Actually I do not know what to blog about.

I have been observing bespectacled people ard recently, it seems like half-frames specs are more popular now. But mine will be a no frame haha..and I dun usually follow trends cos well, they are trends and trends do become passé. And I dun have the slightest notion on why people think wearing white plasticky is 'nice' and trendy. They look like clowns IMO esp those with very thick frames type.

Today started with a slightly sunny morning and I got my arse out of the house by 11am for my CP appointment @ Raffles Hospital. Today's CP is no kick cos I was given a lower peel as I forgot to stop my retin-a 7 days before. There is a new gal @ the clinic, ahem not bad, with nice smile =X, saw her twice oredi =D Dr Yeak looked nice today with a flowery dress. The day continued with a bus ride home with my ears plugged in to my ipod blasting Elva and Faith Yang. I love to take buses, esp buses home. To me it is just something I look forward to, ok maybe its my bed I look forward to haha.

Had the luxury of a nap which I dreamt of strange events. I dreamt of my dad and he came back to life. =| The whole dream was disturbing cos I knew he passed away so how could he come back to life? Well, it is.. just a dream.

The day further continued with the news of my specs being delayed until next week cos the degrees of the lens is not accurate. There is nothing interesting on TV to watch besides my DVDs. Tags on my cbox came to a halt and I see days of boredom ahead. ahha.

Well it was certainly nice to chat in FP last evening. Added a few more podders to my growing list of MSN contacts ahahahaha...and a podder friend termed me Uncle Agony (I-AM-NOT-UNCLE!!!!) -.- Then again, it can be really draining to be 'Uncle Agony'.

Chats with a old online friend and I admit to her that I enjoy some form of attention, be it online or in real person. It makes me feel my own existence and probably in someone's mind and not feel so empty so void so...empty, at times.

And yes, being a designer is akin being a dog. But I do not bark, I might simply bite =D

[GANGSTERISM]

My day started with a middle aged man in the MRT talking to himself very loudly about asking someone to write a book on gangsterism, meeting and gathering gangsters from Geylang and meeting them @ Tanglin Police HQ, all the way from Sembawang till Bugis.

Work began with problematic MSN logins, 30pages of shit specification sheets and sluggish internet connections,credits to Taiwan earthquake..and munching on cheap snacks from Jpn. Yours Truly, btw bought more exquisite Jpn snacks from Jpn from my 2 Jpn business trip. If I am ard in Feb 2007, i wil be going Beijing on from the 26-28 for exhibition.

[Love Actually + Curse of Golden Flower]

I cannot believe I actually rejected a free premier of this lovely and heartwarming movie, Love Actually in 2003. Back then I was in British Council (temp) and I actually helped to do RSVP for this premier. I rem calling several embassies and also several artistes like Koh Cheng Mun, Hossan Leong, Lim Yu Beng, Irene Ang etc. Well after everything was done, my Director of Arts, Ms Lena St George Sweet asked me if I wanted to watch the premier and I rejected it! Anyway back then I was not too keen on meeting and greeting those socialites and all. I rem my ex wanted to watch too but...=x

Well the part which I like most of this movie is the part where there's this author and his temp house help. The 2 fell in love without each of them knowing! Even with the language barrier, they fell in love. It is intangibly touching when they were telling how they felt abt each other YET they do not understand. Guy says " Bringing u home is the happiest part of my day", gal says,"Leaving u is the hardest part of my day" T_T so touching! The guy who actually like his bestie's fiancee/wife is quite touching as well, he liked her yet keeping his distance as a respect for them. How many guys can do that now? The little boy who went all out to confess his love for that gal is also quite amazing haha..

While watching this movie, emotions swell up to almost to the brink of overflowing. Suddenly, the world seemed to be in colors again, suddenly it seemed to be warm n er..'pink' and alive. Then when the emotions sub-sided, things went back to normal and yes back to normal. Anyway, it is a brilliant movie tho it is bit hard to catch that British accent.

As for Curse of the Golden Flower, I cannot imagine if I watch the movie in HD. Even without HD, the entire movie is cluttered with shimmery gold, gold and more gold! Everything little props is carved with intricate oriental patterns. Chow Yun Fatt's emperor's robe is prb more brilliant than the usual club/disco's that shiny ball on top whatever u call that. And my friend told me that robe is 40KG! Imagine cladding on 40KG! Anyway, Gong Li's performance is stunningly brilliant. Jay Chow's uber modern look seems outta place. He really looked odd among the cast, as if some guy went back in time to ancient China. But his acting is not that bad too. As for Chow Yun Fatt, well he does not disappoint.

And yes it was freezing in the theatre.

[shopping @ AMK]

Went out with mum early in the morning to pay a visit to the Tse Toh Ann for my late dad's death annivesary. Having slept late the night before, I was tad grouchy. heh =x

Anyway after that we made our way to AMK Central. AMK Mall is going to be completed soon, after a 4 yrs wait? The colors were up but the other side seems pretty incomplete. We were told that it will be opened by this week. We had kway chap and the famous fried carrot cake for late breakfast before walking ard. Strangely enough, the grouchiness seemed to disappear after the meal..guess I must be hungry, a hungry man is an angry man indeed haaha. Mum was shopping ard for clothes while I simply tagged along..

We passed by a video shop and I saw the Korean drama which i have been looking for,"My Girl". Well I merely asked the price before walking off to look at other stuff such as scouting ard for a new pair of specs. We walked one round before passing by this video shop again and I bought the DVDs hehe. Later, we continued to go to a few shops before settling on one shop which I rem I did make a pair of specs in 1997/1998. Anyway this shop gave the best price though it did not have the frame model which I saw and wanted at the other shops. The downside is that this shop did not have many titanium frame models as compared to the other shops. Well, I settled on a similar looking one, this time is a no frame specs haha and with a so called 'unbreakable' lens. Never wore a no frame specs before and since there is no frame to house and protect the lens, I have to be more careful abt it.

I got my first pair of titanium frame specs in 1997/1998 at this spec shop. Ever since I have always insisted on titanium frames because they are light,strong and does not corrode easily. Almost all the metal frame specs I wore since 1992 corroded due to perspiration and it leave funny green color oxides residues.

Well,will be collecting the specs on Friday. I hope I will look different. anyone wanna see how i look like with the new specs? =X

Please leave down ur names.

1)
2)
3)

=D

Ok, nowadays I love looking at babies/toddlers. Dun u find them cute n shoooooo adorable? The innocence in their smiles and the way they look into ur eyes is so mesmorising and captivating and so pure. Well that is when they are not wailing and make a nuisance of themselves. I saw this toddler in AMK with his parents and grandparents. He could walk already and he was trying to climb the stairs, haha..then his parents were all fussing over him afraid he might fall.

In the afternoon, mum nagged again...to 'urge' me to find her a future daughter-in-law tskkkkkkk...so easy meh?

[resolutions?]

It is common that most people will give themselves resolutions for the new yr. But in an article from Straits Times Life, Ann Kwok said something like,she dun give herself any because if she wants to do something, there's no need to wait till the new year. How true is it! This phrase seems to be etched inside my head, somehow.

Right, so 2006 is drawing to an end and this year seems to pass particularly fast. I guess it is mostly due to my work. I have never been busier! Anyway, it is great that I have been kept busy. From Dec 2005 until Dec 2006, actually nothing much happened leh. I can say it has been a rather peaceful year for me. Surely there were some humps n all but overall, I guess I manage to survive.

Well for one thing, I survived Japan! haha..quite an experience being all alone in Tokyo in winter! This year alone I had several new experiences such as going for business trip for the 1st time, experiencing winter for the 1st time in Beijing, going to Jpn for the 1st time and experiencing snow in Hokkaido etc. Winter in Beijing was definitely unforgettable, it was fun puffing water vapour in the cold air. Winter is not as bad as I thought, I love winter absolutely. And how can I forget my 1st trip to the place which I have been wanting to go since I was 16,-JAPAN! (though sadly a business trip is not the most ideal) It was absolutely unforgettable seeing snow in Hokkaido for the 1st time. But I also got to know having snow falling on u was not that fun haha..cos it melts upon landing and u will get wet.

Buiness trips in Japan also opened my eyes on how businessmen in Jpn are like. They smoke non-stop as well as drink non-stop. For the 1st trip, I had abt 3-4days of booze and raw fishes and 2nd hand smoke haha. The 2nd one was not too bad, definitely lesser booze and smoke and raw fishes hehe.

Work wise, well I never felt as pressurized as before. Maybe this is because I am handling many things and some of these really...need more attention and effort.

Anyway, this year everything seems to be more on work. My ahem 'love life' is blank! haha..well for one thing, it is at least peaceful more or less. I can anticipate my relatives asking me if I have a gf etc on my cousin's wedding next month. Oh it is not only them who ask, even my Jpn agent asked! WAH LAO! When he came here for the 1st time, he kept 'encouraging' me to find one..when I went over to Jpn for the 2nd time in Sept, he asked 'kanojo dekita彼女できた? ( u got a gf?') It seems Jpn do marry younger than sgporeans.

Anyway for next yr, I hope to have

1) more savings
2) less acne marks on my face
3) less weight
4) PS3
5) higher pay
6) gf perhaps?

How abt u my dear reader(s),fan?

lastly, women's unreasonability knows no bounds, this pic of yoon eun hye in my blog? I have the same pic in my MSN avatar as well. One friend shot me when she saw my pic! Cos she said I took the pic from her classmate...immediately my reaction was WTF?! Yoon Eun Hye her classmate??? My princess is her classmate!? haha..nah she just have a Malay classmate who happened to have the same pose and same specs as it haha.

[half day]

I did not rem I was given a half-day for x'mas eve last yr...but anyway I was given one this yr! haha..

Anyway the half-day was spent in Raffles Hospital. I went there to replenish my acne anti-biotics cos they ran out on Wed. It was supposed to be tomorrow but since I was given half a day off I might as well go this afternoon. The place is good as usual with the friendly staff and all. Anyway I went off after getting my medicine cos my stomach was revolting haha..

I intended to go down to the foodcourt to have my lunch but it was packed..so in the end I went to the nearby KFC as I did wanna try the Ultimate Chicken Meal. It was $5.50, consisted of a measly Colonel Burger, one measly box of pop corn chicken, 1 reg Coke and a drumstick. It was not that bad actually. Anyway it was late so I did not wanna have rice or something. After settling the revolts, I proceeded to the nearby bus-stop for my bus 980. Wah lao the moment I went there, i saw my bus went off! So in the end, I have to wait.

Surprisingly I saw my cousin there. Wah big gal already, she was sooo rowdy and tom-boyish then haha..Time really flies. We chit chatted for awhile there before she boarded her bus and went off. Soon after my bus came.

Anyway, I took some pics of myself (ahem) and also a pic from the kitchen window hehe.

pic removed =D

pic removed =D

Oh yeah I did I posted some pics of myself too ard this time this yr! =O Anyway somethings did kinda repeat this yr..=/ And my gums still swollen =((

AND DUN LAUGH OK!!!! =D

[the week]

The week crawls...Things seem to be halted...people seem to be in festive mood and things seem to be slowing down...AND THINGS ARE REALLY SLOWING DOWN...

My Jpn agent is getting harder and harder to find, think he shld be clearing his leave? Ahh I dunno, maybe its good to unwind and take things slow a little.

I do hope things in other areas wil make some progress.

Flood gates are opened, 2 days of continuous rain has turned SG into a swamp land in some areas, trees fell and land slided...but at least this drove away the heat which has been blanketing SG for sometime. BUT there is no rain today..I dun welcome rain when I go work...it is not fun to go to office with wet socks and wet pants and wet shoes. The past 2 or rather 3 nights have been cool (literally) I enjoyed the walk home on the long concrete path with frogs (toads?) croaking in the patches of flooded fields with the scent of the rain lingering in the air. Well I saw a furry little rat scurrying along the wet field on Monday night and the next morning, i saw another one with its fur all soaked. Mayb its little home is flooded? haha..

A colleague invited me to his church's xmas 'party' @ Victoria's School, strangely enough I do feel like going. It is on a Sat and I need to replenish my acne antibiotics.

I want my long weekend...but I also hope it will not bore me.

And yes!!! the HP 17" CRT monitor has a buyer! Hope the deal goes on smoothly tml night..if not, anybody wan?

and....my gum is still swollen =(

[idleness is the devil's workshop]

Not sure when did I heard of this line (was it when I was in church?) but I know how true this is.

When I am idle, as in too free or you shou hao xian..things can go amok in my head..then u will see me behaving like a mad man haha..this is when I am bored of cos..I will disturb people..esp my poor friends will kena the most from me =X...anyway besides this,I think it is unhealthy to be too idle. Cos in the midst of getting attention, u might do some things which u usually dun do or even habour some thoughts of doing them which can be bad enough.

I feel most at ease when I am kept busy, when my mind is occupied processing somethings..then when I see how fast time flies, it made me happier cos as time flies it will be nearing lunch time or KO time! haha...

I am thinking of signing up as a volunteer...anyone wanna join me?

[1 week to xmas!]

Feeling kinda elated for no reason but..I guess the holiday seasons mood is hitting on me..plus the fact bosses are not in office, HOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO...

Oh yeah there's a warehouse sale near my workplace for office clothes, men and women as well as casual's. Time to shop for a new belt and some new clothes perhaps..and socks too. I got my socks just about one yr ago..goes to show how time flies. =/ My friend came today to take the PC away. I also passed him an old set of speakers which I promised to give it to him some time back.

Channel U showed 'House of Flying Dagger', I think it is a pretty crappy show. I wonder how will Curse of the Golden Flower fairs. But the cast is pretty strong tho, Chow Yun Fatt, Gong Li and Jay Chow. Anyway I wonder why the ladies in the show all have their buxoms all pushed up until.....haha..

AHHH CHRISTMAS!!!! PLS COME FASTER!!!!!

And yes it is Monday, once again.

[Double joys]

One of my closest cousin will be getting married next month, yay have wedding dinner to go to! (yes it is the food I am looking forward to and of cos meeting my cousins =D) Another joyous event is one of my close ex poly friends has been promoted to a father! hhaha..Of all my closest poly mates (those still in contact) I think he is the 'fastest' one haha. Sad to say, besides him it seems like most of us are either still single n unattached or not married.

Feeling elated, I told my mum about this when I woke up in the morning. Darn, it is a mistake. The moment I told her, she looked at me asking,'So when is ur turn?' =O She continued by saying 'Go find a nice gal la...' etc etc. -_-I will usually keep mum abt it. I think I will be hearing the same things when I go to my cousin's wedding next month, my uncles and aunts will be asking again RAAAAH... Anyway, what my mum said is not the first time already. Ever since I broke up with my ex (and not 'dating'), she has been asking now and then. heh...

I think most sg gals like 'out-going' guys, those who are eloquent, fun, have cars, adventurous, know how to party,dress up n cheong.. etc? No wonder those close friends ard me not attached! My closest friends (like me) dun smoke, dun club, dun gamble and they dun drink. I dun think we are boring or being a 'no lifer' but we just prefer the quieter lifestyle. For me, I rather pub then club and I know a nice jazz pub with 'live bands' in Circular Road.Oh the only friend who got married and now is a father is the same too, the ultimate family man type...yes he is married but his wife is not from sg.

Tsk, weekends always end so fast. I can smell it already.....can't wait for the long x'mas break hehe.

I hereby wish all friends,readers n 'fan' a MERRY X'MAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR. May all ur wishes come true for X'Mas!

[sometimes]

To many of my closest friends (or even those not so close) I seem to be a crazy person..someone who is not serious, someone who speaks w/o thinking and some one who is simply full of nonsense.

I annoy people with my nonsense. Well I dun enjoy annoying people, just that I just wanna tell them something. I just need to 'get in touch' with people, people who I consider to be my friends. Well of course some of them are those 'cannot be annoyed' type but there are some who can tolerate..so in the end these people ended up getting pooped.

I was kinda bored in office in the afternoon and unknowingly I pissed 2 persons off. Honestly I dunno my remark in the tag board cld have such an averse effect from the 'fan'. And I dunno one innocent attempt at joking with my friend could pissed him so much. I am sorry I cannot restrain myself and im sorry for making the blood pressure raise for the 2 of u. I shld have known better that u 2 mst have been under great stress due to work (and maybe the weather)

Not everyone is as free as me or as boliao.

I think I shld practise more on the art of talking to myself lest I annoy anyone again.

[Free PC]

Finally lugged the heavy PC back, I applied for half a day of leave just for this redemption. Took the train from Paya Lebar,thanks to a free ride from my colleague who was also on half-day leave,ALL the way to JE. JE Station does bring back some memories of 2003. Ah anyway hailed a cab and got my butt to the place of collection.

Ever since the age of LCDs, who gives a fark abt CRTs? Indeed hardly anyone will wanna lug a 10+KG bulky box all ard. In fact the 17" is heavier than the CPU. Collection was pretty fast tho, less than 10 min and everything was settled! I shld have asked the cab driver to wait for me instead of calling for another cab after the collection. I saw several people after they collected their compac laptops too.

Anyway went home, after settled down I set up the PC. It is not as low end as I thought. It comes with a 80GB HDD instead of a 40GB and it comes with ATI graphics board (some low end one) instead of a integrated Intel graphics chip. The CPU looks quite nice n sturdy. It's not that bad afterall! It is stil a P4 3.0Ghz, albeit it is not the latest performance king Core 2 Duo but it shld provide decent performance like normal office processing, surfing and simple games. The only thing it lacks is the RAM which is a new DDR2 RAM. It comes with a measly 256MB. Well with XP, it's better to have 512MB and above.

It is not a bad machine afterall, moving ard in XP seems pretty effortless.

[X'Mas plan]

yay xmas is less than 2 wks away. What are ur xmas plans my dearesssst readers,friends and 'fan'?

Mine is:
1) sleep until late late
2) eat until fullfull
3) nap until songsong
4) eat until fullfull
5) online until late late (repeat)

I have applied for leave on the 26th as well, hehe...wooohooooooooo...ah yesh, this is life...sounds like Garfield except for the online part. I have sold away my psp for $180! Shld I buy a new mem card for my phone? $60 for 512MB sound not that bad. Mika Nakashima's new album (from Nana2) will be out on the 13th, I shld be ordering that hhehehe. The thing I wanna sell away is my HP PC from MOL recontract. the specs is lousy, P4 3.0Ghz, 256MB RAM, 40GB HDD, DVD-ROM,17"CRT. $400 any takers? RP is said to be $999

For the past 2 days or so, I have been reading articles on Wikipedia about our solar system, our galaxy and universe. it makes me to realise that we are so terribly insignificant. Our galaxy, The Milky Way is immense! And the universe contains countless galaxies! So u can imagine how small how tiny we are. At that moment I also felt that whatever problems we might be facing are also insignificant compared to the vastness of the universe. But sometimes our problems can be overwhelming, how wonderful it wil be if we can simply step behind and look at the problems from another perspective.

Astrology has always fascinated me. The countless stars,galaxies all around us is so intriguing. How stars are formed, how planets are formed, how blackholes come about etc..it is almost studying the creation of a planet, the creation of life itself. If only I cld travel to the stars. Maybe in my dreams.

[lj award @ St James Power Station.]

This yr's Star Awards held at St James is one of the worst ever. I thought St James is some posh club, turned out to be one (IMO), small cramped and rather run down place. I was shocked to see how blardy cramped the place is. The poor artistes were sitting on some kopitiam chairs covered with some cloth with their names on it. And they were sitting almost shoulder to shoulder. The place is honestly rather run down.

Not to say some of the artistes' clothes were like shit. Look at Constance Song Yifei! wah lao wtf was that?? Badly drawn eyelines with awfully long fake eyelashes and some punk not punk jacket n leather boots. Constance is one of the better looking in MC leh, I think she is very much underrated like Priscilla Chan. Is Chen Hanwei the image 'consultant' again? The last he did I think was in 1997, where the artistes were all donning some awfully colored hair strip with hideous makeup and almost were in leather jackets.

Ann Kwok's hair is..........her makeup is also............Fiona Xie is............Anyway I think the best looking female is Peggy Hou. She looked so dainty n sweet n elegant with that little black dress. Xuanxuan also looked not bad. Angie Zhao Ya Zhi looked glamourous for her age. Big winners are Bryan Wong, Chen Wei Lian I guess. I dunno why lj show like Xing Shan Shan can bag the best drama award. Just a lj show with some sweet blind damsel in distress and a guy who cld hardly speak Mandarin. Measures of Men and CID, both are excellent dramas and they got nothing. Another thing is Ivy Lee got the best actress award for her role in Fa ting qiao jia ren...wtf is that? That is another lousy show leh! stupid ending, stupid plot...Somehow I think they are biased. Yes Ivy Lee can act well but her role in that drama is nothing to speak abt. I like Ivy more than Fann but I feel Fann acted much better in Zhi Zhun Hong Yan.

The more hearwarming thing is to see Mavis Hee getting better. And I think there are a few awkard silences when the guests were speaking on stage. Some were really unprepared...

Anyway, this yr's Star Award is disappointing.

[better skin?]

yes im bored so..

I think my skin is getting better thanks to CPs and retin-a,TDF washes and doxy (anti-biotics)

Now is to find movtivation to split the big continent into smaller grounds. hahaaaaaa...

I kinda missed the days when I would spend the nites watching Princess Hours DVDs. OF cos I am still holding on to the discs but there seems to be nothing much to look forward to these days. Recently, it is to check comments in my chatbox to see for new comments but thanks to my 'enthusiasm', that person has left for saner grounds. Still I wanna say, I am sorry.

Life is pretty stark.pretty colorless,tasteless,odourless. It is like a white sheet of paper, only at times stinted grey and black. I hardly go to the movies anymore. Missed tonnes of movies which I swore I wld watch. Friends are busy, if not it will be we cannot find a suitable time for us to meet up. Life now is just work,work work work work work and work. Weekends is at home online,slp,eat,TV.

I do welcome some colors but I am afraid I might neglect them. I am also afraid of losing them. Am I ready for new colors in my life? I dunno. But it seems I am not cos whenever I feel some possibility of new colors, my eagerness to reach to them often make them to shun away further. The more I pursue, the more they run away. I dun deny I enjoy attention. I enjoy to be in the mind of someone, I like people to think of me, to miss me, the more so if they verbally tell me so.

Suddenly I just feel so alone. =/

Maybe I need more fans =P

[suicidal arses]

Recently, there have been a trend of people commiting suicide via the MRT. Ever since one man's family got more than half a million of donations (maybe more than a million now) after his news of jumping into the MRT track with a MRT coming hit the papers and media. People have been following suit.

Last Sat, I experienced how much inconveniences a stupid and selfish cock can cause to the general public. I was supposed to go for my haircut appt. When I reached Semb station, I saw a big grp of people crowding at the Station Control's, without being bothered much I went up only to realise the entire south line was disrupted. The reason, someone jumped in front of a coming train at Admiralty station. There were still trains going south but it wld take abt twice the usual time. wah lao WTF! In the end, I had to change my appt time 2 hours later. My appt was initially scheduled at 2.30pm. I have planned carefully, after my haircut, i wld take 167 home..then I wld buy the uber yummy curry fish head. Thanks to that farker who jumped, my curry fish head plan was thwarted!!! Ok ok this is no big deal anyway. =P

TODAY!!!! FUCKING PCB, same thing happened! Some fucker jumped somewhere from Woodlands---Sembawang line. There's no fucking train from Semb southwards to Marina. The whole train is delayed for 1 bloody hour! In the end, I took the north line all the way up to JE---Clementi and down to Eunos. The train was filled to the brim, thanks to this stupid farker who jumped of all times in the peak morning hour! KNN, can't he jump like in the night or something? Wanna jump jump in the afternoon la, I dun give a phuq if this cause any shit to the ginna students. Wah lan jumped in the morning, that cb knew how many people he wld affect anot? One stupid jump affect the whole nation's economy u know!!! U made people to be late for work, have to rush,blood pressure rise, brain cannot think properly,if make mistake cause company lose big money who pay? KNN!

Also if all the intestines bursted out how? Pls pity the cleaners leh, they prob have no apetite to eat for weeks. Hawkers also affected leh!!!! Pls pity the kway chap hawkers!!!! If brain all squashed out how? Hawkers selling pig innards soup also biz affected leh!!!! wah lao wanna commit suicide pls also do so considerately. Go swallow 10000000 sleeping pills or go smell LGP gas or fill the room with carbon monoxide or hang or what la. Painless death dun wan, want to be run over by wheels and brains and intestines all bursted open for people to see? Bio lessons ar? Forensic lessons ar?

Ok crap aside, for all those who are comtemplating suicide, pls don't. What u will do will affect many people. Treasure ur life and also think of ur family or friends and finally, even if u really wanna end ur life, pls do not affect countless innocent people.

[A few early X'Mas presents for myself this yr =x]

It is unbelievable! I have worked (1st time) for more than a yr! wooohooo! It is an amazing feat. I dunno what kept me going. Ah anyway...last yr I got myself a nice little phone, the Samsung D600. It is a pity that there's a manufacturing fault with the phone, soon I sold it and got myself some other phones like Motorola V3X. I like the slimness,the screen and the speakers but its interface and sms system is really a put off and the cheap plasticky feel of the buttons. W900i was toooo fat, really have no idea why I got it in the 1st place but then w/o it, I wld not be able to call home cos I went to Jpn with this phone. D600 was not a 3G phone and w/o 3G, there's no way I cld call home unless I rent a phone from the airport.

Ok anyway this afternoon I got....myself......a SEK800i! hehehe for $298 I thought it was supposed to be $198 but anyway it was not. Whether it is 299 or 199, it is much much cheaper than $570 RP in shops. The screen is smaller than my Toshiba 904T but because it is smaller, it is sharper. 904T is too fat and huge. I dun like the huge bulge it caused in my jeans pocket. Well mayb one thing is I gained weight, so my jeans are tighter hahahaha..It is a long story for me to get this phone. I went down to Hello!Shop @ Causeway Pt twice. The queue was madness. People were queuing up from the inside of the shop to the outside. I think many were lured by the fantastic deals of some of the mobiles now in the market (SEk800i, W850i etc) I saw many pple taking the white W850i. I think it is not bad but too plasticky. I prefer something more classy, thus the k800i. Additionally, I bought a cheap screen protector for $2.70.

After coming back empty-handed the first time from Causeway Pt, I bought Faith Yang's newest album. It took her 5yrs since her 2001 "Ying Gai" album. Till now, I have not finished listening to all the tracks..in fact I dun even know she has released a new album until I read the papers this morning. Reviews were 4/5 stars. Yes she is good but very underrated. Faith Yang's previous 2 albums, ying gai and silence have accompanied me during one of the darkest period of my life, esp Silence this album..this is also how my nick on some forums came about 'faithsilence'. On Saturday, I ordered Ayumi's latest album from HMV Japan. Shld be arriving sometime this week. I hope I dun have to collect it at SPC again.

A PS3 this yr will be impossible. There are no nice games worth the getting the system too. And the price is madness.

Last night, there was a small 'catfight' in the chatterbox. Honestly, this is the 1st time I experience this.

To Miss Stella, whoever you are,wherever you might be,however you might look like. Thank you for reading my blog. I dunno what make you call yourself my 'fan' but I have to thank you, hopefully in person someday. BTW, what make you call Ve** the evil one? You mean you know my history with her? How long have you been reading my blog? Well I do hope you can add me to your msn, if any. Mine is faithsilence@hotmail.com

To the rest who read my blog, thank you too. You made me feel not as alone as I thought it is.
