tided another bout of severe depression last night. and the 'theme' fer last night's was "inconsequential choices and aimlessness". need i elaborate? think it hit 9 out of 10 on the Ritcher scale (wat on earth is e max for e R-scale aniwae) and i was jus glad i din have a razor in my shoes or the 1000 pigeons will fall before mi feet. It's been so long but well, i knew it would come back anyway. But i spent $9.50 in e end anyway, i know i know. dun nag.

mi bro got himself an ipod. i'm jealous. bah.i'm fine w e 20 GB bit cos i dun need so many songs. but MP4 format! that's jus too much. urg. But at least we have a portable hard disk now.
Great news tho! New PC coming in Sat. From my aunt's office. (it's unbelievable how much of our stuff come from her , my md hifi, my md, our hifi system, our new pc, our handphones (not my lousy 3150 la) ) And it has a CD WRITER! According to dele, EVERYONE has it but heck, i'm still happy i'm getting it anyway. BLEAH. now i wun have to keep finding mi chinese oldies when mi comp crashes and all my stuff will be safe (esp my photos). its some dunno wat Pentium 4 thingy. not very fast la but i heard it faster than my present one so watever.

Singapore Idol again!
Hmm. i thought there was stiffer competition today only cos there weren't any absolutely outstanding contestants.
Joanna Dong chose a bad song, totally flopped, she deserves the boot ,I found her slightly pretentious with all those weird, 'off' (quoting my bro) replies she gave the judges like : " As long as i touched the audience " (with a song like " Bewitched, Bedunnowat" ?!)
Haizad , e malay guy, is freaking handsome. Even my bro and i were in awe. Like aaron kwok man. And i thought he could sing pretty okay jus that it was wrong to choose a song like " What a Wonderful World " to R&B. NEVER tamper with classics. Too bad. But with looks like dat, who needs to be some lameshit sg idol?
Candice was not too bad. maybe a bit too ambitious? cos she couldn't reach the high notes. bit flat. But all in all, a voice w potential. Daphne's realli cute. haha. " I will survive " was very tastefully done, she lacks the power , but she made up with realli spot-on tempo and nice singing techniques. but her voice is too sweet. wun last.
Nathaniel Ho is a joke. And i thought Daniel De Cruz was unmatched. Totally off key , off tune , turnoff.
Noone's VOICE impressed me like Olinda. So looks like chillipadi-butch-laksa-local-flavor ah lian is gonna get her way. Cos the 3rd round of contestants seriously seem like dorks. bah. so much for sg idol.

Going for site duty tomorrow. Another 2 weeks of off and duties. hope nth goes wrong. our platoon has really been down on our luck recently. getting caught having games in our office PC, forgetting the key to a junction box onsite, topping up generators with petrol instead of diesel, leaving stores unreturned, losing maintenance reports.... i hope i'm not next to be jinxed.

I'm really broke this month. Spent ALOT. Pay is in 10 days.
First time my expenditure exceeded my pay for the month. And i still wanna get my last two Tori albums, a Zhao Yong Hua album and maybe a Jason Mraz one ( i have TOTALLY been won over by " You and I Both " , it's rocking good singing ). I have to finish up some pressies for some people. I wanna get the 2 books meiling recommended (bah, realli too expensive tho $30!! ) ....
I am no longer confused. If there's one thing i NOW need in my life more than anything else, it's Money.
"Qian bu shi wan neng de"? To hell with u crap chinese saying.
*mad laughter*

I am really really happy for zzy. Jia you!
守得云开见月明。

saw the Medical officer today. I'm going for an Xray at some other army medical centre and another one at NUH. He suspects wear and tear cos i experienced some pain for one of his leg-bending tests . And if it IS wear and tear , it cannot be remedied unless i :
1) spend $6000 injecting the lubricant in mi knees from time to time (ha.ha.ha.)
2) take some alternative medicine : Glucosim/n (?)
3) go for surgery which will stiffen mi joints
so aniwae, it's quite a common problem among regular joggers so he's not asking me to stop running (surprise surprise! :) ) so i'll jus try jogging for another month before mi xray and then we'll see.

my throat was screwed this morning from the 5-hr-KBOX yelling/screaming/shouting experience yesterday with zhao,dele and later bao bei. As usual, had a rocking good time with F.I.R. and S.H.E. (finding a word dat contains all 6 letters) FISHER! yay. dat took 30sec. i'm quite a genius. ....ANYWAY.... "Lydia" and "Superstar" jus seriously kicks ass, and i love Emil Chau oldies. NOTHING beats oldies (think Jimmy Ye "Zong Shi Ting Ni Shuo" and Li Du's "Hao xiang hao hao")

I signed up for Army Half Marathon (aka Sheares Bridge Run). $12. 26th September. 21 km. I'm freaked out already. I have no idea what got into me. 21. 2. 1. half the east2west length of singapore. (is it?)
And...i'm also going to get a referral letter from the Army Medical officer to xray my left knee. Yes. Both of this at the same time. I suspect a really explosive conflict but i'm still in denial.

I'm glad that there are people picking up Jing Yong's Swordfighting novels to read as the "Heavenly Sword and Dragon-slaying Sabre (god. e translation.)" Taiwan TV adaptation gets popular. Although it's quite ironic that his books have to rely on inferior versions of its contents to attract readers, i'm still glad. But i still can't find my 1st volume for the novel which is jus bastardy.
And since i'm on books, jj actually finished reading both books i got him. *everyone gasps (okay...it's jus me and jb :P)* And it's onli 30th August! Less than a month! And he was hunting for a paperback version for "5 ppl u meet in heaven" which doesn't exist (according to kino n borders), then he actually contemplated getting a hardcover which is $30. *disbelief* A Thirst to READ.... JJ....BOOKS. Can it be?
Buying him books / Making him read -- it MUST be one of my greatest achievements. haha.

U know how dangerous it is when i spend 15 min thinking of how to bake that marshmallow brownie while i was trying to get to sleep last night.
Very.

I don't like arguing.
I don't like having to explain myself.
I don't like people telling me that they have been nice to me even if they really have been.
I don't like big pimples i can't squeeze yet cos it's not ahem...."ripe" (?).
I don't like feeling sleepy all day (it's terrible. i have no idea why. for the past few days.)
I don't like fingers on my neck.
I don't like over-friendly (new) people that think that i dun mean it when i lash at them verbally.
I like 2 cans of Becks and a stick of Virginia Slim Menthol after stuffing myself at dinner. (I could do without the approving look on my dad's face though.)
I like my own brownie. So did my brother, who ate up half of it.
I like running in third for my 4km squadron run at West Coast Park even if it's only because half of the people didn't bother.
I like Benganwan Solo's 9-layered cake.
I like it when people say i'm 'cold', 'unfeeling' or 'heartless', it makes me think i'm much stronger than i think i am.

I walked home today from the bus stop. I visualised my dead body about 5m in front of me on the road beside the pavement. It would be there if i chose to suddenly fall to my right when a car approaches at a high-enough speed. I wondered if the dead body would have been happier than the one walking on the pavement.
~
it's 23:17. The absolutely last minute i can hang around before i'm going to be dreadfully late when i book in. Eeps.
