Why so unfair?
The whole family met on sunday night. Uncles, Aunties, Counsins, Grandparents, the lot. 3 surnames. Lee, Cheah, Tan. Lol.
My mum was cooking. What was at first a little dinner with the grandparents turned into this party involving everyone. Of course, we expected that though.
It was great, except for one thing.
Grandma.
Maybe I should list the people.
My family.
Cheahs- Cynthia(Mother), Phillip(Father), Timothy(Cousin),Natalie(Cousin).
Lee's- Owen(Father) Serene(Mother) Marianne(cousin) Bryan(cousin) Marilyn(cousin) Jadon(cousin)
Grandparents
This uninvited guest, who incidentally was Natalie's Godmother. Her name is Jeanette
Yeah anyway, We were all sitted at the table, except for my mum, and Jeanette. My mum was busy serving everyone. So my grandma sat down, and the first thing she said was, "Eh Godma where? Godma where ah? How come you don't sit down? Sit down lah.."
Instead of calling her own daughter-in-law to sit down, she calls an outsider instead? I mean, who's the one really doing all the work? My dad was clearly pissed. Of course, nothing was said.
Then during the meal, Grandma had some food passed to her, and she kept on going "Aiyah, come, I kongsi with Ce Mm."
**Note** Kongsi means share, Ce Mm means Mother-In-Law of my daughter.
And I don't know, why did she have to share with the in law instead of my mum, who was sitting right next to her?
Why so unfair?

It's Confirmed!
The letter has arrived. Eternal Damnation is in the air. Well, not quite anyway.
The eldest brother was originally scheduled to get his butt into the army on June 23. But well, after some hard work on his part, he now goes in like August 4? That's a whole delay of 6 weeks.
When I first found out, my instinct was to go "WTF?!", but then Dad and Mum would have breathed fire on me, so yeah, instinct got pushed to the ass instead.
Then the younger brother found out. Incidentally, some friend of mine saw him and went, "That's your YOUNGEST brother???!! GIANT!!!", but that's beside the point. So he found out. And he got so mad, he stayed mad the entire day.
Of course, about the only person who's really happy is the eldest brother.

Don't Cry Out Loud
Baby cried the day the circus came to town
'cause she didn't want parades just passin' by her
So she painted on a smile and took up with some clown
While she danced without a net upon the wire
I know a lot about 'er 'cause, you see
Baby is an awful lot like me
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside, learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall, remember you almost had it all
Baby saw that when they pulled that big top down
They left behind her dreams among the litter
The different kind of love she thought she'd found
There was nothin' left but sawdust and some glitter
But baby can't be broken 'cause you see
She had the finest teacher-that was me-I told 'er
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside and learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall, remember you almost had it all
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside and learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall, remember you almost made it
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside and learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall, remember you almost had it all

Do We Have Such A Place?
America has the Kodak Theater for the American Idol Finals. I was just wondering. Where will Singapore stage it's finals?
1. Esplanade
2. A pathetic studio in Mediacorp
3. Indoor Stadium
4. National Stadium
5. Padang
6. Victoria Concert Hall
Out of the 6 possible places I can think of, 3 of them are open air. That's not a very good idea right?
I was thinking, most probably, it'd be the Esplanade. I'm not too sure about the capacity for the audience, but it seems grand enough for a National Competition finals huh?
Of course, there's always the pathetic studio.

Let's Go Flying
Come fly with me, let's fly let's fly away
If you can use some exotic booze
There's a bar in far Bombay
Come fly with me, let's fly let's fly away
Come fly with me, let's float down to Peru
In llama land, there's a one man band
And he'll toot his flute for you
Come fly with me, let's take off in the blue
Once I get you up there,
Where the air is rarefied
We'll just glide
Starry eyed
Once I get you up there
I'll be holding you so near
You may hear the angels cheer - because we're together
Weatherwise it's such a lovely day
Just say the words, and we'll beat those birds
Down to Acapulco Bay
It's perfect, for a flying honeymoon - they say
Come fly with me, let's fly let's fly away
Once I get you up there,
Where the air is rarefied
We'll just glide

Black Eyed Peas!!
Woo Hoo. I watched the Black Eyed Peas in concert last night. Man was it good.
There were 3 opening acts. 2 with weird names I don't recall, 1 called Wicked Aura. Now Wicked Aura is really good. They're this percussion band, and they really brought up a mood.
And then there was the B.E.P. "Singapore! Singapore..." The concert was peppered with that word. But they are damn good la. They really know how to work the crowd up!
Of course. Azi will probably complain about how I didn't stand up. Here's my reason: Aiyah, I can do the same thing sitting down too. Which is more or less cheering, waving hand, making lots of noise.
Ooh. Then after the concert, which really blew out my ears by the way, Nad had to splash water on me. I retaliated of course. Not very hygienically though. See, all the water I had was in my mouth. So yeah. I became resident Merlion. Oh. Yeah. Then some water from Azi's bottle went down the left side of the front of Nad's T-Shirt too.
That's when she started chanting "1/4 Fish 3/4 dUCK!!" Well, at least, not exactly like that.
Now I want to go to Linkin Park's concert. Free tix...come fly with me.

I am different.
I was looking at a Chinese family having their dinner last night. And I realised, that somehow, I am different.
It's the way they look. I looked at my family, and then back at the other family. And I realise, that my family does not look entirely Chinese.
I'm not boasting. I'm not trying to be insulting to anyone.
It's just that, when I looked over to the other family, instantly, you can tell that they are PURE chinese. It's in the eyes, the nose, the mouth. Heck. The whole face. Their entire demeanour, behaviour and looks, scream out "LOOK AT ME!! I'M PURE CHINESE!!!"
The difference is painfully obvious when I put my father and elder brother next to them. The both of them just have this look that says that they are mixed of race. Shucks, I think even my mum is slightly different. She's 1/4 Peranakan, as I found out recently.
Pushing things a bit further, I realise my grandfather doesn't look like the Chinese people his age. For one, he doesn't look as Chinese as the regular Chinese people. My grandma too, doesn't look entirely Chinese.
Too bad I didn't inherit those genes. Me and the lil bro got the more Chinese genes. I'm not being insulting, again I say. It's just kinda fun, being different. Of course, people might ostracise you, but then, nobody can really tell the difference anymore anyway.
So I'm more than half Peranakan.

There's nothing worse than that
I hate this.
I hate it when people mistake my words and actions, and there's nothing worse than that.
I am told to see things from their view.
I am told that I am stubborn.
I am told that I disobey.
But have they ever wondered what it is from my view? My Dad asked me to take something for my mum, something which my mum was already headed towards. I told him no point I go and take, Mum is already so near it.
Then I got a scolding, saying how I always am so stubborn, that I think I am so smart and better than the other members of the family.
All that just because I didn't do something pointless? I mean, was I really wrong? What part of my actions showed that I thought I was so much smarter than anyone else in the family?
It's not just that. Many times in my life now, something jokingly said by me was interpreted as something horrendously venomous.
In those instances, my friends failed to see past the words into the sarcasm. In those instances, I hurt my friends with my words.
In those instances, I was made to apologise for a wrong I did not do.
Of course, when you try to explain yourself, it only seems like you're digging your grave. I mean, when a teenager is hurt, his/her pride and ego covers everything that you might say, and you might as well explain yourself to the toilet bowl.
I was told that I broke the trust in the relationship, and that I would have to work to gain back that trust. All my friends were unhappy with me too. They sided with the "hurt" person.
Just wait a second, I didn't do ANYTHING wrong!!!!
From their point of view, I was the wrong-est thing in the world.
But did anyone ever see things from my point? Did anyone ever had enough faith in me to believe that I would never say something that would so deeply hurt a close friend?
Apparently not. They chose to see the supposed bad side of me. Everyone in that particular circle of friendship chose to believe that I would say something horrendously venomous to a close friend. Nobody believed for a second that I was joking in a sarcastic way.
Of course, this is the first time in about 3 years that I finally mention this. Perhaps time has skewed some of the details. But hey, this is from my point of view.
It seems as if Singapore doesn't know how to be sarcastic.
It seems as if at that point of time, anything that was said by the leader was the gospel truth, and the real reasons a blasphemy.
Today I received another dose of such treatment. A simple statement I made that was intended to be a joke got me a tongue lashing. A tongue lashing about sacrifice, about service for the others above desires of self.
Hey don't get me wrong, I appreciate the service for others. But what the hell? It's not as if I really meant what I said.
Apparently nobody saw the smile on my face. Apparently no one saw the joking manner with which I spoke.
Maybe this particular incident didn't even register on the mind of the tongue lasher. But it sure registered on mine.
*Note to self* Tell the world that I am about to be sarcastic if I ever want to be sarcastic.*End of Note*

Black Eyed Peas anyone?
My uncle gave me 4 free tickets for Tuesday's Black Eyed Peas performance. I'm going. Only problem is, I don't think I actually know their songs that well to properly appreciate it.
But hell. I'm going anyway. Just for the feeling of going to a concert. Hehe. Nad's going. And Azi is going.
Asked Kay. She wasn't free.
Asked Amin. He wasn't free.
Asked Meiyan. She wasn't free either.
So yeah. There's this one last ticket. If you don't hate me or the other 2 ladies that much, gee, why don't you ask me for the ticket?

I didn't get burnt
I just came back from a stay at a chalet with my family. Didn't do much there I suppose. It was the basic swimming, eating, playing PS2, sleeping late, etc.
But it was relaxing though. To stay in an aircon room all day, then disappearing downstairs for some swimming with my brother. Racing in the pool, see who swim 2 laps faster.
Yeah, it was relaxing. At least it gave me something to do. =P Not that I actually am asking for something to do. But hey.
Nope, I didn't get burnt. Sunburnt.

I'm Staying Off Ice Cream
Let's see. I spent a erm, Monday or Tuesday with Nad and Azi and Nad's Mum. Nad or Azi, TELL ME WHICH DAY WE WENT OUT!!! I think it was a tuesday. Cos it seemed pretty recent.
Right. Anyway. I think we did the predictable. Which is wait for Azi. Hehe. Just Kidding. I somehow persuaded Nad to come down to Tampines to wait for Azi. And we played at the arcade. Again.
*note to self* Find ANOTHER nice arcade to go to. *end of note to self*
Anyway, predictably, I won her. Mostly anyway. Only lost one race. Sheesh. That was a killer. 20 Laps of beginner on Daytona 1? Sheesh. It's enough to drive anyone crazy. Then we watched this guy dance at the silly Para Para machine. LOL!! He was like jerking all over the place!
Oh. I think I remember something that Nad forgot. We met her Toastmaster's President. Then that's where she received a shocker question from him. No, not to make her the next President. But rather, "Hey, that guy with you, your boyfriend is it?"
That's where I think I heard a distinct "WHAT?!?!" coming from Nad's direction. Gee, I wonder where the President got his idea from.
Then we met Azi, and yeah, she wasn't too happy. But hey? Who could be happy when you have to go to school for a myriad number of reasons, then deposit money at POSB, and then meet your friends? Yes, that definitely could cause any number of people to be unhappy, breakdown and cry.
I think I'm coming close to being shot in the head by someone. =)
And after all that hoopla, we went for dinner! Finally! Oh yeah, I forgot to mention the little detour to Haagen Daaz. Sheesh. Never go there without parents I tell you.
Anyway, there was a dinner at Swensons. At the what, crown prince hotel ah? Yeah. Lol. I got that mixed up. Said it was at Telok Blangah or something. WAhahaha. I mean, I know that there's a Swensons in Orchard. Just didn't know that it was THE crown prince one. Can't blame me right?
That's where I met Auntie. Or Nad's mum. And we spoke. But then, knowing me, I just shrink in the presence of parents. Then we ate the Earthquake for dessert. Oh man, I'm never eating that much again. Lol. We ended up mixing all the flavours together. Like Nad's mum coming up with a flavour that tasted like honey lemon chicken. HONEY LEMON CHICKEN!!! Who tastes that when they eat ice cream???
Then I met Kay at Bugis, and we talked to each other for a while, before heading home. Just before the door closed and left Aljunied, KAY HAD TO RUN TO ME, AND SHOUT "BYE!!". Obviously people were staring at me. Some were laughing as well. Then someone went "What the heLL?"
The perfect end to a wonderful day I suppose.
Oh wait. I forgot to mention this. Nad, you need Xando? Wahahahahahah.

Unforgettable
Unforgettable, that's what you are
Unforgettable, though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
Unforgettable, in every way
And forevermore, (And forevermore)
That's how you'll stay, (That's how you'll stay)
That's why darling its incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
No, never before has someone been more
Ooh Unforgettable, (Unforgettable)
In every way, (In every way)
And forevermore, (And forevermore)
That's how you'll stay, (That's how you'll stay)
That's why darling its incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
Unforgettable, that's what you are
Unforgettable, though near or far

Helpp.
The holidays are wonderful. I've been doing nothing but slack, slack and oh yeah, slack. Then I see the people around working like hell.
Kay's busy with 4 winds, Sing To Dawn etc.
Azi got Camp Sunshine, and probably a million other things that I've not heard of.
Nad, well. I don't know what the hell she's doing. But hey, she could be doing something. So yeah.
Here I am, doing nothing much. Hmm, I wonder, should I be doing something?
Kinda weird isn't it? When everyone is doing something, then you wonder if there's something you've not done. But you don't want to do anything. But then, you've been doing just that. So you've been doing something after all. Just that it's nothing. But it's still something right?
Did I just confuse the shit out of everyone? Funny. I'm pretty clear about it.

Kinda weird isn't it? When everyone is doing something, then you wonder if there's something you've not done. But you don't want to do anything. But then, you've been doing just that. So you've been doing something after all. Just that it's nothing. But it's still something right?
Did I just confuse the shit out of everyone? Funny. I'm pretty clear about it.
I love you!
I see you so often in my life. You come in and you go out as you please, pulling my heart along with you.
I realise that I can't live without you around me. Everytime you're gone, I can't wait till the next time that I get to see your face.
Ah no. I'm not in love with another girl. I'm in love with another guy. He's like, 1 year and 4 months old as of this date. Wahaha. He's ma baby cousin!
An' he is so freaking adorable.

Songfest.
I went to TPJC on saturday, to attend their version of a singing competition. It's called Songfest, and it features, bands, groups and soloists.
Now the bands were doing what they did best-- make lots of noise and hopefully pass it off as nice music.
The soloists, now there's something to talk about. There was this one girl. Anjana. Only you pronounced it An-Jer-Na. Now there's a singer who could give Kay a run for her money. She was fantastic. Only thing is I couldn't hear the words she was singing though. Kinda as though she was drawling her words. Great anyway. Of course, she won.
There were some others, but they weren't as impressive as I thought they would be. *note to self* Don't think too highly of TPJC singers. Hehe. =P *End of note*
The group was pretty good. There was this pair who sang The Prayer by Charlotte Church and Josh Groban. Now they were good. And Alman, my friend, sang Purest of Pain. Now he was good too. Too bad only one could win though. Alman won lah. But I'm happy anyway.
Hmm. Then after that, I went out with Daph, Darren, Kish, Kit and Shao. Went for dinner. Darren went off though. Had some Mother's day thingy. Then we watched Van Helsing. (sorry azi and kay and nad!!!!) The movie was pretty great. Yeah.
That's about all that happened I suppose.

This is an Update.
I realised I haven't actually done anything resembling the telling of the story of my life. Lol.
Let's see. The last thing I remember was ice skating. Yeah. I can't remember what day that was though. I went with Nad and Azi. I thought Kay and Amin could come, but then they were busy. One with her drama. And another with his dancing. Argh.
Ice Skating is not easy feat I tell you. Balancing on the ice without moving is totally all right. Then you realise you're slowly sliding around on the ice without moving a muscle. That's right, ice is slippery after all. Then you frantically grab for the side. For the unfortunately slow of hand, you get to drift all the way to the middle, and hopefully not slip down.
I learnt(painfully and slowly) to move around without looking too much like a fool. Of course, my idea of fool is not looking like a gorilla, with the hands flailing all around. I think I achieved that about 45 mins into the skating session.
Then the adventure started. Moving to the centre of the rink. Cowardly Nad obviously didn't dare to move. To the centre I mean. She was too busy hanging to the railings for dear life or something I guess.
At first, it seemed deathly cold. Of course, I started perspiring about 10 minutes into learning though. Shucks. And I thought I'd be able to remain comfortably cold throughout the whole adventure.
Things moved along smoothly, and then Nad and I tried skating while linked together. I think we were moving too fast for our own good. I made her fall. Haha.
Oh, did I mention the bloody blister that developed on my left heel!!?? Shucks. Now that hurt like hell.
Oh, and did I also mention the erm, number of times Nad fell? Like EIGHT times I think. I only fell three times.
Now that wasn't too bad was it?

Helpp.
It's been one long day. Of doing nothing that is. Went to church in the morning, and as usual, sang in the choir. Only nothing really went wrong during Mass today. Haha. Phew.
Then from there, nothing much happened anymore. I went home. And stayed home. Oh. I went to eat French Toast. At Killiney Kopitiam @ Eastpoint. Made sure Mum paid. End of highlight of day.
Rotted at home. Then I noticed that Dad never does anything by himself. Even something as simple as drying the dishes and putting them back in the cupboards, he has to get someone to put the dishes back. It's like if he doesn't call someone he's not a father. Talk about delegation of work.
Now let's see. There's basically nothing much left. Oh. Except for the teensy fact that I might be going ice skating tomorrow.
Hurrah.

Something To Talk About?
People are talkin, talking 'bout people
I hear them whisper, you won't believe it
They think we're lovers kept under covers
I just ignore it, but they keep saying
We laugh just a little too loud
We stand just a little too close
We stare just a little too long
Maybe they're seeing, something we don't, Darlin'
Let's give them something to talk about
Let's give them something to talk about
Let's give them something to talk about
How about love?
