I'm back to reality and to the great tragedy that is my life. Man the few days which i spent in Hong Kong, really brought me away physically and emotionally from whatever pain i was feeling. It felt like a dream. Suddenly i didn't have ta care about work, or anything else thats been killing me. Only thing i had to worry about was where to go and what to do.
What did i do in Hong Kong? The biggewst thing i did there was shop shop shop... although my friend Thomas ended up carrying 2 extra travelling bags and i only carried and extra of 3 plastic bags. I guess i'm a really choosey sopper and they didn't have anything that i couldnt get in Singapore.. i WAS hoping to get gothic clothings and my Boss GT6 over ther but they didn't have neither :( oh well. at least i got a cool looking wallet, a cool leather bracelet and a Hellraiser figurine of Pinhead :D
Hong Kong is SO much like Singpaore... if you don't count the language they speak and the congestion of posters n ads hanging from the buildings itd almost seem like you've never left Singapore. The portions of food they give for a meal you buy there is huge though... bigger than Singapore.. it's a wonder that there are many people who are skinny there... hmm mabe its cus theres lesser escalators there n more walking.. or maybe its cus they server a bigger portion at meals n people are too full to eat any extra dessert. One thing that the people share in common in Hong Kong and SIngapore though is the kiasuism... yeap... they still crowd to the entrance of the MTR (their version of the MRT).
Well its back to work tomorrow... i dunno how i'm gonna pull myself together to start work again... *sigh* back to reality and my tragedy.

Just a day away!!! Woohoo Hong Kong here i come... hmm the song below is a pretty sad song ta sing when ur leaving but i like the chorus. You never know what might happen... actually thats true every day, every hour, every minute and every second of someones life. Who knows? The next moment you might not see your closest friend or you most hated enemy. Ahhh enufff of dreary stuff... i'm going to HONG KONG!!!!
Already packed my bags.. whats left are the toiletries and my handphone charger. This time tomorrow i'll be on the way to Changi airport Terminal 2 to meet Thomas, my poly friend, and we'd probably be having supper and loitering around till 6 when we leave Singapore behind... hmmm just as i'm writing this i suddenly had a twinge in my heart... leaving behind my friends... i never had this before... i guess its cus im socialising more wit tem these days and have more close friends then i ever had... One things for sure... i'm gonna miss Elena ALOT :)Hope she has a safe journey.

I'm ... I'm ...
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn
The taxi's waitin', he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could die
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go
I'm ...
There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
I'll tell you now, they don't mean a thing
Every place I go, I think of you
Every song I sing, I sing for you
When I come back I'll wear your wedding ring
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go
Now the time has come to leave you
One more time, oh, let me kiss you
And close your eyes and I'll be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
About the times that I won't have to say ...
Oh, kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go
And I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go
But I'm leaving on a jet plane
(Ah ah ah ah)
Leaving on a jet plane
(Ah ah ah ah)
Leaving on a jet plane
(Ah ah ah ah)
Leaving on a jet plane
(Ah ah ah ah)
Leaving on a jet plane
(Ah ah ah ah)
Leaving on a jet plane
(Ah ah ah ah)
Leaving on a jet plane
(Ah ah ah ah)
Leaving on a jet plane
(Ah ah ah ah)
(Leaving) On a jet plane

hmmm sudden mood change today. Just a speck of misery appeared out of the blue. A sad little thought came n went. But as i was playing my guitar just now it just ebbed away and when Paul said i was sounding good that just made me feel good again. heh.. strange how the smallest passing comment can lift your spirits.
The same could also be said for the reverse sometimes. No matter how much ppl dun really care what others say i think the hurt you feel in your heart is similar to the hurt ud feel physically in the sense that yes you can control it and maybe even ignore the pain but the fact is the pain is there. To say you don't feel the pain is a lie cus if you don't feel the pain then you must phisycally don't have all the organs needed to feel the pain. Its not that you don't feel the pain. Its tat you can take the pain.
Well anyways i came back home had dinner n watched Mr Bean (im a sucker fer slapstick comedy) followed by Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Pretty uneventful day.. same as all my recent Sundays. Suddenly Sundays aren't as eventful as they were before.. hmm oh well.. 2 more days till my vacation!!! WOOOHOO!!!

WHOA!!! the past 2 day inclusive of today has been one heckuva headbanging fest... sooo friggin tired now.. went ta zombie yesterday and if not for that little handphone incident that happened id have considered it one of the better days at zombie... they were playing ll our favourite songs and we were headbanging and moshing like no tomorrow... we even skanked ard some tables when they started playing paradise city on the video screen :P After yesterday night's enjoyment i slept ard 5 and oni woke up ard 1745 today hehe man i slept deeply.
The fun didnt end there though cus as soon as i woke up, Selina called me up saying that the gig today had already started and everyone was there already. So i woke up got ready n went fer Planet Paradigm. We were once again moshing n headbanging. Abigail plaed pretty cool music for their set. And guess what? The guitarist for Mezavirs was using the multieffects pedal that i wanted to get but can't get cus theres no stock fer it!!! ARRRRR i was practically drooling over the GT6 sitting there right infront of me on stage... *sigh* We went for dinner after that ate a small meal at BK in Plaza and since everyone had a craving for stingray we went to Bedok's 85 hawker centre to have it. Man that was good. And we even finished 2 cups of sugarcane juice each. My excuse is that i didn't have breakfast n dinner cus i slept through them and i jus had rigorous activities fer the past 2 nights.. sothere :P

Wooohooo i went out with Elena for the 1st time last tuesday!!! :)it was great.. we wen ta the movies and then ate pasta at this pasta place near marina square. Played pool (man i sucked at that), and finally just sat at the stairs at Marina square for a chat before we decided to leave. hmmm impression of her... she's friendly, sweet,... ohno she found out im ticklish.., smart :D , sporty and i like her eyes :)(hmm if you're reading this please feel free to tell me your impressions of me :P)
Harry Potter was pretty good.. just as good as the 1st 2 movies and on this 3rd movie after the ending you can't wait to see the next one. Reason? cus it leaves an open end. I went to Sanur after that man it was expensive. We only bought a plate of Sambal KangKong, a plate of fried crispy squid, a plate of mutton rendang and a plate of black peppered chicken and it costs $60!! We shoulda gone to Rice table.. it only costs $20 per person and its all you can eat!! arrrrrrrrr!!!!! well that was Vesak day... oh yeah i also went to a book fair at Suntec. Hmmm not very interesting.. about 70% of the books were chinese ones.
Today was a slow day.. went to work... work work work till about 12 n then it was lunch.. and then work work work... again... n finally home. Basically a BORING day. oh well... one more day till the weekend and another 2 more days after that till HONGKONG!!!! :)
