im lost for words

hey hey…

Signs put up to warn against people from wearing loose items such as caps,slippers at carnivals are there for a reason and i can vouch for that…i spent last weekend with my lady in Tebrau City, Johor where there was a carnival going on…we had fun at the bumper cars, up the romantic ferris wheel for a good shot of the place,this 360 fast-spinning bucket chair kind of thing and finally the whopper of a ride called Challenger…that will for surely rip my b***s out but i was cool…cant show my nerves to my gerl…here it goes…in my seat…ahh,it aint shit…im cool…arggghhhh!….mommy!!!!….my b***s,dont run run away!!!…argggggh…my New Eras,dont run away!!!….argggghhh…friggin ride…

It was cool…no shit i cant take;p

Went into the mall, got some Yoshinoya udon, scoured the malls for some bargains…al-ikhsan was lookin good but did not hold any interest at that point…la senza had some nice lingerie but malady was skeptical about the products there…oh yes…got myself a Napolean Dynamite figurine that costs 10 dollars…amazing find…and went off happy.wheee….

Went to movies, i did, and caught a couple of shows. first up transamerica.felicity huffman portrayal of a transexual is very convincing and the show itself is not too dreary in its storyline or too draggy (unlike the other overhyped gay/cross-gender based movie of this year). very light-hearted and dialogue is engaging.thought and research can be seen in her acting and the relationship between father/mother-to-be and son is hysterical but the Oedipal references were quite disturbing if you thought real hard about it.(7.5/10)

next,v for vendetta. Very entertaining show which pulls out all the stops to please the crowd. as it was loosely based on Alan Moore’s graphic novel,the emphasis should be on the word "loosely". a lot was left to be desired if pre-judgement was based on the knowledge of reading the novel. It did not really make any justification for the literary masterpiece (ive read it twice) but as i say again, capitalist priorities are the major factor here.kudos to Natalie Portman’s acting and for still looking so sweet with a bald look.kinda sexy too.and hugo weaving for giving a brilliant voiceover to V. (7.5/10) 

Something horrific happened today…fashion wise that is…i may not be the slickest cat in town but i do know when someone needs a major wardrobe change…

1.  3 guys with the same blonde gelled up hairdo, kicks and (gasp) same adidas jackets but in different colorways(light blue,orange and navy blue).what were they thinking? okay,it may be dope-looking on Wu Tang Clan but i guess it doesnt really cut it here…

2.   this is even worst…while i was happily going up the escalator at City Hall,i was stopped in my tracks by a young chap standing in the middle…not in a hurry,i didnt bother to barge my way through like i always do…so i wait and stared blankly ahead until i notice the chap’s pants…it was a mesh type of basketball jersey material pants that could be seen through…(urgh!)…and he had chicken legs for that matter(argh)…and no leg hair!(help me!)…and thongs! (KNNbccb)…that is a sin in every context, i say…absolutely horrendous.

til later,keep ya hats on.

So me and fizzie went to Suhanah’s (a classmate of our’s back in college) wedding last weekend together and turned out to be real nice. Did not catch the actual hoo-ha but we managed to meet the couple for a few minutes as we had arrived late due to my work commitments. Since we had a couple of hours in hand to wait for Sue, the two of us yakked about topics ranging from "When is it your turn?" to "My mom hates that dumbass" to "Horse-y!, Horse-y!". We had fun. For me, I guess.

congratulations to the newlyweds, Riduan and Sue!

til later,keep ya hats on.

howdy,

Much have gone by and im glad to say that the week went by with a few interesting incidents. let me tell chronologically starting with last Saturday.

25/2/06

Went out early in the morning to meet up with zhak at geylang serai to catch a glimpse of a busy market weekend. This place holds a lot memories as these were the only times i went out with my mom on a weekly basis when i was a lil young’un…with much going on when i was a kid,spent some quality time with my mom then…i still do till this day to try and go to the market with my mom…yes,yes,i can be a momma’s boy but filial piety is a good trait to have and not one to be ashamed about…so we went about taking photos and i was quite guilty to see zhak lugging around a huge bag (more on that later) so we went back to my place to grab my stuff for the flea market we had in the afternoon. And old nenek (granny) went down the elevator with us and she was curious why a couple of young cats like us were doin at an old flat like that and i explained that we wanted to reminesce…i bade her farewell and fizzie was curious who i bade farewell to when i was on the phone with her…the photos will be up later.

We reached Cineleisure and zhak’s bag snapped at the handle (read his blog for more details…http://waiting-room.blogspot.com/2006/03/omg-selloutz.html)…sold off 5 tees and 1 cd…and i sold off a tee that sikin liked…why cant ladies tell their significant others directly about things they like or dont like? sometimes we may argue about this but in the end, we’d be diplomatic and yes, the men will have to succumb to chivalry and manja (pamper) the fairer sex (i love doin that tho);p…made quite a small margin of profit and indefintely, made space in my room and wardrobe. quite disappointed that couldnt sell my toys at all but maybe its the location.

Was dead tired at the end:p

27/2/06   

One key note to couples out there,never leave your recorded videos on your handphones. There’s a high possibility that you might lose your handphone and you might become the next local Paris Hilton. i dont know if your ratings my soar like Paris but im sure as hell, you gonna get a lot of coverage…watched some videos of young local couples going at it from a source (i wont say where tho becos ive deleted it too,hehe) and im trying to figure it out. Siglap secondary, sats personnel,married individuals,geli lah!,etc…those are some things connected with those videos. funny that this topic has become a bone of contention in society as we live in a very sexual stimulant environment…hey,its all up to choice.

28/2/06

Went back to Geylang Serai for the aftermath and to get some more pictures before it is pulled down.Seeing it all fall down makes me tear in the eye a bit…the pictures will be up soon;p

1/3/06

Me and zhak went for the Fort Minor concert and we had quite a bit of fun. we dont really fancy them that much but it held quite a certain interest in our hip-hop influence as technically, they are the first hip-hop band to perform in a full-fledged concert. saw May and Choy there and they were cute with their sychronized dance routines but ran away upon seeing this trio of guys gesticulating and cavorting together in a very questionable and distasteful manner. hey, they (the trio) turned me off too. we trudged off after the concert and made a couple of silly clips with me interviewing zhak about the show.

me at the start of the show

dj cheapshot kicks off the show

the 3 mcs…Tak,Shinoda and Ryu.

Shout out to the supporting crew, Black Violin, they were cool with the string performance.Btw, all these were taken with my mobile so sorry for the bad quality but its good comin from a phone though. Shameless plug for my new SLVR L7 here;p

Safe Area Gorazde by Joe Sacco…good shit

13 single issues of comics i bought but did not read.

Details and Complex magazine…for my fix for good fashion sense;p
