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.

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.

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....

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.
