God has his funny ways...

I call this the "Dan Brown" moment cos if you read his books, the culprit/evil mastermind is always someone who is within the hero's grasp all the time but doesn't realise it till the end of the story.

this is a real story btw!

Taxi-driver's own goal

A taxi driver unwittingly became the getaway driver for a thief who had just burgled his home.

Mr Shen, of Huainan city, picked up the passenger at a bus stop at around 3am, reports Xin'an Evening Post.

"He had a lot of home appliances, so I helped him put all of his things into the cab," he said.

"I noticed he had a fish without a tail, and I thought how much it looked like the fish in my freezer at home. But then I laughed at myself for even having the thought."

The passenger said he had just returned from a trip to his home town and had been dropped off by a long distance bus.

Mr Shen only realised the truth when he later returned home to find his house broken into and his possessions - including the tail-less fish - missing.

Police later arrested a 56-year-old man who faces charges of burglary and theft.


Sorry for not posting a proper entry for a long time.... i've been busy with work, and trying to consolidate things. hehe I promise a post will be up soon!

Frujch, forever.

Into my final lap here at SMU. The checkered flag is up! I'm drifting round the bend, just about to put my peddle to the metal. 2 more exam papers over the next 10 days and it'll be all over. My life as a student will be stripped off me... but the memories will be held dearly. But i'll save the emo part for another day.

Sadly though, some things had to say goodbye over the weekend. Frujch - my second home - had their last day of business on friday. It was a bitter sweet moment for everyone, especially the owners.


The 4th and last beer pong..

4 times more exciting and fun than the 1st one.



















Just look how busy we were on our last day!!!! hahaha orders were flying in, they were never-ending!

my poor darling was dead tired making all those delicious sandwiches and milkshakes for our beloved customers.

you should have seen their faces when i announced that sandwiches were temporarily our of stock... hahaha it was as though their world came crashing down. You could give them all a wedgie, and they would STILL be in shock. hahaha okay, i exaggerate.

here's a lovely video of the gurls receiving an 'award' from the arts and cultural fratenity... =)






AND when the doors of business closed for the last time, it was OUR turn to have fun...















And so now, the music has faded,
along with it, laughters all died down
I stand up in the once lively place
to take one last look around.

I remember all the colour paint
which on the walls we would layer
I would also miss the sounds..
except the repetitive songs of John Mayer.

I smile at all the silly names
that i invented for the menu
the friendly staff behind the counter
saying "hello, how may i help you?"

The smell of bread in the grill
the whiff of milkshakes and soup
the taste of my favourite Tur Key Ingredient
with the added lingoberry poop (?)

The only place i would gravitate to
Frujch is my second home and no wonder
So many memories i share with it
and each day they grow fonder.

I will miss shal's foosball 'quick fix'
and nab's occasional burst of laughter
My intimate fried rice moments with Malcolm
and my baby smiling at me from behind the counter.

And all the frujchaholics too!
gee, there's so many, where do i start??
all i can say is frujch and i love u all ...
it's sad that we have to fart. i mean, part.

Frujch is not just a name
I say it with a warm fuzzy feeling
it stands for the best times in my uni life
it feels so good that my skin is peeling...

There were times, seems like yesterday
that i felt this wave of emotion
If frujch's life was constipation
then comes the time to pass motion

So although a chapter has closed
the memories will stick like glue
here comes the cheesy end to the poem
*deep breath* "Frujch... i love you..."

And so now, the music has faded...

Birthdays, birthdays and MORE bdays.


So many of my friends are born between march 20th to march 25th! it's insane! 
first there was malik's! 

 
We (together with chao and char) had a great time! had quite good food at Ramen Ten, and then we watched Horton! hahaha it was really a spur of the moment thing, but we didn't regret watching it at all! it's damn funny. 





then there was my big brother's bday too! he brought us to Mayim restaurant at west mall! rrrreally nice food, but damn oily too. hahah so much for my healthy eating regime. haha

MY GOOD FRIEND SHAL pointed out to me that i completely forgot the extremely fun party at her place... hahaha see what i mean when i say that there's too many bdays!?!? i'm so sorry shal i wrote this very late at night and i totally forgot! but dun get me wrong! u mean a lot to me~ Happy happy bday babe! hope u were happy with the 'surprise'! haha and who has the pictures btw?!?! 

Other friends celebrating their bday: Huiwen, Melati, Merrylyn, Jun Mei and Paik! Happy happy birthday you guys! may all ur wishes come true! and may the signs of aging occur only after ure 40. hahaha

i told my friend about how many of my friends were celebrating their bday these few days... and after pondering, she asked: "is june a good time to have sex?" hahahaha that totally caught me off-guard. hahahah i only got it after awhile. so u can imagine what confusion i had before that. hahahahahaha. well. i dunno. IS june like, the lurve month? when hormones aplenty are hovering in the air... when Aphrodite is on steroids. u couples out there wait till june and let me know, ok? hahaha.

2 magnificient years~

These few days have been so hectic, that i hardly had time to blog. yikes. who would have known that a year 4 still has to slog it out like the rest of the rats? We should be on our pedestal, awaiting a grand march into nonstudental (not even a real word) life. Fick. nevermind! it's my FINAL lap. the checkered flag has been waved. time to turn on my turbonucleurfabbydabbyshicklemynipple engines!!



ANYWAYS things have happened over the past few days... firstly, shermeen and i marked our 2nd year together on March 15th!! Woohooo! Well, for me, it's not a big deal cos anyway i intend to be with her for a much much longer time than that. at least until i get my sex change. KIDDING. But anyhow yeah i think the 2 year mark is a time for me to look back at our relationship... and what a journey it has been. She's been through so much with me... and I'm really a lucky guy. I love you dear. Here's to many more crazy-cackling, dog-tripping, nipple-pinching, nose-pressing, butt-shaking, movie-watching, food-hunting, comic-reading years ahead!!

On a side note, I have begun a healthy diet regime. I am determined! The strength in me is resilient! I shall only eat meat 2 days within a week. and the meat shall not be deep fried. Deep fried stuff only allowed once per week! Vegetables and fruits everyday! It's just so hard cos it's not easy finding nice tasting food with no meat. hahaha. maybe i'm just bloody greedy. I wonder how long my healthy diet regime is gonna last me before i give in to the serpent of gluttony. hahaha.

There comes a time when one needs to be random.

It's official. After a grand total of 10 votes in my poll, i am convinced i look like a Korean. So from now on, i'll have a Korean name. But a nice one. Like Bae Hiao Bai. or Park Yor Kar. Maybe Yoo Anh Mee. hahah

In other news, i was hosting at Tangs just last night. Hosted along side Power 98 DJ for a little while. Was pretty honoured. =)

Oh and i caught this Lion 'stoning' ...












I never thot i'd say this, but i'm now a convert. I have turned to the aesthetics and the fun-side of Mac. I have effectively secured a deal with this guy (who intends to sign up for singtel broadband, of which he'll rcv a free macbook) for $1400. A STEAL! woohooo! Now all i need is to sell my current lappie. If u know of anyone who wants a one year old compaq presario, windows vista, 1.73 Ghz and 1.5GB ram for $900.... pls let me know! It's in VERY good condition.



=) hope everyone had a happy weekend~

Let the good times roll!

The past few days have been rather exciting...

starting from Waikiki @ Sentosa.... had loads of fun with my team, the "bruebellys"!! oh and we played bossaball too!! it's this cool new game played on this inflated volleyball court! So damn fun! couldn't stop bouncing around! almost started singing gummy bears theme song.
















<-- Then on monday I performed @ chinatown... for some SECRET event /program to which i am sworn to secrecy. just wanted to show the outfit i was wearing! So farnie! i was actually trying to learn the real way to sit from the ah peks around the temple. hahah








On tuesday evening, attended SMUBE's AGM. although i must say that the mouth-watering hotel rendezvouz catered food was a BIG pulling factor for me to attend... in the end, i just got so damn high seeing my old friends like Gayle, Wanida, Alvina, Eunice, XP... and my fellow old birds like LN, Heyuan, jeremy, jiahui etc... aiyah so many of u! u know who u are! Miss them soooo much.

And i want to thank Chloe, my dearest successor 1 year back, who has in turn now stepped down to make way for the next WARhead. Great job, girl. u can see how happy i was for ya. Ur bubbly nature is something that will stay with BE forever. Once a WARrior, always a WARrior!

Now, back to the topic about the hotel rendezvouz food. (think i'll call it rendez-food. hahaha) it was gooooood. gave me a high too, as many of my friends there would testify. hahah. i'm gonna bring my gf there soon i hope!

Bumped into Uncle Andrew today too. It's so nice seeing the guy who gave me great comfort and support and laughter since i was a freshie... he's really like an uncle or godfather to me.

And GAWD. if i got paid a dollar for evertime someone says i resemble Adrian Pang, i'll be retiring even before i start working! For the last time, HE is trying to be like ME. not the other way round! hahaha

Overall, a great day with a solid smile plastered on my face!
