Freaky

Well, had an exciting day today, or rather, yesterday. Well, at least toward the end of the day... After a gruelling 11+ hours at Will's house doing our PR project, we had a neutral party, Clemmie, saying that our video was 'okay' only... So much for blowing the other teams out of the water.

Headed to try out the famous Punggol Nasi Lemak (although I had tried it a couple of times before, chicken wing, sedap!) but it was closed!!!! After breathing down my hokkien noodles, Janis and I went to get a packet of durians!!!! Woohoo!!! After years of durian celibacy, I finally had the chance to try the famous Mao Shan Wang durian!!! Tasty, but jelak lah! When driving out, I went against the flow, so to speak... Oops!

But the highlight of the day was yet to come. On the way back, with Nurul and Janis in the car, we were just about the let Nurul off when the motorcycle right in front of us ran over a piece of wood that the construction site beside so inconsiderately left behind and skidded for a few meters! It was like so surreal, with sparks flying and the motorcyclist tumbling, arms and legs flailing all over the place. I avoided that lane, stopped by the side of the road to help the poor dude. He wasn't drunk but was shocked and supremely unlucky. He wasn't injured when I left him though. I had to remove the wood and even a heavy metal piece on the road before anyone else got hurt. A nice taxi uncle stopped to help the poor guy as well. Hope that he is fine, the motorcyclist I mean... Freaky.

In love with you

Ah... Brings back memories... =)

Would you?

Would you miss me if I were gone?
Would you think of me when they play that song?
Would you even know that I have left?
Would you even mourn my death?
Would you stay, if I asked you not to leave?
Would you need me to beg and say please?
Would you even cast a glance my way?
Would you speak to me, what would you say?
Would you even know that I exist?
Would you even get to read this?

Time to get in gear

As I am half sitting, half lying on my bed, I have this feeling that I need to get my fat butt back into gear and start working out more regularly. I feel and look fat and have been slacking off too much. To compound my laziness, I have been eating like nobody's business. So I have to eat right and exercise more starting right now. But I think I will start next week, next week sounds good...

P.S. I feel like that now, but without the mutant powers or whatnot. For those interested in who this is, click on the picture.

Dandelion Boy

There once lived a boy out in the fields,
alone by himself, out of everyone's view.
He was happy in the flowers, grass and trees,
running, skipping around, oh-so-very free.
One thing this boy was proud of, oh so proud of he was,
He had a dandelion head, he thought he was so boss.
His head covered in fluff, it was so full and thick,
He admired himself everyday, that was his schtick.
But one day came a wind, so strong and wild,
It blew off all his fluff, oh that poor, poor child.
His head which used to be so full now was quite bald,
In a twinkling of an eye, before he knew it, he lost it all.
This should teach you, a lesson should be learnt,
That it's not too good to be a dandelion, better to be a fern.

Today

Got my Eternal 811s back from Tet Tailors and I must say that they did a good job. The repairs look and feel good. Little patches of denim on the inside to prevent the holes from getting bigger and tearing apart. My mum says that it looks like my jeans got 'ta ko yok', meaning 'stick on medicated plasters'. Hahaha. Oh, and just dumped my PBJs into the bucket for a hot soak because they stretched out too much. Too fat I guess. Shrink shrink shrink! :)

Anyway, today was kind of a horrid day. I endured discomfort the whole day; headache, neckache, queasy stomach. At first I thought it was the Erdinger I had last night. I get headaches even with the littlest bit of alcohol, and I will flush red for like hours. But even the worst hangover don't last so long right? And I only had a tall glass/bottle! Boo to high alcohol sensitivity! Hahaha. Had fun with the people who were there though. :)

Kharmah the magical lizard

Kharmah was a baby lizard alone on the wall,
when suddenly with a great 'BOOM' he heard something fall.
He twisted his neck around to take a look,
what he saw next really made him spooked.
Wings on the back, a wand in a hand,
and in the other was a huge electric fan.
It was the Hairball Fairy, shaped like a cat,
how else would she appear, other than that.
So scared Kharmah was, his tail dropped right off,
'Oh dearie me, poor thing,' the Hairball Fairy coughed.
With a swish and a swash and pointing to Kharmah's head,
'To compensate you, I will give you magic!' the Hairball Fairy said.
Kharmah nearly fell off the wall, oh yes he almost did,
Because the Fairy pointed the electric fan, a mistaken deed.
'Oh dearie me, I am sorry!' the Hairball Fairy squealed,
Pointing her wand and in him much magic she filled.
'You can turn invisible now,' the Hairball Fairy told Kharmah,
she happily instructed, 'Go home and tell your mama!'
She disappeared in a puff of smoke and a retching sound,
as though a hairball was being coughed out; huge, wet and round.
Kharmah could turn invisible and not be seen, not even a speck,
He could now grow fat as it is all better to sneak up on insects!
But when his tail drops off he cannot fade away,
only until his tail grows back, that very day.
