Blessed Be – Lucky Me

July 29, 2007

As i got off the train at AMK today…i thought to myself…”Wad time is it? aiya over 10 le…damn wads the chances of me catching a glimpse of Ber? I tink she gone home le… =( ” and den as i waited for the bus home…a hand smacked my back! It was Ber! berberberberberber hahaha! My god i was super shocked and surprised! and happy to see her…in fact…so happy that i forgot everything i wanted to ask her…everything i’d wanted to say and well…everything. Lol! Her eyes were glistening in the dimly lit bus stop and i kept blinking coz it looked like she was crying…after the blinks my eyes became clearer and realised nah…its juz the coffeeshop’s lights in her eye’s reflection…

But there was something else in those lovely eyes…tiredness. Its been pretty tough on her…to be studying and working…but she’s a great woman. It takes more den the average poly-going student to do tat! I guess its true…There no sweet victory without a bitter war. lol!

We managed to exchange a few formalities *where u going etc* and den my stupid bus came…cutting our convo off…the bloody 159 realli doesnt come early when u need it to. Be content Alvin…it keeps ur blood pressure stable. Den she left with her fren. Sian. but i bought 2 mags today! Milk n East Touch , its not bad…fresh off the shelves…I gonna go crazy and wanna buy a Bell & Ross watch…i tink its priced at a few k ? *shrugs* gd luck to me~

Society without Man.

July 26, 2007

Today, something tat i’ve waited for 3 weeks has finally happened – BER CAME TO FIND ME. For god’s sakes like finally….but when i saw her…something else caught my eye. No not the lovely bright orange skinnies from Pull and Bear(she told me) but that weird sadness…if i were to ask i bet she’d deny. Maybe she’s juz tired from all the sch work. Or its something else…anyways i hope she’ll get back up! I missed the old days with her…just hanging out. Heck i missed the gd old days with every1…Joanne, Yeow@ Banquet…omg those were the days man…FAN QING FU MING! 😀 *only certain ppl wud understand*

But times go on…feelings change, but we still hang out albeit less… I spoke to her for like 5min,but i felt our conversation run out as it soon began…somehow all i wanted to say had fizzled away but i was content with her presence. I haven’t seen her for awhile now…her hair’s grown long *time for a cut love?* the signs of fatigue,the gd old leather bag and that striped cardi…and those eyes…there used to be so much light in them! So much energy and spark! It pains me to see her like this…but den as she left to meet her frens…i felt sad – when will i see her again? Another 3 weeks? I hope not. Bernice once i get my pay we go out have some fun k? 😀

The new season for Flesh Imp is in…called Black Rebel. No pics for ya…to add to the surprise…but there’s 2 jeans – 1 unisex skinny and 1 lovely black washed denim jeans in slim cut…the Slim Cut 1 is hauntingly similiar in wash as compared to a Lee Rider Japan jeans i saw in Haji…I wan….*drools* I heard there wud be hoodies but no sight of them yet.

Tml I promise you guys a more exciting and interactive post…u’ll see tml! 🙂

How do i breathe?

July 25, 2007

There’s nothing to write abt today..so we shall talk abt nothing. Nothing is. Nothing becomes. Nothing is Not. I wish one day i shall keep jellyfish in a grand tank in my home…its ironic coz we are like the jellyfish in that tank – bound by everything around us yet we are free to do as we like. Withing in the tank. Most of us seem carefree on the outside yet have u seen a jellyfish cry?

Wouldn’t it be nice if life was Cadbury?  It  isn’t if u remember chocolate turns sticky when left in the Singapore Sun. How many times have u been let down from your dreams only to realise its nicer that way?  “i never die” said He. He never died. In another seperate universe i am a designer, i completed my Private diploma and i’m now programming robots and doing advanced community-sciences in Japan, i have a grand tank in my home with jellyfish floating abt carefree. Isn’t it ironic coz we are like the jellyfish in that tank – bound by everything around us yet we are free to do as we like. Yet i am here, writing this  with a smile yet i do not not know why. Its got nothing to do with Elmo, he sometimes feel emo coz he speaks funny and every1 laughs at him. Forgive him he’s only a 3 1/2 yr old Muppet.

I only seek a companion on the same wavelength as me, able to transcend a world of intellect and see thru the illusions of words, yet mingle with them and fall back into Reality. All with a smile and laugh as u land on ur butt. Faced with ridicule at my surname from young and various setbacks in childhood – i have grown immune to behavior deemed childish on my part yet i sometimes partake in these actions. I mean no harm but i act in jest. Forgive Me.  I like to play with words and books take up a large part of my life as do movies. If 1 shud share my world ,i shall surely share his/hers inevitably, but i do not view it with disdain.

For those who work with me – i hold a very simple rule – We can play and play we shud, but when work and duty knocks on our door we MUST be able to drop our toys and muses and react immediately. No Questions Asked. I’m not the commander on the chariot nor am i to be taken lightly at my Word but I seek to do the same amount of work as all of you but more. It is only fair that under my wing i shud protect and care for my team as they are my frens too. Everything that works in your current system shall work in my system too…juz tell me abt it so i may see how i can fit in.

Of the many who read this few shall comprehend, and yet within the few who do, lesser shall understand ; alas the few who do understand some shall misunderstand. Its Normal; its called SNAFU -Situation Normal, All Fucked Up. Chaos is Order in another form ( The chinese saying is much nicer den i put it)

Today Claudia uttered something i tink is worth mentioning : ” 劍不傷人, 情傷人 ; 劍傷人重 , 情更重  ”        For the uninitiated – Swords dun hurt ppl, love does ; If a sword hurts alot , den love hurts more.

And i called her @ midnight to repeat that phrase to me…Lol! Thx Claudia! 😀

Done as i wilt.

July 24, 2007

Such satisfying days should never be remembered, they should be so much a part and parcel of your life that u conveniently forget their existence… Lol! I completed my trip!Head down to Bugis at 3pm…and arrived there with clouds all gloomy and such…so i decided to have chicken rice…when the food came i was rummaging for money…so the guy turned around and left me alone 1st…so when the drinks came, i set aside 3 bucks for the rice. The weirdest thing soon happened as i finished and prepared to leave. I turn around to pay the uncle the 3bucks i owed and he said to me :” You paid already wat? ” I knew it was gonna happen this way, so i made a quick explanation, and turned to leave…suddenly as i was abt to cross the road…the malay helper from the stalls starting shouting for me! And gave me back my 3 bucks and comfirmed i had paid! How nice…i paid a grand total of $1.50 for a plate of chicken rice and a drink. Lol!

Next up was Graniph… the new store was very much like wad a concept store shud be like…clean, wooden and the bold words GRANIPH DESIGN TSHIRT STORE in the evergreen Helvetica font… My fav!

graniph.jpggraniph1.jpg

Some nice tops i saw…so nice until i bloody forgot to go MUJI! lol…but i managed to visit Kino upstairs and got a great idea for my company namecard.

I head down to Sim Lim after that…and to my surprise its pretty difficult to find Ipod sellers there! I tink there was like a total of no more den 5 shops with the Mp3 player and that had Song Brothers and the Lvl6 Ipod reseller included…So i hunted for the ‘Edison Electronics’ as stated in the forum and found it at $330 for the Ipod Nano 8gb and $340 for the 30gb Ipod Video, all without GST…damn $10 bucks diff? but the size! nvm i got 1 mth to ponder…

I went down to Sungei Rd after that…it was already with abit of light rain so i popped on my Alternative Apparel Fidel Trucker Cap . Sadly due to the light rain, most of the ppl had tentages spread all over the stuff…but some gems were to be found…

shakespear.jpg

I managed to get this for $3…lost the bargain to an old lady storekeeper…well nvm, it was raining so lets treat it as a rainy day charity ya? * die die wan face!* I cudn’t help it coz i really wanted something to read! Another round of scouring around brought nothing to my fancy, so i thought i’d head for Haji Lane for a coffee or something…

Most of the shops in Haji have realli matured and a few more smaller shops have set up. However i realise the crowd is often something that leaves the shopkeepers wanting. There was only me and another group of ppl on the streets and i would say there was only like 20 shoppers (misc groups and 2 couples) in the WHOLE LANE. *tat counts for the ppl in the shops buying stuff too* maybe its the rain ya?

Anyways i found this nice shop…but it sells girls stuff…so u can imagine how paiseh i was when the lovely salesgirl opened the door n said :” Hi, we carry ladies apparel here , but feel free to look ard!” LOL! At least she made it easy for me …so i stepped in and decided to spread the word for her.

soonlee.jpg soonlee1.jpg

I’m not very sure of the name now but i tink it had the words ‘Soon + Lee’ in the store…there’s no frontage or signage downstairs…but there’s some nice wall-drawings when u go up the stairs… the lvl2 inside the shop is very cool and overall i tink u gals wud like it…stuff is mostly dresses n accessories.    Niche’s new season also has a nice pair of shorts…Blk front and behind is another diff material…like the vest materials…very cool.Hopefully  i can pick tat 1 up nxt mth lol…

Leaving Haji Lane and heading for ‘Murtabak Run’ – a secret location where me n my Army buddies bring our gfs (and sometimes soon-to-be gfs) i made a very funny mistake…i turned 1 alleyway too early and found myself in the wrong place, den i muttered ‘shit la’ out loud (i’m sure it was pretty loud0-i had my mp3 on) , turned ard and found a group of china ktv girls behind me. They were apparently very stunned coz i had practically mutter shit la and den spun around immediately to face them. 1 of them even covered her mouth holding back a scream. I smiled in apology and den headed for the correct alleyway lol…. den i read the Shakespeare Book until i realise tat the sun had set! I tink i was reading for almost 2 hrs…but i finished it…5 plays, Romeo and Juliet , Hamlet, Macbeth, King Lear and Othello. not bad…but i still would haf settled for juz R + J anyways…:D

The 1st paragraph is a flat lie.

July 22, 2007

Recently i tink i wanna vote for myself as ‘sucks’. Yes i suck. I’m a failure and unable to bloody carry out my duties. I haf no frens, a detached family and i m fucking penniless. I’m addicted to smoking and drinking and without my daily coffee i am cranky. I am unhelpful to my peers and disrespectful of my surroundings.

*a kinder hint for the uninitiated –> read the post name*

I’m so thankful of my blog and every1 shud be too…it spares them from the madness of Me.Today wasn’t bad…Reagan still sick but coming tml…with Claudia n KC ard…i tink i laughed enough to hit my weekly quota – thx u 2. I found out today KC is a fellow Aquarian… Welcome to the Aquarian Age…Its our Time now…I’m serious…check out the astrology channels dude. Claudia said Aquarian guys are great partners…i dunno how true is tat…but i’ll tell u i’m the kinda guy to stick ard until u kick me away…

ha…she just sent me the clipping of the horoscope signs…but i read it before…for me…its mostly true…and i tink its a very gd guide of myself ( for ppl hu wanna noe how i work) Treat me steady and i’ll fight for u, dun lie, dun bastard me, dun keep me in the dark. I hate to guess and be unsure. Well for 1 thing …i find it damn hard to find a gd partner for myself…and the ones i want…well *heh* nevermind 😛

God i wan my pay so much….I wanna buy Headporter Bag, Ipod Nano 8GB, Fujifilm Cam F31FD, Nudie jeans and a whole lot of other small items like LV Wallet etc etc…I tink my nxt 3mth will be spent trying to achieve all these…*sob sob*
