Life For Rent

Hey folks. I had a great weekend @ Sentosa and my friends in the chub club aside, I went as an individual but I came back as two! What am I talking about? Details, coming up soon with pictures!

Moving on, perhaps u would notice the ad on the right. I put it up to spread the word, so please feel free to take a look and see if you would like to donate. As this ad is for charity, I receive no earnings for the clicks but what’s more important to me is to just help spread the word and to leave the decision to the individual.

I am not sure how I can articulate this out.. but there is a certain ‘feel’ when one receives his new IC. I also got my new passport recently coincidentally as it was expiring. Most of us have begun working before we turn 30. However this is different. Perhaps those have gone through this passage will know what I mean. Those who have yet to, well, see if you share the same sentiment in time. It is the feeling to the tune of ‘welcome to the real working world, where REAL expectations are gonna be part and parcel of your life’. We guys can work for 5 years since 25 and to be frank, NOT be in the REAL working world. When I received my IC it is like wow, it is like a new life has just begun. A new IC, a new picture (that will last me till the day I die technically for now as there are no more compulsory replacement exercises), a new passport, a new beginning and new endeavours.

That said, as I have been working on my trading techniques and skills, I feel my ability to detach myself emotionally has gone up a few notches in tandem. It is like out of the 10 levels in martial arts, I see myself heading up notch by notch. My ability to detach emotions has been somewhat tested a couple times recently. I think I did pretty alright.

Moving on, the year long list of resolutions that I did… I’m proud to announce that I have accomplished all the little ones. The larger ones will take time, while the mid sized ones will be done by December as the self paid courses and exams will be done by December only.

I’m looking forward to the couple stuff planned for the next few weeks and all. I hope things will turn out great n fun! *crosses fingers* I will be putting up photos, soon!

I have just set up my facebook page so I have been playing around with it. What I like bout it is that people can tag you in pictures but the problem is, one cannot download the pictures. I mean, prevent the rest from doing so by all means but if I am tagged shouldn’t I be allowed to download it?

July has been going fine thus far. Am up to some radical expansions at work and hopefully by the end of it all things will really turn out well.

The Chub Club has been doing activities every weekend and it has been really fun! Unfortunately mei mei the lawyer is a very busy lady while I the slacker has been sorta procrastinating with the pictures and video feeds up here. I promise I will have them up eventually! We were at Dempsey last night (yes cause I turn 30) and had a great dinner and beer at Red Dot. Have always loved the band but we found another item on the menu that is so good. The Ox Cheek! You MUST try it if you are heading down there. It is personally endorsed by me. We headed off to Oosh just a few steps away from Red Dot and we had our little hut and the ambiance is serene, quiet and all which is a good getaway of sorts. I really like it. I had, and gave blowjobs. I got a mouthful of slippery nipples. Downed some great lychee mojitos and had awesome warm cake which oozed lovely chocolate out! It is a really good place for some R&R and thanks to JJs who took me home cause I can never get my butt home in 4 wheels by myself!

Mei mei also got me a lovely CK bag which I can not only use for work but over the weekends too. It was tough finding a bag that goes on me well in different attires and the CK bag did the trick indeed! It was very very nice thanks mei mei! I saw a nice travel bag on display too and after mulling over it for a while, I got that for myself too! Fruitful.. very fruitful. The whole idea is, I love them to bits!

I wanna thank Jay and Jayme, Alvin and Edwin, and mei mei for the presents. Very lovely and practical gifts. They know me very well when it comes to this department! Thanks Jared for the card as well.

Coming up, a 2 night slumber party and BBQ happening this coming weekend as a finale to the July birthday celebrations extravaganza at Sentosa. Genting highlands trip coming up over the national day weekend as well and then Perth in Sept where I will be very proud to watch mei mei get crowned after spending many many years of anguish toiling away for it. I don’t think I can ever do what she did seriously but she did. I wouldn’t miss out witnessing the ‘crowning’ for anything and although I wasn’t with her for most parts of the study journey, I am very privileged to be able to witness her being presented with the fruits of her labor. I do think the term labor, is an understatement!

Over the past few months, and as recent as hours away I saw some photos of the rooms people had. One of them worked very hard for it, the other simply had to ask. For the former, it is kinda bitter sweet. The kinda bitter sweet where you know he truly deserved the happiness one gets from having a room decor’ed the way he likes it. On the other hand I figure, if he paid me back soon enough I could have done up my own lil kennel the way I wanted to. That being said I guess I am kinda used to it already and I have long brain washed myself into doing what I wanna do with my own place one day. When, and how, the road map is blurry for now. Perhaps I should just work on the current and when things unfold in the future, I will take cue from it then.

I am devoting a lot of my time and energy to work and friends. I think not many people truly understand how important it is to me. So much so some of them seem to discount themselves away which will inevitably and naturally lead me to discount a lot of things in return as well. I have said it before, that if these things happen, don’t blame me for having a change of attitude between us. As Rach puts it, if there’s anyone in the world who can take something up, and subsequently put it back down turn around and walk away, that would be me. Yes I have mastered that skill. It came at a price, but I think it is very well worth it.

Coming up as well, I will gonna have to begin studying for an exam that I will be taking in Dec. It is all at professional level and self-paid of course so it is easy to add that I will definitely be putting loads of effort on it.

So work and friends aside, it is time to focus a lil bit more on my health too. I think I have been getting too unhealthy for my own good. Just yesterday while looking into the mirror at the CK outlet in paragon with my then new bag-to-be, I noticed how fat my ass is! Maybe it was just a lousy pair of jeans indeed but the ass, omg.. I need to do something bout it. I will be doing my swims at the club. I will also look at making my return to the gym for a different kind of training. The mighty mark system still works very well in mass and muscle building, but I am gonna create a new one for fitness and maintenance.

The Chub Club rules! There’s nothing else better in the world than the chub club! It is true, darn true. I love you all! There are some whom I’ll say ‘you can kiss my sorry fat cellulite filled ass!’, but you know what, why bother. They prolly aint worth me baring my fat ass in the first place.

Hope u folks have had a great weekend! Do share any good haunts or ideas for getaways with me if you do have any.

I heard the trailer cum interview for the Love of Siam on Class 95 today. I couldn’t remember who was giving the interview but I think it is Mario. I quite like the other, Wichawisit Hiranwongkul who plays Mew. Some questions asked like why should audiences catch Love of Siam. The question was somehow asked twice. The first reply was that audience will see love, from a thai’s perspective. Something we don’t get to see usually. I was thinking bout that line for a while. Granted it wasn’t slated to be like a homosexual themed movie but the relationship between the 2 boys go beyond close friendship which is pretty obvious. I did catch this once elsewhere (after the whole world has watched it literally, apparently) and I do quite like it actually. Loads of emotions, struggles and all not just between the two leads, but those surrounding them too. Indeed a love story from Thailand coming to our shores is very rare. Usually it is horror flicks and all!

I can also say, after watching it before, why it will make it out to our screens. That is cause it has the classic ending which all homo themed movies have in common if they are to be aired here. I remember my ex watched it countless times and always teared. For me, I can still remember how it ended, and the last line uttered for the movie before it came to a close.

I actually don’t mind catching it again. To sorta remind myself of some stuff.

Here’s the sypnosis -

Two young boys are best friends living quiet family lives in Bangkok. Their lives are disrupted when one boy’s older sister goes missing on a jungle trip. The shattered family moves away, separating the boys. Years later, now in their late teens, the boys meet again. One of them is now the leader of an aspiring boy band whose managing assistant bears a striking resemblance to the lost sister. The boys must deal with their family and social lives and their feelings for each other.

Prepare to witness a variety of love stories with many lives connected through close friendships. These love stories will be revealed together with beautiful love songs that will surely make everyone feel the warmth. Its a time which will last in everyones memory forever.

Hey folks! I have been busy playing with facebook *L*. Yes I know I said I won’t do up a full profile but what the hell. The prince is known for being unpredictable and popping things out of nowhere after mulling over it for a while.

I can’t get enough of Sean Kingston’s Burning Fire. I had a chat with DJ George from super sundays, and he said he has been doing the dave aude remix of it, which I have as well. Now I am enticed to pop over to have a drink with him and do some catch up before he begins his set!

The other track that I have been listening to which I think many may not know of, is Breakeven by The Script. Another track which sorta captured my ear is Shattered by O.A.R. It actually sounds quite weird when I heard it for a few times but it somehow grew on me somewhat.

Me and my music. A relationship that is unbreakable. At least, there’s actually something that’s unbreakable.

hey folks. it was a good ubin weekend. thank goodness it only began pouring on sunday as we checked out of the hotel. but yes, while it was tiring it was rejuvenating. loads of fun. i basically shocked my body into forgetting bout work… very effective!

i will post pictures and stuff at a later time. Coming up this weekend. Steamboat! woo hoo! But it means we all need to get through another work week first.. *rolls eyes*

hope everyone had a great weekend too!

Stress can be seen just by looking at one’s fingernails.

Did you know? No?

I looked down at my fingernails for some reason. I trimmed them just the other day.. but… apparently I forgot to trim one finger. It happened to be my right middle finger. I actually forgot to cut the nails off one finger….

I hope I remember to do so tonight.. before I make myself look stupid tomorrow. it is an Ubin/Changi weekend! Woo hoo!

Version 1 – This pairing brings together two very different natures, and caution is strongly advised. At first the Aries may show ardent desire, and pursue the Crab in a romantic way that sends signals of true love. But if the sensitive heart of Cancer opens, there could be trouble when the Aries flame suddenly goes out. The Cancer will retreat into their shell, and the Aries will either get bored and move on, or do serious damage by trying to gain re-entry into the Crab’s private world by force.

Aries doesn’t understand the indirect style of the Cancer nature, and could become impatient. The emotional world of the Cancer could seem claustrophobic, dependent and limiting to the strong-willed Aries. A needy, wounded Cancer that tries to hang on to an Aries may hold on for many years before letting go. If this pair makes it through the initial shock of their encounter, it could end up being a challenging, exciting relationship. Aries inspires Cancer to let go of their fears and “just do it,” and Cancer opens the Ram up to their emotional depths.

Version 2 – This romance can go either way, can be stormy and trouble filled, or work like a well-oiled machine. Cancer can give the Aries the home base they need, but on the negative side, Cancer keeps their hurt feelings to themselves, and you as an Aries are not comfortable with this.

Version 3 – ARIES & CANCER: – The Crab is far too sensitive and slow for your speedy and hot tempered nature. You will have difficulty listening to the Crabs nagging and negativity. This is really a poor match up right from day one.

ARIES goes with Leo, Sagittarius, Gemini and Aquarius (most compatible is Leo).

Best Match For Aries Is Leo
Aries has a fiery personality, and can be quite head strong. This can make them hard to match with other people, but also make them very passionate with some. Leo and Aries are perhaps the best of all matches, but if things go wrong and one betrays the other, it can get explosively ugly!

Worst Match For Aries is Cancer
Hardly a match made in heaven Aries and Cancer tend to clash. Do not despair if you are in one of these relationships, true love will overcome. Both Aries and cancer are powerful and very self expressive. However, Cancer can be sensitive and somewhat anxious while Aries people are dominant and spontaneous. Aries is not the greatest at expressing their feelings. This leads to the constant annoyance of the moody, retrospective Cancer.

SIGH. 3 strikes?
