Crash Down On Me.
I know sometimes I act like an insolent brat who can't shut his mouth. Though not many times, but hell, I apologise.
I did some homework today, for formal letter writing. Must thank sh again for the homework prep or else I couldn't get the complian letter written. It's not complete but at least it makes sense.
What's more important at THIS point of time, is our awareness.
I got to know from CSI, that everyone is related to everyone else in the world by just six people. So no matter who died out there, dying in mother ocean's grasps, is someone we know indirectly. People die by the seconds, and none of us really bother about their deaths, the pain everyone of their relatives felt is just as stabbing as losing your closed one.
I know I'm just shitting here, but hey, try to be concerned. Pray, and hope for the best. No one wanted this, but all happens as life's plan, yet how can we act like it's all predestined. God help us. And give those who fell with the tides peace.
Ass Off.

Mae is good, I like the lead vocalist. Shit, I can't find his name. They don't really look like band together, don't have the band look, but their good. His vocals are very clear and crisp, better than some idiotic celtic rock and those vocalists try to slang like some demonlicous cult music. Their good emo, emo... emo rocks.
*Pauses to think*
Yes, emo rocks.
Anyway, no hesitation there, just trying out a new way of blogging that seems more interesting.
Mandy Moore should be in a band, her vocals are damn bastardy good. I mean she's good on her own, but bands are cooler than solo artists. Like Michelle Branch has her own band, like Avril, they don't get very known cause their band members change here and there and the band don't really crave the attention. Oh yeh, ashlee has one too.
Damn Avril, she seems like she's using her band members. She's becoming like LP. PESSIMISTIC LYRICS. Man, I know you got talent gal but hey, sing about something more cheerful.
*waves fist in the air*
Merry Christmas!
As usual, this year had to run for christmas mass this morning, at 12 am. The bells started ringing and all that, we had this huge performance before that from 'Cantate Domino Choir' of Risen Christ Church. Their voices are so much cooler than our frigged up choir, and they got there harmony all right. Great job dudes. just that their conductor was ALWAYS slanging when he sang, quite pissed, sounded like an older version of Iven.
Anyway, first time in my life when mass started and I felt so much energy yeah? Mean, everyone was like gonna sleep, and at the stroke of twelve, the bells rang, and we had beautiful hymns to welcome Him onto earth. It was glorious and magnificent yeah? I mean I'm not a big emo kid now but it was like, you could feel Him coming down, and every heart igniting a candle. Real awesome. It's the first midnight mass I went to that I felt that. Chaw, da wonders of puberty. haha.
And after the mass ended, we just greeted each other. Even strangers, just being merry. Too bad I didn't stay down for long like, wanted to talk to TIMOTHY my ex choir junior who I didn't even know was CATHOLIC. Man, he has christian friends. Shit, I gotta gotta gotta join my church's youth group or sth. Though I'm even really baptised properly. Means gotta attend church school and all that. When I grow up that is.
Woohoo, Ocean Avenue just rocks, speaking of which, Gar Meng got me OCEAN AVENUE! Isn't he great? Yeah, thanks so much again. It's great, Yellowcard is kinda emo? I dunno, they seem to write this album thorugh a common phase in life or something, real cool. Naw, didn't go out with friends or anything this year, mabbe wanted to awe at the sights in Orchard Rd? But really, christmas is ending so soon. Sad, it's a great night, great carols, great atmosphere... but not to worry! TOMORROW'S Mum's Birthday! So it's a double happiness thing. Yeapp! Haha.
Len - If You Steal My Sunshine
"Hey Matt,"
"Yeah Tim?,"
"Hey have you talked to Mark lately?"
"Uhh, I haven't really talked to him but he looks pretty, uh, down?"
"Hehehe, he looks pretty, uh, down...."
"Yeah, well, maybe we should cheer him up then,"
"What do you, uh, suppose we should do?"
"Well, does he like buttered tarts?"
I was lying on the grass on Sunday morning of last week
Indulging in my self-defeat
My mind was thugged all laced and bugged all twisted wrong and beat
A comfortable three feet deep
Now the fuzzy stare from not being there on a confusing morning weak
Impaired my tribal lunar-speak
And of course you can't become if you only say what you would have done
So I missed a million miles of fun
I know it's up for me
If you steal my sunshine
Making sure I'm not in too deep
If you steal my sunshine
Keeping versed and on my feet
"Check, c'mere c'mere, c'mere,"
"Wow, look at her,"
"I know,"
"I've never seen sharon look so bad before,"
"I did once before, but this is pretty bad..."
"Yeah, what do you think she got up to last night?"
"Er,hehehe,"
"Well, i, karen i love you!!"
I was lying on the bench slide in the park across the street
l-a-t-e-r that week
My sticky paws were in to making straws out of big fat slurpy treats
An incredible eight foot heap
Now the funny glare to pay a gleaming tare in a staring under heat
Involved an under usual feet
And I'm not only among but I invite who I want to come
So I missed a million miles of fun
I know it's up for me
If you steal my sunshine
Making sure I'm not in too deep
If you steal my sunshine
Keeping versed and on my feet
If you steal my sunshine
I know it's done for me
If you steal my sunshine
Not as some and hard to see
If you steal my sunshine
Keeping dumb and built to beat
If you steal my sunshine
My Sunshine
If you steal my sunshine x10
Oveerrrrrrrrrrrr!!
Hoho, finally the day off. Well, supposed to work like in Raffles City from today until the 23rd? but I guess the management didn't want a promoter there. Kinda figures anyway; I mean it's Raffles City right? Definitely have loads of customers without even having to stand there and drain the day off.
Well, ferrget that and I still gained a cool 200 smackers, plus my 20 and GM's 36, I should have enough if I wanna get my hands on those khaki converse shoes, that's if I still want it sia. I dunno, I have like only 6 presentable shirts out, and only 4 that I like, so hell, I'm stuck with the wardrobe. Heck it.
Well, about the Daniel incident (not ma, some other dude), I feel abit guilty la, after scrutinising him. So I guess I'll stop? yeah, and btw Charmed Season 7's already on air in the U.S, so yeah, hope to see more Rose McGowan! haha, fair skin beauty, she is.
Yeah, the promotion ended kinda well? Made friends with all the other popular staff there. Especially Jasmine, she's a real funny gal, looks alot like Kevin Chen and has that childish winnie-the-pooh frenzy (second one I've met in my life lol). Loads of pretty girls, all overaged for me? But they were flirting haha, so I guess it's sad I didn't get their numbers and all that. Cause I'm like the youngest working there. 15 is like a year underaged for pro-work. K, speaking of which, tmr have to go swimming liao, 5 days no exercise man.
Well, maybe after the x'mas week I'll work again, that is if I can finish all my holiday homework in time. It's so frigging fast sia.. next year sec 4 liao... stress stress.. you guys coming to sec 3 - it's the BEST time in sec sch life so enjoy it! (including myra haha).
Speaking of which, the other day went to eat at Boon Keng there? near the UOB store? Saw my upstairs neighbour working as a cleaner. I was so shocked. He's like so old, abit senile and he has bad legs.. I really feel sad he has to work at this age. Shows how good our children can be. Well, I hope he's alright there, and live a decent quiet life soon :]
You Won't Miss A Thing.
How To Be A Disney Promoter For Dummies:
1. Never block a customers line of sight; cause once you stand among some posters, and he/she sees you, 50% of the time he/she would forget buying.
2. Never try to promote your goods to Dads with their kids. They never buy anyway.
3. No matter how much you hate Jack-Jack from The Incredibles, he is always the high-demand, low-supply one.
4. That is followed by Dash. And I really wonder why, really.
5. Nobody buys bad guys, but don't be surprised to find one or two missing.
6. Remember to arrange with the most colourful up in front, and what is most popular facing the larger amount of the commonfolk.
7. If you're shy, you don't have to talk to any customer, sometime it even turns them off. Just arrange, repair, stock up, stock check, talk to other staff, until you get your 8-hour pay.
8. By the way, 1-8 isn't an 8 hour pay. Sometimes you muddle it up after working, trust me you will.
9. Try to look busy, it'll make you feel busy and not just stand there waiting to answer questions from the customers.
10. If it's the last day of promotion, make sure everyone KNOWS it.
11. Try to put your targets as middle-aged chinese aunties.

Work sucks... first day only sold 3 stickers.. sian. SH sold like 10+ one first day, I was stoning, guess I wasn't even helping customers. But some peeps they just zao when you approach them. Retarded, couldn't even help them like tell them jack-jack was the last in stock. At least the second day was much better, sold about 8. Just imagine, standing up for eight hours, what matters is the business.
And Jack-Jack stickers are all out of stock, it's the most popular one there. Have to wait for stock, maybe it'll come today, then I have to screw up stock check again. Stock check takes about a frigging 4 hours to finish; too many posters screwed up all inside. And I have some intuition that the cocked up cahier's talking behind my back. And he's like a guy? Shitty workplace.
Can't believe this girl picked up the Toy Story poster out of all the nice ones. man I didn't know anyone would even look at that. If it was me, I'd get the classic Mickey Mouse one that I displayed upfront. I purposely displayed some above the others to attract more attention, so lucky it works. Haiz, today is stock check day again, hello to hell.
No. 1 X'mas Gift:
Someone please get this for me. hmm, maybe I ask my Aunt Konica.

Damn sian today - I mean swimming. So dead boring, so after like one hour zao. Then the Hougang swimming complex mee siam sucked big time. $2.50 summore, feel like bashing up the shopkeeper. SH wanted to buy cup noodles.. omg $2 one cup sia... the big bowl one. Haiz, damn waste of money to eat there. And there are crows that immediately pick up after you.
GM, your hair is really abit butchy, anyway I have no grudges with my haircut anymore, it's very cooling and simple lol. And btw, you dye that colour... not very suitable, maybe it should fade more then looks nicer. :]
haiz, go look for Miss Chua, she's not around on today. I really did nothing for art lor. Too slack liao, and job's coming up too.. means I got to burn midnight oil for the remaining days. Yeah, speaking of which, the Aric guy called us and told us some details, told us to give him our particulars etc. Start work on WED! Cooool like crazy, can't wait. At least finally got something to do that's worth the time :]
I got to know Goldfinger last night, GM reco one... got to hear a damn nice song from them, with Mest and Good Charlotte - The Innocent. Written for the 911 incident. How thoughtful sia.. lol. So went to check out Mest, and their neat.. great compilation of songs too. Goldfinger is ska, and I love ska, its like big bang rock.. heh, whatever that means lol.
Look look look. Hawthorne Heights, Lola Ray, Bayside! great bands.. they all did a tour together. Mannn too bad it's over, like I can go for a live concert liddat lol.
Haha Finally Jobbed.
Damn sian, went to queensway with Aaron and Hoops cause he wanted to buy some shirts/shoes. Well, of course I didn't have cash to buy anything. Dammit, nice shoes, nice clothes, and all kinda reasonable. But of course I'm half-retro so loads of stuff wasn't very very desirable..
So we ended up like going round and round the first level looking for good shoes for him... so after loads of bargaining and this and that, went to converse. They had converse vintage! Man, it was a faded denim material... looked kinda clown for Aaron, but maybe Jon got big feet so it looked ok on him. Too bad he's not buying cause it came with a wooden box! And some green bag, damn damn nice.. $149 around there, ex like hell. They got a some cheap clothes that looked cool, and went Jon's house.
He got a guitar! Man man man... and he was like self-learning or something, so learnt how to play the majors on guitar, but I can't remember anything I learnt lol. Feel like playing again, maybe another time go his house. I'm too poor to buy a guitar, maybe when I've learnt the basics then get 2nd hand or sth.
Didn't talk much cause they were talking amongst themselves more often and summore about stuff that I didn't know or sth. Welp, it was fun, at least I got to know what I wanna buy cause when I got home and told mum about the cheap shirts she say I could've asked her for a 50 to get some new clothes before cny!... man damn jack. But nvm... we're going again next week, I mean if I get my job and got a day off la.
Speaking of job, the guy from printedge FINALLY called me. Damn damn happy, at least got something to do now... but can't do sports.. haiz, so kinda sian. Maybe I go swim like siao before sch reopens. He asked me which of my friends were interested, then told him sh and dl la... but DL is too LAZY to go and work so left me and sh. There's a promotion at West Mall, Bukit Batok there for us to work as promoters... well, better than nothing, so Mon he's gonna gimme the details woohoo!
Don't Give A Damn.
Damn happy, meddled with my sims 2 files and I got it to work! Haha, I guess it was the right crack and finally the directx 9.0c was working.. took ages sia. K, haven't even done abit of the holiday homework, too sian.. man I wish I could watch 'without a paddle' but sorry gm cause I need cash and I have to wait until you return it. Haha, keep that in mind pls :P
K, about windstruck, see ya next week about it. Finally got slack period today, after two days going out. Realised Kianger changed alot.. for the better? yeah, I guess. But I don't talk to him cause he's like those peeps that has a church youth group their very affliated with, sadly my church has too little youths to do that. Whatever it is, yesterday's soccer was fun, but it'd be more shiok if that old black couch was still on the second floor at aaron's house, that was damn comfy.
False alarm sia... sh actually left his hp upstairs so he didn't catch me msging or calling him... anyway I guess if one person can screw a friendship just like that, then we weren't really buddies, so I'm chilled. Haha, I'm damn crappy with stuff like that. Whew, damn relaxed cause at least I'm myself again after yesterday .. haha, hey I'm still sy. Might not be as funny as dan, at least I get myself and know why I joke :]
.
Went Aaron's house. Kinda empty. Felt very unwelcomed la.. just that, actually no big deal. I guess more importantly, I know me and SH are very good friends; but when Dan comes into the picture then he seems to ignore me... guess he likes Daniel more. I'm just pissed I'm such a lousy friend. Went home earlier cause felt like a party pooper, and nothing to talk about.. it's still kinda awkward. Well, I'm damn tired. Later.

Finally choir performance at Sentosa'a over. We sucked big time. I don't like Miss Gan, she's so hard up with getting us to do those professional songs when we can't. She has some high expectations on the choir mannn... she's just not as good as Miss Ong, can't she call her back and teach us?
But when we queued up for BK the second coutner girl was real hot. She didn't have that ass-high-girl look. Very down-to-earth and cute. Even Ezra agree... mann me and Dan bugged him tog et her no. for us. Lol, yeah, we're kinda cheap. The countergirl I was queuing up for was also pretty.. haha, great place BK @ Sentosa.
Still wanked about this retarded haircut. I can't keep short hair.
Aaron's coming down tomorrow. Kinda curious how he looks, we hit off pretty well online, but I bet we'll be speechless when I go meet up with him tomorrow with the other guys. He's gonna wear pink.. lol, says it's quitwe fad-ish over there. And having premarital sex is common too. K, I was kinda aghast; but he hasn't done it la.. (of course! Virginity rocks, I wrote back..lol).
Was really f**ked up with the haircut a few days back, so forgive me. Anyway at least I'm used to it now. I think, heck, let it grow; it'll be ok by the time school reopens.
SH, Tong Liang and I went to CS Library, ended up borrowing this swimming manual. The book's pretty good, tell you what kind of diet to follow, what exercises to work for what swimstyles etc. I think I corrected my freestyle, and gonna try breast stroke prime and proper next time. Kay I'm damn lazy, haven't even read the thing properly. Gotta read it.
Man, I'm falling for The Silence. Fortissimo Y Vivace to you.
w.t.h
I just got the worse haircut ever. Freaking pissed. And it's the same gal who got me the better cut a few months back.
I got new specs, and was intending to wear 'em with a good haircut. Wtf. Damn it nvm. It'll grow back soon.
Btw net's back.
