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?!

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.

RUSH RUSH RUSH, BZBZBZBZBZBZBZ

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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
