Mud Hut

Well , i thought that was it . No blog for tonight's entry , but who knows ... ? There's a computer at the reception counter at the resort . So , here i am , blogging , leaving the gang alone over at the pit , struggling for survival .

Its very hard to type here , especially the spacing ... So , bear with it , WeiKang .

So , i woke up kinda late , expecting the meeting at to be slightly later than the original planned time . Mom told me that we'll be able to make it in time . But i doubted so , because ... we're already short of time , and we've to eat with uncle , and i havent gotten the drinks yet .

I feel like changing my computer ... but the other one aint working . We tried earlier ...

Well , anyway , brought Dickshen along ... and we went to eat . Its horrible , because they ate turtle soup . I dun like eating such weird creatures ... it makes me sick , and i dont think its such a good idea too . Mom was having some problems parking her car because there's one very inconsiderate driver , who parked his car along the road , meaning ... not in the lot . So , Mom was having difficulties trying to park her car , while the traffic has to flow and the other cars behind has to move on . So , there was one taxi which stopped , and thought that Mom wanted to leave the lot . So , all the car stopped behind the taxi , and waited for my Mom to move . She did move , but her purpose was to park the car , not to leave . So , the driver came out , and told my Mom that its alright to come out ... Like as if she doesnt know . The whole crowd at the coffeeshop was like an audience , watching Mom park her car . So , there was another lady who scolded Mom for parking too out . Sure , she was out , but she was trying to park in ! Stupid fuck ! And anyway , its not Mom's fault at all ... thanks to that inconsiderate old uncle driver who parked his car out of the lot . Dumb fuck ! Irritating people ... Anyway , Mom's parking today was bad . Really bad . She took so long to get her car into the lot . But , she was adamant ... and she came out of the car feeling angry ... and she told me that everybody is blind ! Kinda true ...

After eating ... its just ten minutes before 1 pm , our meeting time . So , i made a call ... and SiHan told me that he was already there ... with Mark . Samuel would be late , and that'll mean , really late . So , i took my time ... but rushing Mom to go buy the drinks with me .

So , we went NTUC , and i bought around 8 big bottles of drinks , and it cost me around $13 . I mixed around , and i bought mostly soft drinks , just one or two tea and stuff . I was in the queue , and waiting for my time to pay the money of the drinks . But , who knows ... ? Im either super slim , or im invisible . These old ladies came into my line , right infront of me . And , when im in a rush , im easily pissed . So , there i was ... staring at their white heads , with red burning across my face . I looked at them in disgust ... and i quickly took my basket and put it on the counter . The lady went ahead , and another went for another shorter lane . U know , these are human instincts ... look around the lanes , and see how many people , and next ... see what they're buying . So , there was this Indian man , and he was ready to pay for his purchase . But , he got this $30 voucher , and he needed 50 cents more to completed that amount . Reasonably , he went to find something which cost 50 cents . So , he held he line , and everybody waited for him ... Idiotic ... ? No , realistic human .

After paying , i went off ... carrying me super heavy drinks , around 8 kg in total , because its all a litre each ... i think . So , i got into the car , and i complained to Mom , and she didnt say anything . So , she got me to HaborFront Cetre , and i dropped off . Headed towards the information counter , and this Malay lady was very rude ... she was on the phone , holding on to a line , and since she's free ... she could answer me , but she didnt . She told me to wait . So , she gave me this weird face when she told me where the ColdStorage was . So , i scolded her back . Not really scold , but just a very pathetic statement .

Saw SiHan in his light blue shirt , standing there , calling somebody ... and watching over a hell lot of food . I dunno what was that , but after i saw him ... i took a rest by putting down those heavy drinks . So , Mark came later ... and we started talking ... about silly things and stuff . Shortly , QingLun and HuiQi came . We talked about the silly mutants of the movie ... and stuff ... and we waited for very long , for Samuel . Before he arrive , Laurel came ... and so , we took a seat and accompanied Mark for lunch . His lunch . Well , the waitress was horrible . So , nevermind ... i gave her a weird face before we left ... when Mark was paying for his food .

Samuel came by a cab . He should take the MRT down , cheaper , then we hail a cab from the centre itself . But well , we got there fast ... and Laurel , SiHan , Samuel and i took the cab in , to the resort . The driver was nice , talkative and of course ... entertaining ... ? We paid $2 each for the entrance fee ... and we found our resort shortly after . So , we heard that its hut . Thankfully , its not a mud hut . But sure enough , Samuel's right ... its super small .

Nobody wanted to take the chicken wings , because its wet . And well , i carried some light stuffs , or quite heavy ... but cannot be compared to Laurel , he took all the heavier loads . We went to the receptionist , and we got our keys . Its the small brown hut that i saw when we drove in !

Goodness ...

Its really great . Its cozy , small and very ... comfortable . Perfect love nest for couples , and for hobbits . So , its dark , damp and ... its warm . Totally perfect for a lovely overnight stay !

The light was on , but we couldnt see no shit . Its dark ... really dark . And soon , Evan and Jwen came . They paid the $10 first ... and for that , at least now we've a bit of some money . SiHan spent around $98 for this outing . For me , i spent around $23 , because i paid $10 for the BBQ pit . And for Samuel , he spent around $10 already , other than the food that his parents paid for . So , we're broke . Especially our dear , SiHan .

We were slacking in the room ... wondering where to go . Samuel wanted to get out of the hut eagerly , but SiHan , Laurel and i stayed in the room ... relaxing ... and chilling down . So , after the 2 girls came , we went to the beach . I called YongRui , and told him to bring some foils and boxes . Thanks to him , he brought some later , during the evening .

So , saw many of them coming ... after we stood around in the sand for a while . We were walking and sitting at the jetty , or so thats what SiHan calls it . Its actually just a small fragment of this bridge , sticking out towards the sea . So ... anyway , we sat around , and Samuel was busy taking pictures ... I brought along my small new bag , and it was kinda handy . It contained everybody's wallets and handphones . Soon , we got ourselves really tired ... when someone suggested to play this catching game . So , Jwen and Laurel became the catchers , and we ran around the beach ... like some mad cows . Do cows run ? Anyway , so ... we got really tired after running under the hot sun . Shaun went into the sea , and the rest went to take a break under the shelter of the life guard's tower . I was sitting there , trying to get away the sand from my eyes and my hands . Rubbing my eyes all over , and feeling a great deal of discomfort . Anyway , we did nothing much ... and we just slacked around . Shaun got back on land , and we took a group picture , with the kind life guard as our photographer . So , did anybody drown when he took the pictures for us ?

Many weird poses , and many weird pictures . There was this stone , and everybody got onto it , slowly ... with persuation . They first got up , and i didnt want to ... soon , they started calling my name , and well ... i got up . The last one was ... Felicia . She didnt wanna go up the rock at all . Its very hot up there . So , some nice Indians took the pictures for us . I took quite a while to realise that im parched ... and i need to get rid of that thirst . SiHan , Laurel and i went to this shop nearby , and got ourselves a drink . Its expensive , i know . Laurel didnt wanna spend , so ... i gave him some of my drink .

Im hungry now , and they are all having fun , i suppose , at the BBQ pit , eating . So , i think i'll go there and eat first . I'll be back to finish up the blog entry tonight , later . So come back again .

Got Through It

Just came home from Malaysia , and that explains the late entry .

I woke up as usual , and i thought it was already 4 pm , but well ... it was only 2 pm . So , lucky me , i got up and did my usual stuff ... then i headed to SengKang . Today is Dad's birthday , and quite a few will turn up ... so , i'd better get myself there earlier , in case people start to grumble at me again ... saying that i dun visit my Dad . Well , if uve so much time to commit , then i dun see why u aint visiting Dad as often as i do . So , dun talk so much , and dun ask me to come or go down more often . Im trying my best already . If thats not good enough , then screw u .

So , Mom fetched me to SengKang , and that saved my wasted time in the bus . So Dickshen was in the car , making a hell lot of noise . I couldnt even listen to my own music , and so ... i was fed up , and i shouted at him when he complained . He was screaming around ... beating me , and talking as loud as a loudspeaker . I was angry , i shouted once , then i stopped . It shocked Mom and him , then i flicked his ear , really hard . He cried .

I got off the car ... and i walked towards his place . Well , i dunno his address and stuff , i only know one thing , and thats how to go there . So , other than that , dun ask me . Mom always think that im not telling her his address is because that i dun want her to disturb him or something . So , she'll question me like as if im some kinda culprit . Honestly , stop that , i really dunno . So , today i pointed out to her where Dad is staying . Happy ?

Dad was in the hall , watching the DVD on the girl who saw Jesus . Remember ? We had 2 visitors , from church , i guess ... And well , they bought some currypuffs , and well ... there're really nice . She was singing to Dad , and i sat there ... and watched the boring DVD . All the miracle healing ... really slammed a chunk of doubt in my head . The way they talked , like its all so ... fake ... and well ... i dunno ! So , anyway , before they left , Dorothy came . She brought a Guitar too ... so , i figured that there'll be some praise and worship . Again , normal cell group craps .

Brings me back to my old memory setting of Vivien's house . Everybody's cramped up , sitting on the floor ... Then , there i was , with Wilson and Bob , sitting there , in an uncomfortable position , singing . Vivien , and Benny on the bed , or somethines HuiErl . Well , anyway , good thing that its all over . Like a nightmare , that refreshes itself , trapped in time . So now , its gone . Im happy . Life goes on for me ...

Anyway , Bob stayed on . Wilson left with me , if im not wrong . Anyway , its a bad decision to stay . I think , people are blind there . Church without walls , im sure . Literally .

So , nevermind about that . So , people came . Dad was tired , so we pushed him back to bed . We watched a movie then ... and its funny . Amanda borrowed a movie from me . And to think of it , ive quite a few with other people . Like Andy and Richard . When can i have it back ? Though i dun watch it at home anymore , but still ... i'll feel more comfortable with my things back into where it belongs . That'll include my dear , money .

Dad got out after a while , and he wanted us to stop watching the movie , another one . So , we did . And shortly , we brought out the cake . Jane started singing first . Without any warning ... and just like that , we started singing . Horrible ! Out of tune , and not together . Dorothy should've taken out her Guitar , but i dunno ... maybe she was caught off guard . Anyway , Maria and Gloria , my second auntie , went to cut the cake . And while doing so , Yong came forward ... and gave out this few lyrics . Dorothy played the Guitar , and we all sang together .

Its badly out of tune . Good thing Christoven wasnt there . But well , of course , the heart matters the most . But still , to me , i felt that its horrible . Maria then told me that the chord indications are all there , so i should know . I know , but well ... everybody is singing wrongly , so what can i do ?

I blew the candles for him , and i held his hands and we cut the cake together . I blew the candles , so ... am i getting old ? Anyway , i ate a piece , because its chocolate , if it wasnt ... i wouldnt touch even a single bit . U know , i dun fancy cakes . And , i dun really like them either . So , that was it ... the celebration . A short one . Very short one .

Dad went back to bed . Everybody left after talking and hanging around . Amanda and i accompanied Dad with his journey to dreamland . Jane went to bath . So , Dad was pulling off something on his nose , and he told Amanda to take it off for him . There was nothing , other than the tube , that's inserted through his nose to his stomach , remember ? So , there was tape on it , to keep it there . And well , i guess its uncomfortable . So , he kept plucking . Amanda told him there's nothing . And i did something very bad , i teased him ... by pulling off nothing , and telling him ... its gone . Fuck ! Im becoming Jane , treating him like a child . Nevermind , i think he knows .

Fuck ! Big mistake .

By the way , Dad is happy that he got through his birthday , thus making him 51 years old . Too young to die , i know . But well ...

Anyway , Mom fetched me from SengKang , and we , together with Kim , went to Malaysia for supper . My first purpose is of course , not to eat , but to buy DVDs home . Its been quite a long period when Mom dun have a car . It felt great , but ... listening to Dickshen's song over and over again made me sick . I changed the song , and he continued shouting ... Cant help it , but to scold him , again . I know , im pampered . In the car , i listen to what i want ! And i'll keep it that way .

So ... huge jam , and other than that , we couldnt finish it . Im joking . I meant , traffic . So , it took us quite a while to get to Malaysia .

I went into the shop , and Mom ordered food outside . I chose around 12 DVDs , and i booked them . After eating , i went in again ... and Mom told me to buy only 6 , so ... i took 6 out of the plastic bag . Anyway , they aint very clear either , because its new . So , i paid , and i left the shop , feeling ... elated and excited .

Drove out of Malaysia , and was so grateful for nothing that there was no jam . The journey was smooth ... and till we got to the custom . We saw this car getting checked like hell . And i was kinda nervous , but well ... i knew it , we're safe . U know how ? Because im here blogging ! Anyway , the policeman didnt do anything , unlike the other hardworking one on another lane , he was busy checking high and low in another car . I believe the old folk , Kim , and the baby , Dickshen , helped create this beautiful image of a nice innocent family . Who knows ? Kim smokes heavy drugs , Dickshen smuggles illegal drugs and i , sell pirated DVDs in Singapore .

Im , of course and obviously , joking .

So ... im going to watch some of it before i sleep . Or , i dun even plan to !

Tomorrow im going to Sentosa with my classmates . So exciting ... ? A BBQ night . Anyway , i've to buy drinks . I hope people who doesnt do anything , but just pay , would not complain . If they do , im going to get pissed and i'll go mad . Anyway , why all these ? It should be a happy event . So , thanks to Samuel , for organising it . And SiHan to getting the food with Samuel . I couldnt go , because i've other things to commit to . So , i'll get the drinks tomorrow .

Hopefully , it'll be good . Anyway , i dun think i'll be able to blog tomorrow . Because , i'll be staying overnight at Sentosa . Small island , but yet , interesting .

I wanna lie there on the beach , like an abandoned dead body . I'll rot away under the sun , and get myself washed away by the currents ... How sweet .

Express To Impress , Music To Politics

Sent Dedric and Kenny off . Dedric took the cab home , while Kenny took the bus opposite .

Woke up kinda late , but was early , though late , for practice . Nobody was there , and i was shocked . Maybe there aint any practice ... but why shouldnt i be informed ? Well , so , things went off well . Practices , like usual ones . Only a few came , and there wasnt any Ruan at all , other than Kenny , who played the DaRuan . So , MiYan was feeling kinda down , because the piece is kinda difficult . I must admit , its the counting parts ... and well , the SanXian has some other tunings , so ... we couldnt figure which one to use . JiaJin got a really cool haircut . Its so unlike him , but surely ... a first step to looking better . YiLeng is out still in France , and how sweet isit ... ? JiaJin is going over to find her ! Its so lovely . Well , he said that its kinda expensive , maybe already around $2000 plus .

During the practice , i couldnt figure the triplets . Im sure there's another way of counting it . But , Mike , our dear conductor , has an accurate of counting . He is always good in teaching stuffs like that ... u know , orchestral difficulties . But , i couldnt get it still .

Its funny , im talking to YouGuo now . He is nudging me , like usual .

Anyway , forget about the playing . After practice , we went to eat . MiYan , JiaJin , Kenny , Sharon , Jasmine and i . ChaiXia went for some project work . No , she didnt even come for practice today . So , Kenny was asking JiaJin about YiLeng . Well , nice of her to think of us though she is over at France . I hope she's doing well there . Eat more .

My room stinks . Tell u why later ...

So , JiaJin said that MDC is having some show today at ToaPayoh . So , we went over to take a look . MiYan went off to meet her mother . Sharon and Jasmine went off to get Sharon a new pair of shoes . Why ? Obviously , because it snapped . We asked JiaJin out ... and well , he said he wanna go home . Again ! When YiLeng is around , they go home . And now , still go home ! So funny ... So , Kenny and i pulled him along to ToaPayoh . So , their show is at 5 pm . We took the bus around 3 pm , so we had alot of time walking around .

Firstly , we needed to know which direction was it for bus 88 to go towards ToaPayoh . So , there was this bus , saying that it goes to ToaPayoh , and its bus 73 , i think . So , we saw it ... and figured that it must be the bus-stop that the bus stopped at . And so we walked towards it ... Only smart people like JiaJin would say ... bus 73 goes ToaPayoh and we can take that bus . Funny shit ! Kenny and i only cared about the direction ... and didnt realise that we could take bus 73 too . We're just too ... simple .

In the bus , its fun talking to JiaJin . Well , for 2 years ... this is the first time i went out with JiaJin . So , he is not that boring after all ! Im joking ... Just that , he is fun , but we seldom really talk much ... Anyway , when we're at ToaPayoh , we found the stage shortly , but it wasnt their show yet . So , we've lots of time to stall .

We went walking around , and hunting for Kenny's ear piece . So , there was this funny shop that specialises in selling second hand phones . Dun u think it sounds weird ... ? Anyway , we stopped over and found ourselves kinda lost . So , we went to this shopping mall , or not , i dunno what u actually call it ... but its kinda similar to the one in AngMoKio . Anyway , i bought carrot cake . Its cheap , and its tasty and filling .

Finally , we went over to the stage to meet WeiFeng . Andy said that he was in KBox , singing some oldies . Possible . Most likely ! So , we saw him . And for the first time after so long . He told me that ive grown slimmer . And of course , im happy ! But well , questionable because he've not seen me for so long ... Its kinda possible that he already forgot how i look like . So , we also saw Louis ... and he was telling us about this guy ... very handsome and stuff . Well , dun mind him . So we saw him , and we're like ... nevermind . Well , i dunno how to judge how a guy look , but JiaJin said that he's fine .

I just shat . I think its the food ...

Anyway , so we watched this stupid performance by the army officers , throwing and swinging their guns . I dunno , but they told me that its good . Right ... I dun think so . Anyway , Kenny was so tired ... We ate ice-cream at McDonalds before that , WeiFeng gave me this voucher , $2 off . And so , i treated JiaJin ice-cream . Kenny paid for his own . So , as usual ... WeiFend , the humour himself . So , we chatted till their performance .

It was great . Watching them , while refreshing my memory of my little short period with MDC . The people there were funny , and well ... playing with them was fun . But still , i cannot forget the horrible mistakes ive made before . Its so ... unforgivable , because its so simple . Inexcusable errors ...

Anyway , so after their performance . We went to talk abit more before we left . The Ruans were too soft , in fact , inaudible . Percussion was irritating . Andy was then telling us about his problems on stage and stuff . Well , after that , we left .

Kenny came over to my place , and he called Dedric over . JiaJin took the MRT with us , and he went home .

There was nothing to do , so ... we watched another repeated movie , again . I fell asleep ... and in the end , they woke me up . Dedric was complaining , and he needed to eat . But we stayed on ... and Kenny helped me with my computer . And he chatted with WeiFeng in my disguise . Anyway , we found many ... rubbish in my computer , and he helped me with it . So , i cleared it . But well , i dun like to remove my cookies . I find them ... delicious .

So , they took turns ... and had a ride with Dickshen . Switching off and on my lights ... and im sure it'll explode if they continued to do so . I took my bag , and we went downstairs to eat . Shared the lift with Mom , and they saw how horrible my Mom is . But , its funny shit ! So , anyway ... we ate ... and we talked .

Im not going to disclose what we've said . But well , in summary ... its criticism towards politics .

So , i play my Pipa , and my love for music lies in music alone , and not politics ... because , i play to express ... and not totally to impress . Nothing more to add on , but read it again , for the politicians of music . Look , leave me alone , as my shirt says .

Symptom

Just got home from SengKang . Well , Dad's birthday is coming ... and on Monday , i dun think i'll be able to go buy food with Samuel and gang . So , sorry about that . Im thinking , what to get him ... ?

Im listening to some old Pipa CDs that i have . Some old songs , refreshing my head out of those modern pieces that ive heard too often . At least , now im feeling myself back into my roots . Pipa , actually i would see as a rather versatile instrument , other than the YangQin . Look , its much older than the other Western instruments , but it took only a period of roughly 50 years to develop into what we're hearing today . Meaning , Chinese music is progressing fast . Till now , ive not heard much of the other ethnical instruments on the rise . I'll wanna compose something modern and new for something old . Like almost an old vintage car in the middle of the busy city roads ...

So , i stayed home from morning till evening , before heading to SengKang . What was i doing ? Nothing . I was playing for merely a few games ... and they werent even completed , many people left in the middle of the games and stuff . I hate that . They spoil my fun ! So that was it , i left the games ... and i proceeded on with my composition , which i thought should be completed already . But who knows ... ? I think im going to continue it ... making it slightly longer .

I only bought one boxers , not 2 . And remember the new shirts i bought yesterday ? I tried it on . I wore it to SengKang . Mom didnt ask me where i got the shirt from , surprisingly . And so , i wore it out ... and it has some very captivating words on it .

Dad had something stuck to his nose . The doctors came over recently , and they inserted this tube through his nose into his stomach . And the drew out some blood ... Well , Dad's stomach is bleeding . No wonder he doesnt eat , or he feels uncomfortable . Thats also the reason that led to his lung infection . His food went into his lungs , and they got infected . Thus , he is currently experiencing some difficulties with his breathing .

Now im listening to this piece which ChaiXia challenged me to play . Its impossible , and an applause for those who'd performed it . Even the professionals have problems playing it ... Well , i dunno . I'll suggest that to YanYu . I bet she'll turn me down .

Anyway , i watched some movies with Amanda , again . And well , Jane was about to cry when i was there , she was sad about Dad's condition . I think she's better now . Many people came , including her family and Dorothy's . Yong was there , and he told me about my shirt . Well , i know . I think i shouldnt wear it when im not in the mood . If im feeling kinda down or angry , then maybe i'll wear it . Anyway , so ... i left around the time that i should .

Ran to the bus-stop because i saw a bus arriving ... so , i thought it was mine . But who knows , when im around there , its actually an empty bus , departing for the depot . So , i took my time ... and i waited for my bus .

Well , Mom came to fetch me from at the bus-stop . So , i got home , and i just ate some finger food . Today , uncle made some noodles . I dunno why , its nice ... but it upset my stomach many times . I went to the toilet numerous times ... during the afternoon . Well , i guess maybe its because its cold . Like yesterday , the same noodles ... but only a little left , and it was cold . Well ... Mom is suspecting that im suffering the same disease as Dad . One of the symptom is going to the toilet straight after eating . Honestly , that only happens that home . Outside , i dun go toilet that often . So ... i guess its the noodles . Mom insisted that i should go see a doctor . Then again , i told her the same old thing ... only if she goes with me .

U know , like life . When u get a symtom of something , and u lie to urself or ... u choose not to believe in it , u carry on with ur normal routines . Like me , i actually have quite few different symptom of different things . I think im quite sickly , but i just dun show . Unlike somebody who fake her illness ... and used it as some advantage to gain sympathy . Pathetic . Well , i dunno . I hope im well ... and as so i hope for Dad ...

Im so bored . And there's nothing for me to talk about ...

So , thats it for today . Short and sweet ... Right .

Goodnight , Dad .

Perfect Bitch

Before i continue with my new composition , which is more based on Japanese melodies and stuff ... Let me tell u about my interesting trip to school today . And again , nothing surprise , just another boring trip .

Woke up late , and uncle was waiting ... and he was quite angry . Well , nevermind , think he is already used to it . So , Mom fetched me down to school today . After eating , we went over to Eunos , to get her new car ! Remember ? She sold her car , and now she's getting a new one . Sadly , the same model , but different colour . Mom regretted it , as i could tell from the way she was complaining in the building . There were many cars on display , and she went around trying them out ... and telling me how beautiful and nice they are . But well , i dun like machines , remember ? So , no interest for cars ... thanks ... unlike YiChun or HeJia . Well , so ... i went around chasing after Dickshen , who was also busy trying out cars , and closing the doors of the cars . How kind . Right ?

So , the lady was saying that Mom is the only customer who'd ever looked so unhappy to collect her car . That sounded funny . So , we got into the car , and she was complaining about the size ... and the rubber ... and the colour ... Well , almost everything . The lady was nice , and she was very friendly . Mom talked to her like they've known each other for ages . The lady was surprised when she knew that im her child ... and so does everyone else in the world . They'll usually go like ... i thought ur child was only five ! And ... look at him , he is so big already ! Right . Go look at the other kids out there ... please ...

Got into the car , and she was complaining about the sound of the engines . Well , i dun get it . Whats there to complain about ... ? Dickshen spat on me , and i was so furious , i killed him ! Well , good news , Dickshen will be leaving us very soon . He'll be heading back to Malaysia . I heard this from Mom , just like when she told me 2 years ago that grandma and gang will be moving out soon .

I recieved a shocking message from Christoven this morning . And so , i got down to school to see him , eagerly . I couldnt believe it ! I still cannot believe it ... Its amazing . Thanks Christoven . I'll tell u guys later about it ...

So , SiHan was in school , in the computer lab . So , i played the Piano for Andy , and SiHan came in later , and he wanted to go eat .

I did the test that SiHan was telling me about . And well , its a stupid test that tells u how much u are worth . So , SiHan is worth $1700000 . Well , Christoven is worth 1800000 plus . For me ... ? Im doing it now ... so i'll tell u guys later .

I followed SiHan to pay his fees . Well , he failed harmony , and same goes to some of our dear classmates . So , he has to pay this amount , to get to do the exam again . So , we were lining up , and i was telling him the interesting story of the movie that Christoven and i watched yesterday . He was asking about it , and i think he'll wanna watch it in the cinema . Im going to buy the DVD , for sure !

Anyway , the results are out . Im worth $1851138 . I think thats higher than u , SiHan ! Who wanna buy me ? I know why ! Because many parts of the pig can be eaten . The tongue , worth quite a sum , and the brain ... and same goes to all the intestines . The skin can be sold too ... with other things like ... the meat , of different parts of the pig . No wonder ... ?

I accompanied him to take his snack at SunShine . After which , i went back to school ... and taught Andy the piece i always play . Well , it was tiring ... because i composed it , and i play it more than often ... so , i would expect more of my own style inside . Kinda lame right ? So , Christoven was practicing ... and once again , i took someone's Pipa and went to join him . I think its LiuYan's .

YanYu is asking me when im going to back for lessons . Im kinda guilty that i havent contacted her ever since the exams ended . I thanked her , and she congratulated me for my results . I hope she is happy this time .

SiHan didnt wanna go home after dinner . We ate chicken . Sarah , HuiQi , Christoven , SiHan and i , we shared a meal together , and its $26 . I paid for Christoven because he did the ring for me . What ring ? Now , go try refreshing that rusty brain . Remember there was an entry long ago about this ring that my father has ... ? I somehow dismembered it , right ? So , i was doing it for months , and my friends tried for minutes . Finally , i found the person who could do it ! Yesterday during the conversation in the cafe while waiting for the movie , i gave Christoven the ring . To occupy his time , and to refrain him from practicing too much . Im so nice . Anyway , so ... he completed it , and he gave it to me today , well done . I was so surprised ! Nobody could do it ! My goodness ... he is good at this maybe . He has the patience ... unlike me . So , he did the ring , and i treated him to a meal .

I took the bus towards SengKang , with the ring on my finger , with Samuel and SiHan . We missed one bus , because Samuel wanted to buy some food . Amanda called me when i was having dinner , and she told me that Dad's having some breathing difficulties . Well , just in time , i was going down .

So , we chatted in the bus , about the Sentosa chalet . Im so glad its finally decided . But well , Samuel told me to pay an amount first for the food . Im more than willing ... but of course , i hope i'll get my rightful amount of money back . So , its $10 for per person . And i think thats way too cheap already . For the fun , i hope the NAFA peeps wont mind . Its going to be great , i can tell ! Samuel , SiHan and i were excited about it , or maybe not . Our past experiences tell us that things aint that great last time . Think about it , all the trouble . For me , ACS still owe me $88 for the food for the camp the other time . And well , fuck , some people just wouldnt wanna pay up . Thanks alot , HwaChuan , u were the one telling me all sort of nonsense ... to cover up for the amount . Whateva , fuck .

Im going to vent now . Im going to fucking vent now !

Look , i know im always lending people money , because they are my friends . But , just because of that , u took my willingness as an advantage to ur stupid camp . ACS , u guys really made use of me really well . Thanks God that i didnt lend YiChun $140 for his stupid toy car . But well , also thanks to God that i didnt lend my auntie money . She is another fucking waste . She is the waste , herself . She takes drugs . Fuck ! So , now , for those who still owe me money . Or not really owe ... but just ... like ... i lent money to ... remember , pay me wheneva u can . Its never nice for me to ask for money , i'll feel bad . If ur like Christoven or SiHan , who would actually honestly and automatically give some money back to me , its fine . I think , i wont lend anyone any money anymore . It rhymes . So , dun blame me , its actually good for everyone .

Im verbally conservative . Right ?

At the stop itself , i was sleeping then , and i heard someone call my name . Its shocking . I thought maybe an angel of some sort . It was calling my name , and i heard it . So , i woke up , and i found out ... its too late . So , i went down , and went over to the market , and bought myself 2 shirts . It was selling for $15 each . It was way too expensive . So i told him to charge me cheaper ... and its the first time im bargaining . So , i didnt care whateva amount he gave me , i bought it . So , he gave me $2 off , for 2 shirts . $28 . The shirts are kinda cool ... i'll wear it when im a bad mood someday .

Anyway , Dad was happy to see the ring . And i told him about it , he smiled . I thought he'll call me to keep it , but he didnt ... so , i took a piece of paper and rolled it up . I stuck the ring there , and i let it rest on his table . I was sleepy , and i was sleeping in the hall . Jane was telling me that the coming Monday would be his birthday , and hopefully he can survive till then . What the fucking fuck ? Bloody of course he can ! What the hell ? What are u saying ? Are u cursing Dad ? U so called Christian , with all ur fake lies and fake concerns ! I hate u ! I hope ur vagina rot of moss and let the fleas bite it till it soar ! Then what ? Then i curse u that it'll bleed all day and it'll be infection will kill u ! U bloody bitch !

Anyway , rest well , Dad .

I took a bus home . I was talking to myself again ... and its mostly like the above , curses .

Im tired , and im kinda sleepy . Last night i was talking over the phone with Klein and YongHao . And , they are ... sick .

Sorry for not being about to join u guys , Klein . Im a busy man , or boy .

Im going to go on with my composition . So , happy reading . Anyway , the counter has gone down . The other time , there was about 70 plus . But now , its merely around 30 . So , im glad .

Anyway , i approached SiHan , and he told me about yesterday . So , it wasnt anything to do with me , and i was relieved . Guess what , i cried in the bus for nothing ! So , i was worrying myself ... and thinking far ... too much . So , its just a small thing . Well , just give in and stuff , thats what friends are for , to control u of not getting what u want all the time . Dun u think its good as to control urself ... ? So , some likes cheese ... and some prefers chilli ... And guess what ? I dunno what im talking about !

Dun let words spread . Contain it , and control it . It shall not leave this square thing ... As u know , some are perfect pitch , and some ... perfect bitch . They will gossip and they'll feed on ur words , and they'll manipulate with them . Sooner or later , ur words are going to become poison , decayed . And they'll get into the ears of the public , or the circle . So , watch out .

Freezing Point

Look who has come home ?

Its WeiKang , the joker who cannot take jokes . Irony , isnt it ?

Christoven is somebody who would not waste time , and he is rather straight forward . Im , somebody who aint more of facts , but im possibility , itself . He is fact , im possibility . Fact leaves no place for possibilities . So , he would stand in the lift , and hope that people would be quick ... and he'll want to close the lift door fast , and get on . For me , i'll open the door , and look out , asking ... anybody else ?

I think i need to shit . But before that , let me finish up fast for this entry , though i know ... its gonna be long .

Once again , another day filled up by Christoven , and his friend , Gabriel . He plays the Violin , and he'll be joining us when school starts .

I woke up late , and i told Christoven that i'll be late . And so , i dragged my time ... and i found myself later , as in really late . So , i brushed up , and i took my bag . Of course , some money ... So , Mom was asking me to wait ... But i told her , no .

I took the cab , and this driver was obviously sucking money out of me . So , he went one round in AngMoKio , before heading to the highway , where could be easily done so by turning left where i boarded the cab . SiHan tagged on the board about watching movie today , and its my favourite , 'X-men' . I was more than excited , so i told Christoven to join us . But well , he wanted to shop around with Gabriel . So , i thought we'll be going alone . And SiHan asked me to check the time slots , and so ... i turned to Cyril , who was sleeping then . So , i woke him up , and he was so nice ... he woke up and checked the movie time slots for me , and messaged me the time slots . So , Cathay ... ? I dunno what was that . But later , i recieved from SiHan that he'll be watching 'Da Vince Code' with Samuel and YinXuan . So , nevermind ... Christoven , Gabriel and i continued shopping .

I met them later , when i arrived . The driver didnt dare charge me for 50 cents , after looking at my terrible unfortunate face . So , i got back my fair money , and i walked over to meet them . They were shopping for clothings , and i dunno Gabriel , so ... the first impression was very awkward . Christoven was helping him with his clothings ... We ventured into almost every single shop , and found nothing quite pleasing . The good stuffs were either too expensive , or too ... overrated . Soon enough , all our stomachs were growling . Christoven suggested that we find somewhere to eat , and contemplate over the choices out of the plenty that we've seen . I joined them later , and i didnt see much ... so , i just sat there , and listened to Christoven's choices . We ate at KFC , and we ordered a family meal ... ? It was huge , with 8 pieces of chicken , and 4 drinks . I think thats the family meal ... right ? Anyway , to think of it , we've only 3 of us , and we're eating a 4 person's meal ... and its around $7 for each of us . If we eat the normal meal , its 2 pieces of chicken each , and 2 side orders , and a drink . Which , i think is more worth the money ! Really ... Anyway , the meal was good . We were licking our fingers , and talking with our mouths full .

Gabriel has quite a weird sense of humour . Cold , for first impression . But , cool , for next . Christoven was talking about going to Beach Road ... because Gabriel said that there's many things to see there . I thought , isnt that the place for the Thailand people ... ? Yes , it is .

I think i really need to shit , but nevermind .

After eating , we went to Esplanade , to return Christoven's scores . We took a walk towards Suntec , and we found ourselves shopping again . I mean , what else can we do ? Christoven took the guide , and we entered this optical shop again . I was trying on some spectacles , while they were trying on shades . They both looked good with different spectacles . I guess , im not meant for any of that thing . So , well ... i stuck with my normal invisible spectacle . Christoven was sitting there , with this old man , reluctantly attending to him . Gabriel was giving advices about the spectacles ... and i was there , quiet .

Before that , we bought Ribena , again . And , i also bought myself this bag . A very small one , which i think is meant for girls . But nevermind , im going to use it for my Pipa stuffs . U know , every Pipa player has this bag , meant to carry their strings , and Pipa stuffs ... So , thats going to be its use . The bag cost me $27 ... or so ... I cannot remember . So , anyway , i know , Mom is going to kill me .

In fact , she just scolded me . And she told me that guys dun carry that kinda bag . Well , its not me , its my wife , my Pipa , who is going to carry that .

There's nothing quite interesting in Suntec . So , we once again , headed back to MarinaSquare , and Gabriel went to buy his shirts , which he reserved . Well , the shirts were good for him , and sure was the money , $97 ... ? Anyway , after that , we took MRT down to Lavender , and we walked over to the place where Gabriel and Christoven told me about , Beach Road .

Does that place bring back any memory ? Remember ... Beach Hotel ? I bet some sure do , right Samuel ? And ... SiHan , yes ... ?

Anyway , its exactly there . We went into this old and warm place . We went to the third level , and found many small shops , filled with interesting ... stuffs ... There were shoes , shirts and ... many more . So , we were looking around , till i found boxers . Not ordinary ones . Its the one that YiChun has ! Ive found it ! He showed it to me and PuayKhoon back then when we went to his house ... to study ... And well , it was cute . So , its Spongebob Squarepants ... and well , i bought 2 , later in another shop . It was $6 in another shop , and i bought it for only $4 each . I bought in a total of 2 . And well , its good to make choices later ... thats what i always learn for Mom . But well , of course making choices doesnt mean about whether to cross or not to . Sometimes , its too late if u dun cross ... but sometimes , maybe ... its still early ! And for some of our classmates , sometimes ... maybe things aint working out well , but well ... maybe its not time yet ! But for some , time has already gone past them , many times . And well , its time to let things go .

Ate some pasta , and well ... not as impressive as in the papers . They ate beef noodles . Well , after eating . I still had the urge to watch the movie today . And well , as u know ... Christoven doesnt mind , but Gabriel has to go home to practice . So , we took a cab and hurried down to Cathay , the new shopping centre near our school . In the cab , i was listening to Christoven's recording of his own playing ... and my favourite , 'Diva Dance' . U know that song , sang by the blue alien diva in 'The Fifth Element' . Its an old movie , i know . Cant blame an old man for remembering such movies ...

So , we got there , and it was crowded . The tickets were all sold out . So , we headed to PlazaSing , and we sent Gabriel off . Thats where , i saw Klein , and Alex . But i didnt wave to them ... because we were in a rush . Actually , not .

Again , the tickets were sold out , but there were other slots , but at a much later time . So , we headed back to Cathay , and trust me ... it was tiring ! We bought the movie tickets for the earliest time slot , which was 9 pm . It was only 8 pm , and i thought it was already 9 , so ... i was buying the drinks . Then , Christoven saved my life , and told me it was only 8 pm ...

So , walked down , and went to drink . He ordered coffee ... and i took out my new bag , and i played with it . I can confirm now , that its for girls ! Because they gave this free mirror inside . I dun care ! I like it ! It fits all my Pipa stuffs ! So , nevermind . Dun give me that face when i bring it to school ...

The time was up , and i bought my drink , and we entered the cinema . It was ... not really crowded . Though on the computer screen , the lady gave us not much of a choice , but to sit all the way in front , on the first row . Sadly , or not ... we took it . I was so excited , and wondered if its gonna be as good as the trailers . Who knows ... ?

We wanted to move around , but the movie started . As usual , some couples must have fought and threw away the tickets . They didnt turn up , so there were empty seats ...

As usual , all the cool mutants , with their cool moves . And as usual ... Mystique doing all her unique moves . But the silly thing was quite shocking when some mutants actually died in the movie . So , Cyclops died early . He didnt even do much , other than to cry on screen . Jean died , remember ? Well , she came alive , and she killed him . So , who else ? Unexpectedly , Charles died . She killed him too . Magneto was there to watch him die ... And anyway , the movie focused on Storm and Wolverine , thats why their names were on the poster ... Anyway , more than ive expected ... the action was great ! I loved all the action parts . But well , the story aint that great ... and it was quite a disappointment . But im blind to it , as my interest for such a story lingers on . Jean died in the end , when Wolverine killed her . No wonder its the last movie ... everyone died . They changed the whole story , and well ... its like some genocide or pogrom . Everybody dies ... and stuff . Magneto lost his powers ... and in the end of the movie , he tried moving a metal piece of a chess unit . And it moved ... abit .

Thats the end ! The credits came up with a loud sudden start of some music . Lame , totally ! Its just like all the movies , its so cliched ! So ... that'll mean that it'll continue ... ? Just like when will Godzilla finally come back ... ? I dunno ! Its so ... lame !

So , we were tired , and we went home . Before so , i asked SiHan where he was . He , Samuel , YongRui and Mark was having some night walk over at FortCanning . So , i thought maybe i'll join them for a while , expecting some fun . So , i followed his instructions and took the lift up ... and next , i saw Samuel , and gang walking into the lift . They were heading home . Well , i dunno why , but it felt freezing cold .

They were quiet , not talking . Im not sure what must have happened , but i know there must be something wrong ! SiHan didnt wanna say . So , i watched their backs while i waited at the bus-stop . My mind was storming . Maybe its something ive said or done ? Well , im not sure . The worst thing was that i didnt bring my ear piece . So , i was thinking of it all the way .

Picturing NAFA as ACS . And damn ! It felt entirely so .

I cannot risk myself to think that maybe its some prank . But well , it felt kinda too real . Im not sure what happened ... but , maybe im not meant to know . Of course , i would hope that nothing is wrong .

Are things turning sour ? Or maybe it has always been like cheese ... ? If thats the case , no more cheese for me .

Music

So , do u still want me to talk about life ? Guess not . Everyday is life by its fraction ... so , just stay tuned .

Im staring at the mess infront of me now . Its my computer table , i know . But look at the mess piled up on each other ... Ive CDs , DVDs , VCDs , a bible ... some interesting books ... and all my song lyrics . And of course , a globe . So , its been kinda long since i last packed my table . Ive no idea where to start ... or even , how to arrange it . I need some professional help .

Listening to some Indian music that i just bought . Yes , its new age , and i will let u hear if u want to . But , next time , alright ? So , it says ...

Relax , open ur eyes and open ur senses . Breathe , slowly and deeply . Let ur breath be ur guide . Stay as u are , meditative and open to the world . The moment has come , let the journey begin . Come with me ... let ur senses flow with me . I am music . Welcome to the distant lands of oriental perfumes , incenses , colours , sounds , love and tenderness . Let me lead u to a place where u , a busy and pressured man , can recieve time on a silver platter . Savour it ! Here , each momeny is sacred , unique and eternal . Time unfolds , revealing the rhythm of life , its magic and mysteries . Forget the everyday concerns of science , technology and reason . Seek the voluptuous , partake in its festivities , sense the beauty and the respect for the one u encounter . Re-discover ur senses . Let urself go . The time has come to smell the roses . Their odour is not one of idleness , but the essence of quiet souls discovering life . An invitation to meditate in peace . Ur mind is weary and needs a rest . Listen to this music , and its poetic message . Life is rhythm , the cadence of its beat , the pulsation of its heart , for it is the sound of mother earth reaching out to u . It is the vibration that links ur life to the rest of the world . Emotion , sensation and trance . Where is the earth ? And heaven ? Discover the secret ! It is unveiled ... through the simple gesture of the swaying hip movement adorned with subtle , colourful sounds . Like silk over undulating bodies , intoxicated with music , as two insatiable lovers . Intensity , density , weightless playful sensuality . Music is the link between heaven and earth . Original matrix , mother , mistress , it captures time , occults space . It is the world , the finite and the infinite . Philosophical stone , it renders man his share of the sacred and the divine . Inhabited by music , man becomes music . Nothing else exists or matters next to this intimate , complete , passionate and carnal relationship . Now smell the new fragrance of ur skin . Perfumes from the orient , enbalming the streets , marketplaces , homes and feasts ... Penetrating each body , each being ! This is music , the voluptuous music of the senses . At the end of ur journey , u are magnified by the art of living and loving , uniting within ur body and soul , orient and occident , matter and spirit . Cherish in ur heart and soul this reminder of beauty and harmony , never hesitate to seek its re-discovery . Listen ! The final note has sounded . Replenishing u with the energy of life and love , the spell of the orient has been cast . Listen ! Happiness at last ! What alchemy ! Once the journey made , never , never shall life be the same !

So , what is music ? So ... ? If ur asking the same question as i am , please read again !

Anyway , i was at home . I woke up early , because Dickshen came into my room as usual , in the mornings , and waking me up . Well , the uncle came too . He always open my door , and never close it back . So , i hate that . Mom cooked , again , upon my request yesterday . So , i dun have to rush up and get downstairs to wait for uncle to come . U know , its torture , every morning when u wake up with ur sleepy eyes still in dreamland , while ur body is torturing itself to work . So , i got up , as late as possible , as i want . The food was alright . Loved the chicken .

Dickshen was naughty , or has always been like that . He wasnt eating ... so i was scolding him , and telling him to eat . He doesnt want to . He played with the spoon , and he hit the plates so hard ... it sounded like music to my ears ! My foot ! Not . So , i took his rice , and i ate it . Then , he screamed .

Im greedy . I know .

So , after lunch , i went online . I talked to a few people ... and i watched CelineDion again . Im hopeless ... i know . And i found other interesting videos . Last night , Cyril and i were fighting over some issues . He was insulting CelineDion , and so i didnt wanna hear him preach about other things . I was sending him CelineDion's videos ... and he said she sounded whiney . I dun think CelineDion ever sounded whiney to me . She is good . And so , we were argueing over such stupid issues . In the end , i told him ... i hate him . And he said he'll never wanna talk to me again . He was having a hard time with Charles too ... they were fighting too , and Charles was scolding him , and he defended back because of me . So touched . Whateva .

He called me , and asked where i was . He was so freaking rude ! He was cursing on the phone , and he was talking to his friend , Andrew . And please , the conversation sounded so vulgar and so ... rude . Ive never met anyone like Cyril before .

And so , i played games .

Went for dinner with my family , and after eating , i took a cab down to SengKang . I was lazy to take the bus , and i do not have concession . I think i'll get it when school starts . Afterall , i dun really travel much during the holidays . Can u believe it ? The holidays are ending ! NAFA peeps , we're starting school in 2 weeks time . Are u excited like i am ? Cant u tell how excited i am ? Its a new academic year ! Im so excited !

Right ...

Dad was feeling better , and he smiled . Yong was there reading the bible to him . And well , Jane once told me about this special service she attended in church , about this girl , called Ally , who saw Jesus . Well , Yong bought the DVD , and we watched it . Can i refuse ? I actually wanted to watch 'The Exorcism of Emily Rose' . But to think of it , the content aint that suitable ... Imagine the difference between the DVDs . Anyway , the DVD was super boring ! I slept so many times , and finding myself waking up to every clapping offering . It was so boring ... i hoped that time would fly ten times faster . Jane was sitting there ... watching and singing along to the songs . I was like ... stop that ! Yong and Jane had a talk at the kitchen . And i could hear that Yong is actually teaching Jane about some stuffs about Christianity , and the right ways . But well , she was stubborn , and i could tell that nothing has been knocked into her head . Amanda was dozing off ...

Well the clock struck , and i took my bag , and i went to take a last look at Dad . I left ... as quickly as possible .

Anyway , the cab driver just now was kinda nice . He was talking to me , about enjoying life . Well , he was busy asking me ... and i kept saying yes , yes and yes . If i dun , he'll ask again . What the hell ... i shouldnt have started the conversation . Sometimes , it pays to be too kind .

Christoven just dragged me into a conversation , and well somebody ... and him are talking and debating about fashion . Well , ive nothing to say . Im just ... watching ...

So , i just came home . And i saw u , again . Well , its impossible that u'll be reading my blog anyway . But , well , nice to see u again .

I sound sick .

So ... life ...

No .

I meant ...

What to do tomorrow ... ? Christoven is asking me out to meet him and his friend . And we're going shopping . Well ... im not sure about that . But well , i hope it'll be fun . But i promised Andy that i'll go to school too . So , i think i'll go both ways then .

Nothing much today . Just some stupid stuff on music that i read about . Its up there , uve just read it . Read again , go .

Goodnight .

Fart

Took a shower just now , and now im munching on some cold prawns . Where i get cold prawns ? Mom made prawn noodles today . I dunno why , dun ask me . So , i woke up at 4 pm , and i ate a bowl . Uncle came earlier , and he finished up already ... so he gave $50 to my Mom , and she didnt want it . And so , he said ... its for WeiKang . Since she has to take it , must well keep it for herself right ? So , thats what she did . She took my $50 !

So , i listened to the new CDs i bought . Its very nice ... and i think im going to stop wasting money on stupid CDs . Other than CelineDion and maybe a few more ... im going to buy CDs like ClaudeChalle's ... and other new age music . I think they are so much better ... and its inspiring and very relaxing . Thats it ! No more pop music . But , before that , im going to get CelineDion's latest French album first ! Looking back at those younger days , when i bought Vengaboys and stuff . Dun laugh yet . I listened to it , and i found techno quite interesting . There is always this phase when u find techno nice , and now , its passe . Though in fashion , but not in my fashion book . So , i bought many other trance music , and i lost most of them already . Around the age of 10 and so , i started listening to Boyzone and BritneySpears . U can laugh at the Britney part , but Boyzone is pretty fine , till now . So , ive heard of Westlife , but ive never bought their albums before . Till i dunno when , i bought one . And i thought , they're quite good . But , i lost the CD . I lost many CDs , and they're usually gone because i lend them to other people . But well , i found Westlife somewhere not very long ago . Maybe last year ... So , they've been missing for at least 2 years or 3 . Anyway , Mom bought one of CelineDion's CD , and she lost it . I bought it back a few days ago anyway . So , now ... ive a huge collection of different genres . But well , whats the point ? I only have 2 ears .

Played games , and nothing more . I think its time i practice . Look at my classmates , they practice so hard . If im ever like them , im sure i'll do good . But well , ive been a lazy musician , and even YanYu said that . She said that i must find time to practice more . Well , ive time , but just that the Pipa is in school . Maybe i should bring it home some day . But , it sounds horrible . I think the look of it , makes me sick ... and it'll stop me from practicing . Dedric said that he'll give me one ... and im still waiting . Hope that its not a joke ... It'll be my last hope .

Andy wants me back in school , so that he can hear my play the Piano .

Im still watching CelineDion on YouTube , and i found many other singers singing her song . Well , they're good in some ways , but bad in others . They can never be as good as CelineDion . But wait , whats with the comparing with CelineDion ? Its just a song , but CelineDion sang it , thats why ... ? True . This is the problem im reality . People like to compare ... and when they compare me with LiuDeHai , thats it , im dead . So , a song is a song , and the original singer doesnt matter at all . Just sing it the way u like it ... unless ur impersonating the origin . If not , its totally fine . But , people just like to compare ! And they'll never stop . Like last time , i used to tell Mom how good other people's mothers are ... and she'll tell me to go eat shit . Anyway , just imagine ... ? Other people are admiring u , and ur there comparing urself to someone better . So , dun compare , just look at urself , and be just how u are . But if u dun compare , where is the competition going to come from ? Its so complicating ... i know . But just look at things this way , if u compare with others , u wont be happy , but it motivates u . So , u wanna live a life filled with jealousy , competition ? Or just being happy , playing everyday and relaxed ? U decide , because ur future is urs .

I should go down to visit Dad , but i havent . Shit . Im a bad son .

Ur having fun , i see . Ur going out with people , and im here alone at home . Im always left out anyway ... Ive always try to include u , and others , into activities that i have ... but well , im tired of it . So ... just let things be then .

Anyway , i just went to the toilet to shit . And well , my cousin was sleeping there . My the other cousin , the one i fought with the other time . So , he is sleeping in my Mom's room , not mine . And im using my Mom's toilet ... So , i farted really loudly . And i forced myself to stop . U know , sometimes its so embarrassing to fart really loudly . I know , theres a method to stop that . Just relax ur anus crap muscle , and so the gas would come out smoothly by itself , instead of forcing it out . Well , i didnt know whether its gas or shit ... so i just forced it out . So , it was fart . Too late . U know , sometimes u feel like that in the public toilets too ... right ? U dun want the person next door to hear ur pissing sound , or ur farting sound ... even the shit dropping into the toilet bowl . So , u'll take a few pieces of toilet paper , and let it cover the water surface , when it'll make a soft landing for the shit . Its toilet manners !

Weird . Talking about this kinda stuff in the blog .

Anyway , i think i should get on with my game soon , because many are waiting . But before i go , i wanna talk about something else ... because today's entry is super short .

Lets talk about ... life .

Forget it !

High Society

Im blogging early today . Well , i just took a bath , because im having a bad hair day . U know , those days when u feel extremely uncomfortable and totally not urself ... ? Yes , i was feeling that today , and i aint very happy about it . I felt rather like a layer of dirty skin covering my being , and this very thick coat of oil caked on my face ... and also this damp feeling on top of my head , lurking in my hair . So , that was how i felt today . I must admit , maybe its because i havent slept since yesterday . I was playing games online with Cyril ... and well , he is currently experiencing some relationship problems . So , hang on dude .

Dickshen slept in my room . He was playing in my room ... then i told him to sleep . Amazingly , he slept , and pretty soundly too . Its not till only around dawn when he woke up and went outside ... i think he was feeling cold . So , Mom came into my room ... and i would expect her screaming at me , for playing all day long . Who knows ... ? She only asked about Dickshen ... and i was so prepared to bluff her that i just woke up . Right .

CelineDion brought me into my dreamland for an hour , before uncle came and fetch us for lunch . I was sleeping in the car , like some hibernating monster . It was only a 5 min ride , but ... i slept as if for hours . When we're there , the ShangHai restaurant was again , closed . But its opened actually , just without the lady there . Again , the old uncle inside cooked for us . He doesnt know how to cook actually ... but he knows how to prepare some simple dishes , thats all . I think the lady boss is really irresponsible . Talking about irresponsibility , i managed to pay up the money that i owe CSCO . Well , ive collected most of them already , just that ... Gary told me to pay him when ive collected all , but who knows ... its impossible to collect all , so ... must well just give what i have first , for safety . I dun want anymore misunderstanding that im a bad group leader . But wait , i am bad !

So , i was sleeping in the restaurant too . Mom didnt really scold me . I was quite ... amazed , but ... its also weird . She should scold me , i think im going to call her to scold me later . After lunch , uncle brought me down to school . Before heading towards NAFA , Mom went home first ... and they were quarrelling about some stupid issues on the ERPs . Well , after she alighted ... uncle told me that my Mom likes to quarrel . Now , dun u think its funny ? I bet u dun . But , sure , i find it so . I was introducing CelineDion to him , and he started talking about singers , and the past concerts which he has organised before . One of which was actually ... AndreaBocelli , the blind Tenor . So , actually he organised such concerts before . But he said it was a loss ... Why ? Because it was too expensive , the tickets , selling at around $500 . So , who would actually go listen to such an expensive voice ? For crazy people , maybe . For the rich , maybe . But he said that only the ministers and the important and rich people went , but only a few of them only knows how to really appreciate his singing . I was so carried away on telling him how great CelineDion is . And i thought him what a diva is ... and CelineDion would be the best example .

Guess ... its enough of her already . Anyway , so i met Christoven in school . And he was very disappointed with his results , but well ... sometimes we experience shit . But be blessed that we dun experience that all the time , and pray hard that it wont happen again . So , i met Edward , and i got my score from him . I thought it was all our scores , but ... i realised that its only our practical exam results .

So , i stared into it ... with awe , eyes wide opened and jaws locked ...I havent felt that happy before . But of course , its not good to be too happy . So , i got 82 for my exam . Last year , it was 75 . SiHan and Christoven didnt score quite well , but i believe that believing in urself is still the most important thing . Other's judging wont bring u anywhere . The truth is there , u know it , ur good , and ur good . Nobody can beat that faith . So , even how lousy u are , and how high u score , still ... u know deep inside , its just a facade , because u know , ur not good enough . Thats how i felt at that moment . So , should i rejoice ? Or should i not ? I chose not to .

Followed Christoven to Mt Elizabeth Hospital for his therapy . Before that , we had a drink near school . Well , he paid for the cab fare , and i just tagged along . We were talking ... and still , about CelineDion , and of course another singer whom i just knew of yesterday , her name is ... RegineVelasquez , a Phillipino singer , and trust me , she is good ! I heard her singing , and i thought ... almost better than CelineDion . She sang her song , and compared to CelineDion's , i would prefer RegineVelasquez's version ... because its sweeter and not too bold . Anyway , she was trained by her father when she was young . How ? By submerging into the sea till the throat , and she'll sing in the sea . She didnt eat any ice-cream only till the age of 15 . Imagine .

The room was small , and white . There were many people there . Christoven had this connection with the people there ... and its kinda nice , because its kinda homely there . The nurses were friendly , and they were busy . So , kinda easy to picture how boring Christoven would be if he were to come alone . Anyway , he goes for the therapy once a week , alone usually . So , we were talking ... and he was introducing me to his therapist . And i realised that Christoven likes to tell others that he is a musician . Kinda proud of it right ? For me , i dunno why , i just dun like to let people know . Especially worse when he told them that i play Pipa . So nice of Christoven , but ... i felt kinda weird , so ... its kinda funny actually . Thanks for the great time at the hospital ... and experiencing the wax thingi . He coated his hand with wax , and it'll dry ... and its super hot . I dipped my finger into it , once , and it felt new .

So he was hungry , and he needed to eat . But we didnt eat . We went to shit . He shat really fast , as for me , i didnt shit at all . I was cleaning the toilet for them . I cleaned the floor , because its all with piss ... so , i took paper and i cleaned it . I also cleaned the seat , because its also covered with piss . Damn bloody disgusting u know ? How stupid people pee ? I cannot imagine ! Can they not aim properly , or are they leaking ? Bad leak right ? No , i know ... they have a crooked penis .

Sorry for the explicit content .

Anyway , we went to watch a movie . So , till now ... we're still not very sure about some parts of the movie , 'Da Vince's Code' . Well , Christoven wanted to watch it . So , must well . We couldnt get to SiHan , and he didnt reply ... so , we went ahead . The movie was great ... and thrilling and very exciting . I bought this drink , which tasted like shit , so i left it there throughout the whole movie . Christoven and i were thrilled by the music , so intense and so dramatic . So , what is the show about ? I mentioned it before , and its almost all that . Some parts were gruesome ... and some parts were confusing ... It'll take Sharon , ChaiXia and Jasmine a week to understand the story ... i think . Its too hard to digest ... and every bit of information is very important in the plot . It has many endings ... and somehow , it will not end ! So , the movie is inspiring and very thrilling . I wont give it such a low review ... like those in the newspapers . I think it was great , and i'll expect more from the next few movies im anticipating .

ChaiXia is telling me to blog about that game we played in the arcade . One of which , is my favourite , some music game ... the same i played with QingLun the other day . Another was some intense game , which requires activating every part of ur body . Actually , just the hands . For me , i was kicking , yelling and bumping ChaiXia , in order to win . But still , i lost . We're supposed to hit this button , colour coded as red , blue and green . And we've to follow instructions during different rounds . Kinda stupid , i know .

Lets get on ...

After that , Christoven followed me to the toilet . And he has to go meet his friend for dinner , so he left first . So , i entered ThatCDShop , and that was it . I spent $90 on 2 CDs today . Look carefully , only 2 . Its those high class CDs ... u know ... those that cost around $50 by itself . So , i bought 2 . One of which , is released by the shop itself , with compilation of their own best selections . Another one is by ClaudeChalle . The same DJ for Buddha Bar Remix , and i saw many other albums too , by him . But i chose this one specially because this very nice lady in red recommended it to me . At first , i was only interested in the CD that they did ... but she was so enthusiastic . She recommended me CDs , one after another , without stopping . She was showing me so much hospitality , i didnt know how to reject her . So , i listened to all the CDs she got for me . And im amazed that she caught hold of my taste , a little . Im a wierd customer , seriously . Nobody has yet to understand my taste for CDs . They asked if i like Arabic music , i told them ... maybe a little . They asked if i like Chinese music , and i told them the same . So , they got me some Japanese folk songs , which i requested for ... but i didnt want it , because its not the type im searching for . I found CelineDion's DVD , and i thought i should buy , but the songs didnt appeal to me .

Now im listening to ClaudeChalle's new CD , and trust me , its good . Because , its expensive !

High society is whats going on here in Singapore . People pay for good quality , not quantity . So , instead of paying $20 for a fish , they pay like $80 for a slice of good quality fish . Its high society that we're living in ... dun u think so ? After looking around ... i thought , is Singapore really urbanised ? Or isit just globally urbanised in comparison to other unfortunate countries ... ?

So , i took a cab back , because i wasnt feeling quite well to take the bus home . And , im running out of cash in my card . I forgot to buy concession , so ... i paid quite alot yesterday when i took a bus back . Anyway , im feeling kinda bored now . Think im going to play some games first ...

Im hungry , my stomach is growling .

I almost lost this entry , thanks to some internet errors . If its lost , and ive to type it again , trust me , i'll blow my head and quit blogging !

Angelic Voice

Did i mention ? CelineDion is sixth on the chart for making the most money , as an artist . She makes around 76 million a year . And almost every night , her tickets are sold out for her live performance in LasVegas . I , so , admire her .

Just got home from a bus ride . Had dinner with ChaiXia at SengKang , and i bought 2 more CelineDion CDs , and one of JohnWilliam's recordings . Anyway , i have $20 discount , thanks to Jwen's card thingi .

U know what i think ? Actually , the world can just survive with just CelineDion singing all the songs available . But surely , i wouldnt wanna hear her sing rock . She'll dance ... with those big ugly dresses ...

Anyway , stop that already .

I went for CSCO today . Woke up late , as usual , but thanks to YouGuo for giving me a wake up call . So , he told me to get down . He didnt bring the scores , but he said that he'll bring it and put it in school . So exciting ... ? So , i went in the room , and i saw Sherwin's neighbour there . She plays the Pipa too ... and ive seen her before in one of her school's concert , the one which XiuHua performed a Ruan solo . Anyway , its kinda nice that its kinda balanced at least . YouGuo went through the piece with us . I think its rather easy after looking through the score , just some counting difficulties .

Yikki is inviting me to another round of minesweeper now . That day , we were playing the most exciting game ever , 25 points each . So ? Meaning , there's only one last mine to find before someone wins the game . So , we won each round , and its fair . Kinda fun ... So here goes ...

So , after eating at S11 , we went to the arcade to play . I ate some rice with squid ... and i ordered a plate of cockles to share . Sharon and ChaiXia were ... dreadful looking ... And i know , they must have enjoyed the meal ! My treat , u know . So , the stupid lady and the uncle took so long to prepare my food . I paid already , $8 , mind u ... And she gave me stingray . Tell me , when did i ever order fish ? I hate fish . The cockles were ... kinda too raw . Yes , i told them so , but i said ... exactly , a bit more than half raw . It took me almost forever to wait ... and they've already finished their food . So ... i was forcing them to eat the cockles . Sharon has to meet her mother at PasirRis at 4 pm , and ChaiXia has to meet her friend at SengKang at 4 pm too . For me , im free . Sharon has to eat at least 5 cockles , or else i wont tell her where to take her bus . So , she ate . In fact , more than that ... because , we played stupid games to finish up the cockles . U know what ? This is the last time im eating cockles like that . It brings sensation , but ... with so much sand in that shellfish crap ! No way . It tasted awful , with sandy stuff in ur mouth ... and u've to chew hard ... and u'll have to swallow that chunk of sand . Disgusting !

So , we played . Sharon went off because she couldnt wait anymore . ChaiXia and i played till 4 pm . And wait , what time was her appointment ? Its at 4 pm ! Too late , late . So , i was telling her to relax . She was saying that she've regretted playing . And i told her other excuses , which were obviously , stupid and invalid .

Im losing to Yikki ... i think .

I took bus 86 with her to SengKang , so nice of me right ? Save the praises . We were talking about performing a concerto next time with CSCO . Well , she told me to pick a very hard and more presentable concerto . The problem aint about a piece , its about how well u perform it , right ? If u play a high standard concerto , people will be awed . But , if u perform it badly , who will enjoy it ? No one . So , i would rather play something easier . She told me differently . She said that she'll rather play some of standard ... I cannot agree to that . Now people , what u think ?

She was so very late . And the bus turned the other direction , which i told her before , but she didnt believe . So , she had to walk ...

Dad was feeling better . He drank quite alot today . I took a nap with him , a short one . Then , i watched a movie with Amanda . The movie was ... silent ... because i dunno how to change its function . So , we were reading subtitles ... and listening to the sound effects , which were quite enough . Somehow , i felt kinda alright with that , even without the speaking voices . Had dinner there , Jane cooked . And it was normal , horrible .

Met ChaiXia again at the interchange , and we went for another round . I ordered beef tendons , which tasted really horrible . This is the last time im ordering that , unless im in Ajisen . She ordered Japanese food ... which looked much better , and cheaper by $2 . So , the lady gave me more meat , but i bet its some leftover meat . And she gave me a super big bowl of soup , which was ... cold . Anyway , i dared ChaiXia to eat it . I told her its some jelly stuff from the cow's eyes , and the fats that covers the brain of the cow .

Till now , im still thinking of that cute cow we saw in the zoo .

I think im winning Yikki for this round .

Anyway , there's nothing to talk about . Im listening to CelineDion's CD now ... Later , i'll be watching her performance from YouTube , again .

Im so in love .

So anyway , tomorrow we're suppose to get down to school to collect our results ? I hope its positive , which i doubt . So how do u feel about the judges for our practical exams ? I heard from YongRui that he didnt quite feel happy about it . As u guys know , he failed . And ... from what i heard , from him , its due to his dear judge . She is ... prejudice . But i dun really think so ... maybe what she said was all right , but just that she's being really too honest and strict . But to think of it , she has quite high standards . Christoven talked to me about this during the trip to Pulau Ubin . And well , i agree with him . YongRui , u should hear from Christoven .

But honestly , YongRui tried his best . He showed improvement in many areas , not just musically .

Dun u just feel like kissing me ? No need .

Celine Dion

So its over . Now , i'll look forward again to the next year . Sometimes , u dream so much for a day to come ... and when it does , it'll pass within a blink of an eye . Well , u can do nothing about time , can u ? So , dun bother buying it back , its worthless ... it'll just fly away again , its born to be free . So is he .

Just came home from a bus ride from SengKang . Was wondering if YouGuo will go for CSCO tomorrow , because i'll need to borrow some scores from him . DrKan wants me to do an analysis on a Chinese instrumental piece , and she'll want me to comment on the different motives . Well , Chinese music doesnt have much motives ... but just sections and melodies . Like u have said the other time , Chinese music doesnt have much compositional value . Well ... i'll try my best !

Woke up around 2 pm . Well , i thought today Mom will wake me up and uncle will come bring me out , depriving me of my sleep . But , today aint a weekday ! Anyway , so ... Mom bought back food . I was wondering why so many came to my blog this morning . It was a record of at 74 readers . So , isit the unpleasant smell from the rubbish in my blog that brought them here ?

Christoven was online , and he sent me quite a few links . He upgraded his MSN , so thankful . So , i sent him a clip on Vitas . Its been so long since i had this frenzy for Vitas . Now , im back to my old dear CelineDion . All the links he sent was about to do or with CelineDion . Some of which were stupid and funny ... and mostly were her live performances . So , there i was ... rotting and feasting my eyes on the computer screen .

I was watching CelineDion perform for hours . Christoven was shocked that i was still listening when i sent him links too . Honestly , i was singing along , and i was tearing when i saw her awesome performances . Her voice , so angelic , so powerful , gave her the rights to be called the queen of all divas .

I missed my family and my home , but i dun regret having lost my adolescence . I had one dream ... i wanted to be a singer .

CelineDion said this herself , during an interview . She grew up in a poverty stricken , but by her own accord , a happy home in a small town called Charlemagne . She gained an appreciation for music by singing with her siblings in the small Piano bar belonging to her parents . She collaborated with her mother and her brother for a composition of her first song . Her brother , Michel , sent the song to music manager , ReneAngelil , whose name he discovered on a back of an album by GinetteReno . Angelil immediately knew that CelineDion would become an international success , and decided to mortgage his home in order to find her first record !

So , the album became number one in the local market , and made CelineDion an instant star in Quebec . Her popularity spread to other parts of the world when she competed in the Yamaha World Popular Song Festival in Tokya , Japan . She won both the gold medal and as the top performer . In 1987 , she was approached with 2 songwriters to represent Switzerland in some other competitions . By winning the contest in Dublin , Ireland , she recieved a large boost to her career in Europe , Asia and Australia . She wasnt even 20 yet !

By the late 1980's , CelineDion had already estrablished herself as a local popular artist with manyalbums , and had won many awards , appeared on local and French TV shows , and became the first Canadian artist to recieve a gold record in France for a hit single .

After seeing MichealJackson perform on TV , she told Angelil that she wanted to be a star like him . Even though he had no doubt in her talents , he realised that in order for her to marketed worldwide , her image needed to be changed . She was sent off to a school to polish her English and interviewing skills . CelineDion , eager to begin her career in NorthAmerica , learned English in only 3 months .

Her music has been influenced by various genres , ranging from pop and rock , to gospel and classical , and she is noted for her technically skilled and powerful vocals . Currently , she performs nightly in her show , at CaesarsPalace , LasVegas , under a contract that extends through 2007 .

Her real international breakthrough came when she teamed up with PeaboBryston to record a piece written for Disney's animated film ... 'Beauty and the Beast' . The song captured a musical style that CelineDion would utilize in the future ... sweeping , classically influenced ballads with soft instrumentation . Both a critical and commercial smash , the song not only topped the Billboard chart , but also won the AcademyAwards and GrammyAwards .

In 1993 , CelineDion indicated to the public that she was romantically involved with her manager , by declaring him the colour of her love , in her dedicated section of her third English album . Eventually , they became engaged and had an extravagant wedding ceremony in 1994 . As it was dedicated to her manager , the album's motif centered on love and romance , most exponent in 'The Power of Love' , a remake of JenniferRush's 1985 hit . She also kept to her French roots , releasing French recordings between each English ones . The mid 1990's was a transitional period for CelineDion's musical style , as she slowly moved away from strong rock influences and transitioned into a more pop and soul style . Her songs began with more delicate melodies using soft instrumentations , and built up to strong climaxes , over which her vocals could be displayed . Now , isnt that what we're always hearing for ? This new sound raised critic's eyebrows , who accused her of preferring vocal acrobatics over dynamics , and embarking on a trend of uninspiring , crowd-pleasing ballads . Resultantly , she earned frequent comparisons to artists such as WhitneyHouston and MariahCarey . There were signs that her songs , lyrics and videos became cliched , critically . However , while critical praise declined , this was not the case of popularity , as her releases performed increasingly well on the international charts . She became one of the best-selling artists in the world , among female performers such as WhitneyHouston and ShaniaTwain .

I saw a clip on her singing with some other female singers . I wonder how they felt when they were singing with CelineDion , because obviously , she had the best vocals among the singers . And JoshGroban too , who looked pretty like a little boy , standing next to a diva . There was one with Beyonce showing off her vocals , singing a together with the Destiny'sChild , duet with CelineDion . But too bad , when CelineDion sang , she did it so effortlessly , and showed Beyonce that she has too much to learn . CelineDion is a diva , the best . Quote me .

Her later albums combined many elements ... such as ornate orchestral frills , African chantings , and instruments like Spanish Guitar , Trombone , the Cavaquinho and Saxophone . Her reviews were generally favourable . After releasing and promoting 13 albums , she felt that she needed to settle down , and announced her final album . She needed to take a step back and enjoy the finer things in life . Angelil's diagnosis with throat cancer also prompted her to retire . After undergoing fertility treatments , she gave birth to a song , Rene-CharlesAngelil , in 2001 .

In late 2002 , the NationalEnquirer published a false story about the singer . Brandishing a picture of her and her husband , the magazine misquoted her , printing the headlines that she was pregnant with twins ! She then sued the magazine for over 20 million dollars . The editor printed an apology and a full retraction to CelineDion in the next issue , and donated money to the AmericanCancerSociety , in honour of her and her husband , who battled cancer .

I watched a clip on her being too emotional . She wasnt thinking with her brains . The things she said were all true , and very sincere ... but i guess , its too much . She was crying for a moment , and next ... she was singing !

CelineDion attempted to distance herself from the diva image , and she recruited the help of 4 French men , who she worked with before , and she released an album , themed on fun and relaxation . The cover showed CelineDion in a simple and relaxed manner , a contrast to the choreographed poses usually found in her album covers . Anyway , ive the CD ! The album achieved critical success , and she was getting back to pop basics and performing at a level unheard in a while . An English version of the album was highly anticipated , but it has yet to surface ...

Though her albums were relatively successful , signs of slowing down had began to appear in a poorer critcal reception . The mass appeal of CelineDion's later works had declined due to the nature of the themes , and her songs , now fit for the adult contemporary charts , recieved less airplay , as radio became less embracing of balladeers like CelineDion , and now focused on up-tempo and R&B songs .

In early 2002 , she announced a 3 year contract to appear five nights a week , in an entertainment extravaganza , at CaesarsPalace , LasVegas , for 600 shows . This move was seen as one of the smartest business decisions in years by any major recording artist , given the poor performance of her current releases . She concieved the idea for the show after seeing FrancoDragone , and he designed the 4000-seat arena for her . The show includes CelineDion performing her biggest hits against an array of dancers and special effects , with combination of dance , music and visual effects .

Ive seen her perform , in those clips ... And trust me , her voice is powerful , but her dance steps are ... horrendous . Her moves are ugly and ... weird . Many like to impersonate her singing , but failed , and her dances , which looked rather ... awkward . Sometimes , by singing her ballads , her hands movements are ... totally beautiful and graceful .

Here comes the confusing part . I dun understand how come such a diva would attract so many haters .

Her conservative nature , stage movements , and music is often the subject of media ridiculte , where she is repeatedly impersonated on shows like MadTV , and heavily ridiculted by SouthPark and many stand up comedians ... and TV and movie comedies from across the anglosphere . However , CelineDion seems unabashed by media ridiculte ... and said that she felt kinda flattered when they took the time to impersonate her . Its a good sign to her , as she is often percieved as a diva , where mimicking her songs is popular among female impersonators .

She started brands , and she herself is rather branded . In 2004 , Canada's national air carrier hired CelineDion as part of the new promotional campaign as the airline unveiled new-in-flight service products and new aircraft livery . The endorsement is not without controversy . Union workers criticised that the airline could have spent money elsewhere to improve service and on employees . At the time of the new branding , the airline had come out of bankruptcy protection just 18 months prior and thousands of workers were laid off in the restructuring . So , CelineDion was the cost ?

So now , maybe u'll get the rough idea why people hate her . For me , i love her . I will never get to hear somebody as good as her , ever again . Im sure .

Today's entry , totally dedicated to CelineDion .

Goodnight .

A Small World

That day was that day , and today is today . To think of it , today is that day , and that day is today .

Spent my time with Christoven . Well , this is the first time im spending so much time with him , within this short holiday . So , last night ... we were deciding where to go . We stuck to our first suggestion , to Pulau Ubin . So thats it .

YongRui backed out because he wasnt feeling quite well to cycle . He has some ankle problem , right ? Since he couldnt cycle , it'll be pointless for him to come with us . But , he told us he can skate . Now , isnt that weird ? Anyway , so ... Christoven and i met at around 2 30 pm . I took the cab from my house , and it was drizzling then . Not that light , like kinda normal heavy . Well , i enjoy such drizzles , because its cooling and it chills down the afternoon heat . So , the cab driver was asking if its only raining in AngMoKio .

Well , apparently so , because after we got out of AngMoKio , the rain stopped . How weird right ? As i thought , it must be those blowing from the SouthChinaSea , because now its their peak rainy period . Not really sure , anyway my geography aint that good ... except for naming countries and pointing them out from a globe .

So , i wore this ugly shirt . Its like so Hawaiian , and so ... disturbing , because its attracting weird attention . Anyway , i didnt bring my bag out , because the other time , it was so irritating . I only have sling bags , and they are obstructing when it comes to cycling . Christoven met me at Bedok MRT's bus-stop , and i picked him up from there . Then , we headed towards ChangiVillage . I know , many transexual men there . But , i didnt see any .

Got to the jetty , and amazingly , it looked so much better now . Its clean , new and fresh . So , i bought buns there and i ate a little . Christoven was telling me about his journey there with the other NAFA people before ... and also some other outings . Well , im sure we can talk about things openly , without worrying about getting it carried around like bad gossip . Anyway , we waited for the boat ... and finally , we got in .

Paid $2 each for the trip to Pulau Ubin . It kinda looked weird from far , and i couldnt recognise it . Firstly , because its been quite long since i last went over , and secondly , the view from the boat wasnt that good . Christoven and i were so excited about the cycling ... so , we quickly found a shop , and rented the bikes . The lady was nice , she helped us with our bikes , and told us that we can buy 2 bikes , and they'll give one old one for free . They are selling bikes too ? Weird . Anyway , she gave us the map , and i took it . Its Chek Jawak that we're heading for , and i remember the way quite well . Christoven hopped onto his bike and started cycling ... and remember ? He cannot cycle well . So , he was stopping and turning around , braking ... and even falling . Well , it was kinda funny . For me , im not a very good cyclist either , so ... i was trying to remember how to cycle . I cycled so many times already , so ... it wasnt a problem for me . For Christoven , its only his fourth time , but amazing already .

So , we went the wrong direction . And we treated that as a trial ... and we went for Chek Jawak . Was talking and checking the map . Last year , i swore that i will not go to the zoo and Pulau Ubin again , but wait ... its all happening now , within the same week ! So , that was it ... The weather was killing , and the mosquitoes were super cute . Christoven got the most bites , because he stop rather often , so ... the mosquitoes were feeding on him . Kinda fun , but kinda irritating . It was so warm , and we were all sweating like pigs . We found no drink stalls around ... because they were closed .

I was recalling all the stupid trips i had there , at Pulau Ubin . Kinda unforgettable , as the first time was with Dad and my paternal family members . We were riding towards Chek Jawak , and i think we went the longer path , so ... it took us like almost forever to get there . So , the memory is still , kinda fresh . I still think that it'll take around 3 hours to get there . But , i think im wrong , it'll only take an hour . That time , it took forever because we were stopping ... and we were drinking , enjoying the music the mosquitoes performed at our ears . Anyway , it was hell , and we went through many forest paths . Finally , at Chek Jawak , we were sitting there , and enjoying the sea breeze which we could get from the beach near the resort . Well , anyway , we brought back some of the crabs . Thats wrong , i know . But well , i was young then .

What do u mean ? Of course the crabs died !

Anyway , back then ... we were deciding on the paths to take . Christoven was saying that we should go the normal big paths . But if we do , we'll end back up at the same spot . Thats it , we were all tired and sweaty . Then came the decision ... we shall go back and have a drink . So , the trip to Chek Jawak was a failure . And we made a vow that we'll not go back there again ...

Bought a drink , and had a seat . Then , i saw my neighbours and Kim ... What a small world ? Fucking small world ! There i am , cycling ... and there they are , eating . How coincidence ! Out of the clear blue sky , and there they were ... So , we talked . Christoven went to attend to his wound . Well , he fell quite badly . He was saying shit and stuff ... and i thought maybe he lost his balance . I saw him with my own eyes , that he went into the hole beside the road , and ... a very graceful fall . Leaving dirt and just a few scratches . I hope his wrist is fine ... because his arm is already somehow injured right ? So ... he went to wash his wound . By the way , he was trying to tell me that there is a slope ahead . Thanks Christoven ...

So , we treated each other to drinks , bikes , rides and everything . Thats really nice . Well , i call that sincere , because if im gonna be stingy , i'll be stingy towards stingy people . Christoven is so generous , so ... of course , like a mirror , i should be generous towards him .

We went Orchard right after the trip . He was telling me about this CD shop . Well , i saw it many times . For somebody like me , going there is a must . So , we went there . Its called ThatCDShop . U know , the one in Orchard . Very classy look ...

Before that , we were walking from TheHeerens down to ThatCDShop . Over at TheHeerens , we ate some noodles . Remember ? The one that Evan , Jwen , Samuel and i ate . Its kinda nice , right ? Except for the fact that its too ... little . And so , i ordered extra fried wantons . Quite enjoyable . So , we there aint much to talk about ... because its just too random for a day to be spent like that .

Actually , Cyril wanted to come along . But well , too bad . It'll be awkward ... really ...

The CD shop was great . I think its heavenly . The music there was good , and it was so amazing . Its all the types of music that i would wanna find . Less of the pop genre , more of the new age , modern pieces . They compiled a few , and i first heard a Japanese traditional song , and i fell in love with it . I tried finding it , but it was gone . The lady was missing too after we went to the second level . There was so many CDs , but one of the lady was so ... unfriendly . But the others were fine ... or better . Anyway , it was so fun ! I think i'll go down there again ... and spend some time there alone . Christoven must be bored watching me looking around ... and following me . Anyway , it is really a good place for CDs . Its kinda ... expensive , but really ... cheaper than others . I bought Buddha Bar Remix for $59 , and they are selling it for only $54 . How amazing ? Im so impressed by their CD collections . If ive enough money to throw away like dust , i'll definitely spend most of them there .

Good grief ! What a suggestion ?

Ive made up my mind . Tomorrow i'll go visit Dad , and i'll settle the CSCO matters . Im not going out , and i dun think any others will be ... because nobody is quite active during the holidays . Or either is that they're busy with their own business ... Weird , because im not recieving calls and stuff ... Well , nevermind . Cant blame me for being not popular .

Joking...

Now , im waiting for Dorothy to accept my invitation to add her on MSN . She is going to send me the pictures ... ? So happy ! Well , Dorothy , its nothing wrong to be afraid of butterflies . At least , ur not scared of balls ... like i do . Cant wait ...

But ...

Tired . So , rest well , WeiKang . Of course , to u guys too .
