Yes...blogging again since "SOMEONE" asked me to. Anyway I've been wanting to blog for quite some time already but just too damn lazy to. Days before my last paper on the 27th were nuts man...no one would even expect that I still have exams going on. I went to play pool,jackpot,drink,movies and I only started studying the day before. But what the heck...I had all the tips ready and I already scored 40 marks out of the 50% from my previous ICAs so I just needed like 10 marks to pass. So yea...Wednesday was my exam and damn it was easy. MOST to MOST I think I could lose like only erm...10 marks? hahaha. Anyway went shisha after the paper with all the FBs...fun as usual. Ate dinner there as well...my "Boss Favorite" meal SUCKED...it was just an egg fried with cheese inside and fries as the side dish. Regretted ordering it. Shisha on the other hand was not too bad...had our favorite cherry mint and a flavor, apple mint. Not bad at all. Thursday...yesterday..went drinking with the BoBs at night, mongo madness. Carlsberg Special Brew, first time I got tipsy on 4 cans of beer. Well that's to be expected if the alcohol content of the Special Brew was 8.8% compared the normal can which is 4.1%. But even in that state I still managed to write a poem just thinking of that someone..hahaha. Anyway, today I went on a massive shopping spree, though the actual plan was to go meet her at the COMEX fair where she was working. Bought another formal shirt from ZARA and also a pair of gray slim fit jeans...not SKINNYs. Then headed to Queen's Couture and got a pair of dark denim Good Society skinnys. After which me and Jegan headed for Suntec to the COMEX fair. He went to find JK, Jotham and Nana who were working at the SONY VAIO counters selling laptops. Seriously, the main reason why that Indian Joker Jegan who thinks he's Mandingo(some black pornstar with a big...)hahahaha, is Shahirah Price, student from our SBM school, who was also working at the fair, only diff is that she was there to model. So I followed "Mandingo" and after that he followed me. In the end, the long wait to see her ended. Met her there and passed her the lozenges I got for her. Haven't seen her in school for at least a month or so already, and though I spent like only 3-4 mins there, I was happy. Yes, I am an idiot but...that's me. Went to eat with "Mandingo" at Marina Square, after that went to Club Marc and bought another bag for Monday's start of work. Came back home for dinner with my whole family...had a mix of Chinese and Indian food which my mom cooked. Watched Blood Diamond with my sisters, I swear the ending of the movie NEARLY brought me to tears. Great movie...just sent her a goodnight message...sigh...hope I wasn't disturbing her sleep or anything.

I’m drunk on the words I speak
With every sip of beer my mind becomes more oblique
This is my addiction, and the glass is running dry
In my dream I take a hit from your eyes,

I’m sure its just the alcohol
Working in my veins
That’s got the words you say
Driving me insane

And I’m getting high on your eyes
Each glance and I’m floating more
And I’m losing feeling, but its no surprise
Just a hit from your eyes brings me to the floor

This infatuation intoxicating me
But I fight the urge to be
Look in your eyes, and another hit will take it over
But once my addiction is fed, it’ll take me over

And is this all to life? Is this it?
Or if its love, is it really worth it?
But I’m sure its just the alcohol working in my veins
Making all the blood rush to my brain

Since the Beijing 2008 Olympics have started few athletes have amazed me so far. The first was China's Liu Chunhong.

Damn was she a strong woman. She broke 3 weightlifting world IN 1 Day. All the other competitors were at their second or third attempt for Clean and Jerk lift while Liu Chunhong came out to stage and showed them what weightlifting was all about. She came on and at her first attempt, secured first place. Her second attempt broke the Olympic Record and her third attempt broke the World Record lifting 158 kilos(3 of me!). Not to mention she also broke the world record for the snatch lifting 128 kilos and also the total combined weight lifted by lifting a total of 286 kilos in 3 attempts. Now isn't that something.

The next person to amaze me is non other than U.S.A's top swimmer Michael Phelps.

Well although it was pretty much anticipated that he would come out tops for swimming in this year's Olympics, I never expected him to break all the World Records in the events he's participating in. So far he's participated in 7 events.

First Event - 400 m individual medley - 4:03.84 NEW WORLD RECORD
Second Event - 4 x 100 m freestyle relay - 3:08.24 NEW WORLD RECORD
Third Event - 200 m freestyle - 1:42.96 NEW WORLD RECORD
Fourth Event - 200 m butterfly - 1:52.03 NEW WORLD RECORD
Fifth Event - 4 x 200 m freestyle relay - 6:58.56 NEW WORLD RECORD
Sixth Event - 200 m individual medley - 1:54.23 NEW WORLD RECORD
Seventh Event - 100 m butterfly - 50.58 NEW OLYMPIC RECORD
Courtesy of Wikipedia.

His Eighth and final event is 4 x 100 m medley relay which I think another WORLD RECORD is going to be broken. I swear this guy is like a fish, his jump start already beats the rest of the swimmers by half a body, when he switches around the 50m mark, he pushes himself much deeper and further into the water than the rest to extend his lead and his freestyle technique is what I believe has reached the pinnacle of perfection. Michael Phelps is a near perfect swimmer.

The last athlete to amaze me came along today. His name is USAIN BOLT, hailing from Jamaica.

This guy is extraordinary, he has this aura around him that at the very moment you look at him, anyone would go "WOW, this guy looks really fast". I first saw him yesterday at the 100m heats where he easily thrashed the rest of the other competitors. Can you believe this guy is so fast, that at the 50m mark he has almost a 8m lead from the rest of the runners. This was what happened in the heat and what shocked me is the fact that he started jogging and waving to the crowd from the 70m mark. The timing for his heat was 9.99sec. Scientists have calculated that the fastest any human being can run 100m is 9.48sec and with careful calculations at the rate things are progressing, this is expected to only happen probably in the year 2162. But I doubt that today! USAIN BOLT is the fastest man that will ever walk this earth. Today he broke HIS own World Record of 9.72sec with a timing of 9.68sec and I'd like to stress, he jogged to the finish line again from the 70 or 80m mark. So yea...I'm still waiting to see the day he sprints the whole 100m. I think he'd make 9.48sec then. And he's still participating in the 200m race and the 4 x 100m relay. I don't really see anyone challenging him and the Jamaican team for the Gold this year for these events.

Yup, that's all I wanted to blog about today, my Olympic experience so far. Anyway, if there "happens" to be any video of USAIN BOLT in action today on YouTube or anywhere, I'm sure to post it up here.

It's 3.33am in the morning and here I am blogging because I can't find anything else to do. Played tennis with Fuji and Ong today, had lunch with him at the Japanese Restaurant next to YCK tennis and squash centre. I swear the only thing that is nice over there is their Salmon Sushi. After that I headed over back to school to meet Phelan, been damn long since the 3 of us FBs have sat together and chatted. AHH! Damn pissed off...can't go clubbing, can't go drinking, exams are coming up and I've got to study and my damn attachments are starting on the 1st of September. Sucks big time. Anyway headed over to Godma's place in after leaving from school. Went for tea with her and Kimmy. Something damn funny happened. We went to this small cafe to eat. The waitress came over asked what we would like to drink. So me and my godma ordered just a normal Teh-O each but Kimmy wanted Seasons Ice Lemon Tea. The waitress said " no we don't have that." Then Kimmy asked for Coke. Waitress also said " no we also don't sell that." Then my godma got pretty pissed and asked sarcastically " SO...WHAT do you guys sell?" Waitress innocently asked "Anything,Whatever you want?". Mind you she was actually referring to the drinks called "Anything" and "Whatever" Could see that my godma misinterpreted this and thought the waitress was playing punk with her. Kimmy who understood the waitress said to my godma "I want anything." Godma boiled up and asked Kimmy to shut up thinking she was also playing punk with her and told the waitress to get her one Kopi-Siew Tai. I was over there laughing my ass off after the waitress left, my godma also scolded me asking what I was laughing at. I pointed at the "Anything" can on the counter to her and told her Kimmy did want the drink "Anything". She also started laughing her ass of after realizing her stupid misunderstanding of the waitress' words. Hahaha..anyway I'm heading to JB to do some grocery shopping with my mom tomorrow morning, don't know if I can wake up but what the hell...my mom will still wake me up to go. Oh by the way, was doing some dumb quizzes on facebook until I came across this line

"To you: A friend is someone who can see the truth and pain in you even when you are fooling everyone else."

This is so very true, however only 1 person so far has been able to read me like a book..hahaha

I feels like...

A night sky without stars
An ocean without waves

A colorless world void of feelings.
I drift through wave after wave of emptiness.

My heart has no rhythm to beat,
No life to pump through my veins.

I have no words to speak,
No thoughts to write down.

I'm incomplete...

Went to watch Money No Enough 2 yesterday night with the BoBs, Yi Liang and Andrew at Yishun Golden Village. First half of the show was DAMN BLOODY funny, being serious here..first time I have ever laughed watching a local movie especially one done by Jack Neo. The second half where they started going having trouble with their lives was quite sad, but I thought it was too exaggerated. I mean how can 1 family experience so much misfortune in such a short period of time? First Mark Lee had his bee pollen vitamins contain some chemicals and has the Singapore Health Authority close down his business, next thing his wife embezzles money to help him pay up the loan sharks and ends up in jail. Then Jack Neo, who was dabbling with property, investing in land and stocks, if what I read on the subtitles was right, his stock broker ran away with $450k of his money, and not even 10 seconds later, he received another call saying the clients who wanted to buy his land for $2 Million had stopped negotiations and canceled the deal. So in about 5 minutes of this scene, he lost a total of $2.45 Million...amazing! Soon after they were all in debt or bankrupt, their mother went senile, although for this part of the movie, I felt quite sympathetic towards the mother. The saddest scene was when they showed the grandmother crying at the gate of the Old Folks Home and Rayson Tan just dropped her off and literally ran from her. She was so distraught she collapsed and had a stroke. Next thing she was in the hospital in critical condition needed blood transfusion and the hospital's blood bank had run out of her type and only Jack Neo and his wife had to same blood type as her but the couldn't donate because he had liver problem and his wife was anaemic. What made the situation more dramatic...Jack Neo's daughter in the movie had a fatal car accident on the same night and also needed blood transfusion. And COINCIDENTLY, she had the same blood type as the Jack's mother. So there started the massive fight for the last packet of blood left in the whole hospital, and just at this point in time, the mother woke up from her deep sleep to see her children quarreling over who should be saved. She used her last bit of strength and pulled the plug on herself committing suicide.

Yi Liang and Andrew were crying buckets of tears when this part was going on, I was just there looking around and found almost everyone around with tissues in their hands or wiping their tears on their sleeves and I thought to myself...I must be one heartless bastard to have not shed a single tear. But what the heck...it's just a movie. And yea...I still don't think a single family can experience so much misfortune over such a short time span. Anyway...Andrew came over my place to stay..played command and conquer kane's wrath till 4am then we went to sleep. Woke up at around 2 today, went to the bank to activate my frozen account so I'll have a bit more money to spend besides the pathetic allowance I got this month. Went to cut my hair as well...damn bloody short...I look like a kid with an army man's hairstyle...hahaha...but I've wanted something short for some time already. Tomorrow I'm playing tennis with "Wednesday"...basket..said he's gonna laugh at my hair tomorrow when he sees it. Okay I'm tired of writing already...that's all for today...

Eyes of chocolate
Sparkling bright,
Slightly darker is the night.

hi...I'm back after a month's absence. Damn stressed over my projects which was why I was busy for almost the whole month of July. Imagine me not even having the time to visit my godma for like 3 weeks when before July I was practically there everyday. And after 3 weeks of slogging out day and night..I'm finally at the end of it all. MONDAY..the last day of presentation..perseverance! just 1 more day! Mao is back ah...damn stressed...almost go whacked today for coming home late...but Mao has cooled down...I guess my mom's miracle chill pill had a strong after effect. Came home he just said this to me

MAO: "3 hours of sleep is enough for you?"
Me: "yea...I'm quite used to it..sorry for coming home late yesterday"
MAO: "Go to your room and sleep."

And after I woke up..everything was back to normal...was having dinner and watching his usual wrestling with him while translating what the wrestlers were talking about to simpler english for him to understand. Supposed to have gone for midnight show now with my godbro...but tickets sold out. Bored. So yea..I'll be ending off with this...until next time...

I hope for you to notice me
Is too blind to see?
What is it that's wrong with me?
I do like you, in case you can't see

I would never be untrue
But what do i have to do?
I only want to be with you
Why does love make me so blue?

You make me feel so unreal
And then, there's a new deal
It's almost like I don't exist
Just like I was never missed

I'm just like you I'm human, too
But you'd rather have a John, or a Matthew
Is it that I'm not enough for you?
Please tell this is not true

I dream of the day when you'll look my way
And walk my way then I'll have something to say
I know these words seems untrue
But that's all I really want from you

But for now, I'll walk away waiting for that day
