No prizes for guessing why i'm up so late at night again... and you would have thought the nightmare was over once ndp was over... but hey, i'm a willing party... Guess i've been working on this website too damn long to leave it alone...
Yesterday, i was down at ang mo kio to visit a fren.. After a very long time i might add... Remember the days when i used to stay at my grand aunt's place over there... The sights, sounds and smells of the place really do bring back nostalgic memories... Walking there in the evening used to be what my granduncle and grand aunt used to do every evening after dinner.. It was kinda like an everyday routine... Healthy living in its own special singaporean way... Am ashamed now cuz i just realised how long i have not visited them... Hmmm, in fact, i only do that nowadays during chinese new year to shamelessly collect ang pows... :(
Really have to kick the habit of working at night.. It has become a custom for me now to sleep at 4, go to work, sleep till lunch and officially start work after lunch... BAD BAD habit.. Boss advised me to kick the habit quick before it starts to affect me on a more permanant basis.. However, i think i am beyond hope..hehe...
Back to finish the last bit before i sleep.... Miss all my frens and especially corrinne... Damn, i sound like i'm in another country.... Nauctical land i guess...

That time of the month again!
For the first time in a very long time, i have more than $700 in my account, one week after my pay day!!! YEAPIES!!!!!
For those who know me well enough, you can testify to the fact that i will always ask you what savings are... Hehe... Its just never been a habit of mine to put cash aside in a bank or at home, to let it rot and grow interest or something like that...
You could argue that wat if you need it for a rainy day? Den i would counter that what if that rainy day never comes? You could save all your life, only to have your family ore relatives or whoever you decide to leave all your money for, to spend all up for you faster than you can spell your name backwards....
But sadly for me, i know this habit won't last... thanks to my neverending diet of fags and "fine dining"... okok not that fine but still fine enough for me..hehe
Womad this friday plus clubing this sat... wonder how much i'll be left with by the end of the week?

A Funnny Life...
U know, its really funny how unpredictable life can get...
For those of u who dun already know, our fav Manda the Panda was in the hospital from friday. Seems there was a growth in her stomach...
Thankfully, she went for the op and is resting at home now, with all still intact...
However, the point is such...
Ain't it funny how we often moan and groan about how life is? As in we complain so much that all is not going according to how WE like it and how WE feel that it should be... Sometimes, we just really dun realise hoe lucky we are to even be alive, to enjoy this thing called life... Think of all the unborn children, who are killed even before seeing the light of day? Abortions and miscarriages blah blah...
Rather than get all moody and churn out countless philosophies of life, I choose to live tomorrow as if it were my last.... Thats right... You'll never know if i get run over on my way to work or somebody decides to jump off a building and so coincidently happen to land on me(which incidently i feel is possibly THE WORST way to die).
Are you ready?

Its finnaly over!!!
Its offically over...
My job for the last one year has come to an end. The NDP Parade 2005 has come and gone.
And within that frame of time, i have learnt several valuable lessons.
1. I realised how free people are when it comes to being critical. At first, it seemed like no one would bother, but as time grew by, boy did they bother!!!
2. The amount of late nights spent updating websites is absolutely ridiculous!!!! I have a new found respect for people who update entire sites for corporations and companys... Wouldn't consider this job for now.. Would prolly die of stress...
3. You would have absolutely no time whatsoever for spouses, girlfrens, boyfrens and frens.... Basically all your saturdays are burnt and pretty soon, everyday is just known as work!!!
4. The tremendous amount of effort put in by countless organisations is just amazing.. Too many people to mention....
With that all said and done, its back to my regular intelligent job... Wonder when would be the next time i get involved in something so big scale again? Hope it isn't anytime soon.... Need the time to recover....
Anyways, next on the agenda, WOMAD!!! Anybody interested? Tag me!!! need to consolidate the number and get the tix!!! Basically we lookin to go for the first night!!!
And after that, KL maybe????

Finally, some time!!!!
Finally had some time to catch a movie... ITs really been a while... The last time i actually caught a movie in the theaters was Star Wars Ep 3... U do the math...
Anyways, went with corrinne to watch Charlie & The Chocolate Factory... Hehe.. swear its like a childhood dream come true.. For me, Charlie & The Chocolate Factory is like Harry Potter to the younger ones nowadays... I can still remember the days whereby i would bring the book to toilet, and refuse to come out of it till i've read till my heart's content.. And usually, that meant most of it... Hehe...
So anyways, enjoyed the show thoroughly... they certainly got the right person to play Willy Wonka if u ask me.. Johnny Depp seems oh so perfectly essantric(spelling?) in the show.. Perhaps the only disappointment for me was that they decided to end the story at the first part and not carry on the story in the second part, as in the second book... Now that would have been a special effects extravaganza..
Caught Stealth(Finally!!!) the following day... Being a sucker for planes and war and all that bullshit(that would explain y i signed on?), i was having high expectations for that show.... And i would say to a certain degree, it didn't disappoint... Completely caught up in the aerodynamics display as well as the thought that if there were really such sophisticated weapons.... Makes u wonder doesn't it???
NDP is 3 days away... after that, its back to the same ol job for me... Hopefully, that would free up more time for me to catch shoes and do stuff... Though i must say i'm gonna kinda miss this nauctanal lifestyle that i've seemed to have developed....
