So did anything happen between you and her last night?
Nah, everytime I tried to get some, I started having spasms.
Gee.. Psychological problem?
Stun gun.
Oh..

Tiring
As I usually don't gamble during the new year, I am automatically assigned to take care of the kids. And this year, I don't know if it's simply because the timing of everyone is just perfect, the kids deciding to group themselves together, or for some other unknown reasons, but there is a sudden influx of kids this time round.
Picture six hyperactive kids jumping up and down asking you to bring them to the playground. Being as smart as I am, I still have no idea why I actually agreed. I would probably be puzzled over this one for years to come.
Catching, jumping, carrying, racing, swinging. All these while having to keep your eye on six of them running in six different directions, making sure they are not going to hurt themselves.
This is madness!
And hello, why am I automatically the monster as they all scurried to the safety of their spaceship? I am supposed to be the good guy here, why can't I be the captain instead?
It's been a tiring new year.

Kids ask the darnest things
As predicted, it was a little awkward, trying to explain to the hundredth relative why she is not here with me this year.
And it does feel a little weird when some of them reply with,
'it's okay de ar, you should have still invited her over.'
Aww, so sweet.
What they didn't know is that even when I greet her happy new year these days, she'll pretend it's just echos from her phone and doesn't even bother to greet me back.
See if they will say the same thing if they known that. Ah-ha!
I was even prepared when some of the elders ask,
'I thought you two are getting married next year?'
Mental note to self: Never ever answer them when they ask when I am getting married again. Should have just nodded and smiled, just like how we usually do. Giving an answer the last time was a huge mistake.
But what I really didn't expect, what really caught me off guard was,
the kids. The kids asking me the same questions.
What's even more surprising is when they say things like,
'don't bluff, where you hiding your wedding ring?'
First off, I didn't expect them to remember someone they only meet once a year, and what's more remember tiny details like rings.
I have to give it to them, they really got me there.
I didn't know how to answer them, how could anyone?
Kaoz, kids ask the darnest things.
P.S. Kaoz is in reference to Cows. I'm not scolding them. Honest.

Fat
*munching new year goodies*
*poke* Woah, you are fat!
Hey, real beauty is only skin deep! *munch*
Considering all the fats, it's still a long way in, to see your beauty.
And that's why I don't talk to myself anymore.

Habbi Niu Ear
Since it's the 'Cow' year and all.
Any idea how the Mad Cow Disease started?
(Answer in white, highlight below to read.)
Wouldn't you be mad if someone plays with your nipples (milking) everyday but doesn't have sex with you? Ha. Ha. Ha.
Sorri all! Stop scolding me.
It's the new year, be nice! =x
Habbi niu ear peeps!

Perfect
We are all looking for that perfect person. The one flawless being.
Yet we often overlooked that it's often those little things; be it little habits, weird quirks, even funny accents with certain words. What others sometimes call imperfections. Those are little things that you pick up along your journey together, to make, not the perfect person.
But the perfect person for you.

Earphones
I saw this cute girl the other day trying to untangle her earphones on the train.
It took her the whole 20 odd minutes from Novena to Ang Mo Kio to do that. Man, if it was a guy, I would have entertained myself for the rest of the journey, thinking how many different ways I can come up with to describe his intelligence.
But her, I was thoroughly amused by her.
Drawn infact.
Geez.

Nice shirt
Speaking of nice-shirt conversations; I think it's also quite amusing that everytime you comment that someone's shirt is nice, he/she will reply with the price of it. And then he/she will give you that look.
You know, that ta-da-stick-out-head-and-spread-hands look.
As if they are expecting you to drop your jaws and scream,
Wha-? No way!
And with that, of course you have to then drop your jaws and scream,
Wha-? No way!
And that's not all, they will continue,
Yes way! And you won't believe this.
*pause*
No really. See, I got this jeans for X dollars! And and.. this..
Proceeding to showcase everything they have on and their price-lists.
Seriously.
I was just being polite when I said your shirt is nice.

Hair cut
Hey, did you cut your hair?
I find it pretty amusing that people always ask me that. If it's obvious enough for you to notice, isn't that like, a given already? Do they really expect me to say something like,
No, actually I am balding and my hair just fell off..
Thanks for the concern.
More often than not, the conversation will continue like this.
Yea, I did. Just cut it few days back.
Oh.
*awkward silence*
Oh, nice shirt by the way.

The stock market
What exactly happened to the economy? Where did all the money go? How can banks come tumbling down overnight? Let me tell you how..
Once upon a time in a village, a man appeared and announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys for $10 each.
The villagers, seeing that there were many monkeys around, went out to the forest and started catching them. The man bought thousands at $10 and as supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their effort.
He further announced that he would now buy at $20. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again. Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms.
The offer increased to $25 each and the supply of monkeys became so little that it was an effort to even see a monkey, let alone catch it!
The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at $50! However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would now buy on behalf of him.
In the absence of the man, the assistant told the villagers; “Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has collected. I will sell them to you at $35 and when the man returns from the city, you can sell them to him for $50 each.”
The villagers used all their savings and bought all the monkeys.
Then they never saw the man nor his assistant ever again.
Only monkeys everywhere!

Resolutions
I guess it's that time of the year again; where people list down things they didn't manage to achieve in the past year, wish they could do in the following year, but most probably wouldn't accomplish in their lifetime.
So let's just see how I would do.
1. Sleep earlier.
I thought I'll start off with something simple, to ease myself into this whole resolutions thingy. So yah, sleep earlier.
2. Keep fit.
Keeping in line with the healthier lifestyle business. I hereby pledge to exercise more, drink more water, eat healthier, snack less.. you get the drift.
3. Work harder.
For various reasons, the past few months have been a really slack-and-work-just-enough-to-get-by period. Must start working harder. Kick off my few pending personal projects, take more photos, experiment more.
4. A-post-a-day.
To get me in the mood of working harder, I shall blog a post each day. Yes, you heard it right. Hur hur! So expect something new here everyday. Would probably be posting more doodles, work-in-progress, and photos. Plus the usual nonsense. Let's see how long I can keep this up yah! *fingers crossed
5. Play even harder.
Naturally. I can probably go on about this forever. There's just so much I want to do in regards. Go Japan, Taiwan, Paris, US and so much more. I'll probably have to split that up into these few years. Meet up with more friends, KTV more, pick up some new activities (mahjong? fishing? hiking? diving?). Generally have more F.U.N.
6. Help others.
Okay, this one is abit tricky. Would it be some community work? A friend in need? I really have no idea yet. Let's just see how it works out. Go Karma~
7. Read more.
Have been meaning to catch up on some Physics theories for some time now. See what's new in my favorite world of "bullshat". Haha. While I'm at it, let's throw in the papers, some novels, and what-nots. Worldly wise my friends, worldly wise.
8. Learn something new.
Driving is one thing I'm in the midst of. But I'm pretty keen on learning some serious cooking, Chinese Calligraphy and other miscellaneous little skills. And while the Government is subsiding 40% fees for degrees.. nice. I would probably be looking out for a suitable part-time course too. Woah, busy busy.
9. Get married.
Right. This is probably a long shot, considering I'm not seeing anyone now. But I don't know, ever since I changed my mind about this whole marriage/kids thingy, I am looking pretty forward to this whole new-stage-of-life idea. So, let's not close any doors just yet, who knows? Boom-boom-boom, things might have a sharp turn in the following months. You and I both know God loves to play jokes, especially on me. Boo hoo.
10. Blank.
Ah.. I'm leaving the last one as my trump card. So I can see how things goes and come back and edit this. Haha. Shh. Don't tell others.

Mouse
Is your mouse calibrated? You should do this every year. More often if you spend a lot of time on computer. Most people don't because it's just too troublesome, but there is a simpler way of doing it, I'll show you.
To re-calibrate your mouse, click and hold on the Y below. Then drag the Y toward the g. If it doesn’t work, you might want to clean your mouse.
You dumb ass. You'll believe anything.

He, she and me
Many of you are asking me who exactly is the she that I always mention in my posts. At times, you could swear I am talking about you-know-who, other times, you say it has to be some other girl I'm teasing, and sometimes you don't even know if that she really exists.
Truth is, it is all of the above.
There is plenty of reasons why I decided to proceed with this style of writing. To avoid awkwardness for me (you-know-why), to avoid embarrassment for the whichever her it is in that post, to allow more room for the reader's own interpretation and most of all, because that's the way I like it.. Uh-huh.. Uh-huh.. Okay, I've just unwillingly revealed that I come from a totally different era.
Go on, laugh.
