alright i'm blogging more than usual. that's cos there's nothing to do right now (getting ready to hear some comments coming from the excess peeps lol). i've got a testimony, that my colleague just became a christian and accepted Jesus Christ as his personal lord and saviour. i'm very glad for him. he told me his search began when he felt he desired something more real with a meaning and purpose in it. he has just joined a cell group at a church he always went to, in the company and guidance of his aunt. that's something to be happy about. it's best to fill the emptiness that we all at certain points in our lives have. i'm really happy for him. he'll drop by soon for excess. that's a another reason to cheer for. woot woot. chea...

"hmm you know i didnt mean to sound angry like i did, with that text. plus when she called last weekend when i played soccer at nus high she apologised she couldnt make it, and that she's already in the process of inviting more folks. that's if i assumed correctly. i mean i really meant nothing angsty, i guess i was little too excited. cos when i saw you, you were quite eager to 'set things straight'. really sorry if you got the wrong idea. didnt mean to. and when i walked past you i didnt say hi because you weren't looking lol, you were looking a little stressed in my opinion, and so we walked right past each other during the taking of the host. in addition i was stoned, and my face when stoned, looks like a pokerface. sorry man didnt mean to. anyway looking forward to seeing both of yall down, together with others next tue or sth. there'll be a special worship leader coming down on labour day, a lawyer whom in mel's opinion helped to build his faith greatly. looking forward. it'll great for yall to experience it."

alright that's just my emo self talking. the ultra sensitive things i'd debate and evaluate within my rancid brain.

i heard form eddy that we're clubbing this friday with the same people from excess, mel, nick, chris, tim, eddy joyce and myself. hmm i havent thought of what to get eddy for his birthday, and i know he won't read my blog cos he has problem seeing white and black. so does ec. they it's a genetic thing.
and i booked my basic theory lessons on sat morning 8am. it's gonna be a chore to wake up. oh well. i'm used to staying out late on sat nights and waking up at 7 plus am on sun mornings to go for mass. my sat mornings are normally used to lessen my sleep debt, oh well it should be alright.
matt's coming back to the hood thurs night, will be looking forward to see him again. he had to be confined for 3 weeks, when normally it's just 2 weeks. it's been a long time lol. was talking to him the other night over loudspeaker via the mobile and he was saying it was shitty inside. don't the males who have been conscripted know that already. but it makes us more of a man. something that other people would otherwise not understand.
he was thinking of pushing for a downgrade cos it's hurting his back, i'd encourage him to go through the whole phase but it might cause him more trouble, then again see how the events go. on a brighter note, we might be able to perform at esplanade. that's a good prospect. will discuss our plans with him when we meet up. rough diamond has since gone low-key. i gotta get back to louis first about the demos and all. this time round, i'm hoping it will materialise unlike our missed chance at bumblebeez. that really sucked dick. oh well, let's wait for the first spark to get us going. i know everyone back at RDI has been rather sad at the slowing down of pace, the valuable contacts we've made, and the people we've met up with, our hopes were pinned really high. all we can do now is rethink the steps we're taking and gonna take, although i don't know what the level of enthusiasm is right now.
hmm anyone's got a good deal on recording sofware for MACs please get at me. i've setup my sound-proofing foam, got my condenser and firewire interface, but the software i got can't make the cut. was thinking of using bootcamp and install windows so i can use cool edit but i ain't go SP2, plus thinking about it now, i'd rather not install windows and keep it a full-fledged macintosh monster and let it stay true to its name, reputation and potential.

Botak jones was great! haha damn. my stomach still hasnt shrunk from yesterday even though i dropped bombs already. anyway went with my cell yesterday to the botak branch somewhere in ang mo kio. tim and i had a double botak meal which is, a double inch thick beef patty burger with fries and slaw. it was delicious. jem and edward had the chili dawg meals and it looked more delicious than the double botak lol... the dawg was huge. oh well had a great meal. we went to play battlefield after that, not bad, had some fun but my eyes hurt after that. ha. i'll prolly play ball and go to the gym later (need to get those pounds off) cos all the officers aren't in today. they got a retreat at sentosa. woot. looking forward to a good day.

that was a bit of a rush lol... man, feels good to have eaten. am listening to some internet radio and i'd recommend www.1.fm great radio, so many different stations ranging from trance, club, 80s, hiphop..... it's my next best non-living companion when i'm on duty. alright will update and pick up where i left off again. getting ready to sleep.

It's 9pm. i have office duty to fulfill this evening and a couple of us just ordered food from mac's. best thing is the delivery time is estimated at 1.5 hours. that's an uber long wait. and i'll prolly sleep in the office tonight. woot. i feel so lethargic. just searched for some multimedia business speakers and studio monitors that i wana purchase. then again it's gon' be tight on my pocket. ha. oh well. everyone's staying late tonight cos there's gonna be a big event tmr, somewhat a seminar, a symposium, and seems like most are rushing their work. understandable. i'm feeling so numb to the extent that i'm just going on and on lol.....damn....i just can't wait to eat.

just remembered i was supposed to attend julia's vocal lessons at edward's place, but turned out everyone else couldnt make it as well. great timing folks. i don't wana miss out on the technicalities. and i havent been practicing the do's re's and mi's and going from do to mi over an interval. it's cool, i think it'll do excess alot of good. cos our singing sucks for sure lol and we need the help we're getting from julia and i really appreciate it!

Hmm i wonder how matt is doing in camp. another day before he books out. everyone's enlisting now, matt, jeremy norfor and melvin. it just reminds me how fast time flies....oh shit the delivery guy just called!!!!!! lol.......laters.........

It's been a long time since i last updated my blog. it's been a hectic schedule before this but i must say Exhaustified 07 was a blast! it was great, exhilarating and tiring. but overall the group grew closer and i'm glad for that. daphne's birthday celebration was awesome, daisy was pleasantly surprised at hers and we went to MOS for melvin's. crazy but awesome.

it feels a tad weird updating my blog after having not been doing it regularly, i'm getting it back slowly. now i'm pondering what to say. so much has happened. you know i was just talking with sam the other day and i told him i dreamt about her again and i woke up feeling terrible. what a start it was to that day! damn man... and he said, don't tell me you haven't gotten over her !!??

yea i must say i'm amazed as well. things have kept me off thinking about that and friends have rallied me on but at the end of the day i come back to the realisation that even if you hold onto it for the slightest moment it still eats you up entirely, whenever it comes back and it's crazy. i'm wondering why i haven't managed to totally give it up, why? it's just plain crazy.

But you know i always thank God for blessing me all the way. from calling on me to organise exhuastified, to letting me become celestine's godfather, to just being able to live day to day knowing i've got a purpose and without the support i've received i'd prolly be feeling the same emptiness i did before. i look back and i see how my eyes have opened up to a whole new perspective. the affirmations i've received compound the faith i have and have kept it growing.

that's the kind of post you get when i don't blog in a very long while lol...
Hmm... i just finished eating a taiwanese pastry my boss bought from taiwan, it's delicious. too bad i'm putting on weight. ha.

on a sidenote, i'm looking forward to my ORD which is in 9 weeks' time. Finally i can count down in terms of weeks! technically speaking i've got 8 weeks left to serve in camp, with 4 days of leave, and two short weeks given the Labour day and vesak day public holidays. soon man. woot.

so this is my virgin post for april. and it's already the 19th. enjoy.
