been feeling abit lacklustre throughout the week... n not only that, i merely passed ippt. and that sucks... plunged my whole weekend into a basin of sian-ness.

but on a lighter note, chair's come back! n dad's back too!
but on a darker note, darren(vs) left for taiwan for a yr. ns is really screwing up all the lives of 19 n 20-yr old singaporean guys man.
but on a lighter note, there was s01 outing on sat!
but on a darker note, the turnout was quite a turnoff.
and on a darker note, Miss Clarity Cafe's was in general a letdown. but at least now we know.
but on a lighter note, we hung out at tcc till quite late!
and on a lighter note, the tcc slacking made me feel the outing wasn't quite wasted after all. (though i think it may have been for eugene hahah)

saw the TPJC MV on youtube... its quite nice but the starting part of the song could've at least been sung better n clearer. n i think the animated stuff wasn't really necessary. sort of contaminated the otherwise quite professional video.

watching the video, i felt somewhat foolish... that i didnt enjoy the whole of my JC life. when i moved from aj to tpjc in '05, i was down in the dumps n lamenting my life for getting myself into this jc. cuz i went from temasekpri to vs to aj n then to tpjc.. sort of a bitter pill to swallow, for someone who (i admit) was quite biased against neighbourhood schools n drew a fine line between. yes i know better now.:) being a victorian i wanted very much to go to vj but i couldn't n i somehow just couldn't get over it. not until j2, when i started to warm up to jc life... but by then, i realized i only had half a year to go before a lvls arrived n the ministry of enjoyment would wind up. of course... i only can say sorry to myself.

go and catch a falling star
get with child a mandrake root
tell me where all past years are
or who cleft the devil's foot
teach me to hear the mermaids singing
or to keep off envy's stinging
and find
what wind serves to advance an honest mind.

i want his board, dammit. i wanna b an astronaut now, then fly to a nebula or wait in space for a supernova, then abandon ship n jump into the Power Cosmic! haha i give it 3 1/2 planets out of 5, mainly cuz they couldnt bother to recreate Galactus... n galactus isn't a thundercloud!

my first time to chevrons... wasnt a gd first impression unfortunately. its a nice place as i saw on the way in, but we went straight to the ktv pub. the tobacco in the air didnt really help... n the fact of the day: the waitresses r imported not from America, not from China, not from any other place u'd even think of importing foreign talent from, but - lo n behold, Philippines. The young lady didnt understand what "Is the pool table spoilt?" meant.

n HENG ar i managed to refuse beer. after succumbing to a string of things before that. hey, i know whats the diff between 'can' n 'cannot' ok.

sentosa was sort of a disaster cuz of the weather... played vball rained and shined at the wrong times... in the end i just relived childhood playing with the sand n the waves. and beached debris. making a wall/fortress of sorts with a bottle cap as a company logo.

Hills Have Eyes is Damn boring, n then Damn exciting, or thrilling, more like. disc 1 is filled with talking n disc 2 is filled with suspense, thrill, shock, gore n brutality. haha dont ask me where i watched it. u can guess it in 2 tries.

the JPEGs n AVIs has already been invented;
the MP3s n WAVs have already been invented;
when are they going to invent something that can record smells? when r they gonna capture experiences?

and when are they gonna invent an emotion-capturing device? or a dreamcorder?

i dunno whats wrong with me... feeling quite sleepy now cuz im in the ops room. in any case guess what... i was disinclined to acquiesce to his request but i ended up not being disinclined enough. thats how i landed up here now. Someone please teach me how to say no. a jc classmate once remarked that i never say no... im starting to wonder whether i was right then to laugh it off. i mean for serious parts, as in not counting the way i say No to my bro tt kind. wah lao. but for now it doesnt really affect me cuz he says he'll confirm do one for me next month. i'm gonna see how.

n now tt i said it i just remembered. in the resource centre's Temporary Loan Book got one guy's rank/name LTC Wah See How... hahahah the parents abit the thanks know... so like something i'd say in a conversation- "wah... see how first la" or sth liddat rite haha... shenyean once told me mj had a guy called Ming Soon... sounded totally normal until he told me his surname was Kam. hahah dunno whether he talking cock anot.

okok sry sry i apologize... my name also no meaning la k... what Bra flows far into a dragon (sounds liddat in chinese la... but then again my chinese abit cmi)

lClMlRlCl stands for Chaogeng, Malingering & Relaxing Cooperative... where there can only be two Words of the Day- Physiotherapy and M.A. (Medical Appointment). wah lao eh asthma, knees, back all got MA... now even got such thing as excused formation duty (read: slack in Ops Room until get economy class syndrome n sian of internet)... hmm maybe i should go get my Ear checked... maybe Its Overflowing with Wax and Infection is Setting In! OMG! i can't hear what i'm saying! I need... a Medical Appointment!

caught this on sat. cool... as always. would've given it a half star-short of full five if not for basket jeff who called me halfway through the show

"eh bryan where r u arh... y u not in camp? warrant pancha looking for u"

in the end he just wanna know what nice food the east has... tamade like tamago... lost me 5 min of the movie (tts quite alot for a movie know... abt the same as visiting the loo halfway through.)

while us Thyroxine was walkin in marina square b4 tt we met weitian n AhPok n their group.. but tk nt there forgot y alr alamak. they suddenly came out of some boutique - shoppers milking the GSS for all its worth haha... cant believe i never at all made use of this wonderful government effort. havent bought anything under the gss yet... hmm

and House of the Dead 4 is all the rage now... ppl just keep trying to get past The Lovers. hahaha what a crap name for an overgrown tarantula...

n today... i got momentary stupefaction on the mrt. i went to tampines to eat, then on the way back i met LYDIATANTAN on the mrt with her sis malvina. i stunned for some seconds then i realized tt she already came back yesterday haha. they were going to vch for a concert... only had time from tampines to tanah merah to chat... n she seemed eager to find out abt 01ers, so S01 WHEN R WE MEETING AGAIN?? this weekend?

oh yeah n i read Who Moved My Cheese? (recommended to me by eugene recommended to whom by his sgt). there's a treasure of a lesson to be learnt frm it... it basically told me sth i never realized before. but the wisdom aside, there's nt much to imagine lah... it keeps things simple, working solely on character-building; doesnt engage alot of the brain nor the heart nor the mind's eye (unfortunately the thing i want most from a book). but anw thats the purpose of the book, as for most such books too... so i dunno y i said tt load of crap.

my fellow resource clerk sam is MIA most of the time, hasnt touched the website since i touched it, somehow proffers his part of resource to me, n now asks me to stand in for his overnight stint as duty clerk, for which he would thence be unable to repay me one next month.

I am disinclined to acquiesce to his request. - quoted from Captain Barbossa

one for friday
its a good show in fact...
all abt the psychology. or maybe just my psychology. cuz it offers nothing mundane n everything mystical, in the disney way.
damn i like how they came back from world's end... philoso-conceptual...
up is down.
not sunset, but sundown

n one for sunday
super corny n maisy yet still funny... in the typical shrek's random/ all-at-once/ anticlimax/ spoofy kinda humour. n the story's plot actually unravels! if ur down in the dumps this show should put the smile back in u :D

yo, ho
haul together
hoist the colours high.
heave ho
thieves n beggars
never say we die.

i was in a half-sized car n dad was driving up a HDB staircase with a low ceiling. i was some kancheong spider n yet he was like "dont worry lah, i told u can already..." n surprisingly he manoeuvred it, slowly, all the way to the dead end at the top n parked it there. n somehow we could still get out easily. i walked down the stairs, heard some sound tt was damn irritating, then nxt thing i realized it was my freaking alarm clock. what a weird dream...


haha this is my portrait of yuezhi's colleague's daughter. my first ever portrait... done using two saturdays of formation duty. couldn't figure out exactly what kinda hairclip was tt so i changed it... n i think i unlocked the skill to drawing hair hahha (straight/wispy style sorry.) all it takes is a mixture of 3B,HB, a lil' confidence n patience. n i also realized i made the jacket a tad oversized. dammit hahaha but anw its a first lah so can close one eye (i normally open both n put toothpicks to prevent them frm closing one). but its still unfinished. gonna add a few more childish touchups to it before i Fixatif it :D yeah man woohoo!

I hate alcohol.

i never drank more than half a shot of alcohol (excluding champagne) in my entire life... so u can rightfully call me a noob- a serious noob at tt yet on wed nite i went overboard. went to O Bar with some of my platoonmates n got into some serious shit... not as in fight or what... some serious shit to my health. so for anyone out there who's interested in what an overboard first experience feels like pls read on.

firstly i dunno wads so nice abt alcohol. the taste simply sucks (to me tt is). they'll put like a shot of the alcohol into a cup with ice then fill it up with another normal drink, then they call it something else. anyhow lar

ok first when i went in i had the standard free drink- the one with sprite... i dunno the name... i was quite thirsty so i felt ok. then wayne ordered 3 more jugs, which meant 3 more cups for me. some redbull one, another one i think its some mary dunnowhat (?), n i forgot the 3rd one is what. Four cups! but surprisingly on the 4th cup i still felt normal... only a few minutes after tt my ears suddenly felt super hot n like got air pressure liddat (the kind when ur on the plane). thats when i knew i was abnormal alr.

we went out for awhile to look for chenyang n scott. after tt when we went back in, wayne &%!&#%)#!Q%* went to get one more jug n final-ed it with a freaking tequila shot for everyone. 5 cups + 1 tequila shot is enough to get many veterans off alr, wadya think it did to me... awhile after tt i went to the toilet n puked. until there was nothing left to puke n yet i still puked air, if u know what i mean... in the process my nose even bled. my throat was sore n damn dry. and to top it all the bitter taste lingered there like a poison attack. went out of the bar n rested there for a long time before i went home.

experience? u bet it was man... oh ya n not to mention. when i was in the restroom i didnt recognise the face in the mirror. looked like something out of a horror flick.

well i've had my first and last booze. a sip of champagne like at mums bday party, thats ok. clubbing + frens - alcohol thats still ok. going for "a few drinks" thats not tehping, over my freaking dead n buried body man.

lunching at siglap food centre n pooling at parkway yesterday suddenly seemed so much more heavenly haha. went to meet mum n dad at suntec too- for what else but Sitex! i could've almost gotten an apple notebook frm dad but wth man apple doesnt have a booth there. n there was no time to go look at every other reseller's booth.

n suntec's foodrepublic now is very nicely ambienced. but only one thing... No Meaning sia. eating in an antique library. no link...


SevenOhFive - Skid Marks. saw this on youtube... its damn funny hahahahah
