Wednesday

Hasn't been updating my blog regularly despite me still being so free. If u did read my previous post, u would have known that i went for the interview. I received a call from the agent informing me that i got shortlisted. I was over the clouds when i heard that. Can't wait to tell the news to my mum, and poor Don who was waiting for me at Funan IT Mall because i was following someone whom i know to a place where she say there's job opportunities. Well, stupid stuff aren't really worth mentioning but i still wanna say. I realised how stupid i am upon entering the company. The so called 1.5 million makeover company seems no different from any others. As the person brought me through the place, i realised it to be some sort of marketing company. Haiz..they even drag me to listen to a talk, but luckily, i managed to break free of that dumb place.

Rushed to Don and told him the news..as time pass, the fear in me grew. I'm afraid i couldn't meet the company expectations. The company is called United Overseas Bank (UOB). A big company needless to say. Just by the interview, i could see it's a totally new kind of job for me. One that i've never been to work before. Everyone was wearing so formal, it makes it stressful for me as i scared if i didn't do the job well, i'll be like so 'extra', they'll be hiring a useless bum. That apart, i'll try do my job well.

Went to watch 'Dorm' with Don. It was a Thailand horror show. Watching the show certainly bring some comfort to my mixed feelings at that point of time. The show brought out feelings. It makes me feel for the boy. I won't classified this movie under horror as it's all about a boy leaving his home to stay in a dorm. There he found a friend after which he realised is a ghost. He went miles to help his friend reborn as he could see his suffering for re-enacting the whole scene of how his friend died. He helped to the extent of even daring to sacrifricing his life. A rather touching movie i would say. How many of us could actually do that..it's difficult a choice. I give this movie a perfect 5.

After movie, it's down to MOS - Candy Floss Retro. I and Don went in near 10pm. Inside, there's nothing much. Everything has not started yet. So, we walked around and enjoy the music while waiting for more people to come in. There's this friendly female waiter who attended to us. Chatted with her and has a good impression of her. Her smile and charm just simply lives in my mind. Wahaha..maybe someday i go back there, i'll go look for her again. Candy floss retro was simply shiok. I and Don simply enjoyed ourselves. After that day, we realised the best time to go MOS on wednesday is at 12am. That's when people starts to fill the dance floor and simply dance! The best part of that night was around 1:30am. Rocky music started flooding the main arena and i and Don out of the suddenly, got high and dance. It's as if we were under drugs. The music change near 3am and aww, we was kinda disappointed. Not long after, the music starts to get more and more sucky.

Thursday

Went with Don to the job agency to sign the contract. I'm told to start work only on monday. What a relief. Phew..haa..and so, i went with Don to GuanYin Temple and i prayed there. To repay the god for getting me a job. Actually we planned to do lotsa things on that day, but we headed home instead and mapled!

Friday

I went to meet Don early to collect his new passport. Then we proceed to buy the ingredients as both of us will be cooking later in the evening. After buying all the ingredients, we headed to his house put the stuff and went to another shopping centre to get summore ingredient and food for our supper. Wahaha..what big eaters we are. After which we head back to his house again and relax and chill. Finally, it's time to cook

We started off by mixing ingredient for the chicken. We cooked two dishes that evening - Penang Char Kway Tiao and Shrimp Paste Chicken. We made lotsa blunders that evening. But it's only blunders that we learned and become better..isn't it? And so, we started mixing the ingredients then Don went to marinate the chicken with it. So while waiting, we intend to cook the Penang Char Kway Tiao 1st. I have to pound the chilli which i hate it..haa! Then we started to cook. When we need the Kway Tiao, we realised that we forgot to bring it out the fridge. Wahaha...the kway tiao was so hard that i have to soak it a while in the water before putting it all onto the wok. And finally, it's done. We did a little tasting and declare that dish a SUCCESS! Next up, the chickens. We wondered how come there's so much water on the pot that we marinate the chickens only to realised that i forgot to drain away the water i used to watch the chickens. OHOHOH! Big Big BLUNDER. Wahaha..still, we went ahead with it and fried the chicken. Oil was splattering all around..making the whole floor oily. One by one, the chickens was dished onto the plates and we had the 1st bite. This time round, we declared it a SUCCESS too. Hooray, we are potential Chef. Cooking is really lotsa fun and how i wished those times don't end.

After eating, we played some games and it's supper time. We ate, chilli Tuna with Bread, Duck porridge, curry puff and leftover chicken from dinnertime. Full til we can't moved, not long after we finish our supper, we felt sleepy..zzzz

Saturday

Nothing much on this day. Attended my friend's performance at Phunk Bar. Lotsa noisy bands around, why noisy because the vocalist were mostly screaming out rubbish as i couldn't hear a word they 'sang'. My friend's band wasn't too bad.

As there's nothing much, we left and headed home. Swat 4 and maple abit then sleep...

Today

Went to meet up Jon and Don for lunch. Then headed to Bukit Batok to buy Jon's contact lens. Head back home and maple. Yay..i finally levelled up. Hmm..can't wait for 3rd job. I think once i start working, it'll be more difficult for me to level up as the time spend to play will be much lesser.

Tml i'll be starting work already. Feeling very mixed and messy now. Hopefully, tml will turn out to be fine. I have to re-adjust my sleeping hours. Usually, i'll be sleeping like around 4am, now, i'll have to sleep at around 12am to get ample sleep. Waking up at 7am is never easy for me. I'm so afraid i wouldn't be able to wake up because it's been so long since i wake up so early. Hopefully, i'll be able to wake up.

Today kick off with me waking up especially early. At least it's considered early to me. 9 plus am and i'm already awake..rare to find me awake at this hour as i would and should be sleeping like a pig. Today woke up especially early, just to wake from a call from my agent. I'm supposed to go for an interview today and so i purposely woke up early to wait for her to gimme the details. And yea, she finally called after much wait.

Gave me the details and i met Don up. He's accompanying me to the interview and we were planning to play pool too. Had lunch before setting off to Toa Payah HDB hub. I was wondering, if i really worked there, will it be a long trip from home to work and work to home. Check the information chart and it says that from Choa Chu Kang to Toa Payoh will take u ard 38mins excluding waiting time. Which turns out to be quite accurate. Well, if i really get shortlisted and work that, it isn't that bad anyway ( i was thinkin to myself then ).

And so, i reached there early than expected. The interview is suppose to be 2:30pm but i intend to go there earlier as it's always better to be early, especially interview! The HDB hub has lots of lift lobbies. Making me blur. Took two lift wrongly, went to wrong floor. Ask around before finally found the place. That agenet gave me the details, it says 25th storey. When i reach 25th storey, the whole place is like so sercured. It has a tainted glass panel and a telephone by the side with the glass panals door locked! One female suddenly opened the door from inside and told me the interview who's suppose to interview me is on the 18th storey and not 25th storey. ARGH!! Make a wasted trip to 25th storey. And so, i took back the lift and make my way to the 18th storey.

Reached 18th storey. Went in and ask for the interviewer. He came out, dressed formally with tie and look totally a office guy. Luckily, i dressed myself in formal too, well, not as formal as him. He shook my hand and so, we proceed to a room and start the interview. This is the 1st time i attend such a formal interview. He started off by asking me to introduce myself. And so, i introduce myself. Saying out my education, current status, strength and weaknessess. Right after i finishing talking, he starting asking questions. Without any preparation, i just spit out whatever i could think of. Somehow, the usual crappy me, seems to have a fliter in my brain at the point of time. I could think before i say. I realised that i really have to think before i talked. Any mistakes will caused a bad impression. Then he went out to ask me about my experiences. He then tell my about the job scope and expectations. It seems a different kind of job to me and not really what i expected. But i would really love to have it. Somehow, from the way he interview me, i realised that he needs someone who is experience is such field as in those who has experience in admin work. Although he mentioned that he admired my attitude towards work which i crapped abit about, but the impression he gave me is that he would rather choose those that has more experience.

He also asked questions like, " what makes u stand out from other candidates for this job." Totally unexpected, i mentioned about my strength and again crapped abit. I realised that in interviews, if u are just talking about yourself, u might drag yourself into a dangerous sea. Crapping abit will do you good as it somehow creates that kinda of impression that might makes u stand out.

After done with the interview, again, they say they will contact me if i'm shortlisted. So, i'll considered that as a disappointment 1st. Went with Don to town to play pool. again, he's the ultimate winner but luckily this tiem round, there's no punishment. Wahaha..i brought him to a desert shop to have desert. He ordered mango sago whereas i ordered seasame paste with Ah Boling. In case u are wondering what Ah Boling is, it's called Tang(1) Yuan(2) in chinese. And shit. I regretted ordering it. Seeing Don eating the mango sago which is COLD, i regretted ordering something hot. And in no time, he finished up his bowl of desert and while i'm still slowly eating my sesame paste, i starts to feel abit sian. The sesame paste smells so nice when it was 1st served onto the table right in front of me and as i eat, it gets more and more yucky. But the Ah Boling saves me. It's always so damn nice for me to eat that. Yummy, after finish all the Ah Boling on that bowl, it's left with the sesame paste. It taste so weird to me now so much so that it look as if i can never finish it up. Every mouth i take, i feel something terrible down my throat and at last, i couldn't take it. I feel like vomiting. So, we left the place and i bought an ice cold winder melon drink and it manages to prevent me from puking.

By the time i reached home, i started to have a slight headache and by 10pm, it was so pain that i could feel something vibrating in my head. It's as if my whole head wanted to burst. I really feel like banging my head on the wall at that point of time. I actually wanted to continue staying online as i wanted to play maple with Don. But it was so pain that i decided to have a short 'nap' 1st. So i slept for around 2 hours plus and woke up. By then, my head wasn't even pain. Sleeping cures my headache. Wahaha..who says i need Panadol! Saw Don online and he complained that he died two times in maple.

Well, starting off at level 51 isn't easy. Cos by level 51, the degree of the game would by far be more difficult as the monster u handle is different from when u are level 20,30 etc..So it's natural that Don's not used to it yet. But i think that he's starting to get the hang of it. But just now as we played, there this idiot then ks us. Level 74 and so he went around ks-ing us. She even go to the extent to calling his friend and gave Don a mass defame. Afterwhich, they proceed with childish acts like scolding our parents, saying us dogs. And of cos, NOT being childish, we ignored them. How can one be so childish and i mean, it's just a game. Do one have to go to the extent of being so lame. Haiz, but who cares, they can scold all they want, I and Don just wanna enjoy the game. Finally, after much playing, Don's starting to get the hang of it and hopefully, he'll levelled up soon.

Recently, i hasn't been contacting in touch with sis. I know she has common test this week. Jia you and don't give yourself too much stress. Stay positive and good luck for all your tests.

Well, this is by far one of the longest post i've ever posted, if not the longest post. Haha..i'll change my blogskin soon..Tired of it already..stay tuned!

I have to say something. It isn't lazy of me to blog..it's just that i'm simply moodless and don't have the mood to blog..I'm feeling troubled enough as to not being able to find a job. I've tried for weeks, coming to a month. Haiz..it's the disappointment that gets me feeling so troubled. And from time to time, i get disappointment because i pin too much hope each time i receive calls from my friends and from employers, asking me to go interview. But after each and every interview, i would end up feeling more disappointed. Those employers will always say, "i will give you a call if u are being shortlisted."

After that sentence, i'll never hear from them again. Dumb system CMPB has. Why can't they allocated everyone according to their PES status and give each and every enlistees their enlistment dates. At least it would be fairer. Argh, now i'm still in a 'unknown' state whereby i don't even know when i get enlosted. Damn frustrating. Difference from June and October is full 4 months. That's like SOOOO many months! I can earn lotsa money. Argh..now i'm stuck with completetely no jobs.

Today i was brought to the same job agency that i visited weeks ago by Yang Bing. Had i known he would bring me to this job agency, i would have rejected him. From actually having an interview to having none of the job opportunities at all bring my morale down. Argh...sux man.

Just now i received a call some a female who was speaking so fast then i forgot to ask her where's she from. Now i can only be left dangling down there, waiting for her call. Hopefully i can get her call tml, as she said she will. I WANNA WORK!!

Yay..Aqua road in maple is open. Finally i'm in! I manage to hunt my set of tubes and i got 3/4 tubes for my sister already. Hehe..But Aqua Road is kinda boring. The style of fighting in the map is difficult because it's in the water, i have to constantly float in the water while fighting, which makes it difficult for me to kill those monsters. Nevertheless, i've mastered the art of fighting in Aqua Road. So if u are having difficulties, let me know..hehe..

Finally, Don's playing Maple. Wahaha..actually wanted to sell my level 50 suit to earn some mesos but since he's playing, i shall give him those stuff and earn mesos myself. Meanwhile, i shall pray that that girl who called me earlier on would call me back soon..

*PRAY*

ARGH! Today was different from all other normal holidays. Well, my so called 'holidays'. Today actually intended to go for severals interviews and job application. But in the end, we went for only one. We went to a Job Agency called KELLY SERVICES. It seems a place which is very professional. That highly boost my thinking that i'll get a job here. Introduction by a friend also mentioned that this job agency is good. But it don't turned out to be so. It's so sucky man. They only have A JOB available and it's a contract job. OMg, how am i ever able to go into a CONTRACT job. I called the MINDEF and they can't even give me an answer on when can i get enlisted. My friends mentioned to me before how slow people in CMPB and MINDEF are..today, i hear it for myself..the guy talking to me on the phone is just repreating what the operator is talking. What's the difference of telling me when that dumb operator has already told me, obviously one would have called this line and heard the operator before calling the guy. Oh..how dumb can one be..

Haiz..disappointed and frustrating. Went to this foodcourt to eat..had to walk quite a distance just to find something cheap to fill our stomachs (it's not easy to survive when u don't have an income). After that, we went to Jurong West Library. Eh guys, it's a new library.u guys should check it out..well, it's not the nicest library as compared to the one in Jurong East and the new National Library, but it's certainly a good place for studying. Borrowed a book on Photoshop. Sudden;y, i have a craving for design. I personally feel that designing and ooze out all your creative juices, making u a better thinking person. Flow with what ur mind thinks and i suppose it's an achievement to design something and get comments that are positive and negative.

I was shocked to hear Matt called just before we wanted to left home. He's at Jurong West Library too..i was shocked only to find out it was Muz who asked him to come. Good timing and lucky Matt, later by a few mintues and we are going to HOME SWEET HOME. Matt suggested jamming. WOOT! It's something i haven't done for months, almost coming to a year (in this case, what i mean by jamming is 'rocking' in a proper jamming room, with everyone fully in the band). Shiok, this time round, it was special. It's the 1st time we jammed like this. One started off any thune/chords and other instruments will play accordingly. In the end, we created quite a few song by ourselves and it did actually sounds quite nice too. As always, one hour will be up so soon before we know it. Jamming is never enough but as far as money is concerned, we can only limit ourselves to an hour of fun.

Went home with a heavy heart. Finally, got a precious call from Jon, saying that there's a job for me. Hm..i'm going to try my luck tml..hopefully i'll get it. Yang Bing also says he has got a job for me..ARGH! I simply just can't wait to work.

Don said something to me. Treat this period of time like a holiday. Enjoy it. Having a job will be a bonus. But how can i enjoy without income. I won't have anything to eat. I'll just die at home, munching on bread and buscuits. How sucky man! So no matter what, i'm going to try til i get a job.

Woot..almost one week since i last blogged. Hmm...let's recap an overview of what i've done since Sunday til now..Yawn..

Went for Chan Min's 21st Birthday Party. It was very nicely done. Held at Aloha Loyang, the place is spacious. Alot of people were present at her party. Quite alot are her female classmates..pretty and cute..wahaha..but as always, we guys only have the share of admiring from far..So far this year, i've been to quite a few 21st birthday parties. Hmm..ever since i knew The Billiard House has closed down, i have been troubling as to where should i hold my 21st birthday party. It's going to be the 1st time i hold a party and maybe the last, so i was intending to make it a unique one. But unique means difficult as in Singapore, it's hard to hold a party at a 'Unique' place. Nevertheless, i will still try finding. Hm..i've still got a few more months to think about that..slowly..

This week has been boring. Looking for jobs, blah blah blah...Now i fully understand how difficult it is to find a job. There are so many factors to consider. Location, pay, interest, job scope etc etc..All this makes looking a job far more difficult. U can buy weeks of Straits Times and look under JobsAds and not getting a single Job interview and i mean INTERVIEW only.! Kaoz..Doesn't it sux..I'll still continue finding..i really wished a job would come my way soon..

As usual, i'm still indulging myself in 'korean love'. I;ve been renting and downloading Korean Movie like never before. I guess i can watch tons of such movie and go crazy about it. Hmm...someday, i would really wished to know a korean girl, learn their culture, their tone of language, cook korean dish..Argh...might as well be a korean right..wahaha..

I just come back from this chinese god thingy. Have to look after the place as i promised my relative..it's super bored just now but i still have to do it. Now i'm feeling super tired. Today i finally levelled up (i mean maple). I just can't wait for get to 3rd job..Yawn, i better get going..my bed's calling me

Woot! My last day of school has ended. How time flies..it's 3 years in a blink..although poly school life ain't really that fantastic, but i've really made some really good friends and had quite a few good moments in sch..Luckily, this time round, i don't have to get interviewed by lecturers. Getting interviewed by lecturers is not something good. The day we had to take back our portfolios and stuff, we will at the same time, show fear on our faces, fearing that our name will be shown on the list where it shows who are the people needed to be interviewed. It simply just means u might not be able to pass this year, that's why the lecturers has this interview thing going on.

I'm simply glad not to see my name appear there..phew..i heard from my own class tutor that if one is not able to pass this year, he/she won't even get the chance to repeat the year. He/She will be out of course right away. How cruel can that be?!?! U go through 3 full years, only to end up with nothing, not even a chance..i'm really thanking god for this chance..wahaha..

Yesterday went looking for job through job agency. Haiz, hard to find a job now..harder to find one that suits u. Really don't know where to start looking for job. Anyone know of any job agency? Can intro me?

Alright man!! Yesterday was officially the last day of school. My final assignment was handed in. All i have to do now is pray and wait for my results to be out. This week seems rather empty, i'm totally slacking at home. Now, i shall watch all the vcds i rented and played all the games i bought. It's time, of cos meanwhile, i'll still be looking for job. Hopefully, i can manage to get one.

I want to watch Final Destination 3!!!!!!!!! Wahaha..have been looking for pple to watch with me, but either some are working, in camp, not free or no money..I don't want to miss movie just like that..like how i miss I Not Stupid Too..That's it..i will call upon whoever is reading this, ask me out for movie..FAST!! I'll be waiting..

It's already almost near 4 days since the street soccer competition, and i can still feel aches all over my body, even though they are slightly less painful now. After the compeition, the days that followed were painly boring. Stayed at home like an idiot, not going anywhere else. Felt just so tired and plain lazy. All i am thinking is just mapling and playing my guitar.

Finally, i learned how to play Master Of Puppets Verse. Haha, that may not be something that's very wonderful to some but at least i am learning. It's shiok and cool. I think with the help of the mike and webcam, i might even come up with a MTV of myself..wahaha..shameless right? NO! This is going to come true, trust me..wahaha..

I regretted buying that webcam, although the quality is only so-so, i still don't mind. But what makes me fed up is that my computer shuts down all of the sudden, just by random , and restarts by itself whenever webcam program is on. FRUSTRATING! I'm going to get a new and much much better webcam once i found a new job.

Argh..speaking abt finding a job..how the hell am i going to find a new job. I simply don't know where to start. I wanted to work full-time, earn more money, but at the same time, i'm worried that i might not be up to it. Even if i could, i might not be able to find a proper full-time job. Argh, so many things to bother just one thing - looking for a job. Argh..Pple, got any job lobang? Please contact me, i'm somewhat desperate already. HELP!!

Friday i got back my test papers result. As i suppose i didn't do very well in the final presenation that time, i seriously hope that this test would help me. But after finishing the tests paper a week ago, i left the school with fear. Fear of failing my tests, resulting in poor grades. To my surprise, i passed all except for one. I almost pass the one which i failed, but it's ok, that module ain't that bad as compared to other modules which i'm already very poor at. Hopefully, it will push my overall grade up. For now, i'm only left with the final assignment of my whole dipolma course, my final year portfolio. It's not something very difficult but it require some time to do. I shall devote some time for that portfoilo. Deadline for University application is up, everything seems to be so rush this year so much so that i am not able to submit my application on time. I shall tried my luck next year. I'm hoping to do a part time degree course in something i'm interested and work at the same time while studying after my National Service. Well, that shall be my plan for now. Advices pple?

I'm getting more and more free. During this time, before entering National service, i shall do what i wanted to do, before i enter NS. I played games, watched vcds, watched movies, played guitar etc etc..Recently,i had this feeling again. The same old feeling a few years ago, when i mad at korean movies. Now, i'm into it again. It's a sweet, nice feeling that make me yearn for lotsa thing. Things that i can't say out unless you are really my close friend, probe me when u see me online bah. Upon saying all that, my ideal honeymoon shall now be South Korean. A winter honeymoon with the one u love, doing things together, spending time together, just the world of the two of us..hmm...sweet feeling.. That's my ideal honeymoon i suppose. Wahaha..I guess that would be quite a romantic country. Hmm, for now, i shall soak myself in more romance korean movie..haha..hmm...i'm floating....

Yesterday was Shiok! Went to school to print my assignment. After that, is the long awaited street soccer compeition. I had a little hestitation wether to join this compeition or not, cos my knee is still injured and has yet to recover fully even though the condition has improved. I'm afraid that after playing, my knee would be pain yet again. However, i still go ahead with the decision of joining as to me, this will be the last time i'm playing street soccer in sch and with my poly friends.

So the match started. And gosh, this time, we had to play 7 games. It was hell. With just four players and one substitute, we were simply struggling. Lost 4 games, draw 1 and won 2. One of those we one is because one team forfeit. ARGH!!! We tried to score in each game, and yea, we sure did. I scored the most goals among the team but because at the same time, we weren't defending well, therefore, we lost. Nevertheless, we had fun. Losing or winning doesn't matter, it was how we enjoy it.

And so, the game lasted til late evening. By the time i reached home, i was aching all over, having headache, due to the extreme weather in the afternoon. Went to bed early and woke up in time to catch the soccer match. And yea, Arsenal won and Liverpool lost! WOOT!.

After the match, it was sleeping time. I woke up this afternoon, feeling even more pain at my knee. Haiz, this time, my knee is going to take a while before i can really heals..

Saturday

Woot! I met my buddies late..my mum cooked my lunch, i'm somehow 'forced' to confine in the day for a while, after lunch, i feel lazy to go, so went to meet Gavian and Jonathan late. As usual, whacked balls and this time, we watched movie. I always like the feeling of watching movie. That's when time really flies, and during the process, we were engrossed in the movie. Be it nice ot bad, i treasure this moment for i hardly enjoyed film like that other than being in the movie theater. This time round, we watched 'Match Point'.

I thought this movie would be boring, as the starting shows quite a boring scene with lousy music. Although this whole movie only has two soundtracks - which are both 'music that caused sleepiness', the story wasn't really that bad. The girl certainly was beautiful, sensually attractive i would say. This actress has a lips that most man would want to kiss, i suppose that's the main reason why Don and Mun Hoe chose this movie.

Sunday

Went to buy my 1st ever webcam. So whoever has a webcam, please approach me online. Let's have some fun video conferencing. I suppose it would be fun. Hehe..oh ya, i decided to dump the idea of buying an Ipod Nano. Instead, i'm going to get the latest Sony A-series Walkman. It's so sleeky and cool, i simply can't wait to get my hands on it. Purple colour is the best, because it's my favourite colour. ARGH!!! I can't wait!!

Today

Woot! 1st time getting a free ride from Farhan's bike. This is the 1st time man, can u believe it. It's been weeks since he last bought his bike, and finally, he bought a helmet today, that's why i'm getting rides from him. I still remember how he said he would not speed that time when he just passed his driving test and about to buy a bike and today, he was speding through, way over the speed limit. Haha, initially, i was abit scared to ride as it's been months since he last pillion a person. Wahaha, but the feeling was shiok. Simply shiok, to have wind passing by you, hearing the sound of the motor bike engine and the speeding wind, one word can describe t - SHIOK! Farhan helped me alot in my portfoilio. As always, he's the only person that would helped me so much in most things that i do, that is why i never regretted knowing him as a friend, to the extent of regarding him as a very very close friend. Haha, the way he ride a motorbike is just different from the way he behaves. Only i can tell you that, for not many will be able to have the chance to witness what i witnessed today.

Tml is the street soccer compeition. Wish me goodluck people!! Wahaha, hope i don't come back with an injured leg again. *PRAY*

Alright man! Finally got my photocard license. The feeling is just so different. It's not an ordinary card, to me, it's a hard that i have been yearning for, one that i have been trying to get hold for months. Now whenever i pass that stupid dumb Bukit Batok Driving Centre, i can happily say that i will not need to go back there again (Don't worry, i'll try my best to be a safe driver and not get my license suspended) CHOI CHOI CHOI! The photocard license is certainly nice..wahaha..

Another piece of good news, finally my tests are all over..i can consider myself as a free bird..except i'm left with a small assignment to do which is my portfolio.

Now i shall try and chiong my maple and hopefully get the 3rd job asap..3rd job, here i come!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Valentine's Day To all couples, singles...EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are attached, may you feel especially loved today with lotsa roses, chocolates and maybe kisses..

If you are single, congrats. We are in the same boat..cmon..think positively..Ask me out..wahaha...

Alright! It's another wonderful outing yesterday. Sleeping for less than 3 hours, i woke up again. This time, off to send Amelia off to Australia. She's studying there..for how long..er...i'm not veru sure. This time round, we need to travel by public transport. We've got a car. Wahaha..Gavian picked Don up 1st before picking me up. After that, we're off the Changi Airport. Reached there very early....this is the 1st time i reached Changi Airport so early..Sent Amelia off and we went Chinatown.

Argh..we searched for The Billiard House. I had a mild impression of it - it's located above YumCha restaurant. And so, i found YumCha restaurant but at the same time, realised a bad news. The Billiard House has closed down. There goes my 21st birthday plan. I'll just have to find another place to celebrate my birthday party. At 11pm, it's also very hard to find a place where we can play pool..in the end, we were walking under the hot sun, around chinatown like an idiot. Headed back to the carpark where we parked our car and we proceed to Paradiz Centre.

When we reached there, we started whacking balls. Then Mun Hoe came to join us shortly..this time round, there's no ultimate winner and loser. ARGH!! i could have win, but only to lose to Don during the last game..wahaha..Mun Hoe left to met his friends after the pool session whereas we went to pick Jonathan up. Along the way, we saw alot of Indians..They were walking along the streets, celebrating Thaipusam i think. Some had to carried heavy stuff with lotsa things pierced onto their body..ewww...

Finally we met Jon, Natural Objection all present. And so, we went to Taka for dinner. We went Pariss. I started off the dinner quite uncomfortably because of stomach upset, but after bombimg the toilet, i'm back in action and started eating lotsa food..eat and eat and eat..It's been a long time since we had buffet together. As it was Gavian's birthday, we make do with the cake we found there. We gather up all the small cakes and used the marshmellows dipped with chocolate sauce as candle and present it to Gavian, singing birthday song at the same time. HAPPY BIRTHDAY GAVIAN!!!

After dinner, it's down to MOS..Shiok..this is the 1st time we go to MOS (Ministry of Sound). Upon entering, loud booming music boost up the whole place. We decided to explore the whole place before settling down at a table. Along our way to exploring, we notice lotsa tables being reserved. Curious, we asked a waiter, under what conditions can we reserve a seat like that. His answer is that we can just called and reserve or e-mail them, provided we ordered at least..AT LEAST!!..a bottle of hard liquor i suppose. Example chivas..asked the waiter again, one bottle of such liquor would cost a whopping $200++..Wow..haa..maybe i shall hold my party here instead..hmm...I didn't drink that night as i would be the one driving later on. MOS to me is quite a nice place. But the only place that is spacious enough is 'The Arena" where the music is like house i suppose. I danced over there the whole night as the Retro and Hip-Hop side were packed like mad. A nice experience i had.

Can't wait to go there again..MOS anyone?

9th Feburary 2005! What an important date to me. A day that contain the most of my ups and downs. It will be a day that i'll always remember for the rest of my life. I PASSED MY DRIVING TEST!! Well, u may think i'm nuts for 'bolding' and 'capsing' the words, but other than that, i can simply use nothing to convey my happiness, excitement and tons and tons of feelings and expressions to u people.

I owe this pass to lotsa people. My mum especially, who has been the one supporting me, encouraging me and even be there for me when i'm the one intending to give up, especially when that time i failed my driving test for the 2nd time. No one will understands how it feels to see you mum waiting anxiously at the driving centre just to see your failure and yet encourage you. That strongly makes me feel useless and a big letdown myself at that point of time. But my mum was the one who is there to drive me on..on and on and on...I owe this to her!! Others include my dad, my bro, my buddies and GOD!

I'm not a person that believes in GOD fully. 'GOD' itself is a profound word to me and always, to lotsa people. That's why religion is there for u to believe in and in search of the true you. I went on last friday to 'pray' to a GOD. He/She advice me to wear only blue or white and no red and black at all. My mum asked me to go, so i came back, telling her all the advice that was told by GOD. So, my mum prepared my shirt, jeans, underwear and almost everything that is to be wore by me on that very day. She even cut out the brand of the shirt which is black in colour. I was like, WTH. But what to do, i have to do it and believe in it since i asked and pray to it. So i went out with this kinda nerdy look, perticularly different from my usual self as i took of all my ear studs, cut my hair real short and dressed myself up like an er...idiot? Wahaha..

All these so called scacrifices payed off. I passed my driving test. I'm shocked to find out that i passed as i didn't drive really well that day. I was stunned for a few seconds when i got my results. After that, i was super happy, very very very happy. I couldn't wait to call my friends, and my mum!! Out of the 13 people who got tested on that time slot, only 4 passed and i was one of them. Phew...what a relief..now u know how strict the tester are and how lucky i am. I must stressed that i am darn lucky. I could passed because the tester were lenient on me. After that, i collected my temporary license and off i go to home sweet home.

When i reached home, i shared the good news with my mum and she jumped for joy. Reward for passing, ABALONE noodle soup. It's real abalone ok...not those that taste like fishcake.. Wah..lucky chap i am...then the rest of the day is just maple, maple and maple..

Today, Gavian went to rent a car as discussed. Today is the 1st time i drove frely without any instructor beside me. The feeling was totally different and shiok. The 1st time i drove on expressway too!! Wah..let me tell you, it's super cool..But it also let me sees how reckless some drivers are. The real driving ain't that safe. You won't even notice even if you are sitting in the front seat of a taxi or someone else's car. U have to actually drive to understand what i meant. Speed limit sign seems to have no effect on any drivers out there. I'm already exceeding the speed limit by abit due and all the car and speding past me..omg, imagine, speed limit is 90km/h and they are speding past me, i assume their speed would be around 140km/h. Wah..haa..kinda scary. Well, today was a good experience for me. Tml i'll be driving too. This time from west to east (My house to Changi Airport) Wow..haa..can't wait..gtg liao...ZzZZZz

I'm sorry to someone that this post came late, well, maybe way too late. I remembered i did mention someone i assumed that she's going to be my loyal reader. And surprisingly, i suppose that it's true..

This week ain't a good one for me..The worst so far this year..Monday, i handed in my final submission - my final year major project..Just so i thought i could relaxed after monday..nightmare came..I had my presentation on Tuesday.

I woke up very early on Tuesday, to be ready for my presenatation. Everything was ok until my turn, i'm expecting myself to do quite alright..like everyone does. It turned out not to be so..i'm abit disappointed in myself but more disappointed at my own lecturers who praise me for my good work before and during submission, yet not helping in to explain why i fail to convey. You may ask, it's your presentation, why should they do that to help you. First of all, they did help the others too, y not me? Secondly, they understand my work best and most, so why not correct my failure in presentating my project scheme to the panel. Haiz..Anyway, it was a total suck-up!

After presentation, i went for my driving revision. It's been 3 months since i last drove (the last time i drove was the time i failed my driving test). The driving revision was totally bad. I forgot how to drive and had some , err, actualy it's alot of mistakes. I felt totally bad, my morale is low. Suddenly, all bad things are happening. I pour out to my mum yesterday, as usual, she's worried for me and consoled me. How good it is to have a mother who listens to you. I'm happy that i have such a mother..Mood started picking up.

Went market today with my mum..It's been so long since i last went to market with her. Had a short chat with her, cut my hair (for the driving test tml). I seriously hope i can pass, so that i won't let myself down, my friends down and most importantly, my parents down. Please God, bless me and let me pass my driving test. Today driving revision was alot better that yesterday. That heavily boost my morale to the top and i'm starting to gain confidence for tml's driving test. Saw my cousin at the driving centre too. After the lesson, i met up with him and chatted a while. He complained about his driving instructor, who's always giving one chop at a time. Well, i understand how he feels as i've been through what he's going through. But i supposed he's much more worse than me. It's very frustrating how your instructor who purposely gives u only one chop when u have completed what u are supposed to or even more and better. That means we have to put in more money into the 'BBDC' (Bukit Batok Driving Centre) pocket.

Haiz..ive got no mood to write alrdy. Hopefully by the time i blog the next time, hopefully tml, i'll be blogging about some really good news...readers, pray for me..

Well, this post is for a recent reader who turns out to be quite a friendly girl who goes around calling me ' red head, red head'. Haa..I suppose she will be a loyal reader to my blog just like how her sister used to be like, or maybe still..haa, i don't know.

Yesterday rushed project til i'm going bonkers. Actually, i;m not rushing. Just getting frustrated by the amount of work that has to be done. Making my hair stand up. Nevertheless, i still manage to finish it - of cos not putting my whole heart and mind onto it. Well, i'm not the kind that will concentrate on doing the project, and doing it properly. I'm just those kind who's like ' aiyah, like that can la..heck..as long as got show can already'. That's why i never get good grades - i mean As or even Bs. I never intended to for i know what kind of person i am. People may say, y u don't try, isn;t it wasteful of your parents money for u just to study in this manner. I can't help it, that's how i am and i don't intend to change. I'm not cut out to be those 'study, nerdy, hardworking' type. Ask me to spend hours to study for a test/exam or doing project on the computer, i will tell you, not even one hour, i will feel uneasy. Ask my buddy, Don, and he will tell u how exactly it feels like to be doing the forementioned. Cos he recently got tormented by some dead living things - his notes about his training.

I'm the one who's like what Mildred say she is too - work hard and play hard. Wahaha, well, not exactly that type, i suppose to be those who work less play more. I'll always find time to relax myself, in prevention of me going nuts and jumping down from where i am sitting to studying or doing my project (I lived at 9th storey, jumping down from where i am will surely caused some 'mixing up'. And yay! Finally i gained level. But as compared to Mildred who i have decided to presume her as MAD! She's already level 57, in the time span of like, a few days/weeks? Well, maybe she has the help of whom she claimed not to be her bf but ain't it just so obvious. Well, i'm not going to probe too as she might has her own reasons.

Man Utd was shit yesterday. They play like some fools, being fooled around by monkeys(refering to blacburn here). Watching the 1st half was already wasteful of my sleeping time, so i decided to turn in during the 2nd half. Farhan woke up early to come to my house to complete our projects. ARGH, i got fed up with some problems that came on just before we were finishing our projects. It's always the thumbdrive that driving me crazy. Til now, the thumbdrive that someone gave me is still not fixed and i'm pissed! So much so that i have decided to buy myself a external HDD. Woo..whoever is reading this, any recommendations and any idea what's the price range for a external HDD of around 30-40GB?

Finally, got my project printed out. Driving test is next week, this is my ??? time. I seriously wanted to pass..tml i'll be going to temple to pray, argh, i'm just having this darn phobia of this test. Crap..let me cool myself and feel fearful all the way until next thursday. Mel was mentioning on her blog how lonely she is going to be. Thinking through of what she has blogged, it kinda tough to find your other half. It takes two hands to clap so well, what to do. I'll be joining Mel and lotsa other singles on that very wonderful day. Isn't it just another normal day, just abit more roses, chocolates, a few more intimacy between dumb couple (because i'm jealous of them..wahaha). Chey..haa..i rather be mapling and gain level fast, hopefully to catch up lotsa people. I'm fed up with being ks-ed and not getting help from friends..they sux..

Chinese New Year

Well, all i could say is that Chinese New Year is getting more and more boring year by year. I basically spending my whole 3 days of holidays at home. Slacking, drinking and consuming the all junk food that i can find. Didn't manage to go anywhere to bai nian today. As usual, my relatives would all gather at my aunt house who lives below me with her only son - 'ah bear'. Afterwards, they'll come and gather at my hse. The duration of their stay at my house is lesser and lesser year by year too. Surprisingly, two of my relatives and their families didn't turned up this year. That makes it even worse. I didn't even talk to some of my cousins as we aren't very close or rather, not close at all. Thinking that how great it was to spend chinese new year when we were still young (refering to around age 10), looking forward to this great festive holiday is the happiest things on earth, cos we get to drink fizzy drinks, eat like never before and most importantly, play til we sweat as if we just came out from the swimming pool. However, years pass, all of us has grow up. No general topic between each other, and that makes us bored. Nevertheless, i still tried to organise activities with a few of my closer cousins.

We went to lot 1 to play abit of pool. It was a great session. After which we proceed to movie. This time round, we watched 'Fun with Dick and Jane'. A funny movie of cause but i don't think it's worth the money as the story ain't that nice and the duration of the movie was short.

Here comes day 2 and it's more boring than day 1. I'm staying at home the whole day..playing maple and surfing around. How i hate Chinese New Year now..it's even worse than Hungry Ghost Festival. Luckily, Jon came to my hse later in the day before us, proceeding to Don house for some fun. Haa, now's the fun part. We started off by going to don's parents and bai nian to them. As usual, exchange of madarin oranges and hong baos. Then finally, the last man has arrived - Gavian. We then chatted a while before trying out PS2. Haa, my multi-tap sux as it couldn't function anymore. I don't know what is wrong with it but luckily, Gav's works. Wohooo, we played Winning Eleven with 4 of us together as a team. Haa, it's more than just a game to Gavian and maybe to us, it's a Comedy too! Haha..it's hilarious how 4 person can play as a team as chasing after a ball would require the 4 of us, dashing towards a stupid ball, haha..causing lotsa funny action. After that, it's WWE. Haha, we punch each other, kick each other like there's no tomorrow, til our hands numb, or maybe it's just me. Finally, it's mahjong session. Gavian has the best luck initially, then followed by Jon. I won a few too but poor don didn't win any. I feel it's kinda unfair to Don as he don't really know how to play but i guess he still had fun. During this session, there was some debate on some issues on the game, ahaha, which still remained unsettled for we are still not experts afterall. Jon finally gets 'fed up'. He lost money to me and Gav like it's going to last forever and in the end, he suggested play poker game - a game he presume he could win back his loss and even get winnings - FAST! Wahah..well, expected or maybe not, he lost even more money. Hahah...cmon jon, it's fated. After which we packed up and went back home to ZXzZzZz

3rd day. It's project day. Haha, it's the day before sch starts again which means, it's the day where i try and do my project fast. As usual, i can't get my heart set on it, and get kinda frustrated doing it. Sis and her bf came ard mid afternoon. I must say i'm a poor host but certainly better than my bro. Hong Qi (my sis bf) went to my bro room (of cos as he don't know me that well) and started playing PS2 and my sis of cos would come to my room. Aww, i'm so stuck to what we should do. Me, being the one who ask my sis to come, end up making my sis bored. Haa, feeling bad, i cracked my dumb and cocked up brain and in the end, some vcd saves the day, or rather afternoon. Initially, she suggested watching 'wet dreams' (a korean sex comedy), but as she watched, she don't know what are they talking about, haa, so we switched to her 'favourite genre' - HORROR!! Haa, suprise to find her choosing that movie. And i must say, she's great, for being able to watch finish the whole movie. It's cute to see how my sis react to the movie where there;s horrow scenes. Haha, come to think of it, i haven't seen any horrow movie with her before. hmm...nevertheless, we complete the movie and son after she left with her bf.

I slack while before falling to sleep. Didn't have a good day yesterday because i'm having too much troubles, maybe that explain why i can be such a bad host to my sis too. Haiz, a sleep and a talk with my mother certain;y makes me feels better. The company of Don online was helping too. Poor him, have to study for his exam to the extent of not sleeping (well, he still sleep in the end..haa!). Wish him goodluck for his exam, oops, maybe it's over already but still, goodluck man!

It's only a few more days to my project submission. I can't wait for it to past!! ARGH!! These efw days, i have to burn midnight oil, going to sleep to replenish my fuel now..

Finally, the long awaited Lunar New Year is here...i miss the 'aucpicious' hour..i slept past it..wahaha..can't help it, i'm just too tired after a fulfilling reunion dinner.

Yesterday went Mun Hoe with Gavian, Donovan and Mun Hoe. Actually intended to go eat frog leg porridge but cos we were afraid we were unable to catch any bus to anywhere convinient, so Gavian suggested going clubbing. This time, Jonathan didn't join us because someone in his section/company lost his rifle. I didn't know it was so serious to lost a rifle until my buddies told me how serious it could be. One could get charged and held in detention barracks for 7 years, that's no difference from going to jail. I bet the person who lost is must be feeling bad, worried...just having lousy and mixed feelings. It's just no joke. Then thoughts started coming to my mind. Serving NS so much so until u get into trouble yourself, suffering in and out..just total crap. Enough of this shit, let's talk about the clubbing instead.

So we guys went to Music Underground after much thought and analysis. But it proved to be a wrong decision. Wahaha, should have gone to zouk man, well, no one's to be blamed. Reason why clubbing ain't that fun yesterday - well, at least for me. Too little people, that greatly decreased the number of female clubbers. Not only that but yesterday Hip Hop songs seems a little bit too much, actually not little bit, it's too too much. I was like standing there for quite a long time before some techno songs came back to get me into dancing mood. As usual there will be one or two weird clubbers. There was one who dance like a monkey who lotsa funny actions, making me laugh as i thought he's just making a fool of himself. Mun Hoe and Gavian didn't seems to be that active yesterday..i wonder why..

Today i woke up, kinda worried about my project but i just don't give any [CENSORED]--> (damn/shit) about it. I started off the Lunar New Year eve with lotsa maple. Wahaha..had fun and it's just play play play for today. Finally, it's reunion dinner time. This year, we had steamboat. Yay..i ate alot..especially the fishballs - my favourite! Yummy...after eating, went to watch tv. Godzilla is showing on tv..it's just a superb show i would say. After the show, i fall asleep without realising and by the time i wake up, it's past midnight. Wahaha, never mind. Still --> HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR PPLE <--

Saturday

Went to Don's house in the afternoon with my guitar, pedal and amplifier. Ready to rock his house. Pick Gavian up in a cab before heading towards Donna house. Once we reached the house, we put down our 'weapons' before heading to the nearest foorcourt to replenish our energy before going back to Rock and Jam!

We started off with Jesus of Surburbia. This time round, with the absence of Jon (Due to one/some reasons or another). We had a great and fun time, as always. Not long after, we (The 'we' here refers only to me and Gavian because Don has elegantly tourtured his leg - sprained) headed to Lot 1 Shoppers Mall. Shopped for whatever we need for the steamboat and off we go, back to Don's house.

So we started preparing the food. Slowly one by one, dishes of good filled up the whole table and soon, it was dinnertime! Started off by eating the 'YU SHENG'...Huat ah!! That's the earliest 'Yu Sheng' i've ever ate in my life but was quite fun. Then it was down to steamboat...ate and chatted along the whole meal all the way until the dessert part - Chocolate Fondue.

With abit of Chocolate Fondue left, Don started suggesting playing Indian poker. So those who lost will have to eat whatever is left on that steamboat pot and mix with the chocolate, can u imagine? It looks like err..almost like shit(U will know why i say 'almost' later).. So one by one, got punished and including me too. Finally, the worst forfeit - Raw egg with tomato sauce, chilli sauce and chocolate. Ewww, that's what i called SHIT! As planned, Mun Hoe gave out the cards and purposely leave Don's lucky card - Clubs of ACE and in the end, Don ended up forfeited, expected anyway. He knew Mun Hoe cheated by still drank it, well, Applause for his Spirits!!

Sunday

Spend whole day at home, took a nap before waking up. Finally, more and more people are joining me in Maple. Those who used to played with me are started to give me cold shoulders, just because they think they are of higher level than me, they can choose to depise me, ignore me, but who cares..Play with Rocky abd Solomon. Haa, these two are funny chaps and enjoyed playing with them as i could see myself in them (i used to be a beginner too).

Later that night, it's showdown. Man Utd VS Liverpool. Watching the match with eargerness. It was a tight match and i was expecting a draw. Who knows in the final minute, Rio Ferdinand heads in a nice ball from my favourite player - RYAN GIGGS. Well, he couldn't have scored if not for Giggs's wonderfull cross-in right..hmm..Man Utd Way to go!!

Can't wait for Chinese New Year..Come fast please!

This week's has nothing much in store. Actually was looking forward clubbing tml but then Don coincidentally sprained his legs. He asks us to go ahead, but i was thinking, what's fun without him. Already without Jon, now still without him? No la..cannot de..see don, i'm so good...treasure me more...I suppose we will go his house to jam and have steamboat instead. Hm...not a bad idea too.

My project's on the right track, now i've another problem.. I wanted to apply for Degree-courses but i don't know where i should be heading. I was thinking for taking up hospitality courses or some design courses - as in product design. Film's not bad too as i took film as my elective. Got that interest for it since last time, just unlucky my English ain't that good, that's why didn't manage to get into Film, Sound and Video course in Ngee Ann Poly. Hopefully, by the deadline, i should be able to apply for what i would like to pursue.

Yay..Finally..My Maple character has levelled up. Took me so long, finally it's able to wear the new clothes that i spend alot money on. Somehow, got cheated too..I shall train harder to get it to level 50 so that it can wear the complete suit..

Sis's fell sick. From her sms, i feel that it's quite serious. But she don't want to see doctor, she even wants to go sch and take the test. Seeing her like that, i was thinking..Studies in JC is already very tiring. Have to study study and study..if it's me, i would probably die from all the lectures notes..Hopefully sis can get well soon..

Today my lecturer was giving a lecture on partition. I must say this is the lecture that i gave my most attention to. Don't know why, i just feel that i learnt alot today - about parition. Glass partitions, concrete wall partitions..hmm..My lecturer also tells us something. He says, the reason why most of us sang so well in bathroom is because the space tends to be smaller as compared to a room. Furthermore, the tiles around it and small open spaces within the bathroom absorbs and also bounce off the sounds, making this 'surround' sound. He also joked that the reflected sound are your back up singer. That's why u tend to think that u sing better, thus increasing some people morale and even went for Singapore Idol Audition only to get "****" by Dick Lee or that 'Ah Lian'( Florence)..wahaha...i'll still try playing my guitar in the bathroom someday..

Yea!! It's Monica Birthday PArty!! Headed down to Suntec 1st actually to buy my Chinese New Year clothes. Went Topman and bought a nice long sleeve t-shirt. Quite like it. It's the same designs as Donovan's ('Brothers' should wear the same design mah), but the colour is different from his though. Afterwards, went to Monica's house straight. Along the way, we talked about lotsa things, as always, topics would just come naturally between us. That's the kind of bond we had, and i proud to say, it's getting stronger day by day or rather week by week.

Reached Monica's house without Jonathan (who's the one holding her present). Wished her a happy birthday but felt bad as i feel that it's isn't that nice to wish her happy birthday without giving her the present. I didn't expect it to be so awkward. Saw a couple of my friends or rather classmates. Mon was at her best that day but of cos, it's her day! Not long after, Relatives of her and some other classmates and her friends came. Soon, we started mingle around with a few of them. Wow, they were such a babe! Lucky me to know them..wahaha..Played a game of Indan Poker and let me tell u, it's the worst Indain Poker i've ever played. There were Martell, Vodka, some other alcohol, coke and sprite. Luckily, they only played one game as it's time to cut the birthday cakes. The mug used in the Indian poker is super big man..lucky i'm not the unlucky one, or should i said, the lucky one. Haa, hmmm, i'm imagining what would happen if Jon were to drink it. And bet you, he would drink it all up because pretty girls are all around him.

After that we took photos with Mon and when we finished singing the birthday song, everyone sprayed at Monica, creating 'webs' around her. Wahaha..its was so fun and not long after that, we left for town yet again for a session of pool. This time, Mun Hoe won..Alright, that's it! Next time, it shall be either my turn or Gavian's.

That night, i was talking to Don about the fining of some authorities for posting songs on blogs and personal free hosting website. One will be fined if caught. Allowing downloads of songs/videos will get worse punishments. Haiz..i was thinking, it's getting abt unfair. We actually have to apply for permission to put songs on our web/blogs, and this application cost at least $1000. The more songs we uploaded, the more we have to pay. I mean the purpose is not about piracy anymore. I'm mean not in this case. I'm talking about putting a song on our blog, to let readers enjoy what the blogger enjoys and likes. At the same time, relaxing the reader's mood to get him/her into the right ambience to read what's being posted on the blog. It certainly has no reason of going against original and being 'pirated'. I wouldn't say that much for the uploading of songs on web for viewers to download cos that indeed supports piracy. I'm myself ain't a 'original' person, i mean most aren't. No fuss about it. People will ask, 'WHY ME?' Often than not, i hope i won't be the lucky one. Neverthless, i still put the song on my blog for i don't think i will be given that surprise.

Starting a day or rather a RAINY day wasn't that good at all..It dampens moods, brings down morale and spoils my high spirits, therefore casuing me to be 'malfunction'. Presentation this week wasn't good at all. I didn't show enough of what i am supposed to show, in another words, IMCOMPLETE work..i'm so disappointed yet feeling so helpless. Being classmates with a bunch of selfish IDIOTS are such a torture and disturbance, making me lose more confidence and feel more useless. Luckily, there's still some who really go through with you, been there with you and help u through this difficult stage. Surprisingly, those who tend to be the closest to you, show their fox tail / true colours during true real crisis. Disappointment yet again, came knocking onto me. For all this course only taught me one thing, be independent and maybe, be SELFISH!! Selfish ain't what i possess for i believe that, we, being in the same class together, should help one another, if not, why call each other classmates? Why not call each other compeitiors/rivals or even ASSHOLES! Hates people who are selfish. Share my story with Don yesterday and strongly feels that such people don't even deserve to be given attention. I shall show him who are they/him at Monica's birthday party later.

Oh ya, Monica, if you are reading this --> HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! <--

Went buying some clothes and jeans for my Chinese New Year festive season..A long awaited one but i guess nothing to expect from this season. It's not like those days where i and my cousin were still youngs, and play, sweet, soft drinks seems to be the most important thing back then..so fun..thinking back, it was quite memorable. Well, given those memories, it's always good to see cousins, relatives gathering together. Back to main topic, i went to bought 2 jeans. It's super cheap, one for $49.90 and two for $65. Of cos i will buy two, furthermore, their design were not bad.

After that, i and don proceed to Topman, whereby i wanted to buy a long sleeve tee-shirt. Found one but couldn't find my appropiate size. Perhaps this warns me of something - GYM GYM GYM!! Well, i wanted to try out the shirt but the queue for fitting the clothes were long. So i give up the idea, but Don asked me just to wait , anyway we have plenty of time. When i was queuing up, i notice a pattern of queuing. There were two rows, one row of the left, one row on the right. Those on the right were queuing to try out the apparels, whereas those on the left are the GF/s / friends or kin memebers that wanted to see how they 'fare' in try-out apparels, it's kinda funny to see such a situation.

After that, went to meet MunHoe and went to whack balls. I didn't lose this time, instead i drew with MunHoe and Donovan won. I did not have to treat him drinks (Ultimate loser will have to treat the Ultimate WINNER, in this case, there were no ultimate loser as we drew). After pool, it back to home sweet home whereby i played SWAT 4 with Don. Hmm...i feel more like brother with him already...Don, Ask your mum get ready a room for her god-son..

Oh ya, did i mention anything about Maple this week? MAPLE HAS 3RD JOB!!!!!!!!!! And omg!! The 3rd job is super strong. I got ks (kill steal) by those strong people and i'm in a difficult situation as Cleric is already lousy enough, plus mine is the especialy lousy one cos i added the stats wrongly. My friend was asking me to give it up but i spend months playing it and it's seriously a pity to give it up, so i intend to continue playing it and meanwhile, i'll continue training it, and after i graduate, i'll train another. That means more maple and less err....don't know what..haa!!

Time for me to go, bb!

Woohoo....Finally, The Strokes album is out. I've got all the 14 songs already!! They are cool and certainly more dynamic than ever. Natural Objection has chosen 2 songs to play. 1st one Jesus of Surburbia and the 2nd song is Song 2 which you are currently hearing now in my blog. Feeling excited over it. As it's always fun to go jamming around.

Went playing pool just now, and also watch movie. My interest for pool has certainly grown better and so is my skills...err...or maybe not..haa..no matter what, i was thinking of getting a cue stick in near future. So in i-pod Nano. I must get a full-time job right after i graduate.

Wednesday is my presentation..much are not done yet..going to chiong all the way tml..so meanwhile, shall slack and play..WOOHOO!!!!

Song 2

Woo-hoo! (x4)

I got my head checked

By a jumbo jet

It wasn't easy

But nothing is, no

Woo-hoo, When I feel heavy metal

Woo-hoo, And I'm pins and I'm needles

Woo-hoo, Well, I lie and I'm easy

All of the time but I'm never sure why I need you

Pleased to meet you

I got my head down

When I was young

It's not my problem

It's not my problem

Woo-hoo, When I feel heavy metal

Woo-hoo, And I'm pins and I'm needles

Woo-hoo, Well, I lie and I'm easy

All of the time but I'm never sure why I need you

Pleased to meet you

Yeah yeah (x3)

Oh yeah

Today was extremely a good day. But it has a bad start...as i said a efw days ago to myself, i am determined to reach sch punctually. Today i failed. Felt bad about it, got influenced by my friend. It's still my fault. In the end, i only attended the 2nd lecture. Went to sch and surprised to see my classmate, Muz, going to class too..haa..I'm starting to get back to normal, mood getting better and lighter. Back to study mode, maybe abit more of gaming mode..Handed in an assignment today. I must say that my drawing is showing improvement, not that i'm shameless praising myself but i have always been poor at drawing and i'm just glad to see that it's improving. As usual, Practice makes PERFECT! How true can that be.

Went to Anne's house to hand her the assignment and get my pay and my buddies's pay for their behalf as they are slogging their life off in army. Finally, i richer than what i am a few weeks ago. But i know, i'm the kind of person who will make that bank balance go to its DANGER ZONE again. As one of my New Year Resolutions is to spend less and save more, i shall try to restrain and control, spending less on what is not necessary.

Here comes the best part of today, what makes me most happy. I'm so glad and happy to see my ex-classmate again. She left for Canada and study a few years ago, and i actually met her today on my way home just before i left Spanish Village (The place where my lady boss stayed and suprisingly, the place where my ex-classmate stays also). Almost couldn't regconise her, was kinda shocked when i saw her..The world is indeed very small.. Gave each other a small hug and started chatting away. Asking each other how's life, etc...She's has got her Degree and is currentlt working. Felt so happy for her and sincerly wish her all the best. Hope to meet up one day. Argh, she forget to sms me her number..Bad bad bad..shall msn her and pester her!!

When i reached CCK, banking in the cheque, rain started to pour, i was soaking wet, drenched like a soak chicken. Reached home and then chiong my maple le..wahha...Finally i level up! And finally bought my level 48 and 50 amour and weapon..but in the end, i left 60k only. From 2 million to 60k!! Oh, it's getting more and more difficult to play...=_=!! Nevertheless, i'm finding more fun in this game. Hmm....shall resume my game now..

Recently, or i should say this year, is considered a bad start..often wondering to myself, is this going to be another bad year for me? 2005 is certainly one of my worst year in my life..i couldn't sleep at all on 2nd Jan. I slept at 5am, woke up at 6:30pm..i felt so troubled..Worry for my project, my studies, my future and my money..at wee hours of that time, i tried to browse through my mobile phone, one by one, all were assumed to be sleeping by then , until i broswe to Mildred..haa..that girl is certainly not an early sleep, an 'owl' i would say. Feeling troubled and plenty to pour out, i poured out to her and our chat last a while, before she going off to study again and me tossing and turning on bed.

Reached sch about 7:55am that day, the earliest i ever reached in my Year 3. Wahaha..i already got warning letter from the school. I cannot afford to miss any more lessons or i might have to repeat sch one more Year which i certainly don't want. I want to concentrate on my studies during this critial month - which means no work, less games, less outings and more studies!! I manage to finish what's supposed to be completed in 2 weeks, in 4-5 hours. Aren't i great? haa..not really actually cos nothing great can be completed within that short span of time. Nevertheless, i manage to complete.

Today went to school abit late, even though for the alarm CLOCKS i have..I have two normal alarm clock, one mobile alarm and 3 human alarm clock which is Donovan , Jonathan and my cousin. Thanks to some, i managed to reach school on time on the 1st day of school and only slightly later on the 2nd day.

Tomorrow, i'm going to get my pay. Hopefuly after paying off my 'debts', i will still be left some money and i'm going to save it up just in case of rainy days!! I've experienced enuff for the past few weeks, feeling like a beggar and thanks to my friends, i can still behave like a human being who still has that pocket filled with a few notes and coins..wahah...Tml is another submission, i shall finish up my last part of it now...woooo

HaPPY New Year All readers!! Haa, i know this came abit late, but i hasn't been able to find time to write a post until now. I've been enjoying, having fun and partying since New Year Eve..This time round, the New Year Eve countdown celebration and party was the best i ever been in my life. We chose a party which was organise by Zouk called Mambo Jambo.

That day, we went to Marina Square 1st. Had our dinner there and afterwards it's Andersens Ice Cream at Suntec City. That's where my cousin came to join in too. Order a Sundae 1st, afterwards came two bowl of big ice-cream. That's the free ice-cream that Jonathan claimed. I don't like the flavour so it was finished up by Jon, Don, Gav and my cousin. After that, we went to meet up with MunHoe. We went to City Hall Mrt station to meet MunHoe. That mrt was super crowded. Maybe's it's because it's New Year Eve. So met up with MunHoe, and the 6 of us proceed to Singapore Expo where the Party was held.

The moment we reached Singapore Expo, we found 7-11. So we started buying coke. For what u may ask, we intend to mix it with the Vodka that me and Donovan brought. Donovan brought 1/3 of vodka of that vodka bottle whereas i brought nearly 1/2. So we started mixing the drinks together and started drinking. Didn't realising that the 1st one is too strong, i started mixing the other two with my own accord. In the end, all 3 drinks turn out to be too strong. Some cannot take it, like Jonathan! Wahaha..as it was already 11pm, one hour after the party started, we played game to finish drinks fast. Jon joined us only for a few rounds and he quits as he couldn't take it anymore. His face tells us so (His face was as red as an apple, and i'm telling the truth). Then as we played, we drank and drank, until all the vodka was poured. Afterwards, Don couldn't tahan, so was MunHoe. We went toilet to wash up and then we proceed to the party area. While walking there, Gavian and me was busying drinking, still trying to finish up. I almost vommited and finally i threw that bit of drink away as i couldn't take it anymore. The reason why we drank before we went in is because we want to get abit high 1st before we started dancing.

So in we went and we started partying, i and Gavian were super high as both of us drank the most. Not long after, it's 10, 9, 8......3, 2, 1!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! Suddenly there was a high climax and everyone started sending sms and greeted each other. After dancing for a while more, we move to another spot as there ain't many people to dance with, especially pretty girls..wahaha..There were hunks and babes all around in that party with very very nice music. The music was the best thing in this whole party. Suddenly music stops. A few people started walking towards the platform and guess who it was. It's sheik Haikel ( don't know how to spell the name) and JAMIE YEO!! Wwow, jamie yeo is such a babe. So tall, yet so slim and pretty. A wonderful girl. After that, we continue partying and towards 3,4am, most of us started to get tired. Only Gavian and my cousin continue dancing and soon, it was 4am. The whole party ended and we proceed to the MRT to wait for the 1st train.

Boarded the 1st train at 6am, and then we went to ckk for breakfast before heading for head individually. Reached home near 8 plus, legs were aching from the excessive walking and dancing. Woke up at 4pm and then went to do my project, ARGH, i got lots sch work not done yet, doesn't have the mood to do it. Still manage to do abit before eating dinner - Chilli Crabs. My dad cooked Chilli Crabs today and it was superb. Then i joined Jon and Don for their dinner. We went Geylang to have Frogs legs Porridge. I used to eat before 2 years ago i we went around searching for it as i couldn't really remember the shop and street name, in the end, we couldn;t find it and settled for a frog leg porridge store. A sastifying meal at last..After that we went to look for a beancurd shop and while walking, we walked past the frog leg porridge shop which i visited 2 years ago..argh!! Haha, never mind, we'll eat it after Chinese New Year.

So we went to play pool before heading for supper and went home. This festive season certainly bind us together closer and i really enjoy my buddies company. Gavian has been MIA recently because of other commitment - wooing a girl!! Haha..i shall wish him all the best and if you are reading this, Don't be pessimistic and don't give up! Way to go!!

I also felt closer to my sis, ever since she came back from Hong Kong and when we last went out, We smsed each other everyday and i'm really glad to have her as my sis..Sibling forever

New year shall have new resolutions! Before i proceed, i shall read off the horoscope readings of mine for this year - Scorpio. My sis checked this for me.

Scorpio:

Wealth: I need to look after my own wallet as i most probably will be spending alot and it's better not to invest in anything.

Love life: If i manage to find my other one this year, our relationship will progress very fast and we'll be very close to each other. Telling her my troubled matters will also help improve the relationship.

Studies: Not bad, but just don;t panic during exams (Which i don't have! Mine is a project-based course, HOORAY)

Health: Health iasn't very good this year, checkups is recommended to prevent big sickness.

PS: Don't keep troubled matters to myself, must open up.

New Year Resolutions:

1. Graduate successfully this year. (Feburary!!!)
2. Taste of my 2nd love life. (1st one ain't enough to let me know what is love)
3. Having better relationship with my buddies, family and Sister. (I can't live without them)
4. Easier Army Life. (PES C, PES C, PES C)
5. Best Birthday Party in My Whole Life ( 21st Birthday leh )
6. Pass My Driving Test ( Pls God!!)
7. Be a better person! (I'm still growing, u know)
8. More money (this doesn't mean i want to make more money or strike lottery, but it means Saving of more money and Spending of less!)
9. Make a memorable birthday for my parents and hopefully my brother. (Past few years ain't interesting enough)
10. Go Hong Kong. (I want to go countries Beyond Thailand!!!!!)

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!!
