gimme that..

guess we all need a break once in a while so i'm might be going away for the weekend wif fiz. its been so long since i;ve seen her and i think its gonna be sweet.

xcape!

spent the sat at escape theme park in pasir ris. didn't want to go in the first place but change my mind on fri and i'm glad i went. got to know some of my colleagues and some of the rides almost gave me a heart attack. (now i know where to bring fiza on her b'day :p) was telling my colleague that they shld hve had this rides like ten years ago when the heart is still strong. we had a game like the amazing race n we wld guess the next point. on reaching there, we had a brain teaser which we had to solve. if we can solve it, all of us had to take the ride and if we solve it, only two hve to take the ride. in some cases where we cld solve the brain teaser, we still went for the rides. it was kinda fun.... but the heavy lunch we had before the games wasnt a good idea. my group which consist of three guys and two girls, came in last.hahahaha... coz we were model citizens and queue at every game point. :p we had dinner after that at the beach and some of us told ghost stories. some were actual events that happend to them and it was quite scary but of course since pasir ris didn't belong to us, all good things had to come to an end. took the bus ride back and was talking to my colleague who lives in yishun too.


sunday was spent in church attending the parish assembly from 2 to 5pm. the initally part of it was sooooo boring coz it was full of information but when we broke into groups, the topics were much more clearer and i shld say the dicussions were fruit-full. i certainly hope the ppl wld support the youth rather than expecting too much from them. do remember that we were young once ourselves and things were much diff back then. lets come together as a family and let us build.


one thing i realised what sets the previous choir diff from this one, is one guy - william cai. looking back i guess what he had done for the choir was amazing and will be hard to duplicate. i guess by doing what he did brought us all closer together despite all the ups and downs we had. we worked hard and play hard. i guess what we are missing here is that we all caught up with our life that we are forgetting to reach out. we are expect too much from the young ones but we dont not deliver ourselves. its a fifty-fifty world out there and juz because we are adults doesn't mean that we do not make mistakes - we are not gods. when the young ones work hard, we have to work twice harder... we always have to be one step ahead of them, so they don't fall. nobody is perfect hence mistakes are made everyday and corrected everyday. for the young ones, this is their time lets not take it away from them. given a chance, we would like to trade places with them anytime. so give them some room to grow, be their friend and confidant. rules are meant to be broken and authority has to come with respect. we all just to give a little more to make the world a better place.


i had a better weekend this time ard, thanks to nessa, joanne p and pat! love u gals...

this could happen to u

kids running wild in the night
a stolen kiss - a broken heart
lost souls wondering in search of love
a promise made - a promise broken
thoughts running wild in their minds
a mistake made - a life taken away
trying to face reality again
a shot in the dark - a jump in the dark
face unrecognisable - body unrecongnisable
an innocent life taken away

soaking up the sun by rochster @ 05/18/2006

friends

looking back i guess we've all seen each other laugh, cry and puked!! saw the good side and the worse side of each other. been there for one another in the dead of the night when the rest of the world are sleeping.. tot of every drinking games possible just to get drunk!! stole a kiss or two... and even more!! went thru hell and back; learnt every lesson that was to be learnt. now we're all grown up and have gone our separate ways but the bond is still there. something that we can't understand or describe it but we know its still there. for those who were there and went thru all the ups and downs, wld understand how much we went through and came out stronger.

help

slept the whole day but my body is still burning hot. never been this sick before and i'm pretty scared. guess, i'll take a cold shower, see the doctor get an mc, and have a plate of hot noodles.




updated @ 0051hrs.


went to see the doctor earlier on, intending to find out whats wrong with me. unfortunatey the doc was a new kid on the block, not the regular ones i use to see. so i just got my medications for the fever, cough, running nose, heading ache and MC for tmr. i finally had something to eat also. doctor advised was to drink lots of warm water.. i went out and got myself a lime drink. ;p like i told a friend today, i just preparing an early funeral for me. hahaha...

moving on....

this is my fourth time trying to blog this down. in all three instances, my comp hangs and it juz drove me crazy. i guess somebody up there does not love me. okie i hope this time it will be good. ealier this morning, despite having a temp tat was below body temp, i had go out in the pouring rain to fetch my mom from church. only to find my mom with my eldest bro and they're abt to go to northpoint to have lunch. the rain has subsided by then, so i came back home. now after two hours or so, it has started to really pour out there and there is high chance of possibility that i'm goin out there to fetch my mom from northpoint. sigh... i will not recover anytime soon, maybe i'll just leave this world in my sleep...who knows.


anyways, i guess my small home base fans will be happy to hear this. although i went clubbing ytd, i didn't drink at all and came back home early. :) after ytd, i guess my clubbing days are over, its time to take the slower lane. like a friend just message me when i told her that, 'yes, join me in growing old and acceptin' defeat against the young hyper generation'. how true.. i guess i'll handover the baton to mel, carol and so on to take care of the next generation of clubbers. here's a note to the next generation, if u don't club - it does not mean u're not cool. just be yourself, believe in yourself and ppl will respect u for that. do not follow the trend, create your own - be unique not weird.


anyways, we were having dinner with my choir mates ytd and i received an sms from tony - it read, 'liverpool 0 - west ham 2'. wtf?? but i replied, 'it ain't over till the fat lady sing!' mel said that we'll do another istanbul and true enough, we did another Istanbul; liverpool came back fighting to win their 7th FA Cup!! where are u chelsea?? ;p


on my way back from the club, i realised who are my true friends - the ones that really understands me and knows when i need my space or when i was lying about it. hence, looking back, i shall juz cut off some ties and treat some as accquitance coz i just feel that we're not in the same league. so its best that i move on. its no point being the nice guy coz it won't get you anywhere with gals, esp if u hve something for them. they'll treat u like a good friend or brother, so there's a certain boundary. so give up and move on, find someone who will appreciate u and never do the same mistake again.


i feel so sick and hungry but i have no taste left in my tongue. i guess i'll drink a cup of coffee n see whats there to eat. take some medication and sleep till eternity.

u give me fever...

sigh...i am still alive. so shld i club or not??? hmmm... i've seen worse days and better days, *achoo* so i shld be okie. *snif sniff* i think i should get ready for church first. i will survive. *cough cough cough* its the cough that is a killer, it makes me feel my age. LOL. I just thought of a pick up line i cld use on a girl today, 'you give me fever!!' wauahahahaha....


the kooks is on the radio and i'm outta here!!

advice 2 D young @ heart

here's an advice to the young @ heart,
take care of health.

my parents use to tell me that but i would brush them aside. thinking that i would never experience what they're going thru. boy am i wrong... i realised recently the when i fall sick, it gets worse everytime and i don't fall sick often. maybe twice the year at the most, but everytime i do, it just gets worse. as u prob know that i am sick, the fever has subsided but the cough is still there. the little problem with the nose tap is coming soon. the coughs are getting worse, almost blank out juz now. after coughing i saw stars... it was my 'bad' actually, i had a cold orange drink juz now. yes yes, i should be taking warm water... and i will right after this. the orange drink has gone.. and i will be heading to bed afer this. so in case, i do not wake up, i have left a will to my family and friends:- to my castle, the porsche, lambo, jaq; the home theatre system, the studio and the bathtub!! wuahahahaha


okie, okie... i will sleep now!! ;p

did the poseidon sink or swim?

caught 'poseidon' with robin today and to tell you the truth, i recommend you to put your money on the originals - 'the poseidon adventure'(1972) and 'beyond the poseidon adventure' (1979). this 2006 remake, is nothing close to the original, you would rather stay home and watch 'the perfect storm' or 'titanic'.

bored..

'i saw u walking in the rain,
you were holding hands and i..
never be the same..'


its another rainy day and someone out there is gonna cheat on their lover. so go out and make love, its couple day off. if anything happens, just say 'it wasn't me!'. yes i am super bored at home with a bad cough and nothing much to do except to change my blogskin. tell me wot u think of it but i'm not gonna change it. hahahaha....

something's telling me to get of the comp as the lightning is getting dangerously close to my room but then again 'its better to burn in hell then to fade away'. if u find that phrase familiar, it was from the movie, 'Highlander' - There can only be One!! i used the same phrase evertime i kill a cockroach. wauahahahaha..........
...
..
.
okie okie, u stop laughing now. ;p

good, let's continue... tell u if the lightning don't kill me, my cough will. i will put an old man to shame everytime i cough. i will sure love a cough syrup now...anyone??


'American Idol' Reject Chris Daughtry's
Offered Spot in Rock Band

yes, folks. hours after being booted out he was offered a job with the band Fuel. i guess i could hear all the girls screaming and kissing the screen as they read but please keep ur hands on the keyboard and not anywhere else. the same goes for guys too... :p so now that chris who was the hot fav to win is gone, who wld u think will win. my bet is on taylor hicks. he rocked the stage when he did the elvis number and he just have that certain vibes in him. well, let see who will come on tops and once that is done, we can sit back and enjoy Singapore Idol 2.

okie. i'm out off here, gonna catch Poseidon at GV Yishun with robin. cya

life is such

one more day to a long weekend but i've to work on sat...sigh. feeling like i coming down with fever...having coughs now and soon to be followed by headaches. i'm getting too old for this kind of shit...sigh. eversince i starting working in this company i have gained weight again and its very depressing...gonna hit the gym soon. starting tmr if i'm not too sick.. work's been okie so far getting to know the colleagues better and i guess everyone is going thru a stressful period...as the volume of calls keep increasing and never seem to subside.

life is such...first there was three of us and soon it will be only two. all the best bro, if u r deciding to leave the company! hope u find what u r looking for..

world wide suicide

been really tired of late, not sure why but at times i feel like blacking out. guess the years of hanging out and partying out late has finally started to take its toil on me. i guess time is catching up with me and i'm starting to slow down. juz looking forward to the weekend to juz chill out n space out, and i guess the last night out for me.. before i call it quits. received debz wedding card today, the little girl i once knew is getting married. its juz another little reminder that i;m no longer getting any younger. looking very much to the wedding this June... its gonna be beautiful! in the meantime, i'm gonna stand back for a while and take a good look @ life and the people around me.

Have you crashed?

CRASH
Moving at the speed of life, we are bound to collide with each other.

I would strongly recommend you, yes you!, to watch 'Crash'. It stars Sandra Bullock, Don Cheadle, Matt Dillion, Brendan Fraser, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, Ryan Phillippes and many more. I guess its like no movie i've ever seen before, this movie will leave an impression for a very long time.

when a friend calls...

juz got off the phone with you, didn't knew that you were going thru a lot these past days. i'm glad that u were able to laugh again despite what you are going through. hope that fate will chance upon you and everything will be solved. i wish u all the best that life can wish for. its 5.30am and i'm off to bed for a few hours.

the future of Singapore is tmr!!

yes, its the weekend again. funny how times flies.....the future of singapore is tmr!! the song, re-election day - duran duran, has been on my mind for the longest time now and they should just blast the song all over singapore tmr!! okiez okiez.. i;m outta here... gonna meet andi the fire-fighter @ starbucks!! its gonna be a non-acoholic weekend!! :p check out this group 'Angels and Airwaves' guess they're gonna be big in time to come.

Obar - 28 Apr 2006

Celebrated Marilyn's birthday @ Obar.

04-05-06

nothing much to blog abt except the date is pretty cool today. bought two cd's over the weekend, - Music for Good, which features local bands like Electrico, Stoned Revivals, Lunarin and of course, Camra. All proceeds from this album goes to Music For Good, a charity org which aids disadvantage children and youth-at-risk through a variety of music programs. Another album that I bought is. MySpace Records Volume 1. a compilation album from the good people of MySpace.com.

~`~
feeling pretty down of late not sure why. seems like i'm missing someone but not sure whom. somedays i feel like retreating and seeking refuge underneath a big rock. to be lost in this faceless world, is better than to face it.

what scares you...

An American Haunting Trailer

MI:3

went to watch Mission Impossibe 3 with chris and it rocked! not much of a story line but the action sequence is good. a lot of good actors n explosions like blowing up a lambo! almost the same one that i saw on sunday at zouk...loved that car!

breaking down

got up today not feeling good. the head hurts, the heart's beating twice as normal and my chest hurts everytime i take a deep breath. a sure sign that i'm not getting any better with age and i should slow down. thanks ven for your concern *hugs*.

came across this toy shop at raffles today and i was blown away by the star wars collections they have. its sure thing that i would visit the store again. :)

the fourth day!

met up with mary anne @ wisma for a drink or two. we both agreed that its been a long time since we met up with each other.looking are her while she spoke of her job, life and bf; i realised that she grown up so much. she was no more the little girl i once knew but someone who is juggling between a job, bf and being a mom to her beautiful son. from a much reserved girl who was afraid to speak to anyone, to a sales prompter of a well known boutique and she's doing well there. from what i hear, she might be offered to managed one store by herself. not bad for somone who started off in a very humble situation and she's been through a lot. i'm glad and happy that things are looking good for her.

anyays, i'll upload the pics from obar/liquid room and phuture soon.

Find Your Pose

Find your own pose!

the phuture was ytd

ytd was a night to remember...for a very long while. yours truly got freaking high, puked and still managed to send a friend back to bedok.it was a rare sight.

we ended up at phuture as liquid room was closed. came down with marie & gary, met crystal & lucas friends: sharon, chikin and bryan (?). (met wendy chee there, an ex-colleague of mine). lucas and i started the ball rolling by ordering 4 jugs of vodka canberry & orange, and it was 1 for 1. so yes, we ended up with 8 jugs. had a few tequila shots, some others shots in between. melvin and marilyn came later, so did marilyn friends - elvin & another guy. marilyn kinda warmed up to everybody easily and was complaining she wasn't high enough. so lucas ordered fifteen shots of 'sex on the beach', so it was between the three of us and i think thats when it kicked in and world looked like a big playground!! it was certainly a night to remember and although i wish fiz was there, i was glad that mal came. i remember mel was asking her why don't hook up with me, and she replied i'm too sweet n not mean at all. sigh...women! but nonetheless i had a great time!! had supper at spize again! had coffee only but mal was feeding me occassionaly. :)

well, three days of excessive clubbing, made some new friends and maybe a start of a ne chapter. but an advise to the young at heart, do not try this, unless u have ur best buds with ya!! till next time, happy labour's day!!
