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?

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

dinner?

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

some random harbor

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

my favourite picture of the night

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

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

Sunday, June 04, 2006

ahhh work never fails to make me irritated

just last week we brought too little stuff for a big show

this time we brought too much stuff for a small show

long long hours, contrary to what he told me last weel...

finished at 12?

decided it was kinda late, got a lift back on the company lorry

missed out on shuhui's bdae, so.. yea...

some mass munching on ruffles

sleep? probably, will go wardrobe hunting tomorrow again, i guess

bored stuff, start of vacations!

and i'll be starting work at my cus' place after national day

since i'll most prob be doing ihp

alvron's asking me to go there n work attachment, but well...

though i am interested in the job scope, but the appeal of wine is alot more, lol

Friday, June 02, 2006

as i mentioned, things always seem to go wrong somehow or another, lol

went down to suntec with andre n steph, found levis! and they had the 501 jeans i've been wanting!

and damn they didnt have my size, only 27 or 30

which is either too small or too big

damn, so i settled for a pair of red tab

got a new wallet, walked into in-base

saw a pair of real interesting pants

and god damn didn't have my size again

the world is bias against people like me who have small arse

shall head down to their other outlets to hunt down that pants

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
