Great Talk with Dad... 30/09/08

Managed to have a quick chat with Dad. Needed his help on some questions pertaining to the project that I am working on.

I wonder how it got diverted to talking about cars. Perhaps it was the F1 race? Anyway, my favorite car has always been Audi. And Dad so happened to see one as his sent his car for some minor repair this morning. He commented that Audi cars have this certain enigma and class. Haha... And he chanced upon the newer versions smaller salon version what was on their way to the Audi showroom.

We had a friendly debate over the price of the car and after some verification, a 1.8L costs well over 140K. Yes! That's as good as driving a house around... Given a down payment of 10% and a loan for 10 years, every month is a whooping 1K installments. Haha... *speechless*

No matter what, Audi will still be my dream car.

In conclusion, best way to strike a conversation with a guy; cars.

COngrats to the Fraternity of callers... 30/09/08

It has been one of those rare Mondays where the tint of blue has been kind of eroded. What a great way to start a day, especially on a Monday. Can't spill the beans but to the fraternity of callers, well done! And Cheers!!! Like I mentioned, we should do this with real wine!

Btw, I was glad that I made it to school in time despite leaving my house only at quarter past 8. =P

Econs mid term took place around 6pm. Thought I had a chance, only to find out from Ernest that I made a silly careless mistake. This reminds me of financial accounting I took the previous semester where over-confidence took the better of me. I think I'm not going to fare well in the test. Utterly disappointed with myself!

Dinner with Ernest was real impromptu and of cause, this applied to our "couple" dress code too. Er... I seriously need a wardrobe change soon! This has happened way too many times!

Was reading the papers and found that Singapore has garnered really encouraging comments and accolades from F1 fanatics and drivers themselves. Indeed, this has been a proud moment for all SIngaporeans. I must say my ignorance has changed for the better in terms of F1 racing. Really looking forward to the hosting of many similar races in out little country since we have won the bid for staging F1 races for the next 5 years. Cool! I hope I can afford the tickets for the next race!


Have always seen this poster somewhere in the shops but have no idea who the person is. Well, at least I can say loudly he is none other than Kimi Räikkönen of Farrari F1 racing team! (photo courtesy of ww2.tagheuer.com)



Haha... Spot the similarity in the two photos?
(photo courtesy of http://images.google.com.sg/imgres?imgurl=http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/23/Kimi_Raikkonen_2002_Taiwan.jpg&imgrefurl=http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Kimi_Raikkonen_2002_Taiwan.jpg&h=640&w=480&sz=146&hl=en&start=1&um=1&usg=__mCGSuXFsFV6lfsreY1LUqxT3j1M=&tbnid=atXHvfET9s6rtM:&tbnh=137&tbnw=103&prev=/images%3Fq%3DKimi%2BRaikkonen%2Bin%2Btaiwan%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26rlz%3D1G1GGLQ_ENSG268%26sa%3DG)

Gonna say this for the last time... that I'm really glad to be part of the World's first night race!

Anyway, brief chat with Ernest was pretty cool. Shared a couple pointers on certain stuff. I did tell him that once I start, it's kind of hard for me to stop and I guess he understands what that means by now. I've concluded that I should be more reticent. Yes, I should be so.

Well, been a long day. I'm so sleep-deprived from the studying of mid-term (which I so carelessly made a dumb mistake and many more yet to be discovered) and from rushing my assignment.

There's definitely no better way to de-stress that some overdue shopping... Here's what I wanna get for myself:
1) Clothes! ( No orange color ones)
2) Pair of shades
3) Jos' Children's Day present
4) Necklace (buy for me LAH... can't believe I've succumb to writing in Singlish)
5) Chain (buy for me too LAH...)
6) Ferrari Formula 1 miniature car
7) and Sleeping pills!

Alright! Time to hit the bed... For the last time, congrats to the Fraternity of callers...

*hungry*

Vroom........ 28/09/08

Just as F1 SIngapore Grand Prix finishes in classic fashion, my mid-term break comes to an end as well.

Having Econs mid-term tomorrow and I hope everything goes well. And I just started to work on my assignment due on Tuesday! That's a killer!

And I'm going to be late tomorrow! DEAD!

Oh! I think I might wanna get myself one of those cute F1 cars! Haha...

Dinner with Steerprop! ... 27/09/08

Had a wonderful dinner with the folks from Steerprop!!! Yup, with Uncle Birdy and Harri! Haha...

I salute to Harri for having the courage to eat frog's leg?! I don't even have the courage to! Haha... Anyway, think I had a taste of beef coz there was this dish which I thought tasted funny. There and again, not like I can't really eat beef just that I am not a big fan of it.

Well, glad to hear that H328 seems to be in much better shape as compared to H327. Hopefully it will not take up as much time as the latter ya!? Haha... *Fingers crossed*

Oh! A million thanx to Harri for bringing me the much dreaded SALMIAKKI sweets! All the way from Finland! Thank you very much! =) For those folks out there who have no idea what it is, Salmiakki is a type of sweet which is unique of Finland. I won't comment too much of its taste but I suggest trying it yourself to know its uniqueness. =P

To Harri,

I think the Salmiakki tastes much better than the one I had back in Keppel. Especially the one in the small box which you gave. I think the box had a writing like "XYLITOL" on it. Does it mean "menthol" flavored? They are much more nicer and more friendlier to my taste buds. Haha... Haven't tried the rest of the sweets but I will let you know once I have.

Oh! Thanx for the dinner treat too! Seems like yesterday when we had the dinner before you left for Finland and now we are having one again! Kind of embarrassed to have you folks paying for the meals. Perhaps next time I can foot the bill?

And thanx for the CD with pictures of FInland! I shall post some of them on my blog when I have the time too! Haha... I thought of a place I could bring you too when you are free! It's the Kent Ridge Park! Shall fill you up more if we ever have the chance!

Cheers!!!

F1 Singapore Grand Prix... 26/09/08

( I love this photo taken with Toru! No reason why but I just loved it!)

Alright! I had a wonderful kiss-ass day at F1 SIngapore Grand Pix! I'm glad I went if not I would have missed tonnes of action. Glad to be able to meet Michael (Sec), ), Kaming (Sec) and James (BMT). It was a colossal coincidence! Oh! I almost forgot! There's Clement (French) too! He's damn funny! What a character!!



Toru commented my face was red as a beetroot after a drink. Haha... OOps!

Perhaps it was the drink which gave me the extra courage to chat with my neighbor whom I met when I was on my way back home. Apparently the mum and her daughter were stuck in the lift so I offered to wait with the dad before the duo were let free. Haha... Interesting chat!

I promise to post more F1 pictures when I have gathered from my folks.

Million thanks to Claire for the ticket!

Cheers!

My head is spinning now! It will be worst tomorrow when I get on to my work due!

*sob sob* ... 26/09/08

My Mum asked if anyone has been to our house to cook when she was away. Haha... I told her it was me and she was surprised! Anyway, I promised I'll cook for her when I have the time. I promised!

2 more chapters for my econs mid-term on this coming Monday. But I have project meeting tomorrow and F1 race to attend to. I have a dinner appointment too! ANd and... A assignment due on coming Tuesday! That's a killer by itself.

IN summary, I'm so done for and my eyes are hurting now! Sucks!

No reason to go F1... 25/09/08

I missed it!

Got a call and asked if I wanna go JB. Sharks! Of cause I would love to if I can afford the time! And I thought I had a chance with the F1 race. *gone*

Welcome back, Dad & Mum!... 24/09/08

My folks are finally back from China! I've officially relinquished my throne as the homemaker of my house back to er... my mum and dad. Haha...

Had tuition at Jos' place. He was disruptive as usual but I won't be teaching him for long so, I'll endure. In fact, it's not that bad though I seem to be grumbling about my weekly ordeal more often than none.

I reached T1 about 9:20PM and finally got on to my dinner:


The food is actually quite nice but it's kind of ex!

This is going to sound lame but I enjoyed my trip back home, in the backseat of the car with Dad behind the wheels and my Mum at the passenger's. It reminded me of the many trips I had when I was young where I would do just that.

Judging from my folks discussion on the trip, I could tell they had a wonderful time. =P I guess meeting up with their godson's GF and also our relatives in Xiamen really made this trip even more enjoyable!


Yup! The gal in the photo is their godson's GF. Looks like a tai tai ya?! Haha... She is! Their marriage might be in Dec! Whao! They are actually one year younger than I. Haha...

Great to hear that my relatives in Xiamen are doing well. Seems like the cousin that I stayed with when I was in Xiamen the other time had gotten a new flat! In fact, he has gotten a new condo! Those that comes with a private swimming pool! Haha... They are doing so much better than us and, he's a taxi driver! From what I gathered then, he has been really thrifty and hardworking and I guess he is still so right now. =P I forgot to mention too, he is renting out the old flat which I stayed in. Talking about real-life Cashflow 101? I guess he is definitely a good epitome. He wished for me and my elder bro to visit them the next time my parents are back for visiting. And, I wish for that too! Heard that Xiamen is becoming more and more developed!

I was watching the Taiwan and China clips which my parents made. We had such a good laugh and my Mum was so enthu to share with me all the clips and pictures taken. Man! How I wish I am part of them! Haha...

I'm really glad my folks are back in SIngapore!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Had a little brush with my friend. Pretty perturbed as well but after a brief thought and DBs, I'm cool and acknowledge my short-coming. Lorraine made some interesting remarks which I thought are quite pretty true...

"... the closer we are, the more details we know about one another. Maybe that's where the irritation comes from. Guess that's where expectations of a close friend comes in too. Like 'so old liao still handle things like that'...

Honestly, I can't agree more. Perhaps we know one another so well (or least that's what we assume) that we tend to take them for granted. We may do or say some things that are rather insensitive and ignorant to our friends' feelings (which I am so guilty of) without knowing. I hope to change that bad habit of mine! I figured it out that the friction comes with familiarity. Haha...

The bottom line is, know where to draw the line. From all the crap that has happened to me, I only conclude the importance of family. No matter how much we yearn to be by ourselves, having a place to go back to at the end of the day (aka home) is important.

I'm really glad that Dad has given me my china chinese ancestry; to be able to say proudly that my relatives are from Xiamen. I've seen so many friends' around me where they either lose themselves in their self-denial of any connection with their china ancestries or demean the ROC as a whole. I seem to be advocating the opposite and I guess that was why many of my army friends thought I was from a China guy. Er... Still, I would like to visit States!

I'm in a sudden mood for crapping and so much so as been written, I wanna thank for you enduring my balderdash this far.

DOne for...

Current location: Kallang MacDonlad's...
Time: 06:04 PM

Seems like the Mac @ Kallang has gone through some major reno. There's no power plugs provided like before. That's bad, considering the limited batt life of my "wonderful" IBM. Oh! They are setting up the gantry for the carpark too! Guess there're won't be any free parking in the days to come.

Haha.... My Finnish friend from Keppel Internship is back in Singapore!
Hym! Got to put aside some time to meet up with him man but... I have tonnes of work on hand! Help!!

Seems like I do not have much time left for myself. I have project meeting tomorrow at 2pm so I think meeting my BA folks will not materialize. There and again, we will be meeting on Friday itself so there's really no hurry to it.

Hym... As for Friday, going to watch F1 race! Kind of excited but reckon I will feel damn guilty knowing the load of work to be done...

The call came! Haha... Not with my much...

Opps! We did it again... 24/09/08

The notorious duo who did it again!




Yes! We did it again! First it was this Korean restaurant @ ECP now it's buffet dinner at Royal Park Hotel. All in the name of 堕落.
Well, come to think of it, it's actually quite affordable coz I had 3 meals in one go; breakfast, lunch and dinner. SO on average, each meals costs about $20? (inclusive of Citi Bank credit card discount!)

Felt a little out-of-place coz I had my slippers on. There and again, it could have been worst! Haha...

Nice food, nice place and nice company... but not so nice on my puny wallet!

My folks are coming back tomorrow! FInally!

Hym... The calls are gone, long gone! I kind of regret for not making for the appt. Argh... Crap!

I was Shocked... 23/09/08

keith's Existing Situation

Insecure. Seeks roots, stability, emotional security, and an environment providing greater ease and fewer problems.

keith's Stress Sources

Strives for straight-forward relationships, founded on mutual trust and understanding. Wishes to act only in conformity with his own convictions. Demands freedom to make his own decisions without being subjected to interference, outside influence, or the necessity of making compromises.

keith's Restrained Characteristics

Unhappy at the resistance he feels whenever he tries to assert himself. However, he believes that there is little he can do and that he must make the best of the situation.
Willing to become emotionally involved and able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity, but tries to avoid conflict.


keith's Desired Objective

Desires a tranquil, peaceful state of harmony offering quiet contentment and a sense of belonging.

keith's Actual Problem

Does not wish to be involved in differences of opinion, contention or argument, preferring to be left in peace.

keith's Actual Problem #2

Needs to protect himself against his tendency to be too trusting, as he finds it is liable to be misunderstood or exploited by others. Is therefore seeking a relationship providing peaceful and understanding intimacy, and in which each knows exactly where the other stands.

What can I say?! It nailed my feelings, seriously...

??? ... 22/09/08

Hym... I have one less reason to go for F1 race...

Seems like there is some Johnny Walker event at Eplanade or something.

Well...

Was perplexed over some response I received earlier on. I just don't get it...

The best way out of it was to walk away from it and I'm glad I did just that...

I need to work on my EQ! Haha...

Sometimes it takes a fair bit of effort to drive the message across. I hope he has finally gotten it.

I'm so so so so so so so so so so so thirsty now!

Haha... I shall go get myself a cold soda from the vending machine!

noodles... 22/09/08

I got to relive those days in TBC. Come to think of it, I guess there's one thing which I can say proudly say I gathered from the whole experience - cooking spaghetti.

Overnight spaghetti is actually quite nice!

After all the trouble, I'm actually going to F1 race! It makes me really rude should I turn it down after all the trouble. There and again, I have my a back-up plan for that. Haha...

By the way, I got a sUmmON... *puke*

QC can cook, so can YOU! ... 21/09/08

Yup! I finally gotten down to having the long due cooking lesson which I have been saying. Really great to have the folks over to my place for a crash course on cooking spaghetti. What better tutelage than from Veron (spaghetti queen) and Lorraine ( "master chef" who only watches her slaves cook).

Too bad YJ had to leave early. Well, guess there's always another chance. And, thanx for the bubble tea and the bread! That was my brunch! =P

I was actually looking forward to the cooking lesson. Took my whole afternoon to look for the required cookeries coz I didn't wanna make my teachers feel that I wasn't sincere in my lesson. Haha...



Cooking is actually quite an enjoyable activity! Of cause, with the correct company that is to say.

ANyway, I promised my folks a meal after I get myself off the hook and I realized I have yet to fulfill that. So I reckon this would be a great chance to do just that. In fact, the total meal for 4 cost less than $40! ( with dessert included too!) It is definitely worth every single dime. In fact, I think our dessert was pretty cool! Gelare dark choc with Hershey's choc syrup. Simply heavenly!

Hym... Seems like my house does not has a nice dining table, those long ones? Hope my future house has one and a big kitchen too! Oh! With a big cooking stove too!

COme to think about it, being the host is actually quite an experience. Everything is great, less the washing up part. That sucks and leaves my hands with that smelly detergent odor. *Puke* Guess no host can every run away from that right? Haha...

Feel a little bad coz I kind of missed out loads of other people like Gerald etc. Shall make it up to them when my "cooking" is up to standard (which I believe will not come anytime soon!)

To my folks, hope you appreciate this simple meal. It's my way of saying "Thank you!" for all this while.

Cheers!

Mahjong x 3 rounds... 20/09/08

Alright! I guess I'm having too much fun! I just got home after a great MJ session with my folks. After playing a grueling MJ game of 3 rounds in a row, I only managed to win $3 nett. ( winning $20 from Uncle james and losing $16 to Shawn). Well, it's not so much about the money though. It's kind of my motivation to keep concentrated in the game itself rather than blabbering away.

Anyway, Veron's bro's MJ tiles are really gorgeous! And, not forgetting the expensive dices! They are the epitome of ostentatious! But it was a great session! I must say Veron has leveled up! She's getting really really skillfully! Hym... Ah Bao, promise me not to disclose the little "secret" we share ya!? *wink wink* Haha...

Mj session with Shawn was cool. Seemed alittle quiet though. But there and again, I reckon it was because we were the noisy ones, singing to almost every other songs which Yang Zhong Wei was singing. Haha... Not forgetting Ernest too! He's quite pro too! Glad to find that he's adapting well to our spontaneity! Oh! Thanx to Shaw for his coupon. Owe him one.

Well, realized I'm actually quite ignorant to certain things that are happening around me. I think the lens which I use to judge or view people is indeed a little out of focus. Seems to me that advocating "friends are not supposed to have judgement" might not always work all the time. It can get a little misleading at times. Perhaps it calls for a revaluation.

By the way, was scheduled to go for a dinner appointment with a fren. Well, I guess it was not meant-to-be. Somehow, I kind of wished for it to turn out this way too. Well, we can only leave it to fate for now.

Alright, time to sleep! GOing to learn how to cook spaghetti tomorrow! I believe it will come in handy in the days to come.

zzZZzz...

NIce show, Nice company... 20/09/08

Had a rather long day the day before.

Went for a quick gym session in the morning before heading for a swim too. Took about 2 hours for some much needed personal time.

Thereafter, went down to Jos' place for tuition but along the way, heard from the radio that it was Boy Thunder's birthday and he was giving out some car decal at a Mac in AMK. Well, in the spur of the moment, I decided to go all the way down for a little surprise. Haha... Too bad I didn't managed to catch him for I was 3 mins late. Still, I managed to catch his van at the traffic lights. Haha...

The tuition which followed after that was... TORTURING. A 2 and a half hour session of tuition is surely no joke. Anyway, I lost in a friendly match against him and have to get him these booster pack? I have no idea what it is but I will honor my words. Haha...

Managed to finish one lecture which I missed the day I attended a session at NUS career centre.

Dinner at Pasta Cafe was great. Though the price was a bit steep for me. ANyway, I've only been there twice and the first was my JC folks. Couldn't decide where to go when someone suggested Ah Chew Dessert.

Pretty lucky to find a parking lot and soon we we feasting on our desserts. Gerald, Shan Shan and Michelle arrived and our spontaneity took us to Marina Square to bowl. Due to the lack of lanes, we ended up watching Mamma Mia!

In summary, nice show, nice company.

I need to get my ass moving already! Too much work!

Pleasant Misunderstanding... 18/09/08

Had a pleasant misunderstanding with my folks and I ended up playing MJ... on a weekday... and knowing that the next day I have lessons to attend to. Sharks! I can feel my guilt compounding as I'm typing! Haha... Well, it was entertaining as usual, though I was pretty much on a rally with an audience of 3. Haha... No worries, this shall never happen again!

Anyway, wanna thank my folks for tolerating all my gibberish. That's why I'm not keen on MJ coz I'll probably end up crapping and boring everyone to death. Haha... And, thanx for helping me out on all the work. I owe Yi Hui a big one. Shall make up to her another time.

Got tonnes to do. Seems like it's not going to be a "recess" week afterall.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To Michelle,

Hey! After thinking through the whole issue between me and thrill, I reckon I was just being petty. It is probably a misunderstanding be it due to miscommunication or what not. I reckon I'm in no position to be angry, perhaps I have some twisted principles that I hold dear to... Haha... You have my apologies with regards to this issue. I guess there is no other better way to close this chapter than this avenue. We shall never bring this up again and leave it as such. By the way, I shall not hold any judgement against thrill coz honestly, I don't know him. Haha...

Cheers!
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Kind of having second thoughts about not going to F1 race. There and again , we'll most prob be sitting at different places so I guess, I shall give it a miss.



Before I forget, No SALMIAKKI for me, UNCLE HARRI!

Masking in progress... 16/09/08

Yes, as I am writing this entry, I have a mask on my face. And trust me, it is much needed, given my current skin condition with the big scar on my face, I'm so affected...

Anyway, been really kind of my folks for having me during their dinner time. Kind of guilty for bothering them since yesterday.

Hym... I think this is the closest I ever get to living alone. With my folks away, I pretty much have the house all to myself. Have always wanted to stay alone but doesn't seem to be able to do so. In fact, this is not the first time I have such freedom but somehow, it feels different. I reckon it comes with my age.

My head is starting to spin. Work seems to be piling up. Haiz...

I'm going to get myself a nice chain and pendant. Been so over due!

The calls didn't come anymore. I've figured it out long time back...

My blood still boils whenever I hear about that incident. Don't accuse me of something that I'm not guilty of. If there's a chance, I'll show you what's FAKE. And, gladly...

Moon cake Festival... 14/09/08

Was telling my friend that the closest I get to Lantern festival was nothing more than a box of Eclipse sweets, that has a logo that resembles much like a moon.

I can't remember what I was doing when it was this time last year. Probably wasn't really spectacular since I had no recollection at all. But I guess I have something to remember for this time round.


It was definitely a pleasant surprise. Was still wondering what it was all about. It was a nice gesture. Thanx a million!
Oh! I had choc from Veron too! Double surprises!

Hym... My folks are going to CHina tomorrow. Guess I'll be missing them quite a bit since they will only be back next Wednesday.

Feel alittle guilty that I won't be sending them to the airport. Argh...

This is going to be one hell of a week! So not looking forward to it! =(

Time to report!!!

I think my capacity towards jokes seems to have diminished. Can't quite seem to take even the slightest jokes even they are not meant with evil intentions.

My only solution is to walk away from it. =P

To lorraine... 12/09/08

THANK YOU!!!

---------/@

Tuition Odyssey... 12/09/08

Was late for tuition today. Was too preoccupied with my lab report. Though it was due this coming Friday, I reckon finishing it now would free up some time for me to concentrate on my FYP report. Speaking of which, I have yet to start on it. Haiz...

Anyway, I can feel that Jos' Mummy's anxiety over her son's PSLE preparation. Infact, I am getting a little anxious too. After all, his exams are really just round the corner.

Was already 10pm before I had the chance to feast on my well-deserved dinner. I guess this explains why my weight is always fluctuating.

"... ..."

The Walkers Family... 11/09/08

Whoo... I've officially finished watching season 2 of Brothers and Sisters! Glad to be able to concentrate on my work for a while before I get engulfed in season 3.

Favourite scene from season 2 would definitely be when Kevin and Scotty made the commitment to be life partners.

Photo courtesy of spoiler TV...

S.T.R.E.S.S.E.D... 11/09/08

It was around this time some years back when I received a sms from my pal, April, asking me to tune in to Channel NewsAsia. Was kind of surprised to receive the sms considering it was like during the wee hours of the day...

I took me a while to realise that what was shown on the TV wasn't part of a movie. It was the Twin TOwers up in flames...

It just daunt on me how vulnerable life is and, how unpredictable things can turn out to be.

A moment of silence in honor of those that perished. *silence*

I guess we'll never know when terrorists will strike again but one thing for sure, we should cherish those around us while we can.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Getting really stressed out. Can feel my workload piling up, not to mention I have a 10 page report due next Fri.

Help me...

Anyway, texts been pouring in quite ritually. I wonder how long it will last. The occasional calls are great.

I just hope for life to go on...

Work, work, work................

Just another day... 09/09/08

Pretty obvious I was bored half way through my mush dreaded Econs lecture that I actually whipped out my cell and snapped a pict. Anyway, it has always been a battle with the ZZZ monster during this lecture especially after spending more than 10 hours in school.


I use to tell my folks how I love the porridge that my mum occasionally dish out during the weekends. SO, here's a little peak into it. Honestly, it is really a simple meal but definitely a nice one.

Anyway, guess I'll be missing my folks for a while as they are going for a trip to CHina this coming Monday.

Cheers!

Bro & Sis... 07/09/08

OOps! I'm clearly consumed by the show... It is one hell of a good show man!



I'm so D.E.A.D...

Anyway, I think my friend kind of got blew away by my response and honesty. I know it is scary. I'm learning how to grab a grip, I hope you will too.

Cheers!

I've seen better... 06/09/08

The world is too fragile for people untrue.

There's too much at stake and

life's too short for lies...

You're the worst person in the world

becoz you wasted my heart and my time...

see, saw, seen... 05/09/08

I'm glad I have a clearer view and perspective over things now.

It's like the sunshine after the rain.

Time to get going!

Cheers!

Freedom... 03/08/09

I've trully figured it out that I am someone who needs alot of freedom to myself. I need some quiet space to myself, a time devoted to me alone only, every now and then.

I myself find it hard to keep up to it so I can totally understand how dificult it can be for the folks around me.

I really wonder how my better half is going to adapt to that in near future.

"Destiny is not a matter of chance,
It is a matter of choice.
It is not a thing to be wanted for,
It is a thing to be achieved."

LJ is good especially when you can choose who to read the entries that you post. Perhaps I should consider one too. There and again...

*Yawn* Pls for the last time I'm saying this, don't bring her into the pict. Thank you very much.

I was told not to mention her but I get that in my face every now and then even if it was part of a joke. I'm not sure if that's logical.

In summary, Text-ing is a highly misleading especially when you have someone who's a SSNAG.

Time to close this chapter and move on. Period.

I wanna be alone for a while. Thanx folks!

Lesson learnt: If you can't beat the flow, go with it.

SNAG or SSNAG... 02/09/08

Was just discussing how insensitive some people can be towards the feelings of others. And, I realise that I'm pretty much the opposite. I'm SSNAG! Super Sensitive New Age Guy...

It was a good gesture of my friend who offered some ginseng tea for me but when I saw...

"Go back hall and go ur house wif no car? I'm not in love wif you. Got car I don't mind..."

Hym... So I guess only when an individual is in love will he or she be willing to go the extra mile? Guess I must have been in love with you then to offer driving ur stuff back alone and carried the barang barang to your place, alone... Not to mention the rain...

ANyway, I'm thankful for the thought and reminders to take care of my health. Wasn't really expecting a trip down my area coz it's totally not logical. Guess I have weird interpretations. *pat pat* That's why they will always be my best folks.

Before this, was totally blown away by some comments made by someone whom I was not even acquainted with. Perhaps he derived some thrill by passing them but all I have to say is that they were cheap, dirt cheap.

Kind of lost my cool over it but after a brief thought, it wasn't really my privilege. Weren't say the rush of frustration came from the comments, more from the fact that the comments were initially planned to be kept from me. Haha...

I do agree for the "not-as-forth-coming" attitude when it comes to my own dealings these few days and so, I should not expect anything in return. Haha...

Talking about walking away, I'm running away.

Lesson learnt: In times of tension, keep quiet. It works!

Haha... Forgot to write about this in my previous entry.

I believe majority of the masses understand the efforts that the government has devoted to increase the birth rate in SIngapore, encouraging young individuals to get acquainted with the opposite sex.

I was about to jump on the bandwagon to fulfil the NAtional Duty when I got this interesting reply from one of my friends...

"Pls email me a recent photo of yourself and attach with it, a 100 word essay on your personal aspirations."

Whao! Matchmaking has certainly been brought onto a higher playing field.

Been disillusioned for awhile... Time to realign myself!

Seems like both us place friends pretty high on the priority list...

Got some things sorted out which I think is for the better despite the fact that my heart is bleeding as I am writing this entry...

We'll only have to see how everything goes on from here...

Anyway, reached home at about 930pm today. Had my Econs lecture and as usual, I have nothing but grumbles. The Lecturer was literally rushing through the last few slides in a desperate attempt to cover as much as possible, ignoring the end of lesson buzzer.

Talking about opportunity cost... I reckon attending the Econs lecture comes a greater cost than not attending it...

Sick... 01/09/08

*puke*

I feel so sick...

Both inside and outside...

and... I'm HUNGRY!

Perturbed... 21/08/08

Hym...

I'm perturbed over the comments my folks made on me. Seems like it is not just one, but a two...

The worst thing was, hearing it from someone whom I was hardly acquainted with...

I shd reflect or shd I just put the blame on...

I'm honestly, getting sick...

I wanna leave everything behind...

It's this close...
