Papparazzi sightings


"....Man in striped shirt sighted at Raffles City last monday around 1730 hrs with the company of a female companion. Tall, holding a briefcase, a cup of drink in business attire.. looking staunch and serious and most importantly Stuck up..."

That guy spotted was me and the female was Rubee. Auntie Audrey spotted me and Rubee in City Hall last monday and called my mommie to tell on me... saying that i had a girlfren. haha! what a joke... called her to clarify matters and check out whether the guy was really me. And of course, it turned out to be me.. haha! and she said i look so stuck up.. not like the usual adorable me that makes them so wanna dote on me.. haha! *puking at what i heard from her*

The Great Singapore Sale kicked off today. Was having such high expectations of it after last year's great buy, but it turned out to be quite dissappointing lah. Singaporeans are simply crazy freaks. The moment they see the four letter word S-A-L-E displayed outside the store or on the window, they will flock there and let their plastic do some exercise. Even high end stores are expecting these crowds, not to mention shops like m)phosis which was so damn crowded.....

Fox clothings was such a dissappointment as well. Was expecting it to be some really cool and nice clothing that shouts A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E, it didn't. Got myself 2 nice polo shirts from Nautica at half price. Not too bad... got the approval of both the Sun Princess and the Sun Goddess.. haha! Showed Mommie my buys and she too agreed that it was nice.. and was even asking me why i never buy any bottoms? haha!! she must be thinking i am damn rich... *bleah*... so many things i want to buy... but the shops just do not have what i want. Hopefully they will put out more of their products and i can start spending and re-invent my wardrobe!! WooWee!

My legs are aching so badly now after 1 full day of working and probably watching Shrek 2 caused me to suffer from Economy Class Syndrome.... Rubee and Janice decipher that my chronice pain all over my body is just plain PSYCHOLOGICAL.. they myst be watching too much NIP/TUCK.. i seriously dun think it's psychological. It's just painful and it's PHYSICAL!

I'm starting to peel due to the sun tanning. And my colour is fading AGAIN...arrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhhh.. going to sleep liao! Nasty Boi... hope u had a safe flight and reached Canada safely. Remember to keep in contact!

Out!

+Great SINgapore Sale+

The Great Singapore Sale is finally here for 2004. Still remember all the great buys of last year and still wearing them. Everything's ready to go and feel so hyped up just thinking abt shopping!! WooWee!!!! Definitely be putting up all my great buys here!! Hahaa!!

Nasty Boi's leaving for Canada for her exchange. Another close fren gone and here i am losing another person to gossip to, complain to, seek advice to. She does not know it, but i know i am going to be very sad when she's left for Canada. And thank goodness, she's onli gone for 5 weeks. Before you know it, she will be back! Yeah... but i am feeling sad too... frens around me are going for exchange and going overseas to study. and the WORST of all...all my close frens are flying, leaving only a few here in Lion City to keep in contact with. Some how or rather, i am going through the same phase in secondary school when all my indonesian friends left me and now we hardly keep in contact. +sad+

Counting down... 12 days more before i get my pink i/c.. now, i just have to be contented with this ugly green SAF 11B


So many things to do, so little time. Guess i have been slacking away at home. Daily routine only includes the following:

Eat
Sleep
Bathe
Telly-watching

Getting fat.... Hmm weird to hear that even a SKINNY man like me can get fat haha..I want so many things... most of them from the GSS.. and also my driving license... which almost everybody has it for so long... can't wait to get it quick so that i can drive the new car soon which is coming in 1 week's time... Whoopee!!

While Janice is lamenting on how loserish taiwanese men are going on TV to date.. i think the Xando ad is even more corny and lame... imagining buying a product because you trust Fann Wong and not the results of the product?!!! What a joke... Now i am just content watching telly and luffing my ass off whenever the Wacoal t-shirt bra ad is on....

Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami Nami

::Random thoughts::

Sometimes i feel like i am taken for granted. The feeling is strong and undeniable even though i try to brush it away and tell myself it's okay since we are all friends... it feels as though i was taken on a ride... just like some innocent little boy being coerced into believing anything by using a lollipop. I'm just like a clown.. always out there to please, but nobody will understand what's going on under the facade and the little bright red nose.

Humans are such weird creatures to begin with. Not being contented with being just happy, sad, angry and the basics, they must be paranoid, full of pride and all the extras. So many classic examples of such people i have seen within the past 2 years of my life, regardless of me being in the Army or my friends around me.

How i wish i am forever 16 going on 17. It is the age that people are really enjoying life at its fullest (at least that's what i feel, not being tainted by the society.

Always wax lyrical about how important friendships are and how much i value friends as they form an important part of my life, i am starting to think otherwise. Friendships are actually so volatile. They can be really strong like a covalent bond, or really brittle and subject to destruction when faced with pressure. All the friends forever lines are just paying lip service. How many of us out there actually has got friends that you really regard as friends? I believe it can be counted with just one hand. I am sick and tired of always being the trying party who's always making the effort to maintain the friendship built over the years. I am sick of being the one being snapped at all the time. I'm sick of being the tolerating party that always have to endure your mood swings.

I feel old. Mentally.I abhor the idea of growing up. Too many worries. My ultimate dream now. Migrate out of this country and open a farm.

The life here is making me so sick. It's making a depressed person. Somebody i don't even want to see myself evolving to. Always being Mr Nice is making me sick and tired of life. And i realised. People don't value me at all. Maybe that's what the world is like. People uses each other. And i made the choice to be used. Who can i blame. Myself.

I often ask myself: Why is it that i am always fearful of breaking promises to my so-called friends? Is it because i fear being alone and pitiful with no friends to call of my own? Do i want them to feed my ever-inflating ego? or just simply i am brought up the traditional way of life and just an innocent little boy who still believes something bad will happen to me if i break any promises?

I can't even answer myself. and perhaps the only logical explanation is i brought these to myself.

I hate myself for being so naive sometimes, or maybe all the time. I hate myself for bringing all these miseries to myself. I hate myself for living in fear all the time.

I have an inferiority complex.

::Power of 4 reigns""


It's been a long time since i last blog... after the very much hated day that i had to go through facing some bastard at work...

Crazy has got to be the word to describe the past few days... being snapped by so many people at the same time... wonder if i am really the one at fault... but who cares.... Have arrived at the stage when i cannot really be bothered about the cattiness of people.. and the best solution is to just keep quiet and not say anything..

"...The more u say, the more u get"

Been so busy preparing for Rubee's 21st Birthday. Needles, thread, glue, Sewing Machine (??!!).. all were out in full force.. and only till last night.(or rather this morning)everything went back to my mommie... and my room is finally slightly tidied up and free from threads strewn around my room.... tomorrow's the party and bet it will be a great time... but just simply too tired to stay up till 12 midnight to send her an SMS.. and here goes...

SELAMAT HARI JADI.. Pechos Grande!!


haha! go figure out what Pechos Grande means....

Anyway... i had such a wonderful today... first time after so long since we got commissioned... i felt the power of 4 reigning again... well.. it used to be the power of 3 and the lost 'sista'... had such a good time crapping away over dessert at Sim Lim Square (or izzit tower??!!.. never seem to be able to differentiate).. today seems to be the day where we just practically suan Yingkai... haha!! first time the target's not Lala Boi!! haha!! Thanks peeps for giving me such a good time!

Watched Cookin' today at student's price... really good show and can't imagine they managed to pull off really spastic antics and i was luffing like mad! so loud my laughter were that the people (some people from the spastic association or home) were looking at me and wondering who's the mad one... haha!! i must be mad!

More later.... but before i leave, jsut want to tap on rubee's birthday to make a wish for the world to be a more peaceful one where people will treat each other nicely and stop snapping at each other!

ARGHH!!! the cats below my flat are making lewd noises again!! got to start throwing water at them.. haha!!

::virgin ride::

After a reallybad morning yesterday.... decided to ask Jumari to give me a life to Woodlands MRT... on his bike.First time in 21 years of living on this world... i am pillion riding on a bike... my first time was given to him like that... and the feeling was so good...felt the wind beating on my face.... and he was driving like 120 km/h... really really shiok.. imagine travelling on the road on the kind of speed in the car...can't feel a single thing one... and squeezing through the cars... i lurrvee that feeling...

Anyway.. back to why i was so f*cking pissed yesterday... knew it was going to be a bad day since i see so many people that i do not like first thing on a monday morning....went back to camp to finish up the report presentation to Bastard boss and he justs wrecked my day after that... and this is not the first time that he spoils my day... seems like every time i have meetings with him or just seeing him.. my day will be bad every single time...

So it started with me going to his office with a whole bunch of people... and sitting down there explaining the report... and he kept on harping on the fact that we are very late in submiiting the report since this thing has been dragging on for the past year...and i was the cause of this delay...come on man... u were the f*cking bastard who didn't want to lay a single finger on this matter and just starts making new decisions when we submit the report and have to changee everytime...... then he started to have his own thinking again... and just die die want to stick to that mindset of his.. when all along we were there trying to explain things to him properly and what it should be... and he jsut keep acting like a little kid... "oh.. u people did this? new dimension oredi... What the F*ck?? new dimension?? what new dimension? all along we have been doing this and u dun even bother to come down and direct...

Throughout the entire meeting which later ended up in my office because Bastard boss wants to look thorugh some of the account cards.... and he just so happened to check the good cards.... and he can make remarks like "From what i see.. ur account card are not that messy what! it's not as messy as u have described to me...... screw you! u just happened to see the surface and u still dun know how rotten the rest of the entire account cards are...OK my ASS!!...

Throughout the meeting, i was controlling my temper, but were busy flipping my eyeballs to show my dissatisfaction with him, flipping the pages loudly, bad body language that's it... and Bastard realised it and didn't want to further agitate me..

so what if u are a two crab while i am a two bar? without NSFs like us... u will suffer real bad! who's going to do all ur job? who's going to be your scapegoat all the time? who's going to be the information provider for important meetings that you always so last minute want us to give u info and make urself look good? who works late into the night to help finish work so that u will look good and can use all my hard work to go kiss the ass of chief? You think u are able to go jogging with him and proclaim all the excellent work that you have done when it is us NSFs who are doing it for u? Who do u think you are when u keep loudly express that u have so much power as a freaking Hd Log of Signals Formation when Signals Formation is so bloody small a formation in the entire SAF?

you are just nothing


So mad i was that i just dumped my only copy of the report which i have painstakingly been doing for the past year into the rubbish bin after Bastard criticised that all the work i have done is useles... for christ sake! at some point of time, u were the one giving directions... aren't u insulting ur own capabilities then? Ha. Ha. Ha.

USELESS BASTARD


theraputic... more later....

this world is just too complicated that people are living in such chaos! so much complaints, grievances and angst!

frustrAted*


I hate it when people take me for granted.... hate it so much when questions were asked over.. and over.... and over again and i answered over.... and over...and over again... and nothing just seems to be drilled into his head....

#$*% you


Just like i have told u so many times... i have lost touch with work and handed over to you. Things changes very fast.... and new work processes are implemented without MY knowing.... how do u expect me to be able to help you all the time.. i will be gone in a few weeks time.... argh!

Do i sound mean? i think i do... But maybe it's because how i took over from my upperstudy that makes me feels this way... I took over without much coaching and assistance from Mun Wai... and i kinda started everything from scratch.... picking up things through scoldings and learning from there... i had nobody to turn to ask every single day... Perhaps what Chris and Kai said is right... let them learn through their mistakes... they must do that to learn and not always being spoonfed by their upperstudies...

I pride myself for being able to pick up my work fast (and i mean really fast...) In less than 1 week of me taking over... i received so much blasting from people till i almost cried and wanted to quit... but after that, i became a terror and people in the entire SAF who has got dealings with me are quite scared of me because they know i am somebody not to be funny with and they can't pull any tricks on me.... I was capable of being really nasty and known for blasting people on the phone and shooting really long emails when they throw me nasty comments.... yet all these blastings have also made me many friends in the army... and many of them are old people... i built my network up from scratch... i had no help....

And now... you are expecting so much help from me and i just can;t bring myself to always be there helping... so many times... i wanted to just ignore everything... i've warned you before that you will start to hate me because u will uncover lots of things that i did not teach you or help you with... well... this is the time now....

aaahhhh... this is so theraputic*

::retail*THERAPY::


Retail therapy is good... so good that i am feeling so blissful now.. haha!

SMS Rubee last night to go shopping... aim was to do Brainless Shopping.. or rather.. shop for her birthday dress... man.. we tried so many dresses on her till i think she is so sianz of trying on clothes...

After so much of trying at so many places.. finally we bought a classic baby doll dress... very very demure and classic look... but still need some form of stitching here and there... bought myself a springfield shirt too... like the stripes of green, grey and white... even though rubee was complaining that she would prefer me to buy the pink one but i just cannot carry it off....

Now the thing now is to get some colour on my body so that the shirt will look nicer on me.. YEAH!

Felt so much like an auntie today.. haha! did so much household chores... in such a short amount of time too.... ha! I AM GOOD!

Now we just got to start panicking because we all realise that we dun have enuff time to finish everything before the party and we are setting very strict and impossible deadline for our tasks to be done..... *bleah*

Before i end off... let me tell you the greatest joke of the year... Yixiong asked me innocently...

YX: Are u and rubee attached?
ET: Huh? are u mad? NO! NO! NO!.. we are just very very good friends.. what makes u think that way?
YX: No lah... cos I always see u two together.... then she say u asked out her to go shopping... so i tot that way lor...
ET: haha!!! okie okie.. no lah... we are just very very close friends.... i believe in platonic relationship... and if every girl who is close to me is my girlfriend.. wah liew... i am going to be a casanova! ahah!!

Just reminds me of the incident of me and wan'er... but then again.... it's another story all together...

::random thoughts::

Never in my life have i felt so anti social.

"You want a drink?" no.

"You want to play?" no.

"You want to eat?" no.

I wondered why. Was invited by Janice and Rubee to their celebratory party for P.I.M.P... didn't want to disappoint both the ladies and decided to go.... kinda expected to be in an entirely different group of people... Went there and met up with them... Saw Ah Yao and Weilan there too and had a nice chat with Weilan...

And that was it... i felt anti social.. mainly because i didn't want to touch beer... me = zero tolerance for beer... single drip and i will be performing the Merlion Trick for everybody.... so very much wanted to minimise my intake of beer.. preferably zero intake...

Half a mug of beer was enough to send me burping and nauseous the entire evening... and even as i am typing this now... i am still burping... not a good feeling... really bad... proceeded to the dance floor and things got a bit better... the live band was quite good.. and got the party mood started..... danced the night away.... maybe it was me not feeling high and drunk that spoilt the entire evening... time passes by so slowly... and i feel old and geeky.... kept missing the beats and rhythm... felt so tired and sore after a short while... damn! what's happening to me? decided to make an early exit in order not to spoil the committee's celebratory mood. Of course, i got to finish up the entire report tomorrow and i needed some rest to work tomorrow, instead of sleeping the entire day and not doing anything productive when i got the final meeting with my boss first thing on Monday morning....I feel so apologetic to the 2 ladies.... but i realised by leaving, it would be the best alternative to reach a win-win situation

As i look back and reflect on the evening.... i see an old man trapped inside a young adult's body. I feel i erected a protective shield to my surroundings and not allowing people to get to know me any better... mood swings are oh so frequent nowadays... i wonder why..

It could be the Army.. it could be me realising a change of environment and feeling hard to step out of the comfort zone... it could be me feeling sick and tired of clubbing as though it does not belong to my generation anymore.... It could be work that made me so dull... or it could even be the fact that i know i cannot get myself dead drunk and smashed because i have got friends who needs assistance when they get drunk and it kinda automatically transfers the liabilities of caretaking to me... damn my character.. why am i always being so nice to people and putting people above me?

I always tell myself that i want to be around friends because i miss them so much and there's always so much to talk about... but deep down... a voice is telling me that i want my own personal space... and i need it... it's so hard to strike a right balance....

I want to break out of this shield that i unknowingly erected and created... but i know it's going to be hard... i dun want people to see my flaws... i dun want to trust people too easily.... acquaintances - i have many... but True Friends.... how many do i really have who knows me out and out?

I wonder.....
