Understanding A Woman

A Woman is a temptous creature
Her veins flow with emotions
Even logic does not defy the feelings in their breasts
The senseless things that they do
Are practiced with the ways of the heart

Indeed sometimes they do unfathomnable things
But a reason behind it do always exist
For Eve didn't give the apple to Adam for him to fall into the valley of sins
Her wish is just to share all of hers with him
Jealousy is a way to protect her relationship
Anger is an expression to get attention
Disappointment shows her high hopes for you
Tears reveals the longing sadness in her heart

Happiness is really hard to attain for her
For her self conflicting drives manipulate her head everyday
Miss Independent still wants a Man to depend on
She wants to have every moment of his, but still wants space on her own
They say the best thing you can give is your full attention
But she doesn't want to be an attention seeker
Her animus wants to dominate, but she wants to feel dominated
She wants to feel protected
But sometimes she wants you to strip her of all her protection
She is monogamoust
But never fails to fantasize
She would die to hear your compliment
But she hates an ass kisser
She desires a strong Man
But she wants some weaknesses in him

Yes beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder
But beauty kills too
She holds her body both in pride and contempt
She loves the way they lock their gazes at her
But she doubts that anyone could be ever sincere
Because her true beauty lies beneath
But who can truely see it?

The words of their angsty masculinity

Are expressed all over

Their shirts scream "BITCH" or "I'm SEXY"

Are nothing more than a mere expression of their animus

Their domineering sides desperately fighting off oppression from society

They just want a stage to shine

But I wonder why Man are so afraid

So offended by what seemingly to them to be outrageous behaviour

Some say its egoistic behavior , some say its injustice

But I say it's just Man's weakness

Of being afraid of what they can't understand

Perhaps one day Juliet will find Romeo
But Romeo doesn't know
Mr. Right is not someone that SEEMS right
He is someone that makes her FEEL right
He is someone who understands

But how odd how queer
How can you ever understand such a creature?
Perhaps if Man ever thought to put LOGIC aside
And accept FEELINGS
He will then see the key to understanding his partner
And perhaps despite being cast out of the garden
Eve would find true happiness with Adam
In their very own world

Everything

If protecting you means giving up everything

I will gladly do so

Because, without you, my world is nothing

Reconciliation

Ok I'm not really a very religious man. But I still accompanied my bro to his very first Reconciliation and Confession. Lol its funny to see all the kids so excited.

My bro having his confession. Don't worry, the conversation is private.

We had about 100++ kids to be reconciled so haha imagine the wait. Fascinated Dad and Mum with my phone a while and before I knew it, it was over.

Some pics of me and my family ;)

Gotta plan my schedule tommorow. Got goals to keep and plans to stick to. And yes, I will keep my promise.

Halloween Party and more updates!

Gosh it's been a long time I blogged. Well with my busy list of schedule and learning, I guess it justifies the cause.

So many interesting things happened last week. We had a photoshoot by the school on Friday and darn it was good to be in a suit. Ok it was hot posing under the sun with a suit for about 20 minutes and the photographer was a bit gay. To make things worse, he was wearing an Abercrombie and Fitch T-shirt. Lol for those who watched the Mad-TV parody, you know why I nearly blurted out laughing the moment I saw him. Yeah braw! Lol.

Anyway the photoshoot was long but awesome cos I had a great bunch of friends I know taking the photos with me. It's great to know that the photos you take with your friends are gonna be used for something probably big. Lol. I'm sorry we threw you on the ground after the last pic Jiafeng lol haha but you were too heavy. And Serbian was damn funny. During the hand shaking shot, for some reason the photographer didn't see eye to eye to our expressions. He kept saying "more emotions or expressions" (whichever was it). Lol Serbian just blurted a "Hi Bitch" which was damn funny. Had to control my laughter and look professional lol. We took a group photo after that but haha I haven't got the pics from the peeps. Only have 2 pics here.

Anyway after the photoshoot we were supposed to turn up for Halloween party in school with Hazel, Serbian and Lester. Went to pick up Pam after school but on our way they left so we changed our minds. Ate with Pam at Dhoby Gaught but I was kinda upset cos I spent a lousy Halloween this year.

But Pam was so sweet. She suggested going to Clarke Quay to party at a pub. Some people there were out of their minds. There was these two guys dressed as a banana and a carrot. Wow scary. But their hot friends were great. These girl dressed as a sexy cop and another had a skirt so short that her ass could be seen. Luckily she had a nice ass so it looks befitting. I guess Hazel's right. Halloween is the only time a girl can dress all slutty. Lol.

At the pub we gulped down a concoction of some sort and totally got high (nope it was alcohol not drugs lol). The pub had a DJ and there was alot of space. We danced and raved with all the Caucasians and it was fun. This girl is totally crazy. She can dance and her moves were like wow. I think she totally owned the Caucasians. You are totally the dancing queen girl haha. But thanks for cheering me up with a party. YOU SAVED MY HALLOWEEN! Sorry that you missed your train but I think it was worth it ;)

Celebrated Jiaping's birthday on Sat with Mandl, Jovian and Bryce. Lol Bryce is damn funny. Seriously I declare on my blog that Bryce is a totally awesome guy to be with. I'm not gay (Duh look at the chicks around me) but he's really a funny guy. His gf gonna be really lucky next time. Haha he has the gift of making people laugh. Anyway we surprised Jiaping with a cake and had Ajisen. Lol after the celebration we had a treat from a Bboy group from Korea and they were good, though not as good as Gamblerz. Haha but the guy could do quite a number of flares, for Singapore standard quite ok already lol.

It's fast really. Monday of 4th week already. Dad is still bugging me about the portrait that I sorta promised to draw for church stuff. Lol don't know how to tell him I don't like to draw under stress. Counter-productive. Anyway lots happened recently , I grew up and BAM! The world needs me. Lol ok abit exaggerating but when you're a mature 20 year old, you'll get me. Good luck to Jov on your plan. Elo my brother!

HSM is great! And is Lara Croft sexy or what?

I had a really fruitful day today. I've been devoting alot of my time to self-improvement and increasing my skills. Having an Iphone has open up the possibilities of learning all day long as I can read my documents and watch my videos whenever I want to.

Went out with Jovian today to watch High School Musical 3 at Bishan!

We got owned when we entered the cinema. We were all surrounded by kids lol. A mum looked at us and jokingly asked :" I think all of them are too young for this."

Lol I said: "No I think we're too old." Haha were we owned...

Anyway HSM 3 was a blast! Ok ok don't shoot me but whenever I look at Vanessa Hudgens I think of Pamela. Looks like I got my answer. Anyway the movie was fabulous and it really got me thinking about all the things I should do before we reach senior year ourselves. I've still got alot to do with my friends. Graduation is essentially a joyous and yet sad occasion as we will all be going separate ways. But we're lucky, at least we are not going to different states ;) Yeah we are all in this together :)

After the movie we had lunch at our favourite S11 chicken rice hangout. Gave Jov a little more insight on his love life but obviously I said a little too much. He has been thinking about it and his mind is bugging him all day now. Lol poor jov but you know what to do. You're the man haha!

We went to Marina Square afterwards for the X08 convention. The best place to buy a game for Xbox gamers. Boy were we owned there. Not by games,

But by Lara Croft.

Meet Alison Carrol, the newest Tomb Raider joining the ranks of Angelina Jolie in the newest Tomb Raider series: "Tomb Raider Underground".

This morning's program plus meeting Alison Carrol real life was a big insight. I was not blown away by the fact that she was hot but it was something else. The scale has just increased. I guess that's bad news for all women. I think only Jov and Bryce know what I'm talking about lol. Good stuff.

So being the clever guys, we got Alison Carrol to pose with the hot guys ;)

Well we had Sg models posing with Alison too. But you know the odds. Haha yes yes I'm evil.

Lara Croft is more that a character of a game. Just like James Bond is the sex symbol of all men, Lara Croft is the sex symbol of all women. Modern active women inspire and relate to her like no other modern women in history. Therefore choosing a suitable candidate to bring Lara to life was an extreme process.

Hundreds of women were tested in all kinds of skills be it martial arts, flexibility and gymnastics. In the end, Alison Carroll, a 23 year old gymnast and receptionist from Croydon, UK, was selected.

And yeah she's hot. Check out some pics of her from her game photoshoot.

Can't wait for the game's official release. If possible, I'm gonna get my hands on one. Heard that the graphics and gameplay are awesome. And thanks Alison Carrol, for the inspiration. I see the source of another problem, and I'm gonna solve it. And yeah ultimately, thanks Jov for the inspiration you given too. Don't get too cocky haha and best of luck to you too bro ;)

Good Job!

Well well... I'm so darn happy to see my bro's got his part of his Life handled. He even gave me tips! Woah! Lol. I mean I used to be the one giving him tips.

You rock bro. Keep it up! You know who you are.

And yeah, you definitely qualify into my Mastermind Alliance.

Cheers ;)

I Can't Stop Crying Today

I can't stop crying today
My world walked out the door
With her she took my heart
For I will love no more

The hours passed like seconds
When our two hearts were one
The seconds passed like hours
After she said that she was done

She was going to love me forever
At least that is what she said
Her heart belonged to someone else
That is what her letter read

I no longer live in color
My world is black and white
I always wonder what she is doing
As I lie awake at night

I hope tomorrow is better
This is what I pray
But right now my heart is broken
I can't stop crying today

BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION (SUPER BELATED POST! :))

Sorry for the long awaited update. God knows how busy I am these days. My schedule is so packed that sometimes I don't even have the time to pick up phone calls and stuff.

Anyways today's post is a super delayed one. Nevertheless I still feel like blogging about it cos I felt really happy that day.

The day started with me woking up a little out of schedule. Yes I woke up a little late. Nevertheless I still managed to get all the stuff I needed to get. Hit the doorbell of Pammy's house. She was elated to see me and woah what a surprise I had for her. A birthday cake with two big candles on it and a bouquet of roses. Yeah I know the cake is small but the thought counts. Actually this year everything was pretty rush but I luckily Lady Luck's on my side. HAPPY HAPPY 20th BIRTHDAY!


After the morning surprise, we went to Bedok to have a hearty breakfast. Lol as long as you put as two together, you will definitely get lots of food. We ate curry chicken noodles and duck rice. The weather seems a little threatening though and I was worried about my plans in East Coast. Once again Lady Luck was on my side and the skies cleared after we finished breakfast. Took a bus over to East Coast park and cycled till the sun set :)

Unfortunately as we were cycling halfway, Pammy claimed that she lost her bus pass. It was quite a major mayhem. We rushed all the way back only to find her card in the locker. Lol... You are so damn cute. I told you it's in the locker already don't believe lol. Took some pics of the sunset there on the way :)



After showering, we took a cab down to Popeye at Sg Flyer for dinner. Popeye totally owns KFC man.... And that Strawberry jam. Yum yum!

After the meal, of course it was time for a Sg Flyer ride. She was like so surprised when I showed her the tickets. Lol. Of course everything is planned ok! Ah Ha!


Sg flyer ride is damn romantic at night. Being at the top of Singapore was exhilarating. I want to thank those people that put this fantastic idea into this brilliant head of mine. Being at the highest point of Singapore with your special one is definitely one of the best things in life. The silence at the top, just you and your loved one alone, without any interference from anyone else in the world, is priceless.

Just before we reached the highest point of the ride, I gave her bdae present to her. It was just what she always wanted. Many thanks to Chris and Jov. You guys made it possible. Lol yeah she loved the bikini :)


After the ride was over (I wished it never end, 30 mins seems so fast), we went down to the trail just below the Flyer. All I can say is I always have a good time with her and she always makes things seem special. That's something she can do and other gals can't. Though time was short, I'm glad we made every moment count. Thanks Pammy ;)

Went out with Pammy again the next day to do some shopping for her chalet. Haha taught her all the ABCs of barbecue and stuff. We had a hard time picking the cake for her bdae celebration in the chalet and we actually bought some cakes to try. I think it was crazy haha! Luckily we didn't have to try all the cakes. In the end I decided we should buy the Choc Banana cake and it turned out great! Yeah see great judgement haha! By the time we finished all the shopping it was already 10. We then went to some chinese restaurant to eat. I thought they served great Siew Mai but I was wrong haha. Their pork rib oso suck. The only thing that was nice was the Eel Porridge. Haha but nevertheless, I'm still glad that we had a simple dinner together.

Lastly, I wanna thank Chris and Jov. You guys are the best lol. Thanks for sweating your asses out and walking with me to and fro to find the ideal bdae present. And thanks for all your comments and suggestions, and for saving my pocket as well. Haha I treat you all meal as promised already arh so next time must help me more lol.

(My two helpers haha :))

And of course thank you Pammy, without you, nothing is possible.

Have so much more to say and blog about. Have not blogged about my TEP mates (great people :)). Gonna post about them on my next post. As for now, I'll just sign off with:

Quando Quando Quando

I think many get the terms of romance, attraction and love very wrong.

For most cases, attraction takes place first, followed by love or romance.

Funny how people around me are all skipping phases and failing miserably.

Ok don't call be a bastard for not helping. I know I know, everytime you guys ask me, I don't answer. Since I'm in a good mood today cos I'm meeting Kitten tommorow, I'll give you an answer to your so called ultimate question. Ready?

The question is: "What attracts a woman?"

The answer is: Listen to Sara Bareilles's "Love Song"

The thing is, it doesn't make sense to skip phases. If you display expressions of affection before attraction, you scare the hell out of a woman. Most guys don't realise that. Can you imagine that? Put yourself in the shoes of the woman. This guy whom you don't even know well says he likes you and start going all over you.

Haha funny when you look it that way eh?

I feel evil now so I will analyze another one which I heard ever so long ago. "I will buy you chocolate and flowers. Will you go out with me?"

This one is an example my friend got from some random guy. Can't even remember his name.

I think the real thing he is actually telling my friend is:

"I think I'm not attractive or worthy enough to get your attention or go out with you. So I must buy you things to get your attention, in the hope of covering up the fact of how inconfident I am of myself, to go out with you my Goddess."

Pure bullshit.

I know at this point alot of my friends would start to bring out past examples from their relationships that this actually worked. But they missed out a very very important point.

It only worked because both the woman and the man were already attracted to one another. Any signs of affection or specialty would be given the green light as long as they are not too overly extravagant about it.

To do special things for another person who is not attracted to you, and you are doing it because you like that person is, in my opinion, is wrong.

It's like you offering your best self for a motive.

I think the best way is to be yourself. If you offer your best self, make it sincere and not because you want something out of it. If you do, most likely your gift will be appreciated.

Heh heh! Hope this helps whomever who needs this. However, I ain't gonna do any further explanations. Still the same answer. Listen to "Love Song". Complain some more and I will not even speak about this issue anymore.

Almost everything is stated in that very song itself. I swear ;) For a moment you guys thought it would be easy eh? Gimme a break. Trade secrets *tsk tsk*

Time for personal life time.

Firstly I wanna declare a public apology to my ELO BROTHER - Mr. Jovian Chan because I missed 6 of his calls last saturday. We were suppose to go for lunch but I overslept because of Dungeon Sieging through the night. Sorry bro. Treat you lunch the next time round. ELOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope we don't get B-men job for TEP lol. It would be retribution if we are both in Inventory Management LOL!

Work is now an obsession. I work almost everyday. It's tiring but I've fun people working with me so it eases the load. However, I'm ain't gonna be a damn CCC ever again in the future.

I've decided to get that damn Iphone. I just can't resist it.

School is gonna start soon. TEP in school would be like going home. School is like my second home, where all my old time buddies are and where the grass is really greener. Gotta work harder for next sem so that I secure my spot in SMU. Heh heh ;)

Chen Shufei just termed me as a mature friend. I think my buddies in school are so gonna laugh at that. Lol. Heh you got any probs you should just tell me. I mean like why keep it from me? Yes granted, you don't tell me I also know but at least must tell me right? Don't tell how to help you? Whatever la you lol next time better say. And take care, don't take things you don't want. Learn how to reject people and say no. Nothing to feel bad about. Got anything, me, Marcus and Midas will always support you ;) Sounds damn good right? Don't worry. Our support comes with the price of BUBBLETEAS!!! Better buy for us the next time round! PROTECTION FEE! MWAHAHA! :D

Meeting Kitten tomorrow. She has not replied my msg. Probably fallen asleep already. Have not thought of a program for tommorow's outing yet. Hope Disaster Movie came out already. I seriously need a good laugh.

Frank Sinatra

You know what's simply the best thing on Earth?

Well... It must be in a dimly lighted room, with candles burning slow and easy.

It's cuddling with your lover in bed, looking in her eyes, stroking her hair, gently putting your lips on hers, with Frank Sinatra playing in the background.

Or of course you could opt to lie in bed alone, still with Frank Sinatra in the background.

Totally awesome. Frank Sinatra's voice is just Woah! Total relaxation.

Well gonna listen to Fly Me To The Moon now by the very man himself :)

Pwnage Day

I got pwned today.

Serious. I just knew I got punked by my colleagues. I got a warning message a few days ago from Starhub and here's how it goes:

"This is a warning for you to do your job properly. Your performances are bring tracked all the time.

Thanks,
Starhub Team"

I was late for work that day and I thought I got in major trouble big time. I was also a little pissed because I treat my job seriously and geez it was only the third day of me being a CCC.

Apparently this message was crafted out by Marcus and gang. Wth. Hey you guys totally got me.

And it seems that the mastermind behind this operation is Shufei herself. Ok lol you guys got me! Seriously, I got pwned. Damn haha. But it was really funny.

Back at home, I got pwned too. If there was a Coolest Mum award, it would defintely go to my mum.

My Mum is not any regular housewife. She's my friend and yeah she behaves in alot of ways like me.

I got my wicked tongue from her.

Well thing is there was this fat asshole with his brother walking on the street. He sees my mum with my bro and he comes up to her and asks:

"Hey auntie. How come your son so black?"

That was fucking racist. Well bad luck for him, cos he met my Mum. Anyway my bro looks more chinese than me. I have no idea why he asked that. Crazy bastard.

My mum just gave him a smile and asked:

"How come your brother so thin and you so fat?"

And then she walked away.

Pwned.

Well I guess being a cool mum is cool afterall.

Crappy Policies

Today's work was crap, as usual. I'm used to the job cos it's easy but getting paid to take so little calls a day is a little demeaning. I'm a man who only want to get what I due deserve.

Seriously I think the company's customer policy sux big time. They better pray I don't work for their comepetitors next time. The way I see it, even though they are in a monopoly now, it is gonna collapse sooner or later. They are leaving their most important customer touch point open. The customer service center is not correlated closely to the other departments and escalations take forever to get back to.

The worse thing is, performance get measured in number of calls per minute and not the quality of the calls. Cummon! Which dumbass does that? The porno chatline only probably. Customers call in to get their problems solved. If we take that much calls a day, probably the quality of the calls are not there. When I find myself adhering to the call standards, I don't see the quality of my calls there. It's funny really. Having a customer call centre just for the customer to rant but not solve their problems effectively and efficiently. And their performance appraisal is a little screwed. I've seen other company's appraisals and they are so much better than my company's.

Well heck. I've said my piece to my superiors and if they don't listen then it's their problem. Haha ok alot of people is gonna bullshit me for this one. I'm a genius at this kinda stuff. The way they do business, it's gonna offend alot of customers. They are focusing on erecting high switching barriers for customers and not focused on retenting customers. That's why monopoly is dangerous. In my opinion, the Singapore Government should strike off their exclusitivity and get the other companies to compete with them.

Btw of course a genius like me have already come out with solutions to their problems. However with only $9 per hour pay, I don't feel obliged to feedback. Even if I do, they will not listen. Lol.

I really feel like blogging about what happened this wednesday. But I'm too tired. Gonna sleep now. Tommorrow then blog bout it.

Tomorrow exam results out. Can't wait.

And thanks Pammy, for all the fun ;)

6am to 12am

Today is kinda cool and bad.

Cool cos I got to see alot of the peeps at work again.

Bad cos I got f**king screwed by all the bizarre questions posted by those wackos on the phone. Actually they are still managable. And my cute colleague Miss Chen Shufei made me missed my date. All cos of a mistaken envelope -.-

Well it may be a good thing after all. I don't know what's going on already. Oops. Haha but hey, I still miss spending time with you. Perhaps we will go out tomorrow or something if I'm free.

Anyway met this cool guy called Gabriel on work. All guys who have the name Gabriel are cool :) Lol. Anyway yeah we kinda have alot of common interests so it was like what the chinese called "一见如故". We gotta go basketball together someday bro.

And yes I've checked. "天崖之别" is indeed in the Chinese dictionary. Looks like my Chinese is better than a certain someone after all :P Got new car rich arh!

Cool now I'm in a scandal with "Cherish Miie". Well the part about me liking ferocious and naughty girls are true but anything other than that are "probably" not factual(lol, i like the word probably). They probably take form due to the extra imaginative minds my colleagues have after rotting in office listening to too much retarded phone calls lol.

It's been a long time since I crafted something out with pen. Hardly have any inspiration these days. My mind is like a dry prune now and there is nothing I wanna fantasize more than sleeping on that soft bed of mine. Naturally, I can't draw any shit that way. But at least I found hope of getting a cheap but legit version of Photoshop from a colleague now. Woo hoo! When the pay check comes, so does Walcom drawing pad and PShop!

Miss hanging out with Kiat, Zx and Parti. My brother and dogs, we need to hit the hood some time again man. And damn Partz I gotta check out your army hairdo man! A few more months and I will miss the chance!

Went out yesterday with Jov and Jiaping and yeah it was dope shit. We had lots of fun. Thanks for satisfying my craving for duck rice. You guys are true buddies. Christy Lim you missed out on all the fun. Go out with guys don't care about us already huh! BOO HOO HOO! Lol ok ok just kidding, next time we will give you early notice. No PS-ing again!

Let me know of the plans this sunday. I'm only free after 2 or 5:30pm. C ya guys then.

Retarded People

I'm not really liable to discuss about my customers here. So one word. Some customers are really RETARDED.

WORK WORK!

Woah it's been a long time I've been here.
I miss the peeps in school. Haven seen them in a while. Jovy and Christy are gonna go for their kiddy ride jobs these weekend. Sorry I can't be there to be your first customers. Take good care of the kids!

This week was awesome cos I made lots of new friends in work. "Awesome" seems to be a permanent word in my vocab now. All cos of you Pammy ;)

I'm now a Customer Care Consultant. Alright! This is so the job man! High pay (yeah I'm pretty much a mercenary), joyful and fun peeps and cool equipment.

My hotline name is "Sexy Boy" by the way. Nah jus kidding. Lol we have people whose names are Sunflower seeds, Gypsies, and Normal. Like wth, but of course they are nicks as well.
These people are really an awesome bunch. Some how I wish we had more time for training (with $9 pay) to get to know each other better.

The guys from my workplace[from the back]: Alwin (the soccer dude with the car, thanks bro for the drive), Gary my team member, Sir Vignesh, Wei Hong the Animator (damn this guy jam. Cool stuff), Ismail (he's got a green bike and is a very friendly guy), Marcus (geez this dude can pull off a joke with a straight face, now that's good), Me of course (the cool dude. Duh?), and Alex (the English jacket man)

Hey we men are very filial to our Ah Ma (mother). Lol Anne's our trainer and we are her children :)

The All-girls team. Lol they are a noisy and fun bunch. Don't really know some of them well but yeah will get to.

The Boys and Girls ;)

Awesome people eh?

Anyway, customers we have here can be really awful and cute. I have aunties crying for their dramas and screaming for them. I guess TV really makes the world go round though I personally don't believe in it.

Have OT tomorrow. Gonna wake up early for my run tomorrow and meet Shu Fei and Gary early. But for now, back to Dungeon Sieging!

Rainy Day

The word of the day : "Rain"

Yeah damn rain spoiled all my plans. If this goes on I'm gonna have to invite the Christmas Carol crew outside my door singing "Rain rain go away, come again another day"

Which reminds me, Chris is going to suntan with her "Nonsense" crew today. I doubt any suntanning will ever happen. The only kind of tan anyone can get today is a drenched one. But I hope she does have fun lol.

Gonna have my run now at that haunted place. Hey it gives more adrennaline! Good for adventure on a boring and wet day.

It's Summer Time!

It's summer holidays! Woo hoo! Wait it's summer all year round but that's the fun!

Time for all the REAL programmes to start kicking in :)

To the busybody Singaporean who can't take an f word on tv: Yo give the lady a break? Jade Seah is new and she didn't mean it. It's not as if you never used the word before. Even if you really don't, people make mistakes so just let it rest.

I don't know what you were doing cos I think u were the only one in Singapore who noticed it.
It's either you watching the Olympics highlights in Dolby Surround, or there is something really wrong with you.

I mean come on? Who watches the highlights and then notice such stuff? Instead of watching the intense epic battles between the athletes, you get all bitchy over a word. How shallow can you people be?

Injustice settled.

Gonna clear up my stuff now and perhaps plan my workout for tml. Laters ;)

GETAI!!!

Current music playing: 7th month Getai
Current mood: Ecstatic

Decided to copy this LJ template because I’m experiencing seriously LOL situation now.

Just when I thought the Olympics distraction could end, another one came along.

Hell yeah, I have a Hungry Ghost festival “Getai” near my place.

I literally can hear them roaring away now.

My mum gave me the WHAT face when she heard me singing along to some of the tunes.

Yeah I guess the WHAT is coming from you now too.

I can sing some of the songs like “如果我有一百万” & “榕树下”

Mum was like laughing out loud :)

Surprise surprise. Guess I’m a classical person too ;)

The most LMAO one was this song that just played. Me and my mum thought it was an Indian song.

After a while, I realized what it was.

It was “We are Singapore” in Hokkien version. WTF!?

Since when Getai was patriotic too? Lol

Learnt a lot from mum about how they organize getai and the various auctions they hold. Seems that my grandpaps was a fan of it because he always got the tickets. Wow the good old kampong days. Though I’ve never seen him before, I imagine he must have been such a lively man haha.

Just got news that Nastia Liukin tied with China's He for Gold medal for the Olympics but then because of some tie breaking system she became silver. Geez wth. She totally deserved a Gold. Poor Liukin :(

Well back to marketing now and “如果我有一百万" ;)

Retreat

3 more papers to go.

Easy easy easy.

Anyway Phelps you're the man. Sg ping pong gals ain't that bad too.

Come 22 Aug alot of things are gonna happen.

I've planned such a long list that even Santa will freak out if he looked at it.

I planned a retreat for myself.

Yeah that's right, a retreat. During this retreat I'll train myself physically, mentally and spiritually. After this holidays, I'll turn out a new man.

So excited for it already. Can't wait

And yeah Bryce, Nastia Liukin is hotter than that Heroes Cheerleader

I'll leave it as that.

Chao

The Olympics

Got distracted in the morning by the Olympics matches again.

Seriously this ain’t really a good time to host a sacred event like this cos I’m gonna have my exams soon?

This year’s gymnastics event totally pwned me.

Nope it wasn’t because all the gymnast girls are hot, though I must admit Team USA and Siberia (not sure) were hot.

What mesmerized me was something different.

Team USA had a really bad start because 3 out of 4 of four of them missed that the uneven bars while they are doing their uneven bars routine and the cause was their team being plagued by injuries.

They were really sad as they were hoping to nail the gold this year. They were the hot favourites and now this had to happen. One of them nearly cried. Everyone was sure then that they wouldn’t make it for preliminaries round 2.

But something incredible happened. Despite all the negative commentary and how insurmountable the odds were (their opponents: Japan, Britain and China purely owned the uneven bars), they didn’t give up. Instead they cheered each other on.

They displayed “The spirit of not giving up.”

They decided to give their all for the last event which is the balance beam.

Nastia Liukin's performance was extraordinary considering she may still be suffering from the after effects of injury.

Chellsie Memmel’s performance on the beam was mesmerizing. It was as if she was a little pixie dancing on the beam, with such grace. Her moves were gentle and subtle, smooth and light, like those of a fairy. That was when Team USA got up and they knew that this was their chance.

Chellsie Memmel's fairy performance

Shawn Johnson boosted their team’s performance by giving a performance full of power, with every move powerful but with grace. The elegance of a serious woman. She executed the beam performance perfectly and finished it with the legendary double back flip and landed perfectly. 16 year old current world champion totally pwned the crowd.

Wow. I mean seriously WOW!

Totally beautiful and perfect. For this two words to come out simultaneously of my mouth. Damn that's excellent.

And in the end, they made it.

Team USA athletes celebrating

These young athletes just never fail to amaze me. They make what seems humanly impossible possible. And most importantly, their focus and determination on the goal is absolutely admirable.

And not to mention all of Team USA’s and the other competitors are all around our age. Shawn Johnson, the current world champion is 16 years old. Beat that! Besides having hectic training schedules, they still do well in their studies and take time out for community work, family, pets and yes, they do have a Life.

Evidence: Team USA's gymnasts' profile: Geez man and all the time we say we don't have time for things we wanna do

This makes me think about what I can really do. Not that I’m gonna be a gymnast but I can really do much more if I push myself out of my comfort zone. If they can do it, so can I.

Anyway all hopes will be on Tao Li tomorrow. I hope she nails the first gold medal for Team Singapore. Rock on!

My eyes were totally glued to the screen for the legendary showdown between USA and China for basketball. Team USA ,with all those tomahawk and 360 dunks, had an advantage over China. Though being that, I must say Yao Ming put up a really good performance. USA is still the Dream Team I guess. What do you expect when you put King James, Carmelo Anthony, Kobe(my favourite player!) and Dwyane Wade in a single team huh? Yao Ming made a big entrance with a 1st 3 pointer shot but hey! We got Kobe man. I think he’s the only one who can shoot a 3 pointer while closing his eyes. Hey not kidding! Dude, It’s Kobe Bryant. I think he really nailed a basket while closing his eyes before >.<

Dwyane Wade nailing a high flying dunk

Michael Phelps, 7 more gold medals to go. I’ll be watching you.

Geez so much exciting competitions to watch. Unfortunately I don’t have the time and nor do I want to take Mark Richmond’s and Jade Seah’s (ooh lala) jobs of being the Olympics highlights hosts.

I’m such a sports fanatic ;) This is so gonna cause me my grades if I continue like this -.-

Gonna sleep now and catch Tao Li’s competition tomorrow. After which I will meet Jovian for revision tomorrow.

It's difficult to be in a relationship.

I don't mean BGR. I mean relationships like family and friends.

Yesterday the twins quarreled. And seriously both are important people to me. I hate to do the taking sides thing. So I'm not gonna take sides. All I'm gonna say is it's a misunderstanding, both of you have your reasons, I empathised with both of you, so just talk to each other about it, understand, and then apologise sincerely.

I mean seriously, it all originated from something that was not even of substantial importance at first, it then grew and then boom.

Look at it from the other person's shoes then try to understand. And to one of the twins: The other twin will not know what the hell you're thinking about unless you tell her. Cheer up both of you k? Kiss and make peace or something soon.

As for family, for the record, my sister isn't staying with me. She's staying with some friend cos she has "issues" with my parents. But bloody hell can't she pick up my phone calls?

My Mum of course is still the best in the world :) No doubt about that.

Relationships are really hard to maintain. Even for BGR (don't worry I'm still single). People often forget to express and forget to listen. It's a normal thing. It just comes with being closer. After so much time together, people often expect others to know them and themselves to know alot about the other person.

But this is often not the case. Very often you see a girl being angry at her bf when he forgets she doesn't take coffee or chocolates. It makes sense that she's angry if she told the guy before. But sometimes she also gets angry when he doesn't know that she doesn't like to wear white tees when she has not even told him before. And the reason would be: "Hey we've been together for so long. You should know :("

It's true that people who spend alot of time together get a little telepathic. Me, my ex could do that to each other. But don't take it for granted. A bond with another person requires you to go out of your way to understand a person. If we were that simple to understand, then I must say you are as simple as a rock.

Even a rock contains metamorphic, igneous material, have different gradients and minerals, different colours and structure, different compression pressure and different extremophiles habitating it. If you don't know what I'm talking about, GOOD, cos this shows a rock ain't that simple too.

Understanding a person requires more than a lifetime. Don't expect others to understand you after being together for a few years. Every person is a unique and complex individual. And that's what friendship takes. Spending time to know each other and having fun with each other.

The beauty in a bond lies in not understanding each other completely, it lies in always taking time and constantly understanding an individual. It takes a lifetime. That's what friends are for.

Done with the explanation. Phew...

Anyway Jap word for the day: つながり (Tsunagari) [I know damn random but just feel like doing this.]

Meaning: Bonds, Relationships

Remember: Bonds require effort to maintain. Don't give up!

To my friends: I smile and laugh everyday in school, cos you guys are with me ;)

Fall For You

New skin, new song.

What can I say?

A girl like you is impossible to find.

Lol. Dom get back to the books! NOW!

A tired Hero never stops

Some Heroes are born, some are made.

Every hero will be tested and called to greatness in time to come.

Just 8 days more, a test that I must endure. It’s tough but no pressure. Can’t wait till the battle is here.

Till then let’s fight like everyday is the last day.

Tomorrow I gotta print my notes out from my laptop. All these long hours of staring at the screen has made my eyes really pain and red. Can't let it bring me down now.

Today was a good day. Jap test was easy but got owned for the listening compre because I didn't know we could only click it two times.

EFMA was great. 31.5 out of 35 ain't that bad. It's good to know that Ive already passed the EFMA exam overall but of course I'm not settling for that.

Better get back to Business Law now.

Signing Off
Dom

Lol made Christy and Jovian wait for four hours (record breaking yeah I know). So sorry, jap homework was really tough. Went to Carl’s Junior to have dinner! Hey it’s my first time at Carl’s Junior and the burgers were great!

Had so much fun there and for some reason me and Jovian were crazy. I must say Thursday is an all out onslaught of laughter.
