    Bye bye 2006
    Sunday, December 31, 20061:25:00 PM 0 commento
    For 2006 I said I wanna...
    1. to lose weight
    2. to save money
    3. to travel at least once a year by plane
    4. to be with my baby for life

    Let's just scrap the idea of forming my 2007 resolution altogether, how does that sound? Obviously you and I both know I can't resolve my resolutions EVER! SO why bother right?

    Here is what I resolve for the coming year... for the heck of it!

    I will start levitating again
    &
    I will stop kissing strangers less often

    source: http://www.ryumaou.com/cgi-bin/resolution.cgi

    Actually, I really wanna pick up a new skill for 2007. I would really like to learn how to play guitar. Maybe learn a little salsa? Baking? Hmm... There you go! My 2007 resolution is to pick up a new skill!

    How about yours?

    Borat sucks... NOT!
    Friday, December 29, 200612:45:00 AM 0 commento
    Just came back from watching Borat. It opens today... technically, yesterday since I'm blogging after midnight... and I didn't hesitate to drag my baby after his jamming session to the nearest cinema. He was skeptical at first but came out fully converted, by yours truly. I'd say go catch it. If you like Ali G or political humor, this movie is for you!

    Also for the first time ever, I made myself useful and captured clips of my baby's sneak peak performance for New Year's Eve performance at Vintage (Your Authentic Rock Bar).

    Switchfoot - Meant To Live


    Seether - Hang On


    Alter Bridge - Open Your Eyes


    INXS - Pretty Vegas


    Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Soul To Squeeze


    ... and I ran out of memory card space *LOL*

    Pre-Christmas
    Tuesday, December 26, 200610:40:00 PM 0 commento
    [edit]Just to let you guys know I'm having a supder duper long weekend. I'm on MC for tuesday and wednesday and am clearing my leave on thursday and friday. Dun be hatin'![/edit]

    Stuff happened before christmas and I've neglected to update about it. Why? Cos' its like a brand new habit I picked up from some people in my blogroll. Its contagious! Its deadly! Run people run!!

    There's one Sunday, Fahmy and I met up and picked up the courage to try the all new junk food eateries, Superdogs. Not as super as I had thought it would have been in my head, but its alright. Chilli cheese dogs... nay!


    And then this super couple met up again on another weekend, the eve of xmas eve, and end up in a place we both had enjoyed, a year ago with a few others who had just explored it for the first time. #1 Nite Stand had the best live band I've seen, Six In The City, but the crowd wasn't too favorable. So we left only to find ourselves in Ministry of Sound... sheesh. Sorry, no photos from in there, too lazy!


    Still not quite gotten rid of my hangover, I flagged a cab and off we go to Aisha's place to celebrate her daughter's birthday. A house full of kids... good times!


    Anyways, here's some graphics containing stuff I've gotten during the festive season.








    Hmmm... that means I still owe them presents, YIKES! I dedicate this song to them then... HAHA! Hey, Xmas song ok! Good one also, kinda appropriate if you read the lyrics below *LOL*... enjoy! And a belated MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

    Oi! Oi!

    Haji was a punk just like any other boy
    And he never had no trouble until he started up his Oi band,
    safe in the garage or singing in the tub.
    Till Haji went to far and he plugged in at the pub

    Twas a cold Christmas eve when Trevor and the skins
    popped in for a pint and to nick a bag of crisps
    Trevor liked the music but not the Unity
    He unwound Haji's turban and knocked him to his knees

    If god came down on Christmas Day
    I know exactly what he'd say
    He'd say "Oi to the punks and Oi to the skins-
    but Oi to the world and everybody wins!"

    Haji was a bloody mess, he ran out thru the crowd
    he said "we'll meet again we are bloody yet unbowed"
    Trevor called his bluff and told him where to meet
    Christmas day on the roof down at 20 Oxford street

    If god came down on Christmas Day
    I know exactly what he'd say
    He'd say "Oi to the punks and Oi to the skins-
    but Oi to the world and everybody wins!"

    On the roof with the nun chucks Trevor broke a lot of bones
    But Haji had a sword like that guy on Indiana Jones

    Police sirens wailing, a bloody dying man,
    Haji was alone and abandoned by his band
    Trevor was there fading and still so full of hate
    when the skins left him there and went down the fire escape
    Oi Oi

    Then then Haji saw the north star shining more then ever
    So he made a tourniquet from his turban saving Trevor
    the repelled down the roof with the rest of the turban
    and went back to the pub where they bought each other bourbon

    If god came down on Christmas Day
    I know exactly what he'd say
    He'd say "Oi to the punks and Oi to the skins-
    but Oi to the world and everybody wins!"

    Oi Oi

    A whole lotta proper updates
    Wednesday, December 13, 200612:58:00 PM 0 commento
    There's this one day Fahmy and I met on a weekend to spend time together at Vivocity and everywhere else around that area. We had too much fun that the idea of waiting for our dinner to arrive is just too much of precious time to waste just sitting there and wondering when will the plates be delivered to your table.


    A few days later, on night, on my off day, Clifford invited me to some party at MOS. I think it had something to do with MTV and some watches. I should really start disciplining myself to update soon enuff before I forget the details.


    Then over the weekend I met up wit my long-time-no-see auntie Naura *hehehe*. She has a new toy and she ain't afraid to show it off. Look at the size of that thang!!But than that monster toy of hers' battery went kapoot within minutes after we started playing with it. Its a very complicated toy to play with in my opinion but she seems to know what she's doing.

    We also raid the flea market nearby and got some good buys. Bags mostly, good price for a second hand product. That auntie of mine nabbed like FIVE at one go while I only managed to land my heart for two. Must shop there again... and again... and again. Addicted I am now, thanks to that auntie!

    Another good day after work, we headed towards the east for a scrumptious dinner in honor of Clifford and Carol's old aged day. Haha... I love celebrating other people's birthday. Its soooo much more fun than celebrating your own.


    The day after I met up with the one and only idiot cousin of mine for he owes me 1 out of many dinner treats and to the changi airport we go for my well deserved Popeyes!


    Last night I went for the loooong awaited swim with Hazel and boy did that scare the shit outta ma muscles! We did 20laps which I had not done for a very long time and it was my first time attempting it with Hazel. Twas fun... Twas good... Twas tummy rumbling. So off to McDonalds we go! Bitching session commenced at 2145h and went on till almost 0000h. Twas fun... Twas informative... Twas fierce!

    As usual, click the photos to view the rest.

    *Shocked*
    Sunday, December 03, 20065:18:00 AM 1 commento
    I just reached the scariest point of my life. My grandma was seriously ill this morning, like 12.15am, right after I had my shower. I thought she was snoring but it was too godamn loud to be a snore. When I checked on her, she had her eyes open and making weird noises as if trying to tell me something. At one point she started wailing out loud. I was shivering as I called the ambulance. And yes, they took too freaking long to react to the phone call and took 20mins to reach my house. I kept running in and out of the house making sure the lift is constantly on ground floor at the same time, running in and out of my grandma's room making sure she's ok. It was too scary... I thought I'm gonna lose her. Funny thing, I felt relief when she didn't stop making those noises. When she got quiet I kept looking at her making sure she's still there. Her eyes were open, looking at me, I felt her pain.

    I just came home from the hospital. She's conscious now. Turns out her sugar level drop to a very dangerous level. Worse part was my aunt kept saying stuff like what if I wasn't home, what if I had already gone to sleep and couldn't hear her. Like HELLO! Making me feel guilty would not make her better! She's under constant observation right now. I have to thank The Almighty for being there for her and to give me the strength to react. I could have done worse than that, you know!

    When she comes back, I'm soooooo gonna start feeding her with lotsa sweets, ice-cream and whatnots. Gosh... I'm so glad I got to pen this down. I had no one to confide with about my fears earlier... I think I can sleep in peace.
