At the 11th hour


Grubbles about office work today.


Another slack day. What to do when they don't bother giving you a post, an upperstudy(some1 who teaches you the strings), a seat, a desk, or proper assignments? Went for dispatch, had lunch alone. Came back, tried to do some html with my blog, got ranted for being in the wrong place, being too free.."PLAYING GAMES" Faggass morons being my superiors, I can't deny that accusation anymore. Why do stupid people do stupid things like imposing double standards? (Go touch that tree. Hey, why the hell you touching the tree? See me later) Get my point? Have to live my life around idiots like that..pretty saddens my day. (Now, maturity doesn't come with age, it comes with logical reasoning. Those gays are over 40, 50? Aunties and Uncles..) Anyway, i'll put that behind me for now.

Anyway, here's a little book introduction

"This is a nice book, I think it's great for both Christians and NonChristians. It addresses a crucial question everyone is asking. "What on earth am I here for?" Somewhere between the lines, the book addresses the fact that we're are not here by accident, we're not accidentally made. We're here for a purpose, not of our own. I've always pondered upon this question, felt a great chasm of emptiness. Sigh, Im still in the process of reading (It's designed to be read once a day for 40days), I'd suggest you guys either borrow it from me or buy one."

- Jonathan

Oh and today, I brought up the idea of me wanted to own a digital camera. Heh, my hidden talent..or not so hidden. Anyone noticed I was the cameraman in Boy's Brigade? Anyway, was researching on which digital camera to buy. Holy, what a vast variety to choose from. Of course, a guy like me shan't buy out of budget, nor of usage. Then, i called my sister for advice. She mentioned Nikon CoolPix 3700, and they had it on offer for $399, with tripod, 256 mem card n etc. Unfortunate thing was, today was the last day of the promotion. I was almost brought to buying on impulse. Had to call my sister to pay first and all. However..things didn't turn out quite right, she says she'll try again tomorrow..Oh well. What luck eh?

A bit lazy to add a daily quote today. And since today was a bad day, no daily quotes. Justifiable.

Sunday Blues

I hate Sunday Blues!!
Sigh, I love weekends but I dread Sundays. It marks the end of the weekend, the beginning of a new week. Hell I wouldn't have bothered if im not enlisted in the Army. The Army is dreadfully boring, with little meaning whatsoever. I just hope that blogging keeps my once active mind from a permanent shutdown. Well, speaking of Sunday Blues, don't people have it? The detestable feeling of meaningless of life, having nothing to do but to stay at home and, well continue with meaningless things, the dread of returning to work? I hate it@
Today, as any other Sundays, I didn't go to church. I wonder why. My spiritual life has been an all time low since i entered JC..wished I was the same innocent boy I was when I was 3, free of the knowledge of sin. I AM A SINNER. I KNOW THAT. But i can't HELP MYSELF. I don't mind dying, Life is a dread.. I could die to stop sinning, and die for someone else in that process. Why don't people think what happens after they die? Only fools make merry on Earth and not think about death, since death is something appointed to ALL men... then we all should spend this life thinking about where we gonna spend our eternity.
God SAVE ME!
- Btw I do hope more people read my blog, those whom would like to understand me better. Im a quiet guy but a man of words, in that sense, someone who expresses his feelings better with words, with the limited vocabulary I accidentally picked up.

He asks nothing but death, and you desire nothing but life. How can you put up to Him a prayer for his grace, with a restriction that He shall only send it by a channel demanding no sacrifice on your part but ministering to the gratification of your carnal pride?

Saturday Night Fever..Oopmh!

Just another saturday..

Bah. Only Jeremy, Daniel and Russell, along with me went out today. As usual, we wanted to TRAIN our pool l33tness. I was gonna reach late. We were supposed to meet at 1.00 at bedok, but i'd reach there in 1.15 as russell thought. As usual, russell took that excuse to be late and asked daniel to meet at 130 without telling me. They arrived at 1.38(so they were late in the end - i demand a coffee bread) So we went to Katong to cut daniel's hair(why cut when it's so short..doesn't look different).

Hmm..what did we have for lunch? Oh yeah, I had Korean BBQ beef set - $6.50, i thought the price was a little pricey for something so little in quantity. Had coffee bread - Oh, we're all so addicted to it. Come to think of it, $1.20 for a meagre piece of bread is an extreme mark up..lol.

Then, on to pool practice. As usual, the starting few rounds were downright slow..we couldn't make it below 7mins...As usual Russell uses his 255 luck to pawn us, especially Daniel, somehow. Daniel pawns Jeremy, and Jeremy pawns me.! not fair.. Bah i hate breaking when im against jeremy. Sucks. He's always on a 2 - 4 ball lead after that..SOBS. (yeah im not too happy losing so many times!) Anyway, near the end about something close to 8pm (think we played 4, 5 hours...the bill came up to..28bucks?!), we had final 2 on 2s. All because Russell and Jeremy were gonna lose (foul ball and we left black), they committed Sepekku by hitting the black ball in FOR US, withholding our honour of WINNING! Bah - rematch!!!..Haha.

  • I derived a theory - Daniel coined it The Jonathan's Theory. My theory was - if a ball in a pool table were to have a horizontal and vertical components of velocity, both having a non zero value, then eventually it will enter a hole (assuming completely elastic collision and frictionless environment)

Bah, I wanna finish this post by 12.00 ..because i need to post a daily quote for saturday..wahaha..So i think i'll end here! Ja ne!

A Tribute to Beautiful Girls


Hurrah for pretty eye-candies

Today is as good as it gets! Had unit anniversary at Down Town East. Well.. we had a nice breakfast for a start, then headed down to the bowling alley....had a bowling tournament. Yes. TOURNAMENT. Like wtf? Last time I bowled at our chalet, I was literally throwing money into the drain! Almost had a single digit score too! Wow. I was apprehensive of course..But I tried my best, and managed a 99 in the first round. Surprisingly, our team won the tourny and I got a trophy.wow.

Well..Then we went for an 8 course lunch, with a very LAME MC. The only thing that brightened my day were the waitresses. Ooooo.. They are beautiful beyond my ability to describe.!

  • They were typical Chinese Japanese looking, thin diamond eyes, sharp small nose, thin sweet lips..Perfect facial structure, sharp chin.
  • Their hair tied up into a ponytail, dyed blonde..Hair hanging down at the front, and cat feelers too.
  • White semi transparent top.black inside* Opps..black skirt. Demure looking! With a tinge of ah lian look. Yummy. Pity..No pic.
  • Perfect height, 160+. Definitely nice slim figure..

Enough said, they are HOT...! If only....haha. Well, this post today goes out to all the pretty girls out there, treasure your beauty..But don't let it get to your head :P

Sigh..Have to go hotel later to help out.. But I'd predict I'll have a diarrhoea in just about 15mins time..so .. :p


Fuming at the first hour of the day

*Brwwaaah*

Can't help NOT pulling my hair apart. I spent the entire day doing my blog, literally, since 9am yesterday(technically since now it is 12:08 am).

May someone help me!?!?!
Problems i screwed up with:
  • Everytime was FINE until i tried to add a counter. Then my background picture disapppeared and i had to..replace the entire html text with a fresh one.. of course, saving all my links n stuff like that.
  • Then I realised in the posts, that all the font sizes were our of proportion. DAMN
  • So i tried adjusting. the best i could get is this, though this was far from the original.
  • Firstly, the DATE STAMP can't be adjusted seperately with the text body. HOW? zz.
    When I change the font size, both are affected. DATE STAMP is supposed to be WAY BIGGER..so wtf?
  • One more thing i noticed was that i could not indent after every paragraph..damn this really pisses me off...right into the next day!!

Home and NOT alone..

WOW what a rare occasion eh? My bro's at home and he's cutting his hair. Sigh he looked like me, so ragged and fragile when I kept my hair long..Well somewhat long as compared to the hair cut I had 10days before going to NS to get it SHAVED! Did you guys see? Didn't it look kinda cool? Compared to the dull hairstyle I kept..Never realised I looked like shit till then..Or maybe I still do?

On my way home to board 159, people were crowding at the bus entrance and an old uncle was standing at the steps, refusing to alight the bus. He was shooing people to one side, saying some nasty things you won't wanna know.. And when people cleared for him, I almost laughed out loud..Plus that old man turned around n starting scolding someone rofl.. Saying in Chinese " Zhe li ke yi shang ye ki yi xia de hor! nian qing ren ....." Which translates into, " This place can go up can go down one!
Young people blablabla...." And started pointing , even after the bus left. OMG..Hilarious public clown..


Anyway, I'd test post this, coz my friend has problems with posting. She says that there is no paragraphing. I wonder how this would turn out to be? HaH!

The horror of an office.

The dread of waking up in the wee hours of the morning, IE, 6.30am. I've always wondered how could people wake up so early? I never could wake myself up. Bah I must be suffering from both insomnia and 'DI'somnia. Nevertheless, yet another day that I have to crawl out of bed, force myself to look at the nearly bald figure in front of the mirror..and do those stuff(yeah you know those stuff, don't you.)

Thus the boring day begins again, having no chair to sit at times, I have to sit in a dustbin. The guy beside me is doing it now too :P . Bosses here are idiotic as usual, not all, not the doctors certainly.
Why do people work?
-money
-career
-passion
-NS liability ( thats me!)

I'll probably not blog so early in the morning next time..its just becoz im BORED. Spelt: "B" "O" "R" "E" "D".
Then again, what's there to blog about the day, when it has just begun? O well i'll blog again tonite..sigh..another 8 more hours of doing nothing to endure..

First Pinup for the New Year!

Omg! Here comes the lagger!

30th October 2004 - Sunday
First things first. I'd like to do a little backtracking..all the way back to 30/10/04. This post is to honour God's special plan. Ok here shows my folly:
During my A levels, i wrote every single day beside the examination entries, so that i could remember easily.


And so on this very sunday, russell, jeremy, me and whoelse? decided to go for a swim. I spent my day relaxing, knowing i had Monday to study for my chem paper3. Russell however, was being mocked by me every moment for having maths paper the very next day.
So with ease, I spent my entire day, swadding around the pool, eating, chatting..

Reached home at 11pm.
Had this mysterious sms saying "Good luck for your paper tomorrow"
"What paper? I don't have any paper tml..but thx anyway"
"Oh you don't take chem? okok nvm"
- I went white in the face and decided to check it out.. and then...
- OMG! I realised that i had written the day beside the exam entry saying Tuesday ( when it was supposed to be Monday) Comon it was at 11pm, i had spent the entire day merry making, left my studying to do on Monday..wouldn't anyone panic?
"OMG! I HAVE chem p3 tmr! OMGOMG so late already!!zz Thx man you saved my ass big time"
"Yea i guess i saved ur ass big time"
"Erm..so who are you?"
"Don't bother you don't know me"
"Can't be la..tell me leh i need to treat you man.."
"Nah even if i want the treat im some where far away and locked up"
"er..yan yan zhe zhe? (my sis in china, far away , locked up? perhaps)
"Yeah"

The thing is, there was nothing to substantiate that it was my sister, furthermore she didn't seem to know about the incident, what more that i have a paper the next time, AND that i didnt KNOW i had a paper. This would apply to anyone, anyway.

It may seem hard to convince people how this, at least to me, is not coincidence..more like God's plan at hand. Note the serious repercussions if i wouldn't have turned up. Plus, the paper wasn't that difficult! Phew..now to await my results.
