ahh its a sad night for soccer
brazil ghana 3-0
spain france 1-3
ghana certainly did enough to warrant a much better result, despite brazil's favourites tag
spain? 60% possesion, 200 more passes?
well though it has come as common knowledge that the better team dont always win
sad as it is, but world cup's once every four years
and spain will definitely be there 4 years later
maybe then will lady luck smile on them for once

hahahaha i thinking i'm getting addicted to roman stuff
i'm obessesed with latin, such that my blog is saturated with it
i'm a fan of roman gods, as seen in nicks i've used, i.e aion
i have a sudden temptation to tattoo a series of latin numerics on my back
XXVII.VII.MCMLXXVII
and i'm listening to latin singers!
edit: i just noticed i translated the numerics wrongly about 5s after i posted this, heng i haven visited the tattoo artist or i'm gonna end up like poor beckham with a spelling error!

ahh the end of my short work stint and back to school it seems...
so much to be done and yet so little time
if you think its right
i shall be your lance and your shield
i shall pierce all who stands in your way
and protect you from all who would seek to harm you
and yet, for whom shall my lance be weilded for, and whom shall my shield protect?

ahhh 2nd week of work and grapes suddenly mean much more than just seedless, red, white and random stuff u ask when buying grapes
but who needs to know about clients who come in holding wades of cash and purchasing 100+ bottles of wine that cost like 2~3k a pop
somehow or another, i've been getting injuries on my left side of the body too
my left arm been aching every now and then
recently? twisted my left ankle while sleeping
so i'm limping now
i'm so gonna be a left handicapped person in my old age

some sian... no news about my IHP yet, even though the things been some time
the last thing i need is to get some crappy project
even though the 1 i selected isnt exactly anything amazing
recently i've been thinking about my career options
i might have interest in design, in promotional/advertising
but my designs arent exactly that amazing
in fact i rarely came up with anything i could impress myself with
working at wine culture?
seems like a safe option
its... repetitive
pretty much the opposite of designing
just recommend wine, cash orders and do retail stuff
even though i havent been able to recommend just yet
after all this is a world where interest doesnt feed anyone
years of education to the drain?
while i used to be one of those naive, foolish people who thought one could always achieve one's dream
or that everything was actually possible in this world
i guess things over the years proved otherwise?

ahhh eventful weekend to say the least
met up with people i havent seen in 7 years
got soaked in sentosa, alas not by the sea
took a drive past my old school area and town
stopped at some random coffeeshop for a quick snack
and finally to changi airport for random roaming
topped the day off watching england vs paraguay
and a slight fever and flu synoptems
monday! 1st day of work
obviously my uncle tricked me, i reached at 10 when the place opens at 11
feeling more feverish, but hung on
learnt basic wine recognition, spent the day reading books on wine
got off early due to obvious signs of illness
not after wine tasting of 2 reds and 2 whites
reached home, jumped immediately into bed
took my own temperature? 39.8
woke up at 2.33 to discover my fever subsided
today!
feeling alot much better, went to work, on time now
tried to learn where the 1001 bottles of wine were stored
spent the later part playing catagory games with the coworkers
try naming
1.the types of red grapes
2.the types of white grapes
3.the number of italian restuarant in singapore (fast food such as pastamania is not counted)

ahh... sleeping in has become somewhat of a habit nowadays...
for one, i woke at 6.30pm, or 1830...
only point of noting is the class outing yesterday?
though i found it a tad too formal... feels like some school excursion
dinner at crystal jade, usual stuff?
went for hiagen diaz ice cream, where we called in on kenneth
some genius, i forgot who asked for discount, a question his young n rather hot manager didnt seem to take lightly of
rum & raisen + macadamia nuts means i'm 6.90 poorer
some random trips to see planes landing/taking off
n random trips to changi/geylang
reason why i catagorised the 2 places together is pretty obvious i guess
some random conversation exchanged in the car is no thanks
some random sexual harrassment to a certain person is no thanks too, i guess, lol
pictures?
dinner?
some random harbor
my favourite picture of the night
last but not least, my pathetic attempt at taking a picture of the moon
stars highlight none but the harsh truth that some things are truly out of reach to the human hands
oceans are the epitome of hypocrisy, for her unparrelled beauty hides a malice no man can hope to survive

'its a golden oppurtunity!' 'ur future depends on this!'
god damn it all
go bootlick the rich on your own if you want to
dun freaking bring me down to your standards
if i cant survive on my own capabilities, i'd gladly starve to death
for this is what i'm worth
rather than spend my whole life living off rich relatives
spending days like a dog
respect is not give because of ur status as parents
its is earned through virtue and merit
two things i have never seen from the day i was born
and words outta your mouths now have turned this lack of respect into contempt and detest
to hell with this world

ahhh! i can't stand the sight of electrical stuff
spent the whole of last night doing the bloody UED, in which my trusty program hanged on me thrice.
note: not ONCE, not TWICE, THRICE!
not to mention some random stuff throughout the day only serves to piss me off
best part? other than the usual stuff
our unusually pleasant lecturer suddenly postponed the presentation by three weeks
note: not ONE, not TWO, THREE!
some long chat too
afterwhich there was a horrendous ride to beach road
horrendous in more ways than one
went to bugis, attempted to hunt for my ip zone pants and guess what
NO SIZE AGAIN!
bloody hell, its a asian country, so for god's sake bring in more small sizes!
shall continue my hunt soon, in the midtime, start on my AVFE, do more flash
basically get on with my boring life

things always seem to go wrong for me nowadays
for example, i woke up at 12 (i decided to skip AA, considering i cleaned my freaking house last night for certain reasons, till like 3am)
and my ecad quiz starts at 12 too
so i ended up taking a cab to school
thankfully the i got a cab driver who had both skill and a winning mentality
driving at an average of 85km/h, and bare minimum pedal errors
such was his driving skills i reached school in 10mins, and i nearly fell asleep despite my rush
headed down to suntec for the pc shop with the guys, even though i wasn't half interested in it
walked around, and scouted out my intended targets for my wardrobe
will go down and collect them tomorrow, after WISP
alone, kinda sad, but well, friends has never been in abundance for me
looked through a personality test report i did some time back
You have many friends, but you only trust a few of these people when it really counts. Opening yourself up to more of your friends will help you create more strong and meaningful relationships.
haha, looking back, i have never really trusted anyone, be it group members or friends
and fact be proven, this theory worked for me, considering i've already had experience of trust betrayed in the last 2 years
trust is probably a luxury i wont ever learn to enjoy
