i've never heard anyone liking his hair after a haircut. like really no one before.
maybe it's because when you walk into the salon, you have only one ideal hairstyle in mind and wish to walk out with it on your head, however to the hairdresses / barber, there are 10000000000 million styles in the world and it ain't easy for him to guess which is the one you want on your head. so he gives you something similar, but you don't like it cause it's not THAT one.

The Story of My Uneventful Day
above: Grandmaster Ip Man & Donnie Yen playing the role of the manso anyway, Weiwen spent last night here, since he wasn't too comfortable sleeping at Damian's chalet cause they weren't exactly going to sleep haha, so he headed here just nice on the last 76 bus to my place (which, if you want to know, broke down 1 stop before my house bus stop).
so he had to wake up at 10am to go for choir in school, and because of that i used it as an excuse not to go to school for frisbee at 9:30am but sleep in til Weiwen had to leave. then upon his departure, my uneventful day began. played the remaining of my 200+ poker chips away on FB before making my own lunch which i was contented with (both the food and myself) and watched Ip Man while eating them. Ip Man was so awesome til i feel like learning Wing Chun when i have the time. haha i don't know how serious am i on that but one day i can thrash your balls like Ip Man then you'll know i'm serious.
foolishly napped my time away from 3-5 after that, before going for guitar lesson. now here comes the event which made my uneventful day qualified to become a story.
after guitar lesson, i thought of a song which i then wanted to hear very badly. it was Green Grass and High Tides by the Outlaws so i plugged my iPod in on the way to the bus stop and listened to the first 30 secs of it? until i saw Shawn Lau. so i talked to him til we got on the 57 and talked to him til we got off at the same bus stop which was his house and the bus stop for me to change bus. meeting him wasn't a bad idea, other than the fact that it prevented me from hearing the song which popped up in my head and made me want to hear. SO, i took out my iPod and tuned in to the same song, and listened to the first 2 mins of it (song is 10 mins) til my 73 came.
BUT upon getting onto the bus, i met Mingxuan so i plugged out the earphones and we began chatting about life and hockey. i knew i would only drop 3 stops after him so no point holding onto the iPod so i kept it. chatted, then dropped and walked home normally like a normal poor boy in shorts shirt slippers with no music player and a noob 3120 Nokia handphone. got home, AND I STILL HAVEN'T HEARD MY SONG IN FULL. but nevermind i'm having dinner which tastes nice so i'm glad hoho.

6.50$ Lan day
hit neither OPA nor school for both hockey and frisbee cause when i woke up at 7:30am, there were constant rumblings in my tummy, repeated wet fart releases as well as unstoppable urges to lao sai in the toilet. however they cleared off when it was about 12 and i felt okay again. guess nothing would have happened to me if i had gone for training, damn. was just afraid of the possibility that i shit in my pants when i go out of control (of my own anal ring) at training then i would be :$ (check what it is on msn).
so i stayed home to watch 2008's best Korean movie of the year - The Good, the Bad and the Weird which was inspired by 1966's The Good, the Bad and the Ugly which was an American blockbuster. the Korean version of it startled me at first cause the make of it looked expensive and the build up as well as the plot were interesting and not much of a letdown. however, the letdown came when i neared the end of the show, cause the ending sucked quite badly. you could hit http://www.dramaclick.com for that as well as other Asian movies and drama serials which was also where i watched the 2nd best Korean movie of last year - the Chaser. that one was better, imho.
anw, went to j8 at 1:30 to be half an hour late for lunch with Jiejing, Yunsong and En Hao but i chose to be late on purpose cause i was the only one with a Christian name. ok no i just hadn't finished my movie, but it doesn't matter cause they started without me anyway. we then went to Cat High to meet teachers cause it was just around the time when school ended. met up with Yuesheng, Zixiong, Toon Ee and i was still the only one with a Christian name. since that didn't piss me off, we went to play lan after chatting with old teachers.
played 6.50$ worth of LAN where Tedmond joined halfway, i know it ain't alot for some, but it also ain't the most i've ever played so shut up. it's the most in quite a long while. intended to play Left4Dead but since those dudes were afraid of zombies we didn't. no la it was because i was the only one with a Christian name thats why they decided to go against me. ok enough with the Christian name thing, it wasn't mentioned the whole day but i only thought of it when i began blogging this so it's all not true k. so we played a game of DotA, then a few games of Bf 2 before going back to 2 more games of DotA. haven't played in a long while, so not appearing last on the rank list is quite a blessing already (but hey that doesn't mean i wasn't second from the bottom, AND HEY IT DOESN'T MEAN I WAS ALSO OKAY) but we all had fun though cb Raiders put Left4Dead on the big screen projecting someone's game and tempted all of us. luckily we had to go so save that for another day. had dinner with zx ted and toons before heading home, where i am right now! forgot to get something small for Dad, shall wish him later haha damn.

All is quiet on New Year's Day
a very good morning to everybody (it's only 8am this Wednesday morning), i know it's not New Year's Day today, but i need to do what i'm supposed to do on New Year's Day - re-prioritize my life. that's cause i feel like i'm living a very fucked up life right now, with both the feelings that a) it won't matter if i live or die this very moment and b) i may actually die this very moment.
so here goes 10 WISHES/RESOLUTIONS OF THE NEW YEAR:
1. Do well (not very well cause well is enough) for A levels, which also means doing well and putting in effort for Gp, Physics, Math, Econs & Lit. Simply, just study hard.
2. Take care of myself and my health. That includes eating healthily, working out regularly and SLEEPING SUFFICIENTLY, changing the fact that i don't eat enough fruits and vegetables, don't give my all for trainings, PE or swims and runs, and only get a maximum of 5-6 hours of sleep on schooldays. To change that, here's what i'd do: read up on healthy living! then follow however much i can out of the healthy eating portion, give in my 100% for trainings and workouts and sleep 7-8 hours every schoolday, more on weekends. of course, all of these cannot be super possibly followed cause next year is A levels and A levels won't spare you no extra sleeping time, won't give you no more time for exercises when the A's draw near and so imma gotta take care of mahself pretty well the entire next year though it's gonna be hard niggah!
3. Play good hockey and get myself into first team AS A FORWARD. that means making full use of training time, maybe staying later after training with dudes like Nwahs Freddie or See Ler but most importantly and firstly, getting my basics right cause everything else builds from there.
4. Play better frisbee and hopefully play for the competition next year with the pro-er dudes who are currently in league or get myself up to Lester / Matthew See standard. To begin, i shall throw with somebody for a while before we play game!
5. Improve in guitar, and i won't be expecting much from this cause i hardly practice but since i'm wishing, i shall just hope i become better miraculously!
6. Take better photos.
7. Save more money, spend less on food, save more for stuff i wish to buy.
8. Treat friends & family better, sacrificing my time and energy to please them IF THEY DESERVE IT and not always care about myself first.
9. ok can't think of any more so what, get laid before the 7th of May?
10. i pray these all come true.
i guess the most important of it all would be to look after my health cause i don't want any diabetes or kidney failure or cancer or AIDS before i die and i don't wanna die til i have lived my life and i don't wanna have lived my life til i turn >80!
alright, have a nice day and have a happy and wishful new year!

Tuesday of the last week of holidays
i intended to study for the whole of this last week of holidays, when i occupied myself with stuff not pertaining to school work for the whole of yesterday (training, lan, movie) and caught a virus which has left me unable to do any form of work, much less play, for today as well.
luckily, i managed to sell my band concert ticket so won't be wasting my 12 bucks, and can just rest the remaining time of the day just like what i've done the entire morning + afternoon, sleep. also heard that Fred and Donna whom i was with are not feeling well too. Donna's down with fever and flu while Fred's just got flu and is now at Plaza Sing like a strong man (everyone will think he's a strong man but we know he's sick and trying to act strong hohoho).
so when will i ever get to start work? i really don't know, cause even if i'm healthy and 'pink as the bing on your cherry', i will still be slacking instead of studying i think. it's A levels next year so it's no child's play, but then again, we're all still children - so how can children handle such hardcore XXX stress? hahah.

like suddenly...
i haven't been here for a while, even though i'm not really busy.
there have been some things going on these few days, say the Bedtime Stories outing on Friday, the match with TP on Saturday, as well as quite a few random musings from a boy who can't really think. so there should be quite a lot of stuff to talk about. however, i am a lazy boy so no, i'm not going to talk about everything.
Bedtime Stories is a nice but stupid show.
lost the match against TP 3-1 and played like fuck, missing a lot of chances at goal.
tmr marks the last week of the school holidays, after which begins the most tormenting academic year of my life, sitting for the exam which is the hardest yet in my life, and probably the one which requires the most effort to do well for. so... it's time to start studying! gotta study this whole week in order to get myself ready for school, say do the Math & Econs hmwk to recap on topics while do shit for Physics since there ain't hmwk and teacher's gna change.
but there's trng tmr and i'm still finding something to do after tht so i guess studying can but won't start tmr. haha, have fun with your last week of holidays guys, after that it's time for the fucking last year.
one of my new year resolutions: read newspapers (can you believe that i don't read the papers)

HNY
NYE pals @ Brewerkz
and again. by putting this scandalous photo here, i ain't spreading shit cause it's alr all over fb.spent the night with awesome people at an awesome place doing awesome stuff. you know after lunch with Phelan, Fred & Gab, we were all slacking at my house and playing the World's Hardest Game where i discovered i'm not too bad a WHG gamer cause i got stuck at Level 24, with 1k plus deaths la. we were thinking of what to do at night over dinner at Srg Gardens Astons when Qing invited us to Brewerkz where his family would be counting down. so yeah give thanks to Brother Chan who allowed us to join his family, and we all went home to bathe change and met up at Clarke Quay at 11pm.
Clarke Quay was mad, it was crowded and noisy but you could sense the spirit of good fun, the atmosphere of people all hoping for a better year ahead, and so we made our way to Brewerkz where Brother Chan mercilessly ordered dispensers and dispensers of beer. i don't know what they call it but it looked like the huge water dispensers at office buildings and it was mad. so just chilled til the countdown where everyone made a lot of noise, and then we went to every table inside the brewery wishing people HNY, toasting them, shaking their hands. Mathias, Donna, Cynthia, some other friends Siyi & Ox joined us shortly so we just carried on chilling and downing booze before they went back to Attica which was where they came from, to dance. Bro Chan & Qing & family left so Phelan, Fred, Gab & i the supposed partyless losers gang stayed outside by the river to wait for the Attica gang to finish dancing. Phelan slept while we 3 chatted what was supposed to be a 'heart-to-heart' talk according to Freddie but was nothing much really haha.
when the Attica dudes came out, i thought we could go walk or grab a bite, but they sat down and began doing what we did 2 hours before, so i was damn bored, and quite sleepy on top of that too. when it hit 6, we walked over to Liang Court Macs in hope of a bite, but fuck! it was damn crowded so checked out the bus stop outside, and everyone went home while i didn't get my bite. haha the people who headed towards Tiong Bahru watched Cynthia eat la, but Bishan flenz all go home cbcbcb so i also go home sleep. the counting down, the wishing people, the booze high, the chilling by the river were all great times of yesterday night, and prolly stuff we would have to do less in the coming 2009 cause of cb A Levels. let's just make the best out of next year.
on the not so looking-towards-the-future side, everywhere was messed up yesterday, with litter found anywhere from roads to pavements to random places to sit (til i even caught instant noodle soup and beer on my jeans) so with that, i pity the cleaners (whom we saw starting work at around 5 while people were still lying around). oh with regards to people lying around, there were really people lying everywhere randomly from malays at bus stops to ang mohs at pavements or vice versa and you get what i mean, people anyhow sleep here sit there lie here stand there and just smoke drink chat and it all looked very fucked up but happy new year good luck next year so it's fine for last night i guess! haha.
maybe shall talk about resolutions someday, or reflections another someday, but for now here's what happened on 31/12/08-01/01/09! Cheers and once again, HNY!

the <3 Sutra
oh yeah, you might have known about my discovery of the song Give Thanks to Allah on the 25th of December (Chad told me, rather), but did you know about the song i found out on the 27th, yesterday? haha it's a Buddhist chant, the Heart Sutra and though i found it a little spooky (i still do, but to a smaller extent), i started to find it very calming and peaceful after a few listens.
these two songs started out as mild jokes, but they became very pleasing to my ears! haha, check them out too, the link for Give Thanks to Allah by Michael Jackson is somewhat several posts down, while these are two of the Heart Sutras:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-c9-XaA2f00
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciYO7mWq3Og&feature=related
i don't know if they're both the same song in different languages or just two completely different songs, but don't make fun okay!
oh i've been having diahorrea for the entire day starting 7am. X|

My Ambition (like a primary school essay, but with 18+ content)
"What's your ambition?" is a popular question from adults to kids in order to find out what they're thinking with regard to their future (and it also reflects their level of maturity cause answers like 'fireman' and 'accountant' differ greatly in level of reasoning.)
oh btw, my brother's ambition when he was around 5 or 6 was a fire engine. haha, random recollection.
and so today, i'm proud to say i have an ambition! it's not totally prospective and not based on how much i can earn, but what i like to do / feel like learning. and someone shares the ambition with me too, Qing! haha. it's owning a pub or bar (maybe club for him haha), where WE will help out with the bartending, serving EXOTIC drinks of exquisite novelty. then I (and hopefully my band if i get one by then haha) will be the houseband and provide our bar/pub/club with a variety of chill music, genres ranging from jazz to blues to country to alternative. then Qing and whatever crew he may have in the future will share the stage throughout the week providing dance entertainment! so it's like we co-own the pub/bar/club yet help out doing what we love, also allowing us to save cost hiring dudish helpers!
quite a random (and for some maybe even immature or unrealistic) thought but it's pretty well thought out for now huh, about the mix between interest and work. other details like design aren't usually important for such random thoughts. i don't daydream.
anyway, it was Yongwen's birthday yesterday, went down to give / show face. saw him drink power shots haha, Black Absinthe, Flaming Dr. Pepper and Waterfall, all quite hardcore yet very pleasing to the eye (preparation involved fire and colourful mixes of alcohol and other ingredients like milk or sugar). the whole event seemed like a 'de-virginization' of Yongwen's drinking life the moment he became legal haha, quite an eyeful. 3 shots of exotic drinks cost the dudes who paid for it over a hundred bucks and Yongwen was high, however, he wasn't wasted which obviously shows he ain't no virgin to begin with yesterday haha.
came home, slept at 4am and overslept frisbee this morning with Phelan & Gabriel & dudes. supposed to go town for photohunt with Nwahs & Gab & Pao til night but since Nwahs woke up with a fever, the whole thing was cancelled too haha, wasted but it's okay it will materialise some other time i'm sure. so Ww came over for a nap ._. til 7 where we went for dinner at j8 with Hx, Phelan & Shawn Lau at Food Junction where the food was funking ex and that's pretty much what you need to know about my life today.

Allah is Ghefor Allah is Rahim Allah is the one who loves the Mohsinin,
he is a creater, he is a sistainer and he is the one who has power over all.
well though Christmas this year wasn't all religious as it used to be for me in the past, it wasn't too bad cause of the meetings i had with family, relatives, friends and acquaintances for the past few hours. went over to Jj's house at around 9pm, before finding Tim, Zx, Toons, Ted, Ww, Dam & Elson at Tim's place and spent a short while there. Shawn & Russell came afterward too, but Hx, Phelan & I went back to Jj's house just when it hit around 12 midnight. spent the night at his place with ODAC dudes before zaozaozaoing at 7am on X'mas morning. went home to shower and nap for a while before going for 11am mass, then lunch at Auntie Agnes' place. napped again at home after lunch before going to Pao's house for dinner with Ww, Gabriel & Phelan. the food was good. but then again, food was good all the way since last night!
anyway, Merry Christmas to one and all, but as you may feel me just as i feel myself, this Christmas wasn't about giving or receiving for me - little present exchanges (i only bought gifts for houses i was going to, and my Grandmother), but more social interaction and that opened me up to a whole new meaning of Christmas. one that means that Christmas is not about gifts and possessions earnt, but more of awesome company and expanding social circles in times of joy. party! someday when i've got cash, the the ultimate X'mas of gifts & friends (& maybe even God) shall come!

how do you wash your ears?
an interesting thought while i was bathing today...
i only soap whatever is neck down (apart from pubic hair).
i only shampoo whatever is neck up (and pubic hair).
i only use facial wash on my face.
then what happen to the ears? to use body soap, shampoo or facial wash?
OR YOU DON'T WASH YOUR EARS EEEYER.
i use body soap most of the time.
tmr (and the day after) is quite complex a day. here's the plan:
2pm: Altar Boys' Committee Meeting (i don't know for what and what am i doing there)
3+/4pm: Pool w/ Chad, Josh, Terence, Daniel & extra buddies (that's prolly why i go for the meeting before this)
6+/7pm: Family X'mas Dinner
8+/9pm: Jj's House Party w/ 1t23, ODAC Dudes & Jj's Family (Tim's House halfway then come back) + Stayover
(next morning)
7am: Head Home for Wash Up + Rest
11am: X'mas Mass
12pm: Lunch @ Auntie Agnes' House w/ Relatives
ok have a happy Christmas guys!
today, went church in the morning for trng on X'mas day masses, then had lunch before gg over to VSEOW'S HOUSE FOR ROCKBAND HAHAHAHAH damn fun sia even tho it's just 3 ppl but we had fun nevertheless. went for dinner with her at Simpang aft tht - i had a thick and fat piece of Mutton Murtabak and couldn't finish it cause it was crazy. then met Nig at town for couple of drinks and chill time where we chatted from crazy shit to really theoretical and philosophical stuff acting like wise old bastard when we're just young naive fucks trying to be cool. so when we realised how lame we were we headed home but hey, i learnt alot from it, both of him and myself.
mabe i should have such act wise talks with everyone so i can learn more about everyone and also find out as much i can about myself til i know myself better than God but hey that's not possible so dream on.
ok now really, have a happy Christmas guys. don't get too drunk then too horny!

when a little delay puts you off so bad
this morning, i was supposed to run Mt. Rosie with Syam at 8:30am, but i overslept so he ran himself. then i was supposed to meet Gabriel and Phelan at 1pm for a swim but cause of rain in different parts of Sg at different times, we delayed it til 2:30 but mis-comm to stupid Gabriel and we met with him not knowing we were swimming. so we couldn't swim and went to play arcade and eat ice cream til Ww came.
when Ww came, we went to Queensway and Ikea where Phelan and Gab wanted to see shoes and Ww wanted to buy a showcase for his Star Wars figurine collection. that pretty much was my day which reduced many activities to none because of delay.
lesson learnt for me: don't oversleep.
lesson learnt for Gabriel: be smarter.

when you do something you don't really give a shit about, with extra enthusiasm
haven't posted photos in a while,so here's one, with the 'odd-one-out' theme :)
have you ever hung out with a friend you aren't really familiar with, yet because of boredom, attempt and successfully fill your time with a fruitful bonding person with that person?
many a times we do not care much about something, but because we have to do it (either come across it by chance or are forced to do it), we try to put in our best effort in order to make the most of the situation, and i met with that incident today, at a live soccer match.
the above may sound cliche but i really don't knw how else to say what i just did, especially in Singlish cause ah bengs don't have such thoughts. well anyway, you get my point and that's whats most important. i went to the Singapore / Vietnam AFF Suziki Cup 2008 Semi-Finals with Wee Seng, Clinton, Johan, Wen Bin, Hao Nam and CS today, and while i usually don't give two-shits (can't say one-shit cause i do, to a certain extent, give a shit about soccer) about the sport, i had the chance to catch the match at the National Stadium today for a nominal sum of 2$ so that pretty much bought my night.
now since soccer doesn't mean much to me, i would just watch the match then kthxbye guys and go to bed at home, but i was at the National Stadium, so suddenly from my two-shits about soccer, it became some twenty-shits cause of the atmosphere there. it's different from learning about it from your friends, reading the papers or watching it on tv cause through those mediums, you only learn what happened, and how it happened. bye bye to your friend, close the papers, switch off the tv and it's all over, nothing much.
however, when you actually experience the match live, you know WHY whatever happens, happens - why you cheer so enthusiastically, why the crowd reacts so vibrantly, why the players behave how they do. moreover, you can't just walk away from the match similar to the bo-chup way you would after watching it on tv, cause the outcome of the match determines your mood, as well as the others around you. you can't be glee when your country just lost and everyone around you is still furious about the game. thus, from being at the game, you actually involve yourself in a situation you seldom ever would, and therefore enjoy yourself in a way you would not usually do. so main point is, you will force yourself (though not really with alot of force) to enjoy the event you do not usually care about once you are put in the situation of not having any other choice other than to partake in it. sounds complicated? i just mean that it is different from what you normally experience when you take yourself a step further and involve yourself in what you usually only spectate. then, it's a whole new level for you even if you don't want it.
ok the above can be long and boring to you so please do not read it but if you're here, i guess you alr have, so too bad. anw, other than the enjoying myself even though i didn't really try to part, the match was pretty okay, not good cause Sg didn't win (0-1) due to poor form and fucking dirty Viets and not bad cause the spirit was awesome with everyone cheering for the same purpose. went for dinner before the match at Sumo House and then supper with a few of the lot after the match at some random coffee shop at Clarke Quay. thus, i just reached home and bathed only.
ok now what's for tmr? pretty much. run with Syam at 8:30am around Mt. Rosie, then lunch with nobody then swim with Gabriel after lunch. after that it's happy time with Gabriel and camera, most prolly with Ww at Ikea, so its cameratime with Ww & Gab @ Ikea. ok tmr's quite hectic so i'm going to carry many things with me to many places!

the inability to think for our parent's sakes and pockets
you buy what you need, that's what they used to say a long time ago when i shopped.
you buy what you like, that's what they used to say not so long ago.
you buy what you need, like and don't like also can, that's not what they say now though it's what my brother does.
i'm not jealous like he thinks i am (of course i will be a little jealous, where got brother see parents buy you 3X the amount of things than they bought for him will not jealous, it's just human), i'm just thinking on behalf of our parents and the shallower-than-before pockets they now have, but he just doesn't get it cause he's ignorant and selfish - 'why you complain so much, are you jealous?'
on top of buying 3 shirts, 2 jeans, 1 shorts and a bag on the Malaysia trip two days ago, he bought a new handphone which was quite really ugly but costs $198, may not be a lot to some, but can be considered quite a lot for a upgrade-your-plan phone. when i told him it was ugly, he said i again was jealous, but mother and sister said the same regarding the phone's looks haha. and he was supposed to pay for the phone himself but i think he's gonna keep quiet about it till dad doesn't bother collecting the money anymore.
i'm not grumbling about him here even though i don't like him pretty openly haha, but my point here is that with someone who spends like that and gives a shit attitude when you try to put a good point across doesn't deserve any sympathy or charity. but in fact deserves to be punished for whatever flaws he has cause he doesn't seem to change over time. he has to learn how to treasure what he has, and draw a fine line between what's needed and what's not. by the way, my parents only reprimand him for whatever shit he does, like washing the pair of jeans once every 2 wears (when jeans are supposed to last long times haha which are like 3-4 weeks for me and longer for others), they don't punish him or make sure he learns. that's why my brother remains a bastard for the most of the time, and is my friend for the minority of the time i see him.
i'm not busteding him here, but i hope everyone learns from whatever he is not and maybe can relate to me on similar members of the family you really wish to kick in the ass but can't cause of family manners and 'appropriate' respect. there are a lot more things i am not very contended with reference to him, but it's just long and naggy to talk about it here, you can tell me if you want to know about it, i surely tell you in face. many things about his uncountable bad habits, his gay sexuality etc.
imma go play some guitar now and i really want to become better. but saying like this is not going to work.

Malaysia and AJ match day
hello today Cjc vs Ajc, but i didn't play cause i went to JB with Gabriel and family! i bought 3 shirts - 2 polos and 1 lumberjack (counterfeit looking one) and am quite happy but at the same time unhappy cause i wanted a vintage wash jeans as well as a brown corduroy trousers. that have to be searched for in Singapore now.
my brother, on the other hand, is over the moon cause he bought 3 shirts 2 jeans and 1 berms. plus 1 bag too. sure damn happy while everyone else was okay happy only. however Gabriel didn't buy anything but i hope he enjoyed himself waiting for me, playing arcade, eating junk and wasting time for an entire day in Malaysia, as well as leeching food from my family, but i think we're all more than happy to provide for you for a day, and for anyone else too!
most retardedly, i didn't take any photos even though i had my camera with me the entire day and a photobuddy with me too. for a brief report of this morning's match and a lesson learnt on online weather forecasts, please follow http://yourbeautyinapicture.wordpress.com, Freddie's blog.
imma going to bathe now cause i've got rash.

the Paolo's house
hihihi i'm blogging from Paolo's house here in Bishan which is so close to Cat High and i used to walk past here like everyday on my way to the bus stop home! if i had known that this apartment was his house in the past, i would have shouted something everytime i walked past for the past 10 years of short pants life. haha so here we are having a fun time with his Xbox 360, then we're going to watch either 21 or The Mist and then the other one after. and slot in supper at Kway Chap somewhere in between.
wish me fun and happiness and there's trng tmr which Fred and i ain't gg for. then there's match against Aj on Thurs which we may be / may not be going for depending on whether we choose to play the match or go Malaysia with family and Gabriel. so we shall see, if tmr rains then Thurs won't rain then can play match and vice versa! but i hope it rains on Thurs so match will be postponed and i can have the best of both worlds.
you know, there are many things i want to achieve this lifetime, one of them is to spot many different hairstyles throughout the various times of my life. the afro, dreadlocks and cornrows are all weirder hairstyles i wna do someday apart from the usual buzzcut or shoulder-length hair. i won't do a moehawk or anything that requires arrangement in the morning cause i ain't gna do it - i tried doing things that needed preparation in the morning and i couldn't make myself do it, so it's gna be hairstyles i can get and keep that way for a long time without doing much to it! hair, so fun to play!
Pao's tablet pc keyboard quite nice to type on siol.
