To Never Lie, Cheat or Steal

if you must lie,
lie in the arms of your loved one

if you must cheat,
cheat death

if you must steal,
steal away from bad company

why does it take just a minute to say hello but forever to say goodbye?

transformers 2!!! man,i think no one would disagree if i said it was one of the best movies this year
the effects are pretty stunning for a movie
its one of those few movies that left a deep impression on me
anyway, the college part in the movie...*evil laughter*
a handful of curious teenagers + their raging hormones...you do the math XD
i've heard....about things about the college life in the US :P
*singing busted's song* "thats what i go to school for.." XD
haha i was just kidding around
i shall not spoil it for those who havent watched it yet but its a must see movie...debinitely

i was just checking out the videos on youtube and i think you gotta watch this haha
those crazy arabs
i always wondered what they did with all the revenue they earned from their oil wells
perhaps you should turn off the speaker if you not a fan of techno music XD
but still its interesting..and there's more where that came from

youch...thats gotta hurt when you land on your head like this XD
this one's gonna be a long post so bear with me
first up!! Josh's 21st!
we celebrated it on sunday night at jeremy's condo, backyard bbq style XD
sarah and i went there early to set the place up, blowing balloons, hanging up decorations, etc.
since there was no pump we had to blow the 20+ balloons ourselves
you shoulda seen our faces after we blown the balloons haha
our faces were so red!!! :P
thankfully, reinforcements (or rather without the 's') arrived :P

ta-da!!! our lovely christina arrived!!

but she did her cards first so aiya...nair mind XD
heyy...i just realized she went down quite a bit ar
perhaps the workout from the dance?? haha
speaking of the dance...oh shucks so sorry my dear,
i couldnt make it for the one tonight and i feel so bad about it =/
and speaking of going down...cindy said i grew thinner hahahaha XD
anyway back to it
His family also came all the way down from m'sia to celebrate with him too...awww
i didnt take much pictures because i ended up getting my hands dirty with charcoal and cooking the food
...as always, but its always better to give than take right? :)

the birthday boy's cake!

pardon the bad quality ar,
poor lighting and taken with phone camera = cant expect too good pictures
alamak, he was looking at a different direction
ahh nair mind
anyway, hope we made this birthday a memorable one and you enjoyed it brudda!! :)
May God continue to bless you in ebbreething you do!

its funny how our friendship started back in poly
in fact, he and i actually werent too close in the first year and even the first half of the second year
prolly because of our first lab assignment together
there were lots of misunderstandings then
and i have to admit i was also quite immature then along with the other guys
the other guys and i always thought he was kinda....crooked cause of his metrosexuality
ok josh i repent!!! dont whack me! XD
we were more of the 'hi,bye' kinda friends
but when the second half of year 2 started we started to grow closer through projects, fellowshipping, etc.
that was when he brought me to chc and i got saved....again
since then he has always been a big brother i looked up to :)
then came year 3...sheesh who could forget the days we reached school at 8am for lessons and stayed until 10+ or 11pm in school to do our fyp
then our favourite food for dinner at the SIM canteen,'auntie ar, wanton mee ji pao'
as the deadline drew nearer, we were staying later until we ended up doing till 4+am (at home of course XD)
i think during that time many friendships were really put to the test
it was either you make it or break it, not to mention that relationships that also ended
that was how huge the pressure was from all the competition
even after all that, i'm glad we still remained the best of friends

ok some people have been asking me about hannah, the gal you see in the tag area
she's a really good friend of mine, more like a sister haha =D
she and i go way back to pri school...pri 5 to be exact when we first became classmates
hmm..she was boyish in some areas but she's still a great gal in ways more than one XD
she always liked to play catching back in pri sch when we ran all over the school carpark with our other friends and were all sweaty after recess
what else...ahh yesh, she watched WWE also haha back then it was called WWF
and i think her favourite was the rock..."can you smeeellllll what the rock is cookin?" XD
not to mention she watches soccer too, die hard man-u fan
dun mind me talking about this han haha
dont let all this fool you, she's our pri and sec school 校花 if you will
very popular with the guys
how we got to know each other...i really think its God 's plan if you ask me
thing is a very close brudda of mine, zubin actually liked her a lot for quite long...a few years, cant really remember the exact number
and me on the other hand, had a crush on one of hannah's good friend for 8 years (0.o i know haha)
who is it? not important, she's a very spiritually strong woman now and happily attached too, i'm happy for her :)
so yeah, coincidental? the only reason i can think of is the one above :)


....cause who i am hates who i've been

Happy Father's Day!!!!
make sure you remember to wish your dad XD
yesterday's service was a pretty good one haha
the drama was hilarious but what really left an impression on me was the sermon
although short but deep :)

sometimes i suppose we all let our carnal nature take over in more than one ways
and we end up demanding from God miracles, answers about visions, etc.
but have you ever wondered why He did things the way He did?
the answer: maturity
lemme give you the same analogy pst tan used...
he said his daughter always asked him for ice cream
and in exchange for that ice cream, she would have to do her homework
of course this is the part most kids hated, haha i was one of em
doing homework -> good results -> success in education -> good job -> good pay
and with the good pay...yup you guessed it,
you can eat ice cream everyday if you wanted
heck, no one will stop you even if you ate one each hour
its the same way with us and God,
we always want something immediate, NOW!!
try looking at things from His perspective,
all the trials He put us through is to mould our character and help mature us
as the bible says, God never lets a trial go to waste
what we want might not be for the best of our interest but hey, He knows best right? :)
its gonna be tough but patience is the key
thats something i'm gonna have to work on too XD

i'm a guy. Since when do we ever get things right the first time?

i just got back from watching the taking of pelham 123 with kok and shen
and i still have work tomorrow!!!
shucks, at this rate i'm going
i'm gonna fall sick one day
the movie was quite interesting though surprisingly full of vulgarities and with an ending a bit too abrupt

speaking of work, lots of people have been asking me why did i take this warehouse assisstant job
alright just to clear all these...misunderstandings
sure its tough and the pay's a little low
but i dont detest the job and i also wont say i like the job too
both are too extreme words to use
i take it more as an experience, to see what one does in this kinda job
so that in the future,i can choose the job i want more easily :)
of course, being the motorhead that i am...my dream job would be a racer
anyway, back to what i was saying
the job is actually quite enjoyable because of my colleagues
they come from all walks of life before they got this job and not to mention they are pretty funny XD
my supervisor can shout from one end of the warehouse to another of his old kaki not to play around in hokkien and the other guy will shout back something funny
btw, my supervisor is a malay XD
i know whacha thinking...i dunno how he mastered mandarin and hokkien so fluently even sometimes i converse with him in hokkien as well
everyday there's laughter goin around and thats something i dont think you will find in most work places
so yeah...thats all i have for you

i'm trying to fight it but i just cant help it

lots been happening this week and even more next week
sharon and elis left for HK yesterday morning,
saw them off at the airport along with elis's family and bf..turned out to be quite sentimental haha
i hope they are getting used to the environment there
and although its only like 2 days...i'm starting to miss her XD
angela and i did a card for her,
and i dunno how it got passed around until it ended up in someone else's hands instead of hers XD

this what i drew before angela took it home to colour and decorate it

unfortunately,didnt get a picture of the card when it was done
i must say we did a pretty good job and thank goodness sharon liked it
i was afraid she might find it too..kiddy XD
hui mien was asking me to draw her a calvin and hobbes card when it came her birthday haha
it wouldnt have been a problem in the past but now my drawing skills are not as good so we will see XD

celebrity weekend was great!!
although i'm not exactly a mandarin pop fan, it was quite an exciting two hours there in church with some of the big names like FIR, vaness wu, liu geng hong...
reminded me of new year's eve in taiwan when all the famous singers came out to perform at the parade square near the taipei 101 building :)
back then it was so crowded i couldnt even see my own feet!
and when the crowd was jumping to a song,you'd better jump along or risk getting knocked over by those crazy fans XD
after dinner, cindy was talking to me about um...a certain something
but it certainly did knock some sense into that thick skull of mine
what she said was very true and
i really thank God for giving me such a wonderful sister who always shared her thoughts and disciples me so patiently :)

anyway,today i went to mandai in the early evening to pay my dad a visit at the coloumbarium
after that i was on my way home when i decided to stop at the nearby reservoir to watch the sunset
must say it was a beautiful view :)
lots of couples were cuddling around the bench area so i figured it was better to view from the car :P

speaking of cars, a friend was asking me how did i pass the tp (traffic police for those who have no clue) test
and well...there was really nothing to say except to keep practicing
at least that was what i did, there was
even so,after passing the test i forgot most of the stuff that i learnt
i just look at the rear and side mirrors only and dont bother checking the blind spots anymore
i assured him he will prolly learn more bad habits than good ones when he starts driving on his own
what do i mean? some examples...
1)driving with one hand on the steering (guilty XD)

2)taking off your shoes or whatever you are wearing on your feet (not guilty)

3)the occasional cursing and swearing when a car suddenly stops in front to pick up or alight passengers (guilty)

4)exclaiming "confirm sure woman driver!" when the driver in front is hesitant in changing lanes or have problems parking (guilty, sorry to all those female drivers out there haha XD)

5)and of course who can forget the ever favourite: speeding (guilty)

shucks, 4 outta 5
i'm definitely not the kinda driver the government will want to use when promoting safe driving XD
alright thats all for now, i will fill guys in more some time later

Up Around The Bend

i went with the W452 and W480 homies today for dinner at clarke quay
i shant go into the details but although i just saw them W452 homies last week, it feels like a long time
yesh i admit i do miss them one way or another but most of all i miss cindy!!!!
not to worry rou, u're still my respected cgl :)
we went to celebrate matt's upcoming...oops, no more upcoming,its his birthday today XD
and of course sharon's farewell dinner
after that, they went to the nearby pub called helipad for drinks 0.o
i know, the name sure sounds interesting aint it?
when i first heard it, i was picturing a couple of people squatting around an actual helipad on the roof of central drinking beers and your usual hard liquors like chivas, scotch yada yada XD
unfortunately i didnt go with em because i was feeling kinda tired from all the work

on the working side of things, the warehouse was busy like crazy today
constantly moving around with goods and pasting labels on several hundreds of items for the past 8 hours
shucks, my fingers feel kinda sore and some of the skin are actually peeling off!!!
i wanted to use the pallet jack as a skateboard when it was almost time to get off work but the thought of the executive supervisor catching me...well, didnt seem too nice XD

i wanna thank two people for helping me to understand some stuff if not i'll still be feeling dejected and lost
first up, ah tong for always being there to hear me out whenever i needed a listening ear and advice, you will always be one of mah besh sisters around XD
and yesh you too rou, for explaining and clearing things up...i appreciate it :)

i'm sorry i got a little too ahead of myself
i really had no idea and didnt mean for all this to happen
i know this isnt easy on your part as well and you will have to think this through
but i do hope we can go back to the way we were in the past :)

Tough Decisions

hmm...ever wondered if you going in the right direction at times?
you may ask around for advice...or perhaps even a solution
hoping people might have experienced the same situation you are going through now
but even after they tell you what their thoughts, it all goes back to wondering even more
and i really dunno what to do
its one those things that can drive you crazy and sometimes becoming a nervous wreck altogether
dont mind me, its about some things i just discussed with rou thats all XD


butterflies in your stomach XD
