It's the little things that matter..

We're doing it.

I look around me,
But all I seem to see,
Is people going no where,
Expecting sympathy.

It's like we're going through the motions,
Of a scripted destiny.
Tell me where's our inspiration,
If life wont wait,
I guess it's up to me.

Woah!
No, we're not gonna waste another moment in this town.
Woah!
And we won't come back your world is calling out.
Woah!
We'll leave the past in the past,
Gonna find the future.
If misery loves company well,
So long, you'll miss me when I'm gone.

Ooh, ooh, ooh.
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
Ooh, ooh, ooh.

Procrastination, running circles in my head.
While you sit there contemplating,
You wound up left for dead (left for dead)
Life is what happens while you're busy making your excuses.
Another day, another casualty.
And that won't happen to me.

Woah!
No, we're not gonna waste another moment in this town.
Woah!
And we won't come back your world is calling out.
Woah!
We'll leave the past in the past,
Gonna find the future.
If misery loves company well,
So long, you'll miss me when I'm gone.

Ooh, ooh, ooh.
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
When I'm gone-

Let's go!

Won't look back,
When I say goodbye.
I'm gonna leave this a hole behind me,
Gonna take what's mine tonight.
Because every wasted day becomes a wasted chance.
You're gonna wake up feeling sorry,
Because life wont wait,
I guess it's up to you.

Woah!
No, we're not gonna waste another moment in this town.
Woah!
And we won't come back your world is calling out.
Woah!
We'll leave the past in the past,
Gonna find the future.
If misery loves company well,
So long, you'll miss me when I'm gone.

Ooh, ooh, ooh.
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
Simple Plan
When I'm Gone

Why is it that it's so difficult to find blogskins for guys?.. Sigh, does it mean that only girls blog?.. Ok that means that I'm not suppose to?.. O.o Haha..

2008-02-15T23:29:00.005+08:00

Back.. Just got home from a singles night out with twin.. Well, since yesterday was Valentines Day and all.. Yeap.. Haven't seen her in ages so it was nice to finally meet up with her again..

Met up at Bugis and wanted to go for the 4.35pm movie.. But someone couldn't make it, and that someone turned out to be.. Well, me.. -.- Sry twin, haha.. So we had early dinner/ late lunch at Delifrance since both of use hadn't eaten lunch yet.. Beef lasagne x2, Soup of the Day x2 - btw, it was corn soup and twin din't quite like it, and Coffee drinks.. Overall, not too bad but we kinda agreed the lasagne was a lil measly for the amount we paid for.. But yea, food was good!.. (:

We caught P.S. I Love You.. And it's a really, really, absolutely sweet movie.. Funny too cuz it had Pheobe from Friends and she made the show hilarious.. But I've gotta say, it nearly.. I said nearly made me cry like 4 seperate times.. U can go ask twin about that.. I can say that I'm a lil emo but I rather put it as sensitive.. Haha.. But seriously, it's sweet and really touching.. Yup yup.. (:

So yea, that's about it.. One more outing, with Ling this time!.. Since u both passed ur driving, u can drive me around!.. LOL.. Joking.. Anyways, I'm starting driving soon too, come on 25th!.. Oh and this song, Goodbye Apathy by OneRepublic is now stuck in my head.. There we go, emo again.. Right then, that's all for now.. TTFN.. (:

*Njoy the choc and CDs twin..

P.S. I Love You.. (:

2008-02-11T21:38:00.000+08:00

Back to mundane life again I'm afraid but the break from last thurs till sun was definitely a good one.. Yup yup.. Oh and guess what!.. Went back to work today and I saw.. Mr Sham!!!.. LOL.. Of all peeps!.. He's my secondary school teacher and also my cca teacher.. Oh man, we're like so shocked to see each other!.. And he's a LTA too.. Not bad yea.. ;)

And the most surprising thing of all.. OF ALL!.. Was.. My buddy, his name's Too btw, is also from my secondary school!.. He wanted to go up to Mr Sham too but I went first and he was like.. "You know that teacher too?".. Talk about small world huh?..

Anyways, over the week end.. Went to check out T3 and it's uberly cool.. Glass everywhere and it's ultra modern!.. GO SINGAPORE!.. LOL.. Right, that was random.. Anyways, my family then headed to changi beach.. The weirdest/coolest thing we saw.. Whichever u wanna put it as.. The wind was blowing so strongly that when the crows tried flying against it, they looked like they were in slow mo!.. Like in the matrix kinda slow mo.. Yea, like I said weird.. Haha.. And in the end, they were blown sideways because of the wind.. Like the way crabs walk..

Haa, anyways short post.. (:

2008-02-08T21:04:00.000+08:00

HELLO WORLD!!!

Finally my dad's back with the com which means I can go online again!.. It's been ages, well 3 weeks to be exact, but still it was a long wait.. And thanks to twinnie for helping me notify that this blog ain't dead.. ;) Just temporarily offline.. LOL..

Yeap, my other com broke down so no online stuff for 3 weeks, cept for the few times that my iPod was charged but other than that, nada.. OMG, so much to blog about the last 3 weeks but I kinda forgot most of it.. -.- Thank my lil brain for that.. Haha..

But Chinese New Year was a lotta FUN though!.. Yup yup.. Reunion dinner the other day was pretty much standard, meaning same as every other year.. Still loved the salmon that's in the dishes every year.. (: Oh, dad came back from Thailand on reunion dinner day itself so yea, so glad that he's back home..

And on New Years' Day itself, it got better!.. Well, I guess to me it's not so much about the ang baos anymore.. Partly because you already have an idea of how much is gonna be in it since it's about the same every year.. Guess it's more about well, family.. Just catching up with everyone during new year and not forgetting christmas.. Cause everyone's growing up now and it's like *POOF*.. We're all grown up now.. Used to remember when we're still lil..

Right I'm not gonna go into all the squirmy details but you get the point.. Catching up.. Yeap.. (: Was quite nice, wait.. Make that cool actually cause although we don't meet that often since like the whole family is so huge and all, yet somehow.. We still clicked.. Aunties, uncles, cousins and all.. Yup yup.. Oh and one of my cousin's getting married in March.. She's like the first of all the cousins so that'll be interesting to see..

So yea, cathcing up's great and I'm not gonna go into the details but yea.. Janice wasn't there though.. She's still in Canada studying for her degree.. She'll be back in May so yea.. Oh oh, and like almost of us, make that 9 of us went to watch The Kite Runner at Cathay after the dinner.. Caught the 9.50pm show and yea, we were kinda late.. LOL.. It was a good show, quite touching, emotional and all - but not enough to make me cry.. ;) but I didn't quite understand it in the end.. >.< Haha.. But yea, interesting and different from the regular shows.. So yeap, that's pretty much about the new years' celebration and all..

Bought OneRepublic and Colbie Calliat's CDs.. Brilliant and it's kinda turning me to the emo side again.. Haha.. But I'm alright, just some of the songs.. Yeap.. Right, so the spelling correcter isn't working so forgive my mis-spelling of words.. *if any.. ;)

TTFN for now.. (:

2008-01-14T21:27:00.000+08:00

Official first day as a medical instructor today.. Woo Hoo!.. So much stuff to absorb!.. Head's really spinning now and I think it will be for the next few days to come.. Fellow instructors there a.k.a my seniors, they're way cool and uberly friendly.. Guess you gotta be a lil fierce when taking a course as an instructor but when it all finishes, yea.. Great people to hang around with!.. (:

So things that happened today.. Found out I gotta do swift duty, which basically means that I've gotta stay over night with no claims of off.. -.- Secondly, I gotta head on over to MTV on friday.. Good news, be there by 9am!.. WOOTS!.. LOL.. And lastly, been selected to go for driver's course in feb!.. Free class 3!.. WOOTS X 2!.. OMG man!.. LOL..

2008-01-13T21:54:00.000+08:00

Hmmm.. Still kinda bumped out looking back on friday.. Bet M is totally disappointed in me.. Not gonna elaborate on it but if u know then u know if not then.. Mouth's shut.. Zippo.. I guess I make bad decisions especially when I'm like just suddenly given a task.. That's maybe why, at the start of the medic course, I kinda hesitated to go to the fire stations.. "Kinda".. Anyhow, yea.. Still thinking bout it.. I could kill myself for what I said.. Arghh.. Then again, it's over right?.. But why does it keep on replaying in my mind?.. =/

2008-01-13T20:43:00.000+08:00

Right then, this is for twinnie.. Maybe I should start calling her M from now on with the short forms that are going around.. So anyhow, she did post a test or question or erm.. Whatever u wanna call it.. It's below..

Tag the words "ME" in my tagboard with ur name and (in my next blog post at the top) I'll:

1. Tell you why I friended you.
2. Associate you with something - a song, a colour, a photo, etc.
3. Tell you something I like about you.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.

2008-01-13T15:03:00.000+08:00

WARNING: LONG POST

Yeap like the title says, this is gonna be a long one!.. Alright, now that I finally finished the post.. It's not exactly that long but yea.. Haven't been blogging in awhile and that's partly due to the fact that I've tried to post 3 times and on every occasion.. Com hangs, having trouble with the internet and blogger isn't friendly to my iPod.. LOL.. You can ask twin, she got a first hand experience of that.. ;)

Anyways, MEDIC COURSE IS OVER!.. Woo Hoo!.. 7 weeks of blood (LOADS OF IT!), sweat (EVEN MORE) and tears!.. Come to think of it, it was actually pretty fast.. Yeap.. Passed out on the 11th of Jan.. And well, I'm glad that I got the post I wanted!.. Medical Instructor.. (: But kinda sad too, majority of them are heading to fire stations and I won't be seeing them for probably a year from now.. ): I mean, it's been 7 weeks and we're so bonded, not to mention my own company and platoon mates.. 14 weeks together man!.. (: Gonna miss u guys but I wanna wish u all the best!.. WE WANT BLOOD YEA!.. ;)

Hmmm, final exercise was way cool!.. Night, pitch black and I seriously mean that.. Like closing your eyes and walking around.. Yeap, and like Sha said, P1 IC.. (: Thanks dude!.. LOL.. All you guys were great too!.. Tiring but nonetheless, awesome experience!.. I wanna do it again!.. LOL.. And "Prize Awarding " ceremony on POP day was even better!.. You guys know what I'm talking about.. ;) So yea, that's basically it for the 105th Medical Orderly Course.. Yup yup.. (:

Outing with twin on friday was FUN!.. LOL.. Haven't met up with her in awhile but I gotta say that we still clicked.. (: Met up at Bugis and oh yea, car rides on the Ferrari.. Still awesome!.. (: LOL.. Dinner at The Soup Spoon was not too bad.. The erm, I CAN EAT A COW meal was filling!.. Definitely!.. Manda said it kinda sounds like Ling!.. =X Haha.. But yea, their mushroom soup was thick and rich but erm.. Kinda too much after awhile.. But topping that of with half a sandwich of smoked salmon, deliciously yummy!.. I'd recommend it.. Yup yup..

But what happened to Fiona after that well, I really wanna kill myself for saying what I did.. Taxi drivers?.. Robby, what were u thinking!?.. -.- But yea, I'm not gonna elaborate on that but everything turned out fine.. Thanks to Royce too.. And sry for waking you up just like that dude.. =X

MOC outing yest to watch the Instructors performance at Taka.. Sad to say that there was non of that.. ): There were suppose to be 3 shows.. 3pm, 6pm and 8pm.. Looks like at the very last moment, both 6pm and 8pm shows were cancelled.. And we were all planning to catch the 6pm show.. Boo Hoo man!.. Anyways, we did manage to meet up with them, us and the instructors.. Was like different seeing everyone in home clothes since we were all so used to our no. 4..

So anyhow, had dinner at Far East.. Sakura but kinda had to wait for like an hour or so.. We were actually wondering if they were gonna call at all but in the end.. Yeap, they did.. Table for 16 u see!.. O.o your thinking but yea, table for 16.. Dinner was fun, LOL.. Lotsa stuff to chat about.. Kinda like the last time we're all gonna see each other cuz when shifts comes out, I don't it's gonna be easy for us to meet up.. Yeap.. Oh and I can't help calling them instructors although they said that we could call them by their names now.. Plus I'm an instructor now too so.. But yea, kinda weird.. And we were like picking up and dropping off ppl along the way.. So that's another thing to take note of?.. Ok, that was random but I noticed that.. Haha..

We decided to chill at Mind's Cafe after dinner but my gosh it was packed!.. And the waiting list stretched till 1am!.. Like woah!.. Saturday's are like kinda bad times to go out.. Especially at Orchard!.. So in the end, tcc was just on the opp side.. Chilled for awhile and we were all off.. So yeap, that's about it.. All parting ways but always MOC 105.. So my fate's sealed then, next 2 years at Boon Lay.. Good luck and all the best to you guys!.. (:

P.S. 4 x 4 cube twin!.. (:

2008-01-01T22:12:00.000+08:00

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Right it's almost 2nd Jan and this is knida late but.. Happy 08 to all u guys and thanks for a great 07!.. (: Yup yup.. Man, that's one year gone just like that..

So anyhow, bro's birthday was yesterday too.. Year end baby.. Celebrated his birthday at the beach.. Changi, and no wrong thoughts from u guys ok.. LOL.. Had fun and all but one thing stood out.. It was absolutely freezing cold I tell u!.. Oh gosh the weather, infinite wind!.. I had to hide inside the tent just to escape the coldness.. And wouldn't u know, I fell asleep.. -.- Luckily I woke up before it hit 00:00 of 1st Jan.. So yea.. Chilled there till about 1 plus before we headed back home..

Hmm.. My new years' resolution for 08.. I've been thinking about this for awhile and that's because almost every single lil soul has been going around asking that question.. I don't wanna be emo and all but I think I've got mine and that's gonna be.. My new year's resolution for 08 is to find myself.. Yes, I know.. I know, it's ~~very~~ extremely vague but that's pretty much it.. Yup yup.. Right then, back to "NORMAL" lie again tmr.. 4.45am mornings.. Early so off I go.. See ya.. (:

2007-12-27T21:10:00.000+08:00

Right, back again and this is cause whatever that I wanted to post yesterday suddenly just vanished when I was about out to publish it.. Talk about being suay.. Haa.. Anyways, Christmas Day.. (: So Christmas was just over ~~yesterday~~, I mean 2 days ago and honestly I've got to say that it was one the best, if not the best Christmas that I could have ever asked for.. Spent Christmas this year with Judith.. (: Funny how we actually decided to meet on Christmas itself.. Was Sunday if I'm not wrong and we were like, what'd doing on x'mas eve.. Meeting up with friends/ family gathering.. And on Christmas itself?.. Nothing/ nothing.. Meet?, sure.. And yeap, that's how it got along.. LOL..

Met up at Douby Ghaut and I totally felt so damn guilty for what I did, or rather what I didn't do.. She got me chocs you see.. Like how swt of her to get a Chrsitmas pressie for me.. Probably cause I was saying that she was tempting me too much over msn.. LOL.. And that bloody Robby didn't get nothing!.. -.- OMG man!.. ROBBY!.. Jud, I so totally owe you one ok!.. (: Promise, the next time we meet!.. We took a stroll down to Orchard after that.. Oh, they closed the streets this Christmas season and you could like walk on them.. It's way cool, I mean like when can you walk in the middle of the streets and come on, it's Orchard road!.. Yeap.. Coffee beaned for awhile.. Chit chatted, caught up and stuff.. *And hey, I still think that Starbucks is way better but I'm kinda tempted to try Coffee Bean after your persuasion.. ;) Haha.. Trained down to Suntec next..

Met up with my friend "Harry" at the tour area.. We got up the bus and for the first time in our lives I think, we seriously felt like tourists in our own lil country!.. The bus that we took was one of those topless open air kinda tour buses.. Way cool!.. I mean like seriously, if any of you have the time.. Have a go at it!.. It's absolutely stunning, the views that you get!.. The bus took us into Sentosa, walked around a lil before watching the Songs of the Sea.. It's a replacement for the musical fountain except, it was a whole lot better!.. Fountains, lasers, fire balls and not forgetting.. FIREWORKS!.. We were stunned when they actually shot the fireworks!.. And not surprisingly, full house and it was a public holiday too.. It was jammed packed!.. So yea anyhow, show was great!.. If u guys haven't seen it yet, go!.. LOL.. (:

Walked around Siloso Beach first and headed back to vivo after that.. Waves in the night.. Lovely.. (: Dinner and back home.. Well, pics are below and I'll let them do the talking.. (:

The Christmas tree was like the last thing I took before my cam died.. But the most unforgiving and irritating thing that happened.. Turns out that when I got home to charge that batteries, the cam was using AA batteries.. O.o Like if I knew it sooner, I could've just bought it!.. Arghh.. How dumb can a person get.. -.-

And this song is so totally stuck in my head now.. Just thought it made a nice touch to a great day.. Lyrics are below.. (:

Late night, driving home together
And at red lights we press our lips together
And we're holding tight now
Slow it down now
Let's take our time
Let the moment last
Until it feels right
Holding back
And not getting to carried away
Let the music fade

Cause you are the brightest star
I'm in love with who you are
And you are the brightest star
I'm lost without your love

We are in each others arms
Just like a movie scene
Cause as we're leaning in
The light decides to turn green
Me and you together
This is getting better
Just butterflies won't do
I don't want just red lights
I want more of these nights
Baby I love you

Cause you are the brightest star
I'm in love with who you are
And you are the brightest star
I'm lost without your love

You and me is what matters most
It's not the intimacy that brings me
Closer to you...

Between the Tress
White Lines & Red Lights
The Story And The Song

P.S. To Mr Red Umbrella Man, thanks so much dude!.. And ur like seriously the best tour guide!.. I mean seriously, the dude knows his stuff!.. And to Judith too, great outing and best Christmas ever!.. What more can I ask for.. Thanks u guys.. (:

2007-12-26T21:03:00.000+08:00

OMG!.. Injection lesson today and boy was that their way of handing us a Christmas present.. Theory was up first followed by the practical.. And as fate would have it, it was more or less the repetition of what happened during IV lesson..

Right, when it got to my turn.. I asked my partner to inject me first.. I have no idea why but I would always wanna go first for this kinda things.. O.o Yeap, go figure.. LOL.. So anyways, I was given 4ml or injection water.. Bet your like thinking, it's just 4ml.. No biggie right?.. Think again.. In terms of that amount of liquid going into your body.. IT'S ALOT!!!..

I could feel the needle going into body, poked the skin, passing through it and on into the muscle.. Guess since it's almost every week that we get poked, having a needle in the body feels.. Well, normal already.. The really, and I mean really painful part came when the water was injected in.. At first it didn't really hurt.. Controlled the pain, slowly.. And it built up to a point where it seriously got intense.. How'd I react your asking?.. Well, picture this.. If you watched the movie Home Alone 3, the part where the rat crawled into the baddies pants and the other baddie took a baseball bat to whack his wankie?.. Yeap, as embarrassing as it may sound, that was the sound that I made.. -.-

And pretty soon, I was attracting a crowd.. Since all my course mates were sitting down, their heads popped up like mushrooms from the ground.. LOL.. They wanted to see what all the commotion was all about.. And I think I kinda made a few of them scared from my reactions cause honestly, me and my buddy were one of the first few to do it.. =X And a few of them laughed too.. They said my reaction was priceless and it was a waste not to record any of it down.. One of them even said it looked like the Predator from the way my mouth was moving.. Haha..

So after all that, sat down and before u know it.. Face and lips turned pale.. AGAIN.. Sigh.. I must seriously stop doing this.. Yeap, so another day of pain, all in the life of a medic.. But honestly, it was seriously fun and if I had to do it all over again.. No hesitations!.. (:

2007-12-23T15:26:00.000+08:00

Oh boy, guess what I woke up to this morning.. Try having a mozzie bite on your eyelid for a wake up call.. Ouchies!.. And it was so freaking uncomfortable.. Arhh..

So Christmas is just 2 days away!.. LOL.. Can't hardly wait anymore.. And Royce's birthday is tmr, followed by Liqin's and my lil bro's birthday.. And hello 2008 after that.. Seems so fast that '07 has just gone by.. Oh, and heard from Ling that twin is coming back tmr.. Apparently, she's in Langkawi now with her family.. And she didn't tell me.. ): LOL.. So yea, and NS is still packed with tests and more tests.. 11 Jan come on!.. (:

2007-12-22T11:17:00.000+08:00

Hey peeps.. Alright, I know it's been almost 2 weeks since I've last updated this and a long while since I've logged onto faceboo, not to mention msn.. *email messages unread = 486.. O.o Yea, lots to catch up on.. I've got tons of ppl telling to pls update my blog so here goes.. And I'm real sry twin.. >.< Hehe..

Right, lemme see.. Looking at my timetable now.. Well, last week's most memorable lesson was.. INFUSION!.. Also know as IV management.. If u still have no idea what I'm talking about, it simply means hooking up a needle to your vein and yea.. Ouch!.. And we had to take turns.. Partner and I.. Honestly speaking, when they told us this on the first week.. I was totally dreading this lesson.. But when that day came, I was like.. It's just a needle, seconds, maybe minutes of pain but.. When am I gonna experience this again.. *Not so soon I hope.. But anyways yea, lessons are lessons right?.. Alright, I know what you're thinking.. Robby's a total sadist right?.. Well, yea I am!.. =X Haha.. From a guy that says the SAW movies are cute, what do u expect!.. ;)

So anyways, when it was my turn to be.. I'll use the word "POKED".. Oh gosh it hurt!.. I'm not gonna act all macho and say it didn't but it really did hurt.. I had to bite down on my arm to ease that pain.. And my partner ahd to do it on me TWICE!.. The first time, he missed the vein.. It wasn't his fault though.. It's called running vein where when the needle goes in, the skin feels the pain and since your entire body is a living thing.. The vein knows that there's something coming and runs away.. Cool right!.. LOL.. You learn tons of things in medic course.. So yea, our encik said that since he missed the vein, the needle poked the flesh and since my partner was nervous, his hand was shaking and the needle nearly went out through the other of the skin.. >.< Sorry, if it's too detailed and stuff.. Some of you guys might be squirming by now..

So, the second try went pretty much alright.. Yeap, needle got into the vein and everything went smoothly.. (: But when it was my turn, I went to get the stuff that was needed.. Halfway through, I felt light headed.. Almost wanting to faint.. Instructors told me to lay down and they had to gimme O2.. They said my face was totally pale and white, including my lips.. How embarrassing!.. Hehe.. No one else except me.. Sigh.. LOL.. But I have to say, 100% O2 was absolutely WOO!.. You guys gotta try it sometime!.. (: So yea, after recovering and stuff.. It was my turn to poke my friend.. And yeap, same thing happened to me.. Running vein.. And the second time I had to do it, I really pity my friend for making him do this.. He had to twist his arm around since that was where the other good vein was.. But from then on, everything worked out fine.. Yeap, till today just a blue black at my arm to remind me of that lesson.. Other than that, it was pretty much FUN!.. As weird as that may sound.. And if you asked me to do it all over again, I seriously wouldn't mind.. (:

So that was last week, this week on the other hand.. Woah.. MATERNITY!.. That's right, we learnt how to assist the paramedics when a mum is giving birth.. Seriously, I think that's seriously one of the coolest things to do man!.. Alright, now I feel like I'm becoming one of the doctors from grey's anatomy.. LOL.. Anyways, they did show us an actual video of a mother giving birth.. Everyone in the room was like.. Eww!.. I think I was the only one that went Ooo.. Honestly when I saw that video, I really wanted to be there to help deliver the baby.. I don't really know how to describe that feeling.. Hope u guys aren't throwing anymore "You are sick" darts onto my face right now.. But yea, way cool!.. Sry guys but I don't think I'm gonna post pictures of what we did in camp.. It might get me in trouble so yea, sorry..

Anyways, NS life aside.. I got my iPod Touch!.. Last week to be exact.. Haha.. I'm so totally loving it.. Wi-Fi and all.. And cover flow rules!.. Went out with Royce yesterday and his hands were all over it.. And I nearly drove him to the point of getting one.. Just that he wanted to see if his sis would get him one for Christmas first.. Yup yup.. And we agreed on one thing, he provides good places to makan and I provide nice songs for him to listen too.. LOL.. He came over last night at 11 plus just to get songs from my playlist.. Respect him for doing that man.. And I hope that your dad isn't too mad with u dude.. (:

Right, dinner yest was awesome!.. And it was extra special too since it was my grandma's birthday!.. *hugs and loves granny!.. (: It's seriously been awhile since I got time for myself and family.. Yea trust me, NS is a hell of a lot more busy than I thought it would be..

Dinner was at one of the coffee shops at simpang.. Food was coming and coming and coming!.. Even though there was like god knows how many dishes going in and out, *I lost count.. It didn't really fill me up despite the fact that we had fried rice, lemon chicken, deep fried prawns, tom yam soup and black pepper crabs! etc. ect. I skipped the crabs though but that wasn't much help too.. I just murdered my throat again right after recovering from an 8 week cough and sore throat.. Yea, bet ur thinking.. Use ur brain Robby, think before u eat.. LOL.. But yea, I controlled ok.. And overall, not too bad.. Yup yup.. Lil cousin Lydia was there too.. She's seriously cute lah.. Haha..

We headed off to Changi beach next.. One word.. COLD!.. Yea, it was freezing!.. Like what u would call natural air-con.. Gosh.. And not to mention when I was near the railings, the waves went well over the rails and u guessed it.. I got soaked.. -.- Add that to cold, blowing and thundering wind.. Well, u get the point.. Oh and not too long after that.. It rained!.. LOL..

So yea, almost all of us got drenched after that.. Ur probably thinking by this time - Where's the cake?.. Well, headed home and it was cake time!.. (: Well, must say that family is still very much important to me.. No matter what u call it.. Mamas boy or what-not.. I don't really care.. LOL.. So yea, that's basically it.. (:

2007-12-07T21:57:00.000+08:00

Well, well.. Another week gone just like that.. 5 more weeks till medic course ends.. So erm, more pumping this week.. Like whatever we do ain't good enough.. I'm not gonna complain no more, it's more like getting used to it already.. Or rather, numb to it.. And complains are negative.. So, no more complaining!.. ;)

Right, enough bout that.. This week so far, filled with tests.. Brain's been really working this week.. LOL.. Everything tested and hopefully passed so we can get our 100 bucks extra allowance.. Skill allowance they call it.. Yeap.. CPR and stuff.. The thing is, stay cool and whatever not.. Cause if u were to freak, and I mean really freak.. U'll just go blank.. And to think it's not the real thing yet!.. Seriously wondering how man next time when the real thing comes.. So yea.. Stay cool Robby, stay cool..

Twin's been bugging me to blog so here it is.. Haha.. Everything I've been telling her so far has been like freaking her out.. So I guess from now on, I'll just blog it.. "DISCLAIMER - READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!".. =P Well today, another session of gore.. As usual.. This time, hmmm.. Stab wounds to the neck, and mind u they showed us real pictures with the knife jutting out from the neck.. And for the icing on the cake, a guy holding a firecracker and it EXPLODED in front of his face.. It looked more like he ate the damn, oops I mean.. The.. The.. Well, it looked like he placed the firecracker in his mouth!.. And BOOM!.. Face was totally gone!.. Only the inerts visible!.. Ok ppl, yes.. Robby is still here.. Not to worry.. (:

All this exposure to this stuff.. Kinda well, used to it.. I mean, at least it prepares us for the REAL thing out there.. Yup yup.. Oh, had Hep B jabs today too.. Flu Vaccine last week, Hep B this week, infusion next week - the one they put the needle in your vein, the week after that - injection on friends.. Right your thinking, "friends".. And after that week, 2nd Hep B jabs.. Needles in and out every week.. I'm really getting used to it now.. LOL..

So yea, that's this week all wrapped up.. Had a dream the other night, bout Ling and twin.. Sigh.. Must be missing them already.. TWIN!.. OUTING SOON PLS!.. HAHAHA.. Yeap, well.. Movie or dinner with Royce and Liqin tmr.. And I'm not sure if I can make it now.. Hope for the best.. Right ppl, that's it from me.. TTFN!.. (:

2007-12-01T16:21:00.000+08:00

Just so lazy to blog nowadays.. Haa.. But I'm feeling guilty so yea, I'll start a post now.. So it's official, I got into the medic vocation.. Apparently the one that I wanted but.. I'm kinda having second thoughts now..

Gotta wake up everyday at 4.45am, catch the 6am train and reach CDA by 0729hrs.. And I usually reach home at say 7, 8 pm.. Once or twice a week rather, lessons till 9pm plus.. O.o Yea, late I know.. By the time I get back.. Don't even remind me.. So yea, that's my life for the next 7 weeks.. Wait, 6 rather.. Now that one has already gone by..

Medic course, for those of u that think it's a slack vocation.. Think again!.. We still get pumped!.. Other than that, first week wasn't too bad.. Lotsa interesting stuff.. Yup yup.. Gory, gruesome and scary.. Well, kinda.. We learnt like how to treat a patients tummy that has intestines coming out and stuff.. Yea, all that in the first week.. And twin is really hating me for telling her that and all.. LOL.. But Debs is seriously loving it!.. O.o Go figure!..

So yea, that's just the first week.. Oh, and I had a flu vaccine just yest.. Next week, Hep B and 3 weeks after that, 2nd Hep B.. Really starting to dislike or rather, get used to needles going and out of my body..

Hmm.. Cough seems ok compared to yest.. Just went for an X-ray this morning to check out my lungs.. Since the doc said my 7-8 weeks on-and-off cough is something serious.. She said I might have asthma!.. Errr.. Nono!.. ): Results on tuesday so I'm seriously praying hard that every thing's gonna be alright.. Nearly cried when I heard she said that I had asthma.. But yea, manda, ling and jas cheered me up.. Thanks u guys.. (:

2007-11-25T21:07:00.000+08:00

So, met up with Debs and Nic with my sis yesterday.. Ages since I last saw them.. And well, glad to see that they're still the same old peeps.. (: Just that my throat absolutely killed me.. Wasn't able to talk properly too.. Boo hoo.. ):

Trained down to orchard next where I met Liqin and Royce.. And yeap, haven't seen they in awhile too.. Liqin had a dance thingy at yishun.. But dear old Royce was tired so we didn't go.. Hehe.. Heard that Fiona won 2nd place so yea.. (:

Alright, so Royce and I headed down to Marina BK for dinner.. And I was totally blind I tell u.. I was like.. "Where is BK?".. And it was screaming right in front of me and I couldn't see it!.. *blames the cough..

Oh well, what happened next was like totally unexpected..

I

ATE

A

TRIPLE

WHOPPER!!!

Yea u heard me right!.. I ordered a western whopper meal and topped up a patty.. So which means X2.. But somehow, another one found it's way in!.. LOL.. Mind u I already had large onion rings, a large lemon barley, taro pie and a hershey's sundae pie waiting.. What more a TRIPLE WHOPPER!.. The size of that thing.. UNBELIEVABLE!.. It was immense.. At the start, was seriously just staring at it.. How'd that huge thing gonna fit into this lil guy's tummy.. And I've never thrown away a burger before so I wasn't gonna let it be the first.. Alright alright, I'll let the pictures do the talking now..

Anyway, gotta get up early tmr.. 6am at tampines mrt.. Joy of living in the east and having ur training all the way to the west.. -.- So yea, I'll know for sure if I got into the medic course.. Wish me luck.. (: Ritey, see ya ppl..

2007-11-23T10:54:00.000+08:00

POP!!!
That's right!.. Passed out already!.. WOOT!.. NO longer a recruit no more!.. (:

Had my passing out parade yesterday, 22nd November.. After a 10 click route march and going through the SOC one last time.. Alright, ppl from tekong might say that's peanuts to what they're going through but for me.. It doesn't really matter.. Recruit life is over and on to the next phase for me.. (:

Like my twin said, yea.. I haven't blogged since I last booked out so here's to making up for it.. Yes yes, u got me feeling guilty twin.. Haha.. Tons of stuff and absolutely mean TONS OF STUFF happened over the last 2 weeks before we passed out..

There was the games competition where sadly, charlie company got trashed 6-0.. -.- And I was one of the players inside the team.. Arghh, should have stuck to rock climbing.. LOL.. Oh and foot drill competition too.. Was really like super cool getting to really see what it really was like being in the foot drill team.. Uniforms all starch and feeling like cardboard.. Seriously, cardboard!.. No kidding!.. And when we donned the uniform, we couldn't even bend our knees!.. So yea, that's foot drill for u!.. (:

And I was well, not sure if I should use the word happy or disappointed, to be chosen for one of the peeps to represent Charlie company in the best physique competition.. Was like delighted at first but after I knew that we had to be in our swimming trunks in front of the whole battalion!.. O.o That's right.. And it only got worst when I found out or rather saw the other competitors!.. They were seriously.. Well, BIG!.. And I was like a lil mouse in the there.. Haha.. But yea, overall, a fun experience!.. Nervous but fun!.. Definitely.. (:

And on Tuesday, we had to go through CA!.. That's Chemical Agent for u guys!.. We had to don those gas mask kinda suits.. Couldn't really breath properly and I honestly though that I was gonna die.. Seriously.. Lack of O2 to the brain, now I know what it feels like.. And when we brought inside the gas chamber, we were to sit on the benches.. And they set off the TEAR GAS.. Mind u, it's only 10% of what the riot police uses but the experience.. Well, once in a life time!.. When the pellets were lit, white smoke filled the room.. they told us to remove our hoods.. Then, u could feel it.. Cold needles poking ur skin, u wanna scratch but we're strictly told not to or it'll become worst..

We were told to stand in front of the mike, take out our masks and to say our full name and IC number.. Sounds frightening doesn't it?.. But it's part of training so yea.. I only made it to Tay Muhammad Rob and I was gone!.. The smoke's something like sparkles kinda smoke.. U can feel it making its way through ur nose, mouth and into ur throat and lungs.. I didn't even open my eyes and walked into a wall on the way out!.. Yea, after that.. Headed to the drain and spat everything out.. Tears came out uncontrollably and so did the saliva.. HORRIBLE I tell u!.. I really appreciated air after that experience.. Yeap..

Alright so overall here's what went down, prize wise for our company..

Basketball - 2nd place! (Yea, all of us were shocked!)
Rock climbing - 2nd and 3rd place!
Sepak Takrow - 1st place!
Best physique - 3rd place! (Go Eugene!)

Foot Drill - 1st place! (CHAMPIONS!!!)

So yea, that wraps it up for my recruit life.. Oh oh, and I received the Best in CD Skills for my company!.. (: Uberly HAPPY with that!.. And Nadzri, one guy from my company received the Best Physical Training and Best Recruit for our company and also the Best in Battalion!.. Go Charlie company!.. Recruit life, what an experience.. Memories I'll keep forever and new friends that I've met!.. Thanks to everyone that made this such a memorable experience!.. (:

P.S. Heard from an insider that I've been posted to a medic vocation.. So that means 8am to 6pm everyday for me!.. Gotta go back on Monday to sign the vocation list and from there I'll know for sure.. So yeap, praying for the best now.. (:

2007-11-17T23:39:00.000+08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LING!
Alright, alright.. I'm sorry for this being almost a week late but I wanted to save this post just for u.. And it's not parking alright.. So vulgar!.. LOL.. Anyways, yea.. HAPPY 19th to u Ling!.. And we've known each other since sec school!.. So long already and look at how time flies!.. Miss those bus stop gang days and although I sorta MIA-ed for a while, glad to see every thing's alright now..

Wee!.. And Happy Deepavali!.. LOL.. Alright, booked out yesterday and I'm booking in tonight again.. And guess what?.. Booking out tmr, again.. Like -.- Can't they just make us stay in yesterday and book out today for a long weekend?.. Sigh.. Yea, enough bout that..

So yea, this week has been pretty interesting actually.. We had to go over to MTV, that's Mandai Training Village for u guys.. ;) They were gonna teach us about tunneling.. So all of us ended up digging through the ground using nothing but shovels, spades and chisels.. It was seriously tiring but a lotta fun too!.. (: Especially when the made us crawl through the tunnels we dug.. And the instructors just had to pour water through making it even more muddy!.. But yea, like I said.. It was fun and really, u could feel that there was teamwork.. Yup yup.. (:

Other than that, food wise.. They served briyani this week.. It was like heaven!.. Plus the chicken and whatnot together with it.. OMG!.. YUMMY!.. I mean we have never gotten such kinda food ever since well, enlistment day.. So I think u get what I mean.. (:

Oh Tuesday sucked a lot.. Cause we were suppose to go for a soccer match and some of us were not allowed too.. Drill competition practice.. Like -.- man.. So yea, that was like the super disappointing thing this week.. Just wanted to chill with my bunk mates during the match but guess that's the price u pay for it.. Oh well..

Got a few pictures of the tunneling exercise we did below.. Yeap.. Alright then, that's bout it.. (:

Crawling out of the tunnel that we dug.. Mud spattered face!.. =P

Platoons 7 and 9 with our instructors..

Guess where I'm at.. (:

Drill instructor Syawal and I.. Gayness moment caught on camera.. LOL..

2007-11-03T21:44:00.000+08:00

Hello!.. (: Back to blogging again.. Was a lil lazy last week so I totally skipped blogging.. But I'm back now.. Yup yup..

Right, so how have things been u ask.. Well, here's the break down.. Had a First Aid Test this week.. And results.. *Drum roll please.. Tied for 2nd place in my platoon.. 87/100.. (: 1st guy got 91.. -.- But good for him.. Haha.. Also did my IPPT this this week.. Well, on Friday rather.. Pull ups - 12 | Sit ups - 42 | Standing Broad Jump - 236cm | Shuttle Run - 9.8s | 2.4km Run - 10:24.. Overall, silver.. =/ My running really pull me down.. Needed a timing below 9:44 for a gold.. There's another session next week.. I'll give it a try to see if I can do it.. ;) Oh, and I fell on my hip bone during the standing broad jump.. *ouchies.. For the other stations, just did enough to get 5 points.. (:

And I went for a medic interview this week too.. Not very well done I have to say.. Just crossing my fingers now and hope that all goes well.. Yup yup.. So yea, that's bout it from camp.. More stuff than that but just too much to blog.. =X Hehe.. Facebook is seriously flooding my inbox.. Can u say 50 emails per week!.. O.o I'm boggled too!.. LOL..

Anyways, my timetable for next week looks like this.. Tuesday - Soccer match at Bishan stadium | Wednesday - Bookout | Thursday - Bookin | Friday - Bookout.. It's that slack I know.. LOL.. Guys in tekong must be so hating SCDF right now.. =P

Yup yup, that's about it.. Oh oh, I got selected for Footdrill Competition too!.. It's tough but I kinda like it.. Plus, benefits include no morning 5BX!.. How can anyone pass up on that!.. (:

Rightey, till next week then.. Byebye.. (:

P.S. 20 more days till POP!.. Start counting u guys!.. Both a week closer to freedom.. (:

2007-10-21T00:27:00.000+08:00

They say silence kills but to us, it's just hearing the wind go by

2007-10-20T23:24:00.000+08:00

Hello to all!.. (: First off, I just wanna say a big thank you to all u guys for the birthday wishes.. Whether it was on my tag board or msges sent via sms.. Thank you guys sooo much!.. Really appreciate it!.. Thank you guys for remembering!.. And thank you for the pressies too!.. Speaking of presents, guess what I got for my present in camp.. GUARD DUTY!.. -.- I didn't tell no one bout my bdae, ok maybe a hand full but yea.. Talk about being lucky huh..

Stuff in NS is pretty much ok.. Just a lil tired from this weeks training.. Body is sore too.. Especially the legs!.. I HATE wearing boots!.. And 2.4km timing sucks.. 11:35.. But how am I to train?.. Just so tired when I get back home.. Hope that training given to us will be enough..

Alright, short post.. Gonna go to bed soon.. And booking in tmr.. 5 more weeks!.. (: Ok, see ya peeps.. Byebye.. (:

P.S. Sorry twin bout yesterday..

2007-10-14T15:40:00.000+08:00

Oh before I forget, I'm in the 105th intake.. Kinda special to me i guess.. Rearrange those numbers and u get 10 and 15.. 10 being october and 15 being the day.. My birthday!.. (: Ok, that was random but yea.. Hee..

And suddenly, it all feels quiet once again

2007-10-14T15:02:00.000+08:00

Alright, I have no idea why but my body feels like crap now.. Itching everywhere, sores and other whatnot's.. Just tired I guess.. Cause even though I've booked out less than a week, haven't been getting enuff sleep.. Eye bags and dark spots!.. Arghh..

Anyways, went out with Royce yest.. He wanted to go get some singlets and stuff.. And since TM and CS had most of their shops under renovation, BnG and Isetan, Boo Hoo!.. No place to go shop.. ): But it was off to my house though.. Hari Raya visiting and all.. And my dad's friend was there together with his whole family and one of their sons was in CD too!.. (: Medic and just got some info on how to get in there and how his experience was so far.. But I gotta say, all of us clicked!.. (:

Like it was so easy to talk to each and everyone!.. Hope u liked the food dude!.. (: Planned to meet later on at TM.. Wanted to head down to Suntec.. So yea, met up with him.. We were walking round Marina and all of a sudden!.. BOO YA!.. LIQIN CAME OUT FROM NOWHERE!.. That's 1 - 2 dude!.. =P LOL.. Ok, yea.. SURPRISE ROBBY!.. Haha.. I get what it feels like now.. But it was nice seeing her though.. Yea, nice.. (:

So Royce got his singlet and got some drinks at starbucks and off we went to the esplanade.. They had some thing going on at the stage and it was belly dancing.. LOL.. The tune was just sooo good to dance to!.. Yea, so we chilled by the bay.. Mostly talking bout NS and stuff.. Yup yup.. (:

So I guess this is how it's gonna be from now on.. Meetings only on weekends.. ): Kinda sad but what can I do huh.. Well, 6 more weeks till POP and hopefully a medic post and I'll be home everyday.. (:

Why's everyone turning sad lately.. Manda, Ling and now me.. RAH3.. Yea well, I don't think I should really talk bout Ling's and Manda's, cause I'm not sure if I'm allowed to but as for me.. Ok, I don't mean to say this out loud but.. Birthday in camp.. ): Yeap, few hours time and I'm booking in and Bdae's tmr.. BIG BIG BOO HOO!.. ): But I sure won't be opening my mouth.. Some things are better off not saying.. ;)

Alright, till next week then.. Bye.. (:

2007-10-12T17:54:00.000+08:00

HELLO NS!
Typing this post now and I am totally shacked.. Like totally pooped.. Tired, tired, tired.. That's all I gotta say.. Lower back is hurting like hell.. Just cause I'm still fasting and all.. Kinda makes it a lil worst I guess but it's gonna be over soon.. The fasting that is..

So anyways, Ns life.. Tiring.. Ok wait, I've said that before but yea.. No joke.. And I think some of u are wondering how come I'm out sooo fast right?. Lemme explain..
Singapore Civil Defence Force
Charlie Company
Platoon 7 - Titans
That's where I'm enlisted, my company name and which platoon I am in.. Titans!.. They say it's the fittest squad there.. (: Ok, enuff about that.. Just gonna post what happened (if I can recall everything) over the past week..

So 9 Oct.. The day of enlistment finally arrived.. Daddy and mummy drove me there.. And I was so like nervous when we got there.. Hands were shaking I tell u!.. Anyhow, few moments later and it was goodbye.. So we were placed into our platoons, told where we were gonna sleep (and since platoon 7 is the fittest platoon, they HAD to put it on the 4th floor -.- That's up and down 10 plus time per day man.. I see strong leg muscles coming soon!) and some of the basic stuff.. Beds are like 7 inches thick!.. But comfort level is just there.. Yeap..

Haircut was a seriously HAIRY affair!.. Those dudes doing the shaving are rough man.. Totally!.. And they didn't care bout anything else, except the money.. Yeap, we gotta pay for the cuts.. Like $3 for a rough cut.. =P In the end, everyone looked.. Well.. The same.. And it was kinda difficult to tell each other apart.. For a while only though.. (:

Did learn some drills.. Have to say that I never knew NPCC in sec school would come in this handy.. But drills weren't as though as NP.. Maybe cause this is just the first week "Orientation Week".. Yeap.. Oh and we got a tour of the whole base and also the Devil's Bar.. Hotel California.. DETENTION BARRACKS.. And it was no shit.. Quite scary actually.. They locked us up in one of the padded cells and the dark room.. Basically both were dark and not to mention.. HOT and STUFFY!.. People that wanna lose weight, my advice, just stay in that room for 10 mins.. That'll do.. But I don't wanna ever go in there.. For PT, they gotta carry this 25kg bag and do push ups and run around and stuff.. O.o I got cut marks while trying to put the bag on!..

Well, I'm kinda undecided on which vocation but I think for me, it'll always be what I thought off in the beginning.. It happens to be that way every time I needa think hard.. So like Ling says, Murphy's Law.. And I think it applies to me too.. See, here's the thing.. We were given 3 choices to choose from.. As in where u wanna go, vocation and stuff.. But since we're diploma holders.. 2 of the choices were preselected for us.. Like -.- can!.. So ERS (Emergency Response Specialist) and fire fighter were a must.. Last choice, I was undecided.. PTI (Physical Training Instructor) or medic.. I chose medic anyways.. So yea.. And we had a bunk meeting from the sir and he told us.. No PTI intakes for this batch.. So I guess the next bes thing is ERS.. Since it's the best of SCDF.. It's a 6 month Sergeant course, meaning.. We'll pass out as a Sergeant!.. And pay is like $1050!.. O.o

But I heard them saying those with glasses.. 500 degrees and above can't.. Mine was way above that.. And so the list came yesterday and I was in it!.. Surprised cause I told everyone that I'll never make it.. But look!.. O.o But yea, I dropped out in the end.. The whole glasses thingy.. At some point in the training, u'll needa wear masks and not wear glasses.. And using contacts isn't a good idea.. Oh, u can use contacts btw.. Yea, I was like "WHAT?" too!.. Fire is hot and if it melts ur contacts.. Bye bye sight!.. I mean, I'd rather get posted to another vocation than go blind.. Not to mention that it's only 2 yrs so yea..

Alright, on to th good stuff.. Don't read this and go all envious of me alright.. I was kinda surprised too when I heard about the "benefits"..

1. Camera phones are allowed
2. Washing machines and dryers are provided
3. We get to go home at 5pm every friday regardless of the day u enlisted
4. 7 weeks and it's POP

So yea, don't like me.. Bite me!.. *munch.. Oww.. Ok I'll stop.. But yea.. It's quite nice here.. (:

And I'll only be able to update on weekends, that's if there's no guard duty so yea.. The blog's not totally dead!..;)

So meanwhile gonna rest and Njoy my precious time.. Booking in on Sunday.. Toodles peeps!.. (:

2007-10-08T21:35:00.000+08:00

Humbling experience.. That's what I would describe it as.. NS tmr already.. Less than 11hrs to go.. And yea, I'll say it again.. Oh how time flies!.. This last week leading up to it.. Well, I would say has been the best days of my life!.. (:

Meet up with friends, birthday gifts and all, and finally time with my family.. It all adds up I guess.. Plus with the weather being this "NICE" and James Blunt's new album, courtesy of Royce, adding to the soundtrack of these events.. Yeap..

And today, Jasmine came over.. One of my sis friends.. (: So cool to see her again.. Last time was when I passed donuts to her.. Yup yup.. My sis was totally bullying her.. Even my parents were asking why when she went back.. LOL.. But yea, nice to see u again girl!.. All laughs and all.. Even though the weather was kinda GLOOMY.. BOO weather BOO.. Wait, on second thought.. YAYS for the weather being this way!.. RAIN = NO TRAINING!.. =D

So I helped with spring cleaning today.. Feel kinda bad that my dad has to do everything when I go in since I'm normally helping him out when the festive season is coming.. Yup yup.. He went through some of the photo albums and took out some to let us see.. Oh the memories.. When me, my sis and bro were so young!.. (: And now all grown up and stuff.. Brings back so so so many memories!.. U know the feeling inside, it's like u just wanna go back there.. Yeap..

Went off to meet Liqin later on.. She'd just finished her O level music, piano.. (: The girl's talented I tell u.. ;) So yea, so nice of her to take the time off.. She still had another round tmr.. Yeap.. Padlocks are tough things to find at reasonable prices!.. In the end, that was the only thing I had to get on my list.. The only thing remaining.. Who'd thought it would be padlocks?.. Haha.. She brought me to like almost every hardware shop around Bedok that she knew off.. And we had some mishaps with the ATM thingy.. Shall not say.. Shall not reveal how not well-off I am.. Hehe.. But yea, in the end.. Everything evened out and all was well.. (:

Bussed back to the market near her place.. She was all prepared with the digicam and stuff!.. Haha.. Yeap, TIME TO GO BALD!.. Ok, not bald but I was gonna shave before I went in.. Heard from ppl and stuff that they shaved to the roots once u went in.. No pain, a lotta gain!.. Trust me!.. =D So yea, she took the before and after thingy.. And also the intermediate.. Like even the barber asked her to take half way while he was cutting!.. So ON man!.. Was so cooling after that!.. Like blow wind, please blow!.. LOL..

But yea, wanna say thanks to Liqin for today.. Though it was short and brief, time was absolutely well spent.. (: And thanks to Manda a.k.a Twin.. For u keeping me company with ur msges till well.. Today!.. Hee.. And thanks to Huiling, Royce, Deborah, Bernita, Judith, Jasmine and everyone else.. For making it such an enjoyable time before going in.. Really appreciate it u guys.. (:

Alright, I bet u guys are like dying to see what I look like now.. So yea, pic below.. (:

2007-10-07T20:46:00.000+08:00

Ok, this song is officially stuck in my head.. It's off James Blunt's new album, All The Lost Souls and it's called Same Mistake.. Take a listen to it.. It's quite emo I guess.. Sit down, close your eyes, concentrate and listen.. It's one of those cry to songs.. Yeap.. But it's really a nice song.. Lyrics are below.. (:

Saw the world turning in my sheets and once again I cannot sleep.
Walk out the door and up the street; look at the stars beneath my feet.
Remember rights that I did wrong, so here I go.
Hello, hello. There is no place I cannot go.
My mind is muddy but my heart is heavy. Does it show?
I lose the track that loses me, so here I go.

And so I sent some men to fight, and one came back at dead of night.
Said he'd seen my enemy. Said he looked just like me,
So I set out to cut myself and here I go.

I'm not calling for a second chance,
I'm screaming at the top of my voice.
Give me reason but don't give me choice.
'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again.

And maybe someday we will meet, and maybe talk and not just speak.
Don't buy the promises 'cause, there are no promises I keep.
And my reflection troubles me, so here I go.

I'm not calling for a second chance,
I'm screaming at the top of my voice.
Give me reason but don't give me choice.
'Cause I'll just make the same mistake,
I'm not calling for a second chance,
I'm screaming at the top of my voice.
Give me reason but don't give me choice.
'Cause I'll just make the same mistake again.

Saw the world turning in my sheets and once again I cannot sleep.
Walk out the door and up the street; look at the stars.
Look at the stars fall down.
And wonder where did I go wrong.
James Blunt

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMANDA
I would just like to wish my twin, Manda, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!.. See, free publicity ok!.. LOL.. Yea, best wishes and Njoy this day alright!.. U have 23hrs and 58mins left.. LOL.. Joking but yea, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TWIN!.. (:

Ok, more and more outings now as the days of NS draws nearer!.. It kinda hit me hard like on Friday, after the dinner with Manda and Ling.. I was thinking to myself.. This is really happening isn't it.. Yea I mean, kinda late to think of that now but suddenly it seems so erm.. SCARY?.. How real it is all gonna be.. Yeap.. But anyhow, I'm gonna go into NS all positive.. No point bringing urslf down for no reason at all right?.. (:

Friday
Met Manda and Ling at Macs at TM.. Exchanged pressies with Manda and Ling gave us each our own.. Cuz we're both Libras!.. LIBRAS RULE!.. ;) Headed towards Soeul Garden for dinner.. Yeap.. Buffet while fasting = not very good idea.. U'll get fuller, faster!.. Trust me.. Not good!.. LOL.. But yea, we did like so many crappy things during dinner.. Talked and eat and talked and played.. It's nice spending time with them.. I knew Ling since sec sch and Manda and I really seemed to click, twin!.. Played truth and truth also.. I guess some things in that game are better left unspoken.. =X

Overall, I really NjoyD myself.. (: It's just amazing that no matter what, whenever the 3 of us meet.. We just have so much fun and keep laughing.. And considering the fact that we sorta just got together as a group.. It really says a lot.. Gonna miss u guys once I go in.. Weekends only then.. It'll be hard but if we do meet up, it'll be worth it.. (: And last but not least, thank u guys so much for the pressies.. The cards were really something too.. Thanks you guys.. (:

P.S Good things come in 3s.. ;)

Saturday
Woke up at 11.45am today!.. OMG!.. Ok, I know that's not very late for most/all of u but.. I normally get up at like 9 or 10 the most.. So, for somewhere near 12?!.. Yea, u get the pic.. Went to get my NS stuff today.. Met Royce at TM and went shopping.. Man, he looked really dressed up!.. Like he could walk into Raffles Hotel and looked like he was staying there!.. SUPER DRESSED UP!..

And BOO YA Royce!.. Yes yes, Liqin and I did it again!.. Surprise surprise!.. LOL.. Again, should have taken a photo of his face!.. PRICELESS!.. Trained down to City Hall.. Royce left to meet his friends in town.. So it was just me and Liqin left.. Yup yup.. Accompanied her to Suntec cuz she said that her friends were there waiting for her.. But I couldn't resist from showing her the new iPods!.. I think I got her hooked too!.. iTouched the iPod Touch!.. Haha.. It was uber cool man!.. iPod, Wi-Fi, youtube and everything else.. MUST GET!.. Ok, I really hope that Liqin wasn't late cuz of me.. Took quite long there.. =X

But yea, in the end.. Zipped down to the esplanade library where her friends were.. Really got the time to know what's going through her right now.. O's and all.. NjoyD ur company.. (: And thanks for the pressie too!.. It looks awesome!.. Too good to eat!.. LOL.. But the card was really something too.. U chased my blues away!.. (: Thanks so much Liqin.. (:

Hey hey.. (: Alright, I'm not sure if I should be blogging this but since this is my space.. Please read the disclaimer first.. =D

Went out with Jud yesterday.. Met her at Bugis and off we were to find Manda's pressie.. ;) I'm not gonna say nuts bout the pressie here cuz I ain't gonna give away any hints.. Just have wait till tonight Manda.. And I hope u like it.. (:

Walked on over to Suntec and Marina next.. Dinner at BK and stuff.. And we headed to the Esplanade next.. Sat down , chit chatted for awhile.. View by the bay was GORGEOUS!.. Ok, maybe it's partly because of the fact that I don't really go there very often but yea.. GORGEOUS!..

I must say that there's only so much that first impressions can make u think of what kind of a person he or she is.. Until u open ur mouth and make the effort to go up and talk to them.. It all changes.. U get to know the person better, what they're like, what they've gone through, how they're feeling and all.. Yea, I don't know.. I guess that's good.. I mean as in my case yesterday.. Yup yup.. And yea, Jud's a cool girl!.. Haha.. (: Very animated and stuff.. Crappy (Like I'm not like that) and funny.. And a great artist too.. ;) I really did have fun last night + LOADS OF LAUGHTER!.. And considering it's the last few days of "FREEDOM".. I mean, yea.. Another outing soon yea!.. LOL.. (:

P.S. I'm still drooling over those BMWs!.. OMG!.. O.o *Slurps up drool.. Ewww, ok that sounded wrong.. Haha.. Ok, bye.. (:

2007-10-03T23:21:00.000+08:00

Alright, I've been on like Facebook so much recently!.. Since the Life section published an article in the papers last Sunday.. So many more adds from friends.. I've even managed to find 2 of my primary school friends there!.. And man am I HAPPY to see them!.. Yup yup.. And there's so much more to do!.. Forget friendster, I'm upgrading!.. (:

So 6 days more.. And the count down goes on.. To NS that is.. Another 12 to my birthday though.. (: Wonder how it's gonna all go down though.. 9th being enlistment and 13th being Hari Raya.. Hopefully I'll be able to go out.. And I just though of the most outrageous present to get this year!.. Yeap, dream pressie for this year.. A SURFBOARD!.. So yea, I don't think anyone is gonna get that but like I said.. DREAM

Oh oh.. And I've been dreaming A LOT lately.. Almost every night and even just now in the afternoon!.. But the one I remembered the most was dreaming about my dad and I.. How'd he brought me back to our old house in Ubi.. That's where I grew up.. So many memories.. Reminded me of my dad and mum.. How'd they take care of me and my sis.. And my lil bro and the things he did.. Hee.. I don't know, everytime I pass by there.. I just wanna go back into that house.. See it all over again.. Every wall, every memory.. Tears flow sometimes thinking bout it.. Yea.. Ok, no going emo but yea.. Just a thought.. (:

2007-10-01T23:17:00.000+08:00

Happy Children's Day to all!.. And October is already here!.. 9 more days peeps!.. Haha.. This is what I got as a reply for wishing Royce Happy Children's Day.. "LOL happy children's day.. I got 120 push ups and a 3km march with lots of stuff which needed to be carried.." Ok yea, he's having fun.. (:

Well, I had this dream last week.. It was the day of my enlistment and I was still packing my bags at 7am plus.. I had to reach camp by 8.30am.. Cuz that's my allocated time.. Talk about not getting ready.. I think I'm gonna get my stuff soon.. Anyone wanna follow?.. LOL.. Yea, oh oh.. And I had another dream.. I landed in some North Korean like country where once u got in u ain't going out.. Scary.. Guards everywhere and stuff.. Yup yup..

Ok, random post.. (:

2007-09-30T16:16:00.000+08:00

Alright, back!.. I'll blog bout yesterday now..

Saturday
Met up with Bernita for a while yesterday.. Yea, like 15 mins tops awhile.. She was gonna gimme my birthday present.. Like how bad of me to just take and go right?.. ): Sry Bernie.. But thank you for the pressie.. Black towel with my name hand sticthed on it.. Black is my favourite colour and the sticth makes it one of a kind!.. Thanks so much girl!.. (:

Off to meet my sis next.. Went on down to town with her.. I still haven't gotten birthday presents for my parents and sis yet.. =X Yea I know I know, I'm like so bad right?.. Sigh.. But yea, so that's the whole reason why I went out with my sis.. Yup yup.. So in the end, got my mum a necklace at Forever 21.. Yea man, my mum is hip!.. (: And we headed down to parkway next.. We couldn't decide what to get for my dad so we figured.. He liked fishing and he didn't want anything material.. So we got him LOADS OF SALMON SASHIMI!.. =D Yeap, so that's basically how it went.. Nothing much really.. Talked to Jud online and she said she was in town too!.. Wouldn't that be a surprise if I were to meet her then and there!..

oh oh.. One more thing.. All Italian Affair.. Yeap, that's what I would call it.. From what I'd seen yesterday.. Got down the bus and a red F430 Spyder zipped passed.. And walking along the hotels.. 2 more of those spyders, one 360 Challenge Stradale and a Quattroporte.. Yea yea, I know what ur thinking.. I'm lost in my own world of cars again.. But here's a picture of what I saw.. No drooling!.. (:

Ferrari F430 Spyder.. Saw 3 of these.. One in red, yellow and grey..

Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale.. In yellow..

Maserati Quattroporte.. In dark blue..

2007-09-29T22:06:00.000+08:00

Alright, I've been going out yesterday and today.. Loads of walking and legs are tired now.. NO MORE CONVERSE SHOES FOR ME!.. LOL.. They really hurt my feet and I think it's cuz of the flat base.. Yeap.. So used to wearing Nikes.. My feet trust them too much!.. So here's what went down.. (:

Friday
Out yesterday with.. ROYCE!.. LOL.. He booked out already and he wanted to splurge.. =X So yea, he looks good with his hair off.. Cool dude!.. And yea, he was all with that NS experience and stuff.. But I'm sry for making u wait dude.. Really am.. Yeap, I made the dude wait.. For 1 1/2 hrs.. =X I don't know why I'm saying this but yea.. Sry.. Met him at Vivo.. Zipped in and out shops.. Like those high end ones looking for.. Well, clothes.. Nothing much there really and river Island at Vivo.. They changed their clothes for the season alrdy.. The new ones are not exactly uberly nice but average.. As compared to the previous season.. And they cost a lot more too!.. ): Boo hoo!.. So we decided to go to Raffles since that's where we saw the clothes in the first place.. Yeap.. And well, bad luck.. To think that we were so naive to think that they only changed the season at one location.. So yea.. ): Headed to Marina later on.. Walked past Topman and this sleeveless vest thingy.. Cardigan material caught Royce's eye.. Tried it on and he just decided to buy it.. Just like that.. Well, I tried on this hat too.. They said that I could pull it off but the main question was.. How often am I gonna where that?.. Yup yup..

We were just gonna leave and another thing caught his eye.. It was.. *Drum roll please.. LIQIN!.. LOL.. Yeap, surprise surprise dude!.. *Great thinking and some evil planning and there she was!.. He was really surprised man!.. Should have captured his look!.. PRICELESS!.. Haha.. But yea, I nearly ruined by saying.. "let's go to Suntec.. Then U and me and Liqin can play outrun!.." Right Robby.. Don't do that again.. Luckily I managed to bluff my way outta it.. Royce is naive too!.. =X LOL.. Yeap, so all 3 of us headed to FIN Seafood Cafe after that.. Dinner time!.. (:
Royce had Baked Rice and Fish, Liqin had the Seafood Ala Olio Olio and I had the Pan - Fried Salmon with Herbal Butter Sauce.. Food was uberific!.. Though the portions were small, it's enough to fill.. Trust me!.. (:

Pan - Fried Salmon with Herbal Butter Sauce.. Only one way to describe this.. Mmmmmmm.. Especially the sauce on the outer side of the plate.. (:

Walked around some more and headed to Raffles Shopping Center.. Showed Liqin what all the fuss was about at River Island.. And surprisingly, our tummy's were hungry.. And it's only been awhile since we ate dinner.. Actually, we were heading down to the basement and saw this desert that a group of people were eating.. Looked so tempting.. And so yea, temptation overwhelmed us all and before u know it.. We were sitting down waiting for that desert to be served up!..

Strawberry Crepe.. (:

Yeap, that's it.. Strawberries were fresh and juicy.. It wasn't crispy as we thought it was gonna be but still.. And the ice cream was so smooth in the mouth.. Ok, no drooling now people.. Haha.. Yeap, so that's practically desert.. Oh oh.. And the restaurant's nme is Out of The Pan.. Yup yup.. Headed home after that.. Some pictures we took after that.. A lil pose here and there, some cheeky ones and all the others that come with it.. Yeap.. (:

Had a great time u guys.. And it's nice seeing u again dude!.. (: And same to u Liqin.. Get that throat all better yea.. (: Take care u guys and do this again soon!.. (:

I'll blog bout saturday tmr.. Tired now.. Well, nights and cya.. (:

2007-09-29T21:33:00.000+08:00

Hey people.. Bout the other post the other day.. Sry I sounded so down.. I'm all better now.. Yeap.. It's just that I was told something which really hurt.. Dug up all my flaws and insecurities.. Post it for the world to see.. That's basically what happened.. But I'm alright now.. (:

Thanks to the people that were there for me.. I really appreciate it a lot that u guys were there, all ur msgs and stuff.. Amanda, Shi Han, Bernita, Liqin, Royce and Judith.. Thanks so much u guys.. (:

Just really feel thankful to have friends like u.. Yeap.. (:

2007-09-27T20:15:00.000+08:00

Running away in my mind.. Not caring bout time, space and everything else.. All alone now.. This dark place.. Room.. Box.. All alone, dark.. No one there.. To care, to hear.. To what I've gotta say.. No ears that wanna listen.. I shut myself out from everything else.. Why?.. I wanna be alone.. I wanna go through this all by myself.. Do I?.. Do I really wanna go through it alone?.. No.. Afraid to open up.. Afraid that I might shed a tear doing so.. And suddenly I'm fragile, all over again.. Exposed to everything else.. My flaws and everything else that comes with it.. I'm a dreamer, that I know of.. But is it so bad to dream.. Dream big, that's what they say.. But do u really wanna do that?.. What if ur dreams don't come true?.. U fall.. And they say, well.. At least u don't fall that low.. I'm different.. Is that so wrong?.. I wanna live life differently from others.. Not just one that goes with the flow.. Going with the flow.. Is that even living at all?.. I wanna step out.. Do something, be somebody.. Just need some belief.. If only u knew how I work.. Then maybe, just maybe u'll know why I'm like this.. Why I act the way I do, why I am like this.. Understand me.. And u'll see things through my eyes.. Tears shedding at almost every instant.. Just covered up by a mask that hides it all.. Afraid that once it's all exposed, everything that has some meaning to me will be gone.. Vanished.. Disappeared.. Be nonexistent.. And what do I have left after all that?.. Nothing..

Manda and Hannie.. Thanks..

Waking up at the start of the end of the world
But it's feeling just like every other morning before
Now I wonder what my life is gonna mean if it's gone
The cars are moving like a half a mile an hour if that
Started staring at the passengers waving goodbye
Can you tell me what was ever really special about me all this time

But I believe the world
Is burning to the ground
Oh well I guess
We're gonna find out
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
I believe it all
Is coming to an end
Oh well I guess we're gonna pretend
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come

I think it turned ten o'clock but I don't really know
I can't remember caring for an hour or so
Started crying and I couldn't stop myself
I started running but there's nowhere to run to
I sat down on the street, took a look at myself
Said where you going man you know the world is heading for hell
Say your goodbyes if you've got someone you can
Say goodbye to

I believe the world
Is burning to the ground
Oh well I guess
We're gonna find out
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come
I believe it all
Is coming to an end
Oh well I guess we're gonna pretend
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come

It's gone gone baby it's all gone
There is no one on the corner and there’s no one at home
It was cool cool, it was just all cool
Now it’s over for me and it’s over for you
Well it's gone gone baby it's all gone
There is no one on the corner and there’s no one at home
Well it was cool cool, it was just all cool
Now it’s over for me and it’s over for you

But I believe the world
Is burning to the ground
Oh well I guess
We're gonna find out
Let's see how far we've come
Let’s see how far we’ve come
Well I believe it all
Is coming to an end
Oh well I guess we're gonna pretend
Let's see how far we've come
Let's see how far we've come

Do you know?..

The fastest speeding ticket was handed out to a guy in Texas.. Apparently he was doing 242mph.. That's equivalent to nearly 390kmph!.. Totally cool if u ask me!.. It was worth the ticket!.. =X

Oh boy.. I'm having a majorly bad headache but just have the urge to blog now.. Haha.. So it's 2 weeks exactly till I go in.. 14 days minus 2 till Manda's birthday.. So many things are coming up!.. Hmmm.. Last day of work this coming Friday.. Also meeting Royce on Friday.. Yeap, his 2 weeks are done.. Ain't that like so fast?.. Meeting Bernita on Saturday.. Outing with my sis on Saturday too.. Oh oh.. Clash!.. Ok, I gotta go rearrange Saturday then.. Moving on.. Next week, outing with Ling and Manda, and also to go get my stuff.. And maybe on next Saturday of Sunday, SHAVE!.. Hair that is.. All off!.. And the finally on the 9th.. I'm in!.. Haha..

Just watched this show just now.. Bout James Blunt returning to Kosova.. Some war happened in 1999 and he's gone back to see how are things and to see the 2 families that he'd been close with.. It nearly made me tear.. How things there are and how lucky we are to be living here.. In the end, the 2 families couldn't be found.. They were living in the countryside but moved to the city as they couldn't provide for themselves and had to earn money in the city.. Just in deep thought now.. Yeap..

Ahh.. Ok, headaches telling to go to bed.. It seriously hurts.. It feels like a python around my head.. Squeezing it and I can feel the blood pumping through my brain!.. Ok, a song before I go.. I'm out!.. (:

I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
Cause no one else cared

After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When I'm done here

So if you're asking me
I want you to know

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

And don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Don't be afraid
I've taken my beating
I've shared what I made

I'm strong on the surface
Not all the way through
I've never been perfect
But neither have you

So if you're asking me
I want you to know

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting
All the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well

Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting
All the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well

Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are
I can't be who you are

Ok, not the whole weekend was wasted.. I did manage to catch the MTV Video Music Awards '07 yesterday afternn.. It was totally cool!.. It was at the PALMS in Las Vegas, Vegas baby!.. Haha..

Two to one
Static to the sound of you and I
Undone for the last time
And there this was
Hiding at the bottom of your
Swimming pool some September
And don't you think
I wish I could stay
Your lips give you away

I can hear it, the jet engine
Through the center of the storm
And I'm thinking I'd
Prefer not to be rescued

Two to none
Roads that lead away from this
I'm following myself just this once
And I've got spun
It appears you're spun as well
It happens when you pay attention
This could take all year, but

When it's quiet, does she hear me?
Jettisoned to the center of the storm
And I'm thinking I
Prefer not to be rescued
Oh, I can feel her, she's dying
Just to keep me cool
I'm finally numb, so please
Don't get me rescued

Rescued

And it's unclear
But this may be my last song
Oh, I, I can tell
She's raising hell to give to me
She got me warm
So please don't get me rescued
Oh, say you'll miss me one last time
I'll be strong, but whatever you do
Please don't get me rescued

Cause I'm feeling like
I might need to be near you
And I feel alright, so please
Don't get me rescued

Rescued

Just got back from dinner at granny's.. Don't really see her and grandpa that often so yea.. Missing them I guess.. (: *Loves.. Had briyani rice but it wasn't very appetising to begin with.. But it was dinner, not to mention food after 13+ hrs of not eating and drinking so yea.. It'll do..

Went out with Deborah today.. Haven't seen her in awhile and she's just finished with her prelims.. Haven't spoken to her in awhile too.. All I know is that she's stressed and been falling sick way too often.. So yea, was nice seeing her again today in a looong while.. And and, she got me a bdae present.. (: Thanks sooo much Debs!.. Ok, she's like way ahead.. Like 25 days ahead.. But yea, it's the thought that counts right.. Really appreciative for her doing that.. (: Speaking of which, I haven't opened it yet.. Later then or should I keep it till well, my bdae?.. Hmm.. Decisions decisions.. Oh well.. Hee..

We took a stroll round TM and Cs.. Walked into Sembawang Music and Popular Bookstore.. Both times the alarms rang went I walked outta the shops.. Arghh.. This is so frustrating!..I'm like having a freaking phobia every time I walk through those sensors.. I'm scared they'll go off.. I mean, I didn't take anything from the shops.. They just well, ring.. And my heart seriously beats faster and faster every time I wanna walk out of shops with those thingys.. Ok ppl, pls don't exploit me.. =X

I wanted to be like you
I wanted everything
So I tried to be like you
And I got swept away

I didn't know that it was so cold
And you needed someone
to show you the way
So I took your hand and we figured out
That when the time comes
I'd take you away

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
was somebody who cares

I'm sinking slowly
So hurry hold me
Your hand is all I have to keep me hanging on
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
was somebody who cares

All you wanted was somebody who cares
If you need me you know I'll be there
Oh, yeah

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
was somebody who cares

Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone

Dinner at Sakura yesterday was awwwesome!.. Made even better by the fact that I'm like fasting now.. Yea, today's the third day already.. No FOOD AND DRINKS from 5.30am till like 7.06pm EVERYDAY!.. So that's like 13+ hours with no FOOD AND DRINKS.. I'm not complaining or anything but yea.. Some info for u guys.. ;)

So bout the dinner.. Went straight for the sushi and my salmon cravings are now satisfied!.. And not for getting steak too!.. Ok OMG but my family was complaining bout me yesterday coz I had like 5 to 6 cups of drinks.. I'm not being greedy or anything but I just taking new cups when I finish my drink.. Haha..

Hmm.. It's raining again.. Cold and wet.. =/ Kinda makes me understand why ppl in cold countries feel so miserable.. Well, kinda at least.. So Royce has already gone in.. Like yesterday.. Terence today.. Liqin and Bernita done with exams.. Well, prelims at least.. Outings anyone?.. Haha.. And I'm left with 25 days more of freedom.. A week's worth of work.. Since I counted I have only 7 days of work left.. Time flies so fast and before u know it, September is here.. And looking at the way things have gone so far, I'm really staring to appreciate life a lot more.. My family and especially my friends.. That's not forgetting my twin Amanda, my dear friend Huiling and Deborah.. (: Ok, Robby is emo-ing again.. Haha.. But yea, I'm seriously sitting down and really thinking about all this for the first time in a long while now.. Ok, ignore Robby.. *He's seriously emo-ing it.. Hee..

Well, here's a song from Yellowcard's new album.. Their first video in fact from this album.. Lyrics below.. (:

You're making choice to live like this
In all of the noise I Am Silence.
We already know how it ends tonight
You run in the dark through a firefight
I would explode just to save your life
I would explode

Let me light up the sky
Light it up for you
Let me tell you why
I would die for you
Let me light up the sky

I can't find a wall to pin this to
They're all coming down since I've found you
I just want to be where you are tonight
I run in the dark looking for some light
How will we know if we just don't try
We won't ever know

Let me light up the sky
Light it up for you
Let me tell you why
I would die for you

Let me light up the sky
Light it up for you
Let me make this mine
I'll ignite for you

Let me light up the sky just for you tonight
Let me help you fly you won't have time
To cover your eyes or get your disguise
They won't ask you why they'll just watch you die
And it's still so hard to be who you are
So you play this part and the show goes on
but you've come this far with a broken heart
You've come this far and you're broken

Let me light up the sky
Light it up for you
Let me tell you why
I would die for you
Let me light up the sky
Light it up for you
Let me make this mine
I'll ignite for you
I'll ignite for you

Let me light up the sky
Light it up for you
Let me tell you why
I would die for you

And it's still so hard to be who you are,
But you've come this far with a broken heart..
And it's still so hard to be who you are,
But you've come this far with a broken..

Let me light up the sky
Let me light up the sky

I saw the new iPod nano ad.. Pretty cool and not to mention cute.. But the song that was playing really caught my attention.. It's catchy but sweet at the same time.. It's called 1234.. Yeap, u heard me.. And I was telling Bernita this aftern.. No wait.. Yesterday afternoon since it's thursday already.. *Robby don't think too much.. Ok, yea.. I told her in the afternoon at, guess what time.. 12.34pm!.. LOL.. Anyways, lyrics below.. Short post.. (:

One Two Three Four
Tell me that you love me more
Sleepless long nights
That is what my youth was for

Old teenage hopes are alive at your door
Left you with nothing but they want some more

Oh, you're changing your heart
Oh, You know who you are

Sweetheart bitterheart now I can tell you apart
Cosy and cold, put the horse before the cart

Those teenage hopes who have tears in their eyes
Too scared to own up to one little lie

Oh, you're changing your heart
Oh, you know who you are

One, two, three, four, five, six, nine, or ten
Money can't buy you back the love that you had then
One, two, three, four, five, six, nine, or ten
Money can't buy you back the love that you had then

Oh, you're changing your heart
Oh, you know who you are
Oh, you're changing your heart
Oh, you know who you are
Oh, who you are

For the teenage boys
They're breaking your heart
For the teenage boys
They're breaking your heart
Feist

It's a fighter jet for all u ppl out there.. Hee.. Only 20 will be built and the price for it.. *drum roll please.. $1.6 million USD!.. And ppl that wanna buy it have to put down THAT initial deposit.. But according to the article, most probably all have been snapped up!.. Anyways, pics are below.. No drooling ok?.. =X

Verdict = I want one!.. I mean, who doesn't right?.. So yea, another HOT car!.. (: If u want a larger view, click on the pics!.. Oh.. And if ur wondering which webbie I go to for all this car news/hype.. It's www.seriouswheels.com.. That's mainly for the pics.. For the news, it's www.leftlanenews.com.. Well, I check this sites out like every single day so yea.. I'm a CAR NUT!!!.. (: Btw, got the lamborghini pics from leftlane news.. Yeap.. It's updated like dunno how many times a day!.. Ok, random post.. Bye!.. (:

P.S. I just noticed that it's September 11th.. Moment of silence for the ppl that lost their lives there.. Thank you..

Gonna be missing the PIMPNESS..

2007-09-11T14:16:00.000+08:00

Wee Hoo wee.. Alright, that was so random but.. Hello!.. (: LOL.. Went out with Royce yesterday.. It's like 3 more days till he goes in.. 13 Sept, Thursday.. He cancelled cycling with his friends since it was raining and out we went..

Met him at Century Square, and was well.. Expecting him to come walking in with a shaved head.. But no, no shaved head.. Haha.. He was wearing a cap and he was like.. "Yea man, the cap comes with hair!.. It's a wig and what not.." LOL.. But honestly, no shaved head.. He's gonna do that today I think.. Yeap.. Way to bluff me and Liqin.. LOL..

So anyhow, lunched and aracaded there for a while.. There's this game called Battle Gear 4.. It's like a racing game but there's a clutch in it!.. First time I ever saw that.. Been wanting to try it out but don't wanna be laughed at.. Anyway, we played it and.. IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!.. OMG-ness!.. LOL.. It's really cool and u get to know how to use the clutch and all.. Ok, I admit I sucked.. Quite badly even but it was fun though.. Yup yup.. (:

Trained down to Suntec next.. More arcading and stuff.. Royce was really on a roll man.. Like freely spending as if he was printing money!.. Haha.. Walked round Suntec for awhile.. Went to this shop called Ppopcorn.. They have like movie posters from movies past, present and future one.. U know what I mean right.. Yea, and they're real reasonable too.. Small ones for $5 and up, big ones for $20 and up.. They've even got the TRANSFORMERS one that I'd been dreaming about!.. Headed to a shop right opposite to Popcorn.. It was selling vintage guns and samurai swords.. Totally cool but it kinda looked a lil fake to me.. That's my POV anyways.. Cuz there we some wooden kinda but not much attracted me.. Yeap.. Oh oh, did I mention that we gotta play with the NEW iPods?.. Yea, the shuffle, NEW nano and the classic.. The touch one only ships end of this month so yea.. But it was totally cool!.. And also saw this neat bag at Roots.. It's a mix btw the backpack and sling bag type.. Yeap..

To a stroll to Raffles City Shopping centre.. Wanted to intro Royce to this shop called River Island.. He's so HOOKED on that shop now!.. LOL..stuff there is better than Topman, I gotta say and prices aren't that bad either.. There was like bling which was totally after and just some nice shirts.. Yeap..

But in the end, we decided.. AFTER BMT!.. We're gonna shopping man!.. LOL.. All those things we saw.. And more.. After BMT!.. Now, there's something to look forward too!.. (:

Well, to be honest.. I was actually quite sad for him going in.. I mean it's another brather going in.. So I'll be quite lonely since that now leaves Xing and me who are btw, going in on the same day.. The only 2 bratherws left.. The others have already gone in or are going in this month.. Yea, I've still my other friends and all.. No offence u guys.. (: But guess it's cuz I been going with him, meeting other friends with him.. Over the last few weeks.. Ok, for the record.. I'm still straight but yea.. Sad.. Well, he looks excited from yesterday so yea.. GO FOR IT DUDE!.. (:

P.S. Hope u liked the cookies dude!.. And my mum sends her regards!.. (:

Ok, this song was playing while I was walking on my way home yest night.. Quite an old one.. 1 to 2 yrs ago.. It's by snow patrol and it's swt.. Lyrics are below.. (: Oh oh, and I just realised something.. It's the 9th of Sept today!.. Exactly a month more before I enlist!.. 1 month more to Njoy!.. (:

All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
My bones ache, my skin feels cold
And I'm getting so tired and so old

The anger swells in my guts
And I won't feel these slices and cuts
I want so much to open your eyes
Cause I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

Get up, get out, get away from these liars
Cause they don't get your soul or your fire
Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine
And we'll walk from this dark room for the last time

Every minute from this minute now
We can do what we like anywhere
I want so much to open your eyes
Cause I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes

All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
Snow Patrol
Open Your Eyes

Ok, I'm back.. Haha.. Part 2 wouldn't u think so.. Btw, bout the movie Ratatouille.. Well, according to the movie.. It's actually a dish.. A peasant dish.. Looks good though.. Yeap..

Saturday
So about saturday's outing.. It was with Bernita!.. LOL.. Someone who I have only talked to online and msged.. One of Royce's friends.. Yeap.. Met her at Pasir Ris MRT after her tuition.. Got lost finding her in the train.. Haha.. It's like when we first met.. We were like.. Oh, HI!..

So anyways, trained down to Douby - Again.. Cuz I was there yesterday.. Bought tickets to Evan Almighty.. That Noah kinda movie, with the great floods and all.. Yup yup.. Guess what, we got like the back row seats!.. It was like cool man and center block too!.. WOOT!.. Haha..

Well, movie was like an hour away so we headed back to PS.. Just killing the time and stuff.. Ok, she likes books and I'm not really a book kinda person.. Well, do comic books count?.. Hee.. It's ok to be open minded yea, so I sorta let her talk me into books, what was it that was so interesting and stuff.. Turned out alright.. Books are friends!.. Ok, what am I talking about.. ROBBY!.. Get urslf together!..

On to the movie next.. Back seats = Great view!.. OMG, I could see everything!.. Ok, I'm not some old mountain tortoise that like just watched a movie for the first time but seriously.. Cuz it's not so often that u get the back row of seats.. Yup yup.. The seats that we got had no dividers and stuff so it was cool.. I was actually finding the slot to place the drink in!.. LOL.. Movie was funny though.. If u've watch, liked and understood the 40 Year Old Virgin (M18 btw) then this is pretty much around the same level.. Was ok, kinda funny and stuff.. But just ok.. Yeap..

Walked towards town and I was like explaining to her cars and how and why guys like'em.. Even stopped by Times and other book shops to look at books on cars.. Explaining to her and stuff.. And she was cool, I mean listening to all that.. Haha.. She didn't fall asleep so I think it wasn't that bad..

Dinner was at BK and headed to Bugis to play.. U guessed it.. Outrun2SP!.. Haha.. I'm addicted to that game!.. And trained to farrer park thereafter.. View from her house was FABULOUS!!!.. She lives on the 23rd storey.. Bout the view, it was OMG-ly BEAUTIFUL!.. Especially at night!.. U could see from bugis all the way to Raffles and onto the Marina area!.. Ok, only slightly but still, what a view!.. And she said that fireworks could be seen clearly!.. Lucky girl.. (:

So, yea.. That's about it.. She did walk me to the bus stop.. And it's quite far ok.. Not to mention scary too with all the foreign workers and all.. She's brave I tell u!.. Thanks Bernita.. (:

P.S. I just realised something.. No photos!.. LOL..

2007-09-09T00:25:00.000+08:00

OUTINGS!.. OUTINGS!.. OUTINGS!.. I've been going on an outing spree over the last 2 days!.. Pay was in and I decided to splurge.. A lil.. Yup yup.. Went out with friends who had their one week September break for the prelims.. They were having O's so it was nice to spend some time with them.. Yeap.. (:

Friday
Went out with Liqin and Royce for movie and dinner.. Royce and Liqin heading out first.. He needed to get his watched fixed cuz wooziness made a scratch on his rather exp watch.. Yeap.. And they took a bus ride which made a completely BIG round.. Haha.. They sounded lost at first but ended up at The Cathay itself.. LOL..

Met up with them at Bugis.. Got Liqin flowers.. Hee.. And yea, it's our first outing.. But I was in the mood so yea.. 2 pink daisies.. Hoped she liked it.. (:

Played Outrun2SP at Bugis for a while.. LOL.. Imagine 3 ppl sitting together in a 2 seater car!.. It was fun though.. Most of the time we ended up laughing more than driving.. Haha.. Trained to PS next and Royce recommeded this place, The Manhattan Fish Marker.. Ok, I know it sounds like a wet market selling fish but was actually a sub towards Fish an Co. It was great though, the food.. Yup yup.. Royce had the Manhattan Fish and Chips, Liqin had the King Salmon Cajun and me.. Well, I had the Flaming Platter for one.. They set the prawns on fire when they served it!.. Burned a lil but it smelled great and tasted even better!.. Emmm.. I'm getting more hungry as I'm writing this post.. Haha..

So, movie was next.. Ratatouille at The Grand Cathay!.. Atmosphere and ambiance was absolutely superb!.. Not to mention the seats were so cumfy!.. They had a lil pre-movie lineup before the main one.. Disney/ Pixar always does this.. It was the same with Cars and all the other movies they made.. This one was about some alien that went about abducting humans.. But!.. In a very unsuccessful way.!.. Watch it urslf yea.. I'm not the spoiler kind so, I'm not gonna spoil anything.. And the Ratatouille movie itself.. FANSTASTIC!.. CUTE!.. HILARIOUS!.. A MUST SEE REALLY!.. Yup yup.. That's what I really have to say.. (:

Headed down to simpang after the movie.. Supper time.. (: Royce picked out some good food for us to eat.. Mashed potatoes there were better than those from KFC and with the mayo.. STUNNING!.. ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!.. And the party piece came in the form of an ice cream prata tissue.. Hope I got that right.. Ahh, I forgot what's it called.. Mixed up the words and I closed the window on MSN.. Was asking Royce what it was called earlier on.. So anyways, it was great too.. Soft, crispy prata on the outside and cool, cold ice cream on the inside.. Not too bad a meal to end the day if I do say so myself..

Cabbed back after that.. Really had a great time u guys.. Wanna thank you guys so much!.. Hope to do it again soon.. (:

Royce, Liqin and Me.. (:

Alright, so I'll continue with today's outing tmr.. Kinda tired from all that going out.. Yup yup.. Well, that's all for now.. Bye.. (:

2007-09-05T12:25:00.000+08:00

Hello again.. Week's been pretty much normal for me I guess.. Same old boring routine.. =/ Home, TV, Com, Workout and Work.. Yeap.. Well, I did meet Liqin yesterday.. So yea, that made things a lil more.. Hmm.. How should I say this.. Lively?.. Well, that's the only word I could think of.. Yea, put a smile on my face.. (:

So anyhow, on the bus ride home.. It felt a lil lonely.. ): Cuz I usually have either Oliver or Serene to accompany me on the bus ride home.. But Since they ended their jobs last friday, it was just me.. Kinda lonely, but I guess the music helps.. *Please don't die on me iPod.. Well, not till this job ends.. LOL..

Oh yea.. Almost forgot this.. There's this new Paco Rabanne poster that was just erected in the shop that I'm working at.. The poster boy.. OMG-ness!.. HOT-ness!.. Like seriously!.. I've really got motivation to go to the gym EVERY SINGLE DAY now!.. I mean, just look at it!..

Ok, for the record.. I'm still very much a straight guy thank you very much.. Haha.. But yea.. Gotten comments that his HOT and CUTE.. Well, least from those that likes the ang moh type.. Yup yup.. (:

I think I'll be placing a wishlist on my blog soon.. Been wanting to do it for so long now but I was just lazy.. Haha.. Well, I think mine's gonna cost a bomb but anyhow.. It's a WISHlist right.. (:

Ok and I wanna end by saying this.. Ok, guess somethings are better left unsaid but I mean, isn't it better that u found it out now rather than having to know that we're just putting on masks.. I'm sorry if I was harsh on my comments.. Truely I am.. And I would still wanna make it up to u.. At least get to know u better and stuff.. Understand why things are the way they are.. At least gimme a chance.. I don't want us to just shut it out just like that.. Yes, u hear things from ppl here and there but I wanna hear ur side too.. Really hope things can work out.. And once again.. I'm sorry..

2007-09-02T12:34:00.000+08:00

Waking up I see that everything is OK
The first time in my life and now it's so great
Slowing down I look around and I am so amazed
I think about the little things that make life great

I wouldn't change a thing about it
This is the best feeling

This innocence is brilliant
I hope that it will stay
This moment is perfect
Please don't go away
I need you now
And I'll hold on to it
Don't you let it pass you by

I found a place so safe, not a single tear
The first time in my life and now it's so clear
Feel calm, I belong, I'm so happy here
It's so strong and now I let myself be sincere

I wouldn't change a thing about it
This is the best feeling

This innocence is brilliant
I hope that it will stay
This moment is perfect
Please don't go away
I need you now
And I'll hold on to it
Don't you let it pass you by

It's a state of bliss, you think you're dreaming
It's the happiness inside that you're feeling
It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry
It's a state of bliss, you think you're dreaming
It's the happiness inside that you're feeling
It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry

It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry
This innocence is brilliant
Makes you wanna cry
This innocence is brilliance
Please don't go away
Cause I need you now
And I'll hold on to it
Don't you let it pass you by

This innocence is brilliant
I hope that it will stay
This moment is perfect
Please don't go away
I need you now
And I'll hold on to it
Don't you let it pass you by

teary eyed.. and the heart bleeds again..

2007-09-01T20:58:00.000+08:00

Haven't blogged for 3 days now.. And like quite a lotta things happened.. So here's the breakdown.. (:

Thursday
Ok, all I can remember.. Well, like the tagboard says.. Serene's middle finger!.. Haha.. Long story but all I have to say is that security deserved it.. And that's that.. Mind u, I even though of more stuff to make things worst but yea.. High 5 to Serene!.. She did the right thing!.. And if I were in her situation, I think it would have turned into a movie considering all the other nasty things I came up with.. =D

Friday
Yesterday was.. Teacher's Day!.. Yayness!.. Haha.. Met up with Xing and Royce.. Went back to see.. Well, teacher's.. LOL.. But quite a lotta them left and sooo many fresh faces.. Saw Mr. Chan, Mdm Lau, Mr. Subra and Ms. Yew.. We were like stunned when she flashed the camera in our faces!.. LOL.. Mr. Subra was still cute.. And Mr. Chan gave me and Royce the chance to be relief teachers!.. (: But we gotta sign up with MOE first and if they approve.. Yays!.. But the sad part.. Royce has 2 weeks left and I have only 5.. Anyways yea, nice seeing schoolmates too!.. Wanted to see Mrs. Jessie Leong and Mr. Lee Kim Seng.. He became a councillor!.. Yea man!.. (:

Met up with Manda and Ling later on.. So sad.. Ling said vivo was too far.. Cast of Heroes was in town.. Thought of going there to see them but oh well.. Ladies first right?.. Hee.. So yea, met up at Bugis.. Didn't do anything much but ME AND MANDA RACED!.. Finally!.. Certified driver and me!.. (: And Ling was each of our passenger.. Haha.. I won but I think it was unfair.. I mean, I used a manual and I knew the track.. So, yea.. I'll give it to u girl for trying!.. She's GOOD!.. Manda!.. Hee.. (: Ling and I discussed some issues.. And yea, we both think too much about a situation.. I remebered this phrase..

Don't think, just feel..

It's kinda true I guess.. Yeap.. And work was tiring.. Legs hurt but it was the weekends the next day!.. (:

Saturday
Yeap.. Today!.. SIM open house today!.. Been looking forward to this one.. But kinda disappointed in the end I guess.. Went with Royce.. Turns out that GPA didn't really matter.. I wanted to apply to RMIT for a Bachelor In Business (Marketing).. Turns out, there wasn't any attachment involved and no honours.. Just a distinction degree.. =/ And comparing UOL to RMIT.. Their studying styles were different too.. UOL offered more of an 'A' levels kinda thingy.. Meaning study, study, study.. RMIT on the other hand.. More towards poly..With projects and stuff.. So yea.. Royce and I agreed to checkout MDIS first before we make our decision.. I mean, we had 2 long years for goodness sake.. SIM was nice though.. The campus I mean.. Yup yup.. Had Ramli Burger for lunch.. YUMMY!.. Immediately reminded me of Manda.. And I kinda reminded her of the time she dropped it.. Haha.. Sry girl, just had too.. ;)

Yeap well, that's about it from me now.. Bye.. (:

2007-08-30T10:47:00.000+08:00

How's the week been going for me u ask?.. Hmm.. Well, not that good actually.. Movie with Serene on Tuesday was cancelled.. And gym today with Royce.. Yeap, u guessed it.. Cancelled too.. ): Serene had school work to catch up on and Royce.. Well, he had a hang over.. And it sounded bad too.. Take care dude..

So that just leaves teachers' day tmr and SIM open house on Saturday.. Just hope my friends don't bail on me on these 2 occasions too.. Come on u guys!.. Haha..

Well, Serene was absolutely fuming mad yesterday.. First and ever time I saw her so pissed.. I hope it's the one and only time I'll ever see her pissed.. Anyways, yea.. Turns out it was SECURITY!!!.. Did u know that SIA crew were given "special" treatment by not having to queue and just walk by everyone else outta security checkpoints?.. Who came up with those rules?!.. Anyhow, she was pissed cuz security was making a BIG yadayada outta lil matter.. Security.. -.- They think they have all authority and ~~abuse~~ use it.. =P

So yea.. Complained throughout the bus ride home but at least that was something we agreed on.. Haha..

Anyhow.. So motivated by the vid on the new Nike ZOOM shoes.. Makes me wanna go running everyday!.. Check this quote out.. It's by Asafa Powell.. World's fastest man.. (:

"WHEN I WAS YOUNG, I TOLD MYSELF I WANTED TO BE THE FASTEST MAN IN THE WORLD. TODAY, THAT'S WHAT I AM." - Asafa Powell

Well, I'm not gonna beat him or anything like that but.. I wanna try for the fastest 2.4km timing.. Since I'm not really feeling the whole marathon thingy.. Yup yup..

2007-08-29T15:55:00.000+08:00

Changed my blog layout.. The old one was getting a lil.. stale?.. Yea, trying to keep it simple yet sleek.. And that pic from deviantart.com.. Sweet.. (:

2007-08-28T11:46:00.000+08:00

It works!.. My iPod is ALIVE!.. And there was one song that I just wanna listen to.. Lyrics are below.. (:

It won't be long now
The music's on loud
We'll sing this song out
And then we'll lie down
I'll hold you close then
And let you know when
The space and time bend
And then we'll fall in

Go put on your best tonight
It's you and me and one spotlight
One more show one last time
We are ready

Say you will be all around me
When your body sets your heart free
Say you will be all around me

I'll look for your eyes
To keep me inside
When everything dies
With one last sunrise
And when we stand there
Together not scared
I'll dry your last tear
And then we'll just air

Go put on your best tonight
It's you and me and not much time
To watch the world burning bright
We are ready

Say you will be all around me
When your body sets your heart free
Say you will be all around me
Say you'll get me through the ending
Take my body set my heart free
Say you'll get me through the ending

Go put on your best tonight
It's you and me and one spotlight
One more show one last time
It won't be long now

Say you will be all around me
When your body sets your heart free
Say you will be all around me
Say you'll get me through the ending
Take my body set my heart free
Say you'll get me through the ending
Say you will be all around me

Last night was horrible!.. I had a running nose cuz I swept the floor in the morning..

(Sweeping the floor = Dust) + My sensitive nose = Leaky nose

Yea, and it got worst when I went to work.. I just stood there and Goo came like dripping out!.. Yea, EWWW-ness to the max.. I know.. And the medication I got from the pharmacy.. $10!.. And it worked for a while.. The worst part was 10 bucks bought me 10 tablets and just as I was about to pop one in my mouth, it dropped into the sink!.. That's a whole dollar gone!.. -.- But what can I do?.. Pick it up.. NO WAY!.. Germs and stuff.. Not when I'm already not feeling well.. And it's not that I'll pick it up either.. Sigh..

And before leaving for work with that nose of mine.. My com read.. "Fatal error on iPod".. Gosh, I hope that it isn't already dead.. Maybe it heard my previous post?..

Anyways, movie with Serene today.. Off.. She's got school work to catch up on and I don't blame her.. (: Another time then.. And thanks to Manda a.k.a my twin and Liqin for their msgs.. It made me feel a lil better.. (:

2007-08-26T23:39:00.000+08:00

Ok, call me slow but I just finished watching The Da Vinci Code on HBO.. CONTROVERSY I tell u!.. I'm BOGGLED now!.. And and, I now find history so interesting!.. Haha.. History = cool!.. =D Oh oh,and yays to Ferrari!.. Turkish Gran Prix!.. 1st and 2nd position!.. In ur face McLaren!.. Lol..

Anyways, went out with Royce today.. Sim Lim Square and then to Bugis.. Bussed down to Sim Lim square first.. Went looking for discounted iPods.. And wouldn't u know.. They're all sold out!.. Like all!.. Around the whole of Singapore!.. No more 30gb iPods!.. Great, just great.. And MacBook Pros are also all sold out!.. Well, yayness for Macs yea!.. Bye bye PCs!.. So that's 2 more things to my wish list..

Went watch shopping at bugis later on.. Royce has this way cool Ellesse watch.. Hope I spelt that correctly.. Yea, and it costs a MERE $319.. But it looks great!.. Black and gun metal gray on an all metallic skin, black face and gold dials.. Gorgeous!.. Ok, plus one more thing to my wish list.. And so it grows.. Haha.. And we also headed to the arcade.. Outruned 2 games.. Was fun.. Lol.. Even when we crashed the car, we just laughed!.. So yea that's basically the day all wrapped up..

One more thing to think about.. Apparently, there was this half marathon going on today.. And.. One more person died.. So yea, food for thought.. Should I participate in the marathon on 2nd december?.. I want to cuz.. Well, part of it was due to bragging.. I told TOO many ppl that I was going for it.. Me and big mouth!.. So yea, reps on the line.. And why don't I want to?.. NS + Payment + News about deaths.. So yea.. It's not a total no but I want more time to think.. Yeap.. If all else fails, least all this training will serve one purpose.. 2.4km runs!.. I wanna try to be as good as my dads' friend.. External companies pay him to run for them at events!.. His timing?.. 6 - 7 mins for 2.4km.. DAMN!.. But anyhow, yea.. That's something I wanna achieve!.. (:

Ok, am I cursed with bad bus drivers or what?!.. I left for work early AGAIN and wouldn't u know, I boarded that slow bus again.. -.- OMG-ness.. It was agonising, the trip to work.. There were absolutely no cars in front of him, he was on the 2nd lane.. The one next to the fastest lane.. And I swear the bus was walking I tell u!.. Isn't that road hogging?.. Can someone like sue SBS for doing this!.. And the party piece came when he passed this sign.. 70km/h.. -.- Yea uncle, 70km/h not follow the turtles pace speed!.. Arghh..

And and.. I woke up with sore ankles today.. Yea, they hurt quite bad.. Was due to running yesterday.. Weather was blazing hot and I just decided to go for a run at the stadium.. 13 laps on and it was enough for me.. Took me about half an hour.. Considering that I have NOT ran for months, I think it was a good start.. To marathon training.. Haa, make that half marathon training.. That's a total of 5.2km excluding the 400m warm up lap.. And 1/4 of the 21km that I had to run on 2nd december.. Yup yup..

Well, that's it from me.. Haha.. More complains!.. =P

Robby.. Out!.. (:

P.S. Congrats on ur driving test twin!.. (:

Got up on the wrong side of life today, yeah
Crash the car and I'm gonna be really late
My phone doesn't work cus it's out of range
Looks like it's just one of those kind of days

You can't kick me down I'm already on the ground
No you can't, but you couldn't catch me anyhow
Blue skies, but the sun isn't coming out, no
Today is like I'm under a heavy cloud

And I feel so alive
I can't help myself
Don't you realize

I just wanna scream and lose control
Throw my hands up and let it go
Forget about everything and run away, yeah
I just wanna fall and lose myself
Laughing so hard it hurts like hell
Forget about everything and run away, yeah

So-so's how I'm doing, if you're wondering
I'm in a fight with the world but I'm winning
Stay there, come closer it's at your own risk
Yeah you know how it is life can be a bitch

And I feel so alive
I can't help myself
Don't you realize

I just wanna scream and lose control
Throw my hands up and let it go
Forget about everything and run away, yeah
I just wanna fall and lose myself
Laughing so hard it hurts like hell
Forget about everything and run away, yeah

Run away, run away

I just wanna scream and lose control
Throw my hands up and let it go
Forget about everything and run away, yeah
I just wanna fall and lose myself
Laughing so hard it hurts like hell
Forget about everything and run away, yeah

I just wanna scream and lose control
Throw my hands up and let it go
Forget about everything and run away, yeah
I just wanna fall and lose myself
Laughing so hard it hurts like hell
Forget about everything and run away, yeah

Alright, forget what I said in my last 2 or 3 posts.. I must not be thinking clearly.. I'm fine now.. Yea.. (:

Went out for a movie with Serene yesterday.. Went to watch Rush Hour 3!.. And it was HILARIOUS!.. Lol.. Jackie Chan and Kris Tucker seriously made a good pair!.. His expressions, it was like he wasn't even trying!.. Overall, there wasn't much of a storyline but the action sequences and funny bits in between made up for it.. Yup yup.. Ok, why am I reviewing this movie?.. Blog, not review Robby.. Haha..

Oh, met my mum and sis on the way.. And yea, I was with Serene.. Lol.. My mum looked shocked to see us!.. Haha.. Just amazed that Serene has been keeping in touch with her primary school friends.. I think I may wanna do that as well.. Go onto friendster and try to locate them and stuff.. It'll be fun I guess.. Not seeing each other for so long and hearing all kinds of stories they have to tell..

I think the movie did the trick yea.. Also, opening up to friends helped too.. Thanks so much to Manda, Oliver and Serene for their listening ear.. Much appreciated!.. (:

2007-08-22T12:23:00.000+08:00

Maybe I should have..

2007-08-21T12:47:00.000+08:00

Ok, I'm feeling real depressed lately.. Just mixed I guess.. All this different feelings bottled up and not opening up.. Cuz I don't know who I can turn to right now.. Feel like crying sometimes.. Guess the tears help to ease the pain..

Maybe it's due to the events that happened over the last few days, the music I'm listening too.. Or maybe cuz I'm just like that?.. I dunno.. Songs help to ease the pain just a bit.. But I guess opening up is still the best way..

U said that u gave advice to someone.. But that someone doesn't want to listen to u.. U said said that that someone is being a fool for not listening to u.. But have u every thought of it this way.. What if.. Just what if, ur the fool giving unwanted advice.. And instead of helping that someone, ur actually hurting that someone even more?.. Have u ever thought about it that way?.. Think about it..

2007-08-20T23:46:00.000+08:00

Honestly what will become of me
don't like reality
It's way too clear to me
But really life is dandy
We are what we don't see
Missed everything daydreaming

Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
come to an end, come to an
Why do all good things come to end?
come to an end, come to an
Why do all good things come to an end?

Traveling I only stop at exits
Wondering if I'll stay
Young and restless
Living this way I stress less
I want to pull away when the dream dies
The pain sets it and I don't cry
I only feel gravity and I wonder why

Well the dogs were whistling a new tune
Barking at the new moon
Hoping it would come soon so that they could
Dogs were whistling a new tune
Barking at the new moon
Hoping it would come soon so that they could
Die die die die die

Well the dogs were barking at a new moon
Whistling a new tune
Hoping it would come soon
And the sun was wondering if it should stay away for a day 'til the feeling went away
And the sky was falling on the clouds were dropping and
the rain forgot how to bring salvation
the dogs were barking at the new moon
Whistling a new tune
Hoping it would come soon so that they could die.

Hello!.. (:

Just got back from the BBQ we had for the last 2 days.. It was GREAT and thanks to all u guys that made it!.. (: Only one draw back though, I'm sick of BBQ food already!.. I want real food now!.. Hahaha..

So day 1, friday 17th of august, sec school friends and poly peeps and not forgetting my friends from work.. Lemme rephrase that, friend from work.. LOl.. =D

Was really great to see them all again, especially my sec school friends.. Although I'd wish more friends could have made it.. Yup yup.. Sec school friends were funny.. Guess it's good that somethings stay the way they are.. Royce, as funny as usual.. Xing, iron chef.. Even my mum was impressed!.. Lol.. And Ian too.. Fhami, one of my poly peeps was going in the same time, place and date as me!.. Ok, I,ve got like a buddy now.. Guess it's better than going in alone and all.. Yeap.. Sec school friends stayed on till late and we headed for the bowling alley..

Turns out that the bowling alley opened till 3am!.. So, if u can't sleep and have the urge to bowl, u know where to go!.. Lol.. But the lady at the counter was being such a bitch!.. Can't even close one eye for friends of the member.. It's this member card.. Only the person holding it could could get discounts.. Like WTH!.. =P

Anyways, bowled a few games with my sis and bro joining us.. Good game, nothing too fancy but I sucked.. Haven't played for quite sometime and our skills were like ugghhh.. Thongs showed up later at midnight.. Headed back to the chalet for games till 5am went they left.. Played soccer and that got everyone laughing!.. Xing and his Nigeria vs China match.. Lol.. There was this player named Qi Hong!.. That seriously did the trick man!.. Burst out into laughter after that and even more with ridiculous goals!.. Lol.. Overall, AWESOME night!.. (:

Day 2,saturday 18th august, my relatives and poly peeps from my clas came over.. Felt a lil weird this bubble, shield kinda vibe between my friends and my relatives.. Yea.. When I first saw them.. I was like.. GUYS?!.. Woah!.. All of them were in already.. Yea, lucky me right?.. Anyways yea, all short hair and stuff.. And they were all into the whole NS/ military kinda thingy already.. Lol.. They were like re-enacting everything they went through.. Guess mine will be totally different though.. Since tekong = basic military training and civil defence = basic rescue training..

But from the way it seems, they're having so much more fun and they said it's slack there.. So kinda wondering what's CD gonna be like.. Well, have some friends saying like.. It's better to go to CD since tekong is just running around with guns and stuff while CD is all about real life kinda situations.. Yea..

Okies, like I said.. I'm home now.. And with cracks on my big toes!.. ): To dry I guess and I have to walk all funny.. *ouchies.. Right, gotta apply lotion now.. I'll end here.. See ya.. (:

Robby.. Out!.. (:

P.S. Photos from the BBQ.. Well, didn't really take that many.. Actually, didn't even bring the camera!.. Haha.. Did take some with my phone though.. Speaking of phones, my twin has gotten her new phone!.. A nokia 6300!.. Slimness!.. (:

2007-08-16T13:09:00.000+08:00

[Robby - Is so loving his new specs!]

Hello!.. (:

Yes yes, I've finally gotten them!.. My new specs!.. UBERLY AWESOMELY STUNNING SWEET NEW SPECS!.. Ok, enough with the bragging.. Hah.. Well, yesterday was the last haircut that I got before going into NS.. Tried out supercuts though, and they had student price.. 22 bucks yea, guess that's resonable.. Best part was I got it from a director stylist!.. WOOT!.. Oh oh, and I absolutely love head massages!.. I think I'm starting to get addicted to it!.. Lol.. (:

Met my cousin and aunt on the way to get my haircut.. Cousin's leaving for Canada on the 25th this month.. Back to studying in uni for her.. Did I mention that it was a schlorship?.. Yea, she's cool!..

Headed to semei next to collect my specs.. When I first wore them, everything was like clear again.. Don't know why though but this song jumped into my head.. You know the oldies song, the one with "I can see clearly now the rain is gone.." Yea, that one.. So random right?.. Haha.. Anyways, met my sis later on at bugis.. Bought comics before leaving for marina.. While paying up, saw this game called Munchkin.. Reminded me straight away of Manda!.. Haha.. She said it was a fun game to play.. Never really got to play it that time at minds.. Hopefully someday yea.. (:

My sis wanted to buy slippers and stuff.. Havaianas.. Anyways, on the way there, we played the how-well-do-you-know-me game.. And.. Sigh, I lost.. She knows more about me than I do about her.. Yea yea, I know whatcha thinking.. Bad brother right?.. =P
But still, lotsa love!.. (:

So anyhow, walked round marina square.. Window shopped for a while.. Saw so many things that I wanted to buy!.. Quiksilver boardshorts, Quiksilver wallets, Ripcurl bermudas.. She bought this bangle and an iHEARTboys necklace from Diva.. Which reminds me.. I still owe her a bdae present.. Now to mention my dad and my mum also!.. Ok, next pay cheque is going to be on presents!.. Lol..

Oh the train ride home, we were drained!.. Dead dead tired!.. Popped out!.. And I still had work in the evening.. Was fun though.. Going with her and stuff!.. (:

Bus ride to work.. Saw the ad of this show I was dying to see!.. And it's out next week, 23rd of august!.. DEAD SILENCE! It's a twisted pictures production.. The same people that brought u SAW!.. Yes yes, been waiting since the beginning of this year for it to come out!.. Another must watch show!.. Four movies in total I wanna catch.. Rush hour 3, Ratatouille, Dead Silence and Evan Almighty!.. Hopefully my wallet still holds together after that.. Haha..

Okies, that's about it.. BBQ tmr! See u guys there!.. (:

Robby.. Out!.. (:

P.S. 8 more days till one month of friendship.. U know who u are!.. (:

2007-08-14T12:02:00.000+08:00

Hey!.. (:

Woke up this morning and.. *Ouchies!.. My abs still hurt.. =/
And what's worst, so does my thighs now!..
Tried doing a new workout routine for my abs on sunday..
One of the exercises was called a reverse crunch..
I must have done something wrong cuz not only were my abs hurting, so were my thighs the next morning..
And I think I maybe, just maybe made it worst by going to the stadium to do another workout yesterday.. =X
So yea, whole body aches now.. Aww well, serves me right, right?.. LOL..

Bus ride to work yesterday was.. HORRIBLY LONG!!!..
I made it a point to get outta house early so that I would reach there early..
I mean, that's the whole point of being early right?..
Turns out that the bus and the bus driver had other ideas..
I swear to u.. 2 things were happening..
Either the bus was dying or.. The person driving the bus was..
I mean like in my mind I was like.. "Oh for goodness sake!.. Could u speed it up a lil!.. Just a lil?.."..

Anyways, got there in time and met Nicole and Amrita..
Went to draw money next and queued at the ATM..
When it was my turn, this female SECURITY OFFICER walked up to the machine..
No no.. Lemme rephrase that.. Walked passed, stared at me and went ahead of me.. -.-
???.. Security officers.. Just because they have authority, they abuse.. Opps, I mean use it..
So, being the good man that I am.. I allowed her to go ahead..
And she took like so DAMN long!.. Arghh.. If u wanna cut the queue, at least do ur business fast or something..

Yes yes.. Shouldn't be so negative right but what can I say?..
Okies.. Positive thoughts!.. Positive thoughts Robby!.. (:

Oh, I came across this piece on the deviantart webbie the other day..
It's pretty cool yea.. All this mixed feelings kinda picture..
Well, not sure bout the title though but yea.. Looks awesome!..

Attention Whore by Endling
Alritey, that's all i have to say for now..

Robby.. Out!.. (:

2007-08-12T21:26:00.000+08:00

Hello!.. (:

I have a PIMPLE OUTBREAK!.. I'm not sure why I'm telling the whole world about it but yea, I do.. And it's hurting like crazy!.. I've got one above my lip, one on the top of my right eye and the other at the side of my left eye.. Kinda makes me feel like I've got a bermuda triangle on my face!.. Lol.. They're HUGE!.. And not to mention painful!.. *Ouchies.. Please go away or become smaller or something..

Anyways, about my post yesterday.. The marathon thingy.. I went to check out their webbie and guess what.. It read, 21km early bird special.. $45.. $45?! to run a race?!.. Ok, the goodie bags may have contributed to the more than steep price but still.. It's way too expensive I guess.. But Manda said it was around there so yea.. If I'm not participating in the marathon, the only other reason I'll still train for is of course for NS.. 2.4km run.. Which my best timing I have to say is 10:14.. Considering I'd never hit under 12mins during my secondary school days.. I think it's pretty good.. Yeap.. But my dream is to hit below 6mins!.. (:

Well, specs coming this wednesday.. I hope.. Well, that's what the guy said anyways.. And I can't wait!.. So yea.. I think I'll end here.. My mouse is dying as I'm typing this.. Time to get a new one!.. Haa.. Alright..

Robby.. Out!.. (:

2007-08-11T16:17:00.000+08:00

Hey!.. (:

Back to work yesterday and it was nice to be back.. After 2 long days of break.. Well deserved I might add.. ;) And in-conjunction with national day, there was those push cart thingys that u see at the shopping malls.. Yea, apparently they were giving away free KACANG PUTIH kinda snacks!.. OMGness!.. FREE!.. And then reality settled in.. It read.. "Not for airport staff".. -.-

Anyways, yea..
Good Rest + Friendly Passengers = Great Working Environment!

Woke up today hoping to get a YES answer from my dad.. And his answer..
YES!!! Woot!.. NEW SPECS!.. OAKLEYS!.. Came back from the shop a while back and the the specs costed?..$550!!! Yes, ok.. That's a lot to swallow for a pair of frames.. But hey, their Oakleys!.. And NO I didn't buy them for the brand.. Ok, maybe a lil.. But I mean, I bought them cuz they're reliable..

Oakley = Reliable brand.. =D

One of the shops that I went to said that 2 of their customers came back to him after their specs had been ran over by a truck!.. They went back and with a lil bending here and there.. They were as good as new!.. Talk about tough!..

Oliver said that I'm high maintenance.. And the worst part is that my family agrees!.. Well, it's not so much about buying brands and stuff.. But I buy them cuz they're reliable, comfortable and stuff.. OK, the brand thingy might have something to do with it but.. That's besides the point.. U buy something that u can rely on, something that's comfortable.. Brands are there cuz ppl buy them and wear them!.. I trust my eyes with Oakleys, Jeans with Levi's and feet with Nike.. So if that makes me high maintenance then so be it.. I'm comfortable with I put on.. (:

Anyways, Manda finally lemme in on her blog!.. That's so totally nice of her.. Thanks twin!.. (: And I also read Ling's blog too.. Seems like both of them are talking bout the marathon at the end of the year.. The Standard Charted Singapore Marathon.. And I've been wanting to participate ever since last year.. Just checked out the main page and the race is on the 2nd of December.. Only one problem.. NS!.. Arghh!.. No matter, I think I'll still train up for it and participate in at least the half marathon.. That's 21km!.. (:

Ritey, that's it from me..

Robby.. Out!.. (:

P.S. I know that it's none of my business but for Manda's bf wanting to participate in the race just to get the shirt for her.. I mean, just the thought of it.. That's uberly swt!.. (:

2007-08-10T16:22:00.000+08:00

I smile, you laugh, I look away
I sigh, you ask me why, I say,
It's ok and I am just feeling' down
Your hand on mine I hear the words
If only love had found us first,
Our lives they would be different, oh
So I stand and wait, I am just a man, oh

Where would we be now baby,
If we found each other first,
Where would we be now baby,

And now I must confess, that I'm a sinking ship
And I'm anchored by the weight of my heart
Cause it's filled with these feelings
But I keep my true thoughts locked, beside my hearts black box
And it won't be found, it won't survive through the smoke or the wreckage
So I crash and burn, I got a lot of things to learn, oh

Where would we be now baby,
If we found each other first
What would you do now darling,
If I said these simple words
I'll wait, I'll wait
As long as you want
But where would we be now baby

I'll wait, I'll wait

Where would we be now baby,
If we found each other first
What would you do now darling,
If I said these simple words
I'll wait, I'll wait
As long as you want
But where would we be now baby
I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait

Where Would We Be Now

Hello!..

First off.. HAPPY NATIONAL DAY SINGAPORE!.. (:
I've gotta be honest, I'm not that really patriotic but yea..
I've got enough respect for my country to say the least.. ;)

Went to a friend of a friends bqq last night..
All Royce's idea.. I seriously felt so alienated!.. -.-
Well, he said that it was actually gonna be a meet up btw his gf and her friend..
It was gonna be a national day countdown thingy at some pub..

But plans changed when his gf said that her friend DISAPPEARED!.. Ooo..
Yea, so it changed to a bbq meet up for another friend..
It was held at bedok.. I don't exactly know where the place is..
But it was a condo.. That I remember.. Lol..

He was supposedly gonna intro me to some girl..
Well, he made it seem that I was like despo.. -.-
Thanks dude.. Yea, well her name's Li Qin..
And she's 16 this year.. Kinda young?.. I guess?.. Yea..

So anyhow, I found it quite awkward.. I guess from my POV I found it that way..
I mean, I don't mean to bad mouthing anyone but.. I guess it was a vibe thingy..
Yea, a lil anti-social and not exactly on the same frequency..
Coz there was a whole group of them.. Childhood friends and stuff..
And I was like a friend of a friend..
Did manage to talk to her though.. Pretty nice girl.. (:
Well, the thing that was cool was that she had the same b'dae as my bro!..
Last day of the last month of the year!.. That's right, 31st December!..

There was one moment when me and Royce came back from dinner..
And she went to open the side gate of the condo..
Apparently she was drunk.. Yes, they popped open the wine and vodka when we were gone.. Haha..
Anyways, so we were just talking and stuff.. And then her sis came in and liked..
"Are you trying to chat up my sis!?"..
And she goes all defensive and protective and aggresive and all..
In my mind I was like.. Chill man.. We were just talking..
OK, I understand the whole protective over sis thing but I thought she was over doing it..

The night ended with the whole group of us playing ddr at Li Qin's house..
That's Dance Dance Revolution for u ppl that don't know..
Ok, I'm guilty too.. I didn't know that till yesterday..
Then again, I wouldhave never imagined myself playing it..
Gave it a try and I'm telling u that game's for kids!.. =P
Also learnt how to play mahjong!.. Lol..
Li Qin helped me a lot!.. Nice of her to take the time and explain the chinese characters to me.. (:
I can't read chinese!.. Must go read up or study or something.. Haha..

NDP was GREAT!.. The backdrop STUNNING!..
Not that I was there or anything.. But yea.. WAY COOL!..
That's about it really..

Robby.. Out!.. (:

P.S. First song off Good Charlotte's album this year wasn't what I had expected of them.. But their latest song has been going round my head more than a few times already.. Lyrics below.. (:

She’s going out to forget they were together
All that time he was taking her for granted
She wants to see if there’s more
Than he gave she’s looking for

He calls her up
He’s tripping on the phone
Now he doesn’t want her out there and alone
Now he knows she’s moving it
Knows she’s using it
Now he’s loosing it
She don’t care

Everybody
Put up your hands Say:
”I don’t wanna be in love, I don’t wanna be in love”
Feel the beat now
If you’ve got nothing left say:
”I don’t wanna be in love, I don’t wanna be in love”
Back it up now
You’ve got a reason to live say:
”I don’t wanna be in love, I don’t wanna be in love”
Feeling good now
Don’t be afraid to get down say:
”I don’t wanna be in love, I don’t wanna be in love”

He was always giving her attention
Working hard to find the things she mentioned
He was dedicated
By most sucka’s hated
That girl was fine
But she didn’t appreciate him

She calls him up she’s tripping on the phone
Now he had to get up and he ain’t coming home
Now he’s trying to forget her
That's how he got with her
When he first met her
When they first got together

Everybody
Put up your hands Say:
”I don’t wanna be in love, I don’t wanna be in love”
Feel the beat now
If you’ve got nothing left say:
”I don’t wanna be in love, I don’t wanna be in love”
Back it up now
You’ve got a reason to live say:
”I don’t wanna be in love, I don’t wanna be in love”
Feeling good now
Don’t be afraid to get down say:
”I don’t wanna be in love, I don’t wanna be in love”

To the beat

You got nothing to lose,
Don’t be afraid to get down

We break up it’s something that we do now
Everyone has got to do it sometime
It’s okay
Let it go
Get out there and find someone

It’s too late to be tripping on the phone here
Get off the wire
Now everything is good here
Stop what you’re doing
You don’t wanna ruin
The chance that you got to
Find a new one

Everybody
Put up your hands Say:
”I don’t wanna be in love, I don’t wanna be in love”
Feel the beat now
If you’ve got nothing left say:
”I don’t wanna be in love, I don’t wanna be in love”
Back it up now
You’ve got a reason to live say:
”I don’t wanna be in love, I don’t wanna be in love”
Feeling good now
Don’t be afraid to get down say:
”I don’t wanna be in love, I don’t wanna be in love”

No

Now you know what to do
So come on
Feeling good

Hello!.. (:

Just came back from work and eating my mum's home made fruit tarts..
DELICIOUS!.. Yum yum..
Whole family chipped in to help out with the tarts yesterday..
And they most certainly turned out GREAT!..

So anyways, I met this girl.. Ok, not met more like asked if the bus had gone..
That was last week.. Last friday, I saw her again..
Coming out from the security clearance..
And I was just gonna ask for her name when she said..
"You're Robby aren't you?"..

My mind = Cold sweat and OMG!..
How'd she know me and all..
Apparently when I got to know more..
Turns out that she was a primary school mate of mine..
A prefect that was taking care of my class.. Lol..
She said she could recognise me coz my face hasn't changed much.. -.-

I mean I'm thankful and all the ppl still recognise me but..
I wanna look matured and this isn't a good start.. Haha..
Yea, ppl do tell me that I'm younger than I look but still..
U get the picture.. Btw, her name's Serene..

Well, I saw her again today and she was with her friend..
Also from the same class.. Also a prefect.. Also sorta know me..
Her name's Christine.. Yeap..
It's seriously how cool when this kinda things happen..
I mean meeting a person that u have never seen before for after like almost a decade!..

Ok so I'm guessing I do have friends everywhere now..
Just popping up here and there..
Oh not forgetting, I asked Christine where will she be dropping..
Turns out, it was at the same stop as me!..
Ok then when we got down, we were just asking each other where we stayed..
Turns out when I pointed at my block, she said that she lived in the opposite block!..
OMG-ness!.. That was seriously shocking!..
And all this time we haven't even met!.. Small world?.. NO WAY!.. Lol..

So yea, I thought that was a very interesting day..
Wouldn't u think the same?.. ;)

Hello!..

Another week has passed and another week closer to my enlistment..
Strange it seems how fast time flies and we're already in august..
Guess the saying that life is short is so true!..

Just looking back at all the things that happened in the past week..
Here's a lil stuff, those lil things that happened..

On friday, while walking to the bus stop to take the bus to work..
I saw this cat lying on the floor.. On its back and legs up in the air..
And I just walked by it.. Then stopped.. Looked back and walked on again..
Then stopped again.. Looked back.. Wondered..
Took a few steps back.. Looked closely..
Wanted to see if it was breathing..
Coz if it wasn't, it wouldn't be sleeping that it was doing..
Yea, it would be a dead cat!..
Tapped it a lil with my foot.. And..
It woke up!.. Lol.. Stretched and looked at me!..
And just laid there..
To me, it was phew.. Thank goodness!.. To the cat, I think it was..
WHY DID U WAKE ME UP?!.. Haha..
Ok, all this happened coz I have never seen a sleeping cat in my life!..

Towards the end of the week, for 3 consecutive days..
I've been getting calls from weird ppl..
All saying they wanted to talk to this guy called benjamin!..
I'm like so pissed every time coz they are so RUDE!..
I can't stand rude ppl!.. OMG!.. Like talk nicely can..
Ur calling me after all.. Arghh.. One more time and they'll get it I tell u!..
And my dad was so mean to prank call me after I told him the story..
Rest of the family just started laughing..
I'm so naive!.. -.-

And I've been having bad dreams lately..
The worst one being dreaming my dad passed away..
And I dreamt that TWICE in 2 weeks..
It makes me cry at night after dreaming bout that..
Ok, not exactly cry but just feel like it and feel sad..
A friend of mine told me maybe it's coz I haven't been spending much time with him..
Working every single night and not being able to see him..
Guess it's true.. But I'm having off days on weekends so that's gonna help a lot!.. (:

Yeap, and just got back for my cousins place..
Had a buffet dinner there!.. Met up with relatives and stuff..
Yeap, and one of my cousin.. Janet - Volleyball player..
She said she wouldn't mind playing during her september school holidays!..
Finally, someone to play volleyball with!.. (:

Well, that's it I guess..

Robby.. Out!.. (:

Dear Bobbie,
Do you remember when you were young and very pretty? I do.
I remember pleated skirts, black and white sattle shoes.
Do you remember dancing that night?
I do, I still think of you when we dance,
Although we cant jitterbug as we did then.

Do you remember when,
How long has it been?
1945 you opened my blue eyes,
To see a whole new life.

Do you remember when,
I told you this that night,
That if you're by my side,
When everyday begins,
I'll fall for you again.
I made a promise when,
I told you this that night.

I'll be fine.
When I die, then I die loving you.
It's alright, I'll be fine.
When I die then I die loving you,
Loving you, loving you.

Do you remember the times we would give up on each other and get back together.
Then we finally was married in 1949.
We drove the yellow convertible all night long.
Do you remember? I do.

Life has led us here,
Together all these years.
This house that we have made,
Holds twenty-thousand days.
And memories we've saved,
Since life has lead us here.

And I'll be fine.
Cause when I die, then I die loving you.
It's alright, I'll be fine.
Cause when I die then I die loving you,
Loving you, loving you.

I'm coming home to you,
Stepping off my shoes.
Resting in my chair.
See you standing there,
The silver in your hair.

I'm coming home to you,
When I lay tonight, when I close my eyes,
I know the sun will rise,
Here or the next life.
As long as your still mine, then its alright.

I'll be fine
Cause when I die, then I die loving you
It's alright, I'll be fine
Cause when I die then I die loving you
Loving you, loving you

You have gray hair now,
But you're a beautiful women,
And the years have been good to both of us.
We walk slow now, but we still have each other.
The glue of love is still bonding us together.
That is what I remember. Do you remember?

Hello!..

Well, back to work yesterday..
Had 2 new peeps joining us and I hadda be sorta supervisor for a day!..
Lol.. Was fun teaching them.. But the funny thingy was..
And I do mean FUNNY..

Everyone there was in suh a good mood yesterday!..
I mean seriously.. Sales staff were extremely friendly!.. Which was kinda rare.. =X
Cashiers were also super nice and most of all..
The passengers were so so so FRIENDLY!..

Not sure why.. Maybe coz it's end of the month and everyone..
And I do mean everyone!.. Including the passengers must have gotten their pay or something.. Yeap..
Hope it stays this way this evening!..

*Crosses fingers and prays!.. (:

So anyhow, pcitures from tuesday's outing!.. Grabbed from Ling of course!.. Thanks!.. (:

Manda, Ling and Me.. (:

The white light glowing round Manda.. And I'm blurred out..

Photos before the movie!..

Ling must have done something to scare Marge!.. Lol..

Jelly bean printed pillar!..

Love to the jelly bean pillar!.. Lol..

More love yea!.. (:

Board games at Mindcafe..

Seeing eye to eye.. Lol..

Manda and I waiting with Ling for her bus..

Take a lookie at the one after this..

I'll like to call this "Point of Laughter"..

Food for thought.. Or rather thinking of what my tummy wants..

Girls.. Self-admitting they were cam-whoring in the loo..

Robby.. Out!.. (:

P.S. Once again, thanks to Ling for the photos!.. And thanks to Ling and Manda for such a great time!.. (:

2007-07-31T23:02:00.000+08:00

Hello!.. (:

Just came back from my outing with Ling and Manda today!..
And today was also my first off day in like 21 freaking days!..
Haha.. But enuff bout that, here's what went down!.. (:

Apparently, I was so excited this morning that I woke up at 8am!..
I dunno why though..
Maybe it's cuz all my guy friends, or rather most of them have already enlisted..
And my girlfriends are either starting uni soon or are already working full time..
So other than working, I sorta have this huge FREE time where I have nuts to do..

Anyways, met Ling at tamp mrt at 11.30am..
And.. Sigh, yes.. I was late again.. By 5mins..
But Manda was later than that though.. Haha..
Trained down to douby ghaut where.. On the way..
We heard this pair of girls (Asians).. Probably singaporean?.. Chit chatting..
Their ANG MOH accents were so fake I'm telling u!.. OMG!..
They wanna act white with all that accents and stuff but the only thats white on them were their SK II white kinda skin!..
I'm telling u, it was so fake when I heard it that I thought to myself..
They sound filipino!.. =P

So anyways, heading to PS to hang lunch.. KFC!..
And we were all chatting bout spongebob episodes!..
Patrick ROCKS!.. Haha..
Took a stroll through the mall after that and cam-whored a lil..

Footed down to The Cathay later on, bought movie tickets for the SIMPSONS MOVIE and cam-whored sumore with the simpsons movie posters and live sized figures themselves!..
Haha.. It was like so FUN!..
And the pillars on the outside were all lined with jellybean prints!..
*HUGS and LOVES!.. (:

Well, movie was at 5.50pm so we footed down to MindCafe..
Free flow of drinks and played games there!.. Haha..
To kick start, the simpsons monopoly!.. Like we were gonna watch that later sumore!..
Lol.. I was fun with Ling being banker and all..
All the properties were new so we were so blur!..
And what's more, we got our own diff set of rules!..

Tossed out the monopoly after some rounds.. It got a lil boring..
Next came sitting duck!.. Lol.. It's a comical game where u line ducks up and shoot'em..
Choosing the ducks that u want first that is.. Haha..
It was more fun than monopoly I would say but killing duckies is fun!.. :)

On to this bean game next and it was quite intense to understand and all..
But overall, it wasn't too bad.. Yeap.. And finally to this block game..
Blogkus?.. If I'm not wrong.. Yeap.. Really really had an uberific time!..
No ah bengs and lians there!.. No smokers!.. GREAT place to chill!..
If there was ever a 'How could we improve?'.. My answer has to be..
MORE TOILETS!.. U gonna need that for all the free flow of drinks we're getting!.. LOL..

Footed back to The Cathay for the movie..
It was HILARIOUS!.. Every line.. One after the one..
It'll tickle ur funny bone silly!..
It's by far the comedy event of the year!..
A lil on the short side but overall..
4.5 popcorns!.. (:

After that, footed down to raffles city shopping centre where we had our dinner..
Ling had soupy stuff while Manda and I headed for prata and mutabak!..
Scrolled through River Island for awhile and escorted Ling to the bus stop..
Eyed a pair of flip flops I wanted from Quiksilver and the pants from River Island..
They were $49 and $69 respectively..
And Ling was like quote "Robby, you're 20 and in the next 5 minutes.. Years, you may get married!"..
Haha.. 5 minutes?.. Lol.. That was like so funny!..

So anyhow, Ling's bus took ages to come by but the important thing..
It came!.. We talked about stuff while waiting.. Manda and Ling going to uni..
And how we must treasure friends and appreciate them the way they are.. (:

Trained back to tamp with Manda after Ling's bus came..
So that was it.. A lil on the lengthy side but I dun really get this too often..
Well, that's about it from me!..

Robby.. Out!.. (:

P.S. Thanks you guys for such an AWESOME time!.. Hope to do it again soon!.. (:

2007-07-30T23:51:00.000+08:00

Hello!.. (:

So today wasn't such a good day after all..
It started out with me waking up from a dream..
I dreamt of ghosts!.. Like those no shit scary asian ones!..

I dreamt that it had my body and it said it wanted to trade it for something in return!..
Can u imagine how freaky it was to wake up to that?!..
And that was only the beginning of the day!..

So anyhow, it was nice to see the sun again after for like so long!..
This climate thing is serious and ppl should do something about it!..

Climate change = No more smoking!.. XD

Went online and I think I pushed more than a few wrong buttons..
Why do I keep doing that?.. Sigh..
I really must learn to change..
I'll make it a habbit from now on..

And Ling gave me so useful advice..
Really needa think carefully at what I'm doing.. Yeap..
And before u know it, it rained!.. -.-
Like what else is new..

It did stop before I left for work though..
Half way walking near the stadium, it poured.. AGAIN!..
I was drenched!.. I ran over an unshelther overhead bridge..
And after I reached ground level, it stopped!.. -.-

OMGness mann.. Like the big guy up there is definitely telling me it isn't my day..
So, yea.. Cold and wet when I got into the air conditioned transit area of the airport..
I work there!.. Lol..
That's how my day went.. And for those out there reading, I hope u guys had a better one then I did.. (:

Having mummy's home made ice cream now!.. Yes, I did say home made!..
My mummy's the best!.. She can make ice cream, cook, bake cakes!..
She's already done two beautiful wedding cakes!..
Luv u mum!.. Well, that's it from me..

Meeting Ling and Manda tmr..
Simpsons movie and dinner!..
Can't wait.. Ritey, cya round!..

Robby.. Out!.. (:

I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cry
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie is made up on your side

When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now

When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day and make it ok
I miss you

I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do reminds me of you
And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor
And they smell just like you, I love the things that you do

When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now

When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day and make it ok
I miss you

We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were, yeah
All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I'd do, I'd give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me, yeah

When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day and make it ok
I miss you

Hello!.. (:

I got a rude awakening this morning..
Woke up, turned on the TV and..
Heard sparks flying with the thingy itslf!..
Yes, it's spoilt.. AGAIN!.. Arhh..

And the worst part is, the repair company is not open on weekends!..
OMGness!.. No TV till monday.. Or worst even.. Next week!..
I'm officially glued to the com now!.. =D

So, another wet day today.. I want the sun!..
I wanna go play volleyball, go wakeboarding.. Anything to do with the outdoors!..
I can't even go for my jogs or do pull ups at the stadium no more..
When it's hot, we complain.. When it's wet, we still complain..
Heh.. Humans, go figure.. Lol..

Well, off to work in an hour or so.. So, that's it..

Robby.. Out!.. (:

P.S. Are u thinking what I'm thinking B2!.. Haha.. (:

My insides all turned to ash, so slow
And blew away as I collapsed, so cold
A black wind took them away, from sight
And held the darkness over day, that night

And the clouds above move closer
Looking so dissatisfied
But the heartless wind kept blowing, blowing
I used to be my own protection, but not now
Cause my path had lost direction, somehow
A black wind took you away, from sight
And held the darkness over day, that night

And the clouds above move closer
Looking so dissatisfied
And the ground below grew colder
As they put you down inside
But the heartless wind kept blowing, blowing

So now you're gone, and I was wrong
I never knew what it was like, to be alone

On a Valentine's Day, on a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day, on a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day, on a Valentine's Day
(I used to be my own protection, but not now)
On a Valentine's Day, on a Valentine's Day
(Cause my mind has lost direction, somehow)
On a Valentine's Day, on a Valentine's Day
(I used to be my own protection, but not now)
On a Valentine's Day, on a Valentine's Day
(Cause my mind has lost direction, somehow)

Alright..

Yesterday was pretty much the same as any other day..
But after meeting Ling and Amanda on Tuesday..
I've decided that.. Just live life!.. Everyday!.. To the brink!.. To the limit!.. To the max!..
Have fun, be emotional, do whatever u want!.. Coz life is just to short!..

Yes, I know that this may come as such a random thought but..
Over these few weeks, I've been in such deep thought..
What do I wanna do next time?.. What do I wanna achieve?.. Where do I go after all this?..
All this thinking and planning.. Why do we do it?..

It's not like we'll be able to achieve what we set out to do..
I mean like majority of us who get jobs..
Those jobs won't even be related to what we studied in school..
I'm not being negative but I'm just stating facts..

THINK ABOUT IT..

Anyways, just had a mail from iTunes..
Yellowcard's new album is out!.. And yes, I've gone out to buy it already!.. (:
Songs are relatively more toward ocean avenue than lights and sounds.. Yeap..
Well, I'll end here..

Robby.. Out!.. (:

P.S. Think about it yea..

2007-07-25T13:06:00.000+08:00

Hello!..

It's been one week since I blogged..
In blogging terms, that means it's super un-updated..
So anyways,..

I'll not start/ talk about all the negative things that happened over the last week..
Heard from a television ad that happy ppl lived 8 yrs longer than negative ppl..
So, I'll stop all the negative stuff from now on.. (:
That's if I really get provoked!..

Lunch with Hui Ling yesterday was great!.. Uberific I might add!..
First time in a long while since I've seen her!.. More like 2 long yrs!..
So glad to finally see her again!.. Yup yup..

We spent lunch.. Ok, more like the whole afternn at Seoul Garden..
From like 12.30pm till 5pm.. Yea, I have to stress on the time..
Was a new record!..
Anyways, yea.. We caught up on lotsa stuff.. Past, present, future..
Those kinda stuff.. Lotsa things been going on for her..
And I'm glad to say that she hasn't changed very much..
Still the same girl that I knew back in secondary school..
She did tell me about her sis too.. And honestly, I can't wait to meet her!.. Lol..
Turns out that our kinda thinking is almost the same.. Haha..

Went to take some photos with the Simpsons after that..
Their movie opens tmr and I've been waiting for it for a long time now!..
Went on to look for boardshorts later on and she called her friend Amanda along..
Nice girl.. Yeap.. And the 2 of them seriously look like sisters together.. (:

So, that was pretty much it for the day.. Off to work after that..
Been working for like 14 days straight.. =/
Well, must stay positive yea.. More $$$ I guess!.. (:

Yeap, well.. That's about it for now..
Stay positive and smile!.. (:

Robby.. Out!.. (:

P.S. I'm glad that I still have friends like u that I can talk to and count on.. Thanks!.. (:
Hope to hear that movie next week is on!.. Meet up soon yea.. In the meanwhile, take care!.. Oh, one more thing.. PHOTOS!.. Haha.. (:

2007-07-18T11:25:00.000+08:00

Hello..

I'm beginning to think that I have no life..
Seriously.. Works been taking up all my night life..
Well, it's not say I'm very busy or anything like that..
But the wait for NS is seriously sickening and it's killing me.. Mentally..

Like they say.. Prisoners on death row are pretty much dead thanks to the waiting time they have to endure rather than the physical state of being dead when thay're hung..
That's pretty much it..

Robby.. Out..

2007-07-16T10:22:00.000+08:00

Exactly how I'm feeling right now..

We watch the season pull up its own stakes
And catch the last weekend of the last week
Before the gold and the glimmer have been replaced,
Another sun soaked season fades away

You have stolen my heart

Invitation only, grand farewells
Crash the best one, of the best ones
Clear liquor and cloudy eyed, too early to say goodnight

You have stolen my heart

And from the ballroom floor we are in celebration
One good stretch before our hibernation
Our dreams assured and we all, will sleep well

You have stolen
You have stolen my heart

I watch you spin around in your highest heels
You are the best one, of the best ones
We all look like we feel

You have stolen my
You have stolen my heart

Dashboard Confessional
Stolen
Dusk And Summer
