Someone's boring me.
I think it's me.

Rainy days and Mondays
Talking to myself and feeling old
Sometimes I'd like to quit
Nothing ever seems to fit
Hangin' around, nothing to do but frown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down
They can never make songs like they used to anymore. Oh my dearest oldies. It's days like these that i miss you the most.
What I've got they used to call the blues
Nothing is really wrong
Feeling like I don't belong
Walking around some kind of lonely clown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down
I look out the upon the streets below as the windows start to mist, people rushing along as memories seep through my mind.
Funny but it seems I always wind up here with you
It's nice to know somebody loves me
Funny but it seems that it's the only thing to do
To run and find the one who loves me
Aww.. the sweet breeze of yester-days. Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.

Saturday Night Fever
When John Travolta walked onto the dance floor in the smash hit film SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER it changed the way we move forever.
The hit Broadway and West End musical inspired by the 1977 film phenomenon, featuring hits from the legendary soundtrack by the Bee Gees, is now on a major tour.
Saturday Night Fever is a two and half hour dance marathon with the volume set to high. Whether it's your first time, or you were there when it all began, disco will never looked and sounded so good..
Woho. I so so so got to save up for this! BeeGees forever!

Random ramblings
More puzzles! ha. Seems like there's something new to solve every week eh. I have a friend who claimed that Bill Gates once computed a series of the answers for lab tests at Microsoft and still can't figure it out. *Duh look*
Know how i love doing dumb personality tests online? Well i just found one that gave me the most accurate readings and all it took was my birth-date! woho. So much for character building and personality huh, since everything was predetermined on the day of my birth. haha.
A cheerful soul, Kelvin is an attractive individual whose humour and charm can inspire others to follow his ideas. Although his active brain can generate many bright ideas, he cannot be guaranteed to finish one idea before starting on the next. Although money tends to burn a hole in his pocket, Kelvin will always maintain the impression that all is well.
With an analytical brain, and holding strong views, Kelvin may appear to be somewhat stubborn. He is likely to have a particular interest in technological matters, and will work long and hard to master the skills needed to put that technology to good use. Family-orientated and good with money, he will work best with a small circle of like-minded colleagues.
Sensitive to criticism and naturally intuitive, Kelvin has a natural ability to detect insincerity in others. Because he is a sensitive soul, Kelvin can be a solid friend and a good listener. Kelvin finds it difficult to accept other people as they really are, and is constantly disillusioned with life. Once he accepts that others are only human, the frustrations will cease.
Tenacious and stubborn, he is something of a perfectionist who can be counted upon to complete tasks without supervision. Kelvin is a cynic who worries too much about the downside. He needs to recognise more of life's advantages.

Destinee
I was created by fire, to set your heart ablaze.
I have seen scenes of greatest perfection,
yet all I want is to see your face.
That Lee Hua commercial's really charming, i think. The imagery and sexy voice, woho. Too bad i don't fancy diamonds.
On another note, anyone tried this? I got out of the room within 15 mins or so. *smirk smile*

Charmless man
He thinks his educated airs, those family shares,
will protect him, that we'll respect him.
He moves in circles of friends,
who just pretend that they like him,
he does the same to them.
And yet he tries so hard to please,
he's just so keen for you to listen,
but no-one's listening.
And when you put it all together
there's the model of a charmless man..
na na na na na na na na na
.. the model of a charmless man.

Lonely Valentines
Sure i was sad when all 57 girls rejected me last Saturday. Heck, even my neighbour's 8 year old daughter shrieked and ran away. (Must be the pick-up lines.)
But deep down i know, the important thing is that,
"I already gave my best. I have no regrets at all."
Afterall, i have no professional training with girls.
P.S. This is supposed to be a joke, stop sending me consolations! Argh.
P.P.S. To those who laughed at William Hung, who's laughing now? ha

Pick-up lines
I thought since it's Valentines, i might as well use some pick-up lines to get myself a date, yea. *wink*
1. I'm new in town, can you give me directions to your apartment?
2. Are you free tonight, or will it cost me?
3. My name's Kelvin. That's so you know what to scream.
4. Hey baby, I know you want me. You just don't know it yet.
5. Do you believe in love at first sight...or do I have to walk by again?
6. You're so hot than when I look at you I get a tan.
7. Can you catch? I think I'm falling for you.
8. Stand still so I can pick you up.
Okay, maybe not..

I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing
I'd like to build the world a home
And furnish it with love
Grow apple trees and honey bees and snow-white turtle doves
I'd like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony
I'd like to hold it in my arms and keep it company
Ever had a song at the back of your mind, constantly probing, ringing, swirling up there. Irritating. Very. I need a new song to occupy that spot desperately.
I'd like to see the world for once
All standing hand in hand
And hear them echo through the hills
"Ah, peace throughout the land"

Taxi drivers
I usually enjoy conversing with taxi drivers on my rides home, but today was an exception and i so very have to bitch about it. Anyways, here i was, taking a cab home at 4:30am, utterly spent from a long dull day. Yearning for some sleep, i was like an explosion awaiting ignition. And that was exactly what that damned cabbie gave me.
After paying $16.50 for my $16.45 fare, i stared at the driver, awaiting some form of acknowledgement. Instead, the driver's face crumbled into an awkward mess, effectively giving me the look. (the is pronounced with an italian accent.)
Cabbie: Your fare is $16.45.
(the look.)
Me: Hmm..
At first, i thought, hey maybe i underpaid him or something, but i double checked and i did indeed pay him $16.50. So what was the problem here?
Cabbie: You want me to change you 5 cents ah?
(the look intensified.)
Me: Huh, oh, err.. it's ok, you can keep the change.
Come to think of it now, i should have insisted on the change and threw it back at him darn face. It's 4:30 in the morning lor, the last thing i needed was someone to piss me off.
To that darned cabbie: I hope you are happy, now that you are 5 cents richer, loser.

Foaming
I have this friend; let's call him Ben for identification's sake. Now, Ben talks alot. In fact, i strongly believe that he lives just so he could keep talking. Not that it is a bad thing thou, for he speaks pretty darn well. You know, i bet he could talk himself out of a murder charge if he was given the situation and chance. But, ah ha, the thing is this - everytime he speaks, he gets engrossed, and as he gets engrossed, he gets excited, and as he gets excited, he foams. Yes, foams. You know, his saliva kinda gather at the corners of his mouth, forming this two white bubble-ish pool at each side.
I don't know about you guys, but that bothers me alot. It makes me twitch. Everytime as we converse, my focus will slowly move from his eyes to the corners of his mouth and his voice fades away as voices fill my mind. They (the voices) usually go, 'Oh my god, swallow swallow, pause and swallow it! You are going to choke i tell you. Hey, it's starting to spurt, argh, get away from me. Get away from ME!'

What Emotion Dominates you?
Lonliness dominates you. You can hide it well, but its there, and your friends can see it. You constantly feel alone, and need to do things to fill your time. Your afraid to tell people this, but sooner or later it gets out in a bad way, and you think you screwed up everything. And when you are in love is when you are sad the most.

Dreams
We have 60,000 thoughts per day; 90% are the same thoughts we had yesterday and the day before, 80% of them are negative.
That is just human nature.
We seem to accept defeat before we even begin the journey. The difference between those who fulfill their dreams and those who don't is the ability to handle the obstacles. Many of us make resolutions to go for our dreams, but why do we seem to always fall short? Having dreams gives your life, your career power, direction and meaning.
But how many are actually living that dream? Our negative side, our fears, often become the major obstacle.
Reach high, for the stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream preceded the goal. Reach for the stars; they are there for the taking, if you really want them.
I have found some of mine, but the journey has just begun, and that is the fun of it all.
P.S. The statistic crap about thoughts was from some article i read; doubt it is accurate, but i thought it's kinda cool to add them in. ha.

What is your grammar aptitude?
You are the grammar Fuhrer. All bow to your authority. You will crush all the inferior people under the soles of your jackboots, and any who question your motives will be eliminated. Your punishment is being the bane of every other person's existence, because you're constantly contradicting stupidity. Everyone will be gunning for you. Your dreams of a master race of spellers and grammarians frighten the masses. You must always watch your back. If only your power could be used for good instead of evil.

Love Test
Here i am doing stupid tests online again.
1. You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.
2. In the process of courtship, the approach that would make you feel irresistable is creative, never let you feel bored.
3. The impression you would like to give to your lover is loyal, faithful, never change.
4. You don't like it when your partner is emotional and/or too moody; and you don't know how to please him/her.
5. The kind of relationship you would like to build with your partner is one that you care not only about the present but also the future with your partner, a long-lasting relationship that you can grow with.
6. You care about the society and morality, you won't do anything wrong after marriage.
7. You think of marriage as a precious thing. Once you get married, you'll treasure it and your partner very much.
8. At this moment, you think of love as a committment for both parties.
Okay, so..
1. Pounce on me, baby. Purrr~
2. So, where shall we go next dear?
3. Woof woof!
4. -_-;
5. Aww~
6. But of course! Do i look someone who fools around? (Wait! You don't have to answer that! ha.)
7. Refer to point 6.
8. This is exactly why i am having difficulties getting into a relationship.

Happy New Year!
This post isn't late.. nah, 2004 just came too early, that's all. In fact, Christmas came to early, november went too fast, october skipped some steps, and 2003 flashed in a wink. (Which reminds me, i still owe someone a Christmas gift.)
Anyways, there i was lying on my bed, trying to recollect bits and pieces of 2003, reflecting, when i suddenly realise - alas, there isn't much to recollect. I haven't really done anything significant for the past year.
Nil, zip, nuts, zero, nada. 365 days and nothing. Hmm.. although this might be due to the fact that i have a really bad memory.. but we'll leave it as that for the time being.
So i thought; hey this must be the reason why people come up with new year resolutions - so that they can coax themselves into believing that they will actually, finally do something meaningful this next year, you know, so that it will not be as wasted as the past year.
Hello? Who are you guys kidding, really.
Of course, i am nothing like the other people. I will actually keep to my resolutions! Hmm.. just like how i did last year.. spritually.. haha..
1. Really really need to get off my lazy ass and start doing some work. Web designing, script writing, shooting short films, print designing; you know, stuff like that..
2. Sleep more.
3. Exercise more.
4. Notice how sleep more and exercise more kinda contradicts each other? Oh well.. whatever.
5. Decide what i am going to do after N.S. (National Service.) ORD LOH!
6. Get a girlfriend. n_n;
7. Stop making new year resolutions which i can't keep; refer to points one to six.
P.S. Sorry dear, i'll try to remember to bring your present out the next time we meet, k? That is, if i remember to buy it first.
Oh crap, did i say that out loud? I hope i din't say that out loud.
