stupid singaporean drivers

saw a bunch of dumb drivers this morning on my way to work. i was rushing to board the bus to work but due to the ugly singaporean syndrome, i.e. jamming at the entrance by unruly homo sapiens circa singapore, i was unable to get aboard the bus. it was really a blessing in disguise for me, in a way. while on board the 2nd bus as it was exiting the interchange, a couple of dumb singaporean drivers appeared. an accident right at the entrance of boon lay interchange, caused by inconsiderate people stopping just after the entrance leading to a lorry, mpv and the 1st bus which i missed to collide. the final and dumbest driver is next to appear. an ambulance was blaring its siren and flashing its emergency lights as it was trying to u-turn away from the accident scene. other vehicles had emptied the right lane for the ambulance to turn into and as the ambulance turned into it, the dumb singaporean driver, in an attempt to take advantage of the empty lane, drove right into the ambulance! dumb! inconsiderate! ass! he needs to have his eyes checked!

sleep, sleep and more sleep

the weekend is here and i can finally get some quality long sleep. well, it really is not the way i would like to spend my weekend. alas, i do not have the privelledge of having friends who ask me out often or a partner to spend time with. this can be partially attributed to my character but i am not one to lament. i am who i am. lonely man can not complain much. however, deep down, i would rather be bogged down with having to spend time with a partner or family commitments then to have the ample amount of time i have on my hands. i have only one wish: "to find something so valuable that it does not cost."

was i gullible or just plain stupid?

it is not so much of not wanting to face the person who rejected me but more of i can not take the attitude of rejecting someone to test them. or maybe the chemistry was not the correct mix. was i gullible or plain stupid?

陪妳一起淋過多少雨 如今看來是多餘
眼神一旦開始說謊 結局彷彿已注定
以為相處只要靠默契 現在才知要勇氣
戀人一旦開始說謊 最好學習保護自己
我的愛那麼多 給妳一生都足夠 要不是妳恨我
我還矇在鼓中 睡在夢中 絕對絕對想不透

我愛妳 愛到灰心 愛到不堪回憶 眼中只剩一片撲朔迷離
收拾我的行李 藏好妳的猶豫 不要再對我說妳寂寞
我愛妳 愛到灰心 愛到不敢愛妳
生命不該只是為妳癡迷 今夜唱完 就是最後的戀曲

生命不該只是為妳癡迷 今夜唱完 就是最後的戀曲

我對妳 曾經真心真意 曾經不問原因 不管眼前多少問題
可是妳是如何對我 妳會不會難過 還是只會低著頭
我對妳 真的愛到灰心 真的不敢愛妳
現在必須做出決定 今夜唱完 就是最後的戀曲

我愛妳 愛到灰心 愛到不敢愛妳
生命不該只是為妳癡迷 今夜唱完 就是最後的戀曲

the return

was the past year but a dream? did it flash before me leaving me memories that did not seem too real? was i blind to the fact that hope usually leads to nothing? alas, with the return of an item from far, is this the end? i do not know. i really do not know.

sore thumbs

over the last 2 days, for different periods of time, i had been fully engrosed in the game need for speed carbon. it sure felt good to be "racing" again. my only gripe is that the missions were too short. maybe they could have drawn out the storyline better. after about 2 days, i had completed the career mode already! this is way too short. however, i liked the game play and the cool cars within. hahaha!

fried chicken rice

was bored out of my tears and decided to experiment with food again. this time i made the flavoured rice used in chicken rice, then having let it sit for half a day, i then fried the rice as per normal friend rice. my personal verdict, have to make a few more adjustments.

another bigot

companies are not willing to employ freshies and yet they want people with experience. it is a bloody chicken and egg situation.

saw a mp mention in parliament that singaporeans should get rid of the t-score mentality. however, have they ever considered why this mentality came about? everywhere, the best are praised for what they have achieved. plenty of scholorships and awards go only to those with the best grades. the civil service itself only want the best and the brightest graduates. the public sector also want only the best and the brightest. this leaves those whose results are no more than average very unemployed. as such, how can you blame the singaporeans for having this clutch mentality? the government caused it! if they would even employ some person wth a diploma or maybe a degree holder without honors for one of their "management" positions, would the general public still have this same clutch mentality?

"snow-like" rain

i was watching the way the drizzle fall in the afternoon and it gave me a surreal feeling. it seemed as if a thin sheet of silk was gently flowing down from the sky. i have never experienced snow myself but it does seem abit like free falling snow to me.
