Or should I just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere

Should I give up,
Or should I just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere,
Or would it be a waste?
Even If I knew my place should I leave it there?
Should I give up,
Or should I just keep on chasing pavements?
Should I just keep on chasing pavements?

Should I give up,
Or should I just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere,
Or would it be a waste?
Even If I knew my place should I leave it there?
Should I give up,
Or should I just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere

We are surrounded by self-destructing frequencies.

2009-02-10T18:58:00.003+08:00

Today before I headed for school, I was flipping through some channels while having a breakfast. So I somehow happened to land on Natural Geographic channel, and I somehow got attracted to the content and topic they are talking about - Earthquakes.

So by far, everyone knows that an Earthquake occurs when the Earth crust got ruptured and causing all those tremors and vibrations because of the sudden released of the huge mass of potential energy. And these quake waves normally emits a range of frequencies during the cause of an Earthquake.

What happens is that, all the concrete buildings that surrounded us, will somehow release a frequency too - it varies from different structures. So when the frequency of a certain building are with the same wavelength of that specific Earthquake, it will resonates and thus strengthening the quake by amplifying but however, the building will collapse upon activation.

I think its really scary, imagine you're in a place full of those high rise buildings when a quake happens, somewhere like Singapore's CBD area, or Miami/New York City? It would be really disastrous. Lets put it this way about epic natural disaster, I think Earthquake is the root (mother) of all disasters. How's that?

The popularity of Cosplays

2009-02-01T16:01:00.004+08:00

As you guys know, or don't know, Singapore is greatly influenced by the American and Japanese cultures right? Especially lately, I noticed there's an increase in the amount of people doing Cosplay. I'm not sure if that is either for competition or some sort of gathering?

But nowadays, people are wearing those costume as per normal everyday lives dressing style. That kind of allow me to admire them for maybe 1 second, because how many Singaporeans would be daring enough to wear those attention seeking costumes, walking down the streets, and taking in all those weird glances passer by throwing at them. Unless you have a great deal of self confidence and self esteem, the task seems merely impossible lol. Or maybe the frenzy passion for Cosplay? Its pretty likely to say they want attention too? But that depends, not everyone are attention freaks.

And the weirdest thing is that both of them is located at the train station -.- Jkang is right, you can meet all kinds of weird people on train, sheesh.

Mental Note: The weather is SO hot, yet they looks so comfy haha, makes me wonder ;)

1/4 of a Hurricane scale?

2009-01-30T18:02:00.014+08:00

Yesterday was a long day, because I had work after school. This time round, the venue was at HDB Hub, Toa Payoh. The place is really nice and had amazing scenery. Oh its located at the 23rd storey of the building, so its actually quite breezy when we first got there. But then, it kinda became disastrous. I think calling it breezy in the first place was a grave understatement by me sheesh lol. And luckily, the weather prevailed, if not we will go crazy if it really rained.

what a view?

tables for 'lao yu sheng', oh and that's jkang haha.

the buffet line = foooood!

I said it was BREEZY! and it was, for a while.....

until...... we thought we would be blown away -.-

At the end of the day, both of us had mild headache from the wind, tsk... I didn't know too windy will caused headache. But it was fun, for like umm.... the first hour, the rest was horrendous lol.

bionic lemonade

2009-01-28T19:10:00.013+08:00

The current theme is as what stated above, 'Let's Keep Things Simple'. I've been using those over fanciful skins for quite a while, so its kinda nice to keep it plain and easy on the eyes once in a while. I bet that's the reason why Guo Xiang uses the default collections too haha. (psst, just agree even if you don't) And I called this skin, the BIONIC LEMONADE! How's that?

Lately have been rushing school projects, the deadline is in another 2 more weeks, and I still haven't cleared any of the 4 on my plate. In addition, I don't have the softwares needed on my laptop either. So basically I'm pretty screwed up here. But, its kinda nice to set your attention to something else, if not I think I will get too overwhelmed and stressed out if on kept focus on a task for too long. So its good to spend a little time off relaxing :) Anyway here's the song that I wanna introduce to you guys, I think its good, at least for me, so check it out haha.

We Cry - The Script
Note: [Lyrics] <---- click here. PS. How to add in labels? Any mentors? hahaha :D

CNY, Tennis and Love Matters

2009-01-27T14:55:00.007+08:00

First of all, a very Happy Chinese New Year to everyone! :)

I must say that this year have been an awesome celebration. Lots of good food, reunion and fun... and red packet too haha. Don't you just love Chinese New Year? lol.

For once in many years, I stayed over at my Grandma's house on Sunday night with all my cousins. So the plan was to catch a movie, and in the end we decided on 'Love Matters'. I totally regretted and must a retard to watch that sheesh.

That show basically consists of 3 sub-stories intertwining here and there. In my opinion, there is no plot and main storyline at all. The whole thing is so lame and ridiculous to watch. All of us were like trying to stay awake and get interested in the movie. But for the first time, I can't wait for the show to end. So whoever have not watch it, I suggest you use the money for another better movie. I feel so cheated :\ Because firstly, its not hilarious (even the extra from Mark Lee can do nothing about it), and its like a complete ripoff from 'Hard Candy' and '40 Year Old Virgin'. Its just plainly atrocious and horrendous!

Other than that spoiler, the whole hanging out was really fun.

Today morning, I went for a tennis session, and it was a pretty good workout. But the sun was kinda overwhelming at times, so it kinda dehydrate us really fast. I think its a factor too, make us get so tired easily. And I think I got a little sun burnt but it was fun :) Its about time I get a new frame. Now I'm stuffed and feeling sleepy, guess I should prolly take a nap haha. Adios.

work work

2009-01-18T21:23:00.006+08:00

Yes its me, and I know its almost February now but I've been BUSY! Uh, ok I'm lazy :\ Loads of stuffs happened, lets see....

1) I met a few weird people
2) I got misunderstood as a salesman once again
3) I realized I had a test tomorrow and I had not yet revised
4) Potatomato Productions is on a roll
5) I got a new part time job!

Talking about part time job, I'm currently working as an adhoc waiter (buffet catering). So on Friday evening, I went over to SMU Administrator Block, Alumni Function Room. And yea that place is really amazing compared to Singapore Polytechnic lol. It was really fun, I got to be a bartender, so its quite awesome haha. And there's a live band too - they were really good. They performed Apologize, Umbrella, some Maroon 5 songs and some Jason Mraz songs. After that, I get to eat the food lol, so I'm wondering if I'm actually working or not :)

the lounge, look at the place! sheesh.

the live band, I snapped this from my bar area haha :)

On the OTHER HAND... Saturday evening, Me and Jkang went over to Tuas uh 'Gaylink Internation Pte Ltd'. Okay so we were there, and the setup was not what we expected lol. It has this horrendous colorful 'GE TAI' and around 20 tables - we were told 20 pax buffet FYI. So yeah, we spent the night there in a pretty lame way, just slack and listen to the ge tai -.-

LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE MAN!

NOTE.: So if anyone interested in doing this simple job, do lemme know haha. Its $40-$50 per event, each event last around 4 hours.

Meet Angel the Golden Retriever

2008-12-28T17:02:00.004+08:00

Her name is 'Angel'. She is currently 2 months, still a puppy. Really mischievous, but really active Her name is 'Angel'. She is currently 2 months, still a puppy. Really mischievous, but really active and cute. She always cuddle on my lap lol for no reason, I guess she thought its her bed or something haha. So yeah, after 'Rocky' died from old age and sickness, my sister decides to get a new dog afterall thus ta-da!

twilight, turkey, and christmas tree!

2008-12-24T23:23:00.004+08:00

Today, went out with Guo Xiang haha, we caught 'Twilight'. I was wondering all the hype about the book. Well, the thing is that I did not read the novel before catching this movie. Which I think from past experiences - like Harry Potter, its indeed a very good thing. Or else I would pretty much feel disappointed in the end and not appreciate the movie that much.

Ratings: 4.0/5.0

Overall its was kinda good. Character development wise, I think it took way too long to develope. The female lead, was alright I think, but she could do so much better. Throughout the whole 2 hours, I did not see any change of facial expression from her, always that 'suffocating, in pain' frowning look. By the time it hits the first hour mark, it begins to irk me a little too much. The male lead was good though, although he looks so much better as Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter haha. But he potrays the character well, and really good. The story plot is interesting, just that the show is kinda draggy. I think because its the first of the series thus they rather focus more on the character development before throwing us in 2 hours of confusion. Maybe I will read the book, its interesting :)

So after the show, we were walking out of the shopping mall to get home. Suddenly, Guo Xiang passes me this box of chocolate haha. Too bad I didn't get anything for her, but I will, sometimes later when we meetup again. And I think I'm getting more comfortable around her, I was quite nervous initially, cause after so long, not sure what to talk about. Can't blame me can you GX? haha. Once again, thanks for the chocolate ;)

So nice of her lol.

Note: I'm eating while typing this LOL!

stargazers screening at old school sinema

2008-12-24T23:10:00.009+08:00

Yesterday, me and my bunch of classmates, we went to show our support for this short film 'The Stargazers'. Our lecturer (used to be, but not now anymore until recently lol) Jeanine is the Executive Producer for the film. How cool is that eh? haha. Thus, most of us went together because all of us were in school doing Production Design (which is seriously an utterly waste of time IMO). The show is screening at Old School Sinema - which is located at Dhoby Ghaut.

And to my friends, remember how I used to LOL'd and complain those 'retards' who will climb that superbly long stairway? I think karma just bit my butt last night, dang it!

Chilling out at Plaza Singapura at 8.15pm, screening starts at 9.00pm

Yup, the very first step of that ridiculous long stairway (and mind that I'm complaining as I climb that!)

Uh-huh.... not there yet, almost lol.

FINALLY! YAY!

This is it, and we were too dumb, and got lost haha :\

In the end, TADA! :)

Overall, I pretty much like the show haha, very nice. I think its about time to buck up my seat belt and prove my worth soon lol.

what would an individual do....

2008-12-17T21:32:00.002+08:00

Imagine... ...

You are only allowed to walk on a wide pavement leading you nowhere. There's no people, animal or any sign of living creatures. You are all alone, the sun casting strong harsh shadows everywhere. This road seems to be never ending. There's is no nearby bars, motels or even town. Trees and tall grasses filled up the empty spaces.

As you walk, and walk, you being to feel thirsty, dehydrated, and finally lost all the will and motivation you had in you when you took the first step on this journey. Then, you came to a halt.

You looked right in front of you, there lies a huge towering wall that acts as an obstacle hindering your journey. It is almost impossible to remove it with bare hands. At the side of the pavement, sleeping deeply is a humongous sludge hammer that seems to weight a million tonnes. It is also almost impossible to lift it up with sheer human strength.

A time to make a decision has arrived. What would your actions be that could determined the outcome of this journey. Will you give up whatever that is on the other side of the wall and walk back? Or will you move the hammer inch by inch, lift the hammer little by little and knock down the wall to proceed on?

So... what would you do?

good ole' rock song

Alter Bridge - Watch Over You

Leaves are on the ground
Fall has come
Blue skies turning grey
Like my love

I tried to carry you
And make you whole
But it was never enough
I must go

[Chorus:]
Who is gonna save you
When I'm gone?
And who'll watch over you
When I'm gone?

You say you care for me
But hide it well
How can you love someone
And not yourself?

[Chorus]

And when I'm gone
Who'll break your fall?
Who will you blame?

I can't go on
And let you lose it all
It's more than I can take
Who'll ease your pain?
Ease your pain

[Chorus:]
Who is gonna save you
When I'm gone?
Who'll watch over you?
Who will give you strength
When you're not strong?
Who'll watch over you
When I've gone away?

Snow is on the ground
Winters come
You long to hear my voice
But I'm long gone

Class outing at East Coast Park

2008-12-12T18:27:00.006+08:00

On Wednesday, we had our class outing over at East Coast Park. The day is actually pretty cloudy, so we're pretty lucky that it didn't rain eventually. I met up with Kenneth at Eunos to take bus 13. Since our pit is located at Section C, so no point taking to Bedok since its way further. We arrived around 2pm - and met up with the rest. Then, we hang out at the pit a while, chit chat, play some frisbee and did some nonsense stuffs haha. Then we went and ride some bicycles until its about time to start fire. The people started filling in at around 5-6pm. We're pretty fortunate that our class has pretty good relationships, some class bonding stinks like Balaji though, and I shall not go into that :\ Overall, the whole event was quite fun and successful I think :)

Its windy as usual.

Everyone was moving, only Zaidi wasn't, so he's the only one not blur haha.

Its a little pathetic that we had to write names on our cups in order not to waste cups lol.

That's Kenneth's hand btw, and he's doing the cooking :)

Affa's idea >_>

more pictures......

2008-12-09T18:14:00.014+08:00

These are from Brenda's Birthday Bash! hahaha :)

She's filling up with WOOL!

Wanru SUPPOSED to shower the dog, looks like she's strangling it :\

Chong Seng combing the fur, I realized he have a good father potential, sometimes.

This one for instance, 'BUANG - case', so alright let's move on...

And TADA... we were at the side doing the birth certificate, very troublesome.

And MISS "BLAX" received it, look at her happy face, tsk tsk!

She opens it.... and there's the husky and the photoframe! Oh, don't mind the indian though -.-

Miss "BLAX" posing with 'Oreo'.

That's the Birth Certificate I'm talking about :)

Jack's Birthday

2008-12-08T12:58:00.003+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACK!

Finally 21 already, what a long time.

So yesterday we went to celebrate his birthday with the usual company. When we reached Cineleisure, Jack told us that we should watch a movie first. In the end, we decided on 'Bolt'.

ratings: 4.5/5.0

The movie is really good, and funny too. John Travolta voiced as the dog, which I think he did an awesome job. Its not as easy as people think to be an amazing voice actor. The small details in the movie adds on to the whole feel in the movie. Like how the fur ruffles, and how the cat's tail wiggles side to side. I really don't mind watching it second time haha, so you guys should catch it too :)

After the movie, we had dinner at 'Sakura Restaurant' AGAIN! That will be the 3rd time within 6 months. What a spree ~ and we had fun? lol, not as fun but still bearable haha. I ate a lot, and I felt sleepy later on, in actual fact, I think my energy drop after that sumptous dinner. Then its the cake cutting ceremony! We had the place to play this horrible sing along birthday song which totally spoils the whole mood lah.

Everyone's stomach is stuffed, so we left the place and walk around Orchard Road. Then we saw a lot of people had this very small Santa Claus hat clipping on their heads. We thought is very cute and innovative, so we headed towards Takashimaya haha. Then on the way, a lot of birds chirping, and SUDDENLY......... De Neng begin to bitch around, I wondered what happen.

Note: He's botak cause he's currently serving National Service.

Then, he took a tissue paper out of his pocket, and wipe his head. I literally LOL'd at that moment. Out of so many people, the bird chose a BOTAK! What the heck... haha De Neng, better buy TOTO, and if win treat us eh? :D

I will upload pictures once I get from that bothersome sexy bitch *wink* hello Jack! oops :\

so much to write......

2008-11-26T18:25:00.004+08:00

Um, loads of stuffs, but I don't think my brain is functioning well enough to write all down. Let's see...

I started my work at Pastamania already, and I was stationed at the pizza corner. So my job was to actually learn how to make pizzas. The only difficult part was the dough, I can't seem to get it into shape, and lots of technique is required, so I guess I need to practice more often. But then again, its like throwing dough into the trash bag, a bit wasted. This week I did not work, because a lot of assignments need to be submitted, and besides, I'm gonna start work at the upcoming Sitex 2008 - as a promoter at the LG booth, so if you're going to be there, come and say hello lol :)

Then its Brenda's birthday! We went to had Botak Jones at Somerset. Uh, not exactly that nice, but the portion kinda make it up for the lack of taste. Right, so before we actually meet up with her and co. Me, Jack, Chong Seng and Wan Ru went on a present hunting trip! We headed over to Vivocity, and got her a Husky plushie from 'Make a Bear Factory'. In addition, we got her a toy flower too haha, and we also bought a photoframe cause I photoshopped something for her too.

Ok, then - we went to watch Madagascar 2. That movie was freaking hilarious, I think I LOL'd throughout the whole show. But then again, my comedic tolerance aint that high to begin with anyway.

ratings: 4/5

I spent like 30mins doing this, at 11pm+, and I'm way sleepy!

Um, I guess I'll post the pictures some other time. And break a leg tomorrow, hope I get high sales :) Adios!

a date with music and dance

2008-11-17T23:26:00.003+08:00

Lately nothing much has happened, and I'm basically too lazy to update. Or honestly, I can't think of anything to blog haha so that explains everything doesn't it?

Today after school, I head over to Cineleisure to catch 'High School Musical 3' with Guo Xiang. Its really nice to watch a show with a person that has common interest in you. And from what I know, I'm glad I manage to inspire Guo Xiang with musicals lol. Till now, I think I'm the only person among my friends that enjoy watching musicals. Other people just find it plainly cheesy and boring. Hanging out with Guo Xiang was fun, so we should prolly do it more often huh? haha.

The show itself was actually very nice. It was so much better than I expected. And I really learn a lot from the show in terms of camera techinques, editing, visual effects and etc etc and most importantly, how to bring a show with high level of difficulty like a musical into life. Its really radical thinking about making something like that. But its really impossible right now lol. The songs are much nicer, catchier and the whole show is more dramatic. Actually, I don't mind watching a second time :)

ratings: 4.5/5.0

So to all that who find this show really lame and boring, slap yourself and go watch it. Especially people of my course, you will learn loads trust me! No pun intended. Till then, adios :)

more class pictures......

2008-11-06T20:47:00.011+08:00

These are some pictures that I did not post previously, because I need to get them from my friends :) So here goes nothing...

Don't mind the girl :\

Say 'CHEESE!'

Another one taken at Mediacorp

Ummmm... how misleading is this picture?

This is once again..... unfortunately...... my actor >_>

Class photo 2: Graduation of Acting class

Oh and on a side note, I got myself a part time job - Kitchen Helper at Pastamania. The hourly rate is $5/hr including a meal. The working hours would be around 5-6 hours. So its quite possible that I can work more days since its short shift. I will be mainly helping the chefs in the kitchen, and during morning shift, I will be learning how to cook haha. And my outlet will be at Funan. They actually talked with me and discuss see if which outlet is convenient for me, since I will be heading to work after school, Funan will be the most idealistic area.

Keeping fingers cross for a great 'filming day' tomorrow!

I guess this is a belated birthday dedication post

2008-11-03T22:21:00.008+08:00

I have been really lagging behind in terms of wishing people's birthday. Which is really an intolerant part of me - laziness lol. Even after I noted down at the event's corner, but before I forget....

Happy Birthday to Guo Xiang! Finally you joined the rank of young adults, like me, haha. Thinking back, its has been so long, kinda nostalgic but yet this is the strength of our friendship. Hopefully it would continue strong :) Ah I don't know what else to write haha, I'm not that good with words unlike you who can flood a page with dedication so easily, wished I could do that too :\

Durin' the previous school break, I joined this forum lol - LAF! So and I kinda fool around with photoshop, and in the end the people there sent me requests in making them something graphical. And initially it was due to a favor, but after a while, I kinda like what I'm actually doing, and I guess this opens up another route for me, as a graphic designer. It may seem easy to people, but its actually not. I dare you to make something out if you think its EASY! - and of course we can learn from each other! lol :) So below are some blends I made, thought I should share it, because I haven't done that to my friends in Singapore lol (I'd shown them to my online friends in the States), if that make sense. And I'm a little proud because I like them a lot *whistling* so yeah.

updates from 'dont forget the lyrics'!

2008-11-01T16:29:00.009+08:00

My visit to Mediacorp was pretty amazing, other than the place is super deserted. But it was a good experience. And I haven't participate in these kinda school excursions for a long time, feels like secondary lifestyle haha. Unfortunately, we can't take pictures inside the studio. The whole show was pretty stressful and fun, especially from the mid part onwards - where the missing words increases till like 8 to 12?

Its really an eye opener to be inside a actual studio, watching all the production people working and doing their stuffs. It's neat! And we have to act a bit, like the cheering, applauding and such. The celebrities in person seems so 3D haha, like Gurmit Singh, Andrea Forseka, Jade Seah and Fiona Xie. It seems kinda surreal in fact lol, and the 3 ladies are really beautiful.

Alright time for pictures!

Gather round... gather round!

How can this feel 'not secondary' to you? :\ Nostalgic?

Look how excited Ahmad is... just like a kid lol.

This is unfortunately....... my actor -.-

Its about time for a group photo!

Thumbs up!

Water is good for health, drink more water :)

"Do you have some business with us?"

Gangsta number two! But I wonder why affa is smiling.

If you are wondering who is the guy that always snatches the limelight? There... you have it.

This is the PICTURE OF THE DAY! AHA.

updates from 'digital media festival 2008'!

2008-10-31T19:27:00.006+08:00

For the first time, I give myself a chance to attend a film festival. Keeping in mind that it will give me some inspiring moments and learning experiences. But in fact I guess I was so wrong on this lol. We reached the National Museum at around 8.20pm, and we are invited to attend the 2nd section of the thing. So yeah, and we had refreshment, and we fooled around in the meanwhile to kill of some spare time :)

The National Musuem of Singapore! Looks spooky at night though.

Festival Screening Pass :)

How about an old man that can move in potrait?

Are you looking at what I'm looking? It's a Vespa!

And then, its finally time to enter the auditorium. I was pretty stoked at first, then after the first 'Indie' film, I guess I'm like a deflated balloon. It sucks lol to be very honest. And I don't understand anything that is showing. So the whole thing was pretty mundane and boring. There was only one show that is worth watching, its called 'Sanctuary' which is made famous through internet - I'm guessing its youtube. So you guys can check it out, or google it haha. Other than that, none was worth complimenting. So yeah that's about it :)

Defination of the word, Spastic.

2008-10-26T17:51:00.009+08:00

What is your first impression when you hear the word 'SPASTIC'? Retarded, dumb, idiotic? haha. According to www.dictionary.com - its has an adjective and a noun.

–adjective

1.	pertaining to, of the nature of, or characterized by spasm, esp. tonic spasm.

–noun

2.	a person exhibiting such spasms.

SO its not exactly those adjectives that I'd mention above like retarded and stuffs. However, its more like these following references pictures...

Now thinking about it, I suspect that I'm starting to develop this personality/behavior complex. I might be an alien in disguise or moreover so, 'Ah Hua' from Hougang Resort. Oh well, that's all for now :)

2008-10-25T11:50:00.010+08:00

How about a total random post?! Yesterday had a reshoot with my group, and it went really well. Much faster than I expected, and I think maybe its because we stick to the plan, and not change the idea here and there so often. That ought to speed up the process. Nothing much happening today, initially planned to head out with Jkang and Kevin for recce and run some errands, but he had some problems all of a sudden, so the plan was aborted. I had a haircut, that auntie cut too short, which I'm not so pleased about it lol. Alright back to the random post.... some overdue pictures :)

Yesterday, Jun's house has a party for his 21st birthday! So the main chef are his mom and auntie. The place is very hot, because its crowded, and we kept laughing, so blood pressure higher. And I'm like the main clown over there, entertaining everyone. Tsk, what they would do without me leh? :\

scrumptious dinner :)

The birthday cake, weird - its PINK but its for a boy -.- But we always compliment that Jun is a chio bu so its okay I guess hahaha.

Mr Birthday Boy! Handsome right? THIS IS BEFORE!

Bro: *act like nothing* Jun: *want to sabo me hor?* Mom: HAHAHAHA! *he's gonna tio PIAK!*

And.... THIS IS AFTER!

That's all the picture I have, the rest have to visit Brenda `Sista blog. Today we went to Clementi for Kbox session. Jack kept insist that his voice keep shake and his chords cant open up. Which I think is crap! Very long never sing so its fun to anyhow sing. After the singing, I left them and head over to Bukit Batok for my Grandpa's birthday celebration. The food there is delicious, my Aunt is such a great cook, dang! Too bad you guys cant try it haha. Those who had tasted my Mom culinary skills before, imagine x3 of that? And the dessert wooot! :) Alright shall stop here, and prepare for schooling tomorrow.

Happy Birthday to TAN JUN HUI and my GRANDPA!

2008-10-14T19:29:00.002+08:00

Why is the start of school semester is so exhausting? Its merely the second day, and I'm half dead. Sheesh, I'm honestly sleep deprived. Today I had my first acting & directing class. It was really fun, but kinda embarrassing because I dont think I can act at all. And I think my facial expressions suck lol.

The scenario given - you are at a bus stop, and you have to act according to the idea you have churn out in that moment. So mine was a stingy, airheaded and snappy guy who was waiting for the bus to arrive, and this lady comes and persuade me to buy tissue., 3 for $1. So I turned down her offer and board the bus.

I think I did an okay job with it, but the feedback given was pretty alright. So the lecturer gave out a short script to all of us, and pair us up. Next week, we gonna do this scenario with the lines and act out. I'm tagged with Kenneth so lol, it should be fun! :D I didn't know acting was this fun haha. Hopefully I can do a good job!

~back to Nostale~

2008-10-10T17:52:00.008+08:00

Past few days, I was at Jun's fun filled Chalet at Aloha Loyang - Bungalow 3, Coucal! It has 4 rooms, living room, kitchen and 5 toilets lol. Its very spacious, and even have a walkway and pouch at the entrance. But the only disappointing factor is that its located at the back of the area, so literally, its a mosquito nest. The food is awesome, especially my Mom's Asam Fish, I'm so proud of her culinary skills LOL! Too bad for those who don't take spicy food, its a shame I think. How much would you rate it Jack? :\

A nicely packed present with my limited wrapping skills! Its a white audi-tech headphone.

Tada the entrance, don't mind the car, I know its image spoiling :)

More decorations..... HUH?!

A little accident on Jack's car, wonder who's the driver tsk tsk...

Mahjong.... A staple entertainment among Chalet-goers.

Fortress of unwrapped gifts, look at all the stuffs woot! Too bad I didn't manage to get a snap of his blissful face!

School is reopening soon, but I'm still having this holiday mood which isn't good. Need to stock up a few stuffs before Monday. Looks like I need to find a 'Kaki' to go shopping ummmm.... Adios!

2008-10-02T23:32:00.003+08:00

Today went to watch 'House Bunny'. This show is downright hilarious lemme tell you. I haven't watched such a kickass comedy is a long time. Nowadays all contain very lame content. So today, the usual gang (De neng, Jack, Jun and me) first head to Bukit Gombak to accompany De neng buy his barang barang, cause he's going into National Service in another umm 5 days? Will miss him haha, somehow. The vibe would no longer feel the same!!! After that we went to Paya Lebar to return our stuffs for the F1 event. And now we are free from Certis Cisco, thinking about it, its not very worth the time actually. But yeah hope the money comes in soon, maybe I'll feel better haha.

Then we meet up with Chong Seng at Plaza Singapura, as I mentioned earlier on, to watch House Bunny. Initially there's some mutal disagreement. Because DN and CS wanna watch 'Eagle Eye' and they think 'House Bunny' is stupid. And guess who laugh the loudest? -.- Tsk tsk....

The show is very funny, anyone who wanna have a good laugh should watch. The content is pretty good, but you need to understand what they are saying because if you don't.... it will not be that funny anymore. Oh and we had lunch at East Coast Park - KFC lol.

Ratings: 4.5/5.0

"It was nice talking to you..... so nice!"

What an experience!

For the past week, I had been slogging off at the F1 area as a protection officer. What I did mainly was traffic control - like directing traffic and making sure only the authorize vehicles are allow entry. The job was alright, pay wise was okay, but the whole management and the way they treat the employees is beyond disgusting. Some of the fortunate people got deploy at a regular site. So they have an easy life at work. Whereas the rest of us, simply the unfortunate ones, are drown with misery, literally.

No idea why I look like some those correction work folks

This is the site that I'm deployed, along with Jack too at Gate 1

As you can see Jack's body reaction explain everything innit? We are extremely BORED!

Singapore is the first to host a F1 Night-Street Race, this is one of the grandstand

Today marks the end of my this dimwit work, cause there isn't any responsibility and accountability from the management. Today is also the day where everyone had enough and gave a piece of their mind through actions - RESIGNED! Unlike Jack, who had to withdraw due to illness (rashes "_") But anyway, that job is really BLEEPed out to the core. Now they better count my pay correctly, if not *crack knuckles*

2008-09-20T18:16:00.010+08:00

For the past 5 grueling days, I was attending a course - Cisco Protection Officer. I never thought it was such a big deal. And I never knew to become a Protection Officer (Security), so much effort need to be put into it. So yesterday, it was the assessment day, I was in the afternoon batch. So I woke up at around 9.00am, and prepare myself for the day. Then I'm on my way.

ME! in my formal wear

In the waiting room, waiting to be called

So I stuck my butt in that room at 12.30pm. Then I wait, and wait.... and wait till 5.30pm. One instructor walks in and shouted 'ANG JIA WEI, FOLLOW ME' so yeah finally my turn. The moment I heard my name called, I think my heartbeat for once is faster than a dog lol. The assessment longest you can take is 4 hours, I completed in 2 hours straight, and was very pleased with myself haha. One single mistake = fail, but lucky my assesser is very kind, kept giving me hint on the steps in the scenario and kept giving me chances.

tada! I'm a competent P/O now :)

Today, head down to the headquaters to collect uniform with Chong Seng. Since by the time I completed the assessment, its already 6.45pm. And the place is closed. So I had to make extra effort again.

*grins widely*

After that, we met up with Jun, Jack and De Neng. Jack and Jun passed too, so they have to collect their uniforms too. De Neng still not sure will pass or not LMBO! Hopefully.... but scully he kanna a laoya assesser then = GG! Then head over to Bukit Timah for some food. Cause Jack kept on bitching that he needs to get his pants altered, really troublesome. And De Neng driving skill hor, horrible lol, totally no reassurance!

look at Jack, very focus on eating his char kuay tiao

Me and Chong Seng had a drink only, lol on diet :)

GIST OF THE DAY.......

(BEFORE)

(AFTER)

Now we all know, where to put De Neng when the car is full! No need to fight for seats on Jack's car already LOL!

2008-09-12T16:22:00.011+08:00

2 days ago.....

I went to Hui Xiang's Chalet at Aloha Changi, that place is really isolated. It is kinda inconvenient if you need to buy stuffs last minute or whatsoever along the line. You need to travel all the way to Pasir Ris lol, and that's what we did actually but nevermind, I'm not the one driving hahaha :)

And that place is actually kinda leave a bad taste in my mouth lol, I seriously dont think I will be booking that Chalet anywhere in the near future. That place is literally a mosquito nest! And its downright disgusting, even Jack also dont dare to shit, tahan till he reaches home and flood his toilet once again, as usual lol. That place is very near forest area I guess, so beside being very close to nature, even when you bathe, you can experience that too. Insects will be your companion for that, even earthworms and millipedes came when I bathe, how surreal is that?! No wonder the girls freaked out.

Alright enough complaining lol, back to business.

I did my very best to wrap this present with my limited skills, I dont think it look that bad :\

Finally done packing, waiting for the arrival of Jack to drive us over :)

Everyone's stuffs, and the place is huge!

Mahjong..... the staple entertainment in a chalet, how boring lol

I dont know who's sunshade is this, but its way cool, Jack is jealous he couldn't get this dang thing fit into his big box head

the buffet spread on the celebration day

Birthday cake! That picture is actually edible, but taste like rubber haha

Birthday BOY! (He had a real great cake-smashing-to-his-face-experience & he friggin' stick his face full of cake on me, wth.... -_-)

Group Photo - I dont really like this as much as others do :\

Today I woke up feeling refreshed! So I head down to my dental appointment, I forgotten its today actually, until that friggin' lady called me reminding me with her ever-so-as-usual annoyed tone lol. I changed to RED, finally. I think now National Day is over, its not so high in demand anymore. Props to the delivery man! Shall stop here, adios!

2008-09-05T22:05:00.002+08:00

Yesterday, me and Jack went to watch WALL-E at Marina Square while hunting some goodies. The movie, overall is pretty good, and has educational values lol - 'keep the Earth green & clean' :) But its not really that funny, which is a little disappointing in that factor.

Today, Jack, Jun, Chong Seng and I went to this Cisco uhh place at Paya Lebar for a job interview. So we waited, and waited & waited for hours, before we were called. Then, we got brief about the job scope, pay, working hours/shifts and other stuffs. The officer then asked for our height and weight. So this malay guy goes first. He said he's 167cm, then he doubt it and tries to size him up. Then its Chong Seng's turn, he said he's 169cm. The officer head snap SO fast between him and the malay guy, trying to judge properly. But he goes with the flow. Next is my turn, I said 170cm lol, he looked even more surprised, and snap his head towards Chong Seng again, making sure its right or something. But the whole process is kinda funny though :\

After making sure we are clear, that marks the end of the discussion. Hope everything goes smoothly, and we will be Protection Officer by end of this month LOL! Security Guard in another words -_-

So we had lunch at Bedok, and Dinner at Taka. I ate a lot! :) I had Curry Chicken and Mango Madness for lunch! For dinner, I had Yaki Udon set meal, and Dairy Queen 'Banana Waffle Crisp' - woah this is a must try! And Jack's singing sound like some dying duck or something, way ridiculous or awful or whatever term you can think of. I ordered large, so its a little too much, get a smaller size of that :) Don't be greedy ahhh, although its worth the $4.60. Okay De Neng? LMBO! :X

Mood: Satisfied

Did this thought 'How Singaporean are you?' ever crossed your mind? Have this question ever left you wondering and pondering over it? So lets tackle this issue today!

SO how Singaporean are you?!

This is a guideline based on my observation, its not right, but its not wrong either. So yeah... here we go~

A) VERY GOOD A BADGERING!

Elaboration: Constantly yakking on a person. Another word for yak (in hokkien - NIAM).

Scenario: EH BADMINTON LEH! COME ON LAH! SUNDAY BADMINTON! EH MAHJONG LEH! MAHJONG AI MAI? 10 CENT, 20 CENT!

How does this makes you very Singaporean? A typical Singaporean is very good at bargaining, like cutting down cost by pestering the seller. So if you are good at badgering people, its a +1 :)

B) VERY GOOD AT CALCULATING

Elaboration: Making sure the money spent is totally worth the money, in another words, cheap + good quality + good quantity!

Scenario 1: Walau, this is not good lor, completely waste my $5!

Scenario 2: OMG! This is good man, the food is nice, portion very big, and CHEAPPPP!!!

Again, how does this make you very Singaporean? Another virtue of being a Singaporean, we are born with this ability which non other have unless you are a Singaporean - KIASU!

Quoted above are purely my own observation, you can choose to prove me wrong lol, which I doubt so. And IF whoever feels you are the person that I'm implying, no no no offense lah ;)

Have a nice day everyone!

Mood: Freezing!

Yesterday, went over to Wan Ru's birthday party at Downtown East. So met up with Chong Seng and head over to Suntec to meet up with Jun. Then De Neng called around 4+, and he just woke up... I think he snuggle in the pool of mud, too comfortable - since its raining (easier to roll around, not so sticky!), dont wanna get out of bed. In the end, we met up with him at Suntec too.

The day went on not too good, it kept on raining constantly, without any break! Well since now its monsoon period, South East Asia sort of suffered real badly, it sucks anyway the weather. It made my nose worse day by day! So I had to use my nasal spray to JIAM SI DONG!

Anyway reach the chalet, a lot of people. And I dont even know half of them lol, so we stick to our own group like a pack of penguins! And Jack nonetheless look non-appealing as usual, nothing to be surprise about. The thing is I told him, he parked his car there, without putting coupons or whatever, is bound to get summon by Fatimah, and he told me SO CONFIDENTLY that he wont! And LMBO, the next day ta-da $30. See Jack I told you liao, dont believe me! *sigh* I'm so disappointed in you! :)

Okay so we mingle, eat, mingle some more, take pictures, cake cutting ceremony, mingle, take more pictures and head back home. So exciting! -_- and Chong Seng constantly putting up this 'I'M SO SIAN RIGHT NOW, MOOO!' or 'WHERE IS MY BANANA?!'

Alright thats it for now, gonna upload pictures when I get them from the endangered species TREE named HINABULAYA! Before I leave, I was bored, so here's something I fooled around with during my spare time LOL!

2008-08-16T22:00:00.011+08:00

Okay, I know this is way overdue but... I just wanna say, I'm still alive and kicking :) I'm on my vacations right now, and finally completed all my assignments and projects, so its a huge huge relieve in terms of stress level. So that calls for celebration! I haven't been posting a real, good entry - because 1) I'm lazy, 2) No material and don't feel like thinking of any good stuffs. At least I'm not that lame till post Liang Cao Wei's marriage like someone else :\

August 15th, 2008

Happy Birthday to MR. WONG DE NENG!

After heading to school to submit my last assignment for this semester - a water color painting of a scenery landscape. I went to my monthly dental checkup for my braces. This time round, I change into dark blue, I wanted red but due to national day, it ran out of stock -_-

this is the painting I did, I think I have no talent in these lol, buang!

Then, I rushed down to De Neng house, and loads of people were there already, but a lot of them, mostly I do not know lol. But anyway, we intended to talk and stuffs, but in the end everyone went home haha, sorry De Neng :) I dont know why all left :\

NOTE: We bought him a very expensive badminton racket, hopefully one day he can use it to participate in the Olympics!!! LOL!

durian cake, I'm guessing from angie the choice

birthday boy, look at him, chio pi pi!

16th August, 2008

Happy Birthday in advance to Kaixin - the actual is on the 19th.

Today went to Kaixin house for steamboat + hotplate (I think that's the term). And we had no idea what to get for her, so in the end - we got her $20 Starbucks voucher :) I think it isn't a bad gift. So we hung out, take photo as usual (Jack that camwhore have too many poses, so hard to catch up with him) lol. And its great to be able to catch up with each other's life and stuffs. Of course not with Jun and Jack - I see them till sian already :)

see what I'm talking about?

foooooood

ignore the newspaper, Kaixin's friend bake this, and its nice!

birthday girl, also chio pi pi - ing

I'm standing at a good spot, with a panda beside me in a bamboo forest, and a huge tree behind me

Okay, I shall stop here, my next mission will be using my photoshop skillZ to disrupt a photo taken of Jack. So be sure to check it out when I'm done ;) LOL!

Yeah, today - more filming... but this time round we finished it way sooner and everything is going smoothly. Feeling really productive today! :)

These few weeks would be real stressful and hectic, don't even have time to go out and stuffs - like catch a movie or hang out with friends. No time! Especially De Neng, I think he's Indian don't understand English or Chinese lol... keep telling him this 2 weeks not available but keep bombarding me to go out, play mahjong, badminton... etc etc -_-

Okay back to assignment rush!

Today is the day where I woke up the earliest, 7am lol... my Mom quoted that explains today's fine weather or whatever nvm. Yesterday headed over to Matthew house for filming, finally started our shooting, which is a group project. We are kinda behind time, as the due date is like in another 2 weeks but its already nothing special or to worry about... because it is as usual :) The only down point of the whole thing is simple - I felt sick lol. My nose allergy got so worse that I think some virus attack me! But it feels good to err wake up early lol... it somehow alters back my bodyclock I guess. Tomorrow will be having my presentation, which I had to act in a skit - not really looking forward to it though. Okay, I guess I shall stop here, nothing to blog anyways. Btw CS you suck LOL!

2008-07-23T12:50:00.002+08:00

Yeah I ditched school today, so I hope I don't get any warning letter soon lol. Went to watch 'The Dark Knight' yesterday which my poly friends. The show was in fact good, especially the visual effects used. However, my butt got numb throughout the 2hr30mins - I guess its the seat problem. And I feel that I really need to have the urgency regarding my assignments, I have been way too slack and lazy. Deadline is not any further, need to buck up big time! Com'on Shaun!

On a side note, this is one of the world's annoying toy.... caution::: it gets loud!

2008-07-15T21:15:00.002+08:00

Mood: Grrrrr...

Today something weird happened to my router, which I found out later on. So I was here wondering what's wrong with my web browser, so being an idiot, I kept on uninstalling and installing which is a complete waste of time. So I power up my old desktop and the same problem occurs. Here is where my old genes come into play - IT knowledge lol. And it proves I'm right, the problem lies with the DNS! So I had to reset my router and reconfigure everything. That process wasted 2 hours of my evening. Gosh, and I do not wish to elaborate on the reasons, its pretty dumb actually haha.

Anyway sorry Erika could not have lunch with you, I had a date with my Mom :) There's always next time haha.

2008-07-13T17:24:00.003+08:00

Mood: Pleasant

Yesterday went over to Cineleisure for Hancock with Jack, Dn, Jun, Brenda and Jinghui. Regarding the show, it was pretty alright, really cool visual effects. Storyline wasn't too bad, and the whole feel of the show wasn't bad too. So as usual we hang out a bunch, crack joke and fool around. It was fun, and on a side note, I think Dn should train his VT3 for another 10 years before declaring a challenge at me lol :)

I forgot where I read this article, its from yahoo news though. That Singapore is way below the standard mark on politics and human rights according to some organization. And they urge Singapore to take immediate actions. However I don't think it will be anyway possible, and one thing that makes me wonder... Why would a country named 'Republic of Singapore' have a democratic policy? Republic and Democracy just don't gel together that well. It kind of don't make any sense to me though.

Oh well, its hard to be in Singapore and not pay anything lol, we have even more ERPs than Malaysia's border toll fees. Things sure are getting tight!

EDITED: Thanks Brenda and Jun for the skinny tie :)

Mood: Sleepy

Recently nothing much happening, a normal boring school life of a student. Just finish drawing a Greek architectural building for my Matte Painting module - 1 more to go :) I feel like wasting my time now, even when I'm in school, our lecturer didn't teach much. I rather they upload some e-tutorials online and we can brush up and learn at home instead. I really feel that I'm going to school just for the attendance only, gosh!

Had a haircut yesterday, that hairdresser cut too short that I can't make it spike -_- So yeah I'd a bad hair day, and I need to wait for around 1 week for it to grow back to a more acceptable length. What's up with all those barbers, its like they're on adrenaline rush when they hear the word 'short layered'.

Today when I going home with Jkang, we bump onto a rare situation...

evidence!!!

WHAT THE HECK!

So far, the longest duration I had waited for a train is 8mins. Nothing beats that, today that record was broken. I waited 12mins like an idiot for a stupid train (no pun intended) which is way ridiculous. I should write a petition complaining :( Photo credits: Jkang. Shall stop here.

Alvin's birthday photos credit: TOH CHING SIAH! LOL ;D

Finally complete another assignment, 3D modeling. I don't really enjoy doing it, so stressful and takes a lot of time. Oh well at least I've cleared it for now, so another one down... 1 more to go. Oh boy!

Here are some photos taken during Alvin's Birthday celebration. I'm bored, let's have some picture caption!

Alvin: Yay! I'm finally 20!

Alvin: What's taking so long?
Weilin: *Sigh* I'm tired, and I don't feel like taking pictures now
Wilson: Ummm... so itchy
Me: *What's exactly is Wilson doing?!*

Qingxia: Look at the camera!
Weilin: Nah! I wanna look at you instead.

Me: You should smile like me!
Wilson: ....................................

Food! Yum yum!

This post is way overdue lol. Lets see, on Friday, went to Cindy's bbq at Pasir Ris. Her whole family is there too, so it's a little awkward there. But we had fun, we hang out a bunch and do some catching up :) We bought her a watch, so glad that she likes it haha.

Sunday went over to Lot 1 for the movie Get Smart with Jkang and Raymond. The show was dead funny, loads of dry wit in it, so if you are a person can't comprehend dry wit humor, then not really recommended. Nonetheless I like the movie a lot lol, funny stuffs. I simply love comedy, so light hearted and makes you happy ;D And it's not easy to film a comedy series so they are brilliant.

Monday meet up with Qingxia and Co. at 6pm in school. Then we head over to Jack's Place for dinner to celebrate Alvin's Birthday. All of us had a great dinner I suppose, it was fun. I really like all these gatherings. I'm unable to went gift hunt with them on Friday cause I'm occupied lol.

And I'm feeling way lazy recently, I skipped school on Tues and Wed (which is today), yeah I'm making full use of the attendance, I guess I should stop doing that if not I'll get a warning letter sooner or later lol. Where's the determination and self discipline man? Control!

That's what happened over those few days, and on a side note I got tagged by Erika.

Rules & Regulations:
a) People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blogs and replace any questions that they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves.

Is this called lesson or not?

2008-06-25T17:52:00.003+08:00

Mood: Satisfied

Today went to school for lesson. However, the catch here is there's no teaching involved lol. Those who want to do their assignment are able to do while the lecturer walks around to guide. And on a side note, he's late as usual like near 45 minutes. No surprises anymore, so used to it already I guess. So those who do not feel like working or rushing their work can slack and waste their time. I chose to work, and I feel accomplished cause I manage to clear a lot of my workload. So it's kinda a little relieve for me :)

Sometimes it makes me wonder, why our lecturer never implement online tutoring so we can just stay at home, work at our own pace, clearly even though we attended school, there's not much teaching.

Accidentally bump onto Mei Fang today on my trip to school lol. She's still the same, but is like getting better compared to last time. Such a coincidence, so we chit chat a bit, do some catching up, exchange some information and try to get ourselves updated about each other's life. So it's cool and neat to do that with your old friends.

Last but not least, Happy 18th Birthday to Terence and Kevin lol from DDM 2A 05 :) Cheers enjoy your birthday and best wishes.

Oh boy, what a day!

This entry is *cough* way overdue. A quick update, cause I'm lazy to do so but then again I do not want people think I'm dead somewhere lol. On Tuesday, celebrated my birthday in advance with Qingxia and Co. We went to Ang Mo Kio and have this steamboat. The food there wasn't bad, however it wasn't that delicious either. It was okay, but beside that, it's the effort that counts. Thanks Qingxia for planning (unless I'm very much mistaken) and the rest for attending. I appreciate it :)

On Thursday, the actual day, I actually went to hang out with some of my buddies. We headed out to have international buffet at Sakura. That is really well recommended, I would gladly go again lol. And on top of that we watched 'You don't mess with Zohan'. I find that show somehow disturbing with all those explicit scenes. But nonetheless it was hilarious.

After everything ends, we got pretty boring so we headed over to a playground and had some quality childhood times lol. We played hopscotch, blind mice and crocodile. It was fun to be honest, sometimes it is nice to have some nice memories of all these childhood games. I still remember during primary school, I always played hopscotch with my friends without fail, it's like our staple game in those years. Brings back good memories when all of us were naive and young lol.

School finally started and I haven't really adjust my bodyclock back. That explains why I'm so tired and sleepy today. I slept at 1230am last night and woke up at 3am because I couldn't fell asleep. So I simply gave up and spend the night surfing net, playing games. And as a result, this morning is disastrous. Alright shall stop here. I'm not even intending to edit or rephrase because I'm too tired to even concentrate on what I'm actually saying here.

Last note, thanks everyone for spending time with me on my 21st birthday, and also not leaving out those who sent their best wishes to me. I really appreciate, thanks :) Peace out.

Today I was browsing through some website, and I came across yahoo news. The news which plastered with a striking big headline caught my attention. Being curious, I exploit further into details. So here is the following article.

++++++++++

Singapore suspends military PT after deaths

SINGAPORE, June 12, 2008 (AFP) - Singapore's military has suspended its physical and endurance training for three days after two soldiers died this week, the defence minister said Thursday.

"I support the decision of the SAF to take a time-out on physical and endurance training for three days," Minister of Defence Teo Chee Hean said in a statement.

A pilot trainee collapsed Wednesday afternoon while undergoing jungle orientation training in Brunei and died later in hospital.

In the other incident, a recruit fainted a day earlier during a two-kilometre (1.2-mile) walk at a Singapore training centre and also died in hospital.

The defence minister said the suspension "will allow the SAF (Singapore Armed Forces) to review and refocus on such activities to ensure that proper procedures are in place and being followed before such training resumes."

Singapore has one of Asia's most modern armed forces, to which young men are drafted for national service.

"While the SAF needs to carry out realistic training, this will be done without compromise to safety," the minister said.

++++++++++

SO needless to quote, as a Singaporean male who haven't entered the National Service, this is something not to be taken lightly. Firstly, I makes me wonder how tough the actual training is, and how hard the 'in-charge' pushes the soldiers. Not all people have the same physical level or endurance. It may be easy for some, but also may be tough for some. I do think that the authority needs to keep this on check and come up with a suitable training plan which ensures the safety of the fellow soldiers.

Imagine you're a parent, after nearly 20 years of hardship raising your children then bam! this incident happens. How would you feel? It sucks big time that the only thing the authority can do is to give your son a honored burial and a sum of money. But what good does that make? You can't return someone a son back with those. It's heartbreaking to see all these accidents happening. Hopefully the authority would further alter the training program to a better, more safe and suitable one for every young man out there in the near future.

Some inspirations indeed...

*wipes away dust*

Phew, it has been a while lol. Last week my laptop crashed, so I have to send in for repair. After diagnosis, it happen that my motherboard was faulty. So I just manage to get back my laptop yesterday. It was neat that the whole fee is waived even though I'm not under the cover of warranty. So nice of 'HP' :)

This afternoon, have a session of badminton with some friends (the usual ah bungs) lol. It was nice to move your body once in a while. If not it gets all rusty and lethargic. That explain why I'm exhausted, currently on energy saving mode.

On a side note, I was thinking back on some of the things I tried before. I - am considered jack of all trades, yet master of none. I tried out writing before cause I thought being a writer is what I wanna to become. Then I went on to photography, cause I want to be able to capture important moments. I pick up new interest on the way every time but not able to complete the task at hand. In simple terms, I give up my interest pretty much.

So I wonder when am I able to pick up something that really strikes me and able to keep the interest? So many things inspire me, or maybe I have too many interest which I couldn't cope and keep up with? I personally don't think I have the focus to really multi task or split up my attention to all the interests I had.

Everyone had only 1 main importance and after you feel you had accomplished what you wanted, then people moved on to other things. A writer will always be a writer, being able to write and express themselves is what inspire them to carry on, which is what interest them in their lives. They only becomes a singer (or pick up other hobbies/interest) when he/she feels that they already accomplished what they've set for themselves as a writer. Does that make sense?

So I feel that what I need to do now, is to go do some soul searching lol. And find out what's really my main focus right now. Then I'm able to move forward and start a new chapter in my life :) Right now, its all stagnant.

Summer break!

It is finally summer vacations, but why am I feeling so dreadful. With all the assignments deadline nearing, and nowhere near completion is indeed mind bothering. So many things to do, so little time. Gosh, I guess I need to pick up some time management 101. I'm seriously having major brain block!

Yesterday my mom decided to give a lecture on me again. Telling me what's my plan after my NS. I honestly have no idea, I don't think I found my niche yet. I dream of a lot on what I wanted to do or become in near future. But reality wise, its not really that encouraging lol. I have a few interests, but will I ever get a dream job that I really like and enjoy working? Or grab any offers on the table and let my life be miserable, everyday seems like a torture at work. There's a lot of think about it, and plan out properly. But my mom feels that as long you are working, it is fine -.- Or even worse, when I mentioned I want to wait till I find a job that I feel comfortable with, she went on raving on how fast the jobs vacancies will be taken up especially with the job scope in Singapore nowadays. That I definitely need to jump on any offers right away after my NS. She added on that she doesn't understand what is going through my head, and what I'm thinking exactly. Honestly, I have no idea and I have the same big question mark towards her. I think that's generation gap.

Now I begin to doubt myself. What occupation am I going to be in the near future? I definitely haven't found my niche in life yet, it takes time and self realization. Besides minus the fact that the limited job scope Singapore is providing, I don't think I have a lot of choices left anyways. I guess I shall take up whatever it comes my way then. Gosh, this is really demoralizing :(

15 more days to a ripe age of 21. That shows living in this world for 21 years, still not knowing where my interests lies. This is tough. I guess I need to do some self reflection lol.

PS. Narnia anyone?

Today upon reaching home after a dry day of schooling, I decided to wash up my fan :) Since its getting dirty and tsk tsk.. not good. Then my mom bought 2 new pillows lol, so now my bed instantly turns into a comfy place with loads of pillows and quilt, I can snugger all I want. What I want now maybe a rainy day, snuggle on my bed, sipping hot chocolate while reading a book? How nice would that be!

Yesterday went out with Jack and Cs for 'What lies in Vegas' at Lot 1. Sheesh the area is pretty run down I guess due to all the relocation of the stores and renovation. Ironically what a nice place to be at for a weekend show. Thanks Jack, I really do appreciate the effort! >_>

The movie was alright, Cameron Diaz was stunning pretty as usual. Funny and witty - you really need to have a dry sense of humor to understand the 'deep' jokes which I unfortunately possessed. LOL! Storyline was nice, and the show is kinda heartfelt I guess. But overall was nice.

Alright, back to assignments! Psssh -.-

A few days ago, in fact nearly 1 week. I did some umm random stuffs on the net. I know its probably had a stale database on its server, and its mostly false. But then again, no harm trying to use it for minor references purpose right? :)

The hidden meaning behind my name:

Energetic and courageous you stand up for your beliefs and for what you desire. You are independent, strong willed and fiercely competitive when needed although your ambition is tempered with patience. You maintain a positive attitude and with a more organized or practical approach to life material success is very likely. Your immensely loving and generous nature brings joy into peoples lives and ensures your happiness.

Gentle, affectionate and tolerant you are nonetheless determined and ambitious with the ability to lead. Sympathetic and understanding you are a humanitarian who wishes to improve the lives of others less fortunate. You have a keen intellect, strong intuition and creative ideas which are always put to practical purpose. You are loved by others for your inspiring optimism and for being a genuine friend.

Make any sense?

This song is written and sung by 'Ryan Gillmor' for the AI songwriting competition. It made into the top 10 but never emerge as the winning piece. David Archuleta did his rendition on this song, without question remarkable. Here's the so called "egoistic lyrics" that old BLEEP Simon Cowell mentioned.

Mother, can you hear me for the first time I see
born into eyes not by my own decision
take me away from a life with no vision
step down from the subway,
climb the staircase to the street
spinning in circles and holding on tight
to this moment forever
if only tonight

I wanna be in this moment, no one can take it from me
I wanna stay in this moment, no one can take it away from me

Driving through the city for the first time you and me
staring through windows at my own reflection
how can a window encompass perfection
now that I know what it's like to be living
this beautiful world will never stop giving
I can't return to a life with no vision
born into eyes not by my own decision

I wanna be in this moment, no one can take it from me
I wanna stay in this moment, no one can take it away from me

Watching the world through the eyes of a child
sitting alone in my room
wishing that someone would take me away someday
give me a chance and I'll show you what's real
open your eyes and you'll see
that I'm stuck in a moment and no one can take it from me

I wanna be in this moment, no one can take it from me
I wanna stay in this moment, no one can take it away from me

I haven't really study the lyric, and I don't see what's wrong with it anyways. But then again, I have no idea what's wrong with Simon basically this season sheesh.

PS. Kudos to an amazing song composed and written :)

OMG-osh!

Yesterday marks the end of American Idol season 7. Sigh, David Cook was the newly crowned champion. I must say I indeed respect him as an artiste and he definitely deserve that title. Just a little disheartening I guess. Other than that its all good. On the other note, can't wait for Archie new album to launch, I'm so gonna buy it :) He's really impressive, when he perform you can almost feel the emotion, the passion and everything, especially the connection with that song, so so strong. I really like the vibe he brought into his singing style. Very modern yet kind of soulful, very contemporary sound. He's awesome and unbelievable. Seems like the nicest kid too to ever sail across the AI platform. I'm stoke for his musics, like what he can offer to the public from now on without the whole competition/production scrutiny.

Alright with all that being said, shall stop here. Lol, I simply couldn't keep it down :) Need to voice it out. Ciaos

Today, has been a really hot day. Scorching-ridiculous-hot. After school, I decided to stock up my contact lens, so I need to make a trip to the plaza near my house. Upon exiting the station, I was hit by the first wave of heat! No joke, serious, it was really overwhelming. I thought of changing brand - so I decided on 'Acuvue' instead of my usual 'Baush and Lombes'(sp?). It was more expensive but I heard its thinner and more comfy :)

Before heading home I bought MOPIKO *background music starts to play* I have been getting mosquitoes bite recently. And I honestly suspect is the same bug. I caught that thing flying around a few times already but I couldn't killed it in time. So it has been biting me repetitively.

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
You say...

One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's...

Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One...life

Catches 'Iron man' on the silver screen yesterday at 'The Grand Cathay' with Jun and Jing Hui. I really compliment the visual effects used. It was beyond brilliant. I truly enjoyed this show. Definitely worth my money, so those lurkers who are still deciding, well it's a great catch so just go for it.

On monday, after lesson headed over to IMM for a cake hunt. Cause going to celebrate Wilson's birthday :) After that I slack at Mac for nearly 2 hours 30 mins >_> Sheesh. But then the effort to make this birthday celebration a happy and good one is worth it I guess. No pictures yet.

Yesterday had my PVFX presentation. As usual I was a nervous wreck. I already planned my speech and everything. However, when I'm up there, I got nervous, lips went dry like sahara desert and the rest was a history =_= I was like skipping points, rushing through the presentation, babbling and dissing non-stop. Dang, I simply cannot do a public speaking well I guess. Umm nope scratch that, I hate public speaking =\ After so many years, still the same. Whenever involve a public, I will be a gone case lol.

So today, I woke up. Feeling really lethargic. I guess due to this week rushing my storyboards, don't have ample of rest. And yeah not working out. So today I decided to go for a jog, and I think I went too far. Predicting tomorrow definitely some parts of my body will be sore. However, it is always good to go for a jog. It's a time to let your mind wander and rest. Because we are always constantly focusing on something which is really draining. So once in a while it is awesome to give yourself a break. In return, you will feel more perk and able to concentrate better :)

Music: Dreaming with a broken heart (John Mayer)

Recently keep having this side headache which is totally annoying. Plus my practical lesson was really draining. 3 hours of sheer practice non stop was too much I guess.

I suddenly feel that Singapore is really a hard place for young hopeful to pursue their dreams. Cause mainly it is small. Hey that's a fact! And we are very business oriented country. So not much for the arts, musics, or even other mainstream. I had wanted to take on a job which is actually one of my hobby. But then, it will merely stay as an illusion. When my mom asked me "what you intend to do in the future?". I always told her I've no idea. Then she will remind me to better think about it thoroughly and plan ahead. But I don't feel the need to ironically.

I wanted to do something with music. But first thing first, I do not know how to achieve that. Cause I don't have any musical knowledge, so even if I learn, either will be too late or the job scope is as small as - maybe a speck of dirt? So that's a no no. Now thinking about it, I'm 20 going to be 21 this coming year. When I finish my studies, I will be enlisted in NS. Then, I will be shove into the aimless working world of adults. Sigh.. It's really dang important to have an aim and work towards it. But - till now I still have no idea what job I would pick up in the near future.

Singapore is sounding as limited as it looks.

"What a feeling it is, to have a ray of light shining into your pitch dark room. The warmth makes you shudder as if taking one last breath away from you."

PS. Loads of negative energy going around. It's ~~creepy~~ weird =o

6) Singing talent? During shower and at bedroom, night time lol :)

7) I don't know any musical instruments, umm maybe other than recorder?

8) Least favourite subjects - Social Studies, English Literature and Maths

9) I prefer potato over rice as a staple source of carbo intake.

10) I'm not a morning person or even a night owl - it all depends on my mood =D

Okay, I'm done with mine. So it's you guys turn :) Either can note it down under 'Comment' or you can post in your blog entries, I'll be sure to check it out.

So finally I've manage to find a new skin. It's not easy in the first place, cause most of the skins are either too feminine or plain. I actually prefer white background, and not too fancy or the designs are too congested. But I suppose darker skins have more of the 'masculine' factor, feel free to think otherwise :) So I added a few gadgets to err.. make it look more occupied? Yeah that's about it anyways.

I've been feeling kinda confused lately, the thoughts just sort of left me hanging there without appropriate answers. So as I put it aside, I'm hurting people slowly yet unintentionally. Things are definitely starting to fall apart, into pieces as time goes by. Is it the lack of effort and commitment from me, or things just turn bland by itself as time goes by? Or do you expects a lot from me, but still remaining silent without speaking up your mind. I honestly feel that I'm just like a deer in the headlight, and I would rather you just throw everything onto my face :\

I'm stressed out.

Today, headed down to the dental with my Mom. So after the doctor checked out every single detail from the x rays I taken yesterday, he proceed to extract one (yeah, that's the keyword) of my very decayed molar which is located at the very left side of my mouth. Ironically, he took nearly 2 hours to complete the task. I can see he really uses every ounce of strength he had in his body LOL! He twist, prod, poke, pull whatever method he could think of, but my tooth ain't coming out without a fight I assume. SO after much much much effort, he still could not extract it out. Needless to say, he uses the most powerful technique, which is to cut open and pluck it out, then sew it back.

During my consultation, my whole lefty side of my mouth is basically numb, so that's explained why I never yelp or swear =\ However, I finally understood how 'Sylvester Stallone' felt ==" He cited that my teeth are very dense, (I guess from my intake of calcium, at least I know the calcium is working) and the - what do you called it, the part inside your gums? The root? Canal? I assumed you guys know what I meant. Yeah anyways, he claimed that it was very deep and strong so impossible to extract using brute force.

So now the numbness wears off, I'm on painkiller. But the amount of pain is still there, and it's definitely causing me difficulty. I hope the other 2 tooth won't possess such trouble, if not I would really swear - which I'm not allowed to btw =="

On the good side, I gotten a 3 days MC :) So I can rest and recuperate at home.

I'm a big fan of little David, and his voice is brilliant. I CAN'T KEEP IT DOWN..!!! HAHAHA

Don't you just feel connected with him when he performed? Like you're feeling what's going through in his mind and feeling how he felt. I guess that's the power of music and he's such an amazing singer. You can almost feel his heartfelt honesty and sincerity when he takes the stage.

Music: Somewhere Over The Rainbow -- Katherine Mcphee

Talk about the first day of school after a very long vacation break, I can only think of a word to describe it - disastrous!

From the crowded MRT to the school. OMG! It was like human stacko, stack stack and squeeze as much as you can. Or maybe a challenge on the maximum number of people could get into a train? Sheesh, it simply ridiculous, from the pushing to cramping you to a tight space. What's with the rush man =="

As I was at Jurong East waiting for the transfer train over to Dover, more and more people filled up the platform. Then the train arrives, the door opens, everything was in a mad rush. I was thinking 'Ohh that was really pack. I should board on the next train instead'. HOWEVER, as you all can imagine, this uncle sort of pretty much push me into the train. I was brought into the cramp train with the flow! That was neat, ironically due to that, I arrived earlier =="

Not only the lesson was droning and boring, I totally could not absorb any one of the stuffs taught today. It seems like an auto pilot mode ==" I guess everyone feels the same ehh? Looks like need some adjusting to correct back our mood and body clock. Anyways beside this, I'm wondering, how did left handers come into the big picture. Was they born with it, or adept it throughout the years.

One of the possible reasons was that there was some neurological disorders. Some say it was adapted when we were still infants, which hand do we use more often, or closer to our mouth - cause we used to suck our thumbs :)

Study shows that 7-10% of the adult population was left handed, and proven more males to females. Higher testosterone level also could lead to usage of left hand (no wonder more guys are left handed, that's kinda explain it).

It is also said that left hander's brain are structured differently from the norm, thus widens their range of abilities. Because the genes that determine left handedness also govern development of the language centers of the brain.

Though being a left hander is tough, and learning ain't an easy chore to accomplish. But however, from the research and studies, I must admit that it is indeed a blessing in disguise innit? :)

Monday Blues, Monday Blues
Oh how I hate, the
Monday Blues.

The early mornings,
when you have to wake up for school,
brush your teeth,
breakfast.
Why can’t we have an hour extra?
To snooze …
To snooze…
Or even better:
Let’s have no Mondays!
Then wouldn’t it be called
the Tuesday Blues?

Why are Monday mornings so blue,
and not red?
Red,
the colour of energy,
the colour of blood.
Maybe our Mondays
wouldn’t be all blue and sad,
if they called it
the Monday Magentas!

Oh how I hate,
those Monday Blues!
My mind drifts off into
a world. Any world-
Any world
without a Blue Monday!

I guess,
our Monday Blues
can’t really
disappear.
Just like that.
Call the Music Demon,
it will sing for you,
sing those Monday Blues away…

Sing those Monday Blues away…

I never knew that putting on braces could be so troublesome and complicated. So on Friday, I headed down to my dental clinic with my mom, and my grandmother. (I've no idea why she went to, maybe she stay nearby and decided to go KPO ==") Then, the doctor ask me to do the infamous 'AHHH!' So he prod, ask questions, prod some more, ask me to bite then conclude his analysis. He said my condition is very much bad, thus seriously need to put on braces. And he even said I had quite a few problems.

1) He never saw any wisdom tooth, so he said maybe are still inside. May need to remove it.

2) I had a tooth with a BIG hole (its now filled with ceramic) which my primary school dental decided to imprint some of her masterwork dearly on me. In my opinion, I hope she get fired. If I ever saw her again, I definitely go up and give her an uppercut =\ (provided I even recognise her)

3) I have minor gum problems :(

So much to do, so little time. I always wondered did doctor ever passed their English? Sheesh, they sure does have ugly handwriting. I think they don't know how to spell it, so just scribble through it? I can't even read out one word from the letter he issued me for my X-ray on coming Tuesday ==" Ohh well ~

This is overdue...

I don't understand why, I'm constantly wondering and thinking

Maybe it's because I'm not as ~~great~~ perfect as you think

Maybe you expect a great lot and I can't deliver

How would it even happened, after what you told me it's silly

To be back on the same page where it all first started

Embracing onto the past, it pointless

How could I make it better, to make you feel better

Once again, I'm constantly brainstorming

Hoping a perfect solution would surface

But none came, in fact, I felt sad and hurt on behalf

I'm not ashamed of having you, but insecurities are obviously an issue

I hope we'll take down obstacles together from now on

Delete those rotten memories and let it be gone

Tell me when you are ready to speak

I'll be here anytime to listen to it

But the thing is, I don't remember ever doing any services, or leading any big events though -.- So since it came, what for refuse right? When it has money involved xD So finally today I dragged my butt out of my cozy bed, and head down to the campus to collect it. Reason being, I've been really postponing it, ~~too lazy to make a trip purposely down~~ too lazy to purposely make a trip down *dang it, what's with my english >_>*.

Thus, I went to the bus stop to wait for bus 963. After 2 years of enduring this stupid nonsense crap bus service, due to it dreadful long waiting time, and stupid management - today there is no difference. Psssh! I waited for almost 30 minutes for the bus through and fro -.- Dammit!

On Monday, err I think it's on that day. Went to Sakae Sushi for lunch :) It's been a period since I last went, so it's a treat xD Although I overspent a little, however I guess its kinda fun and worth it.

These few days, my cute little nephew with a 'British Accent' twang has been spending time here at my house. So looks like he's really having loads of fun. However, for me I guess it's just a relinquish of childhood memories. He would always come 'KPO' with me, and keep asking me stuffs. And besides that, I have to accompany him watch shows. That includes 'Power Rangers', 'Pokemon', 'Mickey Mouse', 'Tom & Jerry' and 'Barney' -.- Ok I stand to correct, I don't watch Barney, my era is 'Teletubbies' =\ HAHAHA! But he's really noisy, sheeesh ~

Umm school starting in 2 more weeks, and I've smoothly sailed into my second year of Polytechnic with average GPA. But I got into the option I desired, and I hope the following modules would be really fun. At last, no more programmings! BYE BYE to JAVA!!!! HAHAHAHA!

Mood: Feeling Sick
Music: I'll Be -- Edwin McCain

Alright! I know that I haven't been updating. Well ~ No time to sit down and gather my thoughts I guess. So lets carry on from Wednesday shall we? I woke up real early on that day, do a final pack up, make sure everything is in place and not forgetting to bring anything that's important - lets say toothbrush or towel? So at 1040, Jack and De Neng arrived at my crib to load the food into his car. Then, I rushed (yes, that's the keyword -.-) down to 'Jurong East Mrt' to meet up with Ling :) Cause I'm late. Met up with the rest at 'Pasir Ris', and prepares to check into our chalet at 'Aloha Loyang'.

Our stay at the chalet is pretty the same, other than some spooky incidents. Overall it was alright. In fact, the stay was spooky. Gah ~ I think Brenda got scared till her hair stands out like a pig HAHAHA oops =X (thats what she said herself, I'm only err expressing out what she said)
For me, it's just a feeling I guess. Dang it! Anyway everyone is extremely deprive from sleep and falling sick.

School term is starting in another few weeks. Suddenly everything felt rushed. And I guess I really need to put myself back into the study mood cause it's definitely a fast paced system. So to better benefit, really need to act beforehand xD

Umm, I think no more stuffs to note down already. Brain still protesting for more sleep :) Shall do that! Ciaos.

Today went out to catch 'Step Up 2' with Jack at Lido. Besides that I finally gotten my crumpler bag xDD So happy hahahaha :) It has been like forever, well their bags are expensive but at least it'll last me a few years.

So about the movie, it's actually a sequel from 'Step Up 1', but they uses a sort of back story to link onto it I guess. With a brief appearance from Channing Tatum [he's a good dancer btw], it sort of pushes the story to this girl. This show is great I think, the story was simple, not great but they somehow consolidate it with those brilliant and radical dance moves and choreography. Robert Hoffman really is an amazing dancer, Briana Evigan wasn't too bad anyway. A few funny moments, but overall the final showdown is just simply awesome. Very inspiring too :)

I somehow realized that in these kind of show, they always cast the male lead as umm how to put it - those 'hot, good looking, nice person' all in one package stereotypes. Then the female lead will also be those 'sexy, beautiful etc etc' LOL! =\

Anyway must watch! I shall rate it 8/10 xDD I'm more of impressed by Robert Hoffman than Briana Evigan though, but well he's a dancer and choreographer. He's doing what he had in him, so no surprises. Shall stop here :) Remember to check it out! Ciaos

Recently have been trying out baking, with a burning passion Mr Wong De Neng. So we tried to do 'banana chocolate muffin'. Our first try, we don't have accurate measurements, in addition we uses convention baking. Needless to say, we failed miserably. But we didn't give up :) There's always extra points for being motivated and determined.

SO we tried a second time xD This time with actual measurement AND portable oven. However, the results are still the same. FAIL !!! Honestly, I think we really need to do some soul searching -.-

Today went out with Jun and Co. for a movie - we watched 'Spiderwick Chronicles'. So before that, I made a trip down to Bangkit's POSB branch to drop my cheque and renew my ATM card cause its cracked. It took a while, but I got my new GO! card and I think its cool =D So I rushed down to AMK Hub, since by the time I'm done at the bank its already 4.30, and the show starts at 5.35pm =_= Talk about good time management. However, I wasted 20mins waiting for the horrible SBS bus 138. It's definitely ~~not~~ an unpleasant ride =\

During the journey, a bypass 'Upper Thomson Road' and 'Yio Chu Kang' area. A sudden thought came across my mind. I was kind of taken aback why I was suddenly reminded of it though. I was thinking of 'ehh? Pastor's house is also around this premises'. Then next stop, Pastor and Uncle Nah boarded the bus. Talk about coincidence. So I went to greet them at AMK hub, and the feeling I had was umm, can't really describe but definitely positive :) In the end, they ended up watching the same show as us, they are seated behind though.

I'll give it a rating of 8/10

Bottomline, definitely worth my money watching this show. It was nice and interesting, although the part where the most evil nemesis died is pretty lame. But Freddie Highmore played it really good. Despite the young age, and 2 character to display. Very nice visual effects and I kinda like the storyline xD Must watch!

Umm, I kinda hungry, guess I shall go and grab something to eat =D Ciaos ~

Music: Waiting On The World To Change -- John Mayer

Yesterday went out with Yanny, since it has been a while we last went out. Due to both of us working, either is our schedule always clashes or we both are just plainly tired. We went to watch 'Meet the Spartans'. Well it was really ridiculous funny, damn I was like laughing most of the time. I think it was just so dumb and lame, dry humor I guess. Umm for those who wanna have a good laugh at their idiotic acts, its definitely a recommended show. So we hang out, and played a few shooting video games at the arcade. Once again I died first in 'Silent Hill'. The computer is BIASED, always aim me >.<

Today had our baking session with De Neng and Jeremiah. Damn, it was *cough cough* err okay I guess. The chocolate was seriously too sweet, and the muffins taste weird LOL! Needless to say, De Neng's fault as usual LAH! =\

the time is nearing, would you enter the opened door, or withdraw and await another chance?

Music: Love The One You're With -- Luther Vandross

These few days pretty much the same, working and more carrying. So yesterday is officially our last day of work. It was kind of relieved I guess, because our body really is tested to be pushed to the brink of our limits. And just can't wait for the paycheck xD Let's see umm...

The most memorable about this job: There's this forklift driver. I think he's a Malaysian, and he is one hell of a bastard man. Imagine you slogging off at work, and to have someone sitting there, watching you working. Delivering some snick comments once in a while, and talk about you out loud until like you're practically not doing it well AND you are slacking. So this taunting just pisses me off man. Saying stuffs like "why so slow? you should do faster", "hey you tired ardy? that was fast", "stop slacking! you're not doing properly, look at the auntie" hem hem the auntie is just tapping on the cans ok, while we have to carry like a dog. I swear to God I feel like retorting him back. DULAN! Honestly, I had never in my life felt the urge to curse and swear a person this much -.-

The least memorable about this job: N/A

So today had a day out with friends, and went to town :) It's called chilling out man. Wanted to get some tees but don't have the size, or should I say MY size. Been a while since I had waffles with ice cream =D So today is the lucky day :) So in the end, today definitely not a great day to shop. Everything just went out of my schedule psssh >.< However, still I got a tee. Anyways, on the other note check this out :)

Note: This refers to a Gemini man in general terms.

A man in this Zodiac has a thin long and proportional face. He has a high forehead and very cleaver.

"this part I feel kind of crap"

He looks like he can not stand or sit still, a very fast person. His nose is just right in size, thin lips, talk fast and very talkative. He can think faster than he talks, but once he start talking, he will talk non stop as if god has gifted him with that special talk machine mouth. He likes to cut his hair short and he is very athletic. He is a tall, slim and every movement of his is "Fast" or nearly call "Hyperactive".

"I had no choice but i kinda agree"

He has a long fingers and always tapping on table or moving his finger as if he is trying to grab something. He is the type who will write or scribble on paper, he never stay still. His hair always well comb or neat. He will spent a long time to comb his hair. He will keep his manicure and pedicure clean.
He is a well dress and clean guy, so if you like cleanliness, you will love him.

"what do you think...?"

He will keep all his cloth in big closet, and never throw away even shirts he never wear any more, but yet he still keep buying new cloths and make sure he is in style.

"I think this just hit on the jackpot =\"

He knows how to dress well even with a low budget. He get bored easily with his favorite cloths, cologne. He is very picky, so soap and his cologne even have to be in the same trend or same scent.

"I wonder ~"

If you date this kind of guy, you might think you are dating 2 guys, you will have to guess his feeling and emotion. Is he doing thing because it is a duty, or is it because he wants to?

"Err I shall rate it 8/10 on this comment"

He change his mind as fast as he change a new pairs of shoes. He can pick up a book and roughly read through and understand it's contents, so if you see a Gemini man who reads the whole book, then he must be influenced by other Zodiac.

"yup I do change my mindset pretty fast xD"

He hate to set fix schedule, and dislike a boring same routine job.

"bingo!!! *ding ding ding* you've scored 10 points"

He could hardly be on time, and can only keep time if it is complete important and necessary. He does not come late because he forgets, but because he always find other attractions along the way.

"umm i tend to get err.. distracted =\"

He likes to act opposite to what he wants to do. He is a very good speaker and make a very good politician. He can easily persuade other people and well presented himself in public, a
real charmer. If he is a writer, he will write the best seller.

"i doubt so, don't have the talent lah hahas"

He always search for truth and constantly study himself. He never satisfy about his fame, his reputation or money, because he thinks he deserved more. He will keep searching even he is not sure what is his ultimate satisfaction.

"uh uh.. i don't agree"

Woman in love normally wants to feel secure and stable, but if you fall in love with this guy be prepare to be alone. He will come to see you when he feels like it. He won't even know how he spent his days everyday, so adjust yourself if you love him.

"ehh..."

Dating him is like dating 2 guys, so today he can tell you how much he loves you, but tomorrow he might call you to cancel your date. When he upsets, he could tell you he hate your dress, even it is the same dress he used to tell you make you look very sexy. Do not ask him why he is that's way for he won't have any explanations too. When he is back to normal mood, he will take you out again and forget what just happened.

"gosh did I ever do this before?"

You can not expect him to be the same person now, and forever. His changes will depend on you, for better or for worst. If you like to take risk and dare for challenges, you will get along with him fine. He keeps his emotional secretly as if hiding it, so you will not be able to see if he crazy in love with you, or does not give a damn at all, but be calm and patient. He will never leave you if he thinks you are a puzzle, then he will spent times solving this puzzle.

"everyone changes, what's the deal -.-"

*Massaging my arms and legs*

Yesterday and today had really honestly SERIOUSLY been a hard and tough day for me. Err okay maybe for Jack, De Neng and Jkang too. I can't vouch for them, well its their body regardlessly. So I or we started on this job, JJ Herbal Tea. We had to check the cans whether is it in good shape or not. So basically what we do is carry over, unwrap it, knock on the cap, then move over to another platform and sealed it. So to the point, it is very physically demanding. If its a few hours it definitely will not be that bad at all. However, we had been doing this repetitively for 8 hours, excluding breaks. So what do you think? Psssh -.-

However on the other hand, I check my grades last night. So I'm successfully through into year 2 of Polytechnic =D Ahh so happy, that I did pretty well. Especially for my Java, gosh I was so nervous, I guess my theory sort of pulled me up. Only had a 'D' and I don't really wanna talk about it =_= Now what's next is awaiting the posting of options in second year, so keeping my fingers crossed XXXXXXXXXX Ahhh, I'm nervous talking about it. Shall stop here, can't wait for weekends = a break from work. Sheesh!

Yesterday headed over to Bugis. I went to collect the rings at the 'Silver Corner' while Jack bought his perfume over at 'Sasa'. Ehh wait, I think it should be called cologne for guys? Ahh anyways.. So after what seems like hours of sniffing and getting my nose all sensitive. He finally decided on the new DKNY's choice. Well to me, it smelled like 'strawberry mint' though. I can hardly imagine, a big potato sack that carries the smell of.. you know strawberry mint LOL! *in a Jack's manner* OoPs =X

So later on, we travel back to Marina area. We went to err 'Mintmark and Co.' for my necklace, since I had a 15% voucher so whats a better chance to get a new necklace xDD Ok now thinking about it seems like I spent a little teeny weeny more on it. But what's done is done, so I hope it will last longer than its previous cousins.

Before we head back to 'Marina Square' for our movie; 'Fool's Gold', I dragged Jack all the way to 'Raffles City's Starbucks'. Umm honey, I think you may count this as a surprise visit from me =D So passed her the ring and since she's working, and I shouldn't be interrupting her working, we left. No lah, lol actually we're running late for our movie xDD

photos are unavailable

As for the movie, if you guys like treasure hunting, or those adventures sort of thing. This could be a catch for you guys. Pretty okay in terms of storyline and exploitations. One thing I loved the most is the settings; the background settings. Stunningly beautiful! I shall grade it, umm let's see.. 7.5/10

Okay shall update as soon I have something to post, till then. Peace out! :)

On Wednesday, head over to err do engraving/carving on the rings. So head down to Bugis with Yanny xDD Then went over to Marina Square to catch 'Jumper'.

The show was okay - as in storyline. However I think the effects was great :) Very nicely done. The ending wise was a little umm, how can I put it nicely. The story sort of stop there? Most probably there's a sequel to it. And if there are more action it would be even better, as in fighting, actions =D

Yesterday head over to work again. God! It was still as boring as ever. It seems like the time pass there had it reduce by 2 times. It was that slow ok, the people there a bit anti social one lol, never talk. Seriously, we're all like lifeless zombies tottering around -.- Sheesh

Today practically did nothing, umm woke up at 4pm xDD I was that tired and yearning for a long night rest. Did the err body cholesterol count, something like that. According, 'Asians' have less dense bones structure however, have more body fat percentage. So generally the percentage for mens are 18% and womens are 25%. Top athletes have a range from 3% to 12%. (All these results are done according to water immersion test)

So being the curious me, I went to do the test. And I got my results, in total of my weight, 6.4kg are body fat, the rest are lean (muscles, bone density, body water). So converted, I have a total of 11% body fat xDD I'm so proud *shows gwen stefani's smile and waves* Wahaha okay shall stop here :)

PS. For lyrics, check out some lyrics site for it. Reason for it? "FOR WORLD PEACE!" *frantic camera flashes clicking away* =D

Today had to work, the job I could only puff out a single word - terrible! Me and Jkang didn't do the 'distributing' job, we did the 'collecting' which is at the back of the warehouse. The air ventilation is atrocious, little sunlight, very stuffy and super dusty =_= So I really had a hard time due to my nasal rhinitis. It's just plainly ridiculous, guess I had to go for job hunting again. Sheesh - these pictures are follow up of last blog entry.

me and brenda with 'oscar' the fish

ok I honestly don't wanna do this but bren keep INSIST! =_=

I guess I'm gonna sleep real early tonight, till then ciaos.

-----------------------------------------------

Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
How to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life

Yesterday, went to Sentosa with Jack, Wanru, Jun, Brenda, Daniel and Chong Seng. We intended to head over to the err Spring Festival Flowers Display. So when we reached Vivocity, we decided to take the new monorail over. Since its faster, and valid for a whole day. The day is pretty hot and dry. The flowers are very special, some I never seen before. Quite a lot of varieties. But I think I like the nature more than the flowers =\ Here are some photos I took (without editing) no pun intended ...

I think its wheat =\

corn field :)

some flowers

more random flowers

a big yellow smiley flower :)

ok.. the position we're standing, the SUN is blinding, tsk don't know who choose this spot one =_=

I seriously haven't figure is it a SHE or HE =X

I don't really like this pic =\\ But ohh well for the sake of others !@#$%

So after this, we intended to head over the Merlion, but have no idea how to get up there >.< Thus, we stroll around, and in the end Jack suggested we play the 'Luge'. We intended to, but it's too pricey - so time for 'PLAN B..!' =D

After leaving Sentosa, we had dinner at Vivo's Carl's Jr. Then we hang around outside, watching kids play and run around. Watching this couple cuddling, the guy trying to be funny, and he thought we laughing at them =_= Who would want to be nosey about a secondary school kids love life I wonder, sheesh!

Today woke up late, intended to head out with Yanny, but ohh well we postphone it cause we are both tired. Hmm, shall stop here.. will update more pictures on the next post. Take care ~

---------------------------------------------

I hear the ticking of the clock
I’m lying here the room’s pitch dark
I wonder where you are tonight
No answer on the telephone
And the night goes by so very slow
Oh I hope that it won’t end though
Alone

Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone

You don’t know how long I have wanted
To touch your lips and hold you tight
You don’t know how long I have waited
And I was going to tell you tonight
But the secret is still my own
And my love for you is still unknown
Alone

Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone
Alone, alone.

Hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day. Shall stop here :)

Oh - thinking about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free

Now nothing can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me coming back for more

Chorus:
Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

Oh - once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're feeling down

Yeah nothing could change what you mean to me
Oh there's lots that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way

*Chorus*

I've been waiting for so long
For something to arrive
For love to come along

Now our dreams are coming true
Through the good times and the bad
I'll be standing there by you

*Chorus*

oh no..oh no..we're in heaven..

Watched Ah Long Pte Ltd, can't manage to find any pictures of it. So the reason of no poster =\\ Basically the whole story is pretty simplified. The acting was okay, the storyline totally sarks, the editing was bad, real bad. The whole production seem really cheap and budget. Umm but however, the good humor and funny moments sort of consolidate for this movie weakness. Every movie has pros and cons, overall it was ok I guess, good for groups and family.

Today did nothing other than write, write and write. Sheesh I realised my handwriting really bad, that must be the consequences of using typing every often. My handwriting used to be nice and neat, now was nearly untidy as rubbish bin. Ohh well ~ What to do, let us ride with the wave of technology together =))

I had a really spicy dinner, I guess my mom is in a superb mood today. She cooked and whipped out 3 really nice dishes. SAMBAL PRAWNS, CHILLI CRABS & CURRY FISH HEAD. But the problem is 'why is it all spicy, and is seafood'. Damn! I'm trying to minimize my intake of seafood now she make me no choice, unless I go vegan xDD

There's a few movies I wanna catch, and who wanna watch.. please line up and write down your names ehh? LOL! Tomorrow is Valentine's Day, wish everyone would have an enjoyable night out with your loved ones.

And I can't wait for the friends outing to Genting =D Anybody wanna join? The more the merrier, pls notify me thanks =)) Shall stop here, ciaos ~

Monday night I feel so low
Count the hours they go so slow
I know the sound of your voice
Can save my soul
City lights, streets of gold
Look out my window to the world below
Moves so fast and it feels so cold
And I'm all alone

Don't let me die
I'm losing my mind
Baby just give me a sign

And now that you`re gone
I just wanna be with you
And I can't go on
I wanna be with you
Wanna be with you
I can't sleep and I'm up all night
Through these tears I try to smile
I know the touch of your hand
Can save my life
Don't let me down
Come to me now
I got to be with you some how

Repeat Chorus

And now that you're gone
Who am I without you now
I can't go on
I just wanna be with you

Repeat Chorus

SO did you guys had a great chinese new year? LOL umm I think mine was pretty amazing. Had my fair share of gamble, and in the end turns out no win, no lose. Had lots of steamboats, laugh a lot also. Red packets wise was okay too xD

It turns out the agent did not call us to work. Looks like no need so much people, it was a good thing also, since I'm still very tired from the sleepless nights spent during chinese new year. Today headed out to workout with Jack and Jeremiah. We had tennis then followed by gym at Jurong West Sports Complex. So now I'm practically knocked out, feeling full too and just wanna drop onto my bed and snore away :)

On the other note, Rocky died on 9th February 2008 T.T I'm very upset now, I took care of him for 6 years. And now he's gone! I guess this mark the 10th years of his life, didn't expect it to be so fast. I can almost relinquish the old times, from him as a puppy till now an old dog.. so much great times and now all of a sudden he left. AHHHH! The promised medication from the doc FAILED! damn him, sigh...

The last few pictures I took of him before he passed away, R.I.P ..!

I said don't do it babe
Said it ain't worth it babe
But you did it anyway
Four or five drinks and you were on your way

September 1st, 2003
It took the life right out of me
Hung up the phone
And raced out the door
Broken
I tried to believe that it wasn't true
But in my heart I always knew
That being the life of the party would catch up to you
Your family was waiting and crying for three damn hours

I said don't do it babe
Said it ain't worth it babe
But you did it anyway
Four or five drinks and you were on your way
Everythings cool on the straight away
But you took that turn doing eighty-five in a thirty-five
Why babe?

Every time I'm home I pass that road
Driving alone and the street feels cold
Seeing your face yeah it's haunting me
My mind goes crazy tryin' to figure out
Just where you'd be four years from now
And what you were thinking when the lights came down
Doctors were trying to save you for three damn hours

I said don't do it babe
Said it ain't worth it babe
But you did it anyway
Four or five drinks and you were on your way
Everythings cool on the straight away
But you took that turn doing eighty-five in a thirty-five
Why babe?

Who ever said that life was fair
When you live without a care
When you're invincible
When you're invincible
When you're invincible
Who thinks about leaving when you're livin'

I said don't do it babe
Said it ain't worth it babe
But you did it anyway
Four or five drinks and you were on your way
Everythings cool on the straight away
But you took that turn doing eighty-five in a thirty-five

I said don't do it babe
Said it ain't worth it babe
But you did it anyway
Four or five drinks and you were on your way...

Today had my first day of work at DHL warehouse, the 3rd party of distribution to Watson's. The work is basically called 'picking', where you have a trolly, then you load the stock up, and push around the WHOLE warehouse to put according to the box. It was easy job, but then hours of walking and bending down slowly takes its toll -.- In the end back pain, but super sian lah, just too dry and boring. And sweat a lot, so when I was bathing just now, I found out rashes appear on my chest and back, but weird not itchy at all.. oh well strive for MONEY! :) The most important factor for now. However, this just plainly adds on to another bad working experience.

Lemme recount, umm... There's one incident when I'm still working as a banquet waiter in Oriental Singapore. So I was stationed out at esplanade, cause there's this function going on, jazz musical if not wrong. ANYWAY, I was doing cocktails, then I was walking around giving out drinks and collecting glasses. Then in front of me there's this Queer, not sure whether is it Gay but definitely 100% QUEER! So I said 'excuse me' then he don't want to move, in addition, he shifted backwards and knock onto me. !@#$

Common sense that my tray flew, and a wine glass topple forward and SPLASH onto his white tight fitting jeans that show off his 'package' so well. So he threw a big bimbotic-sissy tantrum! Then I went to the back area, a while later my event manager came in and ask me what happened. So I told him in a matter-of-fact tone, then after hearing me out, he went like "Ok, good. I si bei buay ta han that cao si si liao. Keep whine and nag wah piang cannot lah" xD This news spread throughout the whole crew, and next day everyone knew. Ohh well, I guess it's a blessing in disguise then :)

Btw.. HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR to all wahahaha shall stop here. Ciao!

He called her on the road
From a lonely cold hotel room
Just to hear her say I love you one more time
And when he heard the sound
Of the kids laughing in the background
He had to wipe away a tear from his eye
A little voice came on the phone
And said "Daddy when you coming home"
He said the first thing that came to his mind

I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
I'm your imaginary friend
And I know I'm in your prayers
Oh I'm already there

She got back on the phone
Said I really miss you darling
Don't worry about the kids they'll be alright
Wish I was in your arms
Lying right there beside you
But I know that I'll be in your dreams tonight
And I'll gently kiss your lips
Touch you with my fingertips
So turn out the light and close your eyes

I'm already there
Don't make a sound
I'm the beat in your heart
I'm the moonlight shining down
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there until the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there

We may be a thousand miles apart
But I'll be with you wherever you are

I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there until the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there
Oh I'm already
There

*wipe off dusts*

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways , but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often. We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space.

We've done larger things, but not better things. We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill.

It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.
Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.

Remember, to say, 'I love you' to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again. Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

She wakes up with the sun
She throws on her clothes
Hoping her car will start
The second time around
The day has begun
The line's out the door
Serving up fraps
Until she can't take anymore
I see it in her broken smile
Oh why

[Chorus:]
Wish I could tell her
You're one in a million
You're going the distance, babe
You're gonna work it out someday
I wish I could tell her
You're one in a million
But you never even look my way

No she never looks my way
She never, never, ever looks my way
She ties up her hair
Her makeup is smeared
Wiping the tears that she wants no one to see
She screams on the pain
I hear every word
Why don't you know how beautiful you are
Just see it in my broken smile

[Repeat Chorus:]

If I could be the light
To guide you through the darkness baby
If I could be the one
To change the ending to your story
I'd be one in a million
I'd be one in a million
Someday I will tell her
You're gonna work it out someday

[Repeat Chorus]

PS. I get more things up soon :)

Alright! *jumping around* Finally, I'm officially off on my Spring vacations XD Lemme recall what happened in the past few days. On Wednesday, me and Jack went to AMK Hub to meet up with the rest of the gangs - Brenda, Jun and their school clique. Why AMK Hub, cause is simple, Brenda has been pressing me to go the arcade there to play the new 'bishi bashi' game together. So finally we got the chance, and we completed it, AND we took a photo as champions under the rankings LOL! But it was fun :) Ohh yeah and we watched 'Sweeny Todd' too.

I'm wondering why johnny depp's character always don't look like him

Basically this movie is about a barber, who have been framed by this judge, and stole his wife and daughter. So after 15 years, he came back for revenge. He teamed up with Mrs Lovett, which is the baker, located below his salon. In the end, an unexpected twist, shall not say much :) Anyway I feel the story not too bad, umm the musical sounded a bit too soap opera kind, as in broadway production. However, the acting and the camera work is brilliant. It just the "musical" I don't really feel it though. It's like instead of speaking, they sing out the script hehs. I guess its a different type of musical from Hairspray or HSM series then, which is singing an actual song.

So when we came out from the cinemas, the looks on their face was priceless LOL! No one knew it was a musical, and yet they watched it. So I think I'm the only one who enjoyed it, and Jack's expression was like =_= WAHAHA!

Today had my Java theory exam, I basically did everything I could, a few errors and mistakes here and there. But I'm pretty confident to pass this module smoothly. Unless my project screwed up. ~~When~~ Went to find more jobs today but no avail, my mom asking my dad so maybe there's still a small hope to get a secured job xD Shall stop here

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with every day
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
That's why I need you to hear

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

and the reason is you
and the reason is you
and the reason is you
and the reason is you

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you

Yesterday meet up with my usual clique from Poly, headed over to Takashimaya's Seoul Garden for lunch. So I ate a lot, and I think I friggin ate a whole week worth of EGGS! Thats how much eggs I have eaten; to be exact it should be around 4-6. It is actually a belated birthday celebration for Jess xD The rest of the days is pretty dry and aimless =X

Today headed over to JE library to meet up with Jkang aka Freddie for Java revision. I think I should be able to score at least a C to a B! Cause it suddenly seems much easier, umm I seriously wonder why.

I think I really need a job now, the stupid NUM haven't contact me yet. So I need to go for another job hunt then. CNY drawing near, feel like colouring my hair. Sheesh...

It's all good! :)

Following is an article of 'Why Men Don't Talk' :

As the editor of the biggest men's magazine in the world, I am privy to something many women rarely hear - straightforward, uninhibited guy talk.

Don't be so shocked - guys do actually talk, and not just about Tom Brady's quarterback rating. Most women think their man is the strong, silent type (or maybe the oblivious, silent type), and they wonder why he doesn't share his feelings.

But here's the truth: Men do want to open up, about their hopes, their fears, and their passions. Yet put him alone in a room with you, and he often turns into a Sphinx. Why can't he take his eyes off the TV and talk about the state of the relationship, or the finances, or, heck, the backyard landscaping? Why in the world can't he just summarize his day for 10 minutes?

In fact, one in five women say that they typically fight about a man's lack of verbal interaction, and 30 percent of men say their failure to communicate is the source of major conflict in the relationship. Why is it this way?

Here's one answer: Because even men who have feelings to share don't always feel comfortable sharing them with their partner. These are some of the reasons why some men often prefer to zip it, rather than delivering the goods:

Guys Are A Little Intimidated
No question, women are expert communicators. They throw questions like Oprah after her third cup of coffee; they're connecting on all cylinders. And like the divine Ms. W, women bring a lot of skill to their game: A special awareness of the people-scape around them, a keen set of emotions keyed to that awareness, and a rich vocabulary they use to talk about anything at anytime.

And they're always practicing their Q&A skills on their many friends, so they're in top talk mode all the time. Men know this. And they also know that more than one-third of women say that men simply can't relate and don't understand women. The result: Men are afraid of saying too much, because saying the wrong thing may get them into more trouble than Lindsay Lohan as a designated driver.

Guys Need To Decompress
Woman's view: When a man walks in the door, he ought to cough up some of the details about his day. After all, it's been 10 hours since they've communicated, not counting the two IMs, three voice mails, and one actual mid-day conversation.

Man's view: Can I please make a beeline to the bathroom? When men reach home, it's like those ultra-marathoners staggering across the finish line in Death Valley. The last thing they want to do is discuss how bright the sunlight was, and how scarce the water stops were.

Further up on his want-to-do list after arriving home: 14 percent of men want to check email, 12 percent are looking for a little private time in the bathroom, and 10 percent simply want to eat dinner. The common theme here: After they've spent a day serving the needs of others, they want to take care of themselves a little.

So when a man is hit with a demand for conversation so closely after returning from the stressful environment of work, he has only one gear left to shift into, and sometimes it's reverse. He's retreat, retreat, retreat.

Guys Are More Comfortable With Actions Than Feelings
Rather than talking about how he "feels," often a man would rather express his love by changing her oil, or bringing home a flower, or relinquishing control of the remote.

And when men do talk, they'd prefer to talk about actions rather than emotions. For instance, a lot of guys would choose to express their long-range faith in a relationship by talking about next summer's vacation plans, not by launching into a soliloquy about undying love.

Both conversations can mean the same thing (that he plans on sticking around); he just prefers to say it with plane tickets, rather than poetry. It's one of the reasons men are more comfortable talking at work (the practical universe) than they are at home (the castle that emotion built). But you can bring out his great communicator by making him feel more like he's operating in work mode, even when the topic at hand is your love life. Here's an incredible article, "The Home Office," that shows how he can use his best office skills for great success at home.

Guys Don't Want To Be Put On The Spot
When men talk less and women want more, the scenario can escalate. Like when the bad cop is pummeling the reluctant witness, more silence equals more questions. A full 65 percent of men we surveyed recently told us they don't want their partners to ask them more questions about themselves.

It's clear that some men are just plain tired of feeling like they're on the witness stand. They're not necessarily hiding anything; many guys simply prefer not to have to relate confusing feelings that they may not even understand themselves.

An age-old tactic can make things better: Back off a little, give him room to operate in a conversation, and he's more likely to open up.

Now that she’s back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey, hey, hey
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there’s time to change, hey, hey, hey, hey
Since the return from her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey, hey, hey
hey, hey, hey, hey

Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated

Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Now that she’s back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey, hey
mmmm.....
She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there’s room to grow, hey, hey, hey, hey
yea...

Now that she’s back in the atmosphere
I’m afraid that she might think of me as plain ol jane
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the milky way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you, even when I know you’re wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone
Conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had . . . and me

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the milky way

Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated

Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself

nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
nah nah nah nah nah nah nah

And did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day

nah nah nah nah nah nah
nah nah nah nah nah nah

And did you fall for a shooting star
Fall for a shooting star

nah nah nah nah nah nah
nah nah nah nah nah nah

Are you loney looking for yourself out there
