the tagging game + cny experiences
Tuesday, February 20, 2007

This is what you are supposed to cut and paste if you decide to participate in the tagging game. Each player of this game starts off by giving 6 weird things about themselves. People who get tagged need to write in a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state the rules clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. After you do that, leave them each a comment letting them know you tagged them and to read your blog.

1) i try to sing awfully high notes when i THINK i'm alone. imagine the embarassment when i exit the elevator and bump into a neighbour who probably heard everything just before the door opened.

2) i absolutely cannot resist souped up beats. play a tune in front of me (example, bep's pump it), sit back, and enjoy the horsing ard i'm gonna perform. this includes when i'm driving. when with passengers i'm more well-behaved. but i've caught a few ppl peeking at me when i happen to stop beside a bus.

3) i love to take weird/contorted photos of ppl (inclusive of myself). i also love to find really old photos and juz look thru em again n again.

4) i have a fetish for toying with the ends of pillows (you noe, a square pillow has four ends). HEY YOU ASKED ME FOR WEIRD THINGS.

5) 98.87251% of money i spend on shopping are for shoes and bags. but not shoebags.

6) i hate loneliness, but i hate crowds as well.

well. i guess that's it. if i tag you, do try this out! hahaha it let's you realise a very important thing. you are juz plain weird, if you are willing to be honest to your readers. hahaha

and since i'm here, might as well blog abt wad has happened so far.

i was a SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVE on saturday. i managed to achieve the impossible by parking at sunset way or sum road dat has a sunset in it. it was tilted at a weird 36.9 degrees below level to the west and another weird 43.7 degrees below level to the north.

i've always said i'm a genius but no one would admit it.

as i mentioned before this post, i find CNY quite boring. nuttin much to do. nuttin much to say. i think it's cos my cousins are all really... different from me. different in terms of age, in terms of experience and all. yea kinda results in this gap which no one feels secure enough to cover. cos it wld mean the older cousins hafta act young and the younger cousins gotta act old. ends up we watch tv.

just follow law isn't a very good show. fell really short of my expectations. well i guess it's up to royston tan to pull up the standard of singaporean shows now.

yea basically dats it. i told u its boring.

but i have concluded that the singaporean economy must have improved.

well heres a post.

work was quite busy on thursday. it was my last day at work and so i felt obliged to do as much as i can. finished cue cards, staff aids all dat. oh wells. managed to leave at ard 620pm. which is pretty good. hahaha was watching the channel 8 9pm drama when joy told me her fren, who does modelling, was drafted to act alongside joanne peh and fiona xie.

i haf decided i want to be an actor.

i'm not being serious here.

ok friday i took leave. so i drove my dad to mrt station, b4 going home, fetching my mum ard to run errands. fought evil forces (a.k.a hardcore insane aunties) at NTUC. glad to say i survived. drove the car for a wash which took a bloody hour. and it wasnt even clean larh dammit. oh wells went back home and almost immediately had to drive my mum out again to her haircut. parked the car at my dads workplace before heading for the library. i think the opening of bishan library released this whole load of brand new comics into the libraries. which is good cos it means i got alotta stuff to borrow. hahaha ran in the rain to SMU. watched hengsoon's creative thinking project which was kinda interesting, tho i din really understand if there was really a drive to prove a point. can see wad it means, but it din really cause impact. oh wells my two cents worth. it was creative nonetheless. and im pretty sure dats the whole point of CREATIVE thinking.

walked wif ling to raffles city where we had pizza. she had one slice i had five. glutton-ed out. walked to esplanade park wif snapples in hand (mine not for long tho, as those who know the rate at which i consume liquids) and walked along all the chinese new year stalls that are set up annually there. ling had nv been there b4, while i had been there for like... years. well it was really amusing when we reached this OSIM stall. there was this flabelos machine, where when u stand on it, the platform vibrates, effectively making anybody shake their booty at hyper speed. i had tried it at station before, but jialing was amazed at the invention and went to try. imaginably, she drew quite a number of bystanders. all the chee ko pek. after she got off, ppl began to put kids on the platforms. hahahaha there was these two angmoh kids which were particularly cute. think the girls was only like... 4 yrs old? and she was grabbing onto the stable part of the machine for life while she... shook her booty. yea ling took fotos. oh wells.

walked along for abit more before we sat down and had a talk. it wasnt much. cos i was awfully quiet, that i apologise for. oh wells walked down and talked more till we reached esplanade. theres this over-enthu guy who works at chocz in esplanade. wanted to buy choc-coated strawberries for jialing but ended up pretty amused. sat on this cushion and we talked whilst eating strawberries, talking even more kok, and flicking broken ends of toothpicks. i must say that ling is a noob at flicking broken ends of toothpicks.

sent her home, travelled home. slept late. and it's the eve of chinese new year already!

seems to me im beginning to lose the excitement everyone has during these holidays. first it was christmas which i was working. den new years eve, which i din feel the hype. now chinese new year i oso like. oh. ok. so it is here. yea.

HOW??? i nid to find my enthu-ness back mans.




the scientist
Monday, February 12, 2007

i was just guessin at numbers and figures pulling the puzzles apart questions of science science and progress do not speak as loud as my heart

well i beein doin fine. certain activities had been mentioned in the previous post. and on saturday i actually met up wif frens i haven seen in a decade. yes its not exaggeration. 10 years. and they are my pri 1 - 4 classmates. its amazing. see how everyone has changed. xinwen has rocker hair. weida is 186cm. weijun is all muscular. jiaming is fast becoming a nurse. probably the only person who hasnt changed much is jinfu. since hes still as prim and proper.

initially it was really awkward. cos we cldnt recognise each other, and really din noe where to start. but the ice was smashed to little bits as we began to crap it out in front of the two tiny bbq pits. it was a night of laughs and reminiscing. all the funny moments. all the secrets dug out. and all the apologies we owe were made. i'm sorry jiaming for making you cry. hahahaha i really didn't mean to accuse you of cheating during spelling test.

the food was imba. 13 ppl ate 20 ppl's worth. and among the 13 ppl, the 3 girls hardly had bites. they cooked food. and left it there. FOR US TO EAT. hahaha i wld suppose most guys wld love this concept. but when ur nearly bursting, that is freakin scary.

as jinfu said. i dun think i'm gonna eat satay for 3 months.

sunday was my mama's birthday. well. not tan chio tiang. it's kok chuan tin. hahaha lunch in church was rather funny. RED is the keyword isn't it? fotos were taken. aplenty. at night was reunion dinner. ate super alot sial. after that went to ahma's house to take fotos for my bro's project. nv really realised dat all this stuff were of so much meaning until i thot carefully about the items ytd.

subsequently were experiments with the lift at ahma's block (also yansing's block). we found out dat even tho the lift isnt supposed to stop at levels 2 - 21, we could easily manipulate the system into forcing it to stop at desired levels. pressing three buttons at the same time when the lift is at level 7 would stop it at 13th level. dats quite saddening cos yansing stays at the 12th level. but i'm sure wif more practice, perfection would be achieved.

had dinner wif yansing. or rather i watched her have dinner. it was short, but we got to talk. sumthin we haven had in years. yea still rmb last time we went out tgt summore. nowadays, shes busy, im busy. hardly haf the time. well i guess i shall try harder to make time for this frenship.

so it was fun for me. or at least really pleasant. i was still telling jialing late last night, or rather very early this morning, that it's been the best week in months. had plenty of cool experiences.

but in a sudden, i was plunged into limbo. felt all lethargic at work. felt sian. felt sibei sian. felt really worthless. i noe there are a few ppl out there who wld wanna slap me for having said dat. but i'm juz accurately reflecting how i feel. oh wells.

it seems that with every up, there has gotta be a down.




finally a post
Saturday, February 10, 2007

well the last time i din blog anything remotely unlyric-al or anything of proper purpose was two sunday ago. so i guess i got alot to catch up with.

major events i suppose, wld be thaipusam. stuck wif a billion indians, wif stuff stickin out of em. i wld say dat it wasnt a very normal sight. neither is it a very calming sight.

er... work had been pretty boring. i brought countless comics in to read. work seems to be at a slow now. wonder when CNY deployments preparation work is gonna actually come into play. theres chingay to worry abt too. hmms...

well the cell group system in church is underway. i hope everything is goin fine. my grp seems to be doin ok. at least we haf some laughs. of course not as much as when we were in love group. but i guess everyone needs time to tune in to the same frequencies. weiling has been doin great as a grp leader as well as reminding me to do my QT every morning. unfortunately i cant say the same for myself... :P i'm sorry gen soon. i will try harder.

played drums in church for the 2nd time. think i did better. but still alotta flops man. more prac more prac more prac more prac...

er... wad else wad else. well monday i took the car out for a drive. plans failed. hopes dashed. but thank goodness for the one who stays at parc palais. picked her up and she directed me to drive in one direction for like... 15 minutes before suggesting dat we go to the singapore yacht club, which was like in the opposite direction. a u-turn and a straight road was all dat brought us to the beautiful pier. we nearly entered this restricted area tho :P you cld find the pic of the pier at the blog of the parc palais resident. if u haven notice. i haven got a single foto on my blog entries. only 260++ on my blog template. yes the pier. it was so nice. tho there were a few uncles sitting in some shelter behind us, but as they were a distance away there was no audible chatter. and along the road i got to unload, and at the pier we were somewhat more quiet. the sea. a few fotos to rmb the night by. just the perfect thing i needed to smile all the way home. thanks babe.

yesterday went for an police ops at toa payoh area. checked a few kids, looked out for a few pickpockets. but in the end we caught a buncha punks. i was pretty sure we were in their territory or sumthin cos alotta young punks were lookin our way when we brought the few we caught ard. and dey all made phone calls before slippin away. oh wells. i guess it was a really interesting insight as to wad really happens on these anti-crime rounds. and it wld haf been a whole lot more fun if words such as carrer, binker, wonteer, carbeeng, and tsui were pronounced more accurately as colour, blinker, volunteer, clubbing and three.

headed to my grandma's place for coffee and a story abt her life. well i caught half of it. i guess when my bro writes out the interview i wld get the full picture.

the kids in 1520 got back their results for o levels. kinda reminded me of the time i got back my results. was REALLY REALLY nervous back then, but it felt like nothing after the paper slip ended up in my hands. hahaha dat was a long time ago man. A LONG LONG TIME AGO. and remembered when after first three months. some friends had to leave us. it was heartache. first three months system rocks and sucks at the same time. it's like bringing u to the cliff at the top of the world for a breathtaking experience, and ooops sumone got pushed over.

hmms... there is a 1AA to 4A gathering goin on at zheyi's house later. think i wld go. but... see how bah. :P joy is more psyched up than me about it apparently. hahaha till nxt time readers.




even newer template

i can't believe i just did this modified look to my blog until this freakin time.

anyway, its now more fotos and less buried-under-piles.

time to look for yourself in there dudes.


i will blog about my LIFE (if i have any) perhaps tomorrow. hopefully i can remember the stuff.
and that means joy, u gotta wait for awhile before i describe to everyone how you brought me to that beautiful pier that night. hahaha oh btw, the beautiful pier is amongst these stacks of fotos :P




that day

周杰伦 - 千里之外
Friday, February 02, 2007

屋檐如悬崖 风铃如沧海 我等燕归来
时间被安排 演一场意外 你悄然走开
故事在城外 浓雾散不开 看不清对白
你听不出来 风声不存在 是我在感慨

梦醒来 是谁在窗台 把结局打开
那薄如蝉翼的未来 经不起谁来拆

我送你离开 千里之外 你无声黑白
沉默年代 或许不该 太遥远的相爱
我送你离开 天涯之外 你是否还在
琴声何来 生死难猜 用一生 去等待

闻泪声入林 寻梨花白 只得一行 青苔
天在山之外 雨落花台 我两鬓斑白
闻泪声入林 寻梨花白 只得一行 青苔
天在山之外 雨落花台 我等你来

一身琉璃白 透明着尘埃 你无瑕的爱
你从雨中来 诗化了悲哀 我淋湿现在
芙蓉水面采 船行影犹在 你却不回来
被岁月覆盖 你说的花开 过去成空白

梦醒来 是谁在窗台 把结局打开
那薄如蝉翼的未来 经不起谁来拆

我送你离开 千里之外 你无声黑白
沉默年代 或许不该 太遥远的相爱
我送你离开 天涯之外 你是否还在
琴声何来 生死难猜 用一生 去等待
