489. the biggest loser

Side track: DBS Card members get additional 15% discount! Buy now!

It's always inspirational to watch The Biggest Loser. Seeing SUPER LARGE sized contestants lose weight is simply motivating. It takes alot of determination to do that and see the body goes smaller as days go by.

I don't need to embark their kind of weight losing regime yet... right? Haha...

Class gathering tonight. Hope all goes well. You peps betta turn up! It takes great pains to arrange such an event.

Was shopping last night with dear at the heart of Orchard. Sales and offer anywhere! But disgusting shoppers are everywhere too.

We entered a female boutique in Wisma Atria yesterday and dear happily took 3 pieces to try in the fitting room. As the boutique is pretty small, the fitting rooms ain't many either. The usual thing to do is to wait for available rooms to try out the clothes. While dear was trying her outfit, I'm doing my usual stuff, that's to wait patiently outside the room and dream how dear will look like in the pieces. As I was gazing aimlessly around the shop, there was this auntie in a purple dress who simply CAN'T wait for an available fitting room. She grabbed a skirt, lifted up her dress and tried it on the spot! I'm like what the F! There are male shoppers in the store too ya know! What an eyesore...

Vesak Day tomorrow. It's holiday but then again, I've been "holidaying" for very long. Woohoo!

488. 年少无知

Annoucement: DIT0007 Class Gathering - 30/5 - 7pm - Manhattan Fish Market @ PS - Contact me if you are coming and has yet to inform anyone.

不知道是我老了还是现在的年轻人作风狂妄自大，我发现有一点代沟了。

我虽然已很久没回到学校继续训练我之前所参与的课外活动，但还仍然积极的再forum留言，于新一批的同学沟通。就在讨论的当儿时，就有一位目前在club里向某个有“地位”的同学就出言不逊的与我发生了一些较“激烈”的讨论。而现在他尽然在留最后一则无聊透顶又幼稚的留言后，并滥用administrator的权利，把那讨论话题给锁上，不让大家继续留言。

对我来说是无所谓的。毕竟我都毕业了那么久了，参与于不参与都纯属个人兴趣。但他的所作所为却把事件给放大而越苗越黑。毕竟在forum里一起讨论的不只是我们两人，而大家都会看在眼里。只不过是个讨论，何必做到这样呢？

我并不怪他，只是当时确实对他的言语给稍微的激了一下。对我来说，他只是位小朋友。很多时候，在我们还年少无知时所说的一些话或做的一些事，会无意中伤到他人。再怎么说，年轻时血气方刚，有时有一些所作所为会过渡的忘我而作的有一点过分。

我突然记起和dear在那天谈起的一些小时候的事。我相信大家都一样，在年轻时会无意的得罪身边的人。如果知道了并一直放在心上、耿耿于怀，那还好。至少一有机会能道歉，他人仍然会对你另眼相看。但是如果不知道（或装不知道），那可就有一点可惜与遗憾。因为别人有可能会在有生之年里对你的人格大打折扣。别以为无所谓……这世界很小，我们无法猜测以后是否会对自己的前景有阻碍。

Some people are lucky to learn it the easy way. But are you that lucky? Most learn it in the hard way.

希望这则post能给大家一些些的启发吧……

今天的天气好想又转凉的迹象。好舒服哦！好像时间快转，这样就能快点和dear出门。也希望能尽早开工。我的钱包快烧出一个“洞”了。哈哈……

487. i've got it

Rant of the day: The rain cloud keeps coming back but it never rained to wash off the heat.

Yes, I've got through the line! And yes, I've accepted the job. There's more perks then what I've thought. Hope everything will go on smoothly when job starts next month. I'm so happy. I didn't realized that it has a contract of 3 years but no penalty in any cases of early termination but will sacrifice the gratuity award. But I don't think I'll quit easily for this one as they pay me well and I need the money for studies.

I'm so excited...

At least I can go out shopping with slightly less stress on my wallet. Haha.

486. nightmare

Rant of the day: It's so warm that even the shopping malls ain't cold enough to escape the heat!

Have you ever had a nightmare that makes you screamed and wake up in fright and cold sweat? I did last night during the evil hour. Had a terrible nightmare that I screamed out uncontrollably and woke up at 3.30am while everyone should be soundly asleep.

Can't really remember in details of the dream but I can vividly recall that besides me, mum, lil brother and his gal are at home. I remembered that I was in kitchen when suddenly everything around me started to float. The bread. The utensils. The cake. EVERYTHING started to float in mid air. The fridge door simply refuse to close no matter how hard I tried. I ran into my bedroom and grabbed my cross (the one that Hansel and Xuan gave to me when my grandma passed away) and told my mum about the floating things as she's in my lil brother's bedroom. I took the cross in my right hand and used my left hand to point at the fridge door. I started to shout some stuff that goes something like this -- "What ever thing you are, show yourself!". My TV suddenly showed the you black-and-white no channel transmission screen and a face was clearly surfacing. It's so clear that even now, I can still remember the face! It's a face of a woman with just white eyeballs. And I start screaming for my mum to run and I woke up, breaking in cold sweat on my bed.

What a nightmare... It's still giving me an eerie feeling and my hairs are standing.

Is it a sign? An omen?

Well, hope it's just coincident because I almost can't see tomorrow's sun just now. I'm not joking. I was almost hit by a reckless rider in the middle of Orchard Road. Had finished an afternoon snack in Swensons with dear, Angela and Likeng and all of us were awaiting to cross the road over to Takashimaya. The green man showed for a while before we started crossing. I took barely four steps when Angela started screaming hysterically. In less than a split second, a bike sped passed right in front of me in full speed, missing me by inches! I'm not joking. I was almost hit! Fuck! I was so stunned that my mind went total blank.

Was it related to my nightmare? A sign? An omen? It might also be just my luck of course.

I suddenly felt life is so fragile. I might just be sleeping in coffin the next moment... And trust me, this will be the best situation where I lies in the wooden bed. It will be much worse if I were to become paralysis for the rest of my life...

So treasure who ever is around you this instance. Treasure your friends, families and love ones. Most importantly, treasure me...

485. lelong lelong

Rant of the day: I'm so broke...

It's sales everywhere. Here 20% off. There 70% off. Here storewide discount. There free gifts with purchase. Oh my gawd! Start of the Great Singapore Sale and I'm still jobless! It's really pathetic when everywhere you go, there's sales and offer posters, and you don't really dare to take a look when you know that your wallet are pretty empty.

The jobless feeling doesn't feels good at all... especially when sales are all over the place and things are super cheap and you just simply don't have the extras to splurge a lil.

Mum is giving me the invisible stress when I told her that I'd made a mistake by not taking up the IRAS job immediately on Thursday. She doesn't even know how stressed I'm feeling now and how hard I've been trying to contact the person who called me and yet she's still uncontacteable. Mum wants me to go down to their HR personally on Monday. But if I really do that, don't that makes me look stupid and desperate (even though I am getting a lil desperate). And plus, it's a pretty well guarded enclosure and I don't even know where the hell is their HR department! I wasn't interviewed at their HR department that day!

I'll see how it goes la...

Today just seems extremely warm and I'm still sweating like the tap wasn't closed properly. Reached home only a while and was searching high and low for cold drinks and all I can find was milk and Yakult. Boiled water was already finish and I forgot to boil a new batch. Darn!

I'm just so glad that the aircon is fix.

484. wait nong nong

Rant of the day: Still waiting nong nong...

Called back the company at least 7 times and only once it was answered and was not the person I'm looking for. Left at least 5 voicemails and to the person who managed to pick up another message for the lady in-charge to call back but I never hear from her the ENTIRE day.

What's going on here?

Perhaps she's too busy to answer my call. Perhaps she's too busy to listen to the voicemails. Perhaps she's too busy to read the message passed to her. Perhaps the message was not passed to her. Perhaps she had already confirmed another candidate. Perhaps...

Just hope that I still have that chance. I really need a good pay job to pay my studies...

483. offer

Rant of the day: My body is aching.

A company called me yesterday to offer me a job. It's not HSBC but another gahmen sector. Good thing is the pay offered is pretty high. Bad thing is when she called me, I'm on the bus and couldn't decide. So I called back just now 3 times, left a voicemail, and still couldn't get her. Oh, just hope she hears my voicemail and get back to me asap.

Is it me or is it the weather. It's quite humid now and it looks like it's gonna rain anytime.

My legs are aching and I'm still having my lil cough so will skip the TKD friendly match. Well, that's one reason la. The other is I haven't been training for so long and it will be rather ugly if a senior belt like me got badly whacked by a lower belt in the arena. So, I shall give it a pass.

Well, will still try to call back later perhaps after lunch time and hopefully she's at her desk.

482. round 2... fight!

Quote of the day: What goes around comes around. Karma do exist in this world.

Just came back from 2nd round of interview with HSBC. Images in my mind was like the Street Fighter that we use to play in arcade... "Round 2... Fight!"... Hope all goes well... and I still hate written test. Oh yes, hate morning interviews also. My brain was still in lala land and wasn't working quite well. Haha.

You guys gotta try the Four Seasons Durians. Their durian pancake is out of this world! They have 2 outlets but personally thinks the one at AMK Hub is much much better. Just look at the generous fillings will make you drool! Definitely worth the $1.50 each! What's more? Buy 4 get 1 free! Woohoo!

But take note of the queue. If you are lucky, it takes you about 15min but if you are queueing on the peak hours, good luck man...

Was also browsing my photos and realized there's this cute photo in my collection that makes me go "awwwwwww". It's a puppy taken from a pet shop.

Look at it's eyes. It's like telling us that it's so sorry that he/she pooped and it wasn't intentional. So cute!

Dear showed me a blog that belongs to one of her friend acquaintance yesterday and that's why I've wrote the quote up there. What goes around comes around. Karma do exist in the world. But most prolly she didn't realize even till now why she had so much problems in her life. I don't quite like the not-so-nice nickname she had gave to dear, so since I don't put names on my blog for those peps whom are potential trouble makers, I shall call her orh ghee (mole) from now on in my blog.

Well, it's NYP TKD friendly match tomorrow but I'm STILL coughing for nuts! Though not serious but definitely a potential trouble when I'm exercising. Should I go?

481. classmate

New flash: 2nd round of interview at HSBC tomorrow morning!

Ok, the news came a lil too "early" this morning as I was still in my lala land. I will be going for a 2nd round of interview for HSBC with their manager tomorrow morning. Sweet! But how come there's another written test? Wah lau, how many times they want me to write? Will I get the job? How much will they pay me? Nervous...

Had a nice long chat with my secondary classmate, Yicui, last night. It's REALLY LONG since we last saw each other. Think the last time was taking the GCE 'O'-Levels results day. Haha. That was like aeons years back. But it's good to know they are all going on fine. I'm not even sure they might be reading my blog. But if you do, I'm also really going on fine too! Cheers!

Also to poly classmates, the class gathering is now set. So if you are reading this, please help to spread the message.

Date : 30th May 2007
Time : 7 pm
Venue : Manhattan Fish Market @ Plaza Singapura
Notes : For those who wish to meet me, wait for me at Dhoby Ghaut MRT station.
Attendance as of 23rd May 2007 :
1) Mengqing
2) Elaine
3) Huiying
4) Suyee
5) Alicia
6) Karen
7) Terry
8) Eric
9) Alvin

Reason why we arranged at 30th is because 31st is Vesak Day and so if there is a need to stay out late, there will be no excuses! Haha... But we haven't plan any after dinner programmes so do contribute your brain juice and help!

Gals seems more enthu for such gatherings actually. It's actually not too bad for 50% attendance rate. But like Alvin said, it's not a big class also. Somehow, most don't like to reply my messages. Tried sms and msn but neither worked for a handful of them. Oh well, maybe I wasn't "popular" in class. Haha... So for those who wish to attend but name is not reflected, please inform me by all means ASAP!

480. anything or whatever

Rant of the day: I'm so damn full now!

Have anyone tried the "anything" and "whatever"? Saw it in the supermart yesterday with dear and I'm actually really curious on how it really taste like.

But I can't imagine myself ordering it from any kopitiam. It might go so bad and I might be whacked up.

Kopitiam staff : Lai ah boy. Ai si mi?
Me : Ah uncle ah. I want "Anything".
Kopitiam staff : Huh?
Me : "Anything" lor.
Kopitiam staff : Si mi anything? Mai tu si gan la. Gong! Ai si mi?
Me : You all don't have "Anything" ah? Ok lor, then I want "Whatever".
Kopitiam staff : Chao c*** b**. Ai cheh dai ji si bo? @#$%^&*

See? It will not go well. Haha... So I think it's better to grab off the shelves in supermart yourselves la.

479. today

Rant of the day: It's so damn humid today!

I had a bad scare last night that sent my hands trembling badly even when I'm trying to sleep. For those who don't know, I have a bad phobia on flying cockroaches!

So it just happened last night when I'm doing my usual mapling when I suddenly saw this "black object" flew passed my right side and stucked itself to the wall. Took a proper glance at it and I jumped off my chair almost immediately. It's a LARGE cockroach! FUK! It scare the hell out of me and I even left my character standing right in the middle of all the monsters.

It doesn't took me more than 3 seconds for me to run out the room, grabbed the insecticide and take aim. I'm a marksman fyi. Haha. Just to share, buy Shieldtox! It's a fantastic insecticide. In just a short while, the cockroach was already struggling behind the door. So I left it to continue to struggle la.

But the entire thing left me trembling even after I laid on the bed for some time. Screw the cockroach! Can't even get a good night sleep!

Anyway, finished the interview at HSBC. It wasn't as bad as the IRAS one. At least I wasn't as nervous. Just hope that I can get the job and start earning money asap. I'm going broke soon. And also looking forward to work with Felix! It's really cool to work with your pals.

Also, Mengqing wants to organise a poly class gathering but somehow, it's always the same problem. Location and time. All I can say is can't please all la. Hope she can work out something but honestly response is damn bad. Either too expensive or some already have appointments. Most doesn't even reply my message! Whatever... Just hope that there's something we can work out la.

478. past few days

Annoucement: Get cheap deodorant at Lucky Plaza. Damn cheap!

Haven't got the time to blog till now. So it's just gonna be a lil updates on the past few days. Bought my Adidas deodorant (had ran out for quite some time liao) at Lucky Plaza and was astonished to find it damn cheap there!

Tried the nasi briyani store at AMK Hub on level 2 and so actually pretty disappointed. Presentation was honestly quite ok but taste wise, I'll suggest you guys to just go for the briyani will do. The pratas were pretty disappointing.

Attended Sinar's engagement today. She's gorgeous in the white dress with golden embrioded treads.

Ok, I'm actually pretty tired. Got interview at HSBC tomorrow. Some luck please!!!

477. directors

Rant of the day: I'm sleepy...

Wow... I was just being interviewed by 3 directors in IRAS. Scary? You bet man! They just kept shooting questions after questions and at one point of time, I was almost lost in their questions. Well, hope that I didn't make a fool out of myself! I've got one more on Monday. Wish me luck again.

Anyway, this movie seems hilarious.

Wanna laugh? Watch it!

476. invitation

Side-track: My house is freaking infested with ants! Grrrrrr!

In just a couple of hours till day break, I'll need to go for the interview at IRAS. Hmmmmm, taxing people. Nice...

Also, got an invitation from the current NYP TKD president on a friendly match next Friday. Honestly, I'm not sure if I should go. I'm so out of touch and can't even remember when was my last training back in school. I'm not very much in form as coughing is still a problem. Can't even breathe properly on the threadmills in gym. And also not wanting to be a sandbag even though I'm much a senior belt. The black belts like to kick senior belts arse and I seriously don't know why.

Oh well, need some serious consideration on the invitation. And for those alumni who wish to come down, all are invited! And BRING YOUR OWN GUARDS fyi. Eh, should be same time same place I presume.

Ok, back to finding my way to IRAS building. Need to catch some beauty sleep even though the night is still young. Nights!

475. good news

Rant of the day: My leg aches...

Good news comes together. Seems like different compaines HR department likes to call up shortlisted applicants at the same time. Haha.

Well, IRAS called first to arrange for an interview on coming Friday. Ok, if I get it, I'll start to "tax" people. Hopefully it's not taxing. Gee. Next was HSBC who called to arrange for their interview on coming Monday. Actually, I prefer this job as compared. At least my bonuses should be higher since it's not gahmen sector. Haha...

So, wish me luck!

474. click

Quote of the day: Family comes first.

It was only last night when I finished a pretty old movie -- Click. Think most of us will assume that it's a comedy. To a certain extend, yes it is. But I still tear near the end of the movie. Ok, perhaps I'm just a strong emotion person so any scene that can easy touched peps will send me crying.

Just one main message from the movie -- make time for family. The movie might exaggerate the whole issue of neglecting family but there is an element of importance in it. Like I've always wrote in my posts, 珍惜眼前人, cherish who ever is in your life now. This includes your better halves, family and friends.

I'll prolly be watching more movies at home today. Anyway, this is my next movie to catch in the cinema. Woohoo!

The trailer here is a lil soft so tune up your speakers now. "Welcome to Singapore". Haha...

473. 变不变心

Rant of the day: The toopid GST Offset webby sucks to the core! It's so slow and yet I don't know if the transaction goes through or not! I'll do it at ATM tomorrow. Sucks!

你的另一半是否会和你走完？他/她是否会和你同甘共苦？在你落魄潦倒时，他/她是否会在你身边陪伴？我相信，这一类型的问题大家多多少少都会问一问自己。我也一样，偶尔会问自己类似的问题。

记得不久前问了dear如果有一天，我变穷了，没办法给她舒服又偶尔奢侈的生活怎么办？如果刚好有位有钱，长得又帅又很爱她再追她，是否会变心？Dear一直回避，始终没回答我的问题。我也从来不追问也从不怪她无法回答。毕竟很多事情再没发生前，我们大家都不会知道答案。如果能未卜先知的话，我早就中ToTo和马票头奖了！哈哈！

但是心如果要变，想救也挽救不回……

能高兴和庆幸的是，在我和dear的这段日子里，她对我是一心一意、从不二心的。所以我对她是十足的放心和百分百的信心。我好爱她哦！

珍惜眼前人才是最重要的……

好啦，话不多说了。有一点writer's block了。

472. reject

Rant of the day: Weather is getting humid again.

I've rejected the job training on Tuesday. I just don't find it comfortable at all because alot of things are just ain't settled nicely. First and foremost, I don't get a confirmed salary! During the interview, it was only mentioned between $80 to $100 per day but depending on whether I talk or not. What do they meant by that? Does that means if I don't talk, I don't get paid? What is my job scope? Was also mentioned that I'll get fixed basic after probation. But it wasn't mentioned how much. I'm also not paid an allowance during training.

So... I'm back to jobless... Haha... But I don't really regret about it. I can't do something which I'm not comfortable with right? I'm still opened to choices...

Anyway, a few days back, dear accidentally cut her foot while trying to remove the dead skins. Till now, she's still in pain. After much persuasion by me of course and lots of insistence by mum, she finally agreed to lemme help her put a dressing for the wound. Silly girl! Next time must do a proper dressing to open wounds ok?

Now that the aircon is fixed, I can finally have a good sweatless night sleep no matter how warm the weather is. Yeah!

471. mothers' day

Rant of the day: I think I've just squished at least 20 ants in my woredrobe! They are everywhere!

Happy Mothers' Day mum!

Mum was telling me this afternoon on how painful it was when giving birth to lil brother and I. How she suffered while bringing us up. It's a long story so shall not bore you here. Anyway, she's the greatest!

So, this year as lil brother is not around in Singapore, dear accompany me to celebrate for my mum. Hey, I'm not selfish also ok. Was planning to help her celebrate for her mum but there was some last minute events on her side so all was cancelled on Saturday.

Mum specially dressed up nicely for the dinner at Xin Wang and she even wore a shawl! It's pretty cool! Bought mum a small bouquet of carnations too and she loved it. She insist to carry it wherever we went until I suggested to place it standing in the paper bag so that she can do her shopping.

Dinner at Xin Wang Hong Kong Cafe was good. Well, I forgot to snap some photos for the main courses as we were all very hungry and quickly cleared the plates. Haha. It's mum's first time there and she enjoyed it. Yeah! Because of Mothers' Day, the cafe gave a FREE dessert! So, for obvious reason, we picked the mango ice! Haha.

Dinner ends nicely with a photo shoot. Me with the 2 most important women in my life right now. See, mum was still carrying the small carnations bouquet. A lil sad as lil brother (who is in the middle of Brunei) is not able to join us but we are all looking forward for Christmas dinner together.

Mummy, I love you!

And of course, a big thanks to dear for today! I love you too... Muacks!

470. haywire weather

Quote of the day: No music. No life.

I'm finally home after a not-so-long day. My eyelids are weighing a ton! But then again, the air seems a lil humid even though I've just taken a nice cool bath.

The weather today is so haywire. Remember it was raining cats and dogs this morning? When I was in town this afternoon, it's super hot outside and I have to hid myself to the malls with dear. But then again, Takashimaya is like another world as compared to the menacing outdoor. It's basically a North Pole!

Anyway, I made a bad mistake today by eating Swensons with dear. I'm coughing badly now and I feel so hard to get it settle down. Tried sipping down some water but doesn't seems to work. My throat is feeling the strain now. I've already lost my voice and the current situation is not helping at all. But the coughing problem and somehow slowed down suddenly. Hope it gets better tomorrow. I've still got a steamboat dinner with dear and her mum.

Feel like cutting my hair tomorrow. It's getting long on my side burn and it's really irritating when the hair ends just keep poking your ears non-stop!

Well, that's all for now. I'm really tired. Nitez peps...

469. morning adventure

Question of the day: What do you add to a barrel of water to make it lighter?

I haven't wake up so early ever since I've quit my previous job. Somebody, KILL me please! My eyes can barely kept wide open in the MRT this morning.

Woke up not-so early this morning and was almost late. Thanks to mum for waking me up, else I might still be dozing off in bed now. Well, it was really cosy to find the air so cool as it was raining pretty heavy in the morning. But it didn't stop when I left for HSBC. Sucks! MRT was pretty packed in the morning even though it was raining. So, if I ever start work at HSBC, I'll have to squeeze with the rest.

It's really fortunate to have friends who knows their way well.

When I've reached Raffles Place Station, I'm practically lost in the middle of the concrete forest. I followed the signs in the station and did a correct exit but once I'm outside, I'm surrounded by reflective buildings line-up all around me. Seriously, I haven't been to the CBD area so it's like an array of restricted walls to me. I felt dizzy...

I saw Change Alley in front of me. I saw Standard Chartered. UOB was there too. Ok, but I don't see HSBC. Shucks! I'm lost! I tried asking around but somehow, nobody knows where the heck is the place. Die liao lor! I have to reach there before 9am and it's like less then 10min from the arranged time.

I remembered the building was somewhere near Change Alley. So, I decided to try cutting through it to see where it leads to. The signs along Change Alley doesn't help at all. No choice but to call Felix but haven't wanting to ring him up early morning when I knew that he will be busy in office. Thanks brother! I found my way and reached on time. Just on time!

It's really not so nice to do the papers early morning when my brain is barely in working state. 3 papers -- English, Mathematics and Correction Checking. Sad to say, I've only completed the English paper. It's pretty tough not in the sense of the questions difficulty level but to complete SOOOOOOOO many questions in such a limited time frame! It's like 40 questions in 15min?!? It's doesn't really help even though they are all MCQ. I'm like whatever la. Just do as much questions correctly as possible la.

So now, I'm back home but my eyes are wide-opened and refuse to shut. Fine... I'll prolly get a nice sleep tonight if that's the case. The aircon man will be here tomorrow to fix our aircon at home! Finally...

468. laugh

Rant of the day: Sun is back! Scorching...

Saw this picture while doing some blog surfing. It's freaking hilarious. Think most of us had saw it before during our poly days. So, let's enjoy it once more and laugh.

I seriously wouldn't mind having it printed on my tees! Haha...

My running nose is gone but my cough seems persistent to stay. I've been drinking alot of water but doesn't the cough doesn't seems to budge even a lil. So irritating because my voice will not recover until the cough is gone. But I do sound a lil more "sexy" with my current coarse voice. Heehee...

HSBC called me up for some sort of job assessment tomorrow. I'm so happy. Thanks to Felix's job recommendation and we might have a chance to work together! Woohoo! But the test seems tough. Hmmmmm... I hate written tests. But if both AVA and HSBC offers me job position, I'll be in real dilemma.

Here's S.H.E's new song 《中国话》 MV. Let's learn Chinese rapping. I've tried. I've failed miserably. Haha.

467. 填词时间

Rant of the day: The rain doesn't seems to wash away the heat!

我是吃饱没事做，答应dear我会写华语般的《星》。好啦，花了大概两个钟头写出来的《星光下》。希望大家会喜欢。是韩歌《星》（Byul）的曲。不知道哪儿一首？就在我的部落阁播放的歌咯！喜欢的话，也来一起唱一唱吧！

歌名： 星光下
歌词： 林威
歌曲： 取自于韩曲《星》

[verse 1]
在那星光下微风吹过 为何我的泪水静静滑落
我握着双手心以掏空 灵魂好像已上了锁

[verse 2]
在那星光下落叶飘过 我靠在窗边瞭望着星空
看星光闪烁泪还在流 好想抱着你入梦

[bridge]
你曾对我许下的那无数承诺
我还藏在我的心中
可是你是否记得

[chorus 1]
在那星光下我看见你抱她在怀中
你心里是否还想着我
你的背叛像给我耳光是如此心痛

我的泪以失控为你付出了整个我
而一句话就要放手
多么深的感情也会走到路途的尽头

[verse 2]
[bridge]

[chorus 2]
在那星光下我看见你抱她在怀中
你心里是否还想着我
你的背叛像给我耳光是如此心痛

我的泪不失控为你付出了整个我
你却轻易的放开了我
多么深的感情就走到尽头 haaaa….

我不再为你感到难过
让星星抱着我入梦
从今我会坚强的打开心的锁 woo…haaa…ahhh…

不再为你伤心的哭
结束一切从新来过
我会在星空下走出你的影子而感动

466. 姨妈症状

Rant of the day: I'm not in da mood...

是我在她的心中变得不重要了吗？还是这一份感情以不重要了？

每一次她的心情不好，我就首当其冲。不是我不愿意聆听，而是她不愿意倾诉。脾气时好时坏。一下子大声呼我，一下子又冷淡沉默。最后，总是怪“姨妈”来领的症状。可是，为什么刚开始谈恋爱时没有这样子而到了最近，“心情不好”却越来越频繁呢？真的是“姨妈”症状，还是以把我taken for granted了？

问我在意吗？老实说，不在意是假的。可是我以学者忍耐，能忍多少就算多少。都很多次了，也应该习惯了吧。

毕竟，她是我深爱的人……

“爱”就是需要容忍，体谅和包容对方。“爱”就是保护和关心对方。“爱”是多么的无私、无限。是她让我再一次找到“爱”，而我又怎么可以轻易放弃呢？我会努力的……

P.S.：这个短短的post我花了一个多小时才写完。可见我的心情在此时此刻是有多么的沉重。

465. weather

Rant of the day: Ouch... ouch... ouch... pain in the head...

I woke up with a terrible headache. No, it wasn't a hangover. I don't exactly know why but there's just a sharp pain in my head. Took a glance at my alarm clock and it's almost 10.30am. That should be enough sleep for me but why does the headache comes? Sucks!

Is it global warming or is it just this time of the year where the weather gets suddenly too humid and warm. It's like after bathing for barely 30min and I'm all sticky again! And because of the stupid weather, I fell sick. I'm much better now after much care from mum and dear. But because of the flu, I can't go gym. And also for the first time in my life, I wish the air-con bus rides could be longer. It's so blardy warm outside!

I'm looking out of my windows now... gosh... it's scorching but there's dark clouds hanging above. It's humid and I can literally feel heat rushing into my home! That's how odd the weather is...

464. problem

Rant of the day: I'm getting more and more sick.

I've been trying to blog for the past few days but blogger is giving me problem! It's so irritating and I'm not sure how many of peps out there are also facing the same problem. Everytime after I've logged in and go to my dashboard, it seems to be new layout. And when I've clicked on "New Post", the layout goes haywire! Seems like a problem after they've migrated.

But then again, after some help from the forums, I've managed to solve the problem. Instead of www.blogger.com/home at the dashboard, change it to www2.blogger.com/home and viola... it's ok! Woohoo! So, if you also have similar problem, try the above method.

Anyway, I've fell sick. Darn! The stupid weather is killing me and plus my habit of not taking in enough water, causes serious sore throat which wakes me up in the middle of the night and bad cough with yellowish-green phlegm. Darn! But, I'm on recovering road now.

Also, done my interview today. Erm, seems to be an advertising-cum-marketing firm but a pretty small one. I'm already not much of a mood to interview as I was sweating quite badly due to the stupid humid weather. But, I got the job! It starts next Tuesday for training. Somehow, I don't quite like the job and still looking for job though.

Ok, I'm still feeling pretty weak. Time to rest...

463. gym-ing

Shout out: Oh my gawd! I finally got call up for an interview on Monday! I can't wait.

Ok, like what I've "shouted out" above, I'm actually pretty happy that finally there's someone out there realised that I'm jobless and need a job fast. Haha. Well, I hope I can get it. I need cash fast.

So, during my days nothing better to do, I've actually try to force myself to gym 3 times a week. To burn off my idiotic fats which are there to stay on my body of course. It's actually pretty annoying when you are in front of the mirror, trying to fit in those clothes looking macho. And only to realise that you have a huge "tyre" on your waist and when you wave, there's another "hand" on your arm waving too. It's also very demoralising when everytime you step on the weighing machine and you've gained another kilo!

I have to get myself sweat it out asap...

So, usually my stay in gym is about 1.5 hour. Not very long I know but long enough to lemme sweat like a running tap. Quite a standard regime actually. Since my aim is to lose weight, cardio is what I need. Therefore, everytime dear and I will hit the treadmill and run like hamster once we are there in gym. Then, cycle for like 20min. When there's still energy, walk on the treadmill again. When at home, it's dumbbell time.

Dear thinks the results on me is so much visible but I can never figure out when I still feel fat.

Think there's alot more work to be done. I want to lose weight like Hanna in "200 Pounds Beauty"!!! But if I want to look dashing, I'll need an extreme makeover. Haha... Well, maybe not too extreme. I'm still not that bad. *grin* Hey, at least gals and guys (or gays) on the street still gimme a second look when I bother to dress up ok!

Junqing asked me if I'm going for tomorrow's BBQ for TKD members at Pasir Ris. How come I don't know about it till now? Or maybe I was informed but was nong nong time ago? I'm quite an absent-minded person ya know. Oh well, the piece of info came too late. I've already got event at night. Too bad la, some other time peps.

I'm tired... or rather my legs are tired.

462. 一首情歌

Rant of the day: My aircon is not giving me cold air!

相信大家对这个团体很陌生 -- 苏打绿（Sodagreen）。是的，除非你常听Y.E.S 93.3FM的广播，应该都会不时地听到他们的这首歌 -- 《小情歌》。93.3也用这首歌做为其中一部《罐头剧场》的主题曲。《小情歌》的歌词简单但又能带出爱情的意境。再加上嚷嚷上口的旋律，不用一下子就会在嘴边哼着这首歌了。

这个台湾团体在2004发了第一张单曲CD便受到瞩目。更在2006的第17届金曲奖入围最佳编曲人及最佳乐团等大奖。主唱吴青峰更以独特的唱腔和音域获得听众的注意。

可是，可惜的是他们的最新专辑《小宇宙》在本地找不到。如果有到台湾，我大力推荐你买这张专辑回来哦！现在就来enjoy以下苏打绿的《小情歌》。

曲明： 小情歌
词曲： 吴青峰
演唱： 苏打绿

这是一首简单的小情歌
唱着人们心肠的曲折
我想我很快乐当有你的温热
脚边的空气转了

这是一首简单的小情歌
唱着我们心头的白鸽
我想我很适合当一个歌颂者
青春在风中飘着

你知道 就算大雨让这座城市颠倒
我会给你怀抱
受不了 看见你背影来到
写下我 度秒如年难捱的离骚

就算整个世界被寂寞绑票
我也不会奔跑
逃不了 最后谁也都苍老
写下我 时间和琴声交错的城堡

461. coming mothers' big day

Rant of the day: F*** my stupid Internet Explorer!

I'm typing this all over again! Stupid Internet Explorer hanged my entire PC! *Piss*

Mothers' Day is just around the corner. Have you got it all planned for your mum's big day? Or have you decided that it's not such a big day after all? I've decided to bring mum to Xing Wang Hongkong Cafe for dinner. Let's just hope that it's not crowded. She haven't been there so it might be a good dining experience... I hope...

I've sent out numerous resumes but yet to receive any replies. Over-qualified? Or under-qualified? Jobless days seems "nice" as like the name says -- jobless! No need to work. But my savings are screaming for help as they are feeling the pinch right now. I'm like TOTALLY surviving on whatever I have left in my account now. My daily expenses. My transportation. My handphone bills. The feeling sucks big time! And that's not all, once I'm accepted for studies, I'll need to start footing the installments till I can't take it and then will be "mother's loan". Looks like I've got to self declare "bankrupt" soon. Haha...

Anyway, I'm so into one of the songs in the Korean movie -- 200 Pounds Beauty. It's Byul by Kim Ah Joong. "Byul" in Korea means stars. So, are you seeing stars now? Haha. Kim Ah Joong wasn't the original singer for Byul, but was by this group or solo with the stage name of You Me. Ok, what a weird name to use but then again, Korean pop scene always uses weird stage names. Remember HowL, Stay and Rain? Still, the song is so well done that I can't get it off my playlist!

For the entire song listing for this OST, click here.

Ok, after listening to my favourite song, I'm not so bad mood after all...

460. spidey 3

Rant of the day: Gosh! It's damn freaking humid today!

"Spiderman... Spiderman... Spiderman..."

What is it like to be a super hero? How does it feels to have peps chanting your name like an idol? How was it like to have super powers residing in you? Think we can never answer to those, well unless one fine day, we can become super heroes someday. Ok, maybe if you are a super idol, you might get fans chanting your name la.

Dear and I caught the earliest timeslot for Spiderman 3 at Cineleisure around 11am. Gosh, it was a full house! After the show, the rest of the scheduled were almost full house too! What a spidey phenomena and it's pretty impressive! Look at how many spidey fans out there this morning at Cineleisure just to catch the third episode. Think it will hit the top of the chart by the end of this week.

In this sequel, Peter Parker (Spiderman) faces new villians -- Venom and Sandman. For those who are Spiderman fans shouldn't have too much problem relating to what the heck is Venom. It's actually an extraterrestrial being that dropped on Earth. It needs a third party host in order to show it's power but because it has some kind of characteristics and emotion, it will take over the host's mind and thus turning evil. Honestly, I think Venom needs a dentist. Bad dental hygiene! Haha.

Also, Harry Osborn is back with a bang as the new Goblin. Revenge but did he succeed? Did he kill Peter Parker and "avenge" for the death of his father? After knowing Peter Parker is Spiderman, how well did Mary Jane cope with his super hero life? Did Spiderman turn evil like what was shown in the trailers after connecting with Venom? Answers can be found in the film, so watch it yourself.

Like previous 2 episodes, actions and graphics are damn good. So realistic. Tobey Maguire doesn't seems to age at all! But Kirsten Dunst had some visible aging problem. Fantastic acting from James Franco as Harry Osborn. He really got a nice bod. So, with good movie and great casts, you will be sure to glued to your seats for the entire 2 hours! Well, unless you have weak bladder la. I rate them 3.5 out of 5. So, do catch them in the cinemas NOW!

Will there be a fourth? I hope so...
