Movies Galore!!!

2 movies in a week... I don't think I've ever done tt... Okay, so maybe I'\ve done it in the comfort of my house or friend's house... But what I'm saying is, it's the 1st time tt I've been to the cinemas to watch the movie, twice within a week... I'm contributing way too much to the economy...

Anyway, I went to watch [The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian] today with [SM] frankly, the movie was just average... There wasn't much during the beginning and it sort of became a little tedious to watch as most of the scenes then was all dark and gloomy... It's only towards the ending, when [Peter] was fighting [Miraz] - the evil uncle of [Prince Caspian] who usurped the throne - tt it became more exciting... The 1-on-1 battle was thrilling, I admit... Yet the most fascinating part was when [Lucy] finally found [Aslan]... The moving trees tt joined the war thereafter was cool, and so was the summoning of the water to destroy the bridge... These 2 events caused the tables to turn in the favour of the [Narians] as well as to help end the war, which goes to prove tt the forces of nature can't be trifled with... LOL...

Of course, if I were really to compare this with [Accuracy Of Death] which I've watch on [Wed], I'll definitely give my vote to [Accuracy Of Death]... I do find tt it's a better movie, probably because there's a little bit of comedy and it's abt life, death and hunky-looking death gods... Plus the humour in the movie really got everyone cracking up in laughter... Worth watching!!!

A lot more happened when I went to watch these 2 movies, as well as from the time I last did some blogging... However, tt's it for this entry... I'm off to watch the [Jap] version of [Hana Kimi] and continuing my migration back to [Blogger.com]...

Transferring entries from [Xanga] back here is no mean feat... *Swipe sweat from forehead*

My 2 Cents Worth Of Thoughts... (Imported From Xanga)

Rather than moan in every entry abt my woes from parents, work, lack of a boyfriend, etc, I've decided to talk abt what's happening around the world for a change... Am I doing this so as not to be so self-centered and himbotic??? *Laughs* Only I myself will know the truth... Provided if I actually face reality head on... Haha...

Anyway, let me jump on the bandwagon of [Asia]'s twin disaster... I wonder if [Mother Nature] hates this part of the world so much for it to bring so much death and destruction within such a short time... 1st there's [Cyclone Nagris], which destroyed much of [Myammar]... And the ruling junta isn't helping to reduce the deaths in their own country by refusing to allow foreign aid... If they're trying to prove tt they're able to handle this all by themself, this is like so not the time as lives are @ stake here... They should put down their pride and ego and accept the help tt's being offered with open arms... @ times like this, no country is going to mock you for being unable to handle this single-handedly... *Sigh*

It's time tt [Myammar] actually get this into their heads... Tt no country stands alone in this globalised world... We're all connected to one another whether we like it or not, so we just have to deal... By refusing help, you're worsening whatever diplomatic ties you have with the rest of the world, which will do the country no good... Seriously, what's the point of having so much power, and yet not using it to do good, by allowing your ppl to get a better life??? Perhaps the juntas are demons in disguise, demons who feeds off pain and suffering...

Or maybe I'm just, like the other countries to some extent, concerned tt [Myammar] is unable to increase the supply of rice in time to stop the maddeening inflation of it's price...

Then there's the 7.8 magnitude quake in [Sichuan] which killed tens of thousands of ppl... When I saw those articles of the devastation, I'm also horrified @ the emotions tt're so visibly etched on the survivors and their family members... There're a lot of grief, it's heartrending... To think tt so many ppl died in just over a span of 3 weeks, it's like there's a mass genocide or something... The only comfort in this is tt @ least [China] is allowing the other countries to lead a helping hand...

If you think abt this, this could be [Gaia]'s way of punishing us for the harm we've done to her... By disrupting our economic growth in an attempt to push us back in our advancement as a race, so tt she can recover from the many wounds we've inflicted on her... Don't protest... There's a research tt proved tt there's a relation b/w the degradation of the enviornment and us, humans (why am I not surprised @ this finding)... Polar bears are becoming cannablistic, plants are blooming earlier, birds are migrating earlier, penguins dying and rising sea lv due to melting glaciers... They're all a result of what we've done in our pursuit to grow...

*Ponders* Maybe the end of the world as we know it isn't the death of the human race, but an event tt will reduce our numbers considerably and bring our technological progess back to square 1... Perhaps it's time the world not develop so fast and start to think abt sustainable development seriously... Otherwise, we'll enter a bettle with an entity where the odds are never in our favour... A battle the human race will never be capable of winning...

Hypothesis... (Imported From Xanga)

I realised tt I have a knacked for making up ridiculous hypothesizes... A week ago, I deduced tt NTU and NUS are sending out their acceptance letters by alphabetical order... Starting from 'Z'... This is deduced after studying the trend... I mean, if you consider the surnames of the ppl who got tt letter - [YQ], [SH], [XP] - and some of my colleagues with surnames starting with 'N' and 'S', and those who have yet to receive the letters - [Cass], [JY] and I - plus colleagues with family names of 'K', it all click...

LOL... Yes, it's 90% crap, but don't shot it down yet... Wait till I get the acceptance or rejection letter 1st before disproving this hypothesis of mine... I need hope, even false hope... Wait, come to think of it... I don't really need much hope cause I haven't actually freak out over this matter yet... Which is good cause whether you worry your brains out or not, it's not gonna affect when the letter will reach you... So why choose the path which will cause you to lose sleep and age - esp. me, when I'm gonna be 20 in a couple more days???

Anyway, over this past few days, I've come up with yet another hypothesis which I think rank higher on the crap-o-scale as compared to the earlier one which I've mentioned... I reckon tt there's a correlation b/w the increasing global temp and a person's insanity and their ability to actually think straight... Look @ what's happening around the world...

We have @ the top, the [House Of Horror] in [Austria]...Rather than avoiding tt house like a plague, ppl have been flocking there in an attempt to look @ the prison where [Elizabeth] was trapped w/o sunlight for 24 yrs and been subjected to psychological trauma caused by her insane dad... Then there's also the case in the [Middle East] I think, where a father butchered his daughter who fell in love with some Brit soldier... And the infanticide in [Germany], where 2 grown-up children found the corpse of 3 infants in the freezer while looking for pizza... Apparently, the murderer's the mother... *Gasp*

Oh and the following 2 came out in the papers yesterday and they're my personal fav... A 42 yr old male chef was jailed for not disclosing the fact tt he has HIV when he got a 16 yr old boy to perform an indecent act on him while both of them are in a toilet cubicle at some shopping centre... Plus there's a [Indonesian] maid, 42 yrs old, who had sex with the employer's 15 yr old son after she caught him watch Internet porn...

Now you see how twisted some ppl with the slow increasing of global temp, oil price, rice price, electricity price and everything in general... Which concludes tt as the end of the world approaches, we won't die because of some natural disaster or get wiped out instantly by some meteor colliding with [Earth] or by the explosion and/or dying of the sun.. We'll mostly go mad and cause our own demise...

Oh, and then there's a comment on the [Forums] in the papers yesterday which makes me want to roll my eyes so hard tt it'll pop out.... A lady was writing to the papers commenting tt local unis should guarantee every student who meets the basic requirements a place in the uni... How impractical is tt?! Imagine if everyone's offered a place in the 3 local uni, and all choose 1 particular course, do you think it's possible tt tt faculty can accommodate everyone??? Or if everyone choose 1 particular uni, do you think tt uni can accept everyone as well??? Obviously the benchmark have to be raised over time, selection for the better ones to enter have to be made... After all, [Darwin]'s law of survival of the fittest isn't there for nth... Sheesh!!!

I'm off indulge in my alternate reality... Ta-ta~...

Yet Another Mundane Entry... (Imported From Xanga)

As I type this entry, the fact tt my blog is boring beyond imagination is getting more irrefutable by the characters tt is appearing in this entry...

So how do I actually spice up future entries??? Maybe if I actually give some constructive comments on the current affairs, tt could work...Like my take on the real threat of inflation tt's affecting [Singapore] due to the rise in price of oil, rice and everything else...

Or my opinion of the evil tt's running loose on this world... Like tt of the father who locked up his daughter in his own basement for 24 yrs and fathered god-knows-how-many children with her... Tt's incest to the lowest level... Tt father ought to be locked up in a cellar, deprived from sunlight for the rest of his life... Gee... I can't believe some men actually like bedding their own daughters... I really think tt's disgusting... If your wife doesn't wanna do the whole mating-dance thingy, find a pro or something... It's totally yucky to envision the father and daughter... *Shivers* It's a wonder tt their offspring's not mentally retarded or something...

Then there's another article of a Israeli man butchering his daughter up just because his daughter fell in love with a Brit soldier... This is totally outrageous... If you disapprove of the relationship, then tell the daughter 1st... If she refuse to break up, then learn to accept it you narrow-minded pig... Chopping up your own flesh and blood totally blew the scale of insanity... There's no room for regret cause the daughter is already dead... Therefore, if you're reall, reallyy against the relationship, disown her...

Will this spice up my entries??? Or should I get a boyfriend and talk all abt our honeymoon phase??? On second thought, this is a bad idea as (1) I don't think I'll get attached anything in the near future and (2) if I broke up with said boyfriend, it's gonna bring bad memories when I read through those entries again... But should I let the latter stop me from finding one??? Guess not...

Anyway, I just realised tt I'm not only physically weak, but mentally weak as well (which is not surprising to some)... I recently decided to totally give up on He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Mentioned as I've accepted the fact tt it's totally a waste of my time and effort to invest anything in him (another fact which I should've accepted long, long time ago)... Yet when He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Mentioned unexpectedly appeared right in front of me yesterday, I almost lost tt resolve I had and gave in to my hormones... Craptastic...

I should just not thing abt tt anymore and let fate decide who should be Mr. Right... In the meantime, I have to maintain whatever social life tt I have, play [Cabal Online] and try to write out tmy own instructions on solving the [Rubik's Cube]... Yes, I managed to solve tt cube by following the [Toy R Us] guide, just by reading alone, w/o any one guiding me... *Proud look*

Before I sign off, here's some SS which I took while I was playing [Cabal Online], the latest craze after [MS]...

I'm doing the dance with my clothes on...

And w/o my clothes on... I didn't know I have such a good body!!! =P

Now I know why Martialsuits are for [Wizards] and [Bladers] only... I feel so nude in this!!!

My actual armours and equipments...

Doing some lovely pose for the camera... Does this counts as cam whoring??? *Ponders* o_O

Oh look!!! Another hunk's beside me... Pity tt's not real and it's only an NPC... =S

Gang Outing!!! (Imported From Xanga)

Can't remember when was the last time [The Gang] actually hang out together with almost 100% attendance... It's really nice to be able to all meet up and crap like there's no tml... LOL...

We went to [Suki Sushi] @ [Cineleisure] this time... With us around, I have a feeling tt their profits for this mth will be significantly lower as compared to previous mths... Not just because of the inflation due to the rising oil, flour, rice prices etc... But because of us as well... For we, a group of 9, ate a total of 130+ plates of food... 'Nuff said...

I so totally like MJ scarf!!! Perhaps I can listen to [SH]'s idea... Simply cut it from some curtains... Tt way, the only cost of making the scarf is the scissors... LOL... The wind effect in the 1st and last photo here is faked by [SH]...

The destruction of [Suki Sushi] by the fantastic 5 - [YH], [SH], [Cass], [YQ], [MJ]...

The only thing tt's left are the neoprints... I can't wait to get my paws on them!!! Gaaa!!!

He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Mentioned... (Imported From Xanga)

It's all in the determination...

I've decided not to touch the com on any other days except Fridays and weekends, just like the past, when I'm still studying... And I've done it... No matter how itchy my fingers are, I've managed to restrain the impluse to turn on the switch and press the 'Power On' button... To myself, it's good to know tt there's still some semblance of control there for me, unlike those game addicts tt couldn't stop playing their games...

Good job in not playing [Cabal Online] for 4 days straight!!! *Pat on the shoulders*

Haha... I should get more credit as I'm still holding back tt gaming urge to do some blogging... [MJ] is right, excessive gaming will destroy the whatever social circle tt I have... Not tt the circle is very big or anything, but it's tough to back to my old self, the social-less, lonely guy tt everyone shuns... I refuse to go back to tt kinda life... Having those 'hi-bye' friends is better than having no friends @ all (kinda obvious, isn't it)...

Keeping true to my words once again, I did watched [Eternal Summer] during the weekends... I've admitted tt I don't really understand the movie... But what struck my raw nerves is the friendship b/w [Johnathan] and [Shane]... I envy their friendship, one tt's able to last for so long... Haha... In a sense, I longed for such similiar relationship as well cause I think tt it's really nice to have someone who's always there when you need him... *Sigh*

On a side note, I think I had a relapse of lusting over guys again... Must be the sudden switch back to reality tt's causing this... Anyway, I was doing my morning run as usual in camp and there's this fit guy who took off his shirt as he was running pass me... I almost forgot to breath as I saw his back view, which is bad enough... Thank goodness he didn't run in the opposite direction or I would've a heart attack there and then... *Nose bleed*

2 mths... Tt's how long I've tried asking he-who-must-not-be-mentioned out and every reply tt I received was a rejection... Every week, the reason provided was either he's busy in camp, have some committments, etc... What's more irritating is tt if the plan was sent too early, he can't commit... Which is illogical as the whole point of asking him in advance is to secure a booking 1st... If it's work, I can understand... But if the reason is tt you've agreed to attend some Tom, Dick or Harry's function when I've 1 st, then tt's rubbish as it defeats the initial purpose of advanced booking, which means rejected any other engagements on tt same day...

My inferior self is nagging tt this display of rejection blatanly means tt he's avoiding me @ all cost... A theory [SH] is all too happy to support... I'm trying to accept tt but the moment he replied my e-mail which I've sent to him @ work totally throw all senses and resolve tt I have out of the window...How much more of an idiot can I get???

Oh well... Same old problem, same old complains... Not gonna think abt it anymore... Off to watch [Neo Angelique Abyss], an anime which has lots of hot males... Gyaa!!!

Dusting Cobwebs... (Imported From Xanga)

Okay... I admit tt I've been negelecting my blog, in fact, the entire world wide web, for the last 3 weeks due to [Cabal Online]... Come to think of it... This madness to play the game is far more severe as compared to the craze over [MapleStory]... As to what caused this serious addiction, I have to admit... It's probably due to my need to escape from reality... Like what [SM] said on the phone yesterday, [Cabal Online] is like my [Subutex] to curb my man-crazy instinct... Tt analogy is by far, the best and most accurate in describing what's happening in my life...

The urge to indulge in more fantasy is overwhelming... Yet I'm still able to withstand it and attempt to blog as I'm in the midst of DL-ing [Eternal Summer]... There you go, the answer to why I'm not playing... The need to look @ some really good-looking males doing a [Broke Back Mountain] is really too strong to resist... After all, I've been watching too episodes of [D. Greyman] and ever since I watched the 1st episode of [Neo Angelique Abyss], tt's the last straw... I couldn't get anymore pathetic by lusting over some anime characters, so I decided to quench tt caged up lust by watching some romance movie abt 2 guys... I just hope tt I don't shed any tears...

Hmmm... The movie's done DL-ing... 'Nuff said...

Another Gaming Phase Has Begun... (Imported From Xanga)

Yesterday, it was another get together with [YH] @ [Suki Sushi]... [Bec] couldn't make it @ the last min and so did [SL]... Oh, tt mere thought really made tt anger flare up once more... Not @ him as he's also a victim here... Who I'm mad with to be exact, is tt doofus who escaped from a certain detention centre, causing [SL] to be activated @ the last min to help hunt for said doofus @ [Pasir Ris]... But I simply don't care... It's been 1 mth and I'm positive tt Mr. Doofus here is long dead, probalby from illness, or from eating the wrong fruits, or from being poisoned from some snakes, spiders, etc.... Govt conspiracy or not, I'd say tt we're using our precious human rescource in the wrong way... We shouldn't be looking for a living person... We should be looking for a decomposing corpse...

Yes, I'm throwing a hissy tantrum, I'll admit... Who wouldn't when you've attempted to date a particular person, and he's always unable to make it for 4 weeks in a row??? I reckon this is fate's way of hinting tt I should give it up already... But I refuse to back down... Not till another guy sweep me of my feet...

I'm scary...

Nonetheless, it's nice to have a meal with [YH] and chat abt all things [Cabal]... Yes... Like the [MS] phase, I'm now totally into [Cabal]... I mean, unlike [MS], there're quests for you to do @ almost every lv... So players won't be reduced to boring training to grow... Compile tt with superb graphics, who wouldn't be addicted??? If non-hardcore ppl [YH] and [Cass] could be hooked onto the game, you think I'll be able to resist??? LOL...

I'm off to watch some [D.Greyman] before entering the world of [Cabal] once more... Heke...

Retail Therapy vs Cabal Therapy... (Imported From Xanga)

I attempted to expand my collection of clothes yesterday... With family in tow, we headed to [West Mall] to patronise the [V.I.P] shop... The clothes there are all really trendy and I liked their designs... After abt 30 mins of trying, I've bought 2 tops... I'm not gonna desribe them there as I'\ve absolutely no idea how to... Guess some of you will only find out when I wear 1 of the tops to town next week... *Winks*

I tried the bermudas there, but they're kinda short, meaning tt the end of the berms only reached to the top of my knees... Don't attempt to visualise the image as tt will generate much laughter... Which explains why I usually wear 3/4 pants or cargo pants... Oh, the woes of having long legs and being tall... *Innocent whistle*

I have to admit though, the berms are really nice... If only they have my wast size and are slightly longer, it would've been perfect!!! Undaunted by tt, we headed all the way to [Far East] to further my search... In the end, I did managed to get my desired berms of acceptable length... You know, those with strings all over the place type... LOL... My kinda bottom... Heke... ^_^

Totaly cost of this shopping spree??? Approximately $100, give or take...

Now this is what I call retail therapy... Which to some extent, is rather effective only @ the beginning when you're full of energy to hunt for your desires... I realised tt the effectiveness is inversely proportional to the time spent shopping as when energy lv decreases, I'll feel the need to call it quits, rendering such therapy ineffective for myself...

The bottom line??? Game therapy is still the most effective... @ least it really takes you out of this world, providing a temp realm for you to escape to and unwind... LOL... I just have to keep myself deluded to survive... How sad is tt?!

'Nuff said... I shall continue with my [D.Greyman] and [Cabal Online]... Tata~...

Website Recommendations... (Imported From Xanga)

It's strange for me not to do my weekly post on this blog, not tt many ppl will actually care... It's just a habit, really... Like the need to drink milo every morning or something similar... If I don't do a blog post, I kinda feel a little uneasy, hence the need to blog abt something, anything, however nonsensical it might be...

This time though, I'm not gonna rave abt me lacking in love or those thing tt I keep whining abt in those past few posts of mine... Yes... I do notice tt I'm a boring kinda person tt harps abt the same thing over and over again... Guess it can't be helped la... I simply cannot forget abt him, no matter how many times I try to psycho myself into thinking otherwise... Oops... I just whined abt the old topics once again... LOL...

Anyway, this entry will be really short as I'm recommending webbies... Not blabbering abt my dull working life... Hey, I can't possibly bitch abt those office politics every post, right??? It'll get downright boring in no time... So let me get to the point and present to you some website of questionable origins - X-rated webbies!!!

Okay, I'm obviously kidding... The webbies are from [talkingcock.com]... As a [Singaporean], you should've @ least heard abt it... I heard abt it quite some time back, so there's no reason non mountain tortoises like you ppl don't know anything abt it... Otherwise, just run head-first into a brick wall... LOL!!!

http://www.talkingcock.com/html/article.php?sid=2469
The 1st webbie I have here is kinda outdated, but I couldn't resist the urge to post it...

http://www.talkingcock.com/html/article.php?sid=2487
http://www.talkingcock.com/html/article.php?sid=2490
http://www.talkingcock.com/html/article.php?sid=2494
These 3 webbies are more up to date in current affairs *hint,hint*...

You simply have to visit all 3 webbies and have a good laugh... ^_^

Too Much Fantasy... (Imported From Xanga)

Phew!!! After tt long post of mine, I've officially ran out of creative juices to pen anything tt long in such a short break of a couple of hours... But I still have some juice left to showcase my imagination, however unimaginative it might be...

I've uncovered the mystery behing the escape of [Mas Selamat] - currently the most wanted fugitive tt's on the loose - from his detention centre... For him to escape tt high security place, I believe tt he must have dug an escape route from the toilet... Who knows??? Perhaps he has been consistently asking for toilet breaks every week since 2006 and has been digging ever since... LOL... Tt explanation's flaw, obviously... For starters, there's the matter off all those dirt tt he has to dispose of if he did indeed dig a hole... How did he then get rid of it??? Flush it down the toilet bowl??? What abt his escape route then??? How can such a hole be concealed w/o anyone noticing it??? Thus, the above reason is of the question...

The next reason I have is tt of evolution... For all you know, tt's a genetic anomaly within him tt grants him certain extraordinary powers such tt he can escape undetected... Powers like the ability to walk through walls, become invisible and levitation... Sure, it's all so [Heros] and [X-Men]... But those shows must have some truth within them... Moreover, some ppl could really possess such powers and they're keeping mum abt it... Which make sense as no one in their right mind will boldly admit tt they have some powers tt mere humans don't have for fear of rejection... Think abt the [Salem] witch hunt... Nuff' said... Oh, and the papers also reported tt he has a limp... Which makes my theory tt he has special abilities all the more convincing...

Obviously, if he has such abilities, the military alone wouldn't be enough to stop him... In my opinion, only magical or advanced technological intervention has to take place to create a barrier or force field surrounding [Singapore] in order to fully ensure tt [Mas] does not escape from this tiny red dot...

LOL!!! I've been watching and reading way too many supernatural stuff... -_-

A Me Tt's Lost... (Imported From Xanga)

Every human being on Earth should have a distinct character on his own, which made them different, stand out... Yet, do I have a personality of my own??? I've been thinking abt this of late and after tt self-reflection, I've come to conclude tt I don't really have a character tt's uniquely mine... Like in [Coffee Prince], whenever you mention [Encan], a particular person and character comes to mind... Okay, if tt's too extreme, then if I mention [Cass], automatically, the image of her as well as tt of an auntie, mixed specially with a pinch of slack-ness comes into view...

What can you say abt myself??? What image do I conjure up??? What type of person am I??? Which is the real me??? Is it the face which I usually wore to work or the face tt my friends usually sees me in or the one which I'm currently wearing @ home, whatever those faces are???

Fact is, the hypocrisy @ work has made me lose the me tt defines me... Or maybe I don't have a unique me to speak of in the 1st place... Sometimes I wish I'm [Honey-senpai] or [Mori-senpai] or certain real life ppl whom I've known for quite awhile... Maybe all these copying has made me lose my true self, causing me to lose my identity...

Am I suffering from an identity crisis??? Or perhaps the art of copying those characters is what defines me??? When will the answer to tt and more comes??? All in due time, I guess....

I'm very disappointed today cause my plan to go [ECP] for some cycling has been cancelled due mainly to the unforeseen change in weather and partly to [SL]'s inability to join us @ the last min... I was tempted to cancel the outing the moment he told me he couldn't make it... The part of me tt's gotten over him decided to carry on anyway as he's no VIP or equivalent... Guess Fate decided to play a prank on me by making it rain heavily in the morning, resulting in the remaining ppl losing their resolve to meet up @ the East as they feared tt the rain will last throughout the country and day, as predicted by the weather forecast...

I should've called and discussed with them before I headed out of the house upon knowing tt the rain's quite heavy... As to why I didn't, I could only say tt I banking on the rain easing up soon... As a result of tt, I made a wasted trip to [Clementi] and back...

I should've made use of this failed outing to catch [L: Change The World]... Darn it... Ended up watching [Ghost Rider] @ home instead till around lunch time, whereby water stopped falling from the sky and the skies was cloudy and cooling... Nice weather to cycle, if you asked me...

I've learnt from a long time ago tt you can never accurately predict the weather... Raining throughout the country and day??? Puh-leaze...

Am I mad with this??? Or am I mad with myself for not thinking ahead - of not consulting the rest before I head out of my house and ended up wasting money on useless trips???.What am I frustrated with???

Is This Life??? (Imported From Xanga)

Took half day from work to meet up with [SM] for [Jumper] yesterday... I don't know abt him, but I was epxecting more considering it's from the director tt produces [Mr & Mrs Smith]... The later has good action, comedy and nice eye candy in the form of [Brad Pit]... [Jumper] though, has some action, subtle comedy and a barely there ending... The main character was nice to look @, but tt's beside the point... The point I'm trying to make is, it fell below my expectations... *Sigh* I wonder if there'll be any good movie tt's actually worth those expensive ticket price tt we're paying...

Haha... It's definitely not related but if you think abt it... Movies used to be worth the ticket price in the past... Yet when inflation slowly sets in, it's as though there's an inverse relationship b/w the price of movie tickets and the quality of the movie... Coincidence or a real fact??? You decide... LOL...

Do hope tt [L: Change The World] will @ least be decent... *Cross fingers*

Met up with [Bec] & [XP] @ [BP Interchange] before taking bus no. 700 to [SunTec]... It's only when the bus turned into [Shenton Way] and pass [The Esplanade] tt we realised tt the bus isn't going to [SunTec]... Seems like a change in the position of the bus lane @ the interchange equates to a change in bus routes as well... Or maybe we took 700A instead... -_-"'

We alighted the moment we realised my horrible mistake and decided to cross the road to take another bus back to [SunTec], like what the driver advised... However, when we cross the road, we realised tt there's no freaking bus stop, simply a taxi stand!!! WTH!!! The driver decided to play us out!!!

So we milled abt the taxi stand to look @ the tiny map tt's on display... It's @ tt precise moment tt [XP] suddenly realised tt the road we crossed is a bloody 1 way road!!! *Laughed till severe stomach cramp sets in*

Managed to get a bus back to [SunTec] @ the end anyway to meet up with [JY] as well as to attend the talks tt [NTU]'s holding... The talks ain't much... I was mainly there to ask abt the admission matters as I'm a little clueless abt all those terms on 'Major', 'Minor', 'Electives'...

I did managed to clear my doubts before we headed to [My. Playground] for some shopping... I saw some really nice pants with complicated strings designs!!! I'm so gonna buy them the next time I'm @ [SunTec] again... Haha... Saw those cosplay and lolita shops which are darn interesting... [MJ] must come with us the next time so we can all indulge in the [Jap] sub-culture...

Headed to [Popcorn Pop] next to look @ some movie posters which are darn nice... I was so, so, so tempted to buy some... I didn't @ the end as it's a fact tt I don't have enough wall space to display those posters... Besides, I want to preserve them, not simply stick them on the wall w/o any protection whatsoever, which means tt I need frames... Which then means tt I have to go to [Ikea]... Lazy moi decided to stop thinking after this and not buy the poster... LOL...

Headed back to the talk just in time for the last [Biz/Accountancy] talk before bidding farewell to [Bec], leaving the 3 of us to walk to [Bugis Street] to window shop before parting with [JY], leaving both me and [XP] heading towards [West Mall] for [SubWay] dinner...

Overall experience for the day: Extensive travelling (read: money being injected back to the country's economy), lots of good, clean fun and tons of bimbotic moments... It's a pity tt I didn't catch the opportunity to ask more abt the [PS3] which I so badly wanted to buy... The consolation however, was the sight of the wireless controller in use... It's so cool!!! Gyyaaa~!!!

Conversation b/w [XP] & [LeiLa]...

Setting: Both were in the train heading towards [West Mall] and [LeiLa]'s hugging the pole while [XP]'s sitting down...

[LeiLa]: How I wish I'm hugging something tt radiates heat instead of a pole... *Grins*

[XP]: I can use a lighter and heat the pole... Tt way, it'll also radiate heat...

[LeiLa]: ... -_-"'

Visits, Visits, Visits!!! (Imported From Xanga)

They came to my house 1st... You can't miss their arrival... I swear their voices were audible even when they're @ the 1st floor... Really, I could hear their voices for 1 complete min before they actually materialise in front of my door... LOL... It's nice seeing them again though... ^_^

[MJ] and [Yuling] helped my sis and I through our license @ [Audition] and I couldn't help it... But [MJ] is really superb!!! I mean, the girl can get a total of 8 consecutive perfects in the midst of all the chaos happening around her... The eyes tt are watching as she played as well as [SH] playing [Spice Girls] music on my CD player should've made it nigh on impossible to concentrate... Yet [MJ] did it... She managed to pass my sis's license with scores tt are jaw-dropping...

[SH] is right... [MOE] should come out with a subject called [Audi]...

Decided to entertain [The Gang] with [The Reaping] and it is only then tt I found out of their ability to treat a horror movie like a comedy... Can you believe it??? They said [Ju-On] is funny as the characters in the movie should've just kicked the ghost when they saw her crawling down the stairs... *Stunned*

Headed to [SH] house next for lunch, not tt I needed to eat or anything... As long as there's a [PS2], cards or mahjong present, I'm very much capable of converting playing to food... Now tt's my special ability...

[YL] left shortly after tt as she needs to study... All the best to your exams!!! And so did [XP] as she has family commitments...

We headed to [Bec]'s house next and it's there tt we did some [Blackjack] while half-watching [Snakes On The Pllane]... I'm more concerned with my cards... You have no idea what I'm capable of when I'm distracted... Who knows??? I might just miscalculated my cards and draw out another card... Okay, tt's dumb... But hey, anything could happen when I'm distracted...

Oh, and I binged on the dried mangos tt were offered... Darn it... I've sinned again!!!

It's nice of [Bec]'s parents to give us a lift to [YH]'s house where we met up with [XP] and [SH] (he decided to skipped [Bec]'s to get his CD @ [Parkway Parade])... It's there tt we had out steamboat dinner before I decided to indulge in some mahjong action along with [Bec], [Dar] and [HY]... It's nice playing mahjong after so long and even though I didn't exactly win any money nor did I lose much, I had fun... Hell... If no cash was involved, I would've had as much fun as well... To me, the playing is all tt matters and my profit...

Obviously, this does not mean tt I'm willing to let others win like mad... I'm no [God Of Fortune]...

I manage to touch a [PSP] for the 1st time and it's a nice portable gaming console... The only drawback tt's causing me not to buy it is the fact tt it can only support [PSX] games and not [PS2]... A real bummer when I'm dying to play [FFX] and [FFX-2]... Oh well... I'll continue to wait for the time when I can get my hands on a [PS3] with those awesome wireless controllers...

Conversation b/w [XP] and [Dar]...

Dar: A PSP is good what... It's portable!!!

XP: If you lug your TV and PS2 around, it's also portable...

Unseen Wounds... (Imported From Xanga)

I didn't expect the walls tt I've erected to protect myself from the likes of [Jeffrey] and company to have holes... For this, I only have myself to blame as I've been hiding in my own cubby hole since [J1], so it's really obvious tt the walls need maintainence...

Apparently, I was in the same team as Collegue A for a project... I knew I was in a team but I didn't contribute a single effort for the project... So when Collegue A gave me a cert for it, I didn't brag or anything... I simply accepted the cert and continued working... It's only @ a later time of the day tt Collegue B told me what Collegue A complained abt to his other collegues, tt Collegue B and I didn't do anything yet we still get the same 'payouts' as the rest...

I admit tt I didn't contribute... But then again, how can I be expected to do something when no one told me to do anything??? Nor told me what the project was going to be abt??? To blatantly accuse me of free-loading and not speak the whole truth reminds me of how I was tormented by [Jeffrey] and company's half-truth...

Huh... To think tt after 5 yrs, history repeats itself... I was once again betrayed by someone whom I treat as a friend... How can I be so stupid as to actually be so trusting and not learn from my past mistakes???

It's thanks to guys like them tt made me wary of befriending guys... I do not want to be judged again... Neither do I want to be betrayed by those homophobes... Sheesh!!! What's wrong with having an alternate lifestyle?! In case you haven't notice, being gay does not mean tt I will like any and every guy tt I see... Even if I were to like a certain guy, only idiots would openly display their affection to said guy...

Sickening toads...

Speaking of liking a guy... It's only my wishful thinking @ work yet again to think tt I could've met a guy tt's interested in me and naive to believe tt I could find love via online dating... Stupid, stupid, stupid...

*Take deep breaths*

I let fate decide when it's time... It's pointless to rush such things when I'm not even emotionally ready... As to when I'll ever be ready, I reckon it'll be when I've finally become more outgoing and have lost interest in gaming, which I doubt will be happening anytime in the near future... Haha... I wonder when my [Cupid] is ever going to master his archery...

New Year!!! (Imported From Xanga)

It's day 2 of the [Lunar New Year] and for my family, it's a free and easy day as we usually complete the house visiting practice on the 1st day... Which translates to less red packets...

I'm not particularly concerned with getting red packets thingy... What I'm more concerned is the fact tt I don't really know my relatives @ all... I've absolutely zero idea on how they're all related to me and believe it or not, it's only just yesterday tt I found out tt I've nephews who are simply 2 yrs younger than me... Imagine tt, come the next [Lunar New Year] in 10 yrs time, ppl will be calling me 'Uncle Shawn'... Ugh... Okay, so maybe 10 yrs later the name suits me, but thinking abt it now... Goodness!!! I feel wrinkles forming already...

[YH], if you're reading this, stop laughing... *Growls*

Watched [Ah Long Pte Ltd] and I do think tt the movie deserves more than the 1/5 stars given by the papers... It's really hilarious and I do find one of [Fann Wong]'s sidekick in the movie rather pleasing to the eye... Hmmm... Like what [SH] says, it's all a matter of perspectives...

Shit, I can't stop thinking abt him... Have I fallen into yet another black-hole???

Instincts Guide You In The Right Direction... Mine Does The Reverse... (Imported From Xanga)

Not going to talk much abt past events... Have the feeling tt if I were to continously narrate the past, I'm going to have this boring thought when I read it in the future... I think tt's the whole point of blogs for my purpose... To log down events worth remembering...

[Monday]... Went to [Settlers'] @ [Clarke Quay] with my collegues as our unit's cohesion... Turns out tt I had a great time despite my initial thought tt it's going to be boring cause I'm not with [DeClique] or [The Gang]... Hmmm... This is proof tt I'm easily satisfied... Just give me games to keep me occupied for as long as you want...

Though I have to admit tt when I'm high on gaming, I tend to get a little carried away and not care abt anything else... Erps... Sounds so like I'm a drug addict or something... -_-"'

I used to think tt I'm not ready to be in a relationship... But how does one know when one's ready??? Friends keep telling me tt I would know when the time is right... Yet do I really know when it's ripe??? Mr. Emotions might be desparate to get some love, attention, and security and therefore scream tt the time to get hitched is now... Mr. Brain on the other hand, is scoffing @ the thought, retorting tt the time is not ripe yet as I don't have the time for a relationship admist my busy schedule of gaming, meeting friends and working...

The other factors tt're making me hestitate is tt this is after all, going to be my first time getting involve romatically with another person... I'm totally inexperience, so I'm totally clueless on how to react to certain situations... Then there's the issue of my 'potential date'... He's older and has dated more than once before... Plus his actions speak alot of what he expects from his relationships, which is totally of another universe from what I'm expecting...

*Screams in fustration*

Heck, despite my apprehension (I'm always getting all jittery whenever I think abt him), I think I'll just go ahead with my unreliable instincts and see where this path leads me... I just have to remember not to get too deep in the relationship... And learn how to manage my time better...

Being Young... (Imported From Xanga)

Before I met up with [XP] and [Dar], I was window shopping @ [West Mall] and I managed to rent the last book in the [Reily Jenson Guardian Series] - [Embraced By Darkness]... It's such a pity tt the series' over in 5 books... Anything, be it good or bad, will come to an end eventually, and everytime this happens, I feel a sense of emptiness, as a void has been created and I need it to be filled before I can feel complete again... Perhaps this is life...???

A new series is in the making and trust me to read it as well...

Saw [V.I.P], a shop selling mens' clothes... I like the selection of tops, shorts and cargo pants available... Moreover, the price of all those ranges b/w $29.90 to $39.90... Re-visiting is a must with my mum... Or maybe not... I have a feeling tt despite her objections, I will insist on buying them anyway... Haha...

I met up with them and we headed to [XP]'s house... To find tt her TV's spoilt in such a way tt it gives off weird noises with muffled sounds... Worse, we even thought tt her multi-tab malfunctioned as it couldn't dectect the 3rd player... Therefore, we decided to teleport over to [Dar]'s house so tt we can enjoy the games on his working TV tt doesn't gives off unrelated noises in his good lighting, air-conditioned room...

Only to discover tt the multi-tab in his possession faces the same problem... -_-"'

So we ended up taking turns to play [Bish Bashe]... Damn [Dar] to be capable of hearing beats, as both [XP] and I were in a disadvantage whenever we play the stage tt's similar to [Audi]'s [1,2 Party]... Damnation...

I tried [FFX-2] for a while and it's really challenging... In a sense, it's almost similar to [FFVII] as just like you need to train your materia to learn better skills, you have to train your dress spheres to gain more abilities... There's also accessories to be equipped to either boost your states and/or protect against negative status... The only diff here is tt you can equip 2 accessories and you can change your dress spheres to be various characters...

Hmmm... Sounds like I'm starting to get hooked on [FFX-2]... Which is gonna be bad cause I don't have a PS2 to play tt game... *Sigh* I don't have a choice but to satisfy my need by playing [FFVII]... Though I need to stop thinking in [FFVIII] for it's junctiong system and absense of MP...

Gah~... I'll stop here as I'm beginning to start thinking of men again... I need to indulge in games to distract myself... Off to [Audition] world... Sayonara~... *Winks* ;)

IMM... (Imported From Xanga)

I was totally shocked when [XP] dated me to [Fish & Co]... Considering tt [Fish & Co] is ex, her dating me out of the blue is really very surprising... Nevertheless, I agreed w/o much hesitation...

Met up with her @ [Jurong East] MRT Stn and we did some library walking before heading down to [IMM]... She ordered [Fried Calamari] while I ordered my usual [NY Fish & Chips] with the soup of the day - [Cream Of Mushroom]...

The soup's totally delicious... It isn't too creamy such tt after a few sips, you'll feel like puking... Even the serving is just nice, despite the initial thought tt it's too little... I don't know what's wrong with the restaurant today, but my [N Fish & Chips] is like extra large... The fish seems bigger than usual and there seems to be more fries as well... Of course, the moment tt was served, I instantly regretted not changing the fries to those rasin rice as I prefer the rice as it's not so heaty or oily... The calamari's scary as well because it's 1 big plate filled with lots of hugh fried calamaris...

In the end, I've to eat my meal slowly to finish the fish, which took us a total of like 1 hr... [XP] couldn't stand her big serving of squids as well so she decided to pack it home... Phew... I have this feeling tt this meal of mine is able to least me till tml's breakfast... LOL...

We walked around after tt to burn all those calories and to shop for gifts for those ppl whose b-day's getting closer... We had a hard time deciding what to buy as we have to decide whether we're going to buy something tt useful or something tt's for show only or something tt they like... The 3rd option's difficult to achieve when we don't know what they like so we've decided to buy something tt's useful and hopefully, appreciated... We managed to buy the presents after like 2 hrs of gruesome shopping... It's a pity tt I couldn't find some calender and [XP]'s fav [Bleach] poster got bought by someone else... And tt was like the last new copy... *Sigh* =(

It's good to be able to spend time with [XP]... Can't wait for next week when I'll be going over to her house once more... Tee-hee... And for 16 Feb as well for our [Gang] annual house visiting... Hmmm, I should get started with the countdowns... Heke... ^_^

---

I think my rational mind over-ruled my emotions... I don't think I'm actually ready to be in a relationship yet... Considering the truth tt I would rather meet up with friends than to stay @ home and to chat with my potential Mr. Right, it's evident tt to me, friends are still more impt... Besides, this could be mere infatuation and I'm going through some phase in life, so I would just let destiny guide me on my path to see where it leads me...

Mentality... (Imported From Xanga)

2 days ago, my parents made a move tt I wasn't anticipating... They actually watch [Coffee Prince] with me... They didn't watch the whole show, simply the 1st 15 mins or so of it and during tt time, my opinion of them was proven right...

They're homophobic...

When [Hanjie] kissed [Encan], my parents actually made a big hoo-ha abt it and kept exclaiming something along the lines of 'OMG, does he ([Hanjie]) even know tt [Encan] is a girl?! And he still kissed him?! Gay arh!!!'... I managed to ignore them and to concentrate on the show... Yet part of me was aware and affected by their comments, which goes to say tt in the alternate reality where I actually confessed, my parents would most probably have a fit, a heart attack and disown me... Thus, I've decided to choose the less of the 2 evils and would rather keep this from my family... Better to let them assume tt I'm still in the phase in which I've yet to search for love...

Haha... If you really do put more thought into this, my situation is a striking resemblance to those shows whereby the male lead falls for the girl who cross-dresses and end up being tormented by the realisation tt he's gay... Except tt in my case, I actually fall for a guy...

*Sigh* I think I really have to stop thinking abt all this... Which is hard as I don't have anything to pre-occupy my thoughts... I desperately need to get back to studying so tt I can totally avoid all this madness tt I'm creating... Or to indulge in some RPG to numb my desire...

I want a PS3 so tt I can play [FFX], [FFX-2], [FFXII] & [FFXIII]...

My flight instinct is stronger than the need to confront and trash things out...
