Reminiscence in the dark.

A short one before i head out later.

2012-02-14T22:12:00.000+08:00

Yup, heading out for some photos at National Museum later on.
But in the meanwhile, while i wait for the clock strike 45 past 10, i will post a short one.
Or something like that.

Been tired and busy the past 2, 3 days.
Well, Valentine's coming up.
And my work place being a favored haunt for dates, naturally the influx is increased.
The call traffic is crazy these days too.

And i guess it's really sad to work on Valentine's, especially at night.... When you're single.
You get to see couples here and there.
Well, good news is that you get to see your type here and there.
Bad news? They're all taken.

Hopefully, by next year, it's my turn?
Let's hope so.

Anyways, i've went to Marina area after work.
Main purpose of that is to get the Beach Angel albums by Fierce Angel.
Apparently, i got myself a good catch.
And all the tracks inside are what i really needed.

Love how they design the cover.

After getting my stuff, i roamed around the area, wandering.
And i came across with a live performance that is going on at the outdoor area of Esplanade.
I think it's a Pre-Valentine thing, since the songs were mostly love songs.
But i must admit, the lady's voice is really really good.

I've enjoy myself watching it, though it feels a lil awkward since i'm the one single person there.
It's all couples, family or friends.
But aww well~

Oh yes, and apparently, i hooked onto taking pictures in monotone.
I somehow find them looking better than the actual one.
See.

And the next one.

What do you guys think of it?
Well, the rest in mono =)

Ok~ Gotta go now~

Weird weird inside.

2012-02-09T02:05:00.000+08:00

Evening people~

I'm not so emo, i guess.
Guess i really thought it through, for now.

So you must be wondering, what is it that causes me to feel 'weird weird inside', as stated by the title right?
Well, i'm really doubting myself.
After seeing the semi-finalists for Live Mix Maestro (Yep, Ray, Shai, Fadd and Areen in it =D ), i'm really inspired by them.
But at the same time, i'm really wondering, is the way i normally play bad/good?
How is it?
I mean, i don't see anyone playing the same way like me, except for radio channels, which has really different agenda from me.

But i feel really weird changing my style.
I mean i want others to feel the song, feel the whole of the song.
But.... I don't know.... It just feels weird, to change and not to change.

But i think i will go back to play Beach House.
Something that i really enjoy playing.
After all, i remember the reasons why i play those tunes.
I want to play something that everyone will know how to appreciate.
Something that will appeal to a different crowd =)
And reflect my personality~
It guess it's really hard to find something that you love and describes you at the same time =)

Guess i wanna share something with you guys.

Feeling The Night - Kaskade
I love this kind of music. Something that you can chill out, relax listening to it. I mean, it's pleasant. Don't you think so?

Anyways~
Just now, i had my lunch at Faber Bistro.
I think it's the first time i had my staff lunch in Jewel Box.
My gosh, it's really good, both the food and scenery.

I first had my Carbonara Penne with Ham or Bacon (I can't tell their difference =X )

Then i called for Cream of Tomato after that.

I guess it's ok to splurge and dote on myself with food from time to time.
For being a good boy =)

Yea, It's totally good.
And totally enjoyed my company with Haiqal and Tiger.
Otherwise, it's just boring 'staring at the sky' session while thinking about life, while waiting for the
food to come.

And...
After reading a magazine while waiting for my hair cut, i read this interesting article.
It was about dating and dating agencies.
Come to think of it, i find it quite a novel idea to go for such stuff.
I don't know.
I mean, it's a way to look for partner right?
Besides, i don't know, who knows, maybe i can find someone there?

But then again, i think i should just drop this silly idea of mine.
It's just a waste of money.
Haha~
But it's kinda funny thinking about it.
Aww well~

Totally late, totally bored.

2012-02-02T02:54:00.000+08:00

I'm really bored now.

The net's laggy, so gaming's out of the equation.

Pretty groggy, so doing the report won't be something i'd do today (Though it's due really soon)

I don't want to feel bored.

Once i do, i tend to think too much.... And you know the rest.

To be honest, i'm already starting to think about something already.

Linda did told me once.

I didn't move on.

Which i think it's really true.

It seems like, i don't bear to move on, thinking everyone would stay the same.

Well, everybody eventually does, and i'm the only one who doesn't.

Ends up? I'm the only one who stays stagnant.

Angie says that i didn't change. Still the same Daryl she knew back then, when we were primary school kids.

I guess i was just too contented about how life used to be, you see.

I love it when Mom's still prepared great dishes and a pot full of soup for dinner during weekend.

I love it when Sis and me were talking about subcultures (Especially punk lolita, since she's good with that)

I love it when we head to nearby malls like Jurong Point on Saturdays for dinner, and relaxation.

But things have changed.

I'm always busy on weekends, due to work.

Mom and Sis will always be away on weekend, at Uncle's place.

Sis is now obsessed with cosplay, not what she used to like and be anymore.

But i guess, i will eventually get used to it.

It's just that i'm not used to it as of now.

And i'm at the midst of getting used to everything now.

I know i have been harping on Sis changing so much since she went into the world of cosplay.

But it's true.

She changed so much, she isn't the girl she used to be.

Just changed so so much.

I prefer the old her.

The cute little petite girl who packs that spunky-ness.

She thinks differently from peers her age, which makes her so cool.

That 'punk princess' which i could really relate to.

That crazy cat lover who i could go 'cat-hunting' with, and playing with them for hours.

That cool but lonely girl.

Sometimes, i really wonder.

If i had not went or brought her to the photoshoot at Fort Canning, would things be different from now?

I know, i would know one good friend lesser (and that would be Luna).

But at the same time, would Sis still be in cosplay like now?

Sometimes, i really think, if Joy and Miao didn't say she looks like Miku, will she still dabble with cosplay and be the her now?

If they didn't say that, would she have already become the little punk princess which she initially wanted to be? (and that i like)

Sometimes, now that i think back, i somehow do feel a slight resent towards them for saying that.

And thinking about the reasons that Sis joined cosplay...

I don't know. I didn't like that.

She wants to find friends from there.

But from what i can see, majority are childish conformist.

Of course there are some great people here and there (Personally, even i became friends with them)

But others are just.... Off.

And among that, there's a whole bunch of unpleasant people.

Keyboard warriors, 'hyena and jackals' ('We're strong, 'cause we're in groups'), conformists (as mentioned above), and even perverts.

There's more to name actually. But they're just at the back of my head.

I know i'm being overprotective, and being abit over-zealous.

But fuck it, if you were me, wouldn't you feel the same?

How the hell can you not be worried?

Well, all these are my thoughts of that matter since the last 2 years.

Maybe writing it here, might make me feel better a little.

And it kinda irks me.

How did someone that cool has fallen down to the level of those people.

That's what she has changed into. One of them.

It feels as if, either they have taken my sister who i used to love and respect away, or they 'killed' her (Think 'Punk is dead. Poser killed it').

From that whole episode, i come to resent, hate, dislike 'otaku'.

Yes, that also mean i resent my lifestyle and mindset which i used to be.

So if you wonder, why i don't like to be related as otaku and stuff, this is the reason.

And just if you think this is something new, it isn't.

I've been like this ever since she got into cosplay.

And at one point, i thought i gotten used to this, and relaxed on it a little.

Just recent, something triggered something.

And i realised, i still feel the same.

I should realise something since a long time ago.

That aspect of Sis which i really loved and adore, is not gonna return.

We can never return back to the past, which i missed so much.

So, what i have learnt from it?

Treasure what you have now.

I guess i'm out of the forest, for now.

I think i'm thinking clear now.

I think i should really move on.

There's nothing left here now.

In a limbo

2012-01-30T01:35:00.000+08:00

Been thinking alot about everything.

I've been a bad boy.
I've been lying all the time, for the past few years or so.
To myself.

I told myself, if you treat people well, people will treat you well too.
Apparently, i really believed in Karma, or 'do what you want others to do you'.
It's either the world is too fucked up to follow this wonderful logic, or i'm so fucked up that i believe in it.

Ends up what happen?
I give my 195% to people who i deemed as important.
Didn't seem like it reap what it deserves.
All the time.
I'm not trying to do things and asking for returns.
All i ask for is just to be appreciated.

Apparently it also cause vicious cycle.
People only treat you good when they need your help.
Thus, you can say, it's labelled as 'Sucker'.
You know, like those kinda old time cartoons.

Really, i'm tired of all this.
I'm tired of being a nice person.
I'm really tired.

Yes, i know it has its perks.
I get to make friends with even the most difficult of people.
And i do get help from people around me.
I appreciate that.
Really i do.
These are the reasons why i can't bring myself to change.

But still....
I don't 'doing what you want others to do to you' befalling in the way i want it to.
Seriously.

Sometime, i give so much to people, and it doesn't seem to reciprocate.
So am i just stupid to do so much?
Come to think of it, isn't it a good food for thought?
'If output is the same, would you still give in more than what is needed?'

I think i just need to take some time, and really think over.
How should i face life.
How should i go about dealing with life.
How should i walk my life.

The more important a person is to you, the more greater will they leave a hole in your heart.
For they have a great portion of your heart.

I think the CNY post can come later or something.

2012-01-28T22:44:00.002+08:00

It's Chinese New Year, i know.
But i guess i'm just a fucked-up worry wart, always worrying about things that i shouldn't be worrying about.
So, i guess posts about CNY and all those can wait.
Not in the mood to share it happily, though i was definitely happy about it.

So what's up this time, you must be asking, right?
It's just some thing that bothers me, never fail to bug me.
You know, nothing bothers me as much as this subject.
Ok, from now on, until the end of this post, you might not understand a single thing that i'm gonna say.
It's normal. It was not meant to be understood. I just want to release the feelings. I just want to feel better.
So if you get it, so be it. If you don't, too bad. And if you don't like it, feel free to click the red button over the top right corner.

I know that it is natural. The things that's going on now (Or what i thought might be going on), is natural.
Damn natural.
But i couldn't bring myself to let go, much less let loose.
Just as i thought i was ready to let loose, an idiot just have to say something.
And it just upsets me.
And only to make me realise, i'm not ready afterall.

I know, i'm being over-zealous.
I know, i'm just being too overboard with my 'duty'.
But hey, what if she gets hurt?

And now, with that in mind, i think i going back to what i think she didn't like me to be.
Fuck it, i can't help it too.
And the more i think about it, the more i have to agree.
That, the problem is me, and nobody else.

It's selfish for me to put my personal feelings inside.
Yes, i admit i am jealous.
Yes, i admit i am jealous.
And yes, i admit i am jealous.

You know, the valet lady in my workplace, did highlighted my weakness/fear.
Spot on, hitting the nail on the head.
But that's just the surface.
There's something deeper. But i don't wanna let anyone know.

It's becoming a problem, and it's gonna get worse if it's not gonna be curb soon.
It's excruciating, and i don't know what to do.
I'm stuck in a limbo.

I don't know what to do now. I really don't know what to do.
I think i'm thinking too much.

That's my weakness.
I tend to think too much about the things/subject/person i concern.
To the point i start to feel negative.
A fucked-up bad point about me.

What should i do now?

A new year... And another adding up to my age.

2012-01-08T01:07:00.001+08:00

Hey guys~
Ah, so another one years is added up to my age.
So, i'm not really young anymore uh....

Ah, so shall i talk about how did the new year went?

Start with new year's eve, shall i?
Was working on that day.
Had seen fireworks happening at 3 different location.

And man.... It's perfectly awesome, if you asked me...
Well.... Would have been much better if i wasn't feeling sick or being scolded by guests.
But hey, the fireworks really lifted up my mood =)

Ah....
So today marks the end of my teenage years.
Um, feel nothing special actually =X
Hahaha~

But seeing how things go, i might wanna try this.
I will show the journey of my changes (if any)
Haha~

So we'll start with whatever i dug out from my computer, Facebook etc.

This was the first camwhore picture which i took, with the intention of making into my profile picture.
I look kinda big-headed here. Hahaha~

Oooo~ My favorite profile picture at that time.
Was suppose to make my coordinate look like it's inspired by my idol.
But think it didn't go that well uh?
And come to think of it, such a waste the bangs were too short....
If only it was longer....

By this time, my hair was cut short, for the sake of DHHM.
Something which i didn't really like actually.
But hey, they say it suits me.
So awww well....
Note that there's a hand up on my shoulder.
Who's fingers are these? 0.0

I still remember this.
Initially, i got a number that is at the back... Which means that i would have to wait a very long time for my turn, which in turn would make me even more nervous.
Luckily, Faizoul (Or was he?) had a switch with me, so i got with my favorite number.

Ahhh~ Here's my favorite picture of all time yet.
I love this. How it turned out.
I didn't realise when it was taken.
At that moment of time, i was actually panicking, don't know what to do.
Was already messing up so so much.
I'd say the photographer is a pro, to turn a picture of a panicked me into something so nice. Hahaha~

Hahaha~ Was fooling around with Sis in MOS Burger in Ngee Ann City that day.
She took it, and laughing her ass off.
My gosh, for one moment there, even i myself find it humorous, at how i could make my face turned out like that.
You think? =D

Pictures of me mixing.
The top one was at BluJazz, during last year's Vibes and the bottom one was when i was at this school's (Can't remember the name) event EMP sent us.
On a random note, Vernon A was there.

Man... He's a real friendly guy =D

This was taken last year.
I'd say, the most memorable excursion in my poly life.
I'd really enjoyed myself for the day. It was so so fun.
Hahaha~
Made me realised that, i love visiting places like these. Hahaha~

These was much more recent.
This was taken when i went for interview for the job i'm having now.
Yup, this is also the first time i took the cable car. Hahaa~

Right after a day or two, i play for Spin City.
I like what i played that day.
But sadly, there wasn't any crowd.
Don't think anyone likes it =(

And this....
The backdrop was fantastic. It's no wonder why everyone likes to take picture here, honestly.
Need i say more? =D

So that's how i look like now =D
Before the current haircut.
But hey, once it grows out... It's the same =_=
Hahahaha~~~~

So, guys.
How you see the change here?
Hahahaha~

Ok, i wanna play my games now.
Yes, did i mention that i am back to playing maple?
It feels so nostalgic.

Ahhh~
Niteeeeeee~~~ =D

Before a new year, onward to the end.

2011-12-31T13:46:00.000+08:00

Hey guys~
Less than 24 hours to 2012.
How you guys are feeling about it?
Especially those who are same as me, in terms of age.
This year marks the end of your teenage years.
Looking forward? Or dreading it?

Ah, i'm not too excited actually.
I'm falling sick =/
It's kinda silly to have yourself falling sick on New Year's Day, and nearing your birthday, you know.

This past year have been a fast one.
Blink of an eye, it's the end of the year.
Don't you agree?

I think i have not yet spoke of going up to the Logos Hope.

Yes, it's a big bookfair (not so literally) on a big ship (Now that's literal).
It's quite cram inside, due to crowds and shelves.

There's a selection of fictions, cookbooks and children books.

In there, i saw a few interesting things.

Especially this one.

It's nostalgic.
I remember asking Mom and Dad for coins and playing this when i was a young boy, while observing the coins spiral down into the hole.

I thought i would enter it the second time, but i did not.
Aww well.... Hope it comes back again~

For Christmas, i got myself my birthday and Christmas present.
It consist of a great deal.

I got 3 albums for the price of 1... And the feel of mixing the songs in them.
Honestly, if you love House music in general, or Disco house, or Funky house, you'd definitely love it.

And also....
Went to have lunch at MBS with family the other day.
We had ours at Din Tai Fung.
I've gotta admit, they have the best Xiao Long Bao i have tried, yet.

Had fried rice as my main. The pork chop is fantastically great =)

After lunch, we went the LV boutique nearby.
My~~ It's really nice. Took a few pictures.

And it intrigues me even more, to find myself outside of MBS.
The outdoor deck looks pretty awesome, especially for tonight, i think.

Such a long post regarding my past days.
What to do?
Procrastination got me good ^_^"

Ah....
So you would be asking, what's my new year's resolution, and what i have done for this year right?
So lemme see what i had for new year's resolution for last year...
Nope, i did not do it... And confused Alison's birthday =(

Err, so lemme see what's my new year's resolution for 2012...
- Try to get a spot on Streetfest 2012 (Provided i have not entered in NS)
- Survive NS
- Having more confidence in general (Life, myself, etc.)
- Finally try out a Punk get-up (Yes, make-up and all)
- And last but not least... To be a better man.

Ah, so you heard mine....
So what's yours? =)

Ok, gotta go~
Enjoy your New Year's Eve with a blast.
I'm gonna have mine, working and seeing fireworks..... And praying hard not falling sick for the next few days =/

Winter solstice.

2011-12-23T00:32:00.000+08:00

Time flies.
Before you know it, the year's coming to an end.
Maybe it's due to the fact it is a busy year.
Alot of things did happened.
Many things.

Many things that happened, many occasions, got me think about life.
Yes, more or less about the future, how am i gonna look at it, how am i gonna work towards it.
I am already 19, and 2 or 3 more weeks, 20.
I'm not the small kid anymore.
I can't afford to not think about it.
But whenever i do, i don't know.
I don't know what i want to do for my future.
I have no ambition.
After being disappointed with many things in life, i do not dare wish for an ambition, except for the fact of being a good father and a good husband.
And even being good at that, entails of having a good job that earns steady income, which i have not the slightest idea of.

And when i think about life, naturally i would go to think about love too.
I've been stumbling for it for at least the past 5 years.
It seems like whoever i falls in love with, would not fall for me back.
It's either i'm really good-for-nothing, have no good eyes for a partner, or plain luckless.
It's sad isn't it?
While you can see girls dying for guys who don't give a shit to them, or treating them like dirt, somewhere on this part of the Earth, you see people like me wishing for someone to love and don't get any.
And you get to hear people saying stuff like, "All good guys are dead or gay"
It's frustrating.
Am i not good enough? Am i not kind enough? Am i not helpful enough?
Or is it, am i not rich enough? Am i not good looking enough? Am i not talented enough?

I don't know, i don't think i did anything to deserve stuff like, girls treating me like shit after having me, when i did my best for them.
I don't think i deserve to be ignored either.
Much less, having to feel sad for someone, who i thought would eventually love me back.

For now, i guess i'm doing well.
I'm working at somewhere which i can get to see different kind of people everyday.
The good, the bad, the weird and the plain stupid.
I get happy, i get angry, i get amused, i get frustrated.
In exchange for that, i just feel fatigue.
I start to realise, life is pretty much not like what i thought it would be.
I used to stand firmly on the stance 'Treat how you want people to treat you'.
After this whole thing, it just shakes my faith in it, probably bringing it down to ground zero.
It seems, for this unreasonable world, it's just a plain myth.
Nothing more, nothing less.

I'm kinda tired.
Physically, mentally, figuratively, literally.
It seems like, i'm grower thinner, weaker and lighter.
I think if this goes on, something must be very wrong.
But even if it is so, i might not want to face it.
I don't want to be of any kind of burden to anyone.

I guess i've learnt alot.
I've really gotta rethink my life.

EOY 2011

2011-12-18T01:58:00.001+08:00

Hey guys.
Long time no see.

Yup, things are getting busier in work.
Well, it's December afterall.... Christmas. You know.

Anyways, today was EOY 2011.
Yup, the third EOY i've been. And... Sad to say, it's getting bad to worse.
But i did enjoy.
Not from the event, but from the accompaniment of my friends.

Honestly, i lost the hype of going to such events long ago.
Only reasons are bringing sis there, meeting friends, or singing.

Like i said just now, i'm so happy to see Fox~
I couldn't recognise her, for she was cosplaying.
My my~
She waved to me, and i still couldn't recognise her. Talk about my slow reaction.
Collected the stuff i ordered from Taobao from her.
And she was so sweet to add in clothes for Kathy and Alison.
I couldn't thank her enough.

And it's really my pleasure to see her today.
Just made my day.
We took some pictures together just now =D

The second picture being my favorite one.
You know, if my wig and make-up plan did go well, i really want to have a photoshoot with her. =)

The second person who made my day was Mandy.
So happy to see her. But she seems to be in a hurry.
So we just took one picture together only =/

Ahhh~
And i finally got my tail~~

Love it lots.
But i'm gonna have some modification to it.
Gotta make it strong enough to withstand my rough-ness =X
Gonna drop by West Mall someday to get the stuff i need =D

Ok guys~
Gotta go for now~
Nite~~

From Bugis to Far East

2011-11-20T00:19:00.001+08:00

Ah, today was just great.
Why?
We went from places to places.

And it started fantastically i'd say.

Well, after posting my blog post about last night this morning, and cleaning up granny's bedroom, we headed out for lunch.
We had lunch at Sakae, Aunt's treat.
Yup, it's been quite a long time since we've went there. (Since it was Sakura, until it closed down recently).

Well, i'm still missing Sakura though.
I mean look....

Especially i miss the Salmon Ikura Don filled with salmon on top.
But hey, as long as there is salmon, i'm a happy boy.

After that, we went to Mini Toons and saw this.

Yes, a printed toilet roll.
What a cool toilet roll.

After which, Sis and i went from Bugis to Far East to hunt for her wig extension.
But well, it's to no avail.
They don't have the color she wants.
Hai.....

But after that, we went to Raffles City to get something to munch on before heading to find Mom.

While Sis had Durian Puff, I had myself Chicken Bolognaise Puff.
How does it taste like? It taste like Bolognaise, duh.
...
Just kidding. It taste good.
Well, it still taste like Bolognaise, but the flavor of the crust compliments with the sauce, giving it a rather rich, savoury taste to it.

And from Marina Square all the way to Suntec City, Christmas decorations are well-lit in preparation for the festival.
And sure do they look good.

One of the reasons why i'd like the festival even though i don't really like it (Irony, i know.)

I like Suntec City's the most.
Why?
It looks like well-lit jellyfishes hanging from the ceiling.

Nice right? They do look like jellyfish, right?

Ah, on the side note, i was actually discussing with Sis.
About creating OC (Original Characters in short).
Yes, i was proposing to her that, using her Shiemi wig, we could actually create a fashionable character out of her. (Think Oshare =D )
And to add on, i might wanna create this idea of White Cat/Black Dog.
Well, no prizes for guessing correctly, i'd be the Black Dog.
Yes, i want to create a style inspired by our personality.
After all, i did mentioned that Sis's and my personality can be described as a white cat and black dog, respectively.

I'm getting the 'tails' from Esther.
It's much cheaper to get online than from shops.
My gosh, while online, you can get one at $5-10, and you can get at least 2 of these with the prices you pay if you get from shop.
How terrible is the profit margin. Hahaha~

Now then, i might want to get a wig.
But how do i get about getting one? =/

My my~

Pre-Christmas light-up

2011-11-19T11:22:00.001+08:00

Hey guys~
I suppose you guys might have saw a picture or two of what i'm gonna be talking about later on.
On my Facebook or Flickr, or somewhere else i don't know.

Yes, there was a light-up test last night for Christmas.
It's really good i'd say.
Or at the very least, that might be 'cause of the fact it's my first Christmas there.

But from the pictures of Christmas last year, i think last year's might be nicer.
Due to me liking shiny, cool stuff. Aww well~
But then again, i have not see it with my own eyes there and then, i can't say much, can i?

So Christmas this year is something like this

Hmmm... Perhaps this might be one Christmas i'd look forward to so far huh?
Since i never really like Christmas in the first place.

Personally, these few are my favorite shots.

Pretty abstract huh? I really like this.

The latter was supposed to be the intended turn out.
But the camera did not focus well, and it just took it there and then.
Well, but it turned out rather good. So i kept it that way =)

Well, and from a cable car far away, this is what i saw of Jewel Box.

Um, it's too dark and far for the camera.
But if you were to see it for you own, it's good. Simply fantastic.

Gonna bring Sis there someday to snap some pictures there, for both our profiles as well as 'portfolio' ^_^

Ok, that's about it.

Pre/AFA/Post

2011-11-18T00:48:00.001+08:00

Hey guys~
Finally i can upload all the pictures i want to upload here.
Geeee~

I'll be putting them in order of the days i guess....
Here goes...

Pre-AFA:
Remember about the Lamborghini i told you guys earlier on?
Yup, here's it.

Well, apparently there was a few guests having their wedding there (11-11-11, good date right? =D)

So this is one of their guest i suppose.
They are filthy rich to have it there, really. ( Likewise, filthy rich to own such a car)
rt
And after working here for 2 months, i found my new-found love.

Yes, buns with fillings.
Hahaha~ It taste really good ( It could also be that i'm too hungry =X )

Last but not least, i also got myself the new Fiend structured deck.

I know, it's childish for a guy my age to play it.
But hey, i miss my childhood. And.... I'm doing what i like and no one's getting hurt from it.
So it's all good, right? =D

AFA:
Well, i decided to go back to my previous style which i have not been touching for years.

My god, i've really forgotten how to style hair, giving it a nice out-of-bed style.
And i definitely hate my bangs. It goes curly and wavy. Ain't my liking at all.
But i'm proud of my style this time.
Love my T-shirt. It's from H&M, love it~

The event didn't appeal to me, as always these days.
But there's definitely few who caught my attention.

There's also a few familiar faces.
Saw Cloud at the entrance, doing usher duty.

Saw Aishah as Schoolgirl Miku (With Esther's wig i think)

Trevor, Jared and me =D Lookin' cool as always~

And Andy looking as good as always.

It's a pity i didn't get to see Esther the Fox. Aww well~

Particularly, there was this girl who had a Kuchisake Onna make-up.

My gosh, and boy she's good.
I like it. How i wish i can make such things as well. Awww well~~~

I also experimented on alot of pictures of myself in order to get a decent profile pictures for various sites.

My gosh, i know you're gonna say that i'm vain or what not.
But hey, vanity is the nature of man.
So here's some which i think are my favorites.

Post-AFA:
Headed to buy buns before work.
And the lady over the counter was kind to me, for she gave me a set of earphones FOC.
My my... I was very happy, and very grateful to her =)

Cute isn't it?

And i managed to get two of my favorite flavor of buns today. Lucky~~~

And sure did i enjoy my breaktime.

There was this event held at the Diamond Palace this evening.
And boy, sure do they came in well-prepared.
They even got their own entertainers.

Sure it is entertaining.
The lady's pretty cute, honestly from my point of view.

For today, i felt extremely accomplished.
I helped my guest to celebrate her boyfriend's birthday.
And it went on very well.
Her initial plan was to play violin piece of 'Happy Birthday' to him, while i get his cake to him.
And, reality did not stray too far from the plan.
In the end, they were happy about it.
And naturally, so do I.

Honestly, i go so far for my guests, i guess i do not want anything in return.
Just a happy guests who appreciates what i've done is all good.
I need no money or fame or anything. I just want a personal sense of accomplishment.
Afterall, if i'd really want fame or money, i'd have gone singing or DJ-ing... and ditch the attachment here instead, right? Hahaha~

Maybe i'm weird afterall. I don't know.
Phew~
Finally i'm done. And i'm off~~~~

While waiting my hair to dry....

2011-11-13T02:25:00.001+08:00

Yes, i just bathed.
I know it's damn late.
But, you know me, that bad habit of procrastination i need to curb.

So while i wait for my hair, which is wet from the bath, to dry...
Let me share somethings.

Yes, as much as i want to share the Lamborghini pictures i took yesterday (Or the day before),
I'm afraid i do not have the mood to do that.
For some reason, i feel kinda down.

I guess i might want to share how i feel somewhere.
I don't feel like telling it to anyone in particular (Since it might be more of a bane than a boon).
But i want an outlet where i can vent those feelings on, not to keep it and make me feel more worse.

So here goes.
It's been quite a long long time since i've been in an relationship (and even speak of one, come to think of it)
And interestingly, my colleagues wondered why i do not have a girlfriend (Even i want to know why, honestly)

I gave it a hard thought (Not too hard actually).
I have a reason to it somehow. Just that i didn't want to face it somehow.
You see, to be honest, if i were to more confident, i can point out all my strengths.

If you want to talk about looks, i've seen much average (or below-average) guys having girlfriend (pretty, in some case).
If you want to talk about talents, i can sing, i can write, i can play with music. I can be professional.
If you want to talk about personality, i don't think i'd lose out to anyone. I am gentlemanly at my own rights.
Isn't that what girls want? (That's the main reason why my colleagues don't understand why i still don't have a girlfriend)

But i somehow have the reasons to it.
I've start to realise that it always leads to me stumbling over courtships that goes nowhere.
I've been always courting people who won't fall for me.
But that's not the problem.
The problem is that, even at the start, i knew it would never work.
And that, unconsciously, my efforts for it is rather half-assed.
Meaning to say, i half-assed it, without me consciously realising it.

And what leads to this, i've actually realise the 'roots' to it.
Thing is, i've always fallen for this person in particular.
But knowing i can't be with her, no matter how hard i try, how much i wanted it.
But then, i want only her.
Thus, if i try to fall for others, i can't seem to do that.
You can say, whenever i fail at courting someone else, i would somehow tell myself i'm lucky or something.

This person has certainly influenced me.
But no matter what, i can never be with this very person.
Besides, i don't think she'll ever fall for me. (But if she do, it's definitely a dream-come-true)
My feelings for her, dated back for a long long time.

Even if she say things like 'This guy is cute/handsome/charming', i can only agree with her, even it feels so sour inside.
And even if one day (and definitely, eventually) she were to fall for someone and have a relationship with that person, i can only feel happy for her even if it's killing me inside.

And i guess only recently, she's getting back into contact with this someone who she likes sometime ago.
Somehow, i feel kinda weird inside.
It feels like an internal battle inside me, with one being happy for her, and another side sour/sad.
Thus, if the situation leads to (let's say) them being together, i can't anything but to feel really really sad, yet having to show that i am happy for her, i guess.

Whenever she says she lonely, i always wanted to tell her 'I'm here for you'.
Whenever she needs someone, i always wanted to tell her 'I can be the one'
When i see her message of saying someone flirting, i always wanted to tell her 'don't look at him, look at me please'
I've always wanted to tell her 'I love you'.
But the whole situation feels like holding a butterfly in your hand.

.....
Ah, my hair dried.
Time to get some shut eyes.
Hope these negativity can go away soon.

One Off Day

2011-11-10T00:44:00.001+08:00

Ah, after a bath.... I feel so energised....

Wait, it's actually the wrong time to feel that, but um...

Aww well....

It's somewhat a productive day, given that i have cleaned the floor, bought groceries.

I'm a proud boy, being proud of myself making my day a productive one =D

Anyways, just happy that we have Beh Teh Soh.

Yes, it's a kind of traditional chinese biscuit and sure it taste delicious.

I love it, and i ate lots of them.

Ah, i also changed Kathy's and Alison's get-up.

It's the first time for these coordinates (Though Kathy's was just a jacket on one of a past coordinates)

Especially Alison's.

Hers was kind of inspired by one picture i saw from the magazine which features Masuwaka Tsubasa.

And it's made up of what's left in their wardrobe.

And Kathy's coordinates reminds me of both those Hong Kong cop's civilian get-up as well as Yuri's in their MV of 'The Boys'.

It's just me, i guess.

Earlier on, i also borrowed a book which caught my attention.

Yes, a novel of Emily the Strange.

Boy, how i love that girl.

You see, black and white and bangs. My type~~

Errrr, only read a little, and i don't really get what's going on.

So far, the only thing i know is that the book is written in a diary-like style.

Interesting, right? Like a biography or something.

And later in the evening, i went to Ray's house.

He and Ah Yao was playing for the night.

Ah, it was great. Really.

I really enjoyed listening.

Initially, i brought the book, so that i can read and listen at the same time.

In the end, i didn't manage to read at all.

Ah, and we also had plans about Christmas.

Yes, when Ah Xian is back, we'll further discuss it.

Man.... The place we're gonna go, the pictures are giving me a hard time controlling myself not to salivate over them =X

Ah,gotta go now.

Ciao~~

The Sky

2011-11-07T22:55:00.005+08:00

Phew, after my night jog...
On a tiring day with sleepless night the night before.
Hmmm....
It's an accomplishment, you grant that? =)

Anyways, i think i'm getting really tired easily these days.
And come to think of it, i've been craving for Teh-C, and stuff.
Die, am i being a geezer soon?
Oh dear~~

By the way, i love the tin cans (Being random here, don't mind me)

I really like working at my work place.
Why? I get to see so many interesting things.
Um, i can even see scenic views.
You see?
Like today, i got to see the clear blue sky.

The picture turned out good, most probably due to the lighting.
And even at rainy days, there are great pictures too.

I also get to see cool cars too.
Like this one.

How cool is that? After all, it's a place for the riches, true?

As for staff meal, i had this.

Yummy isn't it? Well, though the portion wasn't enough to fill my stomach =/
And i had this on one of the days.

Hmmm... It was just ok~
Haha~

Ah, guess i'll share other things next time.
Ciao~

formspring.me

2011-11-06T00:57:00.001+08:00

Ask me things you wanna ask me about =) http://www.formspring.me/DrylNeo

Not now, then when?

2011-11-01T02:44:00.004+08:00

Gah, i have enough of procrastinating about it.
Rawr~

Ok guys, so it's gonna be Tour attachment then Halloween~

I had my Tour attachment some weeks ago.
By far, it's the best.
It's as if for the whole day, i was on excursion. How awesome is that?

We headed first to Underwater World.

The last time when even just the idea of getting was when Mandy and i was thinking of where to go for our 'date'.
We kinda dropped that, after knowing the price and went Orchard instead... (Right? XD)
And this time, i got in for free~~

It was a long long time since i was last there.
Alot of stuff have changed. Or it's just that i did not experience much of what is to be experienced in there.
But in anyways, i enjoyed myself.

There was pools where you can actually touch the fishes.
Certainly enjoyed myself with the ones that i can actually touch sting-rays.
Man.... They do splash water too. Got me all wet.
Here's a glimpse to the Rays =)

There's also pretty interesting things.

Like this, these eels. Cute aren't they?

And for once, i actually agreed with using flash.

Look, see the difference?
And...

The place itself, how great it is as a photo spot =)

Ah, i was also thrilled by the posters for Spooktacular (Sentosa's Halloween event) placed all around the island.
The character in the poster did give me the creeps. But at the same time, inspires me. (Kuchisake Onna?)

And i had a taste of the Curry Chicken served as staff meal.

My gosh, i love it. Rawr~~~
I crave for it~

Lastly, we headed to the Butterfly Park. (Well, we went to the 3D rides in the middle, but no photography allowed so aww well~)

Nice right? I was amazed by how beautiful Nature can make things to be.
Gah, we just gotta stop and appreciate such beauties, don't you think so?

And for Halloween this year, i've finally got to taste how a celebration for the festival got to be like.
My gosh, sure was i happy.
If only Halloween was everyday~~~

I headed to Sentosa one day after work (It was a pretty bad day so i headed there to chill out).
And first greeted with the sight of a horror-fied Merlion.

Then headed to the outside of USS, i saw this.

Yesss~ Halloween Horror Night is in Singapore. And how well did they make USS into a scene of hell, even when it's only a glimpse through the entrance.

Sadly, on Halloween day itself, we can't go there. The tickets was fully sold-out.
Bummers....

But well, roaming around Imbiah, i did get a few great pictures.

Ah, especially the last one, i got really inspired.
One day, i want to make-up with such stitches and wounds.
Just like Misery.
Really, i want to do something like that, like my own version of Misery.
Then walking down the streets on the night of Halloween =)

Call it a dream, you grant that?
Yes, i do not really agree with cosplaying actually.
But i do love doing such things.
You are still being yourself, you see.
That's also why i have no issues with people doing their own OC (Original Characters).

Anyways, gotta go. Late yo~

Mr Procrastination.

2011-10-31T00:26:00.001+08:00

That's me alright.

I have yet to post my days during the Tour attachment and Halloween, even when i planned to.
Tsk, just lack the drive to follow through.

Anyways, i'll end this quickly ya?
Catching sleep, 'cause there's work tomorrow~

So i was pretty intrigue with the idea of 'what monster would you describe yourself'.
Well, i found one to describe myself.

It's the different stories and aspects of Black Dogs.
Yes, like Barghest, Black Shuck and Dip.

So why would i describe myself as a death omen?
Well, my main point wasn't that.
But much more of other things.

Some was known to guide lost travellers and protect them, ladies at night and children, when they are playing and parent are not watching.
You know, for that aspect, i find it describe me.
I want to be someone who can guide people, i want to be someone who can protect people.
I guess, that's just me.

And besides that, Sis can be described as a 'White fluffy Cat', while me, a 'Black shaggy dog'.
So there you have it =)

There, short enough right?
Ok guys. I know i'm being random. But you know me, right?
Night~

It's been 1 month and a few weeks.

2011-10-17T00:09:00.001+08:00

Mom sold away our old CPU set.
Yup, goodbye to them, the memories of me wasting hours online with it, before i got my laptop.
Guess i'm just that sentimental...
Ok, not a good example but aww well~~~

Yes, it's been more than a month now, since i've started working there.
Honestly speaking, i've learnt alot of things, and having great experiences there.

I mean, just getting to work is a privilege.
Going to work on a cable car trip which costs $24 per single trip, i got it free.
I saw a TV actor (don't get too excited, he's Singaporean but still..) within my first month.
See alot of different people from different countries (tourists), understanding their culture (both good and bad).

But seeing Japanese and talking to them, i've realised how bad my Japanese is, even before i started speaking to them in their language.
Which makes me realise, stop singing in Japanese might be a good choice afterall.

Ah, but in service line, there bound to be cases where you get scolded for absurd reasons, by guests.
Yup, i had my fair share, even just in such a short time.
Linda got it worser than mine, i felt bad about it.

Yup, you see great people, but at the same time, you see assholes too.

Generally, my colleagues treat me very well.
Perhaps it's due to the fact that i'm the only guy in the department, and everyone else are ladies.
People there are nice. It's good so far, i guess =)

And to a person who loves photography like me, working there is like a treat.
I get to see great scenery.
And i get to take them.
Look~

Nice right?
Sorry for the spam of the sky line though.

And their staff meal are good too.
Like this one, Buttered rice with BBQ chicken.

I like~

Ok guys, gotta catch my sleep.
The only down-side so far, it's that i get very tired easily these days.

New Blythe i instantly found a liking to.

2011-09-17T11:15:00.005+08:00

Ok, this is gonna be a real short one.
But i just find that i must share it with you guys.

Oh my gosh.
Blythe is finally producing a Black-haired Blythe after so long.
It's doesn't matter to me whether she is a product of collaboration.
What matters to me is her style, which appeals to me the most.
And if you can remember, i want a Black-haired Blythe all along.

I really want this.
As much as i want Alison the other time.
But the catch is this.
She's very very expensive.
The tentative price is 26,250 yen, which is roughly about S$400++.
How can i have such amount of money by October.
Man.... T^T
But i really want her.... Or at the very least, a Black-haired Blythe with long straight hair =(

Oh yes, and if you want to read more about her, here's the link to her design illustration.

It's fun =)

2011-09-16T21:44:00.001+08:00

Salom~

And if you're wondering what is this.

It's what i learnt from my guests from Iran while i was at work.

It means 'Hello' in Iran.

How fun. Learnt something new today =)

Anyways, work has started and, i find myself quite enjoying it.

It's quite fun. People there are nice. And the scenery there is lovely.

There's really alot which i can take....

Which is why i am so relieved that i had a camera phone with me.

So happy~

Anyways, these are the pictures of sceneries i took while at work.

And also, lucky me had food tasting on Wednesday.

Such instances don't happen frequently.

And on my second day at work, i get to enjoy that.

It's really lucky of me.

And the food for tasting are..... Superb.

Come on, it's one of Singapore's pride in terms of culinary, how can it not be good?

But there were some which i can't take.... Since they are beef....

It's a bummer, isn't it? But i shall still stick with what i should follow.

In the end, i could only enjoy a few stuff.

Since some i can't take, and some others were 'hot stuff', finished in a while's time.

So left with only some.

Anyways, the ones i really enjoy.... I will commit them into memory.

They're really good.

Personally, i like the smoked salmon alot. It is really good.

And yes, the last picture there.... It's Tiramisu.

Ah, there's a strong taste of Kahlua to it... Lovely~~

And yes, following the ladies in my department, we 'attacked' the desserts first.

That's why, i enjoyed quite alot of the Tiramisu there =)

Speaking of following the ladies, i am the only guy in my department.

Yes, all the other members are ladies.

So you can say, i'm the only thorn among the roses =X

But i think it's nice. Afterall, i prefer working with ladies, than to guys.

And on a random note, i got rashes recently.

It's really very uncomfortable.

I still can't figure out the cause for it.

It could be the un-washed new uniform i wore the past few days.

It could be the locker which is very very dusty, and i have not yet cleaned till this morning.

It could be my bed.... having bed bugs? 0.0

The last one was rather far-fetched, but, i'm really scared if that happens.

I just hope the rashes die down soon.

Orientation, not the first day yet~

2011-09-12T21:24:00.001+08:00

Hey guys~
Ah, back at home and relaxing.
I'm so so sleepy.
Didn't catch a good night sleep last night.
Guess i was nervous =X

Anyways, i love today. Had so much fun~
I made new friends, and though an early day to wake up to (and particularly a sleepless night before), i actually enjoyed the day.
It definitely made me look forward to tomorrow and the day after =)

So started the day waking up, and felt rather accomplished that i didn't lie in.
And i reach Habourfront about roughly 45 minutes earlier, with so much time to burn.
Walked around the area till Linda arrives.

Ah, so we boarded the bus and headed to this place in Sentosa called Ficus Point.
The place was fantastic. I love it. It looks like an apartment for rich people.

Don't you think so?
And guess what? It's a building of recreational facilities for the staff to enjoy.
Like gym, pool table and even a karaoke room. How nice, right?

While there was breaks for the orientation progammes, there were food too.
Yes.... Take a guesss.... What is in this bamboo steamer?

It's Siew Mai =D
And i took off a large portion =X

Greedy me, right? I'm a greeeeedy boy~

And also, i finally got my passes.
Yay~

But seems like guy's passes has no 'blinks-blinks' as compared to females.
But looks so nice =(
Awww well, also good, i won't look gay gay (As told by Sis) =DD

Last but not least, i also found something rather unusual.

Yes, it's an albino peacock.
How rare =)
Lucky me.

Ok, gotta rest soon.
Rather pooped.
Night~

Stuffs happened lately, and decision not yet decided...

2011-09-11T09:04:00.002+08:00

Hey~~

It's been a while huh? Is it?
Anyways,now i'm trying out the new blogger interface.
Looking cool, but it makes me feel like a fish out of water,
But it's all about getting used to things,right?

Yeaa, attachment's gonna start tomorrow, and it does gimme the unsettled-ness.
So, for the next six month, i'd be working and working.
And if i wanna do anything, i can only do it on my off-days, which i guess i'd most probably be slugging out at home.
Awww well.... At least it beats being in a hotel, right?

Ah, did a few things during my 'last days of freedom'.

Went to Orchard's H&M to shop before heading down to Sentosa's office for some official documentation thingy on Thursday.
Well, saw the pre-opening of the store the Thursday before did made me curious about it, as well as many people talking about it, plus the mini-hype behind it.
Guess our curiosity was rewarded.
Mom, Sis and I got clothes that we pretty much liked.
And the designs there and stuff were pretty much my taste.
Got a T for myself.
And while waiting for them to shop around the 3-storey building, i took some pictures here and there (Sis does it too, it's on her Flickr)

Yes, the boots did sparked my interest. $79.90 for a pair is pretty much ok to me.
I think most shoes in there are around that pricing. Pretty affordable?

After that and a lunch, we headed down to Harbourfront, where i left both of them at Vivo City and headed to Sentosa. (I didn't exactly ditch them, they had a great teatime at a cafe, enjoying pastries and tea without me.)
Anyways, it was just to pass some documents to the HR department in-charge there.
But while being 'lost' on that island, i saw things that are worth snapping down (as always).

Yes, that's a peacock there trying to seduce his female counterparts.
And while he was trying to avoid me, i was trying to snap a good picture of him.

Skipping to Friday night, after dinner, i went to Ray's place.
After returning back from Ajisen, we played games on his Wii.
And we have a drinking session too (Of course it's at his place)
Lemme see, we had B.... I can't remember the name, but it's with Kahlua, Franjelico and Bailey's, and i love it =)

And yea, Ray gave me his Kahlua. Yay~~ =D

Although i don't really like to drink, once in a while is fine, right?

And last but not least, yesterday, Sis and I went to TGX at the Expo Halls.
Hmmm.... I really lost interest in such conventions and all.
Seeing that there's nothing much that caught my attention, it wouldn't be too far-fetched to consider it as boring.
Guess, the only fun things was to meet friends there.
Saw Luna, and YSL and the others.

Oh yes, personally, i like the Stocking cosplay.
It was done by Andrea, who is another member of Kaya, but she doesn't seem to recognise me. Aww well~

Ah.....
Changing the subject, something's been on my mind recently.
For the past few days, i have been thinking alot about it.
I think, i should just stop covering Japanese songs.
No no, i'm not gonna stop singing or anything, but just for the time being, i don't think i wanna sing Japanese songs for now.
Sometime ago, i met my advisor-in-charge for my attachment, who is a Japanese.
Linda told him i knew Japanese, so he spoke to me with simple Japanese.
Though i know what he meant and all, i stumbled a little.
On top of that, i saw a few posts from some annoying guy about Korean music in the Japanese music industry.
As much as i do not agree with that guy, i have to agree on one part, that one should just sing the language they sing best in, their own language.
It's not that it's bad or what, but sometimes, it really sounds weird.

And all this, you must think, what does it have to do with me, right?
The thing is that, me who likes to sing songs, and love to sing alot of Japanese songs, is bad at Japanese language.
I can't converse in proper Japanese. I don't even know how to structure a proper sentence.
And with that, how can i sing?
I mean, it's like trying to fly, before you can actually walk.
It doesn't feel good.
And also, i don't want to be viewed as a fake.

So i really don't know....
Should i stop? I don't know.
But at the very least, i think i should learn how to speak in Japanese, before i decide to sing again in Japanese
So, in the meanwhile, expect my covers to be in English?

Photo trip around the City Area (As they claim)

2011-09-03T02:54:00.002+08:00

Today is really a tiring day, yet a fruitful and definitely fun day.

We went from Marina Square to Merlion Park, from Asian Civilization Museum to Clarke Quay, then to Liang Courts then finally Orchard Road.

And all was planned only at the moment.

I'm pooped....

But having said that, i'm here, doing my blog post about today's little 'misadventure'.

So it all started with me being late meeting them.

Yea, meeting time was 2 pm and i met them only after 3.

Must kill this bad habit of mine, especially when my future workplace will be at a 1.5 hour journey from my place. And it is an established establishment.

Anyways, we met at the atrium of Marina Square and decided to head to the roof of Esplanade.

Man... Sure it was hot.

It's the middle of the day and i was wearing black.

But aww well, that's the joy of being in Singapore, i guess?

But at day time, it's really good to take picture.

With enough light exposure, the pictures turn out good.

Don't you think?

Which only makes me more guilty about not bringing Kathy or Alison out.

They've been lacking love these few days.

After that, we headed to the Merlion Park.

On our way there, we saw this building which looks pretty much like those by the seaside.

True enough, it was named 'Boat House'. What a befitting name, right?

At the Merlion Park, what amazed me wasn't the Merlion, but the rainbow created by the spray.

But the spray just blows onto us.

As much as it feels good, we gotta shade away from it, right? Haha~

But overall, it was nice, the view from the stand.

Next, we went to the Asian Civilization Museum.

It was my first time there. And the first exhibits i saw amuses me quite alot.

Statues from old China with modern accessories, how amusing~

The special exhibits for this time was the terracotta army.

But i think it's the replicas of them.

What do you think?

We walked down to Clarke Quay, via Boat Quay.

It's been years since i walked along there.

It definitely has the early evening feel when pictures are taken there.

And it does have the relaxed, chill feel =)

On the random note, here's a few fierce crabs.

While i was suprised by their large sizes, they were pretty hostile.

They seem like they were ready to pinch me with their pincers any moment.

But anyways, we had our dinner at Songfa Bah Kut Teh, at the shophouse beside Central.

Yes, we had Bah Kut Teh, and it taste superb, just like the previous few times i was there.

Had my milk tea from Gong Cha too =)

And like always, Clarke Quay always have the great late evening scene as always (Dear gosh, what am i saying?)

You have to agree with it.

I can't help but to compare it with my last few excursion trips there.

Reminiscence, in a sense.

Likewise, it goes the same with night scene =)

We went Liang Courts and headed for its Kinokuniya there.

We fooled around.

You know, boys are boys. You can't beat that =D

And i saw this manga with this cover.

I will definitely show this to the hairdresser uncle.

I wanted this hairstyle since so long ago.

I want it, at least before i go for my National Service.

We headed to Orchard, walked there by foot.

On our way there, i was rather disappointed that i could not go to the outside of Singapore Arts Museum.

Heard there was a light display or something, sounds pretty awesome.

Caught a glimpse, and it saddens me even more.

Anyways, there was some horror movie screening outside National Museum of Singapore.

It was an old school movie, if you asked me.

And it actually has that ambiance.

It's much of a pity too, that we can't stay to watch, due to the lack of time.

Oh yes, why, you asked?

Ah Xian wanted to get a novel from Kinokuniya, but the condition was bad in Liang Court's, so we decided to head to Ngee Ann City's.

In the end, we didn't buy anything.

Oh yes, while passing, we saw the grand opening of H&M.

Wait, wasn't it supposed to be tomorrow?

Aww well, anyways, it looks cool inside.

Most probably i will head in tomorrow? If i'm there, that is.

Gotta catch some sleep now, guys.

Nite~

The very late post for Natsu Matsuri.

2011-09-03T00:44:00.001+08:00

Ah, it sure took me long, doesn't it?

Well, i was busy with my tests..... as well as watching Korean variety show.

Oh come on, it doesn't make sense for me to mug so hard.

It seems that, play comes first for me. And i don't seem to believe in mugging hard... Well, at not for stuffs like accounting.

Anyways, on the day of NatsuMatsuri, it was also the day for Singapore Toy, Games and Comic Convention (STGCC) as well.

So, since Sis gotta pass some stuff to her friend, we went before heading down to Changi.

And i think it's safe to say, i might have really lost interest in going to such events.

Honestly, i don't see much good cosplay these days, with other being failed ones, done pretty badly.

On top of that, there's nothing much done to make people anticipate and eager about such events.

But having said that, there's efforts done to salvage that for this event. Which spawns my regret of not going into the event space. They had invited Kipi, the pretty cosplayer which i'm pretty much a fan of. And i heard it wasn't too hard to take a picture with her.

There's still stuffs which pique my interest.

There's this Pyramidhead, which i find quite interesting, and definitely worthy of respect, thinking of how much effort has been put in to make such a costume.

The next thing which pique my interest would definitely make fangirl scream.

Yes, a dollfie of Sebastien.

I took a personal liking to him myself.

He's handsome. My my~

We headed to the event place of Natsu Matsuri after that.

It was clear sky there, perfectly good weather. But it's also a perfectly hot weather.

Saw quite a few familiar faces while on my way there, and even more inside the event space.

But it's very very crowded and thus, stuffy in there.

It was really hot, but you could say it adds up to the atmosphere of a standard summer festival, you grant that?

We went to play with this water yoyo game booth.

Well, Sis played it, and i should've too.

Aww well, hope there's a next year.

We only got one. So awww, boo hoo~

We had dinner there too. And we sat along the corridor of the classroom to had our dinner.

I had Tonkatsu Don.

Initially, it was teriyaki pork rice. But i switched it with Jun Yao (Yes, i'm like a spoiled brat here.)

Finally, i took a evening picture of the event.

Wanted to take it last year, but silly me forgot to bring battery there, remember?

Anyways, we went to play some game booth's games again.

Didn't win much, but hey, a win is still a win =)

And we head back home after the event, fooling around.

We joked and all....

It just feels like we've returned back to the past.

But hey, it's even fun-er now =D

Anyways~

I'll move on to today's post~ =D

Mind's cafe... The place where time flies faster than in Rip Van Winkle.

2011-08-17T19:37:00.002+08:00

Oh yes, before i start anything...

Remember the fireworks video i took on National Day?

It's up on my channel.
And here you go~

You like it? =)

For yesterday, it marks the end of the studying semester of my RP life.

And we kinda celebrate it by going to the Mind's Cafe near Dhoby Ghaut.

Well, it sure does have the shop house feel.

You see...

The whole stretch was shop houses (If they are really one, that's another thing).

The cafe itself feel rather cosy, despite not having people inside (We're the first in, and including us, there's only three groups playing as of 6 PM).

Look, it feels relaxed, just like a good place chill out, with lots and lots of games, yes? =D

Anyways, we just went to picked the board games when we were seated.

First up was this game called slapagory (Hope i didn't get the name wrong).

The main idea of the game was to have two cards: Category and an alphabet.

So using the two cards, think of a name of something that has the alphabet as a start which suits that category.

Then slap on the pad and say 'I know, (Name of the item)'.

So we had much fun, with most of the time, laughing at where we thought.

The next game was much of a bane to me.

You see, i'm one who can't really control his laughter.

And the main point of the game was not to laugh.

The gist of the game was to tell jokes or act out a specific scenario.

Though some of them are rather lame, it still feels pretty funny actually.

We didn't really fancy the 'acting out of scenario'.

It didn't really have that appeal factor.

Some jokes were good, like these.

Did they tickle your funny bone?

We experimented on various games too.

But this one was a killer.

It suggests a large number of insane dares, which proves to be something i wouldn't really recommend for the faint-hearted. Haha~

There was this one, which suggest to dig your nose and eat the booger, as well as other rather obnoxious ones.

After the whole thing, we went to Dhoby Exchange to have our dinner.

No prizes for guessing correctly, we had Just Acia for dinner.

I had Ginger Dory (I can't remember the name on the menu).

I was quite enticed by the smell of the sauce.

It smells pretty good.

It taste equally good too.

Just that, honestly speaking, i don't really like Dory.

Right after dinner, Ray went to buy brownie for the four of us to share.

My my, it tasted heavenly.

Only making it much more a pity that i was so full up i couldn't eat any more =/

Ah~

It's really enjoyable~

Ah, and i think things are going for the better these days.

I really like how things are like now.

Spin City & Haru's Summer Fest.... And the last day of my poly life.

2011-08-15T22:38:00.007+08:00

Ah, it's gonna be a long long post.

But aww well~

As you can see, it was an eventful week, you could say.

I was busy preparing for them.

Nervous for them somehow.

First up, it was Spin City.

Honestly, the turn-up on that day was rather disappointing.

I was practically playing to no one on the dance floor.

Only Shai, Jane (from SP DJ) and Melvin made me feel rather appreciated, as well as a few of my juniors.

And in case you have been wondering how i look like when i am playing....

Here you go~~

Hmmm, how you think of it?

After that, i head off to TRCC for Yearbook photoshoot.

And i saw a few familiar faces i have not see for so long.

Yes, i had fun with Wenlin and Minyie.

My my... It's been a long time since i met them.

Ah, after that, i got my new phone.

Mom got me on the day before.

My my, i love it.

It's sleek, it's cool.

What more a boy can ask for?

And, i also got myself a new wax.

Gatsby's power spike.

Haha~

Ah, fast forward to Sunday's event.

Well, i sang Makka Na Ito, which was my 'suicide song'.

Remembered how much it killed me on stage.

But putting that aside, i really like my performance this time.

Honestly, it's my best performance yet.

I can't be too proud of it though.

Since it wasn't too great either.

With forgotten lyrics and bad breathing controls, as well as being nervous, i have more to be improved.

But anyways,i love it.

Here's the link to my performance.

And.... How do you find it? =)

By the way, do subscribe to my channel, ok?

Though i must say, i'm getting lazy these days =/

And look-y here.

I've gotta a Bingo ticket, and it's such a waste that i didn't get those 'last numbers'.

Otherwise, i would have gotten a toy bear plushie for Sis.

Aww well~ =/

And today's the last day of school.

Honestly, as much as i can't wait to leave the school for attachment, i felt that kind of bitter-sweet feelings towards it.

I think i will miss my friends. Especially those i won't meet often.

The facilitator today treated us to a hearty breakfast of Nasi Lemak.

Love it.

It's been a long time since i had it from that stall.

Ah... I guess, i will somehow miss things there huh?

But but but, i'm happy i ain't gonna be seeing some people.

Drama queens, braggarts and show-offs.

Bye bye suckers =D

So now's holiday.

Maybe i will really find time to unwind and have fun =)

So where's the fireworks?

2011-08-09T23:53:00.002+08:00

Hey people~

As you can see from the picture above, we had a game of board game.

It's Pandemic. And it's a tough game to play, but all the more fun it is =)

Anyways, the day started with going to the temple to pray Grandpa and my relatives who has passed on.

And had lunch before heading out to find Ray, Wayne and Ah Xian.

So, after meeting up with them, we headed to Istana, only to find out that it was not open for viewing.

And thus onward to Funan the IT mall, where this board game comes to play.

You see, we went to this cafe by the name of Minds Cafe in the mall.

We had this package whereby $10 per person and you could play all you want till 6 with free-flow drinks.

So, we stumbled with this game, with the help of this handsome Ang Moh service staff.

And he explained the details of how to play the game.

So for the next hour or so, we played and lost the game, repeatedly.

But it's really a great game that's worth your time to waste, honestly-speaking.

After that, we decided to head to see the firework display later on.

Initially, we wanted to meet up with Thien Sen, but it seems i messed up on my directions and the roads were blocked off, so getting to where he were was practically impossible.

We ended up watching the fireworks at Marina Square.

While Ah Xian took photos using his new lens, i took a vid of the fireworks.

Love the display this year.

There were much more variety, if you asked me.

There was this heart-shaped firework, but the one i liked most was the one that ends up shimmering, like diamond or gold dust drops.

Well, i guess i will post the video tomorrow in school.

Upload speed there is superb.

And it's a waste not to make good use of it, right? =D

A lifetime, and putting it down.

2011-08-07T23:44:00.000+08:00

Before i start anything, Try listening to this song.

Crying Rain - Girugamesh

Heard of this in Riven's 3 choice of songs to sing for upcoming event.

The more i listen to this, the more i like this song.

Erisa told me my voice 'resembles' the lead vocalist of this band.

Gee, i can't even reach his notes.

Man....

Anyways, after a chat with mom, i realised, some dreams can never come true.

Not for this lifetime, not for this lifetime i'm living now.

And yes, one of them is having a career as a singer, and nothing else.

Not in here, not now.

Why? I don't have the money, and my family don't have the resources to support me.

You see, sadly, we are the people who can't afford to chase their dreams.

We can't do alot of things which others can afford to do.

It's pretty sad to say such stuff, but it's how reality works.

Not in here, where things like 'Creative movements' or 'we support creativity' are said or done, yet the society just prefers whatever that earns more money in the end, rendering the earlier things mentioned mere bullcrap.

But having said those things, i don't plan to give up, or throw my dreams away.

I'll let it be my sideline. And take intelligent opportunism.

Like hell i will give up singing.

Not unless i have to choose between something else more important than it.

And and...

Last night, i had a chat with Geok Theng.

Guess it's quite sometime since i really chatted with her.

You could say, i kinda enjoyed that, somehow.

And come to think of it, i have no reasons to hate her now.

I lost those reasons.

To be honest, i don't even feel the intense feeling i felt back then.

Maybe i was still thinking immaturely about it back then?

You could really say that i had already put those feelings down.

It's really meaningless to hold onto such things.

Besides, if you can't put it down, how are you able to take up another?

Anyways~

I think i have a mix to be confirmed =/

How awesome.... How dreadful.....

2011-08-02T00:44:00.002+08:00

Have you ever been in a situation whereby you feel happy and dreadful at the same time, on the same subject matter?

If you grant that, you could actually call it a 'love-hate' situation.

I guess that happens to me from time to time.

But for now, i have three.

Well, i'm happy i'm in it. Ecstatic, to be honest.

While i got what i wanted, i feel kinda nervous about it.

I don't really dread it, but rather, just have a deep fear about messing up.

After all, you know me, i'm prone to messing up.

So you see, first was my application for the upcoming Haru event.

I sent in my cover of Makka Na Ito by Plastic Tree.

And i got in.

Gee, i sent in my 'suicide song', noting how difficult it is for me to sing this song.

So far, response was good, just that i need to work on my falsetto (which is what killed me).

So it's a make-or-break thing on that day itself.

Next, Mount Faber called me.

I'm accepted there.

But yet to know whether i'm in GRO or F&B.

But i really wanna be in the GRO. I wanna interact with guests.

The job scope is great, just that the distance there.

Hai.....

Will 'love overcome all distances' this time? =/

Last but not least, i finally got my spot for Spin City.

It's my first one, and sadly my last one too.

Though it's just a warm-up set, it's good enough for me.

But the problem is, i'm the most prone to mess up when i'm on the decks.

Tsk...

But it's gonna be so so cool.

I'm gonna give it my all, my best.

After all, it's my last. Hahaha~

Ok guys.

Gotta go~~

Street Fest 2011

2011-07-24T00:07:00.005+08:00

Blink of an eye, 2 years has gone.

And the third Street Fest i had went.

Ask me how is it?

And i will tell you that, i heard bad bands, and i definitely heard good ones.

So good, they really inspired me.

So much so, i told Derf, "5 years later, i wanna be at least near their standard."

Anyways, i was there about 1 PM plus.

Stayed there to listen to a number of bands...

And it's not their fault actually, the sound system was the culprit.

It made the instruments' volume cover the vocal's.

And it turned out that the vocal's sound too soft.

We went off to walk around in Vivo City.

And this interests me.

My my. Roasted meat. Yummy~

And really had fun with the guys from JCIG.

I really had good laughs with them.
So funny, so fun~ =)

Back to the auditorium, the bands were playing.

And i guess they really put the best shows at the back.

There was this band Kiseki, who had a vocalist who reminds me of Ruki so much.

Even the way he sings.

I guess the crowds like him too =)

Oh yes, there were fireworks from Universal Sudios Singapore too.

So cool.

So nice.

I really love fireworks alot. Haha~

And of course, the band Renaissance was the one which inspired me the most.

The vocalist was really awesome.

He covered two of Alice Nine's which brought back memories =)

He's really cool~

So does the Guitarist. Hahaa~

They really inspired me.

Hahaha~

Man~~~

Oh yes, on random, i also got myself a copy of Popteen... Overdued =(

Aww well, somewhat, better late than never =)

Ah~~~ Looks promising.

2011-07-22T09:12:00.006+08:00

Hey guys.

Before i start anything, i want you guys to do this quiz Linda let me tried.

http://www.quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspx

How do you guys find it?

Pretty true right?

It's pretty awesome how true can we related to a quiz.

Well, at least it's true to me.

I got this for my result.

-------------------------------------------

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:

You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.

Your views on education

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:

Success in your career is not the most important thing in life. You are content with what you have and think that being with someone you love is more than spending all of your precious time just working.

What are you most afraid of:

You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

-------------------------------------------

How do you guys think? Does it fit me?

Hahaha~

Anyways, i had my interview with Jewel Box@Mount Faber.

Aww gosh, boy it's really a nice nice place.

And it'd really be my honor to work there, if i got in, that is.

Well, since Linda and me was going to the same place for interview, we went off together.

Yes, we partial-ed and head off Mount Faber.

Went off early, just in case that we lost our way or something, but that was highly unlikely.

But we did went to the wrong lobby (Which we thought was the ticketing lobby).

But hey, after that, we went up the correct building.

Which was really tall, like 15 storeys?

And we took the cable car ^_^

I think it's my first time taking it, as far as i could remember.

It's really fun.

I feel like a kid on a excursion to a new place.

And if you're just curious how high it could get...

Haha~

So, i guess if you're scared of height, it's not really recommended huh? =D

Ah, and the place is really awesome.

Scenic and all, you can actually see the city from there.

I didn't take it well, but yea, it's really awesome.

The restaurants are great too.

Love the Al Fresco dining bar.

I think it's called Moonstone.

Yea, all the restaurant are names after precious stone and jewels.

Guess it's not hard to imagine why they are, or why the whole place is called Jewel Box huh? =)

The next place i would actually talk about is the toilet.

Yes, toilet.

Not the kind which you have in mind.

But man... It's really awesome.

The view off the hilltop is really breath-taking.

And for the ladies.....

Ah, Linda took it.

No, there was no one inside. And we only took the scenery and the facilities (I'm no perv, ok?)

~~~~~

Honest. You've gotta go there if you can.

It's really breath-taking.

My guess is that at night, it'll be much more awesome, with the lights and all.

But well, we didn't stay till that.

But aww well, i really wanna see it~~~

I wanna eat there too, sometime~~~

Mmmm... I really hope i can get in there as Guest Relation Officer~

I should have done this last night.

2011-07-19T14:45:00.002+08:00

Yes, this is a post i should have done last night.

But well, chatting Ah Yao and Derf, i forgot this.

Aww well, i enjoyed myself pretty well ^_^

Ah, just gonna keep this short ya?

Ok~ Mom got me a new fragrance.

It's by Burberry.

Touch For Men.

And silly me was trying to take a picture of it for here.

And, after taking a few of it.

Then i realised i took it wrongly; i took the back of the box =_=

Anyways, the box was a good one.

Looks nice~

And the bottle, looks so so cool.

Ah, have yet to try it.

So i guess, i'll try it for my interview this Thursday? =)

And, Ryan's Mom and Dad got an Agnes B T-shirt from Hong Kong.

Lovely~

I love it~~ ^_^

Ah, recording mix later on.

Haha~

Anyways, i'll go first.

Post another post later on, perhaps?

At last? Spark?

2011-07-18T00:06:00.002+08:00

Ah~

I think today's a productive day... Sort of~

I planned two mixes.

So now all that is left is to record them and upload up Soundcloud, and send them in for 'evaluation'.

Mmmm.

Hope it goes well~~ And all.

And, i decided and narrowed down the list of songs that i should try for the event.

You see.

I have 'Guren', 'Kumo no Ito' and 'Sakurane' (Yes, the one by Piko).

Just have to memorise the lyrics.

And see i can put which at the back of my hand the fastest.

Haha~

But in general, i'm a busy boy, i guess.

Memorising lyrics, prepare mix, studying for test, preparing for interview for this coming Thursday.

Bought Hed Kandi's Twisted Disco 2011 online.

My my, i find myself loving it more than 2010's.

More tunes which i find myself more comfortable i guess?

But then again, like a man who knows no limit, i already planned the album to buy next.

My my, how can i not buy?

Beach house, my favorite genre =)

Hmmm...

But even so, i have no money now =/

Decisions....

2011-07-17T01:32:00.002+08:00

Ah, sent my application for Haru House this morning.

And they replied by the time i finished work.

They told me if i could change my choice of song to suit the theme of the event.

Hmm....

I have very limited choice on that genre =/

See...

I have listed a few.

'Guren' by The GazettE, 'Kumo no Ito' by Mika Nakashima and 'Mugen no Hikari' by Terra.

I have the same problem for these songs.

I can't memorise the lyrics =/

Aww well, i'll work that out as soon as possible i guess.

Ah, it's Ah Xian's birthday too.

And i covered a song for him as his birthday present.

Hope he likes it.

But it seems like he's pretty emo.

Hmm....

Hope everything goes well for him.

As for me, it's off-day.

So i guess i can afford to sleep late, and lie-in as long as possible.

Ah~ =)

Hmmm.... Another option.

2011-07-16T00:22:00.002+08:00

So you see, Sentosa called me this morning.

I was offered an interview for Mount Faber's attachment.

I applied for them, and some errors happened.

Thus taking a long time, i suppose?

Anyways, i accepted the interview.

There was two keywords that became the factor of me going for the interview.

First, they mentioned "...Retail..." which other details i couldn't remember clearly.

And next (the crucial one), "... we will be providing complimentary tickets to cable car..."

Yes, make no mistake about it.

Complimentary ticket = free cable car ride.

It's been a long time since i last took a ride on a cable car.

So long ago, i couldn't remember.

Anyways, it's gonna be cool, that's for sure =)

Ah, it's cold now.

Like air-con cold now.

I love such weather.

Guess it's like a reward for withstanding the terribly warm weather for the past few days.

I'm grateful.

Anyways, i'm not too sure about myself these days.

I'm getting more and more reluctant to be proud of myself.

And my personality is seemingly getting more and more volatile.

I'm not being myself these days.

This is bad.

Ok, a quick one before i sleep.

2011-07-14T01:06:00.003+08:00

So today's my UT2 for Human Resource.

Hmmm. I doubt i'll be doing well for it.

After all, miracles don't happen twice.

I mean, things work whereby you would get a grade A for test, by not studying and playing games.

It is either that you are just plain lucky, or you are a genius.

I'm daft, so i'll rule out the latter.

Thus, i guess i'm just so lucky.

Anyways, i'll keep this short.

I'm sleepy, and it's already 1 in the morning.

Watch this.

Familiar?

I posted this 2 years ago.

It took me only now to look up its meaning.

And guess what?

It just reminds me of her.

What a joke.

I was listening to this when i first met her, and was with her.

And to now realise that, this song just describe how she could have possibly felt at the moment she was with me.

But hey, now that i think back, i couldn't hate her now.

I lost all the reasons to.

Thinking back, there's no point in that.

It's all the past.

And come to think of it, i feel like chatting up with her.

I don't know.

Anyways, you guys must be guessing that i am emo.

For some reasons.

Like thinking back about my relationship with her, or being ditch, or blah blah blah.

I don't know.

But i am not.

I'm not the least emo.

I'm just stating facts, and probably wondering why things are happening.

Like you see.

"But if that 'he' could be me, how happy will i be. But, i doubt she'll ever lay her eyes on me"

It's just merely relaying the feelings i had the other time. And perhaps when i read her tweets or FB status (This is from another person now, in case you are guessing)

I'm rather curious.

Aren't you curious too?

Why people say things like "All good guys are dead" when there's someone so good standing right in front of them?

Or like "I want to fall in love" when they are not doing anything for it.

I must admit i am guilty of committing the latter.

But, now that i realised it, i didn't see having a relationship as a 'i must have it, otherwise i will die...' now, as opposed to what i used to think.... I guess?

For now, i guess my stance for it would be just 'If it's there, it's there. Otherwise, either i work hard for it, or i shut up about it.'

Aww well...

I guess that's me for ya.

Lesson learnt...

2011-07-09T00:44:00.003+08:00

I guess for the past three years or so...

Or perhaps 2 yeas ago, i have been just someone who doesn't care about what is going around me.

I couldn't be bothered.

Call me aloof.

But i just can't seem to care.

Guess you could say, i didn't place any emphasis on fame, achievement etc.

You could say, i was 'sleeping', didn't care about anything so much.

But i guess, i just have to care about it.

I have to wake up.

Within this time-frame of 3 years or more, i have actually achieved much more than what other had achieved, or even wished to achieve.

But i said nothing of it, spoke nothing of it, and felt nothing of it.

I wasn't even the least proud of it.

I didn't spoke much of those things that i have achieved.

So much so that no one ever believed that i could have done so much things.

And that i am the mere personification of 'Never judge a book by its cover'.

Perhaps as you can see by now, i am starting to be more proud of myself and my abilities.

If i want to be appreciated by someone else, i have to appreciate myself first.

After all, "If you can't love yourself, how can you expect someone to love you?"

Maybe being in a competitive environment wasn't a bad thing after all.

It actually wakes me up, and see what i really want.

It makes me realise that by making others happy, you might not necessarily be happy.

And most of the time, it is impossible to make everyone happy.

Thus, moral here is that i've gotta know who are worth for me to go that extra mile for.

10 weeks have past, and i have to be 'awakened' now.

I can't stay in that slumber and being 'drunk' all the time.

I've gotta show those empty vessels that, substance isn't shown by speaking alot of empty words.

Substance is that kind of things you show by your performance.

And while i was in my 'slumber', there was alot of opportunities.

But i just gave them a pass.

Now that i want that, i just missed it.

Lesson learnt. "Grab whatever that is within your reach, no matter how meager."

Gee, then again, it might just be a good thing that for now, i don't have a girlfriend, or a significant other.

I don't want her to see me in such a state, such an ugly state.

Tainted by angst, hatred and unjust.

Aww well, just let's things be then...

Serendipity?

2011-07-07T22:34:00.004+08:00

Ah, i did so many things today.

Isn't that good?

What did i do?

Went to buy my first copy of Pop Sister.

Finally collected my Secondary School Graduation Certificate.

Bought Mom's birthday present.

And jogged, this evening (After so so long).

What's cool is, i think i found my own way of warming up my vocals.

Ok~

First i'll talk about finally landing my grubby hands on the latest copy of Pop Sister.

Planned very long ago already~

And Miss Mandy is my accomplice. Hahaha~

Look, Tsubasa Masuwaka's looking cute on cover as Milky Bunny.

How can you not resist the temptation to buy?

On the side note, have you checked her PV out?

It's so cute, and she has a great voice which doesn't sound like how you would thought she would sound like (Gee, that's a mouthful, i can't imagine saying that out =/ )

Anyways, sadly things didn't turn out as expected (I'm a bad planner and a bad surpriser T^T )

And we went back after getting the copy.

Reaching the station near my Secondary School, i realised there something i have to collect.

Hmmm, took me 3 years to remember. Silly me.

Anyways, it just looks so cool. Somehow.

Don't you agree?

Took a long journey bus back ( Not exactly a long one, since it loops.)

It's nostalgic.

Always taking it that manner to go back home.

Enjoyed so much.

I guess i miss the past pretty much too. Haha~

Its simplicity.

Then head to my Primary school to collect things as well.

But sadly, it's not there anymore =(

But aww well, took some pictures actually.

Though it changes alot, but there's still some part that remains.

I like this pond alot.

It just brings back alot of memories.

And guess what? It is somewhat the source of a very bad habit i have now.

Anyways, i got Mom her birthday gift, from Forever 21.

Sadly, she didn't like it. Due to the visual prints on the shirt.

Otherwise, she would've liked it alot.

Aww well~

I think i'll just end here.

So tired~

I wondered.... But i think i understand now.

2011-07-06T23:48:00.002+08:00

I'm sorry i have been ranting on things like "I hate going to school" or "I hate the people there".

And i don't think i will stop this, not until the end of this semester.

I am aware i must've sounded like an early teenager venting his frustrations on his blog, lamenting and ranting and all.

But hey, sometimes, it just gets on my nerves.

And i guess it's just a way to vent those feelings.

I just can't stand them, those condescending people.

Come on, mocking people who is trying hard doesn't make you smart, or look cool.

It just makes you a jerk or a bitch.

And i don't get it.

What's the point of acting cool and bragging about your grade?

That doesn't make you cool, that makes you a nerd, which you are now.

Come on, let's face it.

Your grades don't make you cool. It's your personality.

And if you personality is so fucked-up, how can you be cool?

People won't described you as cool, they will describe you as fucked-up, as you are now.

And yet another one, who brags about grades too.

And woa? You brag about practically every little achievements you make.

Well, i envy you for that. For making a mountain out of a mole hill.

I clap my hands for you.

There's more i'd like to say.

But it's getting late.

Kinda tired to do so.

Haha~

But i must admit that i've somewhat changed into a harder person of some sort.

I realised that i can't always be a nice guy.

Nice guys don't finish last, nice guys dies first, from being used in this fucked-up world.

I'm getting more and more angsty these days.

And i don't think this feeling will go away... Not until i finished my term in here.

Now i get why people change, especially nice people who ended up as bad guys.

It's the environment.

Like the Chinese says, "You're dyed red when you're close to vermilion and you're dyed black when you're close to ink".

To think i'll end up like scums like them too. Hahaha~

I laugh at myself too.

I really hope i can break away from this soon.

Before i change into someone i hate myself to be.

Or even change into 'that person'.

The fun with Kaya

2011-07-06T00:59:00.002+08:00

Ah~

Tomorrow (Or is it later on? Hmmm....) is UT2 for Service Quality and Professional Etiquette.

But the problem is, i have not yet studied.

I lack the feel of studying it.

I'm more keen on studying lyrics of the different songs i want to cover, than to study for test.

Which isn't very good, but that's what i feel at this point of time.

And earlier this noon afterschool, went to join the guys (and a lady) from Kaya Brigade.

Man... And it was enjoyable.

Listening to them recording stuff.

And listening singing as a group.

And generally just playing around.

Honestly speaking, i never like being in groups, except for being in Big 5 or Boliao, or being the 'three musketeers' with Ray and Ah Xian.

Perhaps due to the very fact that i hate groupies.

But i actually like being in the Kaya Brigade.

I don't know why. They're just nice people, i suppose.

A fresh taste unlike the people i see in school.

Similar to the kinder people in school (Namingly, friends)

Aww well,i guess like-minded people just get together and clicks pretty well.

Ah, for now.

I just feel so sleepy.

Guess i'll be turning in sooon.

As soon as my hair dries...

After Ignite, i know.....

2011-07-03T10:25:00.004+08:00

Ah, it's a pity i couldn't go both Ignite yesterday and Haru's SYF.

Man.... Heard both are really awesome.

But aww well, had fun at work as well.

I went for Friday's show.

Man...

It's awesome.

Love the music from Giants Must Fall and Sixx.

Totally rocking.

There was this guy band as well.

The vocalist's so freaking awesome, i don't think i can reach his 'level' anytime soon.

Here's some picture i took.

Tried to take it good, didn't turn out as expected.

But well.... There's a first time for everything =)

I like Giants Must Fall.

Love the vocalist for her voice.

She can do Lounge or Ambience with her voice very well, in my opinion.

I love Sixx too.

They remind me very much of Mihimaru GT.

Love their urban,funky groovy style.

You guys rock ;D

Ah, and it's a pity i could go for yesterday's Haru event.

Heard there was a free karaoke session after that. Man...

If i could, i would so wanna join the event =(

But aww well, i'm so gonna join the next event.

Most probably gonna try Glamorous Sky.

Found a new way to cover.

So, keep your eyes keen here ;D

And you know, now i know why i couldn't find anyone.

It is 'cause i don't love myself enough.

Don't have the courage and confidence to be proud of myself.

And since 'I can't love myself, how can i love another?'

So i've decided, i have to be proud of myself, i have to have self-confidence.

Come to think of it, i think should be.

I mean, who could become a finalist for a DJ-ing competition, with knowledge of the music just 3 months prior?

Who could awe his audience or at the very least people who hear him sing, be praised and likened his voice to one of his idol ?

So maybe i might be something after all.

I just gotta believe in myself =)

Hmmm... It's summer already?

2011-06-30T21:56:00.004+08:00

Ok, so Klapsons called me.

If Tricove (Or Empire States@iluma, if you preferred it that way) calls and confirm,

I will have to make a decision between both.

Just like the classic scene where the guy choose between two girls.

My my, how can i choose? Both are good deal, with their not-so-good points.

It's either shifts which favors me very well, but ended up in hotel industry still.

Or working in another industry, but having not being able to have free weekends.

You see, this is the dilema i'm having now.

I have to think thoroughly.

It is a five-month period i have to go through smoothly.

If i want to get my diploma, that is.

But then again, no matter where i go, i think it is a good thing.

A fresh start. A breakaway from the mundane life of going to school.

It is like an escape to it, especially when you're tired of it.

When you are practically tired of not the problems and questions that are given to you by school, but the fucked-up antics by some of your peers there.

I still can't get it.

Why so competitive?

You can't carry grades to hell. (I wonder how many times i have emphasise on this)

Come on, life is not just about grades and test results.

Life's much more than that.

And also, having the facilitator's slides doesn't mean you gained the holy grail of the problems.

That's not the 'correct' answers. They are just 'best suggested' answer.

Come on, you can't be that daft,right? Especially when you guys are supposed to be smarter than people like me.

Pfft, aww well, shall not be too bothered by such people.

Should never waste my Summer, being bothered by the likes of them.

Ah~~

Summer. Lovely summer.

The season of love~

Ah, two year since my last relationship.

It wasn't particularly a good one. Worst one, if i were to say.

I really wanna fall in love.

But i'm scared. I'm scared of the sad feeling that love entails.

Well... That's why i always say,

"Love is like a fire, and we are just mere moths attracted to it."

But honestly, i just want someone who i can love, and love me back.

Someone who can love me for who i am.

Understands me, even when the whole world misunderstood me.

Someone who can appreciates me, for the things that i do and all.

But aww well....

I guess, no one will want me.

Who would like someone like me? Who has no looks, neither talents.

Don't you agree?

Mmmm... It's ok if it's another lonely summer.

But well, it'd be real nice if i can spend my summer with the one i love.

Though for now, i have not seen that very one yet.

But all these... It's all fate.

Who knows, i might meet my fated one tomorrow?

Who knows, i might just die tomorrow?

No one knows the future.

So....

Aww well~~

Spoils from JUICE and Cosfest XI

2011-06-28T12:07:00.008+08:00

Hey guys.
Yes, two-days-late post and i'm not really done yet/
Yes, i'm pretty busy.
Just finished my mix yesterday night.
And preparing for my interview for both later and tomorrow.

Well, i'm in a dilema.

You see, the one i'm going for later on, was an error.

I shouldn't be going there in the first place.

But yea, twist of fate, i'm going for the interview.

I'm more into tomorrow's interview.

Hey, Iluma. You get what i mean? =)

Anyways,past weekend was a blast.

Went with Ray to Zouk for the JUICE DJ Quest.

Ah, first time going there. And man... It's a nice place =)

But then again, i'm not a very night-life person.

So aww well....

Anyways, i've got a goodie bag from there.

And man....

I like them.

Ah, and for the following two days, it's Cosfest.

Man... My third year there.

And....

I prefer the previous years.

But aww well.. I still had fun =)

Enjoyed seeing some of Kaya Brigade members performing.

They're really good. How i wish i could join them up on stage too.

Aww well, next time~

And if you asked me, i find the event itself just ok.

There were good cosplayers, as well as bad ones.

But it seems, what catches my eye was non-cosplayers.

For example

Isn't she cool?

And though this is a cosplay, but it's my favorite shot out of the whole album.

And this green thing, is so so cute.

It shuffles. Haha~

Mandy brought her Pop Sister there too.

My god.... Tsubasa Masuwaka.

And more of her.

Ah~~

I died out of her cuteness there.

I so wanna lay my grubby hands on a copy full of Tsubasa.

But man.... Sure they do run out fast =/

Ah, gotta go.

Top you guys up tomorrow or something.

Or adding it up here.

See how things go....

I'm tired.

2011-06-16T22:49:00.003+08:00

Ah, evening guys.

Err, such a cooling evening.

Good night to sleep in and not wake up =)

Ah, went to hospital with mom to check-up.

And then, we went to Chinatown for lunch.

And desserts.

Lovely~ =D

It feels so nice.

To take a break from school.

Especially after the holidays, i kinda dread school.

Perhaps it's due to the lingering after-holiday effect.

But i'm so tired to see people being so competitive.

Tired to see people looking down on another, just because they think they are superior than others.

I'm sick and tired of seeing this.

But i guess, this is life, as they say.

Why can't people just have fun?

Why can't people just enjoy the days in the fun way?

Is grades that important?

Is being in the merits so important?

Maybe i'm just the oddball here.

Maybe i don't see the worth of it, while everyone does.

Maybe i really am a weird ball. But i don't want to see everyone to be unhappy just because of such things you can never bring to the grave with you.

To let it spoil the harmony of everyone.

Then again, it might be just me being overly sensitive again.

But Mom did talk some sense to me.

Which i think it's pretty true.

Sometimes, people around me view me as a clown, of my efforts to make them smile or laugh.

And most of the time, they'd most probably take me as a joke.

Sometimes, i couldn't help but to feel so too.

I must really change my personality.

Otherwise, i will only get stuck in this endless loop, everywhere i go.

I really have to see who i should let myself be myself, and not just to any Tom, Dick and Harry i see.

I should really change.

formspring.me

2011-06-16T19:58:00.001+08:00

Ask me things you wanna ask me about =) http://formspring.me/DrylNeo

Why 'Tsuki No Uta'?

2011-06-10T23:28:00.004+08:00

Evening people~

Ah, here's the super late post if you ask me.

Gee, after the event, so busy, with work.

Working off my two weekends.

So freaking lethargic this morning.

And i slept in class after school.

It's those kind of deep sleep.

I guess it's called fatigue...

Anyways, i'm a little late for Haru's mini event that was held last Friday.

Yup, the one which i joined, and sang.

I enjoyed it alot.

I'm nervous still. Not something very good.

But i do enjoy being up on stage =)

So i remembered being asked "Why you chose this song?"

I just replied as i liked the song.

But honestly, there's deeper meanings to it.

I was too nervous to say, neither i want to make a melo-drama out of it.

It was the song i always listen to while waiting for the message of the person i like to reply.

Those messages takes ages to reply, even though it was just simple answers.

And evidently, she doesn't seem like she cares anyways.

But i've waited. Waited and waited, feeling sadder each moment i wait for her.

So i kept listening, and understood, and tried to sing it.

Slowly slowly, it became what it is now.

But that was so many years ago.

But anyways, it really spurs me on to sing even better and wanting to sing more.

It spurs my desire to be a singer.

Like just now, i just recorded my cover for 'Unwell', a track by Matchbox Twenty, which i covered when i was entering the singing competition in Primary 6.

I wondered how i would sound like now.

Thus i tried.

It's an A Capella, since i do not have the instrumentals for it.

Besides, when i sang it last time, it was as it is, without instrumentals.

I wanna try to do the same style of cover for 'Wherever you will go' by The Calling.

But i was stopped by Sis. I was singing too loud too late.

Aww well, i'll try tomorrow.

Nite~

12 more hours.

2011-06-10T01:57:00.002+08:00

Evening guys... (Or was it morning?)

I'm keeping this short.

I'm nervous.

I'm nervous about tomorrow.

I'll be performing at Haru Bazaar.

And, though singing my forte, i'm afraid i might messed up.

I've gotta keep myself cool.

Calm myself down.

And, have fun.

Anyways, i'll update you guys tomorrow.

Gonna get some shut eyes.

Me and my girls, or My girl and Me? 0.0

2011-06-08T00:28:00.003+08:00

Ah, i'm kinda bored.

Even though i'm on AFK mode in Maple.
I'm really kinda bored of it, even after achieving 3rd job advancement recently.

Well, which supposedly is fun.

Anyways, i'd sent in my choices for my attachment, that i'd be going for later this year.

Apparently, i've opted for something other than hotel, though still hospitality-related.

Both are more of a management kind of thing.

Isn't that good? Training me to be a manager, my ambition of following Mom's footstep.

Now that i have sent it in, the next big issue regarding to it is whether i got the places or not.

As well as, if i can ace the interview or not, and get the job.

But aww well, let's not worry to much for now.

What will be will always be =)

Ok, anywho.

Just had a wardrobe change for the girls, though it revolves with pretty much the same clothings.

It's a sad thing to have such a poor owner huh? Haha~ I felt kinda bad for them.

For now, i feel like Kathy and Alison are like 'Ah Beng with her Ah Lian'.

Why? I'll snap it and post it up somewhere ok? =)

Anyways, i just felt like talking about them.

Some little Q&As about them and all. Haha~

So most probably, you guys might've asked "Why a guy like you collects dolls?"

Well, i've heard a plenty of those.

Some even questions my sexuality, which i find totally absurd.

Since when you judge a person's sexuality by their hobby or preferences?

Anyways, back to answering the question, it has to be the fact that i like dolls in general, and generally cute stuffs just appeals to me so well.

I couldn't remember since when i had a liking to dolls. But the first dolls that i fell in love with aren't the kinds which small little girls would want to collect, i'm afraid. As opposed to what others think.

I was first fascinated by Living Dead Dolls, then Super Dollfie, then Pullip, then finally, Blythe.

I was somewhat influenced by Sis, who at that moment had only Piccadilly.

Finding that she was extremely photogenic as well, it sorta bloomed together with my love for photography.

I got Kathy after somewhat of a serendipity.

And that the reason for choosing Kathy over so many different 'models' was that plainly she had bangs (You could now tell how much i love girls with bangs).

You can also say, the girls reflects the taste i have for girls.

As in, i like girls who have bangs (Like what Kathy has), and i do like girls who have soft curls (Like Alison).

I like girls who are cool (Kathy), as well as girls who are cute (Alison).

In general, you could somehow say, you show me a girl like my girls, high chance i might fall for them for their looks.

Though you know, love don't work that way.

For what inspired my styling for each of them? It was something quite interesting, well at least to me.

For Kathy, it started as a Cool/Rock chic. Then i got a punk clothes to go with her, which compliments pretty well. Thus, the image of her being a punk didn't change since then.

What inspired me for her styling was... Actually my taste for punk.

I oftenly think to myself, "If i were to be a girl and a punk, how would things turn out to be like?"

So roughly, from here and there, taking this and adding that, here we have, Kathy the Punk.. Or something like that.

As for Alison, what drives me to get her in the first place, was the theme of blonde girls with soft curls. For some reasons, it appeals damn well to me.

So, by a stroke of chance, Blythe came up with Ice Rune, the Blythe which has soft curls and bangs, perfectly what i've wanted.

And even before getting her, i have already planned what style is in for her.

Initially, i wanted a Ganguro, which Blythe's Silver Snow would perfectly fit the bill.

But due to both unavailability, as well as the price, i couldn't lay my hands on her.

Then since Ganguro was part of the big umbrella of Gyaru, why not Gyaru then?

Thus, everything fit perfectly, especially after seeing Tsubasa Masuwaka.

I was further inspired, as Alison totally fits the style. (Don't you think so? =D )

I guess i'll stop talking about my girls for now.

Guess, if i continue, it'll get weirder.

Well, not to me, but perhaps others.

Anyways, there's gonna be a competition this coming Friday.

I'm keen on joining but not too sure if i'm ready.

Should i?

It indeed brings back memories.

2011-06-04T00:22:00.002+08:00

Ok, officially the start of decision-making day 1.

I've roughly decided what i want to get.

Maybe the leisure management at Sentosa doesn't sound pretty bad.

Well, except for the distance.

But you know, as the saying goes, 'Love overcomes all distances'.
Or something like that.

So at least, one choice is settled.

Now it's just either Olio or Starbucks.

Most probably popular choices =/

Anyways, i'll have the next few days to worry about these things.

Ah, so for today, i was watching TV shows on TV.

It was WWE on TV just now.

So i watched it.

It feels pretty nostalgic.

Since when i was young, i used to catch it, at almost the same time.

Though the feeling is different, it still amuses me.

Maybe those moves that used to amaze me, now seems so choreographed.

But at least now, you know what works and what doesn't.

And some you know the 'oppponent' aids the guy in doing the stunt and stuff.

And the 'bad guy' there is actually an English teacher, and stuffs like that.

Amusing, isn't it?

For some reason, the reasons that it amuses me now and the me so many years ago, are two totally different reasons.

But it did entertained, fulfilling its name.

I could remember i was somewhat of a fan, i came up with my own submission moves.

And perhaps that habit stays, i'm still pretty fond of submission techniques, if i could pull them out.

And perhaps when i have my children some time in the future, i will play with him/her, locking in a submission hold. And something like that.

It's gonna be so fun.

And of course, i will teach them how to defend themselves in the future, like a Dad should =)

Gee, i sound somewhat childish, but i kinda mean it =D

Reality comes knock, knock, knocking on my door.

2011-06-02T23:21:00.002+08:00

Before i come in with the colorful events that has happened recently.

Before i post posts about interesting things that has happened.

I have a grave news.

I received the list for my attachment next semester.

After reading, i conclude only one thing.

"I'm screwed. Totally screwed, from head to toe"

Why?

None of the choices are what i have pictured, and majority don't pique my interest.

And those which barely does, are limited in terms of vacancies.

And like myself, many are eye-ing on those as well, each with supposingly better qualifications than me.

Honestly, reality is really biting me hard. And, i really don't know what to do.

But there's a deadline to it.

I really have to think how i should face it.

And in general, how i should face 'Life' as it is now.

I know... It's been a long long time~

2011-05-23T23:28:00.010+08:00

I know it's been a long long time since i've post here.

Gee, it's not that i lack feel or whatsoever.

It's just that i would go like 'I wanna blog... But aww, later~'

Goes on and on and on.

Yup, procrastination.

Anyways, i got my pay, and went on buying stuff.

Naturally, i felt rather guilty of it.

But aww well, i think it's all worth =)

First i got myself a copy of Popteen for the month of March (Totally overdue-ed, i know)

But my my, the girls there so cute.

And there's also a part about Dolly Wink.

There's also one part about the small little things girls do that would make a guy go "Aww, she's so cute". Well... Some really are. Some, might feel too over.. Guess it depends on who does it =)

Next is Hed Kandi's Twisted Disco 2010.

I've been wanted this for quite some time already.

The track in here is awesome, kinda brought me back =D

I really wanna try the tracks there someday. Man....

Anyways, on Saturday, I walked to Orchard area after work.

Well, i had some kind of feel to take night shots in the area.

You know me, i love night city lights.

So took quite alot, taking while walking around.

But i think while taking those pictures, i must've looked rather silly somehow, with all my concentration to positioning and not putting care to anything around me.

These are a few i took while on the go.

As you can see, it's not really nice, not what i like.

Ok, walking for about 5 minutes or so (and taking pictures),

I've reached my first destination.

Ok, you go on and guess. Where's this?

Can't guess it?

Aww well, another few more obvious clues.

Still can't find the answer?

Ok,ok. It's Orchard Central.

And if you are wondering which part has this factory/machine-like place, it's somewhere at the top floor where most of their restaurants are.

Honestly-speaking, i find Orchard Central's futuristic design rather photography-friendly.

It's somewhere i would recommend people who wants to take picture.

Besides the night view is pretty good from its sky garden.

Walking towards ION's direction, i pass Ngee Ann City and 313.

Outside both malls, there are buskers performing there.

And they're no ordinary buskers, they are the ones from Japan who plays with the crystal ball.

And they are playing as fluidly as they are in those videos.

How cool is that?

I took videos, wondering should i post it on YouTube.

Anyways, i also headed to *SCAPE.

Man.... It's still as lively even though it's already nearing 12.

But all the lights there are awesome. Just that too many people, felt shy trying to take them.

After that, i went past ION, took a few shots and headed to Wheelock Place.

Its cone design plus its lights being lighted up, something interesting, right?

And it hit spot on.

Nice, right?

I really wanna take more and more of this kind of night shots.

I love city lights, you know me.

Ah, i know, i've not been post frequently and all.

Kinda neglecting it.

So sorry about it.

But it's all about the feel i guess.

Hahaha~

Last Sunday =)

2011-04-29T21:27:00.005+08:00

Hey guys.

I'm here, again.

Err, it's another overdue post.

But well, after this, it'll be updated ones ;D

Ok guys, i've really enjoyed myself last Sunday.

Why?

Wai Wai (Or Weeny) and Tina came over from Hong Kong for a visit.

It's so much a pity Sis couldn't join us.

But aww well, next year, i'm sure we could have great fun =)

So anyways, we went to National Museum of Singapore and met there.

Yes, it's the third time there.

But even then, i discovered new paths i haven't came across with the previous two.

Interesting eh?

And Beauty in Black was opened.

Saw it the last time there, though it was still under construction.

Man... The dresses are superb.

Lovely. Especially the main theme was black.

And the layout.... It's as if they were in gallery showcase of dresses which depicts the different era and styles.

Honestly, something that shouldn't be missed.

After that, we went to the Singapore Flyer.

Main idea was to bring them to see the cosplay event there.

But the Flyer proves to be much more better an attraction.

Which even me myself couldn't help but to agree with it.

After that, we headed to MBS from there.

Well, Tina said that she wants to visit the sky garden there.

Well, the next time they're here, guess we'll go there.

With Sis too.

Sure it's gonna be damn fun =)

And to sum up the day of fun, we had dinner at a nearby foodie.

Had lots of good stuff.

Chicken rice, curry fish head, special dough fritter and last but not least,

Black Pepper Crab =D

Man.... It kinda got me craving for crabs these days. Haha~

Ok guys. It's a long weekend ahead, and hope you guys enjoy it.

Me? Not so much.

Would be working the whole three days, and she won't be around.

For some reason, i started to hate long weekends or holidays.

For the reason that she wouldn't be with me.

Guess she wouldn't want to be with me anyways.

The outside world, is much more better afterall, right?

I'll stop here. Lest the post get emo-er.

Good night people.

Have a good weekend.

It sure took me long....

2011-04-26T20:07:00.004+08:00

It's been more than 2 weeks since the event.

I kinda lack the feel to post it up, you see.

But aww well, here i am =)

Ok~

So it was SOYC the Saturday more than two weeks ago.

And well, i didn't have much reasons to go there except to listen to Evelia perform.

But well, i guess there are still quite a number which i took pictures of.

Here are some of them.

And this caught my attention, and certainly amused me well

Hahaha~ Kudos to the one who did this.

Honestly, it's really funny.

When we were back, we had Long John Silvers for dinner.

And it's good =D

We also got yakult after dinner.

How nostalgic =D

Ok,i kept it real short. Another one on Waiwai's visit will be coming right up.

Perhaps later on or tomorrow ok?

Ciao~

Come come, ask me ask me =) http://formspring.me/DrylNeo

Working hard for the past 5 days... And i reward myself with....

2011-04-08T22:55:00.003+08:00

Yes, i bought my first copy of Popteen.

Hahaha~~

And so, some of you guys must be thinking, "Why this guy will buy this?" or something like that, right?

Why? 'Cause simply i find the girls inside so cute.

Honest.

I have a soft spot for Gyaru, especially the sweet type and ganguro.

Lemme see, examples like... Tsubasa? Koda Kumi?

I was at Popular just now while my boss was buying stationary.

While he was in the queue to pay, i went to read the magazine.

I browsed this and.....

My my, i'm hooked by the loveliness inside. Haha~

So back at the office, the impulse of buying it just grows and grow.

And i bought it.

Aww well, it's not bad too.

Well, Mom and Sis could read it too.

They could even try a couple of things from there too.

It'd be real nice if they do.

Haha~

Ok, gotta go.

Bye~~

Late late post for the weekends.

2011-04-06T20:21:00.008+08:00

Hey~

Supposedly the contents here are about the stuff that happened during the weekends.

But you see, i am kinda busy lately.

And dead shagged when i'm home.

So there you have it.

So you see, last Friday, right after work, i went to Ray's place to celebrate some simple gathering.

We had alcohol bombing.

Yes, that idea which Ray had in mind for so long, had finally materialized.

Not that it is to my chagrin or dismay, it's just that i didn't really welcome the idea of taking alcohol, if you know what happened in my past.

Anyways, we were there afterwork.

And being the famished kids that we are afterwork, Jun Yao and I took the pizza that was available and ate them down.

These was what was on the table.

And when they say "there were more", we didn't expect this.

But it's all good =)

So first up was Jager bomb.

As the name suggest, the one in the spotlight here is Jagermeister, followed by Red Bull.

As this was my first time tasting both, even when they are as individuals.

They taste like toothpaste together, but a different kind from Grasshopper.

I guess it's something subjective, 'cause others call it something near to liquorice.

And i tried Jagermeister by itself... It tasted pretty cough syrup-ish...

Guess it's the herbs that causes it.

We decided not to get drunk, so we waited for about a hour or so before the next drink.

So...

Yep,we play Munchkins.

Yes, that game we played sometime ago.

It's pretty fun, where you can kinda sabotage your friends and all.

Pretty wicked, pretty fun.

And after all the fun, we had our next shot, Chocolate Cake.

Consist of Vodka Vanilla and Frangelico, i think the latter is the reason to why it tasted so much like a chocolate cake.

You drink it down, then bite onto a slice of lemon.

I don't know why the lemon is needed, but it adds the zest there.

After that, we tried the alcohols individually.

In my opinon, Vodka tasted the worst.

And Frangelico just tasted like... Hazelnut =D

We also tried Bailey's Irish Cream. And it tasted like toffee actually, much to my delight.

And Ray also suggested mixing them together.

Yes, so we all tried Vodka + Bailey's, Bailey's + Frangelico.

Last but not least, we had our Irish Car Bomb.

It's Bailey's + Stout.

Mmmm.... I don't really like it.

It has this bitter taste to it, thanks to the stout.

But it's really fun doing the 'bombing'.

It has this 'blomp' sound to it. Sounds kinda cute, kinda fun.

On Saturday, we went Marina Bay Sands (again. Not that i don't like the idea =D )

It seems like that are more new shops opened.

And you know what?

There is Rose Bullet there as well.

I was thrilled to see that there.

When i have a girlfriend, i'm so gonna doll her up with Rose Bullet apparels.

So lovely... But it's gonna take a toll on my pocket. But it's worth it =D

On Sunday, we practically slacked at Uncle's place till evening.

Until then i was kinda bored, so i took pictures of Kodi.

Usually, he was all smiles, but when i took picture of him, he gets emo.

Don't know why.

We went to East Coast park to cycle after that.

Had dinner there too.

Had Char Kway Teow.

Pretty good actually =)

We went to see sand castles after that.

It's been a while since i've built a sandcastle.

But i hate the feeling of 'sand in my pants' =/

Aww well~

Ok guys, gotta go.

Busy busy tomorrow =D

2011-04-05T21:18:00.001+08:00

Ask me things you wanna ask me about =) http://formspring.me/DrylNeo

Just back from 'Simple gathering' and i can't seem to fall asleep.

2011-04-02T01:43:00.003+08:00

But i shall not say or type too much.

Since i suspect that i am drunk.

Though i feel nothing, except for being a little weird in my responses and reactions.

But well, as they all say, when you are drunk, everyone except yourself knows that.

Awww, heck it.

So i'm gonna keep it short.

Just in case i end up making comments that i would end up regret, ok? =)

Lemme see.

Actually, i don't feel anything much now.

Well, either it's really gone, or that i might just be dead drunk. Who knows?

But, i'm not sure to say this.

But i find myself feeling nothing much happening from the 'being drunk'.

But rather, i feel that i might actually think a little more sensible than what i normally do.

As in, taking what i feel for example.

I actually feel that my feeling for the person i love, being in fact something like lying to myself.

As in, maybe deep down, i know i am lying to myself, telling myself she might feel a little for me too.

But even if she does..... Nah, it's impossible. It can never happen.

But honestly, how can it happen?

Girl so perfect, like her, will never fall for such a person like me.

Hmmmm. Honestly, maybe i'm drunk afterall.

"Live like a NEET."

2011-03-30T23:21:00.002+08:00

That's what holidays make people into.

Don't you agree?

I'm like an otaku, don't even have the drive to do anything, or go anywhere.

Well.... Except for good food =)

Let me see, for the past few days, what have i been doing?

Well, it's either playing games on PSP,

or it'd be idling online, with nothing much accomplish.

Isn't this being like a NEET?

It's not something good you know.

I also went to fetch Sis after school.

Just like how we used to when she was still in Primary school.

It seems that our bonds are getting better and better, just like how we used to be.

And i feel so happy about it.

And how i wish, this would never ever change.

And oh yes, i bought coronets from Shin Kuriya last night after work.

My god... Now i know why Sis love it so much.

The crispy-ness of the crust, the flavor of the cream.

It is definitely lovely.

And of not being able to decide which filling to get, i got both vanilla and chocolate.

So which is my preference?

Well, i'd actually prefer the chocolate filling.

For some reason that does not make sense. Haha~

And for some reason or another, i was really hungry yesterday.

So hungry, i kept buying stuff to eat.

So, putting my meals aside, i got myself crackers and snacks.

Twisties and Onigiri.

Haha~

My my, i ate alot. But i was really hungry yesterday.

I ate so much that Sis Rain wonders where all those food go.

I wonder too. But aww well, i like it that way actually.

I love what i am now =)

Ah, aww well....

And.....

I don't know.

I have a weird feeling coming to me.

I feeling kinda jealous over something i shouldn't even have such a feeling for.

As in, it's something i shouldn't be jealous about. Or at the very least, for a normal person to.

But deep inside, it just bugs me.

It just feels so uncomfortable.

Tsk....

Finally.... My faux Cuba Libre

2011-03-24T23:29:00.004+08:00

Ah, maybe i'll keep this short? I don't know.

Mmmm....

So just a while ago, feeling bored and rather restless, i tried something.

Feeling so curious about Cuba Libre.

So i added cola to Lime Breezer.

Yes yes, it's kinda like a troll physics kinda stuff.

Since i thought Cuba Libre is Cola with Lime juice and white rum.

And that Breezer is juice with rum, wouldn't it be the same?

So what i did was what i mentioned just now.

And guess what?

It tasted like lime cola, just with that warm aftertaste to it.

Haha~

I really gotta try Cuba Libre someday =)

Finally, Suiya is restring-ed...

2011-03-24T00:04:00.001+08:00

Evening guys.

A very late one indeed ya?

It's a fun day.

I mean how can it not be fun?

Went to Ah Xian's place to have lunch.

Not exactly his place but the mall nearby.

The Japanese foodies that are superb.

Yummy delicious~

Need i say more?

I had Curry Katsu Don, and order a side dish of fried salmon skin.

Lovely lovely.

Even restaurants have those at low 'reserves'.

My my, sure did i enjoy my lunch.

So much so, i was too full for dinner.

After that we head to this place (I can't remember the name) to restring Sis's guitar, Suiya.

It was not too expensive as i have thought.

It's good~

After all that, i went Ah Xian's place to play our guitars.

Yes, i personally like acoustic guitar more than electric.

And it kinda spurs me on to learn guitar, and get better at it.

Even if my goal's to be a vocalist, not a guitarist, if i were to be in a band.

And he also helped with some changes in the blog.

Lovely changes, if you ask me.

What's those?

You go find it ;D

But honestly, totally great stuff. Thanks Xian ;D

Ah, gotta go. So sleepy.

Nitey nite~

While yesterday was busy, today was counterproductive.... =/

2011-03-21T22:48:00.003+08:00

Hey people~

Guess why i was busy for yesterday?

Guess why i was counterproductive today?

I will answer all these ya? =)

Yesterday started quite an early day.

I woke up pretty early.

Prepared my uniform and psyche myself up for the test ahead.

Went to meet Si Qi in the train station, and head off for HQ.

We saw this cat nearby the HQ.

Poor child, having a bloody nose =(

Hope he/she gets well soon.

Ah, and when we were at the HQ, we met up with the others.

Saw Branson, His mom and Jasper too.

I have faith in him getting his blue belt =)

I feel so much of wanna train with him the next time i see him~

For my test, i was just plain lucky to have a senior belt to train with.

And i admit, i was rather jumpy, and even more jumpy when the adrenaline rushes.

For some reason, having too many stuff registered into your muscle memory isn't a good idea.

But overall, i think i did well ^_^

And right after the test ends, i rushed over to Granny's place to meet up with KeiKei.

And it was so lucky of me that it rains after i reached Granny's place.

Met up with KeiKei and his girlfriend.

She looks so much like the girl in Genki Rocket's music video, so pretty =D

We waited quite a while for the taxi. And we kinda thought we're gonna be so so late.

Well, luckily we didn't ^_^

It was so crowded in the airport, the lines we're long and all =/

And after sending KeiKei and his girlfriend off, i went to Terminal 3.

There's a Crocs sales there.

And i got myself two pairs of slippers there.

It's like freakin' cheap. Like $10 for one pair. Cheap isn't it? =D

Sadly Sis didn't see any which she fancies =(

Ryan was there as well.

He was just so so adorable.

Smart little fellow which i can help but to like him.

My my my, he make me feel like getting a child so much =D

At night, headed to Ray's place to do my mix tape for Jam& Hop.

Well, after trying out for a few times, i proceed to record.

I think i screwed up a little.

Especially at the back, the transition there.

But aww well, i think it was fine =)

Oh yes, and here's the mix tape.

Enjoy ^_^

For Jam & Hop. By DrylNeo by D_RYLNeo

And for today?

I practically slacked till late afternoon, then head off for training.

Honestly, nothing much was done =(

But well well, upcoming days should redeem myself =)

And you might be wondering why there is no pictures for yesterday,since it was so kinda eventful,right?

I lend my camera to Sis for the weekend.

So you could say, i was camera-less.

But i find it much better.

Sis took a number of awesome pictures.

So much so, i'm a big fan of her.

Well, even since before, but yea, i'm a big fan of her ;D

And i'm pretty sure she'll get better than me, very very fast =)

Ok guys. I'll leave now.

Bye~

Maybe i found the direction i want to head to...

2011-03-18T23:42:00.007+08:00

I'm not talking about careers here.

I'm still clueless here.

You should know what i am talking about here, if you know me.

Well, i realise, i should not be stumbling around, getting myself hurt.

I should not go for people at whim.

Just for reasons which even myself cannot identify.

All the while, i should have realised that 'If loving/liking someone means hurting yourself, then by all means, stop it.'

I guess it took me long enough. Even though i have so many bad experiences with love before.

So much so, i think it can be a short story or something.

But you know, it doesn't mean i'm gonna say stuff like "I'm never gonna be in love again" or stuff like that.

You know i won't say stupid things like that. It is just stupid.

I guess i will just not try so hard to find one after all.

I realised why it is like 'putting hair lice on your head.' (I remembered someone telling me. Can't remember who.)

Maybe that's why, setting expections and following is sometimes a way to prevent yourself from getting disappointed and upset.

And you know, i too have my dream girl. I guess everyone does.

You know, my dream girl ain't Masuwaka Tsubasa.

How should i put it?

Ok, you can put it as her type would definitely make me go gaga.

But that's just that.

In my opinion, dream girl would most probably mean she's gonna be someone you wanna spent the rest of your time with.

You know, the word 'soulmate'.

So you wanna know my quality of a soulmate/ dream girl?

It's simple.

Remember me talking about girls who are like dolls?

Yea, that's my type.

Like dolls. You know, having doll-like features, features which automatically makes you say "She's like a doll."

And you expect i like girls who are fragile as they look? Here's the catch.

I like girls who are feminine, but definitely not feeble.

There's a difference between gentle and weak.

As much as this sounds impossible, 'Dolly girls who are as tough as nails.'

I know people like this exist.

Why? or rather, how? Easy.

I have seen people who are like that.

Honestly speaking, it was because of this one girl, that's why i like girls with such qualities.

You can keep on guessing who is that.

But having said all these, it's gonna be so hard to find someone like that.

People like these are rare.

And beside, i have nothing for them to like me about.

But having said that, when love come, it just comes.

And when it does, all initial plans all goes out of the window.

You can't control who you fall in love with and vice versa.

But still, it's good to have an expectation at least.

Ok, guys.

I think i'm gonna end this post.

But before i do, i wanna share with you guys some videos.

This is done by Sis Shirin.

And it's so so great. I love it alot.

I could remember she playing this tune when we were young.

That is the reason why i like this song.

That is the reason why i like 'Spirited Away'.

And the next i wanna share is this.

This is an OST song from Yosuga no Sora.

I know i know, you're probably gonna say, "Why are you watching such dirty anime? Blah Blah Blah".

But you must admit it, though twisted, the storyline was great and touching.

Same goes to the music in the anime.

That's probably why i fell for it.

This is also from the same anime. But this certainly has a cheerful tune to it.

It also adds this summer feel to it.

It is really nice, in my opinion.

You guys should try too. Um, minus the thoughts of it being a pervy anime.

Ok, i gotta go now.

There's work tomorrow. Night~

Finally, i know where can we take better pictures of the city view~

2011-03-15T22:43:00.004+08:00

Hey people~

Ah, recently, i've been posting posts which are several days late.

Even though i have the drive to post the stuffs here, i would, in the end, procrastinate and... You know the rest.

I'm really sorry, but well, guess that's just another habit i will have to curb, ya? =)

And you know, for Sunday, i went to the IT show.

It is pretty crowded and definitely very squeezy.

I literally have to push people who get into my way, and i don't like that.

But you can say, it's a good thing that i am alone.

And i had a feel on Pioneer's DDJ.

And it is a product yet to release in the market. How cool is that?

I love it, simply love it. I mean, i would wish to have it when i have the ability to own it.

Why? It's simply awesome.

It's as if a mixdeck and a Rane rolled into one.

That mean the money on a Rane is saved ^_^

After i had enough with the crowds at the IT show, i head straight to Marina Square.

I had myself Nasi Lemak and a Popiah (Since i was hungry, and the Dim Sum shop next to it ran out of stuff =/)

I must say, i had my tummy filled. I was hungry. And feeling kinda empty somehow.

But well, that filled me up real good =)

And to wait for Jun Yao to finish his work, i roamed around the mall, buying sweets, dancing Para Para and simply wander around.

But aww well, it feels rather enjoyable, just like how i was when i was young.

Roaming around malls, putting what i have to think about somewhere far.

Seeing moving life, waiting for something. (Mom's knock-off time)

It's quite enjoyable, one of the pleasures in my life.

And after Jun Yao's knock-off time, we headed to Esplanade to take a bus back.

But after realising how crowded the bus was, we decided to take the train instead.

Unknowingly we wandered into the Esplanade and out to where we can clearly see the city view.

And as the title mentioned, i found a good place to take the city shot.

Well, you see, we wandered off the outdoor stage.

And getting tired of the show not starting early, we wander off.

And by mere chance of serendipity, we found the perfect view of the city, at the back of outdoor stage.

It provides a better view as compared to the roof garden of Esplanade.

You see the difference there?

Maybe you can't, but it's definitely better, trust me =)

We wanted to head to the train station, but well, we kinda walked off in the wrong direction and headed towards the Fullerton side.

That means the only station near there is Raffles Place, which is near to the end of Clarke Quay.

But on our way there, we went past a few great place and without a doubt, full of lovey-dovey couples.

How do you find it?

And heading back and reaching our station, we went to the nearby convenience store.

And Jun Yao got his breezer, orange-flavored.

I sipped a little, and find that it isn't that bad.

Maybe i might even like it, i don't know.

But i might wanna try experimenting adding lime breezer with cola.

Since breezer is juice with rum, would it be like Cuba Libre where Cola + Rum + Lime juice, right?

I wanna give it a try someday =)

Ah, and tomorrow's my audition day.

Finally, and i'm feeling so jittery.

How can i not?

But such an enjoyable feeling, something i look forward to.

Oh yes, before i end this...

I opened the super lemon candy i bought during Gakuensai.

3 month since i bought it.

It took me long to open it =_=

But well, how should i describe the taste....

It's pretty much like Sour Power. Even the wrapper too.

See?

It's good. Get them if you see it ok?

So many thing. So much so....

2011-03-12T23:58:00.008+08:00

As the title suggest, i'm speaking gibberish.

I'm dead tired.

I lack sleep or something?

You see, Thursday was kinda eventful, productive too.

Went to meet the boliao guys for lunch.

We ate at the Bah Kut Teh stall nearby Central, instead of Burger King, which was what we initially wanted.

But well, it's all worth it.

It is pretty good, if you ask me. So it kinda justifies everything.

While others took the conventional Bah Kut Teh, spare ribs and all, i got myself the Pig Stomach Soup.

I like it alot. Since young, pig stomach has been my favorite.

Granny would always prepare Pig Stomach Soup whenever there is an occasion which soups prepared.

After the lunch, went Suntec's IT fair with Ah Xian and Mak. (Ray's working so couldn't come along.)

I didn't stay there too long as well.

Went to meet Mandy in Dhoby Ghaut.

We headed to National Museum of Singapore.

Discovered that there are places that we have missed during the excursion.

Afterall, everyone was rushing that day =_=

It is honestly a waste to miss it. Aww well...

And i took this

Ever since i saw the Wikipedia's article on the museum, i was inspired to take a picture like this.

It's as if 'Past meets future, and vice versa', just like what the captions below the picture meant.

And the living galleries are great.

I mean, i could take alot of great pictures there.

Don't you agree?

We headed to City Link for dinner, then off to the Esplanade.

Well, the weather wasn't doing much of a favor. It was fluctuating between drizzle and rain.

That means we couldn't head to the bridge linking to Marina Bay Sands.

We stayed at the outdoor stage and listened to the jazz performance outside.

It was rather enjoyable. Perhaps due to my love for Jazz?

But before we left for home, i finally took something i wanted to take since the Valentine's photoshoot.

There. If not for the photoshoot, i wouldn't even know such a place exist in Singapore.

Haha~

So there comes the next morning, waking up to a body filled with tiredness.

Head to school for the Lenovo's show.

While waiting for my turn, i took some pictures.

How do you think of it?

After that, went down to Dhoby Ghaut (Again.) to meet the others for a dinner at Itacho.

As much as it seems heavenly, it is as heavy as its consequences on my pocket.

It did not fill my stomach (Only had fatty tuna sushi, salmon temaki and grilled pork sushi.)

And it cost like a full meal by itself.

But before you pass this off as a waste of money, i would beg to differ.

To be honest, i have no idea how to appreciate the delicacy of tuna (Be it sushi or sashimi)

But, the fatty tuna has this rich taste to it, which is honestly great (I would be lying if i said otherwise),

and the salmon in the temaki was simply fantastic (I'm a sucker for Salmon after all).

How should i put it?

The taste is richer, and the salmon has this different texture to it, if you ask me.

To end the night last night, we went Ray's place to watch the latest movie for Jackass.

I find it much more disgusting as compared to the previous movies.

But well, it's good nonetheless.

And before i end this last post

This was done by Areen sometime ago.

Totally cool.

Love it ;D

You guys should try there sometime ya? Haha~

But remember to prepare money for it, please.

It's expensive.

The Ubin camp experience again... After so many years.

2011-03-10T01:27:00.005+08:00

Ah, as the name suggest, it wasn't the first time i was there for camp.

Excluding NPCC related camps and activities, it has been the third time i've been there for camp.

And what do you know?

It's the same campsite i was at during the camp during Secondary 3.

It has been years since i went back there.

Lemme see... About 3 or 4 years? It was the Secondary 4 High Rope Course (HRC).

Ah, i remember vividly, the leap of faith and my regrets of not being able to try the flying fox there =/

Let alone that, most NPCC camps were held there too.

Thus, in short, i'm somewhat a veteran in Ubin. (Emphasis is on the 'somewhat')

I must say, this camp's activities is much lenient as compared to the other camps i have went.

In terms of the length (2 days, 1night. Nothing compared to OBS's 5 days 4 night) and activities (Again, nothing on par with OBS's continuous trekking and 1 full day of kayaking around the island, or NPCC's morning PT)

But having said so, the challenges given by the higher-ups (yes, the one on top), was what made the camp challenging.

You could say, i was toughen up by all these.

Which in turn makes me wonder, my looks doesn't describe the activities i have done before huh?

Don't judge a book by its cover~ ^_^

And perhaps i shall cover what has happened for the two days by the days.

It's more easier to relate to =)

So on day 1...

I woke up as early, as if going to school.

Panicked for a while, whether if i have forgotten to bring anything.

Then head out to school.

Reaching school, i looked at the number of people attending the camp.

Well, didn't expect it to be everybody. But it was all good.

Started with drawing out the equipments (I hate it, admin stuff =/ )

Passed our stuff and head to the jetty.

Took a boat there.

I missed taking the boat there. And honestly, i have already regretted not taking my camera there.

Even in the boat, i already know what to take, and saw what i wanna take.

Love the boat to be rocking back and forth by the waves. Missing them quite alot.

Though others are kind of panicking and jittery, i find that enjoyable.

The salt spray and all, the rythmn and all.

It's all nostalgic.

Reaching Ubin, we gathered at the court in front of the visitor/tourism office.

It's rather unsavory as it was mid-day and the sun is hanging right up in the sky.

Imagine the heat? Hahaha~

We were then given clues and started our land expedition, which ultimately would lead us to our campsite.

So our few hours long expedition starts there.

And throughout the whole expedition, i was hit with waves of nostalgia.

All the landmarks i used to past, i could remember, but there's an inkling of memory there.

And all the picturesque views, all the more made my regrets of not bringing a camera deeper =/

We reached the campsite, only to realise that it is the very campsite i used to camp at during the Secondary 3 camp. Vivid bad experiences.

It was like a deja vu, history repeating itself.

Why?

At about 4 am or a little later, there was a downpour, then a storm.

Tents went down, one by one.

Well, our tents stayed up right, but water seeps in.

Nothing was saved from the rain. All was wet =/

But how cool was that? Staying in a tent while in a heavy storm.

It feels quite nice actually, until the water seeps in from below =_=

Well, after that, we didn't sleep till dawn breaks.

So you could say it is like a wake-up alarm clock to the next day.

There was a friendly rafting competition between the three teams there.

And it made me feel so lucky to have prior knowledge on building a raft.

Hahaha~ Campcraft i have learnt during my NPCC days has done me proud ^_^

It was held in RP's very own quarry in Ubin.

And the water is so clear, i could see my own leg inside the water.

And well, the water taste like sodium bicarbonate-ed water (Okay, i sipped a little. They said it was ok.)

It think that was what which made me enjoyed the whole camp.

It was really really nice.

But i realised, i have phobia of swimming in water too.

We went back after that.

On the boat journey and bus journey back, everyone knocked out.

Slept so soundly.

It's of no wonder, right? Haha~

And coming to the part i hate the most.

Cleaning up while being shagged out, isn't one of the most enjoyable job to do.

Well, this wraps up most of the stuff.

You know, i am accustomed to camps, thanks to NPCC.

But i don't think that is the kind of lifestyle i would want to have.

I'm not a sporty kind of person. I have short stamina limits.

And though strong, my body is pretty weak compared to my peers.

I hate camps alot.

But i must admit, all the camps i have went are like bitter medicine.

Bitter to taste, but sweet to remember.

Let's start with ComiFest first

2011-03-09T12:48:00.007+08:00

Hey people~

I think i'm gonna come up with a double post for today.

Why?

There's so many things happening for the past few days.

Hahaha~

Let talk about ComiFest first.

Since that's what happened first, ya?

It's on last weekend.

And i must say, like most events that i went recently, it has lost its magic.

Not just the event by itself, but rather, the whole idea.

I wonder if it is considered a good or bad thing?

I think the only thing which made me enjoy that was Jun Yao and Ah Xian's joking here and there.

As well as chatting and taking photos along with Mandy.

But having said that, there are some who still keeps me interested.

Cosplays which i find pretty good.

Like for example,

Luna's Misa is one of my all time favorite (Sorry for being naggy)

But i really like that. Pity it is the last time she is doing this.

She is afterall, busy with stuffs like work and jamming. Haha~

And i saw this too

Remember at EOY?

They are stuck in my head.

They are very cool. The kind of hairstyle which i want, the kind of get up which i want to do.

After NS, i might wanna grow out my hair, and get into this kind of get-up =)

There is also this lady called Poppy Chou.

She caught my interest while i was browsing an album by a pro-photographer.

She was doing modelling, not cosplay. And it was awesome.

I wasn't much keen on her cosplay actually, although it was very good. (It's just that i have kind of lost the interest in it)

Apparently, she does guy style as well, and looks pretty handsome.

Maybe she has the kind of perfect face which fits both gender very well?

In my opinion, out of the whole event, what interest me most was the wedding exhibition along it than the cosplay and manga itself.

The gowns are extremely pretty. And they definitely caught my eye.

But i bet they are pretty pricey too =/

I mean, look.

They look so gorgeous, it's of no wonder right?

I like the guy mannequin's get-up.

It looks so cool. If only i can wear like that as well....

And for now, i might have to give Pierre a bath. He stink like.... You get me. Haha~

Maybe after that, i will start a post about my 2 days in Pulau Ubin? =)

Later~

Outing with the sophomores

2011-03-03T22:54:00.006+08:00

Guys, i know it's a late post and all.

But you know, it's better late then never right? =)

On Tuesday, went to Plaza Singapura with my Year 2 Sem 1 cliques.

We went to Swensen's for lunch.

Man....

For the first few times, i find eating western food fulfilling.

Yup, it filled my stomach pretty well.

I ordered baked rice with salmon.

Looks yummy right?

And since it's with the lunch set, there is a free side dish.

I got myself french fries, and that's what got me full.

Why? See for yourself.

Big right?

And fries goes well with Tartar sauce. (Well, all fried stuff does =D )

We went to the arcade after that.

And head to Starbucks after that. (Chanel's getting her Starbucks tumbler)

While waiting, i took photo... secretly.

It turned out good right? That's what i think.

I reformated my lappie to use Windows 7.

Mmmm. Having a hard time getting used to it.

But it does look nicer in some way.

Or it is an psychological effect?

Oh yes, and i have also signed up for NP's karaoke competition.

I wanna grab my chance to sing on stage.

And perhaps get noticed too.

I have not much time left, i'm afraid =/

I lika singa~

A shot back into Nostalgia.

2011-02-27T23:07:00.003+08:00

Have you, at some point, wish to go back to the past you wish to be at the most?

Like you know, missing how things used to be?

When you see something, see someone, or at some place?

Sometimes, just even a flashback?

You know, i am a child at heart for this reason.

I don't wish to grow up.

I just want things to stay like how it is.

I always hated things to change, especially to something that i don't like.

I think i have a strong sense of nostalgia.

Plus me being a very sentimental person, i easily miss things very much, very easily.

You know, old things, old toys, and all, they bring back memories.

Everything, they could easily tell a story of memory, provided that it can be recalled.

How i wish things to be as nice, as fun, as simple as the past.

How much Reality is a bitch, working the other way around.

Reason why i'm putting this post?

I don't know. Just feeling nostalgic.

No no, don't be mistaken, i'm not being emo here.

I'm just missing the past =)

The random things that happened this week.

2011-02-26T00:33:00.003+08:00

Well, not that random, and not that it is the end of this week.

But anyways, i'm here and all.

Ah...

Went to the hospital with Mom on Wednesday.

Mmmm.

As early as always, and feeling flu-ish.

That's not a very good feeling right?

But well, it all filial piety for Mom =)

Anyways, after hospital, we went to have lunch at Chinatown.

And we had desserts after that.

Well, as much as it seeming like a scam, i would say, it taste as fun as it looks.

Pretty sweet. Perhaps due to the syrup.

And you all know, i'm a kid with sweet tooth ^_^

Had my re-test on Thursday.

Well you know, as they all say "UT4 is harder than UT3"

You must no doubt it.

It's really very hard. Kept me stumbled a while.

And i could not say that i felt free after completing it.

Not when i found out that i'm doing badly =/

And for today, went to celebrate two friends' birthday.

First was Jun Yao's.

We went the Aston's at Sembawang (Yes, the one we went on my birthday)

I ordered double (Which i think the only few that can fill my stomach)

Had Charbroiled (as always) and lemon lime chicken.

I was pretty reluctant to order chicken at first (Since i was recovering from flu).

But aww well, the others... didn't appeal to me.

We ate, we chatted, we joked and we laughed.

Hahaha~ It was funny.

Chatted for an hour or so. Or more?

Fast forward to evening, i had my dinner with Zihao and Jun You.

Ivan joined us afterwards.

It's been so so long since i last saw Jun You.

I had Mussels and Clam in Home-made broth.

I like the sour taste to it.

It used to be white wine, and the aroma is.... lovely ^_^

But aww well, it is still good.

And after dinner and all, we played Yu-Gi-Oh.

It's pretty nostalgic.

I mean it has been so long since i played it.

And it does brings back alot of memories.

How i miss those time.

Oh dear, Pierre smells so....

Hahaha~ Gotta bath for him during the weekends.

Hahaha~

Ah, gotta go now ya?

Nite~
