HAHAHA someone drove into our clay flower pots HAHAHAH.
this two girls in a nissan cefiro tried to do a 3 point turn.
ended up driving straight into the flower pots.
pretty comical. was looking out of the window.
saw her having difficultly, joked about it to martin.
next thing i knew, she drove into the pot.
lucky for her, it wasn't the dragon pot.
she reversed out in the end. all thanks to the idiot that parked at the end.
totally blocking everyone's way.
no one is able to do a 3 point turn cause there simply isn't enough room.
--
--
--
one of the poles for the scaffording just fell out of place.
the scaffolding for the construction opposite our place.
came crashing to the ground. just learnt from martin that it isn't the first time.

alright, dad expressed concerns over the sharp edge of the sword.
that is understandable. cut myself once while cleaning my other sword.
that one is really sharp. gonna encase it in a display casing.
custom make one, would be cheaper.
then lock the acrylic to the base. that way, it cant be taken out just like that.
may be displaying it downstairs instead.
meanwhile, i have sheath it, and its back in it beautiful red box.
hope this one doesn't draw blood lol.
melvyn's gonna add the korean cloud sword to his collection.
before discount, 1000+. that one really requires tender loving care.
i love the sunburst tsuba design, but for that sword, its also a thousand plus.
still waiting for the reverse blade. there isn't any stock at the moment.
--
--
--
alright, gonna wash my car later on.
wanted to wash it last night. hands were too weak after exercising though.
pushed myself pretty hard last night.
so, its gona be after this. around 930pm?
rest a while. then exercise alittle more after that.
plan to pump again tomorrow morning,
plus the next nights off after booking in.

updates updates... ...

falling ill, not sure how bad but it feels bad...

car is in need of a super bad wash...

dont ask me about the sword, bought it as deco, of cause luh...

next up would be the helm, its all for my future room. own room...

beats getting tattoo-ed right...

there are a couple of others with really beautiful guards/tsuba but they are pricy...

think i may have gotten myself another traffic fine...

sped past a speed cam on the express way, by the time i realise what it was,

it was just beside me, braked hard. :x

thinking of staying home for the next three weekends...

that way i can save money, and work out...

its not like there's alot of places to visit in SG...

and i am wondering about band. feels like its time to stop...

hmmm i was just wondering.

which of my friends know which side of me.

are they able to see the whole me or do they see just that few sides of me.

like i said before i dun think many of them really know me anyway.

then again, it leads me to think. the way we view others sometimes.

its more like we see what we wanna see rather than

we see the whole person right? cause we are bias beings, we judge.

so we are not able to see all sides of the person right? confusing myself :P

this is the mischivous little leo.
not little actually. a few years old already.

k i have no idea what is this for.

for tomorrow.

Ah ma made these.

there's another chocolate flavored one, not in this pic.

by the way, thats not a burn mark, its a shadow.

at the bottom of the cake.

what a spread!! hahah

bought back chicken rice and chicken.

aunt made the gnaw hiang. ah ma fried it. damn nice !!

my dear ah ma...

thats their maid siti.

they taught her how to cook hahah.

yes i was at my favorite aunt's place.

ah ma stays with her too. as my blog's lao jiao would already know.

anyway, went there. slacked a while.

went down to NYP, shall come to that later.

went back to her place. had dinner together. haha.

love dinner over there. its really shiok.

grew up on it, the first eleven years of my life. hahah.

NYP.

went back to play for the alumni band.

just there in response to my friend.

she said they needed players for the clarinets so i said ok.

sarah jane and fahmi was there as well, to my delight. lol.

sarah's still hyper energetic, fahmi still himself.

one common change? their hair styles.

they both look more hip thought i think sarah's previous hair do was better.

zaidi was there too. and quite some of those that went for the previous WMC.

oh yeah, they are taking part in this year's WMC as well, 1st Div.

would i get a chance to meet them? not sure but i do hope so.

play against them? that would be interesting and yes i would love that as well.

hope to stay at the same hostel. wanna visit the nearby monastry again.

oh, the alumni band conductors? 3 of them. though only 2 were around today.

Keith and Gavin. wait, let me correct that.

keith... ... ... and Gavin. okay. that looks seems more like it.

had no idea what was i playing a third of the time.

upon request, by the woodwinds, the 6 beats was still done in 2 groups of 3s.

cause the conductor himself got the beats mixed up from time to time.

thats why they requested it done that way. it never was corrected. hahaha.

pretty fun interesting though. realised there's changes in fahmi's playing.

in zaidi's as well. then there's another live wire behind me called Sheila.

she plays the horn. she looks really demure but she's really, cranky hahah.

okay at least from all that laughter i hear. fun people. they spice up the lives of others.

then the two blokes in front of me, each taking their turn at a time to be laughed at.

i mean seriously hahah, the lao jiao wood winds beside me were giggling away.

oh guess what. nearing dismissal, during debriefing.

sarah took out her dad's Olympus cam and started taking pictures.

yeah, like what the hell? hahah. so she got a shot of me and fahmi.

and none of me, i dun like that, so she had none of me alone.

k. hope she comes online tonight. can get the pic from her.

what else? there simply too much to blog about.

oh yeah, eileen gave me a pad on the back which was more like a slap.

it hurt. why? cause i went MIA from nyp band for such a long time.

hmmm. abandoned the thought of washing my car.

initially planned to give it a rinse like around 2130hrs.

the wind was cold and blowing hard though. k sounds wrong. nvm.

gave number 1 a call. same at where ever he was. i think woodlands.

so yup, gave up the idea. maybe heading out later anyway.

gonna meet meiting for supper? no idea. thats a big maybe.

oh she's my senior, so yeah,

dont think otherwise but a meeting between two friends.

she was the one that asked if i would play.

vanessa found the packet of three condoms, in my drawer.

was looking for her calculator that martin "borrowed".

guess what, she told everyone. so, over lunch between me dad and martin.

i was like, whats all these gay thing about?

then dad said, she found condoms in ur drawer.

and i said, in the jungle need to use mah.

and dad said, wa ur screw each other in the jungle?

i was like wa lao eh, no luh. collect water luh.

after a few more dirty jokes, alot of laughter,

and after alot of effort to swallow the food.

i settled the problem. apparently, during a smiliar incident before enlisting.

sister found a box in my drawer as well, YEEEKKSSS

her terrible boy horribly blogged @ 21:50

gotta watch this one...
and The Wedding Game. gonna watch that with cousins during CNY.
CNY as usual would be boring. not gonna pai jia with the scouts.
cut costs haha, petrol is one major expenditure.
estimated about 200 a month. minimum. gotta drive less hahah.

Eight year-old Bruno is the sheltered son of a Nazi officer whose promotion takes the family from their comfortable home in Berlin to a desolate area where the lonely boy finds nothing to do and no-one to play with. Crushed by boredom and compelled by curiosity, Bruno ignores his mothers repeated instructions not to explore the back garden and heads for the farm he has seen in the near distance. There he meets Shmuel, a boy his own age who lives a parallel, alien existence on the other side of a barbed wire fence. Bruno's encounter with the boy in the striped pyjamas leads him from innocence to a dawning awareness of the adult world around them as his meetings with Shmuel develop into a friendship with devastating consequences.

two new books. the tattoo book is a picture book.

and the halo book. hahah saw it on the shelves.

couldn't resist. so no more gaming console.

her terrible boy horribly blogged @ 22:41

Thursday, January 22, 2009

i am gonna get another tattoo done.
this one's gonna be a greater blasphemy then the previous.
the act itself is one already. the design's gonna be outrages haha.
think of a cheeky angel oops.
probably in three months time?

her terrible boy horribly blogged @ 21:10

okie updates.
--the bench would be here this saturday instead.
change of plans due to some money issues.
--part time studying has been approved by my superiors. thats good.
just gotta check whether i have to fill up any forms, if neccessary.
--this vocation is really boring. its at chong pang camp. under the air force.
i do nothing but slack in an air conditioned room all day.
therefore, i maybe getting a gaming console. have been solving cross word puzzles.
watching short clips on one of my buddies' psp. and doing nothing.

two of them were discussing something about this movie.
quoted a phrase from this character in the movie.
anyway, its just, when the guys in the movie got better at hooking up with girls.
they also realised that they loved the girls lesser.
i think thats pretty true. cause after a while, its more like hunting.
you just wanna kill the game, and get the reward.

i dont think i wanna go anywhere this CNY.
just stay home and save the money haha.
maybe just hang out with the scouts, pai jia with the scouts thats all.
other than that, no plans.

just a check.
--3 scratches have been removed.
--xenons have to be ordered.
--would order the bench 2nd saturday from now.
--gonna have alot more time to do what i want.
--plans for studies are underway.
these are the more important ones.

reporting tomorrow.
no idea whats it gonna be like.
right now, the main thing on my mind is,
i wanna study. yet i have no idea if i can make it.
they say its easy, but i really have no idea.
confidence man confidence. at this rate, half the battle has already been lost.

nearly had an accident. would have been a T-Bone for the other fellow.
he made a right turn at the cross junction without checking.
i picked up speed pretty quicky as usual.
he couldn't see me and i could see him.
light was green, so thats in my favor.
he horned. i hate that. why dun people use the time to avoid instead of doing that.
okay i was partially in the wrong for picking up speed so quickly without checking.
funny thing is, the vehicle in the middle lane wasn't moving.
i was on the left. the ones on the right were making their turns.
maybe he was jutting out so much, the middle lane couldn't proceed.
anyway, both was at fault to me.
wonder what would the japanese metal have become if we did collide.

whats the good thing about driving such a car? this brand.
you can turn up your music. pull up near a jap beng car.
and people would be starring at the other fellow instead.

an aunty there explained to us.
the two deities are from hell, the ones that catches the souls.
one black, one white. they were summoned up.
and were in the bodies of these two men.
people could then approach these two guys,
provide their 8 characters, birth dates, full name, the place they live at, street name.
one of the deities would then calculatewith an abbacus.
and tell the person, whats his future gonna be like.
supposedly they can help take away illnesses as well.
another aunty kept asking us if we wanted to have our "ming" calculated.
we of cause, politely rejected.
it was around 12 when the deities finally went back down.

mainly the front suspension. the right side.
car's been producing lotsa noises. like material fatigue.
over the small humps, the suspensions sound like its gonna give way.
and i wanna go hiking. anyone interested?
k maybe not hiking, i dun know what u call since its singapore.
just a walk in the reserves?

Saturday, January 10, 2009

i should have brought the camera out, darn.
went out with the boys today, plus sir.
had buffet at the hotel beside DFS.
royal something something. cant remember the name.
food was alright. price is kinda steep for that quality.
ate till we were super full. they needa gain back the weight/mass lost.
oh yeah, it doubled as a celebration for the jan birthdays.
like 8 out of the 13 of our birthdays, are all in jan.

Recce Commander Course, it was there that they realised samuel's a selfish fellow.
samuel and his section was really CMI in Charlie.
overall though, everyone's still as one. and thats good.
kudos to Jun An, he carried the signal set, around 10kg, for the entire 60km.
removed his socks to find his feet covered in blood.
alwyn blacked out. tried too hard to start a fire, was too close.
too much carbon dioxide. jian ming went down with a series of illness.
danial's EQ went up by quite a bit. everyone's got more cock to talk about now.
and they have earned their 3 stripes and jungle hats.

her terrible boy horribly blogged @ 21:15

managed to swap my saturday duty with a sergent friend of mine.
avoided saturday duty hahah. its the most dreaded day for duty.
saturday duties really suck big time.

could get to sleep thursday night.
kept thinking. fantasizing actually, happy thoughts.
made myself "happy for nothing" haha.
thats the little boy in me.
and the memories came back one by one.
just recalled the past. smiled on them.
i just feel good that at least, i experienced that kinda feeling before.

okay i felt kinda awkward just now.
was having having dinner with Platoon Sergent and P.Commander,
plus two of my scout mates. as we were leaving, PC & PS started talking about cars.
then they saw the beamer, and PC was saying he could only dream.
they were cracking jokes about how they would be able to buy one.
blah blah blah. and i had to walk to the car because it was mine.
i didnt realise pc parked his behind mine.
my two buddies already knew of cause. so ps and pc were like waaaa.
i was like this sucks. hate it when this kinda things happen.
its really horrible the feeling. really sucks.
and i feel really bad. PS is from quite a family as well.
mods cars and everything. he loves cars.
but yeah, overall, i felt bad. i really really felt awkward.

cool eh, that was in korea.
their most recent trip there.

been eating alot of mac for supper lately.
its okay for me cause i dun gain any weight.
okay, i dun burn the bad stuff as well, so its not doing any good.
trying to gain weight. its pretty hard.
maybe i should return to my 3 meals a day, plus lotsa soy milk diet.
that helped a little. plus exercise as well.

hmmm, decided to "rebuild" my relationships with some friends.
particularly this female friend that i suddenly stopped contacting.
well, we are back on track, everything's pretty smooth sailing.
the others, bit by bit. everyone's kinda busy.
the girls are either working or at school. same for the guys, plus NS.
it was a really bad decision to fool around then.
missed out alot on building friendships.

sometimes its best to let go.
best to not pursue certain things.
discipline paid off, helped alot today.
not to mention the music and my mouth dying on me.
kept me distracted nearing the end of practice.

did our photo shoot today.
roped in number 1 & 2 for a shot.
we took a similiar picture many years ago.
that was my first day in school, catholic high.
shall get the pic, post it together with that old pic.
see the difference.

her terrible boy horribly blogged @ 21:57

alright, i experienced the 3rd bad one.
haha. i got cheated !!! by macdonalds...
the drive through outlet at amk central.
ordered 1 chicken nuggets meal and a large fries.
paid that price but i received i box of nuggets and 1 packet of fries, medium.
hahaha. phew. at least its a bad thing that i can pay using cash.
dun wanna pay it in another way.
3 days mc, worth the wait.
felt kinda proud yet sad when the fellow asked: "you're a soldier right"

things happen in 3s. so they say.
i had a dream two nights ago that i kerbed the left side of my car real bad.
so bad that the entire car jerked and stopped.
it was while i was making a left turn.
today, i reversed into another car.
dumb right, i stepped on the wrong pedal.
okie, think the honda jazz's number plate went in.
my car is fine, save for about six 2 to 3mm scratches on the bumper.
there goes the pain work. gotta sprayt he reat bumper.
woke up with a bad enough headache in the morning. as well.
i wonder whats the third one.

her terrible boy horribly blogged @ 16:17

did what i intended to do today.
vanessa, the plants everything. oh.
except for picture taking. didnt have time for that one.
followed dad and marcus to russel's. picked up marcus' car.
hell my car was damn dirty. ok. as in water marks/stains.
soaped it earlier on. still couldn't get them off. thanks to the drizzles and the sun.
otherwise, the car's pretty clean. kinda tiring on the arms to dry the car.
today's pretty uneventful. nothing at all.
think i'll might be missing prac this sunday.
either that or i'll be late late late. wanna gain some weight haha.
and i need a shave. gd night.

alright, gonna get my heat insulation panel and maybe,
the xenon bulbs tomorrow !! zeng my car hahahah.
gonna blind some ah bengs tsktsk. this is the diff.

Thursday, January 01, 2009

these two shots were not very well taken.
gonna try and re-shoot tomorrow if i have the time.
anyway, they were just subjects for my monochrome shots.
was trying out the B/W with other color tones like purple.
this one's the M3 stock rims

this one's mine

sending vanessa to school tomorrow morning.
give dad a break. can have a longer rest.
most likely gonna buy the plants for aunt lily and grandma late morning.
send them to aunt jenny's house, have lunch with them.
then send my pants for altering and home.
think that would be about, 1/4 tank. thats 30 bucks. ouch.

did the grafting today. haha.
used two different plants on the tree outside of our home.
those that the developers planted. standard tree.
used rose and erm, whats the other. ( thinking.... )
oh yeah. it has the word "amanda" in its name.
some yellow flowering plant. anyway yeah.
grafted the two flowering plants to the tree.
five grafts in total. two rose three amandas.

was pretty irritated by the weather today.
it didnt rain but it kept drizzling. not continuously. thats the bad part.
it sort of like, drizzled for 30 mins, stopped for an hour,
and continued again for a while. that kinda thing.
left hell alot of water marks, now water stains.
i cant remove them, gotta send it in for waxing and polishing.
and i have decided that the USB port shall remain unused.
gonna stick to the AUX input. the car doesn't recognise the iTouch.
it is however, able to read and copy the songs from an ipod or thumb drive,
into its own hard drive. problem is, everything's a mess.
i would need the iDrive to be able to organise everything neatly.
thats why i have given up on the USB port.

her terrible boy horribly blogged @ 21:22

my new year resolution. to be a better man.
and erm, uploaded a few more songs to the blog play list.
these are from my itunes library, light music, hope u guys enjoy it.

these are the 325i's head lamp units.
these aren't the main lights though.
just the angel eyes with the brow.

this is the M3 in Alpine White.

yogi was feeling kinda bored.
kept chasing her away just so i could shoot the pic.
thats why she looks kinda down.

vanessa got drunk at her friend's place haha.
stays like, 3 mins stroll from our house.
got drunk on 6 BBQ plastic cups of sparkling wine.
drove me and melvyn mad cause she just wouldn't stop talking.
she kept repeating herself like a broken down tape recorder.
damn funny. melvyn kept smacking his forehead with his palm.
