e day before a friend leaves...

it was a weird day... 03A1X either kept makin funny remarks or displayed signs of past social isolation... this is a really smart grp of lads , ive to say, but e day was anti-norm...

~ 1st was mighty dudley... not juz is he intelligent n thinks massively alot, he's e kind who almost knows everythin fun, u can say... but when we were in e midst of tokin cok abt e Xbox game Topspin n how roger federer wld be peerless, i suggested maybe an akuma sld b created to match federer's godliness... he plainly askd, "who is akuma?"...

~ at chomp chomp, john n i were tellin teck meng how electrifyin e 1998 movie Stormriders was, n he, knowin v well tt aaron kwok n ekin cheng were e leads, suddenly quipped, "e show was decades ago ah?"...

~ then after i revealed there's actually tiz larger-than-life Bu Jing Yun in his trademark "sittin-n-contemplatin-on-e-rooftop" above a comics shop in katong, teck said, "so it's cardboard 1 lah?"... oh my... a cardboard Bu Jing Yun, tts wat e great "asperity" teck thot in his vast mind...

~ n seemingly not to be outdone in e uncanny quest to be out-of-this-world, john looked at our wanton mee, was tempted to order 1 too, n askd if we really were eatin wanton mee... at our muted astonishment, he threw, "why wanton mee got char siew?"...

n then teck flew off to canada... he's a part of 03A1X, my clique in JC... got to know him better only in J2, n realised he's a great bud... but when NS came along, didnt contact much oredi... yet recent times tgt after ORD, our trip to crescendo, n w his impendin departure drawin closer, we hung out more... honestly, quite an awesome guy lah... e kind always there for u, n nvr 1 who puts on a facade... it was e day before he flies off, n 03A1X met at his house, played ard in his room, n went to our friendly neighborhood's chomp chomp n grapevine... he needed to see geraldine 1 last time! ha... i thon-ed at his place, played e nite away, til dud n john came agn e nxt day to send him off...

nxt time we see him, we'll be in uni, i sld hav my drivin license, he wld hav finishd year one, n santa's comin to town... till then!

nothing

tan kheng hua's Do Not Disturb is smart. Manchester United 7-1 Roma. i carried e trojan virus n infected some people, sorry. damn it NSFs juz got a pay rise. Flags of Our Fathers, Letters from Iwo Jima, TMNT, Transformers, Harry Potter, Spiderman 3, Resident Evil: Extinction, Pirates 3, AVP 2, Bourne Ultimatum - this is a huge year for e cinemas. a bowl of bubur chacha is so unhealthy. ive been runnin occasionally since ORD, but it's hittin me tt my system is deteriorating. 300 is awesome for action, but maybe too stylised for a true story supposed to celebrate e courage of afew against odds. e M Hotel's tempura man knows nth except fryin tempuras, coz i saw someone needin his help slicin a piece of lamb, n he panicked. Shooter was rather good, unexpectedly, but im glad i didnt know e plot beforehand. there's so much politics workin at Greenhouse Ritz-Carlton. ive read miller's Death of a Salesman, orwell's 1984, haddon's The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, coelho's The Alchemist and zindel's The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds since ORD. global warming n climate change are fuckin serious. i disagree w e timing of e ministers' pay rise. n wth, benchmarkin their pay against GDP?. eternal sunshine of the spotless mind. my sis does good cookies n seafood alfredo lasagne. so many 21st to attend tiz year, done are ziyun, chunsi, rachel, yong seng, meiting (shaun forgot about me). earned $200 thru e 15days of CNY caiqing. whitley's mr calvin au yong actually remembers me.

some people have kindly reminded me about e lack of anythin on this blog for awhile now... u see, there really aint much happenin... tt's why... this isnt e kind of blog tt posts every paltry event... n my life's been a bore... maybe i'll put up some photos or sth...
