wooooooo ! just got home from halloween celebration at my new workplace. villa bali. :D currently working as a barman there. :D

it was a fucking creepy start.. with rain and lightning pouring.. then we had to put on an act for mr potato. one of our management team.. in order to make him leave before we can party at our workplace. :D

shiok siol.. :D all the company.. the booze.. and the ambience.. fucking nice..

started of with our first drink. everyone got the same. parfait amour + smth kuku + cranberry.. tastes mild and sweet fringging enjoyable.. until i finished it and ask for my seconds. dammit.

i frigging told the bar maid : "anything you mix la" and i regretted the moment jessica opened her mouth... fuck sial.. hhaahahahaha. she almost got me drunk...

chivas + absolut 100 + glenfidditch + mcallan 12 + baileys mint abit on the rocks. and i finished it in one mouth full. fucking hot.

the night went well all the way and i survived the ordeal (Y). that explains why im blogging now. :D

although its a halloween party, the lead was maven, my senior barman, cause its his last day. then we took turns to toast him. but of course we drank double of whatever we gave him la.. but it was still fucking fierce. cause 14 people toasting him. imagine that. he drank half of it neat. (Y)

i hereby salute him.

he puked but he's still standing and is probably having breakfast with the rest of the gang right now at some macdonalds'.

(Y)

im almost dead now.. im gonna bathe then go sleep alr.

i've been a good boy. at least i da bao breakfast for my mom. although i didn't for my sis.. but at least i da bao for my mom. kk.. i better go bathe and sleep before i start typing gibberish..

29th october 2009 - 2 more days to pay day - rainy, wet day.

Donated my blood for the first time ! 3 more months till i know my blood type (Y)

It feels like nothing after donating blood. but the effects came to me when im on my way home. wo~ suddenly super sleepy.. hahahaha.. just now i got up from my bed after lying down for awhile, i felt light-headed. But all is well. :D

Tonnes of people went to donate blood today siol. i was the 175th to fill up the form. I guess there was about 200++ people today? Pretty fun experience. The nurse was like digging under my skin looking for my vein. Best part is, she went beyond the area she numbed. ): ouchie. she tried like 4 times before finding it. ):

Was planning to go play bball after donating blood. *apparently ignoring the advice of avoiding strenuous activities for 12 hours after donating blood* However, it rained. so we ended up playing contract bridge by the pool. :D pretty shiok lepak session la. :D

Okay de la.. everything's fine. gonna go find some food now. then do my part for IPDN project. :D

had a nice, yet disturbing dream this morning.

3rd day of october sem - warm, laid back day

was watching teevee with ma the other day. watched this taiwan show where senior actors/actresses/celebs shares their experiences of failures and successes. then it dawned on me that these people are really cool.

how many a time can you look back at your mistakes and laugh about it.
how many a time can you look back at your saddest moments in life and talk about it.
how many a time can you laugh at how ridiculous you were in the past.
how many a time can you share these moments with others to inspire them.

i was pretty afraid of looking back at not just the distant past. but even recent past as well. for a few weeks. nasty things has happened. i said bad things. i did wrong things. i was afraid of recollecting these memories.

then i watched these people sharing their experiences. things they've been through like how his father is going to die and he was miles away rushing back only to receive a call from his brother halfway that he can take his time already and just be there safe. because his father is already dead. although he didn't laugh about it *well, you shouldn't be..* he was able to share such emotional recollections without shedding a tear.

this got me inspired and thinking that, "well, the past is done and set already. even if we dont look at it, it has happened. if we look at it and feel sad, we cant do anything about it. so why dont we look back and share the stories. if its some dumb moments, we'll all laugh about it. if its sad moments, share it to motivate others and make them feel better. why not?"

feels so much easier now. :D

attended my first IS lesson for the term. met a cool teacher who's very open and different from other lecturers in terms of her choice of words and examples. fuck and sex.

she's using sex as the theme of all her examples and it was pretty interesting ! like.. "dont tell me you want to be a virgin until you've tried sex." which is to say "dont tell me you want to try art until you've tried it" pretty apt eh?

well, she got pretty upset halfway through the lessons because everyone is practically doing what she's showing. contradicting? not really.

you see, the lesson is exploring arts and design. we're suppose to be exploring. not following. but everyone is not TRYING out new ways of doing things but waiting to LEARN new ways of doing things. well, she got pretty upset and subtle-ly flared up at the whole class. but everyone seems to still be doing the same thing. i've tried a different approach though. :D

the theme was wire sculpting your superhero. in layman's terms, it'd be using a wire to create the image of your superhero.

we're given alot of freedom in the class. so much freedom that most of us dont know what to do with it. we're pretty lost. hahahhaa. but well. this has something to do with our upbringing. (N)

we ended the lesson with our sculptures half-done and junnie, kelland and i helped her carry the remaining materials to her car. and what a car she drives. some mercedes SLK 200 kompressor. we were still trying to find her car plate number pretty hard. then when we saw the car we were like wo~

call us SK or whatever. but we havent seen a lecturer that rich. :D well, at least i hadn't. AUNTY ELIZ ! jia you oh ! im waiting to hitch your ride.

first day of october semester - calm, sunny day

Late for my first lesson as usual, entered the class perspiring like my sweat glands are on sugar rush. Got my name called by my favourite lecturer thrice for nothing in particular. He called me to put down my bag twice and told me to put off my wallet when i was arranging my notes during his lecture. Not a very good thing actually. But i dont really care. :D I'm happy.

Had lunch with ZC, Kelvin and Irfan. Another usual afternoon with casual talks of nothing in particular, nothing that matters anyway. After lunch was my first lesson on FNS. Boy, the whole lesson can be summarised in three words. "fuck chim, bodoh".

Prawning is a fun thing to do. Very good chance to stone like free with the convenient excuse of focusing. (Y). Caught quite a number of prawns in good 3 hours. Fun hours, i'd say. :D

good day with good company and good mood. cant ask for more, yo.

BOO ! Back to do some typings to kill time. (Y)

Just got back from a trip to genting with binni, fh and f like two days ago. It was pretty good. Though not really so fun that I'll wanna keep ranting on and on about it. However, it was still an unforgettable experience. Well, its my first time going out of singapore after so long. Whatsmore, with friends only.

This trip really got me motivated to go and explore the world, meeting new people and things. My list of places I want to visit just got longer. First, it'll be a cambodia trip next year during my March vacations, subsequently I want to go to places like Sarawak, Tioman and most probably parts of China, haven't spent much thoughts on china yet though.

Been a long time since I'm here ranting, eh? Getting kinnda rusty with my written english. *doesn't sound too good* Maybe I shall come back more often. (Y)

I've gotten a job at VillaBali as a Bar Trainee ! Well, thats like 3 weeks ago. Haha ! Well, work is pretty laid-back but the passion of my seniors towards bartending really got me motivated to learn more about bartending and flairing too ! I'm thinking of mastering some flairing techniques and work on bartending. After i've mastered some of those, I'll travel around the world visiting pubs, meeting new people, exchanging skills and tips. Pretty fun, eh? (Y)

Well, books with tonnes of conspiracy theories are really awesome. I've caught half of "The Da Vinci Code" movie on AXN the other day. It was really thought provoking and I feel that it really challenges the beliefs of christians/catholics. Imagine someone is trying to suggest something else about something you truly believe in. Hmm.

Alrights. I'm too lazy to carry on now. Another time, maybe.
