cutie!


look at this!
http://www.theweddingthoughts.com/

and the pic! gosh! this is soooooo cute!!! my fave lamby!!! its a wedding ring pillow... i want this! i wanna get marry so i can use this!!! sooo sweet.. look.. can sew the names and dates 1....
i wan i wan!
i wanna get marry!! i wan the pillow!

Caution!



Hmmm.. I suspect some1 in heaven read my blog....

See!! It did not rain today!! after reading my blog.... hehehe

well.. i should make more wishes on my blog... like.... let me win 4d... coz i am.... poor? let me find my prince charming.. coz ... i am.... old?

Anyway, look at the picture!!! its the xmas pressies i got for my dept! hahaha.. cute huh? funny messages.... on those toilet signs... kekeke.. but its not that big lah.. its for the desk 1.. and i specially chose the messages directed at specific people.

My fave is for Ali... which says :Caution coz i am the boss. thats why"

So coool huh???

what interesting pressies i got for my lucky colleagues! but i havent receive anything interesting yet.. sigh... why cant there be more interesting people (like me) on this planet?

These few days... i realised.... human are such selfish beings..... including some of my friends...

"it is always me! about me! everything is about me! "

Do u realise that when u r talking to some1, u are always talking about yourself?

Sometimes its quite frustrating.. why is every1 so self centred? do u have to only talk about urself? what u do? what u achieve?

sickening... when im in good mood, i will entertain u lah

if im not in a pretty mood, i will ignore everything u say! hahaha the more u wanna discuss with me, the more i dont talk! hehehe

Pls go read Dale Carniege( or dunno what is his name)... and u would have read that to make people like you, you need to be concerned about other people... if u r always self centred, in the end, nobody will like u!

pls lah.. u r in this world to bring joy to people.. not to bring agony to people! arrgghhh... why am i surrounded by such gugu people???!!!!

i think im too nice a person to accept all sort of nonsense from these people, thats why i attract all gugus. damn! i should learn to screw them upside down so that they wunt dare talk about themselves!!! but well... after so much good deeds on this earth.... i really think i wil go heaven and be angel next time. =)

leave me alone! i am having pms now!

stop raining!

it has been raining since sunday..
sigh.. i am startin to hate this rain and i cant wait for it to stop raining...
quite irritating the rain... dampen all my mood to do anything...

like im supposed to go buy xmas gifts, rom gift... but due to rain.. i cant move much

today... despite the rain, i went to orchard to go see... but the shop i wanna go is no more there! damn!!! and i was braving thru the wet wet days... and never manage to find anything nice! sigh.. i shd have juz come home and keep myself dry...

Was watching tv mobile juz now and was very shocked to see that some areas in sinagpore are flooded til abt waist level.... when the newflash.. i was stil thinking.. is it malaysia or indonesia...
ooh.. its actuALLY singapore!! amazing! thank god my area is not low lying.. else i cant imagine swimming my way to work......

next was the news of the dunno how many china tourist to arrive in singapore. damn lucky fella! i wish im the 100th or 1000th or 10000th singaporean to land in hk soon! $15k worth of goodies... damn damn.. do i have such luck??

next is a case abt some1 who steal people network and kena charged...
is it such a serious crime? oh.. im not doin it.. dun worry.. i have my own wireless , so why would i bother to go steal people network? im a law abiding citizen ok....
but seriously... i tink polis shd concentrate more on the more critical crimes.. not such minute crimes... it wunt kill.. it wunt harm any1.... why be so harsh on the poor boy? if polis is like so free, pls go capture those rapists, robbers, gangsters.. etc.. those who wil cause danger to other beings.. like myself....

wooo... seee.... i love sbs buses! they got tv mobile.. and made my bus trip so knowledge-filling!

damn... cha si lang lah!!!
as i am blogging now.. some siao kias are playing and shouting very loudly. mind u.. its 11pm now... what r their parents doing??? busy making love? these kids ought to be severely warned... sooo disturbing! and they shout like they are being raped! nex time if people really shout help for being raped.. how will i be able to differentiate? grrrrr

oh well.. the rain is making me cranky....

anyway... yesterday.... there was a big news......
my friend's company... some1 jumped down from her building. this is such a shocking and sad news....
what made him decide to jump down on a monday morning in office? it takes tremendous courage to jump down... and i really wonder what was going on in his mind when he took the step out? did he regret when he start to fall?
i think i wunt ever have the courage to jump down... yes.. maybe i will go upstairs.. but once i see the height... i think i will chicken out.... maybe if i wanna jump, my legs wunt allow me too (coz they had turned jelly).
Well.... my friend said maybe its due to depression..
never think lightly about depression.....
if u r depressed, and is my friend, feel free to come talk to me! i will help u.. well.. i would love to save ur life too! :)
if u have depressed friends, do pay attention to them... u dun wanna regret losing a friend...

请问爱情~by 张智成 ZChen

Yes, love is but a joke... you gotta be there at the right moment, right setting...
anything which is wrong... love will turn out to be a joke....
so near yet so far.....

what is love...?
When I reached the destination, will i see you? or only your shadow?

谁会为谁迷恋
你都如何分配
谁快乐谁伤悲
你用什么分类
想吻的嘴
为何只会无言以对
那甜蜜是想留给谁
难道我只能被安慰
就不能也让我成为那个谁

想请问爱情
你是疏忽还是存心
安排她来相遇却
又仅仅是相遇
想请问爱情
你是风景还是陷阱
如果我往前去
会是终于找到你或你的背影

谁该被谁拒绝
你都如何取决
谁幸福谁憔悴
你用什么判别
在她双眼为何只看见
视而不见
要不要干脆闭上眼
给我一片全然的黑
把今天丢给了时间去湮灭

是不是一定要听见
许多叹息你才肯偶尔
成全几次的美丽面对一颗像我这样疲惫的心
你会不会改变你的决定

Ben Yeo


I think this dude looks quite cute....

Hmm... saw him on tv.. and love his cheeky smile... but i guess.. the photographer not very good here... hehehe

After few minutes of internal discussion, i have decided to continue blogging in this entry so that i wunt have excessive posts... which may make my fans (Yes! I mean U, U and You!) dizzy....

well.. my poor mama is still diarhoeeing... Why doesnt she get well?????
She had taken the medicine that my aunt intro.. but still seeems to be diarhoeeing.. though it is getting better.....

well.. its like.. i will be goin next week... and its really kinda late to inform her now too... but at least.. its 1 week notice.. not that bad right?
and why am i so naughty not to tell her earlier?
coz shes a thinker! A very deep 1 in fact....
what i mean is she will imagine all the nasty scenarios.... like.. i will kena robbed.. i will fall down.. i will get lost... my plane wil crashed.... etc.. all kind of scenarios... and it really dampen my mood too...

unhappy

yes people.. i am Un Happy....
coz im like being whipped into a typhoon.. not knowing where it will end up in... and causing damages along the way....
yes.. im like lost? uncertain? not confident? all the kinds of feelings connected with UNhappiness...
hope guan yin will bless me with good luck!


talkin abt guan yin....
in the noon, i was chatting with a friend of a particular religion...
i was joking and saying i will go heaven next time ( iwas really juz joking and talking cock)
and she quickly said.. no.. i wunt.... only her *religion* will go heaven
i replied... no.. u go ur heaven.. i go my heaven
she said.. no.. theres only 1 heaven.. and only ppl her religion go heaven...
me: pls lah.. respect other religions mah

i was like boiling...

have people of that religion all lost their minds???
i feel like screwing her up and down and tell her to f off! but no.. shes still my good friend.. but i don think i will ever discuss religions stuff with her....

why r this group of people so narrow minded? cant they accept that there is other religions?

why r they so selfish? why do they think the rest of us wunt go heaven? and its like... they are SURE the rest of us would rot in hell...

pls... if u r kind hearted... u would want every1 to be well right?
what can u say abt a religion which condemn the non believers?

loser!!!!

argh!!!! now im really really disgusted with that religion... and everytime i hear them saying how mighty their god is... i feel like spitting on them!

F OFF U PRETENDERS!!!!!!

recently, a new worship place of that religion was built near my house.. and once in awhile, they will come my house to give me those bloody brochures and invite us to that place....
most recently, they came to my hse and said they have a open house.. and was urging my mama.... "its ok 1.. every1 can go......"

i feel like rushing out and say... "u all wanna come in??? hold the joss stick and bai my guan yin? its ok 1....."

its not ok! pls dun come my hse again!!!! i wunt ever step in that place and get my brain washed by the stories.....
i am still very wide awake person.... and i am happy enough not to be misled by the tall tales which promise will get rid of the problems.

yawn! just go away!

tv lover

Its Monday again... and i am so glad to be back in my sofa, planted in front of tv.. hehe.. this is... LIFE!

Today.... quite a peaceful day... coz ali is not in office! and mikey went off at lunchtime... and they wunt be back til Friday! Yahooooo!!! freeeeedomm!!!! but then.. i got things to do lah....

In the morning, AK came... and he gave me something! erm.. its a clipboard he bought from the hotel lah... whats his reason for giving me that? I dont know...
he said he bought 2.. so he gave me 1......


then... lunchtime.. this tarzan came and asked me if i wanna lunch? Ok.... of coz! its been long since i have lunch with them...
as usual.. this tarzan commanded me to MOVE! And i was taking my wallet, he was like asking me why i havent go...
i shoot him: i take my wallet mah.. u wanna chia me isit? if so, i dun bring my wallet liao
hehee...
today im quite cock with them.... guess im more comfy with them now.. hehehe

in the lift, this tarzan asked me what brand is my watch.. and how much.. weird.. today he asked me alot of qn....
anyway, only 3 of us went for lunch.. tarzan , ak and me
then tis tarzan suddenly ask me.... u find ak very flirtateous? he very flirt 1 u know!
i act blur and said.. no.. i dunno... dunno him well..... hehee
ya.. i know his tongue is honeyed...

then tis tarzan asked me.. what i do for weekend... Sat and Sun... he wanna know all my schedule... but accidentally i let him discovered im a no life person. hehe
n hes really 12 years older than me!!! and at 1st asked me.... am i below 25?
i looked at him with my shocked big eyes and was like saying.. how can i be below 25?

when tarzan is in good mood, talking and laughing, he looked much cuter... rather than when he is saying
" i got no time!"

treasure lifes

I think.. most probably... i will go to heaven next time...
Yesterday was at my aunt house... then this cockroach appeared! And i was like using some paper to shoo it away.....

my mama then hinted to my cousin to go catch it.....
well.. he tried to.. but the cockroach slipped away

then my mama told him... i dun even kill ants. when i see ants.. i wil just let them go...

abit paisay to let him know that... for i am such a saint!

who on this earth cares for the irritating ants? only me......
they have every right to live as well... and think their lifespan is quite short, so i dun wanna shortened it further. they are faced with the issue of survival very frequently.... and everytime i see them struggling to stay alive (when i used to drown them.. hehe...), i pitied them....

how will we feel if there is a superior being who is constantly tryin to kill us?

I say.. we should just let the ants live their lifes......

I dun believe in taking away any kind of lifes.. sometimes i see my mama whack cockroaches or lizards... i pitied them... and in my heart, i prayed that they will recarnate to a better being.... and i always tell guan yin that my mama dun enjoy killing them.. juz that shes doin that to protect me....
killing is bad..... and there will be retribution... so fellow mates... lets reduce our killings ok?

the only being i have no issues killing is.. mosquitos.. hahaha.. for they suck my blood.....
if they dun disturb me.. i would not have slap them everytime i see them.....

oh well.... amitofo..........

p/s: but i am not a vegetarian

Support the real singer... ZChen

My poor ZChen...
I had just finished reading reports and interviews with my z... i wish i can give him a hug now.....

The 1st article... he said... by August nex year, if he have not release his new album, he will go back Msia....

<<明年8月前若沒片可發 張智成要回大馬>>

張智成和華研唱片約滿後,轉往中廣音樂網Wave Radio「愛簡單」擔任DJ,上月才拿到新工作證的他透露:「明年8月之前,如果沒有唱片公司找我發片,就會回馬來西亞。」

發行「愛情樹」時,張智成多次被爆有「大頭症」,他忍不住喊冤:「我不懂什麼叫大頭症,作音樂原本就應該要有自己的想法,我意見很多,但不過分。」

合約到期後,張智成收入立刻短少,他說可以靠吃泡麵、做蘋果沙拉給自己吃。「我生活簡樸,不需要花太多錢。」

由於每個月必須支出在馬來西亞的房貸、台灣的房租、保險和生活費,張智成笑說:「當然會不夠,只好吃老本,不過以前唱校園還要被公司抽一半,現在全都是自己的。」首次嘗試DJ工作,他笑說:「圓了小時候的夢想。」


Next is a heart wrenching interview... a very up close and personal interview. in the interview, he broke down and cry for a whole 10 min.... which stars will actually cry for so long? imagine the pain and suffering that he has gone through?
Think about it, he went all the way from Msia to Taiwan for his passion in music... he alone in a foreign land, struggling to be accepted by the taiwanese market. at 1st, his results was quite good... but recently, he is faced with some issues. Guess due to his stubborness and his idealistic music scene, he is unable to accept those teeny poppers songs which is not his style. To a music person like him, ask him to sing those marketable (but yucky) songs is beyond him..
And he is a very real and direct person. In the course, I guess he must have offended his ex company (HIM) people, hence he was put in the fridge for some times...
Maybe to HIM, he is not profitable enough... as opposed to the highly profitable SHE....
Anyway, now i hate this HIM alot! an unfeeling company! I hope they will close down soon! soulness company!Pls dun ever mention that HIM is a music company. It is juz a money minded business organisation!

My zchen had it the hard way.... he got such a great voice.. and i think he deserved better treatment. IS every1 deaf???? or u all simply have such bad taste????

There was a part in the interview which he talked abt his past. He came from a poor company. He is the 1st graduate from his kampong. Look at this shiny guy who worked his way up. His family doesnt approve him singing... but his passion for singing outweigh everything. He even borrowed money from his friends to give his parents.

My poor zchen..... I really wished him all the very very best! Every1... pls help to support my Zchen! read on and understand more abt him...

<<张智成 没有安全感>>
2006/12/10 11:50:22
张智成,一把好声音的象征。

但是彭学斌说,他可以是一位很好的歌手,但是个性无法当一个很好艺人。于是,他的固执让他处处碰壁,弄得一身是伤,依然学不乖。

在异乡打拼的日子,从以前的风光到现在的低潮,他一直都适应不良……再见到张智成的时候,他已经是一名台湾电台的DJ了,至于歌手的身分,随着与唱片公司的合约结束,也暂时放下。智成在广播室里接受嘉贤的访问,青色的外套,头发剪短了,他看起来瘦了,也憔悴不少。提起他最近一次在大马推出《快乐》专辑,那时长期逗留在马来西亚宣传,也为Astro主持音乐节目《智成一格》,歌唱事业中心感觉突然移回大马,大家开始质疑,张智成是不是不行了?
他有点尴尬,支支吾吾地说:“我也不知道什么叫作不行,之前推出的精选集,销量都很不错,可能还没有达到一线的销量成绩,我就跟公司说我要维持,但是,维持现状不是公司要的,公司要的是赚钱!”

难道张智成不是赚钱的歌手?当时属于华研唱片公司的张智成,同门的还有动力火车、JS兄妹组合、师妹阿桑,还有就是公认为唱片公司的摇钱树——台湾女子天团S.H.E。有传言曾指,唱片公司砸下重金卯足全力拼S.H.E,公司的预算大部分都给了她们,如此一来,张智成被冷落看似“顺理成章”。

好友兼经理人彭学斌点出一个关键,他说:“智成的声音可以是很好的歌手,可是个性没办法成为很好的艺人。”学斌也说,智成跟其他人合作没有那么愉快,因为他是一个没有安全感的人,他不相信别人。与智成合作过的台湾音乐人黄韵玲也有同感:“其实他一直很好,但是总是要求这样不够、那样不够……他是金牛座,牛脾气、太固执,没有安全感,太保守、太稳定,他不容易尝试新东西,总是顾虑太多。我真的希望,他可以很开心地唱歌……”

另一个镜头的智成说:“我在想,是不是我要求太高?我的个性,其实我很清楚,对!我承认我不会做人!我曾害怕到不敢出门,那时回马做《快乐》专辑时,情绪很糟糕,音乐会时发脾气……”

智成在音乐会的最后,说了一句很悲的话:“我不知道以后,还有没有机会唱歌……”
“那时到中国去宣传,心里就想着要放弃,不想唱了,想着回台湾收拾东西就走,想了很多……哇,讲到这里想哭……”

智成开始哽咽。他眼眶红了,泪水已经无法控制地流下。
“没事没事,喝水,呼……讲不下去了,对不起,我没有想到会哭,死定了,哎……”

智成趴在桌子上,情绪完全崩溃,不停地在哭……
他抬起头来,吃力地说着:“没有人知道……我撑不下去,好像我做什么都是错的……就觉得很可惜……”
他又说不下去了。主持人嘉贤也乱了阵脚,拉着智成的手不断地道歉、安慰。

嘉贤的后记:太委

屈本来《星语触动》的计划都是每一位嘉宾一集,可是智成的访问,我坚持要分为两集。在上集里,智成哭了,他哭了10分钟之久,我从来没有访问过一位嘉宾,情绪是完全失控的。从访问中,我感受到他内心的挣扎,如果只是剪接成一集,大部分都是他在哭而已,这样会让人觉得他好像只会抱怨,我觉得需要保护他的故事,尊重智成,也对他公平一些。

与智成做访问是一件很难的事,我们是10年的朋友了,他好多事我都知道,如果还要去提问,这就显得很刻意。
不变的是,他一直以来都是一个人前嬉皮笑脸,人后却不想让人知道他内心世界的人,他没有安全感,他太保护自己,要聊到他内心世界是很难的事。

这是我第一次看他哭得这么厉害,所以也吓到愣住了,根本就不知道该做些什么,安慰了还是一样。
他哭了大概10分钟都无法停止,摄影也拍不下去,访问根本无法进行。

其实他是一个很顾形象的人,他哭的时候还是趴在桌子上的,不然就是遮遮掩掩,他一直要让人家觉得他是王子,这次在镜头前崩溃,他心里一方面挣扎,其实更大成分是累积了太多的委屈。

经过这次访问的坦诚,到后来,我觉得他坦然了许多。其实,他就是那个打死都不肯让我们去他家拍摄的歌手,他想很多,担心住家曝光被人说:啊?智成的家这么小的?什么什么的,可是到访问的最后,他好像豁出去了,决定让我们去他家拍摄了,也许他认为,心中的秘密与委屈都已掏空,让人窥探自己的住所已经不算什么了。

他从来不是一个幸运的人……

张智成小时候家里清寒,一家人住在橡胶园里,父母是胶工,一家6兄弟姐妹,睡在同一间房里。爸爸妈妈因为歌唱比赛而相识,哥哥也生得一副好嗓子,最拿手的是唱费玉清的歌曲。自小家境贫穷的智成,凭着自己的努力,成了村子里第一个考上大学的孩子,毕业后顺利地当上机械维修工程师,可是他始终清楚,其实最爱的依然是唱歌。

因为爱唱歌,他参加了海螺新韵奖,也到民歌餐厅驻唱。“酬劳很低,根本就不是为了钱而唱嘛!车子停在对面的停车场,一个晚上二十几块,我很爱唱,有时唱到不想下台,那个停车费还高过那一天的收入。”

智成凭着《声音》获得娱协奖的肯定,感觉离歌手的梦想越来越近,后来当网络歌手,唱了一首R&B曲风的《不夜城》,开启了他“R&B小王子”之路。

“当时马来西亚没有人做R&B,我也不会唱,他们说,你的音就转啦!转啦!转啦!就是乱唱,但是出来之后反应很好,对我来说是一种安慰。那时就笃定当歌手,因为我已经辞掉工作(机械维修工程师)。”

《不夜城》得了娱协奖后,但是才过一阵子,网络公司就倒闭,智成失望得很,想回去当工程师,过着朝九晚五的生活,彭学斌不认命,答应智成在半年之内帮他找唱片公司。

那段日子,两人过得很苦,彭学斌只够养活自己的薪水,还要分一半出来给智成,为了生活费,智成偶尔接下在超级市场、酒廊和校园演唱,有一场没一场地唱。家人的不谅解,让智成很难受,没有钱的日子,智成还坚持给家用,但是都是跟朋友借来的。

彭学斌说:“我们坚持,只是因为我们都有一个很笨的直觉,我们一定会成功!”不到半年时间,智成如愿以偿地和唱片公司签约,接着便安排智成到台湾发片。

回忆起智成一步一脚印地走过来,一直陪在他身边的彭学斌感慨地说:“智成到台湾发片,对我来说是一个结束,他后来的成绩不重要,因为我已经很开心,我相信的东西,被人看到了……”

So Far Away

So Far Away - 张智成/陈绮萱》
作词:陈忠义
作曲:陈忠义
女声:陈绮萱

忽然间 我们被沉默包围
有种感觉无法形容但很美
一瞬间 忘了爱曾让我心碎
这默契取代不安的氛围
让我勇敢爱不后退

So Far Away
一路寻觅多少回爱
最后不知所为身边
仍然是空位
So Far Away
受的伤究竟为谁
过去在心中积累谁体会
原来身边就是你
原来一直都是你
Not Far Away

猜想你 此刻心里想着谁
你总微笑甩甩头发让风吹
你是谁 带走夜里的漆黑
留下一整绽的星空
让我沉醉才明白幸福并不远

曾经梦想完美的爱情
其实并不存在
当我看着你灵魂揭晓答案

faithful me

Come to think about it, I have been blogging faithfully for 1 year plus….. such a faithful blogger I am eh?

I enjoyed bloggin… it’s an alternative to writing a diary. Yes, when I was young, I used to write diary to record those eventful days… the days which I want to remember. But its quite troublesome to write…. But blogging is much more convenient… but then.. its not that private… hence I cant blog abt my most intimate secrets… hehee… else kpo people like u will poke ur nose in my business….
Hehe.. not that im selfish. But I just dun wan every1 to know my problems….. thanks for ur concern anyway…

Its good to blog.. to let out all… most I mean of your emotions and all… usually I will feel good after blogging…. And I can always look back at my past entries and reminscind on the good old days…. If only bloggin was invented earlier…

Hmm.. what am I talking about? Promoting blogging???
I also don’t know.. I only know.. im damn bored now….
I cant wait to go home……

We went at 12pm.
Ximen: ooh… ur xmas lunch really very early hor?

Here is a few jokes ….
Old man: do you all know stevie wonder?
We: yes
Om: have u seen his wife?
We: no…….
Om: hmmm.. but its ok.. he hasn’t seen her before too.

brainless me?

Yesterday b4 I go home, I seem to have a lot of things to blog…
When I got home, and logged on to my account, I don’t seems to have anything to blog…. My mind went blank.
Why is my memory failing so badly? Is it a sign of premature aging?
My memory is really bad recently. I can ask a question on msn, n shut down the window. Then my friend reply me.. and I totally clueless about what he is talking about. It happened several times, and its scary. I tried to recall the question, but usually I cant remember…
Recently… I have been having migraine attacks at nite. Quite frequently….
Is it a sign that my brain is not working well anymore?

Well… anyway.. ok… I think I wanna blog abt the mrt accident. Yesterday, some1 got hit by the mrt in the morning. And well… it’s the 1st time that I got affected by it. Though its at yishun station, my train station was packed… and every train which came is full of sardines…. How on earth am I goin to get on? And also, the frequency is longer… geez.. I was really angry….. I wanna to scold.. “what the fish” aloud.. but I decided not to, as it would have spoiled my image. Who knows, I may have a secret admirer lurking in bt batok mrt? U never know ok….:P

After 2 trains, I made up my mind. Get out of the freaking mrt and go take a bus! Went to the control st to ask how can I get out without having to pay any $? Coz I did not use the mrt what…..
Well.. the counter was underhand… and kept me waiting for sometimes.. I wanted to flare… but then…. The angel came into my mind and said
“ its not the poor staff fault that this is happening. Don’t vent your anger on innocent live.”
Ok.. eventually the staff told me I can get refund 3 days later. Just mentioned “the yishun accident” and the staff will know.. hahaha…

Something really needs to be done. So many lives have been takened by the mrt. What is the preventive measure that smrt should take? Maybe they should impose a hefty fine on the family of the deceased…. Ok.. im being cruel….
I just hope nobody will die in mrt again.. it’s a painful death… why so silly?

Yesterday, I finally met my bestmate! Well, you may ask… whats so special abt meeting a best”friend”? the special part is we have been corresponding for abt 2 years, and we never meet b4…hence yesterday, we finally meet! Haha ! we have been talking so much yet I never have a single idea about his look coz apparently, he is camera shy… oh well….
He gave me a starbucks cup which cost him.. cough cough... $60! and i got the cup from him so that he wouldnt be reminded of his foolishness..... hehe
But its good meeting up with him! Hello bestmate!

I really wanna scold all the bad words. i cant believe i fell down twice at the same spot. Hence ever since then, i have toilet phobia.. i wunt be visiting that toilet for 1 week i think.... have to go to far far away toilet. but at least, i wunt fall down... god bless me....

Ok.. finally got the "surprise" from AK... well... boring surprise.. its juz an angkot teeshirt lah.. chey.... i tot its a diamond ring or a piece of gold coin.. chey...... But ok lah.. its the thought that counts rite?

Then mikey was like " how come jane muz help u answer phonecalls one?"

Today mikey was quite funny... he kept winking at me.... and its those exaggerated wink.. wahahaha...
then at 1 point of time, he like those 38 woman, grabbed tarzan and said softly "she got killer look". I was like...huh?? do i look very fierce????? i tot i got the kindest face in Singapore and JB!? Maybe I heard wrongly.
Then he continued to say something like her look can kill.....
then this tarzan looked at him.. and looked at me.. and said..... ya.... BUT......

But... my hands are full already....
