You know u need to get a girlfriend when your parents and relatives start asking on how come Victor doesn't have a girlfriend yet.

Of course this could be due to the fact that my bro is going to get married next year, AND i'm the only cousin (of acceptable age) that doesn't have a girlfriend yet. I suppose such things can't be rushed. I swear i will get one during my 4 yrs in SIM. (this doesn't mean that i will find one in SIM)

Sigh...wasted so much time in wild goose chases. Guess i'm like the rest of the club. A bit humji! haha. INEXPERIENCE in dating too i guess.

On happier notes: I've bought a new pair of working shoes and sports shoes. Small feet causes great problems. Especially now when i have the insoles to put inside my shoes. Oh ye lucky pple with normal feet size, how i envy u.

Oh well, i've gotten over the many faults God placed in me.
a) Short height ( gotten used to that eons ago)
b) Very small feet (still whine abt it now and then)
c) Tight leg muscles causing intense pain when running/walking long distances. Basically it's stretching the leg muscles (like a rubber band). I'm envious of pple who can run w/o feeling the pain. I wonder how that feels like, to be able to run for over 2km w/o pain.

Well those are the small permanent problems that will always trouble me. *shrugs*

One of the most bitter pills i've to suffer in my life is having such small feet. I've always envy pple who can walk into shops and there's 100% or even 50% chance of having the correct shop size waiting for them.

Yes, i know this puts me being jealous/envious of around 50% or more of the world population.
I'm pretty sure these pple are ignorant of having the pleasure of walking into a shoe shop, pick out a nice nike/reebok/ addias/converse shoe and buying it after trying it out.

Me? I go to shops after shops, spend months looking for a shoe size to fit my feet (22cm to be exact. that's like a size 5). How i thought the problem was solved when the papers advertised custom-made shoes a yr back or so. Sighs...false hopes and despair resulted. Those customised shoe shops only made female shoes. 4 of those shops advertised admitted to that after i called them.

Some pple ask me why I'm wearing the ugly/ not that comfortable sport shoes bought in the Emart in camp. The reason: They were the only one with my shoe size at that time. Argh!!! The number of times I've been to a sports shop, seen a shoe I like, but immediately know there would be no size for me. How pitiful and pathetic it is.

Damm it!! Why's every custom-made shoe on the web meant for only ladies? I'm sure there are more pple like me. WHERE DO WE BUY SHOES CUSTOM MADE FOR MEN!!??? Fuck it!
What defines one as a Christian? Of course being baptised is a confirmation. But how abt pple like me who hasn't going to church for like yrs and yrs and yrs?

I guess one can call me a sceptic Christian. I believe but don't really believe at the same time. U know the usual questions like Why's there so much hatred and death and problems in the world etc etc.

But I do pray every/every other night. Usual stuff, keep friends/family safe/happy etc. Maybe I shld pray to be happy myself. It just might work. Somehow I think I was never really meant to believe in 1 faith. I might not be like Hx who would/and have argue with pastors/monks/converts, but I do habour doubts at times. ( typical pple the religious encounter everytime).

Religion is all nice, promote peace, trust, faith in one another and in one's Deity/God/. I respect that. (i'm tolerant of other religions). Anyway it's almost Xmas. Head being muddled with all the Xmas songs. Hence the talk abt religion i think.

Happy Early Xmas to my friends and readers, since i don't think i would be blogging on xmas after all.

I've just borrowed a book from Meiting on Wednesday. An very interesting and most engaging book. It actaully took me 2 full days (abt 10hrs of continous reading) to read it finish. Interesting, considering the fact that i can usually read finish books in abt 5-6 hrs, (which i did with the previous latest fantasy book i rented).

Found out something abt my reading speed: The more entertaining the book the faster? i read it. As in sitting on the sofa for 4-5 hrs at a stretch and ignoring necessities at times like lunch, water/food etc. Fantasy books are the types which i read the fastest. Others i tend to read at a slower pace.

Of course I read books fast because of my speed reading i guess. I can sort of read whole sentences at 1 glance. I miss out on minor details though. Hence i've to re-read the books 2-3 times. Minor details usually mean the town's name? some minor character's name etc.

Thank god for 2nd handbook stores. Can just rent the books and return them. Read finish the latest Artemis Entreri/ Jarlaxle Baenre book in 4hrs.

Anyway had an enjoyable dinner/desert with Meiting. Haha..didn't know she was a vegetarian. Luckily ate at a food court which had a vegetarian stall. All in all, a fun day. Like i said b4, girls are more interesting to go out with other guys (DUH! for obvious and not so obvious reasons)

12.37am. Time to sleep. Later on at 9am there's NBA.

Friday, December 08, 2006

Feel tired...too much dota not good for health. Last few dota games b4 my Univ term starts. I will make a promise to myself.

NO DOTA WHEN MY TERM START IN JAN 07!! Except during maybe saturdays. It's going to be study study study. I will be a shu zhong. a bookworm. I shall devote myself to the mastering of my books, notes and the english language/literature.

I've alrdy roughly planned my schedules. Morning wake up, go library for research. Then come back after lunch. Rest for a short while, read notes, have dinner, go for my lectures/tutorials at night.

I shall stand firm. Wouldn't be like gh who said will quit dota, but *thinks of the every weekend dota playing* bleh.

Let's see how long i can last. Shld be no problemo at all i think. Maybe I will keep my WC3 CD away. *hands twitching from withdrawal symptons alrdy* haha.

The Cheong Family has produced yet another genius. My little cousin has done outstandingly well in his PSLE! Score? I don't know. But I heard he has been offered the ACS(I) 6 yr study programme. So i guess it's been pretty good.

My uncle and aunt must have excellent genes. Everyone of their 4 kids are all smarty pants. Of course they have nurtured their children with great love and peace and harmony in the family. If only I could say the same of my own. Everytime I see my uncle being so kind and in sync with his children, i can only sigh and wonder at the possbilites if things were different.

But God? Fate? has tossed my bro and I such a way of life, and we can't really do a thing abt it. Where what should be love and care, there's only an abiding hatred. Slow and continously growing but always kept under control. Cold indifference is our attitude, be grateful it doesn't warp to something else.

Of course Victor has a very good personality. I've been praised as the most loving and big hearted amongst all the grandchildren in both side of the family. I wouldn't eat u..come to uncle victor. hohoho! Thing i took that particular trait from my mom.

Isn't it strange how such intense hatred and great kindness/genoursity co-exist? Such is the way of life. It doesn't mean I like the way it has turned out though.
Almost a week since Master Victor became Slave Victor when my maid was given leave to go back to her hometown for 3 weeks. Of course there's always a possbility that she will run away, forcing my family to find a new replacement.

Oh well, until she comes back or a new maid arrives, it's up to Butler Victor to
a) wash the dishes
b) mop the house
c) water the flowers ( thank god it's been raining for the last few days)
d) make the bed
e) help out in the cooking (i volunteered for this, but my mom seems reluctant to have me help out)

Ah I know what most of my friends are thinking. Victor doing household chores? IMPOSSIBLE! He's a pampered child etc etc. Well, YOU THOUGHT WRONG BUGGERS!!!! Victor does have the knowledge and ABILITY to do the various chores that's supposedly done in a house.

For potential wives**, (okok i know it shld be for the potential WIFE, but a guy can hope right?) VICTOR can do household chores! A good point/merit for a husband. Interested parties leave a note in the comments section. Will diligently check my blog for the next few days.

I've realised why I've started to blog more often. After JC, there's been very little time to practise writing essays or whatever stuff. Blogging, while not as good as pure good JC essay writing, it is at least some sort of writing or rather in this case a form of typing.

I've noticed a marked decreased in my spelling (swap spell as swarp) and pronunciation of certain words. Then again pronouncing words have always been a trouble for me, since i can't pronounced the letter "r" properly.

Learnt quite a bit from the grammer books i've been reading. But there's still a lot to learn. I must do more.

Wednesday, November 29, 2006

Unlucky nov 29th.

1) got stumped on learning from the damm book. However i have now successfully learn wat nouns, verbs etc etc are now after several hrs of reading)

2) Went out for lunch to find

a) the duck rice stall i wanted to have lunch at wasn't opened today
b) neither was the Prawn mee/Malay food stall
c) nor Pizza hut (was quite desperate by this moment)

In the end ate at KFC. not really nice.

And to conclude a lousy day:
ignored on msn again for the 250+++ time in a row? (take 2yrs+ i guess)
Sighs once, bigger sigh, biggest sigh.

Learning english from a book is tough. Not easy at all *shakes head* But it has to be done. If not i'm sure to lose out to the older pple in my class in SIM uni when term starts in Jan.

On to other things. I've noticed something very strange in the advertisements promoting the Asian games. Why do they show stars like Rodger Federer and Justin Henin? How very interesting to notice that Switzerland and Belgium were a part of Asia.

Wonders whether the promoters of the asian games can be sued.

Friday, November 24, 2006

Wow, took my 1st steps in learning more abt english to prepare me for the SIM open UNiv in Jan. Took out my bro's study book obtained in NIE which was abt english language study.

Want to spit blood. How did I ever do well in English without knowing a thing about Nouns, Proverbs, pronouns, determiners, conjuctions, prepositions, verbs??? Only thing i knew, as in the real meaning was Adjectives.

Think it had to do with the damm governement. During my generation ( makes pple like me sound so old), we weren't taught grammer. Bloody hell. THANKS A LOT PAP!!!! At least they have corrected this blunder of theirs now. Heard they have began teaching Kindagarten kids grammer again. Lucky pple. Blessed with more knowledge than their seniors.

Why does it always have to rain when i'm thinking of going out for lunch? Why does it almost always rain when i don't bring my umbrellra with me? SOmeone up there doesn't like me i think, or rather enjoys seeing me get soaked.

Thursday, November 23, 2006

ARGH!!! All my friendster testimonial has been deleted!!! NO!!!

I mean most of them were the usual victor is a nice guy etc etc, with an occassional insult thrown in, but still...

Ok i didn't have a lot of testimonials (small social circle i guess) but *sniff sniff* i'm an kindof emotional type of guy. (can hear the sniggers and laughter from certain friends. Don't make me kill u guys later)

Sigh!

PS: I noticed a lot if not every of my entries have the ".........." in them. Maybe i should try and cut down on it.

U know listening to Final Fantasy Soundtracks is a very soothing habit. The music for most of them are peaceful, relaxing, and pleasing to the ears. Most of them were composed by Nobuo Uematsu.

The latest FFXII only consisted of 1 song which he composed. I must say, the music i hear in FFXII is very pitiful. Sigh...such a pity that Nobuo Uematsu retired from Square Soft. *sobs* Truly a great talent gone.

But seriously, FFXII the soundtracks really cannot be compared with the other FFVII- FFX series songs. The music in the rest of the series are actaully so beautiful that i've stopped playing sometimes juz to enjoy the music in a certain part of the map. FFXII sadly lack that feature. In fact I often played it without noticing the background music at all. *laments more*

Think next time i will go to HMV and try to find out more of Nobuo Uematsu's cds. Heard he formed the band BLACK MAGES.

Listening to FF soundtracks calms my anger and temper. I LIKE IT! of course for some pple, they would say the music puts them to sleep. True in a sense since it's very soothing/calming etc etc. LONG LIVE Nobuo Uematsu!!
I've always loved taking care of my little Prince and Princess Nephew and Niece. If only they would be less irritating at times. But hey kids, u juz can't really stay angry at them.

Sunday went to my Ah mah's house for lunch. They were so cute! (as usual, i would always say that)

They both wanted to eat their small little box of conflakes. (luke loves Koko crunch , while miki loves her Honey Stars). At least Miki (short form of micheala pronounced as Mi care la. ) bothers to share her conflakes with me. She's so much generous than the SELFISH LITTLE BROTHER!!!!!

She passes her food (sometimes half eaten fruits too *yuck*) to relatives. Luke is abt ME ME ALL MINE!! He wants to avoid me from stealing his food. He even punched me!! HIS OWN UNCLE! So sad.

To emphasis his pt, he took 1 handful (pretty small since it's a 2.5 yrs old baby) and stuffed it into his mouth. Sighs...cute but greedy little kid.

Of course actually luke is quieter and less active than his elder sis. He sits quietly colouring on his sister's book.

Miki jumps, sings, and dances. Cute but noisy. One IRRITATING habit she has is sitting on me tummy after my meal. After that she attempts to plug out my leg hair 1 by 1, while singing a song. (I know i have hairy legs but still..argh!!!). Note: It's ok for her to try but for anyone else, it's like digging ur own grave. On the + side, she feeds me grapes. Nice feeling like an Emperor. *coughs* doesn't consider as child exploitation right?

My only wish for them is: WHY CAN'T THEY WASH OR WIPE THEIR HANDS ON TISSUE PAPER AFTER HAVING THEIR FOOD/FRUITS B4 TOUCHING ME???? YUCK! I'm always covered with fruit juices after taking care of them everytime. so sticky.

Anything to see them smile i guess. :)
Bachelor's club getting smaller by the yrs. First was John Ming, and now HX???!!

The club had *manually counts* 8 members...ok now 10 if we include will and gh. (ed,ivan,czy,yh,hx,john, myself, gh ,will, PSK ?), founded in yr 2002?? Attrition rate would be 1 person every 2yrs. So if u use mathematics, it would be 16 yrs b4 everyone gets a girlfriend. So by the time ed gets married (if ever), he can celebrate his 40th birthday juz in time. hahaha.

How weird that among all the pple, it's the 2 most unlikely pple to get gfs. Ok..actaully all of us are all very unlikely prospects. Haha..

Haha..survival type of elimination: HX voted off the island of bachelors. *sniff sniff sob sob* EVEN if he insists it's unofficial. *coughs* Since i know u will read this hx, ask u what's the difference between Official & Unofficial GF? Pray enlighten me.

In defence of Hx, he is the most muscular amongst all of us. I mean real muscles. All of us have big muscles, but most of us are 1 pack muscles. Hx might have 2-4. (only exception is Ivan whose bones can be seen pretty clearly)

At least i think Hx's gf (official or otherwise) is prettier than John's. Bloody hell.. I'm still jealous of non-single guys. (homos dun count, so bugged off)

Guess have to rely Ivan and Ed to accompany me to the "finals" of this survival "game" *evil laughter*
wanted to blog something but somehow don't really feel like blogging now. Peer pressure from hx and ivan. haha...everytime insisiting that i blog. ARGH!! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!! *jumps from my window* (probably juz get mud in my face since my house is only 1 lvl....but still...at most might have a sprain? lol )

Nothing much happened lately....kind of... i think...maybe....

*thinks*....ponders.....considers....

Sunday, November 19, 2006

Ok, think i did enough updating for the time being. Have to get ready to go to my grandma's house! Cooking Ba ku teh today. Hahahaa..YUMMY!

There's always something magical abt the way grandma(s) cook food. Everyone;s grandmas cook good food. Even when we try to learn how to do the same cooking, the end product is always (100%) inferior to their dishes.

BAKU TEH!! BAKU TEH! (*Starts drooling*). Just thinking of it makes me feel hungry.
Look how happy he is playing with the balloons. Of course those ballons were my 21st present given by my 12yr old cousin. (Since he enjoyed playing with both of them so much, i did give the 2 ballons to luke later on) I mean PLS!!! What was i suppose to do with them anyway once i got home? I'm no kid!!!  Posted by Picasa
Little Luke. Stuffing his mouth with watermelon. Just like his sister.  Posted by Picasa
Rare photo of my 2 grandma's standing together.Rest of the folks are my aunts, cousins etc in the Cheong family. Pretty small compared to the Neo side.  Posted by Picasa
Look how happy she is now with the melon in her mouth! Face looks funny here because i wanted to frown. She just wiped her little hands (full of water melon juice) on my shirt and pants. Kids... Posted by Picasa
The uncle who took away her watermelon! Blah! wanted to get her to look at the camera. But she was too engrossed munching at the fruit so i took it in an attempt to get her to stare at the cam. A "GREAT" success as u can see. (EVIL uncle on the loose) Posted by Picasa
I know this is a very delayed photo (takeb during my 21st birthday party) which was in Sept. Gosh...it's been 2 months alrdy. Anyway thx to my friends that came (ahem evne though i'm sure they wanted the free buffet more! haha.) Fine...they did give me good gifts in return. So i shld be more more gracious!  Posted by Picasa
Don't kn ow why SOME pple complain i don't blog more often. So far I've been blogging like once every 2 weeks!!!

That's a VAST improvement man! At least it's far better than the once every 2-3 months update. So anyway for the the lastest updates for the last 2 weeks

a) Been trying to find a job but so far no luck. blah! Think i would read up some english books on grammer and vocabulary to brush up on my english and prepare me for my Uni term in Jan. I must also be more err....refined? Will try not to swear so much (especially when playing dota) and try not to use singlish.

b) Attened ulric's birthday party on 17th Nov. Not bad at all. Bumped into a few old friends. Food there was GOOD!!! (at bloonie). Even though i think everyone overate.

c) Bought and completed FFXII alrdy. (in 2 weeks). That's a lot of time clocked in. But best to get rid of such a distraction b4 univ starts.

d) Realised that a person can plan for an event for many hrs, but if God doesn't want it to happen or by pure freak chance, there's really nothing that can be done. Man proposes, God disposes.

e) Since i'm using the desktop to type this out instead of the laptop, might as well update some of the photos i've taking from several occasions.

a Super super short post

Ever noticed the more u shave , the faster the damm hair grows? Now have to shave myself once every 2 days. How irritating. Have to thank my cousin for the shaver.

*mutters* Wonder whether anyone tried waxing their moustaches? it might hurt but if it saves shaving forever it might be worth it? Maybe shld ask ed to test it out. Get rid of his chee ko pei look.
hahahaha!


End of insanity. End log.
Bloody hell didn't know buying birthday presents could be so damm expensive and frustrating. I mean how hard can it be to buy gifts right?

Went to suntec to see wat chocs i could buy....almost vomited blood at the prices of the chocs at this shop[ called Govida ( i think). $35 - $200 chocs.

$35 was for those super puny and pathetic box of 6 pieces of equally tiny and puny choc pieces.

think i will try going Raffles place later on. Maybe i shld bring the SCV TV prg book along too. They did show several places of where to buy good choc for reasonable prices too.

Several things Victor never regrets spending money on

1) FOOD!!!
2) spending money on friends (a certain amt i mean, so dun try to take advantage hor ( Glares at certain pple with the surnames of Tang (ivan), Teo (hx), Chen (zy), Tan (ed). There think i didn't really mention names right? *evil laughter*
3) Relatives/ Family
4) Certain items which interest me greatly (wasabi coated peanuts etc)
5) Gifts (fortunately i dun buy them often)

Money doesn't bring much joy or happiness to a person(subjective) but it does make life damm convenient.

DAWN OF WAR: DARK CRUSADE

Sequel to the previous 2 award winning games, Dawn of war & DOW: winter assault.

This game is juz as good, if not even better than the previous 2. U can choose the necrons and the Tau empire.

Of course pple not versed in Warhammer 40k wouldn't really understand what i'm talking abt. If u want, u can go to wikipedia and go find out more abt it. Just type the word Primarch. It's really an interesting story. A bit dark and gloomy perhaps, but that's WH40k for u.

Best part is that my comp can handle the max requirements for the game. So graphics are set to the max. Can see all the details on the "soldiers". Their insignia, weapons etc.

1 of the few game my bro and i willing to buy the original copy.

FOR THE EMPEROR!

K. Done for blogging for the week/s.
Highlights for the 2-3 weeks i haven't been blogging (as usual). This would probably in 2-3 entries. I hate keeping the blog entries so long. Makes it harder for my KE PO friends to read. (be grateful ye mortals)

1)
Went out with MC at HV for a get together and juz to chill ard. Forgotten how fun it was to hang out and chill with a girl. She's gotten prettier. Fairer i think. As usual, i think i talked too fast. She showed me quite a few good places to chill in HV though, and a very nice vietnamese restaurant to have dinner. Haha..as it so happens, i didn't bring my usual bag which has my umbrella, and it juz had to rain heavily. (really got no luck)

After dinner, went to this place, Essential Brew, near BK. Fantastic place to chill out. Atmosphere is very relaxing. More for couples. haha... felt out of place. So to end it quick, chatted for 2 hrs. walked her back to her house ( i have always done that and will always see girls home, it's gentlemanly behaviour.)

Anyway ended with the promise of my taking her out for her birthday dinner soon (this week hopefully), since she die die refused to tell me what type of present she likes for her upcoming birthday.

Strangely enough, I loved talking to her. Conversation was very lively and entertaining. Even stranger, i couldn't really sleep that night. I mean i tried to sleep, but found myself tossing and turning.

Sighs...too bad she alrdy has a bf if not... Oh victor, if u were of a lousier character, u would try to woo her. Oh well..i look forward to our future gatherings i guess. Let's see what fate has in store for me. Such a frickled minded fool i am.

Sighs again...

Saturday, September 09, 2006

This sat my birthday PARTY!!!

Buffet lunch. Invited some friends and all my relatives

However, sad to say 99% of the girls all said they couldn't make it

a) either they really not free
b) I'm juz plain hated here. (can't be right)

Still i must admit extreme disappointment. SIGHS!....

oh well at least i can still play with my little newphew niece.

Btw did i mentioned the newphew spilled a bowl of logan/pinapple juice on me last sunday? and the little meatball ran to hide behind his mom! SO CUTE.

Little kids u want to hug and strangle them at the same time.
zz..this sucks! been in clutches for 4days now

apparently my right foot is in pretty intense pain when i place pressure on it. Hence forced to use my old clutches again....

Cause of pain: Badly bruised vein at the foot due to tight working shoes which i was wearing for the last 3 months

Inconvenience: On clutches. Cant go out. Missed czy's birthday party (ALL the CHICKEN WINGS!!! NO!!!! *sobs*

Sigh...Dr Yap said it would take 4-5 days of healing... so far pain seems the same abit lesser now though but still...

Hopefully by the time saturday comes it would be ok.

Kua see pua...knn...ccb...*insert various swear words here pls*

WTF! Made a detachment IC!! CB... Not bad enuff they forced all sorts of sh*t on me when i was a NSF. (only NSF Chief clerk with a CPL rank *even though it was only for 4 months*)

Now reservist also kana this f*cking piece of extra work. Can't give me a break is it? waste my phone bill to call fellow idiots...waste my 1/2 day to attend the damm briefing.

Wah liao leh! See bei du lan...feel like burning down the damm camp.

dun know what type of f*ked up army friends i had (who are still serving their NSF), kana put me as detactment IC...cb..knn....

*notice all the damm singlish?, reverting to the old hokkien beng soldier/clerk*

Hate the army but forced to serve in it.

We are the UNFORTUNATE led by the UNQUALIFIED to do the UNNECESSARY for the UNGRATEFUL! (Fits the Army description PERECTLY)

Birthday in 1 month 2 days time ya!

Still thinking what to do to celebrate it. But of course i'm encountering difficulties like who to invite, how to celebrate etc etc

Problems:
1: The pple to invite: who? I wouldn't mind inviting some girls along with the usual pple but that leads to no 2 problem

2: What type of food?
Guess it can be a buffet (but i believe the ladies might not like it)
BBQ? Might work out i guess. Cleaning up might be a problem and the cooking too

3. Where?

My aunt suggested my house but then again....it's a whee bit small
maybe a park like west coast or something or a restaurent..

4. Timing:
Univ term juz started so i'm pretty sure pple would be pretty busy studying (BOOKWORMS!) or working or sleeping So probably most wouldn't turn up i think

Come to think of it, my 21st birthday would be the 1 yr where

a) It's not during exams time (like it has been since the age 7-18)

b) When i was not in NS.

(age b4 7 i can't remember what my birthdays were like, blank memory)

Oh joy. Swoon with joy.

Taken from Mr Brown's blog site. Love reading his posts, so funny.

FYI: This was taken from an ICQ or was it IRC conversation? Amazing how he gets such stuff.

1 irrtating hugely frustrating bit of my job i HATE!!! : Calls bombarding me when i'm having lunch in front of the comp.

I mean i know ppple want to make money earn BIG profits etc. BUT must u call during lunch time??? Can't even swallow my noodles properly. Wah liao! I mean what happens if i choke and die while answering the phone?? My family members will be upset. My friends will also be sad because of no victor to treat them food/drinks (occassionally)

Next time going to charge those idiotic pple extra points for calling during lunch time. Make them earn less $$ *EVIL LAUGHTER*

*update*
getting blamed for a piece of work which i did. Even though i did ask 1 of the seniors for advice. (the usual person doing it wasn't around). So sick of getting blamed for things not my fault. (4th time so far) KNN. Damm mondays.
This is one of those mondays when I wake up feeling super sleepy and tired again even though i slept for 6hrs. Can u believe i almost missed getting off the right mrt station?

ZZZ....oh well monday blues monday blues...1 of those days where every light and noise is either too bright or light, the eyes are twitching. SIGHS!

Think i need a dose of coffee or sugar pump from sweets to get the blood going.

Random Thoughts

I wonder whether edward has finished folding his stars for the "mysterious" girl he likes. Come to think abt it, we didn't even asked him how many he intended to fold...Wonder how many it needs to fill 1 jar?

oh well, with luck it might take him a few months! hahaha. He said making the stars by himself shows sincerity, but if the girl loses interest by the time he finishes folding the stairs, it kind of defeats the purpose of folding them in the 1st place right? He shld ask czy to help him. Czy is the master of folding stars man.

So for guys wishing to fold stars for char bos, go look for him. I'm sure his charges wouldn't be that high. 5cents a star? 100 stars= $20?

Good business idea. Targets: Desperados like the Bachelors' club members.

My take on religion: I don't absolutely believe in any 1 religion. Rather i believe in the good aspect which religions portray. You know, the if someone slap you 1 side of the face, let him slap the other side too etc. ( for me if it's someone slap me on the face, u better be prepared to get hammered, simple logic)

Be good to your neighbours, be kind gentle caring etc. Of course not everyone can be like this especially since there are always back stabbing scrum and bastards everywhere in this world who will take advantage of such kind souls. But i digress so back to the original pt.

If you look properly at the 3 main religions (Buddhism, Christanity and Islam), all have their GOOD and Bad...no more like negative pts in history. Well...actually i can only think of some for Christanity and Islam, my knowledge of buddhism is a bit limited.

Negative pts in history

Christanity - Medival times: burning of "witches", "heretics" etc w/o conclusive evidence, group called the inquisitors who also used torture to extract such "confessions" You can kindof get the drift.

Islam - Suicide bombers, end of story


U can instil the principles of the religion on a person, but can such principles change the nature of the person? (especially if he/she is violent/evil in nature?)
Do i look like a Christian? Don't really know why pple always kindof say Victor is a Christian. For the record i'm more of a free thinker, haven't been baptised even though i went to church for a few yrs.

Do i have the Christian kind of look?

I liked going to church the last time because of the hymns i guess. and NO! there weren't that many pretty gals in my church class that time. Stopped going because I decided i liked my sleep better but more importantly I had tuition on sunday mornings too. (O lvl year)

wow...that means i have not gone to church for the last 5yrs. Some person i am. I'll probably make a lousy christian anyway. Questioning too much on the why why why why why qns. Will most likely drive the pastor up the wall and he will excommunicate me.

Next post : More on religion (don;t want to make this post too long)

3 things i love abt going to my Ah Mah's house on Sundays

1. The food! - no matter how good the food is at stalls, somehow food cooked by ur grandma ALWAYS tastes better. Even simple food like French beans tastes so darn good. The best is of course the fried chicken wings she makes on special occasions like CNY, 7th Month etc etc *drools* hmm...chicken wings

2. The relatives: Nothing better than a weekly or fortnightly or monthly get together with the cousins/aunties/uncles + 1 newphew and niece. STRONG FAMILY BONDING!!!

Of course with the addition of the newphew and niece it's more like a struggle to keep them from destroying the house but THEY ARE SO....CUTE!!

When they are behaving themselves (kindof rare), u can hug them, poke at them (gently) and carry them. (something like teddy bears, gosh...this sounds so insulting)

BUT

when they go havok....zzz.....ever tried chasing 1 kid up the stairs and keeping the younger 1 downstairs?

Worst is then the older one goes on a warpath, the younger 1 follows suit. Ever tried fending 2 babies off when both decide to punch and climb over u when u are napping?

Even if one gets angry all they have to do is smile sweetly and all the anger is forgotten. (sneaky pair aren't they?). Babies...to strangle or not to strangle? (DUH! obviously i wouldn't strangle my own nephew or niece! VICTOR NOT MONSTER!! VICTOR GOOD!)

More on the babies next time

Don't u juz love this cool weather today? Raining weather, nice cool winds blowing outdoors, PERFECT for sleeping.

And i'm stuck inside the damm office blasted by the aircon and working my butt off.

So for those IDIOTS (male friends of mine included, I don't scold females) sleeping their heads off in this fine weather, i curse u!!! (not those serious kind of curses, juz the type where i hope the rain pours in from ur window and hits u on the face or at least wets ur bed until u can't sleep.
*grumbles and mutters swear words* Hates mondays.
Things I've missed:

a) The super old but excellent computer game: Master of Magic (was played in MSDOS)
(broke my heart to throw away the game, think the disc was spoilt)

b) Black Isle Studios (makers of Baulder's Gate series) closed down due to bankruptcy.
(sigh...no wonder i couldn't get any good RPG games for the last few yrs)

c) Dreamwave Comics (it produced the new Transformers comics. Don't laugh, but the storyline was superb and the artwork was like amazing too

d) and of course the famous amos cookies i bought last week. Enuff said

I hate Mondays!

because

I juz don't like Mondays.

Thursday, July 27, 2006

God forgive me for I've sin....I bought another 100g of Famous Amos Cookies...

How does one resist something that smells so good 50m away?

I'm so going to grow fat (fatter in my case).

Zzzz... *smirks, cookie eating time WHEE!* (obviously not in the least repentful or remorseful)

Wednesday, July 26, 2006

1 more yr for the Transformer movie in 2007. ZZZ...

Some pple say Transformers is childish etc etc and i shld give it up etc etc

Frankly speaking i'm only interested in it because it...hmm..how to put this into words...

It's more of a rememberance of the my past/childhood. To have a nice pretty collection to look and admire at. After all u don't expect me to play with those toys right?

If i knew then how much my previous toys were going to be worth in the future, i would have treated them better. $49 for 1 now? zzz.. Come to think abt don't even know what happened to my old toys. Think they are still stuck in some old box, filled with cobwebs, rust and dirt.

Monday, July 24, 2006

ARGH!!!!

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY CALLS????!?!!

couldn't even have my lunch or eat my fruits in peace!!!

Just the time taken to type this simple and short message and there were alrdy 4 calls!!!


Somebody shoot me...
Went to Meiting's house warming party yesterday with hx and herbert. Nice house, almost exactly the same design as Uncle Richard/Bob's houses.

Food was nice. Saw berlinda there, still looks the same, exchanged greetings etc the usual

Only irritating?, more like minor hipcup was that we were conned? nah too harsh a word, misunderstoond 1 incident

We were told to do some ritual/blessing (we thought it was those kind of rituals where u bless the owner of the house etc), instead it was some kind of spiritual thingy. Led into a room where they explained the whole spiritual thingy. Haha..too bad it was explained in CHINESE!!!

Great way to put me to sleep. Explaining spiritual philosophical discussion in chinese. I was lost after the 1st 4 sentences.

End: Hx was kindof pissed. Herbert and I were irritated i guess, 'discussion' took up 45mins.

After that Meiting took us ard the house then we went home. Interesting enough, found out there's a direct bus to/from there. Could be useful in case she invites us back for her 21st birthday

End of log.
U know it's going to be long and hard day when

a) u wake up in the morning feel tired instead of refreshed (i admit this happens almost every day)

b) Ur muscles ache like hell

c) 3 of ur collegues are on course and the phone keeps on ringing every 2mins.

*sniffs* didn't even have the time to pop a sweet into my mouth just now.

So much for thinking i could spend my lunch hour trying to buy a new pair of working shoes in orchard. Ah well, another day then. Hopefully my shoes doesn't wear out too soon.

Friday, July 21, 2006

Thinking more of my friends and how long i've known them. Here's a short list of them

Boyan - 15yrs
Sec sch friends (hx,ivan & Co, Mel Sim, 4/2 classmates) - 6-8yrs

JC friends? - 3-4yrs

Noticed I've no Primary Sch friends contacts besides Boyan? Lost contact with them way way way back. I do bump into them by accident like once in a very blue moon.

I wonder how many more i will lose contact with down the years?

Thursday, July 20, 2006

OMG!!!!

There's going to be another Transformers movie showing on 4th July 2007!!!!!

*hyperventalates* Breathe Victor!! Breathe!!

If i wasn't in the office now i would be jumping up and down.
If stores sell aroma theraphy that smells like freshly baked Famous cookies, I think i will be 1 of the 1st to rush over and buy.

Down to my last pack of cookies. Must savour every itchy bitsy last crumb of it. Filter the smell to my brain. Let it soak through me...

kk....better stop blogging on this subject b4 pple think i'ma nut case.

Must eat cookiesssss.........me precious........mine....aaalllll mine....
First no msn, games website, email - ok fine with me (huge pill to swallow but i did)

Then no U-tube - ok too

But now also no Friendster to log on to???? Zzz...

Wah liao!

Sianzz.....

Wednesday, July 19, 2006

Just waiting for the next piece of work and a pretty depressing thought hit me in the guts. It's the lost of several friendships gained in primary sch. *sec sch still holding pretty strong and i can't really be bothered with JC friends that much sad to say,save for a handful*

What happened to my 1st group of close friends? (b4 i met hx,ivan and co)

Daryl, Zixiang,Eujin and Boyan and I were as close as brothers in a way. Went out for movies, arcades and slacking in Eujin or Zx's house. (lan was not that popular? or held less interest to us 6-9 yrs ago)

Since then i've lost all contact with them except Boyan of course. Then again haven't contact him for 1 yr alrdy. Will meet up with him soon i guess. But what happened to the rest?

Daryl - CJC --->Army---??
Eujin ---> Army-->Australia Uni
Zx-->OOC from commandos then ?

It saddens me to have lost contact with them. Even though i still remember the good old times we had. Eujin's horny jokes, Zx's clumsiness at times and daryl..he was pretty quiet compared to the other 2. The long bus rides from NJC to J.Pt. (1hr20mins ride i think)

Sigh...dear friends where have all of you gone now i wonder?

Tuesday, July 18, 2006

Guilt:
I'm feeling super guilty right now. Spent $10 buying 250g of Famous Amos Cookies. Actually only wanted to buy 100g but the no of cookies looked so little....

Denial: I can' have spent $10 on cookies!!! It's not healthy, not cheap even though it tastes damm yummy. Man...wasting my money...my life blood away!!!

Acceptance: Ah heck...maybe i will buy more the day after...$10 more wouldn't kill me.

Besides give me credit! I resisted the cookies' siren call(smell in this case) for 3 FULL days! U know how hard that is?????? Juz ask those who have seen me walk past a famous amos shop b4.

Even though the smell at the Raffles place shop is not that strong but it still can make me drool. Don't bother asking what the shop at Wisma does to me. Requires Ivan and edward and maybe yh to drain me away from that sweet aroma. *drools*

The fresh is weak and my will is weaker when it comes to certain items. Sadly? famous amos cookies is 1 such item.

Friday, July 14, 2006

I've this sinking feeling that this is going to be quite a bad day...

3 pple absent (1 leave, 1 MC..)= a LOT more work

some system down= more calls=more complain= more work

Hmm..I wonder what else would go wrong today. Might be an interesting but vastly irritating day.

Thursday, July 13, 2006

For some strange reason i feel like practising my DOTA skills all of a sudden. Hearing 1st Blood if i'm lucky enuff can be extremely satisfying.

It would be nice to gloat over the rest after slaying their characters...haha....nvm. gloating shld be done in private.

Wednesday, July 12, 2006

Days like these when i wish i could juz carry on sleeping on my spoilt but still comfy bed with my thin but nice blanket when it's raining outside.

But no....now i'm in office, wet, tired and thinking of thoughts like this. What a wonderful day this is.

ok...better stop the sacarism. It's the best way to make a bad day worse.

Tuesday, July 11, 2006

Got my 1st pay check!

not bad for the 1st month of the job. Got paid OT for coming in 1/2hr earlier. :)

And no i'm not treating friends for now! Broke. Maybe will treat next time..like in 5yrs or so. haha. (Victor the miser/stingy!!!)
Ah feel so much better today. I mean I still feel a bit down as usual (but yesterday was much worse.)

Ah while pple were eagerly watching the world cup, i was watching tennis (wimbeldon finals). Rodger Federer plays near perfect tennis. Seeing him play is like watching magic! Exquisite moves and co-ordinations and he plays so smoothly w/o any (apparent) hurry. He moves like lightning too.

For some reason i don't really like Nadal. Something abt his looks i think that puts me off. Talking abt looks, the woman's winner, amelia mauresmo looks like a man. Cut off her pony tail and she will be a he, or a she man, he-she/she-he.

The men's finals was so much more exciting than the woman's. Nadal played well but Federer juz ran after all the balls. (lightning movements). *Shrugs* Guess that's why he's number uno!

Give me tennis and/or basketball to watch anytime over soccer. Yes i know most pple would say i'm those type of guys who like fast and quick actions. Instant gratification. Soccer's too slow for me. Besides i know most pple watch soccer only because they have placed bets on the teams.

Monday, July 10, 2006

I'm in a pretty foul and vicious mood today for various reasons(stated below). If i was a girl i would say it's PMS but i guess for me it's more like violent insanity mood.

a) Been having a pretty irritating painful headache for the last 2hrs

b(i) damm IT sec has disabled the acct which i was using to do my work, leaving me with THE account which lacks a certain Drive required for me to do a certain work. Idiots....told them not to disable it until my own account was fixed...

(ii) Best part they can't tell me when it will be fixed. (soon they say....been waiting for a week alrdy....)

c) bloody new comers keep on stealing the staple and calculator w/o returning it. It's a very minor irritation but on days like these.....

Feel like ripping someone's guts out and using them as a skipping rope or doing something equally gory juz to vent my frustations.

Friday, July 07, 2006

W/o Msn, email or access to any games site in the office, my 'fav' site in the net now is wikipedia!

Stuff i've searched:

1) Almost everything on Marvel Comics (sure saves me $$ buying comics).
2) War Hammer 40k (yes i'm a fan of the game/series but it's too expensive to me to start on it. Got the comp games of 40k though)

3) DC comics

4) D&D/Greyhawk (RPGs)

5) Angel/Demon lore & articles + greek myth (really had nothing to do on that day)

6) LOTR (even i've read the bks, saw the movies alrdy)

I wonder what else can i search for?

Wednesday, July 05, 2006

I would willing sell ivan or/and edward to slavery juz to get a good massage now. Body feels so stiff and tired.

On second thoughts, think i will only sell ivan. Ed might cause the deal to fail. he's such a lousy slave/person anyway. haha...

Tuesday, July 04, 2006

What a truly bad monday i had. The amt of bad luck i had was juz amazing.

a) 1st thing i heard when i sat down was my superior telling me i almost costed HSBC $86m due to a rate quoting mistake. (lucky he corrected it i think. Great way to start a monday ya?)

b) Had to do all the resetting shit for my new acct after they deleted my old one.

c) Employment service called to say they might not pay me the extra 1/2hr OT i've been coming in the morning for the last month, even though they paid the person i took over from that 1/2hr extra OT

d) Was hoping to go home on time (super rare event) but a stupid mistake made by SOMEONE!!! forced me to stay back for 20 extra mins

e) missed the bus 2x due to overcrowding.

f) Due to overcrowdedness and mostly due to listening to my ipod, i stopped like 5 stops after my house. forced to take taxi.... (k i was too lazy and hot to cross the street. U try walking in singapore with a long sleeves shirt w/o melting. )

Only good thing was that on the bus i met this pretty chio girl. (then again it was nothing much). Anyway she looked like she was ard 15-18 and totally sunburnt. (felt pity for her since she was carry this huge heavy bag and it was against her burnt skin)

All in all a very depressing day. Almost like asking me tolerate edward for a week with no breaks. Now that's a truly depressing thought. Gives me the shivers.

Monday, July 03, 2006

MOOOOONDAYs

Monday!!! Somehow i juz wanna slack even though i'm suppose to be working now.

Ah can't wait to get my pay check for Jun. Even though there's going to be very vey little left for me to spend (see previous 5-6 entries back). Juz found out the CPF deduction would be abt 20%!

Watched Corpse Bride yesterday. Pretty good show though it's a bit short(1hr 16mins). Can finally return the disc to ivan who can pass it to hx.

If i had 1 wish, i might consider wishing all mosquitos to die. Damm flying bugs...why are they always bitting me??? Even though i share the room with my bro, i can get 4-5 bites and he get none. My blood must be too sweet.

Last night only had 1 bite but this bug bit me on my hand where the veins intersected. Hope it overfed and became slow enuff to be eaten 1 of those lizards always hanging ard my room walls all the time. HATE MOSQUITOS! (thank god their life spans is only abt a week)

Thursday, June 29, 2006

I know i need a break or some sort of distraction when i start humming London Bridge is falling down continously while working...

Can't wait to go home, my cough/cold=flu? is killing me.

Wednesday, June 28, 2006

Funny thoughts

Juz saw the cover of 8 Days with the Superman image on it. He looks like such a weakling!!!! Couldn't they design his costume to at least show his 6 packs/ or fake it even if he didn't have them??

Then this super funny*in my own opinion* thought struck me. Even hongxin might look more convincing!! *picture of hongxin in a superman costume popped in my mind* (hx has curly hair, almost the same as S-man. and duh! he has mucles)

Man...that image also made me laugh out on the mrt.

Knowing hx, if he had such powers, he *might* be a good hero. But the image that keeps popping in my mind is him:

a)robbing a bank and *hopefully* giving $$ to his friends

or the more and very likely

b) Trying out all the good food in singapore at super speed and of course the usual "bullying" of friends

hmm..somehow in words it doesn't seem that funny. But if u know hx as i do, somehow the combination of his personality and super-like powers seems damm hilarious.

Now back to the mountain load of work that juz came after lunch...(thinking of the hx/S-man thought juz makes me grin)

Tuesday, June 27, 2006

Appearances

Juz so sick..nah..more like tired to pple mistaking my age. Even though i'm reaching the supposedly all great 21 years of age, pple still think i'm in sec sch!!! Juz last wk a taxi uncle asked me which sec sch i was studying at...zz...

Still remember that time in sec 4 i think(yes it was many many many yrs ago), was in church and this little sec2 kid think i was the same age as him. Didn't know whether to cry or laugh. (in the end i laughed)

Gotten so used to drawing out my I/C when going in for movies/and the very rare outings of clubbings.

Maybe i shld wax or gel my hair instead. Then again, i'm kindof lazy in styling my hair.

Damm...think i spilled water melon juice on my fav jacket..
Feels like a herod of cows juz trampled over my body last night. Kind of tired and aching here and there. How irritating it is. Juz wanna sleep and forgot i'm working. Been coughing the whole buggy morning.

me tired...me sleepy....me want to go sleep..me can't though.

Monday, June 26, 2006

Need more LIFE!!!

Random Thought:

Juz realised i need more excitement/adventure/fun? in my life. Actually all i want to do is maybe something different from what 'ive been doing so far.

I mean playing WC3:dota, PS2, basketball and going for buffets are fun but they do get tiring after sometime. (of course they are still fun, especially playing dota with friends. 1ST BLOOD *usually ivan*)

Hmm..i suppose getting a girlfriend would be a change from the norm (god..i make it sound like a GF is some sort of toy...certainly something i didn't want to or think)

Maybe i shld go to a museum or the Esplanade next time.

.....Random thought ends because it's time to go home.

Bored and ill

ZZZ....finished almost all the work for the except the usual last 2 pieces. Awaiting their arrival by email. Times like these makes me wish i could use msn.....but...darn office policy=no msn= internet restrictions. Can't even access gamefaq.com or gamespot.com. K n n.

Been coughing for the last 2 days. How irritating it is.

From Wikipedia: (heck...i had nothing to do ok?)
Phlegm may be of several different colors.
"Healthy" phlegm is normally clear or white.
Yellow phlegm is normally a sign of an infection, or a case of the common cold.
Greenish or brownish phlegm is nearly always a sign of infection. Greenish or rusty phlegm or phlegm with rusty spots can also be a sign of pneumonia.
Coughing up brown phlegm is also a common symptom of excessive smoking. This is due to resin sticking to the viscous texture of the phlegm and being ejected by the body.

So far mine's been yellow and green. Sian...infection and cold?? ah that sucks. Hopefully it will be gone in a day or 2. *coughs* *coughs harder*

Friday, June 23, 2006

POOR!!!

Since i'm just waiting for the last 2 pieces of work to come in, might as well blog blog blog!

Can't believe the Miami Heats won the NBA playoffs. (was actually rooting for the SAS but they were defeated by Dallas. Later on rooted for Dallas but again...). Instead of usually watching the playoffs on TV, was forced to 'watch' it on the nba website where a word for word description for the game was displayed *pitiful*

Oh ya, managed to knock off work early/only 5 mins overdue yesterday!! was so happy getting back home at 7pm.

Man this month's pay is juz going to be flushed down the drain :

pay back mom for cloths: (ard 250-300)
Own bro $$: (100)
Transportation/meals: $200
Fixing of PS2 : $120
Starting work on Jun 5 hence missing the 2 days (3-4 were wkends) = $104
Total = 824

Hence salary for Jun: $1200 - $824 - CPF = a very pitiful and small amount.
so for those pple thinking of asking for treats (image of certain friends pops up), BUG OFF!

Pauper Victor, that' would be my new name. PVC. (pauper victor cheong). at least for this month...

BORING!!!

Hate it when i have free time and the dumb office doesn't allow usage of msn or acess to email like gmail or hotmail!!! Heck...i don't even have a radio to listen music to (ipods/MP3s not allowed..at least i don't see anyone wearing them while working. Don't want to give the bosses a bad impression)

Now juz surfing the net (wikipedia) and reading other pple's blog. How dull things can become. Really prefer juz chatting with my friends online.

Office life isn't that bad. It's pretty obvious i can't blend or interact as well as my 'upper study' here, due to my lack of knowlegde of hokkien or canto. Everyone's all polite and stuff but well...there's this language barrier i guess. Ah well...i can live with it, after all survived army w/o using them too (only exceptions being the all too common swear words)

Still pretty much a noob when it comes to entering certain deals. ZZZ....hate doing those. 1 mistake might cost me my whole SALARY! (notice the difference btw the word 'allowance' used when in NS?)

Random thought: mel looks prettier w/o her specs. Guess Lasik worked well for her. (drifts off to other thoughts)

Thursday, June 22, 2006

Random thoughts

kk finished my afternoon work and having nothing to do till abt 430 or so....WHEE!

ZZZZZZZ...........BORING!!!!

Update(since i forgot i was blogging juz now):

OMG!! I finished ALL my WORK at 5pm!!! except for the last bit which comes in at ard 5.30pm. Does it mean i can go back at 6pm this evening?? ON TIME???!!!

Knowing my 'incredible' luck, some shit is going to happen juz when everything was going so well

*anticipes troubles, theme song of jaws starts playing*

So cold......very cold

Damm office, why must the bloody air cons' temp be set so low? Like trying to work in a f*king freezer.

Finding it normal for my hands to be frozen solid nowadays. Maybe that's why i don't mind buying lunch/fruits for my 'seniors'. Let's me get out of this icy tomb and have some sunlight and fresh air.

Sigh..i wish the office pple would open the binders and let some light in from the windows. Can't stand this feeling of being trapped in this completely man-made structure w/o some sign of nature ard.

I'm still freezing. (tempted to burn the stack of papers in front of me)

WORK WORK!

Now outta army and working at HSBC @ raffles place there. Got the job thanks to my cousin nigel.

so basically i'm working for $1200 a month (haven't excluded CPF yet nor included OT). works out to be $6.50/hr.

Working is NOT that bad. Guess i got lucky i think.

Working hrs=8.30am -6pm (in theory)

(reality) - bloody hell....i come in at 8am. It's the damm 173 BUS i take to clementi stat. If i dun catch it at 0715-0720, it only comes again after 15-25mins. Which would make me come to work at 0835 (late! that's with running all the way from raffles stat to the office)

Of cuz if i catch it at within the specified time, i come to the office super early. *grunts* at least i can clock in that extra 1/2hr as OT..i think.

As for the ending at 6pm....let's juz say the earliest i've ever left was at 6.30pm. latest so far was 7.20pm. (agaain thank god for OT payments)

*thought of Warcraft3 orc's peons saying work work pops up*

Of course all this talk abt OT paying is not confirmed since i've even received my 1st pay check.
(pictures fainting on the grd for not being paid OT at the end of the month)

NEW CAR!

Parents getting or i shld say bought a new car. After our dear old fort laser totally broke down 2x in 1 month.

So the new car would be another fortlaser. From what i heard blue colour (again) but an AUTO car!. sure would make it easier to drive. Then again knowing my mom, it would be many many many months b4 i can drive the car. (P plate= NOOB!!!!= Victor


Talking abt cars, that damm ivan also got his license.

Such a lucky idiot. Super slack tester, drove behind a slow car!! and only got -2 pts!!! WTF!!!! *some pple have all the stupid luck! He spent less than 1/2 the amt i did* Bitch!

TA DA!

3 months since my last entry...sheesh! Even after frequent promises to write more often. (believe it or not, it took me 3 days juz to enter this entry, kept on saying i will blog later)

So to sum up what has happened since Mar 06

a) got my driving license :)

b) ORD!!!! *evil laughter*

c) working at HSBC (raffles place). for the last 2 weeks or is it 3? ah..watever.

more updates soon.

Sunday, March 26, 2006

SO very tired...tired

well...seems i'vent written in here for the last 6 months. Sigh...nothing much to write..can't really think much these days. hasn't been a good Mar 06 for me. Juz recovered from the usual tonsils infection which knocked me out for a week. After that straight into the bloody exercise TJ. Not enuff sleep and rest preventing me from recovering fully. Only getting a few hrs of nap time everynight. get back at 12 midnight and back to camp by 7.30am every morning.

Even now i feel exhausted and my cough still lingers around. 5 more working days but why do i still feel so down and out? Just 5 more days...just need to hang on till then....
