heeh.. miss indo...

hmm.. just thinkin how long it's been since i went back, was surfing around and marvelled at how kids back there spend their time

<--my cousin (before)







<--same person (after)





not that i have the hots for her or wad, i think she's damn irritating.. only like 2 months younger than me but keep calling me kor and acting like kid. heheh. Hope she wun read. Doubt she understands english anw. Yups, the point is, guess how much that cost...

not a lot really.. like, at most 20 bucks? i'm not reallly sure but if they go there like its a neoprint u knoe how life is there. thats their lifestyle manz, everyday after sch go shopping at mall, fren's hse, weekends go out, etc... enjoying life, unlike us haha..,.

geez... its gonna take long

hmm... currently have 70 bucks in my 'project fund'. And talking about funds and project, ima supposed to raise like 145 bucks for SC for a problem not of mine. And i have no idea how to do it. Or rather, i dun think i have the mood to do it.

Jeez.. 70 bucks... ima like.. 400 bucks away from this!!










not like i'll really buy THAT. besides its limited edition... jeez..
or.. more realistically im 200 bucks away from this...











haha... i think im not gonna get either of these.. feel inspired to get a fernandes cos apparently thats the brand that hide uses for concerts. Hmm.. but heard its not very durable... and quite ex.. haiz..

stupid post

i dun normally post criticising others but if i do then you know something is really wrong. never mind, i think i wasted my time on the previous post on aloada dumb people.

anw, common test over already and i feel bad if i pass any of those. I mean i know people who study for the whole month of june and still fail or scrape. I had one week taken by AB camp and one week to recover from AB camp, so my 2 weeks was spent playing away with only 3 days of studying (not for long) - so i'll be surprised if i pass, but wun neccessarily be happy cos i think its a cosmetic grade, not my real ability.

feels to me like i'm back in school for timed prac instead of CT.

anw some 38/05 people went to town just now to get prez for haw ling the phantom, (after the bell rings she's the first person to disappear and we never see her again until the next lesson.) haha, no nobody knew wad her tastes were like. so end up just got her this pillow-cum-massager which mark had weird ideas for. (sorry dude, i've outgrown that sorta stuff) and some earrings/hairbands, dunno wad else.

and we went to watch just my luck. not a bad show lah.. entertaining and cos linsday lohan kinda look good =) but yea i suppose she had a boob job nose job eye job mouth job and a special-package body job or wad, but since humans are such cosmetic creatures what's the problem about a few MINOR modifications? maybe one day they can let people (girls only please) grow boobs instead of using silicone, which is. DISGUSTING! haha.

anw there was a massive gossip session during lunch, about one common topic and the tables 2 metres apart from each other. Not very nice to talk about it here, so i'd use code.

john had a girlfriend called jane. They were happy, or looked to be, until john left jane for er... katy. Ok katy had a rep of being a flirt, and coincidentally katy was supposedly already attached to another guy, eh... bob. For a grand total of four days. It was kinda sat actually, john was cheating on jane, and was on the phone with katy when bob called to confess his true feelings. She put him on conference phone, but bob never expected john to be in the conference call as well. So bob confessed, they got attached, 4 days later, john dumped jane, and we know the rest of the story.

fuck you bastard. I really pity jane even though i dun really like her lah. I feel for her. And some other gossips later i realised out of 10 of my frens who got attached in AJ, like 6 broke up? that's a mighty high casualty rate for 1 and a half years... and maybe, at this age we're not ready to handle a full relationship yet.. not ready to handle all the expectations and juggle all things at once. not ready to commit to a relationship of that nature... somehow, it makes me feel better that my case could not be completed... like u knoe u missed the flight but found out that the plane u missed got hijacked and crashed somewhere? its that kindofa feeling.

hmm...

it's weird. will it work?

we'll see. haha.

holidays on thurs and fri and next mon, thurs. really, its just comin back for timed prac. term 3 opens next next week.

go, run, hide, bitch, whine, moan, whatever

hmm.. stumbled upon i site i DID NOT like to see at all. actually its a blog, a dissident blog, that collates complaints from the worst losers on the planet and set up an aunty agony forum. or something like that

u knoe they compared AJ with cat high, and looked smth like this, actually it is this. School A is cat high and school B is u knoe whichever JC

well i'm not sure if they were ever from cat high but u got to realise lee hak boon, inspiring, hardworking, and even as much as i respect him, it's really foolish to spend out of your means. lets say you only got a hundred bucks a month, ur parents are overseas and left you no other money, would you go for luxuries?

well i was from cat high and indeed they do pull no punches in improving our study conditions. but doing this irresponsibly only puts pressure on the sch and its students, i mean, after spending so much the sch standard drop to 15 points? what the heck? and i clarify - when i left the school there was no such thing as wireless internet. And to clarify there are indeed plans in AJ to install wireless internet throughout the school. Even if i agree that it looks like its gonna fall apart any second, it WON'T. U haven't fucking went to prison yet so dun complain about the food.

i do agree sometimes teachers and admin really get me damn fucked up, and they make pretty bizzare decisions sometimes like re-painting the school and getting us to use our own paper for exams and asking us to do SDL even on topics where SDL is suicide. And from SC i do agree they reason in a very dumb manner sometimes like saying the rationale for not allowing food in LTs is cos people can choke on them.

but get this distinction right. If u dun like 0705's teachers, principal and admin, keep it to teachers, principals and admin. Dun fuck around and condemn everyone just cause u think u are better than everyone else. Let me tell you something, u've lived too young a life to go around thinking you are smart. Ever been to other JCs? Unis? or overseas to other schools? well ON TOP of studying (mugging as you would blindly put it) they are well disciplined talented and passionate individuals who care for society. (no its not the cat high pledge it's real) I dun expect this of singaporeans but what was said on that blog really disgusts me.

"Like many of you peeps, I never had much fun in 0705....

coz firstly, i was fr Arts, and having a less than competent arts teaching staff, we were often scorned and treated like third class citizens...quite weird actually coz my class was split into 3 grps for chinese lessons and my grp had to take with a Bio class. The teacher was quite horrid and she blatantly humiliate the arts students..but u noe wod, i kinda respect her coz she had the guts to say that she didnt like arts students and she didnt think much of us. In the end, when results came, the majority of the arts peeps got As and how did her pet class do? She was quite mad but she acknowledged she had to eat her words."

-----------------------------------

"0705 is so lousy
i would say it's the worst JC but it wouldn't be fair coz i do not know the other JCs too well
but at its present state, i cannot be sure it's a good JC

it sucks
firstly, many talk about the 0705 spirit
when councillors speak, or teachers speak, they always speak of the '0705 spirit'
it's non-existent
most students are more loyal to their sec.sch than to 0705
this can only be the fault of the school and nothing else

secondly, the people are plain stupid
most are intellectually challenged and have average results because they are hardworking
it's so hard to start an intellectual conversation with anyone

thirdly, the location is bad
when people want to go out, they will ask 'AMK? J8?'
fine, there is nothing anyone can do about it but i'll just kaobei
we're just so detached from orchard

fourthly, 0705 people are too cheena
speaking only chinese is not going to bring anyone any good
do try to speak more English
i just can't stand it when i talk in english and people reply in chinese
i mean, which school were they from?
chinese high, english low?

lastly, look at our Students' Council
what are they doing?
they are not doing anything at all
people should take a look at the other JCs' SCs and observe and compare, instead of being bochup about everything
i hope the J1s choose a better council

in case u're wondering, i'm a J2 so i know what i'm talking about"

-----------------------------------

well, it's really amusing how a self-professed j2 can be so immature in thought. U always think the grass is greener on the other side, but when u get there u realise it's not so green after all. If u dun learn to be content with what you have you'll never be content. And if u think SC really do not do anything, u must really be blind, to extremes. U think wad, we slog full time to please fat senseless arses like you arh? SC are students too and we do what we can, from small little stuff to big events. I'm sorry u dun care, but dun assume that becos u dun see it it doesnt exist.

and yea i know people from SC in other JC. Much better? when they come HERE and look, they think we're doing a great job. Really, it's the perspective of the viewer. U think u so smart, try being in council. Very very stupid person who wrote this. Location bad? eat where, amk, j8? well you don't fucking own the place so u wun benefit if they build a new shenton way in yio chu kang, so be glad it's not in the middle of some factories with low chimneys. I mean, "we're so detached from orchard?" if AJ is located in orchard i'd be happy of course cos it means i can WALK home and never be late for school (For the record i've never been late) but as of now the NEAREST school to orchard is SMU. So u like orchard that much, think u very smart, think we're too dumb for someone of your "calibre" go SMU and see if they take u in anot. thru wads of cash maybe u'd get in but you're just a poser.

and the line about not having intellectually able individual, if u think u are intellectual in fact you are not. No true intellectual will dabble on whether he is smart or not. Smart means you get As? smart means u can do math the fastest? that's what i thought too, when i was primary 3. So dude, for a j2, if u dun grow up u're gonna get pawned in life man, mark my words.

though i agree with the first one, arts dept is really like a sch within a sch. we dun get respect from a lot of people. Which is dumb actually cos we're 0705 and not 0705science and 0705arts. we dun have two sch songs or two sch flags. So the stick can be unfair sometimes.. like them spending millions on science research and being very stingy to history field trips et cetera.

dude, grow up, for real.

i have come to the ultimate conclusion:

i'm gonna fail maths tommorow.

probabilty of me failing maths= 0.99
probablity of my script being changed with someone else's, say, hanisah's=0.01

gee. my odds look slim =(
never mind, i din expect to pass in the first place...
history tmr also... im damn scared the weird questions come out.. this CT is like damn screwed ba.. nvr study at all. guess if i fail i deserve it haha...

ok, at least i have confidence in ECONS! i studied R.O.G. and fgn trade for 2 days, quite productive bah... lets hope it can be reciprocated positively.

i have decided, i shall save up every week.
to get an electic =D

orrite... i dunno what the hell it means, but this song lifts my mood =)
pity hide had to die young...

anw. i think my mid years have been wasted. u knoe, gone... i have no confidence for maths and today's GP was well.. off form? haha.. no fluency in my own writing.. rusty i guess.. never mind, mid-years is already fated to flunk. haha... but i'm at least happy with the rest i got during the mid years, now i'm fresher and hungrier for better success... yups. that sms really lifted my mood as well, loadoffmychest.

though that doesn't mean i'll be able to take in what i see calmly, so i better not see.

my FM team is kinda wasted too.. i created a new team with editor.. and wolah.. halfway thru season 8 key first team players injured with long term injury... manz... and i din give that club many players to begin with. Maybe the game's telling me to study? haha...

and it's kinda scary. England sucks, we all knoe that, they always play badly.
what happens if they (ever) play well?

hmm. nah. i worry unduly, england sucks after all.

di-dum, hi-ho

i think my mid years is gone, haha... maths tmr, sure die.. later TRY to memorise some formulas and remember how to do stats. history also must revise a bit bah...

anw, was looking ard youtube and found some funny stuff...



this is made up of 3 clips... #1 is they visit yoshiki's house... maybe cos they're starting out thats why the house looks so shite from the outside, but i think the guy got a nice cosy place... #2 is some athelatic meet where he accidentaly poke people with his spiky hair.. haha. #3 really cracked me out.. reminds me of the hard gay challenge which challenged a grp of guys to not laugh with hard gay doing all the *gay* stuff in front of them.. anw they apparently went to some restaurant and set up a 'live' band performance... damn funny, the place so cramped and they squeeze everything inside, incl drum set, taiji pata hide and toshi terrorising the students eating there.. i think it's staged bah, like a challenge.. toshi damn funny no matter what he try to do none of the students paid attention to him haha. If me i'd ask for autograph then continue eating.

and i really think it's such a waste for hide to die.. i mean, it sounds hard enough already, but look at this



i think this guy is quite good already but he's lagging behind hide (or pata or both) like by half a second. That's a shitloadofadifference.

freedom might be a fallacy

Seeing beyond the bars, not being beyond the bars

The lilting strains of the songbirds drifted merrily in the morning air, dancing in and out of the trees that were standing nearby, weaving its way tantalisingly around the neighbourhood. Yet amid the chirping voices that fought to compete with one another, a single voice stood out from the rest.

This was bird was not particularly special, it didn’t have a wonderful set of rainbow-kissed feathers, it wasn’t bred in an exotic country and it surely wasn’t the best singer around. It was slightly scruffy around the feathers, mostly white in colour, with a few blue feathers straining to find their place among its fluffiness. But what made it so special, was partially the fact that it was sitting trustingly on the hand of its owner, and singing. It didn’t sing because it was born to do so, but it sang because it was glad to do so. And that made all the difference.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Settled back into her own cage and left to dangle amongst the rest of the songbirds, the little blue bird chirped a cheerful greeting to her friends around her.

“Heya, Good morning everyone! I haven’t seen you all in some time…so how are you all doing?”

Tilting her head to view the birds around her, she was pleased to hear a chorus of replies. The sea of concern and cheer was parted though, when an impulsive bitter voice cut through the hallmark greetings.

“Blue, my foolish friend, did the absence knock all the feathers out of your head?!? That was freedom just within your grasp and you just let it go like that…Do you know how hard it is for any of us birds to get a chance to get out of our cages untied up? You should have just FLOWN AWAY!”

The red bird fluttered around in restless anger, beating his hard-tipped crimson feathers against the bars of the cage, as he was wont to do.

The little blue bird sighed inwardly to herself, but patiently tilted her head to one side as she looked squarely at the red bird. She was once like that, wanting to stretch her wings past the narrow bars of her cage, seeking the idealistic concept of freedom out of her cage. But she knew differently now, experience had taken care of that.

“Red…what is freedom?”

“Well, foolish Blue, freedom is being out of this cage. Freedom is being able to stretch my wings and soar in the blue skies above. Freedom is not having to sing for my birdseed, not having to pander to those humans who keep us in cages. Well, simply put Blue, freedom is being free, from all restrains and from all these bars.”

The little blue bird lifted her left wing and stretched out its tip for the red bird to see. It was scarred at the tips and new feathers were still trying to cover up the closed wound.

“That is hardly freedom Red. When there are no constraints, things get pretty scary in the real world.”

Gesturing with her other wing towards the dully coloured sparrows that hopped around in the trees nearby, she continued.

“Do you know what your idea of freedom entails? It means having to fight to find food and water every day. It means desperately searching for shelter every time a storm starts spreading in the sky. It means having to watch your back at every moment for things that will be out there to harm you. That freedom is a lonely thing, fighting for survival often is.”

The little blue bird said the last line rather solemnly, in the tones of one who had experienced it and was thankful to be alive. Gazing into the blue skies above her, she whistled a little ditty to herself. A small sad smile crept into her eyes, as she haltingly spoke to a much sobered Red.

“The restrains and boundaries that my owner sets for me is what truly makes me free. Freedom is not in the skies above, freedom is right here in my little cage. By putting me in a cage, he has set me free from the fear of things that could harm me. By giving me birdseed at times of the day, he has set me free from having to fear starvation. ”

“And…”, paradoxically, a sly feline grin sprung into her voice, “By taking care of me, he has set me free from having to care for myself”.

The tension in the atmosphere was drowned in the mirthful laughter that followed. Yet despite of the cheer of the laughter, a more solemn sober mood prevailed.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

It became a talking point among that group of old friends, one amazing incident that no one could quite believe happened, or could quite understand.

As they would all recall to themselves in a smattering of Hokien, Mandarin, Malay and English, over Kopi-O and Teh-si at a coffee shop, their birds went silent.

They would tell stories about how the little blue bird had sung along to the rest of the birds, as though telling them a story. About how after a clattering of noise, all the birds went eerily silent, as though contemplating something. And most importantly, about how on that day, each of the songbirds sang more sweetly than they ever had, with the melody serenading the neighbourhood.

A weathered old man would sit in a corner during these discussions, with a gentle smile on his face. He had a feeling that he knew what had went on.

got this from *somewhere*. Find it quite... eh... true lah... i mean i'm damn eager to stop schooling and go work cause i find schooling really retarded, but i mean.. i'll never know. Maybe in future i'd say things like, i rather go back to school, life's better there.

But i'm gonna look ahead positively, wun look back and long for what i've already abandoned. Yeps.

and qixiang, dun worry.

Anw, i listen to the song on my blog again, and must say it's very nice.. especially toshi's vocals. Forever love is considered yoshiki's "ultimate love song" though i think being so emo it's more of a sad song.... nevertheless beautiful i think..

one of these days i surfed around and found his cult's webbie, and downloaded one of the songs.. they were so... peaceful? haha.. i mean if a group says things like dun hate everyone, hate is fabricated.. it's not really a cult right? A philosophy maybe? yeap... and we dun know what these stars are in real life so we dun knoe if they are nice people anot. Maybe instead of joining a cult and becoming worse off he actually achieved peace within his heart? maybe the lyrics of X really bothers him so much?

we'll never know. But shall enjoy the song nevertheless...

omg! Kurenai english version!

OMG! just finished the 3 gigabyte download of X japan discography... and its kinda surprising that there are so many versions of one song all titled the same thing... though much of the 3gb was waste space cos the recording quality was poor... like some live concerts which u can barely hear anything...

though some are nice, like the one which shud be playing once u step into this site.. forever love all in guitar! yeah so far i know how to play until the chorous there then i dunno already... but got school le, damn sian...

things from back then were so much better

just realised... its easier to find works of someone who has died 300 years ago than to find works of someone who died 10 years ago. was surfing the net trying to find hide's songs without much luck.. until came across this site off which i downloaded quite a few. hahas..

and i'm also DLing the whole X-japan release including demo tapes and live performances pre-1988. some of the songs are done already, though must admit the technology then must be quite primitive cos the recordings sound very VERY monotone. And a lot of noise as well...

yup, if only i lived in the past, wun have to face all the study stress and everything, more time to pursue my passions and et cetera. I mean what has acing maths has to do with life? nothing really...

i have more or less conceded my mid years. Just hoping to pass everything but maths... which no matter how i look at it its a subject i really hate, though really handling things so much better now.. last time, i'd kill you.
back then,

on the verge of destruction

you know, its pretty amazing how colossal things in this world crumble so friggin quickly, i mean look at the berlin wall, been there for decades but downed in a day. USSR also, downed in a matter of months.

And i'm amazed at how IT's crumbled this quickly, after all the "bonds" took a long time to be forged.
And i'm equally amazed at how lightly i am taking it

classical X Japan

man what is yoshiki doing... must say its nice and impressive but... err...

http://www.cswnet.com/~cflinn/kidspages/ff8/Eternal-Melody.ZIP

sounds spooky. haha. Amethyst sounds familiar, shud be the track they played during the intro for Dahlia tour and last live...

funny but pointless shit: soccer vs football

World cup 2006 is now well underway, and I must say that I’m surprised to see such a fine effort from the USA against Italy earlier today. In my humble opinion, the US deserved a win for the spirit they showed, but the heat and the pace all seemed to weigh down on them in the end, and they seemed content to defend and settle for a draw.

Now, the reason I am surprised is that football is a minority sport in the States. I frequently see comments such as ‘soccer is gay’ and so on from an ignorant section of our American friends. It seems that most sports fans in America prefer a game that evolved from the British - largely upper class - game of rugby… and they have decided to strap on loads of padding, change the name of our game and insist that our sport is for girls. This grates a little with those who follow the majority sport in the world, and is another sign that certain (unfortunately vocal) Americans are arrogant… and downright fucking rude.

Let’s not forget Baseball, another evolution from a British game called ‘Rounders’. Rounders is (and has been for a long time) largely a girl’s game in the UK… normally played only by children.

Now, I don’t want to piss all over your favourite pastimes… but enough is enough. Why do you have to be so ignorant of the rest of the world? Does it make you feel proud being so clueless and to act so superior all the time?

Harsh words against the rest of the world from these self-styled ‘patriots’ smack of nothing more than a severe inferiority complex… and extreme stupidity.

In a similarly inflammatory gesture back atchya, I suggest that you change the name of your ‘football’ back to rugby, grow some balls and take off the body armour. Seriously… it’s sooo gay.

The reason we’ve called it a football for the last half-millennia or so is that it’s a sphere that you kick (a foot-ball). Forgive my confusion, but how does Football relate to running around with an oval object under your arm and taking breaks every few minutes?

Shakespeare’s A Comedy of Errors (Act II Scene 1):


Am I so round with you as you with me,
That like a football you do spurn me thus?
You spurn me hence, and he will spurn me hither:
If I last in this service, you must case me in leather.



"Spurn" literally means to kick away, thus implying that the game involved kicking a ball between players.

Shakespeare was around before the ancestor of American football was conceived. Football was around way before Shakespeare.

So forgive me. I’ve had a little wine (I know, how gay) and I’m just venting in response to years of provocation. I consider the US to be one of the closest countries to my own, even though the Atlantic divides us. I was rooting for the US tonight because:

A: They showed heart and

B: I can’t wait until this cultural divide is gone. It will happen, but it’ll take time and hard work from America’s football players to generate interest from their success.

And believe me... one day, when football takes over, your game of boring-ass padded rugby will be seen for what it is.

amazing how people can quarrel over thousands of posts over such a small matter ...
http://www.shoutwire.com/comments/16612/Stop_Calling_It_Soccer

in my opinion, let the yankees call it whatever they want, to us its still football and the NFL stuff is AMERICAN football. Yea maybe someday we have indonesian football (prolly same rules except there are no rules haha)...

anyways, glad i stayed up for the match yest, Brazil was great, fat Ronaldo scored 2!!! yups, initially i was rooting for japan cos they looked pro and capable of keeping brazil out especially kawaguchi, who is now one of my idols! (shall tweak him in FM and put him in my team) kawaguchi was like buffon in the first half, until ronaldo struck, which wasn't really his fault.. damn sad for him that juninho's 30m strike went in, on any other day he would have kept it out, but i guess juninho put in a cracker.

haha.. also quite sad czech and US who went out, czech were good but unlucky, and yet again they got a fella sent off! US showed a lot a lot of fighting spirit in all games, and got some leet players. They're not ranked that high for nothing. But i guess italy was just better, as was Ghana, who have proven to be dark horse!

and i'm gonna tease my friend who claimed to me that japan will beat brazil.

Tunggu, sejenak aku di situ
Jalanku, jalan menemukanmu

Tak bisakah kau menungguku

Menemani dalam hidupku

silent jealousy

hmm. can't seem to get the video to load. too big maybe? hahah. last resort is youtube, but manz, dowan lah...

so gotta settle for second best. Pls get real player if u cant hear the song and wanna hear it.. yeps.

wow i can't believe i skipped world cup matches yesterday. Tried cathing the argentina game, but was so sleepy i gave in to my pillow.

yeaps....


I'm looking for you
Trying to reach your roses
Carried away by the time

Seijaku no kyouki ni katame o
tsubusareta mama

You've gone away
From the stage
Leaving no words
There's just fake tears left

itsuwari no shinju de kazatta
bara no hanataba o sagasu

I'm blind insane
In the red of silence
Now I've lost your love

genkaku no ai ni kawareta ayatsuri ningyo

Get me on my feet
Get me back to myself
Pretend you love me

yubisaki made shinku ni somatta
ore o mitsumete

Mou taekirenai kodoku no serenade
kyozou no umi ni nagashite
yume kara sameta chimamire no tenshi o
mune ni daitemo
I can not stop

Silent Jealousy
Don't you leave me alone
kanashimi ni midarete
modorenai ai o kazaru
kurikaesu kodoku no naka ni

Tell me true doko ni yukeba
kurushimi o aiseru
I still want your love ai o tomete
kurui saku kioku o keshite

what happens when all the animals double-cross each other?
the ship sinks.

don't read too much into everything

got a big laugh when my primary sch fren asked me who i was jealous of [note the blog title, silent jealousy] well. let's just say i'm beginning to be quite a promoter of X japan, sharing all that i have with frens. And i think this is a good song, and i am trying to embed the video in my site in a way that wun lag. So im finding a server to host the big big file so i can let people enjoy X japan as well.

i'm not jealous of anyone, i have no reason to be.

haha.

i think i'm relatively done for. My maths is an automatic 'F' unless i do drastic action (like skipping world cup matches) and i need some revision to pass econs and history.

study session at chee yao's house. Never a study session whenever there's a PS2 around! winning eleven... lets see... i suck against coms but i guess the situation changes when i play humans. hahahahaha. ok now i just installed CS. Someone put a grenade in my room.

france DREW! damn. stupid match korea was clearly better, france can't play well after euro 2000... the coach quite tu-lan one. never mind... so much for being my fave team. anw was spending more time watching comemrcials which will never be allowed in singapore. the censorship board sure doesn't have a sense of humor, as does many parents who act conservative but do all sorts of things in the bedroom and out.



this one DAMN FUNNY! haha...



210 bucks for your life sure is cheap..



haha.. like it says, its really cosmetic only



err. dun change as and where you like.



smooth hair ain't that great. whoops.



err... nice ad but i dun think it worked. If they need to learn english they wun get the point anw.



sorry i'm lactose intolerant...



er. if u r a girl please never let me know if u do these.



the man got a gun, let him do what he wants :P



darlie needs to be more creative.



haha, so much for trusting your spouse



MY GAWD! never board a german ship.



numbers you should never call.



er. dumb or smut...



only japanese would advertise for that...



take the mrt...



this is a cracker haha...



take the bus..



dot...dot...dot.

er. okay maybe thats a friggin too much. going to TRY to study, ciao.

GOOOOAAAAALLLLL!!!

contrary to really popular belief, brazil really ain't that great... been watching world cup matches recently at ben's house and at home, having to shift the antenna is really evil shit. Right,... here are some ways you can watch world cup matches:

1. tell ur mom u're studying overnight at macs --> mac 24 hour stores have kewl LCD tvs which show all world cup matches
2. stay over at a friend's house --> one match at 9, 12 and 3 am, keeps you occupied
3. plug a paper clip to the back of ur tv where the tv says [antenna] and manual program ur tv. find the channels SCTV, RTM1, RTM2. SCTV shows all matches
4. log on to http:\\www.viidoo.com if u got cable or broadband and download the leet programme. Then log on to ESPN2, CCTV8 or ABC Sports
   

and i just used method 4 and think its great. caught brazil vs aussie and must say aussie were quite unlucky to lose. Brazil couldn't really do much with aussie packing 11 sardines in their half. On attack though aussie went forward together and looked more likely to score, with lucio and juan weak at the back.yeap. Dida was shaky too. Made some great saves, but lucky not to concede. Ronaldo as usual was crap, although he did set up the first goal for adriano. Robinho is clearly a better player!

anw was surfing around (not studying) and looked at people's blogs. nice stuff!



this one is abt a woman who tries too hard to hide her tummy =D



smart men do everything to down beer.



err. he would have laid her if he stripped first :p



Drink responsibly. Ask those questions only if u have a chance of getting it



and... er.. ok everything has a downside. refer to above. Drink responsibly.



i'd go for the girl... haha



use this to clean ur toilet bowl ehz...



shows that beer is really a wonder drink!



wow... and parents still send their girls to ballet classes and PAY a bomb for this



that's why i hate voodoo...

ahh. france vs korea is on nw. have fun watching the vids =D
