A former YES 933 and ufm 1003 DJ, he currently blogs on omy.com and teaches at ngee ann poly.
He was a great dj. He speaks with knowledge and character. He is in a class of his own, a fantastic DJ, really. 很有深度,内涵,品味,态度的绅士。
He really is my 偶像! Super idolize him la. Registered for this course of Chinese media n communication partially because he's teaching (and also for my passion in Chinese AND mass comm).

Hope tt tt is true. Can't wait to attend his lessons. Bet it will b fun! Cool 毙了!

:: The Happy! Party Thanks You! ::
Once again, Thank You! For being part of my 23rd Birthday Party, the Happy party. In the midst of the rush rush 4 hours, I missed many opportunities to take much more photographs (Haha) and to make relevant speeches to thank my revered friends and sponsors.
The Happy! Party was the third party, as part of the Pure&Sexy Party series. Thank you to my old friends who have been to all three parties, and hope those who joined me for the first time enjoyed it as well! This year’s event was part of the ongoing Pink month, organised by 5-Degrees Network. It supports GLTB businesses in Singapore. Thank you 5-Degrees and its founder, Mr Willie Chan, for your staunch support for the event and generous sponsorship.
The birthday caps, as well as birthday presents for the other Birthday boy and girl was sponsored by 5-Degrees. Best dressed prizes for the attendees were especially provided by Urban Concepts Connections, which can be found at Cineleisure Orchard. The snack pack in the brown bags were provided by Canteen@P, a snack and drinks corner located at Tanjong Pagar Road, next to Play Club. Party Treats folders and the many items inside were mostly had made and designed by me and my friends Vincent Yeo and Melvin Lum, thank them for helping with the crafts, as well as 5-Degrees for the fund to purchase the materials. The handmade sweets from Sticky can be found at their shop at Central. Thanks to Sticky for the partial sponsorship of the sweets, as well as Marsh (found at Duxton Road) for the bottles. Book prizes for birthday babies were brought to you by Books Actually (on Ann Siang Hill). THANK YOU ALL who helped in a way or another! Thank for the generosity!
I also like to thank each and everyone for your attendance. To my Epiphany Friends, Dianne (and Kenneth), Cassandra, Shimin, Meryl, Michelle and Joseph. Thank you all for the memories and friendship in the past year. Great fun knowing you all! Hope you all had fun!
To Weilun and ChinHuat, thank you bros! See you all sooooon!
To 3238 people (the badminton clique!),Weizhi, Anderson, Ronnie, Roger, Sir Seng and Eugene, thank you all for being a pillar of support in the past years, especially the past year where I underwent a “turmoil”. Haha. You peeps are great people and hope this close knit friendship will last.. Thank you for being here.
To my Chestnuts, Julia, Jian Rong, Cheng Yee, Darius, Guan Yi, Hui Ting, Eunice, Zhiwei, Jonathan and Zhen Hui. You guys ROCK. Thank you thank you thank you! Thanks for being such great friends all these years and looking forward to many more meet ups which are going to be much more fun!

Lots of Love, Hugs and Kisses,
Isaac [Happy! Boy]

Its really no wonder Jolin's new song is SOOO targetted at queers! So many songs are suited for us la.. gyms.. no boyfriend only real man.. evolve into butterfly.. love like parachute.. u happy me internally injured.. soooo many..
anyways.. here's the lyrics for 热冬..
**********************************************************
气候暖化我的心却在冬眠 桃花少到比北极熊还可怜
周末夜也没有半通手机来电 跑步机前才找到养眼画面
不必再control 不必ㄍㄧㄣ爱错回收 看对眼直接行动 这一季将是热冬
当对的你出现会有暖化感觉 在雪花消失前只想和你热恋
热情的拥抱冰山也会溶解 当爱点燃整个冬天
it's gonna be a hot winter a hot hot winter hot winter a hot hot gonna be a
hot winter a hot hot winter hot hot hot hot ...
地球暖化前要去不丹花园 别想南极企鹅孤单在冰原
健身房不该变成相亲地点 满身大汗哪还有浪漫空间
:: 花蝴蝶 ::
only want to be pretty
I have evolved
and am still constantly
evolving....
*************************************************************************
花蝴蝶 歌手:蔡依林
环游了世界全世界
却发现美丽没有旗舰店
谁穿着钉鞋不肯变
停止了自转变成一个茧
你我都希望特别
又不敢太过于特别 yeah
流行是一种安全
搔着闷骚的太阳穴
你是花花世界里限量版的花花蝴蝶
美女们只是比较豁出去比较敢一点
花蝴蝶的美的艳的炫若没三审定谳
那些路人甲们凭什么发言惹人讨厌
快离开冬眠赶快破茧
别被无聊困在地球表面
想灵魂出窍甩平凡嘴脸
就自创品牌靠自己变脸
当你不刻意特别
突然就会变得特别 yeah
只要别越描越黑
你的眼睛就会放电
你可以瞬间飞去东京巴黎米兰纽约
别让别人嘴里的形容词左右你视野
如果有人的魅力足够为这世纪代言
那是她敢站出来变成蝴蝶飞舞翩翩
那些路人甲们凭什么发言惹人讨厌(准备惊艳)
你可以身穿花花限量的花蝴蝶
你可以比你想象中再爱炫再敢一点
你可以自己决定没得最后三审定谳
你可以让路人甲闭嘴惊艳

:: 妥协 ::
所有改变 只为了进入 你的世界
这情节 重复了一百遍
才发现 是你的心太野
你 画定楚河汉界 我 不能轻犯规
所有时间 都是先给了 你优先权
不自觉 爱到不敢冒险 成了你的傀儡
一年 两年 才看见 我有多狼狈
爱到妥协 到头来还是无解
历史不断重演 我好累
爱到妥协 也无法将故事再重写
你已下最后通牒 我躲在我的 世界
你只是害怕一个人睡
我不想再为你掉泪
我了解 不会变 不再徘徊
开始自己的明天

(男生rap)我真的搞不太懂 你怎么会选择寂寞
要的通通都有 就少了那一个男朋友
你还要ging多久 你到底挑什么
听你说得多 不怕我罗嗦 知道我难过 陪着我沉默
手机桌布只有我 很多甜蜜小动作
自己吃饭没胃口 刷卡之前先问我
喜欢我朋友 也会爱我的狗

总是大方介绍我 什么节日都记得
陪我减肥吃苹果 帮我买口红
I don't want a boyfriend
I need a real man
诚实的嘴 可靠的肩 温柔的眼
I don't want a boyfriend
I need a real man
Real man! Real man! Real man! Real man!
何时出现 何时出现 何时出现 何时出现
会玩会工作 会疯会生活
会下厨会运动 会爱会做梦
又像男孩又成熟 对我大方自己抠
教我绝招打电动 什么都有我
I don't want a boyfriend
I need a real man
诚实的嘴 可靠的肩 温柔的眼
I don't want a boyfriend
I need a real man
Real man! Real man! Real man! Real man!
可会出现 可会出现 可会出现 可会出现

:: it's a Happy world! ::
especially friends whom you can talk freely to
without any prohibitions
first,
its my sports camp friends from NP
wow
they are young, nubile, innocent
and they are soooo fun to be with
its interesting to see the world through these youngster's eyes
without being tainted by the troubles of adulthood yet..
orh....
next,
my friends from Trevvy
one afternoon together of bitching and yeah!
instant hit off..
its the kind of friends i've always looked forward to..
yes! they ARE friends..
btw..
i'm sooo looking forward to the new project we will be undertaking
which we will have a room up on mt emily
which we can hang out
play games
and chill with fellow people
and feel "belonged"
more importantly
we can be there to help others like us
to feel save, to "belong"
and we can all be together without feeling awkward
cool eh?
its time such a place is set up for queer youths in Singapore
somewhere not sleazy
somewhere where theres no alcohol and sex
somewhere which is common in overseas
somewhere which is lacking in Singapore
really..
being queer should not be simply constrained to random sex
dancing and party..
no no no!
its time this place came!
yeah!
Its going to be such a nice place..
so uber looking forward.

:: sinking ::
But I think we have.
The regularity of his overseas trips.
The frequent nights out at Play.
The ostentiably long working hours.
The expectable foreplay n sex.
The lunches and dinners.
The stay overs.
When it becomes this regular.
When it becomes this used.
When everything is so planned and expected.
After one year...
One gets tired.
And thoughts start running through your head.
Random naughty thoughts runs thru my head.
Sunken in.
Isaac, beware.

:: when I was 17... ::
Looking at my OG for sports camp, I can't help but feel old.
For one, I'm not able to be so energetic. Pubescent, growing, eager, enthusiastic.
I wish I can be.
I tried, I think, I hope.
But more importantly, I am amazed by the strong bonds they have former, even in just the first 2 days. The friendship, the spirit, is admirable.
Because at that age, we do not so much see the complexities of life. More often than not, friends were the ones you talk to, to share your life with. And at tt age, as long as you can talk, no matter the topic, you will find immediate relations. Afterall, you do not actually know tt much things to have diverse opinions.
The girls have bonded by night one, even sitting on each others lap, discussing the guys..
The guys on the other hand, have formed cliques. They are good friends, with certain similar passions in certain activities, hitting the right freq.
Wow.
A fee years down, at my age, we start to stick to our old cliques. Well well. When making new friends, we are often biased, have our own list of expectations. We start to judge people, often biased. We always suspect if this "friend" is close to us if for some reasons.
It is difficult. Blame it in the society.
How I wish I can really be like them. Used to think their conversations were childish. On second thoughts, I think it is innocence. Something I've lost and yearn to gain back again. Something I'm jealous they have.
I really hope to gain back my youth, my vibrance, forging ties with these youngsters.
I tried, I try, trying...

:: reflections - aimless ::
On days when I'm not out shopping.
I feel wasted.
I know I've a target a goal
But at many times
I am just an aimless soul
Parading myself to the crowd.
No cash on hand.
No motivation, really.
No destination in mind.
Just wandering.
What do I really want in life?
At this age, when people are busy with chasing
Dreams, technology, the ultimate modern day lifestyle.
I feel left behind.
A true otaku. Probably.

:: acting busy ::
But the truth is, I cannot be more free. I've wasted enough time. And as much it seems tt I've a packed schedule, I'm actually just idling most of the time.. Waiting.. For something to happen. Really.
I've got orientation camps to attend. But I feel.. Lethargic. Because I see no reason now to attend. The enthusiasm has very much faded. In fact, I feel old to be in company of these "ru xiu wei gan" kids. I try to think I'm young n enjoy.. But.. 一言难尽..
I'm contemplating whether or not, to go for tmr's FOC. Can't blame.. My injured leg is also another reason prohibiting me..
Well..

:: more than ever ::
I chose Chinese media and communication over mass comm because it's a combination of both my passion in Chinese and mass comm. Also because of the niche market it aims. A small pioneering cohort and prospects with the diploma was also taken into consideration. Finally, the year three overseas immersion was also interesting experience I looked forward to.
I did my registration of course today, and with just a little admin to settle by post, I am prepared for school next month.
Oh, my Exciting life in np is starting ss early as this week as I've signed up for sports camp. Wednesday! Yay! Look forward to it. And hopefully I can join the db team. Haha..
There's also SU camp next week and humanities school camp on the week before school starts!
And oh ya! There's the Happy party on 4/4/09! Looking forward to see all u friends then! Yay!

:: to 宅 or not to 宅 ::
due to my leg pain (probably because of suppressed vein)
i hardly go out if not for work
and most of the time
i lay on my bed..
coz even sitting down is painful..
bleah!
and the kaypo in me decided to quit my job as an admin assistant (fulltime)
and then the next day accept the job as events coordinator (part time)
now let me make a comparison between the jobs..
admin assistant:
-full time pay (alot lo)
-average three day work week in office (each less than 5 hours)
-work from home the rest of the time on comp
-some nights on comp working on website admin stuffs..
-very easy job..
-climb stairway to heaven thrice weekly
-event coordinator:
-part time pay (1/2 to 2/3 of full time pay)
- work average three day in office ( less than 3 hours, in evenings..)
- noting to do at home, just some simple admin
-many nights at clubs!!! INCLUDING SUNDAY! bleah!
-i have to be out and show my face in the clubs.. bleah!
-i've to climb stairway to heaven to collect things/get a ride whenever there's event.. bleah!
-i get sick and tired of muscle marys sticking up to me with their naked bodies!!
bleah.. they are so bloody disgusting.. and giving them a condom does not mean i want you to fuck me! bleah!
luckily Play is temporarily closed..
the "new" job is quite relaxed actually
just tt i'm now really out in clubs almost every other night
really don't know what to tell my mum
working at a club? salah leh
then? hmm..
but the pay is quite okay
and i can still study and handle this job
(boss say i can stop handling superstar sundays when i start school)
and most impt.. the PAY!
i need money, alot..
one PLUS thing..
i now attend parties which W attends too!
in the past i shun the events because i'm just not such a social butterfly
now
i'm constrained by the job
so i get to eye him while i'm working and
the work practically entails me being friendly and partying..
whats there not to like of a job that is just partying?
the CROWD! i really have yet to feel totally comfy about it..
alright.. its just me!
its a dream job to some of my aj friends
but for me..
if not for the money..
bleah!
but next sunday's Superstar Sunday will be interesting..
haha
there's the contestants of Manhunt 2009..
and i've a ex-schoolmate who's in the competition la! so cool right..
do support him okay?
MH12.. Ryan Chong..
totally nv expect la..
but well.. he looks quite good la..
didn't realise back then..
W should have taken part back when he was younger lo
will have won..
but his youth was wasted on..
overseas studies / working in tt green company..
bleah!
well.. based on the fact tt i'm blogging at such wee hours..
yup.. because i just came home from work
and yup.. i'm back to my 宅 days until the next work day.. on wed.. hmm..

:: dear death ::
Today, I saw death in two distinctively different light. One in the case of a student who looked to death after a frustrating confrontation with his FYP prof, another in the case of this year's Academy Award Best Foreign Language Film.
The movie, Departures, was a poignant story of a man, who gave up his career after unsuccessful attempts, as a cello player in an orchestra, which was forced to close down. He went back to his old home in suburban Japan. He looked for a job in the classifieds section and came across one from NK Agent. It was a job to work with "departure". Thinking it was a travel agency job, he went to apply. In reality, it was a job dealing with the departed, in other words, it was a person who take care of a dead person, helping to prep a dead to get ready for entering the coffin, departing to another world.
The people around him, including his wife, played by 广末凉子, thought of it as a improper job, even leaving him saying he was dirty. But through ways, he proved to people it to be a noble job, respectable and something he is proud of.
An understory of him with his father was told, with his parents divorced and his father being a useless man who had extramarital affair. In the end, when he found out his father was dead, it took him a while, until he decided to visit him. With his wife, they drove to a little town and saw his fathers body. It was extremely touching seeing him looking at his fathers face and matching it to the face he has long forgotten since he last saw when he was a child. Unhappy with the way the undertaker took care of the body, he stepped in to do his job, and sent his own father on the final journey. Overall, it was touching, something that felt close to heart and not at all unfamiliar.
On the other hand, an Indonesian Chinese year 4 EEE student from NTU took his own life, slashing his wrist before jumping down a a EEE block. (yah, he jump from a basement level and died, proving the theory tt u can die in NTU even if u jump from a basement) but before tt, he stabbed his FYP professor several times at his office.
So was it a case whereby FYP professor was over demanding that the student could not tolerate. Or was it that he was simply too stressed. I would prefer to think that the prof played a part in this whole disaster. Mayb I'm biased, bit, I can't think of any reason a student would stab him. If too stressed he die himself can le ma.
Still, it's sad la. Why couldn't he just tolerate it for awhile more, project finish in a month or two, then he will grad le. So wasted. Sad la! Stress.. Who is not stressed?haiz ~
I fail so many times, also live on. Tsk. Don't set too high expectations la, be it the student or the prof..
Fun facts about NTU EEE accident:
-ntu south spine highest level is level two. At the EEE buildings, one is Level 1 to basement 5, the other got basement 7.. The two extentions (which I guess is where accident take place) got basement 1-5.. No levels abover ground, haha..
-some say FYP stands for Finish Your Professor. Cruel but funny.
-that guy who died was from hall 4. He was once my neighbour la... Dun noe him personally though.. Someone even said maybe hall 4 will hold the wake, rubbish la!

We popped over to Wild Oats for a round if drinks before an unexpected thing happened. W really went on his knees to propose. I felt really warm n fuzzy deep down, but fortunately, my mind was calm. I've not officially replied but still.. Hope u understand, dearie. I believe we still have a long way to go and getting me to come to terms about us and my family n friends is still one big barrier we need to overcome. I promise, I will do that, soon.
Still, thank you for the wonderful night tt I will always remember, and I LOVE YOU. You know I will reply to that BIG question, I just need time first. And we do have the time... Love u always....
:: 1st anniversary ::
Willie is a man of character. Playful n childish at times, at others, he can be an executive, braving all storms. A thinker, a poet, a man of wise words. A sporty guy, who never fails to inspire the people around him to keep fit with him. A man who is proactive in leading people, who enjoys his networking, a man who knows how to entertain and party. He is a super all rounder.
And today, I'm proud to say he is a great boyfriend.
And he officially proposed today.
We are really in LOVE.

:: 纯音乐享宴::
郭富城的「对你爱不完」,陈亦讯的「谢谢」, 等yoga在「超级星光大道」上用来参赛的歌曲都得道很大的回向。
但是,本人对歌曲的扁排感到很奥恼。快与慢歌的交差都有点wrong。 但这样的无理头或许就是宥嘉的特点。如在一些感伤的怀旧歌曲后加上一首「叉烧包」, 抄热气奋只余也添了几份新鲜感。
特别嘉宾方面,本地的olivia 和女生天团S。H。E,更是让整场演唱会加分不少。
yoga的直摔天性,加上一点玩皮,配合他的特直嗓音,相信是这一切让他能单凭一张专辑,开个唱,还变成巡回。
太棒了!!

:: my funny valentine ::
:: iPhone * emojicon ::
One such thing is Emojicon, one grade above wat we have as emoticon, just much more interesting, some being simply 无理头。
It really is fun working with emojicons to add some fun n color to life.
However, iPhone has been slow moving in japan, mainly due to the lack of emojicon function or applications. The truth is, it exists, just that it is hidden or locked.
Until recently, when people studied it, created applications which seemingly have no link to emojicons, and using special secret codes on these applications, you will be able to unlock the emojicons function on the iPhone n it's keyboard function, and add life, vibrancy, and that tinge of Japanese into your life.
One such application to unbreak the emojicon is Number spell, supposedly used to translate numbers into monetary terms in words for cheque writing n related uses. But by simply keying the secret code 9876543.21, you will unbreak the application's Emojicon Easter Egg function and thereafter can use your emojicons.
Now, let me show u a few of my favourite emojicons which are fun!!
Yup. Be it happy, sad, love u, ok, omg, I'm angry, shit la, I'm sleepy, NO, jiayou, doggie, piggy, beach time, let's play mahjong, go swimming, listen to music, let's have coffee, going drinking, happy birthday, u driving?, and meet at ATM.. All can expressed in just a pic on SMS.
There are hundreds more fun emojicons to brighten up anyones day lo. Cool right??
:: thankful ::
For friends in my life, although maybe not always by my side everyday, mayb we only meet once occasionally, but these are friends I really treasure.
Friends which sometimes we argue, have different opinions, or does actions which I really can't stand.
But to me, they are friends, who understands me, can hold conversations with, can pour my heart out, and talk without any restrictions. They are friends who really care about me as much as I care about them.
Thank you, my friends...
Happy Friendship Day / Valentines Day
I heart u all!!

:: SPORTSeason09 * national vertical marathon ::
60 storeys up Republic Plaza is no easy feat.
I feel great that I was able at least to complete it.
Great achievement. And seriously.. It takes tough mental strength to pull through!

:: SPORTSeason09 * not a good start ::
On another note, National Vertical Marathon will be held tmr morning at Republic Plaza, but I sincerely doubts whether I will be there to attempt, one reason is because it's damn early (which isn't exactly a good reason since runs normally start rather early), while the other reason being my intensely severe backache. Yup. It's back (pun unintended) to haunt and daunt me, sitting down, standing up, lying down or even bending. It doesn't seem to be leaving anytime too soon..
What a bad start to the new sports season of runs and swims...

Even if it's our first valentine together...
Well, yup, work is more impt..
But.. Say of we DO get married this year..
Not even a valentines together as a dating couple...
Not really complaining actually..
Coz I've got rehearsals tt day, so will be spending the day (at least) with a group friends whom I "love"..
Haha..
To console myself: it's valentines everyday as long as love lives in your heart, and you know W will always be there for you.. Literally..

As much as I anticipate and look forward to the gatherings, however, the excitement of seeing these good friends very much fades when I do see them. Is it because we are too used to seeing each other, or are we getting bored and pointless. I really hope not. Probably it's just me.
Also, we celebrated zhiwei, dÂRiùS and hüiTÎNg's birthdays. The same old question arises, are we getting old with nothing accompolished??
Those were the days when garherings used to be fun, and planning each session was a joyous procedure. Since when has it been so routine, it ends up being a chore, troublesome.
The novelty at each session seems to b fading. Used to think of unique places to eat with interesting things to do after.
Nowadays, it seems we have visited everywhere, and end up settling for your run of the mill food places.
In fact, we can only hope that the meal is long wnough for us to be kept busy, and not having to worry about where to go next and what to do..
Has it all been lost?
I wonder....

:: LNY09 * lessons learnt ::
and all the celebratory mood seems to have faded off
miloboi feels nostalgic
and a little more carefree
I have nothing alse to look forward to in the near future
except postings this coming friday
which somehow depends my fate
i really hope that my new year wishes can come true
and i can do somthing i really really lurve!
other than that
it seems that i'm just wasting my days away
with new year somehow passed
i shall be waiting for the next gathering
my "belated birthday party"
hope to get busy with it soon
and relive the moments that i had
enjoy planning for my 21st 2 years back
it was a big celebratory
what's important was that i had all my cousins and friends with me
THAT felt good.
maybe its a fact that when we past the 21st birthday
we no longer feel excited about the age
(coz old le)
however
we treasure our health and wealth alot more
and definitely the people around us
friendship and kinship
loads of them!
i hope to spend precious time with everyone
seeing and talking to my true friends and relatives
just makes me feel happy!
with my backache working me out a whole lot this new year
and sitting/standing is equally pressurising on me
i feel really dreaded and old.
i need to take care of myself alot more..
will be visiting W's family tonight..
that is another looooooong story.. well well..
whatever it is,
i hope all friends will HUAT are for the remaining 12 days of LNY
and also happy and prosperous for the remaining of the Niu Year!

:: LNY09 * god of fortune talked to me ::

Was at the junction near fu lu shou complex when i met cai Shen ye which wished me good luck. He also gave me some words of advise. But on the whole, its a rather good year for me in terms of health and wealth, with probably good progress in career. But.. I'm not having a career now.. How huh.. Hmm.. Really have to start working? Well.. Anyway.. Huat ah.. Shall go play a little on 4D with the number he offered.. Pop by this place when u are free, and receive some good luck and words of advise from this auspicious figure.
*sorry that the picture is in wrong direction due to technical error.*
:: LNY09 * Reunion 210109 ::
mainly a gathering of the aunties and just three of my cousins
and my grandmother
who is really old
and despite me having due respect for her
i feel sad when the once active lady
has turned into a relatively immobile matriach figure.
what's more special
was meeting a cousin of mine
which i did not quite come into contact with in a loooong time
talked quite a bit with him
while he shared with me pictures he took on a recent vacation
on Facebook, no less.
i felt nice.
seriously
because it has never quite occured to me that i'll meet him anytime soon
but well
we bonded quite well during the one hour or so
he's really friendly
i feel guilty for being shy all these years
if not i would have had a great relationship with my cousins
on tt part
i am quite jealous whn i see my cousins or other people's cousins
being to amicable
enjoying fantastic relationships.
well
it was a nice time i had earlier.
on another note
i seriously look forward to the celebrations next week
like my birthday party
which is a celebration of friendship
the LNY days for me is the only opportunity for a celebration of kinship
and as a sideline to that
i've been treated quite well in the LNY celebratory with YES 933..
haha.. i won quite a few prizes through on air contests in the past two week
a good indication that the new year would be a positive and prosperous one!
Huat ah!

:: for an auspicious year ::

Don't travel unnecessarily, especially to earthquake prone areas. Thats quoted from the 8 days article, supposed advice from Master Jet Lee, a feng shui master. The year is earthly, so go for brighter colours, avoiding earth tones like yellow brown and red. Buy a house if you can afford. And Hang on tightly to your jobs. nose is one's wealth and health palace, treasure it. And the one part which makes me and W all excited: Get married! but only if you're a Tiger or Dragon! It's an auspicious year to tie the knot for tigers and dragons. For other rights, get married at your own risk. Erm.. Does unions count? Lol. Hope it really turns out good. I'm tiger and he's a dragon.. ;)

:: random notes.. ::
so its bye bye to tt four letters till next year.. boo!
anyway
i'm really looking forward to LNY's arrival
its juz slightly more than a week away
i shall TRY to scrimp and save and not eat so much until Chu 1 arrives..
(or maybe until reunion dinner)
btw, i plan to not cut my hair this new year
i refuse to pay the extra $5 / 10% salons charge as "surcharge" for new year due to "peak period"
its just nonsense..
Zen (my stylist) will just have to wait a little longer till he next sees me..
instead
i bought a new fedora hat from topman.. so this year i'll for for a snazzy spring/summer look
for LNY..
on most days i'm out visiting,
it will be the same combination of clothes,
just tt the tee shirts (which are all of the same design n cutting)
are of different colours..
haha.. not much surprises.. well.. when one gets older
he doesn't really look forward to YET ANOTHER new year
coz it simply means age is catching up. right!
for now,
i've really been slacking for the past three weeks..
i did try to clean my room up a little each day
but its still in a mess overall
i promised not to go out so often and buy too many things
but i think my credit card have been wokring out extra hard..
and that's bad, coz when the bills arrive.. wahahaha!!
my options are still pretty open for further studies
actually.. VERY open
i can't make up my mind
and what i can say is,
friends.. i kinda noe you all care.
but please help me by not offering comments
i'm rather tired of justifying myself to you all
then after that feel a sense of guilt like my choice is wrong..
it feels bad.. and uncomfortable..
so.. well.. my mind is kinda made up to go for whatever poly course.
any degree/diploma is useful (never useless)
and what i'm more looking forward to is the experience i'll get at the institution.
well.. that's all for now.. will update more when new year arrives..
to show u all my newest update of my obscene collection of new clothes..
muahahaha!

:: sea of red ::

In an unbelievably auntie move for to soon to wed Miloboi here, tis year, i have started collecting red packets, the empty ones, from various banks and malls, shops and restaurants. Yup. Just in case i do need to give red packets anytime soon.. Btw, whats the market rate now for red packets given by a young 22 year old 'auntie' this year? Haha.. Want ang bao? 记得在新年期间向我拜年,谁知道,可能我已结了婚,开始大派红包了呢.

:: for active kids! ::

W got me this after hearing about it from T. And we are now happily using this after our swims, gym, and dragon boat trainings. Its really good coz it smells nice, is gentle on skin, and doesn't make us kids tear.. Haha.. Most importantly, it rids chlorine smells completely! The orangy scent makes us smell good after exercise and swims. Great! Perfect for active kids!

:: looking backwards and relishing ::
a million thoughts have been running across my mind every second since last monday.
i kinda know life odd to go on.
but a future awaits.
I take it as a time check, lifetime check.
Have I chosen the wrong paths at certain intersections in life?
I think so.
Looking back, and many "what ifs" surface.
Now, I shall make a decision (not exactly at this moment, but at this phase of life)
a decision that will make me HAPPY.
a decision that I can be proud of.
I am seriously considering going back to the O Levels teaching track which I once declined
hopefully they will consider and take me back...
and even to a poly to pursue my dream course (something to do with media)
or even to a private university/ professional cert course
and pursue an award which I have keen interest in.
If I can find a good and stable job, why not?
see
chances are everywhere actually
just that at different times
they appear different to you
sometimes not catching your attention
at other times, its just irrelevant.
I hope to just let it be
not let anything hinder my passion
as I choose the route to go..
(unlike what Darius thinks, to me, I hope, age is not a factor..)
I just hope to make up my mind soon
and sincerely hope all doors really open for me..
(keeps my fingers crossed,
i hope you, my friend, will pray hard for me too)

:: c-jade 明火白粥 ::

If you never tried the plain porridge before, its never too late. Its my favourite must have. $2 for a bowl of flavourful porridge, although plain looking, but within, it packs a punch. Its not overwhelmingly salty, but the hints of seasoning makes it irresistable. The most obvious being the smell and taste of dried scallop. Ooh! It taste great even on its own. Not just for the sick..

:: Big Christmas Holiday! ::
said that it would be a great Christmas,
I had no idea it would be this big.
Merry Christmas to all my friends!
May your Christmas be as wonderful as mine!
:: retrospective ::
we look at in reminisent of the better days we had
and praying for the year to come to be better
filled with more merry moments
and less disasters, natural or not.
But Isaac is basically a simple person
who doesn't hope for much
just that he can be happy without much worries.
I really enjoy giving
it doesn't make me feel like a saint
but i just like to prepare some love
and share with my friends.
After a collection of Absolutmilo sweets tubs and photo frames
Absolutmilo CDs and poetry books.
Absolutmilo chocolate shot glasses.
This Christmas,
friends whom i meet this week have been or will be greeted with the newest
Absolutmilo champagne class / red wine bubble.
The newest in the Absolutmilo collection.
As much as i'm looking forward to next year
when i'm going to be much older (21 seems just yesterday while 23 has slowly crept up)
i'm looking forward to a nicer custom made gift to share with friends
to let you always know
that I am by your side
accompanying you whenever you are down and out
or when you just feel flat.
I want to be all around you
to provide you warmth.
But troubles will be the only constant
thus we should face it when it comes.
feel blessed you have friends.
and they are the ones you need to cope with anything.
(just like as much as i don't subscribe to someone's idea of a union,
but i still pretty much want to share my happiness with all.
such dilemma..)

:: egotism ::
The Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty was a national hero for his success as both a statesman and military leader.
But despite his fame, power, and wealth, he considered himself a humble and devout Buddhist.
Often he visited his favorite Zen master to study under him, and they seemed to get along very well.
The fact that he was prime minister apparently had no effect on their relationship,
Which seemed to be simply one of a revered master and respectful student.
One day, during his usual visit, the Prime Minister asked the master,
"Your Reverence, what is egotism according to Buddhism?"
The master's face turned red, and in a very condescending and insulting tone of voice, he shot back,
"What kind of stupid question is that!?"
This unexpected response so shocked the Prime Minister that he became sullen and angry.
The Zen master then smiled and said,
"THIS, Your Excellency, is egotism."

:: Ip Man ::
At the cinema last evening, W pointed to the electronic display outside one of the halls and exclaimed that he wanted to watch that movie. T scratched his head and asked, “IP Man? What’s that show about? Some tech show? Tracking criminals through IP addresses?”
We looked at him in amusement. “It’s a Chinese show lah! Not Eye Pee Man. It’s Yip Mun.”

:: knowing ::

I love this man. For whatever there is to love. And knowing that we are on the way.. To paving a future. Hope you understand. If you don't, too bad. Maybe you aren't that close a friends. No more hints. I've decided to give the biggest hint le. Well, no. Its an expose. U don't get it? You are an idiot. You feel awry? Too bad. You are my friend? Then give us your blessings.
:: old flame . new love . future ::
seeking for things to take out for sale at a charitable sale yesterday
when W came across a pair of alphabetical bears
with W and B on it.
as well as a bottle of origami stars
painstakingly jottled with love messages and then folded


wow..
that is so sweet and diabetic, ain't it
well
it belonged to a past relationship of his
a rather looong relationship
he told me, 6 years
and till now
after reading a few of the love messages
he feels each of them.
they shared a love which was unique
and let me to see a tender side of him
for a strong and grown muscular man
to have a love affair like that
is quite unbelievable.
it makes me cherish him more
and he to me too.
it is just memories, and will be
to be kept in an important place in his heart.
now, he says, he has me
and there's no need to be jealous.
for past can never mix with present
and i'm, but his future.
(i'm getting rather diabetic now..)
he told me yesterday too:
"I looked at these. I realised how much I loved B.
And how much I still love B."
he packed it up
and returned these to B at the club today when they met
and right after
in front of a group of friends
popped the question, once again, to me.
i felt it was right
and so, "yes"
:: W ::
a nice union to celebrate and commemorate our love
and i swear i wasn't on a sugar high/ sex pills/dead drunk
to finally agree to the idea (or proposal)
of the "wedding" or "marriage"
you see
due to the unconventional relationship we are having
the "normal terms" just don't quite apply to us
however
we are but two normal man
who are, really, in love.
the reasons are aplenty
but yes, we are going into it
hopefully
with predictable outcomes...
(though at this point, the happiness has just started sinking in, but no real concrete plans has been set, yet.)
we have been together for about 10 months now
not a really short period of time
but as compared to many more
it is not that long either
but he always say
its the love that's important
and age is not a factor
you might think its childish
and just some fantasy
but to me,
this wildest dream
IS taking shape.
i would prefer just a simple ceremony
but he has differing views
not too elaborate
but not too simple too
he is a man with stature
and adored/fantasized by many
to him, it is an announcement
he's taken, keep out!
while to me, its just a nice sweet way of him promising me
to be there...
i want just a ceremony
he wants a dinner
at a nice friend's place for me
at a church, then a club, for him
just a few common friends for me
all our friends and families must be informed, for him
a quiet affair for me
a lifetime effort no less from him.
we have differing viewpoints on matters in life
but we share a special chemistry
which just churns out much more sparkles each day
probably that's what you will label as
love.

:: day at museum - moving chandeliers ::

The chandeliers are moving in like pendulums. Quite a sight to behold. Very interesting and pretty as well. I visited the National Museum yesterday, since i think i shud not waste my holidays slacking at home. Went to view 2 exhibitions which was temporary, Voom portraits and Doubleness. Voom portraits are a collection of life videos which if you never notice would be a portrait, but the are live movements and with the music accompaniments, tells of individual stories. Captivating. While doubleness is a collection of photographs and videos by chang chien chi, a taiwanese photog. Three thematic collections can be found, one about asian men going to vietnam for brokered marriages, another about the mental patients chained together at a healing centre in taiwan called Long Fa Tang. A third about a chinese men who go to new york illegally to work and are separated from their loved ones. Touching, moving, each with a unique story to tell. Each picture really tells a thousand words. I would definitely go back to the museum soon to explore more. Any one keen to join me in my next trip?
