I lose interest in things extremely fast nowadays.

5 traits I find attractive in women

2011-06-14T21:31:00.008+08:00

Sometime ago I came up with a a list of traits in women that always catches my attention.

Years passed and people changes, so now here is an updated list of things that I find attractive in women.

Note* not in any particular order

1] Green and WhiteAs an extension of my love for the Boston Celtics, any chicks decked in the green and white deserves a second look. Even better if they support the Boston Celtics too. Celtics for champion in 2012!

2] Long wavy hairIt was short hair in the old list. But now I seem to prefer long wavy hair.

3] Long hair swept to one side
I find this look incredibly hot! sizzzzzling. Btw this lady is maria menuenos die-hard celtics supporter.

4] Someone who laughs a lot
I think this is a common trait that I look for in friends as well.

5] Energetic

I can be energetic If I want to, but most of the time I'm just too lazy to make the conscious effort. Being around energetic people gives me energy hehe.

-_- vs ^_^

I was cutting hair just now and looking myself in the mirror, I realized my normal facial expression is something like this

-_-

Seems kinda unfriendly.

I guess, this must be the reason why people are always apprehensive of starting a conversation with me.

After 5 mins of silence.... the hairstylist finally started talking to me, then my facial expression changed to this ^_^.

When I'm alone think hard about a lot of stuff, planning ahead and pondering over questions people asked me weeks/months ago, so 90% of the time I have the -_- ....

But I'm not really unfriendly, infact I find myself overly friendly to most people, that sometimes they get scared.

..
..
.....

Life sucks when you have an unfriendly face.

1 2 3

2011-05-17T00:50:00.003+08:00

1] Not feeling good these days. I think I am slightly depressed and a little bit too angsty.

2] Must learn to keep my fiery temper down.

3] Need to feel good again.

Have good parents and your life is set. Sucky ones? You are screwed.

The long and short..

2011-04-17T21:47:00.002+08:00

Seems like the blogging fever has died down. I guess twitter and facebook have took over blogs as an easier and more convenient way of sharing one's personal life.

Even famous bloggers are decreasing their frequency of updating their blogs.

Yep, I'm finding excuse to justify my lack of updates. Its call the "other people are doing this too, so its ok" method.

.....

Work's kinda stable now, no surprises and nothing too difficult. I guess having a nice boss makes everything hell lot easier.

.....

I'm terribly annoyed when people keep pestering me to make decisions.

Simple things like

"what time you want to go eat?"
"where you want to go?"
"where you want to meet?"
"when you want this to be done?"
"what do you want to eat?"

very irritating. .... I'm not the fountain of knowledge with all the answers in the world. Make some god damm decisions yourself.

.....

Recently its has been brought to my attention again, that I'm kinda weird. The spectrum of different personalities that I have is confusing as hell. Not just for others, but for myself as well.

New post

Long time no see, been real busy with the new Job, can't really share much about it.

Life's been revolving around Bball, work, RT and Sleep...

Glad that there's still bball which I depend so much on to retain what little sanity I have left.

Its a crazy world.

Passed IPPT,

Chin Up - 12
Shuttle run - 9.7s
Sit up - 40
SBJ - 243cm
2.4 - 11.29mins

A huge improvement over last year. I did prepared for chin up, so I was pretty confident of passing it. Improvement on the rest of the stations was however, a pleasant surprise. I guess the RT did helped.

Or perhaps much of the damaged done to my health by NS has healed.

Pissed

2011-01-16T13:42:00.002+08:00

Being too nice and tolerating shit from people makes them think that they can say or do whatever they want.

I have an amazing threshold for tolerating insensitive remarks or even insults, because It is my ultimate resolution to be nice and forgiving.

But if people push me over my limit, the resulting outburst will be of biblical proportion, I swear that they will feel the full carnage of my wrath. I seldom reach that limit, but that doesn't mean I will never.

In my younger days, I have fought with people, gotten into police station, tore up my school uniform and did many other things due to poor anger management.

I have a vicious tongue that I keep under control. I always tell people straight up that they have reach my "limit" before anything happens.

Truth is I hate things turning ugly, I ever told off a best friend so badly that he never contacted me after.

2011=)

2011-01-02T23:46:00.011+08:00

Ok I know... Another long MIA session. Had a few things in mind that I wanted to note down but just couldn't find the motivation to do so.

Perhaps it's a Marcoms thing, day in day out I had to forced myself to write long paragraphs/articles of bullshit that now I find myself nauseate at having to write anything more than a paragraph.

...

The Xmas and New Year celebrations were splendid as usual. Steamboat and the rip-off ah tiong KTV session had us feeling satisfied knowing that once a year we let ourself lose to be scammed and fattened, effectively neutralizing all the hardwork in the gym and the pennies slogged from the mundane office work.

2011

Its the start of a new year

I'm always envy people that are able to compile a list of significant things that they have done or were part of in the past year.

I live such a boring life that probably nobody would give a shit to what I've done, but nevertheless I will compile a list of 10 significant events/activities for my year 2010. Why 10? because its 2010.

Starting with

1] Clubbed for the first time.

I know, boohooo.... so old already still never go club before... puiz....but yea....Went to club for the first time in my life, didn't get drunk but had a few friends who did. Kopi gia and his gf who both vomited on me and also in the taxi. Making the ABNN uncle quite angry.

Watched in awe, when kopi gia vomitted a puddle of matter that looked just like baby food and proceeded to hold onto a nearby railing and ran on the spot like a hamster in an exercise wheel. Awesome sight to behold.

2] Organized and Participated in a fund raising campagin
It was fun to camp outside central library waiting to pounce on unsuspecting friends for donation. Hardwork and time consuming, but at least it was meaningful.

3] Kimseng CSC

Played a full 40 mins game of competitive basketball without substitution. Its been a freaking 6 long years since I last did that. Performance lwasn't all that good, but I felt fitter than the past 5 years added together. I guess the frequent jogs and upper body exercises does helps.

4] Got a Job and quitted a Job
Got a Job fast and quitted it even faster. It was one of the long point of my life and I hated that feeling. Thanks to friends who helped me pull through.

This incident made me think and see what I've not seen previously. To the one that gave me such tremendous support, I'm forever grateful.

5] Bike quested

Bike quested again, this time round we didn't even manage to complete half the journey. Probably due to edison's weight gain and also our another buibui friend. 2 buibuis and hardcore cycling just doesn't go well together.

6] Beach Captain's ball

Joined the Beach Captain's ball competition organized by NUS. Got my face fried by the sun and was eliminated by cheaters.Not cool.

7] Graduated

Graduated.

End of all constantly unsuccessful attempts to pull up my CAP after a disappointing year 1. Well to be fair to myself, my cap did went up as the sems went by albeit at a pathetic and less than ideal pace.

8] O2b1 Gathering
Attended the class gathering and surprised our form teacher by informing her that I was the assistant class-rep. 6 years late but better than never knowing.

9] GOT served the saf264

For being late for 3 RT sessions and denied entry into the camp. Was charge but the fine was waived off because the officer said that 'solider you are still very young and have a very long way to go"

Saved my $50 but its even more demoralizing to know that I still "have a long way to go" =(

10] Almost strike lottery

Instead of 1303, 1202 came out. I hate near misses like this.

Ok thats it for 2010. Pretty boring rite...?

I love ah ji ji

2010-11-19T11:48:00.002+08:00

I always knew I've got a flair for Arts. The Cs and B minuses I got from my various art teachers is definitely not a fair representation of my artistic talent.

I remember in secondary there was this assignment for our Arts and Craft classes. We were suppose to design some postcard thingy for our friend/relative who is going on a holiday.

Back then, "Titantic" was the all the rage in town. Boys love the big ship and girls went all crazy over Leonardo Di Caprio. So I drew Titantic and wrote in bold red crayons "Bon Voyage".

As it turned out the teacher wasn't so impressed. I bet she didn't like Titantic because she took my postcard and showed it to the class and told us how inappropriate it is to wish our relative "the same fate as the Titantic".

Tsk Tsk.

I forgive her for her mere mortal mind was not able to comprehend the beauty of death and. Death is the only continuity. It transcends time.

On another occasion, I was paired up with some other guy to draw a poster for some Civics and Moral issues. After we were assigned the task, the guy went on MC for a few days and I did everything myself.

I thought that It was a stupid assignment because Civics and Moral Education is stupid, so I wrote a nonsensical sentence at the bottom of the poster "I love ah jiji".

This time round the teacher was very impressed with my work, he even requested us to present it to the class.

I told the other guy to present as he was freeloading off me. So he did and the teacher said

"Very good!.......... But what is this ah Ji Ji"

My partner immediately looked towards me for an answer and I looked away.

Being the smart guy he is, he said "Its CME in chinese". The class burst out laughing. My teacher was an indian/arab.

well well.

2010-11-18T21:03:00.002+08:00

Well well, I must put a full stop.

Sado kun

2010-11-13T23:48:00.004+08:00

*warning* Massive updates ahead.

I'm vexed even though I got out of the hell hole that I was in. Coz, Its not about work

I am seriously sadden.........I do not tell anyone some of my secrets because doing so actually makes me feel very vulnerable. For some unknown reason, I often feel the need to armor myself.

I know people initially often find me "ice cold" and seemingly unapproachable, because I have this "I'm not interested in anything" look. And that's something I am conciously working on to change. But the hardest part is that I do not know if I am really not interested in most stuffs or is it that my natural expression just looks so.

But I often find myself day dreaming halfway through a conversation or during a group discussion. I guess that's a bad habit.

Not exactly in a joyous mood, but looking forward is what I should do.

--------

Met up with the Marcoms alumni and we had a great time at KTV. Sometimes I feel very fortunate that I got to meet such great people and have them as my colleagues.

If it wasn't for them I wouldn't even be able to make it pass the 3months mark.

Cheers to the alumni.

----

Post work life has been great so far, stepping up my exercise regime and being able to nurse my health back makes me feel revitalized. Basketball is a lot more fun these days with the new pair of shoes. I guess I shouldn't be so cheapo on some things. An Adidas v.s free/torn/frictionless/army brooks running shoes makes a hell lotta difference.

----

Been thinking of taking up cooking lessons, because I feel that I know better what taste good than most of hawkers that do not take pride in their work.

----

Was swimming the other day and saw an elderly couple bringing their grandson to swimming lessons. I never had the fortune of being doted by my grandparents. Being the middle grandson, I'm not the first nor the youngest which I presume are often taken care of like precious treasure. I'm just "one of the grandchild".

Not exactly bad, as I do not get spoiled neither do I receive any academic pressure. I guess its a fair trade for alot more freedom and and chance to learn to be independent.

I think it was a surprise to them when they knew that I got into university because I was mostly forgotten and was never expected to do well in my studies. Pretty awesome feeling hiak hiak =)

But my grandparents were not longer around to see me graduate... how sad =(

----

I know I have been neglecting the blog again. ahh bad bad habit... need to blog more often.

The regret.

2010-10-10T21:41:00.002+08:00

Sometimes I make some decisions that I know I will regret. But I still go ahead with them. I wonder why.

must be the Taurus +Ox stubbornness.

nice

2010-10-08T23:50:00.002+08:00

Bball season is over for now. The last match was exceptionally fun with us having only 5 players vs the opponent's full squad. Our players are mostly in camp or overseas, haiz.

I'm very proud of the 5 of us. Having to play 40 mins game without rest is no joke. We even managed to keep the scoreline close enough until the 4th quarter before we started falling apart due to fatigue.

Well well, most importantly everybody fought hard. I'm glad that this season ended with this epic game.

Cheers to all.

sometimes oh sometimes

2010-10-07T23:39:00.000+08:00

Sometimes you have to lose something before realizing how good it is.

Depression

2010-10-05T22:46:00.003+08:00

You answered 10 items out of 10 "Yes". According to The National Mental Health Association, 5 or more yes answers indicates that you may be suffering from clinical depression. This test cannot substitute for a visit to a mental health professional. It is meant only to give you an idea where to start a dialogue with your healthcare provider.

I need mental health professional's help, I have never felt so "broken" before. Its so bad that I get this sadness while waiting for bus, taking the MRT, eating, before sleeping and even in my dreams. I can feel myself psychologically falling apart.

I don't even know what I am doing anymore, my mind is always thinking of sadness. My memory span gets shorter and shorter. It is seriously that bad. I skipped basketball last Friday feeling exhausted, lethargic.

I cant even finish my food.

A decision that is hard to make.

2010-10-04T21:09:00.003+08:00

I've made my decision. I lost my passion, my smile and what little confidence that I have. This is breaking me and I'm not gonna let it continue to do so.

Bye.

The worker

2010-10-03T23:09:00.003+08:00

Been working for a month now and I feel hollowed out.

Monday- Friday = Work from 8.30am -5.40pm facing the computer.

After work its either TV, BBALL or computer games.

Weekend I'm just too exhausted, I sleep late, wake up late and hikikomori at home.

Seriously, I feel more like a hikikomori than when I was a student. This is terrible, I need to make a change. I give myself a deadline, starting tomorrow I shall enrich my life by actively seeking activities.

Call me weird, I actually got more "kick" studying Socrates, Plato, Freudian, Orgy Sorai, Ito Jinsai and whoever was that guy that came up with the theory of inversion.

This hollow-out feeling sucks. One month zips by so fast and I can barely recall anything memorial happening.

Pathetic, I got my Pay and I wasn't extremely happy like how I imagined I would be. In fact it was more like a sense of relief knowing that I do not have to calculate my expenses so painfully that I even have to consider twice even buying a packet of sweets.

My pay for this month is basically still intact, I guess thriftiness is something imbued into me. I don't spend on anything unnecessarily, but ironically, I do occasionally fall victim to commercial branding and consumerism. Contradictory yea, i know.

I've been thinking a lot now, not knowing how my future will unfold, with the question still hanging - is this the right job for me?

Emotionally, I guess this empty space left by the previous person is yet to be filled up still. Just yesterday I exhausted the list of sci-fi movies on PPstream and resorted to lower my taste to watching chick flicks like "He's just not that into you", I was shock to see some reflection of me in the characters. I guess chick flicks sometimes is indeed very educational lol.

Well well, tomorrow is Monday yet again. God save me :(

A.I

2010-09-19T23:28:00.002+08:00

Just watched A.I (Artificial Intelligence) by Steven Spielberg, I can't seem to understand why but I'm very much affected by it.

中文篇

2010-08-21T22:14:00.003+08:00

中文越来越差，也许是受到Edison不好的影响。正所谓近朱者赤，近墨者黑。语文这种东西本来就因该常常练习。

还记得前阵子看了Tom Hanks 所主演的荒岛流浪记。几年不曾和人说话的Tom Hanks回到美国，再度投入社会已几乎失去语言以及那被我们当成是理所当然的人与人之间的沟通能力。

。。。。

前阵子所学的日语已忘的七七八八了。感觉所有的辛苦都白费了。那一周七小时的时间以及无穷无尽的日语练习作业都已付諸流水。

感慨阿。。。人生有多少个七小时能这样挥霍。

突然想用中文blog因为自觉中文还有待进步。

最近感觉很多人一味盲目学习外语，殊不知自己身为华人，自身的母语却烂得可笑。我不怪他们。这都是媒体一再重复报道某些成功人士精通多种语言，再加以套上虚假的光环的结果。错误引导大众认为精通多种语言是个人能力的象征。

我一向来都不信一个人能精通多种语言。这些人顶多就是对某些外语有些肤浅的认知。要用到精通来形容根本就是夸大其辞。

就拿中文来当例子。中文不仅仅是文字，里头还包括了中国四千年的文化。这是一辈子也无法“精通”的。有的人花一辈子就为了研究中文。试问这些人怎么能精通并了解多种语言？

在这里我想说的是，多学习各种语文固然是件好事。尤其是在这个环球化的时代，外语能力能提高个人竞争力，以及开阔更多能得到娱乐以及休闲的管道。

但是请大家还是别忽略了的亲爱的母语，好好练习吧!
。。。

I remember this chapter in the primary school pets course book. It was about the Trojan Horse. The supposed moral of the story? Be prepared...

It stucked with me ever since.

I might seem like a person without a plan and always going with the flow...but infact I really do plan alot....I even have backup plans for a backup plan.

Korea

2010-08-02T00:54:00.005+08:00

Many go gaga over South Korea's recent pop culture exports which often include hot looking boy/girl bands dancing to a repetitive song while simultaneously crooning out a one or two syllables english worded lyrics.

But, I'm more intrigued by South Korea's less friendly, culturally introverted and sometimes forgotten sibling - North Korea.

The poor North Koreans have absolutely no idea why their "Dear leader" Kim Jong Il is one of the few, if not the only fat guy in their country.

I feel sad for the people living in North Korea, despite them living in 2010 they are still encased in a soviet era time capsule, symbolized by grand gymnastic performance giant monuments, divine worship of leaders and worse of all technology comparable to that era.

However, from the video it would seems that from the decades of information blockade the people are left pure from the contamination of the 21st century. Such simplicity in the way of life would be unlikely to be seen elsewhere in the world. It would definitely be an interesting experience to visit North Korea.

Public relations

2010-07-19T14:26:00.008+08:00

"Adidas is world champion but Nike scored the tournament's winning goal" quoted from The New paper.

As the dust from the World cup settles and we are finally free from the torturous sound emitted from the infamous Vuvuzela, another competition begins. One between that of the sponsors - giant sporting company Nike, Adidas and puma.

The Public Relations war between these 3 found themselves vying for a strong position in this lucrative PR opportuntity, attempts to share the Worldcup glory includes

Adidas : "Adidas is world champion" because apparently they are the main sponsor for Spain.

and Nike manage to damage control by proclaiming

Nike: "The winning goal was scored by a Nike Boot" (Iniesta was wearing Nike boots when he scored against Holland)

and Puma adopted the "little brother" strategy claiming that they have "successfully cemented their number 3 position in the football market".

Interesting...but

In celebrating goals and victory let us also not forget that this world cup is marred by a general lack of sportsmanship, "flying kick" Nigel De Jong is the quintessential example epitomizing team Holland's style of play.
Downing a Nike sponsored jersey Nigel De Jong is the new Karate Kid in town. He gave Xavi Alonso a flying kick right to the middle of Xavi's chest with his "golden boot" from Adidas.

Nike also sponsored the under performing Brazil who fielded the angry leg stomping Felipe Melo

A fiery looking man.

memory pillow

2010-07-16T01:34:00.002+08:00

Memory pillow is the rage these days. For the past few days I've been suffering neckaches because my cheapo pillow from the market sucks.

Got myself a memory pillow and I'm gonna test it in 5 minutes time. I certainly hope it improves my goldfish memory, even if it fails to do so, at least it should relive me from my neckaches.

Good night world!

gearing up.

2010-07-10T00:09:00.003+08:00

Well well....its time for the year again. Last year I suffered the consequences of going to game season unfit.

I will not repeat the same mistake. Its time to start training those shaky legs of mine. I need to focus. That extra lift and the power to push myself a little more would be the determining factor of if I make a shot or shoot an air ball.

I hated myself after my shaky legs didn't allow me to perform. I secretly made a vow last year after the last match that I'm not gonna disappoint myself anymore. I demand a lot from others, so it only make sense that I have to put in extra effort as well.

Rain

2010-07-04T01:30:00.001+08:00

Been raining everyday, I can feel my fats piling up.

2010-07-02T02:47:00.002+08:00

Woke up with a bad headache today.

Past few days extremely lack of sleep.

Waking up at odd timings and can't get back to sleep.

I wonder what's wrong.

I need more sleep -_-"

2010-06-26T08:55:00.002+08:00

For everyone 10 assholes there is always this 1 nice person. Yesterday there was this rich Indian old ah pek whom I chatted with. We spoke about the indian economy, sports industry and everything else.

Before he left he told me

"Thank you sir , you are a very nice person"

I was suprised..and happy at the same time, being a nice person is exactly what I'm striving towards. I don't need people to assure me but its good that once in a while I'm reminded that kindness goes around and being nice makes oneself happy.

To a certain extent he also reduce the prejudice that I have towards Indian customers. Indian customers (from india not local indians) are usually snobbish and rude. I believe its their high power distance culture and them being landlords in india that lead to their snobbish behaviors.

bye....late for work.

Detective

2010-06-24T17:34:00.002+08:00

If anything I am exceptionally good at detecting lies. In fact I'm so good that I seek a career in utilizing this ability of mine.

People sometimes thinks that they are able to fool me but little do they know that most of the time I just played along.

I think its bad but I keep a mental record of who are the liars and I rank them accordingly in terms of trustworthiness. Its part of my over analytical mindset.

Sometimes I just like to act and say stupid things and make other people feel cleverer, just for the fun of it lol.

funny funny

2010-06-22T12:11:00.003+08:00

Saw this on sgforum. Someone was asking others to recommend him hairstyles for guys.

And I saw this reply

"A flat top. That is the hairstyle I've donned for the past 20 years.

My hairstyle and my attitude are farther from today's "mainstream" than wearing a nose ring, using illegal drugs, being a "swinger", or pretending you hate people you don't even know. You'll need to decide for yourself whether I've made the right choices.

As for my fellow flat top men, the haircut seens to say, "I work hard and play hard. I'm a survivor. I am self-sufficient. I live intensely."

The flat top is usually a man's hairstyle. With its harsh lines and angles, a flat top suggests a work ethic, physical fitness, and an intense, serious approach to life.

Flat tops were especially popular in the conservative 1950's, and remain very popular in the military and among policemen. You'll see flat tops worn by high-up professionals and working men, and by guys of all orientations and ethnic backgrounds.

I have noticed that flat tops are especially popular with weight lifters, police officers, and professional military men. All are non-nonsense, self-sufficient, hard-working types.

When I pass a stranger with a flat top, I usually say, "Sir, that's a great haircut!" Almost always, I'll get a smile, and some reply that confirms the common bond among flat top men.

I'd recommend a flat top to all my fellow brothers"

Well well.... read the lines that I highlighted. "farther from today's mainstream" , I would read it as its not fashionable or even outdated... THe poster even realized that himself by saying it "was especially popular in the conservative 1950's". ok 1950s is more than a half a century ago, 60 years to be exact.

"All are non-nonsense, self-sufficient, hard-working types" I can summarize this entire sentence into 1 word, "B O R I N G".

Next............

"When I pass a stranger with a flat top, I usually say, "Sir, that's a great haircut!" Almost always, I'll get a smile, and some reply that confirms the common bond among flat top men."

Psycho forming psychotic bond with his own kind.

late nite.

2010-06-22T00:30:00.003+08:00

Mood : I'm really pissed. I usually makes strong decision that I firmly stick to when I'm really angry, and such decisions often have lifelong impact on my personality. I hope its a good thing.

Well .....I suddenly remembered something which I'm guilty of up till today and occasionally this memory comes back to haunt me and remind me of how much I need to improve myself.

A few years ago, there was this person whom I was working with, she was young and had recently quit school. She wasnt the best worker around but she never gave major problems.

I remember it happened on a payday, me and another colleague saw her carrying many plastic bags. She had just bought alot of stuffs with her pay. The other colleague was badmouthing her to me saying

"aiyah this kind of ppl, get pay only straightaway spend alot, no hope"

Of course I believed what I saw and thought so too.

But during lunch hour, I spoke to her and she showed me the stuffs that she bought. Yes indeed she bought some stuffs for herself, but in the plastic bag there were toys and a kid's wallet.

She had bought them for her siblings.

She said "I promised to buy them these things after I've gotten my first pay"

At that moment I felt so ashamed of myself for judging and looking down on her. It might be considered something trivial to others but memory of this incident stucked with me constantly reminding me not to judge and look down on others.

2010-06-18T01:53:00.002+08:00

Yesterday while playing bballing at tiong, we were losing and one of my teammate someone told me to "出手leh". He meant to ask me to start scoring...

Recently I've been hearing this kind of statement, alot. The thing is, sometime ago I told myself to stop taking so many shots. I felt that I was inhibiting other ppl's development and at the same time depriving them of having fun.

I've tried keeping myself under control so much that nowadays I hardly ever take any shots at all, unless really needed.

But for the past 2 weeks I've been travelling around to other places to ball. I realized that when I'm playing outsiders theres no need to keep myself under control. I can keep attacking and attacking, it was alot of fun.

sch leaving testimonial

2010-06-09T14:41:00.005+08:00

I was searching everywhere for my college leaving testimonial and I finally found it hidden away under a stack of old CPF letters, income tax invoice and other stuffs from the government.

Well, I must say teachers always writes the nicest thing, even though I might have possibly been one of the worse type of student.

My form teacher wrote that I was a "quiet and pleasant" student. Obviously true. I was sleeping in most classes not making a single sound. Ok maybe not so true for the few times I snored and drooled.

She also wrote that I'm a polite and humble person. No argument with that, whenever she told me to get out of the class I did it obediently without complains.

I was also a "responsible team player". I'm guessing that's because I always skipped school but attended my Floorball and Basketball trainings, talk about responsibilities to the team..hehe.

The last part of the testimonial really baffles me. I shall type the whole thing out.

"CheeYong believed that the institute is a good training ground to hone his leadership skills. As a member of the 2004 class committee (assistant class rep), he carried out his duties diligently while liaising with his teachers, and often sought feedback as a way of feeling the ground. He always remained receptive to constructive criticism and was effective in communicating his expectations to the class. He was able to manage differing views and would attempt to accommodate them if it helped his group achieve their goals"

Pure fabrication. My form teacher should be writing novels instead of teaching.

and lastly

"Cheeyong is driven, and would do well in achieving goals that he can personally identify with."

Gotta agree with that.I guess she do know me ....at least a little. I remember that time I was so tired and determine to go home. I ran home during recess with TCH and we had macdonald's, it was oh so..yummy!

Been sometime since I last updated my blog.

I did not go for reservist because apparently there's an idiot with the exact same name as me. Some other idiot mixed up the 2 of us and called me up instead. I called up HQ to clarify as I felt that its weird none other from my batch had been called up.

The past 2 weeks had been busy. I was selling shoes at expo working for B.I.R.D again.

Job searching is going on concurrently but progressing really slowly as I was again down with flu and had fever as well, but now its again back on track.

Sometimes I think I'm a workaholic, I love to keep myself busy. I feel disgusted at myself for being lazy. My work efficiency is at 100% when there are more work than I can handle. Its only probably 50% when I have lotsa free time to complete it.

peace!

2010-05-09T23:06:00.002+08:00

Ok, schools officially over and I have not started looking for job yet. Its bad considering how poor I am, but I think I deserve a few days break for the 2 decades of mugging. Probably gonna start looking for job after my birthday, considering my not so impressive resume I foresee myself needing some time to get a decent job.

Bball stuffs. I guess it sucks to be tall and skinny and old. These days whenever I drive to the basketball I get hammered alot. Its super frustrating that there's no "foul out", because some people just whack others on every attempt. Biatch.

2010-04-16T02:07:00.002+08:00

* warning its the late night weird reflection again*

Once in a while its good to sit down and re-evaluate life.

I would say that this year, I've made great progress towards selflessness. Volunteering for stuffs and often at times getting myself stuck with too much to do. Its not that I'm into any religion or want anything in return from others. I just simply enjoy the feeling of helping others.

Of course I've got more to do, to reduce the calculativeness in me that I hate so much. I've to constantly remind myself to stop weighing so much stuff, because, Sometimes Its just good to think less. Why bother about little bits of things like "this is unfair I'm doing more stuffs then the others!", to me its just childishness.

I do whine when I encounter irresponsible project mates that are ever so present in NUS, but none I could say I truely hate. Its just some pointless lamenting, that meant no harm.

In trying to help, I also realize that I shouldn't impose my moral values on others. Its a very difficult thing to gauge. Where's the line that is drawn between being helpful and plain kaypoh/annoying? I do not know.

Some people might be simply contented at the way they are.

**

*Completely random late night blabbering 2*

Took part in NUS beach fiesta, I'm absolutely disgusted by some of the participants which cheated, and particularly this team which got good result.

Its depressing that in this world, you cheat and you get to win. What happened to the good old "spirit of competition". Sighz.... moral is again proven worthless, fact is cheat =win. Play by the rule = lose.

Such a twisted and depressing world.

I hate this job searching process. Sending and waiting. waiting and sending. Sibei sian, slow and inefficient.

2010-03-16T23:24:00.002+08:00

Ok I've learned to determine whether if a person is in a rush. You can sort of estimate if somebody's late for class by looking at the speed he is swinging his arm.

If he is swinging it fast that means he is pretty late.

If he is swinging it fast and he is not clenching his fist but instead his palms are open with the fingers sticking together. Its is the legendary 手刀 which symbolizes "DO NOT DISTURB"

This type of people are probably at least 10 mins late. If you are 15 mins late for tutorial in NUS you are considered absent and there goes 1% of your mark.

3rd day

2010-03-13T17:44:00.002+08:00

Yesterday marks the last day of my first fund raising endeavor in school. Overall I think it was quite fun. On the last day everyone was feeling drained out, because somehow its always the same people manning extremely long hours.

And the excessive talking did worse to my already sored sore throat.

Frankly speaking for $2 each lollipop, I didn't expect that we would be able to raise so much money. My experience in real world sales tells me that Singaporeans are extremely stingy.

But NUS students on the whole turned out to be pretty generous, although some did part with their money with some reluctance. But overall the response was good!

dead tired

2010-03-11T00:33:00.002+08:00

Booth manning started form 10:30am- 5pm.

After that I had a project meeting from 6pm -9pm

1 hour Bus ride back home

10pm reach home

Online meeting with another project group 10pm-11.30pm

Did my assignment 11:30pm-12pm

I am so damm freaking tired..............

And the stupid male toilet is so far from the deck!!!!!!!!!! I felt so stupid that I had to walk from burger king all the way to AS1 toilet .... WTF..........

I was trying my best not to laugh when 2 students, one after the another got scolded by the unforgiving western auntie + uncle at engine canteen.

I've been scolded a few times in the past hehe but now I'm an old bird in NUS.

Running on dave's laptop

2010-03-06T11:44:00.002+08:00

Ok the lappy is still down =(

I'm working on dave's laptop that he is so kind to lend me =)...... My work schedule can continue in the weekend yipeeee...

Unsubbing WOW was indeed a good decision because despite it getting more fun it took out a hell lotta my time.

LSM1303 is sad ;( .......................... No birds showed up except for 1 day .

Laptop down

2010-03-05T14:24:00.000+08:00

Lolz I got a legitimate excuse for not blogging. Idiot lappy got sent for servicing, it would be two weeks before I can get it back.

Major disruption to my work schedule =(

はじめて

2010-02-28T21:07:00.003+08:00

Yesterday was the first time I went clubbing. I'm glad that I didn't end up getting drunk. After Jackson's chalet I'm extremely determine not to ever get drunk. I have gastric problem and drinking makes it worse. That time it took me 1 week to be able to eat normally again.

I guess I was right that clubbing is really not fun for me. The best dance moves I can come up with are probably similar to a badly coordinated version of John Travolta's in the movie Grease.

But for the fun of it I tried lolz. Music was great though.

So while I wasnt dancing I was observing people like the social scientist I am.

There are these lonely chicks sitting around checking out guys, and weird angmohs in tight fitting shirts probably checking out guys too.

Then there are those crazy dancers doing their version of 佛山无影脚 on the dance floor. And also couples making out everywhere.

In conclusion, its definitely not something that I would do again anytime soon.

Long time no see

2010-02-25T01:03:00.005+08:00

Its been so long since I last posted that I had a hard time trying to remember my password.

But rest assured this blog is never going to die, because its a diary for me to note down the amusing things in life I observed.

Sometimes when I'm feeling depressed or bored I would browse through the archive and the funny things that happened actually sort of cheer me up alittle. They remind me of the how much fun it had been and how much more fun are coming along this journey call life.

Here's something from the army daze again.

There was once in army, our GOH squadron were tasked with raiding this squadron in our air base for contraband item.

So as usual we found things like thumbdrive, erotic photos, USB cables etc then suddenly while checking through the CD rack someone found self produced CD of the sutra 大北咒。 (The great compassion sutra)

We considered it a pirated CD therefore a hazard to our all important computer system. We had to confiscate it. Of course... the owner wasn't so pleased.... He was like

"wth ? 大北咒 also cannot?"

I find it extremely amusing. It was a self produced CD issued by some temple to the owner. But we confiscated on the basis that its not original.

but the problem is ...how the hell on earth would there be an original 大北咒 CD. I'm sure buddha himself wouldnt be so tech savvy to produce his own. And having great compassion, he of course wouldn't mind that his intellectual property is being stolen.

The rigidity of SAF laws and regulations are sometimes just so absurd that its to a point that I would consider them stupid. It took me a full 3 years of University education to undo the damage done to my brain by SAF.

feminism

2010-01-19T23:35:00.005+08:00

Its terrible news indeed! Feminism is on the rise in NUS!!!

NUS just replaced my favourite Gents toilet outside The Deck

With a Ladies toilet!
Its signifies a day of shame and utter defeat for the testosterone producing population.

Poor us, our next most convenient toilet options are at absolutely unacceptable distance. Eg. AS4 near LT8 and at the ending point of AS1 beside the stairs.

This sudden change is an omen. It signifies the start of a matriarchal society and no wonder there's all these talks about doomsday being around the corner. *thinks endless shopping, bitching, nail polishing, moodswings*

Brothers! We need to unite and stand up against this oppression!

who want to go KTV please register yourself.

白目。

2010-01-04T16:06:00.002+08:00

Its the dreaded virus scanning hour of the day. I cant do anything on my comp except blogging.

So recently Taiwanese variety shows have been discussing on how 白目 people are hated. Its interesting because the English translation for 白目 is - being direct and speaking whatever that comes to your mind.

Being frank and direct to your friends is considered a virtue in the western society. Because it is suppose to help your friends improve and see their short coming. But the Chinese culture views it differently, 白目ness is considered socially undesirable.

So in the western culture to tell your friend they need to lose weight you would say

"Hey, I think you put on some weight, you need to excercise"

And in chinese culture it would be

"Lets exercise together more often"

Well the point about this entry is that, I think I'm too much to the western side already and its bad, because it is certainly not my intention to hurt my friends. I want everyone to be good. But some people are simply too oblivious to their shortcomings. Without the use of heavy words its hard to knock sense into people with thick skulls.

But then again would I be actually super imposing my own believes onto others. That wouldn't be right, because my way to do things is not always the right nor only option.

P.S can't wait for the new sem to start already, I miss school and friends.

2009

2010-01-04T02:25:00.006+08:00

I typed and erased this entry multiple times. I face a writer's block even for my own blog. FML.

Considering this is the first entry for 2010 I felt compelled to at least write abit more.

So...Next semester is officially my last semester in NUS. I get this constant jittery feeling, its the same for the other crossroads so far (PSLE, A/O level/enlistment/ORD).

I consider myself as an extremely adaptable person. I guess that's the benefit of being a blur blob. People thinks that I'm harmless and befriends me easily. But still, I hate uncertainties, I try to maintain everything as status quo. But life....it always forces you to go forward.

I have a target cap for next semester but it would require me to score an average of A/A-. Which is absolutely impossible , unless some miracle happen and I land in all A+ project groups.

The December holiday was great, I jogged at least twice a week and have basketball sessions on every wed and fri. I kept up my push up regime. I'm so proud of myself for having this determination to carry though the "keeping fit resolution" I made before the start of the holiday...

so once again I declare "I refuse to become weak and fat!"

Night time sharpens heigntens each sensation.

The divide.

2009-12-25T00:06:00.003+08:00

Was eating steamboats just now. When an old lady and her son came to our table to collect the empty drinks can.

I'm always extremely irritated by these empty cans picker. In the neighborhood that I live in there are tons of these people. Most are healthy looking males that are just plain rude.

So I wasn't looking and was freaking irritated of course. But when I turned my head around I saw the old lady's son's face... He was mentally handicapped.

and the old lady was a frail looking grey haired women.

I actually felt like crying.

X'mas eve and they are out picking cans when I'm happily eating steamboat and wasting food.

This world sux.

New template!

2009-12-23T02:39:00.002+08:00

Decided to change the template of my blog to a default 1 provided by blogger. The old blog skin was malfunctioning here and there and consist of some broken html tags.

So yep! A change for the better!

surprise surprise

2009-12-22T15:11:00.004+08:00

What a surprise. No As but no Cs as well must be all the good karma I've accumulated. I even managed to pull up my cap slightly. Miracle does exist!

Too bad my nm3220 and nm3216 both bombed. Had hopes for Nm3220 to be better but I guess the report did sucked too much. Nm3216 was pretty much expected I was feeling like a lost lamb throughout the whole module.

avatar

2009-12-22T00:26:00.004+08:00

Avatar is absolutely awesome!

200 years into the future, a space expedition funded by some mega corporation looking for minerals landed human on the moon/planet Pandora.

Pandora is inhabited by cat-like humanoids with blue skin called the Navi's and the Navi's built their home on the minerals that humans are looking for. This sets up the conflict between the two groups.

In looking for a peaceful way of relocating the local inhabitants, scientists developed the technology - Avatar. Avatar infuses a human's consciousness into a Navi like body developed from the combined DNA of a human and a Navi. These bodies looks like the Navi's but are controlled by the human which have to sleep in a pod to do so.

As always, when two civilizations meet, the weaker one is exploited and has its resources plundered. When the Navi's refused to budge from their homeland, they were forcefully removed by the humans.....
.
.
.

OK, no surprises from the plot of avatar, in fact it wasn't really that creative at all. Its basically something that had happened over and over again in the annals of human history, even till recently(ahem... think Iraq). At its core its about exploitation of the weak.

What really impressed me was how the story was told.

The computer graphics, the attention to details and the superb use of the 3D viewing technology created a rich and vivid world that draws the audience in. It was the first time since Jurassic park that I had this feeling of experiencing a whole new world. It was like a journey through a mystical jungle. It was so believable..

The leaves, plants, animals, and landscape they were so detailed and imaginative. Previously, I wasn't really a big fan of 3d viewing, but Avatar owned this one. It is such a pity that this awesome technology was previously wasted on craps like Ice age 3.

I'm glad avatar didn't lose itself in its obsession to details with computer graphics. The story was brilliantly told through the scope of an ex marine looking for salvation and as the story progress, redemption.

Movies script don't really need surprises, car chases nor hungry aliens. What they need is the human touch where people can emotionally relate to. There were a few emotional scenes in the movie where I really felt the pain of the characters. Perhaps it was the realism that these things are actually happening. We see them everyday on the news but we don't feel for the people suffering. However, when told through Avatar we the audience sort of build a relationship with the characters therefore we can actually relate to them better.

Of course behind every great movie there's always the "moral of the story". The Navi's had this ability to consciously link up with almost any living thing on Pandora through these mini tentacles at the end of their pony tail. These linkage tentacles are also found on most of the animals on the planet. When linked they would be able to control the animals and hear the thoughts of the tree which carries their ancestor's spirit.

My thought is this. The Navi's and Humans went down 2 entirely different evolutionary path. Human chose to succumb to greed and exploit their environment thus ended up destroying their own "mother" whereas the Navi's chose to live in harmony with their environment thus their" mother" was preserved and living harmoniously with their environment they are therefore able to harness the power of the nature.

Well .. I guess with all the pollution going, conservation is a common theme these days. But of course with Avatar its told through a creative way rather than the usual, pollution= apocalypse thingy, re-used in almost every doomsday , mutant monster sci-fiction movie.

Last of all, I particular liked how the movie took a shot at the USA government. In justifying their use of force, the colonel of the expedition party said "We will FIGHT TERROR with TERROR". The irony is that they are the invaders and humans are the one called "aliens" by the Navi's.

good day.

2009-12-21T03:12:00.003+08:00

Wanted to get a job this holiday but I procrastinated too much and also the agents always like to call while I'm sleeping.....its really not my fault that I have to sleep till 12pm everyday okay...

How sad! No job means I've gotta tighten my spending for next sem, which is going to be my last semester in NUS.

Haiz ..I will miss the luxury of being a student especially in NUS. For its facilities and student welfare are the best I've ever experienced. (Partly because I came from mostly lousy schools)

But anyway I've gotta start looking for a full time job man....and the job market seems bleak..... 头痛...

wow.

2009-12-20T02:37:00.002+08:00

Been playing WOW these days. Was feeling kind of bored until I killed some random people of the opposing faction. The feeling was indescribable, a much needed relieve from the grindny and monotonous PVE content.

Haiz. Life's a bore.

the truth behind marathons

2009-12-07T18:45:00.003+08:00

I'm intrigued by the marathon phenomenon that's going around. It seems to have gained momentum just like the "you-aint-cool-without-any-gadget-starting-with-"I" craze.

I bet most of the people that joined these marathon ain't even regular joggers. Such events might actually have the adverse effect of propagating the wrong info that exercising once per year is enough.

On the part of the fake runners, I bet by participating it somehow fulfills their sense of guilt of not exercising regularly. Because in their mind they would probably be thinking

1]"I ran a few times to train for the marathon"
2]"I ran 10km today! its my one year worth of exercise!"
3]"Ok now my friend know that I'm not a couch potato"
4]"hurray ! the chicks are gonna be damn impressed. I've joined every marathon this year(even though I walked through most and didn't bother to train for them)"

But of course some people just wanna have fun. If we look at it as merely a form of entertainment for friends/families to come together/socialize such marathons does have its value.

bored

2009-12-01T16:03:00.005+08:00

Only 3 days into the holidays and I cant stand it already! I'm superrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr bored!

I was conditioned to work like a horse throughout this sem. This feeling of not doing anything productive is driving me crazy.

No people want to jio me out somemore! I've got no friends man! damm sad!

and I hate getting half assed response from people, makes me feel very insulted, tmd! Stupid ed and rat havent finish their exam, stupid eugene and yigao is working, stupid agent dunno doing what, stupid mum working , stupid buibui napping!, stupid peggy rather watch tv than watch movie with me! and stupid weijie working at sitex! why so many stupid people!

arghhhh I'm on the verge of going crazy.... I finished heroes season 4 in just 1 day...

Yay! gotta admit the plot is getting worse with each season... ratings reflected it very well. from average 18 -> 6....but still pretty nice. The abilities are also being reused alot. Interesting characters are getting killed off but the boring old ones are kept for the sake of plot development. Vicious cycle I say.

I dunno what else to do man, tried watching 宫心计on tudou. But it lags like shit.
Dunno what the hell this show is about. So many ladies with big hair. 仙女下凡 or something.

Tried reading One piece staring from chapter 1 but its boring the hell out of me.

Tried playing leagues of legend but I've lost my last 5 games.
Speaking of leagues of legend. I hate it when my team gives up easily. Cant this people have some fighting spirit in them? How to succeed in life like tat? Everything also give up, how to improve?

I'm absolutely pissed by these people because this stupid game uses the system of polling for surrendering. So when majority of my team votes to surrender their decision overwrites mine and our team loses the game.

Dota was alot better because when my teammates leave the game(gives up/surrender/disconnect) they doesnt affect me, I'll just continue on my own even if I'm the last person on my team. And I'm proud to say I've made some excellent comeback with 2v5, 3v5 or even 1v5. Although most of the time I end in utter defeat but on the occasion that I've won it was sweet and absolutely memorable.

When I'm losing I always think of ways to win, to turn the tide, but when these losers are losing they think of surrendering.

I call that the loser mentality. In their mind they've already lost.

Okay enough of the preachy shit, must be boring the hell out of most people that even bother to read through my senseless and extremely jumpy rambling.

In conclusion, I'm bored and at the same time extremely pissed. Can't people just all be nice...tsk tsk.

smelly

2009-11-23T03:56:00.011+08:00

I find that singaporeans have this weird obsession to add the prefix "Cao" (smelly) to anything they dislike.

1] A hardworking student that spoils the bellcurve for his peers. We term him as the Cao mugger.
2] An male individual that has different sexual preference is called a "Cao ah gua"
3] Girls lacking in proper social etiquette are referred to as "cao ah lian"
4] Her male counter part and potential boyfriend is "cao ah beng"
5] Enlistees into the army are "cao recruits"
6] Even in gaming we have "cao feeder"
Of course a probable explanation could be that all these terms were derived from a certain 3 syllabus hokkien vulgarity that coincidentally starts with the word "Cao" as well.

uni life

2009-11-12T12:30:00.002+08:00

I think I'm gonna be one emo pie when I graduate. As the sem goes by I find myself loving the undergrad life more and more. The people I meet in school brings excitement to my life. "The smarty pants, the fashionista, the otakus, the chao ah guas and the lazy asses"

Oh man....how fun.

I'm proud of myself for making it through the toughest sem ever. The last min 6000 words JS project, the time consuming game design, the ultimate chim research module and the 7-10pm forensic science mod.

How naive I was to think that I can actually slot a Japanese language 2 module into this sem. It was lucky I chose the much easier IT1003.

Speaking of Japanese studies. Its been killing my grades. So far I've already collected 2 C+s and 1 C from my JS minor. Haiz.... Why did I even choose to do JS minor? I just can't seem to get it.

And next sem I have to take 2 more JS mods to complete my minor. What the hell...

I'm just gonna pray that I don't collect another C this sem from Marketing in Japan.

army daze

2009-11-11T14:07:00.002+08:00

Again........ something from my army daze.

I was in foxtrot/falcon company. The toilets were notorious for choking, during my batch it was no exception.

There was once our platoon sergeant got so angry. He accused us of shittng in the toilets eventhough its already choked causing shit to dry up and stuck onto the ceramics. Flushing didnt help because it only pushed all the choked shit out to flood the toilet.

It was so bad that I was able to smell shit from my bunk which was located at the other end of the level.

The platoon sergeant said that if we cannot unchoke the toilet our whole platoon would be confined for the weekend.

We were desperate, so we tried all sorts of methods.

Some used their mesh tin (used to cook food in outfield) to scoop the shit and the shitty water. Some used plastic bags as gloves to dig out the shits from the toilet bowls.

But the most extreme person was this guy that used the water tube from the taps to suck the shit out from the pipes. He said he was able to stop sucking once the shit went into the tube and before the shit went into his mouth.

It was extremely gross -_-....

among the shitty water I saw some dao gays floating around. Apparently dao gays are not easy to be digested.

yipee.

2009-11-10T18:05:00.003+08:00

Yipee! No more projects~~~~~~ School term's ending and my favourite X'mas is coming. Finally had time to cut my hair today. People have been giving me all sorts of weird comments about my long and unkept hair.

"lion's mane, centre parting guy, gay, jesus christ etc."

I'm loving my new short schoolboy haircut.

Haircut wasted 2.5 hours because of this ah peh thats perming is hair all curly. He thinks its stylo but its really ugly. What a waste of money.

I saw this group of army guys in army uniform. They reminded me of my buddy when I was on course in changi.

I had this funny ah beng buddy.

Once, we were having this outfield excercise. I was the section leader so somehow people in our section decided use my name as the password. So to identify our section mate, a person have to shout Chee, the other person being verified must give the correct answer which is Yong.

when it was relatively dark, my section mates saw my ah beng buddy coming out from the bushes, so we pointed our rifle at him and shouted

Section mates :"CHEE"

The ah beng buddy was puzzled so he raised his arms dropped his rifle. He didnt reply with the password.

So we shouted again.

Section mates:"CHEE"

and then after a long pause............ he replied.

Ah beng buddy: "BYE"

We couldn't stop laughing after we heard his reply. Apparently he forgot the password or he wasnt paying attention. That was the first time I felt it was funny when people made fun of my name haha.

Oh man, I'm missing those carefree army days...

Somehow I survived this week. I've been working from day to night for the past few days JS and NM3220. I think I'm pretty much screwed for this 2 modules. Even my As from the individual assignments couldnt save me.

Its a sad for 3220. I always like research mods due to its investigative nature (mugging sux). What a pity that I didnt had enough time to be more influential in the group. Haiz! I'm blaming it on game design... that stupid mod took up so much of my time.....

I like the JS marketing module too. But it somehow felt very detached. I havent been attending lectures and doing my readings. Tutorial sessions was held on alternate weeks and unlike previous JS mods there wasnt any discussion topic..-_-

GGed.

On a side note, forensic science midterm was A- ............. I was like "omfg this cant be real" I thought I did badly for the paper, because I left a few blanks here and there. And the answers I wrote were really crappy.

Like wth.. Guess... I've reached a whole new level in terms of my ability to throw smoke bombs. Or perhaps others did just as badly. The sad thing is now I will have to mug for my final paper to maintain my A =(. I was intending to S/U this module man..

Now if the result for my IT1003 report is good as well, I think I'm in deepshit....have to mug for 4 mods -_- most of which I havent been attending lectures, doing the readings :(

School's such a killer...These back to back date lines are no joke!

Amidst my busy schedule I managed to book a dental appointment because the god damm fillings cracked AGAIN. tmd!

Its the second time it cracked, Miss dentist told me that it is either becoz of the composition of mineral in my teeth did not match the fillings material or that I bite onto hard food too much.

I'm immediately reminded of this god damm super HARD honeydew i bought at YIH the other day. I was complaining to ed and adele about how it felt like I was eating apple.

Miss dentist even recommended me the silverish amalgam for my fillings. WTH no way man! I would rather commit suicide than to look like some tiko ah pek with ugly teeth.

Miss dentist was such a sweet girl, she even said "darling open your mouth" !!!!! I swear dentists are the nicest people around.

Miss dentist insisted to administer anesthetic for me but I said no I dont need that. Firstly I don't want a half collapsed face again drooling saliva all the time, secondly its going to cost alot more.

And I was right! The procedure didn't hurt abit. Miss dentist was bewildered and even exclaimed "You got a high threshold for pain!".

I was like "yea it hurts, but I can deal with it" eventhough I felt no pain at all, Lolz. Machoness 100%!

I shall walk around dentistry more often to snag a dentist babe.

I bought some sweets call "hello kitty drops" for $5.20 from one of the vendors along the as6 walkway. When I opened up the box there were no hello kitty themed sweets. I was devastated. FML.

2009-10-09T00:39:00.002+08:00

I dunno if this is an artificial high or how long it can last. As the body starts to recuperate , I'm constantly soak in this high spirit that felt especially liberating from the daily woes.

The headache and nauseousness is starting to fade.

Life is such a peach =)

blast..

2009-10-07T22:12:00.002+08:00

Jackson's chalet was a blast! I haven't been so drunk since the bird's birthday. I got so drunk that I had very little memory of what happened, and vomited all the way till dawn. I swear I saw remnants of last year's reunion dinner in the vomit, .. that oh so delicious abalone I ate ..yum yum.

After the bird's birthday I always controlled how much I drank, because I knew that I have terrible gastric problem and it would definitely get worse by over drinking.

For jackson's chalet I paid the price, 2 days later I'm still feeling nauseous and I have zero appetite even for wholesome goodness like KFC.

Lots happened but I shall keep them a secret for some things are not meant to be said. I'm completely grateful for the friends that looked after a crazy me that did crazy stuffs and later a smelly me that vomited and stunk up the aircon room. Million thanks!

This past 2 years I was a constant emo pie, I guess it took another heavy drinking session to knock back some sense into me.

From now on, seize the day~

food

2009-10-06T19:02:00.001+08:00

Sometimes I hate myself. Why do I always go to the same food stall to order the same food.

I've been eating the same ingredients all the time that I dun even know how others taste like. I just presume they are not as tasty.

The curry peng and chicken rice stall vendors totally know me and they deprives me of the right to make an order. How sad!

2009-10-03T03:22:00.002+08:00

Went to school today depressed but it seems like lady luck hasn't forsaken me at all. Just when I'm suffering from doomsday syndome, I got my second A in 3220. Now I only need 3 more As to secure an A grade for that module=)

and during the lecture exercise , I got to be a focus group moderator which was alot of fun! Because its always my kaypoh nature to probe into things.

The failure at midterm for IT1003 turned out to be a good thing after all, because now I would be able to re-focus my strategy on my core mods.

And then there's the inspiring/entertaining lecture by Dr. Henry C. Lee. Forgive me for my ignorance, cause before the lecture I had no idea who he was! But when I saw his chinese names I was like wow! This guy's name is all over the newspaper!! It was the absolute best lecture I had in NUS!!

Next week is a week to look forward to.

Firstly, its the E-learning week, that means no lecture weehee!

Secondly, theres the Jackson BBQ chalet.

Thirdly, theres a possible KTV session.

All's good !

Depress

2009-10-02T00:25:00.002+08:00

Ever now and then depression hits me. I guess that's part and parcel of life. This sem's got to be the toughest sem ever, with 3220 and 3216 crushing down on me.

IT1003's midterm was absolutely disastrous, I doubt I can even pass it. Forensic science report is just a mess, irregardless...I'm submitting it tomorrow as it is the least of my worries (S/U).

JS project is just...nothing has been done.

Broke a finger during the last CSC game and its still broken.

Mum's being an ass.

The dog's been sporting an afro. No one has the time to comb him daily.

Sometimes I just wish I can fall in love and everyday would be rosy, but no..I had enough of all those nonsense and I dun think I would feel different anytime soon.

Its tough life being a struggling student..sigh.

-signed off, depressed-

pain

2009-09-25T00:21:00.002+08:00

(Its really hard to type with my index finger swollen) Today marks the end of this seasons basketball.

Summary.

I think we did pretty well this year. Sure there were those usual silly passes and such, but at least when we didn't mess up our passes, we made some pretty decent attacks.

The new people far exceeded my expectation of them and we also maintained KSCC's reputation of being a rough team(If we can't shake of the bad reputation, might as well embrace it right? haha).

And also this year's CSC made me realize something. No matter how many times I said basketball is just a form of socializing now, I know I am still damm competitive. I always want to win.

For our last match, the coach from the other team was like looking down on us with his lacklustre defend and his stupid face which seems to be saying "You cant score even if I don't guard you". When I realized this there was this fire that started burning in me.

I not only want to defeat him but I want to destroy him completely! His team might be better than us, but that doesnt mean he have be an arrogant ass.

After which, whenever I got the ball I just went in for the rim and managed to create some chances for others and also scored a few points. I wanted to get every ball and kick the shit out of that coach's ass...

crazy

2009-09-19T23:06:00.001+08:00

Nobody goes around hitting people like that.

Especially not when I said don't do it again.

I am completely pissed.

Ok i'm super busy. I've got work stacked to the roof. hiatus hiatus ppl!

2009-09-11T12:02:00.001+08:00

I dun know if its a good thing. Because KSCC won our 2nd game... It feels good to win but at the same time basketball will continue to eat into my timetable...

arghh... talk about scarcity of resources . MY PPC curve is screwed.

2009-08-29T01:39:00.002+08:00

I hate this period of the year. Its so freaking stressful.

I have Basketball competition and my brain is still in transition from the slack summer break to another packed school term.

On a side note I realized that most of my friends in school are females! I need to find some guy friends for some ass kicking activities !grhhhhhhhh!

conclusion

2009-08-22T03:01:00.002+08:00

I've come to the conclusion that those people that are trying to piss me off are indeed intentionally doing so.

I've made up my mind to keep all these people out and be less of an ass to my inner circle of friends. Good luck to the new resolution!

Ass

Sometimes I wonder is it that people are trying to piss me off or I'm being too much of an ass myself.

Recently someone commented that I sucked in consoling people in the matter of love. Its true, I have no intention of denying. I feel kinda awkward seeing the vulnerable side of people.

The thing is.. I've been living so independently from my family for so long that I've loss this tenderness in me. Nobody ever consoled me for anything. I dun even reveal much vulnerabilities or insecurities, I take care of everything by myself.

Also, It especially disgust me when outsiders try to get themself involved by giving these act smart comments and analysis to the parties involved. I would not want to bring myself down to their level.

The truth is , if you don't know anything. Its probably best to keep your mouth shut.

Ok...so , I will probably continue to suck in consoling people. But I would rather remain sucky then to be those "rally-behind-your-close-friend-and-attack-the-other-person" friend.
Why so much hatred for?

ok...

Random again.

Watched District 9 recently , I'm gonna be completely bias and crown District 9 as the most awesome movie of the past decade.

District 9 Has -> aliens + conspiracy theory + random moral issues +car chase + gun fights

My testosterone shot up to 20 times the normal level after watching it, also adrenaline level was so high that they were flowing out from my ears.

Totally awesome!
