Singapore 24th-27th

yo donkeydelics. had a busy week, went down to singapore for some job huntin which i hope will end up well! here's the start till the end of mah trip.


24th - The Journey
took First Coach to SG, thanks Su, the bus totally beats other stupid bus companies heh. while laming in the bus, i spotted somethin...

two uncles at my right opening cans of tiger beer and toasting to...journey southwards? wtfffffffff
PS: immigration officer in second link is cute.


25th : The Move
woke up late about 11, and it drizzled, stupid weather. we're all shifting to a new flat over at Yio Chu Kang.

those aint garbage haha, we had to move these crap down into this small lil truck

we ain't construction workers


OKAY, so you cant really see the size of truck, but both of us were all the way at the back of it with all those stuffs there, and we had to do two trips just to bring everything over. best of all, we had to bring 'em up to the 5th floor, walk half a block to a stairs, go up a floor, and walk like a few steps to reach our new place. talk about slavery.
our new messy crib
26th:The Hunt
bad start for a day, had friggin flu, thank god that after i stepped out of the flats, i've stopped sneezing, guess it's the bloody dust all over the stupid place even after all the mopping i've done. and it was raining AGAIN, checked out several places, got interviewed and filled some forms...didnt bring my passport out with me too, how smart can i get.

the inside of Marina Mandarin, looks good, too bad i wont be workin there

27th:The Return

RAINED AGAIN. FLU-ISH AGAIN. thought of goin job hunting again but got lazy, joshua, ck and i decided to have lunch together before they went off for work. went to the restaurant near our area, sat down and ordered our drink


auntie: what you want to drink? (in mandarin)


me: "shuet char"

auntie: tea? as in, teh "peng" that tea? (mandarin again)

3 of us explained what i wanted, which was the chinese tea which people from China drink.

auntie: ohh, that tea, cold or hot? (mandarin AGAIN)

me: cold please (in cantonese)

auntie: okay okay (uhh...mandarin/english?)


chinese tea in a teabag, and another cup of ice

auntie: leave the tea first for a few minutes then pour the ice in =) (mandarin once more)

verdict: my life in singapore might end up like hell.

7.30pm bus, met up with Su, took the bus which was pretty decent at first, till it broke down after 30 minutes of journey, went back into johor bahru to get a change of the bus, and downgraded us from 3 seats a row, to the regular 4 seats a row. journey took about 8 hours to KL...luckily i sat beside someone i knew, otherwise i would have hijacked the bus and emulate Speed, the movie.

Conclusion : i'm prolly jinxed when it comes to travelling KL <> Singapore

Movie Review : Constantine

a simple review before i head down to the land of the expensive ciggies for a few days.

i flicked through my ol' dvds, and i stumbled across my fave of all times, Constantine. My dad was like "didn't you watch this movie a few times already?". Well anyways, dont blame me, blame the director for making such an uberly cool movie.


Posers : John Constantine , Papa Midnite , Chaz Kramer

arguably the best comic reproduced onto the big screen, it wins my vote hands down. brilliantly played by Keanu Reeves especially in movies with suits and stuffs, and transformers kiddo shia labeouf, this movie is about a man trying to buy his way to heaven by wiping out demons who've been naughty on Earth. he just doesnt own demons, HE OWNS U.


thanks to the advanced technology bestowed upon us, Constantine is now available for download via Bittorrent. If you're feeling lazy to download, you might want to head down to the nearest illegal dvd seller. Your last resort will be borrowing my dvd, which i doubt i'll ever do.


Best line in the movie, good one for you to use in real life situations too.

John Constantine : This is Constantine. John Constantine, asshole.

CD review : Beck OST

first of all, sorry for not updating this stupid page for such a long time, i was busy, busy doing nothing.
well i'm gonna try to update it regularly... AGAIN.


PETS WONDERLAND OST?!?!?! no sorry to let you down, but it's an OST from Beck the anime. for those who havent seen that before, this anime series will convert you to a rock lover. the cd boasts the songs played in the anime series itself, best ones IMHO are Brainstorm, Slip Out, and Face. they also have a slowmo song for lovebirds, and a wannabe golden oldies tune too.
check this out if you're a rock lover / guitar fan. the bass is just funky.
