"Not in the Mood"

Almost finished watching "1 litre of tears" when my wireless adaptor want to create some suspense of some sort through malfuctioning. LOL.. i was almost 3/4 done le lor.

Well.. it was such as sad story lor.. but really liked it. Somehow, it made my heart ache a bit. Time to cherish a few.. i wouldn't want anyone out of my life anymore.

Might be going zoo this saturday.. whaha.. with the few from band. LOL.. must try to do some "healthy" activity le. No la.. actually wanted to see what the zoo is really like. Been there before, but.. i think i was too young then to appreciate. Now very much older.. haha.. perhaps will be able to learn a few more things from the visit ba.

Still a few more days to go.. saturday's band was cancelled.. might as well. I'm having ulcer also.. can't play.

And even though i'm being bored, it doesn't mean i'm doing nothing. I'm just bored with the mundane.

Read an article about online "hazards" and also what we do as an individual that can haunt us some time later.. ooo.. i guess from now on, i shall be discreet. LOL.. if not, next time die liao also don't know kena hit from where.. haha.

The other time, my mentor in PL told me he's going to close down his blog coz he ORD(ed) already.. the employer/client might chance upon his blog.. and imagine the rest ba. I'm too lazy to point out the obvious.

Ah.. nevermind. I'm saying too much.. the rest shall be in the "unpublished" section ba.

By the way, i'm quite well these days.. just being bored. Haha.. i'm just not in the mood to be in other mood. And perhaps.. found some time to push myself along the way ba.. the coming sem.. hahaha.. perhaps.. might be the best ever. (i'm just wasting too much time huh?)

Beside Me

Yesterday while watching "1 litre" at midnight, i heard pakki's bell outside my room. (ya.. he wears a bell like xiao ding dang..) So i let him in lor.. and then he start to be funny. Kept chewing this and that.. haha.. until he got tired.

I think sis just got a "superglue" dog le.. Pakki kept following me! LOL..i go pee he also wanna go.. and worst of all, he knows how to open the door to the toilet. LOL. (the lock is sometimes faulty) LOL.. so like that lor..

Pakki just like to be beside.. haha.. what more can i ask for? So i let him slept beside my bed last night lor.. haha.. and around 3 am, the hamsters woke him while trying to dismantle the running wheel.. lol.. and so i woke up too. Then Pakki pooed at 3 am... lol.. what a time.

Anyway, cleared the poo and i went back to sleep.. pakki slept in my room again.. hahah.. omg.. got 1 superglue le. LOL.. but he woke me up again at 5am.. and start to be funny again.. (chew cardboard and all that..).. luckily mom woke up and i think he prefers my mom.. haha..

Luckily for me.. if not, i think i'll need to wake up at 5 le.

Bored Till I

Been almost bored to death these few days. Of coz, i'm staying much at home trying to recuperate.. only today that i'm starting to feel so much better. The reflux was almost gone.. almost. Hahaha.. but already felt so much better, with my appetite returning. LOL.. i can be without most things.. but good food is definately not one. LOL.. of coz.. i am very very much looking forward to the bbq coming next week. Wahaha..

These few days had not been eating well, but i gained weight. Wahahahaa... already 12 kgs heavier than that since the last gastric flu 2 years ago. LOL.. at this rate, i can hit my target in another 2 years or so. Too bad i'm a very picky eater.. haha.. if not, i think i'll ballooned lo.

So bored that i took up jap drama watching.. whaha.. yy introduced the "liar game" to us. It was very nice indeed! I like the plot lor.. like it's always so smart. Well.. perhaps can ignore the idea that being honest is bad.. lol.. other than that.. it showed a lot of probabilities and a lot of stategic thinking. Very nice indeed.

And bored till i watched the repeat of "a litre of tears" on scv.. it was supposed to be from a real life story. Ya.. seeing the pic of the little girl at the end of the 1st episode kind of made me realise that i was watching the story of a real person.. not drama. Oh.. perhaps i need to prepare a 1.5 litre bottle to collect tears.. whahaha.. well.. maybe not.. i don't have much tears left.

Super bored that i went online to search for the battles of the spartans.. whaha.. since i've watched "300".. whoa.. there is too much to read.. and a lot of things are linked.. so 1 thing leads to another.. so read for almost 2 hours.. lol.

I'm bored.. and so, a boring entry. LOL.

Meeting with YJC-ians

Yesterday, went to meet up with my JC bandmates.

LOL.. it was like.. erm.. years since we last met.. haha.. it was really fun too hear from each of them.. well, at least the delightful happenings.

Went newyork newyork for lunch.. but wasn't really that satisfied.. whahaa... coz the staff were quite slow.. plus i have gastric problems.. haha.. so nowadays didn't have the appetite. Might be going to see gp again soon.. haha.. i want to enjoy bbq food de leh.. Nevertheless, did learn something "new".. lol.. then they told me how to calculate the additional 17% on top of our orders.. haha.. i always thought it was 117% we are paying.. but no.. they said need to multiply by .1 then by .07.. whahaha... now then i know.


Very nicely taken.. lol.. i like the background.

Then after lunch, chill there for a while before deciding on going to k box.. lol.. like years never go k box le lor.. i've already took out the card from my wallet le. LOL.. i think maybe perhaps that i realised that singing wasn't suitable.. haha.. of coz, sing for fun maybe.. but seriously not for anything else. And since it was taken away, i didn't really sing that much.. and my range fell too.. whahaha.. so was "cheating" all my way through (by lowering the key by 1 tone or more.. haha..). But ernest sang very well~! And sounds very nice too. Then someone select the song "san hu hai".. then don't know why i end up singing the lara part.. whahaha.. but it was nice.. just that range too high.

By the time we were done, it was already 9pm.. chose to ate at food republic.. but sadly.. it was another disappointment.. was it my expectations that were too high, or that i didn't have the appetite or were they really nto that good? I don't know.. but certaintly not worth the price.

Back home, saw pakki with a bell on his neck.. omg.. now he really looks like a cat.. hahaha.. of coz, i don't thnk he like the sound of it either.. but for his 'safety' in the dark, it's already a better alternative for a bell that lits up.. whaha.. poor pakki. Anyway, he slept in my room last night.. lol.. too tired to chase him out le.. ahha.. i was using my comp and he just came and lie down in my room.. lol.. so superglue de. Didn't have the heart to wake him up and ask him to go out lor.. aww.. And that day, while the rest of us were asleep at 4am.. this dog came and knock on my parent's room.. with his toy.. whahahaa.. he knows how to ask people to accompany him to play huh.. but at 4am? LOL.. he does have some very weird pattern.

Been kind of tired after a week of visiting the past.. i think, there's nothing that could be changed.. of coz, nothing from the past, but a lot more to expect from the future... it will definately change the way i see things.. now matter what.. and i don't think it can be a bad thing.. lol.. i won't "walk backwards" from where i left.. lol.. the only thing going backward is my cash.. whahahaa

Visiting GP

Saw another GP today.. coz my GP went for lunch. Zzz.. and the one next door charged me so high lor.. already broked le.

Nowadays, it cost almost $30 to see a doctor.. whahaa.. so expensive.. but so long i can recover, i don't think i will mind.

Just as i've expected..

Was off to PS this noon.. i think haven't been there for quite some time le.. haha.. ya.. and it changed a lot.

Thursday, July 19, 2007

Whatever

Very tired these few days.. i also don't know why.

Feeling kind of unwell coz my throat kept having that kind of burning sensation.. kept feeling wanting to puke and its been around for almost 2 weeks le. Must really go find my GP le.. sian.. cost money again.

Today was out meeting my secondary school friends for lunch.. then i was off to bugis to buy some thing.. lol.. saw my primary school friend at bugis street.. lol.. so qiao right? Hahaha.. i think sg is too small le lo.

Anyway, didn't get what i intend to get, and got things that i didn't plan to buy.. lol.. what the.. haha..

Pakki was granted his full freedom le.. hahaha.. i think he must be very happy to roam around wherever he like, and eat whatever he wants from the floor.. zzz... but now, if the villagers return home, he won't rush out the gates.. whahaha.. coz got train de. Anyway, went to PLC to shop for pakki.. found a replacement pee pent for him at $47.25.. and it's made of plastic de. Wow.. nowadays the dogs so lucky de. The black carpet will be out every night.. and its quite fun to see him sleep inside his own bed.. hahah.. he knows it, just that sometimes its just too warm le. LOL.. so in case we stepped on him, i suggest to hang a lightbulb on his collar.. whahaa.. then my mom says, "then he looks like fireflies le". LOL...

Ya.. so, another thing settled. Next up, chalet.. lol.. i think must all bring individual plastic bags le.. sigh. Am i supposed to bring trash bag? I think my pattern was being discovered.. argh.. but i'm looking forward for the bbq leh.. hahaa.. see what my gp says tomorrow.

Was wondering.. huh.. sigh. I mean, it was always the case huh.. haiz.. will i ever learn?

Confidential

Should be the "finale" le.. haha.. think my pocket got hole becoz of the GST.. i don't blame GST on its on.. coz VAT are somewhat higher.. with a 2% hike.. i can take it.. but...................... evil businessman tried to mix the water touch the fish. Things are rather blown out of proportion.

2% can magnified to 1/6 huh? What kind of idiotic logic is this? I don't see the income be magnified. I just don't like the concept of econs.. no wonder i didn't include them in my modules. LOL.. i felt that.. it was just a tool for those who are able.. of coz, not to say so much as it can be quite sensitive. I don't want my blog to be closed down.. haha.

Anyway, i think we can't do much also.. neither can CASE.. its up to consumers.. but, we don't really have much choice. Like the steamboat which increased 80 cents out of $12.. 2%? My foot. Market forces can't do much too.. if not, these people won't have the cheek to increase so much at 1 go.

Suan le.. i complain also no point.. coz already paid for everything.. sad. Oh yah.. did i mention that the takopachi increased 20 cents already? Haha.. this is the trend.

There are some things that got me quite used to. Like my friend said, maybe close 1 eye.. i think i need to close both eyes at times.. haha.. but i am ok.. i knew, there was no where else except forward.. just it took me quite some time to understand. What to do? LOL.. guys mature like treasury bills as seen in one email.. whaha.. it just take them so long.

Oh ya.. today heard something super funny.. haha.. about thunderbirds and transformers' bumble bee.. lol! Both are cartoons of my time... and it was referred to some other things.. lol.. hopefully, i won't tio the thunderbird.. (then i am the bee).. lol.. of coz.. i might have given up on being one myself.. whahaha..

Today saw someone on the swing.. zz.. felt so paiseh lor.

And i got ps by the one kuula again.. as expected. Hahaha.. nothing new, so nothing much to feel.

That day, my cousin said something that made me quite impressed. LOL.. i think at our age.. being older doesn't mean much anymore.. haha.. and when he said that it was such.. i totally realised. And perhaps, it happens to all.. just that it matters to me most when i'm the one at the receiving end.

Past 2 Days

Kind of being speechless after all that had happened.

Was given a kind of choking feeling last monday morning.. i also didn't see it coming. I wanted to think that, nothing had changed so far, and all was well.. Perhaps, i was wrong.

Can't find the exact words to describe the kind of "emo" that went through.. i really don't know why it was such. Other than that, things were rather clear.

Of coz, it was another piece of 'history' that affected people around.. even till now.. and, it couldn't be contracted out.

Maybe was feeling a bit miserable over what had happened.. but nothing much to be done for they are of past.. just hoped that the whole cloud (of whatever) would disperse. Knowing that was, indirectly caused by me (or whatever).. i have somehow, felt guilty. Yet in such, there is no one particular blame to be pushed.. there are just too many of variables that might just cause things to not work well.

I don't think anyone understands what i'm trying to say here.. coz i also don't know how i shall blog. Maybe just keep it somewhere close ba.

Personally, i have said what i wanted to.. i don't think there is any need for any other one else to know.. i shall give all my blessings to.

Was actually 'stunned' for 2 days.. coz been wanting to blog, yet didn't know how.. but i was glad perhaps some "sense" was being knocked into me.. haha.. though the process of being knocked isn't what one might enjoy.. haha.. nevertheless.. was doing what i always said i wanted to.. yalor.. just "what is stopping me"? Sure ain't easy to keep pushing.. i shall. There are many reason.. and definately it was becoz of.

LOL.. i really think if i had forgotten all about what happened.. when (and if) i revist this entry.. i won't know what the heck i'm blogging about lor.. lol..

Anyway, just to keep things going..

Yesterday, my cousin came over to my place.. lol.. it was quite rare. Ya.. intending to "transfer" my bass guitar over to him at a premium price.. lol.. if not, i'll auction it off le. Haven't been playing the bass for quite some time.. think a year plus le.. so might as well clear the space. Thankfully my cousin was keen in that instrumnent.. if not, it would be a waste to sell off cheaply to the masses.

Went grandma's place in the evening.. lol.. so happy that aunt kam (my cousin's mom) bought some sushi for me.. wahaha.. i was already craving for jap food in the afternoon lor.. and then just like that, it appeared.. whahaa.. must be my good fortune huh?

Pakki was granted his access to most part of the village, including my room.. sigh. But he wasn't given the green light to be outside at night.. coz he too dark to see in the night le.. haha.. scared he camo as a black carpet then we might accidently stepped on him in the dark lor.. haha.. but i'm working to grant him his 'right'. Whahah..

I think my mom loves him very much lor.. this morning, she went to "joy donkey" (it was supposed to be joy doggy.. coz my mom always pronouce things rather interestingly).. to look for a long term solution to pakki's peeing place. Was given a choice of a stainless steel grid that cost $160!!!! Wow.. nowadays the dog huh.. haha.. so xin fu. But no la.. a bit too steep le. So maybe go find some alternative lor.. like the bbq grill or such.. whahaha..

And this morning, pakki learnt how to play dead.. zzz. This was taught by dad. LOL.. Nothing much to teach him le.. haha.. already 7 months old.. i can't wait to watch him grow till the age of 1.. then i shall bring him around my neighbourhood to make new friends.. (for him that is).. i don't think i want to make a lot of auntie friends.. whahaha.. just kidding.

Would You Be There?

Been so bored at home that i went to tab this song on my guitar the previous night. No band practice and wasn't in the mood to maple.. lol..

Still, couldn't figure out 2 of the chords.. wahahaa.. my guitar skill is so limited lor..

Anyway, the lyrics are nice.. and its from mediacorp's show.. don't know what's the name of the show in english.. haha.

Would You Be There:

"
If I were blue, would you be there for me,
And whisper in my ears that's okay,
Would you stand by me, let me hold you tight,
And say you love me one more time.

If I feel good, would you slow dance with me,
And touch my lips with tender love and care
Would you die for me, would you run with me,
And never look back

Would you be there to love, to be with me?
Would you swear that your love is always true?
Would you say that you'll always be the one,
to take my breath away?

Would you be there
For me?
"

So... would you?

But please hor.. no need to die for me.. it can be rather scary leh. LOL.. i think i prefer to love someone alive. (oh.. i'm thinking too much.. hahaa..)

Morning Gongyo

This morning, i went for my morning gongyo.. haha.. or rather, the intended morning gongyo.. but by the time i reached, it was already late... very late lor.. ended up doing only dmk. LOL.. sad.

Actually, i should have reached rather early de.. but haven't been to TBSC for so many years le.. i think maybe 4-5 years ago.. hahaha.. and i wrongly thought that 855 got reach. Then i alight earlier thinking that i have reached and chose not to listen to my mom's "online" street directory.. (i called back to ask her to look up for the place for me..).. haha.. i can be so stubborn at times.

In the end, i have to bear the consequence lor. Walked around 30 minutes.. waaah.. reached TBSC at 8.30 am.. lol.. think my legs are breaking le.

Don't know where pain is coming from.. and i mean physical one.. sianz leh.. i don't want a relaspe.. but had been facing some health problems.. perhaps of the irregular eating and sleeping times. Of coz, i do cherish my health more.. (ignore that i gluped shooters like it's free.. well almost at $3.50 each.. wahaha..).. just kidding.. but really do see a decline in my health. Was have some digestive problems again.. sigh.. and plus the old arthritic is coming again.. wahhh.. sian.

I think i'm going to turn in soon.. depends.. lol.. i woke up so early this morning lor.. haha.. 6.30am leh.. lol.. and now it's only 9pm.. but better to tune my health back.. if not chwee..

My DIY Again

LOL.. 3rd entry coz didn't want to lump all in one entry.. plus can increase the number of posts also.. hahaa..

Today on my way home, bought a soldering iron (and solder) from the local hardware stall to fix my wireless usb adapter. Whahaha..

The adapter was damaged by me the other time while i was trying to make a connection, i bent it until the usb part broke.. hahaha.. and then i took the casing out. Found that the electronics wasn't spoilt.. coz when i bent the usb adapter to almost 15 degrees where the connection met, the LED lit up! Hhaaha.. so to fix it permenantly, decided to solder it.


The wireless adapter in working condition w/o its casing

But darn.. D & T didn't teach me! (my year that time, we were only doing D & T for lower secondary) So i was very clumsy in soldering.. and in the process got a minor shock for holding the circuit board directly.. lol.. it was.. so difficult.. the solder just evaporated before i can bind the 2 sides.. whahaa.. think i must practice more le..


A rather bad job done.. whahah.. with some burnt marks on the circuit board lor.. lol

Anyway, couldn't think of anything else to solder.. whaha.. and the fumes for the lead solder is toxic..

Well, got it up and running again.. after all, it beats having to spend some money for a replacement adapter.. (my spare was down too).. and i got to learn something in the process.. plus, i got a soldering iron for future uses.. whahaa.. nice.

I've Discovered.

These few days, while msn-ing, i discovered the reason why i couldn't do things well. I've been adopting a fence-sitting policy as always, and hence, i'd try to balance the 2 different spectrum. The end result, i was neither here nor there.. and i've been contradicting myself too much.. no wonder.. it never seems to work.

Knowing doesn't mean anything.. and i guess nothing much will change.

Anyway, was back from OO again.. haha.. long time didn't club and sadly, it still doesn't conclude the crubbing spree. It's been the 4th since the last exam a month ago.. and perhaps, there will be more the coming week.

I was given a choice: to crub or to attend a concert.. but i chose to crub.. like what i was told, perhaps i truly belonged to the "orh um" (dark)side. I wasn't that in the past.. but it no longer matters.

Crubbing this time round was rather fierce.. don't know what happened.. all too 'sad' le? Hahahaha.. of coz, we all have our own problems that even sharing can't help much.

Been bothered quite a lot by certain things.. and i think the only way of solving is ignoring. Perhaps it will not solve permanantly.. and it might never will.. but this is the best solution so far.

I'll blog ambiguously, for i'm just like that.. saying will relieve my stress, yet saying too much will make me vulnerable.. so i chose somewhere in between. As i've said.. perhaps somewhere down the road.. i don't even remember what i'm blogging about.. whahaa...

Rather tired from all the liquor.. lol.. i've lost count of how much i had spent.. perhaps in the 80s ba.. again. Then the kuula jioed for mambo the coming wednesday .. whahaha.. what? I print money 1 is it? But i guess, it only knock that once.. money after all, should not be the master of our life. I wondered, why, people seek the abyss of desire.. one which couldn't be fulfilled. Don't they get it? it will NEVER be enough.. no matter how much.

Yet with regards to cash, i've been growing sour grapes in my farm recently.. haha.. all because of the bullish trend of the economy. I've wondered.. how come money can alter the ego of people so drastically.. it seems to piss me quite a bit. LOL.. after all, i'm just a man.. i will feel.

Surprised was that the village chief have offered me a "loan".. but i was wondering... do i really need to prove something? I guess i rather not.. afterall, the whole life game was about me and me winning myself.. who cares about the others? I mean, so long they don't come and hao lian la.. it can be quite irritating at times.

I think, i'm quite comfotable the way i am now, less a few things and a few more.. The list never ends, and hence so are my desires.

Of coz, there are just too much to be done.. for there is only one chance at times. Read from the ST of the recent accident that happened.. it is really.. unpredictable. So.. why not? For chances are few.

I've been BUI (blogging under influence).. but i'm rather awake.. just waiting for my hair to dry.. haha.. i'm very awake lor, and i've just finished my instant noodles.. the 3rd in this week.. wah lao eh.. quite sian liao leh... haha..

SSA Youth Festival

Been rather busy these few days because i need to type the stock list for the chocolate factory. Overall, the chocolates are getting cheaper, with direct imports from hk.. lol.. i think i've learnt a few.. a few more, and i shall go get rid of the bugs around.

First thing first.. the pics of SSA's 40th anniversary at singapore indoor stadium =D


The Combined Orchestra.. the ang mor orchestra and the chinese orchestra.. whahah.. nice.


Me and my f.horn buddy.. erm.. i think there too many camera le... haha.. dunno..


My performer Tag.. lol.. my 2nd one so far.. haha.. but i think 2001's nicer.


I guess they are bored waiting lor.. so am i.. haha


My beloved horn.. my love.. my cash.


Jiu Jian was there too... wahhaa... too bad he moves around too quickly, and my camera is lousy.. and i got a seat in the 2nd row with no clear view.. so my pics are blur..


One of the items in this year's performance.. i think they are great!


The finale..

Something to Update

Changed my msn account today le.. finally lor.. can get rid of an email that i'm not using anymore.

Updating was easy.. if anyone were to update 1 by 1.. i really don't know what to say.. hah.. there is a function to save and import.

Anyway, it's fun to know that half of the list of contacts are msn active. LOL.. At least my msn is half-full.

Been taught on how to earn money online.. and i'm still learning from my mentor in PL.. haha.. but i'm too lazy to create this and that.. maybe soon, i'll have a few sub blogs.. those bent on earning cash from ads.. lol.. but not this ba.

Few days back, heard that one of my friend is not feeling well.. we haven't been in contact for a few years, and even though the msn is always there, the hp no. is always there, but just that we never kept in touch. And suddenly, i got some kind of a shock.. and it makes me quite uncomfortable.. i mean.. the feeling is not good knowing that one of your friend is having problems.

Problems that can be solved using cash is never a problem.. unless you have no cash la.. but other than that.. i really don't know where to turn to.. perhaps faith can provide me an answer?

It won't be convenient to say too much, just that i felt, i was blessed with one friend that really touches my heart.... and i would, if i could.

All for "Allspark"

If Megatron knew he would die in the search for the allspark, would he have done so? Too bad he was thrown into the sea le.. if not i'd like to ask him.

But he wouldn't have know.. nobody would.. not even allspark itself.

The performance for 070707 ended.. LOL.. following the previous night's sound check, i think all of us really have gone crazy. Imagine had to be seated from 11am till 11pm.. whahaha.. (of coz there are lunch and dinner breaks..) but just hearing the messages alone is enough.

I'm too tired to blog the details or to post photos.. haha.. but i broke my 2.0 pix camera today.. sob.. and of coz, saw a few more familiar faces around, suddenly as if like a thumbdrive, i went back to memory lane.

I guess, it was more of paiseh than anything else.. lol.. but i was glad.

I always thought, people and environment might have changed a lot, and i couldn't cope with their changes.. but on another perspective.. maybe there could be another reason.. i was the one who is changing. Growing itself is a change... and i got to know more, got to see more.. and then realised a lot that was there all a long.. just that i was too young to notice.. then i kept asking why.. why there was so much problems compared to the past. Ya.. it will get more complicated.. as i get more sophisticated.

I really am very tired today.. lol.. still got pictures of today's performance.. plus the good food i had during the trip in hk.. haha... all coming up.

Transformers - more than meets the eye

Went for movie the following day after i reached SG.

Watched Transformers with the rest of the usual few, and it was a very nice show! Super nice lor.. a must watch.

********** SPOILERS FOR THE MOVIE **********

But i do have a few critiques of my own.. hahah.. coz i watched the show, and then there were so many questions unanswered.

First of all, i can't tell the deceps from the autos.. whahahaa... they don't have much colour coding de.. and hor.. why must the bad guys be in military or law enforcement agencies? LOL.. a bit contra leh.

And also, a few of those editing errors.. whahaah.. have you even wondered where some of the transformers go during the show? LOL.. for 1, barricade (the police car) wasn't destroyed.. and nothing was said about it.

Not happy was why Jazz (the autobots) was killed just like that? Pull apart then die le.. i mean.. want to kill kill the other few lor.. especially the firefighter (Ratchet).. wahahha.. i don't like that anyway. But why jazz? He's so cool... Wahaha..




I like his Visor!

Of coz, i like bumblebee too! Hahahaa.. i like his battle mode lor.. especially when he puts his head gear.. really looked like a bee.


Bumblebee!

Nice show with nice robots..

HK Trip: Day 4 - 02Jul07

Woked up and was super high in morale. LOL.. not because of the black label.. but was because it was a day to go back to sg! LOL.. i missed sg so much leh. (by now, the 7% GST had already been implemented.. aww...)

Went to Kowloon Bay to do shopping again.. wahhaa.. breakfast there was nice and classy. Oh.. and slightly expensive too. LOL.. what to do? Win money must reward a bit ma.. lol.


Breakfast at "Jasmine".. so many people.. lol.. must be good wor ^^

Then i didn't buy much clothes.. lol.. if it was DS or PSP games.. it might be a different story.. but too bad.

In the end, i had only used half of the funds i brought over to hk lor.. zz.. bring so much don't know for what.. haha.. but i think it is because we didn't go clubbing that's why left a bit more lor.

On the way back, switched on my hp.. finally got reception le lor.. and then i saw so many messages. LOL.. but sadly, it was time to go back to my hotel to get ready for the return trip at 5 pm.


HK airport~ Very new and very nice wor!

The flight home was very sian. I think sometimes, even people of the same country are very inconsiderate. I was watching the show "300" in the small LCD screen at the headrest of the of seat in front when suddenly the idiot (someone who carries the same passport as me sadly) pushed his seat all the way back.. tmd la... nnb.. then i see what? Want me to get myopia ar? Super inconsiderate lor. And the worst part was, his dad was seated beside me.. no wonder la.. had this kind of dad then got this kind of son. Nb.. want to have room go buy business class tickets la.. NB. Super pissed la.. coz the family keep doing all kinds of request to the air stewards (that side all guys leh.. so sian.. wahhahaa..).. and they've got an alcoholic parents.. i never see people take plane to whack red wine de lor.. why? Budget for money ar? Might as well take out plastic bag to tah bao la. Can't stand people like them.. then their children kept asking for extra breads, drinks and such.. i know leh.. pay money liao must make full use.. but IMOO, i think this is call gian peng. Why can't they carry themselves in a modest way? But on the other hand, they won't get eaten ba.. but maybe this is where the society is heading.. coz i see people around me starting to behave in the manner.. super irritating leh.


My line of sight.. super near huh?

Something else happened on the flight.. and my impression with the carrier changed drastically. I almost hoped i was on another carrier. But i think i rather not pursue the matter.. coz it was not mine in the 1st place. I have nothing to begin with.

Reached early, but the DFS queue was super long.. what to do? Same passport de all behave like that leh.. hahaa.. sad.

On the whole, quite an alright trip.. lol.. i think i had shown a lot of my AP on the way and chute some pattern.. it was quite difficult to coordinate a trip as such.. but i would visit hk someday again. I just am so used to my own pace.

HK Trip: Day 3 - 01Jul07 (Gambling in Macau)

The 3rd day of my HK trip, was set to go macau to win some money.. LOL. Woke up super early to catch the 7.30am ferry. Had to reach the terminal 15 mins before, plus, drank up till the 1/4 mark of the black label.. haha.. so had a bit headache.

Luckily i brought along my passport.. i didn't know that tourist need them to travel to macau.. lol.. not like sg and sentosa wor.. hahaha. I thought they are supposed to be the same country.. lol.. a little history on macau.. macau was a Portuguese colony back in the 16th centry.. a bit like hk like that, but was returned to china in 1999.

Anyway, was abroad the ferry (the slower and maybe the cheaper service)and it started swaying the way a seacraft should.. and we got the last few seats.. empty and near the toilet... coz we checked in too late. Halfway, i thought i was in sg's singapore river.. whahaha.. started seeing so many merlions lor. LOL.. only 15 mins out, already hear so many people puking.. whaha.. just that i didn't want to take pics of them puking.. i don't want to accumulate bad karma wor. Trying hard to sleep when suddenly i heard a very irritating person singing some songs.. omg.. tmd.. this ferry is not ktv leh.. even though i think he misses his homeland, he shouldn't wake me up from my sleep.. super pissed lor. And straight away, i can tell which country he is from. Sigh.. i so glad of so many things.


Rather big and comfortable seat.. less the smell of the 'merlions' behind me.. and the KTV session..

Reached there, and got a bit of a shock. Wahahaa.. it was soooooo different from hk! In hk, other than chinese, signboards were in english too.. but in macau, i think i'm seeing portuguese. LOL.. so blur it seems.. reached the terminal le and then got stuck for a while.. haha.. i think might be the slight seasick huh?


I'm in Macau ^^

Then saw the curreny exchange sign. Didn't know that hk curreny is used in macau also.. whahaha.. searched in vain for the money changer lor.. whahaa.. but hk is slightly higher in value la.. so a bit bo hua. But changed liao change back also bo hua.. haha.. so its a lose lose situation.

Took their bus service to go sight seeing.. the buildings were all so unique lor.. a bit really like hk's version of sentosa. But too many places to go, and sadly, chose a few only becoz the rain followed us all the way from HK.. argh.. then my friend said, water is money.. (shui wei cai).. whahaa.. then i remembered, we are supposed to go casino to place some bets.


Nice buildings they've got wor..


Even their mac also the same..

Took macau's minibus to one of the casino.. but midway, the minibus had a collision with a bus in front.. and i was seated in the front seat lor.. wahaha.. thankfully, it was a minor one, and no one was hurt. I think the bus driver fell asleep and lost the grip on his brakes.

Went to casino "sands" and was really awed by the sheer power of money! Waaaah! Everything also gold colour de lor.. wahahahaa.. but the 1st thing that caught my attention was that Sic bo (骰寶)/(大小) can be played by machines.. whahahahahaa.. super cute to see the dice jumping around in a dome lor.. wahhaha.. it was my 1st time in a casino wor.. coz i was underaged the other time i went to gentings with the village chief.. lol.. so was a bit shua ku la.


Golden 'Sands'


Front view

Then saw a lot more jackpot machines too.. mostly with aunties lor.. haha.. the ah peks are all at the tables there trying luck against the bankers. So walked around with HKD 500 (SGD 100) worth of chips in my hand.. The plan was, to dump all in one game and regardless of the result, just to accept it. But don't know why, during the placing of bets, 2 chips got left in my hand.. whahaha.. i only put in HKD 300 (SGD 60).. lol.. but the 1st time, won in sic bo against the banker. Wahaha.. and then decided it was time to stop. I must practice some discipline.. similar to market discipline wor.. earn enough and it was time to stop.. and not to stop only when there was nothing more to lose.

So for the rest of the time in the casino, i was walking around only.. wahaha.. and my friend kept winnig. I think must be the rain ba.. wahhaha.. anyway, i've covered my ferry ticket.. i'm glad contented enough. Oh ya.. no pictures can be taken in the casino wor..

After my friend had won "enough" (actually it was time for us to be back to catch our ferry).. then we left. Wahah.. on the way back, took a few more pics of some of the theme parks there. (was having a feeling of dejavu now.. hmmm.. everything seems so familar)

Was on the way back.. this time round, the trip was super comfortable.. haha.. i slept well.. till we are nearing hk again. This time, there was really a fireworks display. My lousy brick sized 2.0 megapix V2 couldn't keep up with the night vision wor. so had a handful of lousy pics.


Quite difficult to capture a moving target.. especially when your don't know what is coming out from the fireworks

The 3rd night was the earliest that we called it a day.. it was super crowded at tsim sha tsui.. so we moved back to jordan. Dinner was not very spectacular. Was back at hotel and we decide to polish off the black label. LOL.. with almost 5/8 of a bottle.. we brought in down to less than 1/4 in around an hour. LOL.. tah-ed a lot.. and it was really a super tah lor. Mixer and liquor ration of 1:1.. super disgusting taste. And after 3 tah or so.. my friend seh and went to the toilet to hug the toilet bowl. LOL.. (i can see it by the reflection of the mirror).. wanted to help him up but i was super seh myself too.. haven't been sleeping well wor.. and shortly after, i fell asleep with the tv still on. (eh.. i really wanted to finish that show leh.. haha.. a lot of midnight shows on their national day leh)

HK Trip: Day 2 - 30Jun07

Woke up quite early, the sun rises early too. Windows are still full of raindrops and the ground is still wet from the rain.

Anyway, walked across the hotel for morning tim sum type breakfast. But blur like sotong, didn't quite get the customs right. So the tea was actally for washing the chopsticks.. whahaha.. and to think that i actually drank the tea there.. maybe it could be used for consumption as well.. who knows? But i felt quite uncomfortable there.. a bit like out of place like that. LOL.. maybe coz they all speaks to me in canto.. and i can't understand them at all. Of coz, they get a bit pissed by me giving them the "i don't understand what you are saying" face.. then they repeat their sentence in the common language.


"yum cha"


LOL.. breakfast was rather heavy.. just like the rain

After breakfast went over to hong kong island for the shopping spree.. LOL. They were having their sales there, similiar to our GSS. Went to sogo at causeway bay and also the times square to do some shopping.. but sian, guys didn't have much flair for shopping.. whahaha..


Streets of their "CBD"


Does the sign looked familiar?

After shopping, when to the hk convention center.. too bad 30th was the day where they had their celebrations of all sorts and i think some delegates were over at the convention center.. most roads were closed and i couldn't take a good shot of the "turtle".


Side view of the convention center

By mid afternoon, we were at one of the longest conveyor belt. It was a up hill trip. Stopped by at soho.. but it was quite "ang mor" over there.. a bit like our holland v.. haha.. and the food there are mostly western.. plus, a lot of bars also. By then, it started raining heavily.. sian to meet up with rain lor. Bought an umbrella at 7-11.. but the umbrella wasn't that good.. and it cost a lot.. haha.. so sad. Had a non-eastern meal at soho.. lol.. we chose mexican.


The Escalatorsssssssss

Searched for a place to club for the night, but the weather was rather bad for a clubbing session.. haha.. imagine.. when you exit from the club, seh from the drinks.. and in the rain, had to find a cab or transport of somesort home.. lol.. what a lousy feeling. In the end, called off the plan.. but we did some walking at Lan Kwai Fong.


LKF ^^

Went downhill before deciding on the trip to victoria peak by bus. Wow.. it was quite an uphill trip.. on a double deck bus too. The roads were narrow, and seems quite dangerous on a rainy day. Luckily it was an uphill trip, and hence the speed was slower.


Bus to the Peak.. LOL.. the person behind me asked me is the bus double decked.. LOL.. how would i know??

Reached the peak at 5pm or so.. it was the eve of the 10 year anniversary of hk returning back to china, and so we thought that there might be some sort of fireworks. At the peak, there was some sort of EA games exhibitions.. whahaha.. and the games where all FOC! Played NFS and other games before deciding to move up to the peak tower. Was approached by the people of hk tourism board, and was asked a few questions.. lol.. i think they were quite interesting people lor.. haha.. so when they asked which country that i'm from, i'm so happy to reply "singaporean".. whahahaa... don't know why.. so glad that people had laid the foundations.


The Peak Galleria


EA Games! FOC ^^

Waited till 7 or so when the buildings of central started lighting up.. whoa.. so nice, if not for the fog/cloud that covered them. Then worst still, the rain came.. argh... spoiled the whole show.. haha.. by then, it was pretty crowded at the peak tower.. LOL.. we started "camping" from 6pm till 8pm.. trying to get a good view of the fireworks display.. but it was a rain display... LOL.. don't know the people from hktb got the correct news or not.. said there was supposed to be a display. LOL.. pek chek from waiting in the rain, we decided to go back. Took the tram down... whaha.. it was rather fun wor.. the buildings were all slanted by more than 45 degrees.. too bad was on the wrong side of the tram.. didn't get a good view.


Day view from the peak.. it was quite cloudy that day..


Night view.. nice hor? Too bad got rain and it was still cloudy...

I forgot where i had my dinner.. whaha.. but it was roast goose again! Wahahahaa... this time round, i had picture evidence. Then it was back to the hotel to tah again.. lol.. drinking trip sia.


Their Wanton taste so much nicer! LOL.. must try wor.


Roast Goose! Another must try!

HK Trip: Day 1 - 29Jun07

Had to set off early in the morning on the 1st day coz our plane take off at 8 am. By right, need to reach the airport by 6 am. Made a critical mistake of not sleeping before the trip.. and it almost ruin the trip.

Reached airport at 6.30am. While checking in, one of the Cathay staff approaches us saying that he might need our help. He said that, they had overbookings on the flight and if they need our help, we might have to delay our takeoff by 2 hours on another plane.. but its on BUSINESS CLASS!!! LOL.. with no additional charges. But that is, if he needed us to move off from that flight. Also, he threw in a complimentary breakfast at Changi airport wor!.. haha.. FOC de. So while waiting for them to settle their issues, we ate the FOC breakfast.. Another mistake.


FOC Breakfast leh.. whahaha...

In the end, they settled it on their own, and we lost our chance of travelling by BC.. lol.. nevertheless, there was a USD 150 vouchers to spend on the plane for gifts.. lol.

The flight to HK wasn't that smooth.. given the FOC still fresh in my stomach and the in-flight breakfast, i almost puked my whole stomach out. LOL.. reached hk rather late because the flight was held up by heavy traffic. The plane had to circle in the sky and made my face greener than ever..


1st row LCD.. lol.. very unique

Finally arrived at HK, but still had to travel to our hotel.. The travel agency made people from different hotels to take the same bus, and ours was the 2nd last to alight.. omg... it took about another hour of travelling.


Sky train.. still got the mood to pose.. wahahaa..

Reached hotel at around 3pm plus.. LOL.. super late lor.. and straight away, was out again. Went Tsim Sha Tsui to buy our tickets for macau trip on sunday.. and then i forgot where we ate. Hahah.. but had roast goose rice for lunch/dinner.. was still seh from the trip, and so didn't take any pictures.. lol. After buying the tickets, was back at hotel for touchdown before going all the way up by MTR to Ap Liu Street (ya liao jie).. but it was too late. They all were closed by then. So walked all the way down to the night market at tong choi street.. Too bad, didn't bring along any camera.. haha.. coz thought it was supposed to be nothing much. Well.. they gave me a feeling of bugis street wor.. Haha.

By then, i saw lots and lots of street food.. and some where quite unique. Even though i still had that puking feeling (i guess the plane had caused all my breakfast to get stuck at my throat).. but still it didn't stop me from eating! Sian that i didn't bring along my camera.. haha.. but i ate the famous curry fishballs and then there was this octopus leg in a very weird sauce. Also had a piece of smelly tofu.. haha.. but i think really must go tw and try theirs ba.

Walked all the way back to our hotel.. and it was very late.. and i forgot to mention that at hk DFS, we bought 1 black label to tah for our 4 days stay.... not to mention that i didn't sleep pior to the trip.. plus the late nights and early mornings in the coming days, it sure was a very tiring trip.

Back from HK

Back from HK yesterday night.. lol.. so tiring.

Overall, it wasn't as fun as i thought. I never liked travelling, and of coz, learnt a lot more during this trip. (especially my broken "canto")

HK is a place to buy things and eat things (directly from mai dong xi, chi dong xi.. lol). Of coz, my hobbies are quite unique too.. so didn't have much to buy.. but i ate a lot! Hahaha.. nice food they had.. of coz, i think i prefer jap food and tw food. (Really a lot of stalls in SG are emulating the hk style food until they don't seems to appeal).

And so, i had spent only half of what i bought there.. lol.. (plus won a bit in macau.. whahaha..)

Decided to split the entries based on the days.. haha.. if not, it'll be too messy to read and edit le.

Leaving home at 5 am, but boarding 8 am flight. Hahaha.. go airport tour 1st.

Don't intend to sleep, and i still haven't pack for the trip. Whahaha.. i super nua.. but i got my passport extended well in advance.

Wahahaa... siao liao.. i think i looking forward to my return trip to sg then the trip to hk. Hahha... too many activities lined up le.

Will be back on the 2nd of july.. wahaa.. hopefully got loads of pics to post.

Long (Island) Night

By the time i got 'everything' done, it was already 6 am.

It was, by far, the longest crubbing i ever had. Usually, OO ended at 3am, while zouk ended at 4. But mos called it at 4.30 am, or even later.. i really ain't quite awake to know the exact time.

Today, spent quite a bit.. All in all, nearly $70+ excluding transport. All on Long island w/o 1 for 1. LOL.. think we all quite dl la.. haha.. coz stand there also nothing to do.. and the staff told me, it depends on the management to give us the 1 for 1.. no wonder la.. Of coz, thanks to dom, i saved on my return trip home. ^^

Overall, i would stick to the usual place.. one with great crowd (and music that doesn't come out so quickly), or the other with affortable alcohol. Of coz, 2-3 times should be enough. I had enough. Haha.. so next up, should be shot-ing at oo le.

Of coz, today had lots of happenings.. i also don't know what to say. Just hoped that someone who picked up a phone would reply the following morning ba.. if integrity is in place. But more often than not.. it depends on the people rather than the situation. We shall see.

Oh ya.. while my friends are learning jap and french.. lol.. i think i should go and learn Thai le.. whahahaahaa.. just kidding la.

Reached home 5 plus, and mom was outside sleeping on the sofa. Pakki as usual greeted me with his 'seh' face.. whaha.. think he still not quite awake. But when he sees my mom going to the kitchen, he started barking.. lol.. i think my mom spoilt the market le. Hahaa.. Nevertheless, he is still very cute.. haha.. he kept following me lor.. lol.. why? got instant noodles smell ar?

LOL.. ate instant noodles the instant i got home. Was very hungry and wanted to maintain my weight.. what to do? LOL.. noodles was very nice.. haha.. had so much extra ingredients.. wahhaha.. super nice la. Of coz, i did the cooking myself. Haha..

Failed a few times trying to be creative in cup noodles and in the end, LSed because i didn't cook the crab stick well enough.. Whahaa... but it was a great experience though. Had be cooking crab stick these few days because i missed the times i had bbq.. wahhaa..

And so today, bbq and chalet was mentioned. LOL.. i don't care the liquor or the mj session (though i liked them as well..).. but i actually craved for bbq food. Hahaha... i like good food leh.

Heard from one of my friend that the tw trip wasn't that fun.. hmm.. i do hoped that my hk trip wouldn't end up the same way. Hhaa... of coz, the difference is that, we are on free and easy. The 1st night, we planned to whack vsop in the hotel. Second night, go central see the various crubbing place and the 3rd day, vist maccau. Oh.. did i mention that hk is celebrating its anniversary of returning to the mainland? WOW.. whahahaa... fireworks! It should be fun i hoped. Will be leaving on friday morning at 8am and returning on monday night at around 11 pm.

Of coz, i haven't been preparing my trip.. ahhaa.. i haven't got my hk dollars yet. LOL.. anyway, it's here.. no matter what, just enjoy 1st. LOL.. after that, i'll start worring about my cash inflow. Till then.

Post Band Camp

Thought i was at band camp or what.. haha.. consecutive 4 days of band, very tiring.

Yesterday was different. It was our day of performance. A mini one, yet heard someone saying "good luck" to me.. my reaction was, giving enough practice, one wouldn't need so much as luck.. not as much as "jy" ba. LOL.. luck? Simi lai eh? Good luck that i won't fall down the stage? Or good luck that i can siam all the difficult parts without being noticed? Or what? Good luck that i win the coming toto? Somethings just ain't depenedent on luck. I know i'm being very sarcastic.. i am as you all knows.. sometimes jokingly, sometimes seriously serious. I am, of coz quite pissed at source. LOL.. it is all personal. Haha.

Was on stage to perform for Mr President Sir. Mr president was there to visit our kaikan.. and for the first time, saw him in person. Wow... security was rather tight that day, and we were not allowed to move about freely.

Finally was on stage and we played a few pieces.. i liked Morigasaki best le. After so long, got the chance to play that piece.. but it was in one lousy key signature. Hahaha.. 6 sharps leh! siao ah. After that, the finale was "we are singapore".. it was like a mini National Day Celebration in advance lor. LOL.. all sang along and my.. it was pretty dizzy seeing the flags being waved about.

By the way, it was a very small performace, and everything was done very soon.

Still, another performance to come on 070707 at singapore indoor stadium. LOL.. another small item, yet collectively a big performance. Sigh. Practice again. This time will be playing "sound of music" and "matsuri" by kitaro. LOL.. and it was a combine piece with CO.. lol.. i don't know what to say la.

Anyway, found that the band is getting weaker.. sometime like the rise and fall of a dynasty. Why not? I just don't wish to get involved in politics. Yet as somemone says, there are 101 reasons not related to music that the band is so weak. To those who wished to believe that the stituation was not that bad, i think they really haven't see the days of the glorious SWE. Sigh.. till they iron out the other issues, we shall remain this way.. and still, will get called in for performance. I will not decline.. but do really hope that the stituation will change someday soon.

A few more days, i'll be off to HK le. Suddenly also no mood to go touring lor. LOL.. not enough money already. Of coz.. i think i can get sick of crubbing pretty soon. That includes pubbing too.

And now, Tuna wants to join in the price hike also.. not to mention NETs. LOL.. what else? Next time go toilet must pay 30 cents lo.. haha.

Sunday, June 24, 2007

Back from Pubbing

Back from pubbing, and as usual, found time to blog while waiting for my hair to dry.

Went with some of the freshie, and was at cq. Went to 2 new places today - dungeon and Shin bar. LOL.. both are KTV based, but sadly, song never came. One had 12 tables, and the other had 20 over. LOL.. 20 over.. must wait for 2 hour leh.

Anyway, it was nice to see friends again, and i like pubbing sometimes as it was a budget session. LOL.. unless we decided to open bottle. But also no use.. open liao also other people drink.. lol..

Nice place though, not too boring anyways.

Band today was rather alright.. haha.. can play, and finally, the feel is back. Not the band, but my touch for my instrument. I shall, if i want to.

Tomorrow morning band pract again, at 9am. Wahahaa.. now already 3.40am le.. which means i need to wake up at 7.30am... which leaves me less than 3 hours of sleep.. zzz.

Up and Runnning

Got my CPU up and running again.

Was at Sim Lim the other day to "upgrade" my Comp.. i think my old comp really died le. Even before it stopped working, it needed the constant wind generated by my home fan. LOL.. what a waste of electricity. I guess the thermal gel had really been dried up after 5-6 years of purchase. Finally, due to overheating, it decided to retire. LOL.. and with a motherboard (mobo) of the same age.. its difficult to by a replacement processor.


The MSI Mobo.. lol.. budget de.


The "New" Processor with a very "heavy duty" fan.

In the end, i decide to overhaul the whole CPU less the Harddisk and some internal parts. Nevertheless.. it still cost quite cheap compared to the other time when i DIY my PC. Spent $282 on the Chassis, Mobo, P4 Processor and also a DDR2 Ram. LOL.. since i want to upgrade, might as well upgrade all. DDR1 is being phased out, same as AGP card.. and HDD now uses SATA instead of PATA. LOL.. so nowadays, if any parts spoilt on a old comp.. it can be quite difficult to buy replacement wor. Might as well upgrade. Chose a Micro ATX form and so downsized the chassis as well.. finally after 5 years.. can get rid of the bulky CPU. But actually, i wanted the one Apple Offered. It was like a CD Box.. lol.. the whole CPU that is just the size of a CD box. But i think for me who on my comp 24/7, it won't last long before it overheated.

This time round, the desktop was fully assembled by me.. whahaha... including the placing of the processor. I totally had no experience leh.. haha.. but it was done anyway. I'm satisfied le. Happy like anything.

Only thing is that, i feel that i was cabbaged head there again lor.. coz the chassis alone cost $65.. tmd.. tio tok le. I spent a few hours the night before to do some "research" on the mobo that i wanted.. whaha.. but never thought of the chassis. LOL.. but nevermind la.. i like the chassis anyway.


A comparison of my old chassis and the new one in black =D

Today is Saturday.. and every saturday and sunday is band day... whahahaa.. don't know should be happy or sad. Anyway, i'm off to Boonlay again lo.. zzz.

Thursday, June 21, 2007

This to That

Was back from walas.. haha.. and we've not even been there for more than an hour. LOL.

Supposed to be at Phuture de, but decide for so long till it was rather late. Given last's week crowd, i think by the time we reached, it would be full house le. LOL.. coz kids are having their holidays.. hahaha.

In the end, liquid also full, and so while crossing back, No.165 came.. so we boarded without knowing why.. haha.. sometimes, it's better to follow the flow.. make things so much simplier.

Felt so much better to deny myself. LOL.. don't know why, antenna is super long, until think so much that everyone says i think too much. LOL.. maybe in the past, i would have discovered that earth was really round than flat. LOL.. kidding. Give credit to the one who discover.

But i've learnt to accept, that of others, even till the point of blind faith. LOL.. not without my own view.. but i just don't want to tire myself anymore. LOL.. i would be happier.. who cares what that person mind is thinking. Efficient or not.. it is not my concern. Just don't put me at risk, i shall keep to the minimum.

I guess i will be a great employee.. whahaha.. no trouble de.. just do and do. Will be back from hk on the 2nd, and maybe will start look for part time. I've asked my friend at stand chart, but don't know got tio put plane or not. LOL.. everytime tio dua de. But maybe not now.. i still haven't graduate. LOL.

Been addicted on the history channel on scv.. wahahaha.. don't know why, it fascinates me leh. I had no interest in history de.. but the shows are just so nice.. better than discovery. Whahaha.. i'm thinking of getting an additional box in my room.. lol.. coz i like to nua so much that i want to lie down on my bed to watch tv. Wahahahahaaa. $12 per month wor.. but wait till i get a job.

History made us what we are today.. wahahaa.. i think, we should appreciate the past, cheris the present, and anticipate the future. I don't just mean the world history itself.. i mean our life story. LOL.. don't know why.. just felt that i want to put this in. Maybe coz my friend had told me that he met someone somewhere.. that someone that had somehow influenced me till what i am today. LOL.. but then again, why the slurpee? It wasn't to me already like that.. if i appear.. whahaha.. what i think i know what to expect. But i have no expectations.. lol.. who cares?

Today my dog learnt a new trick. Whahaha.. again, it was taught by me.. coz i'm so free at home. CPU down, and didn't know what to do.. so took him for some lessons by me lor. LOL.. today he learnt how to "roll". LOL.. another basic command that serves no purpose lor. But it was fun to see him learn. I think i better record down the commands he knows.. lol.. i think i'll forget it before he does. They are: "sit", "come", "down", "stay", "hand", "no", "roll", "in/inside", "up", "heel", "fetch", "kiss".. lol.. others that require no action are "good boy", "naughty boy" and "quiet".. and he knows his name of coz. And today, he dropped his baby tooth le.. haha.. the fang is so tiny lor. LOL..

6 months plus, no longer a baby le. And Pakki had establised himself in my village. He isn't close to the village chief, coz he seldoms feed or plays with him.. same as sis, but the dog treated her differently. LOL.. maybe coz the dog likes ladies.. ZZZ..or maybe he remembered who adopted him from the pet store. LOL.. he was the last of his family to be sold lor.. so i think he felt very close to my sis. Everytime my sis returns home, he will jump up and down and get very excited. LOL.. my mom also gets the same welcome.. hahaha.. but he is very demanding towards my mom. I think my mom spoilt him le la.. Everytime demands my mom to play with him.. hahaa.. or bark to attract her attention. And of coz, he follows me. Hahaha.. coz i think most of the time he sees me lor. And i bribe him with treats.. whahaa... corrupted dog. LOL.. nevertheless, he is still very clever.. and the whole village loves him.

CPU down leh.. wondered what to troubleshoot. The Processor already 5 years old le.. don't know which part is not working right. Maybe a combination of parts ba.. haha... don't know. Anyway, got to go.. coz my dog just LSed.. zzz...

Irritated

One whole week of slacking, it felt rather good.. till the green-eyed monster came.

All was well after the exams.. until now, i got quite irritated. Even though the weather was fine.. with showers almost everyday.. but something just keep irritating me. Argh.

Sometimes i just don't understand, and i seldom will.

It shall pass soon.

Last Saturday:
Was at band the whole late noon till night.. and as usual, i find it quite taxing to travel all the way to the west and then back again. All in all, it took me 3 hours to and fro.. not even no. 52 can help. And 3 hours gone like that.. reached there, and lots and lots and lots of late comers. What's the point man.. already pissed that my saturdays are burnt.. especially saturday night! Still.. people want to chute pattern. Oh ya.. nowadays, the kids are rather ill-mannered. I think the excellence in something had swelled their head. Yet i've heard.. we should not get ourselves be involved in politics. Got home at around 11pm.. and i was darn hungry. Was in a hurry to finish my dinner that i bit myself.. in the end, i've got another ulcer.

Last Sunday:
Again.. early in the morning at 8.30am, i was in boonlay for band pract again. Inmagine how early i've got to wake up to take the bus and all that.. And the band ended at 1pm.. was supposed to be at cousin's house for father's day buffet and so couldn't eat before setting off. Reached at 2.30pm and again.. was darn hungry.. 6 hours without food! LOL.. thankfully, the food was very nice.. took great care not to bite myself again.

Today is ba zhang day.. but i didn't have any cravings for dumplings. I like laksa better.. haha... and nasi lemak. Chicken wings.. BBQ.. wah.. i'm so hungry now.

Oh ya.. pakki is 6 months old le.. and he is irritating me with his barking. He get demanding nowadays, and sometimes will refuse to listen to commands. This is normal.. for he is now a teenager at his age. So had to wait till he grows up.

I didn't get the NDP tickets after all.. so disappointing. LOL.. i really don't have much luck de..

My CPU is down for a week.. and i really don't wish to spend much more.. i'm broked. I really am.

And this leads to.. finding a job.. sigh.. given the unknown.. i can't have much option. Maybe really got to head over to the chocolate factory le.. but now, i just wish to rest a bit more.. maybe a few more months... lol.. i'm so slack.

2 Hours Later...

After just aboout 2 hours of sleep, i woke up. LOL.. and then i remembered, i broke 2 things last night. Hahaha...

Not my heart of coz.. but 1 bottle and 1 glass. LOL.. and there is long island in that glass lor.. haha.

So yesterday at the bank, the staff asked me whether i wanted to work in their industry or not.. after thinking, i wondered, why not? LOL.. i got experience in retail, and i think banking is not much difference. But still, might be at the chocolate factory helping out.

Maybe the future isn't that hard to see after all.

As everybody says, the exchange rate is going down with the coming holidays. Yah.. and then now for hk dollars, 1 sing dollars is to 5 hk dollars only. But then, for every 100 sgd, the lost is 1 dollars.. so i couldn't care much of it. I'll bring only 500 sgd over.. haha... maybe go there eat cup noodles ba.

Don't know why.. i'm so happy these days.. perhaps its because the exams are over le.. hahahahaa... i'm so glad its all over!

Hiking

It seems, its quite difficult to cope with the economics of today. Everything also want to join in the fun of a hike. That includes chicken rice and even cable tv. It seems that its either go with it or do without.

All hike except income. I don't see the banks paying more interest, i don't that i win 4D. But i just ate a meal of chicken rice that cost around $6 each. Nowadays, everyting seems expensive.. but we just can't do without.. unless i buy a bag of rice and eat plain rice everyday. Market forces are just not working nowadays. I really wondered who stood for economics.

Was home after zouking, and still wide awake. Quite happy to see pakki greeting me so early in the morning.. ahhaa.. and i'm really glad we didn't gave him up. He really made my village quite happy.. especially my mom.. hahaa..

i think i'm quite tired after today's activity.. this morning woke up, and went to bank to open a new account.. lol.. the staff was very friendly lor.. but then when i was finished with the new account thing, my itchy mouth asked them for thier banking products.. and i was quite pissed with the way the staff was trying to coerce me into investing.. haha.. but in the end, i didn't.

Later the afternoon, i went to opened a new trading account... muahaha.. and my dad's broker served me.. too bad the broker is quite busy. Midway, saw a tv star.. wahhahaaa.. i think they are very human too... so don't expect them to do things so "holy".. by they way, they will LS too.

Zouk was damn crowded.. don't know what happened..

Oh ya... i enjoyed supper very very much.. because i was very hungry. Had 2 ulcers, one inside my cheek, and the other on my tongue. I haven't been eating well for the past few days lor.. But was glad.. haha.. i loved to eat, and i loved food that are heavily flavoured. LOL.. today, i skipped my dinner, and so mom cooked noodles for.. but i was sooo sensitive. I knew she didn't empty the soup base.. haha.. the 1st mouth.. i already knew. But i didn't want to say.. coz already i'm so fortunate that she cooked for me.. and also, after all, she did it for the sake of my health.. so i couldn't asked for more. But then.. i was so glad that we had salted veg for supper.. haha.. one of my favorites!

LOL.. so today was a long day.. and come this thursday till sunday, i got to be hardworking in practicing my horn playing.. coz i think they are playing for Mr President! LOL.. such an honour. LOL... i must put in my best... even though i didn't get the tix for NDP... whahahaaa...

Early in the Morning

Yesterday ate too many pizzas le.. haha.. coz ordered too many. In the end, i think i had around 5 slices. So early in the morning i woke up, 1st thing is to go LS. Hahaha.. i think my digestive system quite poor wor.

Nowadays, i had some problems with the electronics around me. 1st, i short circuited the oven, then it was my house phone.. then this morning, my desktop also want to join in the fun.. wa lao eh... sian liao la.. just said that it lasted for 5 years, the next thing it broke down. Should be trying a way to fix it.. i don't have money to buy a new 1 le.

Been very uneasy over certain things, i also don't know why. Perhaps it is after the exams le.. then suddenly had to do so many things.

Tonight will be down at zouk.. maybe mos.. but i think i can't take liquor le.. if not i go there LS. But still, i look forward to the mambo. LOL.

Will it Ever End?

It seems so slow at first.. then everything was over just like that.

I mean the exams.. wondered how it can bring so much agony.

But at least for now, it's over. Time to think of things to do, and to do the things i've thought i'll do. All the time in the world i have, just worried that i didn't have the money accomplish.

And money seems to be a big problem.. hmm.. i'll worried about it when the time comes.

The outcome from the papers might be mixed. Some i did well, and some i did badly. And the probability of repeat for those i did badly is quite high.. especially for CF (where i 'invested' wrongly), FI (i don't wish to say anymore) and for Marketing (i also don't want to say anymore...).. hhahaa... but for LBO, i did attempt ALL questions.. for the 1st time in my life.. and not only that, i completed ALL and while doing that, completed the whole booklet! Whahaa.. and for MSM, need i say anymore?

For all, i don't wish for a pass. I wished for a 2nd. Upper or lower, it didn't matter. Suddenly, i'm all hopeful again. Why? Because if i can secure at least 2 more lower from LBO and MSM, i'll have 3 of them in the bag le.. Plus 2 more new modules the next year, and plus if i suay suay buang any, if not all from the 3 CMI papers this year, i stand a good chance lor. Suddenly, it seems, after repeated failures, i might want to get something out of nothing.. if not, the additional estimated SGD 6k would be wasted.

But for now, i don't want to think. I've used my brain so much that i've been sleeping around 12 hours each day.. whahaha. I need a rest, and then back to pack my room. After 2 months, it's like an earthquake had hit my room.. no wait.. it did hit my room that day when my apartment shook.. whahaa.. but really quite messy.

And then it'll be off to set up a trading account.. whaha.. i chose to be with in the same with the village chief, and then just today, he said he had told his broker that i'll be going down to set up the account. Not only that.. my limit was also pre-determined. But i'll be trading independently.. but i not sure whether the chief will do any check on me.. whaha.. coz i'm new, and i think he's worried that if i'm not smart enough, we all (including my dog) will sleep in the streets.

Oh yah.. getting ready for HK trip! I'll be leaving at the end of june and will be back the following month. In actual fact, i'll be going there for 4 days only. Hahaa.. wow.. looking forward. But then, i might have some phobia of taking flights.. lol.. 2001 on my trip to the helsenki, the plane met a turbulence.. we were in a thunderstorm and that inciddent had left quite an impression. LOL.. since then, i had never flown to other places.. very weird, i also don't know why i've grown to be afraid. Perhaps i've what too much NGC's "air crash investigations".. whahaha... i think i just make myself tired the day before.. then i can sleep during the 5 hour flight.

Last Friday, was out at OO again. It's been a long long long long time since i went crubbing. It was free entry wor... whahahaa.. and very nicely, i've spent less than $40 for the first time in crubbing. LOL. Actually there are much simplier ways to get drunk and in less than $40. Use the tah method plus drink at the 7-11 outside. Whaha.. siao de. No reason want to get so drunk for what? Got xin shi? LOL.. i'm just glad everything turned out fine.

I was quite seh that day.. coz i was tired perhaps. I can't differentiate between drunk and tired. LOL.. but it was certaintly great to sleep after whacking so much.. and i still feel like sleeping now.

And so that day, it was quite empty even though it was a friday. I wondered why.. coz a lot more new places up? Whaha.. after 2 months in mugging, i'm like frog in a well.. what happened to all the rest of the people? Oh well, i saw a few smoking dinosaurs along the way... omg.. i hate that cherry of whatever shity fruity smell.. want to smoke smoke something decent la.. smoke simi fruit flavour de.. i hate it. It made me sneeze and sneeze lor.. and now only that, the smoke got onto my hair.. and it was like i had burnt my hair like that. Thankfully, there is going to be a ban on smoking in crubs the coming month.. whaha.. wondered how it will feel like to be in a smoke free disco.. smells weird huh? LOL.

Pakki is going to be 6 months old this coming 14th. Whahaa.. so fast grow up le. LOL.. and today, after so many times of bathing him, i alone can handle him. Finally... and he let me groom his coat. Finally.. but he still likes to run away with our socks and newspapers... that have got to change.. on the whole, he had learnt quite a lot.. lol.. but i've read up.. dogs will try to train their owners when they are 9-12 months old.. coz they want to be the top dog.. that alpha one. Hahaha.. i see what trick he got then.

Too long never blogged, and too much into essays writing these days, i think i can write another 1000 words also shouldn't be a problem. Whahaa... after all, its purpose was for me to keep track of things that happened around me, and to see if anything good came out from this process. For that, there must be some form of recording.. and what's better than an online journal? LOL.. lol.. i wondered if really anyone would read word for word.. i would be impressed if anyone does.

Year after year, things keep repeating, and i keep repeating them. Whahaha.. will it ever end?

The Last 2

LBO tomorrow, and after 1 full week of mugging late at night, i finally can feel the difference. The marks doesn't matter to me that much, for i only needed a pass. CF dashed the hope of any upper or lower for that matter and now i just wished to reduce the cost and time taken.

For the 1st time, i've written 4 full essays in preparation for LBO.. whahaha.. though i know that choosing that few is not optimum. But what i've studied might not come out.. and that really pisses me.. especially when i really studied.

Too much, and i can't remember. Try memorizing the names and years and the sections of LBO.

Suddenly, it all seems to be a facade.

A few more days, and i'll be the end of the semester. Time to go out to look for a job, or rather, something to keep myself occupied. And of coz, with new environment come new changes, there is no doubt. I won't be surprised anymore. Just don't expect that things will forever be the same.

Rather neglected on FI because i had no time.. with only 1.5 days left after tomorrow's paper, i just wished that i can clear that paper. Of coz, there are considerations to conserve energy.. because, the group from my OG will be down for crubbing. Well, it's been a long time...

And i'm looking forward to mj.. at my house. Hahaha.. but after almost 2 months of mugging.. my desk looks like a warzone. So perhaps not so soon. I need to pack a bit first.

And there is this hk trip.. i haven't changed the currency yet.. and the rates are climbing.. lol.. looking forward also.

There are much more things to do. I want to open a trading account for trading in stocks.. i also haven't claim my tax rebate.. Planned to earn my school fees for the coming semester coz my bank is running dry from 2 years of paying. LOL.. perhaps need to find a job soon.. coz i need to raise at least 2k plus for the "final" year.. and then also need money for my hk trip.. also a bit more for crubbing.. haha.

And Paki just got a haircut last week.. lol.. he became such a botak that i don't recognize him.

Now he knows around 10 words.. haha.. and just a few days ago, he was trained on how to fetch. LOL.. so happy to see that he understands. And since my papers are coming to an end, he will gain his freedom at the same time with me. I'll be at home most likely, and now he need not be in his cage or chained. Sis intend to get him a play pent.. it's like, upgrading his house. LOL.. that'll be until he learnt house breaking. Then at the age of 1, he'll gain full independence. LOL.. we've got it worked out.

Ok.. i've slacked enough.. time to memorize a bit more of everything else.. i don't ask for more.. but i ask for what i ought to have. It should be deserving. Updates after my last papers ba.
