Guess it's time to blog

Yeap, time to blog. What shall I blog? Hmmz..

I'm sick. Stupid flu. Don't know how I got it. I remember on Wednesday, went to Simlim with Des and Clement. I remember sneezing alot when I was there. I remember runny nose, watery eyes, irritated throat. Carried on sneezing when I reached home. On Thursday, I was home most of the day, but didn't feel sick at all. Yesterday went downstairs to have breakfast with Dad. Ate roti prata. After I came up, about 30 minutes later, the stupid flu came. Can't believe it. It just came like that. Oh well, life sucks.

All of a sudden, it is 2 weeks to departure. Unfortunately, I don't feel any special feelings. Maybe it's because of this stupid flu that's dulling my senses. Argh..stop blogging!!!!

Childishness

I can't believe how childish people can get sometimes. It is almost disgusting. Some people just don't grow up. How sad the world is.

Nothing much else I want to say at this point of time.

yawnz

Went to meet des for lunch today. After that we went over to Bishan Stadium to queue for tickets for this Sunday's match. Tickets went on sale at 12noon, and we reached there at 12.15pm. There was already a very long (ok, relatively long considering this is a Singapore match and yah, Singapore match) queue. After queueing for a whole bloody hour, about 10 people from our turn, the dreaded sign went up.

"Grandstand tickets sold out"

To think the first time I actually queued up to buy tickets to a Singapore match and grandstand tickets are sold out. How I miss Malaysia Cup days when my uncle always managed to get tickets, sometimes even in the balcony. Oh well, it doesn't really matter to me, though it's a bit disappointing not being able to get grandstand tickets. It's going to be probably the last match played in the National Stadium. According to my dad, the National Stadium is going to be torn down sometime this year. Oh well, so many years of service and they are just going to tear it down like that, with no plans of rebuilding it. Actually have a lot of thoughts about it, but after thinking, this IS Singapore. Can't expect much from it.

Anyway, the real point of this entry. On the way home, Des and I were talking about the Left Behind series. Found out today that because of this book, Des decided to name his daughter Chloe, after a main character in the book. Well, I think I'd mentioned this in this blog some time ago, that I, too, have decided to name my daughter Chloe in the future as well. Have to say, I was pleasantly surprised at this. It's quite interesting both of us thought the same thing after reading the book, but oh well, I guess being friends for so long, 13 years and counting, we sometimes think alike without even realising it. Thought of a few other stuff that Des and I have in common. Both of our favourite football player is Ryan Giggs. Our favourite jersey number is 11, remember having "arguments" over who gets the number when we bought jerseys for our team. In all we had 2 team jerseys, the first one I got the number because I said I wanted it first and the second, we ended up not printing numbers because too many people wanted the number 11 haha... Come to think of it, I guess it's not really coincidence that we ended up going to the same university after all these years. Although we had led quite different lives up to this point, one thing that hasn't changed till this day is our friendship. And for this, I really thank God for. Some people go through their whole life without finding a true bosom buddy. Thankfully, I have one.

Thanks man, bro. I really mean it.

Another Level

Oh well, I was packing my room and found a cd with this song in it. A song with some history. Really quite amazed that I actually found this song after recent events.

I know you've heard these words a hundred other times before
And you've been hurt and so your heart has chose to close the door
Love broke your heart and brought you lies
Look in my eyes
You'll see a love that's deep and true
Tender and strong and all for you
You can trust this love
Honest, that's the honest truth

From the heart
I'm giving you everything, everything
From the heart
I promise you that I'll be there
I'll be there to love you
From the soul
I'm showing you all I feel, all I feel is
From the heart, from the heart

I will protect you and respect you and be all you need
And when you reach for love you'll only need to reach for me
These arms will never let you down
They're staying around
I'll walk with you through every storm
I'll keep you safe, I'll keep you warm
And you'll have no doubt
You're the one I'm living for

From the heart (from the heart baby)
I'm giving you everything (oh) everything (giving you everything)
From the heart (my heart)
I promise you that I'll be there (I'll be there for you)
I'll be there to love you
From the soul
I'm showing you all I feel, all I feel (I'm showing you)
All I feel (all I feel) is
From the heart, from the heart (from the heart)

I'll provide the love you need
Just trust my touch
Believe in me
I'll never make you cry
Givin' all I got with all I got inside

From the heart
I'm giving you everything, everything (giving you everything)
From the heart (from my heart)
I promise you that I'll be there (I'll be there to love you, love you, ooh)
I'll be there to love you (ohh)
From the soul (my soul)
I'm showing you all I feel (all I feel) all I feel (all I feel) is
From the heart (the heart) from the heart

Ooh, from the heart, from the heart..

Another Level - From the Heart

Boredom

I can't believe how bored I'm feeling right now. The whole week I'd been stuck at home.

Monday.
Feeling terribly under the weather, might be due to being in the rain for 2 consecutive days. Saturday was New Year's Day, family went for kway chup then MacRitchie Reservoir for a walk. Halfway through it rained and we rushed back to shelter. Sunday went to the National Stadium to watch Singapore against Myanmar with Des. Caught in the rain again but at least it was an interesting match. Alot of fighting, not much football. As a result of these two days, had a sore throat(mainly due to the shouting on Sunday) as well as feeling feverish and body ache the whole day.

Tuesday and Wednesday.
Oh well, my toe started giving me problems. Basically the nail decided to come off. It wasn't too painful but it was enough to disable me from wearing any footwear. Tried to cut it out but only managed to cut out half of it. Even had trouble sleeping because it was bleeding as well. I had to sleep with my foot hanging from the edge of the mattress to prevent getting any bloodstains on it. Needless to say, mood wasn't exactly peachy this couple of days.

Thursday.
Think my dad got pissed at seeing me "suffer". So he dragged me to see Dr. Koh and the doctor simply pulled out the remaining nail. It wasn't exactly painful, but that feeling when he was doing it was a feeling that I didn't really like. Kind of disgusting actually. Now I have half a toenail in my right mother toe. Amazingly though, my appetite came immediately after the "surgery". Went to eat chicken rice, but it wasn't too nice. Oh well, can't really remember how I spent the rest of the day.

Friday = Today.
Was supposed to meet Terrence but he overslept and was not feeling too well. Met up with NF instead for duck rice. Excluding the trip to the doctor's and my grandma's place for dinner on Thursday, it was the first outing I had all week. The duck rice, well, standard has dropped. It seemed like they've changed management. Oh well, food is a dying trade. Talked a bit on Uberture and its problems. Let's just say, I'm glad I didn't put in much time on it. Borrowed Top Gun from him and watched it in the afternoon. Oh, the memories. Before today, I haven't really met anyone who didn't like Top Gun. Today, I met 4, 3 of whom haven't even watched it. Baffled, oh well I guess to each their own.

Oh well, I don't really know what I want to do tomorrow. I guess it'll be more staying at home, slacking. Maybe I'll watch I, Robot tomorrow. Then again, if anyone want to go play snooker, please let me know. I'll accept almost any challenge. Haha

Darn, I'm bored.
