Back Home

Going home made me realise a couple of things:

1) Wireless in Msia sucks to the core.
2) Mum and popo’s cooking is still the best.
3) I miss my family a lot.
4) Grandfather’s health is deteriorating (and we’re still pretending nothing’s wrong)
5) Things in Singapore are so goddamn ex.
6) The chinese noodle stall in town still rocks my socks off.

And I can drink (not alot la) and drive at 120 mps along n the empty streets of Perling without having to worry about running into the cops.
Well,  point is the long-awaited holidays have finally arrived, though it doesn’t feel like I’m having holiday coz I’m still cooped up in NUS with a gazillion things to do and I have to start workin to earn my pocket money +.+

Sigh.
How I wish we could just eat eat eat and not worry bout anything.
Anyway,  it was aipok and David’s birthday over the weekend and I was obliged to make the trip home after numerous threats from Eric to kick me out of the brotherhood if I didn’t show up.

I’m glad I went back. It reminded me of the good old times.
Form 6 was a time where my strongest friendships were forged and albeit studying in different places the five of us are still as close as ever, though I always had to pangseh them for drinks due to the distance.

I can’t imagine form 6 life without my buddies, it would have been hell.
And the funny thing bout form 6 is, losers will always remain as losers, and people who own will always own.
I was looking at a couple of other ex-classmates and listening to the stuff they said when it suddenly dawned on me: Fuck, when will they ever grow up?

Time to go, meeting Cheow for dinner. Ciow =)

Bitches Together

After 76435 times of cancelling and rescheduling,
I finally found time to catch up with my form 6 bitches Eric and TC.

Come to think about it, we were how tight back then, haha
Miss em lot,  my buddies.

KL? Shanghai?

geez I think my bio clock’s gone a little nutsy.
I get so exhausted in the day and god-knows-why so effeverscent at night.
Think I need to see a shrink?

I guess the whole everybody’s-going-but-me issue is the reason for my insomnia.
It just feels so horrid that you’re the only one left out in the expedition.
The guys in school are planning a trip to KL after the exams and i had to pull out.

Its just SO frustrating.
For one, you know that this may be the last chance you get to party with your friends before the big graduation day but on the other hand,
you’ll have to succumb to the fact that the trip is too close to your flight to Shanghai. 

Shanghai’s a big thing for me, but so are my friends.
And I wanna go see Winson.
Aipok was so kind to suggest a 2nd trip after I return from China but har-har, we all know that’s kinda impossible. 
And I don’t expect them to splurge the 2nd time just to accommodate me.

Teck Choon and Eric kept taunting me to change my mind but helloo, it’s not my mind that needs brain-washing,
it’s mumsey’s and daddy’s.
They’re so worried that it’ll affect our flight to Shanghai,
should any mishap befall me in KL.

Gawd that’s so old-fashioned.
But seriously who could blame them,
the buses in M’sia aren’t actually safe,
To say they’re “safe” is even an overstatement.
I’d be grateful if it doesn’t go tumbling into a ravine.

Choy… touch wood touch wood.
I may not be going but my friends are.
Let’s just hope dad’ll change his mind okay?

Prom

The title says it all.
Albeit not the best private party I’ve ever been to,
I’ve definitely had a ball of a time.
Kudos to the juniors for such a great event =]

Enough said, pictures please.

What’s prom without the Prom King and Queen.

Wangloong could sweep any girl off his feet if he keeps smiling that way and Carose is to die for.

But of course Nickeo would never let them have the limelight all to themselves, would he? =]

The Birthday Bash and Boobs

I don’t know if anybody has bothered reading “Love In A Colder Climate”  by JG Ballard,
for me, it’s a must-read-or-I’d-rather-die sorta thing.
I wanted to share it cuz it’s a totally haunting story, and it makes you wonder if it’s inevitable that someday,
human beings will be forced to have sex.     
Anyway part 3 and 4 should be coming up soon, stay tuned if you’re interested.
All I can say is that the ending’s a tragic one.

I was over at Yvonne’s place yesterday,
helping her mum fix her internet connection whilst waiting for Kavin to come home.
Aunty Jennifer just popped the question all of a sudden,

“Did Yvonne stay in touch with you?”

Gulps.

“No”, I croaked.  

Then, it was complete silence.
How ironic it is, that I have no idea whatsoever about how my childhood playmate is doing.
She just went to KL and *poof*, disappeared.

I don’t suppose she ever reads my blog but hey yvonne,
if you’re ever reading this,
YOUR MUM ASKED WHY YOU NEVER CONTACT ME AR.

Anyway Wednesday was Wenshiow’s birthday bash (finally),
and I haven’t had so much fun in a long time.

Sorry pictures are scarce cuz I was busy barbecuing the whole time and when I wasn’t battling flame and smoke I was busy hogging the microphone.

   

Curious thing I’ve noticed though,
at parties there are always those who are uuber high (and she sings darn good).

           

and those who thought the party was a funeral they had forgotten to attend.

               

How very peculiar eh?  

And I know someone snapped a video of me dancing to Jolin’s music that night.
Please send a copy to me if you’ve got the conscience =]

For the love of God, I swear I didn’t know that you could find my blog through this:

                       

Lets Pray

It’s just terrible if your sister gets admitted into hospital a day before your birthday bash,
imagine the shock!

The catastrophe has befallen on a classmate of mine, Wenshiow.
Just as we were fully anticipating a ball of a time at her place (oh I just LOVE barbeques),
she cancelled the whole event coz her sister is still currently in critical danger.

Okay we weren’t always on good terms but I still think we should all pray for her sister.
Albeit sounding as calm as ever on the phone I reckon she was bawling her eyes out over this.
According to her, the fever has almost “incinerated” the poor girl’s internal organs. 
Well, let’s just pray she’ll be out of ICU and danger in no time all right?

Memo to myself:
Never practise dancing again in the bedroom coz it ain’t freakin big enough.

Damn my albow still hurts from slamming againts the bed post while trying a ‘lunge’ movement

*

The guys still can’t make up their minds on when to play badminton. No transport, got tuition, blah blah blah all the usual excuses.
It’s been postponed so many times I don’t think we’re ever gonna come to a decision, LOL.
Well, for the interim I think it’s best to continue my jogging routine with Marcus every evening, just hope it doesn’t rain.
Oh wait, Marcus’s goin back to Kuantan this weekend, shit.

My Leen Leen a.k.a suicidal a.k.a ChunLi from Street Fighter is coming back from Singapore on Friday but I still can’t decide whether to meet him.
Got physics tuition with LCC till 2.30 p.m then gotta go pick Wenshiow’s birthday present with Ai pok after that.
I don’t think I can squeeze any time outta that.

*

Got a lunch date with Anita and niece Jess on Wednesday,
have to skip maths tuition coz of this ler,
now I gotta find time to replace it, sheeze…

*

Study group with Park Soon and the gang has been re-scheduled to Tuesday afternoon (i.e tmr) in the school library coz according to them there got air-cond mah, my dining room doesn’t have ler.

God Nick you still have not completed the work you guys are supposed to be discussing tmr. So get your ass back to work and SHUT UP!

No, you shut up!

Me? why you shut up!

Okay we’ll both shut up!!

Given up

I haven’t been this hurt in a long time.

我总认为承诺直千金，除非是紧要关头，绝对不轻易违背一个承诺。我错了。显然自己所认为得并不能加筑在别人身上。

Yes, I was more than disappointed when they cancelled the game last minute, I was hurt.
I thought we had a deal, I thought wrong.

I’ve had the runs and had emptied my bowels like nobody’s business the night before,
my tummy upset and I threw up all my dinner.
I was as sick as hell.
But I’ve promised them to play badminton today,
so I had to fulfil that promise and I went to school.

I was more than surprised when I heard that Eric had pulled out suddenly, without even bothering to tell me. I was mad and very disappointed to find how someone could just make a promise so lightly.

Imagine my horror when the others just decided they would be performing a good cause by donating blood on the very same day,
to just cancel the whole thing a few hours before our game.

Yes, we ended up in a row in the end.
With them shouting madly at my face. I gave up.

Have you any idea how difficult it was for me to persuade mum and dad to let me take a breather with the exam so close around the corner?

你问我不爽什么？你期望我爽吗？ 你认为我该有怎么样的反应？无所谓吗？

So this are how friends are like.
To forsake you, misunderstood and fooled.
I ignored my illness to live up to my promise, and so this is what I get in return.

去捐血吧，你们最伟大，我最小气。是啊，打球而已嘛，什么时候都可以，捐血却是唯一一次的机会。你们是对的，我是错的。朋友不过也这样而已，没什么大不了的。

我每一次都告诉自己不要再当个小丑，但每一次还是被当成傻瓜一样耍得团团转。我累了，就让这次成为最后一次吧。

Suddenly I feel so cold. When you need someone to talk to, there doesn’t seem to be any.
You thought they were your friends and buddies, why, how foolish of you!
