last day

i’ve finally come to the end of my exchange stint here in toronto. funny how you’ve missed home all these times and when its really time to go back, a certain part of you feels sad to leave. i’d definitely miss the times spent here, the cold weather , the kam ja dang (korean pork bone soup), the hanging out together with your apartment mates. but i guess it’s just another chapter of my life, and it has come to a close. i guess all that’s left to do now is to look forward to resuming the life that i have left back in singapore.

aniwei the nyc trip was great fun! was really good to see hua hui and kai after so long. plus i manage to catch my first broadway musical.. in broadway itself! wheee!! yeah we watched chicago, it was really good, definitely better than the movie (ok that was a dumb statement).

im now packing my stuff to return home, freaking alot of things lar! shud haf thought it thru before i bought all the stuffs… grr… alrites that’s all for now, the nxt time i post will be back in sunny (AHHH!!!) singapore..

so in closing, i shall say, goodbye toronto , hello singapore!

stop and go

back from the mighty slopes of mt tremblant!! i have finally learnt the art of carving (heeling and toeing) the slopes!! muahahaha.. at least i didn’t waste my time there.. yupps, reached back about 1230am to find a barrage of ppl in our apartment, and there are still quite a number of ppl left (that’s what happen at year end when an apartment is convenient to host friends who are homeless or do not wanna spend money on accom).. i haven’t slept since 8am in the morning (time now is 0630) and im feeling damn high from lack of sleep.. anyway will be leaving for NYC (again?!!) in 2 hrs, sooo yeah just thought i’d drop a little update here..

meanwhile, i juz realised indie boy posted twice on my behalf, this realisation came after i visited my own blog 3 times, i didn’t really bothered cos i thought those post were my old post.. hmmm thanx indie boy for keeping this space alive.. could sure use some help for the nxt couple of days too..

i’ll be back in 5 days.. chill the beer cos napkin man is coming home

when wonderful things pass us by
i’m sorry i was not able to fill napkin man’s space with the wonderful things i said i would fill it up with. you see, indie boy has had to grapple foot and limb with the giganorama octopus of emo-death and has survived with minor burns, bruises and cuts. save for some demented thinking, indie boy is busy preparing the next wave of attacks despite napkin man’s challenge with the overhuge-astic white mountains of doomsday devices.. outrageous as it may seem, napkin man the stubongz will best the balrog of white mountain and come back as the white napkin.

NAPKIN MAN, POWER UP !!!1

everybody’s favourite superhero
oh kay, vote now, napkin man or indie boy? anyhow, since our the saviour of society has gone off to snowboard (how convenient), i will attempt to fill this space will daily nonsense. much like how everyday has been for those of you who seek refuge in the safe warm but robust rays of napkin man’s napkin blasts.

anyhow.. let us all hope that the slopes don’t best our one and only chance against social retardedness..

angels or devils

this is the last time
that I’m ever gonna come here tonight
this is the last time - I will fall
into a place that fails us all - inside

I can see the pain in you
I can see the love in you
but fighting all the demons will take time
it will take time

the angels they burn inside for us
are we ever
are we ever gonna learn to fly
the devils they burn inside of us
are we ever gonna come back down
come around
I’m always gonna worry about the things that could make us cold

this is the last time
that I’m ever gonna give in tonight
are there angels or devils crawling here?
I just want to know what blurs and what is clear - to see

still I can see the pain in you
and I can see the love in you
and fighting all the demons will take time
it will take time

the angels they burn inside for us
are we ever
are we ever gonna learn to fly
the devils they burn inside of us
are we ever gonna come back down - come around
I’m always gonna worry about the things that could break us

if I was to give in - give it up
- and then
take a breath - make it deep
cause it might be the last one you get
be the last one
that could make us cold
you know that they could make us cold
I’m always gonna worry about the things that could make us cold

naps: thanks jj for the recommendation!

wheres has all the holidays gone??

the buzzword around students nowadays is internship. for as long as i know, internships were done only becoz it was part of the curriculum. then there were those who did it because it wasn’t part of the curriculum, and they fear they might miss out on an edge, which is fine ,cos this only nullifies everybody else’s internship stint (level playing field) .. then came the pioneer batch of ppl who decided to spoil market and decided to do extra internship stints so that they can up their resume. and becoz of that pioneer batch of ppl, now everybody’s doing extra internships as if its the norm. and hence put poor ppl like me at a disadvantage.

my personal philosophy has been and always will be: you’ve got your whole life ahead to slog and work, why you wanna go use up your holidays??!! esp for us uni ppl, its the last ever we will ever have a long long break at a go… i say pack up, and travel see as much as the world as possible. easy to say huh? of cos need money rite?!! soo work for the money lar (part time jobs, sell backside, whatever!) internships usually don’t pay much and require alot of your time.. soo haiz.

at this point you should realise ppl like me don’t go far in life.. my future’s probably a 3 room hdb flat with 2 kids, and we struggle to make ends meet.. and prolly cursing myself over why i din invest my time properly when i was younger… well.. *shrugs* at least im enjoying my bum life while i can… n hopefully find something ‘worthwhile’ to do meanwhile.. like err play dota or something.. yeah enrichment..

yeah this post is not to encourage or discourage ppl to take up internships .. as long as you’ve got a plan… that’s already alot of respect ya gonna get from me.. just thought i’d offer another view into this thing we call life… meanwhile i’ll just look forward to my internship stint (curriculum ahh..don’t point finger) at dsta.. yeah looking forward to being work like a dog with a measley pay… just hope they don’t make me wear my number 4 uniform to work everyday manz…

kz.. enuff ramblings.. ppl doing extra internships, just remember your old fren here when you make it big kz?? just buy me a beer everyday i’ll be happy le!!
