Another one bites the dust..
Time : 0725hrs
FV3787 broke down along Tampines Ave 10, middle lane..
Managed to free wheel myself to the road side.. Something is wrong with my gearbox, shall not elaborate further.. Being stranded alone on the road side is not an ideal situation.. You have the eyes of Tampines Ave 10 road users casted on you.. Freezing in the drizzle, i was cursing the 'eyes'.. Occasionally you have motorists or drivers who will slow down to a near standstill.. No not to offer assistance but to take note of ya plate number.. More annoyingly, you'll come across typical mats n bengs riders who will blow their throttle at u as they pass by.. And everytime a bus passes by, u'll feel like an exhibit.. Slowly passing by you, uncountable pairs of eyes(passengers) will look down at you.. Been to the zoo? I feel like the panda behind glass..
Rode ma bro's bike today, phantom.. I'm like a circus bear balancing on 2 wheels.. Kinda awkward riding his bike..
Missed the first half of school due to the breakdown.. The lesson after lunch, lasted for only 33mins.. Teacher's meeting.. Wasted trip?

She bangs.. She bangs..
Had a short personal conversation with Miss Tham after Comm Skills.. At the receiving end, i do not know how to react to what she said.. It's kinda intriguing when a teacher takes great concern on ya personal life.. No no.. I'm not saying it's bad.. I appreciate it very much.. She amaze me at times.. 4 years is a long time but she remembers every single dated detail about me.. She recalls past events as though it just happened a week ago.. To the extend that she remembers who i was dating.. EEK! Nevertheless, Ite TP Part II.. There's so many people that i have to prove wrong and much more for me to achieve.. It helps to have her on my side.. Trigger happy gattling gun, she fires up loads of advices for me..
In our short lil convo.. She asked about my well being.. She must have done some checking on my progress in school.. Simply because she knows that i'm doing better now.. The next question caught me offguard.. Like a psychic, she can read my mind.. She knows i am looking for a job to earn extra income after my schooling hours..
A tournament was held in our school premises, soccer(girls).. First time i've seen a population of girls in ite tp.. Female of our species are limited here..
Any1 interested to watch a drama entitled 'My Fair Lady' at NUS Cultural Hall this Sunday 3 OCT 2.45pm.. 2 tics up for grabs.. FOC..

Cranberries - When You Are Gone
Reunited with my keyboard again..
Total computer domination by my bro for the past 4 days/nights..
Paint - Yet another new coating of paint in the living room. The old coat of pink paint is only a week old. Ol lady boss Mom getting fickle minded on the choice of colours..
Eggs - This i gotta mention. Finally i have eggs again in the freezer. 24 of em to be precise, each costing 35cents. Yes it's those bland and small Australian eggs. I left out EX! Nevertheless, it has been weeks since i last had eggs.
I'm gonna hv an egg in every meal! EGG-CELLENT!
Received shocking news early this morning frm Salihin. Someone who i've longed to meet passed away. I remember him as a humble and laid back person. Highly respected among his peers. Schoolmates, we used to walk together for our friday prayers. Condolences to his family and friends. We've bid goodbye to a great person, just temporarily till we get reunited again. Miss ya, Late Baharin..

I'm a fish..
Tedious week on the legs.. Soccer, 2.4km run, basketball.. Strain and stiff lower extrimities.. Set aside a few hours earlier in the water.. Destination Wild Wild Wet.. For those of u who havent been there, u are not missing out on anything.. Fork out ya cash elsewhere.. However it was time well spent for me.. Needed the break badly.. I love to be in water.. Had company, my bedmate in camp for 2 years Sadiq.. He paired up with his lovely beau.. Hannah banana tag along with me.. Splashing time.. Bumped in2 a number of familiar faces there.. Old colleagues, Escape Theme Park.. HalUuu history..
I need a reservation to use my comp nowadays.. Big ol bro is suffering from gaming addiction.. I'll doubt i getta update my blog frequently..
Alhamdulillah.. Academically i am coping very well.. Words of praises coming frm every teaching staffs.. Motivation factor.. Insyaallah, i'll try to keep it this way.. However i feel bad when comparisons are made.. Subject staffs, they meant well always.. But i am uncomfortable when they use me as an example for others to follow.. Especially when it is on a frequent basis.. Yes i like to help others in every way.. But not by overdoing it.. Sham here Sham there Sham everywhere.. Pls, full stop on that.. I rather be low and remain low..
Happy 24th Birthday Dee Quokka..

Don't look back in anger..
Electrical Installation Practical Test
The ordeal lasted almost 4 hours. Vigorous and taxing. One hand equipped with my trusty testpan, the other used as a hand wiper for my rolling drops of perspiration. Wirings of blue, black, green and yellow are a colourful mess on the working board. The highly anticipated afternoon downpour did little to help with the atmosphere in the workshop, stuffy. Throughout the intense 4 hours, cant help but think about Jas opposite my workboard. Jas, the sole surviving girl in my class. Lack of physique is slowing her way way behind the rest. Occasionally approach her to lend a helping hand. Today marks the return of Muhsin from his bike suspension. A good sign of things to come? For once he's early for school.
Music Cravings
I miss the old brit bands. Digged into my stuffz for ol albums.. Oasis, Supergrass, Suede, Blur.. Brit rocks!

Fantasista
Holidays over, back to sch..
Late night revision (yesterday) drowned with mugs of milo was in vain.. 0813am, Miss Ong broke the news - Transistor test postponed for a week..
Lack of sleep took its toll on me.. Absent minded, lotsa stuffs have been slipping off my mind lately.. Sadly, on a frequent basis.. Today, brought the wrong book, left my assignment at home.. Top of that, i left home w/o my helmet.. YES! A routine can be forgotten..
Lunchy time, rushed back home to get my assignment.. Dropped by 7-11, influx of stinky secondary school students.. Padi my bills.. Enroute back to school.. As if my day couldnt get worse.. Crossed path with 2 traffic police.. Journey halted by them, inspection.. Cursing my "perfect bad day".. Face to face - with the officer.. HECK! One familiar face.. Introducing, Corporal Razali.. My ol school mate.. Pheeww, a lucky getaway..
Music Added : Dragonash - Fantasista..

Bozo the clown
Painted a wall in my living room pink. A question mark hangs over the choice of colour. It was a decision made from the ladyboss, mom. What makes it more odd is that, only a single wall is painted pink? Strange? Weird? Well that's my mom. She hv other colours in mind for other walls in the living room. Clown house in the making. Syawal is just months away. Drop by my house, with ya red clown nose.
18th Sept - Happy 18th Birthday Syuhaidah.. (It's in ya fav colour)

Tearjerky Version 3.0
Site revamped, entitled Gadgets.. Had this layout in mind for sometime but time prohibits turning ideas into reality.. Pardon the colours for now, uncertainty still hangs over the choice of a suitable colour theme.. Suggestions any1?
Thanking my lucky stars as my team of affection Man Utd braced through a match against Lyon.. A double frm Ruud sealed a point for the visiting Red Devils after going 2 goals down in the first half.
*Gotta Be Home Thursday*
Singapore Idols - Wildcard Special.. Reenie dunch u miss this one as well yuh yuh! Oooo Bai, i knw u'll be watching..
A few words for a depressed soul - Shit happens. Reality is never kind. You'll get through this rough period Hetty.
To my 10 mins walk away neighbour, have a safe trip to Bangkok Desiree.. You'll love shopping there..

The day i became Mojo Jojo..
I'm loving this sch break.. Loving it too much.. Havent been productive academically for the first three days..
*How To Wake Someone Up For Dummies Guide*
Tip Of The Day - Bring in an excavator, a few 3 tonners and dozen of men drilling holes into the ground.
I didn't planned to wake up at 0730hrs.. It was uncalled for.. It's my school break, to be up that early is the last thing on my mind.. School holidays = late nights.. I barely slept for more than 4 hours? Look out my window, 5 metres away - 3 towering buildings, condominium in construction.. I think i saw what i thought was a swimming pool in the making? Oooo splendid.. But WHY THE HECK must they dig it this early? A word frequently used by the wise chimp Mojo Jojo, *CURSES*..

The times we've spent together, i'll cherished it.. Memories are the only treasures i have.. You people have been a great companion for the past 10 years.. Thank u, thank u so so much.. Monday nights will never be the same again.. Thank you Ross, Chandler, Joey, Monica, Rachel and Phoebe.. *winks*
*PS - What were u ppl thinking?*

A foot on the pedal..
That drive/motivation that i badly need is present now.. I'm surging forward academically.. This dude has turn studious now.. My formula? Catalyst Hasmida.. My study companion.. Made frequent trips to Tamp to join her and her fren "babe" ( i dunno his name, yes it's a HE).. It's definitely encouraging when u hv a study clique to join.. Especially with people whose mindset are channeled to studies..

Do you know me?
Impression works in mysterious ways.. The world we're living in is one hell of an interesting place.. Humans, being the most intellectual species here are very much different frm one another.. So as for the way we judge people..
Myself, i believe judgement should be made based on content.. In simpler sense, a person should be judge for who they really are.. It's true that we pass judgement on people based on their appearance.. I'm guilty of that too.. I'll point out to minahs and mats in my everyday life.. I'll describe it as first impression.. However, the earlier mentioned is not a true reflection on the person.. To pass on a real judgement on someone, we hafta know him/her in person too..
Now comes my next point.. It's not about first impression.. Rather about ppl close to you.. Those whom you thought to hv known you thoroughly inside out.. A misjudgement by those dearest to us is contradicting..
No i'm not stuck up.. Neither am i anti-social.. I choose to be alone.. I choose to be quiet.. The reason points out to my self-awareness.. Maybe 2 years in National Service have knocked some sense into me.. Get this.. Our actions and our words have an impact on others.. I was naive and inconsiderate b4.. I've acted blindly.. I do not wanna hurt others anymore..
The more words we spurt out frm our mouth, the more sins we committed.. I rather be on my own and be tongue tied.. Empty vessel makes the most noise..

Egg-grivated
The shock of yesterday is still lingering in one half of my brain.. Thanks to a particular Miss Hannah Banana, i was blinking 40 winks when it was almost 10pm.. It's kinda early 2 embark 2 dreamland but ystrday was an exception..
Sidetrack - Tuesday nites are DULL! TV arent airing anything good.. Waves after waves of reality show.. OOoo there's a "who wants to marry my dad" now.. What's nex? Who want's to marry my granny? *CURSES*..
Back to the main story - Bed was cosy and comfy.. And i was half asleep.. Bartman sang (My hp msg tone).. I was groggy and i could jus exert enough force to lift my eyelids slightly.. Reach out for ma fone.. It reads 1 Message Received.. MMS from Asrena, OOoo hw sweet.. But i was wrong.. Heck gal, what were u thinking? It was a MMS showing a pochong on a bed? I doubt it was a real one, prolly some prank picture.. But it gave me waries of ma own bolster.. See the resemblance? I kicked it away.. There's a surplus.. Added to the MMS, is a sound.. Someone was singing "Pochong tgh rilek atas katil..bla bla bla.."
Asrena - Thanks for bolster-less + sleepless nite.. Grrr.. I'm gonna getcha one daY.. you SEPET! you NONYA!
School - CAD test over.. 2 more to go.. PLC test tmrw, DE on Friday.. Longing for the sch break nex week.. I need da beach badly..

Are you an egg-head?
I'm an egg freak.. I'm addicted to eggs.. Eggs are my daily consumption(MUST).. Constantly bugging my mom to dish up something with eggs.. Yet surprisingly, i'm a walking stick-man.. But my point 2day is not about being thin.. Rather it's about eggs costing 38cents each now.. It's bad times for us egg-lovers.. Caught the news ystrday night.. Reports on new Bird Flu contact in Kelantan, Malaysia.. *HECK!* And for those of u who hv tasted the eggs flown in frm Australia.. Eeyuuh da 38cent egg.. It's blueergHh! It's bland and yucky.. Until my regular dose of protein comes in, i'll b 'egg-grivated'..
Gee i gotta zap a few copies of paper for the class.. Should i charge em? It'z kinda silly to go ard demanding 15cents each frm everyone.. 2nite, Road Feast.. Rosalind is an angel.. Ooo dat captivating smile.. I loiiike her dance a few episodes back *gelek gelek*.. *drools*..
