My brother had to register for his NS and so he logged onto the website and he was required to change his password. So after entering his new password and hitting submit, an error message appeared.

Oh.. cannot see.. anyway, it says: Please make sure you password does not contain invalid characters (e.g. @ / : * ? < > &) and start with alphanumeric characters (a-z, 0-9).

Then what may I ask can his password contain? No letters, no numbers, no symbols even. Then how to type in his password???? Did they seriously expect my brother to enter his password through thought-speak? Or maybe even talking through a mic and hopefully, the website can record his voice? It was soo ridiculous I couldn't help laughing at its stupidity. Maybe the Army should just stick to training boys into men and not try to go high-tech. =]

How is it possible that there are such beautiful places so near boring Singapore but I never knew how beautiful they were? HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE??




Singapore beaches are never that clean. There's always shit and traces of dead cat meat around. I remember going to the beach and guess what I saw? A dead fish. Aren't fishes supposed to be alive in the water? I guess the fishes die when they reach Singapore waters its like a law not to go near the shores of Singapore in their fishy kingdoms.

Tell me what you see? I see... CORALS!

(inserts Under the Sea song)
Right here on the ocean floor
Such wonderful things around you
What more is you lookin’ for? ~

Only after agreeing with YL that if we didn't have a break soon, we will seriously collapse and die from exhaustion. I need to relax. WE need to relax. Well, I don't know abou ther but for the past few days, I just felt like I had to get away. I needed to go away for a well deserved break. Away from all the work, all the stress, the constant strain on my braincells, digging deep inside for what's left of my creativity juices and design inspirations. I need to get away from it all. Well, to put it in simplier words, just take me away from the computer and I'd be thankful.

My braincells are seiously fried I reel like a retard. No, I am not suffering from depression. I feel perfectly fine. Just tired I guess.Thank God there aren't many projects due this week so I can slack for a bit. =]

This is like a scene out of The Blue Lagoon. It's Paradise!

And so, we made a pact. To go to these beautiful places and be a part of those pictures that you see. Oh in case you were wondering what that little devil looking thing is doing in the pictures, well, I wanted to put myself in those photographs and I didn't exactly have a photograph of myself here in the office so I decided to use that thing. Cute right? It's the Flesh Imp logo btw and since I was doing an article for them and have taken a liking to their logo, I used it. The next time you see these photographs, it won't be just that little devil. It'll be ME. In flesh! =D

I'm like suddenly feeling so nervous that I feel sick. So much so that I actually feel like puking. Er, as for why I am feeling like that, the reason is not for you kay poh buggers to know. And now there's some guy hovering around me in the office, taking pictures for godknowswhatreason.

Shit. I'm gonna throw up my lunch....

I am late for work. Okie lah I don't really have a reporting time although on the paper it states that I have to report for work at 10am. But er.. it gets progressively later so by late, I mean I reached the office at 11am. And it wasn't my fault. It was raining elephants and rhinos so I couldn't leave my house at the normal time. To make matters worse, the bloody bus came after waiting for like 25 minutes so it wasn't suprising to see the bus packed. I was standing at the door..

Okie I am going to complain so don't say I didn't warn you.

The stupid shit of a bus driver kept opening the door for more people to get on and there was hardly any breathing space. Literally. There was this uncle standing in behind me and I could smell him lah.. He smelt like he hadn't had a wash for like 10 years and he just came back from the market or smthg. In case you don't get what I mean, HE SMELT DAMN BAD LAH! Take ur unwashed sock and keep it unwashed for a week, throw in some shit and you'll understand what I've been through. I seriously felt like puking and I still do. It doesn't help that the bus was sooo full he was standing with his stinking arm above my head.

I wanted to die.

And so the bus finally came to a stop where most of the people got off and guess what? A whole bunch old people PLUS indian men came up. So the bus was almost empty for like ten seconds. Okie fine. But that doesn't stop this ah ma with a freaking BIG backside to stand in front of me. I mean, I'm fine with anyone standing in front of me, give me Osama Bin Laden and I wouldn't mind, as long as it isn't Smelly Uncle. Oh did I mention that the bus was packed? Again? BUT... the freaking bus driver kept asking us to move back, move in, so more people could get up the bus.

For godness sake! The bus is fucking full and there is NO SPACE so stop asking us to move back! There are fucking old people in the bus, and if all the old people were to be given a seat on the bus, there wouldn't be enough seats. Don't ask me why there were soooooo many fucking old people on a rainy day like this. It's probably Old People Day or smthg. I dunno.

Back to the ah ma standing in front of me. She was stand so freaking close to me her big ass of a butt was against my groin. Now how fucking gross is that?!?!?!? I was damn disgusted so in order to make myself more comfortable, I stood on tippy toes so that my groin was higher than her butt. AND I STOOD ON TIP TOES THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE BUS JOURNEY that my legs were about to collapse when I got off at my stop. I could seriously feel my calf muscles fossilizing. How's that for the start of a brand new day?

Shitty start if you asked me.

I am like talking to my primary school best friend online and only now do I realise how much I miss IJ. Shit man. I'm like getting emo now lah...

I MISS IJ!! like.. alot...

Brings back memories.... I have dedicated half my life to being in a convent and now, I shall trudge down memory lane with her for a while.

Now the best ending to this conversation would be meeting up for coffee and screaming at each other like we used to do, talking really fast that no one else can really catch up with what we are saying (alot of people tell me that IJ girls talk really fast) and laughing till we each head back and lead our different lives. Ah.. I'm reminiscing the past..

I bought another set of vcds. Someone kick me. Its the Japanese Drama which coincidentally has Takuya Kimura as the lead. Oh it's called Engine by the way.

And so after spending my whole Saturday glued to the couch, I can offically say that my butt has fused with the sofa and I walk around with a piece of leather stuck to my ass. Whatever. I manage to finish watching the whole series already. Power right? Ha it's doesn't have alot of episodes to begin with so yeah. Anyway, that's not the point. The point is that:

The kids in that show are soooooooooooooooo adorable it makes me wanna marry a Japanese guy to have offspring that cute. Well, if my kids were that cute, I will play with them everyday and not have them grow up. They will be my pet! Whahaha

It is as if the director went up to this couple and told them to go forth and breed, thus having a group of kids with the same cute factor. Then can he safely say that their cuteness runs in the family.

So I tried to look for their names but my efforts were all in vain. It's almost as if after acting in Engine, some UFO landed and the aliens took them away to research on their cuteness cause there is absolutely nothing on them. Sigh. Only after googling Takuya Kimura did I spot a screenshot with half the head of one of the kids. The cutest of them all and my personal favourite.

And before I gave up hope that these kids were all make believe and do not exist, before you scream at me for not being able to see his face...

TADAH!!!!

Kawaii right? Cute right? The little boy on the right lah. Not that old man with his mouth full. =] Okie if you don't find him cute, then you are probably one of those few who find lizards cute. Watch the whole show and you will find him so adorable and so small that you wanna pick him up and put him in your pocket. Ha

Okie that's enough drooling at that cute little kid for now... back to stoning.

YAY! Italy won! The pizza people won! so? Not like it's a big suprise

Okie okie I should extend my congratulations to them, and to all those who were rooting for them and won money betting, here's my hand to shake. They have come a long way before winning against the French, and that makes them happy people.

Well, to prove my point, this guy (whoever he is) is so happy he looks like he's about to die.

Ah, well, at least the whole world is celebrating with him. =]

Now's probably the time I should say that I am not a soccer fan, neither have I been catching the world cup since it started. Well, what can I say, the world cup doesn't exactly bring about the bestest memories since Brazil won. Stuff happened and I wouldn't say I wanna remember them.

I sound like a sour grape. No I did not lose money although I wanted France to win, I had a gut feeling that Italy WILL win (quoted from the newspapers). Whatever. I'm just finding something to blog about cause I have absolutely nothing to do at this point in time. Oh and from now onwards, I shall make it a point to blog properly, which by blogging properly, I mean, using caps when necessary and not by using plain lower case. Ah whatever.

my eyes are glued and my hands are clutching the book that i refuse to put down since i brought it home from the library on sat. and now as i am nearing the end of the story and dying to find what happens in the end, my eyes tear from the emotions that the character is going through. i laugh when she is happy, and i cry along with her. all these emotions are displayed like a set of fireworks.

all in the extent of being caught by my boss. yes. i was tearing/laughing while reading the book in The Office.

i feel like an idiot.

a really cute national geographic site where you can make up ur own stories.

take for example:

Dear LYNETTE:
I saw you walking to TOILET one week ago, and I thought you were as UGLY as a(n) PRETTY COCKROACH. I tried to get your attention by waving my TONGUE and doing a(n) SUMMERSAULT, but you didn't even look in my direction. Then when I walked by you in the hallway at school, I sang MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB and DANCED at the same time. But you never looked up from your notebook. In gym class, you were wearing the tightest PANTIES with a picture of AEROSMITH on it. You look so cute! I guess I was daydreaming, because I didn't notice that you kicked the soccer ball to me. It hit me in the BUTT, and everything went black. The next thing I knew, I woke up in the nurse's office! So I decided to get even. Yesterday I filled your locked with UHU GLUE. You must have seen me do it, because today when I opened my locker, VOMIT poured out all over the floor. So, now that i have your attention, would you like to go to the Valentine's Day dance with me?
Your FAT admirer

shhhh.. don't tell lynette. =D
