Last night was the last Bowling Championship of 2004.. and Ah niu, Pai Gu, Jiak Nor-mee and me were involved in the most intense bowling ever..... we had 2 individual games each, of which Nor-mee and me won one game each... but that was only the appetiser... the main event was actaully the Team game.. in which Ah niu and Pai Gu were in one team, whereas Nor-mee and me teamed up once again...

So far, in all previous team events, i and Nor-Mee had lost all of them.. but this time, it's different...

We played 3 games........

and we WON all 3!!!!

not only that.. we actually thrashed Ah Niu & Pai Gu by a whopping 191 points!!!!! hahaha, i have finally taken my revenge... it has been a long time, but it is definitely worth the wait.... hehe, and as usual, i went to the counter to borrow a trophy from the Uncle, to take a championship photo of both Jiak Nor-Mee & me!!!!

WHAHAHAHAHAHAHhahahahhaha..... at least this lousy 2004 has ended on a happier note...

Now i just hope that i can "bribe" the guard at my office... so that later my friends can come to my office on the 27th floor.. and countdown with me!!!! (damn, why must i work till 12am... especially on New Year's eve.... haiz... )

This year is realli getting from bad to worse... to being the WORST year ever!!!!! Was attending one briefing held by a LTA officer just now... and found out that Boon Lay MRT is going to have an extension by building 2 new MRT stations!!!!!

Well, maybe u think there is nothing wrong... but my flat is situated right behind the multi-storey carpark, which is at the point where the MRT track cuts off... so, in other words, i will not only be :

1. Hearing the sounds of Airplanes flying all over our heads... EVERY MORNING
2. Smelling the incredibly strong Chocolate smell that is emitted from the nearby factories... EVERY NIGHT
3. But also have to endure the noise that is from the construction of the MRT stations... EVERY DAY

wah lau eh.......... the project is starting in mid-2005... and is slated for completion in........ 2009 ?!?!?!?!?

AAAaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

Anyway, at least going to the Isetan private sale on tue was great and sort of cheered me up a little ... cos i got to buy some clothings @ a great bargain.. haha, all thanks to Victorine!!!! and i thought i was going to a public sale instead of a private one.. cos it was damn bloody packed!!

Morale of the Story : If u are feeling down and out... what do u do ? GO SHOPPING lah!!!

Last week, Daniel, Jeremy and me were accompanying Grandmaster to buy a special gift... for a gal that he had a liking for.. well it was actually a Carebear that he was eyeing for, and we scouted for a long time to find it.. in the end, we ended up @ a shop in Far East Plaza, which was selling those bears... hmm, it wasn't easy to find them, since these carebears were specially imported by the boss, and even other shops ( the one @ Cineleisure ) were buying from them... initially, Grandmaster was the ONLY one buying the bear... but in the end..

The rest of us also bought one bear each !!!! (omg... realli can't believe it)

haha, initially i was thinking that since it was so difficult to find such things, and that each bear represents something meaningful, so i actually helped the shop owner to pyscho Daniel and Jeremy to buy one carebear too!! haha, guess i should be a salesman .. :P

1. Daniel bought one called the "Secret Bear"

2. Jeremy & Grandmaster bought the "Harmony Bear"

For me, i bought one carebear called the "Proud Heart Cat", which represents that the person is a perfectionist, with a pure heart and is loving and treats friends very well.... well, the moment i saw the description, it reminds me of the gal i liked...cos it realli suits her alot... just hope that one day, i can pass this bear (a cat, actually) to her........

Just when this year is about to come to an end, misfortune again never fails to haunt me again.... now my dear PC has kanna a "Terminal" illness that cannot be cured... and it looks like it is dying anytime soon ... now i have to find a new "wife" liao... haiz... why is 2004 such a Farking lousy year ?!?!?!? ... looks like the Chinese horoscope is spot-on...

This "Monkey" year is realli not the year for us "monkeys", cos according to the horoscope, some bloody monkey god actualli offended another bloody god, so the bad luck is passed to those born in the bloody "Monkey" year... to bloody people like me........... haiz ...

WAH LAU EH!!!!!!!!!!!! realli wah lau man.......

Now i just hope that 2005 aka the "Chicken" year ( hehehe ) will be a better year for me ........

*crossing my fingers*

Yesterday was another of those long-awaited soccer matches that our team had..... with the help of guest players like Teck Lip, Alan, and Charlie.......... we played @ NTU field.... and prior to that, there were some major cock-ups..... resulting in the whole bunch of us smsing to other players to change the venue... while watching "National Treasure" @ Cineleisure... lucky we were highly trained in such a way, that we did not disturb anyone in the cinema.... hehe

Anyway, we still had our match...... and oh my.... the scoreline realli flattered us.....

We won 8-0..

But to be honest, there was nothing to be proud of..... cos the opposition were very young and they even had a couple of kids in their side... and i honestly feel that we did not play well at all... and the match was actually the best opportunity for us to improve our passing, and teamwork... but ..... haiz..... nevermind..

Anyway, i admit National Treasure is good show, with an impressive plot, and good opening.. but still....... i dint realli enjoy the show alot........ cos i just feel that the whole show is quite monotomous without any real surprises or twists, and i feel that the bad guys should be even BADDER.. (hmm, maybe i shld act as the bad guy instead!! at least i am 36% evil!! )

But overall, it is still a good show, plus Nicholas Cage is in it....... although common, surely the National Treasure in the show should be Diane Kruger man!!!!!!! she is simply gorgeous and beautiful!! and she is definitely more valuable than all those gold and treasure combined!!! lol

I have seen and read about the atrocities that are committed by the bloody terrorists..... and like all the rest of the sensible people here, i too despise and condemn the acts of the terrorists in Iraq... but it does not change the fact that i still respect and admire Islam..... why ? Reasons are simple:

1. I knw many muslims personally, and trust me, they are the most honest, decent and peace-loving people around, same as the rest of us here

2. Like what many muslims had tried to explain so tirelessly before, Islam DO CONDEMN acts of terrorism.... maybe for people who think otherwise, read up the Quran first..

3. Some of you keep saying that Muslims need to be more vocal in opposing the terror acts... well, they do voice out, just maybe you did not happen to know. They just do not publish their thoughts in the media..

4. The terrorists keep saying that they are carrying out God's orders.. but it's so obvious that they are using their religion as excuses to carry out the terror acts.. They are trying to mislead other naive muslims and the rest of the World to think that muslims are violent.. which is NOT TRUE at all..

Food for Thought : If one day, a group of people happen to go around killing the innocent, and they happened to be christians, and claimed that they are carrying out God's will.. should we believe them & thus condemn Christianity ?? obviously no right ?

Anyway, i am a free-thinker, and i truly believe that all religions support peace, not violence..... and lastly, hope that we should all learn to understand and empathise with one another.. only then, can peace really prevail....... just too bad that Islam is badly misunderstood right now..

Condemn the terrorists, not the religion

Peace

Just when i thought that the worst stuff have passed ..... i was hit by another one....... well, my colleague cum friend, Del's mum....... was found to have colon cancer......... and it'z not known exactly how serious it is yet....... now i just hope it's still in the early stage.......

It was heart-breaking...... when i saw him cry while talking to his mum over the phone today......now i just hope that he can learn to be stronger...... i am sure his mum wouldn't want to see him so depressed.................


This is definitely the worst year so far....... and it had to be this bloody monkey year..... looks like the chinese horoscope was spot-on............... guess i need to go pray or something......

I finally watched the thai horror movie, "Shutter"..... yup, it sure is scary, much scarier than "The Ring"..... anyway, i watched it with Daniel last night @ GV, and itz kinda weird, cos firstly i watched the "Incredibles" with him, den now a horror movie........ haha, wat next ? A Love movie ?? initially i suggested watching "Alexander", but Dan doesnt like the actor, and the timing was way too late....... and he had to visit his Grandfather at the hospital the next morning........ but when i woke up this morning.........

Daniel's Grandfather had just passed away............

It was very sad, cos he just had a heart bypass operation..... and all of us though he would be recovering v soon........ i even asked Daniel, whether he missed the fruits and bread that his Granddad bought for him all the time, before he was in hospital....... and now, this thing happened........

Later tonight i will go to acc Daniel, while the rest of the gang and i will visit him again tomorrow....... damn, i need to work on Sun morning, if not i can acc him till dawn.......



Morale of the Day : Remember that your family cannot be there for u forever....... so treasure them.... dun live to regret.......

Everytime i attend a wedding dinner, it's always for a relative who is getting married, and that the invitation was sent to my family, and i just followed along.....but this time, it's different........

i received an invitation to go to a wedding dinner ...... which was for my ex-poly friend, Sarah...... oh man, guess i felt kinda weird, to go along, sit with other friends whom i have not heard from for a long time..... People like Linda, Ulee, Michelle, and of course, my dear dear spastic friend, Miss Emmeline Siak..... haha, but overall, i enjoyed this "new" experience, and i again wish Sarah and her new husband all the best and may they stay happy together always....

Damn...... i am getting old liao.........

Anyway, after the dinner, Michelle, Emma, Ulee and i went to New Asia, which was located on the 70th floor of Swissotel Stamford..... oh my, simply luv the atmosphere, the music, and the crowd...... and of course the scenery.... i have not had such fun for a long long time.. even Mambo can't compare to it... and all along, i thought that it would be very ex to go there..... but now i knw that the charges are like wat the normal pubs and discos charge..... and oh yeah, the cover charge of $20 is only applicable on weekends! in other words, last night i got in FREE!!! haha, sorry, i am too sua ku.............

and on an even happier note.......


MY BLOODY EXAMS ARE OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! haha, now itz time to let my brain cells rest and time to play play play...... but shit, i still got 2 more modules to go...... and the new lesson starts...... next tuesday ?!?!?! WTF!!!!
