DFS fashion show
Thursday, October 30, 2008 at 11:23 PM

so there i was, rotting away in the office and waiting to book out when kevin suddenly sms-ed and said there's a fashion show at DFS orchard and asked if i wanted to go. and since i had nth to do, so go i did. lol.

it was actually a masqueradish kinda reception and they gave us face masks like halloween came a day early. here's us showing 'em off in front of bottega:


it was quite an atas event haha. there was atas nibblets (i don't even know what i put in my mouth) and booze like bailey's and champagne and even a massage corner! but it was swarmed with tai-tais so we went halfway during the show or else we would never have gotten a seat.

this is a collage of the models parading the bags. so many bags! *drool* i can't be bothered to post all the pics one by one so shortcut haha. but "models' is kind of a misnomer 'coz they just used their own staff who were at best, far from model standards.

I ALSO CAN!

i can't believe this
Wednesday, October 29, 2008 at 7:53 PM

i read this story in the ST 2day and was nonplussed for a moment or two.

to summarise, basically this 36yo dude got a 6month jail term for kissing this 19yo gal on her hand without her permission. understandably this is not a normal thing to do under any circumstance and technically is considered an outrage of modesty but like a 6 month jail term just for that?!

it's not like we're in the middle east or something!

on another note however, i get flashed genitalia of varied shapes and sizes on webcam often enough and shamless offers for sex (euphemistically termed as "fun"). that certainly falls under the "outrage of modesty" and "sexual harrassment" categories so if our law is so draconian, i might as well try and put these menaces in jail.

that's an enticing prospect~

life is hard
Sunday, October 26, 2008 at 10:56 PM

i just got back from my last tuition session of the year.

and yes i am now officially unemployed.
life just got harder amidst the recession.
i don't know where my next meal will come from
or where i will find a shelter for my head.


so... anybody needs a tutor?!

standing ovation


SOTF goes Batam!
at 12:48 AM

omg i just came back from batam with the army dudes! and i'm fucking shag now haha. batam is a HORRIBLE place to shop. seriously. their "malls" are like far east or bugis but 10 years back. i was seriously looking forward to unleashing the power of the (flagging) singaporean economy but failed. abysmally.

AND their currency gave me a headache. never before had i to deal with sums ending with like 3 zeros. 6500RP = 1SGD. i was constantly having to divide everything by 6K and considering i don't have a GC with me, i was very flustered all the time.

haha oh and i realised something else. i was wearing too little clothes. it only struck me that as a pre-dominantly muslim country, covering up is like their culture and i was getting gawked at left right and centre. how embarrassing.

anyhow, let the pics do the talking!

this was at Harbourfront Cruise centre. it's kinda dark but if you look closely you can see the loud hailer. apparently they do not have a PA system. i was like omg this is like singapore! we're not in batam yet!

sigh. bloody customs didn't allow us to buy back booze 'coz we had to be overseas > 48hrs to enjoy duty free. absolut @ 2 for $49! i was very depressed by that



our first stop was A&W for lunch! omg that was one of our main reasons for going batam. rmb the good old days of waffles + ice cream and root beer floats *swoons*

lunch was just one big gastronomical orgasm *contented sigh*



we had to show our love for the A&W bear!

celeb shot #1: outside the massage parlour


what a waste. full body massage for 1.5 hours at like 15 bloody bucks (dunno what the Rp equivalent is. the no is too big). but their masseurs were like all occupied! and freddy had a bimbo moment lol:


Freddy: "how many massagers are there?"

nelson and i (in scandalised tones): "masseurs!"


so we left for Golden Prawn for an early dinner where i had my celeb shot #2 haha

bimbo moment #2: note the flora at the bottom left? it's actually a cactus. and freddy just pounced onto it and jabbed himself all over the place. camwhoring is a dangerous profession.

the gift shop was so cheapo! before we stepped in i was like "wah parquet floor" and got excited 'coz i figured that finally i could buy something but alas. it was just like wallpaper but on the floor =.=

and the staff were like ex-SQ girls. they were wearing our SIA uniform! the pic's kinda blur 'coz i had to surreptitiously take this damning shot of shameless poaching!


off to dinner proper. golden prawn's cool 'coz basically you catch your own seafood which will be served to you later! so i contributed to our prawn feast later but wasn't very successful 'coz the bloody creatures are alive and can swim and jump.

so in the end the staff gave up and helped us choose lol.


while waiting for the food to be cooked, freddy and i decided to do some exercise and went for a spin on the lake in this contraption which costs us like $4 bucks for an unlimited time (which is very misleading 'coz i got tired after like 1 minute)



seafood and beer!

our group photo before leaving the place. the taxi uncle really should just stick to driving a taxi and quit photography. apparently he doesn't even know how to zoom! zzz



lastly, on the return ferry, we were like self high and camwhored to the max. and i really mean max. i don't rmb camwhoring of such a degree in a very very long time. there're like a gazillion pics but i can't be bothered to upload all one-by-one so i chose a few and here's a collage!

here's the link for the full extent of our efforts on facebook. sorry you gotta alr be my friend on facebook to view. i'm a little protective of FB for obvious reasons lol.

anyway, that concludes our little adventure. and now i'm looking forward to HK/shenzhen! whooo! that's when the real shopping begins =D

standing ovation


obese smelly creature
Friday, October 24, 2008 at 2:24 PM

so i just got back from camp. and my dog is in a playful mood and since i haven't cam-whored in awhile, i decided to involve him! lol check berney and me out:










even though he's fat and smelly, he's very cutteeee! and that's why i love him~






standing ovation


i want a baby!
Tuesday, October 21, 2008 at 11:47 PM

edward and i went to see Jennifer on mon b4 booking in 'coz she just gave birth to her 2nd girl! and omg after that i so want a baby!

isn't she the most adorable thing?! k the stitch is also quite cute but not the focus

Jennifer was so proud. She usually looks more glam but considering she just gave birth, we must all cut her some slack.


Edward and I both tried carrying her. omg it's really very unnerving at first. a baby's such a fragile little thing and i was so scared my klutziness would act up again and like drop her or some devasting thing like that.

Jennifer said it's a guy thing so ha! but we got the hang of it eventually.

it looks like i'm breastfeeding her but no, i do not have breasts. lactating or otherwise

okay i definitely want a baby now. where to find one?!

anyone wanna volunteer to be a surrogate mother?? =D

Vikram Seth's response to the Aids situation in India
Thursday, October 16, 2008 at 8:08 PM

SOON

I shall die soon, I know. This thing is in my blood.
It will not let me go. It saps my cells for food.

It soaks my nights in sweat And breaks my days in pain.
No hand or drug can treat These limbs for love or gain.

Love was the strange first cause That bred grief in its seed,
And gain knew its own laws—To fix its place and breed.

He whom I love, thank God, Won’t speak of hope or cure.
It would not do me good. He sees that I am sure.

He knows what I have read And will not bring me lies.
He sees that I am dead. I read it in his eyes.

How am I to go on—How will I bear this taste,
My throat cased in white spawn—These hands that shake and waste?

Stay by my steel ward bed And hold me where I lie.
Love me when I am dead And do not let me die.

- Vikram Seth


poignant huh?

SOTF goes makan
at 1:46 AM

Dallas Chicken buffet!

SOTF sans duty personnel~


pool @ Paradiz

i got bored of pool haha

Tau Huey for dinner 'coz chicken is hard to digest...

@ some unglam alley which you can see behind me! =.="

ytd really was one damn bad karma day. it started off with teo yy aka crazy dog accusing the dallas chicken owner of being one of the London terrorists who escaped to SG to hide out a while.

then while on the bus on the way to paradiz, he was asking if the handicapped bus bell that was like at our knees were meant for like midgets and laughed like a crazy dog so i told him to stop laughing like a retard and when i turned my head to the left, a bus full of Minds kids pulled up beside ours. zzz. then he made a "down-syndrome face" at them and i was most aghast. and when we finally arrived at paradiz, he went to press the midget bus bell and an alarm starting beeping and the bus driver was like "OI!". apparently that is not a bus bell but rather a handicapped assist button. finally the bad karma caught up with him. haha.

If I Kissed You
Tuesday, October 7, 2008 at 12:02 PM




If I Kissed You
- Corrinne May


If I kissed you, would fireworks fly?
Woud angels sing with lollipops, would dinosaurs cry?
Would babies all gurgle in laughter and surprise?
If I kissed you

If I kissed you, what would Michaelangelo say?
Would he still have sculpted David, would we be immortalized in clay?
Would the poets write of love like ours, would John Donne have his say?
If I kissed you

You could be one in a million, you could be the one for me
But l guess I'll never know if I never try
I guess I'll just have to grab you in my arms and kiss you


If I kissed you, would you lose track of time?
Would you feel a surge of happiness running up your spine?
Would you run naked in the street with a tattoo of my name on your behind?
If I kissed you, oh, if I kissed you, yeah, if I kissed you

standing ovation

i'm sorry it has to come to this.
we tried our best but in the end, we were beaten by circumstance.


Love After Love

The time will come

when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other's welcome,

and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you

all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,

the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.


-Derek Walcott


i wish you all the happiness in life
and fervently hope that i contributed at least a little to the net sum of that.
