One Last Dance
I just went to watch the show, and my gosh, it was totally confusing from the very beginning till the end. They flashback from the start w/o giving u any warnings, then come back to the present w/o any warning, then spin you all around and leave you to spin somemore after the whole show.
The show is about how this mafia boss's son got kidnapped by mafias who are in search of some drugs who are working under the italian mafia, because only that son knows where the drugs are. The boss mafia then decided to hire an anonymous assassin to kill off these mafias who kidnapped his son, (and ultimately killed him), and never did the assassin knew that this would lead him to killing himself in the end. This whole show is really bloody compliccated that up till now, I'm still very confuse as o why he whatever he did at the end of the show.
But then story wise, I understood the main gist la, and it's really very very interesting and innovative. It's one of the first shows that lays it's story down bits and pieces at the beginning, then strings it all up in the middle, and continue down the line till the end. So, therefore it's a must watch.
One thing I don't really like about it, are the subtitles. The whole show is in chinese, and the subtitles don't give a direct translation from the chinese subtitles. Here's an example.
Well, maybe it's nothing to fuss about, but I mean, they will show the first part of the sentence to the comma, thne show the next part of the sentence, and if you understand chinese, you'll hear them talking, and expecting to see something that's directly translated into english, rather than changing the whole eng subs although carrying the same gist as that in chinese.
Another example:
And almost every subtitles from mafia speech consists of fuck lol, even though the ONLY bad word (phrase) that was said once in chinese in that show is just ta ma de. I don't get what the hell is wrong with the person who did the subtitles for english. But honestly, I don't have any problems with the fuck thing, but can't they just translate properly? I mean like hello, I even saw malays watching the show la! They must be like, ohhh so that's how fuck sounds like in Chinese. And then, huh? I thought Fuck sounded like that, now it sounds different in this sentence? O.o!
Aiya but lol, I decided not to read the eng subs anymore after awhile. But yeah, it's a really good watch, and I got a spot in GV max muahahaha! Like whoa, the whole theatre is so huge that it can easily be seperated into 2 original size GV theatres, and the screen is like soooo bloody huge. Those who kena the sits from the 3rd row down to 1st row can just give their ticket up and buy better ones next time, or risk getting a neck sprain from watching any show in there.
Ok that's about it, though the main lead is not some hunk, though he may be for Shirlynn, who likes this kind of lao la nan zi han. And that Vivian Hsu is the model for Hang Ten, incase you dunno. Ciaoz.
Thursday, January 11, 2007 My New Dog!
I got her last sunday, cuz my dad suddenly got a craze for getting a new dog. She's a golden retriever, and her name's Whiskey! She is so golden, but so cute hahaha, and so naughty, compared to Wawa when she was small. Whiskey is only 7 weeks old, but she's growing bigger EVERYDAY!
That's what my marist stella singlet's for.
They both treat each other like enemies, both fighting for me to pet.
Tuesday, January 09, 2007 Yesterday, Lung, Felicia, Siyi and I went to have dinner at sketches in Bugis junction to celebrate her 19th year old birthday! So old already hor.. Lung totally shaved his head bald cuz he say go in must have black hair, if not you will kena very easily.
Me: What's with the hair?
Lung: It's the new fashion.
We had a really enjoyable time together, talking about our work, and army, probably the most common issue everyone is talking about now. Apparently, Lung is getting enlisted TODAY, so we had little time to play before he had to go home to sleep. I think they are still happy together la (Felicia and lung), but then, over
dinner yesterday,
What lung insists from Felicia
#~ To lose more fats.
#~ To wear a dress when they go out.
What Felicia wants from lung
#~ So far nothing yet, as far as I could tell.
Siyi: Felicia is so skinney already!
Lung: but Thin is not fit what, I want her to be fit. The other time I call her go jogging with me...
BBQ
On sunday, Ex 304 had a chalet and BBQ somewhere in the east, so Maurice and I went down to Escape theme park at about 5 plus to fill in our application form to work there =D . It's a weekend job, sorta, so it should be quite relaxing la. Btw, Project Superstars will be performing at Escape on the 13th Jan! Not that I'm interested or anything, but hopefully I will be working by then, then can see free show Hyuk hyuk! We went into the room next to the security room, (some guest something something), and the lady behind the counter was busy chatting away on Msn with her undone work laid on the table, about as far away from her eyes as possible. We questioned her about the whereabouts of the form, and she reluctantly paused her chatting to take 2 slips of paper for us. And then, continued her chatting. We stared at the form, as the first line read,
Which position would you like to take?
Uh, how about the manager of Escape? I motioned my eyes towards her questioningly, and she decided to finish her sentence, then changed her status to *Boss* mode, and the screen then somehow magically vanished out of sight. She explained to us how to fill in the form (obviously not those parts like name and I.C number =.=), then pressed some code number on the keyboard, causing her chat window to magically appear back as the *online and idiotically free to chat* mode again, and continued her chat with her friend. Or whoever la! We filled in the form, and left the office. I thought to myself, what if they were looking for plp to fill in the place of this woman?? I imagined myself behind the counter, chatting on Msn like the lady, with tons of undone work left sprawled under the desk, (So that I really cannot see it no matter where I'm looking at), then when some stupid person(s) walk into the office to interrupt my conversation, I'll just lift up one hand and point to where ever anything should be. And without lifting my eyes off the com for a sec, I will continue chatting away in the *I'm totally online now so come talk to me!* mode. Then when the boss comes in, I will switch to the *The Boss is watching somewhere nearby, BRB* mode and pick one of the book from underneath my desk, and pretend to analyse the constant loss Escape is making monthly, but forcing myself to plot a graph sloping upwards for the boss to see, then when he's gone, I'll toss the book one side and continue chatting.
Shudder. no way. That sounds too boring for me.
We went on to Tampinies mall to play at the arcade, and I saw a few people I know, including nicole and Amanda.
Me: This is town for my school people, so I will confirm meet alot of plp I know.
Maurice: Lucky for me, cuz I will meet no one here, cuz most of the time we go town, I always see my sch plp, wait they get wrong info and think I'm like so havoc, always see me in town.
After spending like 20 bucks there to support the ever growing Arcade industry, we left at like 7:45 and I went my way to the chalet, while he went his way to dunno where to feast cuz his aunty struck 4-D 3rd price. His family always striking toto or 4-D one la, dunno why so lucky one.
Me: I thought you are supposed to meet at 8:15 at where? Bouna Vista?
Maurice: I nvr recieve any calls from my family yet, means they still at home la. My family is, meeting time at 8:15, 8:15 then leave the house.
The day before, I received a msg saying to take bus 29 from tp interchange for 24 stops until I reach the chalet, and I was like omgosh, I'll just fall asleep and miss the stop. That day, on the bus, I was peacefully sleeping away as predicted, for what seemed like 48 hours, then I woke up suddenly and looked around outside the window, to see yi pian wu qi ma hei which totally shocked me, cuz I thought I reached malaysia already, so I jammed the *Stop* button and jumped down the bus at the next stop. The bus left a while later, and I found myself in this ulu pandang place and had totally no idea where the hell I am at. I decided to call for help, and realised that I stopped wayyy to early. And I checked the time. 8:45.
An hour has miraculously passed from when I left Tm, and my dinner would soon be turned to supper. I decided to walk and cross the junction to where civilisation is, to check if I could board another bus there to the chalet.
Help: Only bus 29 stops outside the chalet. (Hahaha sucker)
No choice (;_:) I had to walk back to the ulu bus stop to wait for the next service, and found out that It was already 9:15 then. I waited for half an hour for the bus, which still decided to ps me, so i paid 5 bucks to take a cab there. And still got lost until Help found me strangled near some sign board, and led me to the chalet. (My bro still haven't come yet -.-)
Fast forward to when I was having my supper, which consisted of left over fried rice, curry tung hoon, some salad, Kan tang, dunno cooked or raw, and a tray of burnt sausages.
Me to my bro: Eh they say today they bbq right? Where's all the food ar? (It's not a question)
But nvm la, we didn't go for bbq also, so really cannot expect to see food left all over the table, nicely spread out with a glass of 1977 champagne by the side of gold lined plates, on the table laid with a blood red cloth made of 50% silk, 30% wool and 20% nylon.
We talked about everything from her PSS2 to her Raine. She told me she was learning to jam on the drumset, so she can jam also in Raine's concerts.
Me: Please la, I think you go be the calafare dancer better lo.
small joyce: Eh, but Raine's calafare dancers all very good leh, they get to touch his body.
Shirlynn: Ya lo, I bet he will let me touch him all over, then I make all the other girls jealous.
(and continued slicing her kan tang in the most feminine way she could muster.)
Me: Please la, I think he will have nightmares forever if he let you touch him.
(I took a sip of sprite from my cup.)
Shirlynn: No lo, I will make him touch me all over. (*Smiles smiles*)
I swear, I nearly choked on my Sprite then, and I tried to spit it out but it went down my throat instead, sending me to go into the most unglam coughing frenzy.
After that, everything went ahead as how a party at chalets normally would go, and I had to leav with my bro at about 1 something am, her nice parents tombang me back to Tm so i could cab back, and along the way, we passed by Changi village's red light district.
Shirlynn (suddenly in a frenzy): Oh my god! eh your kind all down there!! Pa drive in!!!
We went in and I was totally shocked by what I saw! The "women" standing and walking around with their breasts hanging out of their clothes are all man-monsters!! it was my 1st experience to see these kind of plp in Singapore. They were on in nothing except their bras and hot pants and stilettos, some walking around with chee kos by their side, and some talking to each other. The first one I saw totally looked like a man in make up and boobs! As we continues, each man-monster begun to look more chio, such that the last few totally looked like models, unrecognisable as man-monsters. Their breasts are like freaking huge la! They can make lots of singapore girls lao kui in looks and figure. But one thing scary was that as we drove pass them, every single one standing around stared into the car and each of us, and their eyes never left the cars till we're out of sight and safely back home.
Sca-Ry!

Wednesday, January 03, 2007
Monday, January 01, 2007 This new year, my first day was the most happening new year's day of my life. Jh asked me out to go to the countdown at the Marina Bay, some river side thing by the Esplanade where we will see glowing spheres on the water. I was like huh? Spheres?? But I agreed to in the end and met him at Cineleisure arcade at 4:30 to spend this whole bag of tokens we bought last yr but couldn't use before he went back to Australia on EzOne games. But the arcade so shiok sia, we put in like 10 tokens, 8 of them kena eaten away. I think it's cuz our tokens too old alr, so the machines cannot detect, and most probably thought it's some junk we tossed in there. Well, if they can even think.
5:45 We spent the entire bag of tokens and left the rather boring arcade to catch a movie, A Night at the Museum. It's an okay show la, it's not really that lame, it's like, a story and laughter kind of show.
7:30 Jh wanted to rush there quickly to get the very good view (as in the spot by the river side la) of the fireworks so he suggested skipping dinner to get there as quickly as possible. Though I was like starving, I sorta agreed cuz I didn't want to spoil his evening by going to eat then not being able to get his river side spot.
8:30 We walked through the citylink and like totally rushed there, I dunno how he got the strength to walk so fast cuz I was like dying of hunger, and reached there in time to see the place already crowded with super kiasu Singaporeans who like most probably reached there at 5pm to get thier spot. They like lay picnic mats all over the grass patch as sorta like their territorial divider and lay around with their Char Kway Tiao most probably bought from some nearby kopi tiam or at the Lau pa sat, but nonetheless, Jh managed to squeeze through the whole pack of human sardines and chopped a spot near the river side for us to sit.
9:00 Cheah, the spheres are actually balls la, the one where we got to write our new year wishes on, then pollute the water with them. haha no la, it's quite nice actually. Lucky I gave Jh this bag of chocs which was supposed to be my gift for him from NZ, so I sorta koped alot of chocs and gobbled them like some pig before the acid in my stomache dissolve my stomach away. Then I waited for 12 am to come.....
9:30 And I continued waiting.... I'm not into this kind of thing seriously. I think that was the MOST BORING wait I've ever had in my life, so pls don't ask me to do this kind of thing seriously. But then I agreed with JH to go next year's countdown already XD aiyo, but nvm la.
10:00 Omg, and still waiting.
10:30 I Sw-ear I will nvr waste my time on such a thing ever again!
11:00 And then came the first fireworks teaser of the night. I Sw-ear it's the worst teaser I've ever seen in my entire life. Someone spilled their fucking rose syrup on the floor and had such a kind soul to miss warning me. Only when I stood up did I notice my ass was wet and freaking sticky. YEucks man. Singaporeans are so kind, tnx for the new yr's gift. Maybe it was the banglas I dunno, cuz about 1/3 of the population there at the river side are banglas. And they are so damn polite sia. I dunno, mayb they can't speak english, but their form of asking for their way is to push you away from their path to make way for them and their gay friends.
By then, it started raining, so Jh took out his umbrella (I got a shock that he brought, but good thing he did) and everyone stood up to squeeze under their umbrellas and stuff and the emcee was like
MC: Hey everyone! I know it's like raining outside there, but isn't it fun?! Let's get this party grooving!!
Me to Jh: Ya, I throw her into the water than I see if she still say it's fun or not.
and some old man sitting nearby stared at me...
11:30 It actually became more exciting cuz I had my mp3 on in my ears and I was sorta "feeling" the music while standing up while waiting for the time to move to 12 am, and they released another fireworks teaser at that time, which was totally pathetic.
Jh was feeling tired and started to complain alr how sleepy he is, how his body ached from all that standing. Actually I was too, not the sleepy part, but then so funny I thought he wanted to come see the fireworks, how come he like somplaining now while im not lol. but anyways, I continued standing...and waiting...
11:57 Wah finally sia!
Emcee: People on the bridge! I wanna hear you say Ah!
Haha man, no the emcee was so not happening sia, what he actually said was...
Emcee (real one) : Welcome to the .......countdown....people....raining..... bla bla...
Omg, it's the world's most boring emcee man. And the funny thing was, the emcee was talking halfway, and introducing the various nVIP {(not very important people) to me} then suddenly the fireworks just started and everyone were cheering their assess off like they nvr see fireworks before. The emcees totally screwed the countdown inside out and all around. Some countdown party without the countdown.... W00T! I so LOVE the countdown party man!
Ok no one has loaded the fireworks display on youtube yet, but do try to look for it if you diodn't see it. Like wth man, why did you miss the fireworks? You should like jump down now if u've missed it. It was a very very nice display that totally stunned me throughout the whole show. I dunno why ur so un-happening, but pls try to find the video of it if you can, well, if you missed it that is.
(Btw tsl made a video of his wishes for 07 youths and my bro so shiok, nvr join me in esplanade. See la! that is your sia chang for ps-ing me for your cousins.)
12:10 We decided to head t lau pa sat to eat and walked aall the way there I Sw-ear my calories from the chocolates were all gone by then. What with the road blocks and stuff, we actually HAD to take the detour just to get there. It was so fun la! Like everywhere is ren sai really sai until everyone's body is touching each other. Then, suddenly in this crowd, this small group of plp suddenly Screamed and started spraying foam all around and everyone else screamed and stampede away even in this huge crowd. i think i was like laughing so much I had more fun watching plp kena sprayed than the bloody countdown la. Everyone's trying to dodge the small group of foam sprayers right, so the crowd and practically everyone else had to move in one direction, which is away from the sprayers. Then suddenly, another group screamed and started spraying the poor plp who were on their stampede away from the 1st group. And this continued like for 10 mins, If i was a bird I think what I would have seen would be quite hilarious lol. like suddenly a bomb of foam and everyone stampedes to one side, then another bomb of foam and they stampede to the other.
01:00 After all that pushing and squeezing, and walking and turning like 100 turns later, we reached Lau pa sat anbd Jh was complaining how tired he was. Like I dunno why, but I did ask what time he sleeps every night and he said like 11-12. =.=!
01:30 I called my bro o ask her if she's like on her way to meet me to go clubbing, then she sais she's still at ECp. Wah tnc man. Jh called his parents to come by and fetch him.
02:15 Jh called his parents to ask them why they so slow, and to hurry them up. My bro say she's on the way.
02:30 Jh called his parents again to ask them where they are, and went out to meet them and was on the way home. Then i received a msg.
Shirlynn: Eh I not gg alrdy. My parents dun allow.
Me: Wtf! Ps me.
Shirlynn: Siah la, I dio scolding in e car like siao.
My parents r such unreasonable pple la! Scold me wad, i take drugs, etc.
(ok that's it, the rest of our convo is personal)
02:45 I received a call from Maurice and busty lai that their at the Balcony drinking and playing cards with their CJ friends, and wanted me to go over.
Maurice: My advice to you is to cab over.
Me: But cab, so ex leh, you pay for me then I go over la!
Maurice: Um...no?
Me: Ya, but if you want me to go over, then U must help pay for my cab fare also. If you donwan to pay, means u dont want me to go over. Then if u don wan me to go over, then why shud I?
Maurice: -.-! Whatever lo.
03:00 Received a msg from Liting and begun msging crap to her. My bro oso sent me alot of msg and I was msging furiously while trying to flag a cab. (She was complaining abt how disgusting her parents were, and liting was asking me if I saw her at marina bay =.=!)
Someone, the more I walked away from lau pa sat, the more plp I see flagging for cab. So I decided to walk infront of them to steal their cabs. So I walked while msging busily and finally walked like 200m infront of the person who was at the end of the lae and stood there watching all the cabs pass by with that stupid "Hired" sign. Those flashing green lights were all "On call". Ok this is funny but as I type this, it just occured to me that the cabs sound like prostitutes. But nvm, I decided to look around to see where I was, and found myself at George's street. The scenery slowly faded from tall skyscrapers to shorter HDB flats. Totally lost. There were people infront of me still, and they were waving at practically every vehicle passing by, including motor cycles. I thin they're desperate alr.
03:30 I decided to continue walking, and had already gave up trying to flag a cab. Everywhere around me, no matter how ulu the place is whereva I am, every 10 steps infront and behind me, there were like plp flagging for everything, including trishaw riders. So I just walked on to this thing that looked very much like an MRT railway, and decided to go towards the railway and then follow it towards the nearest MRT station, and maybe camp there till the station opens.
Me: Eh, whenva ur leaving, call me, take a cab down to whereva I am, I'd most probably be still loafing srnd somewhere.
Maurice orh ok.
03:45 And then, after walking out to the main road, I took a look around and saw this shopping mall.. Chinatown Point. GREAT! I'm now stuck somewhere in Cheenatown with no sense of direction to where home is as I've almost convinced myself I would have to walk home by then. Suddenly, I heard the cars screaming their horns out into the lively night air and I turned around to see this mad guy in his 20s sitting in the middle of the freaking junction with his arms on his knees and his head on his arms like a stupid stone! The cars all threatened to knock him down and dared o go as close to him as they dared to, and the night air filled with the blast of horns from all sides of the junction! I panicked! Fuck! where is my camera???!!!!! One trishaw rider passed by, and nudged him to get up, but he remained stoned and rooted to the floor like the world's dumbest rock, and plp were like all staring at this crazy guy. Everyone was too stunned to even say anything, and all we could do was just stare. Cars were already moving, trying to zig zag around teh trishaw rider and that crazy guy, and they were like SO CLOSE to being knocked down by cars moving at 70km/h. In the end, that courageous trishaw rider pulled the guy to one side of the pedestrian, which miraculously woke him from his deep slumber, and the trishaw rider ran back to his trishaw and rode it away, with seconds from his trishaw to being smashed into smithereens of junk metal and PVC. A round of applause filled the dark sky and people begun cheering as the hero rode away with better news to tell his wife than any others on his nightly rounds.
OK FINE -.-! Like it's singapore. The trishaw rider rode away and everyone continued walking as if nothing happened before.
04:00 I walked towards Cheenatown point and started calling any friends that were still up to chat with them while I waited for the cheena town mrt station to open, or wait for Maurice to come, depending which came first. Everywhere around me, plp were still flagging for anything, and the taxi stand at cheenatown point was filled with plp, and taxis come at a rate of 1 per 20mins. This group of banglas were camping outside the mrt station, and a few beng wannabes came by, apparently overly excited at the thought of going into the Macs at CTP and spouting vulgarities when they see that the hip Mac was closed alr since 12 am. I think the cleaners purposely left some lights on to attract dumb plp to Macs only to be fooled by the "Closed" sign hanging at the door, and snickering at the stupid plp who were kena fooled.
04:15:
Me: Oi are you coming soon?
Maurice: Hold on ar. (Shouted to his friends: "Come la! Another round of Bridge!")
=_=!
I decided to camp outside Macs and watch all the stupid plp who kena tricked by the lights and then spouting vulgarities when they find that it's closed. Suddenly, the whole place started filling with plp walking to and fro. I tio stun and realised that it had to be the clubs that were all closing at 4, so these clubbers were loafing arnd till the station is opened again.
Btw after walking so far, i SW-ear yet again, that I've lost all the calories I've consumed (must have been possessed at those times) by the chocolates, and the stuff I ate at Lau pa sat.
04:30 I was still talking crap with my bro, and she was complaining abt her parents thinking she go club to what take drugs.
Me: Ya, I intro u the mad guy who was sitting on the road just now la, then your 2 can picnic drugs and sit together on teh road. Maybe you 1 junction, then he 1 junction, so shiok man.
Shirlynn: Yaya tnx..
She thanked me, but I dunno the guy go where liaoz, so sorry bro, cannot intro u your perfect guy.
04:45
Maurice: Eh, I'm leaving now, I trying to flag cab but they all dont want go 3 places leh, cuz want to change shift liaoz. (3 places being cheenatown point, his house, then my house.)
(Sianz la...really must take mrt meh? the station nvr open.)
Actually I don't get it leh. They taxi drivers earn so little already, they still donwan to accept going to 3 places at once cuz it's change shift already. Mad la, got money don wan earn. But seriously, in this society now, which taxi driver is the breadwinner of the family? Ok la, maybe some, but it will most probably be 15-20%? Maybe it's cuz of that that's why they can't be bothered with money. They just wanna work only.
05:10 Finally! The cab arrived!! All around me were either plp who were trying to flag a cab since 30 mins ago, or plp sleeping arnd at the bus stops and mac waiting for the public service to begin, or some plp who really wan dao feng, still not high enough. I got into the cab,
Maurice: (Stretches hand out) Happy New Year!
I stretched my hand out and shoke his.
Me: Pull Your Ear.

One Last Dance
I just went to watch the show, and my gosh, it was totally confusing from the very beginning till the end. They flashback from the start w/o giving u any warnings, then come back to the present w/o any warning, then spin you all around and leave you to spin somemore after the whole show.
The show is about how this mafia boss's son got kidnapped by mafias who are in search of some drugs who are working under the italian mafia, because only that son knows where the drugs are. The boss mafia then decided to hire an anonymous assassin to kill off these mafias who kidnapped his son, (and ultimately killed him), and never did the assassin knew that this would lead him to killing himself in the end. This whole show is really bloody compliccated that up till now, I'm still very confuse as o why he whatever he did at the end of the show.
But then story wise, I understood the main gist la, and it's really very very interesting and innovative. It's one of the first shows that lays it's story down bits and pieces at the beginning, then strings it all up in the middle, and continue down the line till the end. So, therefore it's a must watch.
One thing I don't really like about it, are the subtitles. The whole show is in chinese, and the subtitles don't give a direct translation from the chinese subtitles. Here's an example.
Chinese: Ni xian ba nai dao jin bei zi li, ran hou ba cha dao jin qu.
(First, pour the milk into the teacup, then pour in the tea.)
English: You pour the tea, only after you pour the milk into the teacup.
Well, maybe it's nothing to fuss about, but I mean, they will show the first part of the sentence to the comma, thne show the next part of the sentence, and if you understand chinese, you'll hear them talking, and expecting to see something that's directly translated into english, rather than changing the whole eng subs although carrying the same gist as that in chinese.
Another example:
Chinese: Ni wei she me sha ta?!
(Why did you kill him?!)
English: Why the fuck did you kill that asshole?!
And almost every subtitles from mafia speech consists of fuck lol, even though the ONLY bad word (phrase) that was said once in chinese in that show is just ta ma de. I don't get what the hell is wrong with the person who did the subtitles for english. But honestly, I don't have any problems with the fuck thing, but can't they just translate properly? I mean like hello, I even saw malays watching the show la! They must be like, ohhh so that's how fuck sounds like in Chinese. And then, huh? I thought Fuck sounded like that, now it sounds different in this sentence? O.o!
Aiya but lol, I decided not to read the eng subs anymore after awhile. But yeah, it's a really good watch, and I got a spot in GV max muahahaha! Like whoa, the whole theatre is so huge that it can easily be seperated into 2 original size GV theatres, and the screen is like soooo bloody huge. Those who kena the sits from the 3rd row down to 1st row can just give their ticket up and buy better ones next time, or risk getting a neck sprain from watching any show in there.
Ok that's about it, though the main lead is not some hunk, though he may be for Shirlynn, who likes this kind of lao la nan zi han. And that Vivian Hsu is the model for Hang Ten, incase you dunno. Ciaoz.
Thursday, January 11, 2007 My New Dog!
I got her last sunday, cuz my dad suddenly got a craze for getting a new dog. She's a golden retriever, and her name's Whiskey! She is so golden, but so cute hahaha, and so naughty, compared to Wawa when she was small. Whiskey is only 7 weeks old, but she's growing bigger EVERYDAY!
That's what my marist stella singlet's for.
They both treat each other like enemies, both fighting for me to pet.Tuesday, January 09, 2007 Yesterday, Lung, Felicia, Siyi and I went to have dinner at sketches in Bugis junction to celebrate her 19th year old birthday! So old already hor.. Lung totally shaved his head bald cuz he say go in must have black hair, if not you will kena very easily.
Me: What's with the hair?
Lung: It's the new fashion.
We had a really enjoyable time together, talking about our work, and army, probably the most common issue everyone is talking about now. Apparently, Lung is getting enlisted TODAY, so we had little time to play before he had to go home to sleep. I think they are still happy together la (Felicia and lung), but then, over
dinner yesterday,
What lung insists from Felicia
#~ To lose more fats.
#~ To wear a dress when they go out.
What Felicia wants from lung
#~ So far nothing yet, as far as I could tell.
Siyi: Felicia is so skinney already!
Lung: but Thin is not fit what, I want her to be fit. The other time I call her go jogging with me...
Felicia(over the phone): Don't want la, must go so far to meet
you.
Lung: Then go jogging with your sister la!
Felicia: Don't want la, I confirm cannot catch up with her.
Lung: Then go jogging by yourself la!
Felicia: Don't want la! Wait I heart attack nobody come save
me!
Lung: You see la!The only exercise she do is to sit on the couch everyday and watch the hour hand of the clock spinning.
( And he raised his finger and turned a clockwise motion round and round)
Siyi: Why must she wear dress all the time when she go out?!
Lung: Girl wear dress got problem meh?!
( They were both speaking in Mandarin, so this is like direct translation.)
Anyway. I got no comments haha.
BBQ
On sunday, Ex 304 had a chalet and BBQ somewhere in the east, so Maurice and I went down to Escape theme park at about 5 plus to fill in our application form to work there =D . It's a weekend job, sorta, so it should be quite relaxing la. Btw, Project Superstars will be performing at Escape on the 13th Jan! Not that I'm interested or anything, but hopefully I will be working by then, then can see free show Hyuk hyuk! We went into the room next to the security room, (some guest something something), and the lady behind the counter was busy chatting away on Msn with her undone work laid on the table, about as far away from her eyes as possible. We questioned her about the whereabouts of the form, and she reluctantly paused her chatting to take 2 slips of paper for us. And then, continued her chatting. We stared at the form, as the first line read,
Which position would you like to take?
Uh, how about the manager of Escape? I motioned my eyes towards her questioningly, and she decided to finish her sentence, then changed her status to *Boss* mode, and the screen then somehow magically vanished out of sight. She explained to us how to fill in the form (obviously not those parts like name and I.C number =.=), then pressed some code number on the keyboard, causing her chat window to magically appear back as the *online and idiotically free to chat* mode again, and continued her chat with her friend. Or whoever la! We filled in the form, and left the office. I thought to myself, what if they were looking for plp to fill in the place of this woman?? I imagined myself behind the counter, chatting on Msn like the lady, with tons of undone work left sprawled under the desk, (So that I really cannot see it no matter where I'm looking at), then when some stupid person(s) walk into the office to interrupt my conversation, I'll just lift up one hand and point to where ever anything should be. And without lifting my eyes off the com for a sec, I will continue chatting away in the *I'm totally online now so come talk to me!* mode. Then when the boss comes in, I will switch to the *The Boss is watching somewhere nearby, BRB* mode and pick one of the book from underneath my desk, and pretend to analyse the constant loss Escape is making monthly, but forcing myself to plot a graph sloping upwards for the boss to see, then when he's gone, I'll toss the book one side and continue chatting.
Shudder. no way. That sounds too boring for me.
We went on to Tampinies mall to play at the arcade, and I saw a few people I know, including nicole and Amanda.
Me: This is town for my school people, so I will confirm meet alot of plp I know.
Maurice: Lucky for me, cuz I will meet no one here, cuz most of the time we go town, I always see my sch plp, wait they get wrong info and think I'm like so havoc, always see me in town.
After spending like 20 bucks there to support the ever growing Arcade industry, we left at like 7:45 and I went my way to the chalet, while he went his way to dunno where to feast cuz his aunty struck 4-D 3rd price. His family always striking toto or 4-D one la, dunno why so lucky one.
Me: I thought you are supposed to meet at 8:15 at where? Bouna Vista?
Maurice: I nvr recieve any calls from my family yet, means they still at home la. My family is, meeting time at 8:15, 8:15 then leave the house.
The day before, I received a msg saying to take bus 29 from tp interchange for 24 stops until I reach the chalet, and I was like omgosh, I'll just fall asleep and miss the stop. That day, on the bus, I was peacefully sleeping away as predicted, for what seemed like 48 hours, then I woke up suddenly and looked around outside the window, to see yi pian wu qi ma hei which totally shocked me, cuz I thought I reached malaysia already, so I jammed the *Stop* button and jumped down the bus at the next stop. The bus left a while later, and I found myself in this ulu pandang place and had totally no idea where the hell I am at. I decided to call for help, and realised that I stopped wayyy to early. And I checked the time. 8:45.
An hour has miraculously passed from when I left Tm, and my dinner would soon be turned to supper. I decided to walk and cross the junction to where civilisation is, to check if I could board another bus there to the chalet.
Help: Only bus 29 stops outside the chalet. (Hahaha sucker)
No choice (;_:) I had to walk back to the ulu bus stop to wait for the next service, and found out that It was already 9:15 then. I waited for half an hour for the bus, which still decided to ps me, so i paid 5 bucks to take a cab there. And still got lost until Help found me strangled near some sign board, and led me to the chalet. (My bro still haven't come yet -.-)
Fast forward to when I was having my supper, which consisted of left over fried rice, curry tung hoon, some salad, Kan tang, dunno cooked or raw, and a tray of burnt sausages.
Me to my bro: Eh they say today they bbq right? Where's all the food ar? (It's not a question)
But nvm la, we didn't go for bbq also, so really cannot expect to see food left all over the table, nicely spread out with a glass of 1977 champagne by the side of gold lined plates, on the table laid with a blood red cloth made of 50% silk, 30% wool and 20% nylon.
We talked about everything from her PSS2 to her Raine. She told me she was learning to jam on the drumset, so she can jam also in Raine's concerts.
Me: Please la, I think you go be the calafare dancer better lo.
small joyce: Eh, but Raine's calafare dancers all very good leh, they get to touch his body.
Shirlynn: Ya lo, I bet he will let me touch him all over, then I make all the other girls jealous.
(and continued slicing her kan tang in the most feminine way she could muster.)
Me: Please la, I think he will have nightmares forever if he let you touch him.
(I took a sip of sprite from my cup.)
Shirlynn: No lo, I will make him touch me all over. (*Smiles smiles*)
I swear, I nearly choked on my Sprite then, and I tried to spit it out but it went down my throat instead, sending me to go into the most unglam coughing frenzy.
After that, everything went ahead as how a party at chalets normally would go, and I had to leav with my bro at about 1 something am, her nice parents tombang me back to Tm so i could cab back, and along the way, we passed by Changi village's red light district.
Shirlynn (suddenly in a frenzy): Oh my god! eh your kind all down there!! Pa drive in!!!
We went in and I was totally shocked by what I saw! The "women" standing and walking around with their breasts hanging out of their clothes are all man-monsters!! it was my 1st experience to see these kind of plp in Singapore. They were on in nothing except their bras and hot pants and stilettos, some walking around with chee kos by their side, and some talking to each other. The first one I saw totally looked like a man in make up and boobs! As we continues, each man-monster begun to look more chio, such that the last few totally looked like models, unrecognisable as man-monsters. Their breasts are like freaking huge la! They can make lots of singapore girls lao kui in looks and figure. But one thing scary was that as we drove pass them, every single one standing around stared into the car and each of us, and their eyes never left the cars till we're out of sight and safely back home.
Sca-Ry!

The Ultimate final fantasy wins!
Monday, January 01, 2007 This new year, my first day was the most happening new year's day of my life. Jh asked me out to go to the countdown at the Marina Bay, some river side thing by the Esplanade where we will see glowing spheres on the water. I was like huh? Spheres?? But I agreed to in the end and met him at Cineleisure arcade at 4:30 to spend this whole bag of tokens we bought last yr but couldn't use before he went back to Australia on EzOne games. But the arcade so shiok sia, we put in like 10 tokens, 8 of them kena eaten away. I think it's cuz our tokens too old alr, so the machines cannot detect, and most probably thought it's some junk we tossed in there. Well, if they can even think.
5:45 We spent the entire bag of tokens and left the rather boring arcade to catch a movie, A Night at the Museum. It's an okay show la, it's not really that lame, it's like, a story and laughter kind of show.
7:30 Jh wanted to rush there quickly to get the very good view (as in the spot by the river side la) of the fireworks so he suggested skipping dinner to get there as quickly as possible. Though I was like starving, I sorta agreed cuz I didn't want to spoil his evening by going to eat then not being able to get his river side spot.
8:30 We walked through the citylink and like totally rushed there, I dunno how he got the strength to walk so fast cuz I was like dying of hunger, and reached there in time to see the place already crowded with super kiasu Singaporeans who like most probably reached there at 5pm to get thier spot. They like lay picnic mats all over the grass patch as sorta like their territorial divider and lay around with their Char Kway Tiao most probably bought from some nearby kopi tiam or at the Lau pa sat, but nonetheless, Jh managed to squeeze through the whole pack of human sardines and chopped a spot near the river side for us to sit.
9:00 Cheah, the spheres are actually balls la, the one where we got to write our new year wishes on, then pollute the water with them. haha no la, it's quite nice actually. Lucky I gave Jh this bag of chocs which was supposed to be my gift for him from NZ, so I sorta koped alot of chocs and gobbled them like some pig before the acid in my stomache dissolve my stomach away. Then I waited for 12 am to come.....
9:30 And I continued waiting.... I'm not into this kind of thing seriously. I think that was the MOST BORING wait I've ever had in my life, so pls don't ask me to do this kind of thing seriously. But then I agreed with JH to go next year's countdown already XD aiyo, but nvm la.
10:00 Omg, and still waiting.
10:30 I Sw-ear I will nvr waste my time on such a thing ever again!
11:00 And then came the first fireworks teaser of the night. I Sw-ear it's the worst teaser I've ever seen in my entire life. Someone spilled their fucking rose syrup on the floor and had such a kind soul to miss warning me. Only when I stood up did I notice my ass was wet and freaking sticky. YEucks man. Singaporeans are so kind, tnx for the new yr's gift. Maybe it was the banglas I dunno, cuz about 1/3 of the population there at the river side are banglas. And they are so damn polite sia. I dunno, mayb they can't speak english, but their form of asking for their way is to push you away from their path to make way for them and their gay friends.
By then, it started raining, so Jh took out his umbrella (I got a shock that he brought, but good thing he did) and everyone stood up to squeeze under their umbrellas and stuff and the emcee was like
MC: Hey everyone! I know it's like raining outside there, but isn't it fun?! Let's get this party grooving!!
Me to Jh: Ya, I throw her into the water than I see if she still say it's fun or not.
and some old man sitting nearby stared at me...
11:30 It actually became more exciting cuz I had my mp3 on in my ears and I was sorta "feeling" the music while standing up while waiting for the time to move to 12 am, and they released another fireworks teaser at that time, which was totally pathetic.
Jh was feeling tired and started to complain alr how sleepy he is, how his body ached from all that standing. Actually I was too, not the sleepy part, but then so funny I thought he wanted to come see the fireworks, how come he like somplaining now while im not lol. but anyways, I continued standing...and waiting...
11:57 Wah finally sia!
Emcee: People on the bridge! I wanna hear you say Ah!
Haha man, no the emcee was so not happening sia, what he actually said was...
Emcee (real one) : Welcome to the .......countdown....people....raining..... bla bla...
Omg, it's the world's most boring emcee man. And the funny thing was, the emcee was talking halfway, and introducing the various nVIP {(not very important people) to me} then suddenly the fireworks just started and everyone were cheering their assess off like they nvr see fireworks before. The emcees totally screwed the countdown inside out and all around. Some countdown party without the countdown.... W00T! I so LOVE the countdown party man!
Ok no one has loaded the fireworks display on youtube yet, but do try to look for it if you diodn't see it. Like wth man, why did you miss the fireworks? You should like jump down now if u've missed it. It was a very very nice display that totally stunned me throughout the whole show. I dunno why ur so un-happening, but pls try to find the video of it if you can, well, if you missed it that is.
(Btw tsl made a video of his wishes for 07 youths and my bro so shiok, nvr join me in esplanade. See la! that is your sia chang for ps-ing me for your cousins.)
12:10 We decided to head t lau pa sat to eat and walked aall the way there I Sw-ear my calories from the chocolates were all gone by then. What with the road blocks and stuff, we actually HAD to take the detour just to get there. It was so fun la! Like everywhere is ren sai really sai until everyone's body is touching each other. Then, suddenly in this crowd, this small group of plp suddenly Screamed and started spraying foam all around and everyone else screamed and stampede away even in this huge crowd. i think i was like laughing so much I had more fun watching plp kena sprayed than the bloody countdown la. Everyone's trying to dodge the small group of foam sprayers right, so the crowd and practically everyone else had to move in one direction, which is away from the sprayers. Then suddenly, another group screamed and started spraying the poor plp who were on their stampede away from the 1st group. And this continued like for 10 mins, If i was a bird I think what I would have seen would be quite hilarious lol. like suddenly a bomb of foam and everyone stampedes to one side, then another bomb of foam and they stampede to the other.
01:00 After all that pushing and squeezing, and walking and turning like 100 turns later, we reached Lau pa sat anbd Jh was complaining how tired he was. Like I dunno why, but I did ask what time he sleeps every night and he said like 11-12. =.=!
01:30 I called my bro o ask her if she's like on her way to meet me to go clubbing, then she sais she's still at ECp. Wah tnc man. Jh called his parents to come by and fetch him.
02:15 Jh called his parents to ask them why they so slow, and to hurry them up. My bro say she's on the way.
02:30 Jh called his parents again to ask them where they are, and went out to meet them and was on the way home. Then i received a msg.
Shirlynn: Eh I not gg alrdy. My parents dun allow.
Me: Wtf! Ps me.
Shirlynn: Siah la, I dio scolding in e car like siao.
My parents r such unreasonable pple la! Scold me wad, i take drugs, etc.
(ok that's it, the rest of our convo is personal)
02:45 I received a call from Maurice and busty lai that their at the Balcony drinking and playing cards with their CJ friends, and wanted me to go over.
Maurice: My advice to you is to cab over.
Me: But cab, so ex leh, you pay for me then I go over la!
Maurice: Um...no?
Me: Ya, but if you want me to go over, then U must help pay for my cab fare also. If you donwan to pay, means u dont want me to go over. Then if u don wan me to go over, then why shud I?
Maurice: -.-! Whatever lo.
03:00 Received a msg from Liting and begun msging crap to her. My bro oso sent me alot of msg and I was msging furiously while trying to flag a cab. (She was complaining abt how disgusting her parents were, and liting was asking me if I saw her at marina bay =.=!)
Someone, the more I walked away from lau pa sat, the more plp I see flagging for cab. So I decided to walk infront of them to steal their cabs. So I walked while msging busily and finally walked like 200m infront of the person who was at the end of the lae and stood there watching all the cabs pass by with that stupid "Hired" sign. Those flashing green lights were all "On call". Ok this is funny but as I type this, it just occured to me that the cabs sound like prostitutes. But nvm, I decided to look around to see where I was, and found myself at George's street. The scenery slowly faded from tall skyscrapers to shorter HDB flats. Totally lost. There were people infront of me still, and they were waving at practically every vehicle passing by, including motor cycles. I thin they're desperate alr.
03:30 I decided to continue walking, and had already gave up trying to flag a cab. Everywhere around me, no matter how ulu the place is whereva I am, every 10 steps infront and behind me, there were like plp flagging for everything, including trishaw riders. So I just walked on to this thing that looked very much like an MRT railway, and decided to go towards the railway and then follow it towards the nearest MRT station, and maybe camp there till the station opens.
Me: Eh, whenva ur leaving, call me, take a cab down to whereva I am, I'd most probably be still loafing srnd somewhere.
Maurice orh ok.
03:45 And then, after walking out to the main road, I took a look around and saw this shopping mall.. Chinatown Point. GREAT! I'm now stuck somewhere in Cheenatown with no sense of direction to where home is as I've almost convinced myself I would have to walk home by then. Suddenly, I heard the cars screaming their horns out into the lively night air and I turned around to see this mad guy in his 20s sitting in the middle of the freaking junction with his arms on his knees and his head on his arms like a stupid stone! The cars all threatened to knock him down and dared o go as close to him as they dared to, and the night air filled with the blast of horns from all sides of the junction! I panicked! Fuck! where is my camera???!!!!! One trishaw rider passed by, and nudged him to get up, but he remained stoned and rooted to the floor like the world's dumbest rock, and plp were like all staring at this crazy guy. Everyone was too stunned to even say anything, and all we could do was just stare. Cars were already moving, trying to zig zag around teh trishaw rider and that crazy guy, and they were like SO CLOSE to being knocked down by cars moving at 70km/h. In the end, that courageous trishaw rider pulled the guy to one side of the pedestrian, which miraculously woke him from his deep slumber, and the trishaw rider ran back to his trishaw and rode it away, with seconds from his trishaw to being smashed into smithereens of junk metal and PVC. A round of applause filled the dark sky and people begun cheering as the hero rode away with better news to tell his wife than any others on his nightly rounds.
OK FINE -.-! Like it's singapore. The trishaw rider rode away and everyone continued walking as if nothing happened before.
04:00 I walked towards Cheenatown point and started calling any friends that were still up to chat with them while I waited for the cheena town mrt station to open, or wait for Maurice to come, depending which came first. Everywhere around me, plp were still flagging for anything, and the taxi stand at cheenatown point was filled with plp, and taxis come at a rate of 1 per 20mins. This group of banglas were camping outside the mrt station, and a few beng wannabes came by, apparently overly excited at the thought of going into the Macs at CTP and spouting vulgarities when they see that the hip Mac was closed alr since 12 am. I think the cleaners purposely left some lights on to attract dumb plp to Macs only to be fooled by the "Closed" sign hanging at the door, and snickering at the stupid plp who were kena fooled.
04:15:
Me: Oi are you coming soon?
Maurice: Hold on ar. (Shouted to his friends: "Come la! Another round of Bridge!")
=_=!
I decided to camp outside Macs and watch all the stupid plp who kena tricked by the lights and then spouting vulgarities when they find that it's closed. Suddenly, the whole place started filling with plp walking to and fro. I tio stun and realised that it had to be the clubs that were all closing at 4, so these clubbers were loafing arnd till the station is opened again.
Btw after walking so far, i SW-ear yet again, that I've lost all the calories I've consumed (must have been possessed at those times) by the chocolates, and the stuff I ate at Lau pa sat.
04:30 I was still talking crap with my bro, and she was complaining abt her parents thinking she go club to what take drugs.
Me: Ya, I intro u the mad guy who was sitting on the road just now la, then your 2 can picnic drugs and sit together on teh road. Maybe you 1 junction, then he 1 junction, so shiok man.
Shirlynn: Yaya tnx..
She thanked me, but I dunno the guy go where liaoz, so sorry bro, cannot intro u your perfect guy.
04:45
Maurice: Eh, I'm leaving now, I trying to flag cab but they all dont want go 3 places leh, cuz want to change shift liaoz. (3 places being cheenatown point, his house, then my house.)
(Sianz la...really must take mrt meh? the station nvr open.)
Actually I don't get it leh. They taxi drivers earn so little already, they still donwan to accept going to 3 places at once cuz it's change shift already. Mad la, got money don wan earn. But seriously, in this society now, which taxi driver is the breadwinner of the family? Ok la, maybe some, but it will most probably be 15-20%? Maybe it's cuz of that that's why they can't be bothered with money. They just wanna work only.
05:10 Finally! The cab arrived!! All around me were either plp who were trying to flag a cab since 30 mins ago, or plp sleeping arnd at the bus stops and mac waiting for the public service to begin, or some plp who really wan dao feng, still not high enough. I got into the cab,
Maurice: (Stretches hand out) Happy New Year!
I stretched my hand out and shoke his.
Me: Pull Your Ear.
