Freebie dispenser

Yesterday, while queuing up at the supermarket to pay for my lozenges, I was approached by a shifty guy. He asked in a shaky voice, "Lao xiong, you mei you xiang yen?" I was like, what the fuck? Do I look like a cigarette dispenser to you? And for you guys' information, I'm reformed now..haha.

Today, right after work, this malay boy asked me for a dollar. Since when did begging become popular in Singapore? I looked at him, smiled and say no. Bwahaha. What does a young boy like him need money from a stranger for? To buy super glue and get high at a void deck?

So maybe I'll meet another person tomorrow who needs like my atm card or something. Shrugs. I look so charitable meh? I avoid flag-day people like the plague and I stare down at survey takers. What gives man?

无路用的人

每天我醒来在床上就在发呆 我的脑袋跟天花板一样空白
昨天在干嘛 明天要干嘛 我的灵魂 似乎不在我的身上
唉呀 未接电话那么多 我想 狗屁事也非常多
我希望 这是一场梦 可以让我 轻轻松松忘掉很多

What? one week and no post.
I was dying to read something.
Haven't exercised this past week for several reasons.. an office job makes you real sluggish.

There's this guy who makes customized sneakers and makes it sound easy.. he gets white vans and colors with fabric marker and then spray over with waterproof coating. If it's so easy.. I wanna try!

Art?

Chanced upon this site. Somehow the anti-globalisation message is lost on me upon seeing a fat middle-aged ass. Hmmm. Kentucky fried chicken anyone?

american idol

I think last night's episode was the only one I enjoyed this season. They sang all my favorite songs.. don't let the sun go down on me, can't get no satisfaction, crying, chain of fools, on the radio, and man, i feel like a woman!
Bo Bice is going to win. They don't need more winners who do r&b.

American Idol

Who will win? I'm really not in favour of Carrie...

Great. Now Kylie has breast cancer and her tour might be axed. How chow-chow?

to whom it may concern

ktv. sat. onz?

Survivor!

Like the reality series, my office politics has a new twist. Just yesterday, my colleagues were bitching about my boss Mr Jimmy Kong cos he screwed up an order and we, the lower rank had to re-do his shit for him. Turns out that they also knew that Jimmy scolded me last fri for surfing the net. Suddenly all of them were telling me to be wary of him, telling me about how he rejected their leave while he himself went on leave, how he always fuck up his own assignment. Well looks can be deceiving. Looks like i can only trust the driver Richard and Aunty Sharon now. Till then, i shall wait for the next tribal council.

the aunties strike back

two auntie attacks within 5 mins of each other

one while i was queueing up at four leaves, i turned grap another piece of bread, and the auntie that was behind me was suddenly infront, when reached from behind her to get my tray, which was infront of her, she half turned, stiffened, and proceeded to pretend i did not exist. such lack of integrity...

second, while i was about to enter the MRT, which, incidentally just arrived, this auntie chiong out of nowhere and nudged me aside to enter first... the train wasn't crowded, the doors had just opened, so wtf?



oh ya guess who i met today? haha some clues: he was in his signature orange berms and was playing with his baby! hehe

i wonder...

have you been to a supermarket recently? i did this morning. Seeing the piles and piles of, u know, veges, meat, etc, i pondered. how long did it take for this han zhi to grow to such a size, that it should be fit for sale and consumption? And having that figure, how long then, would it take for that han zhi to be consumed? pretty big difference there i suppose. ya ya, i technology, modern farming methods... blah blah... is the world really producing food fast enough for its predominant species to consume? hah it probably is la (i hope) but even so, how long can we sustain this rate of production? Indefinitely? i think not. the human population is still growing, no? (actually i don't know, that was an honest question, but i think it is la) is it possible that we, as a species, are flourishing too well for our own good? (fucking ourselves, in more ways than one) i'm sure greater minds than mine have pondered this as well, why else would people come up with ideas such as space colonies and the like? this leads me to wonder if killer diseases like AIDS and cancer are actually good for the human species in the long run... a higher power's efforts to save us from crowding ourselves to death, u know? what do u guys think? I'm not trying to be funny or anything, i really wanna know. pls pls, comment

and another thing,
problem: over-population of earth
proposed solution: space colonies?

how bout condoms man?

sigh....

hey parry, just becos ur family members have a very weird, twisted comprehension of christianity, can u PLEASE DUN FUCK GOD?


i mean, look at it this way la, christianity has been around for 2000 yrs, and before that, the jewish religion much further back to the time of moses, and the exodus from egypt. It is the largest religion in the world today. Do u honestly think that, all these people share these exact values and beliefs as your aunts? that they, of all things, PRAY FOR THE HEALTH OF THEIR KOI?!


dude, give your religion a chance la. U are smart enough to know that there is much more to christianity than what ever lame shit ur family has been telling you. If they are misguided and preachy, then instead of sitting there and kao peh kao bu, go and learn what u can, give them a lecture and make them shut the fuck up la...


i think that there is much wisdom in christian teachings, u just have to listen carefully to ther right people. and seive out all the rubbish...

hey the rest, back me up man, i wanna turn this joker from the dark side...

no alarms and no surprises

Votrex sounds like quite the over achiever, even temp work also can get promoted.
Regarding the msn thing, I was quite excited to get my own lap top.. until I found out that the messenger only connects internally.. wonder if i can get the web version.
The excel database is so going to kill me next week.

Surprise 2

This was really quite another surprise. My earlier plans to ditch the restaurant and move on to a new line have been given a new twist. I will be promoted to a captain, so says my boss. Now this uncannily resembles pre-42 days, before promotion, when all are full of excitement and vigour before realising that having to juggle more work and responsbilities simply sux. Worth any pay raise? Got to think about that...

Auntie Jealousy?

The aunties at work are jealous because my boss is exceptionally nice to me. The most venomous one who sits opposite me has been sniping at me. Like, what's the point man? I'm a temp worker and I'm not stealing your rice bowl. I even take my time to help you to find a solution to automate your task so your workload can be reduced. Grr. Women are really vats of vinegar. More than once this week that I have been called the boss' new buddy and people have been saying mean things. Well...Whatever man. Parry sure has a first rate experience of this too~

MSN should never be used in the office. Today I got the web version running and my brain promptly stopped work way before lunch. I was just hoping that six might come sooner so I can leave while engaging in several conversations online. (parry, tong, zhicheng...)

All you people should be ashamed of yourself for using MSN at work!

Last week, I heard a familiar voice before I saw the person approach me outside a toilet...His hair is so blond, my god...Guess who? Hahaha.

Surprise

It was quite a surprise. Walking towards the MRT station after work, I was startled to hear my name being called out along Boat Quay. And I never expected to see them -- Auyong Johnson, Pek Kunli, XiaoQiang and the bunch! Went into a pub where XiaoQiang's sister works, had some beer and sang a song. Sometimes when I think that I could forget these people, ignore their existence (at least for the better part of a year) and repress some tainted memories, they spring right in front of you and, for some reason, things seem different with them.
Ah well, they are clearing leave and clearly leaving within a month. The herald of the university phase! Cheers~

Just a blonde joke

A blonde woman was speeding down the road in the little red sports car and was pulled over by a woman police officer, who was also a blonde. When the cop asked to see the blonde's driver's licence, she dug through her purse, getting progressively more agitated.

"What does it look like?", she finally asked.

The policewoman replied, "It's square and it has your picture on it."

The driver finally found a square mirror, looked at it and handed it to the policewoman.

"Here you are", she said.

The blonde officer looked at the mirror, then handed it back saying, "Okay, you can go. I didn't realise you were a cop."

Question of the day: is your favorite noodle mee pok or mee kia?

Survive That!

The inevitable has happened. I have relunctantly been pulled into office politics. It seems that whenever someone is on mc, my colleagues will bitch about that person. Brings me back the nostalgic dayz of NS, BITCHING other people. Thankfully NS experience of handling men came in handy( Haha bet they didn't see that coming). The line 'I dunno how to do this, i'm only a temp staff, i dunno' works to my favor. An office is an urban jungle. Everybody is a contestant on Survivor.

Kingdom of Heaven!

Missing Pens

Today, my superior, the company's financial controller, complained that he is always missing pens. And my direct boss, the company's finance and analysis manager complained that the company's finance department got no calculator. It's so ironic that even in the commercial world, such trivial issues like missing pens still exist. Brings back memories of camp where the blardy cos got no pen and have to steal from dunno where. And all my pens missing from my desk so I had to resort to keeping them under lock and key. Once, I remember sgt chooon kpkb because somebody took his stationary...who else but our mr dominic?

Always guard your pens carefully!

The Crimson Room

Wow... Some cool stuff.
Escape from the Crimson Room if you can!
Then try the Viridian Room when you complete that!

AH SOHS

Gentlemen, to add on to my recent post on my blog, i have more to say. NEVER EVER underestimate the abilities of an Ah Soh. Think the rivalry between China and Japan or North and South Korea is intense, u ain't seen nothing yet. Just visit my bus stop. What may seem like ur ordinary Ah Soh next door, looking feeble and frail, waiting for the bus. Well but once bus 100 or 135 appears, my battle with them starts. I pick a spot hoping the bus will stop there but within a few feet, An AH Soh will shoulder bang me off balance to cut me. When the door opens, the 100m race is on. They are faster than Maurice Greene off the block. They will sprint up to board the bus and scan their cards. Think its the end? Nah... Just like the All Blacks and Wallabies rugby scrum, they will push and shove people out of their way to land their big fat ass on that gold plated seat. End of battle? Not yet. When they have reach their stop and are ready to alight, they will again push their way to the exit door. Even though the bus hasn't stop, they will push anyones' arm blocking their way. They don't seem to understand that people hold on to railings for support while the bus is moving and that when the bus eventually stop they will release their hold to give way. These Aunties deserve a salute.....FROM MY MIDDLE FINGER.... Till then every morning is a new battle.
