hihi im here to update again! and this blog entry will be a movie review, dedicated to ULTRAVIOLET! it seems that milla jovovich is destined to be in epidemic genred movies. first it was resident evil, now this. and if u happen to read this blog entry, rejoice, for i have helped u to save at least $7. the show sux! i totally regretted. went to watch it on jus now with allan andrew jeremy and jiasheng. $8 down the drain... and $8 is 1hr and 36mins of my pay damn it. haha ok i shall stop being so calculative. but the show was that bad.
ok here's the thing, if u r some1 who likes very cool and futuristic stuff and prefer to see alot of computerised camera tricks with a lot of exaggeration, this show is definitely for u. it's far more exaggerated than the matrix trilogy, with a whole lot more sci-fi effects. it's very draggy. ok milla jovovich is ultraviolet. she's a vampire who took abt 20mins to fight thru abt 100 soldiers and got this briefcase out of the building. and she fought with thai soldiers too, which i duno y got thai soldiers in the first place. in the briefcase the size of a typical textbook, to her amazement, contained a little boy. like wth right, a approx 12yr old boy can be squeezed into a briefcase. then she saved him, and we didn't know the reason y she did tt. and the whole show revolved around her and the boy whom the bad guys were trying to get back.
then abt 1hr into the show, jiasheng me and drew got urgent. we needed to do small business, and it was untahanable. the show looked like it was gona end, then the boy got taken back by the bad guys. ultraviolet died and for some reason was revived. whoa we sian 1/2. but nvm we tahan somemore. and ultraviolet wanted to get the boy back so she went to this building of 700soldiers. and she said that she will fight them all. and i went 'WHAT?! i seriously need to pee, and u still have to fight 700 soldiers!' and i watched as she fought all of them and got to the ultimate bad guy. sth like the FINAL BOSS in a computer game. then they fought with swords KING KIANG KING KIANG KING KIANG for abt 10 whole mins. and suddenly she took out a gun and shot him dead -_-". and it's not like the gun suddenly appeared out of nowhere, but it was in her pocket the whole time! so y didn't she draw it out in the first place and save 10mins of her time fighting and 10mins of my tahaning. then she got the small kid back and the show ended.
when the show started, we didn't know y she wanted to save tt kid. when the show ended, we still didn't know y she wanted to save the kid. whohoo how nice right. my rating for the movie out of 5 stars max is as follows:
storyline - 0
entertainment value - 0
humour - 0.5
exaggerated fighting, camera tricks, stupidity, wastage of time & money - 10
overall - PLS DUN WATCH IT.
shall update again. so long and good nite.

ok it's been one week since i'm out of my job. got to keep my expenses to a minimum. doubt i will go look for another job soon, coz it's like only 3 more weeks before the hectic poly life resumes again, and nobody will be dumb enuf to employ me hoho. anyway talking abt finances and all... recently i got caught up with this sensitive money issue. ok i was playing this game... some of u may know it some of u may not, but its called DotA, sounds familiar? ok we were winning and our opponents were fuming mad (for wat reason i do not know) and they suddenly started scolding us (me and 4 more of my other frens)... and of coz being normal beings we started to scold them back. like which idiot would not retailiate? and this particular guy suddenly told us: 'u guys muz be living in hdb flats.' and we were like.. 'huh?... where is the link.'
and then he started telling us how uncivilised we were and wat a sad life we're living in and all the privileges that we r unable to enjoy compared to ppl living in private houses/housing estates. haha obviously im pissed, but i tried not to be. in the first place it's jus a computer game, y bring such a sensitive issue in to insult us? i do have many friends who reside in private houses, and they nv once compared themselves and looked down on us. i mean who would be so immature to do so? u may be rich u may live in a big house, ur parents may drive big cars, own several large companies... and u r able to buy watever u wan. yeah if u have those and u r happy then good for u. but there r also another group of ppl like us.. the uncivilised hdb ppl. we r the kind who do not have everything, but feel happy for those little things that we r able to have. and we r more than satisfied with the stuff tt we are able to enjoy which cant be bought by any amount of money. and most importantly we r also as happy as u, so u get tt fact in ur narrow minded rich brain.
haha u all may be wondering y im suddenly so serious abt the money issues and all, well it's only bcoz i cant stand ppl who think they r of a higher class when they r actually not so well off after all. and looking down on others, how idiotic. karma will come back around u. haha another reason y i only chose to talk abt it now is bcoz the incident jus took place a few days ago... and since i've nth to blog abt... i chose to talk abt this topic out of desperation. no disrespect to any1 whatsoever. if u feel offended, pls click the cute little 'X' button on the top right hand side of ur screen and get the fiak out of here. hohoho. shall update again.

oh man holidays r beginning to suck, especially when u know ur expenses are pretty high. went to cut my hair on wed, and this butch cut it for me. the thing was that she kept thinnning my hair, and the whole way thru the cutting process, she didn't use a shaver and a normal pair of scissors... instead she used the thinning scissors ALL THE WAY! and now my hair is thinner than it already was. and the haircut was supposed to be $10, and the butch told me that she will wash if for me. get this straight, she didn't ask whether i wanted it washed anot, she jus told me she was gona wash it for me, so i thot hey tts nice. and tt short 5min hair wash cost me another $6. total $16. quite shitty eh, but then i made it worse by starting to think abt stupid stuff... i told myself OH CRAP! $16 is my 3hrs and 12mins pay. damn, $6 gone like tt. ok nvm i shall stop sounding so cheapopo.
met up with sarah dinesh eugene and granny stef yesterday at serangoon gardens for dinner. eugene was constantly complaining to sarah coz the 4 of us travelled all the way from east side to her hometown at serangoon. it's not that singapore's damn big, but it's still far. ate at this restaurant called ICE CUBE. actually the cube isn't supposed to be spelt out... the restaurants name is spelt 'ICE3.' ok if u duno wat i mean then nvm. then we went to liquid kitchen to drink. we were browsing thru the menu and we saw this drink, it was a mixture of kahlua+vodka+whipped cream. sounds good aye? dinesh and i wanted it, but then the drink was called 'BLOWJOB'. so we were wondering wat we should say to the waitress when she comes to take our order(coz they were all waitresses, no waiters). imagine the waitress asking: 'wat would you like?' and u reply one of the 3...
1) i would like to have a blowjob please
2) give me a blowjob
3) i want a blowjob
if u r dead bored at home and wan some activities to do, u can come up with all the ways to order the following drinks: PUSSY DELIGHT, SLIPPERY NIPPLE. now i didn't come up with those slick names, it was in the menu last nite.
hohoho, shall update again soon.
Wednesday, March 22, 2006
ok i guess it's time to update. i kept delaying myself to update, coz after working like mad for 10 straight days... i became real lazy after that. last day of work was tiring but fun, of coz every one of us were so highly motivated to work.. so excited to get over and done with this meaningless job. but on the whole, the staff were cool and the person in charge was really very nice, and in terms of job expectations, i couldn't have asked for more. cherlie came to exchange cd-rs and sherry came on the last day.. AGAIN. i duno if she is some guest of honour for the bookfest or something, coz she came on both the first and the last days. somewhat like doing the opening and closing of the bookfest.
anyway, our company is rather dumb. they were selling a 4gb micro hard drive during the book fest. the cost? $295! sure, they claim it to be the smallest hard drive in the world (it's the size of the lock on ur gate).. but if u know the market prices of computer parts, u can get a MINI EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE for only $200 and enjoy a storage space of 80gb-200gb! of coz the size will be jus a little bit bigger, but 200gb compared to 4 gb?! and the 4gb one is $95 more. haha. but the problem with our company was that they spent too much money trying to make that damn thing smaller, and since the cost of production is high, they must sell it at a high price. we displayed 5 micro hard drives in our glass cabinet, and every1 was wondering which idiot would spend so much money buying it. our person in charge told us that any1 who manages to sell one will get a free bk meal... his treat of coz.
but then on sunday, there was this guy looking for a 2gb thumbdrive. however it was sold out. our 2gb thumbdrive only costs $195 during the fair, with a usual price of $275. this guy was so desperate to buy a 2gb thumbdrive. so DERRICK WENT TO CON HIM! derrick told him that our thumbdrive has a usual price of $275, and if he jus adds $20 more, he can enjoy double the storage space with our 4gb micro hard drive. the guy was so delighted. normally when i see ppl happy i will be happy, but now when i saw the guy smiling so happily, i actually felt very sad for him. coz with the same amount of money, he could have gotten himself a 200gb external hard drive, and he jus got cheated. actually he didn't really get cheated la, rick seriously used a very clever marketing strategy, and it's jus that the customer dun really know abt market prices of storage devices. see what happens when u do not have perfect info of the market? haha anyway every1 gathered at the cashier to see him pay, and we were trying super duper hard not to laugh, but in our heads we were trying to tell him: 'U R AN IDIOT!' after paying he was so damn happy, but of coz derrick was happier coz he got a free bk meal.
ok so work's over, and im jus waiting for sch to reopen..for now, i will jus wait for my pay and SLACK!

TODAY IS MY OFF DAY! and i am gona fully utilise it! i've yearned for this day for a week. i see the singapore expo halls see until i sian already. after today, its jus friday sat and sun... 10-10pm.. and i'm free! seriously i fricking hate my job. i have low job satisfaction. everyday for 8-12hours, i will stand there and promote cd-r to EVERY CUSTOMER who walks past our booth. i find it dumb but yet its part of marketing our products. then again, to me right.. if the customer wans to buy, he will come to our booth automatically to make a purchase. those who dun wana come in r all not interested, so its kind of useless trying to seduce them into our booth.
anyway... off to a no link topic which i find interesting.
Gerald's Thinking Corner
Y do dreams exist? have u even thot abt tt? isn't it amazing how we are able to unknowingly picture ourselves in a scenario which is totally virtual but yet at that point in time it seems like reality? some dreams we remember clearly, yet most of the others were forgotten as soon as we wake up. i did some research and found out that dreams focus upon our thoughts and emotions, and that dreams deal with immediate concerns in our lives, such as unfinished business from the day, or concerns we are incapable of handling during the course of the day. Dreams can, in fact, teach us things about ourselves that we are unaware of. shocking yeah?
now wat abt nightmares? One reason for nightmares may be a way of our unconsciousness to get our attention about a situation or problem that we have been avoiding. Nightmares serve an important purpose in showing you what is troubling you from within you deeper levels.
so our true emotions will only be made known to us during our sleep, and no one else needs to know. dreaming is not a bad thing, so dun try to buy those spider-web lookalike dream catchers to catch ur dreams, coz the only way to stop dreaming is to disable ur brain. hohoho!

here to update again. 3 straight days, 10-10pm work. its no wonder i got a fever last nite but thankfully today it subsided, coz i'll be leaving for work again in 20mins time. work is boring, i do the same things everyday... tt is to promote cd-r or dvd-r. every now and then, i will hope for customers to brighten up my day.. and so far there were some. talk abt it later. haha and then my so-called supervisors are also very very nice ppl. 2 guys, and both equally nice. so in terms of the job, i couldn't ask for more.
and abt the customers part, let me start off with saturday's customers. there was this guy whose age was abt 60+... who wore specs up to his nose level... he has the looks of an ULTIMATE CHI KO PEK. so he came to our shop and bought 50 dvd-r.. then before he left, derrick introduced him to another offer of 25 dvd-r. i was also jus standing beside derrick.
so the uncle asked derrick: 'huh, another 25 dvds ah? i jus bought 50 u know... buy so many for wat? burn... burn tammy ah?' then i was laughing and laughing. then the uncle asked derrick: 'ur fren ah?' so derrick thot tt the uncle was asking if i was derrick's fren. so derrick said YES. hahaha then the uncle asked: 'huh? tammy ur fren ah?!' hahaha.. then rick told him: 'no la tammy not my fren... this guy is my fren'
and then and then and then do u know wat tt lao chi ko pek uncle said?!! he said: 'HEY HE IS UR FREN?! FROM HIS SIDE VIEW.. HE LOOKS LIKE THE GUY IN THE TAMMY VIDEO!'
whoa when i heard tt, i almost peng! wth! first, 2 ppl told me i look like the guy from super bands, then sherry said i looked like pastor kong, then kaiwei's sister said i look like stef sun. now this is really the ultimate.. this stupid uncle thot i was an overnight porn star. whoa lao... and tt stupid uncle added: 'oh since u all know abt tammy... i will buy 25 more dvd-r from u guys.'
wha piang eh... how lame can he be. haha but since we can make more money, who cares! and kelly poon came to expo at abt 1530 on saturday to perform live on stage. and our booth is jus in front of the stage... so we got a free show. we wanted to shout WEI LIAN WO AI NI! but then we not so bad la in the end hoho.
ok then we have a promotion whereby a pack of 50 cd-r only costs $14, and if u buy 100cd-r (2packs), its $25. so this lady came by and she saw the promotion, so she told us tt she only wanted 25. but then we dun have a 25pc pack for cd-r. then she said she didn't wan so many, coz no use. then rick didn't know wat to do with her. so i told him to con her hoho. i told him to tell her that $14 is actually the price for 25cd-r, and we have a promotion, buy 25pcs and get another 25pcs free... only for $14. and derrick really went to tell her that. whoa and she was like so excited! and in the end she quickly took her money to pay. -_-"
haha at the end of the day, it's these type of customers that give u a good laugh. heading to work now. byebye! hohoho!

IMATION is also another computer brand. so if u drop by expo, come to the IMATION booth and i will try to psycho u to buy cd-r, cd-rw, dvd-r, dvd-rw, thumbdrives and memory cards. anyway sherry dropped by today. i was so so so shocked la! coz there was nobody in the hall... so i paid attention to reading all the info to gain better product knowledge. then sherry stood behind me. then it turned and saw her... i chua tioed like hell! then she can still laugh. how evil. she dropped by 4 times.. and all 4 times i tried to psycho her to buy our products.. and she eventually got scared and went home. awwww.
the job is super super boring, coz nobody. but tmr is saturday... so there should be a crowd to entertain me. anyway today it was my turn to buy dinner for the rest of the staff. of coz the company provided money. so i went to buy CHAI FAN! (nasi padang/rice with dishes) hohoho the auntie was so happy when she heard i wanted to TA PAO 10 packets of chai fan. then i was talking on the phone and i forgot to ask for receipt! whoa hong gan. $35 if no receipt i got to pay back the company. heng i ran back to the food court and the auntie haven thrown it away yet. then i went back to the booth and i realised i nv include myself while counting the number of ppl to buy food for. -_-" so i went back again to buy one more pack for myself. the auntie see me 3 times le, see until sian. so sian, jus knocked off jus now at 1030. tmr need to report at 0930. somebody save me!

Rejoice... 8th march 2006, wednesday, the day i escaped death. as close as it was, as far as it became. well ok i shall elaborate on it further again.
Alright, so i'm stuck in this job, i'm a seller of noob stuff at BOOK FEST in singapore expo. if u guys r kind hearted enuf to come and look for me, i will be at hall 4, near the epson booth. NEAR only ah, but i'm not working for epson. i say epson is bcoz its easy to spot the EPSON booth. but im jus near it. im working for the company called <rich concepts>. let me advertise abit. we sell keyboards, mouse, cd-r, dvd-r, headsets, usb ports, thumbdrives, cd pouches. all the noob computer stuff, we sell. dun get me wrong im not trying to get sales. even if the company makes a lot of money, i still wun get any commission. but i tell u, its seriously damn cheap. no harm coming to take a look.
the bookfest is gona start on friday. so we did the set up on tues and wed. on tues, we went in at 4pm. we were walking to expo under intense heat, the sun was so damn hot. when we got in, we were like... whew... finally can get aircon. then we went into the hall, it was like an oven. the doors were all open, and unfortunately, for the days of preparing the fair, we dun get any aircon. so its like we were trapped in an enclosed place full of nth but heat. 15mins underway and we were perspiring like hell already. and the company bought IKEA tables. we thot ikea tables r quite idiot proof and easy to assemble. we were only half right, they were idiot proof. there were 8 tables, we had to screw all 8. each table has 4 legs (obviously) and each leg has 5 screws. ok if u r a maths bodoh... i help u all calculate... 5x4x8=160. so total 160 screws. and our so called person-in-charge, brought ONE screwdriver. ONE! 4 ppl screw tables with ONE screw driver. we screw until our hands damn pain la coz the hole so tight, like virgin like tt. and we muz force the screw in. and the screw driver was not the exact size to match the screw. whoa had a damn hard time. seriously, ikea, pls do consider making ur tables less screwy and pls dun force customers like us to screw u! dinner was fine.. it was char siew rice.
wednesday, reported at 10am to start work. our lunch came so late... abt 1345. the lady boss bought lunch for us, and sway sway... she bought CHAR SIEW RICE! like oh my goodness! 2 straight meals char siew rice. peng. today also considered a day of set up, so no aircon also. morning still ok, afternoon was like *censored*. from 1pm-4pm, my whole tshirt was fricking wet! i was so pissed. and we had to assemble flat cartons and make them into boxes. so we had to scotchtape them together, and i only had a penknife to cut the scotchtape. due to the heat factor, i was so pissed, that i gave the penknife a hard slash to cut the scotchtape. and the next thing, i shouted WHOHOO!
yeah. if u still can't figure out which part of my body this is, pls go study chapter 5 of ur secondary 2 general science textbook. it has a very chim name, its called the WRIST. look at the veins and my pulse... a few more cm and i'll most likely be dead. to all those ppl who hate me, pls go knock urself at the wall coz i didn't die. of coz i reacted: WHOA HENG AH! hoho and to all my readers, pls learn to treasure ur life, u nv know when u will slit ur wrist while cutting a cardboard. haha. i know i sound like a channel 8 drama serial show, jus abit more crappy.
results will be out this sat. maybe fri even. mbs, pls pls pls save my mbs. im working till 20th march, i can't afford a supp paper. its the 40% tt i'm afraid of, not the overall. my 1b20 classmates muz have heard this a dozen times, but no harm hearing it again. the point is, i can't take supp. if i take supp, i can't graduate from tp, if i cant graduate, i cant go ns, then i cant pass out from ns, then i cant go uni, then i cant work, then i cant get married, then i cant make kids, then i wun be able to retire, then i wun be able to enjoy the last few yrs of my life, then i wun be happy. ok enough crap.
after reading so much crap... now u all muz be hoping tt i died back then right? well, TOO BAD! i..... i feel so alive! praise the lord. will update again when i have time.
Monday, March 06, 2006
ok so it's monday.. and as i promised, i will update. hoho yeah on friday we had the dumb chalet. when it started off, it was very very dumb and every1 was very pissed. but things turned out to be much better when we got there. i went to julian's house with gabriel and derrick to help take the bbq food to the chalet. and when we got to the chalet entrance, we had to walk in coz the stupid chalet security guards did not allow our cab to go inside. quite stupid ah, then we had to take out abt 10 bags from the boot and carry them ourselves into the chalet. and our bungalow was right inside. the heaviest bag was the chicken chop bag. it was really heavy... heavy until julian (the strongest among us) also buay tahan. i volunteered to carry it eventually... and i tried to hard to walk fast, but every now and then i had to stop and rest coz its really damn heavy... and i told myself: 'pls let some kind soul save us' and about 10secs later... a woman in a car honked at us. she asked us to hop on and she will ferry us to our bungalow. whoa we were so thankful. god does answer prayers. ok i shall stop preaching.. haha.
when we reached it was already 5pm. so we started the bbq and the rest were playing mahjong. when they left the mahjong table, andrew derrick jiasheng and i sat down. but andrew and i didn't know how to play mahjong. so the 4 of us
invented a new game.... THE MAHJONG STACKO!
the rules of the game were simple, the 4 of us throws a dice... and the person whose number is the smallest has to take out one mahjong tile... its like uno stacko. the person who makes the thing fall while taking out a tile loses. hoho so childish but then again it was our only form of entertainment during tt nite. more pics to follow....
halfway through the game... it's shaky...
its so amazing that it was still able to stand upright with a super big hole in the middle. you could even see jiasheng's eyes from it.
the nite was spent playing ps2 all the way till 5am when we finally slept till 10am. then it was home sweet home.
Thursday, March 02, 2006
oh well i think i better update a little coz the next time i update my blog is gona be on monday. from fri-sun, i will be too busy to blog. met derrick and gang for DotA at 11am yesterday.. there were 7 of us so the teams were uneven (3vs4) and sway sway i was in the team of 3. and that particular match lasted for 115mins! tts like 1hr 55mins. imagine urself staring at the computer screen for 1hr 55mins, tt's even longer than watching some movies. thankfully in the end we won and when i looked at the time, it was 2pm. i realised i was supposed to meet eugene, sarah and granny stef at CITY HALL MRT STATION at 2pm. and i was still at pavilion in tampines. i panicked like balls so i called granny stef and she was still at home -_-". hoho heng ah! so i met her at tamp and we took a train down to city hall to meet eugene and sarah.
granny stef brought us to marina square to do shopping. dinesh, if u happen to read this, we r sorry for not asking u along, coz tt day when we planned it in msn u weren't online and yesterday when we called u, u were still sleeping. sincere apologies. ok moving on, we all know to even get to marina square, first we had to cut thru city link mall. (ok from this point on, pls picture in ur head everything i say and try to visualise the situation).... as we were walking near the adidas shop to go up the escalator, i spotted a same sex couple. a butch and a normal sexy long-haired girl. always the case, the geeks used to get the chicks. now the butches get the chicks. and as we were going up the escalator behind them, we were talking and they were also talking. then the butch placed her unmanly hands on the chick's ASS! a full-palmed PIAK! then her middle finger was right in the middle of the chick's buttline. eeeeee yer.... and dun ask me how i know... they were less than 1metre in front of me and throughout the ascension of the escalator, the bucth's hand was on the girl's butt and buttline! i was practically staring la hoho. 1st time nvm. so we went up the escalator to raffles link, they were in front of us again, and again on the escalator she touched the chick's BUTT! and there was also a 3rd time, when going up the escalator to marina square. whoa i super buay tahan. we didn't tail them but then from wat i've seen, i can predict tt they r going to be doing the same thing everytime they take escalators. disgusting.
ok so the shopping trip was still alright. eugene bought a bag and i bought berms. granny stef brought us to eat choc fondue at swiss culture, suntec city mall. sarah went off to church for mass and then granny brought eugene and i go candy empire, millenia walk. u have to go there ppl, and when u're there, look up. they have this ceiling which is so low, but when u look at it, it seems like 11storeys high. and i was so amazed that i kept looking up like a noob. wat to do, virgin mah. then we went back to suntec and as we wanted to walk in to the entrance nearest to carrefour, we saw a few malay carrefour staff, and a malay couple standing at the corner. then we only happened to walk pass when we heard this fat girl shouting to the guy:'I DUN WAN TO LISTEN TO U! COZ I WAN TO BREAK UP WITH U!' whoa we all were so stunned. the guy also looked scareded. if i were him, i also will tio chuaded. but we were thinking... come on, the guy looks so normal and the girl is a super super super FAT girl! really FAT! and she wore a pink spaghetti, so u can see all her extras poping out. if i were the guy, i would jus break up. y would u still wan a girl who has the potential to bully u during meals? =X
tts all for yesterday. met jiasheng rick and andrew for lunch today at tm, and at the same time i went to buy my niece's and nephews (matilda's and mattheus') bday presents. i was so paiseh to go into toys'r'us, especially when i had to go to the barbie doll section to grab a barbie doll. i jus went in, took one doll and came out and paid. whoa inside tt section all the young girls aged 3-7 stared at me and i jus smiled like an idiot.
hoho the dumbf**k chalet is tmr. will blog more abt tt on monday! cya guys!
