Closer

the movie "closer" is damn good.

Fast paced, good script, visually good looking leads. The emotions were raw, intense and real. I guess there is never real good reasons why people stray, no good reasons why and when u can stop loving someone in an instant, no good reasons why people do the stupidest things in the world.

Being matchmake by a cab? Well almost...

ts amazing. the roads are absolutely clear this morning!!! No serious. No jams, no honks. Fantastic! Cab driver said i was lucky, but i suspect it has more to do with the Jedi knights last nite….

didnt have a chance to doze off on the ride. chatty driver but i was fine. wasnt that tired anycase. certainly has been a long while since i chat with anyone with proficient mandarin. Its almost like conversing with my old mandarin teacher back in school, so nostalgic. No one speaks proper mandarin anymore these days…*guilty*

As with many cab drivers, no uncle, u thot wrong. i’m not heading to airport for work. And no uncle, neither did i graduated from overseas. I never figured out why the questions. Alamak, thot i’m pretty sgporean what! I can spew singlish anytime i want okie! Just a matter of time and place for it. heh:)

Anycase, by end of the triip, i now know my dear cab driver has 3 sons from the same uni as i did. The eldest is a fighter pilot, the second with NOL, a rising star now holidaying in states, and the youngest son in UK doing his degree. yes yes, they are all single. No no, i’m really not interested in them… as i politely declined his goood fatherly intentions…

As my boss just tried to peek over my laptop while i was furiously typing away, i shielded my screen and yelped "PAY PER VIEW!" Silly fool challenged me with his concealed hairy legs… bet he hasnt come across wax strip in his life…Luckily for him, phone rang to save the day.

Heh heh… wait he just wait.. Hoo Hoo.. he will soooo pay for it. Am sure allen wont mind my few nice sabos on her new hubby..haaa haa. Plus its pay back for all the horrid coffee stench he has been intoxicating my lungs and polluting my nice cubi with despite my severe notices… Hmmmpf >:( 

Old Bat

Thursday, May 19th, 2005

think my thick pouty lips is having an effect on my slurring speech or Stan must be getting deaf and blind!!!!
asked him how he wannna celebrate his old and thirty, and he went huh,old and dirty?! Old Bat!! *haa haa*
wanted to screeched in laughter but i think 10’s abit early to share my chirpiness with my neighbor boss and director at the end of the corridor. Plus i havent had my sandwich yet, not to guitly mention that I still owe them 3 policies documentation…but its soooo dry..sigh.. *defeated*

anycase, asked stan if he wanted a chill out session or a hot and steammy BBQ with butterfly and Jazzy.. and like all men would say, "pluuuzzz, he rather have hot and steamy something else". Hot and Steamy BUNS of a fist more likely!! Sensing my possible "frosty hands of death" reaching over the cyberway, smartly he conceded chilling out is cool by him and drinks on him. *as i cracked my knuckles* heh. Just when i was being "appeased" and telling him i’ll firm up again for next sat, that terrible cheeky boy has the balls…
"haa haa. firm up smething? Nip tuck?"

I’m soooo gonna skin U next week!!!

Water feature is never a cool idea around drinkers...

Thursday, May 19th, 2005

thank goodness heaven was kind to me, the thunderstorm stopped in the nick of time for my drinking session! yahhhhhooooo:)


running late! tooo absorb in messaging abt "ugly" singaporeans on the road and sharing of "road experiences" of coz… its terrible our people…. too much too much bad experiences. gotto be another post..
anycase, its 6.45pm and as i was grabbing my brolly to leave, my boss turned ard and mumbled.. "leaving so early already". Now, i considered my options. Shld i stab him to death with the point of my brolly, or beat him to a pulp? Hmmm… neither seeemed worthwhile to hold me back from meeting the guys @7. He’ll so get it from me tmw. hheh.


reach town slightly late and AS usual, the guys were late again. Bill’s still stuck at work. Didnt have Oli’s number. Hmmpf. Decide to walk ard the mall aimlessly than sit by myself amongst the shirt & ties. Didnt feel very sociable today. Finally , 30mins later, SL called and seeked my royal presence. how nice.  Rach didnt turn up. She’s prob still reeling sore from her last case of "Death of Hp in the pool of vomit".. chuckles. now THAT’s funny…Bill and I couldnt get over it. haa.


anycase, was good ole tame drinking session last nite. Def wasnt as "wild" as last one at wallas.


No shots, no bottoms up, no endless flow of beer, and def no peeking "cheeks" to snap. Bill thinks its utter waste that Vinc didnt keep the last pix of the gal wiith loose low waist jeans, flaunting the gully of her fair butt cheeks. Nah.. vince’s too much of a good boy…or rather his wife will ban him from hanging out with us ever again:)


Pouring and with premier of Star Wars, so there reallly wasnt much people to oogle or crowd with us. No Sweet crooming Joe either.. Alas. Poor me and Oli… still reminiscing abt Joe and his nice sweet apologetic smile. The Guys just dun get it..


Bill had to rem my "lost" wallet annd narrate the whole ridiculous espi to alex. then again, canx deny my hero his heroism deed for recovering "my precious" that was sittting on the floor that 6 other guys couldnt find…i still canx believe it. How could all of us miss my wallet on the floor??? To think i had to cancel alll the cards for nothing…Hmmm.. Bill swore he didnt play a trick on me but opinions differ.. haaa haa
Then Bill went on to share the management circular on "No G Strings allowed" by the pool as its an offence under the law of singappore. I gawked. Wait till they have my pissed drunk expat neighbors. So i told them abt how i saw them b0nking N*KED IN the POOL the other nite… imagine live p0-rno under my nose literally. perhaps…the 60yr old french grannie didnt like wat she saw outside her window that nite and prob alerted the guards… But of coz that fact didnt deter the guys from chancing on a replay.. Now, why doesnt that surprise me??!!!  FAT CHANCE PEOPLE!!


then the imposssible happened! Billy boy stepped into the deco pool of water as he was gona go take a leak!!!! Stunned! We started laughing our heads off. Impecabble tiiming considering. Without saying, Bill was teased relentlessly abt how excited he must have been near any body of water. *Strip boy! Strip!* haa haa.
Poor champ had to walk with one soggy sock for the rest of the nite! Eeeeeeeewwweeee!
Sock roasting by the candle flame, anyone?! ;p

Perfect Score?

Tuesday, May 17th, 2005

Normally, wont have paid much attention to the mothers’ chatters… but it was pretty hard to pretend to be deaf with a bunch of crackling behind me.



Apparently, one of the super mum was so elated that her son managed to "argue" for the half mark to attain that glorious 100% for his Chinese test. She was gleefully sharing her pride and beaming with joy while all the mothers went "Woooow" and nodding in furious approval. “Such a smart boy with GREAT potential” they said…





Potential?

Potential of what?



To celebrate another potential overly self-importantbrat in the making?

For a Primary one child to gallantly demand the teacher to "return" that 1/2 points (with full parental support) just didnt seem right to me. Admittedly, 100% is definitely an admirable goal, but going all out to prove that one is always right (for a non worthy cause) isn’t a mentality that is befitting of a kid who is learning the ways of the world. It is with little wonder that being a teacher is such an uphill task nowadays.



Anycase, I couldn’t resist butting in with my query. “Shouldn’t it be more important for him to understand the teacher’s rationale for the penalty, and learn from his mistake than to just fight for perfect score?” The mums looked at me incredulously. “100 marks you know! Plus it’s a top school!!” I swore I could almost have rolled my eyes.





What’s the deal about 100 marks and perfection? Its not gonna make one a millionaire, its not essentially an indication of his IQ or EQ, and least of all, he’s not even going to remember this day, this paper that he scored a perfect score for, at least I know I didn’t.



Some people absolutely just shouldn’t have kids.

Perfection is flawed in theory.

In my opinion, these people are just raising Cain.

One of those days

despair…absolutely bored to tears and munching guavas to keep myself occupied. Dun get me wrong, i’m not free (no no no boss, i’m not writing this for ur sake!! I swear), just bored with all the articles i have to write.. sigh. the two bacardi bottles definitely look more and more tempting with each passing minute..  maybe i shld chill it and then *hic*.. heh:)

2 freshies join the dept today. Another 2 female, tender, innocent fresh meat. The boys will be happi:)

Geezs, has it been that long? was i imagining that drift of school scent from them?!! Eeeeweee.. hope i dun have that bright eye gal kinda look when i first started work..Nnnnnah. i seriously doubt it.  Sooooo not me.

Good. Rain has stop. i shld so go jogging soon or i’m so gonna get those thunder thighs soon at the rate i’m idling around. Who was it who said it.. arh now i rem, there was this person who used to whine to me all the time that he rather die than grow fat. perhaps, its abt time i dangle that liner back at him… i dun think he’s gonna like that very very much, no no, i dun think he will like that very much at all. hee.

Stop asking me for my number!

Ooo… another volunteered number. Oh, another one asking for my number.

I dun get it really, i dun. I mean, can someone tell me what its going thru those minds.. wait wait, dun tell me. Nnooooo, u canx be serious.. they actually think they are being initative!! Or maybe this is some code game. Ooooo.. shld i be sooo excited and call back? Now let me think about it… Hmmm… okie… there’s nothing much to read from the email.. wait let me see "care to be frens?" No intro, no witty comments. nothing. okie, shld i read between the lines? Oh wait, there must be a hidden secret or a code word somehow… I’m really Smart, i can definitely figure wat what these boys want by leaving a number trail..if only i can manage to decipher it. It will take time, too much effort, Skip. But..There must be something INTERESTING in this email or he wont have bothered to leave a number. is it a contest? Will i win a prize if i call? Hmm.. let me seee….

Christ! I just wish people will quit leaving their number and expecting me to be dishing out mine like some freebies…  If one can plaster dough on my forehead each time i groan in despair, i would have been able to serve a nation of pratas in one month with all these incoming spam. All the boring subject and strings of "hi", and one wonders why we need to instil creativity into our education module… sigh..

anycase, off to better things…rob and amber lost the race… damn.. so close…i wish they won. I dunno why everyone’s giving rob such a hard time.  Its reality TV, everything is spiced up to make it interesting. People shld stop being so naive and think everyone shld be nice in a race. In comparison, some one shld so shoot the balls out of that POW schmuck.

And if u people out there havent come across this site, check it on. Unofficial reviews on the amazing race. Absolutely Hilarious!http://www.mrsgiggles.com/tv/tar_index.html

Longing for the coming long weekend! Yahhhooooo!! Sun, Sand, Sea! Freaking turning like some sick fair chicken after missing out on the sun for so long.. i can almost see the pores on my back! Nah, just kidding. heh. Still, this fairness thingie is so unbecoming.. gotto rid it soon.

okie okie… i better give it a rest or my eyes gonna pop again. 25 more epi to go for FMA! Yipppeee. Now.. whereever is my nightie cap…

Dinner after @Cliff

Tired! *Yawn* Been watching too much anime. Damn, canx wait to lay my hands on the next volume of Naruto!! Is it possible to sprain my eyeballs from watching too much TV?? Hmmm.. possibly.. bloody eye is hurting for a while.

still feeling the remains from last nite’s dinner @Cliff. Wasnt that fantastic. Definitely not worth the 9 grade from the best restaurant.. had to bloody wait for an hour before my entree was served and not without some hassling. Canx believe that waiter gave me a dumb line that i have to wait coz its "fresh seafood" restaurant. Like hell i shld be sooooooo impressed. Give me a break, i prob have dine at more "FRESH sea food" restaurant than he has worked in. I hate it when people tries to sound pompous and more impt than they really are. This dude really need some service training and they could learn a thing or 2 from Stillwater@Tas or Est @sydney in food and service… Ironically, the seafood didnt even taste that fresh and i spotted a dead marron on its bank in the display tank!! I could have died of laughing…if only i had my camera…fresh seafood huh….

Anycase, i prob wont head back there again. Alvin is such a better chef and serves better atlanta cod and i canx wait for his new relocated restaurant to be ready. Who says our local hardworking chef canx be better than these overseas trained chef? At least i know of one!

there, enuff bittaching for the day.. time to pamper mummy!
