Tomorrow would mark the first day of work for me at Sakae.

And it would mark the end of the promos for her. It's been a month since I've seen her!

Let's just hope it goes well for the both of us tomorrow.

Irasshai!

Ouch is the right word.

For those of you who thinks that Frisbee is a relaxing sport played by you and your dog in the park, please change your mindset.

This is a dog eat dog sport. We shed our sweat and our blood and put in our all in the matches. There is no judges and the power goes to the players. The game is in our hands. We make the call and uphold the rules (which are sometimes not so clearly defined).

I got my eye smacked during the game today. Sucks. It sucks not because my eyes hurt from the smack, but because I wasn't quick enough to dodge it. I'm in a sports club because I want to hone my reflexes, but apparently, it hasn't improved much.

Guess I got a lot more training to go.

How would you respond when someone close to you asks "Why are you so corrupted?"

I know this was just a random question and was never meant to be taken to heart, but still, I can't help but get it stuck in my head.

First of all, what defines corruptibility?

Is it the things you do? The things you watch? The things you say? Is it evil?

What then are the parameters of evil?

It's hard to address an issue that has no clear boundaries. It's even harder when it's something that is a grey area. Would you call a man who killed another evil?

Consider this: Brad killed Richard. But only because Richard was after your life.

Would you consider Brad evil?

Now, look at it this way: Brad killed Richard. Richard was killed because he was trying to kill someone might invoke a catastrophe in the near future.

So who is the evil one here?

Mind boggling, ain't it?

Ahh... the wonders of the world.

I guess if I have to give an answer to the question... it would be... "I am what I am because I am of the shadow and the light. But for you, I'm willing to be close to the light... to be a better person for you."

S.H.E's album would be out tomorrow!

Here's one track from the album that I really really like. It's called 安静了 and it is actually a kind of remake from Jay's 安静. From what I heard so far, the lyrics were done by Selina and the 作曲/编曲 itself was personally done by Jay.

只剩下钢琴陪我站在这里
梦想中 属于我们的婚礼
却成了 单人结婚进行曲
在这场爱情角力的拔河里
爱我还是爱你
你选择了自己
Woo~
撒娇的 可爱的 女人的 爱哭的
照片里 曾经的 都是你喜欢的
如今我还在原地
你却走回你的记忆

你说我爱你太多
就快要把你淹没
你害怕幸福短暂一秒就崩落
分开是一种解脱
让你好好的想过
我想要的那片天空
你是不是能够给我

你说我给你太多
却不能给我什么
分不清激情
承诺永恒或迷惑
爱情是一道伤口
我们各自苦痛
沉默是我最后温柔
是因为我太爱你

WO~

Today would mark the first day of her battle against the dreaded monster called the Promos.

And in about 1 week from now, her battle would finally come to an end. The battle to decide her fate.

Until then I guess I would just have to wait... Been trying to find traces of her online... but she doesn't take much photos. And sadly, we have not taken a single photo together either...

If only I could extract pictures of her from my memories... that would have helped ease some of this longing.

If only.

Hilarious!

What do you need to do to get over an ex-girlfriend?

Fool around? Have sex with random strangers?

Or simply fall in love all over again?

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is funny in a sense that it's so cheesy and yet kind of relatable in certain levels... how many times have you found yourself out of love and unable to get over your perfect lover? Is she really as perfect as you think she is? Our leading male actor will soon find that out...

Let this be a lesson for all of those who are trying to forget their exs. Give yourself another chance. The one for you might just be around the corner. Always, always cherish what you have at the moment.

Thumbs up for this "educational" and hilarious film.

For those of you who are uncomfortable with penises, breasts and sexual themes, stay clear. Otherwise this would be a good film to chase away the blues. Where else are you going to see Kristen Bell in bikini?

In other news... please, please, PLEASE don't ask Darrell out for buffet/steamboat/anything that involves gorging yourself again. PLEASE. This is the second time that I feel like my stomach's gonna burst. Worse kind of feeling EVER.

Darrell has officially retired from the scene of gorge. A man's gotta spare a thought for his stomach.

It's been two weeks since I went out with her.

Really really miss her. Miss her silly smile. Can't help feeling insecure even though I know she's joking with me. I know I'm an insecure fool... but it's only cause I don't want to lose her.

When a person has the power to make you change for the better, you realize that she actually means the world to you.

That's when you start feeling that she is everything and that you are nothing. You start to feel powerless. You start to feel inferior... you feel that you might lose her to someone better.

I hate this feeling.

Yes, stool.

Definitely not the one that you would want to sit on.

This is the one that is also known as faeces. Or shit.

It is one thing to bury your shit in outfield, but it is a total different thing when you try to scoop your own shit with a tiny spatula and put it in a container to be sent for medical examination.

Ack. Makes you gag a little just thinking about it.

Finally had my typhoid jab today! My arm is aching from the jab. Didn't feel the ache til about several hours later. Dang. Totally ruined my plan to go out for a swim. I'm losing my tan... slowly, but surely.

Hello F&B industry! Here I come!

If I had a dollar every time I procrastinated to do my stuff, I would be rich by now.

Damnit.

Procrastinating rule number 1: Always grumble about being a procrastinator, but not do a single thing about it.

Rule number 2: Do anything and everything other than the work you are supposed to do.

Rule number 3: The net is your friend. Stick to it.

Rule number 4: Grumble more about procrastinating ONLINE. Remember, it will help to ease your guilt about procrastinating.

Rule number 5: Sleep. Nap. Do whatever it takes to stay away from your work.

5 golden rules that I had successfully deployed throughout my student life. Works like a charm.

How I wish I could turn this around.

Dangerous?

I think not.

I'm afraid to say that the only thing dangerous in this film would be the money and time you are investing on watching it. For an action flick, this film contains just too much dialogues and too little action.

I usually enjoy films by Nicolas Cage (National Treasure 1, Next, Face/Off) but this is quite a big flop. The attempt to inject a clever plotline into the flick did not actually pull off, resulting in draggy conversations and dialogues that makes one squirm, only to be salvaged by Cage's intense stares.

So if you are searching for dangers, try looking further. The lack of explosions and gunfights just doesn't make the cut. But if you are looking for the occasional gores and blood, just for the kick of mild thrills, this might just be the right show for you to look macho for once. Either that, or you might just want to catch this for the sake of Bangkok. The show does feature some attractions that you might want to go when you visit the country.

Yes!!! I got a job!!!

Wow... I never thought that anyone would hire me when I could only work half days on Mondays and Tuesdays and a full day on Sunday.

It's a good thing I listened to my silly girl. Heh.

Haven't had the mood to really study these few days.

My whole mind has been preoccupied with what I'm going to do to earn some allowance and to pay for my financial savings plan, and at the same time not let it disrupt my student life, or worse, affect my studies.

Every day I would flip through the classified ads on The Straits Times, hoping to get an answer. Every time I'm online I would go through JobsCentral, hoping to find a suitable job. All were nothing but futile attempts.

*sighs* Is there any job out there that only requires me to work on just Sunday and Monday?

A day has passed since I got my pink ic.

It's weird, but I can't explain this empty feeling. It's as though something is lost from your life and yet you can't see it. I'm glad that my 2 years of NSF life is over, believe me, I am, but something just isn't right.

I guess I should be happy that I am finally able to get back to the civilian life. But 2 years isn't a short time... habits have to be changed. I'm so accustomed to life in the army that I'm just waiting for things to happen at home.

Back in camp, everything has been planned out for us. Breakfast in the morning, followed by area cleaning(which seems to have become a forgotten culture) and than PT. Lunch in the afternoon followed by dinner at night.

I never have to think of what to do tomorrow because everything is printed on the daily routine orders.

I guess the grass is greener on the other side.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not thinking of going back in there voluntarily, but I need a while to get the civilian concept back into my head. I need to jump start this brain of mine that has been inactive for the past 2 years and get back on track.

Failure is not an option.

(I miss her already.)

It's been a long wait.

Two years ago, I would not even have even dreamt of getting anywhere near a pass for my Individual Physical Proficiency Test (IPPT). It was just an impossible target for me.

Two years ago, I would not have thought that it was possible for me to be subjected to life in the outfields, to be able to endure tough trainings, to be able to interact with people, to be a team player. I never would have thought I could survive this ordeal called National Service. To be honest, I thought I would die from the training.

However, today, I realised how wrong I was, through and through. Although I have only barely manage to attain a Gold standard for my IPPT, I can now proudly say that passing is not a dream. From zero chin ups to ten, from 11 minutes plus to 9.23 minutes for 2.4km, the army has made me realise that if you strive for it, you can achieve it.

I even managed to clear my SOC under 9 minutes with the proper training. I'm not trying to brag, but I just want to express how amazing this journey has been. Things that I had thought were impossible to achieve were not that impossible after all. Nothing is impossible.

I want to thank my friends who have been with my through this two years. Without you, life would not have been the same. It is always a comfort to see someone going through the same shit as you. Misery loves company, no?

And with that, let me tell you the training message of the day. "With hard work and determination, the impossible CAN be achieved."

ORD lo.

You are probably studying right now... but when you're done, I hope you see this. =]

No, I'm not demanding for anything to happen. I'm actually referring to the movie which is titled "Make it happen".

As happening as the movie might sound, I'm afraid to say that it does not live up to its name. The movie has weak plot settings, as with most dancing flicks. With the main emphasis on the dancing itself, it just doesn't seem to deliver the standards with its lack-luster standards as compared to Step Up 2 and the failure to impress. However, it is quite a sexy film with the dirty dancing and one has to admit that the ending solo dance by the female lead is quite a feat to behold, making it the climax of the film.

Watching the film just makes me wonder whether it is a requirement for all dancers to have long hair in order to perform their signature hair swinging move (like that of the Chinese Opera). Oh, and in case you are wondering, if you are looking to impress the director of a dance school, always strip.

In other news, today was a fun day! I had fun not only at the arcades, but had loads of fun time harassing the silly girl. She's so ticklish! Oh, and I learnt that those toy catching machines are super addictive. I just can't stop myself from slotting in coin after coin despite not being able to catch a single thing. Darn it. I was so close!

Saw the strangest thing on the way to City Hall MRT. There was this girl carrying a signboard that roughly goes like this, "Today is my birthday, could you give me a hug?" and waited around with her group of friends for random strangers to hug her!

Wow.

I should do that for my 23rd birthday.

Till we meet up again... I will miss your small hand and your response to tickles! Work hard!

I will never forget the one year plus that we spent together. I might not have completed much adventures with you, but nevertheless, we had loads of fun.

I remember the lonely nights where you kept me company. The boring days where you kept me entertained with your antics. You have always been there for me when I needed you, whereas I could not have said the same for myself.

I remember our latest adventure in assisting Zack on his journey to become a First Class Soldier. But alas, the good man did not get to live happily ever after.

Today I bade farewell to you, my buddy... no one will ever take away the memories we had together. I will miss you... and I hope that your new friend will take good care of you and play with you more often than I did. My biggest regret right now is that I will not be there with you when Dissidia comes out.

Goodbye... my PSP.

Just can't seem to muster the energy to blog these days... have been job hunting for the past couple of days in order to cope with the financial crisis that would soon hit my wallet.

Yes folks, my current salary, as meager as it may seem, would no longer be checking itself into the friendly wall machine anymore. It is coming... my long awaited Pink I/C. I will no longer be drawing tax payer's money as wages and I find it exhilarating and sad at the same time. Where else would I find a source of income from?

And thus comes my job hunting adventures. Resumes after resumes I have sent out, with a few successes in return but none that actually fits the bill. I still remain hopeful amidst these bleakness, but my wallet would not hold much longer for me.

Let's just hope tomorrow's a good day.

It's a good thing I still have you.

Quick post!

Happy 2nd official month!

Muacks!
