    the biggest loser + sale
    Friday, December 30, 2005 (9:44 PM)

    it's been a long time since i last hit the channel 5 button on my remote and when i did just now, i saw 2 interesting reality shows. one by richard branson: searching for the best and the other, the biggest loser - weight loser, that is. i didn't really catch most of the entire show because i had to cater to the audience at home, so i chose to go with the mandarin channels instead though mum didn't mind watching the reality series. it has also been a long time since i last hit the road for the gym because i've been pretty badly ill the past week and the diarrhea didn't make things better. people have been telling me i have loss weight and you should know i don't have much to lose already. been starting slow today and things went on pretty fine.

    before hitting the gym, we went to swee lee year-end sale. it was really packed despite being really early in the morning and the showroom was pretty much wiped out since the sale started yesterday. in the end, i spent $18 on gripmaster at ranking sports instead and at the moment, it doesn't really work the way i expected it to. i've also decided on rgt42dx last night instead of rg1520g because of quite a few reasons. firstly, rg1520g is really too expensive. furthermore, i don't really need the roland equipped guitar on an electric one. plus, 42dx has a mahogany body and the same pick-up configuration. the only thing i don't really favour on 42dx is the fretboard which doesn't use dots, which i'm more accustomed to. anyway, mike is offering to help me get a better price on that and i don't have to rush to get anything today.

    well, i got philosophy and i decided to drop malay for this coming semester. maybe go for sound, grammar and meaning of japanese language instead. but we'll see how things go.

    i've also been trying hard to find the book opus dei: secrets and power inside the catholic church and it finally paid off when i found it at kino. but i didn't manage to get it 0_0... because guang suggested checking out borders before deciding and i agreed. before heading to borders, he wanted to check out this vegetarian restaurant in far east, so we went there and it began to rain heavily and his father happened to be there as well, so he offered to send me home. so i reached home before i could lay my hands on a copy of opus dei.


    cheap philosophy + my darling kaori
    Thursday, December 29, 2005 (12:35 PM)

    bidding starts today and out of the 3 modules that i have to bid this coming semester, only one is open today. music's next tuesday and malay on thursday. how many off days can i take man? but the good news is, up till now, of 170 vacancies, less than 50 are being bidded and as of now, i'm only using 1 point for it. if things go well, this module could cost me a mere 1 point. plus 2 pre-allocated modules this time round sort of salvaged my points for last semester's extravagance on the nature of language. it was my part to blame for the price. i missed the sale the last time round and when i reached clearance, the price shot up like mad with the stratified upper class despising minnows like myself with a 1.8k bid on opening.

    kaori went back to japan around 2 weeks ago and i didn't go see her off because rehearsal ended late. By my darling kaori, i'm not referring to her though. for some unplanned reasons, my hand had a life of it's own. it conspired with my legs which sent me to my room, opened my drawer (i don't have to specify my legs don't open drawers, do i?) and retrieved every little thing's year 2000 concert video. i caught mochida kaori in action again, after a long time. she's such a darling with powerful vocals. a pity her voice broke during the encore section and she couldn't hit the high note. at least she matched the harmonics.

    i had wanted to post her pictures from the video but apparently, the newer windows media player is not a fan of the print screen function. they just play the video in my picture file! what a freak. the vidz had so much better pictures but i had to find one from the net in the end. i can't remember the url, so please don't sue me for copyright infringement. afterall, i'm sure the site i took this from, didn't own this photo.

    i just realised that the bidding for round1a ends tomorrow (thanks to jolin), which means, i took off from work today for nothing! probably have a good rest but nothing to do with this bidding because i can do this bidding thing tomorrow afternoon. seriously! i should've been more careful. jasmine's probably right when she said i look like the blur blur kind but i'd like to think otherwise. by the way, what's a blog? i'm thinking of starting one.


    devil + heaven + doing something
    Wednesday, December 28, 2005 (7:45 PM)

    kerry packer, one of the most promising bid winners to own the integrated resorts here on the shores on southern island off singapore, sentosa has recently passed on. this created much controversy as to whether his son, james packer would have the same tenacity and guts that brought kerry packer to what he is today and continue the bid for a casino under his name. that isn't really my concern here. no, sis isn't sick but i still read the papers this morning, which mentioned about this issue. kerry packer was once clinically dead for 8 whole minutes. when he came to, he said, 'the good news is, there's no devil. the bad news is, there's no heaven. there's nothing.' now we know where we go after we pass on. or maybe, by the term 'clinically dead', we refer to the professionals misconstruing the state of his being for an entire 8 minutes.

    i read a quote quite some time back but it didn't cross my mind until i saw it again today. 'worrying is just like sitting in a rocking chair, it gives you something to do but gets you nowhere.' if you do have some troubles, why not go out and do something about it? if not, there's really no point worrying. of course, i'm fully aware that saying is easy and worrying is one of the paraphernalias of life. i wasn't born phlegmatic that i don't fret over anything but still, this quote is really meaningful. for the cynical, perhaps it affects you to the extent that tuesdays with morrie does although you may not agree and it doesn't really bother me if you don't.

    i thought i've all planned out a list of beautiful modules to take this coming semester. then it turns out that 2 of the modules have lectures on the same day, same time. i had thought the science of music has 2 lecture groups to choose from and then i realised it has 2 lectures every week. so, i had to give up taking japanese language this semester. perhaps i'm being given more time to change my plans. maybe i shouldn't take japanese language in uni. the original plan was:

    1) structures of sentences and meanings
    2) structure of sounds and words
    3) science of music
    4) malay language
    5) japanese language

    then it turns out, i can only take either science of music or japanese. of course, i'd choose the former. so the next plan was replacing japanese language with singapore's military history. but i'd have to rush from arts to science since the lectures follow one after another and one thing i hate the most is to have to rush (which is precisely why i always wake up more than one hour before going out and leave for destination at least one hour before meeting time). so in the end, i had to take philosophy in place of japanese language to fulfill my faculty exposure requirement. well, you can't get best of all worlds. haha... at least i still have 3 more unrestricted electives to play around with for the next 3 semesters after this coming one is over.

    since cors closes at 5pm tomorrow, i will go wreck havoc at soma! then friday being a half working day, i'll do the same to swee lee. carry on worrying... you are next. need a rocking chair?


    illness and music
    Sunday, December 25, 2005 (6:21 PM)

    these 2 probably don't sound like they are even close, let alone be relevant but because of illness, i have been spending more time with music for the past few days. the internet seemed to have met joe johnston's honey i shrunk the kids equivalent, thus, the amount of time spent in front of my pc is shrinking proportionally. but i don't really have much to do with those instruments i have at home and all i do is keep playing the same old pieces that i already know. mxtabs has revamped to sputnik or something to that extent where all i could find was reviews. probably coz i still have no idea where they shifted the whole tablature thing to. at least i still have more things to do with my guitar. train for speed, memorise scales. these 2 alone would take lots of time and i'm not someone who would spend 4 hours on my guitar. the most i would spend is probably 2 hours straight then i'll move to my keyboard, play the same old beethoven, mozart, brahms, kiroro and finally turn it off. i'm not even good at any of these pieces. and don't be amazed when i say i play brahms, because i'm playing lullaby. so i decided to find something else to play. i managed to get kevin kern's sundial dreams score, but being a lousy side-reader, i decided to procrastinate a bit since my brain isn't that fresh for me to strain it at score reading for the time being.

    i told myself that going through the music theory book once would not be enough. but having gone through once, i'm kinda lazy to go through it again. i'd probably get a few past year papers to try it out, see which areas i'm weaker at then work on that. it'd be easier, wouldn't it? plus, i already know which area i suck at anyway. whoever invented writing pauses in compound time? the book was funny though. it seemed to suggest that bach is a really outdated musician, whenever it mentioned about him.

    sweelee is having a sale on 29th and 30th dec, promotion of up to 50% and 'everything must go' according to the marketing poster. if rg1520 goes at 50%, it'd be only $900+ and if pgm300 goes at 50%, it'd be only $700+. i might be going down on friday after work though i might not be getting anything, but somehow, window shopping has an unexplainable effect on human being. and the indescribable pleasure of purchasing is a fetish that people call 'retail therapy'. let's face it, it's a fetish.

    i hope to get my desired modules for the coming semester. i'm going to throw 800 points down for the science of music. and see if i'm lucky enough to still get japanese5 at 1 point again. oh ya, results are out. thank god i managed to pass all my modules. surprisingly, i managed to get a cap of 3.1, which i had expected to be lower. then i met farhana online. she said her results are not good but managed to pass. then she asked how i fared. i said i'm pretty satisfied with my results and told her the grades, hesitantly (because she said hers are not good, i thought i'd hurt her ego if i said it too direct). but it turns out, she got a cap of 3.7 and then she realises she shouldn't think her results suck. while i'm doing this, another friend said her cap is very bad - 3.2. -___- the expectations of jc students... then jx, who got a cap of 2.5, said he can continue slacking next semester because, in his words '(he) didn't study still can pass.' he said he would work hard if his cap falls below 2.0. now you see the difference between jc students and poly students.

    this coming thursday, i would be taking off for cors bidding and i'm afraid i'd need another day to bid for the breadth module unless science of music opens for bidding in round1a. after that, if i threw all my points down by 5pm, i'd probably join guang at soma's (school of music + arts) trial class though i'm not going to join them and i wasn't invited, but who cares? i will turn up anyway!


    tuesdays with morrie... again
    Saturday, December 24, 2005 (9:57 AM)

    by now, many of you have probably read this book already. early last year, when sis passed me the book, i finished it in one day and couldn't wait to share how good this book was. it talked about life and work. relationships and money. not bgr but more like family and friendship ties. and i thought i had already learnt the importance of these relationships and at the same time, understood that money isn't all that is needed. until now, when i'm having fever and headache, when i blacked out 2 days ago at home, when i couldn't work on thursday, when i lost the mini cooper midnight job. i began to see, why am i slogging myself out for money? this holiday, i've taken up 2 jobs already. if i had accepted the mini cooper one, it'd be the third. why am i killing myself over it?

    then i thought about weeteck. just when i thought of recommending this book to him, i realised that he doesn't really need it. he is living how life should be lived. he spends more time with his friends and family, occasionally doing assignment basis work to get by. sure, some of you may think it's unambitious. but hey, he's happy doing what he is doing. that's all that's important, isn't it? rather than working 6 days a week and resting the remaining 24 hours. you don't even have time to enjoy the cash you reap. this illness has struck me a heavy deal. i understood that i don't have to fret over this money issue so much. as long as i can get a job, it's fine. i don't have to work every other day that i get off from another job. guang suggested my illness is due to exhaustion, others suggested it's due to stress. haha... whatever it is, i sure hope i recover soon.

    i seriously recommend this book to all of you who have yet to read it. the idea of the whole book? 'learn how to die before you learn how to live'


    new job + old schedule
    Tuesday, December 20, 2005 (8:05 PM)

    sis told me her friend is looking for an interpreter for japanese->english and vice versa and asked if i'm interested. then she went down to the doctor's till now before i can get more information from her. well, here is the chance for my dream job but am i up to it? success is for those who are ready when oppotunity knocks and i don't think i am ready but i would like to give it a shot if everything falls into place. mum is also checking out with shark (shark's my mum's sis. not coz she's fierce but coz she's my 3rd aunt - try saying that in mandarin) for jobs on 26th dec and 2nd jan. shyna posted a job opening in friendster but from the information required, i don't think i stand a chance since it seems to be for pretty boys with good built only.

    i just saw guang's schedule for the next week on his blog. then i thought about mine and understood what is life. i probably won't forget my schedule but here goes:

    monday
    - work from 830-1730
    - go home to complete another work's report for submission

    tuesday
    - work from 830-1730

    wednesday
    - work from 830-1730

    thursday
    - work from 830-1730

    friday
    - work from 830-1730
    - meet guang for dinner at 1830
    - go gym at 2130
    - get pay!

    saturday
    - guitar class from 1900-2000
    - pay guitar class fee
    - submit 6-string ticket sales

    sunday
    - lonely christmas

    not that i do not wish to go any further but i don't wanna be the cause for your depression. and no, i do not have depression despite this kind of schedule. by the way, this will be my last entry. i'm jumping off this building after this.


    6-string + ice-cream cone + job
    Monday, December 19, 2005 (9:49 PM)

    the sembawang 6-string extravaganza was last saturday and it was the performance that i enjoyed the most so far. among the performances i've had since primary school, i've had the most fun this time. no doubt we didn't do exceptionally well but somehow, i enjoyed that day thoroughly and now that it's over, it's quite a pity and because of this day, it made me want to work even harder for future performances. no doubt we made mistakes here and there, no doubt the audience turn out was less than last year, some how, it was the one i enjoyed the most. somehow. now we're looking forward for more improvements.

    the news just announced that in the past, for every dollar we donated, only 10 cents went to the kidney patients. it's like handing a middle man $5 to buy a meal for a needy and he only bought a macdonald's ice-cream cone. imagine, for every $5 million donated, $4.5 million went to nkf and a mere $500k went to patients. to think over $6 million was donated for every nkf charity show. and imagine if they managed to aid 3000 patients with $500k, how many they could've helped with $5 million. the nkf staffs also get a salary raise 4 times a year! who says you need a good qualification to get quick pay rise?

    i've been working on weekdays for the past 2 weeks and took up a second job assignment which i just completed. now that the next 2 mondays are public holidays, i'm in search of 2 more one-day jobs on 26th dec and 2nd jan respectively. if you do have any job lobangs, please let me know~ any job besides those roadside surveyor kind of thing is fine since it's only one day. by the time i regret taking up the job, the day will be over and more cash will be on my way. muwahahahaha...


    phantasmagoria
    Thursday, December 15, 2005 (11:39 PM)

    i had loads of dreams last night. dreams that do not relate to one another at all. they just come and go like an amateur cut-scene from his first movie direction.

    i dreamt that i was out with yiwen at a coffee shop, we ordered noodles and a drink each. then suddenly, i was hanging out with paxce members in the guitar room, but the room was empty and michelle has a tattoo above her ankle. all of us were talking like we knew each other for a long time but i can't remember the conversation. next moment, i was changing clothes in temasek poly and i threw my shirt into a nearby bucket. the next instance, a soccer field appeared and my shirt flew all the way to the other end of the field on the fence. in order to get it back, i had to run a few hundred metres round the school. when i finally got my clothes and was running back to the coffee shop, i ran past lee leong. i followed him into a classroom and he was playing sudoku with an unfriendly interface. i commented on the poor interface and recommended a better one for the game which someone we know has. then i'm at the coffee shop again and yiwen finished 3/4 of my noodles and most of my drink. i was dumbfounded. suddenly, we are at rehearsal and aaron took my t-shirt which i wanted to wear for performance. i was stunned again. before i know it, i was somewhere with jessie and we got back our political science papers. she got a c while i got a b. and amidst all these haphazard images, yanni was teaching me the art of kissing over and over again like a transition between the dreams. what a load of crazy dreams.

    my colleague told me she dreamt of me on tuesday night, my 3rd day of work only. she dreamt that we're in the same school and we went to school together. it was funny but if you did dream of me as well, let me know. if you didn't, try to. afterall, it's just a dream, i promise to let you do anything you want to me... in your dreams.


    the truth about this blog - finally
    Sunday, December 11, 2005 (9:46 PM)

    exam results are due to be released on 23rd december. i heard it was on 24th and i thought well, at least i can enjoy christmas eve. looks like they do not even want to give me christmas eve. this christmas is going to be tough, if the results come out bad. i dreamt that i failed 3 modules last night. good omen? bad omen? as the chinese saying goes, the shitty merchant loses a horse, the smoke knows a flying tailsman. giving up? 塞翁失马焉知非福. that's right, my dream is to work as a translator and i'm sure you can see my potential.

    many people have been bugging me about it and i've finally decided to reveal why i started this blog. as mentioned before, blogs aren't really my kind of thing and people have been shocked and asked me, 'why you blog!?' and told me, 'you are the last person i would expect to be blogging'. similarly, i would be the last person to believe i'm actually blogging but like what i've said, i did this for a reason and the reason is to market my venture. since blogs started to become really hot at that time, i decided that it would be a great source of marketing for an experimental venture. now you understand why my first few entries kept mentioning about edujation. that was what i was trying to see if it works out and it turns out, it doesn't. now you know what i was talking about in the '$600 experience'. now you see why edujation is under recommendation. though the site will still be up for the next few months till the end of the contract next august, if anyone is interested in learning japanese language, just contact me direct. i won't charge - friends only.

    now that the truth is out, you understand why i started this blog despite it not being something i would normally do, but it has been a great medium to voice my opinions and be crappy (not that i've ever been not crappy). i'm not sure if this will carry on. it probably would, so don't cry me a river. cry me an ocean.


    disruption + hingis + work
    Thursday, December 08, 2005 (8:20 PM)

    sis is on her last day of medical leave today. this means, i stayed at home again today. this means, i read the papers again today. this means, i'm going to talk about what was published in the papers again today. one article from a parent of a full-time national serviceman wrote to the papers saying that her son is serving 22 months of national service. by rule, nsf serving 22 months are not allowed to apply for disruption for their studies and this parent feel that his son should be allowed to disrupt because he will ord in november while he is admitted to an overseas university which begins in september. she felt that if this happens, her son will need to wait for 10 months before beginning his studies. i had thought that her son can choose to work and save up during that period. if her son is serving the 30 months of service, he would definitely be approved of the disruption but i believe it's preferable to serve the 22 months and wait the 10 months.

    well, martina hingis is making her way back to tennis after a brief retirement. she ended on a high note before her ankle failed her and the papers are wondering if it's a big mistake to return and risk ruining her reputation and she said if she doesn't return, at 30 she would be wondering what could have happened if she had. sometimes risks have to be taken so that there won't be regrets i guess. she said she had played sharapova when they were younger and wondered how things would change now. i began watching tennis at about the same time hingis made it big, at the time when stefi graf still graced the courts and pete sampras was still the king with agassi following behind. at the time when goran ivanisevic held the record for the fastest serve. i caught my first and last heineken open singapore at the singapore indoor stadium back in 1999, and that was my first and last time seeing mikael tillstrom play. and i stopped shortly after hingis retired. mainly because they don't broadcast it on regular tv now and i no longer have scv cable tv. this monopoly of the cable tv is depriving me of many sports. i've stopped watching basketball, soccer, baseball, tennis, rugby, figure skating, you name it, i've stopped watching it because i don't have scv at home anymore and i used to watch almost every sport broadcasted. a pity i won't be able to catch any of those actions now.

    at least there's a good news. i've secured my second job and will be starting work tomorrow! yeah! no more time wasting for me. muwahahahaha... i will survive~


    drugs + work + friend
    Wednesday, December 07, 2005 (9:58 PM)

    an individual wrote to the straits times today and he swore to boycott all products and services by singapore and refuse to visit singapore until the death penalty legislation is amended. he is one who is against the death penalty of nguyen van tuong stating that it is inhuman and costs much more to put him on parole than to let him off. i had thought it to be pretty myopic. no doubt, we frown at death penalties but i don't see why you should close a case because of its price. we are not being rational to use cost to justify a lighter sentence. how much of a child's play would it sound like should the verdict read, 'the appeal of nguyen van tuong is successful due to the expensive cost to send him to the gallows'.

    well, i got a call today from may who managed to get me a potential job offer and i accepted it. the last hurdle will be the company itself to decide if they would want to hire my services. *pray* if i manage to get this job as well, my ibanez rg1520g could be on the way!

    i got a surprise mail from a long-lost friend who hadn't contacted me since she left for seoul to treat a rare disease. i had thought she'd probably have forgotten me but surprisingly, she didn't. very glad to hear from her after so long. while doing this, i just got her mail again and coincidentally, she mentioned about the hanging of nguyen van tuong she heard over the news. she said that she heard that singapore's law is extremely strict and this brought to my mind of another foreign friend who thought that if you get caught spitting or littering in singapore, you will get jailed and caned. lol... i really wonder who gave them that idea.

    if you've been wondering why i have been reading the papers so much, it's because sis got dengue fever last week and has been on mc since then till now, so i have been grounded to look after her since no one else is at home. and because of that, i haven't been eating regularly. sometimes i really think i would be really successful in losing weight despite not exercising much nowadays. thankfully she is recovering and will probably be at work from friday. could be my chance to start gaining more weight. could be.


    the pianist + singaporean's sadism
    Monday, December 05, 2005 (3:54 PM)

    if you still have no clue about the melvyn tan saga, you really ought to start reading the papers now. not kelvin tan. project superstar is passe. we are now on the pianist issue, get over the singer controversy.

    these few weeks, we have seen how an issue of performing in singapore sparked such enormous speculation about defaulters of national service. no doubt $33k - including the $30k security bond - is probably less than peanuts for a renown pianist of melvyn tan's capacity (hmm... the 'peanuts' thing sounds familiar), we are showing the sadistic side of ourselves without us realising it. of course there are those who are fine with the fine that melvyn tan was slapped with, but there are those who unreservedly critisized such a 'small' punishment. we probably didn't regard the years he spent apart from his parents.

    so for those who are all for throwing melvyn tan in jail, let's analyse what we have to gain from his jail term? no doubt the fine could lead people to the assumption that they can get away with escaping ns easily. think about it again. if you can go overseas and bear to stay there till you are past 40 apart from your parents for a few decades and still think that it's 'easy', i'd say go ahead. if you realised, despite not gaining anything from melvyn tan's jail term, we seem to be all ready to rejoice if he should be sentenced to jail. sadism. not at its worst but in its best camouflage.

    now that all the uproar caused him to cancel his esplanade recital, not only have we gained nothing, we have lost something. i read the article in the straits times today, and thought that the writer offered pretty constructive ideas. i'm not going type it here, go read it yourself. then let's put all those ideas back on the scale and weigh. i'll give you an idea on how your life changes based on 3 groups of people.

    scenario #1: melvyn tan jailed.
    group #1: life goes on as usual.
    group #2: a short-term sadistic pleasure.
    group #3: lost a chance to catch piano recital by a great pianist.


    scenario #2: melvyn tan not jailed
    group #1: life goes on as usual.
    group #2: a short-term sadistic displeasure.

    group #3: gained a chance to catch piano recitals that could change the arts scene.

    which group do you think you belong to? i'm not here to judge but you know how much you have to gain from the capital punishment. and i'm sure we know how to choose between short-term effects and long-term good. when people say 's&m', it doesn't always mean that the recipient is a masochist.


    a common misconception + work

    the exams are finally over! just had my last paper on malay studies today. all the modernisation, collective representation, feudalism stuff are finally over. i just pray i don't have to retake it next semester. people seem to have the common misconception that i am smart. i have been really lazy since i stepped into uni and i'm not alone. 3 other poly friends have told me, without my asking, that they feel that they were more hardworking in poly. and because i've been spending so much time dealing with music stuff recently that i didn't spend enough time studying to score well. people who knows what i've been up to told me, 'aiya, you so smart, no need to study one la'. i think i'll be able to prove them wrong come this christmas when the results will be released. i'll be thankful if i manage to pass all my modules and i promise to work harder next semester. afterall, i'll be dealing more with my interest than the requirements like what has happened this sem. which idiot takes 5 exposure modules in the first semester? me.

    i received joolinda's email today regarding the job and i thought, 'wa... this time sure can earn a lot' because she sent me like over 2 weeks of assignments and i accepted immediately. but it turns out, she would just assign one of the 4 assignments to me. i'm only supposed to tell her, among the 4 assignments, which one i won't be able to do. i had thought i could start work next week but she assigned only 1 assignment to me which begins 2 weeks from now. well, better than no job.

    i'm thinking of selling all my cds for ibanez rg1520g. obviously selling all my cds at $10-12 each won't be enough for that but at least i'll be closer to it. but come to think of it, i don't really know if it's a wise idea. firstly, i don't take out my cds often, hence they are in really brand new condition that's why i wanna sell. on the other hand, i have no idea why i don't feel like selling it. haha... *nonsense*

    i've been thinking if i should take malay language next semester and i'm still thinking. thank all of you who didn't bother to share your opinions that i'm in such a dilemma. haha... but i'm ok with it. deciding it shouldn't take too long. i just need to see my cap for this semester. if it's below 3.0, which most probably will be, i guess i'd give up malay language - i need to try pull my socks up to pull my cap up next sem. anyway, i can learn bit by bit from friends and on the internet. saya still tak boleh cakap bahasa melayu.
