Movie Day

Well... think the title sums it all up.

met up w jarrod to watch goal! in the afternoon.
quite a good movie i must say.
there were cameo appearances by alan shearer, david beckham, zidaine and raul.
the footages of the premiership players playing at real matches doesn't count.

was sheltered all the way to bt batok only to find dat it was raining. no umbrella,
so watched the 40 yr old virgin.
u know how they now use upcoming movie characters to remind u to switch off ur mobiles?
well... they showed this reminder featuring chicken little.

40 yr old virgin was very funny... there was one scene where andy(steve carell) was on a speed dating thingy.
and this woman he was talking to was very well-endowed and while chatting, she had a wardrobe accident.
and it was quite funny watching andy's expressions as he was trying to tell the lady subtlely dat she needed to adjust her dress.

the waxing scene was funny too... and the movie has its own feel-good touching moments...
watch it to find out more.

gona go bedoo now..
nitey people !!

A Quiet Day At Home

Duno why but kinda lost the steam to blog liao...
it's like there are moments i wana blog, but somehow am too lazy to do it...

but i'll still do so every now and then...
doubt i'll have the time to do it once i get my licence and rep code.

was home the whole day today.
was having this headache thru the whole day.
not helped by the fact dat my game was all screwy and refusing to work as it shd...
kinda driving me nuts liao...

lost count of the no of times i had uninstalled and re-installed it.
dang... maybe it's a sign dat i shdn't be playing it and lending it to justin.

went lunch w ms snooze yesterday @ sushi tei at hv.
it's amazing how the place has been there since god knows when...
and yesterday was the first time i've stepped into it.
somehow i'm always going to sakae. mayb coz got 10% w UOB card.
the food is great. even tho i have to pay a bit more, i think i'm willing to do so.
the food is worth the money. think sakae standard dropping liao...
the price is still the same but the quality like not so good...
seems like a good reason for me to go back to sushi tei... hehehe...

ms snooze handed me her wedding invite while over lunch...
while eating, we were like talking abt old times and all...
it's how fast time flies... lucky her can be 25 every year.
poor me gets reminded how OLD i am by the young peeps in church.
haha...

i get to bring a date for the wedding, but who to ask?
cant think of anyone. so if anyone is interested to go along w me, let me know.
ms snooze, i'll let u know once someone comments :)
hahaha... think she's prob too busy to get angry w me for 'advertising' for a partner to attend her wedding.

yup... gona go sleep soon i guess... and hope the headache goes away.
nitez.. and sweet dreams !

恐龙不知有 Ultraman

龙不知有 Ultraman (Adjective) :-
To describe someone who blindly goes into doing something without finding out the risks involved.
Can also be used to describe someone who is young and foolhardy.

the above quote was taken from my manager during meeting today. coz he was trying to describe the mentality of dis guy.
dun really know how to put the scenario in words.
but it was really funny.

think i wana enjoy abit more of the free time i have rite now before i get my licence and have to work my butt off...
so wish me luck, dear frens, on my new career!
dun think i wana look back and say dat i dun think i am suitable for this...
gota make this work !

$60 Taxi Ride

It was juz unbelievable...
paying for a taxi ride dat cost me %60 $60.

took a cab home, spend a few hours at home, bumming ard, left the house hours later,
only to find the taxi still there... went up to the driver and realized his meter was still running and had come up to abt $60.

smacked myself on the head for being so stupid...
den i realized it was all a dream...

how scary was dat?
think dat happened abt a couple of days ago... but wasn't in the mood to blog abt it.

was leaving the house dis morning for work, den heard the all-too-familiar sound of the engines of the E2C.
looked up and sure enough, there it was flying low in the sky.
somehow, even tho i've left the squadron, i still feel dat feeling of pride knowing dat it's my squardon dat's flying. somehow wish i was enjoying life as a specialist there, doing nothing and getting a 2k plus take home pay... but i'm not regretting leaving the airforce...

i think one of the most important things in life is to never regret.
i think there's no point. so wat if i regret leaving the force, there's nothing i can do, i've left it liao.
i only can look forward.

think the same goes for a relationship. but i think it's not so much a case of there's nothing i can do.
but rather, in every relationship, there's always something good in it... no matter how badly it turned out.
so there shd not be any reason for regrets in a relationship. unless of coz i guess it can happen where u get kinda "conned" into thinking the guy/girl was an angel through his/her deceptive behaviour.
but looking on the bright side, it's also a lesson in finding out abt the other person more before committing yourself to a person in a relationship. but of coz we'll never wat's to happen.
sometimes i guess we juz have to trust and hope dat the other person is not some wolf in sheep clothing.

had dinner w justin and his mum. have not seen her in a long time and i guess it was good to see her after such a long time. while over dinner, justin was talking abt finding another gf once i've gotten over tmg.
i said i'm in no hurry. if i meet another girl, so be it. and if i don't, it doesn't matter either...

but while walking home from bt batok central, i was juz wondering to myself...
if u've experienced the joys of being in a relationship, the wonders of having someone special to love and to hold, to cry to in times of sadness and to laugh with in times of happiness,
will you be able to live the life of singlehood once more? i think no matter how close ur good frens are to you,
they can never replace the position of a bf/gf. dat's how i feel...

occasionally, i wonder to myself if i shd give tmg a call and ask her to give us another try...
but almost immediately i tell myself off, dat i shd not think so much abt the past liao...
wat's past is past. and there's no bringing it back. but i juz have only the memories to cherish and to remember this wonderful relationship by.

i wonder if i can ever find another girl like her...

life's full of uncertainties and i sure as hell dun like it at the moment...
a couple of uncertainties in ur life is fine once in a while.
but not lots of uncertainties all at the same time...

oh well... gota sleep liao...
nite nite... sweet dreams.. i love you.
