where did it all go ?

Being on long break is numbing my mind (not that it isn't when i'm not on break)

For the longest time i think my mind is too unoccupied and is just idly rotting away. Already i feel most of the knowledge i've picked up from school over the years withering away.

Honestly, i think it's happened to alot of people and it's just sad! For example most people can't even write in their 2nd language or speak it well!

Anyway.

Issues at hand. I think i'm drinking too much. Club less, no. Drink less, yes. I've been losing days for a couple of weeks now... meaning like today i don't quite remember what happened two days ago. It takes some pondering to recover those memories... something i attribute to drinking and sleeping at odd hours. Gaming thru the night and surfing the net is the culprit for this. Lookie here, i'm still blogging at 641am ... says something doesn't it.

Well Hari Raya just passed. Partied on the eve at double O, great party! Huge crowd, like i've not seen fer a long time at double O. Me and JJ headed down but the beer binging dude got his arse handed to him and kicked into a cab at one! ONE! Gosh but still it was a great night....

My friend is quitting her job at O this sat being her last day... Booo!!!! No more impromptu free entries for me then >.< but i think she should move on from working as a smiling photographer at a club. You go girl~ I feel like there's so much on my mind... so much of my life i need getting together...

The word is : PROCRASTINATION.

Yeeeeaaaahhhh. It's the ol' why do it today when you can do it tomorrow? I promise myself that imma work on ma studies to make sure i do well... i might even do that thesis and get ma-self that extra degree! Like O said, "Wad?!? A degree for ONE thesis ???"

Yup.

But hey, 5 years related work experience for the title CPA is no joke and definitely no walk in the park is it? Currently i'm living it up retirement style. Meaning lots of partying bumming eating and no obligations no(t much) worries and just having a fine time.

Got to go catch some zZz now, long day (of shopping clubbing n reduced drinking) ahead.

Monday

It's another monday!

Anyway.

Haven't been blogging much recently, maybe it's the whole gaming, sleeping, waking up, eating and clubbing and drinking cycle? Haha life is one big hangover and recovery from hangovers..

My 2008 resolution (and probably most of 2009) is to do well in my studies. Nothing (much) else matters.

Roarrrrr! To a great upcoming year! To good results and winning more at my chosen vices!

Nothing much else interesting happening recently... cept serious drinkin! Gotta keep it down. :\


Well i will touch on a little incident from way back i remember...
Normally on my msn only a few people will talk to me, namely my closer friends but once i remembered when i put my nick as

"Wow xXx product really makes my skin smoother and fairer"

after using some facial product, i had my com on fer most of the day and when i returned i had more than a dozen windows (from girls) asking if it was true.... lol....

Hmmm.

A friend got married today.


Hmmm. What is marriage to me? Naah not going into that now.

Bought my first Christmas buy so far. A watch! It's also a very ironic buy for the following reason.

I was at a sale on Sat, a branded watch and accessories sale. Brands ranging from Fossil, Diesel, CK DKNY and so on were on but there wasn't anything eye catching... in fact anything above average was also that in price. Dejected, me and O went for dinner at Carls Jr. which perked things right up. Try the sour dough option when you order burgers there, it's worth your time (exercising it off).

*Sour dough = Bread pan fried in butter*

Anyway after dinner we were walking around and chanced upon this push cart selling watches so we had a look. Boom this watch just grabbed my attention like one of those things. It's like 1/10 of the price of a decent watch from the sale and i like it even better! I even got the strap changed fer free so in my mind it's a great deal. Would post a pic but the reflective surface didn't quite agree with my k800i camera. Oh well.

If you see me i'll be sure to flaunt my great buy to ya. wOo~

Waaahhhh.. going nuts

Don't know why that is the case but i really feel so!!!

Tomorrow is the photo shoot that i'm doing with O and we're currently at the boutique doing our sizing and it's been more than an hour just doing her fitting. Argh. We also came an hour late

PS PS Vicky!~

Anyway went thru everything and boarded ferry to Bintan fer shoot. The boat ride was kinda rocky but i got so nauseous i don't even know why! Normally i'm not like that.

Anyway we went to quite a few locations, got pretty dirty due to rain and all. Basically everything i wore got stained. Mud sand grit rain water salt water you name it i've got it. So much fantastic scenary at the kelongs and the resort! Winds were darn whippy today, it felt so good, like a breath of fresh air...

Today i am (well me and O are) the freak show. Maybe not freak show but the eye catching. Imagine a bride and groom walking around rural areas of Bintan. The kids love us. The chickens and chicks running around are so cute. We had lunch at this "Kopitiam" where the menu is in Malay but has an English translation under each line. Interesting.

The food was fuggin cheap! It's like 6000 rp to 1 SGD. All of us had like a fried rice/beehoon /noodle and a drink and it came up to like S$2.50 / pax! The main i had is like 1.16 SGD. Chinese style mee goreng. Lol.

After a long day out we returned to the resort for more shooting. Everyone was kinda exhausted cept Georgie the photographer, going strong. Took shots by the beach and got splashed by an expected wave. NOT FUNNY. I did get to lie on a huge hammock like those you see in the ads and it was so cool, the weather was like blasting winds, swaying coconut trees blue skies... unbelievably like something out of a post card~

Anyway.

When that was all said and done, we finally got to go back to SG! (duh) The computer hugging land lubbing (me) is glad to be back. Even though the boat road was rockier than the one to the island, EVERYONE slept thru it. That's how tired we were.

Now i'm just home waiting for Macdonalds to arrive. Good ol' SG deliveries.

OMG the list is longer than i remembered.

Note to self: Rainy roads are to be respected.

They just don't get it.

Just finished playing Dota.

For those of you who don't know what it is, i won't bother explaining. Well, just suffice to say it's like football of 5v5, and you get to choose what kind of player you want to be example a striker defender midfielder and so on.

You can play this by getting your buddies to form a team or going into a random game and waiting for people to join up.

Here's where it gets annoying. Everyone wants to be a star or have their own team. Result? You get one side with 5 well rehearsed players with TEAM WORK (because it is after all a team game)
and the other side with maybe say 4 Cristiano Ronaldos and one Van da Sar.
Meaning a team of soloists who can't work with one another getting their arse kicked. It's happened so much i really wonder if people have the brains to THINK! Sure it's a game but we all like games that reflect reality. Think a project where everyone wants to do the presenting and look good but no one wants to do the research behind it, no one wants to do the slide preparations yada yada yada...

When i step (further) into society i'm going to make anyplace that i settle into a better one. Efficiency and part of a team.

To those who prefer otherwise, BANG.

why.

I don't ask for any returns, just to be appreciated. Being shot down is not my idea of that.

However i've been thru worse and i refuse to let something like this get me down. It will come into consideration when i determine the kind of person i ultimately end up as.

Nice guys finish last.

Once i was a firm believer of that. Then i thought, "maybe it's not true?"

Now i wonder.

Baaah. Why do we bother denying our instincts? Even the comic strip on my wall is a personalised version of online cartooning.

I should tear down the October exercise chart, makes no sense leaving it up there. Tomorrow then. The bass makes the music come out somewhat distorted. Fix equaliser settings. Blew more than a day's wages on dinner WTF.

That's probably why i'm peeved. Partially.

BAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

Calming down now. It's so ironic. Now I'm so angry peeved pissed off i can feel like this stream of molten rock flowing thru my veins taking the place of blood. It wants to burn and melt everything in its way but there is nothing to burn. Well not nothing but i choose to divert its course. Like i said earlier today, i'm a thrifty person. I cut down on the amount of grief that others can give me and the amount of grief i dish out.

Sigh.
Tired of being a pillar. Tired of being the apologizing party. TIRED TIRED.
For the heck of it i've posted a recent pic of how fat i've become and one in which i wasn't so pissed but decided to take it off. Itz da Uglys.


Cant be bothered to tinker too much so here goes.

Feeling unappreciated.

Know of self change but only i know it.

Honesty is like taking vitamins, there's only so much one can take.

The myth of communicating by telling each other how their day was is a load of crap.

Happiness is like drawing a straight on a piece of paper with a old school lead pencil. It only takes a little to send the paper into the trash.

No i didn't fucking get these from anywhere but my head.

Lazy sunday

Was supposed to go for MJ today but due to certain circumstances couldn't make it. Sorry Matt!

Hmmm.

Why do the birds hate me? Every time i drive to the open air carpark opp Cineleisure, birds bombard my vehicle w/ droppings. Poop. SHIT! Very distressing mind you. To make things more annoying i look at the 8-10 cars in front and they ALL seem to be shit FREE. ARghHHhh...

Just got back from Jurong pt. I swear that it's a horrible idea to go for dinner and a light walk at a heartland mall (like JP) during the festive season. People mountain people sea!!~!!
This festive season i have resolved myself to get

2 pairs of decent pants (never enough of those)
1 vest.

Got myself a couple of emo tees yesterday, yeah emo tees! It's so the in thing for people (young punks) to have the emo look right now. Dinner and people watching at Cine last night proved my point...... a 'parade' of guys walking one behind another sporting similar builts, hair-styles and dress sense. Need i say more.

Anywaaaaay. Bought a couple of tees from this booth outside (packed w/ peeps) and i said to O suddenly...
Me: "Hey, what do u call these shady people selling the Emo tees?"
(profiting off the trend of the moment)
O: "Dunno."
Me: "Emoticons." (Emo-tee-cons)

That is the favourite joke of the moment. Hah.

For 23 years and many months, i have finally found the secret to proper cleaning of canvas shoes! Apparently i've just been using the wrong kinda cleaning apparatus. Bah!

For you clubbers out there, the SAFRA FUSE card is a MUST GET. Why? I signed up thru the safra webbie for a 1.5yr application and for $10 ($15 -5 for being a safra member) i have already received from them

2 free entry tickets to MOS w/ 4 drink coupons worth $40.
1 Zoukout ticket worth $48

That's $88 already! All this and i've not even gotten my bloody card yet. Imma call them tomorrow to bitch about it. Though it's kinda dumb to give one Zoukout tix, i do appreciate the value of the things they're giving. Anyway i got the ticket sat night thru the mail and i sold it for $30 on sunday via Yahoo auctions. Wootz.

Not a bad deal all in all i'd say.
