Testing 1,2,3,3,2,1.
Houston, we have touchdown.

i'll just bite my tongue and look away.

And I suppose that's the price you pay,
Oh it isn't what it was,
She's thinking he looks different today,
And oh there's nothing left to guess now,

2007-05-14T22:07:00.000+08:00

if i died tonight, what would i be remembered as?

we are the kings.

2007-04-04T21:38:00.000+08:00

we had a backside boys(minus 1) meet up in the day.
it was the usual eat cum slack cum talk crap outing, as per norm.
to think back, its been 3 years since we all got to know each other.
the very first day being the course orientation.
fast forward till today, its still the same old us.
-
the only difference is that unlike the first time we met,
we have finished the path where we were walking along together.
meaning, in the near future, we will all set on our own journey.
that is, inclusive of myself as well.
-
so as i was sitting with the guys, while listening to buble's home,
i asked myself. what do people live for in this life.
-
is it to drive a big luxurious car, and live in a big home.
or is it to bring home just enough to feed themself and the family.
do the people live to give back to the society and help the community.
or do the people live just focused on things that is for their best interest.
do they live to make a difference in their lifetime,
or do they just live their life silently, without notice.
do people live to pursue what they truly belief in.
or do people live just accepting whatever that life brings them.
so, what do people seek in life.
-
these questions, for a moment there, clouded my mine.
perhaps i should be asking these questions now, or should i?
after all, i have to 'waste' away 2 years of my life.
and until then, i can't do much about it.
all i can do now is just layout the plans.
-
just like how i now plan to spend the days before being enlisted.
that is, i intend to enjoy those days and do the things that i doubt i will be able to when i'm already in.
for starters, it would be the impromptu trip to malacca,
thanks to kevinballs' ingenious idea.
even though its just a 1 night affair, i'd settle for that than none.
who know's there's other trips in the near future.
also, im gonna work hard as well to earn the dough.
likewise, im gonna party hard as well. :)
okbyeearthlings.
-
making coffee, still for now.
but hoi polloi is still in my sights.

just a little bit

2007-04-02T23:21:00.000+08:00

as of today, 2nd april 2007, he turns 39!
the buddy who's been with me for 6 years and counting now.
he never fails to crack me up with his old antics,
though he can get annoying at times with his not-so-intelligent actions.
but you know its just him.
so, Adrian Albert Mole, i wish you the best in life and the things that you pursue.
happy 39th birthday, fictitious pal.
-
i woke up sobbing and with tears in my eyes.

saturday night.

2007-04-01T22:37:00.000+08:00

i was looking through the trailers for the upcoming movies on yahoo.
i chanced upon this picture of a movie with adam sandler on it.

this was so unlike the usual adam sandler image that he carried.
the movie detail seemed rather interesting and i continued with the trailer.
and boy, i must say, the trailer itself is really moving.
Reign Over Me.
-
the story revolves around 2 old friends that turned out they need each other.
that is a very true reflection of life by itself.
for myself, the very least.
i have to say as for myself, i do need a good dosage of friends.
-
i remember during my anti-social days, i didn't have a large circle of friends.
that didn't matter for me though, as 1 very good friend would suffice.
needless to say, we were like twins.(not visually really. he is big. very big)
we did all sorts of things together.
movies, the occasional underaged pool session(not yet 16 then),
lan gaming, the arcade, the table tennis sessions(im very good at it),
the food hunting, the stay overs, the badminton sessions,
the occasional chinese chess and carrom(correct or not huh?) sessions
and even our own personal jokes.
we grew up together, from primary school up to our teenage years.
so much so that he knows almost everything during my growing up years.
its pleasant to look back and reminisce bout the good old days that i had.
especially when its filled with so colorful memories.
-
back to the topic of having friends, i believe i am now blessed with a healthy number of them.
many of whom i can rely on and turn to in times of need.
and even though some do tend get on my nerves at times, thats just the nature of things i guess.
cause i myself have my fair share as well.
-
moving on, i must say, i had a great time yesterday.
right from the start that i met up with the nyonya till the time i reach home.
the company i had was just fantastic.
-
talking to viv on her trip to europe and sharing my own experience brought back wonderful memories of my own trip.
i shan't go into details of my own trip(not now that is).
but when u go to rome, venice, barcelona, and half of france, u truly have a story to tell.
and boy was i all ears yesterday.
how i dream of having such trip in my lifetime, but thinking of the total amount spent already made my stomach queasy.
-
the boogeying last night was very much fun as well.
even though it was the first time that the bunch even met, let alone go boogey, i must say we clicked quite well.
i dun mind doing it again! nyehahaha.
-
and for the record, i got behind the wheels of an automatic car.
it felt awkward at first without the clutch and the use of the shift stick.
but i managed to grasp hold of it after a while.
-
so it was a wonderful weekend for me.
how bout yours?
-
how lucky some people are, born with a silver spoon in their mouth.
now he's driving a gallardo.

2007-03-26T22:02:00.000+08:00

hola. for something very random,
i saw 5 rx8s on the road coming back home.
does that make them really affordable?
or am i just talking crap?
the latter definitely.
-
i rung up the cmpb enlistment hotline in the day,
hoping that they would shed some light on my enlistment date.
thankfully, im not enlisted. not anytime soon. yet.
the next enlistment would be in June.
so as for now, i have to keep working my ass off to make the desired holiday for myself a reality. -
but how do i save up when i have to spend so much on fines.
within a week, i had to fork out 85 bucks just for parking fines.
to think about it, it is rather ridiculous to give away money so easily.
its even more ridiculous, of the manner in which i was fined.
on both occasions, for the fine on the car, the carpark was empty. almost.
there were 3, or at most 5 cars at the point of time.
and both the carparks were at a rather secluded area.
i guess 'secluded area' does not exist in the parking attendent's dictionary.
neither does it exist for the goverment as well.
and as for the fine on the bike, it was as though the parking attendant had already eyed to fine it beforehand.
i only left the bike for about half and hour and was greeted with a fine worth 25bucks when i returned.
the irony was that i parked the bike at my own parking lot and had valid parking coupon.
but because it wasn't in the slot but parked by the side of the road i was punished.
talk about being unfairly treated. bleargh.
with that, im no longer a virgin to fines for the bike after a year plus plus with it.
-
last saturday was the graduation night dinner and dance.
just one word to sum out that very night.
absofuckenlutelyfantastic.
fun and enjoyment was more of the theme of the night.
and i had barrels of them.
too bad i only got runner up for the best dressed contest.
(but it was more of the best pole dancer =/ )
cheers for the organizers. (i was suppose to help out. but being the busy guy i am, i didn't)
even more cheers for the fellow mates who joined in the after party.
pianto, lon siew, apiss and yeo's. u guys are quite a kaki lah. haha.
-
so everything's going smoothly for me as for now.
looking forward to receive my hard earn dough (and to see it slip out of my hands so so easily).
and also the yet-to-confirm farbucks chalet.
lastly, not forgetting, the birthday of my beloved old friend.
adrian albert mole. he turns 39 on 2nd april.
-
bye earthlings.

ahpek, yishun please.

2007-03-19T12:56:00.000+08:00

i was driving back home in the morning just now and
the djs from power 98 were discussing on drivers on the road.
i couldn't agree more to their final conclusion.
that is (pardon me but seriously, im not being sexist) female drivers are horrible drivers!
apparently, i've ever mentioned it in crappyshit before.
it seems that i can't emphasize it more!
-
for every reckless car being driven on the road,
2/3 of the time, it belongs the hands of a female driver.
well, the remaining 1/3 of the time, are the male drivers.
here are the specific categories of drivers who, by my very own opinion,
are deemeed reckless drivers.
a) some kid who just got his license.
b) some guy driving a 3litres(or more) sportscar and utilising every bit of it.
c) the rich old ahpek driving his S500 or a 7-series beemer.
d) the alonso and massa wannabes.
e) the general population of the female drivers.
f) anyone on the phone while driving.
-
however, the most reckless driver on the road ever, has got to be taxi drivers.
they are, hands down, the most cursed at drivers among all road users.
personally, i feel that their driving is so bad,
it doesn't make any difference if you throw a person without
any driving license behind the wheels.
cause in reality, their driving is that bad.
its as good as they are not being educated about road safety at all.
their ignorance is just intolerable.
it seems that most (when i say most, i consider more than 90%)
of these taxi drivers have certain weird ways of seeing/reading things(in blue).
for example:
amber/blinking green light = its still ok to go. just beat it.
90km/h = its just a number. doesn't mean anything.
lane markings = dotted lines on the road. doesn't mean anything.
signal lights = redundant feature. not much importance. don't have to use.
people flagging for a cab by the road = MONEY. get to the side of the road before any other cab does at all cost. even by means of dangering and risking other people's life.
motorcylist = make their life as difficult as possible.
these are how taxi drivers view things, in my own perception.
-
road issues aside, let's get on to different things.
on a lighter note, my run of watching good movies have been extended to 4.
Stomp the Yard, being the final addition, after
The Pursuit of Happyness, Letters From Iwo Jima and 300.
i was bracing myself for a letdown before the show started.
(just like how Step Up did)
however, stomp the yard managed to twist around the typical storyline.
and because of that, it simply made the movie a better one.
with that, i hope to continue the run of watching good movies.
that means choosing the upcoming movies to watch wisely.
-
To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe.

this is the first post.

2007-03-15T00:58:00.001+08:00

the case of having alot, yet, at the same time,
having none at all. how ironic, yes?
thats the reality of things. so like it or not, it'll remain likewise.
-
so this is where the melodramatic mumbo jumbo ends.
-
its been awhile since i abandoned the previous blog (read, crappyshit).
ive decided to jump into the blogging bandwagon once more.
this time round, i'll try to type juicier and more entertaining posts.
-
current status - still alive(not quite kicking though)
been busy with mainly work and nyonya.
yes. the pathetic, lowly, underpaid work.
but since that's the only way to bring in the dough,
then somebody's got to the job.
-
that apart, here is the list of some of the things i wish i could do.(note, wish)
1. go for a holiday before the letter arrives.
2. go for a part time marketing course.(which i hope i could finish before the letter arrives. of which is virtually impossible)
3. read a whole pile of good humored books.
4. something i can't really recall.
5. go for a holiday before the letter arrives.
-
next are the list of things i wish i could have.(note, wish)
1. memories of a nice holiday i had gone for.
2. a marketing diploma/certificate.
3. an endless supply of good humored books.
4. tons of cds/dvds to start my own collection with.
5. decent pair of shoe(s).
-
wishes will remain as wishes i suppose.
not unless i do something to fulfill them.
so until any of the wishes becomes a reality,
i'll just be working this ass of mine off.
-
with that, i shall end the very first entry of this new blog.
