almost forgot about commenting on the title for this week...

really sad... so many ppl killed by the tsunamis... so many houses destroyed... haven't really had the chance to see many pictures and footage of the affected areas... first heard it on the 6.30 news on channel u on boxing dae... the death toll then was like 2k... and now it's 125k and still climbing... easily the greatest crisis after 9/11...

and it all happened so near to our country... comforted by the national and international effort to help out the countries affected... praying tt an epidemic doesn't spread and tt the death toll would stop climbing...
last dae of the year... time to look back at the past year? and have new resolutions for the new year? hmmm... seems like i've been pretty nostalgic on my blog to look at past events again for this post... as for resolutions... haha... dun think i managed to accomplish much... tt is if i had set any in the first place... haha...

was being a couch potato just now, watching the programmes shown for the last dae of channel u... feel tt they overdid the nostalgic part... ya... everybody's gonna go in diff paths after todae, ppl's gonna miss the nice shows (including me)... but they really overdid it... sorta getting sick of it, so came online....

sad to find tt i won't be seeing my 3 times senior on tv for quite some, if at all, on tv again... oh ya, i'm refering to evelyn tan or otherwise known as chen2 yu4 yun2... i'm sure i mentioned tt i attended the same pri (she went to cedar girls primary, which later merged with cedar boys primary to form cedar primary), same sec and same jc as her in some post far far back... find tt she resembles, in a couple of ways, someone whom i noe...

ahh!!! my right nose is sooo blocked... sianz... saw the weather forecast... 23-28C and raining just about every dae... now u noe why everybody's getting the flu...

my friend gave me this riddle yesterdae... let's see if you noe the answer...

There was this man who went to a shop to buy some stuff...
Man: 'How much does 1 cost?'
Owner: '$1'
Man: 'And how much does 12 cost?'
Owner: '$2'
Man 'And how much does 935 cost?'
Owner: '$3'

Question: What does the shop sell?

Hi guys, now here am i blogging after so long of silence.... Well i came to blog because i was simply impressed and surprised with the high standard in song writing by my pal, Songyu.
The lyrics sound so poetic cos they rhyme... And mind you, it is not a simple thing to make sentences rhyme especially when one is writing in Chinese. You need extremely strong Chinese vocabulary to do that.
Seriously speaking, Songyu is already enough to awe and stand out among many young Singaporean Chinese, given their preposterous Chinese knowledge in this modern world (Haiz...) Hence, I give the rating of 8.5/10. By the way, Songyu, there one or two wrong words and the phrases are incorrect. Still, a very commendable effort and i can see another side of talent in you... :)
Hope you will become a great songwriter of many popular or award-winning hits in the future.

haha... must i be thinking of someone when i wrote those lyrics? ^_^

Friday, December 24, 2004

wanted to try something new the other dae, so i tried to compose my own lyrics... maybe someone provide me with the tune? haha...

Lyrics no. 1

昨天、今天

昨天
对你的爱恋 让我每天孤枕难眠
思念
你微笑的脸 是我夜里梦中缠绵
时过境迁
当日的事件 是令人心酸的经验
穿越空间
若能到从前 一切回到初发地点

初恋、暗恋、迷恋、狂恋
结果还是失恋
你给我的抱歉
手已给别人引牵
我可要如何应变

今天
没有了依恋 不为昨天的事失眠
不念
你可爱的脸 心田也再不暖绵绵
经历万千
今日的事件 给我种全新的体验
你我之间
离开了从前 有了新的出发地点

作词:小飞机

In a nutshell: this song talks about how, in the past, this guy liked this girl so deeply that he is saddened by the realisation that the girl is already attached and how he wished that time could backtrack... the song goes on to tell of how the guy has then moved on with his life...

Comments: one of the best-composed lyrics so far and one of my favourites... providing a melody for this song should be quite easy i suppose (not by me that is... lol...)... inspiration is pretty much drawn on personal experiences...

Lyrics Compilation

The following is a compilation of the lyrics i have composed so far:

Lyrics no. 12

《小行星》
原曲取之 Keira Knightley 所演唱的 Lost Stars

我和你 在这庞大宇宙旋转的星星
绕着你 地心吸引力将我拉近
牵着我跳着外太空它的律动
在这无边无际夜空里慢动
享受那时彼此同步跳跃心动
沉醉在你的光芒

但你是天体火星
背对着我望着的 是天体金星
原来我只是一个 路过小行星
微光确实不能 点亮这片夜空

是我吗 一个飘浮微不足道的星星
是我吧 怎么拉也拉不近你我距离
没有你这世界变得有些迷茫
尽管流星昨日飞过我身旁
许个愿或许我就会全身发亮
吸引到你的目光

但你是天体火星
背对着我望着的 是天体金星
原来我只是一个 路过小行星
微光完全不能 点亮这片夜空

是不是我在胡思乱想
是不是你在呼唤我
是不是真的我在幻想
是这样吗

但你是天体火星
背对着我望着的 是天体金星
原来我只是一个 路过小行星
微光根本不能 点亮这片夜空
微光它不能 点亮你的夜空

作词:小飞机
二零一五年十月二十九日完成

歌词大纲:借用原词的歌名,改变以往的方式,以星球来代表男女之间的爱情。女方尽管被男方深深吸引,却在男方的世界里只是个过路客,在男方的背影影子里,望着男方看着他心仪的对象

感言:看完了电影Begin Again,但没有立刻觉得想把这首歌拿来加个中文歌词。是在冲凉时脑海出现了几段词,便决定试试看。原本想把天文学里的一些名词加进歌词里,虽然有一两个最终没得加入,但对于完成品在这方面的尝试有些成果,感觉还不错。选用Keira Knightley而非Adam Levine版的歌曲是因为觉得Adam Levine版太过商业化,而Keira Knightley版比较实在,比较能触动心里。

放眼未来:hmm.. 昨天坐地铁回家时,在想着如果自己能拍段MV会有多好。。 哈哈哈。。 做个梦也无妨。。 可能在我的梦里做个预先彩排也不错。。

《星空闪耀》
原曲取之 Bob Dylan 原唱, Adele 翻唱, Farisha Ishak 再翻唱的 Make You Feel My Love

绵绵细雨 滑落我窗前
我不经意想起 你的脸
我俩隔着 遥远的距离
多希望看到你

夜空灿烂哦 满天星闪耀
你是否也正在 想着我~
流星划过 这个宁静夜
多希望看到你

昨日的 誓言牵系 你和我
坚持着我们 的信念
期盼着相见 的那一天
双手紧相扣 的那一天

哦~ 不管距离
有多远 我明了~
你就在 你就在 我的心里
哦宝贝你就在 我的心里
多希望看到你

夜莺们鸣着 我俩的情歌
风诉着 丝丝的情意
花儿散发出 淡淡的甜蜜
就如你那 甜美的笑脸

哦~ 此时此刻
我深深明了 哦~
你就永远住在我心里
告诉我你 也在想着我~
正想着你的我 正想着你的我

二零一三年五月十三日完成

歌词大纲:和原词一样以爱情为主,但所叙述的故事却完全不同。此词描述着一对情侣分隔两地,一方对另一方思念的表达。 夜深人静的晚上,一方想念着对方 - 对方的美与对方的好。

感言:这是朋友系列的第四段歌词也是暂时此系列的最后一段歌词。在多年前开始构想与撰写这系列时,曾考虑要为哪些朋友写词,但在写此词时决定我会暂时停止这系列。可能是时间过了许久,与一些朋友的联系少了,对他们的现状也不清楚,若写起词来可能不符合他们现时的情感/心态,那也就与我开始这系列时的初衷有所出入。换句话说,暂时的四段歌词是比预期少的。

事隔近一年才出朋友系列第四段歌词,我猜想以一个现行歌曲,把它改编成华语歌词,从而成为此系列独具特色的一段,应该或多或少弥补了这时间上的差异。同词十一样的,此词献给三剑客之一的成员,也即我们当中感情经验最丰富的一位。哈哈!愿三剑客友情永续!

初次所听的是参加歌唱比赛The Final 1歌手Farisha Ishak所演绎的Make You Feel My Love,瞬间便喜欢上了这首歌与Farisha Ishak对此歌曲的改编。技巧到位,但不显炫耀,而且感情丰富,唱歌时充满灵魂。歌手长得不错当然也加了不少分。哈哈!言归正传,我在过后陆续听了其他人的版本,包括原唱与Adele的版本,但还是觉得他们在唱此歌时缺少了些什么。比较难想象的还是此歌如何从原唱的朽木般的演绎变成Farisha Ishak完美演绎的版本。

放眼未来:不知不觉已到了词十一,可能多几个后会考虑找人帮忙填曲。

《一点点》

已经半夜十二点
对你的想念仿佛多了点
只见窗外雨滴一点点
心中伤处也疼一点

不觉已到一两点
对你的思念不只多了点
只见窗外滂沱好几点
心中深处也冷一点

对你的付出每天一点点
只望我们关系好一点
可惜缘分却没半点
脚步停留在此点
最初见面地点
对你还有点
怀念一点
一点点

作词:小飞机
二零一二年六月三十日完成

歌词大纲:短短几句词叙说着一位男孩在夜里思念着某个女孩,只因某些原因无法和她在一起。虽然付出了许多,但得不到想要的结果。

感言:即词五《勇敢向前》,这是朋友系列之中的第三段词。此词献给其中一位我认识了很久的朋友。此词基于我听说的一段情。我想对方对自己的感情/好感是我们不能控制的,只要自认付出了你的全部,那过程也是无悔的,哪怕结果如何。什么阶段也好,最好的选择应该就是向前看吧!

词十的结构简略,句句终于一个“点”字,第二段落延续着第一段的情境,而最后一段的结构意在相继缩短的句子里把意境推高到最高点。灵感来自中学时常玩的一个无聊游戏,即haha金字塔:

hahahaha
hahaha
haha
ha

在此祝愿我们有更多个十七年的友谊!

放眼未来:词十已出,我只能说我将陆续筹备相映的词十一。敬请期待!哈哈!

《你和我》
原曲取之 Olivia Ong 所演唱的 You and Me

(前奏:

他们俩手牵着手
同步一起走
一二三四脸贴脸

脚步轻盈踢踏踢踏踩
让这爱情能继续的漫延
多么希望我们也如此甜蜜)

散步在熟悉的街道
事已变但情依旧
他们俩将永远在一起

虽然那些日子不在
他们的情怀却没更改
魔幻力量它在空中

享受那
春风吹来的丝丝暖意
夏天它悄悄地来临
悄悄地来

他们俩手牵着手
同步一起走
一二三四脸贴脸

脚步轻盈踢踏踢踏踩
让这爱情能继续的漫延
多么希望我们也如此甜蜜

紧握着手他带着路
散步公园里太阳下
散发着暖暖的情意

享受那
春风吹来的丝丝暖意
夏天它悄悄地来临
悄悄地来

他们俩手牵着手
同步一起走
一二三四脸贴脸

脚步轻盈踢踏踢踏踩
让这爱情能继续的漫延
多么希望我们也如此甜蜜

他们俩手牵着手
同步一起走
一二三四脸贴脸

脚步轻盈踢踏踢踏踩
让这爱情能继续的漫延
多么希望我们也如此甜蜜

希望我们也甜蜜
希望我们也甜蜜
也甜蜜也甜蜜

作词:小飞机
二零一二年三月二十八日完成

歌词大纲: 与原词相近的,此词叙述着一对年轻情侣望着眼前的一对俩老,羡慕着俩老的爱情依然如此甜蜜,但愿他们本身的爱情也能如此长久甜蜜。

感言: 偶然间在youtube看见Olivia演唱的歌曲You and Me,听到副歌时不自觉地把英语歌词翻译成中文。感觉上还蛮顺的,而且并不那么困难,于是便尝试着把其他的段落也翻译成了中文。当时蛮好奇的,还不知道是否存在着中文歌词的blues/jazz风格歌曲。有的话,听起来应该会很有意思吧。

即中学时改编了刘德华/吴宗宪/柯受良的歌曲《笨小孩》的歌词后,这是我再次尝试改编现有歌曲里的歌词。改编后觉得以上的歌词陪着原曲唱起来时还ok,应该不会太怪吧。

另注:在改编的过程中,听到我妹唱着Olivia演唱的英语歌词版的《隐形的翅膀》,即Invisible Wings。听起来也是另一番滋味。

放眼未来: 若碰到适合的歌曲/歌词, 不排除再次接下类似的歌词改编挑战。

《一见钟情》


望着陌生的美丽 心中不禁惊喜
手中握着的笔记 停止传递
在脑海里赞叹你的细腻
不可思议的 喜欢上你


享受开学的气息 心中充满欢喜
沉醉于欢乐之际 晨运完毕
在教室里同学们再聚集
清晰的空气 陪伴着你


猜中了我的心意 脸蛋几许讶异
从我那儿探取消息 左眼关闭
在那刻里帮我保守秘密
一眼瞬间里 我爱上你

别怀疑 笑容很甜蜜 没人能代替
我对你着迷 因你的亮丽
多愿意 希望在这里 时间能慢移
让我沉迷于 一见钟情的你

作词:小飞机
二零一二年一月二十四日完成

歌词大纲:正如词名《一见钟情》, 此词叙述着一见钟情那微妙的情境和那想把片刻化成永恒的渴望。

感言:继《苦冷咸咖啡》之后,近两年半没什么进展,直到今天顺利地把此词写完。回顾词七的感言时,我不是很确定我在最后一段提起的重要歌词是否是此词八。总而言之,这词八的写作工作早已有一段相当长的时间,而想要写这词八的念头更是好些年前的事了。

自从《毕业典礼》得到不错的反馈后,我便着手研究写一个格式相同的词的可能性。几经思考后,我觉得写《毕业典礼》的上集将会是一个不错的选择。其中的考量与因素包括:

- 我一直以来都希望在每一个新的词中尝试新的东西,并且对于写一系列有关的歌词(即有上下词段,犹如书籍)颇感兴趣。

- 记得TTY之前常问我有关一见钟情此事和他是如何的不相信这现象。我想这词八多少能明确地形容一见钟情那微妙的情境吧。

- 也记得TTY说过他蛮喜欢一些作词者是如何能在不同词段中更改少量的词汇但表达出截然不同的意思与意境。所以我便想在应用《毕业典礼》的词构段落的同时,也尽量保持《毕业典礼》中的词句。

在确定歌词大纲与写作方向后,我考虑了是否能够将此词写完。毕竟,《毕业典礼》的灵感来至我个人的经历,而《毕业典礼》的词有大概九成诚实地描写了当时的情况。在上述局限下,完成词八呈现了一定的挑战。

与《毕业典礼》相同,“我”和“你”所指的现实人物是一样的。而“她”、“他”与副歌的段落则令我相当的头疼-

“她”:到底应该以哪一个真实人物与事件作为题材呢?显然的,《毕业典礼》的“她”肯定和词八的“她”是不同的人物。

“他”:想了又想,最终决定把“他”的段落给省略掉了。毕竟“他”在那一刻并还没介入故事的情节里。

副歌:最后因难以仿效《毕业典礼》的效果,结果只是借用了它的词句结构。

放眼未来:暂时有一些确切的想法与构思,希望能在不久的未来实现。可是那将是自创作以来最大的工程,也可以说是一个我蛮想完成的作品。

《苦冷咸咖啡》

喝杯苦的咖啡
苦痛刺着我心田
没有你的甜美
只有苦痛的思念

喝杯冷的咖啡
冷风吹着我的脸
没有你在这陪
只有冷风的残念

喝着苦冷咸涩泪水加咖啡
尝着没你的滋味
心里无限的回味
原来这是分手的滋味
原来这是分手的滋味

喝杯咸的咖啡
咸涩洗着我的脸
没有你在这陪
只有咸涩的怀念

In a nutshell: this song talks about the different feelings experienced after break up..

Comments: this song is THE 1st song tt i've actually composed.. one tt actually has a melody.. and e inspiration came from nowhere while i was humming away in my shower.. all was completed in 2 hours.. well, e lyrics weren't long anyway.. but i'm not recording e song tonite yet.. so pray hard tt i don't forget the tune tml.. lol.. one point to note is tt e melody for e chorus seemed somewhat familiar.. and i'm not sure if it's from another song..

coincidentally, i was looking at lyrics 6 for formatting purposes and i realised tt lyrics 6 also touched on break up.. and it was perhaps a little strange tt my last comment for lyrics 6 turned out to be somewhat true..

on a sidenote, i was working on another set of lyrics.. one which i feel is quite important and something which i wanted to get out soon.. but tt has been left on e shelf for a while now and maybe when inspiration strikes again, i'll finish tt piece and post it up..

《分离》

我望着你
我们之间仿佛又多一层距离
是否因为
我们之间隐藏了太多的秘密

看着那灰色的天 它正在为我们而哭泣
难道我们就真的没法挽回我们的过去?
就连那寂寞背影 它也开始悄悄陪着你
难道我们终究只能带着悲伤各自离去?

我们之间出现了什么问题?
是你的孩子气 是我的坏脾气
还记得我们说过不离不弃
可你选择远离 而我选择放弃

看着那灰色的天 它正在为我们而哭泣
难道我们就真的没法挽回我们的过去?
就连那寂寞背影 它也开始悄悄陪着你
难道我们终究只能带着悲伤各自离去?

In a nutshell: this song talks about a couple breaking up and wondering what has gone wrong in their relationship..

Comments: this set of lyrics was actually finished yesterday before i went to school, all in a span of 30 minutes.. suddenly had a melody in my head and wanted to fill it in with some lyrics.. but apparently it was only enough to last me for stanza 1.. considering tt it was completed in such a incredulously short time, i think it's probably a ok-ly done one.. pretty much like 相思豆女孩, there wasn't any real inspiration for this particular set of lyrics.. on a sidenote, i might just come up with lyrics in e future tt talks about all e different kinda break up scenes.. :p

《勇敢向前》

陈旧的照片 洒落在地面
回忆的碎片 我翻了几遍
街上的车声它安静了一点
风在我耳边轻轻地念

明月挂天边 照着我心田
泪水在嘴边 我望着眼前
心灵的声音它明亮了一点
夜将我小手轻轻地牵

抛下所有厌倦 舍弃所有眷恋
我相信我能不再流连 往事那一篇
哪怕尘世再变迁 哪怕困惑多缠绵
我会惦着我脚尖 勇敢地向前

玉镜它不变 就如我理念
所有的演变 我当作历练
未来的呼声它明确了一点
光引我向前轻轻地牵

《Cinderella》

深夜里的香格里拉
街灯下有人在等他
等着他 骑着骏马 手握吉他 前来接她
乌黑的秀发 粉红的脸颊
默默地站在月光下

她就是Cinderella 傻傻地等着人家
她可知骏马不一定是白的啊?
王子他不一定潇洒 也非完美无瑕
但他可能弹得一手好琵琶

痴痴的Cinderella 等到花儿也谢啦
可是她就是为何迟迟不出嫁?
王子他不一定奢华 也非威猛高大
但他可能天天送你玫瑰花

去勇敢地爱一回吧!
不要有任何牵挂 不管别人的闲话
可能眼前的他 才是你的最佳
你梦中的仗义行侠

深夜里的香格里拉
街灯下有人等到他
等到他 骑着黑马 手握琵琶 前来接她
鲜红玫瑰花 肉麻的情话
找到了自己的神话

她就是Cinderella~

In a nutshell: this song talks about this girl, cinderella, waiting for her prince charming to come... in the process, she did not accept any proposals from anyone else... but as the song goes, cinderella realises that the best guy for her may not be prince charming after all and she manages to find her own fairytale...

Comments: quite a simple song... i remember u once shared with me your views on boyfriends and marriages... and that's where the inspiration for this song came from... so are you still waiting for your prince charming or are you already attached? lol... and unintentionally, as i was writing the lyrics halfway through, i realised that the guy faintly resembled someone and i got reminded of an event some time back... haha... but i shall not say any further... anyway, wish u all the best in your studies and in your love life... muahaha... if you want the original hardcopy of the lyrics, u can get it from me the next time we meet...

《相思豆女孩》

相思豆女孩 已有很久没陪你望着那辽阔的大海
相思豆女孩 已有很久没依赖在你那温暖的情怀
还记得 我记得 当日的阴霾
你在树下徘徊 时不时还对着远处发呆

相思豆女孩 已有很久没陪你表演在校园的舞台
相思豆女孩 已有很久没依赖在我们之间的恋爱
还记得 我记得 你将头儿抬
再也无法忍耐 突然泪满脸向我扑过来

你的突如其来 把我给吓坏
心中不停的猜 你为何悲哀
结果你说你得了癌
笑容从我脸上离开 生活顿时乱了拍

但病魔不会将你打败
它不会夺走你的和蔼
也不会是你生命要害
更不会灰去生活精彩
因为你是相思豆女孩
因为我俩会牵手过百

现在你在国外 努力的抗癌
已有十个礼拜 我等你回来
(回来我俩一块儿 沙滩沙上踩)
感受我们各自动脉
陶醉于这个简单爱 我的相思豆女孩

Comments: hmmm... not much comments really... lol... except that i didn't get my inspiration from anyone, including myself...

《毕业典礼》


望着湖上的涟漪 心中几许叹息
手上紧握着相机 双眼关闭
在脑海里追寻你的足迹
鼓起了勇气 我走向你


享受柳树的绿意 心中充满欢喜
沉醉于美景之际 晚宴完毕
在人海里朋友们再聚集
清凉的空气 围绕着你


猜中了我的心意 脸蛋微露惊喜
从我那儿接获相机 左眼关闭
在瞬间里那刻写进日记
我俩合照里 我靠着你

拍下了 典礼的华丽 灯火的绚丽
月亮的亮丽 和你的美丽
却拍不到 心中的惋惜 黑夜的孤寂
无形的泪滴 在即的分离


与你不只有友谊 上演的情侣戏
至今已到第四季 不必再比
我输给他因为我来不及
将爱情传递 我还爱你

看见了 你与你唯一 怀抱里相依
分享着甜蜜 离开了典礼
却看不到 我靠着墙壁 暗地里哭泣
对你的着迷 我无法抛弃

Thursday, December 23, 2004

as promised (to ju-zi)... some pictures from the last class outing... 'some'... haha... dun ask me y there is onli 2...

was looking forward to the class outing tt dae... so was pretty disappointed tt it turned out quite unexpectedly a semi-failure... 3 ppl forgot tt there was a class outing tt dae... conveniently forgot?

yes... the previous 'outings' were flops... utter flops too... but i sms-ed everyone onli a few daes b4 the outing to tell them the timing for the outing... nothing was mentioned about a cancelled outing... i'm sad... sad...

me, tty, bra and yixiang had lunch at parkway... and hoe hiong joined us when we finished our lunch... yixiang and xinyi then left cos both were tired out from the previous week... hh stayed on and we played lan at katong... the whole thing ended at around 5...


nothing better to do while waiting for the bus... whipped out my digital camera (actually my dad's) and started to play with it...


me... waiting for the bus to come...
some pictures tt i've been drawing for the past few months? i believe it's not a known fact to many of my friends (including tty and bra i suppose) tt i'm a recreational drawer... must admit tt it had been a long time since i previously last drew... aniway, found out tt the most diff part in drawing the comic characters (and i suppose other objects of interest) are in getting their eyes drawn correctly to potray the correct character's feeling to the viewer... v diff task...

thinking of moving on to drawing real people from photos... much inclined towards drawing the 3Justice class photo on an A4 sized paper... it would be a level of difficulty up and definitely give me a great sense of achievement if i were to successfully complete in drawing it... but tt would take quite some time to finish, by the looks of the training schedule...

all the characters below come from the comic naruto... give some comments about my drawings pls?

haku... a child born in a snowing village... a shinobi's tool...


hinata... shy admirer of naruto... the silent supporter behind the main character...


sakura... naruto's love and sasuke's admirer... determined young lady...


gaara... master user of the sand... distorted view of love...
Long holiday!!! Weeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!! it's christmas time lo... time to go out with friends, go orchard to soak in the christmas festive season and just basically laze ard...

received a pleasant surprise when i saw an envelope on my desk as i walked into my room yesterdae (i booked out yesterdae...)... unfamiliar handwriting i thought... looked like a girl's handwriting too... well, i was right... quite an unexpected greeting card from her (not lynda)...

developed this habit lately of putting myself into another person's shoes and seriously thinking about wat tt person is thinking as he/she goes about doing his/her stuff... like when i'm in the train, i would sometimes look at other people and just wonder what is going on in their minds... sort of like trying to read another person's emotions through his eyes/body movements/conversations...

on other stuff: had feedback tt u all might not be able to see the pictures tt i posted here... aka they are seen as crosses... well, if right clicking on the cross and pressing 'show picture' does not help, u can still view them on http://sg.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/songluck00/album?.dir=/3456 ...

was watching a sun morn tv programme last week... saw this young girl (the one who won the green apple award at the recent star awards...)... wow... great stage command and display of confidence... i'm impressed...

i'm starting to wonder if i'll ever pass one week without having getting pissed off by other ppl's mannerisms... maybe i'm getting more easily irritated...

heard this weird announcement on the mrt todae... it went something like tt... 'dear passengers please kindly move towards the centre of the car...' ... car? isn't it supposed to be called the cabin? hmmm...

went to chinatown with bra and kien heng (whom i mentioned earlier in this blog... the guy whose gastures are gayish...) todae to buy some cheap cds... i bought 'Stefanie' (sun yan zi) and 'A-du chun2 qing2 ge1' (A-du)... the stef cd cost me $5.50 and the other, $7.50... cheap eh? original cd some more...

hmmm... should be sleeping now, had a long week... not tt i did much... maybe tt's y it seemed long... listening to 93.3 as i think of wat to type...

oh ya... realised tt i was getting disgusted by other ppl's mannerisms... was at the ntuc at lot 1 the other dae...
scenario: housewive paying up for her stuff
cashier: do u have a member card?
housewive(speaking with an attitude tt matched her speech, if you get wat i mean? maybe not...): if i have, i would have given it to you...

not sure if you are lost at what i was typing up there... was really irked by her answer... well, she could have just said a plain, simple NO... eh? some singaporeans huh... *shakes head* and to think tt more was to come...

scenario: housewife leaves and next guy in queue pays up
cashier: sorry sir, the credit card scanner (or watever u call tt) is spoiled... you have to pay by cash...
man: (refuses to pay by cash and asks if other counter's scanners are also spoilt)
cashier: (goes over to the opposite counter to find tt the scanner is also spoilt there... comes back to man...) sorry sir, the scanners are down... you have to pay by cash...
*5mins have passed...*
man: (still insistent on paying by credit)
cashier: y don't you withdraw cash from the atm machine, so tt you can pay up? (points to atm machine tt's less than 5m away)
man: (got glue stuck on his feet aka still reluctant...)
cashier: (starts to fret abt how to deal with the man... approaches other cashiers for help... found out tt the scanner's connection was actually loose and hence assumed tt it was 'spoilt')
man: (finally got it done his way by paying by credit)

the whole saga lasted like 10min? and there i was next in queue after this man, with just 1 box of oreos tt i wanted to buy... for goodness sake! just wat the hell is wrong with paying in cash??? you just tell me... wth... i was so damn pissed off tt i almost volunteered to help pay up for tt guy... got credit card big f ah...

off to smth more positive... this bookout finally came... was so looking forward to it... cause of the class outing... dunnoe y, but i was feeling sky-highly positive and spiritual at the starting of the week (and still pretty positive for the remaining days...) just plain feeling crazily positive... positive abt wat? i also dunnoe...

just remembered seeing this article in the new paper... it reminded me just how crazy/stupid/inlogical/etc etc this world is... girl meet guy, both like each other, guy decides to marry girl, guy tell girl tt he is HIV-positive, girl decides nevertheless to marry guy... so far no big deal about the whole story...

then girl have sex with guy, fully knowing tt she might get HIV and not regretting her decision... girl gets HIV from guy...

wat absurdity is tt? and the reason tt the girl gave was tt she was happy tt the guy was honest with her abt his illness and tt she wanted to share his suffering... but share it by having sex with him and contacting HIV??? WOW!!! blow me away man... WHAT HAS THE WORLD COME TO???

updates, updates!!! sorted out the blog drop down list... deleted non-existent links and added new ones...

i noe i have been dragging it for so long liao... ah!!! finally decided to REALLY do an overhaul of my blog... thinking of bringing in a whole new refreshing look to it... u should be able to see the new blog b4 the end of the year... hopefully... :P *cross fingers* haha...

i managed to pass my SOC!!! yahooooooooo!!! clocked 10.13, then 9.42 to finally relieve myself of those sat RTs... next year dunnoe whether i can meet the passing timing of 9.30... jialat... but tt's stuff for me to worry abt only from next april onwards... so until then...

so the upgrading course has been postponed until next wk... guess the reason for the change must have been because of the LRI...

the week tt just passed was so uneventful... slacked max time... allowed me time to do some drawing... or rather copying, from my naruto comic book... did a copy of this picture here into my notebook:



my most diff drawing to date... had not much of a confidence at the beginning, but decided to carry on with it anyway... the end result was very satisfactory, much to my delight... also drew haku, hinata and sakura previously...

have been v annoyed lately by my platoon mates' extreme unwillingness to do things... well, at least it applies for the majority of them... any attempts to change the situation just equated to wasting kilojoules of energy spent in moving the lips...

i'm so happy~~~... at last i think we're gonna have a decent-sized 4jt class outing on the 19th dec... the response so far has been pretty positive (well, compared to the countless previous failed attempts, wat can i say...)... at least 7 ppl should be going for the outing... namely: me, tty, bradon, runyan, yixiang, xinyi, lynda... wenyan should be going... shiyun might be... and so is peiru...

have been having quite a number of dreams lately... long ones too... and somewat neutral-happy kind... talking about dreams, i'm thinking of creating another blog to catalog all the lucid dreams tt i can remember... got the idea from the guy tt i read about on the lucid institution website... planning to also do a write-up on dreams and dream control on tt new blog... will be part of my blog overhaul/revamp thingy...

guess tt's about all for now? oh yar... hey ju-zi and emu... if u 2 see this msg, realli hope u 2 can come to the outing... ju-zi: maybe u can take a leave on tt dae? or maybe u r not working now in the 1st place? emu: maybe u can join us for lunch... ya? realli putting in the effort to get as many ppl going as possible... ^_^
