Day 1:
Arrived at Changi airport at 5.50am and my flight was at 8am. Well, seems like my parents were more excited than me and they had beaten my aunt's family by reaching so early. We only got to check-in our luggages at near 7am when most of the members for tis tour had arrived (and yes, tour as in tour packaged).
Flight didn't take too long and we landed in Hong Kong. It's really amazing to see how small is HK when the plane was spiraling around the island before touching down (and of cos, when i've landed it's a different thing, the island didn't seem as small as it was when i was 'up' there).
Wasted some time waiting for the ferry to Macau and assembling of the tour members. The thing tat left a deep impression on me was that the air smells, tasted and felt like exhaust everywhere i went to. *cough cough*
We had free and easy by the time we reach Macau and it was like 5 plus already, imagine the time wasted to go there. So sis requested to go to Venetian Hotel where it was one of the setting for "Boys Over Flowers". The place was super posh and you can really feel as if u won't b able to buy anything there, lol. The casino is located at the 1st story and anyone above 18 are allowed to enter, of cos u can always choose not to waste your money there and jus 'kope' some mineral water from the lady serving them, and that was me plus not forgetting my evil sista, wahahahah. After spending alittle more time there, sis wanted to get the famous Portuguese egg tarts from there but every single one was sold out. The kind sales person told us they hav got another branch not too far away from our location but cabbing there would still b a better choice. However we choose to rely on 'Bus 11' (most likely our parents wanted to see more of Macau's nite scenery).
Time left for us wasn't suffice as it was already nite time so we went on an adventure to look for the egg tarts, but still with no avail. Instead we found 'fish eggs' at the local 7-11 where they had a counter to cook 'fresh' fishballs for customers who ordered them (fish eggs = fish balls). Gotten some of the local delights along the wat before we cabbed back to our hotel and ended our 1st day of the trip. *yawnz*

The cooking gone bad
Ever since i was a young man (literally), i am inspired to be a chef who cooks good food and of cos food i love to eat. So far i've tried cooking spaghetti with home made sauce and fried rice with no issues, of cos you might say that they are e-z to cook food. Today was the day i've tried baking cookies, the first time in my life, and it turned out pretty not-so-delicious.
I've followed the recipe (but substituted butter with Crisco) and added the usuals. However the taste still turned out quite weird, the aroma of wat a cookie shd hav is still there though. After making tis batch of cookies i've finally realised 2 things; NEVER EVER add walnuts into the cookie dough else ur cookies will hav a bitterish after taste and I WON'T WANNA HAV ANOTHER COOKIE FOR UNTIL A MONTH LATER!!!
Recently i've been using Windows 7 and it's seriously going to drive me nuts soon. Windows 7 had tis added security that doesn't allow us users to be a true administrator even though we ALREADY ARE the administrator. It's really a major turn-off for me as well as many others around the world (just do a google search and u will know wat i meant).
C'MOM MICROSOFT, Y ARE YOU DOING TIS TO US?!

The motiving pill
This blog has been finally revived again thanks to a man. The man who is a motivator in my eyes, the man whom had grilled (not literally) not just me but everyone else under his care during the 3months we spent with him, the man whom had made "what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger" his trademark slogan. He is the man who made us into a better man and he is Jeffery Tan.
Memories started to rush into my head after a short chat with him (even though it's just like a "hi-bye" kinda thing, he still made me wanted to shout like a little girl seeing her idol, and i'm not exaggerating!). And some things tat doesn't change is that he can and is still walking super fast.
IPT was really fun (was feeling so freaking jittery and keep wanting to pee, saded) and i really need to sleep soon to get my at-least-7hrs-of-undisturbed-rest! zzz

Left-Right-Wrong?
Many times, there are no definitely right or wrong answers, it's only the person's perspective when they view at something.
Many times, when i feel tat i'm so wrong at things, people only see me as someone who gives up easily. It's undeniable but true. When i don't feel like i hav the strength anymore i will jus giv up. Am i wrong to be weak? i'm jus giving myself excuses. i donno how to solve the problems when i've already gotten the answer.
Many times, when people say i'm selfish becos i only live for myself, i beg to differ. Everyone lives for themselves, they live their own life and they hav the rights to live the way they wan. Is that wrong to say tat?
at times, i jus wonder wat i can b and wat i can do. a pre life-crisis is jus so not fun esp when faced by someone who constantly worry bout when the sky is fallin...

A day of rewards
The long weekend is finally ending. It's been awhile since i can finally relax (for the time being) after being done with all the stressful projects and tests regardless whether it's the zoo or the insurance thingy.
A brief logging on wat happened today; it's a family outing to Victor's Kitchen (yet again for me, went last time with the zoo peeps) and it was actually the 1st time when i had fear of seeing dim sumS <- emphasizing on the 'S' here. Mom was like over ordering all the prawny dim sums and we ended up 'screaming' in disgust when the staff came over to our table and giving us more than wat we can eat, so we ended up taking away. Anyways we ate $80+ worth of stuff, can u imagine how much we actually order?!
Oh ya, before tat we went over to Cash Converter to sell away my old laptop and they only gav me $100 for it. Well, i would say it's better than leaving the so-going-to-spoil laptop at home to rust and get moldy.
Went over to sls to check out some stuff and i can say i'm really thankful to hav friends whom i can rely on, even for simple things tat might sound really dumb. Thx to LAIPING <- emphasizing on ur real name, for ur help on the flash and josh for the RAM info (sorry for waking u up as well, felt so guilty back then, argh) and lastly not forgetting Jing Hao even though u didn't pick up my call as u were busy doing something somewhere else back then and leaving ur phone in ur room. Great friends are hard to come by esp those who can tolerate the stupid things we do or say, well, thx again to all my friends who had stood by me all these times. :)
Met up with joseph and ben after tat at orchard for some drink (drank ice lemon water in nydc as i was super bloated at tat time). Lucky thing was i found a e-z link card worth $11.25 in cityhall at that time joseph called me, it's so coincidental. Back to the topic again, work is starting tml so didn't want to stay out too late plus the fact is i'm getting alittle tired so went home early. Yawnz, time to sleep. zzzzzz

Surrender
I have to admit that sometimes i give up on things too easily, but there are times where when i set my mind to do something, i will wanna complete it no matter wat becos i'm quite a perfectionist. Anyways i've decided to decline the insurance job offer by clemence, it might sound kinda dumb after paying $300+ for the tests and now i'm quitting on him but i really find it very tiring and pointless. Tiring in the sense tat i'm told myself b4 i will NEVER wanna do part time studies and now i'm actually doin it and it pointless becos i don't hav the drive to go on when nothing can sink into my brain, everything jus doesn't make sense to me, i'm jus not meant to study business related stuff afterall...
Went to gombak stadium with ming chuen for a 2hrs almost non-stop badminton session tis morning and surprisingly i managed to trash him like wat i always refer him to; a pancake. We had 5 rounds of 3x21 points match where winner gets 2 sets victory. Can see tat somehow he wasn't on his top form today as his reflexes seemed to be alittle rusty. It's been a really looooooooooong time since i last had a good workout (haven't been jogging since 3 to 4 weeks ago due to my super busy schedule, if not it's jus becos i was too tired to carry on).
After tat went out with my sis shortly after the game and a quick shower at home. So we went out to catch the movie "The Ugly Truth". The part where katherine helgi had her orgasm in the restaurant was really classic and i couldn't stop laughing to a point where i almost tot i would jus die due to lack of oxygen. Got a small salty popcorn for the movie as well for myself, yumz!
The movie was not as bad as wat the critics had rated though, at my point of view. So after the movie we went over to raffles city for lunch and short look-see. While walking around after our lunch at soup spoon, ppl from the Singapore Writer Festival approached us and asked us to giv them a word and they will giv us a poem and on top of tat a goodie bag worth almost $8 of food and drink. Of cos, my inner auntie attitude got the better of me and we went ahead giving them our 'sacred' word. Mine being "Job" and my sis's "positive". In return, we got our goodies bags and our poem, it's like the bestest deal ever in the world. haha.
Nevertheless, let me share my poem with the world;
poem title is "Best Job In The World"
slowly, gently
unbuckle the pants
pull down the zip
pull down the jeans
underwear unravels too
in one swift jerk.
there, waiting in anticipating
folds of skin so thin
i can see the blood
course through your vessels
as your cock throbs to life
will he crow for me?
lick my lips in anticipating
moisture wet and sticky
tongue flicks out to greet
and i kneel down in worship
my false idol, my totem pole
if devotion was done with kisses
and prayers expressed through sucks
i think dear boy, tonight
you are much in luck.
And so, i got a blowjob from the (horny) poet who typed out the poem nicely for me using the typewriter.
When i thought i can sought for a 'guidance' for my job and i ended up receiving something erotic. For tis, i surrender, truely. Gosh!

Feather Dusting my blog
It's been awhile since i've been last blogged, i know u guys are DYING to read my updates (kidding). Previous weeks had been really hectic for me till a point where i don't even know or understand y i don't hav time for myself. Life was like work->sleep->work-sleep and on and on. I had to rush my docent's project, rushing for ben's project (didn't do a proper one though due to lack of time), study for my docent's tests and rushing off to newton for M9 lessons held over 3 nites. M9 Lesson was really fast as it's supposed to b held over 3 full days, 9 to 5 each. Ugh. Test date is not set yet so i will hav ample time to prep myself for the test, luckily.
In a few hours time i will b in the zoo, doing my retests and presenting my project done and get done with the 3 months of training phase and (hopefully) graduate as a docent AND life will not b as b-z as now (hopefully again). It's like a never ending cycle where new events will fill in my schedule as soon as there are free slots available. I can foresee tat when my docent programme become a at-least-once-a-month thing, the insurance 'programme' will fill in the slot. Suffocating, but I WILL SURVIVE!!!
And nite lessons after work is really no fun. If i hav a chance to go uni, i will sure to take up a full time course instead of a part time study-after-work course; projects will be almost impossible to b done properly, homework and revisions will not be as e-z to b done due to the lack of time. Hope these are considered valid reasons instead of excuses.
Anyways, recent updates of myself (like finally), bought a new secondhand travel lens thru clubsnap but the quality of the lens is alittle cui. I suspect there is fungus growth inside of the lens plus dusts can b seen as well, didn't know y i still went ahead to buy from tat guy but oh well, i will need to send it for a cleanup. Bad thing was tat 'Fatigue' from clubsnap (a guy who cleanup lens for ppl and charges very low) doesn't wan to cleanup my lens, weird guy (i mean who doesn't mind extra cash?)...Quality of pictures taken using the lens is really beyond my expectations though (guess the cam body does its part as well).
Went to watch "Final Destination 4 in 3D" with my family jus now and the series really hav to stop already. 1st of all, it didn't satisfy my inner sick happy-tree-friends hunger, 2ndly there were too much loopholes to the movies tat doesn't make any sense, 3rdly the storyline was getting more and more i-know-wat's-gonna-happen-next and lastly i don't think it's worth $13 per tix when it was such a short movie. My dad and mom were alittle traumatized though saying it was too scary for them; too bloody and gore i guess? My sis and i was like, 'ugh, such a boring movie', lol.
I miss those slacking days when i was jobless then. I so looking forward to a backpacking road trip in aussie/new zealand with few friends. I miss the farm stay in aussie not forgetting seeing the milkyway for the 1st time as well. I miss sleeping for 10hrs a day.
I miss being a kid...

Twice bitten, forever shy
Finally an entry after the last one in July. Sad to say, tis ain't really a happy entry as well. To summarise for my genting trip; it sucked, big time! And tis is the worst trip ever even though i tot my ORD trip was quite bad due to some drama when ben had his bitch fit for one of the nite but was pacified when some retail therapy was done and the fact tat i last for hp for the 1st time.
My most enjoyable moments only lasted for a total of 5hrs, at most; went to watch G.I Joe with dad and sis and the movie really kicked ass. It's best action movie tat i had watch so far for tis yr (transformers 2 wasn't really tat great, i only gav scores for megan fox, terminator 4 jus had some brainless explosion scenes with not much storyline.). Went shopping with my sis and had our peace time for tat few hrs and of cos the best part which was the sky venture (although i can't really 'fly' tat well back then).
The whole trip did not serve its purpose for me though when i had already planned to make tis trip an escape for me from work, from all the stress, all the responsibilities tat i hav to face in my own reality. All the babysittings and running away from my aunt's phone calls was really tiring me out mentally. The only innocent party was my cousin, whom had hoped to enjoy himself at the outdoor theme park with us but didn't get to do anything he wanted, instead being thrown around like a golf ball, doing things alone, basically a wasted trip for him as well. I had made myself clear even before the trip tat i don't intend to go to the theme park since it's really quite a waste of time as i tot this might be a very good time to spend it with my family, aka family holiday trip. Well, my aunt jus didn't get the idea and in order to make her know our obvious hints, we made our cousin suffer.
There are somethings tat i jus donno how to express out. I wanted people around me to be happy, and even though i can't giv everyone joy but i hope they can feel it. Thing is tat i jus hope tat ppl don't and won't take me for granted and start using me like it's something natural or i owed them.
Special thx to Lai Ping ('aaron' was jus a camp alias, ppl pls tke note!) for lending me his flash, even though i didn't use it much and i still need to know more bout my cam's function. So many functions, so little time. Next trip, a 16 days backpacking trip in aussie or new zealand!

Failure
I'm beginning to doubt myself even more after failing the crap module 5 test. It's jus a simple financial law 100 mcq test and i can't even get myself a simple green worded pass. I totally depress and disappointed with myself for not studying hard enough, i feel like i'm jus wasting everybody's time and my own money, everything ended up in naught.
I remember mom calling me tis morning to tell me 'good luck for the test', i was totally motivated by her simple gesture of encouragement and love. But somehow i felt tat i not only failed the test, i failed her as well. I can't pass my zoo's test, i can't even pass my basic theory test at the 1st 2 times, can't even pass my ippt, can't even pass tis m5 test and i don't even know wat good can i do anymore. The only thing i can do is to snatch a lollipop from a 3 yrs old's hand and i won't b proud of it even if i were to do tat.
When my friends asked me y do i even wanna consider being a insurance agent, it's not jus because of the fact tat being one can earn fast and quick bucks if u r willing to work hard for it, it's because i wan my parents to b able to enjoy life earlier and not slog so hard on their work. With extra money in hand i can sponsor them on holiday trips overseas to countries they wanted to go but never been to before. I jus wan to make tat simple wish come true, but can i even do tat? At tis point of time i don't even know wat i can do anymore. Anyways i'm only depressed not devastated so i won't think of committing suicide, no worries guy. haiz

My hp evolution
The 2 worst phones tat i had ever used; Siemens ST55 & Nokia E71. No comments for u guys, jus RIP, thx!The rest of the phones served me well, thus a special tribute to them. Thank you nokia 3310 for serving me faithfully during my secondary sch and and poly times. Thank you sony ericsson w810i for serving me during my pre-ns days and sorry tat i had to abandon u since military sector doesn't allow camera phones.
As for the newest member, i shall love u till death do us apart (tat applies only if u die on me 1st!)
Life's a contradiction
I felt so helpless when my tots start to contradict each other. I feel tat i'm jus someone who worry too much bout things tat will not happen in the present, unlikely in the near future but definitely someday when i'm 40 or 50. I can't help it and they jus keep popping up in my mind. I donno wat to do anymore, help!
In short, make ur own paths, follow ur heart, don't get lead by others by the nose.

Went to visit jon yap's mother's wake yesterday, good thing was jon was still quite calm and looking fine at the wake. I guess bcos his mom is still 'there' at the wake tat's y he don't feel the lost yet since he can still see her in a way. I won't wanna imagine how it is to b like to b in his shoes but i definitely can feel his pain of losing someone dear. Hopefully he will b strong enough to endure the pain, i know he will.

Headache is really the best word tis time
Ugh my head feels like crap now, it had been like tat since yesterday evening. Haiz. The keeper's attachment for FF was not really tat action packed but nevertheless an enriching sunday in my life.
The 'poor' soul who was in the station with me was andrew (the freelance photographer). We started off the day with the preparation of fruits and food for the animals in the biodome. I was tasked to bunch up fruits using the cable for the sloths and bats while andrew was b-z cutting sweet potato (and there were so many of them!) for the mousedeers. However it didn't take us too long and the keepers told us to go for teabreak. Basically during the teabreak we didn't hav much to do, jus 'nua' around as we jus had too much time to spare.
The fun part was after our lunch (lunch was almost the same as SFI food... T_T). I was asked to follow Jules, who is incharged of the butterflies and frogs, asked me to clean up the crickets leftover food. At tat point i was still alittle freaked out when i had to open the box and imagining the crickets will jus jump all over the place and over me, luckily they didn't. Got over my fear in less than 3 mins and i actually enjoyed them hopping around my hand when i hav to reach my hand in to take out the food. They were actually quite squishy and not as hard as i tot.
Then to the butterflies, Jules taught me how to differentiate the gender between the 2 common species tat they keep around biodome; the great eggfly (the smaller black butterfly which their youngs are the spikey caterpillars) and the jungle nypmph butterfly (the bigger white butterfly which their youngs are the ones with fake big spikes). Got to catch them and release them to the biodome and it's really fun as ppl will jus come over and look at them, asking qns and got awed by their beauty.
After tat Jules took me to the her saki monkeys, i guess there are only 2 in the zoo. The male one is called casper whereas the female is called sol. They are 2 lively siblings but HAV to b kept apart to prevent sol from getting pregnant. Anyways Jules fed the saki monkeys stick insects and i actually felt quite sad for the poor insects. I guess it's bcos we don't get to see them often in the wild (they are suppose to b good in camouflaging anyways). And beside the saki monkey enclosure is a display of the jungle nymph pupae, i hav to gather the butterflies again to release them to the biodome, those butterflies with wings not fully developed were all KIA (killed in action) by Jules as she mentioned tat it's the best for them since they can't fly and probably won't survive inside the biodome. Tat, i was stunned! But wat she said was quite true, so bo bian.
Last item of the day was feeding the lemurs in the biodome. We followed Janice around, and again ppl jus swarm towards us. The lemurs were really cute and they preferred peeled bananas so i had to peel for 1 of them. Wat a good life!
Well, didn't get to do the closing with them, if not i will get a chance to touch the 1 and only tree kangaroo in the zoo. Shall do it again next time, with a better camera by my side tat is...

'Headache' isn't the best word to describe
A lot of things are going thru my mind right now and i don't even know if i can put those things tat i'm thinking into words. I had went for the interview with Ming Hui's manager yesterday and some of the stuff he said were actually like a good tight slap on my face, something to wake me up from my fantasy, yet again. Not tat he had brainwashed me or anything but he really talk senses into me, i guess tat is how he speaks to his clients, 'slap' them back to reality.
So wat if i had become a insurance agent a.k.a financial planner? Friends will start avoiding me? Family and relatives despising me? Will i make big money jus like the manager himself? Wat happen if i've become successful? Will friends whom had avoided me try to take advantage of me? Will my family and relatives b so awed by me?
Things in the future are hard to say but i really hope i can hav the support from my love ones. Becos if u never do it, u will never know how is it like, how well u can do. You live ur life and u only live it once. Of cos, if my friends start to avoid me becos of my job and before i even say anything, i can't do anything bout it. And i will definitely not hard selling to my friends, strangers mayb. Of cos, i'm not shortlisted yet and i'm not confirmed to b selected, it's jus a scenario. haha
Problems like tis are unavoidable. I've tot about tis since i was younger. So wat is a definition of 'friend'? I'm sure everyone will hav their own way of defining it. To me, a 'friend' will b someone whom i can trust, hav fun, a good listening ear plus a good adviser in times of need, not having the need to hide my feelings or put up a fake facade and of cos someone whom i can love (friendship love doesn't hav to mean sexual or bgr kind of love). And to me, friendship is like a double-edge sword, once u know a person well, u will either accept his/her flaws and or try fading away from his/her life. It's pretty irony to say tis but i've done the latter which i had mentioned, i mean let's face the fact, who doesn't? However it's jus something tat i've hoped will never happened since i don't wish to b the one being treated like tat. In short, u can't hav the best of both worlds and nothing is perfect, seriously.
It's really sad to see in our society now tat ppl out in tis fast pace world are using their 'friend(s)' as business tools. Once rated as someone with value of achieving something they wan, they will b 'used' until the point where they are no longer 'useful', after tat discarded and the vicious cycle continues. Can't we hav back the innocence and naive days in the past where ppl who hav friends and those friends are those who really care about them and love them spiritually? Ugliness of such act really makes me feel like pulling my eyes out from the sockets. Ugh!

Bad customer experience
Ever had tis experience like wherever u went to, u will jus b having a relatively bad experience with the sales assistance? In tis scenario, i'm the customer. I'm starting to wonder if it is because of me being a bad customer or the ppl i face were simply not as friendly...
To start off, i went to starhub yesterday at causeway point to enquire bout several stuffs. It's not tat the staffs were rude or anything but i feel rather unwelcome and the feeling was totally wrong. Mayb it's jus me overreacting again.
As i am starting to feel poor again, i went specially to get some economic beehoon for lunch where the shop is jus opp united square. So tis is wat i had ordered; beenhoon, kong pow chicken, bruised tofu and cabbage, AND IT COST ME $3.80!!! OMG! I didn't even see gold flakes inside my bee hoon no matter how hard i tried to flip it around to check. Freaking c**** man is jus out to cheat ppl's money. Argh, i might as well go ahead and hav my subway meal at united square...
After dinner, i went down to starhub shop again with dad to do settle the recontract of mobile phone (my phoneline is under my dad's name so i can't do anything without his IC and signature, so troublesome...) as well as checking my ridiculously expensive phone bill. I don't even remember using the GPRS yet i'm still being charged for it, gosh. However, i was told tat the shop doesn't do customer service so i can only call the singtel hotline to check, on top of tat the mobile phone tat i wanted to hav tat comes tgt with the recontract plan is currently out of stock so i can only wait for next week for the stock to arrive. Wasted time and wasted trip, sianz.
Things still doesn't go well with work. I'm still doing saikang in the office and was told tat i might b going over to Nparks to help out, which means i will need to go to Botanical gardens for work. Still not confirmed yet but most likely will b happening soon, haiz. I don't even feel valued working for NCS, shdn't us b treated as valued customers as well?

A rainy Sun-day
Today was the last day for everyone in the docent programme to be in the common phase tgt, next week onwards we'll b joining our new 'family' and separated to our respective stations already. For me, i'll b going to Fragile Forest. For the benefit of doubt for those who doesn't really understand wat i'll b doing, i'm actually dealing with insects (caterpillars and stick insects), doing a 'tour guide' for guest in the biodome so it's pretty cool actually.
However, for tat to happen i hav to pass my test 1st. Today was also test day which the test is based on the management and operation of the zoo. Quite a number of ppl failed and tat includes me as well (since i didn't study and the test was freaking hard...). More tests (retest as well as station test) coming up so i'll keep my fingers crossed.
Something tat surprises me was tat they actually kept the naked mole rats behind the fragile forest restricted area as they have yet build up a display 'nest' for them yet after they did the renovation work for the Kids' world. The behind the scenes tour was truly amazing as there are loads of stuff tat ppl can't get to see even if they go to the zoo a million times. Sad thing was tat my compact cam is still out of batt and i couldn't find the freaking charger tat was hidden away at home, argh.
After today's programme, i headed down to Changi airport to send Eugene off. It's quite sad tat he forgotten bout us and left without saying goodbye when we were jus standing beside his other big grp of friends. Good thing was tat he still remembered to call back, if not i don't suppose he will hav a good time if he is to come back to Singapore for a visit, haha.
Well, life goes on and hopefully life gets better everyday. Kinda sianz of my freaking job and it's really a waste of time, but no work = no money, tat's jus something unchangeable. Saded...

The biggest anti-climax day, ever
Today didn't turn out to be a very good one as it's pretty much the most anti-climax one ever. I woke up feeling alittle sick with the left side of my head hurting like it's splitting up any moment. Bought a pair of tickets over the internet and ended up paying $13 for each plus $1 for the booking fee, without knowing tat THERE WERE NO DISCOUNTS UNLESS PAYING OVER THE COUNTER NOT THRU ADVANCE BOOKING.
So i bought 2 tix for "Ice age 3 in 3D" at 1.05pm at Cathay AMK, watched with janice in the couple seats area. And before u guys jump into unnecessary conclusion, i had asked everyone as well but they were ALL not free to watch, janice didn't mind watching with me so i went ahead with the plan. The movie wasn't really tat fantastic and the 3D effect was barely noticeable to me (mayb i'm to blind to see tat?). Kids were crying and talking loudly in the cinema so i didn't really enjoy the movie tat much due to tat as well (with the added sound effect), i mean i couldn't even differentiate whether if it was the baby's cry in the cinema or the one in the movie when the mammoth gav birth to her baby. Gosh!
While waitin for the gathering at 7pm, we happened to bump into minghui, who jus got off his work. After a small chat, janice went off to meet her friends at vivo and we continued to talk for until 7pm. I can see how he had become after he started working as an insurance agent/financial planner, the confidence and high self esteem is something i don't hav yet. Time to learn from the pro...
At 7, everyone met up at AMK mrt control station and while waiting for Jing Xiang the majesty to arrive (he is ALWAYS late, wahahahah), i went to the toilet to relieve myself. There, i saw someone wanking or seemingly to do tat at the urinal, i repeat, it's urinal not cubicle. Y do i hav the 'chance' to see tis kinda things everytime i use the public toilet, dotz. If he hav the needs jus use the cubicle lah, at least ppl won't get to witness his 'hardwork'.
By the time we reach the jap place, it was already almost 8. The food there wasn't really tat worth it for their small portions for everyone, good thing was tat wat i had ordered still tasted quite nice. Daryl ordered the japanese peas tat we don't eat so we had to think of ways to finish them, the easiest wat; Number code (Zhong Ji Mi Ma). Anyways, not many ppl turned up and those supposed to turn up pang seh-ed again (only Joseph, Jun Yu, Jing Xiang, Venjamin, Wei Heng, Joshua, Daryl, Zhi Wen, Wei Zhi, Jun Kiat, Ying Jin came). We had fun sabotaging Joshua and making him eating the disgusting peas. But a series of anti climax starts after the fun, the cam i brought was out of batt, everyone donno wat to do after the dinner so josh and i suggested going to liquid kitchen to chill, everyone went home instead. However, as a consolation, we get to laugh at Joseph for mistakingly wearing a pair of boxers shorts as beach shorts. It's pretty obvious tat it's a pair of boxers for it's flowery design, texture, cutting, the front part for the convenience of peeing tat can only b found on boxers shorts and it's length.
Well, i can only say tat he got balls (or rather really bad sense of fashion and identification of garments) to wear it and go to city area (without realising wat he was wearing). I bet tat's something he won't forget as for wat he did on his 21st b'day. haha. I had bad experience on my 21st b'day and i don't think i will forget either...
p.s JOSEPH TAY WILL HAV A NEW NICKNAME; THE "BOXERS BOY", SMOKINGGGGGGGGGGGG!

Irony
Tis sunday at the zoo wasn't about lessons or visits to places. Instead, we were asked to help out in Zoolympics, an annual zoo event catered for kids below 12 yrs old where they hav to go around the zoo and finding 5 stations with obstacles to clear. I got placed in Kanga Roo-A-Hop, in short SBJ. It's really ironic as i keep on failing my SBJ and in the end i still got into a station in-charge of SBJ. Can't believe it! haha
Well, kids today were generally quite obedient. Some were really adorable. There's one little girl who was exceptionally cute. I hav to teach her how the station works and after clearing it she keeps tapping my hand asking me qns bout snakes (i was at the Australian Outback station so beside me was the snake & bearded dragon exhibit). I guessed she was quite unentertained by the snakes there so she asked me, 'y is the snake not crawling?'. Of cos i was laughing inside myself and i told her, 'cos the snake is too tired so they are sleeping now'. Well, even though kids nowadays are not like how we were last time, kids are and will always be kids, always innocent and naive (in a good way). Something to comment about today was tat parents keep on calling me 'uncle', wat the heck?
Something's been bothering me and is tat my camera is really stuck on the shelf for a really long time. I've been trying to sell for a week and all i can get are 'buyers' trying to slash price like nobodies business. They shd seriously jus fuck off. If they are not sincere in buying, then don't bother to ask me to cut price for them. It's like asking someone to sell you their working fine, good condition PSP at $50 when it could hav been sold for $200 or so. Argh! I really sick of them and other the other hand i can't wait to sell my camera off. I don't even feel like i shd buy a SLR anymore, mayb it's really time to quit photography, for good, once and for all.

A Great Day
It's another IPPT day but tis time round i got a better result as compared to the previous 4 times (even though i failed my SBJ, again again again again and again) so i actually felt quite good bout today's results. To comment on my shuttle run, i've improved by 0.5sec making me a 5 pointer! WOOT! Then again, my SBJ station was a total disaster, however the 'part-time' PTI there was really nice to impart me his training skills on how to improve my SBJ. Quite a interesting guy though :). Not forgetting, i saw lots of familiar faces today at Khatib camp.
So upon completing our static stations, Jing Xiang and i took our 2.4km run as our final station. The run wasn't really hard but the 'stitching' effect cos me to slow down quite alot, thus the bad result (tot i could had gotten a timing tat is below 12mins). The funny thing was tat Jing Xiang actually missed his Silver award by 1 sec!!! WAHAHAHAHAHA *evil laughz*. Kinda reminded me bout Wei Xiang's case in SSC, only thing was tat he gav up at the most crucial moment. According to Jing Xiang, he gav his best but it's still quite funny to see him so pek chek. Good thing is he will be joining me for IPPT again! Anyways, it's predestined tat since i couldn't pass my SBJ, ppl will need to follow me for IPPT, again again again again again again. The next time round will b 2 weeks from now, Jing Xiang will be trying out for Silver again, and hopefully i can pass my SBJ, provided if i follow the training lah. More legs exercise coming up! AND JING XIANG, I DIDN'T GET A "0" IN ANY SINGLE STATION WOR!
Went home after tat to prepare myself for dinner with my family. Mom suggested going to Blk 166 for "Zhu Chao" and the food there is great. Price is reasonable as well cos we ordered a super big plate of beehoon (i guess it's enough for 6 person's share) and 5 other side dishes and it only cost $48!!! Dad foot the bill though so i'll need to think hard on wat to get on mom's actual birthday. Only 1 picture to show as mom and dad said they were not wearing 'proper' clothings, so 'unglam' and refused to take picture. Saded.
My happy mood is still on, gonna SPREAD my love to everyone else around with kaya and butter! Yay! I still can't sell my camera, CAN ANYONE JUS BUY IT ALREADY?!
*Click on the picture for clearer view of our results (i've enlarged some of the results for better view, esp Jing Xiang's one, wahahahaha)

Good thing is he will be joining me for IPPT again! Anyways, it's predestined tat since i couldn't pass my SBJ, ppl will need to follow me for IPPT, again again again again again again. The next time round will b 2 weeks from now, Jing Xiang will be trying out for Silver again, and hopefully i can pass my SBJ, provided if i follow the training lah. More legs exercise coming up! AND JING XIANG, I DIDN'T GET A "0" IN ANY SINGLE STATION WOR!
Went home after tat to prepare myself for dinner with my family. Mom suggested going to Blk 166 for "Zhu Chao" and the food there is great. Price is reasonable as well cos we ordered a super big plate of beehoon (i guess it's enough for 6 person's share) and 5 other side dishes and it only cost $48!!! Dad foot the bill though so i'll need to think hard on wat to get on mom's actual birthday. Only 1 picture to show as mom and dad said they were not wearing 'proper' clothings, so 'unglam' and refused to take picture. Saded.My happy mood is still on, gonna SPREAD my love to everyone else around with kaya and butter! Yay! I still can't sell my camera, CAN ANYONE JUS BUY IT ALREADY?!

100th Post
Referring back to my very 1st entry (not exactly my very 1st since i've started blogging under diff blog names b4, but nevertheless...), it took almost 3 yrs for me to reach my 100th post, starting from the post-graduation entry till now when i've started working for almost 5 months, time really had flew past me just like...tat.
To start off, today started like any other when i go to revenue house, rotted there and waited for time to pass (i'm trying to perfect my art of making the ceiling crack by staring hard at them), time jus pass freaking slow when u hav nothing constructive to do (worst thing is i can't sleep during work). I almost died while doing some data entry tat was dedicated to me and i kept on dozing off and having these short mini-clips like dreams tat didn't hav any meaning behind them, they were like some entertaining 3 minutes video from youtube which i couldn't remember after i woke and start dozing off again. The cycle jus goes on and on until lunch.
Some things tat i hav to comment about a certain guy in our office (not to pin-point anyone though), he had BO and very serious dandruff problem. Things weren't tat bad when i wasn't paying attention to him but when he had to get close to me to explain something, tat's where the problem starts. There's a stench from him as if he haven't been showering for a few days and his dandruff problem made him like a snow cloud hovering towards me when he needs to come over to my desk to talk to me. Shall not elaborate much, it's up to ur creative imagination to picture the image. Bottomline is tat when he scratches his head, i will feel as though i will puke my intestines out any minute. Bad description? Tat's the best i can giv already...Wonders if he is oblivious about his problem or he jus don't care...?
So reaching wdls from work, i had to rush to the toilet to release all my Ribena and plain water combined out when i had been trying to hold them in my water bag for an hr or so. U might think it's funny y do i even bother to mention something like tis, it's becos it is related to the topic tat i'm going to bring up. I've notice tis 'strange' phenomenon tat there will always b ppl standing at the urinal supposedly looking as though they are peeing, but the weird thing was tat they will jus keep on standing there and holding onto their dick (not tat i had seen their dick lah, it's the way the position their hand, as if holding onto their 'precious') and not going off. I mean how can a person pee for like 5 mins? In conclusion, they are gay. Like wat my sis had mentioned b4, those who are standing beside u to 'pee', looking down at ur 'precious' and then smiles at u, means tat they are interested in having a sexual relationship with u (most likely a sausage feast). To agree, simply smiles back :). Gosh! + Gross!
To sum up for my 100th post, there are and will always b interesting things happening everyday, so jus take note and keep a lookout. Lastly, to reply to my previous blogs; Yes, i feel tat i've grown up, even though it may jus b an insignificant amount but it's still something. I've ORD-ed, gotten a job and a driving license. My temper, well, i supposed tat it is getting slightly better, even though i'm more towards angry nowadays compared to last time (3yrs back?) when i was kind and calm, haha. Things hav changed for better and worst. Friends had left/changed (overseas or out of my life) and more friends made. I am still the someone who enjoys peace and fun but tis time i will go out and do the things i enjoy rather than waiting for things to happen. Even though i still hates my job, i will continue to work until my contract is up and i know my resume wouldn't b beautified much by the stuff i'm doing now, it's for $$ since i choose not to study yet, bo bian.
p.s gotten news from kok seng saying tat marcus and i might not b able to return to Redhill for work due to some security issues. So we will either b stuck at our current place FOR-E-VER or thrown to somewhere else. Shall update next time when the verdict is out. T_T

Sentosa, a disappointing place
Hi all, it's been a looooooooooooooooooong time since i last posted something here. It's kinda weird tat i'm feeling really happy these few days, the kinda happiness as though from drugs; intoxicated. But i'm not having any drugs or such, no worries!
Jus a quick update (Twitter style);
19th June:
Made Benjamin nuke the whole of town with his Bitch-Fit due to some 'misunderstanding'. Managed to pacify him with B&Js (Ben's & Jerry's, not 'something' else). Watched "Blood" the horrible movie with no storyline and thinks tat the ang mo girl shd seriously jus die at the beginning of the movie since she only knows how to SCREAMMMMM and drive (any vehicle). Went home with peace and Benjamin claims tat he is not petty and emphasized on it. Tries to believe him. Slept at 2am and almost fell asleep while brushing. Went to bed and prepares for Sentosa in another few hours time.
20th June:
Woke up at 7.30am, almost died. Went out with mom for breakfast and had a wonderful morning with her chatting about anything under the sun. Realised tat i haven't been to the market for n months already. Set off to Sentosa with ai ren, lxh, lxj, zombie bay and nat. Visited most of the tourism spots there and the weather was FEAKING hot. Met a friendly tourist from Pakistan and took picture for him @ the merlion, told us tat his friend came yesterday (so in short he got pang seh-ed) tat's y he was in Sentosa alone. Beated zombie @ Luge. Went to dolphin lagoon and see alot of freaking inconsiderate ppl. Didn't mean to b racist but can't help it. Approached by a 'blind' woman and she asked me and Ai Ren if she can sit at the position where we were standing. I stupidly told her it's ok and asked her to go ahead. Realised tat i was stupid to giv tat kind of reply and shd hav said something like 'r u freaking blind? can't u see tat we are standing here?!'. Ai Ren commented tat it's like asking someone if he/she can sit at the seat where the person is sitting. Left Sentosa @ 4 and had Carl's Jr for lunch. Ai ren's face turned green cos he don't eat vegetables. Saw Sansoon and his gf at Carl's Jr. Watched Ai Ren finished his fish sandwich in pain (in my mini mind theatre). Forgot to bring PS CS4 for Ai Ren. Ai Ren left at around 5.30pm to meet his friends for dinner.
Went to Singapore Flyer, for the 4th time. Saw Siew Ling and gang. Realised and was shocked tat Li Hua had a baby when she is only almost as old as me. Took the shuttle bus from Singapore Flyer to Cityhall at 8.10pm. Went home with zombie while lxj and Nat went ahead to meet their friends respectively. Dropped at Khatib to return uncle his ASA cards. Went home with uncle. Reached home at around 9.30pm. Showered and played facebook for awhile. Still typing blog at 12.16am. Feeling shagged out. Going to sleep and prepares to go Jurong Bird Park in another few hours time. Blogging completed.

Bee Zee like a Bee
Seems to me tat 48hrs is always not enough for my weekends, when now i hav to juggle work, zoo docent programme, outings, ippt, family days and personal chilling time all into tat freaking 36hrs (now tat i can only sleep 6hrs for weekends, saded). I guess the only free time for me is tat 1hr b4 i hit the bed and sleep while waiting for my hair to dry...
As for today, i managed to squeezed 5 items into my tight schedule tat lasted me from 9 in the morning to 9.40 in the nite (tat is when i step out of my house and reach back home).
To start off, went to lab park with ai ren in the morning for some 'practice' photo shooting. It's really quite a mess to start with when we got off at the wrong stop after approx 1hr, so we try walking to lab park which is 2 stops b4 the one we alighted at. After walking 1 bus stop distance we decided to take a cab there as we were really lost in tat area. However, it didn't take long for the cab to bring us to our destination; cab fare = $3, imagine how close we were, dotz. Me and ai ren was like staring at each other, stunned. LOL. Anyways, we didn't stay there for too long when the sun almost made our skin looked like how plains will become when there is a drought. It wasn't the best time to take pictures also as it was bright daylight and jus reached afternoon back then.
After tat we headed down to suntec for the IT show. There actually nothing much to see (or rather we don't hav much money to spend on the things we wan). Weird thing is tat Nikon didn't participate in tis yr's IT show so i can't look at their 'latest' cameras. Haiz.
Rushed down to CDANS for bowling session with my aunts and cousins as planned last week. My scores wasn't really good as it went up and down like some out of control stock market. Haiz, my scores were 138, 117, 80+, 137, 110+ and 96. Guess tat the more i play the worst i get, or i jus got tired?
Next on the list was to get vaccination for influenza since it's one of the 'need' for the docent programme, dateline: TOMORROW. When i go back from CDANS it was already 8.30pm, clinic below my house didn't open so i tried the one at the market. Clinic at the market was open but they ran out of the vaccine so the receptionist recommended me to go to the clinic behind the Hindu temple which is around 1km away so i had to run there, shagged. Bad thing was the 3 clinics WERE CLOSED. I almost gav up when i saw tat there's another clinic tat's open somewhere nearby and i tot i shd try my luck. Good thing was tat the clinic actually still had 1 last shot for me, thank you guan ying ma! lol. But the shot was $32 which is jus freaking ex. In time of crisis huh?
Finally and lastly, i rushed to Shing Shiong to get some groceries for tis sunday's picnic at ecp, hopefully when i come back on sunday i'll hav time to prepare and toast them.

1st day training for Docent programme...
Jus some updates for my docent training today. Training for today was mainly about the operations and managements of the zoo, everything was so dry, jus like attending some biz lecture. Yawnz...
The intake for tis yr's docent programme is 70 pax, however the turnups for today was 74. Didn't expect such a high attendance though. I am being put in tis group call the "Silver Otters". Initially there was tis guy who was in my group but after like 1hr later he realised tat he was in the wrong group so leaving me being the only guy in the group, so weird. As usual, me being shy and stuff like tat i didn't really tok much but luckily there's tis auntie (30+ yrs old lady though, i guess it's appropriate to call her tat ba?) with endless conservation topics to talk about so tat kinda killed the quietness between me and the grp.
Damn bad thing tat happened to me was tat the contact lens on my left eye got too dry for some reason and got my eye really irritated so i took it off after lunch, which makes me a half-blinded man. Saded. After lunch they took us for a tour in the zoo's restricted areas, our group got picked to go to the vet clinic. Well, i'll say it's really a once-in-a-lifetime experience as no visitors are allowed to go to the clinic. It jus look exactly the same as wat zoos in other countries offers. Basically they hav 4 parts to the zoo; the lab to examine the fecal samples of the animals, the surgery room for emergency & non-emergency cases and the X-ray room, the "wards" which actually is a place where they placed cages for animals to recuperate in peace and lastly the post-mortem where the dead animals will b examined for their caused of death. The zoo staff who brought us around told us tat there will actually b at least 1 animal to die everyday though. Anyways we were also given the chance to look inside the freezer room where they kept their dead animals, saw some dead sea turtles though and they pretty much looked like they were alive, jus frozen...
Well, camp will be next saturday. It shd b fun since the docents told us tat the zoo will look very different at nite and there will b a nite walk, so we shall see wat's in store for us. Oh ya, not forgetting a free boat ride tat i didn't take last week, cool!

Love hate?
Hating someone is jus so much more tiring than being loving. What's the point? So tired, don't wanna think bout it anymore.
So wat comes after revenge?

Richer by today, poor by every single minute
Yay, my pay came in today at 0000 and suddenly i felt alittle richer. TIME TO...SAVE UP! However i guess it will be quite hard for me since papa's day, mom's b'day, jotay's b'day and IT fair falls on tis month. Haiz...
Updates for wat i've done today. Well, as following wat my bz schedule had for me (i'm really packed for the weekends for tis month! bzbzbzbzbzbzbz), went out with ai ren and his friend coreen to the photographer seminar tat we've signed up for a month ago. Before tat, i've opened an OUB account for the sake of the debit card they offers, purely for the privileges and discounts tat i can get. While pondering whether to get the "NOW" card or the gold card, the person serving kinda gav me the impression tat i'm wasting her time while deciding which one to get even though she didn't show it on her face, mayb it's me jus being too paranoid? Anyways i've gotten the gold card lah since they offered 2yrs of fee waiver whereas the "NOW" card only offered 1yr. Good thing bout both cards is tat they share the same amount of privileges i can get, additional feature tat the "NOW" card has it tat it can b used as an EZ-link (Bad thing bout it is tat if u lose the card, u lose ur EZ-link AND ur debit card.
So back to the seminar, we were given goodies bag when we registered for our attendance, don't ask me wat's inside though (jus some usable stuffs & something to eat) but since it's free, it's better than nothing. I guess wat's the most beneficial thing i had learnt there was the talk on photoshop, even though it's only 1hr short and touches only on colours adjustments and sharpening of images. I mean since it's free i don't suppose they will impart 1 whole "Photoshop for Dummies" worth of knowledge to us, haha.
The long waited Docent programme is tml, wonders how it will be like...? The $50 tat i'll need to pay is only for the course materials, MEALS NOT PROVIDED, THX. More updates coming up tml...

Wrathly get the idea
Disclaimer: I'm so fucking pissed and to avoid the 'F' word from appearing all over the entry, i've decided to substitute it with 'freak', 'freaking', etc. U get the idea.
First of all, tis thing happened bout 2 weeks ago and i didn't realise it until yesterday, freak! The story goes like tis, mom invited my aunts to come over to our house to make dumplings for the Dumpling Festival. It was on a tuesday tat day. Tis is the first time they didn't make dumplings at gramdma's house and reason is simple, they wanted some peace while doing their things and not having the need to see tat bitch's freaking face. What i didn't expect is tat the bitch actually came to our house tat day, bringing her precious little destroyer along. ARGH!
FREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so gonna freaking smash her freaking face into mince meat and throw her into the sea, i doubt there would b any living organism wanting to feed on her as well cos she jus freaking stinks!
Things didn't look like wat they were supposed to hav been like when i got home. Then mom told me she accidentally knocked down my bomberman models and my figurine while sweeping. At 1st i was amazed by how much force she could had used to sweep the floor and 'accidentally' knock my stuff over. However after scrutinising the debris, i realised tat it couldn't had been knocked over, it seemed like someone deliberately dismembered my toys. After getting the truth from mom, i was still able to accept it cos i supposed it's inevitable for kids to get attracted by toys and will wanna play with them (or dismember them).
So, i wasn't free until yesterday when i finally had the time to fix everything back. Tat was then when i found out tat 2 of the figurines were gone! Tat really did it, i was so freaking pissed and angry tat i can't believe tat the freaking bitch actually let her precious destroyer bring my stuff back WITHOUT MY FREAKING CONSENT. Mom told me she didn't know anything about it but i don't really believe her. Seriously, WAT IS WRONG WITH TAT FREAKING BITCH?! Wat happens when i go to her FREAKING house and take money out from her FREAKING wallet and not telling her? It makes no sense seriously, wat she did isn't any different from stealing from others. You might think tat it's jus toys, ya, they are jus toys, but it's a principle issue. I know kids are innocent and they freaking know nothing, but as an adult, as a mom, isn't tat her responsiblity to educate her child the right values? Or izzit becos she doesn't hav them to begin with? Or izzit she wanted her child to b the world greatest thief in the whole wide world? FREAK HER!!! Thing was tat she had damn lot of ways and freaking lot of chances to tell me and i went up to grandma's house to pass her something, when i went up to grandma's house for dinner, BUT SHE DIDN'T!!!
It's jus not worth getting my BP high for her, FREAKING BITCH! Argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First of all, tis thing happened bout 2 weeks ago and i didn't realise it until yesterday, freak! The story goes like tis, mom invited my aunts to come over to our house to make dumplings for the Dumpling Festival. It was on a tuesday tat day. Tis is the first time they didn't make dumplings at gramdma's house and reason is simple, they wanted some peace while doing their things and not having the need to see tat bitch's freaking face. What i didn't expect is tat the bitch actually came to our house tat day, bringing her precious little destroyer along. ARGH!
FREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so gonna freaking smash her freaking face into mince meat and throw her into the sea, i doubt there would b any living organism wanting to feed on her as well cos she jus freaking stinks!
Things didn't look like wat they were supposed to hav been like when i got home. Then mom told me she accidentally knocked down my bomberman models and my figurine while sweeping. At 1st i was amazed by how much force she could had used to sweep the floor and 'accidentally' knock my stuff over. However after scrutinising the debris, i realised tat it couldn't had been knocked over, it seemed like someone deliberately dismembered my toys. After getting the truth from mom, i was still able to accept it cos i supposed it's inevitable for kids to get attracted by toys and will wanna play with them (or dismember them).
So, i wasn't free until yesterday when i finally had the time to fix everything back. Tat was then when i found out tat 2 of the figurines were gone! Tat really did it, i was so freaking pissed and angry tat i can't believe tat the freaking bitch actually let her precious destroyer bring my stuff back WITHOUT MY FREAKING CONSENT. Mom told me she didn't know anything about it but i don't really believe her. Seriously, WAT IS WRONG WITH TAT FREAKING BITCH?! Wat happens when i go to her FREAKING house and take money out from her FREAKING wallet and not telling her? It makes no sense seriously, wat she did isn't any different from stealing from others. You might think tat it's jus toys, ya, they are jus toys, but it's a principle issue. I know kids are innocent and they freaking know nothing, but as an adult, as a mom, isn't tat her responsiblity to educate her child the right values? Or izzit becos she doesn't hav them to begin with? Or izzit she wanted her child to b the world greatest thief in the whole wide world? FREAK HER!!! Thing was tat she had damn lot of ways and freaking lot of chances to tell me and i went up to grandma's house to pass her something, when i went up to grandma's house for dinner, BUT SHE DIDN'T!!!
It's jus not worth getting my BP high for her, FREAKING BITCH! Argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

S.T.M
I suppose tis is my last entry for tis month. Weekends could never been better like tis after i started working. I feeling so rejuvenated after taking a long weekend. Best of all i had B&J's strawberry cheesecake icecream today, it jus makes me hungry while thinking of it, haha.
So to start off, went to the zoo with Ben and Jing Xiang. Well, it's kinda bcos i had another agenda to fulfill as well in the evening at around the zoo area, which is to get interviewed for being a docent (pronounced as "dor-cen" by the volunteers there, wonder if it's the right pronouciation?).
Originally i'm only suppose to hav one card to use since Choon Yew wanted to use it for today but cancelled last min so i tot i might as well redeem 6 tix using the cards and giv it to some kind random strangers. While queuing for the tix, there were a family of 4 behind us and we gav them 2 of the adults tix to them as suggested by Ben. Thing is tat kids can't use the adult tix so we had one extra tix left. While looking for the suitable candidate to giv out the tix, Jing Xiang spotted tis ang mo and his SPG gf. Ben was doing all the talking while trying to giv out the tix. It's jus quite an exp to see how a bimbotic and bitchy the SPG can be. It's like...OMG!!! I mean it's really quite an exp, lol!
It's really kinda rush for me though while in the zoo as i had to reach the interview place by 4.30 and it was around 1.30 when we gotten the tix. Based on my exp, 1 round around the zoo will take around 4hrs, inclusive of all the picture taking (depending on how cam-whoreish the person/grp is/are) and mayb some side tracks like taking breaks, having snacks and animal shows. Sad thing was tat i couldn't get to see all of the animals when i had to rush off for my interview. I disappointed with my answers during the interview though since i don't think i performed well. It's like i keep forgetting things tat i could hav used, could hav told them during the interview. Wat's with my STM? I can understand from their point-of-view tat they need people who can speak and handle situation well to 'protect' the image of the zoo so they hav to be strict during the interview. What i can do now is jus wait, wait for the answer to see if i get to hav the once-in-a-lifetime chance to work alongside with animals even though the animal contacts might b quite minimal (more of PR skills, again).
p.s SPG = Bimbotic, avoid SPG at all cost and any unnecessary close contacts!

Weekend Extended, Extra Longwinded
Due to some hiccups from the company, Marcus and I are now labeled as security-clearance-not-cleared. Got send back home on tuesday afternoon since we can no longer work in redhill for until we r cleared again.
The story is kinda complicated but i hope u guys can catch up with it;
it was jus another normal b-z day on tuesday and i was as usual somewhere in the building helping some user to replace ther PC when Marcus sms me telling me tat we are not cleared. Feeling puzzled so i asked for more details, Marcus told me tat becos we are employed under the agency (it's like we are employed by the agency then being outsource to NCS then deployed to DSTA), they only clear NCS to allow employees to work in Redhill but not our agency, yet. After tat due to security reasons, we can't stay in our workplace thus got send home (free 1/2 day for us :P). Bottom line, we hav to wait for our agency to be cleared 1st before we can resume work at Redhill.
We were told to go back hub on wed since we don't hav anywhere else to go. Thing is, there's nothing to do at hub also. I was prepared though, took it as a chance to finish my "Breaking Dawn". Since Vincent (the 3 months contract temp stuff) and Marcus didn't prepare themselves for the 'worst', they were bored almost to tears. Marcus even commented tat we might see him on the newspaper the next day with headline "Boy bored to death", lol. Went to AMK hub for lunch and we spend like 2hrs outside, i almost forgot i was still working though. Good thing about spendin so much time at AMK hub was tat i finally gotten the book i can't buy at regular popular stores; "Da Vinci's Code" by Dan Brown and it's only $5. Gotten tat at the popular roadshow but it looked as though they were selling the book tat came from local library, condition wasn't tat good but still readable lah.
Supposed to go on a forced leave today and tml but after talking to CT he gav us 1 day of off instead so tat we can keep our leave for future use. Fact is tat we only hav 12 days of leave even though we are working for a year, 2 days lesser than normal staffs. Good thing though, it's really a chance to take a break for awhile.
However, going on leave isn't really a good thing though. I had spent too much money today, haha. So let's see, gotten me-self a box of contacts from Yishun (since my free supplies from Ben's uncle ran out already), bought 3 tix for "Terminator: Salvation" (ARSE-ta-la Vista Baby!) for tis sat (family movie outing, sis will b working so left her out, haha, oh ya forgot to add tat my mom is paying for it, mus giv credit to her too) and rented DVDs from MJ jus in case i hav too much time in hand tml (Gotten myself "The Tale of Despereaux" (games included, how cute), "The Haunting of..." can't remember who and "Mamma Mia").
Anyways the person-in-charge for the Docent programme contacted me (thru email) and told me to go for an interview tis saturday. Wonder how it will be like?
As quote:
"Hi Jin Xiang
Thank you for your interest in the WRS Docent programme.
I have reviewed your application and would like to invite you for an
informal interview on 30 May, 4.30pm at the Zoo Corporate Office.
Do let me know if this date and time is fine.

p.s I think i can write a very good book out of my boring life already, i'm so longwinded, haha, BUT it will be full of spelling and grammer mistakes, mostly top off with the lack of vocab, rite Eugene (if u r reading tat is, haha)?

Yayness for weekends!
Can't believe how slow the weekdays had crawled to finally make it to weekend. It's jus so not enough for weekends to have only 48hours, how come it's not the other way round?! T_TI started off the day with only 8hours of sleep (could had been more) since i slept at 1 or 2 in the morning (strictly speaking today, not yesterday). Saturdays are usually my busiest day of the weekend since i will hav millions of things to do or rather millions of friends to jio me out (kidding, i know i sounded like benjamin, but i'm not him!). Went out with aaron in the morning to Admirty park yet again but tis time with our zoom lens though.
By the time i reach Admirty park, there were already like 4 or 5 slr owners walking around either jus getting started or getting started to leave. Not forgetting to mention, i accidentally dropped my 50mm when i took out my slr from the cam bag, SIANZZZ!!! Luckily it's still working fine though.For once (out of the 2 times :P) i felt tat Admirty park was like overcrowded; there were so many photographers around and RP organised tis race event around tat area as well so there were lots of students running and cycling around, not forgetting more photographers for tis event. It's jus cramped up...
Weather wasn't good in the morning (was like extreme desert hot 1 hr ago and stormy rain after tat), so we had to leave early, didn't hav the chance to enter the mangrove area, saded.
Went home, took a power nap (without showerin >:P) and prepare for ippt yet again again (showered before going out, no worries). Well, same old results, passed everything except for tat damn sbj, it jus got worst and worst. The clerk told me, i can opt for partial pass if i don't care bout the money since i jus hav to clear my sbj within 3 months (and i don't hav to worry for until next yr), quite a good deal though but i still went ahead doing all of the stations, taking it as a chance to exercise also, haha. Shall hav a good rest tml, DND (Do Not Disturb)! -_- zzzZZZ
p.s People, pls don't feed Aaron when he is within Admirty park, u will get fined for it!

Wat am i doing?
It's now 8.25pm and i'm still at my workplace, didn't hav OT today but hav to wait for 9pm so i can claim for my cab fare.
Got tied down becos of some hiccups tat i hav to handle due to the fact tat i actually missed out tat the user's old PC actually had got 2 hard disk. Didn't manage to transfer his stuff over to the new pc until 7.20pm. If i take bus from here now it will jus take me another 1.5hrs to get home so might as well take a cab back.
Wat to do? Feeling so tired mentally.

Misery Loves Company
People always say tat 祸不单行, how true can tat b?
Solution? Taking one step at a time i guess?

Stressed vs Dessert
There's a saying tat the only cure for stress is dessert. I guess it's jus so true since i'm still having the sugar rush effect after eating the white fungus longan dessert from Crystal Jade with my batch boy and the so-call 2nd link, lol. Other than the longan dessert, the company tonite was another sweet dessert tat keeps my blood sugar high. Seems like i've recovered from the depression i got from work, for the time being tat is. More OTs to come but hack it, shall find nite activities to keep me b-z and keep me away from OTs. Wonder if CCs or Safra hav badminton classes at nite?
Well, Angels & Demons was actually quite nice even though i don't really understand wat's the whole msg tat they are trying to drive at until jotay explains everything to me after the entire show. Kinda like listening to jap songs when u don't understand the lyrics. The show went to it's climax jus after like 5 to 10mins after it starts till the end. The bad thing was tat the background music makes my bladder 'trembles with excitement' as well, so i can't really enjoy the movie when it was left with like 20mins or so.
Went to take picture with the statue with the Angels & Demons statue but was told tat we are not allowed to. However we 'tested the system' by asking some china girl to take a group pic for us. By the time Ben handed her his cam, she jus keep on laughing and we stood there, posed for a long time, waiting for her to stop laughing so tat we can finally get away before the cathay staff manning the ticket booth chase us away. It's jus damn weird as we don't find anything funny at all, i guess we were all having the 'diaoz' feelin while watching her and waiting for her to take picture for us.
Had a great nite (not day though since i'm was doing my unpaid OT back then), and time jus passed so fast. Another 24hrs or so and i'll b working again, with OT till probably 9pm, yet again, sianz!

Fly me to the moon
"U will only need to work OT like only once per month at most." I guess tat's wat "Once in a blue moon" means, supposedly?It's only about 2months in redhill and i'm getting more and more sick of it. The 'pain' is worst than how i felt during my SSC period. When u enjoy wat u r doing, working will not b a job, likewise when u hate ur job it became a chore tat u hav to endure every single day. In case u might b wondering, how come i hate tis job so much esp when i choose to work as wat i'm supposed to work as, it's because other than doing mild PR and setting up of PCs, i'm generally doing wat a factory boy is doing. I can't learn anything much other than helping users setting up their machines; taking out cables, connecting them, etc. Mayb it's still too early to judge tis job yet? I don't even know wat i wan now...
Day by day, week by week i've been trying to deceive myself tat i still hold some interest in I.T related job but it jus doesn't work out. After the contract ends i will definitely NOT continuing no matter wat. Seriously can't wait for febrary next yr to come so i can ORD from tis job. And to those who thinks tat i had actually made a smart move by working 1st so tat i can gain some exp, think again. It doesn't matter anymore even if next time i can't b as successful as others, i jus wan a stable income and a job tat makes me happy, not a chore tat wears me down every single day.
Mayb it's the pile up of all the lack of sleep, mayb it's the job, who cares? I can't even think straight anymore, argh!

Happy Mother's Day (Late Entry)
It's amazing how fast we grow up, not forgetting how fast our parents actually grow older each year without much realization. As Asians, we don't normally express our love out loud, rather we express it in different other forms; like a simple meal my mom will cook for our family, like how she will call and ask for our location when we are not back at late night, constant reminder of telling us to go to bed so tat we won't oversleep the next day, etc.The day before Mother's day, i went to the flower shop to get some flowers for my mom; gotten 2 stalks of carnations and a stalk of rose, she jus loves flowers. When i got home, even though she commented tat i shdn't waste money on flowers but i can see tat she was really happy to see flowers, haha. So to use the opportunity, i told her tat 2 stalks of carnations means "Mother" and the stalk of rose means "I Love You". It's really weird though and i wondered y i actually had the guts to say tat, surprisingly my mom told me it's ok when i asked her if it's too mushy. >:P
On sunday evening, we went to Zheng Fa Live Seafood Hotpot to celebrate Mother's Day. We were issued a 'coupon' together with the receipt when we paid for our bills and the 'coupon' was to exchange for prawns and crabs according to the number of people at the table. Wat i didn't know was tat the prawns were alive, ALIVE AND JUMPING!!! I supposed tat's how they got their name "Live Seafood". Damn scary and it's really cruel to throw living things into the hotpot when they are still alive, after tat watching them being boiled to death. Haiz. Tat was so inhumane... T_T
Well, had been b-z lately and really lazy actually to update my blog, hopefully will hav something 'interesting' to update again.
p.s SAF insect repellent rox! Right aaron? Hehe

3rd time's the charm? Guess Not...
The lazy bug is attacking me again, feeling so "nua" to update my blog already. Anyways, 15 more to my 100th post >:)
I'VE PASSED MY IPPT (if u count tat by my total score...)!!! I jus can't seem to clear my SBJ, NO MATTER WAT. Even though the PTI gav me 4 chances to jump (or rather unlimited tries if i can jus pass), i jus can't seem to jump to the 216cm mark. It's jus so irritating. FYI, D10 for a minimum pass and D15 for a pass with $100 incentive. For those who don't understand wat is D10 & etc, it's the scores u need to get, ie E=1, D=2, C=3, B=4, A=5 for IPPT. Tug jump regimes here i come...
Yay, gotten a D80 kit lens today so tat means i can sell away mine. It's kinda considered as a upgrade for $50 as i've gotten a buyer to get my 18-70mm, can't get to make him pay for a higer price though, saded. Hopefully he/she really buys from me tml and not like any other bad buyers who will jus 'pang seh' ppl.
Show me the money baby!

Perfect cut
While i'm pondering hard on the possibilities my life can turn out to be, i came across tis issue on my mine. Is there really anyone tat is cut out to be perfect for something or is it tat those people jus happen to put in extra effort to work towards their goal, and since it's their interest thus making themselves e-zier to cope and stand out eventually.
For me, i'm always interested with animals and hav hoped to become a biologist someday. Well, it's a far-fetched dream but nevertheless hoping tat tis dream can somehow b fulfilled.
Day after day as people grow, some lost their way and became another person. Like wat the cliché suggests; humans grow to adapt to their environment fast. Once someone deems tat a certain way of living suits him/herself the best, they will jus live with it and not looking back. Even if it might be the best way to live their lives, will they b happy? To me, the best possible heartfelt bliss comes in the simplest form; contentment. Be contented and you will eventually find happiness. Cos life goes on whether or not you r happy or sad, angry or disappointed.
We look back to look at things tat we've missed out in lives and we look forward to anticipate the best and the worst tat might b coming in the future. People always missed out things but do they really look forward to fulfill them once again? I guess it's no point regretting on things tat u didn't do but rather not regretting on things tat r done, even if they are bad decisions.
Another day, another night, wat's going to happen after my contract is over? Stay tuned!

Routine
Yet another week, another month is coming to an end. Day by day my life got so routine after i've become a working adult. No life, no time and not enough sleep. Haha.
The very much anticipated backpacking trip to Darwin was cancelled prematurely due to zijun's exam being scheduled unintentionally closed to the supposed departure date. Saded. Even though he suggested we could go in October, it's not the best time to go Australia since it will be wet, humid and mayb rainy since it's jus after their no-snow winter. Next time ba, if there is a chance...
Mom & dad, will b going to China in June, together with sis, who will b going to Taiwan with her canoe friends, leaving me all alone in SG. Well, will need to plan out something fast to prevent myself from being bored to death. I really need a holiday soon sia. Of cos, not trying to do things tat i hate but find new things tat i haven't do before or something enriching? Might sign up for night class in CC for jap lessons soon, if they provide the course tat is.
Feeling so tired lately and i seriously don't hav the mood to think about other things for the time being. Time to go jog again soon, somehow i feel as though i'm being able to run away from all my troubles, at least for tat 17 to 18minutes.
I still wonder y am i so bothered. Sianz.

Failure
Ahhhhhhhhh~ Failed my IPPT again, but tis time is becos of me being unwell; gastric or wateva u call it.
It's really annoying to hav so many 'illness' attacking my body at the same time. I won't call donating blood a illness but it really saps most of my energy for the rest of the 3 days after doing tat. Then comes along eye irritation on monday which left my eye itch for the whole of monday. Lastly on friday, the stomach pain thingy and hopefully it's really the last 'sickness' tat will attack my immune system.
I still can't pass my SBJ T_T.
It's really annoying to hav so many 'illness' attacking my body at the same time. I won't call donating blood a illness but it really saps most of my energy for the rest of the 3 days after doing tat.

My BIG day
It's not my wedding though, haha. Well, i've finally DONATED BLOOD FOR MY FIRST TIME!!!
I had already planned to donate my blood since March since i tot tat it's really meaningful to do tat and it won't kill me if i really do. For the entire time i don't even dare to look at my arm where the blood donation assistant poked me with needle. The embarrassing thing was i was looking as if in pain not knowing the blood was already flowing into the bag since i tot tat the assistant was still poking me, and she had to tell me tat the process had started.
So after the whole thing, the assistant realised tat i was taking picture with my hp cam and she suggested i could hold my bag of blood and take picture with it, but i declined since it's quite i tot tat i might b quite funny to do tat (although i did think of doin it). I was supposed to take out the bandage after 2 hours but i took it off right after i reach home and my 'hole' was still bleeding, kinda scary. I STILL CAN'T GET OVER THE FEAR OF BLOOD T_T.
Went to admirty park with Aaron to take some photos there and it's really fun though. It was scorching hot and i tot tat my skin almost dry up and start peelin off by itself. It wasn't really long when someone by the name of wilson came and join us. We took photos together for awhile and it's not long when we covered most of the 'interesting' places around. Anyways, he had to catch the bus when he was leaving so we didn't get to exchange contact. Wat a pity, >:P
Haiz, so many things to do yet so little time...

B'lated Gathering
It's been almost 4 months since i last saw my batch boys after our holiday trip for Benjamin and after christmas for Joseph mak, approx 2 months since i last saw Joseph and Jing Xiang after the rockclimbing at safra. It's a good thing to meetup, esp when i'm not tat financially broke, but i'm still quite broke lah.
So we went to cartel for a lunch and as claimed by everyone, it's the 3rd time they had been there for b'day/belated b'day 'celebration'. The ribs didn't taste as good as i used to tot, mayb my taste bud wasn't working well at tat moment, haha.
Following up was movie session with all the 'rubbish people' and we watched "School days with a pig". It's not particularly a blockbuster but it was still a good movie tat will leave the audience think, at least me though.
When the little girl asked her teacher, "Who/What determine the length of life?", i answered from my heart, "The one who owns it". However i'm wrong. Being at the lower part of the food chain as a pig, they don't really hav the chance to decide how long they can live (unless disease or illness claims them). There are also things tat were quite unrealistic in singapore like how the principal supported the teacher's idea of keeping the pigs and defending him in front of the parents. In singapore i guess if the same thing happens (it won't, so don't worry too much), principals of schools will either (a)Expel the teacher, (b)Expel the teacher or (c)Expel the teacher.
Anyways, botak jones is damn salty and big and scary...

IPPT Saturday(s)
My day didn't start off well as i didn't hav a complete minimum 7hrs of sleep before having a vigorous exercise tat's coming up in the evening.
To start off, i woke up feeling disorientated and feeling tat bad thing is going to happen soon, haha. When i was having breakfast, i found a black lump about the size of a 5 cents coin stuck at the corner of a slice of bread while i'm spreading it with butter. It really turns me off and i almost didn't hav breakfast b'cos of it. Then i took photos of it and cut it out leaving it in a plastic bag and freeze it (tis is wat they meant by retaining the evident) so i can 'feedback' to the bread company.
Had honeystars with milk in the noon to prep myself for the upcoming IPPT, tis is to make sure i hav enough energy to burn :).
Taking IPPT as a NSman is quite an experience. Everything is so high tech tat makes me feel so awed, everything is OTOT where u don't hav to worry bout cheating or unfairness. For instance, shuttle-run station will start the timer once u pass thru their gantry (where the sensors will b at) and u hav to tap on the metal strip on the ground as if u are taking items from the end point, touch the strip at the starting point as if u r placing them down. Sit-ups and Chin-up stations are equipped with digital voice announcer to tell u how many u hav done for tat station. SBJ equipped with sensors also but they only allow 2 tries. Lastly the interesting part about 2.4km is tat they had adopted the ERP gantry idea, so everytime u run pass the gantry, ur completed lap will b recorded down, it's also recorded individually for the fairness of everyone.
The moment to unveil my result... I failed... T_T. It's really quite disappointing though when i thought the trainings i did is enough, seems like it's not. I didn't hav the correct technic for shuttle-run, my fat tummy makes my sit-up feels as though i'm giving birth, i can only get 212cm for my SBJ which sadly means i need extra training for tat (technic again in tis case i supposed), chin-up wasn't a problem so fret not and lastly 2.4km which i choose to giv up with Ming Hui as it was raining the whole evening (cat 1 till 1800 when we had completed the 4 static stations by 4+pm). I supposed running isn't a problem for me also but since it kept on raining and we had both failed SBJ, we decided to come again next time. Hopefully we can pass by then. Haiz...
Soon Saturdays will b my IPPT day...till the day i pass tat is...

My Public Holiday
(Entry for yesterday)
Another year has come and coincidentally my b'day falls on Good Friday yet again, so everyone gets a day off from my b'day, kinda?
The Ubin trip was cancelled the day before our embarkment so tat leaves 1/2 of my friday free with nothing to do other than playing the lifeless restaurant city on facebook, haha. Luckily there's a movie session at nite, if not i will truely hav a stay-home-do-nothing b'day tis year.
I hav to pass something to jafar at 4.30 and since i'm supposed to meet the guys at bugis at around 5.30p.m (usually i will go out 1hr before the meeting time so i won't b late.), so it's jus nice for me as i can pass my portable speaker to him and take the train without being late. However he was 20mins late, sianz, so by the time he arrived i was very late already. I was really pissed by the fact tat i've already told him not to b late few hours ago but he still did. When he arrived, he handled me a b'day present so for tat part i think he's forgiven, haha.
So we went to watch "Shinjuku Incident" at the new cinema (Filmgarde) at bugis, the ticket was only $6, and it's bought thru internet bookin! The movie wasn't really outstanding but still watchable i guess. After tat i suggested to go budget so we went to food junction for dinner, the food wasn't tat bad and they ordered steamboat for 2 (it's food court style so don't expect much, haha) and lots of side dish, it's really very worth the money. Had desserts at NYDC but i only ordered a single scoop though cos i'm afraid tat they will pay for me (which they really did and b'cos i'm really quite bloated at tat point of time also).
After tat jin hao drove us home and we ended up lost as edgar couldn't recognise the road to his house when we left bugis. Well, my day ended like tat when i reached home at 12a.m. Although there's no big hoo-haa party or celebrations, i still enjoyed my time with them. Lastly, a big thx to all my friends who had wished me, esp Chye Kim and Ke Xin, i didn't expect you guys to remember tis day though, it really caught me off guard and left me with loads and loads of guiltiness. Thx to my mom for the mee sua and ang bao even though it's more likely to b the money i gav her on my payday. Thx to my sis for wishing me happy b'day on 12am 10 of April. Thx for all the love i've received, hehe. Love u guys, muakz! >:P

Bad Knee
Haven't been doing any vigorous exercise tat involve with my low part of my body for almost a week already (not sex, i'm a very innocent guy :), i'm referring to jogging ) due to my bad knee. It's not actually causing any pain but jus some discomfort. The feeling is as though the lower part of my leg is jus dangling onto the upper part of my leg, it's jus a 'loose' feeling with frequent discomfort caused by wat seems to b bones interacting with each other without the soft jelly between my knee.
3 more days to IPPT, hope my knee won't giv me any problem when tat day comes. Shall get my knee checked on monday after the IPPT since it will b more 'accurate' since it will b more battered. Haha T_T
Well, life's quite good in office these few days since we are still waiting to b cleared for Cat1, so it's FB and restaurant city all the way! >:P

My solo Saturday
It's 4th of April and 1 more week to my ippt. Lately my left knee seems to feel a little 'loose', hopefully it won't giv way or become a potential ligament problem.
Went to Vivo alone to watch "Detroit: Metal City" as wat i had planned. I guess it's a good thing tat i actually went out instead of cooping myself in the house. It might sound really pathetic to watch a comedy alone but i supposed it's something inevitable when everyone, or rather most people, doesn't wanna watch it. Watching movie alone, again, will soon become part of my life, jus like before in poly. Putting tat aside, the storyline was really nice, though there was a guy sitting beside me who consistently complaints to his gf about the main lead's action being extremely sissy. For god sake, it's jus a movie... -_-". The movie was about the main lead trying to fulfill his dream of being a pop singer ("trendy", as referred by them) but became a death metal lead singer instead by some twist of fate. Though he hated it but he stayed in the group called "DMC" aka "Detroit Metal City" for some reason. It's a light hearted movie (other than the death metal...) and i'm glad tat i actually did go and watch tis movie.
There was a runway show in Vivo today as well. I'm really awed with the performance even though i didn't stay there for very long. The models were displaying River Island clothings and watching it live was quite an experience. I'm awed by the number of photographers with slrs tat were present as well. They were almost covering the inner perimeter of the stage less the backstage area. Haha.
i guess tat being alone is the best for me now, as people around me don't seem to like respondin to me for some reason. Well, at least some did, i'll count tat as a form of consolation.
*shrugz and force out a helpless patronizing laugh*

Fool of April
To me, April is like a month of joy, fun and of course, mischief. Starting off the month with April fool's day where people get pranked on or them being the prankster themselves.
Well, i've always treated April as my month for a very simple reason even though i don't "celebrate" it like how i used to in the past. That day should b a special day when you celebrate with ur love ones, or should i say spend the day with ur love ones.
I was chatting with my sis a few days back and we found tat we had something in common, we can kinda count our friends using all the fingers tat grow on our palms (we had excess though where we don't need). "Friends" being defined as someone whom you will b comfortable to trash talk, to say out things u won't say in-front-of others (of cos not bitching about others!), to b able to b there for each other, etc. I mean it's not our fault to hav so little friends in our life, mayb we jus haven't meet them yet. People change and will jus walk in and out of ur life, it's perfectly normal and i guess it's inevitable as well jus like how i silently walk out of others life (those people i can't 'clique' with tat is).
What's coming up next in the few days time will b watching "Detroit: Metal City" alone (since everyone seem so reluctant to watch), my pay day, follow by a hopefully-not-so-disastrous ubin outing with parents and their friends :( and my IPPT, hopefully can get a silver though. Time to go Bugis to pray pray.
My month doesn't really seem like a really joyous month to me tis year though, wat's worst than spending my special day with strangers. Which reminded me about the fateful day few years ago when i was in poly, celebrating with some guy (he was invited by my classmate and i don't even remember his name now) i didn't invite and got to know for only a few hours, mayb? The feeling jus sux, plan foilers coming from everywhere to disrupt every single plan i've made. I don't even know which is right anymore, to make others happy and try to b blend in or jus make sure tat u are the only who will b enjoying urself. Felt so sick these days. Argh!
Of all the things i 'lied' about today, one thing tat is for sure and true is tat i really need a break, to leave tis place and find somewhere to cool off, to reflect upon myself and rethink the things tat i deemed as problems. After all, i'm an adult now and will b reaching middle age in another decade or so.
p.s of cos, even though i don't celebrate my b'day it doesn't mean i can't receive presents, haha, who would mind?
