200...7

2008 is gonna end real soon, and i'm uber psyched that the new year is about to take over. Now, now let's sit back, and ponder a little. The naughty little things we did throughout the entire of 2007 or reminisce those sweet little moments that lifts you up into the sky. A little self reflection and maybe a new resolution list. Sounds rather cliche but hey i'll just stick to the norm. Where the approach of the New Year is celebrated with full of smiles and joy. Nope, i don't think sticking to the norm is a huge bore. I call it... being as original as it can get.

I still enjoy a nice countdown with my friends or families. I will go to where the crowd lingers to maybe catch a glimpse of those glittery fireworks dancing in the twilight. Where, strangers of around the world wishes you the best of the new coming year. Like the previous years, a nice good party or gathering with the friends you cherished to end off the current year would definitely be a bang.

Well, i'll continue tomorrow night. Goodnight fellow readers.

"...2.0.0.8..."

The Day After.

Hey guys, HAPPY BOXING DAY. Well, i don't celebrate it neither do i celebrate christmas but somehow i wish i do. I mean Hari Raya's fine and all but somehow the past few years made me realised, "Hey, Christmas is ultra cool and fun.." And since then, i'm totally into this festive period. Like many other festivals, it involves spending good quality time with friends, family or loved ones.
But yeah obviously, i spend Christmas with of course my friends. Okaye, i don't want to get all mushed about friendship, relationship or what so ever all over again. So this paragraph will just end as it is. Rah.

Life Updates;
Well, everything seemed to be going pretty okaye so far. Workload seems to be depleting day by day, but it's too early to say aye. Situation in camp after the huge inspection seemed rather less tensed than before and thank god we nailed it. At least i've got none of my superiors breathing down my neck. Phew. I've got an MP to take over my I/C role and i'm pretty thankful for that. I mean there are pro's and con's about it onbut hey one can't be too fussy about it aye. At least, it lightens my workload.

I'm looking forward to the New Year, the mighty 2008. The year where i finally ORD and getting on with life or whatever that's left of it. I know i may still have less than 5 more months before i become like any other NSFs that ord-ed earlier than me; the recipient of my antic and much missed pink i/c but this doesn't stop me from being all in the mood of an ORD personnel. That was quite a long sentence. Heh.

Time to get my ass back to school, maybe work first and to gather the pieces of my life that i left along the way during military-hood. My designing skills maybe quite rusty, but i hope to polish things up a little. My portfolio of my works should be in the process and i hope everything would be done by the time i ORD. Not forgetting, the extreme holiday packages awaits me after the big O-R-D. Cool shit. Anyway, that's that. Until next time. Ciaoz.

"...yet again, merry xmas..."

Yuletide Goodness.

First of all, wishing each everyone of you who reads, stumbles or came across my blog, to everyone out there a wonderful white christmas yeah. Heh. Slept in abit today and woke up just in time to attend Shawn's Christmas gathering at some huge bungalow chalet way down at Changi. Somehow, i love the huge chalets there because as rustic as they are, it's far away from all the hustle and bustle. Well, as haunted as it can be as well heh, but hell yeah it's a cool and damp day today in the east. It was great, chilled out with some of my friends by the beach. Turkey's, devil curries, log cakes and hell alot of pure goodness.

Before the weather goes against me again, i headed home say 6plus. Don't you just love Christmas, i know i do. The gift exchange, the great food and of course not forgetting great companions. =)

Yesterday, i was called back to camp for work because of certain unforeseen circumstances which pisses the shit out of me because IT'S CHRISTMAS EVE and my mum's birthday for god sake's! ERGH. Well whatever it is, i'll put away the negativity aside and let me move on to the much prettier things in life.

Spent Christmas Eve around town, but of course trying hard to to avoid the massive aerosol can spraying crowds in Orchard and whatever square area these morsels of devilish imps would hang out at. The RP's including myself had a mighty satisfying christmas lunch at Manhattan Fish Market. Which, puts a huge smile on my face heh. After a short walk down to town, slacking at Spinelli's was the answer for a nice chillout session together with hardcore people watching. HAH. But yeah all these occurred in the day before town turned into a massive hell hole in the evening.

Before all hell's break loose, more coffee chillings at One Fullerton Starbucks. Alright, that's that for today's entry. Below are photos of some fishy goodness. Happy Chrismukkah ya'll!











"...hohoho..."

HELLO and goodnight.

Went for some cycling earlier in the day and i played around with photoshop the rest day accompanied with random MSN chats, friendstering, facebooking and youtubing. Other than that, my eve of christmas eve is pretty much mundane. Oh, the parental birthday is tomorrow. Whoopeedooda!

It's those nights where the mind is empty, and the inspiration to give a nice long entry seemed to be nothing more but a wish. Alright, here are the graphics i did today. Goodnight and goodbye.

Friendship and Goodbyes.

Hmm. Sometimes realization of being the only child hits me deep and hard. Every single day waking up to an empty home can be rather depressing but it's like a routine; a practice. The single parental had already usher off to work, and i'm left with myself and my cats. I know, i've got friends complaining on how irritating their brothers or sisters are but sometimes i've got others who simply adore them. I know, i will never get to actually go through all those. But i don't know, do i count my blessings for being the only child?
But all i know is that there is only one thing that completes my life. They are friends.

I don't know, i hate changes especially dramatic ones. From a change of school, to a change of work and of course getting myself into the army. There's always the end of each transition of change and that sucks because i hate goodbyes. Sometimes, good things happen, you make fantastic friends whom you want to keep forever but somehow you know when everything marks an end; these things sometimes won't last. It will start off okaye until everything gets drifted apart. Sometimes putting hell of an effort to keep things the way they were before doesn't work. I hate it when that happens. It hurts to see sometimes when you make great friends but things tend to go differently once you actually say goodbye.

I've always been the one trying to get everyone back together, to have a reunion, to meet up once in awhile.. yada yada yada and i'm quite tired of it. But i won't stop doing it, because i know myself that i appreciate them enough to actually try to tighten the bond we used to have since everyone had gone their seperate ways.

You can call me irritating, or whatever when sometimes you'll receive a message from me daily or so but hey, how bloody busy i am, i managed to actually slot in time to say hi or something. At least a part of my heart remembers you aye? I don't know, i hope goodbyes will be better now for me. I do not wish to say goodbye, and made it sound as though it's the last word coming from me.
I love and treasure the great friends i make, they complete the life of an only child.
They complete me. =)

Christmas Raya

So my Hari Raya Haji Night was spent by going for a Christmas dinner organised by Derrick. I've got clashes of the festivals, yet again. Earlier in the i was still contemplating whether i should attend the dinner because afterall it is Hari Raya night. But since the house was rather empty after 6pm, why not eh?. He themed his dinner, a sleek yuletide. I'm stumped with what to wear because i've to put up a formal get up. Throttled over to the Marriot and i was slightly late HAHA. Dinner was great because of the company.

I'm waiting for Derrick to send me the photos on MSN but for now, i'll put the vain part of myself when it comes to dressing up haha.


Alright, i'll blog a little more during the day i'm rather poofed out for now.

"...untill again..."

Nil.

It's Hari Raya Aidiladha today. The celebrations are not as massive as Hari Raya Aidilfitri but the family still gathers at my place earlier in the morning for some family time goodness. Anyway, i'm looking forward for this week because i'm gonna have my super long weekend/vacation/clearing of leaves week. I think i deserve this break, so i ought to embrace it before it's long gone.

My camp's uber scary security inspection is over. And we nailed it. I am mighty happy for that, we did well in every aspect of the inspection. Now, that's a relieve. At least the late nights, crazy working hours and all those naggings were all paid off. A huge thank you to my RP section for going through the show as garang as they can be, to the HQ guys for helping me with the logistics with the filling up of water barriers and tentages ah you guys rock, the company line dudes for the constantina wires and all the wospecs that lent a helping hand.

OK la, when the new year arrives, i'll treat the whole lot of you alright? (do you hear that fairiz!?) heh.

Anyway, i've got a gig next year early January. I can't wait for that. The funny thing is that, i've never met my band mates ever, now that is scary. All i know, i'm being thrown in as a vocalist, and i've got the drummer and guitarists coming from the different faculties. Eek. I swear non of us had even met each other, it'll be weird but i hope it'll be good. Man, i do hope the chemistry is there. Anyway, the first meeting would tentatively be on the 29th to discuss about the event, *ahem salary* heh, songs and many other stuff, we'll see how it goes from there and my duty falls on the 30th. -_-"



I need coffee. It's been a while since i gulp down a cup of latte. Ok i'm off now, i hear voices in my living room, ah those visitors.

P.S. Selamat Hari Raya Ya'll

"...hello and goodbye..."

WHAT the hell?

I'm still watching Arsenal Vs Chelsea, which i am rooting for Arsenal that is but i just have to blog this. Besides Liverpool lost to Manchester United with a score of 1 - 0. Non other than Tevez did the scoring. I just have to announce that,

I didn't expect him to win at all. I mean yeah, GO SINGAPORE YAY! but whoah, he actually won the damn idol show; again. Despite his quite un-impressive show last night, he managed to actually score the goal. Okaye, this soccer slang seems to get in the way of my entries. But yeah, God damn it! HADY won!? Anyway, i'm off to watching the game again.

P.S. I think i pissed a friend off or something cause he sounds slightly off or my instincts are failing on me. If it's my fault i'm totally sorry bro. Friends forever?!? haha that sounded uber cheesy. But hey, apologies totally yeah.

Oh Oh, I watched Alvin and the chipmunks last night, ratings 2.5/5. It was hell adorable but the climax came a little to early and ended off rather anti climatic. The show is utterly predictable and annoying. I mean you have chipmunks singing in those nasal like voices through the entire SHOW. So yeah, but for a cheap thrill or to bring back those childhood memories, is sure is worth it. HAHA. Okaye bye.

"...WHOAH...."

HELLO Weekends

I didn't had a good rest the past few days due to the hectic work schedule that's been piling up for my camp's uber scary and massive security inspection. It was crazy, and now after the incorrigible late nights, the damn inspection was postponed to the 19th of December.

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

I swear, frustrations doesn't get any worst than this. I'm glad that i've got the weekends to myself but i'm prepared for any last minute phone calls by the god almighty superiors, to make me rush my damn ass back to camp. Ah man, the thought of it makes me wanna squeal.

Anyway, nights in camp can be pretty okaye but nothing beats home obviously. Thank god for great friends, with endless chats, soccer watching, guitar strumming and everything else was great but then again, nothing beats home. Haha. Watching Singapore vs Thailand was uber depressing, the company was good but the match seriously at my throat. After Thailand's 3rd goal, i've lost my concentration and couldn't be bothered with the game. Man, the trouble of bringing down the damn 29inch TV down into the company lecture room was such a let down haha.

Next night with Shawn's guitar strumming together with late night chats with him, Taib and Fadli in my bunk was cool, which ended up with crappy conversations of ad jingles and slogans. MAN, it was hillarious but was good haha like i said the company's great.

I am not going to start with the late night work because the nightmare still lingers because the DAMN INSPECTION WAS BROUGHT BACK to a later date. ARGH, and yeah it was Hari Raya Haji Eve, whats there to care about right?

*rolls eyes*

I might be going out later. The usual towning but let me see what's the plan for me later though. I've got no time to even plan my christmas thingie properly. Now, i'm worried. Will it even happen or not man! ARGH.

"...ord..."

Like a minute ago, i've got tonnes to type. It swirls in my mind waiting to pen down the thoughts in my blog. But now, everything seemed to make another turn. I'm blog blocked.

Ah forget it. I'm getting old and senile. Tsk. Goodnight.

The Weekends =)

Finally, my computer is up and running. Well, it's a brand new monitor but the same old crappy cpu. The fainting spells still occurs, but hey at least i managed to continue my legacy of being online 24/7. Weekends went by pretty fast, nothing new obviously. -_-

Yesterday i attended the Design's Festival Fashion show at the Red Dot Museum. An event full of eccentric and eclectic designers, an overdose of bubbly and weird querky food. It was cameras, lights and actions without a doubt. I swear, the camera flashes still blinds me. Headed off to Lau Pa Sat for dinner, woot barbequed sting ray and kai lan such a heaty but sinful dinner after drowning myself with champagne. Well, i headed home around 12am, still giving 2nd thoughts if i should head down to Sentosa for Zoukout.

Such Dilemma. Argh

.

And obviously, i did! After i received numerous calls by hell alot of people asking where the hell i am. So i decided to throttle my way down to Sentosa via cab at 1am. Well, i was slightly shagged. I can't meet most of my friends there because my handphone battery went kapoof on me the minute i stepped into Sentosa. Well, at least i made some contact before i headed down the damn island, if not i'd be a sitting duck amongst the crowd of over sexily dressed transvestities and beefy beefcakes parading their wider than the ocean chests. The line up for this year's Zoukout was pretty okaye.

I partied for a while before heading into Rasa Sentosa to crash at my friend's hotel room. The view of the party from the room was spectacular la. Crashed for an hour or so, of course with the aid of even more bubbly moet chandon and much more hard liqour to get yourself EXTREMELY high before i immerse myself into a crowd of dancing jigglies and humans in trance of the DJ.

Don't Stop The Music.

I headed back to the hotel at 630am, crashed and woke up at 930am for a dip in the pool. Which was damn refreshing; GOOOD MORNINGGGGGGGGG VIETNAM. Ok that was random. Headed home at 11, which i totally zonked out after that.

Apologies to Serene, Faith, Khai, Hakim and Nasrul because i can't contact you guys when i was there, due to the flat mobile battery. Bleahz.

ANYWAY. Life updates for the past months, weeks, days, etc

Army life, had been pretty much a bahz. I've got less than half a year left until i ORD. I'm counting down the days without a doubt. Camp had pretty much been okaye, alot of tiring moments but it was all good i assume. One by one, friends of mine are ending their nsf armyhood. It's coming to the end of the year now, and almost the entire HQ clan is disappearing. With January approaching, at least i could feel, hear the words ORD screaming out to me.

Alright as for now, i'm gonna leave my entries as it is for now. More of it to come, i promise.

"...higher than heaven..."

Sunday Crap

So it took me ages for me to pen down some thoughts on to this blog. I've got nothing else to blame but the downfall of technology at home. SO my monitor went up in smokes, literally leaving me feeling totally handicapped without the aid of the internet. Man, we humans depend so much on the internet. My room is pretty dead without the buzzing sounds of my cpu and itunes. I've got say 5 - 6 more months until i ORD and another 3 more months until i move into a new house. I'm pretty much counting down days, with a huge smile of my friggin' face. =D

Alright alright, how things are for me? Well, pretty much in both worlds of super hectic and rather relaxed. It's a balance i guess. But sometimes things tend to make me ponder. Making certain unforeseen realities to surface. Which could be a pain in the ass or pretty much satisfying. Life can be so unpredictable, but that's good.

Christmas is around the corner and i can't wait for that. My frequent visits to town seemed to be all festive and rowdy at the same time. But like every christmas period, it brings out the child in me. I love to admire those glittering lights, pretty decorations and much more. And they have toy soldiers this year! Ok being ultra kiddish here man.

It's December, and another conclusive end of year entry will be added very soon. The big "O-Seven". Haha. Good jolly 2008 is coming up! ORD OH! heh.

Okaye i'm off to get my hair cut, more towning before i head to camp tml for a very long week. RAH. Until we meet again.

"...best friend, a new one..."
