It's been a week since I last updated.
Loads to say about Alison sudden departure from DCD. We finally found out who is the god damn bastard behind the whole thing, but what else could we say ? Oh, we were now so uneasy working with the bastard.

I got my ipod nano from SY on Wed. Way fantastic =)

Ashyura treated me Swensens on Friday and we went digging in the Nike sale. Abit unglam but fun. It was 2 hours later after the dinner that I realised that I left my wallet in DCD =.= That was retard. I had to come back on Sat to retrieve it since no one was in the office already. That's perhaps one of the sickening thing about the 9 to 5 job. Thank god SY was willing to meet me to pass me the office key, couldn't imagine I have to owe bastard a favour.

Oh yeah! My ipoddie was born on 28 April 1.31am with all the songs I wanted. After adding all the possible info. Urgh tedious work. I was able to wake @ 11am to get my wallet which was really in the office. What a relief.

Meet up with the norms AI and we just spent a day @ Yishun. The cot at ML's hse was so cool!! I want!! Oh yeah, I finally got to eat the laksa again. What a sinful day it was. 200 pounds was a nice movie. Maybe I should do a plastic surgery too :p

World IP! 3 movies in a row was the ultimate as quoted from Mr. Charming. Yes indeed it was, especially when the 1st 2 were so hilarious and "action" pack, and what a good ending planned for us to sleep at the third movie, despite it being the movie that only the lucky us in Singapore could watched. If you don't know what I am talking about, maybe you would know on 27 April in which "The Good Shepherd" is due to screen.

"The Lazy Minzy" was a cute movie, with cute kids and a cute rabbit. The cute rabbit was made based on nano technology which was thought to be impossible at present, thus bringing the whole cinema laughter when an intel label was seen.

"The Wild Hogs" is one great show that sent many of us laughing till we get our cramps. 4/5 if not for the lame ending.

Had the long awaited dinner @ Jack's Place, even though there is this particular person I would love to kill, we had a fun time there. At least for me. Whether are we raiding the MLMs remains to be seen.

Gatherings are a good thing to strengthen the already exisiting relationships with people you know. It is one of the ways to pass time with perhaps more laughter and joy. That suxy feeling just came while I was on the train. Time. It seems so arbituary. It seems to be non existing. All the numeric indications of time, of age just give me creeps. How does one cell know when to die ? How does one know when to fade away. What would I be bringing when I am gone ? How do I know when I am exactly gone ? I didn't intend to put a damper on such a fantastic day, but I could not helped it.

Where are we and what are we going to do in 10 to 20years time?

Wait. Stop. Don't talk to me. I am trying to fix that sight in my memory. Paintball at OCC was the best. We the angels or rather the Ninjas were yakking on and on about shooting the BDK's head Russian style. All these would not have been possible without the Ninja Master. Lol.

There was so much preparation for this 2 hr event. Event clothes, SAF uniforms etc. It's like giving everything that we had. Those people scared us la.. warned us about major pelts and brusies, the stinging pain, potential blindness :S Which made me wore the hot as hell SAF uni. Urgh.

It turned out that only Eric was one of the best marksman, everyone was mostly pa jiao. Especially the girls ( no surprise here). The guys was shot in almost every imaginable areas. Ears, beard, hands,legs and peni.. (ops nth. )

I am proud to say I have managed to accomplish my mission of shooting the BDK's head!!!!!!! I never knew I had that in me. A pellet straight through the hole of the wooden block and "PAK!!!!" at the nose bridge area (thank god for the mask) and to see her recoil was the best moment.

We had a wonderful dinner at the restaurant in Sembawang Park. The ribs wasn't that fantastic, but the crabs were OMG. I had never eaten a crab so cleanly before. Obviously I was waiting for my desert. The way the chocolate sauce just oozed out from the tart deserved another OMG or ahhhhh~

I love my Fridays.
I love DCD.
I love the ninja master and the 2 ang mohs with him.
I love paint(pain)balls

Sweet revenge comes in the form of paintball pellets.

Woooooo! Paintball this Friday @ Orchard Country Club. Sat movie maathon + dinner treat. Yipee!

I love DCD, I love the new New Yorker. Damn, he is leaving this week, but another UK ang moh will come. That means, more colourful language ahaha. Shared table with Vinc today, despite him giving me a day off ytd to arrange tables =.= . Yesterday was a dark day for the "ninjas". It's really how real things could get that sometimes scares me. One moment this lady was all smiles and jokes with you, the next she was off complaining to the boss about you due to sheer jealousy. I am so gonna dao her. No doubt we might be wrong in the 1st place, but the way of handling was as good as the pay rise after the GST hike.

Ashyura gave me a surprise call today. It was really a surprise considering that she's gonna take up medicine if she would pass the interviews. Sigh, I wished I did have that courage to face those elites I have always hated. On a brighter side (or maybe not), NTU called me down for an interview for the double degree course. After calling this big bunch of China peeps, I am contemplating whether to spend my 2 yrs in Beijing already. Gosh, I am not sure whether am I prepared to make such "adult" choice.

I cannot imagine leaving my friends for 2 yrs. Except to survive on MSN. Strictly MSN. Then again, everyone is going their separate ways. NS... work.. poly.. uni.. thinking of this growing up phase makes me sad all over again...

Well, shall go check out the interview and see how then.

Oooooooooo, it was my dad birthday! As usual, we had a very happy day :) Laughters and all. I bought him chocs n biscuit to eat in office since he always have gastric attacks. (Actually it is because, i don't know his shirt size) AHAHAHA. Happy birthday dad, 2 more years to the big old 50. Yikes! My dad is about half a century old! And I am only about.. 1/5 century old.

Today is the most disgusting day for this month, and it is not because I stepped on shit.
I am ultra turned off by the people around me.

How self assuming they can get.
How disgustingly egoistic they are.
How fucking clueless about people's attitude towards them.
How bloody thick-skin they are.

I can't stand to elaborate about this. It is either I will throw a chair at some point of time or the wall will find my fist to its face.

Popping by to Youngpap forum, I was even more disgusted to find the intellectual(or lack there of) arguements over there. The words used are so colorful. If I may assume that PAP ain't controlling the forum at all, then perhaps there is indeed a reason to worry about SG future.

"Kan ni nia JXX what you talking? Philipine that one is maid lah! Sg one is become managers! Where got same? Simple as that!"

Did not bother to find more extreme one. I guessed the simplistic one is the author who wrote this. The rest of the posts were filled with leh lor lah mah. Agreeable as I am about the unique singlish. This is totally off standard. A beauty forum have more intellects than these people. Oh yes, that's a fantastic way to attract top talents. Really.

It's getting worse by the day. Correction. By the night. It seems to be a regular thing to have that bouts of panic, only to be ceased whenever I take in deep breathes.

Anything simple thing can trigger such thoughts. The non-living. The living. The shows. It is almost too painful to associate my brother with my parents together. I used to run to my dad whenever it happened. Yet now, it pained me just to see the white hairs on their head, the wrinkles on their faces. The absolute term of the age.

I used to have so much things to distract me from it. I used to know so many ways to get by each day without thinking. I cannot understand why it is happening more and more frequently. Even outings with AIs did not help. Somehow, some way, somethings will just remind me.

Things we often taken for granted. Breathing. Moving. Eating. They all seems very real to me. It seems to me that I am acutely aware of their presence and all the more it pushed me to the pursuit of substainable survival.

I can't stand this any longer.
Someone.
Help.

Dinner @ Pizza Hut after a lunch 2 hours ago was tough. My stomach must have grew bigger for I managed to stuff 3 slices of pizza down into it. I am so fucked up. I have skipped my gym for 2 weeks YIKES !! Somebody! Be my life long gym partner can ?!!!

It was a weird group combination. I suddenly missed ML Yiting Aggie Kel n Choon!! Ahaha. Nonetheless we have to open up yea ? I am proud to say, I am about the same height with most of the guys for once. YAY !!!

Watched The Reaping. The second thriller after " Hide & Seek" . Story line is more or less predictable. This is one show which I watched tt delved deep into Christainity and Satanism(?). The past few shows like Constantine, The Covenant was only a touch and go on Satanism. Those shows brought an interested in understanding Satanism. This show however, got me totally backing off from it.

I was expecting more of the "left behind" book feel.

Some weird feeling came over me when I heard the name.
It seemed like their association was wrong to begin with.
Could not help but feel that it was all my fault.
I wonder have I bought the same fate to the other few.

Or maybe I am thinking too much.
Maybe it is just the way it should be.

DCD is fun! I liked talking to China people more and more. Siemens is really generous man! Thanks to them I hit the China quota for the day weeeeeeeeee. I am so so happy. It is like finally it meant something to some people when you spitted so much saliva in a day.

Oh yes! Mao surprised us by queueing up for the famous Doughnut Factory for 2 hours!!! Even I, the bread hater loved the doughnut that I stole 2. The other office people were like staring at us jealously, sneaking peeks at the doughnuts. Muahahaha we are the champs!!

Celeb shades had FINALLY REPLIED ME. Thank goodness. My 100 odd bucks is saved!!!!!! WEEEEEEEEEE, today is my lucky day!

Let's hope tml would be even better =)

It feels soooo good to finally let the whole "Mr. Perfect" thing to Beth other than Mr Loo. At least Beth knew that feel. Nonetheless is over. Yep the scenes of coincidences are enough for the lifetime.

Artificial Intelligence. The second time I watched the show. The second time it landed me in tears I thought that would never existed in that volume again. Haley Joel Osment really acts well in that show. He is same age as me la!!! Xia dao~~ and his face never changed, which looks really weird now. =S

Did not fully understand why AI made me emo. so much. The concept of family love ? The idea of time past ? Or perhaps the sheer thought of life ? Whatever it is, that would be one movie I would not stand watching in a crowd.

I have decided to change the blog song to one of the soundtrack in the movie. "The reunion"
Enjoy.

To sidetrack, some random stuff.

I hate you guys, wth is wrong with you all ? Why changing subjects and topics when we barely started on one?
Mr. Cek ark where have you been ? Some people have been asking for you.
My brother had a fever.
Someone is intruding my music folder. That is INVASION OF PRIVACY!!

Right. The reunion. Enjoy!

Urgh. It's just the 4th working day and I have the evil thoughts of leaving DCD. It is hell working with yakking girls, staying alive with their drowning fashion advices which you could not care 2 hoots about. What's worse is I am going to join in the yakking starting Monday.

It seemed like I am quitting not because of irritating people even though some were. I am quitting (again) cause of the routine. It made me wonder whether was I borned on the wrong star sign, for I am suppose to LIKE routine. I quitted on OST cause of the routine surf-net work. I wanted to quit DCD for the same reason as well.

It makes me think whether is there anything in this world I will not quit on because it has slowly become a routine. I can just imagine this scene :

1st month : Date
2nd month: Marry
3rd month : Divorce
4th month : New one.

Sounds funny but thankfully (should be) impossible. I told Mr. Loo about it and we even went on further talking about aborting babies after 3 months.

The only routine I probably did not quit on is school, or maybe because it is like life, every changing, learning new things. That why it is not a routine to me.

Right. Back to reality.

Planet Earth - My mouth was open throughout the whole show. The effects were well done to complement Mother Nature. It awed me everytime the way nature works. It feels as though everything in this world will eventually achieve its balance even though it does not seem that way occassionally.

It struck me how beautiful Earth really is. How it is like a miracle for me to be sitting here looking at nature fast forward. The simplicity of this fragile balance just touched me, and it struck me how awfully disgusting we were as humans to continue to destory it.

I am officially addicted to this documentary.

Second day at work. I have been british-nised. Bloody hell. Fucking idiots. Stupid. Disgusting. Such words just flowed out naturally. Boss has such colourful language. Ooo the UK accent. Sexy :P

My task was slightly different than SY in a sense that I am doing more research than promoting the stupid thing. Yet I could not concentrate with the 2 girls YAKKING at such a high pitch just to promote the bloody conference. Thank goodness I was smart enough to bring earphones for my music pleasure .

I have decided to do my task slowly so that I would not enter into the terrifying world of "tae-ing" to potential clients.

Company is much smaller than OST since this is afterall a branch. People are much more interesting, dynamic, more outspoken. Ah, this reminds me of the days with David during GP woot~

Righty is only the 1st week. More evaluations next time =)

Was clearing the itunes when I found this song. It took over Phantom's songs,win liao. I shall put it under "song of the month". It is the blog song now! Should be able to hear it if you are using IE =)

Told bee that I will comfirm be touched if someone sings this song while playing the piano ( not that I was hinting him) since I've thought of the perfect person to.

This blog skin is getting stale, I shall change one to match this song.
Too romantic a song ? A hint that I am getting desperate ?
Ahaha, who cares ?
I love the song, that's all.

I bet some kpos will ask me who the perfect person I am thinking of.
What will I say then ?
Hmm..

Not telling =P
