Yes, I bloody flunked the MCSE exam.... 2 test cases are new and are somethign we don't encounter in the Testking script. Rudy barely passed and I, of course, flunked pretty bad since I didn't studied much.....
Since I expected the results, I didn't feel disappointed for I know I deserved the outcome. So Rudy suggested riding around to unwind the tension. Just as we were having dinner, Dady called and tell me to meet her. Ok, Dez, AL and 2211 are present as well so I thought I might as well meet 2 new friends as well as introduce Rudy to the rest.
As usual, gatherings with Dez around is always fun and full of laughter. 2211 is easy to warm up to and AL is easy going too. We chilled around for a while before they split up from us and we went for some terrorising on the road.
Wat a day huh....
A new Digital Camera...
After work I and Weiming went to Comex to check out the Pocket PC that he's interested in. His new work requires it as the schedule is getting hectic and he don't want to have a thick organiser to bring around. We took a cab, and upon reaching there, the crowd there is unbelievable!
We walked around on the main hall to check out the digital cameras as I also looking for a camera as I have been looking for one for quite a while. Upon browsing at one of the booth, I met Jesmond, my army bunkmate. Boy, that was nice to see him again as I've lost contact with him for a couple of years. He was working as a promoter over there. I was actually looking for a 3 Megapixel camera but he recommended the 6 Megapixel which can take pictures up to 12 Megapixels. And looking at the price and the bundle that came with it, it was certainly a good steal. I didn't get it immediately so we headed for the PPC corner to check out the PDA.
Weiming checked out the HP Rx3700 and he was very tempted by it. It has a built-in 1 MP camera and the exterior design is sleek. I told him to look around for more options first. After going a round, he finally decided to get the PDA. Rudy came shortly. I told him about the camera deal and he was a bit skeptical. So I brought him to the booth and while I made the purchase, he was checking it out with his girlfriend. After getting the camera, he told me that he was tempted by the camera too and said that he will probably come back the next day to get the camera.
Finally I got myself a digital camera... time to snip snip snip away... muahahahhha

Crossroads
These few days I've been thinking.....should I bail out and give up years of effort that I've been trying to make something out of it, or should I just don't think about it and keep on trying until I know that nothing can be done anymore? Been feeling underwhelmed by the responses received recently and despite trying to think in a positive way, one can't help but feeling shit about this kind of responses.
Seriously, I won't feel guilty or even regret if I chose to bail out now for I know I've done my part. If everyone just fork in a bit more effort or at least show some enthusiaism I won't feel so disappointed now. I understand everyone now have their own life to lead.......
Ahh... maybe I'm just thinking too much. Too much idle time that is.....

Ahh... maybe I'm just thinking too much. Too much idle time that is.....
Seriously, things always come in a pair, or even more. First, I overslept and ended up taking half day leave. Then came home to see my stuff on the keyboard had dropped and picked up, with my $650 POD on it! I was telling myself to control my frustration.
Then when I go for the jamming session, the jamming session was a total disaster. It's just so fucking messy. What the fucking is happening? Everything just don't go well. Nevermind, Fangs is rushing back so I told them to go my place first while I talk to Yun about the lyrics issue. After the discussion, I walked back to my place and found that they didn't wait for me and left first. Ok, I can deal with that, since they probably don't feel comfortable at my place without me around.
Upon reaching the supper place, although we're talking like normal, somehow I got this kind of distant feeling from everyone. Maybe they knew I'm not in the best of mood so they don't probably talk to me too much.
I still see little or no progress in the band, and felt a bit disheartened by the general status of the members, makes me wonder from time to time when the fuck we are going to start recording for the freaking album. Judging by the current status, it'll certainly take quite a while. I don't even think we're ready for gigs at best!
ARRRRGGGHHHH this is fucking fustrating! Plus what happened earlier really triggered and I just let go on my mum when I found that she's the one who dropped my stuffs. I just keep shouting at her and I just can't think clearly anymore. I just closed my room door and just play DOD to vent my fustrations.
By the time I'm writing this, the fustration had more or less lessened. Thinking back, I shouldn't have shouted at my mum when the fustrations get the better of me. If I can control fustrations well like I control my anger then these things won't happen. Think I better be alone just for a while. That way, people around me won't get affected and I won't vent my emotions on anyone as well. Thank God I didn't swear at my mum earlier or things may just get more worse than now.....Thinking of the possible outcome if I had sweared really send a chill down my spine....

One Helluva Trip
Today went to JB for bike washing. So straight after recording at Fang's place, I went home and pack to go to GP to meet that kotek. When we reached the destination, we found that the shop is closed, so we decided to move on to check if there's any other shop. Just down the road, we saw another car wash shop and we asked if they wash bikes as well. After some negotiation, they agreed to wash the bike. Boy, ain't they fast and efficient. They finished washing 3 bikes in an hour's time, 3 person to each bike. We were very satisfied with their quality of work. Cheeko, tried on Kotek's bike and that started some incident......
After the washing, we went to the nearby Ramli's Burger stall, and Jobel just blew up out of the sudden and shouted at Cheeko for being insensitive. Although she claimed that it's not the bike riding issue (but that started the whole thing, which I think is damn childish) and it's the little things that build up the fustration. Cheeko, being a person with a stoned look, just stand there and listen to Jobel's ranting. Being in a town where robberies are common, I proposed that we settle the matter at Esso GP.

On the way back, I and Cheeko exchanged bikes and I get to ride the new VFR for the first time. Wow, this bike really feels like a car, no vibrations and damn quiet. No doubt a good cruiser.
When we reached GP Petronas station, after filling up our tanks, we settled down in the cafe and talk things out. Cheeko is pretty pissed about the whole thing as he felt that she's kicking up a big fuss over such small matter (Women.....what do you expect *rolleyes*) and after a lengthy talk, I and Rudy managed to pacified her and when Rudy came back after sending Cheeko off, he revealed to us that he's on the verge of losing his job and that's why he can't be bothered by such matters. After hearing that, Jobel simmered down and after resting a while, we moved on back to Sinkapore.
It was 2am when we reached homeland and went to Rudy's place to collect his dad's DVD then we moved off to my place to have supper. By the time we're done, it's almost 4am, but we decided to go to Mustafa's anyway. Shiok, that was the first time I shop in a shopping mall in the middle of the night. I was preparing to get a digital camera as I more or less decided which model to get. But just before I get the camera, the staff told me that the display set is the last piece. After some thoughts, I think I'll wait for the new stock to arrive and get a new one. Well, maybe it's a sign to tell me not to buy the camera....
Yes!
As I was doing my work, Mok came into the lab and said he wanna talk to me. I guess that it must be related to my job application. What surprised me that he offered the job to me without a second interview! Woohoo! Finally I got the job! However, it's not a permanent position but a year-long contract. Nevertheless, he explained that I can get converted to permanent status if I performed well.
Well, I just converted to permanent status in my present company 2 months ago, and now I took a risk by taking up a contract job again. I think that's a good risk, as since I now can work for MNC rather than a local company. It's always my aspiration to work for a MNC as they are not as focused on paper qualifications as the local counterpart.
Now, all I can do is wait for the HR department to talk to my company to release me from their employment.... Lai Fong had been a good boss and I greatly appreciate the exposure she had given me for the past one year.

Friends.....
Sometimes I wonder..... what is friend? How do you define one? Have I myself been a good one to others?
Or nowadays friend are just another human where one would make use of? How many of one's friends will actually do everything for you when you need his/her help, and how many can instantly know it's you on the phone by hearing your voice without looking at the Caller ID?
I believe everyone have a different answers for the same questions. There's one quote I've read somewhere that is pretty sensible: "It doesn't matter if you knew thousands of people, but you have nothing if none of them is your true friend"
In my society, people had put on many masks that you have difficulty knowing which is the real face. Sometimes the real face can be pretty ugly. People are no longer simple, they judge based on "face value". When comes to interviews, you'll be out of their list if you portray your real self which may not be to their liking. When comes to gathering, people calls you "antisocial" or "act cool" if you portray your quiet self.
Damn daunting thoughts, but true in certain aspects.....

Mersing Trip
Woke up at 6am today. yesh, I'm late for the trip again. Luckily I've prepared my stuff yesterday so all I need is wash up and go. But then, I forgot to draw money from the ATM!!!! Ok, I go to my nearest ATM and found that the ATM is out of service! Ok, the shitty things just don't end yesterday huh. I ride to the other ATM and found that the ATM for the entire island is down!!! How worse my luck can go to. Luckily I still have some RM leftovers from the previous trip so should be enuff for makan in Malaysia.
So, knowing that I'm late for my trip, I rode as fast (and within speed limit) as I could to the Tuas checkpoint. After the checkpoint, I rode as fast (and no speed limit) as I can to reach the other side. Once there, I found out that it's an organised trip rather than a casual trip. Damn, that's one thing I don't expect.
The trip will be almost halfway up the peninsula and make a round back in a day, which measured about 600km. We moved up to Mersing cut across the peninsula and back to Stinkapore via North-South highway.
Resting/refueling at a petrol kiosk, halfway to Mersing
Stopping by a village for a short breakfast
Finally reached Mersing ;)
Overshot our lunch destination by 10km.... now resting by roadside to check the map......
Me with my signature finger and my bike
Stopping by for lunch
Curious Malaysians
Resting by a village again.... most are getting sleepy due to lunch
Some scenery shots along the way
Stopping by for a break again.
Another scenery shot
Waiting by the road for our 2 riders who strayed from the group

After we entered the North-south highway, everyone is on our own. The highway is packed with cars and we have to speed our way thru under our worn-out condition. After an hour of riding, we finally reached Gelah Petah Esso, where we refuel and rested for another hour. The road home is pretty much a struggling one, as my wrist is aching very badlly and all of us just wanna go home mentally. This is one hell of a trip.
Shitty things just don't come once....
Ya, shit just don't visit me just once, it comes the whole freaking day.
Am preparing for the interview this afternoon. This is one job that I want pretty badly, something that I like to do. Got myself prepared, dress nicely and head for the hotel where the interview is held. I was shortlisted, so I shouldn't be waiting like wat the rest of the applicants is doing. However, the HR personnel screwed up and treated me like the normal applicants and made me wait for one bloody hour. After informing the lady, i finally go to the interview room. Mok is the one interviewing me. Since he already know what I'm doing in the lab, he said he don't have much questions for me. However, I screwed up at other questions, like those stupid default questions like "where do you see yourself in the next 10 years?" NB, wat kind of question is this? So what if I can give you a beautifully portrayed answer, it doesn't mean that I'll be wat I'll be in the next 10 years. In my opinion, that's a stupid question. The interview is just a short 10 minutes one, compared to my colleague's which is 30 mins long, got the second interview and got the job offer. Guess I'm screwed for this job for now. T_T
After this whole thing, I and hilary went to Fangs' place to do the recording of drum track for our song. It's about time that we start to do something about the band and its future. Second shitty thing happened, the laptop program is not working as it should! In addition from the earlier event, this thing had got me pretty pissed off. After working out for the next 2 hours, finally got it to work, but then, everyone is tired. When trying to record the drum, Fangs' drum recording is not up to expectation. In the end, we stopped the recording as it's near midnight and I need to wake up at 5am for the Mersing trip the next day. Nothing is recorded, and that's the shitty part.

Walan eh..... use the desktop PC halfway crashed and it's an unrecoverable crash! Godamit, think the bios in the motherboard is screwed and now there's no way for me to figure out the way to restore the main bios using the backup bios chip.
No choice, in the end I had to email to Gigabyte to seek their advise, and if wat I get is bad news from them, that means my pocket is gonna burn a hole again T_T

Today had a dinner with Kopihouse dudes and Dez. Good to see some new faces like Ramius, Quester and Cosair. They're a total different image as I had projected them to be.... no surprise anyway....During the dinner, Ramius was constantly teased by the rest of us about he has a thing for Hotcystal... of course, we know it's only a joke but since it's the catalyst for a good fun dinner, why not.
Ramius is a tall giant yet very gentle in body language but very very cheeky in his words.... after Dez, he the second person to cause the most laughter in the group. Nice guy and well mannered nevertheless. Quester, also known as Colourwolf, is a guy that don't fit his cyber image. In real life, he is a very quiet and passive person, and if nobody talked to him, he'll keep very very quiet. I initiated a conversation with him and found that he's pretty easy going and very matured in his thinking. Cosair, aka Goliath, is a young chap who behaved younger than he is but overall is a nice fellow too.
After the dinner, we went to a coffee cafe to continue the chatting session. There Dez kept making a lot of jokes which keeping Amy laughing non-stop and coupled with Ramius' sick yet entertaining taunts, the whole group broke into laughter throughout the session. Amy laughed the loudest and we kept telling her that the laughing will keep her slim much faster muahahaha.
Soon after, everyone gonna split as most (in fact all) had to work the next day. I reached home pretty soon since I lived pretty close to where I was located. Back home, I updated my WAP site, creating new sections to improve the site and create a new metal ringtone from Slipknot and posted it up to share with everyone.

After sleeping for more than 10 hours, now I'm feeling pretty fresh. And it's about time to start the recording.
The drum track is done yesterday and today I shall sample the MIDI track into audio format. The sampling took me quite a while and Rudy called in the midst of my work, saying the DOD final is today and the guys will be there. So I prepare myself after the sampling and head off to the competition ground. This is my first time seeing a DOD competition and finally got the chance to see the skills of those real good players. Fing also told me about the current stupid politics going on with the SGDOD people. Super bo liao, DOD is only a game and people can get so serious over it.
At the same time, PAGN is promoting RayCrash, a new multiplayer game and so the rest of us register for the game. We got a feel of this new game and although it's not very difficult to learn the game, it's not easy to master the game. Nevertheless we had our fun here and soon after we split and I head home to continue where I left off.
Now that the drum and string tracks are laid down, it's time to lay down the bass and guitars. Damn, I'm not a bass player nevertheless and had lots of difficulties playing with fingers. In the end, I used pick playing as an alternative. Less smooth but it beats getting inconsistent playing throughout the song. Even the guitars posed much difficulties. Due to lack of practising the song, I had much difficulties putting them down perfectly, and in the end I'll just go with the feel and put them in layered format, not entirely perfect but still passable to normal listener.
Second song is slightly easier as it's only 2 guitars with trem and chorus effects. However since it's clean playing, any mistakes will be easily noticed. After much tries, the song is finally done. As the third song requires an acoustic guitar and the time is pretty, I postpone the recording of the third song to tomolo when the time is more suitable to record acoustic guitar

Today is a pretty cloudy day. I was supposed to go to Sentosa for a good sun tan session but seems that the screwed up weather is not gonna fulfil my wish....
Oh well, I went to the island anyway. I had given my word to go. Anyway, I had to take a break from racking my brain over Yun's compositions. I had to record and mix down 3 songs within 4 days and minus the working time, I don't have much time to produce a perfect but only a decent job.
Upon reaching the island, it was drizzling slightly but I still can have fun playing frisbie with Dewei and Joanne. It's been a long time since I had a good workout, so the frisbie and swimming did a lot of good to me.
When I reached home, the tiredness got into me and guess I had to call it a day and take a good rest and prepare to do the recording tomolo as my current mental state can't do much for the recording....

Today is just another usual weekend, nothing special...Working OT in the morning and left the office after noon.
I went to Peninsula Centre to get a cargo pant as the price is pretty much cheaper there. When I reached there, fwah, another guitar shop opened?!?!? that's like 3 guitar shops within the 50m radius... such ingenius business strategy huh...I move on to Edwin's shop, hoping to catch up with him and Steph for a while but alas his shop is closed. So I moved on to get my pants. Reached this pakistani shop and tried on the pants. It feels a bit baggy but this one is much better than the one I've tried earlier. Since it's made of cotton, I thought just get it and see if it shrink.
After the band practise, we are supposed to meet Charlie with the other MINDEF forum bikers. Before that, I head off to my buddy's house to return him the line filter and get back the Classic VCD as well. It just happened that the kitten Huisan picked up is there too... oh my fucking god!! it was soooooo adorable!!! I picked it up and put it in my arms and stroked its head until it slept in my arms! I was so tempted to bring it back home but I have my other 2 fatties to take care of (they're hamsters...hammies and cats don't mix :D)

Before that, I head off to my buddy's house to return him the line filter and get back the Classic VCD as well. It just happened that the kitten Huisan picked up is there too... oh my fucking god!! it was soooooo adorable!!! I picked it up and put it in my arms and stroked its head until it slept in my arms! I was so tempted to bring it back home but I have my other 2 fatties to take care of (they're hamsters...hammies and cats don't mix :D)
Muahaha, today is the first time I go to Karaoke with my band. The Partyworld voucher is expiring tomorrow so might as well go today since I had to go for lesson tomorrow. Fwah, this is the first time I sang almost 10 songs in a row! Thank god I didn't lose my voice from that :p
When we were singing halfway, dunno is it that our voice too powerful when we were singing "The Power of Love", the power went out halfway? We were like "Huh?" and just then, she called. There wasn't a worse time as I can't barely hear her for many people are walking about due to the power outrage. Shortly after, the waiter told us the power in the entire neighbourhood was wiped out and that's all for the day. In compensation for our disappointment, they gave us 2 vouchers and we were not required to pay for this session... We were like, "Woah!! Free KTV session today huh!" However, we'll prefer to continue with the session. In the end, we settled to chill out at the nearby Prata shop. When we moved out, everything was pitch dark and riding around without street lights and traffic lights can be quite daunting, given sinkaporeans' driving attitude. Nevertheless, we made it to the shop and we bailed shortly after....

Days after watching Windstruck, its theme song is still lingering in my head. That's it, I'm gonna put it down in MIDI and use it as ringtone and also share the good music with everyone on my WAP site.
It took me half the evening to get the music down in MIDI. Although it's not professionally done (I ain't a pianist)but I think it can pass.

Went to watch Windstruck 野蠻師姐tonight....alone as usual. Actually wanted to watch another day but I just can't wait to watch it. Since My Sassy Girl, I have been watching movies directed by Kwak Jae Yong, which also includes The Classic. His style of movies always includes laughter, sadness and happiness. The first 2 movies had always touched me a great deal, almost moved me to tears...in fact they did moved me to tears. This movie still didn't disappoint me as it still stirred the similiar emotions in me. I really feel that it's one movie which the money is well spent.
After yesterday's teahouse outing, there's another forum outing today: Yaya's BBQ cum Hazelyn's birthday celebration. As I have band practise today, I will be the latest person to arrive at the pit, and I did.
Today's band practise isn't that great either. Hilary had been held back by work and cannot make to the jam at the last minute. Damn, that means we'll be practising without a bassist. Wat to do, call of duty :rolleyes:
After the session, we chill for a while before Damien gave me a ride to the BBQ venue and from there I slowly walked to the pit. When I reached there, most of the people had left, including DC and Monty. I had wanted to meet Monty in person for I believe he's not as bad as he seems in the forums. Except for Marl, Dez and Vanilla_Sky, the rest are new to me. I've finally met Yaya, Hazelyn, Black Angel, Blue Marlin, Aniky (who came all the way from KL), Cat and Moody. As I expected, Marl and Dez told me that he's basically a normal old man who is pretty polite. Wished I could arrive earlier, but then if we're fated to meet, we will meet. By the time I arrived, everyone is about to get back home but since Dez brought some liquor, he decided to stay behind and drink with me. Boy, that was the first time I had a long talk with him man, and found that he's someone that can keep you occupied should one needs someone to talk to.

Today the Teahouse dudes are meeting up for dinner at Sakae Sushi. I didn't attend the dinner for I'm damn broke to indulge in such dinner. So I decided to meet them after their dinner.
I first bring my colleagues to the sinseh I visited not long ago so they can consult him on their ailments. I was glad that they were satisfied with the sinseh's acupuncture skills and after that we parted. Coz I need to go back grab the tank bag for Rudy where I will meet him with the rest of the teahouse ppl.
After grabbing the tank bag, I proceed to meet them at the street where they are moving to a cafe to chill out. Maybe we haven't met each other for a long time, I do feel kind of distant when I meet the dudes up. Although not that bad, but still there's a bit of that feeling lingering.....

Today is not a very good day for the family. Dad had sprained his leg, and mom had been vomitting & having diarrhoea since she came back from the wedding dinner. I keep urging her to go hospital and consult a doctor for I suspected that she's suffering from food poisoning. She refused, insisting that she's ok. I stayed up until 5am before I slept for about 2 hours when I was awaken by my dad's voice. I quickly woke up and see if she's ok. To my horror, she's still in pain and my brother told me that she don't want to let me know so i can bring her to hospital. But fuck, this kind of condition how am I supposed to go to work? I woke my brother up and told him I'm sending her to hospital, whether she like it or not. I quickly wash up and then I found that my necklace is tangled up with my dragon pendant. The whole situation and this necklace had got me so fustrated that I just break the chain and throw it away, keeping the pendant only.
Upon reaching the hospital, thank god that the place is pretty empty so I can get her admitted pretty fast. After some checkup, the doctor directed her to the observation room where she get her injection and medication. Shortly after, the medication took its effect and she started to sleep soundly. My brother and I then went for breakfast since we have not been eating anything earlier. We hanged around the cafeteria for a hour plus, then we went back to see how she's doing. It was a good news that she don't need to be admitted into the hospital means it's not that serious. After finishing the procedures, we finally head our way home.
However, things have not settled down yet. After sending mom back home, there's one more person to attend to: my dad. I wanted to bring him to the sinseh near my place who is very effective in his profession so I went to check out if it's open (it's only 10 plus in the morning). After checking with the store next door, I go to know that it won't be opened until 11am. So I go back first and wait for the shop to open. However the lack of sleep had got into me and I though to myself that maybe I can catch a few moment's wink.
Next thing I know, I woke up at 3pm!!! Holy fuck! I only applied for half day leave and now I've overslept plus I haven't bring dad to the sinseh yet. So I get my brother to bring dad to the sinseh while I rush to my workplace....
Out of every 5 times I use the MRT system, there will be at least 3 times I would get off the train pissed. The reason why I'm pissed is those fucking stinkaporeans. While taking a train back home, the train is pretty crowded, so the seats are all taken. At one station, an old uncle boarded the train and the poor man had to squeeze his way into the cabin coz these fucking stinkaporeans are refusing to move towards the centre of the cabin. After the uncle got his hold on the supporting pole, I was staring at this young chap in his twenties sitting on one of the seats. Obviously this guy knows that the old man is standing near but yet he acted blur and pretend to go to sleep, KNNCCB, I wonder if the local education got teach any moral values into this young mutherfucker.

This morning incident is considered quite an adventure. We are scheduling for a spin at the track but Damien's bike tyre is ruptured shortly after we passed the customs. Best of all, this is JB, where tyres for big bikes are like gems here. Since it's still pretty early, we pushed the bike to one of the bike shop and wait for it to start business. In the meantime, we pluck out the culprit from the tyre: a metal sheet. It punched a 1-inch hole into the tyre, rendering it impossible to patch. When the shop opened, as what we expected, the shop did not have the tyre we want. However, the boss suggested us to find the tyre for them and recommended one shop for us to try our luck. True enuff, the shop do have a used one but under this desperate situation, what kinda choice do we have? After much bargaining, Damien finally settled on RM400. This price is a super rip off as this amount can get you a brand new tyre! But lan lan, that's the only tyre that fits his bike. So after the payment, we head back to the shop and the mechanics are very careful with Damien's bike, which impress me a lot. They tried their best to help get the bike on track again and after paying for the labour, we decided to continue on to the track circuit, although the weather didn't look optimistic. True enuff, we ran into a real heavy rain and by the time we reached the circuit, the weather is drizzling over there and we were utterly wet. As the time slot is for the car practise at that moment, we thought that we still have a chance after the car practise should the rain stop soon. The cars would probably then helped dry up the tarmac and it will be dry enuff for us to go for a spin. But alas, the rain gets heavier and soon the road is totally wet, which means it's too dangerous for us to go down. The cars, however, continued on and when we got the feedback from the drivers, we know that we won't be able to go down on the track anymore. Oh well, since there's no hope of going down track, we decided to go back home and meet up later at Peace Centre to check out some music gears.
We finally meet up in the evening and I go to City Music to collec the gig bag for my POD unit. For that, I got $100 poorer but at least I can bring my POD unit around with ease now. There was a guitar promotion going on too and a Fender Strat caught my eyes. Fuck, that guitar's specification is exactly what I always been looking for in a fender. It was selling at $1200. I suddenly had this urge to sell my current Fender just to get this one man. But then I have to fix the volume and tone pots first as they're pretty stiff and not working well right now. At Sinamex, I was checking out this KRK studio monitor speakers and this V4 model really caught my ears. The sound was very crisp and bass is deep and tight. Yesh, time to save up for this baby ;)
After that, we decided to go and watch Day After Tommorrow. This is the second time I've watched this movie but I liked this movie so I don't mind watching it again. After all these, sianz, time to rest for I need to go back work the next day......

Choices
From the day I come into this world
I'm faced with choices
Choice of sleeping or choice of eating
But I don't have the choice of whether I'm willing to come into this world
As I grow older, there's more choices in place for me
I can chose to play on my own or to play with my neighbours
I can chose to draw my ideas on used paper or just do origami on them
But I can't chose to grow up faster
As I move into my teens, I still face choices
I can chose to skip classes
I can chose to join any ECAs that I like
But I can't chose to skip exams
Now,
I chose to be misunderstood by others but chose not to explain the truth
I chose to lose friends from the lack of explanation
I chose to dissappoint others who had done no wrong to me
I chose to be a escapist
I chose to be a bastard
I chose to be a jerk
But
I can't chose not to regret some of the choices I've made
I can't chose not to be too soft-hearted
I can't chose to have someone by my side when I need them most
I can't chose to have a job of my dream
I can't chose to have someone whom I'll care dearly for
I can't chose not to be childish most of the times despite my age
Life is just full of choices, joys....and regrets

Just received a email from John, he asked me if I'm interested to join his newly formed company, dealing with multimedia and sound. I was telling myself, it was a dream come true as it's been my dream to work in this field. However there comes a dilemma; I'm comfortable with current job, as the engineer I worked with had been teaching me a lot of things, and I wanna repay him by helping him through the project. Think I'll need quite some time to make a decision that I won't regret.
After a long day at work, I figure I could indulge myself in a movie. So there I go, booked a ticket and watch a movie right after work. The movie was very good and I feel that the price of the ticket is indeed well spent.
I don't know why, it could be a surge of loneliness or the fustration of losing my hair, been feeling very edgy about almost everything, resulting in pissing ppl off. Ah fuck, maybe a good sleep will just ease everything down.

Today LF came to the office and visit us, knowing the seriousness of the situation in our office. A and E, 2 of the most senior staffs, is leaving the company, leaving only me and Kris with a bunch of newbies. Soon, we won't have "Fatimah" to fill our water bottles and let us disturb her. She felt reluctant to leave at first, saying that she wanted to stay coz of the guys here. I told her if she's staying for the wrong reason (the guys and not the work) then it's better that she take up the other job offer.
LF passed me the appointment letter for my permanent status conversion. After a year of working for the company, I am finally converted to permanent staff. However, knowing LF's style, I took a glimpse at the appointment letter.... What the fuck?!?!?! The "increment" that she mentioned is only a meagre 50 bucks?!?!?! Such sincerity... Feeling disappointed, I told her I wanna read thru the contract before signing it.
On the way home, I read thru the contract and as I expected, it's filled with loopholes. where's the clause for AWS? How much AWS am I supposed to get? there's other details that are missing and she expect me to sign this? Crazy! At this age, I should have the common sense how not to get makan by ppl. Nevertheless I'll be writing an "inspiring" email to her soon and at the same time, prospect hunting is on again.

Today was pretty normal day... work is starting to pile up, deadline is getting real close and the turnover rate is getting higher by the day. Not a bad thing after all, since having work to do will keep me occupied. Of course, on and off, I'll surf the forum just to de-stress a bit, especially when I can get to whack some ppl *evil grin*
So thru the forum, Dady jio ppl for KTV and at the same time I also feel the urge for a KTV session so I asked if I could join along. Surpriseingly, she didn't reject me and asked me to get her number from Lemon. However, I asked Damien along since he's living nearby and Dady have no problem with it.
Upon reaching the KTV place, I met Dady for the first time. Like what Lemon had described, she looked lian-ish, but looks are looks, I don't judge her by it. Thru the session, I find her to be a nice person, she's very considerate towards others. Boy came shortly after, and it's getting better by the minute. It seems that Boy and Dady are very good friends since they were pretty intimate with each other and Boy ah, KNN, sad already still go chose those super sad Wang Jie songs....

Oh well, the week, once again, had been routine with minimal excitement which means, there's nothing to write for the week.. Maybe the only thing I can write is the event where I got to know that D had expressed his feelings about D. Well, it comes as no surprise to me coz I anticipate that kind of thing to happen. However, since the 2 buggers are adults, they should be able to handle this issue in a proper manner without affceting the friendship.
Nevertheless, I went to do some tarot card reading for myself. As for the question in mind, it's for me to know for and others to find out.
Universal 6 Cards
how you feel about yourself now (The Hierophant)
You feel a need for advice or wise council or perhaps spiritual consolation. Someone, or perhaps immediate events, will provide moral and practical guidance. Perhaps you are considering being such a tutor, counsellor or spiritual advisor? You desire the tried and tested traditional values, so when considering your options, this approach will prove wiser than adopting an unconventional novel approach. For example, marriage is more likely to be your desire than a living together situation.
what you most want at this moment (The Moon)
The cards suggest Johnny, that what you most want at this time is some clarity and less of these confused emotions that leave you fearful and vulnerable. You want to know the outcome, because you are so unsure about how you feel. Use your intuition to guide you away from any deception and ride this out - it will turn out alright in the end. The Moon is a good omen if you are in a clandestine affair.
your fears (The High Priestess)
You are feeling uneasy and insecure, something in your gut is saying ‘be careful, all is not as it seems’ - something just doesn’t feel right. If so, delay any decisions or actions until you have answered your concerns. If male this could signify a significant woman in your life being a bad influence.
>> I wonder who will that be.....
what is going for you (The Fool)
This is an exciting time with much potential for fun and good times. Your confidence should be high, it's a great time for new possibilities. If you are considering leaving your job, home or relationship, in time you will. An unexpected desire will be fulfilled, even before you express it!
what is going against you (The World)
As always, fear holds us back and so often leads to missed opportunities. Do not give up or change direction this late in the game just because you have experienced delays - stick with it, have faith and trust the universe, and you will reach the successful conclusion you are wanting.
outcome (The Lovers)
Love is coming into your life even if you really can't see where from at this time. If you are on your own a new lover will soon enter your life. If you are in an unhappy relationship you have a choice to make - go with your heart, take the risk, greater happiness is ahead of you.

Today is my first day back to work after 2 weeks of "vacation". Going into the office with a heavy heart after what I heard from Krist and Andy. In the end, things don't as bad as it seems and everyone's seems to be at peace working their own projects. Either I had been smoked or the situation described to me had been exaggerated. Nevertheless, glad to see that everything's ok but it do ring something in my head: Never ever believed whoever in this office.
During lunch, my xuemei called me. She asked wat had happened to me....I'm glad that she is concerned about me but what can happen to me? She thought something had been troubling me for I didn't contact her for a while but I've reassured her so issue resolved...
I have been feeling uneasy the whole day. Yes, it's because of my backaches and it's time for some maintenance. I've asked SBG for an address of a sinseh she known. Thankfully, she replied in time but when I checked the street directory, fwah, I see also blurred. In the end, I gave up and try locating the one I'd visited years ago. At least I can still roughly guess the location. Nevertheless, really appreciate SBG's help. With minimum effort, I finally found the clinic and I was the only patient there so there's no waiting. I told the sinseh and he did the rubbing and the best part, realign the bones on my neck. The sound of bones cracking never failed to get me high! He did some additional rubbing on some accupoints on my back and after the session I do feel much better.

Hmmm... it's been 2 weeks since I last post a blog and I see a totally revamped interface at blogger.com. A refreshing look indeed. Just to make up for the "lost" 2 weeks, this may be one long entry.... Blooger.com, don't hang on me!!! :D
Finally my ICT is finally over, when I first go for the in-processing, I was kinda totally lost since it was my first training in a new unit since my release from military. New place, new faces and no one that I know is in this camp. 70% of the time in my first day is just pure travelling, from one camp to another and then go to another camp where I'll be settled down over there. From that kind of travelling, half of my tank is practically used up. Once I've settled down, I was orientated on the job scope that I was assigned to. It's pretty stress-free from the look of it. However, on the first day, I was down with a pretty bad flu, and been sneezing the whole day. And it took me 3 days to recover from it, so most will imagine the amount of tissues I've used up.....
One of the days, my colleague Eileen called up and later I chatted with my "boss" Krist (called him boss coz he took care of our stuff, not our real boss keke) and found out that Moi had been suffering from "PMS" since the first day I'm gone. Best of all, I heard I was backstabbed by her as she pushed all the blame to me just when I'm not around. This was confirmed when I met Andy during the CCNA class and told me about the same thing. Sad to say, things in the office are not the same anymore. As much as I don't wanna get involved with the stupid politics in the office, it just caught up with me. Well, I'll see what is gonna happen in office when I go back.... maybe I should switch on my BASTARD mode and make some hell for those who wanna play politics with me....
Yesterday was the last day of my training, where me and my fellow NSmen won't see each other for at least one year. In the morning, I've been feeling shitty, body aching all over. Ok, I can endure the pain, thinking that the aching will go away soon. However, it just got worse by the hour. I touched my forehead, ok leh, not hot wat, so I thought it's only just aching only. During the happy hour, everyone is having fun and that was the time when I feel that I am in a unit. The worse part is when I going to leave the camp and head for home. Riding was a torture for me as head is spinning and body is painful. when home, I quickly bath and head for the bed, maybe some rest will make me better. When my mum came back from work, she touched my forehead and said that I'm running a high fever! Holy fuck, I can't even feel the heat on my forehead then that must be pretty serious. So bo bian, she passed me 2 "power" capsules and I went to rest and after a night of sweating, I feel better this morning but still weak from it. What I worry is that I hope the fever won't affect my hearing as hearing for me is very very important. Guess I'll take a few more days to fully recover from this crappy fever...

Heart pain day
Yes, thanks to fucking SAF, I have to let go something which I've hold on to for 2 years: my hair. I walked into the salon with a heavy heart and when the first stroke of the scissors go across the first batch of hair, *ouch!* that fucking hurts. That was the longest hair I've ever kept in my lifetime and probably won't get another chance to grow hair that long anymore.
What's made me feel more sian is that although I told the hair stylist that I want to cut the hair short, it doesn't mean THAT SHORT! Before I can say anything, she already snipped off my fringe and left only a very short length.... Nah beiz, now I need a few months to get the fringe back again.... KNN.

Wat a drag..
It's such a "cool" day. Early in the morning got into a verbal conflict with a senior tester. Ya, she's a bit anal many a times but I could understand why for she's doing it for the company. Many of the testers under me did not like her mainly becoz she's too straightforward to the point of bluntness. Nevertheless I managed to explain to them about her character so that they won't take her words personally. Then, all these project managers fucking cannot plan their timeline better or wat? they think the lab got unlimited human resources where they can get testers to attend to their projects on the ad-hoc basis?? Well, fuck them. The fucking hard truth is, we're bloody understrength and many of us are losing focus on their jobs for they are disrupted from their current testing from time to time and move on to another project, leaving the previous half-completed. These project managers and engineers better wake up their fucking ideas that our team has only so much ppl and if they push their luck any further, they better bet their sorry asses that I'll bite back.
After a loooong day work into the night, I headed down to Mdm Wong where the rest of the colleagues were down there. I had reservations about going there anyway since I'm feeling very very tired. I'm feeling tired from work, from band issues, from my reservist shit and many things else. Don't really feel like going at all but since they've waited for me, I don't think I wanna fly airplane. After all, I'm not DC. When I first entered Mdm Wong, the crowd was just right. Not too crowded and squeesy and managed to find a way to settle down.... but the thing is I can't really enjoy myself for I can't feel the mood to party. I do enjoyed the retro music played but I just don't feel like dancing. Maybe it's the increasing crowd that's putting me off. Or maybe it's the lack of sleep. Nevertheless, I left the place early when Hilary meets me outside the club. We headed off to Plaza By The Park to have supper since I've realised that I only had instant noodles for dinner at work. So we hanged around there for a while filling my stomach and then Cal pat on my back. I looked around and realised it's Lemon and Cal himself. And when I saw them, I just remembered that Lemon had asked me about going to newsroom where they went earlier but I forgotten about it. Best, I've forgotten to reply her message. But at least seeing them go off with a smile showed that they did enjoyed themselves at the clubbing session. Lucky I never go, or I'll most probably dampen the spirit with my current mental condition, which I must say it's like fuck.
And now, and few more hours' sleep before going back office to clear my shit.....

This is funny
Muahahaa, got this private message from SBG, telling that I kena complained for putting up an offensive avatar. When I read that, I just can't stop laughing.... which idiot really think that he's that fucking pure that he never swear or used that gesture before? Fucking swine....somemore said that I insulting some public organisation. Excuseh Mua, Must the word SAF means Singapore Armed Forces to you? can't it be addressing idiots like you as "Stupid Ass Faggot"??? Fwah, these people are really impossible. Nevertheless, I'll be back to the forum for more hell if I ever find out who's that asswipe.
Nevertheless, thank you idiot for making my day. I had a good laff indeed.

Holy Cow.....
Hmmm.... yesterday nite was a weird nite for me. I had a dream that I never had before.... I dreamt of Ann (What the fuck?!?!??!) Although in my dream, she dun looked like the one I knew (I had her photo) but somehow I feel that she's her. During the whole dream I tried to talk to her but words just can't seems to come out from my mouth....she was so close to me (we are in a group) but yet we're not talking to each other. Wat a fucking weird dream.....but then, that reminded me that we have not been talking to each other for more than 2 months. Was this a sign? Hmmm.... sounds like another inspiration for a new song.....
Today we've a new participant in out jamming session. It's Yun, a 21 year-old gal who is interested in singing for the band. Keke, I was expecting a rock chick but she was the opposite. She looked like the typical girl-next-door and if she walked on the streets, you'll never know that this gal digs into power metal bands. As usual, I dun really pin much hope on ppl coming to try out their vocals, so this is no exception as well. So in this case, I just play my own role as usual as a guitarist. At the end of the session, although her voice wasn't that "WOW!", but I must say with practise, she can sing pretty decently. I liked the way she sings Perfect Strangers, which she sang in her own style, and it's very nice. Hilary liked it too. We decided to give her another shot. Over dinner, she sounded very positive about the whole thing but still I don't pin much hope coz I told the rest that let's see if we will receive any "inspiring" email/sms in the next few days.
Been a while...
It's been a while since I last post a blog..... well this shows that my life for the past week had been pretty dull and unexciting... oh well, wat the heck, it's over anyway.
Just received a phonecall from my unit this afternoon, telling me that my request for deferment from reservist had been rejected. This means I'll be going for my reservist training in the coming weeks and that means... my hair of 2 years will be gone! Fuck man, SAF officers are just as fucked up as before. Been a regular for 6 years and had seen how these mutherfuckers worked and I had already guessed the outcome before they called me. Oh well, given my stubborn-ass character, I would be giving them the bo chap attitude during my stay there. They can't do anything to me anyway, at most fine me only.
Tomorrow morning will be the day I collect the article from the post office. The last one was a fright, thinking that it may be from Ann but luckily it's my MCSA's Certification package. This time, I'm kinda have a bad feeling about this. It may be really from her. It's been more than 2 months since we last communicate over the phone. I just have this feeling that she's angry with me for not calling her. I've been wanting to call her, only at the last minute I couldn't, either it's too late in night or the timing is not right (I know when to call her but I can't call when I'm outside.). I hope tomorrow, or rather later this evening, I can give her a call and have a good talk with her. If she wanna scold me, shout at me, I'll just take it coz it's my fault and furthermore, she's someone I once liked......

Pasir Gudang
Today is my first Pasir Gudang trip in like, one and a half year since I last went there. For the clueless, it's a place in Malaysia where the Johor Racing Circuit is located. Since I'm riding a sports bike and GuoBao had just finetuned my carbs which is running very well plus Hilary is eager for a track session, I thought it might be a good chance to go down there for some track action. I have been skeptical about going there on weekends for it may be crowded with ppl, I thought that I might just give it a shot. Damn, am I lucky..... the circuit was very quiet with only a few bikes there, so I can just ride round the laps without worrying about the space limitations. Everything was fun on the track until I found that my handlebar slider is loose and as I tried to hold the slider when riding, the slider dropped off from my handlebar! Oh My Fucking God! I quickly stopped my bike by the side and quickly go search for the slider in case it's in the middle of the road and someone runs over it and crash. After 15 min search, I only found the screw that secure the slider and that's it. Lan lan, now has to spend $$$ to get a new slider liao, haiz.
Compared to my last session, it seems that I more "hum chi" this time as after the session, I still leave a trail on the tyre known as "Wanker's Strip". So now I'm a true and blue wanker muahahaa!!!!
After the session we went to a petrol kiosk cafe where we had our brunch there before moving on to the Johor for bike washing and heading home.
By the time we're done, we've reached home at around 4pm and boy, we're really totally worn out!! Even when riding back, I can feel my legs starting to get cramps but thankfully I reached home safely. Shortly after, Hilary came over to my place and we go to Motoworld to check out a new helmet. My current helmet had been worn for more than 3 years and it's about time to change a new one, for safety's sake. Hilary, at the same time, check the racing suit. Boy, seems that he really getting addicted to track session liao muahahaha. In the end Hilary and I each bought a HJC full faced helmet at a discounted price :D
It's been a tiring day, and now it's about time for me to go koonz. Till then, It's slumber time :)

I Passed!!
Woohoo! Wondering is today is a good day to me.... Seems that things are going pretty well. First, after leaving work at lunch, I went to my bike shop to pay the loan and fix the carbs on my bike. After everything is done, wow! Just about time to go for my IPPT. Damn, I only started training on Monday so that means I only have 1 day of training muahahaha!!! When I reached there, you've guessed it, I'm the only moron with the longest hair. The Encik PTI keep looking at me and I think he cannot tahan the sight, he called me over and ask me to go cut my hair should I go for remedial training. Thank Hell, I've passed the test although my standard in 2.4km run had dropped drastically. However, my standards in other stations maintained pretty much keke... Since I've passed, I saw my result slip that I will get $100 incentive for passing the test. At least now, it's one load off my mind.
Secondly, my unit called me, informing that my ICT had formally been reduced by 1 week! So that makes my ICT 2 weeks only! Woohoo!!!
When I came back from IPPT, this agency personnel who sounded like a faggot to me, informed me that I have an interview tomorrow. KNN, throughout the conversation, this fucker is pretty sarcastic in his tone so for formal courtesy, I treat him with the same dose of sarcacism, which obviously he don't seems to get it. Ask me to wear tie for the interview? Siao! I go for interview as I am and the prospective employer is SUPPOSED to hire for who I am, not how I looked. I dress fucking nice, but work like fuck, no point rite? Anyway, I'm pretty half-hearted pertaining to this interview coz I think the pay is gonna be about the same....

Just got back home from a tiring day at work (yes, can't believe that I'm still fucking working on this holiday!!!!). When I go to my room I saw a piece of papr on my desk. It's a delivery notice from the Post Office. The notice stated that it is a bulky article. Hmmm.... I haven't been ordering anything bulky from overseas or locally.... just then I had this very bad gut feeling... In my mind I'm really hoping that this article do not come from Hong Kong. Why? Coz I haven't been in contact with her since my birthday and so far my SMS to her had not been replied. Being a very sensitive girl, I guess that she could have been angry with me for not picking up her call on several occasions. Wa Lau, she called on bad timings where I can't pick up the call so wat she expect me to do? And my phone cannot display overseas numbers, duhz! Meanwhile, I just keep my fingers crossed until I collect the article on Wed.....
One late entry...
Woohoo!!! I finally got my new guitar effect processor... errm or rather amp modeller. After using my RP12 for almost 7 years, I guess it's about time to change a new unit to get a even better sound than what I'm using now. After work I rided down to City Music to take a look at the PODxt which I've been checking out. I've been checking out other effects like GT6 and GNX3 and even used my other guitarist's GNX2. So far, the sound don't really blows me off. GNX is good, but when I tried tweaking it in the rental studio, the sound just don't appeal me. It's good, but it just not up to my taste. When I was checking out the PODxt, I tried some of the patches and wasn't very convinced by the sound. In my opinion, it sounded "weak". Maybe the guitar used is not that good either. What really makes me decide to get it in the end is when I tried the "Master of Puppet" patch which emulates Metallica sound and WOW! it IS really close! And since I'm gonna get something which I'll be using for years to come and won't wanna settle for less, I might as well get the unit. Of course it is not a cheap unit so you guess it, it really burnt a bloody big hole in my pocket!!! But if the unit's worth it, why not?
How I feel today.....
Runaway
曲：陶吉吉 | 詞：陶吉吉/娃娃
無名的怒火 有說不出的無力想敲打我自己
os:太陽快要下山了 什麼都不做 只拿著遙控器 一直不停的換台
麻木的神經 感覺自己像個機器快不能呼吸
os:快打開冰箱看看裡面的東西 唉~ 除了醬瓜什麼也沒有 算了吧 去外面吃吧
火辣的太陽 永遠在前方 無盡的公路 無盡的追求
我想要 run away run away 不想再懷疑自己對不對
甩開一切無所謂 run away run away
像困在霧裡 焦躁的想從茫然的現實中逃離
os:唉~ 想的太簡單了吧 你覺得你想做的都可以做得到嗎?
淡掉的感情 還堅持下去又有什麼意義
os:喂! 你拿著車鑰匙要去哪裡啊 你別忘明天還要上班呢 別在外面鬼混了
風吹亂頭髮 黑暗星空下 無盡的公路 無盡的自由
我需要 run away run away 不想再懷疑自己對不對
甩開一切無所謂 就快去 run away run away
我可以 run away run away 不想再懷疑自己對不對
是為自己不為誰 不在乎的 run away
很多人再說 不斷的一直說 必須這樣子做 不能夠那樣做
卻又沒有辦法在自己的生命中突破 oh ya~
如果再不走 就永遠不會走 別讓自己再回頭 沒掙扎怎能夠有自由 快走
現在就 run away run away 不想再懷疑自己對不對
甩開一切無所謂 run away run away
快點去 run away run away 不想再懷疑自己對不對
是為自己不為誰 不在乎的 run away
現在要 run away run away
今天要 run away run away
現在要 run away run away
今天要 run away run away

I was right yesterday.... I'm falling sick!!!!This morning reached office can smell something funny in the air, very nauseous type.... one colleague said it could be a dead rat, but dunno lah, fuck, I feeling my body aching all over and yet got to smell this kind of shit, definitely made my condition worse. Until mid morning, really cannot stand the smell so I took a breather by going to see a doctor. Doctor told me I had fever and advised me to rest at home. I told myself, if can tahan I try not to go, cos it seems that I've been taking MC every month (didn't know I'm that weak keke or is it the lack of rest?) But after lunch, I just couldn't stand it anymore so I decided to go back. After ckearing my stuff, I tot of taking some work back so I can do some of it IF I'm in the condition to do it.
On the way back, when I go buy lunch for myself (before taking medicine), I thought of getting a pair of hamsters for my mom, since that Sat she seems interested about them. In the end, I got 2 female hamsters (coz dun want them to breed) and put them into a nice cage, although it's old. And took some pics with my phone cam and here they are....
After that, I head for the bed, played the SPA music Lemon gave me (pretty effective huh) and knocked out until now.... After this, it's heading back to the bed AGAIN :D

Wat a Day....
Kaoz, waking at 6am in a Sunday morning?!?!?!? WTF??? keke.. yeah, I had to wake up at this time coz I'm having a motorbike trip to Kota Tinggi, Malaysia. As usual, I couldn't get up on time (in fact, I'm fucking late!!!) and got a very shitty ass feeling like my body's gonna collapse. No matter wat, I've gave them my word and so I had to go even though I'm not in the right condition to go (but I don't really give a fuck anyway). Once I reached Johor, I had a slight difficulty in looking for them at the desinated petrol station. After I found the right station, I realised that they're gone and Rudy messaged me to catch up with them FAST! Ok, I tried as fast as I could (not very fast anyway... it's only like 120km/h) and when I reached Kota Tinggi, I found them having brunch at a eatery cafe. And guess wat, I actually forgotten that they're riding there to go hiking, and best of all, I'm in riding gear and no casual wear *faints* So when we parked at the resort, with my body killing me, I told them that I'll join them in the hiking next round since I only desired to go home. After chilling out for a while at the cafe, I start up the bike and move off back to Sinkapore. Comes to think of it, this trip is like a solo trip for me since I'm alone on the road 90% of the time but surprisingly, I kinda enjoyed the trip, although I'm tired out when I reached home....
Felt like Shit
This morning I woke up, first thing to do when my brother got back, is to fix up the fixture for my new TV and DVD player ^.^ After fixing, this is how it looks in my room. Nice man.... keke....Now I can watch MPEG1 files and DVDs without powering up my PC muahahaha
Today is supposed to be the day for me to sleep until evening, but I had to wake up at 11am.... Why? Coz I had to go to Altron to mark the practical test answers the students had saved in their PCs. To my surprise, it was a quick affair as it only took me about 45mins. So I considered finished my marking? Fuck NO! I still gonna go back and mark the answer scripts and conclude the overall grade. But fuck, today really kinda of shitty... is it coz I'm feeling down them I feel tired or is it the other round? Watever it is, it just don't feel GOOD. Then I head on to Sim Lim square to get some components for my newly acquired Monitor plus getting the USB/COM Port convertor for my sis. In the end, got myself a new video card which supports dual displays as i need that for my recording PC. Things are much easier when I can see the mixer and tracks at the same time.
After I go back and dump the load into my room, I head off to Chinatown for KTV where we'll be celebrating Liquid's birthday. By the time I on the way to Chinatown, I'm half dead but then for Liquid's birthday celebration, must go must go!!! Muahaha! Tot of giving him a surprise but then his suspicion had killed the surprise element... oh well, we did enjoy the session anyway, especially with Lemon and Cal this 2 歡喜冤家around muahahaha!! Of course, not forgetting SBG, this is the first time I saw her and fwah, she IS tall!! She brought her cute little kid along who looked very bright, but alas, I'm too tired to have more fun than I did. KNN, somemore before I go and meet this guy to view the GT6, SBG asked her kid to hug me.... HUG ME?!?!?!?! She actually want a man with heart of stone to hug someone?!?!?!?! I rather she kill me. Muahahaha.
When I go meet Dave to view his multieffects unit, I was shocked that he brought out GT5!!!! Jesus Fucking Christ, tot we've been smsing each other stating "GT6" in the message number of times.... Damn wasted trip, and head on home after that where Hilary and Damien waited for me for few hours when I told them not to wait...Guess they really got no where to go... so they follow me up and we check out the Rush Drum Solo my student gave me. I was totally blown off by the drummer's feats!
Shortly after, they left my place and now, I have only less than 4 hours to sleep before I get up and go for the Kota Tinggi Trip.

Woohoo, finally it's the end of the class I was assigned to teach. The students seems very happy after the test and I'm very glad that they started making fun of each other at the end of the module. That's what I had wanted them to be in the first place.
After the lesson, called Barry so as to meet him to go to Zombie with the Jason, Justin, Leong and Brandon. However, he didn't pick up the call and after the second try, since I remembered that Edwin did ask about arranging program and he mentioned that Allen and Michael is coming, I agreed without a second thought coz Michael is leaving for US soon and God knows when he'll be back again. The other gang can meet or dun meet at all, I was never close to them in the first place *shrug* Hanged around the shop for a while until when Edwin came, he brought us to a guitar shop where I met Kerk, the guitarist I played with years back. Oh well, he's still as patronising as ever (or that's the way he treats ppl, watever, do you think I give a fuck?) when I asked him if I could try the V-Amp. Oh well, never interested in buying anyway but that was a good way to test him and prove my point rite.
When Hilary arrived, we head off for a drink to celebrate Edwin's birthday, which I only knew that evening (Arrghhh! If I knew earlier, I could get something for him!). We went to Embargo to drink where I first tasted a new german beer called Hoegarrden. The taste was good and smooth, unlike any other beer. Edwin is the most jialat one, ppl around him kept ordering those jialat liquors like Tequila Neat and Graveyard, just to get him drunk. Tell you, Edwin's a fucking good drinker and under all these abuses, even he also cannot take it and finally he knocked out after he puked. Everyone's bought him a drink and I felt guilty that I didn't get anything drink for him. Luckily I didn't order or he'll land himself into deeper shit. We slowly helped him to grab a cab and from there we split up. Phew, wat a nite... it's pretty enjoyable coz it's been a while since I actually spent quality time with these worthwhile friends.

Woohoo, today got Soiled Sale at my workplace! Shopping time! Ok wat's a soiled sale? It's a sale for our staff to purchase our company's products which could be rejected, serviced or display sets. It comes with 3 months' warranty so if any problem within that period, you can get back a full refund. All the items are selling at "Tiao Lao" prices, mostly less than half the retail price. hehe, I got my 15" TV for $150! Ok you may think wah, so expensive but hey, it comes with 3 external inputs, Dual Sound selection feature and Teletext and best of all, it's a household brand. Wat's more can you ask for???? In the end, I got myself 1 15" TV and 1 17" PC monitor. And for all these I only spent $300.... cool huh?
Song of Lonliness
寂寞的季節
風吹落最後一片葉 我的心也飄著雪
愛只能往回憶裡堆棧 oh~ 給下個季節
忽然間樹梢冒花蕊 我怎麼會都沒有感覺
oh~ 整條街 都是戀愛的人 我獨自走在暖風的夜
多想要向過去告別 當季節不停更迭 oh~
卻還是少一點堅決 在這寂寞的季節
艷陽高照在那海邊 愛情盛開的世界
遠遠看著熱鬧一切 oh~ 我記得那狂烈
窗外是快枯黃的葉 感傷在心中有一些 oh~
我瞭解 那些愛過的人 心是如何慢慢在凋謝
多想要向過去告別 當季節不停更迭 oh~
卻還是少一點堅決 在這寂寞的季節
又走過風吹的冷冽 最後一盞燈熄滅
從回憶我慢慢穿越 在這寂寞的季節
還是寂寞的季節 一樣寂寞的季節
風吹落最後一片葉 我的心也飄著雪
愛只能往回憶裡堆棧 oh~ 給下個季節
忽然間樹梢冒花蕊 我怎麼會都沒有感覺
oh~ 整條街 都是戀愛的人 我獨自走在暖風的夜
多想要向過去告別 當季節不停更迭 oh~
卻還是少一點堅決 在這寂寞的季節
艷陽高照在那海邊 愛情盛開的世界
遠遠看著熱鬧一切 oh~ 我記得那狂烈
窗外是快枯黃的葉 感傷在心中有一些 oh~
我瞭解 那些愛過的人 心是如何慢慢在凋謝
多想要向過去告別 當季節不停更迭 oh~
卻還是少一點堅決 在這寂寞的季節
又走過風吹的冷冽 最後一盞燈熄滅
從回憶我慢慢穿越 在這寂寞的季節
還是寂寞的季節 一樣寂寞的季節
The Shit just gets better by the day....
Oh great, fucking great..... first, casual conversation all went wrong. Then, vocalist left the band. And now, losing a friend. Hmmm, Shit just can't get any better.... Out of friendship, I went to friendster and try to add Leong into my list of friends.... only to know today that my request had been rejected!!! Maybe I had not been a good friend to him at all, or I'm no longer good enuff to be his friend, or watever. We had our fun together in the past and those are one of my happier days but now, things had turned out this way. Maybe he has better reasons to do that in Friendster, but this event really makes me think: Friendship can be as frail as a wine glass. Oh well, I've gotten enuff shit to think further about this issue and since that's the way things go, so be it. Maybe friendship isn't worth treasuring after all, coz in the end, I end up with none anyway. I don't think I deserve any friends as I hasn't been a good one to them anyway. Sometimes it's always better to alone.... no heartaches, no disappointment toward myself, and everyone's happy. For those who appreciated me as who I am, I'm deeply grateful for I'll always remember them and for those who don't, FUCK THEM.
That's it
Ya, that's it. We're now without a vocalist.... once again. This evening we went down to his place, trying to convince him to stay. He explained that it's not that he sick of music but rather he don't like being in the limelight aka backstage player. Based on that reason, we know that we can't keep him any longer and thus we let him go... Oh well, back to square one again..... start to search for a new vocalist once again -_-"
Keke, while I'm enjoying my lunch nap in the office, I got a SMS message from Lemon, asking me if I'm feeling better today. Orrrh, that's so nice and sweet of her to show such concern for me.... oh wait, walau eh, I can't believe I'm saying this man *goosebumps*. Can't believe a hard-hearted person like me is saying that!!! Muahahaha...
Browsed the websites for guitar effects and is eyeing the Line6 PodXT effect processor but guess the price will be in the range of $700 and above.... Godamnit, I won't be looking at this if my RP12 is still working fine X(

Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition
This evening after my teaching lesson and I reached home, ready to check emails and do some chatting until I see this one particular mail from my band's vocalist. He indicated that he wanted to quit the band, citing that it's due to musical difference and lack of passion on his part. Below is an extract of the mail:
i was quite confuse when i went home dat day.Remember when we try to choose a new song to play, at Xgrind's hse? the band seems to enjoy most of the songs...but i was kind of...tinking to myself...Oh no, why i don't like most of them....from here, i know i'm the odd one out...I believe dats probably why u guys can play together for so many years..bcuz the band share almost the same direction...
I can understand, as musicians,its nice to play fast n technical stuffs..it helps u improve alot on skill n technic...so i know how important it is for a musician to choose the direction he wants to progress... I love to play guitar all my life too..but i don't play as good...but i really have a dream to play my own music..wif me singing n playing guitar...its also unfair to ask the band to fulfill my own dream n my own kind of music...i hope u guys can understand my point of view...its like asking the band to play romatic love songs for example...a few times its ok...for a few years??? ....the band should have its own charactor...for Xconxept, metal is the base...for me, old time chinese rock kind of music is already in my blood,so i can play english heavy metal for a while,but i can't do dat for long.... :(
I choose to leave now bcoz,i know in future,the same problem for me will surface again for sure...n i also would not want the band to spend too much time on me...its unfair for the band if we start to prepare for gigs or recording....
However, i'm really enjoying myself wif the band during the past few mths,n I can't find any fault in u guys as friends....even if i'm not playing wif the band,i hope u guys still regards me as your friend...frankly,i don't really care wats next for me...my main concern is for the band to understand me...i let the band down,n i don't feel good as well...
It seems to me that he is experiencing the downs of his life and he's trying to get out of everything he is in right now. Fuck, I also never said that he dun sing well or things like that, KNN and now just giving me this kind of shit. Of course, I wrote a reply to him, listing down the reasons why he should stay and right now I really hope that he can respond to it positively. This mail had really affected my mood and I wonder if I have the mood to work... This is really fucked up beyond all recognition.

Today's a pretty normal day... not very exciting though. Not much mishaps in work today except one occasion when one of my colleague said something which kinda put me off. I was doing the database to ease another colleague's workload, then this one commented that this kind of work should be done outside official working hours. My reply to her is, "Shen Jin Bing! (crazy)". Fuck, work is work, after working hours is MY OWN fucking time, who's gonna pay me for doing this? She got time to hang around after work to do extra work but I dun have time for this shit man. So I ignore her and continue my stuff and finally finished it. Damn, I can be quite heck care huh....
After work, went to the workshop to change my bike wheel. It's been 2 years since I last changed it and it's better to change before the tyre loses its grip...hmmm...it felt better to ride on the new tyre now... maybe it's just a psychological effect :p
Went back home, and prepare the MP3 for the next cover song and upload it up to our web server for them to download. Nothing much actually until I sent the mail out to them with a little spice of sarcasism... naughty me huh? But if that can spur them to do something about the current problem, guess it's worth it somehow

Power Shine
Wow, spent the whole day at Sentosa's Siloso Beach (well, almost the whole day :p), getting BBQed like a skewed chicken on a plot of salty sand... I, Lemon and Cal met up just before noon in order to get that most out of the sunshine. I had been wanting to go for the suntan for a while since I looked like a loser drug addict when I looked fair.
When we reached there, I was kinda put off by the crowd at the beach as there's a Family Day event going on.. ARRRGGGHHH!!! I hated crowds as I tot I can have some peaceful suntanning moments on the beach. Luckily, the event didn't lasted very long so after an hour or so, the event ended and the beach is back to its peaceful state. The weather is just wat I've wanted, clear sky with tons of sunbeams. The whole suntanning session was very fruitful (although not exciting... well how exciting can suntanning gonna be anyway???), at least everyone got wat they want..almost everybody since 2 of them got more than wat they bargain for muahaha!!!!
About late afternoon, Liquid came down with his female friend, Jenny. Though the sun is almost going into the setting phase, I guess that they did got some decent amount of tan they want, coz shortly after, the weather turned for the worse and soon, we got a heavy shower. Luckily we got into Liquid's car before it happened so we're spared from getting drenched. And since we're moving out of the island together, I tot that might as well forget about going to IKEA and head to Tiong Bahru Plaza which we've decided for dinner. Liquid suggested Thai Express which I felt that the food is decent but the service and price is not that appealing. Nevertheless, we did enjoyed the dinner but it's kinda quiet for I guess that most of us are pretty tired from the beach activity....After that, we go for a little shopping where I finally got myself the Limited Edition DVDs for LOTR:FOTR and can return my buddy's to him. Ok, that concludes the day.... oh wait.. it seems that I haven't used a single F word in today's blog... that's so un-Xgrind muahahaha.... maybe I felt too relaxed that I can't be bothered to use it kekeke....meanwhile back to my fucking work on Monday!!! Muahahaha!

Ah Crap.....
Fuck, today is not a pretty good day, although it's not that bad.... Why? Coz inthe day during the practise session with the band, my RP12 went noisy ONCE AGAIN!! ARRGGGHHH I was about to try the new patches I've made in the afternoon to see if the sound fits the Fender guitar... it was ok when I was the tweaking the patches at home and when I bring it to the studio... KNN! Bo bian, just can't continue playing with all that irritating noise in the processor (although our music is as irritating to some but trust me, this one's worse -_-)
All is well after that until when the rest of us went to my place to choose the next song to cover.... fuck we just take out CDs from my racks and keep on suggesting songs but no one just wanna fucking make a decision on wat song to cover. Fuck in the end, I just say, "since vocalist want this song and everyone say it's managable, then we'll just take this song huh? SET!" Sometimes I just kinda put off by some lack of enthusiasm shown in the band, making me thinking of doing my own solo project..... oh well this ain't the first time already -_-"
When I meet up with Rudy and his gf, I regreted toking too much as I've brought up a topic that I shouldn't have. In the end, I feel like I've badmouthed Lim even though that's isn't my intention. Fuck man, dunno wat's the fucking problem with me, why can't I just find a better topic to tok about??? Can see from hirari's expression that he dun seemed to be happy toking about it. Sometimes I really hate myself for that. Guess I should keep my fucking blabbering mouth shut so I won't say anything that I'll regret later. Think I should take some drastic measures from now on.....
Time to sleep now, think too much also won't help anything....

Tarot Reading
Can't believe I tried this shit.....Oh well, just post for sake of someone's request...
how you feel about yourself now (The Hermit)
You may be feeling lonely at this time or going through a period of introspection. If you are struggling to find answers to your questions give it time, they will come. This is a time for prudence and patience. If you have been unwell this is a time for rest and recuperation.
what you most want at this moment (The Hierophant)
The cards suggest Johnny, that what you most want at this time is to have someone around you that you can trust and confide in, knowing that they won’t let you down. There are moral issues here, knowing right from wrong, and you may feel that you need some advice or wise counsel from a teacher, priest, parent or someone you have a lot of respect for, in order to help you make the right decision.
your fears (The High Priestess)
You are feeling uneasy and insecure, something in your gut is saying ‘be careful, all is not as it seems’ - something just doesn’t feel right. If so, delay any decisions or actions until you have answered your concerns. If male this could signify a significant woman in your life being a bad influence.
what is going for you (Judgement)
Brand new potential, an opportunity which once given must not be ignored, a new project, decision or relationship that could affect the rest of your life. You will enjoy success and enjoyment for past efforts, events will pick up a pace and the outcome will be quicker than expected.
what is going against you (The Fool)
Beware of impetuous and impulsive decisions, they could cost you dear. Draw on your knowledge and experience, perhaps there are naive and immature beliefs behind your current desires. Are you looking to move onwards and upwards or run away? Look before you leap, you don’t want to appear the fool do you?
outcome (The Lovers)
Love is coming into your life even if you really can’t see where from at this time. If you are on your own a new lover will soon enter your life. If you are in an unhappy relationship you have a choice to make - go with your heart, take the risk, greater happiness is ahead of you.

Hmmm..... got new lup come into my life also no use coz my heart is no longer soft so Buey Zhun!!! Muahahaha
how you feel about yourself now (The Hermit)
You may be feeling lonely at this time or going through a period of introspection. If you are struggling to find answers to your questions give it time, they will come. This is a time for prudence and patience. If you have been unwell this is a time for rest and recuperation.
what you most want at this moment (The Hierophant)
The cards suggest Johnny, that what you most want at this time is to have someone around you that you can trust and confide in, knowing that they won’t let you down. There are moral issues here, knowing right from wrong, and you may feel that you need some advice or wise counsel from a teacher, priest, parent or someone you have a lot of respect for, in order to help you make the right decision.
your fears (The High Priestess)
You are feeling uneasy and insecure, something in your gut is saying ‘be careful, all is not as it seems’ - something just doesn’t feel right. If so, delay any decisions or actions until you have answered your concerns. If male this could signify a significant woman in your life being a bad influence.

Ok, viewed lemon's blog and she put this on her site and since she's the fool, then I shall be the strength to either make her or break her muahahaha!!!!! ^.^V
Strength represents patience and compassion. Getting angry is easy when events turn sour, but dealing calmly with frustration takes great strength. So does accepting others and forgiving mistakes. We need strength to mold situations softly. The Chariot controls through mastery and authority. Card 8 is more subtle, even loving. Notice how the lion (itself a symbol of strength) is being guided and tamed by the woman's gentle hands. For a full description of your card and other goodies, please visit LearnTarot.com |

I am StrengthStill.....
Oh crap.... despite my most earnest efforts, I've made the late entrance to the office again!!!! ARRRGGGHHH~~~!!!! Took a cab and it still happened. With a half sleepy mind, I'm gonna racked my brain on the database I'm working on which if successful, could ease the workload of Kris, my other colleague. With my limited knowledge on that software, I'm keeping my fingers crossed (-_-'')
Late but.....
Yeah yeah yeah, I know it's fucking late to write a blog, especially when it's time to go and sleep rather than risking a late entry to office later in the morning but since it's already so late, who gives a rat's ass anyway? muahaha!(^o^)
This evening's class is completely a wasted trip... why? Coz out of the 6 lessons, I've only attended one and that's yesterday, for Christ's sake! Best of all, it's the second last lesson and when I go there, I don't even have a slight fucking idea of wat the trainer is toking about! Yeah, like my friend Rudy said, "Might as well stay at home play Call of Duty" Yeah rite, I wished... but at least I tried going to the class trying to understand but of course, it leaves me full of question marks..... And the best part is, the exam is a case study so..... fuck, I'm really screwed!!!!! Oh wait, nevermind.... there's still a TestKing to the rescue but I still need to spend some time working on the courseware or I'll be really fucked.
Reached home, the Autumn Tale song is still ringing in my head so heck, might as well learn the song and create a ringtone out of it... well completed everything in less than an hour but in my opinion, it sounded sub-standard... as I'm kinda spaced out, I tot I can leave it tomolo to fine tune it.
Just finished watch Hitler: The Rise of Evil DVD my brother bought (that's why I'm still up at this time!) and fuah, this miniseries just rulez man!!! Jews will be damn affected by watching this one (well, can't blame them as that prick killed about 6 million of them) but I guess that since this puny island contained only a small amount of Jews, there shouldn't be much fuzz going on....Ok, now IT'S TIME TO SLEEP... I dun wan to risk another late entrance again....Till then, shit goes on....

Woohoo! Got my bike back!
Yeah!!! Yesterday I got my bike back from the workshop, replacing my clutch plates, wheel bearings, front suspension fork and my exhaust gaskets. I reached the workshop at about 7 plus, hoping to get the bike on the spot and go, but knowing the working style of the mechanic, as expected he's still fixing the bike up. Ya, he's a bit slow in term of working speed but I like his attention to details and the way he fix the bike as if his own. That's why I only want him to fix the bike for me and no one else. Surprisingly, he told me that the clutch fibers are still good, although he got me the new ones and he suggested to use them back. So in the end he only replaced the metal plates. I was kinda delighted when the overall cost is within my expectations as he also gave me some discounts off the labour charges. I spent about 3 hours in the shop and actually it kinda screwed up my plans for the nite. I initially intend to go to the furniture shop and get a new wall-mount cupboard for my MCSA books and DVD collection (they're all over my room and creating a fucking mess outta it muahahaha). Oh well, there's always a next time, probably this coming weekend..... Oh gosh, the teaching job and MCSE class had really taken up more than half of my weekday evening free time where I can do my own stuffs like composing songs for the band and practising my axe. Luckily it's only for a short period or my axe grinding skills sure go rusty muahahaha, but on the other hand, at least those things keep my mind busy, free from thoughts about looking for the other half..... oh wait, why the fuck should I be still thinking about it when I have now a heart of stone??? Muahahaha!! Fucking contradicting man, but it's true......Life's full of fucking contradictions......Oh well, back to my work :p
Aha!!! This is my second blog site created (forget where the previous blog had located due to long term of inactivity.....oh well, heck) In future, all kinds of shitty events and perhaps some nice ones, will be posted here..... but huh, due to my vulgar nature, guess couple of strong words will be used here and there but oh well, do I looked like I give a fuck? ^.^
