Saturday, February 25, 2006 My right big toe was disfigured today. From almost perfect, it became almost... unperfect. ![]() This is how my right toe would look like if it's on the x-ray. Of course, it's not mine 'cause I haven't actually done anything about it yet. I'm still surviving by walking slowly, inch by inch. I can twist my toe up but the pain is oh-so-unbearable when I pushed it downwards. Ouch! It's not a bunion. Fortunately. I got it while I was playing soccer. Now I think I won't be able to touch my I'll blog more about today, tomorrow. I'm freaking tired now (i.e. fired!!!). Gotta get some rest and study for IPRA tomorrow! The paper is on Tuesday! What am I doing here? Blah! Thursday, February 23, 2006 I swear this is the most talked about topic yesterday, at least among the Year 1 DMC students: Econs is over! YES! YES! YES! I can hear it everywhere and even the slightest smile carved on someone's face could tell the relief from this module that everyone dreaded. Argh. But the wait is finally over! Hahahahaha! *evil laughter* The paper wasn't THAT difficult, but it wasn't THAT easy either. It was rather... manageable. Yeah. I blanked out at certain questions which my classmates would go, "That was freaking easy lah!!!" Plus, I added the ones I left out due to time constraints and it all added up to....... .... well I just hope I can get through half of the paper. 'cause I'd pass this module overall and not retake it in next semester! Urgh. I really, really don't wanna touch Econs again. I suck at it, can? After the Econs exam, I went out with my friends to have lunch and guys, please, please, please... don't let what happen yesterday, happen ever again. We took such a freaking long time to decide where we should go after loitering around at Bugis Junction! 45 mins to be exact! I don't know what went wrong with us but I guess that's the consequence of having too much time to kill! You just wouldn't know what to do! Anyway, I went my own way by heading down to City Hall to meet my friends. I kinda have some MORE time to kill as we're supposed to meet only at around 4.30pm. So I decided to It's so difficult to find a suitable present! I wanted something original from myself, something made by my own hands like a cross-stitch or something but... we'll see how things goes. Hmmmm... So, I tap my card onto the reader and walked towards Citylink and all of a sudden I saw this young lady aiming me. She had her eyes on me. No that sounds a bit too far. She actually made eye contact with me from afar, like as if we're long lost friends or something! And I have no choice but to walk past her and of course being stopped in my tracks as she approached me ala a salesperson... Young lady: Hi, excuse me... Can you spare a moment or two? Me: Yeah sure.. What was I thinking?!?!? Young lady: We're looking for models currently.. Me: I'm sorry? Young lady: We're looking for young talents to be our model currently and you seem to be suitable for our company. Me: Oh okay... Young lady: So could you give me your name and your number and we'll contct you for an interview soon? The conversation went on somwhere along that lahh.. So I went to give my name and HP number, in which she gave her company card in return... ![]() And I thought she was a freaking salesperson in the first place! Holy shit! Then I went on walking, thinking "Me? Model?" I think even my reflection in the mirror would laugh his head off... No, no... that's way too scaaaarrryyyy. There sure have been a lot of people being approached by this kinda 'salespeople' whom would always worship Orchard Road every weekend. So whatever happened to them? Yan said that they have to do their own portfolios, meaning take their photos the makeover-style and that would mean spend hundreds for it! And worse still, after the REAL photoshoot for a client, these so-called 'modelling agencies' would take all your commissions away and you're left with no money at all! All your efforts gone down the drain because of these motherfuckers! In other words, these 'models' are being conned. Yan's friends learnt it the hard way, and I surely don't wanna follow their path! I seem to generalise every modelling agencies but sorry, they way they approach me is waaayyy too casual and unconvincing anyway. Besides, I don't wanna be a part-time model. It just ain't my cup to tea... Singapore beat Iraq with a score of 2-0 but I'm more concerned with the crowd actually. So damn bloody pathetic lahh!!! Where's the crowd from the Tiger Cup final? Where seas of red filled up the stadium to its fullest till you have to stand and sit on the steps? Oh wait.. maybe because it's a Wednesday. Oh well... what a pussy. IPRA exam is next week and I already feel that my exams are over and done with. What the fuck am I thinking!?!?!? Monday, February 20, 2006 Alright, I'm taking time off from studying my Econs here. I know it's against Thanks to Edwin Ng who introduced me to this small exercise, which is of no stranger to my classmates I suppose, which managed to... give my brains a little time off. Sounds familiar, my classmates? Haha, how we dread that module... Anyway, this link has got nothing to do with a 'ghost' face appearing right before your eyes that'll make you have nightmares or spam you with porn sites everyday. It is as innocent as it sounds. =) *** Everyone seems to be jumping on the bandwagon of expressing their views on the recent Paris Hilton-like sex tape of a NYP student, except that it's done Singapore-style- using the handphone camera.But of course, before that could have happened, they have also jumped on the bandwagon by viewing the 10-min sex tape. Gotcha! Don't you dare tell a lie there! I'll be honest here, I've watched the video. It seems that it has received a lot of flak from fellow Singaporeans. Why wouldn't it right? It's against the moral, ethical and whatever-values-you-can-think-of, of many Singaporeans. One positive point we can all take note: At least the guy is practising safe sex by using a condom! Indirectly, this is how 'sex education' should be. Not like those boring and dead video clips produced by the Ministery of Educashen. See lah, who ask you invent a 2 megapixel camphone? I told you a handphone should be for calling and sms-ing only, you don't want to listen... Disclaimer: I may have mocked, without any sense of sensitivity, about the issue here and twisted the story till it sounds... unserious. But the girl (victim) is facing a much worse reality. She's hot on everyone's lips right now, all for the wrong reasons; NYP has received much publicity, bad ones that is. And for all this I sympathize the parties affected. With all due respect I wrote from my heart, without any intention of hurting anyone. *** Shiqi, I hope you've booked the chalet for the class 'cause I only saw 'X' 'X' 'X' 'X' 'X' thorughout on the dates that we've planned to book the chalet on. And I'm really, really praying hard that it won't clash with my expedition date. They haven't even confirmed the date for it!!! Shucks! I'm suppose to do a 1000-word article for a competition but I don't have the heart to do it. What should I do? Tell the truth or force myself to complete it? Can someone be my guiding light for me here.... 1 more day to Econs paper - Not mentally ready. That's bad. The battle lost before I even touch the battlefield. Fitri very happy. Fitri go shopping. Fitri bought shoes. Very nice. Fitri like. But Fitri sad, Fitri see $129 go 'kerching!' and out of Fitri's wallet, just like that. Fitri also ot Topman's shirt. Fitri happy again. Fitri see nice shirts but Fitri no more money. So Fitri say, "Next time then I get it." Fitri now want to be a smart shopper. Fitri don't want to waste money. Fitri likes Bugis Street. Fitri can bargain. Very cheap. Very good. Fitri clever. Now Fitri worried because Fitri sick. Fitri nose is running around and away from Fitri. Fitri got exam on Wednesday. Fitri scared. Fitri don't want to fail, Fitri don't want to repeat Econs next semester. Fitri trying his best but Fitri not so confident. Fitri asks, "How like that?" Now Fitri want to sleep. Fitri need rest. Tomorrow then Fitri continue to study. Fitri say, "Bye-bye!". Fitri say thank you for reading his irritating post. Fitri not acting cute. Fitri will angry if you think so. Fitri smirks *Fitri reminded of Xiaolin* and tell you straight in the face, "Now I've got my name screwed into your head!" Thursday, February 16, 2006 For the first time since I-don't-know-how-many-seasons-ago, American Idol managed to move me to tears. Not once, but twice. OMG. For once, I'd scrap the Chinese idiom that goes, 'Man only shed blood, they never shed a tear'. Did I get it right there? Heh. If you had watched the entire episode of AI on last Wenesday night, you wouldn't have missed this 3 cowboys. Well, let's not mention about their bad singing of course. Let's talk about looovveee, people. There's so much of brotherly loooovvveee between them! OMG! Especially the last part, when they were all rejected and were made to go home. The youngest of the lot teared, only to be consoled by the eldest guy who acted like a true brother to all of them... Aaaawwww..... I suddenly found myself scrambling for a piece of tissue, can! And the second tear-dropping-exercise was saved for the black brothers, don't mean to be racist there. Fast-foward to the last part of the show where ALL the participants, who made it through the next round, were put together in one room. High-fives were exchanged, hugs was thrown around. But in one corner of the room, there stood one lonely soul waiting patiently for his brother to come before him, praying that they'll share this dream of theirs together. And the tearjerker part came when he finally saw his brother and hugged him tightly as tears of joy and relief roll down his cheeks. AAAAAAHHHH!!!! ANOTHER TISSUE PLEASE!!!! So touching lah!!!! Brotherly love rocks man! One doubt though, the shots were perfect. Too perfect for it NOT to be scripted. But the emotions were so real... is the cameraman really that experienced to anticipate such a moment or did he just play his cards right? Either way, I don't give a damn. Brotherly love.... [peace sign] Wednesday, February 15, 2006 Imagine yourself reading the short 'movie trailer' below in a low, husky voice. Brokeback Mountain... ![]() ...between two people... ![]() ...whom you might have already realised by now... ![]() This movie got numerous OSCAR nominations, if you had not known. Funny enough, movies that aren't really favourites among us are those which, somehow in one way or another, manage to win the highest accolade. Who remembers the movie 'Million Dollar Baby'? ![]() I didn't even bother to get my ass off from my seat and onto to the cinema's to catch it! And it's a nominee for 'Best Picture' back in 2004. Crap. Does 'Seabiscuit' rings a bell to you? ![]() It's a nice movie, yeah... very touching and inspirational. It can even make you tear even if you're known to be the 'coldest' person in the cinema. (No pun intended there...) Well that's what I heard from people 'cause... I GAVE IT ANOTHER BIG MISS!!! And guess what? I feel like killing myself back then when the OSCAR's nominees' list came out! "Darn fucking hell, I should have jumped on the bandwagon and watched the show even if it means nothing to me except that it reminds me of the Singapore Turf Club in Kranji," I reflected, a little too late I guess. You recall the tale of mutants with superhuman powers, aided by great computer graphics and brought together by superb custom animations? I am talking about X-Men 2 back in 2003 here. ![]() It's damn great movie which kept me breathing till it rolls the last of its credits. But horses? Neigh. Chicken Little thought he had won an OSCAR award, at least for the worst cartoon EVER! ![]() But better luck next time, bro. Maybe you should incorporate horses into 'Chicken Little 2'. Perhaps that could boost your chances of winning... at least something. Here's the trailer to Brokeback Mountain, for you gays... ooops I mean guys. This time, I'm gonna catch the movie. I hope the cinemas have special discounts if you bring your partners along, gay or not. Sunday, February 12, 2006 I Friend: Hey tmr what time you free? Me and Haikal need your advice on the courses that we can apply... So I went on with the conversation... Me: Most probably at 2, I got a test tmr. You and him die die wanna go into SP ah? Friend: Hey, don't say like that lah... so gay. Me: Den? Friend: I just want someone to talk to... Me: Wah lau! That one more gay ah! My towel nearly dropped. And no, it's not my brother's fault. I die die will make sure that he's straight. Saturday, February 11, 2006 Finally, the long-awaited break is here! Actually this study week isn't the same as last semester's one where I got one whole week to do my revision before my final exams. On this coming Monday, I have 1) Econs make-up class (maybe) 2) NW CA. Tuesday there's IVP CA, Wednesday BPS CA... I might as well got to school! By right, the long-awaited break isn't this. It is the 6 weeks holiday after the whole exams! Yippee!!! I just can't wait for it. Yesterday was the release of the 'O' level results and thinking back, time seemed to pass so fast! It is exactly 1 year ago that I have exactly the same emotions as those who received their results yesterday. Nervous, anxious, afraid that I'll do below my expectations... and the list goes on. Fortunately, I drew the right cards to win the game. Muahahaha! I still can't believe it that I managed to pass my Maths after failing for one whole year. I bet my Maths teacher has little hope on me by the time I took my Maths paper. But hey, Mr Fam! I got a B3!!! But.. but.. but.. English was a disaster. I wonder where I went wrong. If only I could see the paper. Sigh. To Herwan and Haikal, consider your options carefully alright! It's not necessarily a deadend for you guys. In fact, I don't think you guys did badly at all! Maybe it's not up to your expectations and all but look to the positive side of life guys! And what a magnificent way to end my day yesterday. Almost half of my class turn up to support Shiqi in her dance concert. And it costs a freaking $5 only! Very worth it i should say. Very very worth every single penny paid. I personally like the hip-hop dances, no offence to ballet and modern dancers! It's just a personnal preference. =) I love the beatbox performance by Bryant, whom you should very well know by know, is the 2nd runner-up for the 987 Beatbox competition. This guys very talented, and can get freaky sometimes. He can just lean the mic on this throat and there'll be music coming out from there! Scary... And I love the collaboration with one other beatboxer and a dancer even more! The dancer was cool, his dance moves were superb. It was those slow, robotic ones where every part of your muscle practically moves together with the music. He even moved his freaking chest muscles! OMFG. That, I have to take off my hat for him. The 'Motion Effects' group was another high point of the night. They're a year or two younger than me but their dance moves were freaking slick and well-coordinated. Simple movements yet all done perfectly in unison. My jaws almost touched the floor halfway through their performance. Another thing I love about them is their humility. There's something about them that just shows that they aren't like those show-offs who boast about their dancing skills. That's the way to go guys! Okay, let's digress a little here, I wanna ask if anyone out there do believe that flowers... can be horny too. And they do show that by their name. ![]() ![]() I'm sorry if the Nipple tree was not kinda obvious there. Perhaps the tree wasn't 'high' when I was there. I really wonder why they got their names as so! As if there's a distinct lack of names revolding around the world. If you had a chance to name your child, worse come to worse, your son's name will be 'Dick'. I'm very sure you'd avoid using the word 'Cock' or for a matter of a fact, 'Vagina' for your daughter, right? Oh, I got these pictures from the 'Sentosa Flowers' event that I went to last Saturday with Yan. ![]() At first I thought I'd be bored to death. ![]() But I encountered some unique sights, among which is a... water-sprouting dragon? ![]() And the organizers were expecting some unexpected guests at the event too, considering the fact that it is an annual event. And I didn't know mermaids were on their guest list. ![]() I was so disguested that I avoided the vending machine totally. I really had the urge to eat the flowers there. There were so many of them and they're everywhere! ![]() Here are my evidences of the scary invasion of flowers that I witnessed first-hand. It seemed that they have set up their base at Sentosa for good. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I was relieved that we managed to weather the flowers. The road seemed endless! But it was pretty nice and refreshing. I didn't know flowers are therapeutic too. Thanks Sentosa! Be sure to send me an inivation for the next invasion that you're planning on right now! ![]() One last look at Sentosa before we make our way home... ![]() ![]() She sure had fond memories over at Sentosa. I nearly board the bus back to Harbourfront without her. ![]() Oh how I dig pohotgraphy. I just don't have the resources to get one digicam. =( Maybe I'll get one when I have my own salary... or is my mum kind enough to get one for me for my birthday? I am not positive for that... I really, really would love to participate in mini-video competitions as what Ms Kwa had said. But where do I get the manpower and time from? Hmmm... anyone out there sharing the same passion as I do? Tuesday, February 07, 2006 ![]() If you have not recognized it, that man wearing the number 23 jersey of Real Madrid is none other than Mr David Beckham. If you had not heard it, that is the very same man who was nicknamed 'Goldenballs'. Now not everyone has the opportunity to see the truth behind that nickname. I guess some people are more than willing to go the extra mile to see the 'truth' with their own eyes. Sunday, February 05, 2006 The camera died when we were filming literally the last scene of the whole 2-min clip! Last scene leh!!! How cruel can the videocam be? I feel like whacking it to the floor and prise open all the parts that was so ever-thightly screwed together. But come to think of it, I don't have a cheque of $10,000 to pay for the it. I can buy the cheque book, I can enter the required sum but I simply can't sign my name on it. No, no (shakes head violently). I feel like crying already... But Eleine's optimistic attitude and assurance comforted us. She's such a big influence. She speaks her mind out; when she open her mouth, everyone I feel so guilty making Eleine's sister rot in the car for so long and when the engine finally started, the videocam died. Grrr... Stupid, moronically-idiotic battery. Saturday, February 04, 2006 Darn it!!! The last week of school is here, and ever since I got out of the pri/sec schoo days, there is nothing to be happy about there. One study week and soon, the exam papers will be staring right into your face. Right... IPRA has an exam? Wow! And Mr Ang have never even go through ANY paper with us; he said the past years' papers were in the Blackboard. So we can go there and look up to it and... Yeah sure, we'll do that Mr Ang. IPRA has an exam... Hah! I'm laughing 'cause I'm reflecting how I'm gonna prepare for it. Never even revised any of the notes even once. And tutorials? Forget it. And Econs! Oh my Economics! Macro and micro-economics! I'm like a lost ship (or sheep) out there, trying to figure out where my guiding light will beam its ray from. Hahahaha... that's in 2 weeks time. Hahahahaha! I can go senile, man. Really. Deadlines, urgh, deadlines. Gotta act professional, fitri. But what for when others don't? We've got our own stuffs to complete so why not put aside feelings and emotions and get things done, just as the way it is? Make any sense there? Emotions can be changed, but deadlines will remain unmoved. Get that reality nailed deep into the head. Oh how I love stress. It just makes me a different person altogether. ATTITUDE inteview, IPRA report, IDEAS presentation, DVPA 2-min short film, WP website, IVP essay CA, NW feature article CA... I hope the list stops there. Wednesday, February 01, 2006 Though it is a rather common sight, I only began to notice its significance lately. It's either I have been sitting under the big 'ol rock for too long a time, unknown to the things happening around me. Or the rise of it has been sharp. Way too sharp. Ever seen a mixed relationship? Not a lesbian-gay kinda thing but rather a mixed-race one. Malay guy with Chinese girl, Indian lad with a Malay lady. It's kinda nice to see that we're 'mixing' well with each other. Amidst all these talks of terrorism, it's pretty heartening to see that racial harmony is still going on strong in Singapore. But at the back of my mind, somehow, I feel that the PAP has 'employed' some couples to do so. The General Elections, remember? I guess people wanted fresh things after being dished with expansionary fiscal policies everytime a GM approaches. Haha, thanks Econs. But that's beside the point. Before I kena sued for slender, I'd like to make it clear that that was just a thought of my wandering mind. Still, I'm puzzled. By the drastic increase. It's so sudden! Out of the blue, I see these mixed couples everywhere! In the trains, along Orchard Road, under the void decks, everywhere! Seriously speaking, why do people go for a partner that is NOT of your own race? I bet that out of 10 mixed couples, only 2 will remain together for long. Of which 1 is out of true love. The other pair? Well the last time I met them, they said they've broken up. 'cause they're sick of each other already. Maybe the girl doesn't want to eat prata for breakfast everyday and the guy had enough of chee cheong fun and all. Not to be a racist here but admit it people, you go for someone that's not of your own race just because you wanna have a taste of it. And don't imply that being together with a person of the same race as you are will guarantee you eternal love! It's a case-by-case basis, geddit? Who wouldn't wanna date someone a Caucasian if you had the chance to? You know it would just be a fling but hey, at least that can go into your personal resume! I bet girls would go for (enter name) if he said he would wanna have a chance to date a Singaporean girl. Just make sure you promote Singapore to him, if you're that lucky girl. Tourism plays a big part in Singapore's economy, you see. |
