Liars Poker

2010-11-28T23:05:00.003+08:00

This is an excerpt from the book Liars Poker, and how a guy gets into Salomon Brothers and gets trained. The scene is from a classroom filled with trainees.

"Each trainee had to decide for himself. Thus was born the Great Divide.Those who chose to put on a full court grovel from the opening buzzer found seats in the front seats in the front of the classroom, where they sat through the entire 5 month program (lips puckered). Those who treasured their pride,or perhaps thoguht it best to remain aloof, feigned cool indifference by sittin gin the back row, and hurling paper wads at managing directors.

I considered myself an exception, of course. I was accused by some of being a front row person because I liked to sit next to the man from Harvard school and watch him draw organisational charts. I wondered if he would succeed (he didnt). Also, I asked too many questions. It was assumed that I did this to ingratiate myself with the speakers, like a front row person. This was untrue. But try telling that to the back row seaters. I lamely compensated for my curiosity by hurling a few paper wads at important traders. And my stock rose dramatically when I got thrown out of class while reading the newspaper while a trader spoke.

Of all exceptions, however, the Japanese were the greatest. The Japanese undermined any analysis of our classroom culture. All six of them sat in the front row and slept. Their heads rocked back and forth, and on occasion fell over to one side, so that their cheeks ran parallel to the floor. So it was hard to argue that they were just listening with their eyes shut, as Japanese businessmen are inclined to do. The most charitable explanation for their apathy was that they couldnt understand english. They kept to themselves, however,and you could never be sure of their language skills or their motives. Their leader was a man named Yoshi. Each morning and afternoon the back row boys made bets on how many minutes it would take Yoshi to fall asleep. They liked to think Yoshi was a calculating troublemaker. Yoshi was their hero. A small cheer would go up in the back row when Yoshi crashed, partly because someone had just won a pile of money, but also in appreciation of any man who had the balls to fall asleep in the front row."

The last paragraph was my fav!

I woke to the sound of my cat's incessant mewing. She was hungry and we had run outta cat food. Tough luck. Not for my cat, but for me. My day usually begins at 1, but now cuz I gotta feed the poor thing, it starts at 11.

Man, Im gonna hate being a father lol

2010-10-15T05:12:00.003+08:00

I cant remember the last time I had a bath in a bath tub, so I was understandably excited when I got to simmer in my own filth, with my ipod beside me.

Europe is a really relaxed place. Everything goes so slowly in the suburbs. People move in slow motion, but thankfully the internet is reasonably hasty compared to that. The sun seems to be lazier too, sometimes he waits till 8 to wake up.

Somehow that bothers me. I just read about mental priming, where certain external influences tweaks the way you think. So I was thinking how being in an asian country has primed me such that I need to go go go instead of slow slow slow. I cant stand not doing anything I cant see as immediately productive. Sure, Ive gobbled down close to 4 books so far, but Im always so slow, it seems.

Hmm.

Ive seen artificial snow in malaysia. It was a distant memory, but somehow it triggers the mental imagery of ice kacang. Just 2 days ago I saw snow falling from the sky. I didnt know if they were snowflakes or just little balls of snow, though. They were rather ungraceful though. I always pictured them dancing on their way down, pirouetting right and left before whimsically choosing a place to land. Mine was like little pieces of a bird shit barrage. I thought they were pieces of dust at first, like how in the 7th month theyd burn shit and all that shit floats up to where you live.

France

2010-09-17T18:49:00.002+08:00

In a few hours time Im going to be flying off to france, and as usual theres this nagging feeling that Ive forgotten do do/bring something, even though Ive already double checked (and at the rate this is going, triple check) everything.

Shoes parents have been nothing but helpful and easy to work with, though I wish I could say the same for MY parents, who want me to stuff my luggage with, get this, instant fucking noodles to bring over to france.

I made a big fuss out of this, obviously, because theres seriously better things to bring along than instant noodles, but since theyre the ones paying for the trip, itd be in my best interests to please them. =D

2010-08-31T13:28:00.001+08:00

Haiku is not
for everyone cuz
sometimes you just fail so bad
look at me even
this kinda fails.

No more good ban mian

2010-08-24T22:07:00.002+08:00

Since the ban mian stall near my secondary school changed owners, theres just nowhere in the world with ban mian good enough for me.

Well, Im going to ord soon, and because I havent been able to pass my SOC because of a lack of will and an injured knee, the most Ill get out of my testimonial is a satisfactory.

Thats 3/5 just because of physical ineptitude. If only I had known this would happen, then I wouldnt have put in that much effort into my work. But then again, life is always like that, isnt it?

2010-08-14T00:13:00.001+08:00

When youre living off the misery of other people its a sign youre losing your humanity.

When Im hoping the US goes into a second recession so soon after the last... haha, well its money for me!

Who can argue with money?

Naruto!

2010-08-05T00:30:00.003+08:00

The latest episodes of naruto are getting exciting but Ive no more episodes left to watch!

So i asked my friend why cant the japanese draw more and make less porn, and he said to me "cuz porn can make $. make anime fuckers like you only download and watch, so never make any money".

To which I replied "but the porn I also download and watch what. Whats the difference?"

I win.

Hottest

2010-07-25T13:02:00.001+08:00

Ive always loved Mila, but this is just way too hot! I liked Jeanette Aw when I found out she WOW-ed, but her spoken english is kinda fail so =(

My Fellow Countrymen, You Suck

2010-07-18T17:13:00.003+08:00

As some of you know, Im doing the drive past mobile column for NDP as a driver. i recently saw some very repugnant singaporeans showing their ugly side. Let me endeavour to explain this to you.

me in another fail picture.

The entire mobile column of 200 vehicles and 700 people will drive past the padang. After that, they will split up into 3 different parts of singapore, Eunos, woodlands and one more I cant remember where.

Along the road at the side of the Esplanade Mall (which is near I think, marina square or something) is a site that is where my (the eunos people) will stop to allow the other two parts of the mobile column to pass at a road way way way in front.

Because the eunos group stretches for hundreds of meters, the entire road has to be blocked off and no traffic, vehicular or pedestrian is permitted to pass in any way. Marshals are set up to ensure that no moron does this.

However, because of this pedestrian traffic tends to gather near the traffic lights while they are waiting for us to pass and the wait for them can be about 15-20 mins. Some morons waiting at the side of the road started arguing with the marshallers over why they couldnt cross when all our vehicles were stationary.

What they dont seem to understand is that the marshallers are only fucking corporals, and the decision to let whoever pass is made by people far higher up then them. And these people were literally shouting at the poor guy, with a whole lotta self importance like, "omg ive been waiting for x minutes omg you cant make me wait like this omg omg ima pee my pants" kinda thing.

Seriously, if you were anybody important in life, we would have people rolling out red carpets along the fucking road for you, but because youre a POS loser who probably drives a scooter, you just have to wait! Its really that simple.

And that wasnt all. When the higher ups finally relented and let them pass, the loser threw up his hands in the air and shouted ,"Finally!".

OMG i swear if the machine gun beside me was loaded...

2010-07-02T21:21:00.001+08:00

The above is the main theme song for Command and Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight. Its awesome, even if youre not a fan of game soundtracks ^^

Inter(nal)view

2010-06-23T13:46:00.002+08:00

So I was selected to go for some dumb interview and represent the NSFs of the SAF and appear on TV and say how much I loved what I was doing, and how proud I was to be taking part in NDP, when I would much rather be sleeping up in my bunk.

Normally I think some people would jump at this chance, but fame at the cost of dignity does not appeal to me. I went and told the in-charge, a captain, that asking me to do this was jamming my moral frequency, so to speak.

As of now, Im no longer involved in that facade, but I was told I would be a backup should the need ever arise. Please god let it not be so!

Goh Keng Swee is obviously not the main focus of this picture can.

Misadventures Of Me

2010-06-12T21:06:00.002+08:00

I went to Dr Henrys for a gathering. His place is at the NYP apartments area. I left at 11, so all the gates were closed, and I honest to goodness couldnt remember how to get out. I swear that place feels more like its trying to keep people in rather then keep people out.

That was when I noticed one area where the shelter was much lower then the other areas (the entire area from NYP to YCK MRT is sheltered), and that the shelter led over the fence.

;)
;)
;)
;)
;)

yep thats right, I climbed on TOP of the fucking shelter, and duck-walked over the fence under the cover of darkness. Man, being in NS for too long really makes you fearless (as well as make you lose your mind).

Once I was over the fence, I ninja jumped down.... and sprained my wrist in the process. This was witnessed by a female student. She gave me a "OMG YOU MUST BE BATMAN" face, but I pretended not to notice because Batman is cool.

So anyways, that was prolly the most exciting event of the entire week. :)

2010-05-29T10:59:00.001+08:00

I miss the way you move my cheese.

Direction

2010-05-29T10:55:00.003+08:00

Yes! Now I have a direct bus right to changi airport at my doorstep.

The world prepares for my france trip muahaha.

Anyway, Im still waiting for the malay man who lives 4 doors away to die of lung cancer cuz he keeps peeing and smoking in the lift. Im also waiting for my sergeant major to die in a car accident, cuz he asked me to wear my number 1 to go do a parade while I had a 39°C fever.

Why have mercy on those who have none for you?

GKS

2010-05-24T20:36:00.002+08:00

Busy these few days with Goh Keng Swees funeral. Yes, i was part of it, and bloody CNA only took my back shot. That means that particular news segment was very badly filmed, because their main actor was not even in the scenes. Its like a porn movie filmed without seeing the main actress's face.

The drive past from parliament to the conference building was quite cool and weird all at the same time. There were people who probably didnt even know who died and were putting their hands together, and aunties who were saluting awkwardly as we drove past. I wanted to laugh, but then thought to myself," wow maybe itd be nice if I died and aunties would salute to me."

I mean, its not that I have an auntie-fetish. Its just kinda strange how a complete stranger could inspire such patriotism.

Very interesting.

Worst Weekend

2010-05-17T18:26:00.002+08:00

Ending is the worst weekend every of the year. It started with a 39°C fever, diarrhea, and a bunch of stupid medics. The medical center seriously has no prioritization going on. Some dumbfuck lance corporals who were laughing so happily were somehow more important then a bloody 3rd Sergeant who was about to pass out from a fever.

I was given an MC, but what good is an MC when youre too weak to go home?

And back home, oh god back home was the worst. I was like a bird back home. No not free like a bird. I shat like a bird and peed like a bird. Thats right, for some reason my dick wasnt working, and my shit and pee all came out through the same place. What fun!

And just like this, my entire weekend was spend shitting and sleeping. As far as Im concerned, if I didnt spend more then half of it killing shit on my computer or playing stocks, then Ive WASTED it.

GDI!

Butterfly

2010-05-04T01:11:00.001+08:00

Little tommy was a boy, a child of thirteen
When he saw a cocoon, as small as a bean.
Picking it up, he thought to himself,
"In my hands I hold, a small piece of magic.
For life is as such, so fragile and tragic."

On a shelf he placed it, and for hours he'd stare
With a deep rooted love, that none could compare.
All this while, he thought to himself,
"What a beauty she'll be, how graceful and strong"
But he'd never imagine, how things could go wrong.

The day finally came, when her birth was at hand
the cage would chip, it was going as planned,
yet something felt wrong, something he noticed.
"Her cage is too strong, she cant break out.
I need to help her, of that theres no doubt!"

Gently he'd peel, the confines of her prison
And she spread her wings, like Jesus arisen.
Triumphant, he cried out loud,
"Welcome, my break from my routine,
for too long Ive been like a machine."

Not hearing him, she staggered forward,
Legs unsteady, going onward.
Then she stopped, wings hanging by her side
and a chill filled him deep inside.

Swaying slightly, she collapsed suddenly
This queen, once so heavenly,
was now so still, so still.

I think, maybe, the day we realise that the precious things we thought would last forever wouldnt, because there IS no such thing as forever, no matter how hard you try to force it, thatd be the greatest let down of our lives.

Anticipation

2010-04-25T16:16:00.002+08:00

In anticipation of the future, my ord is one thing, but the best part is that I get what Ive wanted for so long: A getaway from singapore, and one into Europe, no less.

My mom just confirmed that Ill be joining them in france for 2 months, with a intermittent trip to england to visit her friends. Its seriously more then I could have ever dreamed of.

I think its time to get a digi-cam.

Why Does Mr Beans Grass Jelly Drink Taste So Heavenly?

2010-04-12T20:15:00.002+08:00

I am so disappointed with command and conquer 4 man. I mean, theres shit, and theres cnc4. Its actually hard to find something about the game that I actually like. Theres nothing original, and Kane's final goodbye was so bleah I kinda felt disgusted with myself for wasting so much time just to see how it ended.

And then theres Clash of the Titans, which is another shit movie. The acting was bad, the plot was rushed, and three words more: Deus ex machina. Like, so many of them.

Shit, I think I need to buy something branded to make my life more purposeful.

2010-04-05T20:53:00.000+08:00

It just hit me that I wasnt really sure about my journey to SIM. As in, it isnt SIM itself, but rather the 2nd diploma that I would have to take in order to get the degree I want. In terms of time, this really isnt a problem since in total itd only take about 2.5 - 3 years, roughly the same as any other degree.

Its just that, I want it to be perfect. I want everything to be perfect. But because I know how life sucks and nothing can be perfect, I want it to be as close to perfect as it can, and somehow, it doesnt feel there yet.

Readers Digest Is Stupid

2010-03-14T14:35:00.001+08:00

Readers digest keeps sending me their sweepstakes nonsense, and Ive been repeatedly sending them emails to stop flooding my snail-mail box. Today I just got so sick of it I sent them the following mail.

My name is Madam Lee Ngai Wah, and for the third fucking time, I would like you to stop sending me your sweepstakes bullshit. Dont ask for my IC number or anything as though you morons dont have it, because Ive given it to you twice already.

If I get another of your sweepstakes in my mail, I might have to succumb to my tendencies towards arson.

Yours sincerely,
Madam Lee Ngai Wah

Where the name in the mail is my mom :P hahahaah

NDP!

2010-03-13T22:59:00.002+08:00

The bad news begins with the fact that Ive been coerced into taking part in this years NDP. Im not actually going to be part of the parade itself, but Ill be driving my primus around some dumb neighbourhood, where hopefully I can conduct live experiments on "TANK VS TOYOTA".

Because Im going to be going around on public roads, I was required to take some Highway Code test, which is kinda the army equivalent of the Basic Theory Test (its not interchangable though).

My sergeant major, whos a complete numbskull, told me and my guys I was to go to Kaki Bukit camp for some lessons, after which we would take the test. Therefore, upon reaching there, I wasnt really surprised when the guy in charge told us there WOULDNT be any lessons or anything to study for before the test, which was essentially his way of saying ,"Tough luck, biatches."

I obviously began planning to retake the test, but boy what came out was a complete surprise.

In a class of 30++ (some of them were drivers by vocation, others were suay-bongs like me who were from armour doing the driving like me), only 3 people passed. And out of these 3 people all of them were on their 2nd attempt at the test.

I scored the WORST, with like 54/100. I dont think Ive ever been last in class before. But technically there wasnt any class to begin with. Its like, Ive never been last in class before! lol

That reminded me of the time I scored an 1/25 for some A-math test, but there was this dude with a 0. That was really a classic lol moment.

Elderly Couple Rocking At The Piano

2010-03-06T00:41:00.001+08:00

OMG OMG YOU HAVE TO CHECK THIS OUT

Description: An elderly couple walked into the lobby of the Mayo Clinic for a checkup and spotted a piano. They've been married for 62 years and he'll be 90 this year. Check out this impromptu performance. We are only as old as we feel, it's all attitude. Enjoy! They certainly do

Best performance of the year, nuff' said.

Format Females

2010-02-27T23:30:00.002+08:00

Today I was down at orchard road with a friend, and I noticed something truly harrowing. Everywhere I looked, there were pretty girls. No, thats not the scary part. The scary part was this: They all looked the same!

I dont mean like, 'clones' type of "same". Its just like, they way they dress, the way they put on their make up and just everything they do is so freakily similar.

Its like they all have this idea of what "pretty" is supposed to look like and everyone of them is just going for that look hoping that something good turns out of it.

Which philosopher was it that said that the universe is made up of ideas or templates that formed everything? I cant remember, but like, its pretty much whats happening here. In the end, I was supposed to be looking at them and fantasizing or something, but it got really depressing cuz it just felt I was looking at the same person over and over again.

;p

2010-02-27T16:35:00.000+08:00

My friends are sluts. Heres why.

Cockroach Noodles

2010-02-26T22:24:00.000+08:00

I think most of you would know of my experiences with this noodle shop in sunplaza that serves cockroaches. That was about 3 years ago, and Ive been boycotting it since.

Recently, however, I noticed a change in management, and things looked a lot cleaner then previously, so I started eating my ban mian again.

Today kinda sucked, cuz just as I was about to put a spoonful into my mouth, I noticed a brown leg inside my spoon. I really really wanted to take the half of the bowl that was left and smash it into the fucking aunties face.

Seriously, this shit can only happen to me.

Stranded

2010-02-23T17:52:00.004+08:00

I spent an entire afternoon today baking in the sun in the middle of some forest in Sungei Gedong together with a friend of mine without any water at all. We fed the mosquitoes and talked about women, or just womAn, actually, which is one of the things I really cherish about being single; You get to ask all about other peoples relationships and not have to give a single thing out about yourself because you simply dont have anything to say.

Why were we there in the first place? Well, I was driving my gun to an exercise location when it broke down. And when I say gun, Im not talking about those little peashooters you carry around with you, Im talking about these:

Yes, these five million dollar pieces of crap dont actually work. Theyre just there to give servicemen something to do while they waste two years of their life away. =)

So anyway when the technicians arrived they had a bottle of coolant, but we drank that anyway.

The First New Year

2010-02-15T23:00:00.002+08:00

For those of you who really know me, you know I dont go around wishing people Merry Xmas/New Year/Whatever, but I do make it a point to reply smses/texts with at least a "thanks, you too!" because I feel its the least you could do.

Till now, I actually havent wished anyone Happy CNY, because my new year began one month and 15 days ago, and I dont really see what the big deal is. But I did wish someone a happy CNY today, and it was this counter girl at KFC. She had a really gay-lord name: Girlie. No shit. And no, she wasnt really pretty, but she did look very sad. There was this kinda look in her eyes that told the world that nothing was really going right for her, so I thought itd be nice to acknowledge her existence.

She returned my greeting with a smile, and as I left, I noticed she was still smiling.

Yes, I know I have that effect on girls because Im hot, but in all seriousness, I think we dont do the little things often enough.

^-^

Happy Cheena New Year!

Cavana Sucks

2010-02-15T22:55:00.003+08:00

The very first time I ate at Cavana was when I was with this bunch of friends and I didnt order anything, so I was just picking at their food and I thought to myself ,"Oh god this sucks so badly." and vowed never ever to go back again.

Unfortunately, because its chinese new year and theres nothing to eat if no ones cooking, the situation changes to something somewhat more ... desperate.

I tried their new chicken lasagne, because Im a sucker for lasagne, and what a sucker I turned out to be. $8.90 for a pieces of HAM inside. They had the cheek to put fucking HAM inside lasagne, and even more to charge me an extra 50cents as a "chinese new year" charge.

Fuck you Cavana, Im boycotting you for life.

Stupid

2010-02-13T23:43:00.002+08:00

So i just finished watching my super ex girlfriend, and essentially wasted 2 hours of my life. I dont think ive ever seen a more pointless and predictable show. Its like, do you even need a script for that shit? And i sat through that. I sat through all hundred and twenty minutes of that shit. Well, I dunno if it was 2 hours exactly, but whatever.

Anyway, im mulling over how someone could have lived 20 fucking years on this stupid world and be so emotional. And by emotional I mean so controlled by his emotions.

Its so WEAK.

Pepperoni's

2010-01-30T00:27:00.002+08:00

Just came back from this place called Pepperoni's. Its near NJC or something. I went there with my men, or in non-army terms, my subordinates. Wah, one of them even dressed like Jason Mraz or something. Really up there.

But of course I see their other side in exchange for them seeing mine ;)

Other than that, the food is quite good when you do a price : quality ratio evaluation. Their panna cotta (I never knew it was called panna cotta until today) is really smooth and just sweet enough for me. Their lasagne kinda sucked I think. Pizza Huts' is better.

Kahfee

2010-01-24T19:06:00.001+08:00

One of the best times of the weekend is when I sit down in front of my computer with a cuppa Cafe Nova's latte.

But besides saying that coffee is great, Batman: Arkham Asylum is equally great. The hour I spent playing it today was well worth it.

Anyway I have to say this video is what Singaporeans would call "quite steam"

Weird People

2010-01-24T18:48:00.002+08:00

Whenever I need to rest my eyes after gaming for so long, I always look out the window. I like doing this because 1.) Theres always nice wind in my face, and 2.) Theres always weird people doing shit.

So this day, there was this fat old woman walking down the path. As she walked along, she made these gestures with her hands that looked like a mime pressing against the wall. Every few meters she walked, she would do it again and again.

There was nothing in her ear, or close to her ear, so she couldnt have been talking on the phone. Her mouth wasnt moving either.

Somehow, that made me think of this weird guy I met at a friend's birthday chalet. He was trying very hard to get us to play a few more games of saboteur (the card game) , but we were afraid of missing the last bus/train. So hard, in fact, that it came across to me as bordering psychotic.

I had this friend with me (whom we shall codename 'dear') that I was going to send back home cuz it was already getting late. Weirdo asked if I would consider a few more games and I replied," That depends on whether dear wants to leave now."

Then he gave me this stunned look and asked," You mean you would make your choice based on one person?" I didnt answer him and quickly looked away. In my heart I was thinking "omg omg omg freakyyyyy".

The poor fellow probably never had a girlfriend or close friend his entire life or something. Well, it may have been freaky then, but its funny retrospectively.

Utopia

SAF Is A Damn Happening Organisation

2010-01-10T20:55:00.001+08:00

Wah, I love the SAF. Everytime in the newspaper. Just recently got kerner or what making sexual advances towards his married subordinate officer. Why I also cannot understand, cuz usually SAF woman damn shit looking one.

Then also got master sargeant go taiwan get run over by car and die. Then the newspaper also say he drunk. Wah, also got unit change their Standard obstacle course results so they can get best unit in the end kena found out. This one also in newspaper.

Then got people run halfway die. Do chin ups halfway also can die.

Maybe I typing this post halfway also collapse and die. Then the headlines will write "SAF serviceman dies naked in front of computer whilst declaring how much he loves the SAF"

You will seriously never see this anywhere else in the world man. You where will find "Microsoft employee dies while programming new software" or what one?

Call Of Pussy

2010-01-09T22:13:00.002+08:00

Recently Ive been playing a lot of COD:MW2. Thats pretty much all I do, aside from thinking about how to recoup my $1600USD loss on the stock market as well.

Pretty much the most exciting thing thats happen today was talking to *. I was wondering what I would have for dinner when * messaged me, and I told her that since I couldnt decide what to eat, I might as well have her pussy for dinner. I tried to negotiate a price of $2 for it, because she suggested I get macdelivery but I wasnt willing to pay the delivery charge, so instead of paying a mutt to come over to my place I might as well have pussy.

Unfortunately, $2 wasnt enough. I backed out anyway, because even having eaten pussy, I would STILL have been hungry, because as we all know, you cant literally eat pussy. Maybe in germany they do, because they eat cock there.

Sucky Peppermint

2010-01-03T16:07:00.002+08:00

Please please please dont try starbucks' peppermint frap/mocha unless you wanna drink chinese medicine. Thank God I wasnt the one who bought it, haha!

And omg what a brand-whore Ive turned into. I cant believe I spent a three digit sum on a shirt. I think its more like a few cents for the material and the three digits for a crocodile.

Next Ill probably buy a belt with a "G" on it, which will probably cost another fortune. "G" must stand for "goondu".

The Men of Steel

2009-12-25T03:37:00.003+08:00

So Im sitting here listening to the Oceans Twelve soundtrack and wondering how the hell am I going to get past this part of NS.

Ive gotten my new batch of men under me, and theyre so disciplined it sets standards so high for me. Its like I have to keep on my toes 24/7. I hardly slept more then 6 hours a day this past week, thank god for christmas.

Oh and anyway, merry christmas dudes and dudettes, guys and gals.

Mr Jie

2009-12-16T22:06:00.001+08:00

Haha, I love it when americans think my last name is Jie, since their last name is really at the last part of the name.

Hello Mr Jie, she said. lol

I cant even begin to tell you how hooked i am on Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. So much to do, so much to unlock!

So much has been happening recently. I think Ive decided that Im gonna study at MDIS, which, purportedly, Ris Low studies at. Maybe I can make friends with her so she can make me laugh everyday with her finglish(fucked-up english)! What a joy ride that would be!

See, youre not the only person who can coin retarded words!

Strength

2009-11-16T20:49:00.002+08:00

Today was a tough day. Waking up, I felt a abysmal sense of loss, of the seemingly never-ending maze that is NS. We all have these moments, when our emotions just take a nose-dive one day and we feel that everything we do in life is like a 2.4km run that adds 2.4km to the distance every time you thought youve reached the end.

Ive always known, and am glad for the people that I surround myself with. Sometimes when we run out of colour, they always seem to paint the picture of life just fine being as they are. With the exception of the incredibly retarded and useless Mr Lam that Ive mentioned before, the people I bunk with are really not that bad.

Come to think of it, when the new men come in, how are we going to explain to them that third sergeant lam yi rui is useless and cant do anything right?

2009-11-11T22:04:00.003+08:00

I can still remember on my 20th birthday I was outfield digging my shellscrape and it was around 12 oclock. This friend of mine walked up to me and said happy birthday, and gave me my only present of my 20th birthday, which was a packet of milo. That packet of milo was the best packet of milo I had ever tasted.

This time, on my 21st, what I had was quite a bit of pain. The kind of pain youve been running away from but now you have to face. Quite the event huh.

2009-11-08T00:20:00.002+08:00

Got a nice model of an audi R8 for myself and had myself a nice lunch with the Dear. I must must must recommend P.S. Cafe's "PS Burger Club", which is like a sandwich with wagyu beef, cheddar cheese in between bread that tastes and feels like pizza.

I Fucked My First Man!

2009-11-06T18:33:00.002+08:00

Well, for starters lets explain how in the army, when you say youve been fucked or that you were fucking someone usually its synonymous with "scold", or "reprimand", so Im definitely still 100% virgin oil, and lets further define "man" as someone of the rank Corporal and below, so Im definitely not a fag.

Ive been a third sergeant for like a few months now, and I havent exactly scolded anyone or came even close to raising my voice at anyone in a manner where I pulled my rank. This because it just isnt my nature to, and because its so much more fun manipulating and machinating their actions and watching them scurrying to do what you want enthusiastically, instead of controlling them through fear alone. Sure, its takes a bit more effort, but much more satisfying.

Youve Failed To Beef It Up

2009-11-01T19:11:00.003+08:00

So the auntie at my fav beef store in sun plaza is closing shop. Where else am I going to get huge chunks of beef, rice, veggies and soup for fricking 4.50?

And there goes my regular status haha. I could go stand in the queue and not order anything, and the auntie would know which one I want, cuz I always order "liu hao", or "number six".

I didnt say goodbye. I hate goodbyes even more then I hate hellos.

Burden Unloaded

2009-11-01T04:18:00.002+08:00

Some of you may know that I am an archer. Or at least was one. I stopped shooting in the late poly days.

My bow set has since been languishing in the corner of my room. Ive been thinking for a long long time that I should be selling it, or at the very least, give it away. So I left a note on NYP's archery clubs' blog's chat box that I was giving away a free bow and sure enough, someone approached me.

I met him and passed it to him. He mentioned how sweet it was (which I felt was a teeny weeny bit homosexual for a guy to say that) and that he was just wondering how he was going to get the money for the bow.

For one thing, Im glad to be rid of the bow, but for another, I think, its a reminder how we should keep giving. Be it a $200 bow set or a bunch of unused clothes.

Maybe it feels a bit weird that someone like me should preach about something like that, but it only adds an element of hypocrisy, at the very most; it doesnt make what we should be doing any different.

Like, Finally.

2009-10-24T12:38:00.001+08:00

After 3 or 4 years of unwavering service, my Diamondback mouse is finally dying. I was sorta beginning to think that this mouse would last me my entire lifetime, which I wouldnt mine cuz it is such a joy to use it.

Razer products really set the standard for gaming peripherals huh.

Bloody CEPAS Shit

2009-10-16T16:32:00.001+08:00

If I lost ten thousand brain cells everytime I had to remind myself that I have an extra $3 in my ezlink card, in a few millenia or so I should be able to sue the fuckers for the complete theoretical loss of an organ equivalent to the mass of one brain.

2009-10-12T17:54:00.002+08:00

For the whole month of september, I saved 10 dollars. :(

Anyway, I just found out that the artist who did my tattoo for me passed away in a motor accident 11 days after I did my tattoo.

Such a strange coincidence that my tattoo reads "How will you be remembered?" and that my birthday is on the 11th day of the 11th month of the year.

So like what, I jinxed him? Haha! But in all seriousness, brian gave me such a good impression in the short time I knew him. So pleasant and soft spoken... hmm.

The Most Repugnant Little Shit Ever

2009-10-11T01:58:00.003+08:00

There is this guy I know, who is the most useless, STD-ridden fleabag Ive ever seen in my life. But knowing life somewhere down the road there'll be someone even worse.

I want all of you to know Lam Yi Rui. Thats his name, and my Disgust for him is so great that it warrants a capital D, as well as the fact that I bother making a post just for him.

Do any of you know someone who goes to shit without toilet paper, then going to bathe immediately after to wash the shit away? I can just imagine the shit trickling down his legs.

Oh not forgetting he has STDs. Hes got these little red spots that form nice little colonies around his hips. Quite a convenient place to have them, if you ask me. So like, youre too poor to buy toilet paper but you have money to buy cigarettes and prostitues. Okay....

So then how about a 21 year old male who acts like a bloody kid and acts cute like a girl? Im not even going to go into that.

Sometimes in life, there are people whom you look at and think to yourself if he/she dropped dead in front of you, whether youd even bat an eyelid.

I wouldnt, for this pig.

Dont really mind if he reads this too, cuz goddamn, its time to change or die. Hopefully the latter.

Good Will Hunting

2009-10-04T02:36:00.002+08:00

has to be the best movie ive watched this year. Yes, I know it was 1997 that it was made, but goodness, what have I been missing out?

Anyways, I think I yawned a bit too hard and sprained my jaw and now it hurts to eat. Wtf right?

Inked!

2009-09-28T21:43:00.003+08:00

Ive gotten my first tattoo! I was always the willing canvas without the picture, and now finally the piece is done! Its a small one to get the ball rolling (cuz they say getting tattoos are addictive) and thank God it was a small one cuz I was already crying like a bitch omg.

Its like a getting an injection without anesthesia, and once the needle is in the artist sorta drags it along the length of your skin. I can swear to you, I could feel him tracing the length of every fucking alphabet across my skin. It took maybe 20 minutes tops, but by god it was like 2 hours!

SURPRISINGLY, surprisingly the colouring wasnt as painful as the outline of the word cuz I believe my nerves were already dead.

"How will you be remembered?" is basically a question which sums up everything you have achieved in your life, everything you have done for everyone else and everything you have done for yourself, because these are the things that people remember you by.

The best thing is that since its not a statement, it doesnt have to be something I feel at any point of time in life. I just have to change the answer to the question and let it remind me of what Im here for everytime I look at it.

Hot Water

2009-09-19T21:34:00.002+08:00

I like how when you feel so shitty and feverish, and you stand in front of the shower and the lukewarm water caresses your skin and it feels like it wants to devour you.

Never does your skin tingle with such excitement and your heartbeat quickens as during sex.

So awesome!

2009-09-19T20:34:00.000+08:00

Thought that I could spend the weekend fruitfully buried in some book, but fucking hell, sick again.

Lawrys Prime(?) Rib

2009-09-13T20:57:00.002+08:00

So I went to Paragons Lawrys with salted fish for dinner for an early bday treat. Must say, its nice being treated like a king, and damn I could get used to it ;)

The waitresses/waiters introduce the dishes to you before they serve it, and they serve it just beside your table. There was this spinning salad bowl or something, where they put a bowl on ice and spin it around while dripping dressing into it at the same time and it all mixes very well but dont ask me whats the difference between this and tossing the salad!

The service is really top notch, but it can get quite irritating cuz when youre trying to have a private convo with your friend and they keep coming and coming to do this and that and this and that lol!

The steak, mmm yes the steak is quite good. I had the standard prime cut medium well (or was it medium rare?) and I certainly didnt expect the entire slab to be like bloody. The medium well Im used to is the jacks place type; Crispy on the outside and soft and red on the inside. I guess that means I have to fine dine more!

Salted fish had her set dinner, with some cut (cant remember what) which was just like that, crispy and soft.

We took pictures, but they turned out lousy cuz it was kinda dark and I looked sunburnt :(

Over!

2009-09-07T22:15:00.000+08:00

Finally the bloody Army Open House is like, OVER. I am soooo sick of carrying bloody kids up into the gun and onto the commanders seat (which is like, pretty high up if youre only three quarts of a meter tall).

Then there were the bloody chinese nationals asking their bloody chinese questions in frigging chinese god fucking chinese. How the hell am I supposed to know how to explain the ammo loading and/or firing mechanisms in bloody chinese?

I told them we put zha dan into the barrel, but my friend later told me its zi dan instead. So basically Ive been telling them I put bombs into the barrel instead of bullets, but who the fuck cares? I mean, the idea of explosions are quite universal right? hahah! As long as you get that when I fire the bloody gun someone dies, it doesnt matter what I put inside, does it?

LOL!

And since Im on the subject of language, Id just like to say that omg, I cant stand the dumbfuck CEOs on the news who must be like, millionaires but cant speak english for nuts.

I mean, if you take the effort to dress smart and look smart, you might as well sound smart as well.

Its like, if you hear a china-man whos an ASTAR scholar speaking broken english compared to an average person who can speak decently, youd think that the china man was a dumbass wouldnt you?

I mean, of course your opinion would also be slightly swayed simply by the fact that hes a china-man, but you get what I mean right?

Koreans!

2009-09-03T05:09:00.001+08:00

Haha this is so funny! Some dumb american must have made this and its all totally incorrect but still so stupid and so funny!

HOW DARE THEY!!

2009-09-01T18:09:00.001+08:00

How dare Nutrisoy offer all these reduced sugar crap drinks (and Kickapoo too) and force us to drink it! Okay well theyre not really forcing like coercing force, but its the only bloody version out there.

What makes them think they know my nutrition better then I do? I dont pay the same price for you to put less sugar inside you fucktards I want my sugar back! Your drinks taste like cum from someone with STDs (which probably taste just like the original variety, only with STDs)!

So infuriated omg might as well be drinking bloody tap water.

Thank You : Ben Wong ( grimidea@hotmail.com )
Attention: Events & Operations
Message:
Hello, I am a long time customer of Rapture, as I have been gaming for a large part of my life and have taken part in various competitions organised by RG, which, I might add, were all impeccably organised and I have always admired the direction that RG has brought the gaming scene of singapore to, and I have to say you all were always the spearhead of making cybersports where it is in SG now.

However, RG recently organised a VBS2 competion for army peeps, where an incident happened which may, I fear, have irrepairably damaged my image of RG.

During a match with the units 21SA playing against 39SCE, I was using my own Razor Diamondback mouse, instead of the default one provided at Gamehaven. I had permission from my lieutenant, who had in turn gotten permission from a higher authority to do this. During the games we had several incidences of disconnections and/or server crashes. I was later made to understand, in a very impolite manner, that the usage of my mouse was what had caused these disconnections, and was threatened with disqualification should I ever repeat what I thought I had gotten permission for. Not wanting to cause any trouble, I accepted the marshal's point of view on the matter, although I must admit Im quite confused as to how my mouse could have caused the crashes.

I have since brought the matter up with my officer, and it has been resolved amiably, ending with me simply having to accept that I can no longer use my mouse. This is understandable, since rules are rules, but the reason why I write this is not to pursue the matter but to prevent further reoccurrences of such situations where the customer may feel a irrevocable loss of respect for such a great organisation.

I thank you for your time.
Ben ;p

In case you were wondering, when he saw me removing my mouse, he said," NO WONDER LA!" with referrence to the disconnections. This was followed by," If you ever use your mouse again, Im going to dee que you."

Wow, see the marshal is so cool. He cant even say "disqualify". Hes gotta say "DEE QUE". Lets tango, bitch.

Army Open House

2009-08-17T20:02:00.002+08:00

This past week was like a dream. I took leave, off, leave, off and I was almost not in camp the entire week.

Now I come back and find out Im doing the static displays for my Primus in the Army Open House. So please tell your friends to tell their friends to tell their friends NOT TO COME so that I can have an easier time. Tell them theres a ugly jackoff whos doing the displays (which there is, and no fuck off Im not referring to myself) to scare them all away.

;)

J.P Has A Car!

2009-08-15T22:40:00.003+08:00

JP isnt Japanese Porn, its Jasmine Phang! And yes shes got a car (even if it belongs to her father)!

She was sweet enough to offer to drive us all to fuckn pasir ris for tyrones bday, but what really struck me was how she replied when we were driving along the highway, and ch was goading her along the path to speeding.

Of course, Im partial to a bit of cheap thrills now and then, but what she said in reply is something I really liked. She said "I never speed when Im driving with friends one."

If there was a Best Statement Of Responsibility Of The Month Award, this would be it.

MENSA Is Full Of Shit

2009-08-13T17:48:00.003+08:00

Can you believe you have to PAY to enter mensa? No its not enough I owned their simple sample test (which I think, if you cant get full marks you shouldnt even bother trying), I have to GO DOWN PHYSICALLY to do their test.

So essentially, you pay around 50 bucks for a years membership to do.... what? Go volunteer to do sai-kang, play chess with fellow nerds and bullshit like that? That isnt even worth like $10 to join.

Come on you should be begging me to join! LOL

Nice ego-stroking post ;p

Ive got my first pair of noise reduction earphones! Im glad I now have an even better excuse not to hear people since (especially on public transport) they can get especially annoying. Unfortunately I wouldnt be able to hear if someone was trying to save me from getting run over by a bus, either.

I Wanna Demote

2009-08-06T19:29:00.002+08:00

Because being a man is much easier then being a spec.

Because I am gun IC and Im in charge of 18 x 5 million $ worth of artillery pieces and theres no one to do it with me. And everyday theres people calling me to ask me about where the gun keys are, which gun belongs to which battery and all that fuck shit.

Because when I do guard duty I only have to do 12 hour shifts instead of 24 hour shifts, and I get to sleep 8 out of that 12 hours.

Because I dont have to do Company Orderly Sargeant duties.

Because I dont have to use my brain, I only have to do what Im told, and if anything cocks up, I just point at my sargeant and say ,"Not my fault, he ask me do one."

Because I had misguided perception of commanders when I was a recruit.

Because Im just Really Not Happy.

iTunes Virus ALERT!!

2009-07-25T15:03:00.002+08:00

Well, the only thing you need to be alerted of is if you have been using the free version of AVG like I have. AVG mistakenly detects iTunes as a viral infection, so if you do get a warning, dont heal or quarantine anything, because theres no problem. Doing so will cause iTunes to be unable to work

Dont be stupid like me and delete iTunes.

Swimming On Land

2009-07-24T12:57:00.002+08:00

Ok for some of you who still dont know, my parents have both left for france, so its up to my brother to do the washing of the clothes since hes around most of the time.

But bloody hell, I realised that, when I opened my cupboard today, I had no more fucking underwear left. Where did all my underwear go? Has someone stolen them to smell them?

So anyway, in my desperation, Im currently wearing swimming trunks as a substitute until I find out what happened to the rest of my underwear.

Presidential Asshole

2009-07-13T17:14:00.003+08:00

So we were jogging along east coast park when I saw our president. Nathan was wearing a cap and he had only 1 bodyguard with him. I guess that just shows how important he is! haha.

Anyway, I saw him from afar and thought, omg I should greet him or something otherwise CO(commanding officer) will complain again. But I was too far to greet him, and I couldnt like, shout cuz if not it would be like hes my friend or something. So I closed the distance and we made eye contact.

Then just as I got close enough to greet him, he turned away and I was like, shit too late. But I said "Good afternoon, sir" anyway, but he just completely ignored me.

So as I jogged away I thought to myself, Im 21 this year, and Im so gonna vote for workers party so that at the end of the day all youll be is a old senile dotard that no one gives a shit about.

2009-07-10T22:52:00.000+08:00

And its like every bloody radio station is playing the paedophiles songs. I mean, hes dead, yeah, but its not like his music is going to disappear overnight or something.

NDP!

2009-07-05T17:55:00.006+08:00

I went to watch one of the rehearsals for NDP 2009, and I was quite impressed. Well, at least for 2 or 3 out of the 10 sections of the entire parade. The military police doing their gun throwing nonsense was sweet. Reminds me of the start of "a few good men". The clubmixes in NDP were quite a welcome change, if you ask me. I especially find it quite surprising they even threw in a mix from Disturbed's Voices. Who would think a metal band would have anything to do with singapores birthday?

Our apaches were also very very pretty up close. I think Ive made it one of my life goals to pilot one ^^. Strange how being military makes you appreciate the military aspects of the parade more...

Unfortunately they also had their cultural traditional shit, which was indeed shit. Im not interested in the st00pid malay shitlats or the dumb chinese prancing around in their cheongsams. And please dont get started on the "but youre chinese too" bullshit.

If you havent gone gold on a cinema before, please do. You dont know what youre missing out! Theres the reclining chair coupled with the leg rest, the service like youre in business class, and frigging BLANKETS just in case youre cold. So be sure to watch action packed movies or the danger of falling asleep is very real!

Not to mention only about 20 people sharing the whole cinema, so even if the people near you talked or made a lot of annoying noises like theyve never seen special effects before, theyre at least a good 2 meters away!

Owned

2009-06-21T20:46:00.002+08:00

I went to the games arcade for the first time in years, and I played puzzle fighter with this chick and I got owned. The final score was 2-1 but gdi, it should have been in my favour.

Playing with a joystick is much much harder then with a keyboard, I can guarantee you that. I dont know if my controller was spoilt, but apparently --> + \|/ movement does not equal --> . \|/.

What that means is that, a connected movement like left arrow sliding down to down arrow does not register as two separate movements.

I forgot that ken shouldnt be jabbing, and I forgot morrigans counter colour tiles. Bloody hell she memorised my counter tiles cuz her red was forming there from the beginning. And all I was doing was sucking her titties and getting ass raped ugh.

Mind Quiz!!

2009-06-14T01:58:00.001+08:00

wah i was playing my mind quiz game on my psp and i realised how much ns has fucked my brain. i totally forgot my multiplication tables (8x6= 64, 9x7=49 lol) and when I did a brain age test Im actually 50 years old! hahaha omg i love that game!

Anyway that camera shop at sembawang mrt just cheated me of 10 bucks. Well, technically I went and got cheated, so it really isnt their fault. I paid 10 bucks for a mini disc with the picture inside, as well as 7 passport sized photos.

Quite a good deal right? Except for the fact that I dont need 7 photos or that fucking disc. Id have happily paid 4 bucks for 4 photos like they used to do. So well yeah, I got my ass cheated. Go ahead and laugh, I hope it makes your miserable day a little better.

I Make A Good Gigolo

2009-06-06T00:40:00.003+08:00

Today was officially the day I joined the 21st Singapore Artillery, my unit. Very unfortunately, they had another initiation ceremony for new specialists :( This one was for joining alpha battery.

(21SA, a battalion, is split into three batteries, alpha, bravo and charlie. The beer episode was for joining 21SA. This tale Im about to tell is about joining alpha.)

The lao jiao specs took us on a tour of the camp after the battery commanders warm welcome of a pizza hut/KFC treat. I wasnt suspicious then; I just wondered why we were doing that since they knew that as trainees, we had ALREADY spent 3 months in kranji camp. Then they took us to a training shed under the pretence of wanting to talk to us.

There was a 2nd lieutenant there. He got us to sit down and asked the senior specs to stand behind us, and once we were all comfortable, he did something that puzzled me.

He turned around and shouted, "MOVE TO FIRING POINT NOW!" I was kinda stunned until I heard voices shouting and people running towards us with water bags, shaving cream and god knows what else.

I thought "fuck" and got up to run. Im rather proud of the fact that I was the first person in my group of 7 newcomers to actually realise what was coming and REACT. It didnt really matter though, cuz the specs were standing behind us, sandwiching us and the mob.

They pinned me down and the only thought that went through my mind at that time, was that I had already put on my night time Vichy/LaRoche routine of toner/moisturiser/vitamin c, and that if I got shit like kiwi on my face, I would get REALLY REALLY pissed.

Well, being a good sport, I had to pretend to laugh and struggle a little bit as I was doused with cold water, scrubbed with kiwi, drawn with markers and some fucker was happily spraying shaving cream INTO my mouth. Me pretending to do that is like a whore pretending your small dick gives them pleasure.

That was when I felt like a prostitute LOL!

So anyways the men started turning on themselves cuz 3 of them were going to ORD, and I guess they had a party for the ORD peeps just before they left for civilian life. After they got raped, our battery comm really did come down and check if we were okay.

At the end I had to re-bathe and fucking put on all my vichy AGAIN. ANNOYING!

Puke Streak

2009-05-30T00:40:00.003+08:00

I do solemly and sincerely sweat that no alcohol shall ever touch these lips of mine ever again. IN MY LIFE!

My new captain coerced me to chug down a mug of beer in 20 fucking seconds, and my tolerance for alcohol is like, zilch. Well, it wasnt really coercion, it was just part of some stupid hi-welcome-to-my-lame-unit ceremony that apparently everyone has to go through.

Anyway, I was stoned to hell and knocked out on the mess room floor a few minutes after the drink, then had a merlion when my guys woke me up to go back to the bunk. I slept fitfully till 1am, where I woke and had another merlion, tried to go back to sleep and had my final merlion of the day. Thats three times folks!

I cant ever forget the puke gushing out from my nostrils, and my watering eyes, god it felt like I was gonna regurgitate my eyeballs as well. Never again shall I feel that, for I shall forever live in mortal fear of alcohol. I seriously cant remember the last time I puked....maybe 4 years ago?

Streak broken :(

I like how the men of Singapore like to size you up by looking at your shoulders when youre in uniform. Whos-rank-is-bigger is the name of the game. I also like to see the "humph" look on their face when they see a third sergeant instead of just any Man.

its cool how you can sorta tell a Singaporean from a foreigner by the way they do that. A trained nsman does that to know who and how to greet a superior. The angmohs just stare at the uniform.

Green Is The Colour Of The Day

I was the mrt on the way home when I saw, hiding behind someone, HER.

She had beautiful eyes that drooped ever so slightly, the way someone does when, because of her extreme intellect, is weary of the ennui of the world. Her arms were folded across her chest, like she couldnt give a damn about all the infidels that surrounded Her Royal Highness. Her glossy lips were pursed, like your existence is an annoyance to her.

So.
Turned.
On.

I LIKE!

Bye, queen in green (rhymes)! Ill always remember (always remember for 2 weeks or so) how you brightened up my day!

The Different Faces

Sometime toward the end of every course I tend to get a little sick of everyone. Whether its small ones like jls incessant need to drive away his insecurities about being the only nitec here, or the more huge ones like kennys existence, it all just starts to weigh down.

Maybe its because people think that this will be the last I see of him/her anyway, and therefore it makes it okay to treasure them a little less. True colours start to show, and I start to think that maybe its nice to keep knowing new people, so that at least, they all bother to pretend to be nice.

Hmm. But still, its only pretending.

Gripped

Ive been gripped by this unquenchable urge to play Kingdom Hearts 2. A very unfortunate urge, seeing as to how I no longer own a PS2.

Q: What happens when a 30 ton tank reverses all of a sudden in a convoy and hits the land rover behind it?
A: It smashes the front of the land rover and drags it along all the way until it stops. If it drags long enough, it hits the second land rover behind the first.

Q: What do you do hear if youre inside a 30 ton armoured vehicle and you ram into a land rover while reversing?
A: You hear a small "thud".

Q: What do you do when you open the rear door of the armoured vehicle and you see headlights staring back at you?
A: You ask yourself if youre in a dream, and when you realize that youre not, you start to pray really hard.

Fucking Spiders

2009-04-29T23:49:00.002+08:00

No, this post is not about the lame fighting spiders epic fail drama that channel 5 recently released. Its about walking headlong into thin lines that seem like spider webs. I dont really know what they are, and everyone says they are spider webs. We've all walked into them before, so you know what Im talking about.

The question is, why is it that we always walk into ONE strand of web, that is, if it really IS a web? Why is it that we never ever see it before it ends up on our faces (unobservant?)? And what kind of spider would seriously be fucking stupid enough to string/spin a web across a bloody CORRIDOR for goodness sake. And Im pretty sure the places that I always get caught in have people walking past often enough not to let webs collect. Maybe spiders are really quick web makers. I think they are; saw it in a documentary somewhere.

Oh well spiders wernt the smartest insects to begin with. Spin a web and wait. Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaazy. This is all, of course, assuming they arnt cum strands or anything, but in fact are spider web lines.

Let Down

You know, itd save me a lot of trouble if you just told me straight in the face that you didnt want to help me. Im fine with it "bro", I really am.

That way, I can stop wasting my time waiting for an answer that I kinda already know, as well as stop wasting my time on you like, for any other time after.

Seriously tho, whats so hard about me taking a look at some bloody course notes?

Man Down

2009-04-12T20:47:00.002+08:00

Down with some shit sickness again. Its like my body is protesting the return to camp or something. Or maybe its because I ate that mouldy bread yesterday. But I was already feeling shitty before the bread. Maybe it just exacerbated my condition.

So anyway I just turn on my TV for the first time in ages and I saw this kid on some dumb chinese singing competition for people not cut out for fame. God, he literally was a kid. Not the "young goat" kid, but erm, what was that word vladimir used? Lolita! hahaha

And the first thing that went through my mind was "theres no way Id ever vote for that kid". Cuz I think that for them, its always too much fame too quick. Then their lives usually fuck up beyond that point. IIRC ms Lohan was a pretty decent example. But who knows, maybe hes like those 6 year old piano prodigies that usually end up being philantrophists. Their grasp of reality is rock solid man. Well I guess thats why you call them prodigies.

And the second thing that I thought about all the final err 12(?) contestants was that they all looked the same! I mean, not twins same but like, fashion same. They all had the same haircuts, same style and felt like their hairdresser pretty much ran outta ideas.

All the guys wanna keep da long hair man, yeah, cuz its in da hood yoyoyo! Thats what Im talkin bout yo? You know what Im talkin bout? Yeah sup sup sup DAWG YO! hahahaha

Dunno whats got into me. Sickness fucks the brain.
