you know how blog posts start?

when the feeling of wanting to type something out tiptoes on the edge, i get a tirrade of wonderful ideas of how i'm going to put them all into one piece of coherrent, flowing prose. but that never comes into being. what if i could type with thoughts? what if my fingers were as fast as my mind could churn up ideas? what if i could express even the vaugest of emotions, that slight wisp of feelings in that fleeting moment?

most likely my friends and family will think i'm mad. sometimes i wonder if i'm the only one thinking about thinking.

haha. i just bought sandman 8: worlds end. it's really. really. good. travellers from the different planes of existence (a necropolite professor and his two apprentices from necropolis, two humans, a fairy, a centaur and other assortments to characters) get stranded in a tavern because there's a reality storm raging outside. and they tell stories to wait them out. one tells a story of how this man gets lost in an image of a city he once knew so well. the city sleeps, and the city dreamt, and the poor man got lost in the city's dream. in the beginning of that story, before all this happens to him, he's sitting on the electric train, thinking to himself. (i shall try to recall exactly what his thoughts were) "sometimes i wonder what i would be like if this train suddenly gets transported to an alien planet. i wonder how long it would be before we were forced to talk to each other. i wonder who would make love to whom. and i wonder whom we shall eat first when we get hungry, and i'm slightly ashamed of my thoughts"

gaiman at his best.

here's something i read in the life of pi. they managed a zoo and as they were going to close the zoo and migrate, they had a lot of logistical issues: "to sell a gerbil (or was it another small mammal), the paperwork involve is a much as an elephant. to sell an elephant, the paperwork is as much as a whale. and you must never try to sell a whale"

haha...

, what happens now?

it has been a long, long while since i've blogged. sorry guys. i used to be a blog-surfer too, but lately, hmm... i've been feeling too lazy to go online too.

thus, you rarely see me online. in fact, i feel lazy to do anything at all. shi yuan's letter to me dated goodness-knows-when is still left unreplied, and for that my friend, i'm truly sorry. i shall get onto it as soon as this lazy bug leaves me.

so, what exactly have i been doing? well? for starters last wednesday, me and a couple of my friends from my office, tania and chong went all the way to sunway pyramid for a karaoke session. =) that was fun. and to my singaporean friends, yes, it you really DID read the word 'pyramid' there just now. a minature one that houses a shopping mall inside, complete with a sphinx outside. so when you drop by, if you are so curious to see a copycat on such an open scale, i'll get you all there. anyway, the singing session was fun. my friends all sang chinese cheena songs. aiyoh, i had an overdose of jolin tsai and those all-too-forgetable (well, to me at least) pop stars. i think jolin's quite chun though...hahaha... but still! i can't understand a word she is singing!

i've got to extract my wisdom teeth on my lower jaw. i just went to see a dentist. woah. help. i have to go for minor surgery. my wisdom teeth, because of my small jaw, are lying on their sides and it's like a purpose-built housing area for bacteria and plaque. i'll show you the x-rays if i have the time larh. (yes, they did take x-rays. they put a 1inch X 1 inch piece of film in my mouth and they shot the rays onto it, through my cheek and thus we'll be able to see the teeth. haha. my wisdom tooth are horizontal, so i've gotta remove them.there'll swell for a few days and then i've gotta take out the stitches of my gums. haiz...another dental operation.

another piece of news. i'm going to move in with my father. i'm gonna be staying in subang jaya, which is out of the KL area. oh well, enough said. i don't know what it'll be like. it's been 10+ years since i've lived with him under the same roof. hope things go alright.

tah-tah...

Just Another Post

Just Another Post

kind of an obligatory post..but anyway, what has happend to me?? i dunno. things are back to normal at my household, so that's that...

i really don't have the desire to blog about anything for now. life has been almost-unbearably mundane to me...

so tahz!

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday!

today is my mums birthday. must as well be the day our relationship breaks down.

no excuses here. this is for you. YOU HAVE NO BACKBONE, NO CONSCIENCE. YOU HAVE NEITHER THE GUT, NOR THE GUILT, NOR THE HUMILITY TO APOLOGISE!

were parents born to always be correct? i ask you dear readers, if you were a parent, is loving=constant nagging+scolding?

i let you decide.

i got off work yesterday and i lied. i told my mum that i had to pull in overtime, but actually i skipped over to KLCC to get her rm40 worth of tower record vouchers, a card, and an idea. i know you wanted to get the keane CD that would be coming out soon, so i decided to get those vouchers, and maybe print out the cover of the new CD on the card envelope or whatever la, just something special but simple to tell you that we actually know what you want. so...

i get back, secretly write a note on the card, dispense intructions to my brother how to complete it... and get ready for today.

but you come back, and you start scolding and nagging, and i just grit my teeth, "here mum, this is for you."

and you go "hmmmph!"

WHAT THE FUCK!?

not a word of thanks, not a hint of gratitude!

do you lead by example? or do you believe in the "let-you-taste-your-own-medicine" approach? what do you want?

i'm just so fucking sick and tired of facing you everyday just so you can pick a fight between either one of us. sure we make mistakes, but you blow them up so you can let off steam at us, push us around, shout at us! what made you that way? are we your study machines? are we soldiers you can command? do you ever consider how you make us feel? how you've hurt us? you piss my brother off, you're pally with me, you piss me off, you're pally with him. what's going on huh??

tony parsons wrote in his book one, i think, that all parents will irreversibly harm their children.

witness...

the perfect example.
