Of Life & Mixed Feelings

hello public

this will be a short blog entry cause i'm kinda rushing for time. in approximately less than 3 hours from now, i'll be on a bus back to the ferry terminal where i will be shipped back to national safari.

hows life been this week?

well, i got to fire a real weapon and i ridiculously sucked at it. apart from that, nothing much has been the highlight for the week.

i also wont be blogging for the next nine days as i'll be somewhere out in the unknown jungle living life without proper sanitation.

truth be told, i'm having mixed feelings.

a part of me is really excited about living the wild life. about getting down and dirty. but then a part of me is scared. scared about living a life in the wild. scared that i cannot adapt to this new environment. i'm scared that i'm gonna die. scared that i'm gonna see a ghost. scared that i'll be stung or bitten by creepy crawlies. scared that i'll contract some fungal infection cause i cant bathe for 7 days. scared i'll miss my mummy cause i cant call her cause we're arent allowed to bring our hp.

pray for me guys.

alright. i haven been doing any foto entries for a while due to a busy schedule. will do one when i get back. which will be the day before national day. that is, if i'm not dead tired.

i really miss having a shopping spree. all my clothes and pants and starting to get a tad loose. and this gives me a wonderful reason to get a new wadrobe. hohoho.

oh yah. happy 7th month to all my chinese readers who are celebrating!!!

toodles.

Of A Revamp

for now,

Of Readership and Boycotting Israel

hello public

if u're expecting a pictorial entry then sad to say, you'll be dissapointed this time round. i've got a million fotos still left un-uploaded from my digicam but i dont have that mood to upload the pics and blog about them.

"why no mood mr writer?'' and so the public asks.

well firstly, there's been a lacking in readership on my blog.

''how do gauge readership mr writer,'' the public chorused.

well, i base it on three factors. my sitemeter which counts how many times people visit my blog.

secondly, my hug machine. it seems that hugs i've been receiving has been on the extreme low lately and sometimes a staggering stagnant. i once said that if u people like me and love wad u read on my blog, do give me as many hugs as you want. therefore, the cold response to my hug machine only means that people are not enjoying what they read here. it cant be that people dont like me right. i'm like so waaaay loveable. so it must be that my blog is getting boring.

thirdly, i gauge readership on my blog though the comments received. comments can be divided into 2. which is good and bad comments. but apparently, i have received neither.

so, sitemeter dropped in number, hug machine has been on the low lately and comments recieved has been on an occasional once in a blue moon basis. all three factors point to only one thing. LOW READERSHIP.

''so u blog for attention mr writer?'' asks the public quizzically.

i'll be lying if i say i dont somewhat enjoy the attention. but its not really all about the attention. i blog because its therepeutic. i blog because one day i can look back and read about my life. its my online journal.

''but then, if its about your life, why does it matter if other people read it? do you want people to read about your life and know everything?'' the public ask again.

i have no idea why either. i would dare say that i'm quite a private person at certain matters. so why then does readership matters to me when i only blog for myself. am i blogging for people to read? somewhat yes. dont ask me why cause i cant explain it myself.

ah fuck it. i feel so selfish. i blog about me me me. evcerything is me me me me.

have you guys read or seen the news lately. its about israel's invasion in lebanon. for those of you out there who only watch mtv or read only the entertainment section of the news, this is wad happened. 2 israeli soldiers were found in lebanon and kidnapped. what they were doin in lebanon in the first place i have no clue of. and so israel felt unhappy and decided to wage war againt lebanon using the kidnapping of their 2 soldiers as reason. and so with their tanks and high tech military equipments, they invaded this nation. killing more than 300 innocents with one third being children. they bombed the tv station, the power station and affected water suplies. not forgeting also that in that process they demolished homes.

and the israelis are STILL in lebanon furthering their destruction.

and what is the world doin about this. nothing. moreover, america are close allies with israel and thus saying that this invasion are to free the people living their lives under terrorism. and so it supports israel's evil doing. what the fuck is wrong with the united states. they have a terrorist paranoia or smthing.

look at all the 'good' that US has done. attacking afghanistan? the place is like worst than hell now. invading iraq and freeing them from the clutches of saddam hussein? the country is like fucked up now and there has been no progress. now, supporting the demolition of lebanon?

not forgeting also that israel has been smashing palestine non stop for the past decade and more. now lebanon?

who made them god to decide who dies and who lives?

dear readers, i'm looking into a petition to boycott israel products till this war stops. i have done boycotts over denmark products due to their insensitivity to religion for what they call freedom of speech. so when u're buying smthing, take 10 seconds to look at the tag of where its made from. if it says israel. dump it!

i hope u guys take into consideration this boycott. its the least we can do.

thats it for now. gotta prepare stuff to go back to National Safari later.

with love,
toodles.

Of Ribenas and Friends

hello public

woke up today with a terrible pounding in my head. damn those ribenas. i still managed to do a couple of sun salutions though. drank some hot water and did 20 minutes of meditation in the tree position after that. started to feel better after that.

well i've finally managed to settle down my thoughts after yesterday's stupid mistake. i dont wanna talk about it cause u'll think i'm just fucking dumb. but its true, i'm retarded. anyways, so i was going thru the fotos in my digicam, figuring out which ones to upload and blog about. and i've found smthing perfect to blog bout.

its called friends. friends are people who you can go out and have fun with and also be there for you in times of need. so when a fren of mine, horsey, called me down for a chat at ard 10pm saying that she has contracted a disease, i definitely was shocked and worried. she even asked me to bring down a lighter cause she felt depressed and wanted to smoke.

i thought to myself, 'all right, i gotta remain strong and tell her that everything is gonna be alright' on the way down the lift i was like really worried and wondered how to actually talk about it with her. then as i reached first floor, i saw her face, smiling w i d e l y . then from the corner of my eye, i saw squirrel and hello kitty coming from the back. they were carrying a cake.

O M G !!!!!!!!!!!!!



















this bunch of gals decided to have a little gathering at my void deck to celebrate my going off to army which was the happenning the next day. they brought tidbits, a cheesecake frm bread talk, a card and a nice little keychain with the words TLLM on it.

truth be told, i was fucking shocked when i saw it all happen. i never expected anything like this to crop up. hahaha. but it was definitely a nice suprise. we sat down and chatted till it was time for them to catch their last bus home.

i love you guys lots. erm, like how a brother loves his sisters that is. ahhahahahaa.

so the first i thing i did after being stuck in tekong for 2 weeks was to meet up with them. its was realy fun. we had dinner at Breeks and drinks at TCC later in the night.





















i definitely enjoyed myself. its never about the food or what we do, having fun is all about the company.

toodles.
