These few days really has been very slacking..playing maple, going online surfing around and also playing my PS2 game - Need For Speed Most Wanted. It's really a very nice game, need for speed never fails to disappoint gamers with their series of games. These few days i slept very very late, around the region of 4am. Just when i was about to sleep, i can always hear sounds from the void deck, looking down, i could see worker (foreign worker) sweeping...I feel for them, being kilometre away from their hometown, yet have to wake up everyday so early, even though it's public holiday, they still have to sweep the floor, keeping our neighbourhood clean..

Recently i read >
XiaXue's and XueLing's blog, i really feel disappointed on how foreign workers are being seen by us, Singaporeans. XiaXue seems to be condemming all whereas XueLing is only against the bad and evil ones.

I admit there are foreign workers who cheated in Singapore, commiting crimes after crimes and going scot-free. But these are just miniority. Majority are still workers who stays commited to their job and only do what they are supposed to do. Me, having worked in a construction site before (for my poly attachment), i am sure i know more of these foreign workers than any other people who hasn't work with them before. My 2 months with them make me understand the kind of life they are in, how much they had to endure and give out before getting what is so little yet meant so much to them. I worked, getting 450 bucks per month and unexpectedly, they are getting the same pay as i am. For me, wearing the white helmet and them wearing the yellow one, yet getting the same pay. I feel very sorry for them. My job is just to learn about the construction process, walking around the site like a king, whereas they are the ones doing the job. I must say in the site, i learnt that the Chinese from China are much more rowdy then the Blanga. Many has this impression, very very bad impression against Blanga. Do you think if they were to dressed up like you, given the same education like you, they would not be as successful as you? Their character is the same as nice, if not nicer than some or most of us. One thing is for sure, they are alot more hardworking than quite a few of us Singaporeans.

For your info which confirm will shock you to read this sentence again, they are not supposed to spend more then 2 bucks a day. Cmon 2 bucks!!!!! Hey, just a look at XiaXue's hair, my slippers or anyone meal outside, it all cost more than 2 bucks, maybe even 5-20 bucks. They can't even spend more then 2 bucks a day!!! That's how they live, spending less than 2 bucks a day on three meals and if you do see the kind of quarters they live in, i'm sure u will feel sorry for them. Be glad that we even have a bed for they are sleeping on a mat, soaked with soil if it rains. A t-shirt can be wore for months without washing, can u imagine?

Well, i didn't say that will give them the excuse to commit crimes or do unrowdy stuff. Those who commit molest or even rape, i must say these foreign workers are just plain stupid. Not thinking of the consequences, they messed with the innocent girls, their future will be ruined if they do so. I just find these foreign workers very stupid. Stupid enough to travel to this country and instead of earning more money (they earn more money if they work overtime), or even resting, finding friends to talk with, they do silly things that might get them sent back to their own country. How dumb could this be.

I generally feel that most foreign workers deserve our respects and we should not treat them as second-class human beings. It's just the moniority of them that's under the catogary BAD, just like Singaporeans too. You'll never know whos' the bad one as they don't write the word 'bad' on their forehead. They still need respects from us. It's not easy to work in a country so far away from your house, not even to mention , getting stares and stupid comments from locals. Let's just hope these kind of situation will improve in Singapore..

Went to Don's house late last night..It was quite fun, we exchange gifts, play Games together and talk cock. 1st time i slept at Don's room. Haa, although the floor is hard, i still prefer cos it's kinda more cosy than the other room. Before we sleep, we drank one glass of vodka coke..That vodka coke was super concentrated. This mad guy can hold alcohol better than anyone else already..but please don't be an alcoholic. The funny part was, jon was drinking, he claims that its not strong. Two mouthful of that alcohol and his whole body turns red. Lying through his skin this time..haa! After drinking, we felt high. So i suppose we are going to drink more than what we drank last night this coming new year's eve. We are going to Mambo Jambo, an countdown event organised by Zouk.

We went PS (Plaza Singapura) to watch movie. Now i'm really started to ponder on what i said to my sis yesterday. PS is becoming my favourite hangout, not only for me but for my buddies as well. Went there almost every week. We went to watch Narnia today. It was a very nice movie - much much much better than i expected. I also thought i would see my sis there cos she said she will be watching that movie today. I wasn't really interested in this movie initially because of the actress and the preview, but i never regretted watching it.

This movie is about 4 siblings, who found their way out into another new world called Narnia through this wardrobe. From there, they discovered that they had to save Narnia as they were somehow forced top believe in the prophecy - at the same time, saving the younger brother who were on the bad side unknowingly. Eventually, it was the lion who make the sarcrifice, but survived in the end and fought a battle together with the siblings.

There were a few touching scenes..That makes this movie nicer..After movie, Don and Jon went for their dinner appointment, leaving me and Gav. So we went to play some pool. This time, the pool centre wasn't not so packed like yesterday..if only yesterday wasn't packed, then i can let sis play pool for the 1st time, i suppose it would be a ncie experience. And yay, i won 7-6! Hooray..i must say Gavian's improving. I must practice hard on my part too..After pool, we went for dinner and went to take bus.

When we were walking to the bus stop, we saw 190 turning instead of stopping at the usual bus stop, so i and gavian started wondering why is that so, miss around 1 bus, we find it weird so we went to the previous bus stop instead only to find out that 190 is doing a detour because there's christmas celebration closure somewhere at town i suppose. Went home with a tired body, mind..slept til 1am..Haa..ZzZzZ..Still feel so tired..Yawn..

Christmas is just a few hours away, yet i'm already spirited with the whole atmosphere in this festive season. My christmas party started off early..kicking off at Shu Xia house (My sec sch classmate) yesterday which is 23rd December.

Went to CCK mrt station control to gather 1st..slowly, one by one came and it's nice to see all my ex classmates again..the times we had together, often relived by some of us..haa..Yao Long, Edwin, Wen Jin etc..we went to get our christmas present 1st, so that we could have a christmas gift exchange later on..And so, we reached Shu Xia house..Starting off by chatting abit, then the food came..after eating, it's down to game time..we played a few interesting games..quite fun til past midnight, we started to exchange presents..there's some delay in exchanging because of the miscommunication..the gift exchange wasn't meant to be performed by lottery method but choose who u want to give instead, in the end, everything screwed up..nevertheless, we managed to solve this problem like we always does when we were in secondary sch for being the most "Notorious" express class in Sec 3/4.

After that, it starts to gets boring, watching Vcds was suggested go the 13 of us squeezed into this small room..Not cramp but cosy instead..Cool..so all started to get into their position and watched the 1st movie - SAW. A very very nice movie indeed, i regretted not watching SAW II..haa..nvm, i'll wait for the vcd to coem out. After SAW II, we wanted more, so we watched a comedy insetad, this time, 50 1st dates. Another nice movie, after this movie, most were already knocked out..it's 5 plus already..i fall asleep without knowing too..But couldn't sleep much as not used and there were too much talking going on and surprisingly, the "too much" talking was only done by one person - Gunalan. As always, he would talk talk talk..non stop and i guess the only person to fall for his 'Speech" is Mildred's sis who don't know much about him and even ask for his mobile number..OMg..Soon, sun rises and time for us to leave soon, before leaving, Yi Lin cooked us a bowl of noodles, it was delicious and i must say she can really cook..Went home with a swollen eye and when i reached home, it's around 9am already, i immeditately bathe and fall catch come sleep before going out with my sis..

12pm, alarm clock rang...woke up reluctantly. But i know i have to wake up..cos i'm going out with me sis!! Not everytime we can go out together cos both of us hardly have the time. So i started getting ready and off i go to meet her. When i met her, we started to exchange gifts. Well, she bought me this really nice sweater from Hong Kong which i like it very much. Thanks and nice of her to still remember me..heehee..Thanks Sis..Whereas on my part, i felt abit regretted when i bought her that eeyore bear bear, knowing that she would have a few already, i still buy, luckily she said she like it too and never had any similiar to the one i bought - PHEW..So we wanted to watch movie but in the end, no nice shows and most are already selling fast..so i suggested eating something. I list a few options and asked her to choose and my sis, being nice to me and sparing a thought for my wallet, chose Ajisen instead. Nice of her to think for me, i appreciate that but Sis, it's ok cos we seldom go out so it's only right that i treat u to somemthing u really like and never eat before.

So we went Ajisen and i ate this Volcano Ramen, looks spicy but actually it's not as spicy as it seems..After eating, i suggested playing pool. I wanted to teach sis and luckily she didn't say she don't want..so we went to Paradiz centre and in the end, all tables taken up and we left that place and back to PS again. Sorry Sis, next time if got chance, i'll teach u how to play. We went window shopping awhile and i treated her to ice-cream and off we went - home. Yawning a few times on the mrt..haa..i'm too tired..i need to go and sleep already.

Thanks for everything sis! I appreciate it..and hope u enjoy your day. Hope i didn't make u feel bored today..

Thanks to my ex classmates, making this gathering a fun one..hope we can more of that.

I'll be having another one soon, in a few hours time, i think i better catch some sleep now..yawn...ZzZZZ

My anger was simmered down by my beloved mum..Today Dad treated the whole family dinner..we were brought to Esplanade! Went to "No Signboard" Restaurant..The ambience was so-so but the food was quite nice, especially the vegetables. Haa, hard for an "anti" veggie person to praise the veggie, so you should have known how nice the veggie was. Scallop with baby kailan, chilli crab, white pepper crab, claypot tofu, fried sotong ball and the veggie (don't know what this dish is called) was ordered. Ate 3 bowl of rice..a sumptous dinner indeed. I noticed a girl keep on looking at the table i was sitting - a waitress. Maybe it's because of the "WILD" hair that i had due to the dyeing of it.

After dinner, i actually planned to go home, but my mum persuaded me to accompany the wholw family to walk. So i obliged. 1st time since don't know how many donkey years i went out with the whole family..Hmm..sounds like a bad son huh..yes i am..seldom at home, always go out..nevertheless, my parents still didn't complain and gave me the freedom that i want. Realising now that i should do my part to. Dad's birthday is coming, i wanted to buy something for him..hmm...i shall buy the same old thing i bought for him every year - he loves it. (Not going to say what is it)

Sis's coming home tml..Yay!! Finally..hmm..Saturday will be going out with her but then had no idea where to go and what to do, if anyone knows, please give some suggestions at the tagboard..Tml i'm going to have a class gathering cum party..Shall have fun tml! Can't wait..sun please rise up quickly!!

I got so inspired by two person Blog..Xue Ling's Blog and Xiaxue's Blog!! So much so that i am determined to enhance my blog..but still within my limits. I know i don't have the capability of making nice blogs nice them, however, i shall make my nicest blog. Got this skin for someone from the net and modified it myself. Gt to explore and browse more from the net and books to find way to make it more 'ROCK', Messy and er...nice? haa..i'll try my best..

Today got so irritated by those aunties. It seems like these Aunties are always dying to get seats, so much so that they hit and bang around just to drive their sticky and 'not-so strong' body through what they deem to be pile of easy obstruction form by polite and organised passangers to get to one seat. As if those seats has a $10 note on it. Omg! Kiasu Aunties will only make Singaporean more Kiasu for one Bus/Mrt ride will tells it all about us Singaporeans.

For once, bus fare is only of an mild amount, whereby most people could afford and yet within a few years, the fare increase so much so that it cause burden finiancially to some, even to me. Service is still the same and i don't see myself getting a more comfortable ride even i paid more then a few donkey years ago. Installing TV Mobile is a bad poor idea, fancy displaying it near each door, whereby the screen will always be blocked by some 'Big-Heads', within the video always lagging. oh..Sometimes i wonder what i am really pay for? For the comfort of me not needing to walk to my destination but yet get irritated by some irritating passengers?

Finally, i've finished the paper assignment given by my boss. I'm left with the book assignment. Rush it all til i drop dead..argh..come weekend come!!

Lonely Days are back...

The title of this post shall speaks for my feelings..hmm...sian, boring, lonely and feeling kinda sucky! Lonely days is here again..my died-hard buddies are all back to serving the nation - unwillingly..My nights will be boring..unless someone kind hearted soul is willing to chat with me til wee hours of the night..My days will be like day-dreaming..i just can't wait for weekends..Now weekends will be my best friends..come fast please!!

Finally my ears is not pain anymore. One more stud and i think it will take more than 2 weeks to recover for this newly pierced one is taking more than 1 week to heal. Poor Jon, he has to take out his piercing and replace it with a altered ear stick - one that he cut til very short by himself. I wanted to dye my hair too, but have yet to..don't when i should dye..when i feel like it bah..

Christmas and New Year's coming, i'm going get ready for the gift exchange party this sunday and the countdown..argh..can't wait..

Don, i believe u never do it..for this would never come out from your mouth..I'll be behind you for you are my best buddy..Fear not as we will go through this..I'll explain on your behalf and concentrate on whatever you are doing now..Wait eagerly for this holidays and rock and have fun!

Sis, hope you get well soon and do enjoy your last week in Hong Kong..hope you are having lotsa fun and come back soon...haa..can't wait

Tiring But Fun

Past week has really been very tiring for me..but indeed one of the best week i ever had..Last tuesday was the ENPEC camp which lasted from 6 Dec to 8 Dec which eventually extended all the way until 9 Dec because lotsa kids can't bear to leave the place..Finally my buddies Pass Out on 6 Dec and joined me in the evening for the camp. Although our job is to be a coach supervising and overlooking the whole event and kids, i feel that we are more like brothers and sisters to them. The whole event was fun but as i have to run about between school and work, it makes me exhausted. I felt tired, especially when night fall. The best part of the camp is when we were having soccer game with the kids at the park..it was fun, but unluckily, i somehow injure knee which was already injured. but the fun cures it all

On 8 Dec, i had my presentation..which went on very very smoothly which i never expected it cos i thought that with my tired and restless mind, i couldn't present well but luckily it turn out not to be so..as for the street soccer compeition later in the evening, it was a big disappointment. The last compeition that i can have in Singapore Polytechnic was just gone in 10 mins. 1st game was against my Junior..my team played hard but not well enough. I am very disappointed with myself for the performance i gave for i know i can do alot better than that. My stamina is deproving and i know something has to be done but can't.

The next day, my knee was more painful than ever. I went to sch with a tired body and mind and went home before school dismissed because i'm really too tired. On Saturday, i went to Gavian house and we jammed! Woohoo, i would say this time is the best jamming session because all of us were really into it, especially jon, i could see his efforts made weren't easy and although the results weren't that good, he already put his best and i really respect him for that. That very night, we went Clubbing!!! It's like the 1st time in so many months since we last clubbed together. It was very enjoyable and we saw lotsa pretty girls and pole dancing..some hot, some boring like sh!t..we went home and knocked out right after we showered..

Sis's at Hong Kong..What an envy..haa..she used to be the 1st person that came to my mind whenever i have problem but now she's at hong kong, i can't sms her much for i all it's very very enpensive to even send one sms. But i know she's always there for me, spiritually..Hope you enjoy yourself and i'll be waiting for u to come back..haa! Eat more Smelly beancurd!

During that week, i had some good and bad experience. I knew some of my friends more like Xue Ling. Besides that, i got to know fantastic people like Darren, Claire, Cindy and Jun Li. They were great people and fun to be with. However, i had a bad experience during the camp. Someone has been badmouthing me, and it's not just me but also my friends. How could we work together if she continue doing all this nonsense. I really feel like quitting my job but i can't for i have to finish what i'm doing. Til this day, i've totally seen through what kinda person, she can be a very nice person but at the same time, she can be the most 'poisonous' person on earth. Well, her bad points can't seem to overcome her good points..i'll see how it goes..meanwhile, i shall concentrate on my studies and wait for this saturday..YAY, going sentosa!!
