Whoa! miserable christmas in sight...

I have this gut feeling that this will be my lousiest christmas ever for all twenty years of my life.... That is, excluding next year, where I will be running around in fatigues, courtesy of SAF....

I have set a new record for being in school! A whopping 13 hours man!~ Can you believe this? Now I actually spend more time in school then at home.... I feel so sad and stressed with so much project work.... I can also feel the tension rising in my final year project group.... This really sucks big time....

To top it off, I now have a raspy voice from too much coughing and wheezing... coughing out ENORMOUS globs of phelgm so concentrated that it can glow in the dark... I always wondered why our lungs can actually produce something so green and disgusting when I check the glob of &^$&%$*&% I coughed out to make sure that it dosen't contain any blood in it. I dun want to die before Christmas from TB and especially not when there is an assignment due on the coming Monday after Christmas...

I can feel that this Christmas is really miserable man... To lighten the sufferings, I decide to listen to christmas carols this few days to get myself into the mood... It would definitely help in alleviating my mood if some kind soul would just get me the Hamiliton Ventura I have been eyeing for the last few months....

Thats all for today folks !~ Please excuse me while I go back to my carols !~

Movie Day Yeah!

Peeps!

Today was great fun man... Caught a movie with Nix and Gary. Nix got 2 free tickets and me and Gary being the nice gentleman we always were each splited the cost of the paying ticket for Nix and that was like only $2 for a movie....( three of us ) Shiok !~ We watched National Treasure and it is quite exciting!~ Nicholas Cage looks as good as he was in Face-Off ! I just loved conspiracy movies like this... I read somewhere that Tom Hanks is casted for The Da Vinci Code... Woo !~ I cant wait for that movie too...

After watching National Treasure and was walking out of the cinema, we suddenly felt adventurous ourselves and decide to sneak into the next cinema and behold ! The next cinema was showing Alexander ! Holy Cow! We then sat down for the movie... After a while, we went to the toilet to answer our urge and returned to continue watching... We were careful to act like paying patrons when we went back this time round. There was a cinema employee stationed outside the cinema looking at us the whole time.... Hahah ! To think we manage to pull this off under her nose! Yeah!

Alexander wasn't so great from what I managed to watch... He looks gay in skirt /toga and he always exchanges loving glances with that friend of his... Digusting piece of s**t ! Makes me wonder whether if Colin Farrell is gay in real life.... give it a miss if you can! The battle scenes were boring anyway with fog of war obscuring everything... Imagine thousands of horse galloping across a plain all at the same time and you get the picture.... Argh! Wish that we had sneaked into a cinema showing Blade 3 instead !

Promised to blog and here I am....

Hohoho People....

I promised to blog earlier and here I am writing about my recent happenings......

I intend to cover several days of happening in this blog and you can be assured that its going to be the longest blog I have ever written. So quick grab a mug, get it filled with your favourite drink and get yourself comfortable... oh yes! free a hand for the mouse will ya?

Here goes...

My internship and part-time extension has finally ended.... 5 month plus over in the blink of the eye... I really learnt a lot of things in my 5 months there, I feel that I have grown there immensely and friends that I met during the period commented that I have matured quite a bit.... Something good or bad? I am not sure either.... This experience has indeed enriched my life and exposed me to the harsher realities of working. Undoubtedly, it would be something that will stay with me for life. I vividly remembered the last few hours of my last day was spent in sadness. For I know that it will truly be the end of my stint and I that I will not be back again... at least not in the short term! I know that i will really miss my cubicle, the familiar office settings, the printer and the computer that has accompanied me faithfully throughout my stint. I spent 5 mins walking around the office after work just to experience it for the final time. The office at night is really quiet and a good time to ponder on the happenings during this period. A lot has happened and suddenly I do not know where to start writing..... I am really overwhelmed by emotion now and maybe some things are best left unsaid so that it can be appreciated even more by myself.....

.......
Let me end on a happy note.... I will definitely miss a lot of things and people there.... eg. the Dilly's auntie and her life-saviour coffee. Also my colleagues in NUS OCR that made my stay in NUS truly memorable. Here's a big thank you and hug to all of you ! Please MSN me when you guys see me online k? Cookies has my MSN contact by the way! hahaha!

I went for the abseiling course organised by my unit on 1st Dec 2004, Wednesday. It was held at the diary farm quarry and the long wait nearly killed me and my boys man.... we then expended nearly all our energy walking around the area trying to find the elusive trainer and the right space. So it was really "fun"... You know ! Finally managed to locate the trainer and then it was a long wait again for everybody to have a go at abseiling from the cliff. Maybe it should be held in a smaller group next time ? hmm....
~~~~~~
Went to JB on the 2nd of Dec 2004 with Gary, ah Hao, Nix and Vinz ! The trip while short was extremely fun. We went to Mary Brown and Aunt Annie's to eat.... shiok man! Then it was off to shopping and I spent more then half the money I bought to JB there. The reason? I was persuaded by this sales girl there and suddenly parting with my money has never been easier ! It must be pure magic, I tell you. She is extremely enterprising and should I ever open a shop in future, I will definitely hire her! Oh yes! she's quite sweet looking also... look a bit like my another classmate... My friends says that I am infatuated by her.... Am I ? Certainly not! I was just playing the role of a lovelorn guy infront of them and they actually fell for it ! hahah !
Okok.... I admit that for the slightest moment the idea did flutter through my mind... but long distance relationship are not quite the maintenance free relationship around you know... Haha! Thinking again, I am not ready to be tied down yet....
~~~~~~
Then I spent the weekend bumming around at home and cleaning up my room.... Yucky job assigned from the highest office in my house, the Matriachial Office... Having experienced previous skirmish with mum, its better to give in then risk fall-out later. Did managed to rest my poor butt and aching hands later while skiving... Hee Hee Hee !
~~~~~~
Sch reopened on Monday, 6th of Dec 2004... I decide to self-proclaimed it as " Jonny Day ", my personal holiday. So off I went for a specialist check up in the morning at Mt Alvernia Hospital and by afternoon, I was nearly driven crazy by phone-calls asking me which part of TP I am at that moment. I could almost imagine their face when I told them I was not in sch... Ha hahaha ! Went to bishan to shop and walk around next... Wanted to watch National Treasure but haven premire yet.... sian !
~~~~~~
School sucks even for the second day.... time passes slowly as I waited impatiently to go to Orchard Cineleisure to watch " Casshern " with the usual gang; Vinz, Gary, Ah Hao... The movie was alrightable though I am sure it's not something mainstream audience would like... of course it comes with the usual eye candies, namely the main male and female leads. The storyline is pretty convoluted. Watch it and you will know! Hahaha ! All I can say is that after watching the movie, I am having second thoughts about going for NS...
