I am deleting this blog and getting a new one. My now self is too different from my old self (you can see for yourself, point, and laugh at my old posts) to continue posting on the same blog for so long.

Besides, I'm too lazy to fix the sidebar.

So, here is my new blog:

What? You thought I would get another fancy url?

Caught, caught in the way
In the way of a bus
Oh oh, the lease is up
They break our legs
To prove a point
Oh, the lease is up
Oh oh, the lease is over

A bible in one hand
He makes decisions
Oh oh, the lease is up
Ordered his gun
And it's done and it's done and it's done
An hysteric at the top
Saying everything is safe
Ordered his gun and it's done and it's done

God is going to get sick of me
And the accident
That takes the beat from my heart
Will look like it was my fault, my fault

Spend one more day
Backed into a corner
Oh oh, the lease is up
Impossible to lose
Support gets stronger
Each time something frightens them
You'll set it right
I know, I know, hey hey hey

You said I get it, I get it, I get it alright
And that nothing can be taken
And that nothing can be taken from me
After I've stopped waiting
For an ambulance to come and get me
Hey hey hey

God is Going to get sick of me
And the accident
That takes the beat from my heart
Will look like his
It was my fault, my fault

Every night after 11pm, I see all these taxis with their beautifully lit up blue and yellow lights driving by and I get this strong urge to flag all of them down, keep them in my pocket and save them up for another day.

I think I've held in my shit for too long and it all went to my head or something.

Yes!! Finally she's out of the toilet!!

Ahhh... That feels better.

The Placebo gig sucked. Placebo's attitude summed up = I'm too big for a place like this, can't wait for the gig to be over. The sound system made it look/sound like they were lip synching, and I could hear Brian's electric guitar strings being strummed over the actual music. The models were distracting especially when they came out and did rock-star carat stuff like walk down the runway and touch the audiences hands- like wtf man, nobody in here bought 2 cds to touch your filthy arrogant hands.

We bought 2 cds to touch Brian's filthy arrogant hands.

I feel like I'm walking through one big block of air. It's too hot and smoky and suffocating. The Boss' long face complements mine perfectly. My pimple is screaming for me to carve it out using a razorblade and spare it the torment.

(his journal entry before the concert)
"03.17.2006
Asia is the Jam.

Singapore is home to the world’s largest water fountain, aptly named the fountain of wealth. I put my hand in the water, made a silent wish and walked around its epicenter three times. This is what you’re supposed to do to receive a life of good fortune. Thank you God of Architectural Achievement. I can go home now.

If good fortune doesn’t come in the form of the dollar, I can at least say i’m fortunate enough to have seen Toca fall UP two different flights of stairs in the last two weeks. The first was an escalator in the UK, where upon losing grip on his 6 bags of Mariah Carey brand luggage, he stumbled backward bearing his weight on the skinny businessman behind him, while is legs continued up the escalator until he was practically upside down.

The other was your run of the mill staircase and classic the-flip-flop-didn’t-make-it scenario. He looks sad when he stumbles, with his bangles and beads making a great noise and his computer and gnome spilling up and down the awkward walk. But I can’t help but laugh. He’s a grown man after all, strong and sophisticated. He’s just clumsy sometimes. As long he’s not hurt I don’t mind feeling cooler next to him, if only because I can place on foot in front of the other without problems persisting.

OMG. My elderly Chinese room-service waiter, who’s look’s eerily like the guy who fostered Gizmo before he was stolen and spawned Gremlins, just brought me my lunch order. Yes I requested a coke with my fish and chips, but I didn’t say anything about extra ice and lemon. My cola is stacked! He knows! Or worse. He wants the M to the R to the tap that AZ.

Tonight in Singapo:
The hottest women get together to celebrate the 50 most eligible bachelors at a party around the corner from our show.
Make that 51, yo.
I’ll be there right after I flow.

Asia is the jam."

post-jason syndrome... he is sooo fucking sexy and funny and intelligent and talented and charming and geeky and i swear, yo.
who the hell wears sport shoes and jeans and a plain white shirt with a cap on backwards to a concert.
none other than the very sexy jason mraz- oooh GOD i so want to touch him.

Okay enough of youtube.. more of kontraband. Haha.

Charlene's old posts reminded me of how I always get a stomachache exactly when assembly starts. How many times have I suffered in agony in the toilet biting my pinafore and screaming while I hear my friends sing mari kita. And teachers actually "discourage girls from going to the toilet during assembly". What fuck?! This kinda uncontrollable thing how can discourage. No wonder now majority of us got problems with shee shee or pang sai.

I'm losing my edge
The kids are coming up from behind.
I'm losing my edge
I'm losing my edge to the kids from France and from London
But I was there

I was there in 1968
I was there at the first Can show in Cologne
I'm losing my edge
I'm losing my edge to the kids whose footsteps I hear
When they get on the decks
I'm losing my edge to the Internet seekers who can tell me
Every member of every good group from 1962 to 1978
I'm losing my edge
To all the kids in Tokyo and Berlin
I'm losing my edge to the art-school Brooklynites
In little jackets and borrowed nostalgia for the unremembered eighties

But I'm losing my edge
I'm losing my edge, but I was there
I was there
But I was there

I'm losing my edge
I can hear the footsteps every night on the decks
But I was there
I was there in 1974 at the first Suicide practices
In a loft in New York City
I was working on the organ sounds with much patience
I was there when Captain Beefheart started up his first band
I told him, "Don't do it that way, you'll never make a dime"
I was there
I was the first guy playing Daft Punk to the rock kids
I played it at CBGB's
Everybody thought I was crazy
We all know
I was there
I've never been wrong

I used to work in the record store
I had everything before anyone
I was there in the Paradise Garage DJ booth with Larry Levan
I was there in Jamaica during the great sound clashes
I woke up naked on the beach in Ibiza in 1988

But I'm losing my edge to better-looking people
With better ideas and more talent
And they're actually really, really nice
I'm losing my edge

I heard you have a compilation of every good song ever done by anybody
Every great song by the Beach Boys
All the underground hits
All the Modern Lovers tracks
I heard you have a vinyl of every Niagra record on German import
I heard that you have a white label of every seminal Detroit techno hit - 1985, '86, '87
I heard that you have a CD compilation of every good '60s cut and another box set from the '70s

I hear you're buying a synthesizer and an arpeggiator and are throwing your computer out the window because you want to make something real
You want to make a Yaz record
I hear that you and your band have sold your guitars and bought turntables
I hear that you and your band have sold your turntables and bought guitars
I hear everybody that you know is more relevant than everybody that I know

But have you seen my records
This Heat, Pere Ubu, Outsiders, Nation of Ulysses, Mars, The Trojans, The Black Dice, Todd Terry, the Germs, Section 25, Althea and Donna, Sexual Harrassment, a-ha, Pere Ubu, Dorothy Ashby, PIL, the Fania All-Stars, the Bar-Kays, the Human League, the Normal, Lou Reed, Scott Walker, Monks, Niagra, Joy Division, Lower 48, the Association, Sun Ra, Scientists, Royal Trux, 10cc, Eric B. and Rakim, Index, Basic Channel, Soulsonic Force ("just hit me"!), Juan Atkins, David Axelrod, Electric Prunes, Gil! Scott! Heron!, the Slits, Faust, Mantronix, Pharaoh Sanders and the Fire Engines, the Swans, the Soft Cell, the Sonics, the Sonics, the Sonics, the Sonics.

And I just watch you slip away
How close am I to losing you

Hey are you awake

Well can I ask you
About today
How close am I to losing you

Here is a nice quote from Samantha Lee's new blog which I am very pleased about because it is one of the nicest things anyone has ever said about me:

"i realized i've always needed an insane person to be my benchmark.

for me, the moment of epiphany was when i met rachel ho, who successfully showed me how much more there actually was outside my eleven-year-old quiet boring little mind. and how much more there actually was outside my quiet boring little communist primary school.

i met her on the first day of primary five, i think. and she cranked the tiny quiet radio in my brain up to its maximum. by the end of primary school i was walking around with loud music playing in my brain all the time.

katong convent. met crazy natashia lee at the first publications meeting. she threw the radio in my head in a corner and installed a state-of-the-art sony hi-fi system. it played at middle volume, but now i had surround sound."

I got a hand, so I got a fist
So I got a plan
It's the best that I can do
Now we'll say it's in God's hands
But God doesn't always have the best goddamn plans, does he

I ain't quite the beauty
Who pulls out two guns and shoots at the pretty, pretty pure white
Gotta keep thinking things, hunters and kings
To block out the view, I gotta get
New bell to ring, new song to sing
A steady hand to ring
A readiness of things I do
Plan to bring to the people
People I can trick 'em into thinking anything cause you know
Oh rust it just right in the light
It's gold, it's gold and you know

I got water and holes in my hands
I'm a digger of holes in the land
It's the easiest way
And you know
It's the easiest way
So I go

Lalalalalala...

I got water and I got holes, so
Lalalalalala...
The sons and daughters of hungry ghosts, oh
Lalalalalala..
I got water and I got holes, so
Lalalalalala..
The sons and daughters of hungry ghosts

I can't believe in the guns
I can't believe in the view
I sing, sing
Lalalalalala...
I can't believe in those hunter and kings
I got a new plan to bring
I got a new song to sing
And it goes
Lalalalalala...

And you know it's the easiest way
So I go

Suki was a kid, she liked to hangout in the graveyard
She did brass rubbings, she learned you never had to press hard
When she finished hanging out she was all alone
She decided that she better check in at home
There was an awful row between her mum and dad
They said she hadn't done this, she hadn't done that
If she wanted to remain inside the family home
She'd have to tow the line, she'd have to give it a go
It didn't suit Suki
She took her things and left

Suki was a kid, she liked to hang out in the art school
She didn't enrol, but she wiped the floor with all the arseholes
She took a bijou flat with the fraternity cat
She hid inside the attic of the sculpture building
She had a slut slave and his name was Dave
She said ‘Be my photo bitch and I'll make you rich'
He didn't believe her but the boy revered her
He got her meals and he got her a bed
He watched behind the screen and she started to undress
He never got far
Just looking and playing guitar

Autumn hanging down all the trees are draped like chandeliers
Suki saw the beauty but she wasn't wet behind the ears
She had an A1 body and a face to match
She didn't have money, she didn't have cash
With the winter coming on, and the attic cold
She had to press her nose on the refectory wall
They served steamed puddings she went without
She had to pose for life for all the scholars of art
She didn't feel funny, she didn't feel bad
Peeling away everything she had
She had the grace of an eel, sleek and stark
As the shadows played tricks on the girl in the dark

Dear Friends,

There is no easy way for me to say this.

Diary-X has suffered from an unrecoverable drive failure. Due to a combination of issues, the last backup (from December 2004) contained only configuration files and other non-essential files. We do not have any other backups for the site. All journals, user information, forum posts, templates, images, and everything else are all irrecoverably lost.

In the past several hours, I have had to decide whether or not I should put the site back online at all. Only those users who backed up their own journals (either using the journal download tool or otherwise saving each entry) would be able to reconstruct their journals. Everyone else would have to start over. Whatever developed as a result would still be called Diary-X, but it wouldn't be the same.

I believe it makes the most sense to close Diary-X permanently. Tentatively, the site will go dark on March 31st, 2006.

Thank you for being so generous with your donations during this crisis. Your generosity and kind words were the sole bright spots during this disaster. If you would like a refund, please send an e-mail to mdeken@gmail.com with your name and PayPal e-mail address, and we will process it as soon as we can, hopefully within 24 hours.

If you would like to discuss this matter further, you may contact me at the address below. I will do my best to answer your questions if they were not addressed here.

Regretfully,

You try to make me wait
You come around when it's come undone
Everybody makes you late
And it's never you because you're always thinking
I try making you wait
And you give me some like you give it good

But it seems it's mine that always keep on stinging

You try making me wait

To all cat high boys who took off their shirts and body surfed or simply just plain enjoyed the music (ignoring outraged cries from the principal and staff) when The Suns played at your school, I applaud(e?) you all and am infinitely envious, sexy boys.

I heard cat high also has a bookstore that sells cds? Whether or not that's true, it's such a fucking good idea! We should have had one in the canteen, selling cds of overseas and local bands. And we should have had gigs. And we should have taken off our pinafores and body surfed and danced with only our panties and blouses on!!!!

I still don't understand the nails must be short rule. Boss' explanation: "Obviously it's so that you all won't hurt yourselves when you pah chiu cheng."

Hmm. True, true. Boss quite smart.

They even cheat their workers. Dragging pay with excuses after excuses, purposely miscalculating the pay according to the number of people who went for the interview, not telling their scouts beforehand that you have to work 7 days before it's counted (i.e. Working 3 days then quitting, you won't get pay for those 3 days).

Now that I've worked for Bitchy Hogwashing Idiots (a.k.a B.H.I a.k.a The Scam Company), I can now say with full confidence and wisdom, that whenever people tell you that most modelling agencies and advertising agencies are all a scam...
Believe them. Because most of the time, it's true.

READ THIS!
Posted by Tom on Feb/02/06 - 2:15AM CST

February will be the last month Walagata will be hosting Free Accounts. As the one-man team behind Walagata, I have had an enjoyable time running this service for the past 2+ years. Yet, supporting well over 100,000 free members takes a great deal of time and energy, with no financial gain. New responsibilities in my life have left me with less free time than I have had the luxury of in the past 2 years, so starting on March 1st, all free accounts at Walagata will be turned off.

If you currently have a Free Membership with Walagata and would like to continue hosting your files here, please click the Upgrades tab and purchase one of any of the available memberships. I know many of you have been active members since 2003, and I hope Walagata will continue to be your file host well into the future.

What does this mean for paying members? The storage space on all accounts will be doubled. Bandwidth limits for all accounts will also be doubled. The overall speed of the service will also increase. An added staff member will also allow for better and faster support. Other than that, you will notice little to no change, and your account will not be affected in any negative way.

Should you have any questions regarding these new changes, feel free to send me an e-mail. Just click the Support tab at the top.

Not like I know what it's like in a mixed school but I do agree Valentine's Day was quite a nice day to be in KC. I admit I was always too lazy to buy little presents for you all, but I liked getting little things like sweets, little flowers, girly hugs and kisses from people like Varsha, Joanna, especially the always gift-bearing Sutrisno. Hehheh.

Okay, I suddenly don't know how to end this entry. What the fuck lah, I feel damn annoyed like my brain is out of control :S

I learned you have done something (pierce a ring) on your lower jaws.
If it is true, I must first of all, feel sadden by the fact that you are not spending money wisely.
2ndly, that does not make you look more pretty.It makes you look weird becos you are not a movie star or singer who always try to make stunting things to attract attention.You are a ordinary person (but you still look pretty) without those weird tghing on your face.
Please do remove such unsual thing. Also you better stay away from the person or friend who tell you to do this.
See you soon.

Singapore govt gives $100,000 to Christian anti-gay group

By giving $100,000 to Liberty League, as reported by ChannelNewsAsia (CNA), the Singapore government is helping to promote a religious cause founded on unscientific and psychologically damaging methods.

Liberty League intends to “promote gender and sexual health” through “conduct[ing] sexuality talks in schools” – CNA report.

However, Liberty League’s website promotes a book ‘Freedom of Choice’. The book’s subjects were almost totally from the Christian group, Choices, which runs programmes teaching that homosexuality is a psychological dysfunction. The book thus promotes this kind of pseudo-therapy propagated by fundamentalist Christian groups.

Mr Leslie Lung, the founder of Liberty League has long been known to be associated with “ex-gay” ministries. The “ex-gay” or “reparative therapy” movement is strongly associated with the more extreme churches in the United States. Liberty League’s website itself uses terms such as “sexual brokenness”, “addiction and abuse”.

In a seminar organised by the Graduates Christian Fellowship on 13 October 2005, which described homosexuality as a psychological problem, Liberty League was touted as resource for counseling. It was recommended by Mr Tan Thuan Seng, the President of Focus on the Family, Singapore (FOTF-Sg) who is known to regularly give anti-gay talks in Christian circles.

FOTF-Sg is an affiliate of Christian- and US-based Focus on the Family as can be seen from the latter’s website. The anti-gay, proselytising stance of Focus on the Family is well known. One may therefore infer that since it was recommended by FOTF-Sg, Liberty League shares a similar position regarding faith and homosexuality.

Liberty League is also lauded on the website of Exodus Singapore, the Christian ex-gay group. It too speaks of “sexual brokenness” and teaches “God’s plan for sexuality”. On its Policy page, it says, “Exodus Asia Pacific cites homosexual tendencies as one of many disorders that beset fallen humanity. Christ offers a healing alternative to those with sexual and relational problems.”

An 18-year-old student who had attended one of Mr Lung’s earlier talks in her school wrote in her report (deposited with People Like Us) that she had to “sit through a one-hour treatise on why homosexuality was wrong, and if we had any same-sex attractions, we should immediately seek help and ‘turn straight’.

“He made several references to God and the Bible during the talk,” she wrote, and that “it was pretty insensitive to everyone non-Christian.”

It should be noted that in his statement to CNA, Mr Lung spoke of “coming out of [homosexuality]”. At first glance, this phrase appears similar to “coming out” – the well-accepted process of healthy psychological development for gay and lesbian persons – but it is in fact a trojan horse for the opposite: destructive self-denial of a person’s own sexuality.

PLU finds it reprehensible that while the World Health Organization1 and reputable psychological associations2 no longer treat homosexuality as a disorder, the National Volunteer and Philanthropy Centre (NVPC) would still fund an organization that has been founded on this unscientific and damaging premise. (More information on this in Annex.)

The government needs to explain why the NVPC thinks $100,000 is money well spent when given to a disguised religious cause based on unscientific psychotherapeutic approaches that seek to deform young people’s sense of self-worth and psychological health.

PLU also notes that the published guidelines for eligibility for funding from the NVPC include the stipulation that all programmes must be secular, and believes the government needs to explain its grant to Liberty League when even 18 year-old students can so clearly spot its religious agenda.

The government also needs to explain how this grant is consistent with Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong’s claim that the government is not homophobic, made in a comment to the Foreign Correspondents Association on 6 October 2005.

I'm NOT trying to create a dispute whatsoever..

I saw this today:
"Islam: The religion perfected for the entire human race"

Bold and in big letters. I'm not a staunch catholic but in terms of logic (?) maybe this sentence isn't so... tactful/respectful/appropriate.

But then, I don't know much, it just intrigues me alot. The owner of this sign (hung at the back windshield of the car) seems to be a very staunch/proud/strong believer of his faith. And no, I don't think that's a bad thing. It just seems very provoking (perfected.. entire human race).. to me. Not the sentence itself, but the position of the bright yellow diamond sign, etc.

What do you think?

(I'm just asking for honest comments here out of curiosity. If you're going to go, "People have the right to hang whatever they want wherever they like, you should mind your own business blahblah", then I think you should take your own advice and buzz off.)

My mother called me in the middle of the afternoon just to tell me that she's giving me three days to take off the "knob on my lips".
When did she learn how to use words like "knob" anyway?

Must be she complain to her cheebye friends and they tell her (in a mix of cantonese and chinese of course) something like, "*gasp* Oh my god! Are you serious? That is like so totally unbecoming! *lowered voice* You know I've heard rumours that only prostitutes do these kind of things, and when they take it out there's a scar the size of a 50 cent coin!!! Luckily my obedient and clever (in other words nerdy and no common sense) daughter doesn't do these kind of rubbish."

Only these kinda smart advices from her cheebye friends she will follow and believe.

Hmm.. Guess she's serious about me taking it out then. I don't really want to go through CNY with the piercing anyway. My ears will drop off by the time my relatives all finish nagging at me.

Time to buy earstick..

My 27th may 2001 Westlife concert ticket!!! *breaks down*

Okay fine, just to redeem myself: I may not like them anymore but just for the sake of nostalgia. Westlife represented my childhood.

And the next thing I know, I was out of my body
I noticed a tunnel opening up, a very dark tunnel, with rings in it
And a very white, tiny white second light at the very end that we were moving down toward
The tunnel was very interesting because it was full of rings, like a child's play tube out in the backyard
We made it through the tunnel and we got to the white light
The little hole had opened up and we got to the white light
And my life was shown very quickly like an old fashioned movie
And everything from when I was very, very young that I thought, did, said
Everything I should have done, everything I didn't do
I was so aware
And I said, "No,"
I said, "I wanna go back, I wanna go back, I wanna go back"

I washed your car last week
You gave me a kiss on the cheek
I asked if you would be my sweet
You said, "Baby not me"

I mowed your lawn yesterday
You gave me six bucks
And I say, "Lets have some lemonade"
You said, "Go away"

I built your cupboards out of my bones
Shovelled your snow with an ice cream cone
I asked if you would be my own
You said, "Leave me alone"

I raked your leaves with my toes
Tilled your garden with my nose
Asked if you would be my bo
You said, "No, no, no"
You said, "No, no, no"

Wah lau. I am still a student okay! Cheebye. This is just a transition.
If I knew first 3 months jc got student ezlink card to take I confirm squeeze all my blood out to get in. Must be another incentive for student to go first 3 months. Now must wait 6 months until get into poly before I can get students ezlink card. Shit lah! Better try and get into poly quickly, any early admission exercise they carry out I better go.
Or maybe I just make ezlink card in a sec 3 girl's name.

She pierce her tongue before, that's why her tongue not working and she think the soup is nice when it's so salty like knn. Kidney Failure Dish. The fusilli one taste very nice though, we eat already got christmas spirit again.
Funny christmas I had with Ah Ong. We borrow bicycle from neighbour cycle to grassland play rocket. Then cycle to Boss house to stay over. Everytime see stranger say "merry christmas!" then they all say back. Only one or two stunned then never say back but the feeling is nice wishing people. Laugh laugh laugh so much until want to die. Especially just before we sleep laugh like mad. Then this morning ride back. Better than clubbing right Ah Ong?

I miss school.
School was great, but it was also tiring. Now what's tiring is gone and only beautiful memories remain
I miss being sec 4 and having the guts to sneer at the lower levels but not really having any guts to do anything physically to them bloody big sized giants. I miss sleeping in the corridor outside class, I miss scaring people when they walk past my classroom door, I miss listening to music during lessons and clipping the wire to my collar so Mrs Chang won't see, I miss drawing hopscotch squares on the floor with chalk, I miss whispering with everyone else, "Did you see our new classmate?" when Vanessa Wong suddenly appeared again, I miss swaggering into school twirling my umbrella on a rainy lovely morning, I miss singing the school song so loud I went off tune, I miss Tan Lay Kwang smiling proudly at me because she's too stupid to know the real reason why I'm singing so loudly, I miss Mr Karib's tuition, I miss how Weini chase us from Karib's house to the Pasir Ris mrt, I miss the way my friends and I were so comfortable in school that we'd sing at the top of our voices anywhere, I miss saboing Joanna whenever she was using her mobile phone in class, I miss Mrs Chang because she knows that I'm listening to music but she doesn't give a shit, I miss shouting Ms Louiza Tan's name and waving at her like a maniac just to see her "okay wtf" face, I miss how we'd charge our mobile phones at the back of the class, I miss boasting to Joanna how neat the shelf under my table is when her's overflowed with nonsense over to my side, I miss drawing fucking ugly pictures that spanned across the entire board, I miss being scolded for being late all the time, I miss how we'll always fake headache just to sleep during lessons, I miss doing shadow monkeys having sex outside class and on the OHP and charging my friends if they wanted to see more (they never did pay me), I miss holding Varsha's hand wherever we went, I miss the cool clique the businessmen clique the quiet and reserved clique the gossip bitches clique the bimbo clique, I miss the way everybody said, "I'll miss that" when school was ending, I miss pretending to pop a sweet into my mouth in front of Vanessa Nunis and having her freak out, I miss how I'll always lie to Vanessa Nunis that I'm smsing my mother and it's urgent when I'm really smsing someone else, I miss how the prefects were all so nice to me when I broke the rules just because I was once a prefect, I miss seeing Mr Ong in the canteen and going over to chat with him, I miss pretending to be doing work during publications when I'm really messing around, I miss the way Sam did all the work during publications, I miss how Sam and I would bitch about some of the juniors, I miss Sophie and her house and brother, I miss wetting tissues and throwing them onto the toilet ceiling, I miss sitting in the upper gallery during assembly and pointing and laughing at the people below us, I miss tickling Joanna's palm and having mine tickled at the same time until we both fell asleep, I miss bio lessons in the AVA, I miss teasing Ms Raudah about our suspicions that she's pregnant and pleading with her to take off her tudong cause we wanted to see what her hair was like, I miss standing next to Ms Fairozah/ Mrs Kauthar, I miss writing song lyrics all over the board during chem period and everyone's down at the labs, I miss sniggering when someone else got the job of cleaning away the lyrics, I miss how Lu Lao Shi and I eventually became good friends despite our earlier quarrels this is bloody fucking long I should stop here

You make me feel like I am fun again

However far away
I will always love you
However long I stay
I will always love you
Whatever words I say
I will always love you
I will always love you

Whenever I'm alone with you

Thats right, siwei and I went fishing at farmart fish farm and we caught all sorts of seafood. Seabass, barracudas, pomfrets, kois, luohans, a small sting ray, two crabs and dozens of prawns. We marinated and bbqed them right away after we caught them and everything tasted so fresh and juicy. It was too much food for the both of us so we invited a few other people to come and eat with us.

Lost it to Bostik, yeah
Shaved heads, rave heads, on the pill
Got too much time to kill
Get into bands and gangs

Oh, here they come
The beautiful ones
The beautiful ones

Loved up, doved up, hung around
Stoned in a lonely town
Shaking their meat to the beat
High on diesel and gasoline
Psycho for drum machine
Shaking their bits to the hits

You don't think about it
You don't do without it
Because you're beautiful
And if your baby's going crazy
That's how you made me

Yey, Mdm Gammar tell that Et Cetera went in finals of national competition hold by SPH. No person knows Et Cetera inside KC, but Sam together and me knows. Us worked very tough for it. Now we am happy, super joy!
But Mdm Gammar told that the day itself, us Sam and me have to do Et Cetera suddenly, from zero, in the spot. That are good, that are okay. Then she told that us have to did with juniors together. That are different, I thinking that are meant we will died. We seeing how later.

Who given the monkeys pineapple?!

Did this song use to be the background music of Bell's blog/haloscan comment box?
Anyway.. I dedicate this to the Boss

I am thinking it's a sign
That the freckles in our eyes are mirror images
And when we kiss they're perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate
That God himself did make
Us into corresponding shapes
Like puzzle pieces from the clay

And true, it may seem like a stretch
But it's thoughts like these that catch
My troubled head when you're away
When I am missing you to death
When you are out there on the road
For several weeks of shows
And when you scan the radio
I hope this song will guide you home

They will see us waving from such great heights
"Come down now", they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
"Come down now", but we'll stay

I tried my best to leave
This all on your machine
But the persistent beat
It sounded thin upon listening
And that frankly will not fly
You will hear the shrillest highs
And lowest lows with the windows down
When this is guiding you home

Yea.. Creative Support Centre actually has an internet kiosk.. My turn in a few minutes. Quite cool
The west has the best neighbourhoods.. I'm going to move here next time. Quite alot of cute guys I bumped into also haha.
If the cute guy with brown eyes and wavy hair who asked me about some children donation at Jurong East mrt ever reads this, I want to say that I love you for guessing my age right, and that I was concentrating on how cute you were instead of what you were saying. Sorry.
This little girl is running around me now.. Haha, this is an interesting day
And I miss my boss.

New neeon :)
Suprisingly everything including the waiting took only 45 minutes.
The lady at the counter just told me to charge it for 8 hours for the first time.. then consequential 3 hours each time.
The man at taka's best denki told me to charge it for 24 hours for the first time.. then consequential 6 hours each time.
I think I prefer the instructions from the lady..
Yey, now I meet my boss!

"You kena cheated of 50 bucks. If you had the initiative to ask me, I would have told you to go sim lim square. I bought my zen neeon for 279 only. Nevermind, you don't feel the pinch cause it's not your money. Let this 50 dollars be a lesson to you to learn initiative."

That is really too much. What the fuck is he thinking? Bad mood don't come and take it out on me by acting like the act-smart illogical asshole that everybody hates and despises.

Plugging out my mp3 just like that (without having the decency to at least click 'safely remove hardware' first) to charge his while I was charging mine for the first time, he spoilt mine. I can't connect it to the computer at all, and the battery is still flat. I don't even get a chance to fucking switch it on and I already have to bring it to the jurong east support centre. I waited for my mp3 for months, why he have to do this kinda funny thing just to spite me. Fucking idiotic lunatic.

Yah okay. Graduation is over also. Sucks man, the whole thing was kind of pathetic really... except for the awesome food..... Shit I'm hungry
Everybody looked good. Only viewing the mini-us in the secondary 1 to 4 videos made me really realise that we changed so much.

Okay.. So. More struggles from here onwards

Yea that's right.. It's over man!!!!

Thanks to varsha and stefanie for celebrating with me.. by getting us locked in in the fucking scary basement of lido

Sometimes while I am slacking, I panic and out of habit I say to myself, "shit I better stop wasting time"
Then my muscles relax, I lean back, put my legs on the table and, smirking to myself, think, "no wait.. I forgot I got plenty of time to waste anyway"

And so here's a song to celebrate, Happy Hippo by Cloud Cult.
Haha, sorry dunno the lyrics.

You were one step behind in that dismal school of mine
Needle and percocet instead of books on students desks
We were so charming, but the future was alarming
And now don't you go look so proud
Yes, guess who's laughing now

And we've learned that life is one big game
Where the winners are all getting paid
So stop dragging your feet behind
You can't live with the folks all your life
So on those days home in your car
We jerked the steering wheel to the median
Joking that we'd end our lives
But we weren't joking all the time

Start a band or throw a brick
You lazy hipsters make me sick
Don't clap your hands, don't start to dance
Don't let them know that you're a fan

You may be living in Manhattan
But where are you really from, have you forgotten
Kid, you may be playing your music loud
But it's drowned out by your mouth

I don't know where to stand, up on the mountain or down in the sand
Cause I like being way up high, said I like being up but I don't know why
But up here I can see the walls built by man to divide us all
They've been making war and deny us peace
They took away the land and then they brought disease

Those white men who've got the key to black man's identity
And those lands they were s'posed to be forever
They got no heart, they got no right
And if you decide to fight, please know that we can fight together

We'll be the water, water, water
We'll be the water for their fire
We'll be the water, water, water
We'll be the water for their fire

They have the tendency to put in their pockets everything they see
They've been taking lands all across the globe
And writing down their name on every rock and stone
But it ain't no mystery, they're keeping the children from their ancestry
They lock them out of their sacred ground
Well, one day I'm gonna see them pull those fences down

Now, our history is a shame to me but I still got faith in humanity
Can we swap back all the wrongs for rights
And let the people walk free every day and night, cause
Each nation has their own piece of earth that they call their home
It's a point of reference to identify
So if you don't know where you come from, you know why

In times like these, where the tiring struggle of preparing for major exams takes it's toll on me, I am glad I have my lazy boss to boss me around and add to my stress level.

I also want a new bed. Preferably this second-hand one I'm eyeing..

Actually the first paragraph is misleading.. I'm not feeling tired/drained enough..
Then again, aren't we all always thinking that we're not doing enough all the time?

Everything else below is credits to Charan. Thanks dude!

"... How do you guys think the current momentum in local music can be sustained and how can the quality of local music be taken even higher?

Victor : If venues can be more approachable to staging local bands and local bands maintain a certain maturity in the way they handle themselves, I'm sure the scene will continue to grow slowly but surely. In terms of quality, I feel that that is something that is never lacking amongst the musicians here. It's just that the opportunity to present themselves is inadequate at times.

Adam : I guess ample and credible media exposure could help volumes. Bands can only do so much to improve what they are doing but if nobody knows about it, it will all be in vain. Also, I think more support from the public would inspire local bands to push themselves harder to excel and push the envelope to create better music.

Furthermore, I'm sick of the "local band = free gig" mentality. It might be well and good for the hobbyists but it does nothing to help people who'd like to pursue music as a profession. It's not like we're asking for copious amounts of cash here; we just want enough to sustain ourselves so we can go on doing what we love: creating music."

Break it out, just break it out
Don't hesitate the dilate
What is your name, what do you do
I'm not that kind of man
But I'll make an exception for you

We're flexed and pressed for time alone
Don't stall in the stall
I want to do a little, I want to do it all
But now wait, wait, I'm a gentleman-in-training
Wait, wait, I'm a professional in feigning love
So go slow

Voluptuous and finely cut
What will it take to get you up
And dance with me in wistful heat
In this little club between A and B

In the bathroom is where I want you
Against the graffiti wall, we know no love at all
And just to see your body in a place so tacky
There's no better irony in my own depravity
Oh, but go slow

I do want to fall in love
But I just don't know how to

You were sickened at the vowing of silence
I was taken by a permenant high
Two lovers all you turned on how romantic
Never need a guillotine to get you off my mind
You were swept up in the buzz of a marriage
I was secretly hoping one of us might die
A close call would have ended up with the carriage
Let's call it extra, let's call it why

You're just like your dad, surprise
You don't only share his eyes
It's the truth that's in your hand
It's a knack for telling awful lies
Why am I always right

As you slept away the day in my bedroom
I found a criminal use for a pillow
I love you terribly, I swear that this is true
But I just can't stop my hands from smothering you
I skipped town on a flight to your city
There I crept up to your lover's window
He poured a scotch and sobbed alone in the kitchen
I took that aim and then I let it blow

Stick a fork in a socket
Do what you like
Just make sure that I'm far out of your life
Take an axe to your fingers
Carve your eyes
Cut out your tongue and we'll call this a tie
Cut out your lying tongue and we'll call this a tie

That once we said goodbye
No one else will know these lonely dreams
No one else will know that part of me

I'm still driving away
And I'm sorry every day
I won't always love these selfish things
I won't always live not stopping

It was my turn to decide
I knew this was our time
No one else will have me like you do
No one else will have me, only you

You'll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for
I'm here I'm now I'm ready
Holding on tight
Dont give away the end
The one thing that stays mine

Amazing still it seems, I'll be 23
I won't always love what I'll never have
I won't always live in my regret

You'll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for
I'm here I'm now I'm ready
Holding on tight
Dont give away the end
The one thing that stays mine

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I

Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Hi guys.
I've had so many thoughts over the past few weeks.

By the way, to all dota fanatics out there.
GIVE ME BACK MY BROTHER YOU NERDS.
You know, the one with a social life.

To install the notion that I divided by I
Replace the occasion to speak
I know I'm not the only lonely boy

Til' I decide to take my watch off
I'll still believe that we
Were just a matter of time
Still getting older everyday
Shout for shout's sake

Siren, siren
Don't do this dance in my ear
In fact I've already lost him
I do a deadly dance and all I've asked for so little
I've already lost him

If I decide to sever the plates below
The shore would separate
And find only seven placed again

Til' I decide to take my watch off
I'll still believe that we
Were just a matter of time
Getting older everyday
Shout for shout's sake

Siren, siren
Don't do this dance in my ear
In fact I've already lost him
I do a deadly dance and all I've asked for so little
In fact I've already lost him

Before commemorating this anniversary
Ten feet tall and I still have the right to say
I hope you still believe

Grapes and Hot Tubs

So I was in class with Alphonso, Stefanie, Lthena and Joanna (I think), when I took out my electric shaver and shaved off my hair. Not totally though, I left some Lthena-like fringe.

Alphonso was confused as to what to do when I offered her the shaver. Should she shave her head as well, or should she at least ask her mother first? My advice was to shave first, then go home. At least that way even if her mother disapproves, she can't do anything about it.

Except maybe force her to wear a wig. But nevermind.

Then all of us decided to pierce our lips, so we left class and headed for a shopping mall in search of Stege. The shopping mall reminded me of Thomson Plaza.
Suddenly the rest of my class arrived and it turned into an unofficial class excursion to Thomson-Plaza-Like Mall.

I spotted many many many (and I mean many) railings, and I pointed them out to Joanna. Joanna and I told Alphonso and Stefanie about pk, and they were interested and wanted to give it a shot. Turns out they were born pk geniuses and four of us vaulted here and there over the railings like nobody's business. I felt nice, warm and happy. I was also happy because the more I pked, the taller I grew. The taller I grew, the shorter the railings were and the easier it was for me to vault over them.

We decided we had had enough, and Joanna said we should leave for tennis training before we were late. We went out of the shopping mall, turned a corner and there the tennis court was. Our coach was wearing a tuxedo, bright coloured tennis shoes and had salt and pepper curly hair. He reminded me of Mr Noodle, the one who lives in Elmo's window in Sesame Street.

He went over to the fence and turned on some switch, and fire spurts started coming out of the ground at random spots and at random times. He said that that was to make sure we would stay alert during tennis training.

We started off with warm-up exercises. Somehow the more we did, the more I was finding it hard to keep up with everybody. They kept going faster and faster, and my limbs wouldn't do what I wanted them to do, and I started crying in frustration.

Then I woke up, with a huge urge to pierce my lip.

Official Announcement

2005-09-08T08:19:00.000+08:00

Hello everybody,

After 5 hours of biology, my head has exploded.

Therefore I have decided that this kind of life is too complicated for me, and I will spend the rest of my time on Earth doing something simple in a factory, such as shelling peas or putting toothpaste tubes into their rectangular carton boxes. As a nice mood relaxant, I could even appeal to the management to play simple songs such as Mary Had A Little Lamb or Twinkle Twinkle Little Star over the PA system.

So far, Joanna has agreed to join me, and Lthena is seriously considering. Anybody else who has similar desires, sentiments, or urges is welcome to contact any one of us at our respective mobile numbers for further details.

Thank you for your kind attention,
Natashia

And even though the moment passed me by
I still can't turn away
Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Got tossed along the way
And letters that you never meant to send
Get lost or thrown away

And now we're grown up orphans
That never knew their names
We don't belong to no one
That's a shame
But you could hide beside me
Maybe for a while
And I won't tell no one your name
I won't tell em your name

Scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there
Did you get to be a star
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are

You grew up way too fast
Now there's nothing to believe
When reruns all become our history
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell em your name

I think about you all the time
I don't need to sing
It's lonely where you are come back down
And I won't tell em your name

"Following a path can bring with it new opinions and thoughts, both obvious and those that are not obvious. You must always follow your own intuition. You must always do what you feel. Rather than what others think." - Sebastien Foucan

Thanks Hatta..
Dammit lah. I know.. so little.

And it's all in how you mix the two
And it starts just where the light exists
It's a feeling that you cannot miss
And it burns a hole through everyone that feels it

Well you're never gonna find it
If you're looking for it
Won't come your way
Well you'll never find it
If you're looking for it

Should've done something
But I've done it enough
By the way your hands were shaking
Rather waste some time with you

And you never would have thought in the end
How amazing it feels just to live again
It's a feeling that you cannot miss
It burns a hole through everyone that feels it

Should've said something
But I've said it enough
By the way my words were faded
Rather waste some time with you
Waste some time with you

Ridiculous Things My Mother Has Said

2005-08-26T12:15:00.000+08:00

I could write a book on this, but I don't have the time.
So here is the winning quote for today.

Mum On Phone: "Yes I know, Chris and Raymond can ride bicycle to their workplace so it will be near for them you see, but Judy is a girl so she cannot ride a bicycle."

7.25am, School Courtyard

Mrs Sng: Prefects, stop the girls now.
Samantha: (walking to the front of the 4/6 row with Abigail behind her, possessing an incredulous and extremely hilarious facial expression) Stop me, prefects, stop me!

You're a rebel, Sam, and you know it.

-

I realise Lishan loves to annoy you on purpose, then apologise.
Eg. Stops you from whatever you're doing, forces you to do it her way, then apologise. Then to do it again 3 minutes later.

Lesson of the day:
When ill, stay away from Lishan.

I almost hit her today cause I was feeling physically terrible, which led to the short-temperedness. I can't even remember what she did that made me want to do something violent to her.
Tolerance level increased as time passed and my fever got better. We ended up revising biology together.

How weird can life get..

-

Science(Biology) / Science(Physics) Practical Preliminary Examinations
are in approximately 13 hours time.
I have done some preparation (studied in brief the chapters that usually come out for practical), it's not enough for a good pass, but I'm hoping it'll pass me.
I think I'll do the physics experiment first to boost my morale so I can tackle bio with more confidence and less mistakes.

Front And Back

This morning's scenario at 6.04am, Home:

Spoilt pencil case
Lost socks
Lost rubber bands
Lost tempers

This morning's scenario at 6.31am, Corridor at 2nd Level:

Lights turned off in the corridor outside class
No one along the whole of the corridor
Except a cockroach
Which of course had to turn around and scurry towards me and under my bag
And a bee
Which of course had to land on my arm and crawl up my sleeve

This morning's scenario at 7.26am, School Courtyard:

Discipline Mistress: "Prefects, stop the girls now! I don't care where in the building they came from as long as they're not seated by 7.20 they're considered late!"
Joanna, Varsha, Stefanie, Shangari, Kamani and I ended up standing by the drain with the latecomers.

Jesus. I was the fucking first to arrive in school lah.

The only good thing about today..

This afternoon's scenario at 11.45pm, Classroom:

Mr Karib: What papers did I ask you to hand up tomorrow ah?
Me: (trying my luck) Erm.. You only said to hand up Bukit Merah paper on Saturday. You didn't give us any homework for tomorrow.
Mr Karib: Oh ok.. I'm going crazy I keep forgetting to give you all homework to do.

HAHA

Dear friends of this academy
Romeo is bleeding to death
To see a friend bleed to death, what for
Some kind of metaphor that I can't see
So I'll drink until I see it

This sky will make me sick
So I'll give up on you
I'll give up on this
This sky will make me sick
So I'll give up on this
I'll give up on you

Archers in your arches
Raise your fingers for one last salute
And bleed this skyline dry
Your history is mine

So you want to hold me up and bring me down
Yes, you want to hold me up and break me down
I don't care for your sweet scent
Or the way you want me more than I want you
I don't care for your sweet scent
Or the way you want me more than I want you

It's all mine
It's all mine
It's all mine

Archers in your arches
Raise your fingers for one last salute
And bleed this skyline dry
Your history is mine

Hi Nat,
For the MP 3, I am afraid that it will distract your study becos of listening too much music.It will affect your study preparation of your O level exam.
However, I will buy it after your O level exam. Hope you share my view / understand my decision.
I hope mommy do not proceed to rent out room now.Express to her your view and also I need to have a place to sleep when I back to Singapore.
Testing her by asking her diplomatically. If you smell it is still in her mind,let me know asap.OK !!
Take care and God Bless.
Rgds

All because he doesn't even know that I had one before. After O levels!!! Argh. I'm starting to hate that stupid phrase.

Disconnection

2005-08-05T14:12:00.000+08:00

I don't feel the way I've ever felt
I know
I'm gonna smile when I get worried
I try but it shows

Anyone can make what I have built
And better now
Anyone can find the same white pills
It takes my pain away

It's a lie, a kiss with open eyes
And she's not breathing back
Anything but bother me
It takes my pain away
Nevermind these are horrid times
I can't let it bother me

I never thought I'd walk away from you, I did
But it's a false sense of accomplishment
Every time I quit
Anyone can see my every flaw, it isn't hard
Anyone can say they're above this all
It takes my pain away

I can't let it bother me
It takes my pain away
Takes my pain
Takes my pain
Takes my pain
Takes my pain away

Edit: Sophie's brother, Benjamin, comes a close second.

Everything is silent
I feel disconnected
As words turn to phrases
Phrases turn to prayer

So now you know
This is my call
Do you hear me
And if I fall
Will you be there to catch me

When you close your eyes now
Are you satisfied
When this is all over
There will be nothing left

It's sharpening beneath me
Beneath my feet
The earth opens up
To swallow me
Take my hand and lead me on
Take my hand and lead me on
It's sharpening beneath me
Beneath my feet
It's sharpening beneath me
It's sharpening
Do you hear me

Must one totally conform to either extreme ends of the scale before being accepted?
It's not fair. Why can't we be in the middle and have the best of both worlds?

You, you were a friend
You were a friend of mine, I let you spend the night
You see it was my fault
Of course it was mine
I'm too hard at work
Have you ever heard of anything so absurd ever in your life
I'm sorry for wasting your time

See who am I to say this situation isn't great
When it's my job to make the most of it
Of course I didn't know that it would happen to me
Not that easy, no

Hey, what's that you say
You're not blaming me for anything, well that's great
But I don't break that easy, does it fade away
So that's why I'm, I'm apologizing now
For telling you I thought that we could make it
I just don't get enough to believe that we've both changed

See who am I to say this situation isn't great
It's my time to make the most of it
Of course I didn't know that it would happen to me
Not that easy, no
If all along the fault is up for grabs why can't you have it
If it's for sale what is your offer
I'll sell it for no less than what I bought it for
Pay no more than absolutely zero

Well neither one of us deserves the blame
Because opportunities moved us away
And it's not an easy thing to learn to play
A game that's made for two, that's you and me
The rules remain a mystery
See how it's easy

See who am I to say this situation isn't great
It's our time to make the most of it
How could we ever know that this would happen to me
Not that easy, no, no
When all along the fault is up for grabs and there you have it
If it's for sale what is your offer
I'll sell it for no less than what I bought it for
Pay no more than absolutely zero

Alone at last
Together in a photograph
Our eyes are always open
Devoted to perfection through silence

What am I supposed to do
Should I sit wait for you
Listen to me screaming more

This story is old
Only to those that have no mold
The truth can be bought or sold
But what are we buying
Nothing but silence

What am I supposed to do
Should I sit wait for you
Listen to me screaming more

Fold the corners, break the silence
Fold the corners just for tonight

What am I supposed to do
Should I sit wait for you
Listen to me screaming more

Mum: I planning to rent out our bedroom, then we design kor kor's (my brother) bedroom like a study area. or maybe downstairs in the living room.
Me: What?! Then our whole family only stay in one bedroom?!
Mum: Tsk you don't understand is it? I said already we renovate the room so that you and kor kor will have space to study.
Me: As in knock down walls or what?
Mum: No, just like put a table at the corner.. That kind of thing la
Me: So. The room still same size what you put table all doesn't mean it will expand. Can rent out after my O levels not?
Mum: End of year no worker will want to rent rooms already la..
Me: Ok la. At the most I don't come home I go out study everyday.

Then she'll scold and nag and nag.. Why does she even bother to bring up the topic with me anymore if I don't have a say in it?

And the hardest part
Was letting go, not taking part
Was the hardest part

And the strangest thing
Was waiting for that bell to ring
It was the strangest start

I could feel it go down
Bittersweet, I could taste in my mouth
Silver lining the cloud
Oh and I
I wish that I could work it out

And the hardest part
Was letting go, not taking part
You really broke my heart

And I tried to sing
But I couldn't think of anything
And that was the hardest part

I could feel it go down
You left the sweetest taste in my mouth
You're silver lining the clouds
Oh and I
Oh and I
I wonder what it's all about
I wonder what it's all about

Everything I know is wrong
Everything I do, it's just comes undone
And everything is torn apart

Oh and it's the part
That's the hardest part
Yeah that's the hardest part
That's the hardest part
