unusual talent
they are always showing unusual talents of ppl, like squirting milk from ur eyeballs on shows like ripley’s believe it or not…i juz realised that the people living in boon lay area have a really fantastic unusual talent, here it is:
you know how like when u take the mrt then when it reaches the last station it will either go left or go right?? so usually u won’t know until the track breaks clearly right?? apparently the boon lay people can correctly predict which way the door is going to open, and they will rush to the door even before the track breaks clearly to define where the train is going to stop. isit just me or is there a secret that i havent been taught?? cos if not i really think its fantastic of them to just rush to the door lor, esp when its the opposite door from the one that always opens (which i always like to stand at, so u can imagine my horror when they rush at me).
in other unusual talents, napkin man has returned to he’s unusual routine of jogging! yeap, he has jogged 3 times this week and played soccer once, so that means 4 days of exercising out of 5. u can call and congratulate him now…
easy listening: the silence killing you?? nothing good on local radio?? (since when has there been anything good on local radio??) cd’s getting boring?? check this out: bbc radio one

those who don’t fear death don’t die
this is a quote from some iraqi civillian who’s related to some kid who got killed by some us army bomb. yeah, watched fahrenheit 9/11 today with the guys, actually i sort of borrowed the dvd (cannot name source) but then its so cheong that some of the parts are cut out, so go cinema watch better. remember: piracy is stealing, and stealing is against the law (some stoopid advert before the show started, how apt..)
yeah,in some ways, the quote above really applies to those who really believe in their cause, whether good or bad. bring us back to the times of paul, and we’ll see that he really did all that he did without fear or thought of death. with he’s famous “to live is christ and to die is gain” remains fimrly in our hearts. whether we are able to attain a life that’s so full, is indeed questionable, answerable only by oneself.
not wanting to sound too evangilical or saintly, but the issue i wanna highlight is that : are we doing the things we really want that we forsake others in the process?? are we going about our daily lives without thought for our brothers and sisters beside us and to give thanx for the very lil actions that help us get thru a super shagged day?? well im definitely guilty of that.. so tag me for suggestions

critical situation
i think in this age, we enjoy and take pleasure in seeing ppl being criticised, and going “oh thank god that wasn’t me”. look at the number of shows that involve a panel of judges ala the idol series springing up. its crazy, every ‘talent’ show has that kind of pattern. refer: xxxxx(insert country name here) idol, are you hot?? even singapore’s star search has reverted to that kind of a pattern for the prelims.
and yesterday’s hall dnd was like that too!! goodness, thankfully there wasn’t the one obnoxious judge who gave all the snide comments like simon on american idol, else i guess the freshie’s would have been devasted. yeah, but i mean all the pseudo idol shows all have this one guy who will play the simon role, its just so super irritating, i don’t even think it’s funny, i mean it’s fresh with the first american idol, but i think it gets lame when everybody is doing it, for the sake of doing it.
and what are the judges for?? they only select the ppl to be qualified for the actual compeition, granted, but after that they are just there to give their stoopid 2 cents worth. they should be the one’s judging what!! why leave it to the ppl???!! well in the case of idol, i think they could get away with it since its juz a popularity contest too, but for the rest, i mean seriously.. call yourself a talent show and get the common ppl to vote?? (brian’s point, good point) hmmms oh well its all bout the money lately anyway.

nice feeling gone
its not fair, i set my alarm at 9am, should not give myself so much buffer time to sleep in next time. shite manz, i wanted to wake up at that time, and then slowly get ready to go to sch, maybe drop by the canteen for some breakfast and coffee, and attend lecture at 1030, that’s ideal, and i think it’s a perfect way to start the day. but no, when i next woke up it’s already 1115, and i had already missed the most important lecture anyway (the 2nd one is some i dunno, french, italian?? dude, don’t know what he talking also one, and last lecture is engineers and society, ultimate zhuo bo). so i’ve decided not to go to sch at all. to think i was quite looking forward to sch today, even packed my bags nicely ready. hmmms
ok think i should juz go back and see the doctor, get him to cure my love for sleeping..

those evil natured robots
they’re programmed to destroy us, or rather themeselves. my fridge just committed suicide today, came back and everything was defrosted, the plug’s in, but the fridge has breathe it’s last. probably sometime when im having lessons. sad, i wasn’t even back to say goodbye. now i’ve got to drag its heavy ass down 6 floors to kak-sak it, darn.
and just 3 days ago, my fan killed itself also, but surprisingly, it resurrected today. i switch on and its working again! miracle! maybe it knew i was about to throw it away, then it quickly tried to self heal.
side note: im feeling optimistic at winning the fridge at DnD, no fridge toaster also can!

chinese
was watching the olympic table tennis today. something strange, i could almost swear it was china vs china. but apparently it was aussie vs the kiwis. weird aint it?? and i thought singapore is the only country who gets all these other foreign ppl to play our sports for us. so now all the ang moh countries also follow suit huh?? (usa also got a ching). well it obviously seems to me that a big bunch of prc’s just emigrated to these ang moh places so they can play in the olympics. hmmm comment??

the son your mom wished she didn’t have
well, came home and nobody’s around, ah ma is at my uncle’s, so i assumed my whole family went to visit her and then my bro would have taken the car out while dad and mom probably went somewhere to pak tor. so hungry me decided to call dad to get me some makan. apparently dad is at a neighbour’s place watching soccer, and mom is never a big fan of soccer, so i decided to ask “where’s mom?” and it suddenly hit me that my mom is in china!
well firstly, i only knew that she was going to china like last weekend(she claimed she told me before.. ya rite!) and one week later i forgot again.. haiz.. oh well, just thought how bad i muz be for not even knowing where my mom is.. hmmz
in other news, got my hair dyed, its quite a farnie shade.. but i think still not so bad lar.. my friend had to dye it 3 times because he found it too red and wanted it like brownish tone. it was only the 3rd time he realised that he chose the colour under the red tone and not brown, so the effects are irrevisible till much later.. =P now to get my pink hair extensions.. (ok im deciding between pink or ash grey)

connected
if only life was like an internet connection where u can just disconnect yourself from the world and be a hermit for like say as long as you deem fit huh? no problems for that duration. and when you feel up and ready for what shit the world has in store for you, just dial up and connect.
but even that’s impossible with broadband invading our homes, we’re almost as good as connected 24 hrs. and ppl are leaving the computers 24/7 (download download download). or maybe we could just download what kind of shit we want to bear, that’ll be good too. maybe log on to www.downloadsomeshit.com for our daily dosage of problems.
not to say that life is too sucky, but its just directionless for me now.. just like being online, there’s so much info you just don’t know where to start. hmmm so maybe life is like an internet connection after all.
