My last 24 hours

Was playing with Thomas's Mac for almost the whole of last 24 hours, or maybe 20 hours. Coz I got a nap. I LOOOOOVE IT! After returning Mac to Thomas, Yellow and I headed straight to Fitness Fitness. He wanna to gym, while I simply wanna to shower and do some shopping. While showering, I decided that I will get one. Did a quick shower, dressed, went straight to Yellow and told him I going to get MAC NOW! Reached epicentre @ 915pm, closing shop. I headed back to Fitness Fitness, empty handed. I think it going to be a sleepless night for me? :(

Btw, not going to South Africa anymore. Just cant seems to find time before Sept. :(

Hv got to wake up early tomorrow. Shitty. Dog wif the bite that burns. Arrrrrrrrrrrg!

27 May 2008

I learnt from my dad that your bolly must be alight with your nose, if not you will get wet. Drink more water. He taught me the importance of balancing between investing and working like a cow.

I learnt from my mom that foundation is vital. She taught me the importance of having a stable 9-5 job and be diligent.

Music makes me think that there is ABSOLUTE love and peace in this world.

Whenever I am pissed off with someone, I will never look her into her eyes when I talk to her. (Unless I scream)

I once chose to let my mind rather than heart rules. But it doesn’t work for me.

I think Cami loves me dearly.

I once bought chai siew baos to a friend’s gathering. She is Malay.

I do what I do because I believe in it.

A weekend...

Great Singapore Sale Started. So.. Art Festival as well. So, all Singaporeans are out on the street. Including me. MSN-ing with Sher, was talking about my Perth trip, she commented that my complexion was liked "BAKED CLAY" Good one!!! Set my alarm ringing, that for sure!! Time to search for more precious fluidss, haha. Anyway, I know she is kinda of pissed with me. "Wei, lets do a short weekend trip during school holiday ok? "

Mission Weekend. But just one purchase :) I will try to do better throughout the week. Heehee.

Was out for the whole of Sun too. Sat like a dummy in a saloon for 3 hours. Kaoz. I cant believe anyone could possibly enjoy this kind of session. *Faint*. Nicole suggested that I should try to keep my hair longer. Ok, giving it a try now. Then, heading to mart to buy Cami's Fav Batang Steak. I just don't like seeing the disappointment on her face when she sniffs Threadfins. Got Mee Goreng instant noodles too ("<). Then.. Taxidermia @ Picturehouse.

Dark Comedy in Hungarian. Taxidermia contains three generational stories, about a grandfather, a father, and a son, linked together by recurring motifs. The dim grandfather, an orderly during World War Two, lives in his bizarre fantasies; he desires love. The huge father seeks success as a top athlete -- a speedeater -- in the postwar pro-Soviet era. The grandson, a meek, small-boned taxidermist, yearns for something greater: immortality. He wants to create the most perfect work of art of all time by stuffing his own torso. Lajos(grandson) (Mark Bischoff) has become a quiet taxidermist who has no prospects in love; he is rejected by the supermarket cashier, for one. He is as frustrated in his way as his grandfather was in his, but Lajos’s fertile imagination will prove to work in a very different way. His father, Kálmán, has reached enormous proportions and can no longer move. Kálmán’s wife has long ago left him, so Lajos brings food and cleans the apartment where Kálmán (now Gábor Máté, in a fatsuit) sits amidst boxes of food and the three cats he pushes to overeat. One day Lajos finds Kálmán dead, possibly having exploded from overeating or having been mauled by one of the cats. He stuffs him, and immediately after, begins stuffing himself by locking his body onto a board surrounded by perfectly attuned machines. At the end of the procedure, a glass blade he has set up decapitates him and an electric saw severs his right arm. The two men are found by a customer, Dr. Regõczy (Géza Hegedžs D.), who puts them on display at a chic art exhibition. Dr. Regõczy, whose lecture is a continuation of the voiceover at the very beginning of the film, maintains that one can mount one’s father and oneself but can not mount the essence, that being what Lajos felt at the moment the blade cut off his head. The camera moves into the black void beyond Lajos’s bellybutton.

Actually, I think Taxidermia deserves attention. Ciao and great weekend ahead everyone. My coming week is tough. Loads need to be done at work. I need encouragement. Don't be stingy :) Also, I will need to plan out my business travels, all the way to Sept. Then, I got to work out the possibility of South Africa trip. Seems like Sept wasn't possible. Is end Jul-beg Aug ok? Arrrg!!! I need more time.. 26/8, I wasn't too greedy isnt?

Do your bits..

Was in Aus, didn't really  know how severe was Sichuan quake. As I dig more into it, the sky seems to be grey in this sunny morning. Sorry that I was having fun while this happened.

O well, not too late to do my bit. I am sure lots of restructuring need to be done from here onwards. Do your bits please.

WINE TASTING~

Wine tasting is a one of those musts.. In Margaret River: Famous for its wine production. Producing 2-3% of Australian Wine Export but 10-15% of the premiere wines.

Knotting Hills Winery. Nice place to wedd.

How a typical wine tasting class look like. I tasted some real yummy wines. Err.. and some that sucks big time too.

Heehee. Seems like I am more into winery photo taking than tasting. Haiz.

Bootleg Brewery. Around 445pm. 15? Degrees. I know I am long winded. BUT! I LOVE THE WEATHER!!!


Taken after several attempts. Because no one is really sober then. Bush Tucker is the name, if you wanna go for one of these. Thumb up for them.

Went around MR wif Neil too. Informative tour. Still, you should be able to tell that, I enjoying the weather, photo taking, breeze etc more than those boring facts. Above : Seems like we need a comb.

Neil got us one of our best meal in MR. Location, Food and Company just make it all prefect.

After lunch, we spotted Neil's Baby: Billy.

8 days NOT enough in Perth (part 3 of 8)

FOOTBALL~

Managed to catch a football match in Perth. What aussies call the footy. Its a Fremantle Dockers bulldog match.

Taken before the match. Its actually fully packed game on Sunday. I always like watching contact sport. Learnt abit here and there during the match. Basically, you can kick, run and ball handle. Look more interesting than soccer. I wanna know more about it..

But that wasnt the highlight.

Highlight came when Cheryl got me this!

"I cant take my hands off U!"

Hey sorry for the bang. Hopefully it wasnt too painful. If not, that caused a woman and a man to hurt. (",)

8 days NOT enough in Perth (part 2 of 8)

MANDURAH~

This cool "young" birdie lives in Mandurah.

Mandurah is the fastest growing site in Australia, providing an alternative lifestyle.

U know what I mean. The luxurious marine lifestyle. What Sentosa Cove as compared to this? Dolphins are common sight, greeting you while you @ your backyard. OMG

A nice place to laze, enjoy the breeze.

This is cool picture. Actually, I saw dolphins too.. They came soooo close, doing their backstroke, cruising and as if they switch on their IPOD. I can still remember how they are like. I wanna remember this forever.

Try catching one of these ride. For 20AUD. Worth the cent.

Bright sunny. I believe its about 12 degrees out there then. Arrrg! I feeling HOT now!

8 days NOT enough in Perth (part 1of 8)

PINNACLES & SAND DUNE~

One of the MUST SEE in WA. If you wonder what they are. Pinnacles are lime formation (mainly from seashells).On and on.. But yeah, I know.. You are like me. Just wanna take some nice pictures right? Here is it!

Throughout the trip, we been treated well. Most people assumed we are still little kiddos. Hence offers: helping us with photo taking been coming. This is one of those.

I realised I been getting into weird positions to take photo. But still, not that I took alot of nice photos leh. My skills sucks :(

Cheryl is definitely a better photographer.

Next Sand dunes 4WD. One of my fav in the trip. Given seats wif good view. Err.. Guessed he thought we looked like excited kiddos.

MUST TRY in Perth ok!

That Glenn. The Driver of that massive machine. He rocks!

One of the nicest sunset I have seen.

Cheryl quite good wif her camera hor.

Sand boarding. I lovin and missin it now!

During my last ride, Crazy Glenn kept urging me to do the stand-up version. I told him : I will if its my last day. To think of it, even if it is, I wouldn't have the guts. Miss Timid.

Nice last ride.
