=)

i haven't been blogging....and er.
i don't miss it at all.
~~~

i am in the midst of renovating my room, so i was going through all my stuff and throwing away junk.

saw lots of old photos (ah the good old days where fotos were in print forms only).
wow. i really had a lot of "friends" in those days.
hehe. i was having a hard time to identity pple...

think if i don't bother, most of my current friends now won't even talk to me.
hmm.
~~~

since i've decided that i will not try so hard to maintain any friendships, even very old and cherished ones....at least those that I cherished.

and since blogging was my way of reaching out to friends.

and since i'm tired.

Adiós! ¡Cuidados!

WRX prelude

so i went to the doctor to get myself medically certified to be fit for the WRX challenge tomorrow.

cherub: i need to be proved fit for a competition tmr.
doc: the Subaru challenge?
cherub: yah! a lot of pple came to you for medical certification already?
doc: nope, only 1.
cherub: oh me only or 1 before me?
doc: 1 last year. The winner.

Great. so i told the doctor that he's very lucky.
last year winner visited him for medical certification.
this year, the winner also visited him.

=)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I promised him, and the 3 nurses out there that I would buy them cakes if i win the car.
for the sake of the local bakery, i better win.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

6 more hours to go.

here's my strategy to win the car

(for those confused, the WRX challenge is a contest where contestants have to place 1 palm on a car. The longest lasting contestant will win the car. Usually over more than 72hours)

Strategy 1:

don't bath for a week, so you go off to the WRX challenge stinky like hell.
contestants may gave up after 5 minutes with you.

Con: There are 7 cars in total. You can only chase away at most all contestants of 1 car.

Solution: Don't bath 1 month.

Strategy 2:

Go there talk insurance to all the contestants standing next to you.
Talk talk talk till either

a) they promise to buy insurance from u. (i win)
b) they run away (i win)

its a win-win situtation for me.

Con: i can only talk loudly enough for 1 car's contestant

Solution: Practice from the uncle selling durians at the local NTUC

来来!! 五个,三十块!便宜阿!便宜阿!
"Lai Lai, DXO, 5 for $30!!! Cheap cheap!"

Strategy 3:

Arrange with the 319 contestants and agree to let 1 person win after 1 hour and split the money equally.

Con: that 1 person may run away in his WRX.
hard to chase him with my lancer, you know

Solution: Let me be that 1 person.

Con to solution: I may run away.

Strategy 4:
Stand there for whatever it takes and win the car!

Con: May die doing so.



uhm, first i need to pick the lucky ping-pong ball before i can even put my hand there.

Today's headline: "Standing at another turning point" (irony of the month)

"Bigger apartments fetching higher unit prices than smaller ones"

From the Straits Times, Singapore's leading self-acclaimed #1 mainstream english newspaper (machiam got competition lor).

I know they meant that bigger apartments are fetching higher prices PER SQ FT, compared to smaller units.

but at first glance, this looks like a headline (headline of the Money section) from "DUH Magazine".
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

TODAY's chief editor, Mano Sabnani "resigned".

by "resigned" of course i meant that he was informed at the last minute that he either resigned, say nothing, received lip service on his past contribution and get his ex-gratia payment.

or get sacked.

I was reading Sammyboy's forum about this incident (EH, i read the "Alfresco Coffee shop for political and current affairs, NOT the other forum hor....)

Read abt the sacking resignation incident here.

Extract:

122550.1

Hello everyone

I registered this nickname a little more than a week ago after I heard that there were parties inside Mediacorp who were making a move to sack Mano Sabnani as Today's chief editor. Little did I know how ugly it would become.

On the surface, the corporate communications machine of Mediacorp will present everything as very nice and orderly. What you read here will be a reasonably accurate account related to me of what actually happened and not what you will read in Today, Channel News Asia, Straits Times or Business Times.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And people ask me why I hate my own country.


I was born a patriot.
I would stand upright as a child when the national athemn was played.
I watched the NDP every year.
I love the country and declared that I would die fighting rather than fleeing in any war.


now, I hate this government, and i hate this country.

WRX Challenge Prelude

i went spluring $$$ again.

ironically, i've been spending big whenever i am near to poverty level.

i have now only $70 left in my bank account.

I always keep $500 emergency spare cash in my savings account, damnit.
time to utilise it...sigh.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

wanted to have a good steamboat meal because I'm 2 days away from the WRX challenge.

Yup, I'm in the 1st round of challenge.

(to get in the WRX challenge, there are 3 rounds.
1st round = be one of the lucky callers to selected radio station for the past few weeks
2nd round = pick up the lucky pingpong ball at Ngee Ann Civic Plaza
3rd round = put your hand on a WRX among with 300 plus contestants. The last one remaining wins the car)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the end, my intention of a great meal turn out up to be a full day rehearsal for WRX days without food.



i splurged on many little gifts for friends around me.
maybe tats why i super peeved today.
nvm, in the end i ate all the cookies & chocolates meant for others.


Yum Yum.
