This time round. Broke my record again. OT till 3.30am
Anyway, i'll cut the crap. Got a few photos to share.
(Tues) Candid shot from Khai while i was taking a nap after office hour. Darn him, don't know how to take a better photo meh... "@#$%^&*" LoL~!
(Wed) CamWhoring while having lunchbreak.
LOOK!!! You've got panda eye... That's what my Project Engineer told me. -.-" But its not a bad compliment, she said. 'Cause she thanked me for staying up so late to do the project.
Haha~! Thanks for letting me know that i'm being appreciated. (Remember, you owe me a packet of Panda eye patch removal ah~! Hahaha~!! )
Once in a while, you've gotta be told that you're appreciated, so that you'll have a great balance in life ya know?
And also, thanks to my 1wk old cap. It's been a great companion ever since recent OTs.
As all my bad hair days gone, hidden under the cap. LoL~! 'Cause i wasn't been able to wake up extra early to wash my hair.
Ok la... Enough for today le... Gotta get some sleep for the next OT? -.-"
YAHHH~! Thats why i said, i just got back home from OT... -.-"
Well... recently its not the first time for me, nor my colleagues to do till between 1am to 4am, or even burnt our weekends to work.
Even thou there're lots of us not wanting our weekends to be burnt....
But still... We've no choice. We couldn't risk more time already. There're major projects that we'll need to rush on and its still not the worst yet...
MORE MAJOR PROJECTs coming on our way and has just started .
This is why our GM had to stepped in. Asking us to think of wanting to take either "Day or Night shift" permanently for 2mths.
Which means. Day : 830am - 9pm (OT's counted in) Night : 9pm - 830am. (OT's counted in)
As for me... Of cos i'll be taking DAY la.... -.- i got mylife and i need my life back loh.
Well... I'm now currently in a stituation which i do not really know what i'm doing.
As in, why for do so much OT? I've lost my aim a few months back. Loosing a target and an aim. But why still do so much and sleeping very little? It's not as if the time will turn back for me.
What i'm doing now, are all these worthy?
All i know now was, as long as i'm still healthy, alive and kicking, why not? And also, Carrer to a man is very important... At least work hard for now... Save $$$ for the rainy day.
Haha... Seems like i already know the answer to my question already.
Really must thank one of my colleague. He had hit over 200hrs of OT for the last mth... Which means he'll be getting back home an additional $2000+++ excluding his basic.
If not for him telling me. I won't be reminded on how much i've got on my payday a few months back. Thanks to him for bringing my morale back.
But still... At least all my friends out there reading this... tell me if it's worthy or not lo... I just want to hear more suggesstions, but dun complain i no time for you all la. I'll sure find time for you all de ok!
Anyway... I'm helping to look around on if there's anyone who knows how to use AutoCAD 2007 and is still looking for a job currently or looking for a part time job?
If do, pls drop me a tag or you could just email me your particulars and i'll let my HR to handle it.
Okie~! GOOD NIGHT ALL... or... Morning/Afternoon/Evening to all those who read this at a different timing... Haha~!
Recently i bought Linkin Park latest album. "Minutes to Midnight" Out of 12 tracks... i could say 80% of their songs are definately great. And yes!!! They are in my MP3.
Well... this also means that i'd rate 4/5 to their album "Minutes to Midnight"
But i'll just introduce 2 of their songs which i find it quite interesting.
"For Greater Hearings/Feelings, do blast it with your speakers or put on Earpiece"

Lyrics
I dreamed I was missing You were so scared But no one would listen 'Cause no one else cared.
After my dreaming I woke with this fear What am I leaving When I'm done here?
So if you're asking me I want you to know
When my time comes Forget the wrong that I've done Help me leave behind some Reasons to be missed
And don't resent me And when you're feeling empty Keep me in your memory Leave out all the rest, leave out all the rest
Don't be afraid I've taken my beating I've shed but I'm me
I'm strong on the surface Not all the way through I've never been perfect But neither have you
So if you're asking me I want you to know
When my time comes Forget the wrong that I've done Help me leave behind some Reasons to be missed.
Don't resent me And when you're feeling empty Keep me in your memory Leave out all the rest, leave out all the rest.
Forgetting all the hurt inside You've learned to hide so well Pretending someone else can come And save me from myself I can't be who you are (I can't be who you are)
=================================================
Well, i personally quote out a few parts of their lyrics which i find it quite meaningful to share.
"What am I leaving, When I'm done here? So if you're asking me, I want you to know.
When my time comes, Forget the wrong that I've done. Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed and don't resent me.
When you're feeling empty, keep me in your memory and leave out all the rest, leave out all the rest.
Don't be afraid, I've taken my beating, I've shed, but I'm me. I'm strong on the surface, Not all the way through. I've never been perfect But neither have you."
After hearing and learning the lyrics... i then realised that this song actually meant like leaving down a will* to tell your love ones to help leave behind some reasons to miss you, and if they're feeling empty, just keep you in their memory.

Shadow of the day

Lyrics
I close both locks below the window I close both blinds and turn away Sometimes solutions aren't so simple Sometimes goodbye's the only way
And the sun will set for you The sun will set for you And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in grey And the sun will set for you
Pink cards and flowers on your window Your friends all plead for you to stay Sometimes beginnings aren't so simple Sometimes goodbye's the only way
And the sun will set for you The sun will set for you And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in grey And the sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in grey And the sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in grey And the sun will set for you
=================================================
For this "Shadow of the day" i personally find it another way round of the first one i've introduced. Its from this part:
Pink cards and flowers on your window Your friends all plead for you to stay Sometimes beginnings aren't so simple Sometimes goodbye's the only way
And the sun will set for you The sun will set for you And the shadow of the day Will embrace the world in grey And the sun will set for you
Which made me felt as if, you're telling the person who had left us that, friends all had pleaded for you to stay, thou beginnings aren't so simple, but sometimes goodbye's the only way. "The sun will set for you and the shadow of the day will embrace the world in grey(shows to me that you'll always be remembered or missed)"

Extra Bonus from me...
Hands held high
Type: Music. / Status: Good to Go. / Loading Speed: Fast.
=================================================
"Hands held high" is one song which i only find 2 "F" words been read out.
Do check it out.
All the above 3 songs i've introduced... Were songs that i believed most listeners would most likely prefer to "Feel" when the Music flows. It consist of "Rock, Pop, Smooth" Genre feels.
Comparing their latest album with the past, it seems this one's more on the pessimistic side of life, or should i say, more onto the humane side, rather then hating the world...
Last but not least, did you remember to blast your speaker or put on earpiece to hear it?
Trust me, It sounds very different with a normal speaker compared to an Earpiece. (By the way, i'm using an iPod earpiece.)
After listening to all, It sure feels great for me... How about you?
What i've notice was, Changes were seen everywhere.
There are 2 IRs coming up soon, more Condos and new HDBs.
Look around us... you'll definately notice something new.
What i actually wanted to say was.
Everything around us are changing. For better or for worst. We'll never know.
Thats why, we need to make changes too. But, its all up to each individual.
As for me, I'm gonna make changes too. For better or for worst, i'll never know.
But, no matter what, i'll keep on trying. I'll keep on doing my best and will one day progress and improve eventually. So... As to lead a better life, a better future.
To my believes, there're no lousy people, but lazy people.
All the best to my friends. Hope you'll all progress too. ^_^
OMG... This movie i'll rate 4/5 popcorns in every prospect. Story plot, graphic and it's creativity.
All i can say was... It's worth the $ to watch on weekends.
Oh, and... I've seen quite a few changes in P.S. thats why i'd like to share the idea of "Changes". btw, for B.K. Lovers check out the *newly* opened Burger King just beside Action City.
Got to know new friends today... WeiNa, Ruoling and Andre (LoL, Andre sounds like a girl's name. Don't whack me ah. =X haha~!)
You guys were fun to be with. Thanks for being around.
Last but not least, thanks to JunHui for introducing a bunch of fun loving and down to earth friends to me.
Was recently buzying with loads of OTs. Weekend burned coz of OTs too. Haha!!!
Anyway,
Today...
OT as usual. But, while walking towards my engineer desk to put a drawing, i looked back at all the empty seats of my colleagues, and i chance upon a pinned up note.
I remember that, more then a month ago, Evelyn told me to walk over to read this note.
Coz, at that period of time when i'm down, when i don't even need to say a thing. My colleagues all knew something was wrong.
My never ending smiles, my cheerfulness and energy had all gone...
Thats when almost all my colleagues who're close, came approaching me one by one, day by day, asking me the same qns...
"Hey Derrick，你OK吗? 这几天你瘦了很多，会不会是工作还是压力的关系?"
I replied: 是吗?
Colleagues: 你这几天真的瘦的很夸张也很不健康吧，有运动吗?
I said: No. i'm fine, thanks.
I'd never wanted to be pity by anyone. But its because they've been very persistant and kept asking me for more then a month. So, i broke it out to them.
They, showered me concern and asked me to join them for lunch, as i'm always seen eating alone most of the time, locking myself in my little world.
And today, after reading the pinned up note at Eve's Desk.
I remembered asking her to Type it out to me. Coz its not bad.
But to be frank, at that period of time, nothing seems to gets into my mind.
So i pretend to understand and showed greatfulness when she want me to read it.
But after reading it twice today. Words finally gets in.
*Listen, I know it's hard to believe people when they say "i know how you feel..." But i actually know how you feel...
What i'm trying to say is, I understand feeling as small and as insignificant as humanly possible.
And how it can actually ache in places that you didn't know you had inside you.
It doesn't matter how many new haircuts you get or gyms you join Or how many glasses of Chardonnay you drink with your friends.
You still go to bed every night going over every detail and wonder what you did wrong, or how you could have misunderstood.
And how in the hell, for that moment, you could think that you were happy? And sometimes you even convince yourself that she'll see the light and show up at your door. And after all that, however long "all that" may be. You'll go somewhere new. And you'll meet people who make you feel worthwhile again. And little pieces of your soul will finally come back. And all that fuzzy stuff, those years of your life that you wasted will eventually begin to fade.*
Abstracted from the movie "The Holiday"
Thou its abstracted from a movie.
I find it very good. Especially after understanding it now.
Thanks again Evelyn. If you're reading this. ^_^
So i wondered, does any of you understands it too?
Really very greatful to having a bunch of caring colleagues.
Of coz not forgetting my Family and Friends out there. ^_^
BEEN BREAKING DOWN AND BROKEN DOWN INTO PIECES WHICH WILL TAKE ME LIKE DON'T KNOW HOW LONG TO RECOVER.
WHY IS IT SO FUCKED UP, I CAN'T BELIEVE WHY I KEPT DOING THIS TO MYSELF. WHATS WRONG WITH ME?
I'M GOING INSANE IF I KEPT THINKING ABOUT IT.
WHY AM I STILL SO STUBBORN.
WHAT AM I? A NO USE BLOODY HELL? A FREAKING LOUSY PERSON?
I REALLY NEVER KNOW HOW HARD IT COULD BE TO LET GO OF THE PAST. NEVER...
WHY AM I SO CONCERNED STILL? I COULD JUST LEAD MY OWN LIFE. OTHERS GOT THEIR FREEDOM. WHY MUST I CARE SO MUCH ABOUT IT.
BEEN ALWAYS ASKING MYSELF EVERYDAY ON WHAT I REALLY WANTED AND AM I REALLY HAPPY? IS SHE DOING FINE? IS SHE OK? IS SHE HAPPY? WILL SHE BE BULLIED? DOES SHE THINKS OF ME?
Well... basically, i went KBox with JR and his friends.
Its been long since i've last sang.
Me and JR.
JR and friends.
Well... After singing... both JR and i actually said, its kinda really bored, as in no much feel in singing and all agreed... So, we actually said perhaps we'll not be singing till after some time.
On Thursday, after my OT i went to meet up with Ling, as we've since last met each other while i'm serving the country at Marina Bay 2yrs ago.
Hah!!!
She invited me to...
Our Singapore's National Museum
The under part of the DOME inside National Museum.
Soo... What's the big deal? why there? and how come at Night?
all because there's an event at the "Muse Bar"
An event from Louis Vuitton. For peeps who don't know whats "ARENA". Its a Magazine.
Some celebrities turned up. Loads of pictures were taken here and there.
But well, i guess its from the Photographer. Haha~! guess she's gotta do what she's odd to do. Its her job, maybe for the mag or something else.
Anyway... Suprisingly, I was not the only one my friend asked to join her, Ling eventually asked Lydia aka Diya 陈迪雅 to join us too...
Diya and me.
To describe her... I'll say she's very friendly, down to earth person.
Supposingly, Ling and i took lots of photos, but it all turn out very bad.
For Example~!
The only best i could get, other then the close up above. was...
Ling, Diya & me
As mentioned... not so good right. But Ling very smart, she left her name card to the photographer and asked her to contact ling or send email to ling, of our photos. (A Semi-Pro Camera instead of our weak Cam Phone)
So, i guess, i can say that there might or might not be more photos to update!!! hurhur~!
After dinner, we went KBox. LoL~! (2x) Kbox 2days in a row.
But this time round... it all turn up to be very good. Not like the night before, when its kinda bored. Haha~!
Both Ling and Diya sang really well, and also not forgetting Carrie, who last joined us for less then an hour or so. She has a very powerful vocal. Thats no wonder why both Diya and Carrie got into the Women's final in Project Superstar II.(All the best in their carrer)
I can't imagine that this were to happen to me again. The same symtoms and the pain...
I wasn't feeling well for the past few days.
Went to see a doc today, but was told to go hospital for a check up immediately.
He asked if i need an MC or an excuse for my work? I told him, no, as its just an hour more before i knock off from work.
The doc then told me to better go hospital to check up asap. Cos, if its really what we suspect and think it is, it can be fatal.
I was like, "Darn, not again... the same old word told to me by a doc few years back." At that time, my blood test results was shown positive but was told a slight one. So, i've to stay at the observation ward to check if i'll get better or worst.
Guess what happened after a few hrs? i've cheated when the doc asked me, "pain here? there? etc etc..." I said no and no... lol~!
Well... what to do? Last time i'm still immature ma... lol~! But, maybe its because my mom was there, and i do not want to worry her. As i was admitted to the hospital around 3am in the morning, and she haven't had got enough sleep as i've got to be put on wheelchair and needed to be pushed around.
As for today. I'm sorry to myself, coz i didn't go.
It's not that i don't want to go. I'm facing a few problems here... First of all, i do not want to worry my family. Secondly, i wish that someone could be there caring for me, loving me, not pity. Thirdly, i wish to be alone quietly and not letting people know what's going on... Lastly, i'm not in good condition to move about, as it'll hurt.
All in all i'm in dilemma. Perhaps, i'm lost too.
I've even turned down going out with my friends. (If you're to read this, i'm sorry about the last min turning down ya...) After work, i took a rest in the office till it gets better before i think, should i or should i not go hospital.
In the end, i went to watch movie with JR and Jul. Coz, its just a harmless movie.
Its... Rush hour 3
After the whole show, i don't really feel the pain anymore unless i apply force on it la.(which i did try to know it) Amazing ya? LoL~! But i was being ticked off when i told them what happened to me. Coz they say it could be fatal if its real, so dun play play =.="
When i got home, the pain slowly comes back. Luckily the pain were not as intense as in the afternoon ones. or i'll KOed on my bed to subdue the pain already.
Came to think of it... Before knowing her, i'm always sick. After knowing her, i told myself to stay healthy, so i can really take care of her.
Indeed, i'm very healthy even till now...
Was very sad that its all over. Perhaps, things happend for a reason.
Maybe thats why i should be glad that its over. So that, i won't be able to see the person i loved most, looking sad watching me fall ill, or even troubled her to look after me.
It's really a miracle.
Thanks to the almight one above, that i've been very healthy after since knowing her and really thank her to have given me many many sweet memories. Its the most i could ask for now.
Came to think of this... We can't forsee the future. I really wish to stay healthy as i've got lots of things yet done. I may still got lots of chances too...
Perhaps, after i wake up later, and if the pain still persist on or got worst. I'll drop by to the hosp ba... As its just suspecting only, it may not be really that problem right?
Due to the problems my CPU faced recently, it seems like its gonna crash anytime soon.
Without further or do, i decided to get a backup HDD ASAP. Coz, nothing is much more important then the photos i have. As no one can snatch away my memories. Unless if i fall into any mishap. So, if it's down, i think thats it for me.
Hence, i just got myself a 2.5" Notebook HDD today. And of cos, not forgetting the most popular demanded encasing from CoolerMaster.
So, its Black or White? Coz i find them both cool looking.
If its... Black - It'll look dust free but scratches will be easily spotted. White - It'll look dirty easily, but scratches can hardly be seen. *nothing is 101% flawless
So, for a long run, i picked white, as dust can be cleared almost everytime. Lol!
Thanks to Vic, or i could have bought a much more expensive HDD yesterday. As i actually had set my eyes on "FreeAgent Go" from Seagates.
He said : "How much was that HDD you said you want to buy?" Me : "Ehh... $228" Vic : "Siao ah, so expensive. Aiya, you go buy a notebook hdd + ext.casing la" Me : "... okok"
Indeed, i got it almost $50 cheaper, hahaa...
Thank you Vic, for walking around SLS with me to look for the cheapest deal.
This show is one hell of a lame but hilarious show.
I rate it 3.5/5 for the hilarious part and is story.
Its quite a nice chilling out show, but i don't quite recommend anyone to watch it alone, coz its not nice that you'll have no one to talk to about the funny part.
Its been a long time that i've hardly been able to sleep till natural wake.
Just yesterday(sat) and today(sun) i managed to sleep throughtout the whole morning and wake up in the afternoon.
For the past few months, every weekend i've to be in the office sometimes as early as 8am just to rush some project due to its project deadline.
So, ytd and today, i happily happily nua my day and did things that i want and needed to be done.
As for ytd, i was painting my room, then lesson, then back home after dinner with JR and friends to fix my computer table.
How fruitful was it? ITS "VERY" TO ME LOR...
As for today, it was quite happening.
Went to my chief's wedding lunch. Its my first time ever attending a different religion and culture wedding.
The king and queen of the day.
Its their culture that both couple to be treated like a king and queen on their big day.
After that, i went to meet my very first and always be... "BRO" Bannong. He's my best mate, ever since childhood times, and will always be.
Then, back home to start painting THE DOORS of all the rooms, including the main door. -.-" Thats a tedious job okay, took me us hours to do a proper painting lor. Not forgetting that my bro was helping out in both painting our room and the doors. (Damn, i hate oil base paint, would prefer normal wall type water paint lor)
Anyways, here it is, thou can't see much of a difference.
OLD, SKY BLUE.
NEW, BACH.
At least for me, i can still see the color difference when i compared it to the new colour that i've painted on my wall.
Both the colours taken from my camera phone, and seeing it real life, was really very different. I think i should get a new Camera for myself soon, hurhur~!
But for sure, its more refreshing and nice. Even thou both my bro and my arms are feeing very sore. Its worth it.
But, first of all... I reshifted everything and repainted my walls, from sky blue to bach colour.
From the picture, the only changes done, will be, from study desk to computer desk, swaping of computers and 1 bedframe gone. Which means, more spacious.
One funny thing was, the bookshelf makes it looks very messy. Thats why its gonna go.
More coming soon, coz it's still consider as half done, as i'm gonna change my book shelf and wardrobe.
Knowing that i've been sticking with JR almost everyday because of the things that happened to me recently.
I'd decided to spare him and not disturbing him on his off day yesterday... Which means, not even a single sms to him...
As usual, i stayed to do OT yesterday and was planning to do till around 10pm or 12am.
Then, i recieved an SMS frm JR. Guess what? He asked me wanna movie or not? Hahaha~! Was really feeling very down already of coz i'd agree la.
So, we went to AMK Hub for movie.
Along the way to AMK Hub. Got to know His Officer/Friend named Ben. And i realised that his MUCH MORE LAMER then JR. Hahaha~! Can't stop laughing throughout the journey to AMK Hub, even JR's GF also Laught till stomachache.
Most original joke i ever heard.
BEN: "OI JR, GOT COCROACH CLIMB INTO YOUR HAIR"
JR's GF aka Jul: "WHERE?" *Shockingly looked at JR*
JR: "Where got?"
Me: *Laughing*
BEN: "There crawling around your hair la"
Me: *Stops laughing and trying my best to spot the roach on his head*
JR: "Aiyah, normal la... that time even got a fly flew in and got trap lor"
Jul, Ben & Me: *BURST INTO LAUGHTER*
Ben: "There, its there... saw it?" *pointing his finger to JR's head trying his very best to convince everyone*
JR: *Started to kanjiong liao*
Thats where i started to kept laughing non-stop and all of us after fallen into Ben's trap we had a big laugh. I know i'm not good in "Story telling" But if you were there, watching the actions and the way they communicate. I garentee you'll sure ROFL.
Almost forgot, JR almost got us into an accident when he tried to drive with 1 hand and another searching for the roach. LoL...
Last but not least. After we know its a joke, I'll never forget what Ben said.
"OI, JR, 你知道小强在里面拍什么戏吗?" (Do you know what show is it, that the roach is acting?)
We're like "Don't Know." and Ben said: "LOST" That made us burst into even bigger laughters. This time round, Ben almost got us into another car accident. But luckily, The Traffic Light is "RED". HAHAHAHAHAA~!
After we reach AMK Hub, and checked on what show is available. Only 3 of us will be watching the movie, coz Ben watch it before.
Invisible Target.
I think should change its English title into "Invulnerable Enemy" Why? I do not wish to be a spoiler, but for those who've watch the show, you'll know why.
Here's a picture to show you all what's "LOST" lol.... JR's Hair.
Pic of me and JR.
He's the best and closest bro i ever had for now. Other then John and Bannong.
Both he and Jul cared alot for me, knowing that i'm at my most bottom pit, they tried to cheer me up, and also accompany me almost everynight without fail.
Even after telling me that he won't be able to meet up today. He still called to ask me where am i, wanting to ask me out for dinner. As i told him its ok, i'm on a bus heading home already.
I know they're worried that i may do foolish things when i'm alone, thats why they're there for me.
I really felt very blessed to have friends who'd really cared for me when i needed them the most. Yet last time i didn't spare my time for them.
All i can and need to do now was, facing reality and promise them not to do anything foolish.
JR and Jul, Really thanks alot for being there for me so many times.
John and his GF too i'll not forget that day when you both accompanied me chatting at "四马路"
also to Nic, Colleague of JR's lol 1 very happy go lucky friend.
Oh, and i just realised that the pic of me i post above... Really looks very plump.
Guess, what the chinese saying was true. 会发福等于过得很幸福。 Means, when a person is growing fat, it means that he's living a very happy life too.
Picture taken last week. Does it shows that my happiness had left.?
I'm really very confused at times, but what can i do? Everything falls back to reality. It sure falls hard and painfully.
All i need is time, to heal, to grow and to stand strong.
Wishing you all the best leading a better and happier life.
Thank you for being such a wonderful person in my life too. Thank you for letting me be the one you ever loved and care most, and lastly, thank you for letting me loving you.
Lets start leading our life happily in our own ways ya? And all past be sweet memories.
I went shopping alone. Haha! Sounds unbelivable to some? But no... i really did went shopping alone at AMK Hub.
Its nice to shop alone where no one is there telling you off that if its ugly or nice, so, just try out what you feel is nice for you. On top of that, you can just shop on your own pace, Own Time Own Target(OTOT).
I never expect that, this is my first time shopping alone.
What i can just say is that,
ITS A DAMN BAD EXPERIENCE FOR ME!!!
Why?
Its because, while i was walking and browsing the shops starting from basement. I chanced upon a shop, "Natural Project" which they sells only Male's clothings.
So i walked in to take a look. And as usual, the staff will just come approaching you ask you what you're looking for and promote their clothings etc etc... All i did was just plainly smile and ignore them and kept looking for something pleasant looking.
After awhile, i noticed that i'm all alone with 2 female staffs and 1 male staff in that shop.
I picked 1 shirt and wanted to try it. But to my surprise, 1 female staff snatch that shirt from me and took out the hanger and say, "You want to try this? Its new, just arrived." and she quickly pass the shirt to me and show me the way to the changing room.
There's two changing room both doored by Curtain and no lock. So, i went in to change. Once i'm done with that shirt and put back on my shirt. Guess what? That lady staff just pull open my curtain as if she is psychic, knowing that i've done trying.
So, i walked out and told her i want that shirt and get me a new one.
It really feels uneasy with those curtain door. But luckily there's a couple walked in, so i walk to the other side to pick on other shirts.
Out of no where, that lady staff snatch the shirt from my hands again and did the same thing.
But this time round, situation is different, as 1 changing room is occupied with the guy inside changing and his partner awaits just outside the curtain.
So i felt that it'll be quite safe to try on the 2nd shirt.
BUT TO MY SURPRISE.
I just took off my shirt and while putting on the new shirt with 1st button buttoned.
MY CURTAIN WAS PULLED OPEN BY THAT LADY STAFF AGAIN.
She said, "Try this shirt too, it's new and it looks great, then commented to me that the shirt i just put on, "the first button no need to button la" and she just stood there looking at me through the mirror for awhile till i told her, just let me try first can? Then she walked away.
I was like "WHAT THE FUCK, IF SHE'S GONNA PULL OPEN THE CURTAIN 1 MORE TIME, I'M GONNA TICK HER OFF"
After trying on both the shirt and even thou the shirt may or may not look good on me, i walked out and told her "I DON'T WANT. NOT NICE".
I just find that the lady staff is being rude, not just rude, but is very very rude.
What the hell man, i just can't imagine if i'll to be trying out the pants. I also wonder if there's any unlucky guy changing half way, curtain door being pulled opened by her. Luckily i was looking for shirts and not pants. End up i just bought the shirt i initially tried on and a belt, and faster leave that shop.
Since that incident, i don't really have mood to try out other shirts anymore, just walk and take a look before i bought some snacks home for my family.
Lastly, i'll try not to shop alone anymore, haha, perhaps at least 1 friend to accompany.
Really missed the time when i'm out shopping with my deardear, where i'm trying out some cloths and she'll be outside waiting for me. Really felt secured when she's around, felt happy every minute every seconds when she's around.
Anyway's, Today, 18th July.
After work, went to Suntec to wait for JR as we planned to dine out.
While waiting, i went down to "Donut Factory" wanting to try out their donuts. As i heard lots and lots of comments that its getting very famous recently.
Instead of que-ing for "Just the Donuts" (average que timing: 2hrs/person) i qued at the other side, sign post "Cafe or take away with 1 drinks and maximum of 2 donuts".
Within 10-20mins i got what i wanted. Haha, Luckily its fast. Because i'm buying it for myself, instead of the crazy que.
I intially wanted to try the Double chocolate + Lotus Mocha but because Lotus Mocha is sold out, i chose the Kaya white chocolate. (Price: $1.20 per donut.)
After trying both of it. I then realised why their ques are never ending. As it really taste great while its still hot.
But after that, i got a sore throat, as its very sweet to me. Because of its sweetness, i was like thinking, OMG its so fattening, i think i might need to run around the stadium track 4 to 6 rounds just to burn away the amount of sugar and fats that i just took... ROFL~!
Well, i'll recommend donut lovers to try the donuts from Donut Factory as its worth trying out.
But be warned. Not too frequently and not on a long run too.
Alright, as promised. Details and pictures updated.
After my lesson yesterday, i met up with JR & Jul.
Everytime when we met up, he'll ask me "Where you want to go ar? What you want to eat?" But yesterday. He said nothing and just drive. As if he'd already know where i wanted to go and eat.
To my surprise. He drove us to Opposite of Great World City's coffee shop. Where i had lots of memories there when i was still a child.
Haha... Thats so coincident. I had wanted to eat there for a long time. But the last time i've been there. Its alrady revamp and also that the stalls i'm looking for, just blend in which made me thought that it's already gone.
Thanks to my mom, at least now i've got to know where the stalls located at.
When i'm there. The stalls had already close. All i can see was 2 uncle clearing up. But he re-open for me. Coz they recognise me and remembered my mom and dad.
Was very appriciated that they still cook for me to "Take Away" back home and also for me to eat and share it with my friends, while they're surposed to be closed as i was there around 9pm. Moreover, its suppose to be Self-Service but they served me. Very good service to old customers i can say. Haha.
Tada... Juicy Fried Dumplings "锅贴" Their "锅贴，水饺 和 酸辣汤" are all my favorites.
1 Good thing about why their "锅贴，水饺 和 酸辣汤" taste so great. Its because they do not machine it. All manually handmade.
Not forgetting this fruit juice stall too. The aunti also recognise me and asked me about my mom and dad.
It really feels great to be treated so nice when i've yet visited these old stalls for years. I'm really very touched.
Well, at least i've told Jr and Jul that next time when we come here to eat again. I'll let them try out their "水饺 & 酸辣汤" because they've mentioned that the Fried dumpling taste not bad. As the meat taste great and juicy, and no foul meat smell at all. Which some of us may smell that on other stalls outside.
Thanks JR and Jul so much. You guys have brought back my childhood memories. ^^
As for today morning.
This is where my dad and i went. TOA PAYOH STADIUM.
But why were we here? As i've mentioned last night. To accomplish something very very important. We're here to do volunteering charity work.
Me and 江坚文.
叶丽梅 and me.
For those who do not know who they are. They're DJ 江坚文 & DJ 叶丽梅 from Radio 1003. If its not for the station, that i'm tunning in almost daily without fail. I could not have known about the charity work going on today.
What i heard on air was. Every round a participants made, an organization will donate $5 to support the disability sports in Singapore.
Since i'm physically fit, i just do what i can to help coz i know. There're lots of disabled out there who wish they could lead a normal life like us with sports.
When my dad and i first reached there, we did some warm up by walking 2 rounds before we start to jog and run. Haha, i can still recall that we've lost one another and my dad did not bring his handphone. So i kept jogging, to look for my dad. But i could not find him. He's the one who caught up behind me telling me 1 last round before we leave as he still got a customer to meet later on.
Our one last round, i took a photo of my dad from behind.
1 rubber band = 1 round, "Left is mine Right was my dad's" Total up of 29 bands.
Amazingly, in 1 hour timing we gave ourselves. My dad could still do 14 rounds in his 50s but as for me sadly, i did only 15 rounds. This shows that my dad is still very healthy and strong. Haha, way to go dad.
All the bunch of rubber bands with the stickers on will need to be exchanged to this Certificate of Participation.
It sure feels great after doing some volunteering work, especially after working out.
Morning went to register for Class 3A school practical lessons. After that went to eat something that i've really miss eating alot. "鱼片米粉汤。"(Slice Fish Bee Hoon)
Its located at "TechLink" Building. Those who know where it is. Just Give it a try. You'll never know if its gonna be the next big thing in your life ya? Hurhur...
Right after that, I went to my friend's school for my 1st lesson and guess what... I thought my lessons was at 3PM.
BUT HELL NO!!! It starts at 6PM. If i knew it was that late. I could have re-planned my schedule and go to Driving School earlier on to settle my things first, then to office for OTs. -.-"
Best thing of all... Lesson was a very very fullfilling one la. Haha.
Thanks to JR. If its not for his decision, i believe i'll not be able to see and "EAT & DRINK" back what the "Childhood Memories" left for me.
"P.S. - Pics and detail will be updated soon"
As i've gotta sleep now. Sooooo very drained today. Haha. Morning later still got something very very important to accomplish and then back to Office for OT. so i need some good rest lo.
Well, there're lots of downs recently. But last week was quite an interesting one. Lets drop the bad ones and look on the bright ones ya?
This year i'm gonna do more and listen more. As i recently starting to like hearing more than being like before.(talk alot)
I've thought about it for more then 5 times. Finally decided to carry on with what i've wanted.
After telling my mom on what i wanted to buy, she made a contact with an uncle whom we knew when i was still a child.
Went down to his place, catch up a little and got what i wanted before back in office to OT.
Yup, my first ever Guitar. Initially was about to get it when i'm still in my Secondary school days. But it took me so long to finally settle down by getting it myself.
That uncle told me he'll introduce me a teacher. So i called him up today and asked about it. He said he knew a fren who's teaching in Bishan J8 but didn't have his contact no. So, i wanted to go down to check out the classes. But wasn't able to do so. At least i manage to get the contact to the school from my friend.
Anyways, Saturday 07/07/07. Its a very happening day. "Live Earth" Live Concert world wide and lots of Weddings going on too.
For me, i did some catch up with my bro. While walking towards Suntec. This is what i saw...
Road Block
WHY?
NDP "THE MARCH" Rehearsal. Look at how grand it is? Road block just for them. LoL!
On Sunday 08/07/07.
We've got a new member joined our family.
Hurhur... PUPPY "Cookie" and Its a he. Very shy and scared when he first sees me. Maybe he thinks that he's small and tiny and i'm a giant to him. Haha.
Knowing my mom plans to get a dog. My sister was the one who bought little "cookie" into our family. She's rich man... -.-"
Well, back to today. Finally my work was lessen. Most of us gets to go home early today. As for me, Knowing tat JR today was having off. We met up for dinner and went home.
Got to really get back home Early today. Guess its very rare for me to get home early ever since quite sometime back.
Guess what happen when i'm home and after settling down?
Nottie Cookie wrestled me.
GrRroar...
After some time battling, he got tired.
Really really tired and he.... zZzZzz.
My sister took a picture of him sleeping soundly, not knowing that the flash woke him up. LoL!
And guess what?
Aftermath when u wrestle with claws and jaws. Haha!
Chances are given by oneself. It's not wrong to ask others for chances. But action must be made to prove oneself that he/she can do it. Others will then be convinced.
After falling so hard and got myself hurt. I then realise that i was a person who speaks louder then action. Not that i don't do it. It's that i didn't prove myself well enough, as i only take my own sweet time doing things my own way.
For the past few weeks, i've been doing some soul searching.
At least for now, I'm glad that i've got to learn and understand more about myself, about my mistakes that causes unhappiness in others, and also the pain i inflicted on my loved ones.
Been very very busy with OTs. Workload had been stacking up, But its going to be unloaded soon.
Lots of things came acrossed my mind. Own personal probs + never ending work loads = Moody + Stress.
For me, work is work. Personal prob is personal prob. Not that i cannot control my stress. Its just that sometimes emotion can't be controlled.
Meet out with my bros. Need to be heard, need attention and needed most importantly, their advices and accompany.
Been walking alot lately. Looking at my past. Looking at what i've done. Looking at how it could be solved or saved.
But, its neither easy nor hard. Its just like, you need 2 hands to clap. What if 1 of the hand's got injured/tired and needed to rest?
This, is what i've been telling myself. 1 hand is injured/tired, it needs to rest and not causing more stress on it. So, just let it rest.
Recent walks had brought me to another world. Its filled up with pictures from my past. Even before or after sleep. Its even harder for me to get to sleep early now a days.
Infact, i'm having nightmares everyday without fail, even when i'm taking small nap during lunchbreak.
Why nightmares? Some were suppose to be sweetdreams, but when i woke up, its another story. I do not know how to explain but thats how i feel.
