Humming: Craig David - Walking Away
I'm walking away, from the troubles in my life
I'm walking away, oh to find a better day
woooh.. many pLaces were affected by the sudden bLackOuT! yes my pLace was affected as well but was restored within 30 mins. but those hbd flat opposite my building werent so lucky, they waited longer.
was quite a nice scene actually, when everypLace was dark with car's head lights only =)
remembered that when i was still over at tampines, when the whoLe bLock suffered blackout, most ppl will shine their torchlight out of their window where the lights will be reflected on the opposite school's wall to signal that there's a blackout. sO fun! hahhaa coz that's the only time when i can play with candles! oK, those were the times~

动也不能动 也要看着你
直到感觉你的发线 有了白雪的痕迹
直到视线变得模糊 直到不能呼吸
让我们 形影不离
nice songs, movies, stories are worth listening, watching, reading over n over again~
watched 'my sassy girl' on friday night again for the 3rd time. no wonder after this movie, korean had lotsa movies created with the sassy theme coz 'sassy girl' is such a successful romances comedy! even after watching it for 2 times, it can still made me laughed & touched my heart. haa.. imagine if this is a real story made into a movie, this couple should be one of the happiest couple in da world..
listened to 'sandy lam - at least there's still you' today, didnt used to love this song before reading an online sad story. but after reading the online story, i can really felt the sadness in the lyrics of the song.
maybe i didnt have a good look at the lyrics before reading that story.
oK.. here's the Link.. but it might not be ur cup of tea & it's quite time consuming! EnJoY~

Oh!~ wasn’t able to sleep well recently! And today was worse.. erm.. have 'nightmare' again ok should be weird dreams.. aiyo! Why so many recently?
was on my way to attend a sec sch gathering i guess, remembered it was somewhere near geylang? [think of durian too much i guess] but the area felt was somewhere with not much vehicles, much serenity.. forgot much of the details but soon was making my way home with a free drive from.. a friend A, [soooo weird! havent been contracting with him after sec grad? & i dreamt of him?] he was driving soooo fast as we were on some highway & right after i commented 'erh i think better slow down abit' he crash into those long vehicle & everyone on car flew out..
then i had those out-of-body experience? i saw my gal friend died! 2 guy friends unconscious but still alive-feeling.. & when i float back to where i flew to.. ok.. i was unconscious in critical danger.. then i woke up!
Oooh ok.. strange enough when i was experiencing the out-of-body encounter i didn’t feel scare if i am dead or not.. hhahaa.. sooo weird~ is there really life after death? erm.. i don’t think soo.. & sometimes i wondered.. why on earth pursuing our dreams, goals.. but to realise everything will be over when u are dead.
Sunday, June 20, 2004
woh! woke up with a 'nightmare' ok not that scary eheee but weird.. & ache all over my back. Yes back, the back of my hand, shoulder blade, body. i need to roll to my side & sit up before getting of my bed! hoohoho.. ok not due to the after-dream effect but the free kickboxing given @ heartland maLL. free!? yup coz they are trying to publicise their new shop there. went with sisters & they dont feel that ache! only a little? oooh..
the nightmare~ ok not scary but weird..
remembered the place was a new place in my dream & sorta working @ the moment. was working on some voice recording with my sis's friend - weird! lets named him Q. There was a time when we were doing other stuff but left the recorder to continue recording although there's nothing to record anymore & some pplz later commented that they heard something weird from the recording which i didnt manage to hear them in the dream..
soon after some weird stuff happened, & Q's mum seems to get possessed was screaming @ me & my sis chasing us to get out of the place! wasnt giving much attentions to that as i was still working on my stuff, but soon the situation got out of ctrl & i was on my run! ok.. should be jumping off the stair from the top step to the last, but the stair dont seems to end!
hehehee kinda make me recall when i was still a little kid, i love to jump down from the top step the to last step & i actually can! hahaa! but with the railing support of coz!
hahaha read from magazine, website etc that such dreams of running-away are common, sorta reflected the dreamer is running away from something in real life? i wonder what am i trying to run away from subconsciously..
woh! kickboxing in real life & running in dreams are making me super archie! =|

Frente - Bizarre Love Triangle
I feel fine and I feel good.. feel like I never should..
Whenever I get this way.. I just don't know what to say. ..
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday.. . ...

bacK tO the sTarting pOintz..
Yes! i was trying to get my comments up on my bLog but it just didnt appear.. didnt have much free time to 'debug' my codes! ooooh okok.. i am just being Lazy.. arggghz.. =X
Thus i follow morit suit by using the template that blogger provide to get the comment function up.. & i will slowly work from there to what i have earlier..
diff pplz have diff way of working & getting things done.. for this case..
would u scrape off all the hardwork u done or continue to debug the prob?
haahha i will depend if it will be easy to restore.. in this case my blog. Seems like it will be quite easy thus i will try to work from the starting point again..
but in life.. many things that happened cant just with a few clicks and simply go back to the starting point.. alot of things that u wish might not be what it may happen.. i also wish i have the ability to go back to the starting point in many aspects in life.. the ability the guy had in 'butterfly effects'
but yup, the story give me the idea that.. if u tried to amend the mistake/wrong move u had made in ur life by going back to the past.. u may be causing more harm to other ppl that u loved.. as u will not know what could happen if u change the flow of what it is suppose to happen.. thus, think carefully on the things u wanna do and dont regret..
yes.. i sometimes do, still wish that i had the guts sS had.. go aussie to continue my studies right after my poLy gradz.. but who knows.. i might had the guTs but not the brain & fail miserably with heavY debtz~ *sighz*
*btw, butterfly effect is a super nice movie!!! go watch it if u havent! on vcd of coz =P but if u dont like.. pls dont kiLL me..*
We all have moments when we wish we could change something. Right a wrong. Correct a mistake. Gain love or power. What if we really could?

Rialto - Monday Morning 5:19
at eight o'clock we said goodbye, that's when i left her house for mine
she said that she'd be staying in - well she had to be at work by nine
so i get home and have a bath, and let an hour or two pass
drifting in front of my TV, when a film comes on that she wants to see
it's Monday Morning 5:19, and i'm still wondering where she's been
cos every time I try to call I just get her machine
And now it's almost six am, and I don't want to try again
cos if she's still not back then this must be the end
-
Came across a movie synopsis that made me felt like watching it when I was checking out timing for 'The Day After Tomorrow' which initially wanted to watch with von & her cousin but didn’t make it coz we didn’t make any booking thinking monday should have seats even w/o bookings. but we all forgot that day was 'O' LeveLs chinese paper and everyone will be enjoying themselves after the exam, the starts of June holiday & great singapore sales!
Thus i gradually forgot abt that movie coz i suffered easy memory loss =(
Read abt good reviews on 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' & I wonder what was the story abt. so i surfed through net and realise that only shaw hse aired the movie. To my surprise, that’s the show i wanted to watch!!
due to bz days at wk recently, not much time to check on the website for timing thus, used mobiles function check. disadvantages, only 'today' timing was given with little time slots. thinking the show might not be on aired anytime, we made our way to buy tix.
reach @ 1500 for 1515 show, thought might still have seats coz had those ooh-going-to-off-air-soon-so-not-much-pplz-will-be-watching-it mentality but the screen displayed FuLL HouSe!!~ *faintz* but we manage to get the tix for the next time slot, 1715.. =D
it was a classic-feeling movie in my opinion thus even shaw hse allocate the movie in their 'shaw-classic' theater. it was a little slow-pace, not much great movie effects but I felt that it is a nice movie with a great plot.
if u were given a choice to erase ur memory selectively, will you do it?
I will not, not even those sad memories.
Pplz survive with memories too don’t u think so? Not only the needs of oxygen, h20, food… w/o memories, life will be very meaningless. pplz learnt their mistakes/lessons etc through their experiences/memories in every aspects may it be relationship, life, work.. thus I felt that pplz should learnt how to let go instead of 'erasing' the selective memories that they had. u will remember it even more when u remind urself to forget it.
the ending was a nice one.
In the movie, a nurse working at the clinic, went through the surgery to erase her memory too. to realise that it was a big mistake right from the start when she stumble upon the truth somehow & put a stop to it by sending all the classified documents to all the patients who might caught in the endless loop of getting to know the ppl that were erased from their memories all over again~
Saturday, June 12, 2004ooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh.... havent oT for v.long & actually helped albert with much impt stuff for coming monday event. wasnt really familiar with osc software thingy they used to update stuff to the homepage and new requests will popped out like within minutes! thus it was quite time consuming & with my carelessness, precious time was wasted to debug my super simple error! those additional ';' blah blah error! *bOx myseLf*
kT was my saviour to debug my stupid error! boooo... but i guess he is used to it already! since poLy? was it a curse or what *sooobz* i seems to have those tiny winy stupid errors which will make me puKe bLood always.
but time flies & had learnt something new in how to use the osc thingy. felt that it was stiLL noon when it was like 1800++ already! albert, kT and mE aLL skipped our lunch w/o feeling much hungry and albert treat kT and me for pratas in return of the favour. *yum yum*
when over to kT place for dinner which was notified abt an hour ago but still wanted to join albert for dinner. i will feel bad letting him to eat alone but i cant really seems to stuff myself with much food even though i only ate a prata an hr ago? maybe it was due to my stomach pain =(
bz/tired day but decided to take bus instead of train. weird me, sometime i just preferred taking bus over train. but i totally forgot it will be really packed on saturday night!~ bad move! *sighz but too late..*
midway though the ride, we manage to move toward the middle of the bus & a lady offered a seat beside her as she moved all her barang barang to her lap but i decline the offer coz the seat was too tiny for my big butt.. =
then i turned my head to the front and i noticed fresh blood on a guy neck! omg~ instant reaction i traced the blood to the source & i felt a little 'sick/grossed' of what i saw.. i saw his earlobe was being cut and part of it is dangling from his earlobe.. & he gave pplz those 'as-if-nothing-had-happened' feeling..
the lady who offered me the seat left next stop & kT hinted me to have her seat.. as he seated beside me, i asked.. 'should i give him wet tissue', thinking if wet tissue is suitable for open wounds... alas!~ he dont know the guy beside him was bleeding..
while i was still fidgeting ard thinking should i or should i not offer the guy my wet tissue, i saw one of a boy seated opposite me giving out 'sick' expression.. asking his friend if he had any tissue.. some intuition drew my attention to that guy & i saw him touching his ears!~
arghhhh! i cant help it but to ask kT to offer my wet tissue to him.. hoping that there will not have any side-effects on him... he soon alighted... & every pplz who knew he was bleeding become relieved & was yakking away.. *sighz* those aunties.. trying to pretend that they dont know a damn when that guy was ard bleeding by turning their heads away.. but yakky away when that guy was gone..
caught in such dilemmas.. i am glad that at least i did offer some help for that guy, else i believed i will alight the bus with a regret for not trying to offer him some 'help'..
but maybe that guy did give pplz creepy feeling on why he got himself into such mess & didnt go for a doctor in the 1st place before boarding the bus that made others dont-know-what-to-do-but-act-blur... i was actually afraid, that he might turn aggressive if we offered him those wet tissue...but i sensed that he was thankful that we offered him the tissue & wanted to return us the remains.. of coz we asked him to keep it..
but am i correct in-medical-term to offer him a wet tissue, i dont know.. just hope that everything will be alright for that guy..
*fyi, the bus is with seats that were designed to face each other, allowing pplz to stand in between*
so the moral of the story for this write-up?
offer pplz some help when they need it.. who knows, u might be the one that need help someday..
ok.. no pplz can guarantee 100% that u can get help from other pplz when u need it.. =
oooooh i am contradicting myself.. but i believe u understood what i am trying to convey..
i am a free thinker but i wonder, who determine what events/incidents/ will happen to u.. is it like.. if i dont need to work till so late on a saturday? dont take that bus but train/bus home @ that time from kT hse, will i met that guy?
ok.. i am being crappy/over-reacting over such peanuts/no-big-deal-incident…
Thursday, June 10, 2004Finally, our geyLang trip is being fulfil! had a little dimsum at a 24hr shop which we initially thought might be quite cheap but to many surprise, the price were quite high, higher then normal pricing where we can simply get something similar at many other places at cheaper price.
Durian Feast was finally here & i ate lotsa durian even though my stomach is giving me problem since monday. cant resist the temptation from the king of fruits =P
soon noticed that marck is being v.quiet/paLe after his 'test' for his chinese presentation on monday event @ the durian stall when we were happily enjoying our durians. as he might be meeting pplz from the media, he need to improve his chinese & we threaten him to improve his chinese with durians =P
felt a little eviL but he is still very onz in joining us for the durian feast & even happily finding good food ard geylang for us. thanx! =)
soon after our fill from our yummy durian which was heaven! @ cheap rate of $2 per durian! we went to the famous 'you tiao da huang', 'fried fritter king' in translation?, marck finally return to his usual self eating happily and he commented 'oooh! i felt like swimming just now coz i was holding my breath!'
might have another trip there the next few days when my sis is back from her honeymoon! a famiLy trip, yeah!
thanx aLL that make this trip happen! =)) *not in Order* aLbert.Kenny.marcK.vOn.Sis.kayTeck.mE!

伊豆的雪像流星 露天温泉背对你
我许的愿是秘密 不敢大声说 多么幸福满足
怕世界听见 会太忌妒~
have fun with
Tontie, while i try to backlog asap kekekee =P
Saturday, June 06, 2004 today is the 4th anniversary with kT.
thanx for tolerating my temper, nonsense, grumbling, nagging etc etc for this past 4 yrs.. =)) wasnt gd at expressing myself in word but thanx! for the care n concern u showered me daily =)) which made my sis sicked of it especially she get to see u everyday now! whahahhaa!! =X
saw The Day After Tomorrow, nice effects with storyline that tells us to save our mother earth. ignorance will coz the deaths of human race.
remember one's joke before watching the movie when a bunch of us were walking back to outram mrT station [where our company building was visible in sight] after his treat. He was pointing to the 'The Day After Tomorrow' poster asking 'Where will you be the day after tomorrow?', 'There!', pointing to our company building. we were laughing at the joke as it was quite true that everyone will be still working @ our company many days after tomorrow.
but after watching the show i wondered again, what will be the feeling when death is coming for u & all u had done was for nothing. it will be a horrible experience if it really happened and u will not know where on earth is the safe place to hide & survive from those tornadoes, flood, hailstorms, freeze etc etc..

was a fatty buzzy bee this week..
Thursday, 03 June, 2004Yes! Today is my sis big day!! she had been bz for mths and can sensed that it is really a tiring/expensive stuff to have a wedding dinner. used to think that everyone should have a grand wedding dinner at some hotel ballroom when I was younger but as time goes on, felt that it wasn’t a ‘need’ especially after seeing how tired/bz my sis had gone through planning her wedding dinner. I wonder if I will have a dinner next time.. =P
mY Itinerary:
0710: wake up!
0745: ArrivaL of Groom & Brothers/ Fetching of Bride
a tradition is to get past the obstables set by ‘sisters’ & giving them some ‘red packet’ before letting the groom fetched the bride over to his hse. thus had some fun bullying the groom kkekee. qns was set last min & I only remember a few. ‘what was the bride wearing on the 1st date’, ‘where is the place u 1st gave a rose to the bride’, ‘say i love u in 5 diff languages’. simple yet difficult. I don’t think I remember what he/me were wearing on my 1st date, especially after soooo many yrs for some couples. ok I don’t really have a 1st date! booo... =P
0830: photoshot @ PooLside
1200: Buffet Time!
Yummy yum!~ was starving till the food came!~
1300: ArrivaL of Bride & Groom for tea ceremony..
1600: Clear uP the mess
1730: get ready & make our way 2 hoteL
1930: heLp ouT @ reception corner
ok we were LaTe OMG!!~ so paiseh.. we tried our best to reach there on time but Murphy’s Law states that something will always go wrong =P [quoted from zm] & I agree with this law completely. shits happened which is just simply not within our control! it just happened!
I believed my sis’s day wasn’t that good due to some incident from one of her conversation with her friend & from her expression I can truly understand how she felt coz I had gone through that experience before too but everything is ok in the end & she is now happily roaming ard melbourne with my brother-in-law =P
used to have the ‘its just another wedding dinner’ thoughts when I was attending others' wedding dinners. but the feeling is totally different when it’s ur family member the one on stage cutting the ‘caKe’, pouring the champagne..
I will miss her presence in my daily life.

1st Time Achievements:
» cycled past the lovely cozy bay
many ppl had talk abt it before & the place is soooo nice with those blue lightings along the riverbank. the feeling of cycling across the bridge is great~
» cycled for the distance of 55km approximately
woh!~ didn’t notice that we had actually cycled for such a great distance! 137.5 rounds in stadium?
» cycled overnight w/o going home to zZzz @ unearthly hours? [0300-0400]
last time own a bike thus can cycle home anytime, anywhere!
» watched sunRise!~
aLways thought sunrise @ ard 0600++ actually it was ard 0700! arghz aLways thought i had missed the sunrise when i woke up @ 0600+ last time and no determination to stay awake for sunrise when i am rotting in the chalet/bbq pits.
always felt great to cycle @ night, enjoying the breeze, away from the crowded/noisy streets of vehicles n pplz. ok I am a romantic-idiot, weekends’ nighttimes are the time when couples spent their romantic moments under the shadows of the swaying trees along the beaches, riverbank along esplanade. however saw something weird, is there any indication of the distance between one couple from another? Hahah.. the couples were reaLLy evenly spaced! What a strange sighting & I am not the only one in the cycling team to notice it! Hhee *ponder ponder*
the place was so crowded with pplz and performers, thus we forgo the idea of staying and made our way to Lau Pat saT!~
took a little break enjoying our usual satays & chicken wings.. had long forgotten when was the last time I fixed my butt on the chairs of those satays stalls.. enjoying a little starry view.. among those tall buildings…
soon, I realised my gears were a little faulty especially when changing gear while paddling my way uphill and sometimes can spell trouble! soon, we were @ the foot of the mighty mT Faber and the 4 of us failed our mission to conquer it! obediently, we pushed our bikes up the slope and met up with the experts whom said the fun had yet to come! woohoo.. my aching legs..
experts were getting ready at the little ‘driveway’ and the novices cheered happily for them. zoom »» lost sight of them. piggy me wanna try the thrill of dashing down & up the slope but within spilt seconds, piggy had her foot on the ground again =P
at the submit, cloudies were hiding those stars in the sky but it cant hide the magnificent view formed by those red lights on the buildings [erm what was it called? cant seems to remember it] & lamp lights. the city seems familiar, a scene from ‘lilo n stitch’ where stitch was building up a miniature toy city but to end it with his godzilla-behaviour. =))
as times goes by, the clouds were slowly making their way to another destination, stars were winking @ us happily. too bad I know nuts abt astrology though I am v.interested in it, else might be able to spot some zodiac signs! a great place to enjoy meteor rain if there’s any but with crowded pplz squeezing ard here n there might not be that great afterallz =P
had a little change of plan. though we didn’t have our durian feast @ geylang to drive marcK crazy, we went to the famous West coasT Prata staLL that is patronize by many nus students. was only the 2nd time I went there to eat prata coz west coast is way out of my normal routine.
ordered teh talek & nikki’s special: egg, cheese & potatoes fillings!!~ woooooh!! With curry dips… simply marvelous! YummYYY!!! Recuperate my legs while chatting for quite some time before we set off for our sunrise.
cycling ard spore on road w/o much ppl/vehicles on the street at unearthly hours was really fantastic!! especially along the stretch from esplanade to cozy bay, the cool breeze on the face and I no longer felt the aches on my legs anymore! only along that stretch though, was it the breeze or my sub-consciousness?
Upon reaching east coast, had decided to settle down at bedoK Jetty and was heaven on our side? the place were filled with pplz fishing ard and all seats were taken up at a glance but we found a seat which was the nearest to the sunrise @ bedoK Jetty. for that hour over there, saw the changes of the clouds & sky from dusk to dawn and it was magnificent!! was so amazed by the works of nature. do u guys agree?
And our journey ended with a macdonald breakfast @ stoned all the way back home. really didn’t regret not dating z-monster for one night =)) I guess the company is very impt too! *not in any order* thanx to marcK, Kenny, neLson, zhiChao, Fabian, Sis, & kT for making the trip possible. more pls hhhehehehe.. explore diff places in spore @ night =)
