High heels and blisters. 092805

I went to this Networking Night at NUS last night. It was pretty fun, just cuz it's so wierd to be transitioning from student to professional yanno? Like you gotta dress up business-like, which is really different than dressing up for a party or a dinner. So it's the first time I really tried looking business-like, with a black portfolio carrying case thingy too. STYLO eh. It's fun to see your classmates in that transitioning phase with you too, like everyone's going through the same thing: almost gonna graduate, looking for a job. Nice to compare experiences, to know that you're not alone.

Everything's so full of potential now!! I'm so :D. Birthday plan: prawning at midnight, karaoke'ing, drinking-on-a-staircase'ing, cutting cake'ing, and BBQ'ing. Yessah!

Yut yut chut! 092505

Sneak preview of a design I did for my new super hella cool ass gang, the 117 gang. Hahaha.. inside joke from coffee session last night la. But seriously I like the name. I won't say too much or you all think I'm dorkass one for being so childish. HEHEHE. But it'd be hella funny no? Like everytime we see each other, instead of "hello" we could yell out "117". I prefer to do it in Cantonese. Haha. Kie I'll stop here.

For the clean cut look. 092305

Macromedia Freehand 9 is so interesting! I probly sound stupid there, but I'm like just getting into it. Fun fun. I tried getting into vector stuff before, but I think I took the wrong approach cuz I was trying to use vectors to imitate a photo of a person's face and that is just hella tedious. But using vectors to design words and shapes and stuff is nice. The possibilities!

Sometimes you have so much baggage with a person, it leads you to act a certain way when you're with them even if the person didn't do anything to upset you today. Yanno? I dunno if that's clear, but say for example you have a friend who's alrite at first. Then the friend gets a little annoying. Then more annoying. Then your annoyance with that friend just keeps building and building until you can't stand the person cuz you think the person is the most annoying person ever. But in reality the person's the same as always, just that your own view has become very subjective. Usually after some time away from that person, your view will be back to normal. The baggage in this case would be that you think the person is already annoying, so basically anything the person does (maybe not even annoying at all) could easily add fuel to the fire.

Thas just an example, not something I'm experiencing right now. Just that I was thinking that I gotta get better at viewing things with a fresh mindset.

Tranquility. 092105



Bangkok was nice as usual. Bought more than I expected to as usual. Good food. Lots of stuff to see. The shwai wanton mee sifu grew a moustache, which makes him look old but still stylo. I don't really do much in Bangkok, but somehow it's just interesting.



Had a talk with my ah Loon about stuff. Like I guess I been trippin about how he hella hangs out with his friends more than me, like going to watch movies and going for supper with them and stuff. But I understand now that it's cuz they live near each other so it's like hella more convenient for them to do shiet at a moment's notice. And for us, it's like we gotta go and plan to do shiet ahead of time. Which is kinda saddening but whatever, cuz I have hella other shiet that I should be concentrating on doing so not really much motivation to change things at the moment. So I guess our relationship will just be liddat for now. But I'm at peace with it.

And I guess I'll end with a gripe. When you walk past a group of ppl and one guy from the group approaches you and says, "My friend wants to be friends with you. Can you give me your number?", don't you think it's like... Hmm. Why doesn't the guy who wants to be friends with you approach you directly, rather than getting his friend to do it? Does it really work better if your friend does it? Cuz if I agree to give my number, it's like gonna go to a complete stranger. I mean the guy who approached you is a stranger too, but at least not a complete stranger like the guy who was too chicken/shy/? to approach you himself. You dig? Not exactly a gripe, but it just got me wondering.

Kbus. 091605

Hung out with SP troupe tonight. Twas HELLA funny. Instead of hiring a lorry to take us to the temple they were performing at, they hired a bus. And the bus had karaoke in it. With Hokkien songs. Hella funny stuff.

The celebration they were having at the temple was hella cool. I guess it's for the mooncake festival? But like there were lots of different food stalls and you could just line up and get food for free. Satay, otah, oyster omelette, char kway teow, curry chicken, ice cream, etc. Plus free lanterns (stylo ones -- I got an Ultraman-ish one). Plus some lion and dragon performances.

It's cool to be part of the temple stuff. Like cuz most temples are built in the middle of nowhere so the ppl who go are the ones whose families have ties with the temples. It's like so mysterious.

So I'm out of my funk cuz I'm doing shiet besides studying! So it's all good for now.

Blue eyes are so purty. Not all blue eyes of course, but yanno. I wanted to stare at my friend's eyes today but it might've been wierd. Hehe.

Do most relationships after like three years get boring? Like of course it's hella different than the initial stages of giddiness and excitement that you feel when you're crushing, but there is a difference between comfortable-ness and boring-ness, no?

Hum. Or maybe this boring-ness I'm feeling is a result of my life in general rather than due to my two-years-ten-months-one-week relationship. And not bored really...more unexcited. Why am I so uninspired these days.

EEEE! 091205

AAHHH...There's a hella cute guy that lives around here somewhere. I've seen him a couple a times recently. He smiled at me! LOL. But ah..just harmless eye candy. I think he speaks Cantonese. :D

Break's coming up, going to Bangkok. I miss good food.

Utterly boring life.

Stylo ass. 090905

Went to Taka to see lion dance comp yesterday. Twas cool. The second to last troupe was a foshan style troupe, which is like the hella original style that encorporates a lot of wushu background. I like watching that style more than the other new fangled styles. It's like so much more..powerful. Twas cool to see my lion dance ppl after so long. GRATZ!

In other news, Jordis is out. :( But that's okie cuz I don't think she matched INXS anyway. But she'll get famous anyway.

Later going on a date with my ah Loon. Guess where? The Museum of Biodiversity. ^_^

At certain times, there are things you don't mind doing and in fact pursue happily. But add in stress, stress, and more stress, and everything becomes a burden and an obligation that you'd rather not have to commit to. LEAVE ME ALONE.

Weakass. 082505

Hey what up. So I was thinking, if your significant other left you for one of your good friends, what would you do? Of course from my outside perspective, it's hella easy for me to say like "Move on! He/she ain't even worth it." But if it happened to me, I wonder if I would move on hella quick or sulk for hella days. I hope I never become so weakass that I'd be like the latter. I think maybe one day is alrite for sulking, getting drunk ass, and crying, then after that you gotta move on cuz that's hella fk'd up of your ex and you shouldn't waste time on him/her anymore.

But I guess it'd also depend on how good a friend the "good friend" is too. Cuz it really sucks to lose a hella good friend. If it was a hella good friend, it'd mess me up more losing that friend than losing the significant other. I think?

Anyway. That won't happen to me. ^_^ My ah Loon won't stray. If he ever does, I would resort to violence. Mwaha. jk.jk.

Deal with it. 082305

You know what I realized? It hella irks me when ppl ask, "why do you carry two bags?". It's absurd the number of ppl that have asked me that. Like IS IT SO FKN WIERD? I'm at SCHOOL. One is a SCHOOLBAG, ie. for carrying notebooks and textbooks and big shiet like that. The other one is a purse/bag I always carry around containing money, cards, camera, and whatever other crap that I like to carry around. For fk sake, it's not like I can cram books into my purse right? GARRRR.

And another one that's getting right up there with the two bags question is the wearing-socks-with-slippers question. I LIKE IT. I think fkn stylo one. Got PROBLEM ah? *nao hia*

(I in a very confrontational mood.)

Clouds. 082205

I hung out with my aunt and uncle yesterday. They used to live in Singapore but they moved to London about..two years ago? So my uncle's learning taichi over there and it just seems kinda funny cuz he's a big French guy. But it's cool. He said when he's standing at the bus stop, he'll be moving his hands in some "holding clouds" taichi move and no one will care over there. They'll like purposely ignore you. Which is like hella funny cuz that's how it is in big cities yanno? Like better to mind your own business cuz the guy moving his hands around might be some psycho ass. :P

P.S. Would you pay US$24.92 for this blue blob?

Awe. 081905

Mig's performance of "Baby I Love Your Way" on this week's Rock Star: INXS is NICE. Go and listen, or better yet you should find a place to download the episode so you can hear it in all its glory.

I didn't like him that much before, but after watching this performance I like him. I thought he was kinda not nice looking before, but it's kinda funny how when a guy can play an instrument and sing well, he becomes nicer looking. Let's see how he does next week.

Game of life. 081805

My pool skill has seriously gone to shiet..the past two times I played, like forreal I couldn't pot for shiet even if I tried to concentrate. Hella depressing. But I guess should be worrying about other stuff for now. Concentrate on school and project and obligations. How depressing it all is. Saddening.

I
am
sad.

How dramatic.

Good night.

Hit-ed on. 081705

So I was thinking. When a stranger guy comes up to you and says "Hi...blah blah blah.. Is it possible for me to get to know you better?", dont you think it's like such a not flattering pick up line? Like no style at all. Like they're like stating their intentions straight away with bo skill to make it charming. And it's like awkward for the girl, what's she supposed to say to answer that? "Yes"? What straight-up directness.

Thas just my take on it. Cuz if I hear something like that I'm like thinking *NOOOO* *run* *FAST*. Maybe cuz I'm taken already, but forreal it's an awkward question to answer.

Innocence. 081605

Maybe deep down, one of the things that geared me towards liking dragons. Haha. This is the park that I used to play at when I was small. Looking back, I think the concept is cool. I haven't seen any other parks with dragons circling. I guess cuz it's near Chinatown, they wanted it to have a Chinese theme. It sure attracted a lot of pigeon poop.

Blub. Back then the dragon didn't have painted eyes tho. It must have developed some kind of liver disease. Blub blub.

I wonder if kids still play on it.

Low. 081405

Not really pumped anymore. Just hella tired. Been neglecting study the past 3 days, so must get to that. But got to go to lunch first. Yanno some days, you just wanna stay home cuz you have hella stuff to take care of?

Welcome tea was alrite. Don't want to elaborate on that. Thinking of starting up Tuesday night trainings. Looking okay so far.

I am tired.

High. 081205

Mwahaha I'm like hella pumped man. CMAD (Combined Martial Arts Display) was surprisingly fun and quite entertaining. After our part of the performance was over (which went pretty well btw), we managed to go and sit in the audience to watch the rest of the show. It was hella more like comedy at the end man, it was hella funny. No offense to fencing, but they predetermined what moves they were gonna do during the bouts so it was kind of slower than what would normally happen I guess, but that made it hella funny. Plus the buzzing sound when the fencing sword touches the suit added to it. You just had to be there.

I'm so glad I went to KFC with the rest of the NWP ppl after the show, or else I might've gotten approached by this creepy guy while walking alone rather than at KFC with all the brothas (including 4 black belts) with me. Cuz apparently the guy was on the same bus as us, got off at the same stop, and followed us to KFC to talk to me. Creepy and rude.

Welcome tea for Nam Wah Pai is tomorrow! Hope it goes super hella great. I am pumped man.

Vainpot. 081105

My ah Loon said that he might have to cut his hair cuz he has to report back to army to let them check all his equipment. I think that sucks cuz it's only for like an hour or something? Like I asked him if he could just tie it up or braid em into cornrows or something, then afterward just take it out again. He said he can't. Dunno what's the reasoning. But I hope he can get away with it. I told him to tell the commanding officer guy that I'll cry if he cuts it.

How superficial huh? But seriously, I think his current hairstyle looks really good on him. It accents his face structure nicely. But everytime he grows his hair long enough for it to be stylo, some army shiet has to come up.

In other news, Jingyao gave me a big fkn bruise on my leg. Gratz. I am weakshiet. *salute*

Pondering. 080905

I been watching Korean movies again right, and all those mobsters hella fight when they're wearing suits yanno? Isn't it like troublesome to fight when you're wearing a suit? I would think so, but it looks so natural in the movies. Hehehe.

Friend or foe. 080405


Hehe. My dad sent that to me. What wickedness.

I'm no longer taking that 8am class. :) Converted to all night classes for this sem. Blub blub. Still haven't gone to Ang Mo Kio Ave 10 to visit the dai chow ppl and scold them for moving so far away. Did I mention that? I used to get my dinner from them all the time downstairs and they were like family cuz they spoke Cantonese too. Then they went and moved away while I was overseas, and some Mandarin ppl replaced them. *heart pain* :p

Ngo tiew jai. 080205

Samurai. 080105

First off, I am hecka sore from all the flying turning jump kicks during training. Argh. Like really ARGH man. Got to buck up for grading.

*edit* wah sei..AND I'M BACK TO RUBBING BRUISES. I seriously dunno when I got this fat bruise on my ankle. oh Nam Wah Pai, how thee hurts me. *end*

I highlighted my ah Loon's hair yesterday. It was my first time highlighting someone's hair using the aluminum foil way yanno? I think it turned out good. He is ho gwai leng jai now! Even more if he tie up his hair like this, dontcha think? :)

Eeeeeee so handsome. *hysterical girly screaming* ... *swoon* ... haha

Writing skillzzz.

MWAHAHAHA 26 bucks foooool!!!

So this one sucker cop musta been trying to fill his quota the other day when I was back at home, cuz we came out to our car and hella ppl had parking tickets..including us. It said we were parked in a yellow zone, but like we hella thought that it was no longer a valid yellow zone (for several good reasons, but long story short). Since I was so spurred on by the injustice of it all, I went and took pictures of the place and contested the citation (by mail). I wrote a beaut-iful f'n letter out to go with the pictures, and after almost 4 weeks of waiting: You are not liable for this citation. :D

We had to spend like a dollar some to print pictures and for postage, so we saved like 25 bucks. But it's the sweeeeet smell of VICTORY and satisfaction... :)
