Hiding In My Shell

Wow. Last minute sent to replace my friend for duty today. Totally unprepared. So I slept the whole day! Really miss WGM, even though I've watched finish all the episodes I got. The petite couple are just so interesting that I want to watch it all over again and again... So envious!

Man... They are going to hang out this Friday at Esplanade and asked me to join them. But I don't even know them so it's so weird (for me at least). I'm not exactly very social. Takes me a lot of mental strength just to strike a conversation. Reminds me of that beer girl... Anyway... Should I go? Or not? Be a man? Or hide in my shell?

Till now... I still wonder what happened. It was going so well between us, and I thought I stood a chance. But something went wrong, and I still haven't figure out what exactly. I wonder if it's because of the couple seat... Which was because I mistook what you said and probably the reason why I screwed up... You're "the one that got away"...





Me and you,
You and me.
Let's go back
To 1983.

~ Neon Trees - 1983

Vroom!

Back from duty! And driving was not as frightening as I thought. I expected to be so jumpy that I'd crash into a tree. But it was fun! And quite easy too. Just need to try out parallel parking and the harder stuff. If you ask me to drive you somewhere, it should be no problem! Drove round and round and round! Even at night, plus there were to street lamps so had to rely on my headlights!

Duty is fun when you have the right company!

And jamming was AWESOME. I think you did not hear me. I said it was AWESOME. The studio is much bigger and... it felt good to be spacious XD We recorded some songs, but the camera kept shaking whenever I hit D note. Sorry! But there was no other place to put the camera! And we were so thirsty after practice we were so glad to find 7-eleven! But that place was ridiculously expensive! So we decided to check out further down if there was a cheaper 7-eleven. And then I saw this store (pic below) which I mistook for 7-eleven from far!

Shall videos upload later! But I played to hard that the skin on my finger tore, so I've to practise with a pick now I guess :/

It's getting hectic everywhere that I go
They wont leave me alone
There's things they all wanna know


~ Good Charlotte - I Just Wanna Live

Sick Me

Sick, so I went to see doctor. Means I skipped NDP. Means I can go jamming tonight!

Those who have duty on Saturdays are lucky. At least their Sundays are free :/

I'm A Pigeon

I read from some book, which I would never recommend to anyone because it was a damn screwed up book, that a pigeon can f*** 40 times a day. Well, I feel like a pigeon. This morning I got f***ed by everyone for everything. Here's an example. I told this major I cleaned the toilet. He checked it and asked me to clean again because it still had a smell. Wth? So I just spammed a bottle of air freshener in the toilet. Ridiculous...

Maybe I should find a band that does K Pop! C.N.Blue is just awesome!!!

This is really becoming something I hate...


I don't mean to run,
But everytime you come around,
I feel more alive, than ever.

~ Paramore - Adore

K-Fever!

Oh man I waa watching this show We Got Married, and it coupled a gal from SNSD and the lead vocal of C.N.Blue. And I heard C.N.Blue's Alone and I love it instantly! Also, he can sing english songs well too! Seriously an inspiring idol! And Ga-In from Brown Eyed Girls look so good! Doing K pop sounds tempting... And that show is addictive! Really sweet to see those on-screen couples!

Forgot to bring my iPod charger and Vodafone charger, so I got to use them wisely for duty.





Life.
Keep moving on.

I Hate It When They Play With Time

If I could find you now,
Things would get better.
We could leave this town,
And run forever.


~ Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue

Went gym in the morning with Kenny, and he drove me to Tampines Mall. Thanks for the ride! Really convenient to have a car. But the price of cars in Singapore... damn turn off. Saw this shop at Tampines Mall which I simply must visit when I get next month's pay!

I watched Prince Of Persia, and it was okay because I do not think it portrayed the game as a movie too well. Or maybe I found the story weak. Anyway, when all the people around the main guy was dying, I should have seen it coming: In the end, time turns back to the start of the movie. Sounds familiar? Think Next. God I hated that movie (Next). At the end of the movie, where Nicholas Cage woke up beside that woman he just screwed, I was "WTF!!!" I still hate that movie. But I do not hate Prince Of Persia, because at least it had action.

Also on the lift from ground floor which I was taking to the 4th floor of Tampines Mall to go to the cinema, I see the people going to the 2nd and 3rd floor. Is going up the escalators that troublesome that you have to shove your lazy asses into the lift? I saw this parent with a pram waiting for a lift on 2nd floor, but due to those lazy asses there was no room. And I, going 4th floor, felt kind of bad for the parent. Seriously, Singaporeans, be less selfish.

Sims 3 can miraculously work on my new computer! And I'm completing Batman: Arkham Asylum already! There's still those cool challenges though.


Life on TV
It's random, it means nothing to me

Batman: Arkham Asylum

Well, I was so exhausted today that I did not go jamming. Sorry guys. But I was going to have dinner with my family, and I already figured out most of the songs we were planning to figure out today. Decided to figure out other songs. Plus, last night I only slept for 3-4 hours >.<

Batman : Arkham Asylum is amazing! The game really throws you into the world of Batman. You get to use his gadgets, do detective work, thrash hordes of enemies with easy controls, and the best of all: taking down the enemies one at a time from the shadows. That is probably the best thing. As you neutralise them one at a time, the thugs get nervous. Once, one of the thug just fired at some empty space out of fear. They may huddle together when they feel threatened. And the graphics are rather good, along with the solid storyline and how the game portrays the characters. And the game is dark, despite using the voice actors from Batman : The Animated Series. At one part you have to rescue a doctor from some lunatic before he slits her throat. And in the end she got killed.

We forced to take Tuesday off. Means I do not book in until Tuesday. Sweet!



And there's nothing wrong with me
This is how I'm supposed to be
In a land of make believe
That don't believe in me

Dreaming.

Do You Know The Enemy?

Let me be honest. I actually thought NDP was actually worth it. Holding area at Suntec City, got to see cool vehicles at mobile column, see fireworks so up close, see the fighter planes, had Pizza Hut for lunch ( though I admit it was kind of pathetic), but 3DA had to cock up big time. And the best part of their screw ups is that it's us who get f***ed by everyone. We're like their f***ing dummy or something. Anything wrong? Just aim at us. Whose fault? Everyone will see it as ours. And to wait for the damn buses outside Suntec City for past an hour only proves to me how amazing 3DA can be. We're suppose to end at 8pm, but we only left at 10:15pm. Until I missed half of the movie I was suppose to catch with my friends. Seriously, 3DA really proved to me what it is. And assholes in the unit makes it only better.

The same pretty girl still working at Mad For Garlics. Saw my cousin entering the small pub facing Mad For Garlic with his girlfriend to meet other friends to chill. Nice...

Played LAN last night, though it was quite... random. NFS Most Wanted was most fun! Cannot wait for NFS Hot Pursuit!

Still drooling over my new computer :P


Sing us a song of the century,
That's louder than bombs and eternity.

New Computer!

I've got my new computer! So happy! And I can play Batman : Arkham Asylum at maximum graphics! Awesome! Maybe I should try COD MW 2 or something!

Gotta go! Got to download some stuff for my computer and sleep!

NDP tomorrow. Sigh...


Innocence is lost forever

1 For The Puffs

Today was the battalion run. And they are not happy that I did not book in last night to go for run today. I mean, I thought it was optional, considering I took yesterday off. And I stay at Eunos, so why on earth would I rather book in last night and come back to the east this morning? Anyway, I waited for the bus at the bus interchange for so long that I was late. To make it worse, I took a cab that went to the wrong carpark. He went carpark F instead of A, which were miles apart. And everyone were staring at me because I was not wearing my army PT attire on the outside. I wore my own shorts and shirt above my attire because I hate how our PT attire looks. And wearing that on the train is just so embarrassing....

The run was long and slow. And we could not leave until all the curry puffs were finished. But then the rain came and we were allowed to dismiss. Which sucked because I got drenched ttm! Oh well...

My new computer is ready already! So fast! ZOMG!

Tired....

Mentalist!

Spent the day "obtaining" games and watching The Mentalist! Also watched Kick-Ass and tried watching New Moon but New Moon was so boring I gave up within 15 mins. The Mentalist is awesome! I just never seem to get bored of that show! Kind of miss HIMYM right now, maybe I shall watch a couple of episodes and laugh my ass off!

I changed my MixPod video because the 21 Guns MV does not seem to be loading. Is it playing when you guys visit my blog? I changed to Paramore's Ignorance MV to see if it's the video link problem but this video also does not seem to load :(

Tomorrow is a run at Pasir Ris Park! Then book out! Shall go to the gym straight from the run :D

The new Prince of Persia game is not that fantastic because it's somewhat a 2-D game because you move only left and right of the screen -.- And my DJ Max Hot Tunes got a problem. Shall get a better copy from my friend tomorrow!

Vintage Channels

Last night I suddenly recalled all the old television channels Singapore had before Mediacorp was born. I remember that Ch 5 was TCS (Television Corporation of Singapore). I remember it showed the American version of Ultraman in the evenings (I've the whole damn series on CD too). Central was called Premiere 12, that was where all the cartoons were. But because that channel was shared with documentary and stuff, kids shows only aired in the evenings. Then there was Prime 12, which I did not watch because it was a Malay channel.

Then came Channel U and Channel I, probably for "you & I". Channel U was another chinese channel along with Ch 8, while Channel I was an english one with old series like MacGyver and those not-so-common movies. But there were some nice shows too like The Monk! But I think that channel failed big time, so it was closed. Channel U survived though, because it showed those Taiwan or Korean dramas. Good move, because Singaporeans are getting sick of local chinese shows and more people like these kind of dramas.

Then TCS became Channel 5, CNA was born, and Mediacorp was formed. Premiere 12 became Kids Central and Vasantham, while Prime 12 became Suria. And Mediacorp got tired of changing the name from Kids Central to Vasantham that they called it Central altogether. Eventually I think Vasantham found enough shows to have it's own channel, hence Central became Okto.

Don't think I'll apply for my theory today. Shall apply in August, so that after theory I can go for practical lessons immediately. Blame NDP :(

Everything On Computer

Sat in front of my computer the whole day! And still sitting... did practices on my bass, "obtain" song albums, and keep my iTunes up to date! Also watching those shows I got from CR like Criminal Minds!

Was listening to Linkin Park's two old albums: Meteora and Hybrid. And their songs still rock! Hot Chelle Rae's album sounds nice too!

New computer soon! And if I can get good internet, can play CoD MW2 and NFS HP online with the guys! Awesome!

I exercised until my stomach muscles cramped...LOL

Shall play with Photoshop tonight! :D

No one is as lucky as us

Saving PSP

Wow. Took me long enough to finally play God Eater again, and make the D2-D3 switcher work for my MGS Peacewalker (which works btw, now MGS will not hang!). But after that I realise my God Eater no longer recognises my saved file!!! And so I had to find a way to recover the corrupt data. And now it works! Hope there will not be any more screw-ups!

The Long Freedom Break

My bunk has a TV, and this TV can receive indonesian channel. Or is it malaysian? And when it shows world cup, everyone comes to my bunk to watch. Everytime I was about to fall asleep they would shout "Goal! Goal! GOAL GOAL GOAL NOOOOOO!" I praised the Lord when the match ended at midnight. Thankfully they did not watch the 2:30am match, or I would be a zombie today!

Today simulator training was easy and slack! And had loads of fun with the people. But I was so exhausted I dozed off in the afternoon. When we came back to camp we found out everyone else had nights out, so why not us? It's more for them, because I'm booking out today :) And apart from the run at Pasir Ris park this friday and NDP at Padang, I'm only booking in next Monday night! Bring in the champagne!

While at simulator training my staff sergeant sms-ed me asking how come my off was already approved. He said "don't make me treat you like an operator" and wanted to deduct my off. Why? Because I did not get his blessing first. He says I need to ask him first, then ask officer. But come on. Last week I asked the officer, while you were all " wait till next week". And this week came and maybe you do not realise but I did not have any chance to ask you because I was at simulator training at another camp! And by the time I reached back you were already at some recce for NDP! So, genius, how would I get you to sign my off? Want to deduct my off? Go ahead. The right has nothing to fear.

Had dinner with my operators! Had Pastamania. Some of them went to bet on soccer. The time spent betting is not worth the money. But not too bad, because you bet $10 and if you win, you get $70! And one of them was telling me about how much he loved his dog which died at the age of 12. And in my mind I thought the dog was some golden retriever or Lassie. Then he told me it was a chihuahua. I'm sorry but I did not see that coming XD

Now on the way home. On the bus there was this sergeant in uniform and me, in civvies, boarding the bus. Just nice we wanted to walk down the middle, then we offered each other the same time, took a step at the same time... Damn funny and a bit embarassing. Then I insisted he went first. I just stood there. Lol

Shall swim tomorrow! And apply for driving. Unless I feel lazy again :P

I semi-brick my PSP :( Shall try to save it later!

Aging population is another reason to worrying about finding a gal :D





Here we come, here we go, we gotta rock

No Title Comes To Mind?

Well, let's start with this morning. Watched American Pie: Beta House. And it was really, really senseless. What's worse is there are loads of unnecessary nude and sex scenes. It's the kind of movie you'd only watch if you had to choose between that and Bewitched. Speaking of movies, cannot wait for Toy Story 3 and Knight and Day!


Going to get myself a new computer! Will cost around $1.1k.

There's this awesome headphones I plan to get from that shop at Parkway.

Also, got to remember to collect my portfolio. Keep forgetting :/

I feel that instead of being disgusted at gay couples, we should envy how happy they can be while we are pathetic single losers.

If I knew where I went wrong, I'd try to get you again. Because till now, I still think you look simply amazing...

Damn... there were so many things I wanted to blog about but I cannot recall.


Looks like my bass :D


"Now I think moral fiber's about finding that one thing you really care about. That one special thing that means more to you than anything else in the world. And when you find her, you fight for her. You risk it all, you put her in front of everything, your future, your life, all of it. And maybe the stuff you do to help her isn't so clean. You know what? It doesn't matter. Because in your heart you know, that the juice is worth the squeeze. That's what moral fiber's all about."

If your lost,
And you need to find some escape.
Or some peace of mind,

Sony NWZ B-153F Review

Since I'm so free on duty I shall tell you about this baby I bought yesterday, and not from the PC show. I bought it from Harvey Norman. This is the latest addition to the B-series of Sony's WALKMAN MP3, which are basic audio players with no fancy screens and video playback features.

Let's start with the product itself. The size is really compact, like some lipstick. This is better compared to my iPod Touch which, let's face it, is rather bulky for a MP3 player. It acts like a thumbdrive, which is no news. It comes in red, black, light blue and pink.

Features. Well, it is meant to be a basic player, so it's only a music player. Also, you can record voice. But what it has that beats (most) iPods is that it has radio. C'mon, what's an MP3 player without radio? The lack of radio is a big drawback for iPod Touch. Glad the 4th Geb Nano has it though. Anyway, back to this player. The sound quality is rather good, and it may be due to the new $60 Sony earphones I bought with the MP3 player. The player does come with earphones, but not the kind I prefer. One thing awesome about this player is the Bass function, which makes the bass really, really good. Furthermore, I'm a bassist, so I tend to appreciate it more. There's equalizer too, so don't fret.

The player also boasts a really long battery life for a rather short charging time. I'd tell you how long, but you can find that out yourself. I'm not exactly Sony.com.

Transferring music is a breeze. Simply drag and drop. Or use the Windows Media Player to organise your music. Plus, this baby can act as a thumbdrive!

The B-153F comes only in 4GB, but at a price of $99, which includes a 1-year Sony warranty (mine has a subsequent 2- year Harvey Norman warranty), I'd say this is a decent price for a decent player that does not disappoint. If you complain about how primitive it is to use, then all I can say is "Fuck off." because I did mention that it is meant to be a basic MP3 player. I give it a 4.5 out of 5!






Nothing compares to
A quiet evening alone.
Just the one, two
I was just counting on.

~Paramore - Crushcrushcrush

Hot Hot Hot!

Today's duty was a movie marathon! Harold and Kumar, The Girl Next Door, I Know Pronounce You Chuck And Larry... And there was The Break Up on channel 5 but I went to sleep because my medication made me drowzy. And boy do these movies have hot actresses! Elisha Cuthbert is totally hot! As in 11 out of 10! If there is ever more X-men movies, I vote for her to be Emma Frost! She would fit the bill nicely! Then there's Jessica Biel. Another hottie. Though I'd give her a 10 out of 10 only :D And only today did I realise how pretty Jennifer Aniston really is, despite her age. Really sad that her love life is so unfortunate. Hope she finds the one soon! :)

Driving driving driving.

Oh, and I plan to buy a new computer! :D

Probability Problem

Now that I've had some sleep I shall blog more about yesterday! The PC show was crowded. Even walking from City Hall MRT to Suntec City via City Link was a burden. And going from the ground floor to the 4th floor was worse. Makes me wonder if those offers are worth it.

Recently, I was thinking about the probability of finding a girl in university. See, to narrow down is like the coin filter that filter coins based on size such that only the 1 cent coins reach the bottom. A girl who meets my criteria is like the 1 cent coin. (OMG this sounds so offensive but hopefully you girls understand what I really mean.)

First, there are two main categories of girls, one being those who, at their teens, already want a relationship. Out of these girls, 90% are probably taken by now, and the 10% are probably there for a good reason. This means I can only look at the other category, which are girls that put other things above relationship right now. It can be studies, hobbies, or clubbing. I don't know. Anyway, from this group, you then filter to things you'd look for: character, face, figure... And then you realise that you might actually have a reason to worry. Plus, throw some ang mohs into the equation and the number gets smaller. Panic!

I'm going back to sleep. Lol

Homesick

Just finished playing lan! Was rather funny, and L4D2 a bit dull. Fun night nonetheless! And The A-Team is awesome! A show worth your money! Sure the action may be a bit exagerrated a bit but you'll be too engrossed to care!

Right now on a cab back to camp. Really miss my home and family all of a sudden... :(

Shall blog more tomorrow! Goodnight beautiful world!

My throat does not feel right. Hurts and feels like there may be something there. Hopefully I can see doctor tomorrow, meaning I've to see if I can be excused from NDP rehearsal despite me not having a 2IC.

Shall watch a bit of soccer for my friends' sake :) Then I need to go sleep. Need my rest...

Fresh New Look!

Finally! The blogger template designer can be used! And this is my whole new blog! Like the new looks! I was deciding on the background, whether to be this or a beautiful night sky. But because I love my blog title's picture, I chose a daytime background, to signify the freedom and worry-free life we yearn to have! Night sky would be cool too, but that would make the text a bit of a problem when it comes to colour. So, hope you guys like my blog's new look! :) Crazy over this new blog look!!!

Well, today sums up a rather slack week. As in, really slack. And I got next Wednesday and Thursday off! Yay! Got to ask the right people. Because if not, I can only go home next Friday since this Monday. Means around 11 days in camp straight O_O

Watched Ip Man 2 while on duty this morning! It's quite good, too bad the old geezer died. And young Bruce Lee! LMAO!

This sickness of mine does not seem to go away... now my throat is killing me. Feels like some lump in my throat, yet I do not feel anything. Anyway, still ordering Macs tonight! :P

Awesome friends makes awesome fun.


Can we pretend that airplanes

PS. I would have used the above picture as my blog background if I went for "Night Sky" theme! :D

PSS. And yes I know I used the lyrics of "Airplanes" before, but c'mon, won't you  think of that song too when you see the picture? :)))

Stalk & Stare

I've been wondering, comparing a guy who keeps trying to woo a girl and a stalker, what's the difference? Imagine a guy who really likes this girl, so he follows her around and give her gifts, help her when she needs help, be a listening ear when she needs one, despite her rejecting his advances. Now imagine a guy who follows her around because he is either mentally unstable or a wee bit too crazy about her. Are both guys considered stalkers? I think the line is drawn because of how the guy...er...take action for his feelings for the girl. Or mental state(if the stalker is some mentally unstable guy). See how thin the line defining a stalker? Maybe it's just how some people do things differently, but others see it in bad light. Who knows?

Duty time. Missed breakfast at cookhouse, but do not plan to spend at canteen either. Starve? Guess so. Since I've been too sick to really exercise much.

Yesterday was so boring I decided to walk around Northpoint. It was just as boring there that I ate 3 Subway cookies for no reason. And all I did at Northpoint was walk around for 30mins. Dull... If I had you, we could be out having dinner together, laughing about our day, walking around shops, maybe catching a  movie. Sigh...

Once the guys and I were discussing about what we wanted to be when we grow up. I'm not sure if I've talked about this but I'll just say again to make this post longer. Honestly I cannot recall what I wanted to be when I was a kid. Right now if I ask you the same question, what would you say? For me, I just want to be a guy married to the right one. Occupations are not so important to me as finding you.

Had really weird dreams recently. Last night was quite a horrible one. I dream I was watching a television commercial for some Malay programme about ghosts, and it flashed really gruesome pictures on the screen. How did my brain gather such images? A few nights back, I dream I was really angry to someone, and I shouted like crazy at him. I could feel all my rage in the dream, and I'm sure it can match that of the Hulk's. That's not the only dream of rage I've had. I wonder, do remnants of emotions affect what I dream? Random girls who I know, but not close to, appear in my dreams. Makes me realize why I never notice them before. Does emotion screw up dreams, or vice versa?

Flu bug, 4 weeks and counting. Happy Monthiversary!

It took two days
For me to figure out
This isn't working out
But I lost my way

Nothing Done, Nothing Fun

Today, another day stoning. Really, really boring. I want my off! Then I can practise my bass! And buy Batman Arkham Asylum to play, which is well received and high rated. Hope my computer can support though-.- Also want that new MP3 player! But army has to be a pain in the ass and make me miss it. Bummer.

Also, got to get that awesome jacket from Topman at least, if I'm not raping the store :)

God Eater is getting harder, but still as exciting! With "God" monsters now and gay weapons, it's like clash of the titans! Thank God for my friend who is good at the game.

Duty. Duty duty duty. Dumb duty. Pffft.

Need to shed off those fats.

I could use a "You" right now :(

Should I go home this Saturday evening and rush back to camp on Sunday morning? In case I feel homesick :(

:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:):(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:

At first glance,
Do you see a smile in the sadness?
Or a sad face in the happiness?

CR doing duty tonight. LOL!






Mine!

Snoring The Day Away

Well, almost all the operators were on off and there was nothing to do, so I slept the whole day. And my new medication makes me drowsy, so sleeping is not a problem. Boring day though. Should have taken today and tomorrow off.

Wanted to take next wednesday and thursday off. But my staff sergeant told me to ask him next week; now too early. I mean, aren't we suppose to ask early and not last minute? So I said that Monday everyone would be on off, including me and him. Tuesday I would not be in camp because of some simulator training. How can I ask him like that? His reply? Sms him about it next week. Well, fuck you. Next time you ask me go outfield, I'll tell you to "ask me next week" you stupid prick. Seriously, my unit has fucked up people, especially the indians ( no offence to my indian friends out there). Sorry for being so vulgar but seriously my unit has some of the MOST screwed up people EVER.

Many albums to get.

Tired. And really nothing else to say. Goodnight world! Hopefully tomorrow is a better day! Though I forsee sleeping he entire day again :P





You,
Doing that thing you do.
Breaking my heart into a million pieces,
Like you always do.

~ The Wonders - That Thing You Do

Hello! Goodnight!

Today duty was...quiet. There was barely anyone in camp today. So I spent the day in HQ office using computer :P Wrote down loads of tabs and figured them out with the help of Youtube!

Alright! Both Kenny and Jeffrey have God Eater! Time for some God-owning! :D

Damn... Really sad that Peacewalker cannot work :(

My friend's classical guitar is cool! Can kind of practise my bass with it! Nice! Even figured out how to play Happy Birthday on it! Really fun!

Avril Lavigne and Paramore are awesome! Cannot wait to jam!

Raining right now. Perfect to sleep :)

I do not understand those Ah Lians on Facebook. They act cute in photos, have weird names, and still tell people not to pm them or anything. In the first place why make your profile so..."slutty"? Out of your thousands of friends, how many are truly friends? One thing for sure: they all got a same mutual friend - CR :P

Then there are guys who go and screw around with girls, both local and overseas. Was discussing a bit yesterday with Jeff and Kenny. Even guys with girlfriends do such things. Just... Pathetic. "Thrilling" my ass. Just despicable.

These kind of people, where will they ever find the cheek to face their kids in future? How will they expect their kids to be proud of them?

Is it illegal to like you?
To me, yes.




That's what you get
When you let your heart win.

The List

Guys this is the list of songs the vocal can sing. Because my camp computer got no Microsoft Word (Dunno why) I'll post here. Anyway those in bold and underlined are her best songs so those are compulsory. Those with "#" beside the name are the ones I plan for us to learn then can jam with her. I've discussed a bit with CR already. I plan for us to do at least around 8-10 songs with her. Hopefully we can make a jamming session on the 20th.

Ant Bite Ain't Love Bite

"if you were to escape Singapore, would you choose lamborghini or tank?"

How one question could make us talk so much nonsense yesterday during dinner. From that question we moved to other means of escape and ways to counter. There were a lot of funny crap too like how to make planes land and freezing Lee Kuan Yew.

The day started with me waking up, tired, and unable to go back to sleep at 8am. Went to practise Paramore's Brick By Boring Brick before heading to CR's place.

At the lift lobby I thought I just missed the lift because the lift doors just closed. There was this family inside. I tried opening the door but it did not respond; I thought I was too late and the lift was going up. But it did not. So I look at the family, they look at me. Turns out the lift was spoilt. The doors could open and close but the lift could not move. You know what that means? Climbing up 19 floors! Murder! Legs were so tired after that.

Had KFC for lunch with the usual suspects: jeff, ken, Cr. Ole meal is too much for me. Had to force myself to eat the drumstick :/ We did some jamming at CR's place after that. It's not jamming for the band, so I did not mind going. It was...random jamming. And finally did Green Day, especially 21 Guns! Love that song! Also, there was All Time Low's Stella, Dear Maria Count Me In, even About A Girl by The Academy Is...! Cannot wait to try Beat It by Fall Out Boy! Also need to learn the songs for new potential vocal XD

Downloaded MGS Peacewalker! And it works! Hooray!

Loooooong week this week. Book out only on next Monday morning :(

Wierd dream last night. I dreamt I was using a program teaching me how to draw, and the sample pictures I dreamt of were really good and detailed. Don't dreams take images from your memory?why are there really cool pictures in my head? I don't seem to be able to dig out any cool pictures in my memory, or it could help my drawing.

During NDP rehearsal I got bitten by a black ant. I felt a pinching pain on my stomach and I found the bugger. He was still biting when I removed and disposed of him. Yesterday while in the toilet I realised that the bite became what looks like a very ripe pimple O.O I don't understand why...

Got to learn Paramore's That's What You Get, Avril Lavigne's Nobody's Home and Miranda Cosgrove's Kissin' U...

Duty make me miss the upcoming IT fair T_T "IT Fair" and "IT Show"...what's the difference? Both translate to "cheap IT stuff" to me.LOL





She wants to go home
But nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside

Singing It Out

Have you ever tried singing out just for fun? LOL We did! Kenny, CR, Jeff, Rosh, Jokhie and I sang like crazy yesterday at Katong Shopping Centre! Too bad no 21 Guns though... and I realise, how to release stress if we sing those slow songs? Must be those crazy songs! And 2 hours not enough.

We lan after that, but apart from L4D2, the other games were boring. Red Alert 2 was a "back down memory lane" thing though! But game was screwed up...

Got to learn the bass for those songs today, as I will not have any other time to practise. Better get it done before they contact me. lol


Driving backwards, wasting time.
Young love is ruthless, so learn to fly.
You taught me things I can't forget.
I can't walk away, and I can't shake the taste.

Where's My Own Time?

My duty ended at 7am today. Had to go for NDP rehearsal at 7:30am. Amazing. Army takes 6 days out of my 7-day week. Greedy people.

I mean, there is no need for us to marshal these people! All we are are messenger pigeons that gets f***ed by both ends. Just to get "best unit" we volunteered to do this thing. Sigh... This is not worth burning my weekends.

Too tired for anything... Maybe even karaoke.

Maybe it's time I start my own one...





Hammed-ster.
Haha lame.

Crying Cats

The past few months I've wondered where the 3DA cat went. That cute, playful cat that would come to us with its big, adorable eyes, meow-ing softly for food. Or when it rolls around the ground for attention, or simply enjoy you petting its back. When we do system checks, the cat would wander around the hangar, once even trying to scratch one of the bags.

Today my officer told me that a few days ago some jerk ran over the poor cat's leg, and the poor fellow went to a drain to hide. While doing some training, he heard the cat and went to check out the noise. And he found the poor cat's leg broken, the bone jutting out, with maggots crawling within it. He said the poor cat was crying, its eyes tearing. My officer called SPCA and there goes the cat.

I believe in karma. I really do. One day, that f***er will get banged by some vehicle too.

Everyone got to book out at 3pm today! No fair. I'm stuck at duty until tomorrow morning... And after that straight away is NDP rehearsal. Damn. And Monday's off for NDP rehearsal is eaten away by another duty. At least I got my Sunday free! Appreciate the small things.





See things from a different perspective.

Restart

"Water Balloons". Nice!

Well, today was tiring! Setting up four systems with just four operators. Crazy! But I had loads of fun playing God Eater with them! 4-player co-op ftw! :D

Anyway, yesterday's training was awesome. Imagine sleeping on one of the very high buildings in Singapore. Sleeping at such a height, enjoying the night breeze at a higher level! And we saw a lot of cool stuff in the sky. Despite all the trouble, I'm glad to be able to enjoy the beautiful view!

Duty month. Because of it I probably cannot go shopping with the guys. F***...

At times, I feel like just leaving this mess of a life here and start anew somewhere else...

Finding the right band...




I need another story
Something to get off my chest
My life gets kinda boring
Need something that I can confess

Where Are You Now?

Where are you,
To hear my thoughts,
To listen to my troubles,
To share my joy,
To share my tears,
To keep loneliness out,
To give me something to think about,
To care for and love,
To know what true happiness truly is?
Where are you now?


Got to start learning those songs: Kissin' U, Brick By Boring Brick, The Only Exception...LOL



Maybe I know somewhere 
deep in my soul that love never lasts.
And we've got to find other ways 
to make it alone but keep a straight face.

Building Apartments In The Sky

Wow. I found out my dream apartment costs $2 million! And $5.5k to rent. Oh well... Looks like I've nothing to do except save 2 million! :P I really love the apartment, and hopefully I can one day stay in it. Hopefully before I reach 30.

Now still stuck on a high roof...think I just saw a shooting star O.O Either that or a burning plane...though that is a bit unlikely because after it combusted it disappeared in the night sky. Cool.





If I'm a bad person, you don't like me
Well, I guess I'll make my own way
It's a circle, a mean cycle
I can't excite you anymore

The Home Of My Dreams

From where I'm standing right now, I just stare at this particular building right in front of me. It's the perfect house I will dream of staying. It's my ideal home. Shall start finding out more about this awesome apartment. It looks nice, and the view from the balcony is just breath-taking...

For my birthday, I just want to perform 21 Guns. And also donate blood for the first time :D

Got to do some work. Shall blog more later.Lol




House it may be,
But home is where I belong

Taking A Break

I was doing a lot of thinking the past few weeks, and I've decided to, in a way, "quit" the band for a while. Firstly, because I'll be way too busy to jam this whole month. Secondly, so does majority of the band.

The thing is, being a band with a group of close friends does not sound easy to me. Neither does it actually sound good either. Take it as having a relationship within our group. If the relationship turns sour, won't the group be affected? The way I see it, the band is that "relationship" to me. I mean, what good has the band actually done positively to our CR gang?I for one do not actually see one. And I want to take a step back from it all for a while.

Even if I do open up, I still hold back a little. Even that day when we had our little "band discussion". Because, I can spill everything I have to say and it would probably screw up the CR gang. Face it, we cannot exactly be "no holding back". If I really did not hold back things might have gotten ugly. I'll never spill everything. Never. Because I've been doing a lot of thinking.

When I first started, I felt excited to go for jamming. But when I really knew what I wanted, and how the band was, I realised I did not like it. Honestly, I'm not keen on jamming these days as before. I've, to be direct, lost the passion to jam.

Maybe it's because I'm of a different frequency with our band currently. I'm dying to do gigs, but that's just trivial. The more important thing: I want to be enjoying music. I want to have fun with songs like Green Day, All Time Low, Hey Monday, Paramore. Sure I may say "I'm fine with it", whatever "it" may be, but it's because I cannot be bothered anymore.

It's not like we'll be doing any jamming or anything any time soon, plus with my helluva duty schedule. So I want to take a break from our band, not care nor be involve in it in any way for a month or two. It's not that I hate our band; I just don't like it as before. So I'm going to shut out our band from my life for a while because I want to find the passion for jamming I've lost in the way. And maybe some of us should too.





Maybe we were young for too long.

Army Blues

Well, army is officially screwed up. After this weekend, for the next 3 weekends I'll have NDP on Saturdays and duty on Sundays. Means my weekends are gone. Ask me take weekdays off for fuck? My family and friends will not be free. Fuck you NS.

I think losing you memory is kind if like you dying, just that your body is controlled by another you...





Ignorance is your new best friend

Can't Sleep

I just don't feel good. Stupid flu... Suddenly had an urge to eat at 11pm and ate a lot of unnecessary snacks...wth...

I just had a thought. Imagine if I told a girl this:

You're my back up plan,
Not because I fear she won't like me.
It's because I may not like her.

I mean, normally girls will feel like second fiddle if she's some "back up". And guys tend to have "back up" in case things don't work out with his main target ( which is plain A-hole). If the guy calls you a "back up" because he is unsure about his feelings for this girl, and needs someone to fall back on or turn to if it does not work out, would you still feel like a second fiddle?

F***ing flu is screwing me up :(((((




It's a brand new day,
Another story to tell.
