Oh No.
I've sold my soul.
I think i just concluded that I SOMEHOW, ACTUALLY, IN SOME WRONG and WEIRD WAY ....like.... (MILDLY,TEMPORARILY,UNCERTAINLY) being in army.
Egad.
Help.
But e key phrase is 'being in army'. I HATE army but 'being in army' is a different story.

I KNOW. *head lowers with all e accusatory, betrayed looks coming from all directions, trying to shy away fm e vulgarities spewed, e spit from my fellow tortured comrades who lost their freedom to the army*
But! ... *lowers head again* (mumbling to myself)... army does give me quite a bit of time to work on my interests.....(timid look)
Argh. I know i can never rationalise my cause.
I haven't sold out to e army! er.. i think.
I think i've said enough. (exits e stage with e crowd leering and taunting)

if all of Zheng Yi's crappy bogus ideas ever came true :

1) You've probably visited Zheng Yi's and Jianrong's cafe. All the recepies from Zheng yi's mom and prepared by jianrong.

2) You've probably seen and liked Zheng Yi's well-mannered, disciplined yet super-cool daughter (zheng yi adopted her when he was 19 OR she's actually one of e triplets that Jianrong's wife gave birth to)

3) You know Zheng Yi's roommate Lauren.

4) You've heard abt and eventually bought albums by a local group comprising of Paul, Lauren and Zheng Yi. And u loved it. ( They play at Zheng Yi's cafe too at night )

5) You read books and comics by Zheng Yi.

6) You've got this gorgeous pencil sketched artwork done by Zheng Yi, that's hanging in ur bedroom wall. You love it. U managed to bag it away from another 100 bidders at an auction for $2.7 million which will go partly to charity and mostly to well... Zheng Yi of cos.

7) You probably visited e castle that sits in e middle of e Botanical Gardens whose design was a joint effort by Ah zhao and Zheng Yi.

8) You jus saw Zheng Yi ride past you on this white handsome steed on orchard road.

9) One of you guys/gers would have a son whom Zheng Yi's daughter is betrothed to.

10) You know that Zheng Yi is single.

11) You were one of e 2 billion ppl that shouted encore at e end of Zheng Yi's concert in some stadium that can actually hold 2 billion ppl.

12) You just attended Zheng Yi's funeral. With Zheng Yi just sitting beside you listening intently to all e touching speeches his friends and family has made for him.

13) You ever visited Zheng Yi when he was a monk at DeGuang Temple somewhere in China and brought him e alcohol, cigarettes, meat and comics he requested.

14) Your child was taught by Zheng Yi in JC or university and he/she decided to emulate this really funky teacher of his/hers. And FINALLY, he/she loves e Chinese language.

15) You read that gossip all over e papers abt Zheng Yi's and Tao Jing Ying's really steamy love affair.

16) You were there in Beijing to cheer him on when Zheng Yi completed his cross-country bicycle trail from Singapore to Beijing.

17) You testified for Zheng Yi during a hearing where he was accused and eventually proven innocent for e murder of Ho Yao Shun.

18) You were paddling furiously with e entire population of Singapore along e coasts of Singapore when Zheng Yi was trying to prove his erroneous claim that Singapore is a 'floating island which could migrate from place to place' . (HMM.)

yesterday : met up wif some good old frens. holland v. has a gelato place with 72 flavours! hmm. but def. not as good as venezia lar. but cheaper i think. there are all kinds of flavors, abt 10+ choc flavors including " Tim Tam", " Rocher " , " Tolberone "
and weird fruit flavors like " Lychee " , " Durian".

today: had a man2man talk with mi dad this morning. found out quite a bit of how he got his present job, with involves major job-hopping for a few years (7 jobs), then unemployment , a disatisfactory posting to Xiamen, China for 2 years, then alot of politics and now a place where he can settle down.
hmm. realised that all e luxury i'm soaking in now can't realli be taken for granted and also feeling deep gratitude towards mi dad. think we should start appreciating e usually stern, boring, silent breadwinner man of e house more, shouldn't we? :)

Notice :
Since it's impossible that i keep putting up pics on mi blog without removing any of them ( only have 2MB of free webspace )
so every month i'll clear off MOST of e pics on mi blog.
not like many of u will refer back to old blogs but jus in case some new visitor comes by some day, I put up all these photos on mi yahoophotos site ( Links provided )

And i think i'm letting e blog go public soon. as in not only people who i tell personally.
so there'll be a significant decrease in 'personal' stuff.

My drawings will remain. Cos, i have to put them up on mi webspace anyway for mi gallery to work.

AHEM. which reminds me, a new link is available.
Zheng Yi's Gallery.
Has all mi er. attempts at art.
Do visit. It's a GROTESQUELY simple webpage. Dun laugh. :)

If I was not zheng yi and didn't know zheng yi, and i chanced upon his friendster acct,
reading his testimonials, I gather that :

(muying)
He's a 'great fren' . well, that's not realli helpful cos i guess anyone who would write his testimonial HAS to be at least a person who THINKS he is a great fren. and a little 'baby' , hmm, this girl muying mus be weird. i doubt he's a baby realli. dun understand. she advises us to 'run over to be his fren'. RUN OVER ? she must realli think he's a good fren. but well, generally not a veri helpful testimonial. skip.
he's 'crappy and funny'. hmm.

Impression : A jester that's a good fren. might be a ' baby ' . i dunno how.

(zhengqi):
this Zheng Yi's fren prob doesn't know him too well. not a veri homogeneous description.
corny + optimistic + hilarious jokes + funny + artistic + smart + talented + nice fren
hmm.

Impression now : A jester that's quite a good fren. shouldn't be a baby. probably has a little bit of talent in e arts. probably doodles? He's probably quite irritating cos he's 'corny'.

(weizhen):
" NONO " ?!?! i think i can quite firmly conclude that this zheng yi guy isn't good-looking AT ALL. he lost weight too. i think he's prob was e typical ' fat smarty pants joker ' kinda guy. ew. and he disturbs girls during physics lecture. i dun think i like this fella. perverted and loud type. " beijing trip " ? i think he's not PRC but prob takes chinese or sth like dat. and physics. odd combi. "tyrannical" ? i dunno how that realli helps, but i've gotta feeling this guy REALLY irritates ppl and gets away with it.

Impression now : A chubby corny jester that's REALLY irritating. maybe a pervert that speaks chinese cos all his frens dun seem to be able to describe him well in english. he's a good fren to them. i dun wanna be his fren. definitely.

(zhengyong):
he's def. cheena. " hong lou meng" ? man. i prob can't even survive a paragraph of that stuff. "interesting and outgoing" , " fun and laughter " , probably e class clown kinda person. prob a good person to bring along for gatherings that might turn out awkward. finally. some clue abt his artistic talent. he draws. yay.

Impression now : A chubby corny but sometimes funny class clown who is cheena and draws. A good fren. i think he's prob not pervert lar. sounds much less irritating now.

(Hazel):
interesting. i think i finally meet a more 'english' fren of this guy. 'closet hard core thinker', this ger introduces a more 3dimensional feel to this guy :he THINKS. good.
she finds him REALLY funny. either she's a corny person or he's a funny person.

Impression now : A cheena, chubby, maybe funny class clown that draws and thinks. not a pervert. hopefully.

(shunzhang):
another cheena fren. finally hanyu pinyin appears. a 'loyal friend' , ' ur greatest foe or good friend ' . " City Harvest on Sun "

Impression now : A REALLY Cheena, chubby, maybe funny class clown that draws, thinks and has some attitude. Maybe he doesn't make frens as easily as i thought.
I seriously think he isn't Christian so either he likes Ho Yao Shan (i can stop trying to know him at dat pt ) or he jus jokes abt her. I'll take e latter .

(Jiabin):
This guy realli thinks zhengyi is a nice person.
"Caring" , "bubbly", "wacky", "accomodating", "interesting".
but it's prob a biased description since he knew zhengyi for a 'very long time liao'.
and "song ic" that "sings well". well well.

Impression now : A chubby cheena fun character that can be corny at times who probably is a loyal fren and has a kind nature beneath all e crap. He draws and probably can sing pretty well.

(willy):
another hanyu pinyin fren. this guy has too many cheena frens. "slimmed down alot"
hmm. maybe he isn't chub now. "reliable and responsible". a "council" person.

Impression now : A big sized person cheena fun character that usually isn't corny, loyal fren, good worker and prob kind beneath all e crap. Draws and sings well. Probably quite popular among e masses , since he's a 'councillor'.

(Muying):
this ger AGAIN. nth helpful besides commenting on his voice again.
Impression now : same as above but well, except that he prob sings "VERY" well.


~~~

egad. I seem tremendously FLAT. like pancake flat character? this is terrible.
guys, PLEASE start writing good testimonials? i mean, even I'M not interested myself now! who'll wanna know me then? haha.

jus joking lar. i'm jus trying to prove 3 things:
1) How ppl formulate impressions of strangers when they read text descriptions.
and trust me, when i read random testimonials, i get e impression that alot of ppl are "fun, funny and good frens".

2) How inefficient and inaccurate text descriptions are at reflecting e true character of a person. it's quite impossible. EVERYONE sounds like each other.

3) How ppl view u and how u view urself is usually VERY different. I'm not saying that u ppl dun know me but well, i guess, everyone's multi-faced. And i realise if u start popping ppl with some descriptions of urself, they're usually in disbelief.
" I din know u were like dat " or " That's totally so not like you! "

lalala.
