out of mold..

running through the archives is just like reliving little bits and pieces of my life..some i rather not remember and some i look upon with a fond smile..i realise my writing style has changed a lot..gone are all the crappy poems like..

something's got into me/ stressed? or a stress relief?/
ok, enough here/ i'm starting to feel a fear/
i'm going to pass my exam/ just like that, KAZAM! -snaps fingers-

-addy goes to lose himself in the music/ the moment he's waiting for him to win toto!-

04 nov 2002 -in a bimbo voice- isn't that great?!

aaahh..those were the days..but one thing has remained rather consistent throughout these 2 years (plus a little more)..the lack of comments!! i used to moan about this regularly but reading back on my past postings again, i realise that besides blogging for others to read..this blog also serves to remind me of things i did wrong, silly moments, achievements to be proud of, failures that i overcame..more importantly, these postings preserve my memories..

another new week is beginning, stay adored and be happy!

god bless!
cheers!

i'm not a boy not yet a man..

i was just thinking yesterday how others have often regard my thinking as matured..somehow after yesterday's session, i kind of beg to differ..consider this, i stopped oogling at MTVs only when i was halfway through poly, i stopped playing with soft toys only when i finished poly, i still spend too much money, i still get angry over the littlest things, it only hit me that true love only exists in movies when i was in the army, i don't do the housework and my idea of setting the alarm clock is to get an estimate of what time my mum is coming over to wake me up! well, just to name a few examples! while my friends are getting married, one by one, i'm just on the verge of beginning to begin to understand what a relationship really means..but like most other things in life i'm still stuck at the basics! not that i'm not considering marriage in the near future, but sometimes i do wonder if i'm grown up enough..or are we ever grown-up enough in our lives? if it's complicated being a teenager, it sure is worse being stuck in between being a boy and growing up to be a man!

i get a kick out of.. ...

just got home from a football match..lost..again..but i scored despite playing like crap..so maybe that compensates a little for an otherwise forgettable match..it always is special when i score..i just get a kick out of it..

Shrek 2 was much like it's predecessor..lots of sweetness and cuteness and eddie-murphy-ness! i think eddie murphy really outdoes himself as Donkey than in his other comedy roles..ok..so maybe the story is predictable..but that doesn't make this movie any less enjoyable..parodies of films like mission impossible (remember that famous tom cruise stunt where he did that horizontal drop?) and lord of the rings, that crouch grabbing move of michael jackson's courtesy of Pinocchio and even of famous brands like Farbucks (i mean starbucks..really!) and Versachery all add a little charm to the film..if you're looking for a film to catch in the next week..be sure to leave your daily worries behind and visit this far faraway land..if you get what i mean! -winks-

that's all from me now..may all have a good week ahead..

god bless!
cheers!

married with children..

4.30 a.m...i cannot believe i'm still awake! my colleague's wife is at club med so he decided to leave his 3 children at home and arranged a little outing for bachelors only..well..almost!

10.15pm, met and got comfy at C.A.N. cafe (or is it?) at bugis..the guys ordered beer but being as i am, i had chocolate milkshake (though i must say it tasted more like banana milkshake!) instead..and so we sat there, (my handphone rang and yaling informed me she was with a group behind us!), we played daidee (yaling said goodbye and left midway) and we idled till midnight! that's when the bachelor for the night decided we dropped by newton hawker for a little makan..(it's the middle of the night for goodness sake can't we go home?!)..anyway, he had chicken rice! while i and a few other friends shared 2 otaks and a plate of carrot cake..2.15am, ("bachelor" leaves to go home to his 3 kids) and someone suggested a pool session..i wanted to protest but then it's been goodness knows how long since i last stayed out late and plus i didn't want to be a spoilsport, so i agreed to go along..went to two other pool parlours before we settled for pool factor at marina south..i could hardly keep my eyes open much less aim! 4am, finally they decided to call it a night..and all i can keep thinking is if i can keep awake during Shrek 2 later in the day!

well, good night to all husbands and bachelors!

note : this was not actually written at 4.30am saturday morning!

tick tock..

there's been a ticking noise in my ear lately..it comes and goes at random timings..infrequently but frequently enough to bug me! what the hell is it!! the first time i heard it was during football on sunday..while i was running..tick tick tick tick..when i stopped..it was gone..but after that day..it just comes and goes..damn! my brother said it is my heartbeat when it is not in sync with my hearing..my friend said it was due to exposure to loud music..i just think it's pretty irritating! =(

there must be something more to life than this..

every sunday i get up..brush my teeth..wash up..aahh..refreshed..eat breakfast..idle around the house until 1.30pm..have lunch..2pm get ready for football session..3pm football session..6pm football session ends..6.30pm reach home deadtired..bathe and idle around a little more..8pm dinnertime..9pm get ready for bed..monday morning 6am time for work..

and so it goes on and on every weekend..to the extend no one dares to ask me out on sundays anymore..it's even worse when the football is cancelled..that's 2pm - 8pm of doing nothing! there must be something more to life than this..surely! guess i'll figure it out WHEN i figure it out..or maybe when i'm married with kids!!

saturday morning 10a.m.

it's another saturday morning 10a.m. (alright so i'm repeating myself!) and i shouldn't be blogging right now..why? because i'm fully utilising my office facilities and i really shouldn't be doing that!!

anyway, finally done with my assignment (you know the one i was kinda complaining about last night?)..though i think it's pretty crap..hai..

and before i forget..here's a shoutout to my bud in genting! hope you brought enough snacks!! =P

i think addy's going mad..

stay adored!
god bless!
cheers!

bittersweet symphony

everyday i have complains..i complain that i have assignments to rush..i complain that i don't have enough money..i complain when my job gets me posted elsewhere..i complain when my legs ache and feel like they are about to give way..but the passing of a friend's dad recently made me realise that i am blessed just to be here..i am lucky that my family still loves me..i am fortunate that my friends are still around me.. ..now everytime i complain i just do it out of the habit to do so! =P

to this friend of mine, i know it's never easy when a close one moves on to another life but i hope she stays strong and may god light her way whenever darkness beckons..

life is a bittersweet experience..behind every bitter moment, comes the sweet..bear with the bitterness and treasure the sweetness of life..god bless!

stay adored!
cheers!
