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...

459. bang trick

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

Last night's sudden downpour shook me up from my bed. The wind was so strong that the entire curtain in my room was "flying" above my head! Oh gosh! That came really unexpected. But then again, it makes sleeping even better. Haha.

I simply love dear's golden retriever. He is sooooooo cute! And since when did he learn the "bang" trick? I was just trying out my luck when he sudden do it! Haha.

Have you watched "200 Pounds Beauty"??? Remember, it's a MUST watch movie! Strongly recommended by Rice! Heehee. Anyway, enjoy my favourite song from the movie -- Maria by Kim Ah Joong. Maria... Ave Maria...

458. sentosa

Quote of the day: A hungry man is an angry man.

Finally, the sun is smiling to Singapore! We can all feel the warmth after many days of heavy downpour. We were so worried that the rain might continues today when we are at Sentosa but phew, alls well! At least I managed to get just a lil tanned then the normal days. Ok, it's really just a LIL tanned. What can you expect from an evening sun?

My weights regime at home seems to work! Woohoo! Well, at least the rest can see the slight increase of bulk on my arms. Heehee... *grin* But there's more to go. By hook or by crook, I must loose weight. Ok, maybe not by crook but am trying hard to watch my diet.

Back to Sentosa today. The tram from Vivo to Sentosa seems pretty nice, except the cabin was a lil small. Something like the LRT but perhaps it's a weekend and therefore too many visitors. First time on luge and it's pretty fun! But what a pity, the ride was a short-lived one. Not really possible to take photos when you are riding one. Wanted to try but I rather not take the risk. The sand at Silso Beach is forever rough. It's such a pity right?

A short swimming and tanning by Siloso Beach and then it was dinner time. Felecia had booked seats at this place -- Cafe Del Moar. The only thing that I can say is that it really had fantastic ambience by the sea. But today was a damn bad experience with them. We placed our order at about 7pm and till 8.15pm, my order wasn't even served! What the heck?!? I've ordered the grilled chicken and perhaps they are still plucking it's feather! Taking into consideration that their menu isn't exactly cheap.

"May I know what's taking so long? We've placed our order quite some time ago."
"I'm so sorry sir but the system had some technical problems and we are trying to clear all orders as soon as possible."
"But why is the other tables being served first when we are here much earlier then them?"
"Oh, their table is smaller so they had cleared them first."
"?????"

It's a similar conversation but what the heck? Your system screwed up is your problem. We placed our order first so get them out asap! I can walk into any big and busy restaurants, place my orders and I DON'T need to wait for more than an hour to get them served! And what do you mean that the other tables are smaller and so clear them first? Isn't such on a first come first served basis? Rule of thumb for those in F&B industry -- A hungry man is an angry man, so don't ever make them more hungry!

We still got our food... more than an hour after we've placed our orders. Honestly, it's way too salty. The alcoholic content in their cocktails are so "generous" that I can barely taste them. Oh well, this is my first and definitely last time that I'm having my meals at this cafe. I rather eat at Vivocity.

Anyway, it's Ruling's birthday! Happy birthday gal! May all your dreams come true... But so sorry, I'm not the fairy godfather who grant wishes. Heehee...

457. 雨下整夜

Joke of the day: It's just another day in school and the mathematics teacher decide to pop some questions for the class.
Teacher : Timmy, if there are 5 birds standing on the wall and the hunter fired at one. How many birds are there left on the wall?
Timmy : None as all the birds will fly away after hearing the gunshot.
Teacher : The answer should be 4 but I like your answer.
Timmy : Teacher, let me ask you. There are 3 ladies sitting on a bench eating a 3 scoop ice-cream. The first lady uses tongue and tickles cautiously off the top scoop only. The second pushes the ice-cream all the way into her throat till she can feel the cone and pulls it out and repeats again. The third lady licks the base of the third scoop closest to the cone. Which of these ladies is married?
The teacher thought for a while and blushes.
Teacher : The second lady.
Timmy : Wrong. The answer should be the lady who is wearing the wedding ring but I like your answer.

昨天的雨下得很大,我的心里也跟着一起下起大雨来。我是个怎样的男朋友?我是好的男朋友吗?

女人害怕男人沉默,其实男人也害怕女人沉默。很矛盾对吗?男人怕唠叨,也怕沉默。对我来说,越沉默我就会越胡思乱想。当她越保持沉默,我就想得越多。而当我想得越多,我就越没有安全感。我的噩梦就是由第三者的介入,因为我上一段的感情就是被第三者的介入而粉碎。但如果她越沉默,我的脑袋就会偏偏的望这里想。再加上种种的小动作如不想牵手、讲话语气、对我烦躁、不闻不问,我会几乎完全没了安全感与自信心。

请给我安全感好吗?不要再沉默了……因为我好害怕……

心理的雨下了整夜,我也没好好的睡。

昨天晚上也和dear,轩安和他的朋友,一起看了南大传播系第三年级的最后作品。有让我几乎睡着的、有拍手叫好的、有内容深奥的、有好兰剧本但大家都喜欢看的,也有趣味十足的。会对我参与这种放映会觉得奇怪吗?其实我会去看的原因很简单 -- 再不远的将来我也会是传播系的兼职学生,而这种放映会能让我对我以后可能要做的东西又跟多的概念。但我还是对广播有比较大的兴趣。

明天会到圣淘沙玩上个半天。糟糕!我还是看起来很!怎么办?

456. s.h.i.t

Rant of the day: Why is my msn connecting and disconnecting and connecting and disconnecting?

455. 心里旋律

Annoucement: Oh my gawd! You can see me in Y.E.S 93.3 vidcast. Well, you'll need iTunes first to download ya...

我好喜欢这一首歌哦!转音部分很难掌握,但希望能学好了在KTV秀一秀。哈哈!好不要脸哦!送给大家,林宇中在最新专辑《淋雨中》里的第一波主打歌 -- 旋律。

林宇中 -- 旋律

你是眼里的音乐 最动心的歌
你播着全世界突然亮了

多么实在的感觉 望着你的脸
这一刻我到了被人遗忘的永远

在陌生的街 天让我们遇见
像迷路的人找到了回家的路线

你的美丽我要珍惜昨天会忘记
是谁遗失了你我愿陪着你找回(你)自已
当你姓名化作旋律在我脑海里
我已确定那个人就是你
窝在我心里最动听的Melody

454. wake up call

Quote of the day: 男人最怕女人唠叨,女人最怕男人沉默。

Got woke up this morning, not by my alarm clock, but a wake up call from dear. She had got the Spiderman 3 tickets! Woohoo! But how much ah? She didn't give me any details and she's also not replying my smses. Oh well, perhaps she's busy now.

How I can't wait for spidie to sling to Singapore man! I'd watched both the previous 2 episodes and definitiely not going to miss this one. Logan just told me that all the tickets are sold out for the launch and he couldn't get the tickets now! Oh my gawd! That's fast! Looks like the spider fever is about to start soon. So start slinging your way through now!

Tomorrow will be the 100th day since my grandpa passed away. Hope he's doing well up there in another world. Light prayers (I hope) will be done tomorrow from afternoon onwards till don't know what time.

453. i'm out

Rant of the day: I'm so tired.

Don't worry. I didn't jump off the building after they announced the results. Neither did I drank detergent for breakfast. It's just unfortunate that I'm out from the competition but honestly, their written test was super difficult man! Well, maybe difficult for peps like me who haven't hand-written chinese for so long.

Thanks so much to dear who had been accompanying me through the entire event since morning's written test till the result announcement. You must be so tired. Muacks! Love you lots. Also, thanks to Felix and his beau who were also there to support me. It's really greatly appreciated. Thanks to all those who sent sms to support me. But, sorry to disappoint you guys. I didn't make it.


Audition @ Plaza Singapura. Result: IN!


Semi Finals @ IMM. Result: OUT!

The journey from audition to semi finals might be a short-lived one but the experience is fantastic. It's my first time joining a competition that was held on outdoor stage and my first time to qualify for semi finals. In fact, my first time to qualify for semi finals after all my participation in different competitions. I'm happy actually.

But am I trying too hard?

452. 200磅美女

Rant of the day: I'm getting more and more nervous!!!

刚和dear看了《200磅美女》。真得很好看!不愧是韩国10大票房的电影。大概描述一名歌声一流但却重200磅的女生,一直梦想能和英俊潇洒的梦中情人在一起。因为歌声完美而成为歌手的幕后原唱。为了变美和瘦身,她不惜一切的取整容和运动。一年后,竟然变成了大美女并成为了有名望的歌星!可是……她快乐吗?失去了好朋友。不认疯疯癫癫的父亲。她真的快乐吗?

影片笑中有泪。我又是一把鼻涕和一把眼泪的立场了。但是故事真的拍得很好笑!简单的剧本却表达了很多现实能看见的东西。有空一定要去看哦!我在此大力推荐这一部《200磅美女》!

想一想,你会为名利和爱情而放弃一切吗?这一切包括了家人和朋友。愿意吗?大家的答案都是“不愿意”对吗?可是我相信当一模一样的状况摆在眼前时,会有人“愿意”。

脸上长了青春痘,怎么办?!?明天就演上台比赛了!是因为压力?还是因为身体燥热?《明星DJ争霸赛》50强比赛明天就在IMM举行。我千万不要紧张……要加油哦!
