You can never grow too old for LEGO.I'm going to have a toy room with all the toys i want. and my children won't be allowed in until they're like 18.



Miss you

i know

i think i have this weird thing (i won't say ability) to somehow know things about people that they would think i don't. especially if they are trying to hide it... not like i'm a psychic or something but it's just a funny feeling when i realise what that person is trying to do. maybe i'm jumping to conclusions, of course there have been times where i was wrong but what about the times when i was right?

and i am pissed now... i think i just lost the attitude of doing a good deed if i was able to. somehow, i don't see a point anymore. why do a good deed for someone if they aren't even going to recognise it? is it worth being taken for granted all the time just because you have a good heart? what's the point in doing something nice for someone when they won't even know you had a hand in it. i know one of the greatest pleasures is doing something nice for someone without the intention of being found out... like being selfless and crap like that... but i think i've had enough of this shit. should i become a selfish ass? doesn't that make me someone i already hate? how can you keep on giving when nothing comes back your way (two hands to clap thingy)? should i just care less from now on?

maybe i already do...

Franz Ferdinand

days are passing too fast
23 days to first paper
i love watching house
it seems that yesterday was just monday
i should be panicking but i still am taking my studies too lightly
do not order roast chicken spaghetti from NYDC
i liked the sweet sour pork from the arts canteen
oktoberfest was worth the oktoberfast
learnt how to peel prawns with chopsticks/fork and knife
"obtained" an erdingers cuporsomething
thirsty
chinamen on my floor seem to have taken a protest against the toilets
peeing all over the toilet bowls and refusing to use the showers
i dread using the toilet.
Franz Ferdinand is goooooood

So if you're lonely,
You know I'm here waiting for you.
I'm just a cross-hair;
I'm just a shot away from you,
And if you leave here,
You leave me broken; shattered I lie.
I'm just a cross-hair,
I'm just a shot then we can die.
Aa-aa-aaaah.
I know I won’t be leaving here
With you.

I say, "Don't you know?"
You say, "You don't know."
I say, "Take me out."

I say, "You don't show.
"Don't move time is slow,"
I say, "Take me out."

I say, "You don't know."
You say, "You don't go."
I say, "Take me out."

If I move this could die,
Eyes move this could die;
I want you to take me out.

I know I won't be leaving here (with you).
I know I won't be leaving here.
I know I won't be leaving here (with you).
I know I won't be leaving here
With you.

I say, "Don't you know?"
You say, "You don't know."
I say, "Take me out."

If I wane this could die,
I wait this could die;
I want you to take me out.

If I move this could die,
Eyes move this can die;
Come on; take me out.

I know I won't be leaving here.(with you)
I know I won't be leaving here.
I know I won't be leaving here.(with you)
I know I won't be leaving here.
With you.

American History X

wow... finally got to watch this movie.

"Seth: Who do you hate, Danny?
Danny Vinyard: I hate anyone that isn't white Protestant.
Seth: Why?
Danny Vinyard: They're a burden to the advancement of the white race. Some of them are all right, I guess...
Seth: None of 'em are fucking all right, Danny, OK?"


Some trivia:

This film uses the word "fuck" 205 times.

Edward Norton gained 30 pounds of muscle for his role.

Seth wears a shirt during the basketball game featuring the number 88. This is a naziskin code for HH, or "Heil Hitler," H being the 8th letter of the alphabet. It also refers to a set of 88 precepts written by the neo-nazi leader David Lane. The 88 precepts are rules and concepts that all White Supremacists lived by



I see you're in pain man, maybe a kerb sandwhich may help. ouch...



I should have worn a shirt, they're getting me for indecent exposure!!


well, i think this movie had a really sad ending. things were looking like they were going to change for the better but i guess sometimes your past mistakes not only hurt yourself but your loved ones too. so here's a quote that i found quite meaningful to all the angry people out there

"Danny Vinyard: So I guess this is where I tell you what I learned - my conclusion, right? Well, my conclusion is: Hate is baggage. Life's too short to be pissed off all the time. It's just not worth it. Derek says it's always good to end a paper with a quote. He says someone else has already said it best. So if you can't top it, steal from them and go out strong. So I picked a guy I thought you'd like.

'We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.' "- from the closing words of Abraham Lincoln's first Inaugural Address in 1861.

"Anything else?"



"Nope"

Fantastic saturday night out. Watched 40 yr old virgin which was funny, drove home from borders to simei in 12mins... :)

now to catch up on my 8 assignments.
physics tutorial 4 and 5
statics tutorial 4
math tutorial 6, 7, 8, and 9
statics online tutorial x 2
physics online tutorial x 2

hmm, that's 11 actually... and 30 days to first paper... i can do it! wish me luck. write up on new ipod will be out soon. and dinesh, mines a 3g ipod thank you very much... hahaha

it's been a long week. i guess i've been too "busy" to do any updates, but nothing much has been going on. trying unsuccesfully to catch up with my work. still a long way to go. actually on 36 days to exams. not looking good. well, watched GOAL on saturday. it's quite an ok movie though predictable towards the end. haha, i wonder who was going to score the winning goal. watched the england match and was hoping so badly that they would lose. it would be quite funny for them to not qualify for the world cup. haha.

well, i just woke up so actually i don't feel like blogging. i guess i'll take a short break from this or update some other time.

my undoing

i've had a really up and down weekend..., or week that is... gillian-reuben relations really took a beating this time but things should be back on track. haha. Sg s11er's kinda know what i'm talking about. saturday cycling was fun. although it didn't seem as tiring as the last time. but i guess i was more pissed off at the lousy bicycle... stupid lousy piece of junk, no wonder they were going only for $4 an hour. next time, just spend a dollar more and you get a better bike. oh, and niron and pam were 45 mins late.

which brings me to the topic of people being late. Ok, it's something i just cannot really understand. Someone sets the timing that we'll meet for dinner/activity. How difficult can it be to make that time unless you had some other activity at home/sch. And if you did, we know you're going to be coming later so that's ok. But to the others who are never early, does it hurt to leave your house earlier? are you so selfish that you have to make others wait while you slack at home and call me to find out who is there already? it's very inconsiderate to be late especially if you were coming from home and had nothing to do. Is it so hard to even try to be early? do you have any sense of how long it takes to travel around singapore? here's reuben's guide to travelling around singapore

Time allowances you should give yourself when meeting others.
30 mins to get changed
15 mins to actually get out of the house
15-20 mins waiting for bus/mrt
45 mins travel time to ANYWHERE IN SINGAPORE by taking mrt
45 mins bus ride for easties to east coast from anywhere?
45 mins MAX drive to anywhere in singapore incl finding parking space if you travel at 100km/h on the expressway

so total travelling time would be comfortably set at 90 mins? so if people say we're meeting at 5pm, do you want me to call you at 330 to tell you to go and fucking shower? and then call you again at 4pm to find out if you've left your house?

put yourself in my shoes. i try my very best to make the timings set because it is only polite. I can say that if i'm not the first person there, i most probably would be among the first 5 (incl Siva, Justin and people who were in the area anyway). So i call you guys and never fail to find out that you're going to be 30 mins late. Is it my fault that i am able to be punctual but you fuckers always have to take your own fucking sweet time and show up late. Fashionably late my left arse as prash would say. What's so fashionable about being late you tell me. Would it hurt for you to be early in the first place? Even if you were late by like 15 mins, that's not any problem. Sometimes things just screw up. But if you tell me you were late because 30 mins before the agreed meeting time you had just left your house, it's just being fucking irresponsible. is it so wrong that you have to wait for others? are you that important that others have to always wait for you?

arrgh... stupid late people.

ah yes, my undoing... i just totally wasted my last 4 days. Thurs to sunday. Basically, i have an online tutorial due tomorrow, some part of my project due, about 6 lectures behind in physics, 2 tutorials and 3 chapters behind in math and 1 tutorial behind for my statics module. and it's all because of my laziness to get any work done. and the freaky thing is that i know that i'm lazy and that i should be doing work but i just can't seem to get myself to start. and it's getting hard to carry on. mid term results have come out and i'm sure they're not a good representation of what i actually know. Not like i did fantastically well, but i know myself and that i actually know less than what the scores reflect. I got a "satisfactory" for statics, 8/15 for physics and i haven't really checked my math results yet. But at the rate i'm going, the test at the end of the sem are going to look bad. Yes! I know that i have to start working hard, but i just don't want to! sigh... I really have to start working hard from next week onwards. A lot of catching up for physics and math.

also, i would like to give some advise to a good friend of mine whom i hope reads this blog. i find your actions very disturbing. the way you're acting is sending the wrong signals to the other party and to those around you. do NOT overstep your boundary and cause trouble for others. either you're a really sneaky bastard or you are really dumb.

so many other things to write about... but i'll leave it for another day
