Turn of the Tide?

Good-fckin-bye 2008!

You have not been kind to me.

So here's a whiff of my ass!

Aloha 2009!

I trust a change in fortunes.

I sense a turn of the tide.

Please don't disappoint.

Yes? No? Maybe?

Living the life. Just going with the flow.
Of sweet uncertainties and kismets.
Everything seems so surreal. So unreal.
Expect nothing more, I tell myself.
'Cause all it takes is a push.
A push back into reality, to end the flow.

So maybe, just maybe.
Under the smiles.
Under the laughter.
Under the facade I've put up.
Nothing is really what it seems.


The embers seem to be glowing.
I should probably put 'em out.

What worries?

All the angst and uncertainty, forgotten.
Drowned out by the myriad of laughter, dance and booze.
Soaking in the fun, thinking it was the sun.
Friendship never tasted like Havana's rum.

And we partied like there was no tomorrow.

Just living out of habit.

A Sign to point me in the right direction would suffice.

I Feel

I just feel like a complete...

Oh bother.

Let's play with fire.

And pray that I don't get burnt.

The Perth-fect Trip

Thanks everyone for making it the Perth-fect get away!

I'll see you all again... someday.

Cheers!

Again

I just can't help it. 

I'm getting sucked into it again.

I just pray it won't spit me out.

Yet again.

This is what I'm talking about...

The Oh-So-Sweet Escape.

Konayuki

For my cousins. Enjoy.

That was sad.

You didn't even bother.

Guess it won't matter.

Now it don't matter.

When the going gets tough, the tough drink vodka.

Tough Break Kiddo

Life is like a play.

Someone has to be the loser.

And I fcking hate to be it.

Leaving On A Jet Plane

I need a breather.

I need the OZ air.

Oh yeah, here I come.

Viva La Vida

My take on Coldplay's Viva La Vida... Enjoy!

Lock & Load

Come on, steady now.

Take a deep breath,

Hold it right there.

Now, take a good aim.

Just right between my eyes.

Take your time.

And don't miss.

Wishful thinking.

How dumb.

I should just wish it away.

Uck this Shi-

'Mutha Uckers' by Flight of the Conchords. Enjoy!

Are You Into It?

Flight of the Conchords. Enjoy!

NDP `08

Happy National Day!

Back to 5 days of fixing vehicles.

I kinda miss NDP.

And I really miss the Monday offs.

Over & Out.

Loving Memory

If only letting go was that easy.

God, I miss You.

080806

Once bitten, twice shy.
Thrice bitten, fine,
I'll go take a hike.

Fuck. I can't make up my mind.

The Dark Knight

Just caught "The Dark Knight" and...

It was fantastic!

Heath Ledger was phenomenal as the Joker.

I'm so gonna watch it again.

Now... Let's put a smile on that face.

Now you see me.

Now you don't

Now you need me.

Now you don't.

Take a Peak

Spoiler Alert.

Big time.

There you go.

A sneak preview on what to expect from NDP'08.
The fireworks are gonna be awesome.

There's nothing compared to seeing it for yourselves.

So just come down to Esplanade every Saturday, around 8 o'clock,

to see where all our ERP, GST payments etc. have gone to.

Enjoy.

Puffy Eyes & Face Bites

Just went through some chemical defence training couple of days back. Yeah, and the experience was... "memorable". All of us were issued with the standard Individual Protective Equipment (IPE) which was outrageously disgusting. To sum it up, the suit smelt like something died in there and my face mask had spiders making their homes in it. Wonderful.

Well, at least the final day turned out to be pretty "fun". We were made to fall in at 0630 when the actual training started at 1000 due to some big time management cock up. Finally got dressed up, did our tests and prepared for the finale - the gas chamber. Whoaaaa... don't get too excited now. This ain't some cool sophisticated room that Hollywood has managed to create in our minds. Wait till you actually see it. Some said it looks like a guard house, or a hut. I'd like to call it a rubbish dump. No, seriously. It looks JUST like that from the outside. Nothing too fancy.

Alright. So we entered the "gas chamber", did 5 basic exercises (jumping jacks, squats, head rotations etc.), did a canister changing drill and last but not least, we had to remove our face masks and read out our IC number, rank and name. All of this in the midst of CS smoke aka tear gas. When the smoke hits you, you'll experience an instant high as the smoke starts biting at your skin. The second you exit the chamber with the wind blowing at you, yeah, you start to cry. The aftermath feels like a million sunburns on your face and neck and it feels like someone rubbed chili flakes in your eyes. Not too bad an experience I'd say.

Yeap, and I'm on 2 days medical leave now. Cheers.

I never asked for it to be this way.
So is it my fault now?
Is it my fault again?

Wake the F' Up

I should really stop fantasising.

Just wake the fck up from this dream,

And stop dreaming bout the Impossible.

...

It ain't gonna happen Ryan.

You know it.

But still I wish it.

I miss...

you.

Fall For You

Not too perfect... but yeah, at least I tried right? Enjoy.

Sight For Sore Eyes

Girls
Girls
& even more Girls.

Haha, we love eye candy, don't we boys?

NDP has been good to us so far.

Hate can be a positive emotion

When it forces you to better yourself.

Fix this

I need to get my ankle fixed. I need to fcking run again...



Thanks for the memories.

Soccer for a Breather

If you peeps still do not know... All my Thursdays and Saturdays will be burned thanks to NDP preperations. Spent the entire Saturday just sitting around watching the parade, sleeping...and yeah, basically fooling around. Tons of eye candy going around, and that's probably the best thing bout spending my entire day at Marina Bay.

Had Mok book the Cage for some late night soccer after. Started playing from 1 and we ended around 3ish. Damn good game I have to say. Never felt better. And never have I felt so much pain in my ankle before. Fck. Drove down to Geylang for some "sight-seeing" and frog porridge. Bloody awesome supper (I meant the porridge). And yeah, reached home around 5ish to crash at my front door. Perfect.

NDP is starting to get on my nerves...

Down & Out

I'm really feeling like f'ed up shit these few days.
Damned cough and flu ain't helping either.
And it's probably because of all the shit that's going on around me.

Where's the famed spark that lights me up?

Where's the sweet escape when I need one?

Take It To the Next Level

Got this DVD freebie while watchin the Singapore vs Uzbekistan match. Check it out, it's pretty cool. Ha.. at least there is somethin to be happy about.

3-7!

Went down to Singapore National Stadium after camp to catch the World Cup qualifiers match between Singapore and Uzbekistan. And boy... was I disappointed. First we had to queue for what seemed like eternity only to miss out on the first 6 goals. Next, we had to endure an entire second half of Uzbekistan diving. Seriously fcked up. And yeah.. singapore lost.
