I'm sick of hearing things like
"The right one
will come along"
"Have faith. There is someone out there for you"
Love is a piece of shit. To quote C.S. Lewis, taken from my friend's facebook:
“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.” - C.S. Lewis,

Awesome day today. Because of one thing:
SAMSUNG. GALAXY. S. III.
Awesomeness in hardware and software form. Seriously, it's a dramatic paradigm shift from using a Blackberry Torch 9800. The only thing I really have to get used to transiting to: the lack of a physical keypad, which was me main reason for getting a BB last june
Back to the tattoo studio this wed...me tatt needs touching up. Hope it won't fade this time, likewise for future tattoos (yes I'll be getting future tattoos. It's a matter of when, not if. The standout factor is, of course, money)

Fun week
Sat (26/5): Skating in the morning, and then Tattoo Day at Peninsula Shopping Centre! Yea thanks to Leen for accompanying me down. Had an awesome cross design done at Ink By Finch Studios. Pics can be found at me facebook page. If you're not my friend on fb, add me. Simple.
Sun: Usual stuff at church, plus skating @woodlands in the afternoon
Over the course of this week: the tattoo started scabbing about two days ago, and started peeling off late yesterday night. Right now as I'm typing this, the inked skin underneath the fallen scabs looks well brilliant
Mon: nabbed yet another comic - and yet another one under the Green Lantern banner - at Absolute Comics at Bugis. Me loves comics. My to-read list:
Brightest Day vol 2 (not necessary, the story is decent enough but not strong enough to make me chiong to Kino)
War of the Green Lanterns (paperback probably coming out later this year)
War of the Green Lanterns: (Aftermath) (paperback probably coming out next year...gaaahhh)
Green Lantern Corps: Sinestro (dunno when the paperback is coming out, since the hardcover was just released)
Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth
Today: Skating at some Bedok carpark. Was originally at ECP, but the venue changed due to the rain. After that I
did go to ECP to skate with SY. Shiok
And now to slack my ass off tomorrow

Fun weekend
19 May: continued with skating sessions at Bukit Batok, from 9-12. Yeah baby, although I wanna zoom down the roads and slopes at ECP. Then lunched at West Mall's KFC before training back to CCK, and then 190ed to Peninsula SC. Yes you're probably wondering why I didn't just take train all the way to City Hall. The reason? 10000000 times out of 10000000 i'll prefer taking bus to train
So went down there, met Jac and went for tattoo consultation. Yups loads of cool cross designs, and most likely will be getting inked next Sat. Just hope it won't be that pain :p
Then walked down to Bugis J, where me had a huge revelation in Absolute Comics. Screw you amazon for bluffing me about the release dates of the paperbacks. But whatever
And then bussed down to Suntec City, since me wanted to eat Pepper Lunch (seriously, they should do something about that name. The "Pepper Lunch for dinner" jokes are -.-). Anyway the curry beef and hamburger rice was awesome as always. And for once I actually finished it. Song bo
Then walked all around that Suntec/Marina/Promenade area trying to find the 75/960 bus stop. Finally found it near the Singapore Flyer grrr. So me was out from 0800 to 2300. Fantastic Baby
20 May: church in the morning, the aircon was really conducive for sleeping (i didn't sleep, mind you). Then laksa for lunch before continuing skating sessions, this time at Woodlands. Halfway through the trainee stage! Hopefully i can be a full-fledged instructor by the first week of June
So reached home at 1800 and crashed until 2000. And I'm way too lazy and tired to do anything other than rot at the comp (which is what I've been doing for the past 3 hours). My KARA drawing still incomplete since end of March...wanna draw Sohee, IU and Suzy, but talk is one thing, actions are another...
Things that i
WILL be doing:
1) Tattoo, most likely next sat
2) Nabbing the two or three Green Lantern trade paperbacks on my list. Comics rule
3)...
Er...yea. And NTU medical coming soon

Can't wait for 15 May and 22 May. Cos that's when the paperbacks of Brightest Day vol 2 and Green Lantern: Brightest Day come out respectively!!! ^^^
Job interview later...hope I get it...if not will be damn sian...
Looking forward to this Friday. Ice skating and bowling ftw
And if anyone reading this wants to go clubbing/pubbing and wants to invite yours truly along, please do so kthxbye

interesting past few days
Fri - went to dye my hair at lot 1's jean yip. Unfortunately, my dreams of dying it royal blue were destroyed, thanks to my dark hair and the shade of the dye. And there was practically no difference after it was finished -.- There goes $70 for practically nothing. Next time I'll pop by J Salon at FEP, and do a lighter colour. Maybe next month
Then after that went down to orchard to nab a comic. Me loves comics. Can't wait for the next Green Lantern paperbacks next month and in Sep
Today - went Jcube with Kim and her friend to help her with her work - that took all of 30 mins - and ice skating. Hmm after that two hours, I still prefer skating on wheels at ECP or wherever there isn't ice
Wanna get a tattoo...but so many considerations, like the design, location, venue, price etc. Decisions, decisions

Fun day of shopping at Bugis Junction (and partly at Bugis Street). $163 for 9 new T-shirts, not bad. Helped that several shops were having discounts. Of course, that meant I had no more dosh to buy comics. Nevermind, maybe this sat, next wed or
next sat
Corrinne May concert tomorrow! Yup excited to see her perform, although I'll prob have to go straight there from camp. Screw you fucking bastard for preventing me from taking off tomorrow
Speaking of which, 10 workings days left!!! Out of 27 absolute days left. Freak how am I gonna survive

Fun weekend
Sat - went down to indoor stadium with Chris and her friend to nab Super Junior stuff for SS4. Yea her friend started queuing around 10, i only reached there around 11.30 :p Managed to get our stuff at 2.30, after the rain nearly cost us our place in the queue -.- then went to KLP for lunch. Kpop ramen! Before train-ing home
Sun - not too pleased about some things that happened in church (long story) but after lunch, went down to the stadium for SS4 at 4pm. Yea quite fun and enjoyable, although didn't get as high as during SNSD concert, in which i was in the mosh pit lol. Was sitting for this one. Damn Shindong is as hot as Hyuna ^^ Eunhyuk and Kyuhyun were uber cute, Siwon is shuai ttm, and Leeteuk: don't cry oppa! ELFs will always support you. As someone going through NS myself (albeit finishing in two months) I know what it's like. Actually I don't, because I'm not a famous pop star where millions of fans would cry if I enlisted. Nevertheless, stay strong and take care of yourself ^^
Hmm not so much of a hangover today. Not as bad as the ones I had after Shinee and SNSD concerts anyway lawlz
And here's hoping Big Bang comes to singapore as well. Also waiting for their comeback album next wednesday

Fun weekend
Saturday: went to Binbin's house to celebrate his 21st birthday. Not bad, also caught up with some friends. Then after that met Dhamirah to pass her my (usedtobebutnownotso) beloved BB Curve 8520. Then went home to watch whatever remained of football. Super anticlimactic
Sunday: church, then went to novena for steamboat with the 4/8 guys. $25 friggin dollars per person for 8 people wtf. Then went to novena square before bussing down to some lan shop at bencoolen. First time playing dota...think i did quite reasonable, although there are way too many things to learn and remember for dota...
Then 190ed back home
Bought a coupla ebooks. And I'm reading both of them simultaneously...dots
My internet and facebook for blackberry apps are becoming increasingly screwed up. Anybody want to sponsor me a Macbook Pro 13" and a new Blackberry?...or maybe I should stop using blackberry and switch to other phones/platforms, like Samsung and Android
Monday, January 23, 2012,10:36 pm
interesting days, but lazy to go into details
Graphic Novels that i'm looking out for and/or planning on getting:
Blackest Night: Rise of the Black Lanterns
Blackest Night: War of the Green Lanterns
Green Lantern: Rebirth
Batman: The Black Mirror
Heroes vol 2
Black Hole
Yea don't know why i'm suddenly so into the Green Lantern series. Started with the Sinestro Corps War, before subsequently purchasing Green Lantern: Secret Origin, Blackest Night, Blackest Night: Green Lantern and Blackest Night: Tales of the Corps. Set me back by about $130. Think i much prefer reading about Green Lantern than Batman, Spiderman, Superman (vomits), X-men, surprisingly
And that's not including the Star Wars and mystery/thriller novels i have in mind...screw you Amazon for making it so hard to download books to my Kindle here in singapore...
I wanna skate again...been quite a while since the last time
Get the Blackberry Bold 9790 now, or wait for iPhone 5? A physical keyboard is definitely a huge factor, although OS and UI are just as important, and Apple edges BB on both those latter counts
Less than three months left...bloody hell why do i only have 5 days of leave, instead of 50
And thanks to Christella and her friend for getting SS4 tickets!!! So I can add Super Junior to my lists of concerts which includes Shinee, 2PM, MAMA and SNSD ^^^^
