He wasn't feeling well already. 5 girls din expect much excitment. Xiao Zhu made cute faces n smiled soooo wonderfully at the girls whn the cab n his coach was stopped at a traffic light side by side... so close yet so far. Looked betta in person, so much betta. Tall, tan, cute, handsome, fashionable, jap jap kinda, all girls' dream lover. At the hotel, the girls got down the maxi cab. one of them, who declined to give her full name, only calling herself PS, walk side by side wif xiao zhu n kept looking at him, not saying a word. she was star-struck. whn he got to the lobby, the girls were kept out. whn PS got back to the maxi cab, the only thing she said was "jiao nuan" (legs soft meaning: weak at her knees). She reached for her water bottle n took a few sips, heart beating very fast... "jiao nuan" she said again n again. took her a full 15 mins to return to earth. Xiao Zhu made her day...

What doing me? Me doing what?

I have a weird bio-clock these days.. actually, starting from Sat nite after the reunion at grandma's place.. Slept at ard 10pm then woke up at 5am on Sunday. Went to pee n then i can't get back to sleep... slept at 10+pm on sunday nite n again i woke up at 5am... Went to pee n slept till abt 7am. Slept at 10+pm again, waking up at 5 am today. went back to sleep n opened my eyes to c light at 7+, finally i really owke up at 9... AND i set the alarm clock for the past few mornings at 9am! haiz... weird... n i'm already yawning away now...

of all those 8 "things-to-do" only 2 were done... packing up n tidying my room took abt 3 days... rest of the time spent on running errands, colouring my hair, reading, taking breaks in-between, and dunno what else. i felt busy, but my gunbound ranking hasn't climbed much, nor my trivia did... but i really dunno wht i really did... just bz...

made tom yum steamboat today at home. spent the whole afternoon preparing the stuff. now, my nails are only half done... base colour done.. wondering to do a french tip or do some designs...

Very sleepy!!! zzZZZ...

Things-to-do

Here's a list of things-to-do...

1) pack up my room - erm... always say tt, but minor cleanups here n there... i need a major overhaul!

2) finish writing abt the china trip - yesh, been back for a few months n left a few days of entries to write...

3) arrange n "name" the photos taken in china - to send to relatives n to know wht was taken where...

4) register for driving classes - since oct (?) i've been saying abt it... its "next year" already...

5) reinstall my adobe softwares into the comp - as all of u who wld know, mine's a xp now... reinstalled almost everything... but not almost...

6) sort out my mp3s - well, thy need to be re-catergorised again... after loading them into the comp after it has become a xp...

7) get a "cargo" skirt for new year - explainatory by itself

8) settle misc stuff wif someone who i no longer tok to - need to get back some files n my stuff from his place. need to settle distributorship rights too...

9) get a PT job...

Chinese always say not to carry old debts, old stuff into the new year... can i complete my mission of 9 things in excately 2 weeks? hmm, actually the skirt is a "have to" thingy rite? its for the new year mah.. doh... so its huat ah! (yesh, pun intended... although not funny)

Pissed n sad... All becos of a game?

sad.. damn sad... its just a game... crying as i'm typing this... y? its just a game... y? kill in sight n if u're confident of the shot, esp whn its a fooking tight game. if u're not confident, y take tt shot? blames starting coming n tt's how i feel it. how u phrase yr words is how pple conceive it... its just a fooking game... pissed... sad... dun understand a shit... mayb i shld just stick to trivia n quit this game. mayb this game can be played afterall, but not wif yr bf or close frds...

Mahjong, mahjong... seh... damn seh...

First official entry of year 2004. Wht have i been doin for the past 3 days? well, 2 days of mahjong n 1 day of sleep.

on the eve, Baby, jan n me went over to alex's place n we met another of Baby's frd, jeremy for mahjong. 5? i shared a seat wif Baby for the first round. played till abt 5+ thn we went for supper. went back to alex's place at ard 7am n started another round till almost 1pm. took a nap for a few minutes n started another round at 1+. the next round was sloooowwwww. wif many many breaks in between n we finished it at 6+. went for dinner n thn went home...

slept from 8+ till 12am. woke up to watch a bit of tv, read papers n my book i borrowed from the library.went back to sleep at 3+am.... all the way till 7pm............

dinner n tv thn met up for pool wif Baby, jan n alex at ard 11+pm. after pool we went for supper n started our mahjong at my place at abt 6+am. finished the first round at almost 11am. rested for a while n started the next round close to 12. finished at ard 4+...

Overall: Baby, Jan n me made a little profit. Alex was the overall loser. Mahjong is fun n challenging. esp whn the game is almost drawing n no one's winning yet. tt's whn u start to play the role of a goalkeeper. but mahjong overnite? seh... damn seh, plus mahjong is a game tt kills brain cells. n playing it overnite? seh.. damn seh...

zzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZ................

Countdown to 2004

In a few hours its 2004. A new year to start afresh with. Looking back, this year was filled wif ups n downs.. more downs thn ups really.

i had wrote b4, as time passed whtever u do will just be a memory. so let whtever happened be just a nightmare, a memory.... A memory which i really wana forget. i'm free now... Never felt so relieved b4. i said bye to a certain person n it'll be foreva. after doin tt, i felt so relieved. just like havin a heavy load taken off me... just a question tt i'm faced with. am i weird? am i the only one ard me in my group of frds or in the world tt can accept ex-es being as close frds? am i the only one ard me in my group of frds or in the world tt can accept platonic friendship? how i define platonic? a very very close frd who is the opposite sex as u. u go out together, call each other, tease each other, punch each other n help each other, blah blah, whether u have bf/gf or not.

i had 3 very close platonic frds. one became my bf n din tok to me after i broke up wif him. maybe we din know how to tok to each other then. now its just "hi" "bye" kinda tok... i chose to say goodbye to another ex after things happened. dun be mistaken, we were as close as siblings after we broke up, but things jus happened n now i choose to hate/ignore him for life.

3rd one is my Baby. he was my listening ear n one of my closest n bestest frd. Now tt we're together, he's still someone who i tell everything to. Someone who shares all my troubles n probs. usually, somehow u'll wana keep a little stuff from yr bf, but Baby is diff. Mayb he's too close to me tt i just tell him everything. everyone will agree tt its hard to have a bf/gf who is yr bestest n closest frd at the same time. mayb its fate ah? fate, to have a person who is yr bf n yr bestest n closest frd at the same time. hehe... now, i have no more platonic frds, except my Baby... *muacks*

on the 2nd last day of the year, at approx 2.15am, showbiz lost another big shining star. She's Anita Mui. Talanted in every aspect be it performing on stage, singing or dancing. whn u c her perform, u can tell she's very confident tt she's puttin up a good show for the auidence. the song tt i'll always remb is her "why why tell me why..." always sing tt line to my parents whn i was younger if i had questions to ask them. After all these deaths of talented artistes, we have lost some great "teachers". Anita was one to look after the younger generation, like a big sister. Which was y whn she passed on, she had more thn 50 close frds ard her. even tony leung n miriam yeung cancelled the remaining promotion activities for their new movie in taiwan to rush back to hongkong. this is how much respect there is in HK for this big sister.

i hope to get my PT job soon. Louis is giving me a hand. hope i'll get it soon. too much time bumming at home. tt's y i say its a new year... time to start afresh.

Paced's comeback to the cheong scene...

Just came back from Dbl O...Music was ok... Supposed to be retro nite, but the music wasn't tt retro-ish after all. Still prefer Zouk's Mambo nite's mix... Celebrated Jensen's bday... Saw ex-taka colleague, Val there... Still so pretty as ever.. hehe...

Legs are breaking n aching n sore.. some theories/reasons/excuses n wht's not y my "chopsticks" are crying for help...

2) Shoes: Heels.. dammit... Standing for a few hours in my Charles & Keith... I think i had flat soles on my feet for most of the time for the last 1++, close to 2 years...

3) Legs: As close friends would know, my darling legs are close to breaking even w/out all these activities... Well, injuries galore... n for the last 1++, close to 2 years, i haven been stressing my legs tt much already...

4) Weight: I think my legs are complaining cos their owner is wayyyyy too heavy.. yesh, time to diet... well, start tmr... n tt "tmr" will nvr ever come...

5) Conculsion: fooking tired... for the last 1++, close to 2 years, i've nvr been so tired b4...

Xmas... Penny for tots? or just pms?

Jingle Bells Jingle Bells Jingle All The Way...

Xmas mood is here n soon it'll be a new year... Countdown starts towards 2004 now...

25th has past. Time to collect money too...

As i start to recall how i spent the past Xmas(es) in recent years, most of them r either at work or wif frds. After so many years, i yearned to really have fun n spend it well. n this year, i have my Baby wif me.

Although some may think its just like normal days, but wht makes it so special is having tt someone important beside you during Xmas. Although we did not have loads of fun shouting the nos. at a countdown party nor did we join the crowd at orchard, it was really a pleasant lovely nite, holding his hand, away from the crowd, having dinner n watching a movie. It was peace n quiet, not too many pple ard, so u can just really ignore n pretend no one's ard, just me n my Baby...

As i'm writing, things are changing. Things have changed for sure. Pple change too... have i mentioned a particular person called me after i wrote tt fateful entry abt "ignoring for life"? seems like nothing happened. Everything's still a standstill. Time? Everyone need time... Shld i sms or call abt the money? haiz...

Things to think abt... A lock's had been there for 10 years n its rusty. it had been locking something so dear to u tt u dun even wana open it up cos u might lose it. U feel that u shld change a new one. But somehow or rather, the key to the old one is lost. since u're not gonna open it up, shld u use the new lock n leave the old one there? or shld u cut the old one away? Since the old one's redundant, y leave it there? but it has faithfully held it for 10 years, it does have some significant memorial value, rite? penny for tots, so how?

Mayb u guys shld just ignore the above 2 paras... think its the pms thingy kicking in...

Golden Horse Awards 2003

A few days back, a sad news came in... A very talented stuntman/actor Blacky Ke Shou Liang died. Rumours are saying he died from a asthma attack, some say he died due to alcohol overdose. 6 years back, ard this time, we lost Zhang Yu Sheng. In April tis year, we lost Kor Kor. now we lost him. Mayb cos i'm a media person, so i tend to be very saddened/disturbed by such news...

but a piece of good news... so far we had a few singaporean entries in the Golden Horse Awards, like Fann Wong for Best Newcomer in The Truth of Jane & Sam. Now Megan Zheng has done us proud by bringing home the award for Best Newcomer for her role in Homerun. Well, SG movies, overall, haiz...

Where have all the good film makers gone to? its true that we won awards in film festivals overseas but as for commercial films, we still suck. so wht if SGD was pumped into Jian Gui, the movie which won Angelica Lee the Best Actress award in Golden Horse? She's a Malaysian, not a Singaporean. We need actual SG commerical films coming up, wif full SG cast n crew! I guess tt'll do us proud. Homerun has at least done the minimal now... Where are the rest?
