the ex-beattyians jiwa maut

one for all, all for one. but guess who was having the real sore eyes.

if it had been alcohol instead of oolong tea, i would probably still be lying on the streets of holland village passed out reeking of vomit all over, wasted. because i kept losing the 'guess the number' game, i had to at least drink half a jug of tea which tastes like orange and lime juice mixed together. defeat has never tasted so sweet before, literally. too much of a good thing is very bad indeed, as i soon found out in the comfort of my home toilet. i probably shit(ted) and peed all the oolong tea away as soon as i got home.

what i've learnt today is that your birthday will be more memorable when you have a girlfriend. not because you'll get laid on the night of your birthday, but because she will most likely plan a surprise for you. if she is a smart girlfriend, she'll have your friends there for the surprise too.

the KGB is a sad bunch. everyone at the party just now was attached, except us four musketeers. every birthday party that we attend to, we always end up eating and laughing like hyenas, repeating the same old jokes over and over again. we never seem to really mingle with the rest of the crowd. even if we did, it would be after quite some time. it's not that we're anti-social, we're just a sad troupe.

i need to find a girlfriend, which i don't think i need because the company i receive from my friends is better than any girlfriend i had before, before the 24th of june. it would be hell on earth if i had to spend my birthday on tekong island with 20 other guys.

happy birthday thierry alfian.

ode

there's this blog that i do frequent quite often because of it's witty and thought-provoking content. last night, i came across this particular entry which somewhat resembles what i went through. in that entry he mentions his mother coaching his siblings and himself every night throughout their primary school days. he has done exceedingly well in his studies and is now in a very respectable profession(this is not the similar part).

the thing which i used to face that he faced too, was that both our mothers guided us during our early years of education. i remember my mother would spend hours trying to get simple mathematics into my head and sometimes because of my poor ability to grasp information quickly, she would end up scolding me. i would get angry and upset at her once in a while because i don't like being scolded. childish, i know. but right now i feel thankful for all the hours of effort that she put in in grooming me to where i am now. even till today, i still am learning life skills or general knowledge from her.

the next time she askss me "aren't you thankful to have a mother like me?", i will say yes and probably hug her. all the while if she asks me that question i would playfully say "ya ya" although in my heart i really do mean it. so if the situation does arise in the future, i will show her that i mean it.

i wonder if you know, how to be a mat motor

i need to start working soon so that i can go for another holiday, maybe patong beach again or krabi, before i get that dreaded letter from cmpb and it had better not be bloody last minute like 2 weeks notice.

there are 3 different letters that i can receive:

1) we cordially invite you to stay in our maximum security holiday resort on beautiful tekong island. accomodation and food is free. so do the clothes and haircut. we gurantee you'll be slimmer and fitter than ever and you'll leave with a nice tan.

2) our new chalets are now opened and it is our pleasure to have you as our guests. we will ensure that you have a very relaxing stay as past guests have commented that they have more than enough sleep here. the staff are also very nice.

3) as our hotel will be beside the cemetery, this will be a test of how big your balls actually are. here, you will learn to play with water and get to know alot of mats.

jingle bells

you actually end up pitying them. not because of what they are, as i respect them for who they are and what they decide to become, but for what they do. there're better jobs out there but yet they choose to become like this. i hope they change their mindets and know what's right and best for them. i don't think i am emotionally cut-out to be a guy hostess or anything of that sort. the thought of entertaining random people everynight just to earn a meagre sum of money to make ends meet is just too much.

sentosa is shit compared to this

i think i want to get married after the age of 35, and she has to be a caucasian girl. i would like to concentrate on my career first as well as achieve the other things in life. the things on my mind right now are travelling all over the world, and perhaps to work in different countries each for a short duration of time. i'd like to live life day by day. life is short therefore do everything while you're still young and abled. the world is the britannica encyclopedia and singapore is just a fullstop in it.

SAME SAME

after the end of each holiday, i always dread going back to 'reality'. this trip to phuket is no exception. the laid back lifestyle, beautiful scenery and friendly people has made it a wonderful and memorable experience. i'd definitely want to go back there again, and for a longer period of time. maybe i shall just migrate there. i can work at starbucks junkceylon mall or cut my cock and work at katoys'r'us.

3 things which we did most:

1. beach-ing(swiming in clear water and chillaxing on 100baht beach chairs)
   
2. dvd-ing (borat, blood diamond, saw 3, last king of scotland, house on haunted hill)
   
3. eat-ing(kebabs, subway, indian food, burger king, dairy queen, dunkin donuts)
   

going, going, gone

i'm leaving on an airplane tomorrow! it feels good to fly again although i'll just be in the backseat. talking about flying, i think i should be thankful that i can captain an aeroplane, even though it's a piece of ikan bilis junk, because there're people out there who have actually never flown before.

as we go on

finally i feel so relieved. the exams have come to an end. overall it wasn't a killer one, it was managable therefore i should be attending the graduation ceremony this may. alas, another chapter has drawn to a close. i will definitely miss poly life but that doesn't mean i want to repeat anything. moments such as playing pranks during lab sessions, skipping classes to play football or finish up last minute projects, checking out the very rare pretty girls in foodcourts, going clubbing with my classmates, studying together and sharing resources before tests and exams and so many more will be cherished by me.

it was two and a half years well spent. thank you Singapore Polytechnic.

i like

i like blogs which have many pictures, less words, a good command of english and preferably steered away from writing mundane daily happenings. it doesn't have to be written in flowery language but if it's almost grammatically error free then that it would be excellent. i don't like to read blogs with entries that are 1000 words long. just think, do you actually reckon people would read them? not unless it's interesting like your boyfriend fucked you and you got pregnant and your parents are going to cut you up and throw you down the rubbish chute. so if you want to be a star blogger, heed my advice.

whenever i dream of a girl kissing me, it'll always be the same girl. she should really kiss me in real life. someone has ever commented that i have girl-like cheeks.

land of smiles

i can get very descriptive

although i am holding a singapore passport which i have to bloody extend every few months, i believe that thailand should have won the final because i'm a firm supporter of beautiful football and thailand has obviously displayed a very high degree of skill and fitness. they outplayed singapore throughout the whole game, squandering a few clear cut chances but most importantly, they were showing off their good touches and passing and lightning quick pace. unlike the singapore players who should be american football punters because all they do is just pump the ball up blindly. singapore is an excellent example of 'i'll be lucky than good any day'. world cup in 2010? i think we should shift our attention to winning the DOTA cup in 2010.

the phuket trip's exactly one week from now. for our own safety, we will be indonesians.

crossroads

only at the age of 19 that i realise i should have really, like fuckin seriously, listened to my parents a long time ago. as a kid, they always emphasised on the importance of a good education. being the playful me i didn't really take my studies like it really mattered a lot but i did get serious at times when i really needed to. therefore today i'm just an average student who faces the never ending project datelines and tests.

however that could have been different if i had listened to my parents and chosen a better career path. it's only now that i realise what i want to do, where i want to go to and what i want to achieve. but i guess it's all too late. it's just a dream now and i know that somewhere out there, some other boy is living my dream. i shan't tell you what the dream is because it's ambitious beyond imagination. but aren't all dreams like that?

everything starts out as a dream.
