and after a crappy morning, today soon turned into feel-good day, and all it took was one simple act. a blind man was at toa payoh interchange, trying to find his way around. and i helped him around without having to be asked, or waiting for another person to help him. yeap, good deeds do make you feel good. it's actually the second time i've helped a blind person at that exact same place, odd eh?
and also, feeling good (well not really) about giving the smartest ever (so i declare) remark to an insurance agent to chase them off.
but still, everytime i think of work, i get put off. sigh.

seems like this place has been turned into an avenue where people read(?) about my grievances with the army. i was tempted once again today, but i shall spare you, my faithful readers. yes, all two of you.
i shan't rant about mike riley and the arsenal match either, no use crying over spilt milk. but i sure hope van nistelrooy gets a hefty ban and fine, that really was a cynical foul on ashley cole.
in fact, i don't even know why i'm writing anything now. probably because i'm in camp, and i've got nothing to do at 10:41pm. oh but you've already heard all of that before too.
so i've decided that this shall be a cleverly disguised plan to get my reader(s) to talk to me. perhaps leave a comment or two (hint hint) telling me what they think, or that they think nothing at all, or perhaps how good looking i am. whatever it is, do drop me a line, i'm bored stiff here, at least something'll keep me occupied in the day.
provided my boss doesnt screw me over again. oh there i go again, couldn't resist it could i.

to encourage people to eat healthy, shouldnt they make health food cheaper than junk food? because since it already tastes worse, having it so much more expensive doesnt help much either! the world's against having healthy people.
i think everyone will reach a point when they've eaten enough junk food and just get sick of it. i think i've reached that point (ok judging by the 6 packs of bee bee i ate a coupla days ago, i've gotta be kidding myself). well sort of anyway, since in the past few months i've been watching my diet very carefully. and you know what? i really do feel a lot better than before. many benefits are tangible; i'm more energetic - while i used to take afternoon naps all the time before, nowadays i can last through a whole day doing work. i feel fitter, and have no problems motivating myself (even to go for runs, which yes, i absolutely detest). those who dont believe me, come see for yourself ;). so to you who is holding that pack of twistie's (baked not fried!), drop it right now and get yourself a life, literally.
of course that's not to say i don't enjoy my food, i do treat myself to the occasional pack of m&m's, and i eat tidbits in moderation (best done by stealing from friends, you can't possibly eat that much!). but really, healthy and good tasting food is everywhere, you just have to make the effort to find it.
jeez, i sound like a nag even to myself.
and desmond>> the author's dave barry, i believe.
i love my shures!

i still cant stop thinking about the blue bar cd. maybe i should just go and buy it. but i really should save. ah heck. i need a second job.
now what is it about people and money. there's never enough to go around, so we're all just unhappy about it. not that i'm not guilty of it, it's just a flaw i'd think majority of us should get rid of.
ok. here's a coupla things i should get done by the end of this year.
1. improve my posture!
2. start saving for when i won't have an income.
3. get my work done on time.
speaking of point 3. i really should get down to that. i've found that out about myself recently, due to the amount of work that's been coming my way. when i've got work to do, i either do it really well, or i just dont do it at all until i get forced to (usually the stuff i dont like very much). well i'm glad to announce that i take great pride in my work, and what work i finish usually draws praise, but no use in that when half of my work's undone/overdue. i gotta stop procrastinating. and start doing the work i dont like.
and i gotta get rid of the bad posture7 that i developed from young. i've put in effort to sit straight recently and i think my posture's improved already.
so basically, i just gotta stop being a slouch. in all senses of the word.
you know, i think it's amazing how many things that happen in our childhood have an impact when we grow older. what they say about those years being 'formative' years are totally true, imo. a lot of us dont realise it, but many of our physical traits are not totally genetic.
i think i should have sung more when i was younger! i really think it does make a difference, eric tsang's the perfect example! he wasnt born with the voice, he said it was because when he was young and sang songs with his friends, he was always made to sing the female parts, and that's why his voice never broke. i love music, i love singing, but my vocal range just dont cut it. but well i'll live with what i have.
that said, i think we all simply dont appreciate what we already have.

bad coupla days at work. everything at work is just pissing me off. last minute changes which give little notice for us to manouvre. people cancelling on me at the last moment. my boss. how much can a guy take? and my boss isn't the only culprit this time. it's been endless work since 1pm friday. work sleep and work again. on a bloody weekend too. not that i shirk my work, but doing others' work all the time frustrates. i need to rip someone's head off.
thank God i'm leaving this shithole soon, because the place is really falling apart now, and there's little i, nor anyone else at my level can do about it. we've done our best to keep the ship afloat, but if the captain doesn't want to steer, we're got no direction ultimately.
bad, bad day.

does anyone know of any shops that stock high-end headphones/earphones. actually just earphones would do fine since i've already got headphones. because the only one i know of now is hung brothers at sim lim, and that doesnt give me much bargaining power.
(by high-end i dont mean sony! more along the lines of shure and etymotics. sennheiser too but they dont make good earphones.)

and it's been a week
since i last wrote anything
here it gets boring
- - - - - - - - - -
wow a haiku.
and now, a sonnet.
- - - - - - - - - -
i'd like to proclaim
that my job's a great joy
but there's really no aim
other than eating chips ahoy
working in green
doesn't work for me
it's always been
a pain can't you see
in recent times, these days
i get really bored
i want to get out of this place
i want to ord.
(ok i know it doesnt really rhyme, but it does if you read it out as ord as in odd.
really!)
oh can't you see
i want to ORD.
(now
that's a rhyme)
- - - - - - - - - -
yeah. i'm bored. 5 months seems like ages away, but i know it's almost here. i mean, it's only like, half a year. and that's really really really short. come on, help me kid myself. but i really need a holiday! who wants to go overseassssssssss???
anyway who has a lucky number that'll win me some 4d. singapore pools seems to keep going against me, whether it's soccer betting, 4d, toto or big sweep. i bought 3227 the other day, and they happily came up with 3207 in the consolation prizes, and then 3247 as the first prize the next draw. whoopee.

and finally, the big 10k. (in hits, of course.)
and to those who didnt believe me when i said i'd strike big sweep, ha! guess what??? you were right.
anyway today was quite a crap day as i found out that i'm not getting my understudy anymore, because my boss is taking him to be his 2IC. which kinda sucks, but i guess i should've expected it. and well i shant bitch anymore about my boss, since i've done enough of that, and since i know that 2 people who share the same boss also read my blog, eh daniel/guonan?
so it's gonna be another -at least- 2 months of slogging away. today wasnt a particularly good day, having had a puke-inducing headache for much of the day, and then right at the end of the day being shot a huge arrow with a 24hr deadline. story of my life. maybe i should just go to some corner and hide and sob to myself.
in other news, the earth has just crashed into the sun. oh wait, that's tomorrow's news.

i realise what my blog needs more of. pictures! but i'm currently stuck in a place that shall remain unnamed so that'll have to wait for another day.
meanwhile, i'm getting that itch again. the one that strikes every month. it makes me so uncomfortable, i might even turn cranky sometimes. yes it's that time of the month again.
i need to shop.
