20070429 - HAHA



imagine what would it be like if he names his son Hugo or Mongo or Major.

schlogged at 10:09 PM



- g202's done.

another exam done, one less exam to get over and done with. its always a good feeling! after your last exam for a class. you don't really care whether you screwed it up or aced it. because at the end of the day, that was the last chance you had at doin well for the class. but then again, after the the initial post-exam euphoria for ONE exam settles...you start thinkin bout what you messed up for the exam.

so yeah, that moment's just a fleeting one! speaking of fleeting moments...was damn shocked when eugene showed this youtube to me. geez!!



now we know who the best drivers in the world are!

20070428 - k204's down!

that's one exam down so far! pretty excited bout that. few more exam days, few more studying days, few more cups of coffee from starbucks (i dunno, i think i just got the habit from studying for A's...yannoe? studying isn't studying until you mix it with Starbucks?), a few more hours of staring at computer screens and i'll be done for Spring 2007;

can't wait for summer'07!


gonna be takin a nice break from studying tonight and head for a friends' gig. that should be some good fun! meeting new people and all. good breather! definitely.

20070427 - bad times bad times

these are bad times!

i've got emotional-crisis patients to my left, remnants of the flu on my back, facebook on my right and studying in front of me.

but at least i've got a place to stay next year. and i have my converse & coffee.


remember, today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.

20070425 - indescribable

words can't pinpoint how i felt from 4-430 this afternoon. i'll try;

pins & needles on my hands and feet. you know the tingly feeling you get when you're anxious and you start to get clammy hands? and you unconsciously run your fingers through your hair and start grabbing at it when you get spurts of excitement? or how you don't realize it but you were so caught up in the action that you had no idea you mouth was hanging open. your heart beating it's way outta your ribcage. voicebox gets constricted.

thats how i felt watchin the second half of the united-milan game. boyyyy was i on the edge watchin it with fellow united supporters. i swear i've never been that happy over any manchester united goal in my life. i literally had no idea what to do when they scored. should i shout? scream? jump? you won't believe what i did. i friggin jumped off the seat, yellin my balls off with vejay (dude watchin the game next to me) and we just faced each other and yelled together and just shared a bear hug (aww). that's for the first goal.

2nd goal celebration was even more ridiculous. i had a cup of coke in my hand. and since rooney scored in the 91st minute, everyone was outta their mind!!!! shouted in the dorm lounge like no ones business. and yet again, i had no idea what to do with my hands. so i decided to throw my half full cup of coke away! like, launch it at a wall or sth. but the moment i did it, coke somehow fell all over my head. HAHA total klutz moment! but yeah! i didn't care at that point!

but then again, i guess the intensity was felt by EVERY united fan. friggin Old Trafford was suppperrrr quiet. whenever united attacked, no one made too much noise. as if shouting would make shots go astray.

but i do now! my hair's all sticky and stuff. prrft. but it was well worth it. the united team showed guts, perseverance and grit. simply amazing the way they came back from 2-1 down against an italian club, known for their defensive abilities. kudos to united! lets hope things turn out well in the away leg!

anyways, got the pics from mr and ms asia;

mr and ms thailand. hilarious dude and the hot dancer (hot dancer doesn't = hot looking dancer)

mr and ms indonesia, the winners

mr and ms singapore. haha!

and of course...me! having the entire stage to myself.

owells and thats that for today's post!

20070423 - screwed over

i guess the saying not to put all your eggs in one basket is a lesson that has to be learned in a harsh way.

what do you do when you kinda get screwed over? taking into consideration you based a lot of things on that matter and it got really really messed up. so what do you do? i guess you just sit and hope that an alternative pops out.

- they did it!

they did it! they slipped up against the barcodes! wooooo weee!

and i just found out today that chelsea have to play arsenal still. next week in fact. so things suddenly look rosy all over again! anyways what happened this weekend...hmm, pretty much chilled the weekend away. took the weekend before exams to chill out and get some fun in before mugging the next 2 weeks away.

i'm starting to sound like a broken record, but in slightly under 2 weeks, i should be on my way home! skipping the thailand part of my homeward-bound journey cos of some family stuff. but at least i'll get to see everyone in one piece when i get back! cheers to that.

watched casino royale again on saturday. on dvd of course. and i still think its the best bond movie i've watched since i was born. definitely! oh and i'm starting to stock up on my movies to put in my vault (otherwise known as an external harddrive) so i can watch em when i'm bored in singapore (sureee get bored. 4 months in singapore. you're just asking to be bored!)

so until then..i'm gonna get some sleep. i get to sleep in! geog's canceled. apparently the professor's sick. owell. SO AM I! sticky mucus.

20070422 - slip-up

yikes!

i think chelsea's gonna knick the league title away from man utd! chelsea's 4 points behind with a few games remaining. if chelsea win newcastle tomorrow..it'd be down to 1 point with only a few games remaining.

but the thing is, united still have to play chelsea in the league before the season ends. and i really can't see chelsea giving united an easy game at home. unless all the united defenders get back to fitness in 3 weeks. if that's so..it's gonna be a hell of a game!

well, that's IF chelsea beat newcastle tomorrow. c'mon you barcode-ded magpies! if chelsea slip up.............

20070420 - you just don't get it

has it ever happened to you, when all you want is for that special someone to just understand what you want. what you need. and when they don't, you either let the frustration get to you, or you choose to shut down and act like it doesn't bother you.

that happens to everyone and what do you do when you're pushed to a corner when all other alternatives lead only to pain for one or another? people who know me well enough know that i rather things go my way than anything else. but i guess sometimes i just have to learn to give the 'benefit of the doubt' away, and be that better person. i'm sorry i wasn't that better person today.

oh well on the brighter side of things, its the weekend. little 500 weekend, so we'll see how that goes. not lookin forward to the next weekend though. cos i've got exams on Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. the ones that bother me are those on saturday and sunday! geez. give us a break! we're just kids.

20070419 - where's singapore

talking to beks this morning brought some decent laughable comments.

first one was bout bloomington being a college town. was trying to explain that basically, come summer, the town's gonna be pretty empty. most of the student population will be heading back home. and that's what this town's all about - the students. so yeah, things will be pretty darn quiet around here! and to prove she understood, she said.."basically when its summer, the cows will outnumber the people?" heh. it makes sense! bumfart indiana's home to cows and farms. a decent university in the middle of nowhere!

oh and i was givin an example of a typical conversation between an american and singaporean about singapore;

american: so where you from?
singaporean: singapore.
american: ooh. which part of singapore?
singaporean: singapore.
american: don't you go all asian-smarty-pants on me, which town? singapore's a state right?
singaporean: uh huh!
american: so....which part of singapore?
singaporean: singapore!
american: BUT YOU SAID SINGAPORE'S A STATE! HOW CAN A STATE BE IN A STATE!
singaporean: yeah...the thing is, singapore's a state country. or along those lines. its not broken up into different states.
american: oooh i see......so....it's not in china?

damn these americans. kinda exagerrated, but you get my point. i think the same applies to all the lesser known asian countries. to the americans, we're all from china.

oh wait, and they think india is not in Asia. india is a whole continent on it's own to be made fun of by americans.

oh and this conversation took place in my geog lab today.

(we were all doing some calculations)
niq: okok, just let me handle the calculations. let the asian kid do the math.
brad (american dude) to everyone else: see. if i said that, it would have been rude.

20070418 - ARGH

ARGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

can't believe i forgot to upload an assignment last night for my computer-in-business class. that's 10 marks! just lost like that. maybe not lost yet, depending on whether or not my professor accepts it after i sent it to her this morning. highly doubt so though. ARGH that's extra pressure to ace the darn finals for the class. ANNOYING. unnecessary pressure!

can't my semester just end smoothly. grr.hope everything else here and back home turns out fine. it should! and it better. owells.

was just thinking bout how some people claim they let go of the past very easily. while others find it extremely hard to let go. but the funny thing is, after all is said and done, its usually the people who claim to forget easily that are the ones who seem to keep an interest in the personal life of those they are supposed to have 'let go' off. and those that initially said it'd be hard to let go? those are the ones that let go of things the easiest.

maybe its because of denial. self denial. maybe? or maybe its just curiosity-out-of-boredom. i'm sure someone once told me that if you want to let go of something, you have to have limited contact, zero contact if possible.

but i wonder if that 'contact' refers only to conversations or if it encompasses the checking-up-on the personal life of that person you're supposed to move away from. example? let's say...checking up on their friendster or their blog for instance. i mean, wondering if the person's doing fine is okay. but c'mon, checking up on the daily happenings of someone else...that's something else altogether. maybe i'm wrong, maybe i'm right.

i just like my space (very much, thank you) and it just bothers you when you know someone is checking up on you when you rather they not.

oh yeah speakin of which, recently i've got the most random people from the most random countries checkin out my blog. i've got people from beijing, costa rica, spain (catalunha) & netherlands (some Wanadoo city).

i mean, i'm fine with people reading my blog...i am!! but its only with one or two that i'm not. if you're not that thickheaded (which i don't think you are), get the message!! thanks. maybe it's just me being cranky these days. but this was gonna come out sooner or later.


ps: i'll know if you get the message.

20070417 - aftermath

everyone's talkin bout it. bout the V.Tech shooting yesterday. People have their internet browsers in their laptops opened to cnn.com, fox news and all them news sites instead of typing notes for class. everyone knows that some asian kid did it. a korean dude's face splashed across all news websites and front pages of almost every paper.

but then again, i don't think it really matters if he's korean to americans. americans would probably take it that he's asian, whether or not he's korean, chinese, japanese or singaporean. prrft! but the campus newspaper here had a different photo splashed across its front page. this is it..

kinda brings the message home doesn't it? seeing injured kids our age being carried out by policemen covered with helmets, flak jackets and most probably carrying guns. (i would think that the injured would rather not see a gun anywhere near them actually) i think its better than splashing students crying or the killer's face all over the front page. it makes it all the more real.

oh yeah and beks mentioned that she's sick of the word 'shock', 'shocking' & 'shocked' used in the articles. how bout this one...'empathetic', 'empathy', 'saddened' & 'sad'. i swear i've seen those words at least 20 times in the papers! thesaurus anyone...? heh.

owells, its not all too bad a day. man utd extended their lead at the top of the table again (:

check this out. best video i've seen in a long long time. double click to watch it full screen. trust me, you wanna watch this full screen in HD. you do! YOU DO!!! who said geeks weren't cool? (depending on your internet speed, this may take awhile to load) oh yeah and you're gonna need to up the volume on this one. TRUST ME. you do. watch and crank it!

20070416 - mr and ms asia

mr and ms asia 2007 was great! high energy, laughed and woot-ed my throat hoarse and most of all, relieved that i did a decent job for my narrator bit part helping out the singaporeans.

mr thailand was like some hyper monkey on prozac. his name is 'nut'. owell, figures. oh yeah and imagine 20 odd japanese dudes, topless, wearin white boxer briefs with a red circle around the crotch (so that it'd look like the japanese flag) goin crazy dancing, shaking their asses, swinging their schlong and jewels. the 2 highlights of the night!

plus the singaporeans' little skit was received rather well! laughs, applause. we got it! and yeah, when i did my narrating part in front of a few hundred odd people, i WAS nervous. trust me! but the nerves died down as the audience kinda warmed up. so i was able to do my thing and everything turned out great! mic, lawrence, charles, yvonne...you guys did a great job!

but yeah, sometimes it feels good to be thai. haha! the thai association performances were high octane, stomach cramping, tear inducing, heart thumping stuff! with a greattt dancer for ms thailand & some crazy jackrabbit as mr thailand..kinda hard not to enjoy it. haha!

oh yeah and my mom mentioned today that we don't have a choice in the people we're thrown together with. we can't choose. there's a reason you are around them and vice versa. i think that kinda makes sense. most of the times. even though sometimes you just wish you never had met a person.

oh yeah and i think my throat's finally feeling the effects of pizza, mexican food, icecream, lasagna & pineapple tarts consumed over the weekend ): plus there's flu along with the bad throat.

20070414 - phantom limbs & the pizza slut

i admit it, i think i'm a pizza slut. came across that term yesterday. but yeah, i think i'm a pizza slut. i kinda skipped dinner on thursday night, skipped breakfast friday morning and had an empty stomach for pizza mania friday afternoon. downed 9 or 10 slices of pizza, i kinda lost count. you know how it is when you get so full that you lose track of what you eat? and everything you put into mouth displaces a memory of a previously-eaten thing in your memory bank? in the meantime, managed to dupe beks into thinkin john mayer was at the event.

a few hours pizza, had dinner at a mexican restaurant. woooo. i really felt like throwing up after dinner. you see, after pizza, i hadn't taken a poop. so after dinner...my stomach had 4 layers. pizza at the bottom, nachos on top of that, quesadillas right on top of that and a few cup-fulls of water to top everything off. i HAD to take a poop soon or my stomach would turn into some septic tank. plus it wasn't helping that jokes were constantly thrown around during dinner, making me laugh, making my stomach contract and further induce my vomit tendency.

PLUS beans make me fart. alot. and i'm kinda glad to know i wasn't the only one suffering from bean-fart syndrome last night. oh yeah and you know the 'geez go get a room' feeling when you see touchy-feely couples? it struck hard last night. prrffft! gives me the chills just thinkin bout it. hahahaha.

had a decent chat online with stef last night/this morning. talked bout friendships made, lost, rekindled. at least the fact that we can count on each other was made clear enough. its always nice when shit happens in friendships but it eventually makes the friendship that much tighter. we've got our own stuff to deal with now, but at least we know there's an outlet we can use & depend on. but it'd be kinda sad if our own lives get in the way of the friendship. but at least that's not happening...yet! major catch up sessions with the rest of tennis team is definitely over due!

speaking of lives gettin in the way. friends are lost too. even supposed 'close' ones. then there'll be that sorta-phantom limb feeling. when sometimes you just wanna reach out and talk but you know they're not the same anymore. but i'm sure things will turn out fine soon enough!

anyways, i sorta promised i wouldn't release this picture to the public unless its for blackmail reasons. but i don't really care right now. HAHA! so here they are...haha and check out 'em twists from me and carl.;


hahah kinda hilarious huh? i've never seen a vomit-geyser before until that day. i've seen vomit-waterfall, but not vomit-geyser. haha! oh and those are my boys down below. and centre dude, i'll destroy your sticks when i get back.

20070412 - sleeping/silent partners

funniest thing happened in class today.

yannoe, in certain companies, there are people who give cash to the company but choose not to be named, they call em 'silent partners'. so, today in class, this indian dude was trying to ask a question bout these so-called 'silent partners'. the thing is...he couldn't remember the exact term 'silent partners' so he used the term 'sleeping partners' instead.

so he asked our teacher: "so are these people the company's sleeping partners?".
and our teacher answered: "(silent for a few seconds) oh sorry my mind was somewhere else when i heard that."

okayyy it may not sound so funny right now, but it did in class!

- after all, we're only human

first things first; i downloaded the united - roma game on my computer! ;p why? because it's one of those games that a few years down the road people will be talking bout how great a game it was. and i wanna be able to say i watched it! because sadly on tuesday, i was in class and missed the first half. now it's safe to say i've watched the whole game! (: he who has not watched and is a united fan should shoot himself in the nuts.

okay back to the mundane stuff. nothing's more mundane then trying to get into gear for finals. yikes. its hard to get into gear! really is. but gotta get the wheels churning sometime soon. cos looking on the bright side, its singapore once i get past finals. yipeee!

oh there's all-you-can-eat pizza tomorrow for just $5! its some event where you get to vote for the best pizzerias in town and get to sample 'unlimited' pizza for just $5! why the quotes around unlimited? that's cos i seriousllyyyy doubt there'll be enough pizza to feed pizza-mad american students who i'm sure are gonna come in the hordes. can you tell the difference between America and UK? UK's got the cultural thing going on (ask jia, she should know) while americans just want their pizza and coke. going with friends...but i assure you when we get there, it's every man for himself.

after all, we're only human. and humans like pizza. if you don't like pizza, it's probably cos you've only eaten singapore-made pizza :)

20070410 - Manchester United 7 - 1 AS Roma




7-1!

7-1...i cannot believe it! pinching myself purple trying to let it all sink in. amazing! never thought this would happen. i was nervous before the game, figured that united would win anyway but that it'd be close, and perhaps too close for comfort. but wooo! 7-1! plus my boy Carrick got 2 swashbuckling goals, beks' boy Smith got one he definitely deserves and bridget's boy Rooney bagged one too! red through and through. i feel so proud!! wow, how much would i give to have been at Old Trafford there and then.

way more convincing than a 2-1 win for Chelsea with a last minute goal. prrrffft! but yeah, a 7-1 united win makes the day a good one no matter how crappy it's supposed to be. not that i've got anything heavy planned ahead today.

anyways, it's not very pleasant to see a friend trying to put up strong fronts, trying to make themselves feel better but all those defences crumble at things that one would normally see as inconsequential. and you know also, that there's very little you can do to help because you can't really understand the going-ons in a person's mind. but then there's always a question you can fall back on, a question that maybe can clear some doubts.

hold on to whatever you think will help get you through. but who do you love? him or the thought of him? don't say it's the same. because it's not. and you'll be doing yourself a favor by not saying 'both'.

20070409 - SA Tennis '05

): was lookin through some tennis pictures yesterday and i couldn't help watchin this. again. and again. ending up missing the whole lot of you all over again.



if only we didn't move out of JC. if only 05/06 lasted forever. but time waits for no one and i won't exchange that year for anything. definitely. we had our fun, we moved on but i think the feeling of having that tight a team will stay for a longgg longgg time. but of course, it's silly to live in the past. i'm happy where i'm at now (: eh and i was super skinny and cao tah! prrfft.

--

i thought The OC washed out when season 4 came out, but i guess i was wrong. it's still right up there amongst my favorite series! trashy you may call it, but enjoyable nonetheless. still got one of the best soundtracks around! and pretty good humor to boot.

i hope everything falls into place for everyone! its nice to see things falling into place. always is!

20070408 - ups & downs

wow, alot has happened since i last blogged. really been a draining weekend but i rather not get into the details. i shouldn't anyway. so here's a recap (abitt like how beks recapped hers, only more exciting :P)

Friday: the Singapore Students Assocation (SSA) elections. at the start of the day, i decided to go listen to the speeches of the people running for posts in the committee. since i paid my dues, might as well check out what my money's gonna be going into next year (: so yeah, the posts of president, vice president, treasurer & secretary were dished out pretty quick without much hassle. aside from some over-exuberant speeches which i will not go into detail also, except that it kinda got on my nerves. anyways, the public relations (PR) & webmaster positions were still up for grabs. so now-happy me was looking forward to the whole thing ending soon because i kinda knew who would be running for the posts and that they would probably get them. oh and i caught TMNT at night! pretty good movie. cool animation, but i thought they were abit too skinny.

at the same time, there was a mouse running around the room. so i got coaxed into tryin to catch it! owells. but yeah, when i was happily trying to catch the mouse...some people just blabbered my name out for nomination for the PR post. so yeahhhh...i had to give a speech. didn't plan to run but since i got nominated i told myself 'ahh what the hell just go for it..'. but thought i'd spice things up abit and crack everyone up with my antics (: which i managed to do by the way. apparently everyone was laughing pretty hard. oh oh oh and on a sidenote, i did get the position. so now, i'm the PR of SSA. wow. not bad for a thai huh? ok...no link right there.

on a further sidenote, my comedy antics seemed to earn me the call-up of being narrator for a skit in Mr & Mrs Asia 2007. geee. we'll see how that goes!

Saturday: a day that i wished never happened. a day when i wish i wasn't there but at the same time, i'm really glad i was there. but i'm not gonna talk bout that. i'll blog bout somethin else....I FINALLY PLAYED TENNIS FOR AN HOUR! indoor court by the way...because it was in the negative degrees on saturday. didn't play that well, but managed to pick up some form toward the end. arms still feeling tight! usually it loosens after awhile, but i guess that's what you get from not playing for almost a year!!!!!! and yannoe what else you get after playing tennis for the first time in a long time? aching butt, aching hamstring, aching thighs, aching shoulders, aching forearms. yup! aching body. but yeah, i think i've found a decent tennis buddy in IU! thanks lawrence!

Sunday: relaxing day up. aside from a few issues, everything was enjoyable indeed! company was great, food was good, ice cream was good, tv/dvds were good. slept a pretty-darn lot today! maybe it's cos of physical&mental fatigue from saturday and friday. but yeah, nice way to recharge!

so that's that. and the weekend is gonna end in a few hours. eventful i must say. plus i was flipping through pictures on the computer and saw my superman curl! so here's my funny picture of the day;

oh yeah and this is stuck in the ear; Jackson Waters - Jamie's Song

20070406 - computer & weather

thank goodness thursday's over. i don't like my thursdays at all. hmm, well...the greek test today went alright, not as well as what i hoped for. looks like a good score is out of sight, but i hope it'd be decent!

bought and played command&conquer 3 on my computer. really good stuff, though it was abit laggy at first. so today, brought it over to david's place. installed it on his really expensive computer which was built for performance (prrft, rich kid) and it played realllyyyy smooth even at the maximum graphic detail. i wish i had a computer like his! i would if i could, but it's out of my means!

still happy with mine though. as long as it runs smooth, plays music and is internet accessible, i'm a happy camper. thinking of upgrading the graphic card though (not that mine is that bad, just that some games are taxing on graphic cards). so probably pop by BestBuy tomorrow and look at their stuff. gotta get computer geeks david and lawrence to come along...so i won't be looking around like a headless chicken with the brain of a bull.

oh and guess what -.- after a week of 20deg weather, the worst thing that could happen would be for the temperature to drop to winter-like ones. and it has!!! a few days ago, everyone on campus were wearing shorts and t shirts. but now? now the winter clothes have been whipped out of the closets...AGAIN.

plus there were some snow flurries today. prrrfft. ridiculous indiana weather. but on the somewhat bright side, i'll probably be playing tennis tomorrow! even though the temperature will be in the single-digits. it should be an experience!

definitely will.

20070404 - waking up & missing you

today hasn't been a very good day! kinda annoying in fact. i don't like thursdays cos of my heavy schedule. and wednesday isn't any better, because i have to prepare a lot of crap for thursday classes.

plus i have a test which i haven't really studied for. and it's those kinda tests that NEED a lot of studying/reading. oh well. plus preparing for tomorrow took away 2 hours of conversation time with you. oh well.

so here i am..taking a 5min breather from greek notes! (: i think my 5min is running out.

when you're dreaming with a sunken heart, the waking up is the hardest part. you roll outta bed or sit up right and for that moment you can hardly breathe; wondering if she was there, standing in your room. then you realize, 'no, she's not.' she's as far as far can be right now. but even then, she still makes your day brighter for you.
some how. some way. any way.

20070403 - rain & john mayer

okay...humble salutations again fellow internet users.

been a really cold, dark, gloomy, dim, dull, overcast, tenebrous, aphotic, atramentous, crepuscular day. if you wanna know, i ripped the last few words off thesaurus.com. but yes, it's been drizzling since 4pm and it's 11pm now. hmmm, there was a tornado warning a few days back. but i don't think there was one today. owell. oh and i must mention that john mayer is a good rainy day artist.

but the fact that i've had 2 dreams about tornadoes and that is quiteee discomforting.

apparently dresses are the 'in' thing in singapore right now. yannoe? those lil polka dotted dresses with the hugo-mongo belts. i mean, okay...they were cute and all when it first popped on the scene..but it's just gettin ridiculous now! everyone from hot babes to ahlians are wearing them. and apparently, there are people wearin dresses over t-shirts. maybe i'm a guy and i'm fashion-dumb...but i think dresses over t shirts are just WRONG.

but then again, that's just my opinion. if you don't like it...you can go fart on yourself. prrft. or rather, pooot.

oh yeah something interesting bout greek class. this is the interpretation of love by some greeks;

they say that the first humans were made of 2 bodies and 4 limbs. the 2 bodies could be of any pairing between the sexes (eg: female-male, male-male, female-female). but apparently somethin bad happened (i can't remember what exactly, must have spaced out at that point) and the greek gods separated these 2 bodies.

so what do you get now? you get 2 separate bodies. and these separate bodies wanna get back together as one. that's where you get the saying 'i wanna find my other half '. cool? and that's where you get heterosexuals and homosexuals as well! interesting huh?

but that's bullshit and you know it. just interesting to think like the greeks! or as Leonidas in 300 would call them 'the boy-loving' greeks. heh!

kinda promised myself to post a funny/hilarious pic once in abit..so here is today's!

don't deny that you're not in love with your computer! ask yourself, what would you do without your computer. if you get a decent enough answer, let me know. (this test is not meant for the older people who don't use the computer as often: aka my mom. hi mom!)

anyways, been addicted to John Mayer's album, Continuum. good stuff. sit back and relax kinda music.

but haven't really been chilling because apparently, i have some kinda hold on my record for class registration and it says i'm a delinquent. WTH!??!?!?! looks like tomorrow i'm gonna be clearing some stuff up. grr.

prrft. delinquent.

20070401 - sunday afternoons & coffee

greetings. guess what? i got my hair cut! even though i kinda swore off getting my hair cut in america. i kid you not. it's not an april fool's joke! hmm..don't think my haircut went that bad. looks fine, so far.

my blog's got this cool gizmo that can see who views my blog and where they view it. kinda neat, considering it narrows things down to countries or states all across the world ;p maybe this sounds psycho but i know who's reading! i'm watchin you watch me.

k enough of that. today my mom asked me why i don't blog like i used to. what she means is '"why are you bloggin bout rubbish now? you used to blog bout deep, insightful stuff! make yourself seem intellectual. now? now you sound retarded". i think that's what she implies anyways. (heh i know what you're thinkin mama! i'm your son!). hmm..but yeah, i do blog differently. why? i think it's because nothing conflicting is swirling about in my asian brain.

i think last semester there were issues and choices that i made which i thought were right; only to realize they bothered me still, and i couldn't really put them in a bag and drop it off at some deserted bus station. but i guess i've kinda resolved and straightened things out since then. though not agreeable with some, i guess the fact that i'm more at ease gives me reason to blog the way i am in person - qwirky and retarded (again, qwirky with the 'w' cos i am wayniq!).

so there's the reason for me bloggin bout random nonsensical stuff. maybe people do wanna read bout mopey/deep stuff sometimes huh? hmm lemme try...

was chattin with elizabeth luei 'bird bird' the other day (eh bird, kill me if i misspelled your surname!), and she was tellin me bout how it is being an asian in australia. it's definitely tougher than being an asian here (or maybe it's just because i'm fortunate enough to be in an area where asians have been around for a long enough time). she's been keeping up with her netball game in aussie, unlike me cos i've been bumming around without tennis. and from what i gather, she's the only asian in the team and her teammates don't really hide the fact that she's asian and they're not. that's bound to suck for anyone who's different from the majority!! but the thing is, she's not giving up but continues to go at it. cool huh?

i guess resistance to something brings about suffering. and suffering's different from pain. some events may create physical pain, but they do not create suffering; resistance creates suffering and that makes things hard. so i guess resistance; resistance to give in to taunting, resistance to do what you feel is right against what you are told is right, causes pain and hardship. who ever said choices and life was gonna be easy?

so there you go, deep thought of the week. i don't think my brain's capable of repeating that on a daily basis!!! okay...need something to loosen up the brain cramps and let retardness creep in. i think this picture....................

is gross. she's supposed supposed to be female. or he's supposed to be female.
i don't know what to believe on the internet anymore!!!

ps: i had coffee today!
