Thoughts of the Day: 02/01/2005

Rising Korean actress Lee Eun-ju, 25, who starred in one of the highest-grossing movies in South Korea's history, has died, leaving a suicide note scrawled in blood.
She had apparently hanged herself with a necktie in a dressing room yesterday.
Lee starred in the hit movie Taeguki, and had been battling depression, her family told Korean media.
She left a suicide note scrawled in blood, in which she wrote "Mom, I am sorry and I love you," police said.
She suffered a bout of mental illness after performing nude scenes for her role as a sultry jazz singer in the noir Korean crime movie The Scarlet Letter, her family said.
The movie was selected as the closing film last year at one of the biggest film events in Asia, the Pusan International Film Festival.
Lee's managers said the movie had nothing to do with her suicide.
Lee is best known for her role in Taeguki, which can be translated as "National Flag". The movie, about brothers who are forced to fight in the Korean War, set an opening-day box office record in Korea and made the rounds of the international circuit.
Lee was considered a rising star in the South Korean movie industry, one of the hottest in Asia.
She scored her first major role in the 2000 movie Oh! Soo-jung and had graduated from Danguk University a few days before she was found dead.

How far would you go to look like a celebrity? Nose job here? Nip and tuck there? well.... Welcome to one of MTV's lesser known programmes called "I want a Famous Face " The people you are about to meet went that far and beyond. And they have endured painful and sometimes risky reconstructive surgery ... just to look like their favourite celebrity....

U have twins who wanna look like Brad Pitt, a girl who becomes Britney Spears, and today, i saw a girl who wanted to become Pamela Anderson and be the next Playboy's Playmate..... and next week the show will focus on a transexual who wanna be Jennifer Lopez......
Maybe u think that plastic surgery is no big deal, and is oni as painful & disgusting as a guy circumcising his "bro"... but omg......... i saw the video of the surgery, where they actually

1. Cut up the gal's breasts and insert the inplants by hand (yes, the whole hand went into the breats.. )
2. Cut open the cheekbones to somehow readjust it or something...
3. Peel open the lips... just to "pump air" and make it more pouty..
4. and many many more..........

Trust me.... after seeing those videos, u will definitely look @ plastic surgery in a different light.... hmmm... anyway, did i tell u Wong Li Lin had breast implants too ? (psst, my sis' friend was the doctor who operated on her! serious!!! )

Truth of the Day : If i had won the Toto on thur... maybe i would have plastic surgery to diminish my bowgy eyes and also change my face to be like Aaron Kwok!

Venue : 10-dollar KTV @ Chinatown
Date / Time : 18.2.05 / 2200hrs

My voice is getting hoarse, and my body is aching (esp my ass), but last nite was another of those memorable KTV nites... It was another all-guys event, but then, i believe it was why , all of us could realli heck care and sing all we want, without giving a damn about anything else!! haha... its been a long time since we sang together, and oh man... other than singing my fav Jordan Chan song, i also get to sing alot more songs this time.. and of cos, how can i ever leave out the catchy song " One Nite in Beijing" !! haha, to be honest, i think i sang great, although of cos, oni the great Alex aka King of Pirated Songs can sing much better..... :P

Other than singing, there was oso alot of uncensored stuff going on in the dark room, and i have the pics to prove it! CK, i have an increasing suspicion that u have the same interests as Del!! hahaha, anyway, ever since i am approaching my MID-TWENTIES, my body has been failing me time and time again..... i mean, can u believe that i actualli got cramps in my ass ?!?!?! OMG, looks like i need to go for those Keep-Fit regimes again..... haiz...

Oh yeah, i realli think that this KTV is worth checking out, cos it is cheap, the equipment is new, there's free flow of drinks... and even a free bowl of Shark's Fin soup!! haha... although i do have one complain... looks like all the English songs are pirated ones, cos none of them is original.....

Today is Feb 15th, and one day has passed since the dreaded V-Day..... was reading Kin Sun's blog just now, and i am glad that his date went v well and smoothly... But hey, i tot it was supposed to be a SHORT dinner and that she was meeting her friends later ?? how come it turned out that u actualli get to send her home huh ??? haha, but anyway, well done man!

Looks like very soon.... another guy is throwing away the Singlehood Tag.... :P

But as for me.... nothing much happened yesterday..... but i dunno why, i was feeling extremely moody and tired... maybe it was lack of sleep, or maybe it was due to too much bowling recently... but i guess... it's because i know she was with someon else....... So what to do..... i went home, did my usual stuff..... and slept for a whopping 12 hours again.............

Tonight i am absolutely drained out........ as it was the nite that i faced my greatest challenge so far.... well, at least ever since i became the A***T of the gang......... as CK, the man whom i worshipped oni so recently, and someone whom i even praised infront of the rest of the gang........ he...... he.......he........

ACTUALLY CHALLENGED ME IN BOWLING ?!?!?! and he even said that he wants... and WILL WIN me ?!?!?!

Initially i treated it as a joke, and even played down any claims that he would even come close... but man..... i was sooo wrong........
In the end, the gang and i played 3 games each, and the challenge was if CK wins me in any 1 game... i would "Jia Peng" immediately.. ( outsiders, dun bother to ask or think wtf it means.. cos i WONT SAY!! ) ......... and in the end...

i was extremely lucky to win all 3 games with a total score of 448...whereas CK was very close @ 403.. but it was in the very last frame of the very last game... that i proved my worth!!

i was trailing CK by a whopping 20 points... and it was my last frame... lucky Dan perfomed some mind game on CK ... den i managed to throw 2 strikes in the last frame.. followed by a 5-pointer.. to win by the narrowest of margins... phew.... and so i kept my position as the A***T...

But the highlight of the game was when KS broke the 2-yr record of Daniel's highest score ever... he scored 212 with 6 strikes in a row.... cancelling Dan's previous record of 201.... whereas Dan continued his downfall with a regular score of just hitting 100 points.. hehehhe

Scores of the Day :

Jeremy : 462
Derek : 448
Kin Sun : 437
Richard CK : 403
Daniel : 356 ( omg! but anyway he claimed to have found the G-spot of Bowling.. so we will see.. )

The winner even won a slingbag which was given free by the bowling centre, but in the end, KS took it... will post the pics later........

Damn... i am so lucky today.......... :P

Morale of the Story : Never underestimate ur opponents, cos u may live to regret it.. well, at least i almost did!! LoL

Finally... my dear buddy Mr Chan Kin Sun has finally got his own blog!!!! ... well, as mentioned for the umpteenth time... he is one guy whom i have known for a whopping 11 years... yup, he is an integral part of our 11-years series gang of friends... and is a person whom i never regret knowing... he is crappy, intelligent and sometimes his words can be very thought-provoking.... well, i wont say more... take a look at his blog.. and u will be impressed...

Last Sun the gang and i went to Ubin again... and initially around 10 people would be coming.. but one by one, each of them had something on and couldnt make it. In the end, oni the 6 of us went, inc KS's friend, Ismelin. To be honest, we were quite dissappointed with Suxian, as she was supposed to join us, but couldn't make it at the VERY LAST MIN. I mean, just 15min before the meeting time, she even said that she would meet us @ Changi Village directly (She lives in Tampines..).. but then, when we reached there.. she suddenly said that she is not joining us liao... Her exact msg was :

"Sorry i am not joining u guys liao. Was actually not feeling well today. Besides, i also had alot of things to do today"

To be honest, surely she could have let us know earlier rite ? I mean, even when we asked Ismelin about this, she also said that it was a lame excuse. And to be honest, they have no idea how much effort we put in for this thing.. And to think that we were actually commending Suxian, for giving her word so soon, and even though her friend was not comin, she still said she would come... oh man........

and oso ST, another person who "fly aeroplane" at the last moment......

Anyway, we still enjoyed ourselves, and i gotta admit, Ismelin is good!! she was always ahead of us cycling, and she never realli perspire or was seen catching her breath... haha.. omg.. damn, i realli need to build up my stamina and strength liao!! :P

Lastly, i realised that the gang and i should be PI ( Private Investigators ) cos we realised that even by crapping, we can also uncover some realli deep secrets!!! haha, i shan't elaborate more, cos if not, CK will surely kill me and Daniel!!! lol
