The waffle.

In a moment of aberration...

I've done something stupid.

But that stupid thing that I did is the right thing to do.

And that right thing that I did will always make me feel proud of doing it.

Well...

Of course...

not to forget...

that proud thing that I did is still something stupid to do.

...

Sounds cheesy but it does happen isn't it?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Call me eccentric...

Randomly listening to my songs...

and there.. I have this again.

Frank Sinatra - My Way

Just luv this song. Probably because of the lyrics.

I first heard of it in a Japanese movie screened for one of my courses on Postwar Japanese Film and Anime. The Swallowtail Butterfly (1996)

A tape playing this song was found by a group of illegal immigrants in Japan. Only that, these immigrants did not realize that this was not just a tape. But one that had a metallic plate capable of counterfeiting money. There... the immigrants struck gold... but with this windfall.. there came the problems....

Also, in the movie, there are Andy Hui from Hong Kong and Yosuke Eguchi (Famous for his role in the Japanese drama Under the same roof 1 and 2

Anyway, I will stop rambling on things of no pertinence. After all, my point here is the SONG.

A phrase from the song:
"Regrets, I've had a few. But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption."

But undoubtedly... all of it's lyrics are wonderful.

Ha~
Waiting...


Have you experience it before? When stillness of the air and sizzling humidity envelop you under a scorching sun and leave you feeling dimwitted? Well.... that day at the bus stop was.




The Desight - horrifying "state of mess-ness". How can anyone survive here?

But in fact.. SOMEONE does. And there is the infamous "baby powder incident".

"YUCKs" I went... when I put my hand onto the computer desk and got a full hand of baby powder. (No idea where it comes from.)

"Oh... what is this?" The owner of the room said.

With that, she lightly tapped her finger on the powder and applied it onto her forearm.

....

"Oh... is baby powder!" (And I must say... she's in awe.)

ErM... OK. Apparently, I was not taught the correct procedures of using baby powder when I was young.

Saw this while surfing for inline skates...

"How to use the toilet on skates?"



An excerpt from the site...

"Goal: Use public restrooms without rolling out the door with your pants down giving the innocent public a full moon at high noon.
Hint: Do not entertain taking off your skates. Many public restrooms have wet floors and it is not from rain. (Ew... )" - By Suzan Davis

Thought of that possibility before..

but to think that it really does happen is still quite a gag.

Ha~

Uploading...



Spicy hot pot @ Bugis

Realized that people in HK call this a hot pot while people in Singapore call this a steamboat.
Anyway, they mean the same thing.




Perk up on a STOOL in the MRT. Now you know what to do during rush hour.




The day when I have three pairs of eyes.

1st Pair: Gift from my parents. Impaired with vision deficiency.
2nd Pair: Contact lenses. To correct my myopic condition.
3rd Pair: Glasses with degree-less lenses. Er hem.. to blur my vision again.


Anyway....

Went for skating after the meeting.

Oh MAN... it's so fun.

It's time to get a pair of inline skates.

With that, I don't have to use the smelly and soggy skates and knee guards or to travel all the way across the island just to have an hour of fun in East Coast Park.

Realized I took the hand guards home by mistake....

...

...

I feel so bad about this....

...

...

I mean...


......

My bag gonna smell bad with that pair of fetid hand guards inside it for so long isnt it?

Binary extremity to Eminem's songs....

Diana Krall - Why should I care?

Listen...

if placidity is needed once in a while...
Classical Canon (Rock version)



Ha... Nice one.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Watched Pride and Prejudice a few days ago...

Believe it or not... I used to be crazy over Jane Austen's novels... whether it is Mansfield Park, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, Persuasion or the most distinguished of all.. Pride and Prejudice..

I've read them. In both English and translated chinese versions. Imagine that.

Used to find a subtle beauty of things in that era. You know... about the way Jane Austen's characters spoke always beguil me.

For example... Mr. Darcy was rejected by Lizzie in the movie.. and he went...

"Might I ask why with so little endeavor of civility I am thus repulsed?"

which simply stripped down to

"Why did you reject me?"

Frankly, I have a theory about this...

Er hem... look..

the century of Little England is one where entertainment and distraction are rare... so in order to kill time... they gotta speak in such grandiloquence.

After all.. there is not much to do...

About youth subculture...

Eminem (feat. Dido)- Stan

Got this song by fluke some time ago. About this cranky fan named Stan who has phantasm about a "relationship" with the singer.

The thing about Eminem's songs is they are always full of man...

As in...

Hey man!
Wassup man?
This is a good song man.
So do you get my point? Man.


AND... my brother sent me this link sometime ago... man.

Happy Corner

Definition by Wikipedia:

A ritual in which "a male student is lifted up by several of his classmates and his groin is then rubbed against a hard object such as a pole, a tree, or even the edge of a door."

Seriously...

I have never heard about this before. Is it true, man?

Is this irritating you man?

Great. I am outta here. Pissing myself off....

man.
