I'm 23!


As reluctant as it is, I'm another year older and I don't like it!
23, no achievement, no house, no car, no life, aging, growing side ways, small boobs, and the list goes on...

Went to Tippling club at Dempsey road for dinner on the eve of my birthday, 27th October, wednesday night.
Had 8 course French crusine so by the time the last course was served, I was already very full. After desert, I went to use the washroom and I was surprised by a birthday cake when I came out.
After cutting cake and forcing myself to eat more, we went down to boat quay for some drinks.
Many thanks to Jun Hao for planning the pleasant celebration and the effort in the present.

Went to work hungover the next day and Diana sort of surprised me by Bringing Aston lunch down to shop.

Dad called and sang a little birthday song...
Dad: (singing) Happy birthday to you
Me: Thank you
Dad: That's all I can give you (still in singing tune)
Me: boo hoo hoo (jokingly)
Dad: (sudden serious tone) You got money or not?
Me: Ya... of cos
Dad: A lot?
Me: No la...
Dad: ok, tonight give you money...
(O_o")

Yvonne planned a surprised for me at Obar along with Peter.
Peter's acting was really good... He asked me out for dinner and then went on about how he really had a bad day cos he got scolded by his boss so he really need a drink badly.

Yvonne on the other hand was superb. She messaged me on the day before asking how I'm gonna celebrate on the actual day. I simply replied "No plans". Then she tried to raise my hopes up high saying how she's gonna plan something and make me die(drunk).
So, on the actual day, she messaged me saying that she got some other programs hence she wouldn't be celebrating or planning anything for me like what she promised. I wasn't angry or anything but when I logged in to facebook, I saw this.
Was quite upset after seeing this as I wondered what 'friends' could be so important to make her go back on her words.

After dinner, Peter and me proceed to Obar. As I walked in, I saw Yvonne, Allan Julie, Jiali, Sara, Jonathan and Andrew already seated by the table. Although my expression didn't show it, I was surprised k! Although before that I already suspected something was going on when I saw Allan crossing the over head bridge as he acted like he's on his way home.

Anyways,

I was touched...

I had fun...

And I was totally abused!

Oh wells, can't blame them for this when I'm always smashing cake on their face when its their birthday.

Thanks to all who turned up.
Many thanks for the birthday cake and Yvonne who planned the birthday bash for me. I smelled like party foam spray and my hair stunk to the max!
Thanks to Amelia and Jiali for the La Senza voucher although I don't really have the time to go shopping.

Peter gave me this lovely necklace as my birthday present way before my birthday. He says it symbolizes the key to his heart. My mum on the other end was funny. She saw the pendant and exclaims "becareful! He's trying to lock your heart!!!" Ahhhha funny stuff!

Drank four days straight as I met up with Peter, his friend Niki, Jingwen and Jianwei at clarkquay on the following Friday. Totally tiring! Hop around from highlander to Indochine to Shanghai Dolly with Jiali.

Peter booked a room at marina mandarin for a night over the weekends as a treat for my birthday(or rather himself). Lazed around in the hotel room, went to Vivo-No signboard for crabs and till then its PARTY TIME for the Saturday night as we celebrate halloween at Butter factory.









Smiley Freddy Kruger, lame boy with stabbed head and the angel in disguise.

Peter drunk!
LOL I was surprise that after drinking straight for four days, not to mention deprived of sleep, I'm still able to keep it up to only tipsy. Guess it was the Mind-over-body effect as I'm suppose to be on good behavior over the weekends. *Ahem*

When I finally got home, Mum got me a super belated birthday cake. At least this year she bother to buy a small cake rather then just give me money.

Holiday at Krabi

Went to Krabi-Thailand from 29sept to 2oct. I just love beach vacations!

Took Tiger airline to Krabi and was super angry! Must really have a fucked up management to CONSTANTLY delay passenger's flight. Numerous complains were received but yet, they are still giving craps to their customers with the delays and cancellations. Oh wells, its the only flight in Singapore that goes directly to Krabi, no choice.

Reached Krabi airport, met up with guide and checked in to Ao nang villa resort.
Was quite satisfied with the resort. Good environment close to town and shops with spacious pool view room.

Rented a scooter and explored the town. Ate at some seafood restaurant for dinner and went bar hopping for beer and cocktails.

Woke up early the next morning all excited to go island hopping.
Took a speed boat to Phi Phi island, Bamboo island and Maya beach for snorkeling and suntanning.

The islands are well known for its clear water and natural beauty.

The water is mad blue!


I remembered freaking the shit out of myself the last time i went snorkeling during my Phuket trip because for some reason, I'm scared of fishes be it small fish or big fish. But this time, I was determined to do it although I am very scared of putting my face into the water, and not to mention, I felt a fish nip me on my belly, (fucking fish, I hope you die the most horrible way a fish could ever imagine) I still brave it and swam around.
After trying for the second time at another island, I wasn't as scared anymore although I also felt another fish nip my arm. (FUCK YOU FISH)
The situation didn't make it any easier for me when there's a super irritating Indian dude in the group constantly throwing bread from the boat into the water at the snorkelers. I freaked out when I see a school of fish chionging towards me for bread, right at my face! I'm lucky I didn't get a panic attack in the water.


Me and flabby guy.

With the island guide.

Saw this cat sleeping like that and I thought it was dead or something. Funny pose!

Busy streets.

OH! I gained 2KG when i weighed myself at the airport. SIGH!

The third day was an adventurous day.

We did flying fox which looked pretty dodgy as if the rope will snap anytime and I worry i will fall into the river and get eaten up by piranhas or crocs. Scary shit!

We did whitewater rafting for 5KM which I find pretty fun. However my arms were aching like hell after that. Plus the fat white guy sitting in front of me kept falling backwards on me, and his wife, who is also fat, was siting beside me and I have to be wary of her paddle giving me a black eye the whole time cos she wasn't holding it properly.

Did cliff jumping at a waterfall. Almost peed my pants but it was a good try. I'm glad I plucked up enough courage to jump off.

Did elephant tracking. Felt sorry for the elephant though.


Best first time activity was riding the ATV. I felt so hardcore riding the huge ass bike on the rocky paths. I was also covered in mud all over. Had awesome fun doing that =D

After washing off the mud, we did fish spa, watched monkey and elephant show. That pretty much sums up the day.










And while we crawl out of bed early in the morning to catch our flight back to Singapore, Tiger air was happily rescheduling our flights. Assholes!

Knowing girls online

In these days, there are so many mediums to get to know people online. And needless to say, I guess the most popular social site for all ages now is Facebook.

Most of the time, I think guys will have this urge or need to find or know an attractive girl they saw and message them be it ugly/psychotic/perverted/hot/good looking guys or even attached guys.
Usually the 'pick up line' or rather the first message send would be something like "you're hot/pretty/beautiful" or some corny message about how he so want to be FRIENDS with you.
I used to get really annoyed but now when such guys send me compliments like that, I usually reply with sarcasm or a simple "I know" just to see what else they can come up with and then laugh at them for being such losers in my mind.

However, in a very few and rare cases, when interest rises, I would start talking to those strangers be it having common interest in certain area or... well, you don't think there's any harm chatting with the person online. I digress RARE. Like 1 in a 500.

Examples of people I would ignore or reply in sarcasm:

Stupid questions deserve sarcastic answer or in this case, being ripped at for being a loser.


I bet in his mind he's thinking 'make love' rather then make friend.


Like I owe him an answer to what i work as.


Too act cute with the *pop by.



Beautiful relation. WTF?


Golden rules:
1. Never ask stupid question.
2. Unless its sian-ing xiao mei mei, don't act cute.
3. Never write corny shit.
4. Neber typee lyke tis. Its pisses the shit outta me.

Guys should probably say something creative or humorous but not showing that he is desperate or something like that.

A witty reply can definitely change the tides and bloom into something else =D
A witty humorous reply especially for a snobbish bitch.

when a tornado meets a volcano

Stuck to this song by Eminem featuring Rihanna-Love the way you lie.
The lyrics is so fricking true... been there, done that.

And why is Megan Fox staring in Music Video? Kinda weird no?
Everyone was like "Is that Megan Fox and that dude from Lost?"
Nevertheless, good act, fits perfectly for the song.



(Chorus)
just gonna stand there and watch me burn
that's alright because i like the way it hurts
just gonna stand there and hear me cry
that's alright because i love the way you lie
i love the way you lie


i can't tell you what it really is
i can only tell you what it feels like
and right now it's a steel knife in my windpipe
i can't breathe but i still fight while i can fight
as long as the wrong feels right it's like i’m in flight
high off of love
drunk from my hate
it's like i'm huffing paint and i love it the more i suffer, i suffocate
and right before i'm about to drown, she resuscitates me
she fucking hates me and i love it
wait, where you going?
i'm leaving you
no you ain't, come back
we’re running right back
here we go again so insane
cause when it's going good its going great
i'm superman with the wind in his back
she’s Lois Lane
but when its bad its awful
i feel so ashamed i snapped
whose that dude?
i don’t even know his name
i laid hands on her
i never stoop so low again
i guess i don't know my own strength

you ever love somebody so much you can barely breathe
when you with them you meet and neither one of you even know what hit them
got that warm fuzzy feeling
yeah them chills used to get em
now you're getting fucking sick of looking at them
you swore you'd never hit them
never do nothing to hurt them
now you're in each other's face
spewing venom in your words when you spit them
you push pull each other's hair
scratch, claw, bit them, throw them down, pin them
so lost in the moments when you're in them
it's the rage that took over it controls you both
so they say it's best to go your seperate ways
guess that they don't know you
cause today that was yesterday
yesterday is over, it's a different day
sound like broken records playing over
but you promised her next time you'll show restraint
you don't get another chance
life is no Nintendo game
but you lied again
now you get to watch her leave out the window
guess that's why they call it window pane

now i know we said things, did things, that we didn't mean
and we fall back into the same patterns, same routine
but your temper's just as bad as mine is, you’re the same as me
when it comes to love you're just as blinded
baby please come back, it wasn't you, baby it was me
maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems
maybe that's what happens when a tornado meets a volcano
all i know is i love you too much to walk away though
come inside, pick up the bags off the sidewalk
don't you hear sincerity in my voice when i talk?
told you this is my fault, look me in the eyeball
next time i'm pissed i'll aim my fist at the drywall
next time there won't be no next time
i apologize even though i know its lies
i'm tired of the games i just want her back
i know i'm a liar
if she ever tries to fucking leave again
i'ma tie her to the bed and set this house on fire

(End)

p/s: Me likey Rhianna's boobies. It sure looks like she did a boob job.

St. Louis 26/6-2/7/2010

Went to my once a year trip to U.S.A. This time the show is in St. Louis-Missouri.

In Japan airline on the way to Tokyo for transit. As usual, long flights=pain in the ass.

Checked in to hotel and went to the ICRS luncheon. Met people from all over the globe, learned and picked up stuffs especially from the participants of Nigeria. Felt blessed and deeply sympathize with countries/areas in poverty.

Outside the convention center.

Stayed in Mayfair-Wyndham historic hotel for the week. Super shiok and spacious hotel. Me likey~

Pictures from hotel's website.

In the lobby.


Even the lift is so old school.

What kind of warning is this? A note written in marker "park here again, car will be towed".

After 4 long horrible days and sleepless nights due to jet lag, its finally time to relax!



Headed down to St. Louis must-see gateway arch.

The nearer i approached the structure, the more i gasp for its stunning and perfect structure.


Went to the museum to have a better understanding on the history of the gateway arch before going up to view the scenery of the town.
My insecure expression says I'm afraid that the bear will turn real soon and rip the shit outta me.


The arch is made up of stainless steel and reaches up to 630 feet. Its the most popular attraction in st. Louis and it cost approximately 13 million to build the arch.


I like how they discourage people from touching the displays.


took a lift/capsule/tram thingy to the peak of the arch.

The view down is beautiful...

The Busch stadium

The Gateway arch shadowed upon the Mississippi river.

Inside the peak of the arch

Wanted to take a cruise ride along the Mississippi river but the cruise are not operating as the river is flooded. What a waste =(
So I decided to check out the river and indeed, its over flooded.




The next day, I took a train down to forest park and went to the Missouri History Museum-Jefferson memorial. Wanted to go to 6 flags St. Louis theme park initially but its really way too far away so i skipped it.

I was hunting for places to have brunch and immediately know that i'm gonna eat here.
SUNNIES!!!

I got this sandwich for free in the end because the waiter says I waited too long. Hence its on the house. I don't even feel i waited for very long.

Went to watch the exhibit on Vatican Splendors. I'm pretty amazed by all the art pieces and history of the artists like Michelangelo and Gitto.
Super cool~


Took a bus down to St. Louis zoo-the nation's best/top zoo. It not only gives you a natural experience of the animal's habitat with close encounters, it also doesn't charge a single dime for the entry! NICE~

Purchased the train ticket and explored the whole zoo.

Sea lion show. Cute and smart to max!


The 3D ride is super stupid. The graphic is not even realistic enough.

Ended the day with a beer again. Oh how i miss bud light.


Someone commented that every time i blog about a trip, my ending is always very.... lame. so here is how i'm ending it.

TIME TO GO HOME!
