It's the end of May; and a new month of June! I really should be typing, but I don't know what to type. My minds a full of blank and there're alot of things to do.

There was this one day when I saw a shade of green and white heron birds flying pass. Purple sakura-looking flowers laid the grounds and the warm sun kissed my cheeks. I wish the old place still stood; like the huge fields at Marina Bay. I could fly my colorful vibrant kite there with him... Although the temprature of the weather was warm, the air was cool and comfortable...

I was then awoken by a huge thud on the seat next to me on a Friday morning on my way to work.

ok well, I just wanted to enter an entry for May la.

all hugs month of June.

suddenly I had a glimpse of an uncle living on the 6th storey. His hair was all silver.

growing old with time and how amazing the human body fades away into the essence of life.

toiling through the pains of age, the mind, the body, the facets of multiple journeys.

many events, good and bad, many events although unfazed, memories etched faint and/or stanched.

I believe everyone should make the best of their days, for when we've gone we'll sail with the wind.

Facebook

2009-04-20T13:31:00.002+08:00

I'm not on FB and I don't need it. Thanks

Reasons why I'm not on FB and why I won't have an account.

1) I have enough friends.
2) Nothing beats "slapping" and "punching" your friends in REAL-LIFE
3) Throw pillow? -_-"
4) I like to have selected and friends exclusive.
5) It's gonna be like bubble-tea.
6) I don't want to be trackable.
7) Broadcasting myself? Nah, I don't think so...
8) It's rewinding back to the past.
9) I prefer flying kite and doing something else more productive.
10) I think it's silly.

End of March 2009

2009-03-31T10:30:00.002+08:00

We have come to the end of March 2009. What have you done?

Human thing is very funny. It has no qualms about anything. It destroys and builds at the same time. It has the power to control and the power to fail. It has the ability to construct and also the means to crumble.

How?

It has been made to withstand crash and being tested for quality. While others mulfunction; others thrive.

Factory rejects. Branded individual.

It's an organism within an organism. It's strange but true.

I wonder what joke will April play tomorrow and if the joke is on us humans...

You accidentally stepped on my crocs (almost my toes) and you didn't bother to turn around and apologise. The MRT jerked forward and I accidentally stepped your heel you turn over and hissed at me (while playing your PSP)

Do you really reckon that playing game excretes this violence? I guess like anything you do with vigor and concentration, at some point if you were to be "disturbed" you would probably unleash a percentage of violence.

Let me explain why.

Take this one scenario.

You are having a dump in the toilet, your mother yells at you, while you were in the midst of dumping that piece internally. Suddenly because of that yell and while you were concentrating so hard for it to pop out, that piece instincly retracts and disappears into the blackhole.

Obviously you'd feel like fugged.

I'd feel fugged.

Perhaps the games add on to come character power of "violence" but I guess in any instance, if you were disturbed, you'd feel like you need to retaliate or some shit...

Would you not?

I guess...

3. While R&D.ing on making confirmed gender of babies possible; they are on route to R&D.ing the "choose-your-babie's-eye-colour" medical miracle. I want a purpink eyeball colour! :p

4. Fast Food chains in SG are expanding amists the gloom. Choke!

So, I tried my hands on AE and am totally in love with it. (Thanks to tutorials from youtube that made this first attempt possible...:D)

Being a thankful soul...

2009-02-22T20:01:00.004+08:00

It's important to be thankful; because taking something or someone for granted is not being very nice. Saying "Thank You" and or giving people a smile to acknowledge a kind gesture is a free movement. It doesn't take much by saying a simple thanks or smiling. It's free of charge. However, I've noticed that out of 10 people who moved out from a lift and being the last person out (who presses the "open" door button) I only get 1 out of 10 thanks. Of course I'm not asking for everyone to thank me and as the saying goes "never expect something in return, or you'll be disappointed..."

My half observe that the commuters on public transport during the mornings has a very sullen look. They dread the morning, they dread the crowd, they dread their "neighbour's" odour, they dread the time taken to reach their destination, they dread everything surrounding them. Could we be more gracious at all? I invaded a tiny pore of space and you go "tsk"; what's that about man..? The space around is already so tight and you're still reading the papers... flicking your long hair and using your humongous bag as a pushing shield... It's totally disgusting. Thank goodness I only have 2 stops away from work.

I think being a thankful soul makes us a better and happier person. You "shrug" away unkindness and leaving a smile on your face really makes a difference. You untrouble yourself by not thinking negative thoughts and using positivity in against your anguish definitely calms your mind... I say; TRY IT. Try saying thank-you to that bus-uncle tomorrow... Try saying thank-you to whom ever is holding onto the lift for you, try smiling and above all, try being a thankful soul for yourself... :)

:) It's gonna be a great work week!

What if there wasn't I?

2009-01-30T16:09:00.003+08:00

What would you do if one day you discovered you were not who you are? What if one day you wake up knowing you are someone else? What reaction will you have?

"What if there wasn't I" is written to celebrate those people who choose an otherwise path in their lives. They are those who make a difference; be it a correct or incorrect way. This is written, also to celebrate the fact that one day you chose not to be you anymore.

You give up I and become You

You become this unique and specific species.

You become You; not me, not I, but You.

You choose to rebel against the fact that you were I for the rest of your life and take up this challenge to become otherwise.

You choose to take that alternative route in life in order to revelate.

You disclose this other character and take over the host and finally reveals You.

For you whom I would like to be; for you whom I may be in time; for you whom I will become...

For you...

Happiness for the 牛 year!

Tattoo Convention Singapore 2009

2009-01-11T20:49:00.003+08:00

Visited the first ever tattoo convention in Singapore held at the EXPO on the 10th of Jan with my half. Boy was I excited, cos Chris Garver was there. Saw some of my students there too. All in all, the experience was awesome... too bad Kat Von D wasn't in, else I'd go more ga-ga-er. haha... Here's a snapshot of Chris signing some autographs but I wasn't in the mood to queue to get his signature. I'm happy with this shot anywayz :D~

Anyway, school is starting so I'm rather excited. Another 17weeks of work and holidays starts again... Anyway CNY is really round the corner and things are bustling at home now and getting quite festive... I'm sure there're so much things to do now...

Well, I'mma just gonna catch up with my half and have an early night. Ciao guys~ :3

Save Save Save...

2009-01-06T21:44:00.002+08:00

I've felt better after junking a percentage of my stuff out. And with the help of my half, we sorted out the stuff I needed to price and sell it at a flea-market. I've got roughly about 2·5 bagful of items for sale and will be selling it at the changi market area after CNY.

Guess the season CNY is just around the corner. Eat again. Gonna need to work out soon and blow the fats away. I also need to watch what I eat and gonna be taking less fried and oily food and try to have more fruits and veggie for my meals from now on. I guess my spending also need to slowly curb. From the amount of things that I have, I know sometimes I spend on impulse and it's really bad. Yes I know I will spend less cos I have to save for other things from now on already. *grin* Have to save for the future right aka.chan?!

I think I am quite good already and I think I will open another savings account soon once I get my Jan salery and that will set aside $$$ for the future. The $ saved will be used to buy other things. How exciting! :D

Woo Hoo

2009-01-01T11:04:00.002+08:00

It's 2009! More things to come... I've passed my e-paper btw! Yay! To my half, work hard and have fun in your new working habitat! :) XOXO

The Curious Case of Quirk.

2008-12-29T19:31:00.002+08:00

Glitter and sparkles, gun-shouting voices, those odd lime green pop-eye sandals and hugs and kisses from parents. You weren't exactly embarrassed while having those moment as a child were you? Where have they all gone? It's like life is slowly taking those child-like quirk moments from us day by day, hour by hour and it's only by chance of observation that it sparks a thought of de jevu.

I can't help by staring at a little toddy girl's top today in the MRT and I think to myself why is it that we can't wear those any more. Obviously we'll look stupid and it's like an attention seeking top. The little girl's top was filled with rainbows, sunshine, glitter and sparkles, flowers and bees and some sequents made into a shape of a horizon.

As we all age, some of us grow to be rather sophisticated and wearing anything to do with childhood fashion = obnoxious. Well, some still prefer to stay well within their child-like years and resume those child-like fashion till they "wake-up" one day.

Writing this really seem to make me feel "older". Although I am disinterested in being a grown up, somehow, time makes you realise things and I guess at a certain point in life, you have to really make way and well, I guess move with times. It's really odd to see an adult behaving like a child (unless he's handicapped) even so, we as humans sometimes still look(stare) at such people. Other species makes their scene in wearing childy fashion and looking equally stupid.

I don't know maybe I am getting "older" and trying to make sense out of growing up and thus I am sprouting these irrelevant notes. But I would pretty much LOVE to dress my kids up one day!

Merry Molidays!

2008-12-26T11:31:00.002+08:00

Happy Christmas, sorry a day late as I was enjoying and soaking up the festive fun and cheer and giving and collecting presents to and from all over! hehe :D

Media influenza

2008-12-14T12:14:00.003+08:00

I always believe that times have changed and that there are so much media and info-ready materials for society to grab. What will happen to schools one day? The "world" has so much more to offer; so much more excitement then an academically confined container. I wonder a school has somewhat become a place where people convene to chat about their exhilarating happenings.

But of course, there're still a minority who still are really hardworking and genuinely out to make the best of their school years. I guess what my teacher said before was rather true; school is the best place to be, so enjoy your stay because the working world is a whole new different story and one day, when you work, you'll look back and say, school was (somehow) a better place to be...

Anyway, I guess Zouk-Out is officially over this morning. I wonder how many more poor people's belongings have gone M.I.A. i.e. handphones and wallets... It's raining now and rather gloomy; best time to sleep now man!

Anyway, my half stumble upon a site from my "bro's" site and Imma gonna introduce it here too as I think it's really a nice and awesome blog by a fellow SG blogger. Her site is clipped onto my e-journalist, although she doesn't use much words... http://www.stickgal.blogspot.com <-- Go on and look at it! It's really cool!!!
