There's some discussion going round Singapore lately, and it all has to do with our MM Lee's declaration that it only takes twenty minutes to get from one corner of our dear island to another corner.

Twenty minutes! 20! Excuse me uncle, are you living on the correct island or not?

I wait 20 mintues waiting for SMRT Service 171 from Woodlands Interchange every morning at 0730hrs! Peak hour hor...

It takes me 20 bloody minutes for the bus to crawl from the Salvation Army bus stop along Upper Bukit Timah to the one opposite King Albert Park. And another 20 minutes to my final destination at ACS Barker Road!

Eh uncle, who are you trying to bluff??? Maybe one day, the whole government should just take public transport to wherever they are going, during peak hour. Do not notify SBS or SMRT for that matter, so that they could put out more buses/services just for show/to impress/to cast delusions of granduer, on that SPECIAL SPECIAL day only.

If you are late for parliament, please, sack yourselves.

It's me

Feels kinda weird really, after such a long hiatus. Well, can't only expect Pang to keep this thing going. My life so far can been summarised into three basic catergories...

Things I have done:

Piss my boss off.
Started looking for a new job.
Saving lucre for Taiwan trip.
Stopped buying clothing.
Cleaning my room.
Redecorate my room.

Things I have not done:

Study.
Serious exercise.
Not antagonize the boss further.
Buy Halo 3.
Buy FM 2008.
Take my driving licence.
Club.

Things I have bought:



As you can see, life is zero on the thrill factor, zilch on the hot factor and numero uno on the dud factor.

Here's some food for thought. Would you rather earn four million dollars in 4 days or be the most perfect person in 4 days? I would take the money.

After all, no one is perfect

again...

how come it's me posting again. if you still happen to read this blog.
*shrug. i have no idea either.
i am typing all this words and alphabets...erm...just to not let this place died away. well, i guess we all have been busy.

i dunno how to continue from here...so let me think about it.
ok here goes...
i am sorry that i turned down several soccer gatherings as i am too tired and tied up with INTERESTING projects and reports.
but most importantly i think i just want to make my guilty conscience feel better by not going out too much.

we have not been to town at all for the past couples of month and are seriously demoralise. we are seriously deprive of coffee and chais. life has been dreary.

if you happen to see me...say 'hi' and please avoid "smu is cool" or "wah you wakeboard, rich ar!". my life and finance are in dire state and whoever almighty is up there, maybe you can do something to help me? 4d is good, toto better, big sweep best. THANKS!

ya wakeboard. i conclude that whoever read this blog are not interested at all. but still i ask...
do you wanna...wake? just leave a tag. we love to accommodate.

yes school been kinda tiresome. i just achieve an accolade by scoring the lowest in class for one of my mid-term. i have near zero zest to study. lacking sleep i guess. yawn~~

an ah teong is sitting beside me right now. making noises and blasting music into his ears. i guess i hate him. yes i do.

stuck in a moment. i cant get out of.
but nvm...life like this.
there still aplenty of jokes around and retards for me to mock at.
so pang is still here, when you see me, i'll still be smiling.

cheers!

invasion.

i am a chinese. dark hair, black eyes and i speak mandarin. yes fluently. i love chinese. chinese character are so beautifully constructed that each and every is like an art form.

but damn. i hate PRC aka ah teongs. they spoil the whole culture with their invasion in our country and the bad image they brought along with them. this is especially so when you are surrounded by them in every aspect of your life.
they are employed to sell food in hawker centres, construction sites are filled with them, they patrol orchard in large group and they dominate the school library making it their little homeland.
why are they everywhere? i cant blame them for banging too much that their government was forced to implement the 1-child policy but don't overspill to our country what. it's already so damn bloody small.
walking around with their noisy electronic dictionary, reserved place in library, talking aloud in public, annoying people with their rude behaviour, and showing off their horrendous fashion sense and they think they are always right. hello....ah teong you are in Singapore.
i pitied the younger generation. back in my sec sch days, my sch was ALMOST all singaporean, with only a couple of PRC. i don't mind. we speak in our beloved and respected singlish that we adored. now, every school will soon be invaded by them. oh damn, i wont be shock when my kid or nephew start speaking in english heavy accentuated PRC slang.
no offence, i know several PRC. they are fine. but definitely NOT when they are in a group or the entire army come invading into our small country.
why? you guys owned the largest land mass and there are no jobs and place for education? and you choose to overspill to my puny home. where's the logic?

"oi! ah teong! shuddup la! this is the library la!!!"

It's been awhile

Ok so it's been awhile since i've posted.

I guess the working life is kinda hectic, not much of a life nowadays except work, wakeboarding and slacking at home.

Wakeboarding rocks tho.

Feel like taking up drumming again, but i don't have the time. Anyone wanna buy a drumset? Second-hand but practically brand new.

I own a wakeboard, wicked sick.

Work still sucks.

I love wakeboarding.

Just got a new pair of board short. Team Relax.

Need more money and time to shop. Hah!

And ofcourse more time to wakeboard too.

Feel like finding a way to go overseas to work for half a year or so, just to experience the lifestyle and stuff.

Dreams.

Hang tight on the raley, we're still around.

bye bye summer...

the summer of 2007 has bidded farewell and as time passed everything changes.
this blog has been deserted as authors and readers both begin to forget that such blog ever existed.
just like the many things in life.
as time passed we somehow forget that many shit actually happen and ever existed on this planet.
fear not.
this is the nature of life. somehow rather it is a path and course that was pre-determined to happen sooner or later.

damn. what crap did i just write above?
give me back my summer....
next one seem far.
yawn~~

dusty...

the blog looks deserted and layers of dust have settled upon the ancient post blogged long ago...
apologies to all to who still come here to check on whether there are any updates.

pang has been slogging his free time in office and finally his summer job stint has come to an end. but still sch work occupy his time as he laze around on his free time trying to recuperate those lost energy and sleep that he dearly missed.
pang can only look forward to his occasion wakeboarding session which can pump some adrenaline into his tired-looking soul.

well i am not getting one though.

yawn~~
again... who wanna wake?

day 1.

"eh 2 hours on plane do what?"
if you ask that question while on budget air,
why dun you flip open their inflight magazine and maybe...
try their sudoku and see whether it's worth buying, like what some people did.

"wah ice cream and waffle!"
make sure you stay away from these when u have diarrhoea.
Advice come with experience

"eh damn tired sia..."
"ya la...dunno why...maybe jet lag."
"go back hotel watch CSI la..."
"orh."

Return of the BUS BULLY and......here comes the retards.

howdy! the bus guru is back.... for more a**holic adventure. hence, i will continue to describe those irritable F**kers on the bus....here goes...

Number 6 - The STINK BUG!
Type: Buay Tahan
Description: the moment they come aboard or the moment you come close....you can smell the sourish, salty or wadeva smell u can think of. sweaty...smelly...dirty...BAWU la!! they look like rotten fish just netted from the sea of hell, with the unkempt dirty hair and clothes soaking wet with thousand yrs old sweat. don't hesitate please, press the bell and puke at the next stop if you're nice. otherwise, i dun think he smell any different if you puke on him.

Number 7 - The chocolate punksters
Type: F**K OFF la
Description: This chocolate skin punk dress like some clown from a local circus act and they will board the bus in herd just like animals hang out. And of course their brain size is small as a cow and so they thought they owned the bus. So they decide to clown around in the bus, like it's their circus stage and make a fool out of themselves. EVERYONE, and i mean ALL hate their them, but somehow i believe their pea size brain make them to slow to realise. F**K OFF la!

Number 8 - The modern bengs/lians (SGNs)
Type: F**K OFF la
Description: i believe the sony walkman phone are their choice of mobile. they simple love to 'share' their music with passengers on the bus. ya ya! those thrashy childish music and actions are disgusting. i don't think they have quite caught up with the technology of earphones/headphones yet. maybe, we can't blame them, SGNs anyway.
*For definition of SGNs please refer to previous post. In addition, people classified under SGNs may not be refering to below 21, there are some who can't seem to outgrow this phase.

Number 9 - The love birds
Type: Curse and Swear + Buay Tahan
Description: They flew on the bus as if it's written on the bus display that it's heading towards 'Love Paradise'. eh 190 ends at CCK la! i believe dearest bryan has had complaint umpteen times about the actions and behaviours of the love birds. they come in pairs and are obvious to us. but somehow everything seem oblivious to them.

Number 10 - The lost patient
Type: Buay Tahan
Description: This bunch of patient get lost while heading to IMH, so they start talking to everyone they see or cannot see to get a clue on going back. So if they start talking to you, or NO ONE beside you, help them please. give them direction and some clues on their whereabout. Buay tahan right....well better than sitting at bus-stop waiting for bus and patient point middle fingers at us and scold us vulgarity.
___________________________________________________________________

Number -1(number below 0 are not bully, they are retarded) - Book Worm
Description: the bus is squeezy and everyone is trying to move in to let off some space. then she try to take out a book while moving in. after which, she starts reading while moving in, squeezing and trying to maintain her balance. even i who is sitting down feel uncomfortable. guess her brain is fried from too much reading

Number -2 - Stiletto Rocks!
Description: stiletto rocks! and i meant it literally. to all dearest ladies, i know you all love stilettos but please refrain from wearing if you know your balance is lousy and will be taking a bus. your balancing act is unglamorous and uncomfortable. trust me, yours truly, get motion sickness watching you rocking.

Number -3 - Hungry ghost
Description: i can say nothing more. they gobble food and drink on the bus like it's some posh restaurants. god damn retard. don't believe such exits, i just encounter one today. idiot.

Random generic thoughts by Bryan

Bryan is posting again.

So I've been absent. No one's missing me anyway.

Can't decide between Zouk or MoS. Life's real tough these days.

Listen to At Last by Diana Krall and Lou Rawls. Great stuff there.

Being good looking does not equate attraction..to me at least.

Starting again on t-shirt buying spree.

WOMAD is coming to town, again.

Some people know they are really dumb but persist in acting that way.

TCC's growing rather popular nowadays. Even the one at NAFA is packed.

Better start looking for other brands. Graniph's going to be the next Billabong.

GST increase is everywhere! Even my favourite Sapporo potatoe snacks have risen by 2 cents.

And not mentioning Mee Soto and Lor Mee cup noodles! Increase of 2 cents too.

Why isn't my salary increased by 2%? After all, I work in Government Schools Too.

Kazbah rocks my socks..but what is hydrosol ink though?

I'm Short, Fat and Ugly.

Random depressing thoughts... Stan

David Gemmell is dead. He died a year ago and i didn't even know.

Robert Jordan is still alive.

Suddenly i noticed how whiny and irritating i sound some times.

I think i love a girl. I don't think she has any interest in a future between us.

I have doubts. What do i know about love? More about hate.

I'm working for the money not for the enjoyment of my job.

Yet is enjoyment not self-created?

Drinking alot again alone.

I am afraid i cannot fulfill my dreams during my lifetime.

I hate myself.

I think i'm self-centered. Alot of 'I's in this post eh?

There is no ice and i am drinking my liquor warm.

This post should be renamed "I..." yet this way i can lengthen the post.

Love is only a feeling, not fading away but pointless.

My parents are returning home from the 2 weeks trip to Vietnam.

I have other things to say, but they cannot see the light of day.

Starlight, i will be chasing a starlight.
For the rest of my life...
I don't know if it's worth it anymore.

blogging

stan say "eh blog leh"
ok lor. so i decide to write something.
the past weeks have been boring. think at least for the 3 of us, the rest of the 06 maybe having a blast of their life. *shrug.
well....nothing much. meeting up for coffee is sort of the usual stuff. though nowadays we meet after work at bukit timah. crapping, discussing, laughing, smirking, lamenting, sighing, whining and... whatever.
anyway, we 3 are going phuket in august. main purposes: chill, tan, getaway.
so if u want anything we'll try to get. but on damn tight budget, judging from our accommodation and stuffs. but think we'll make the best.
yawn~~ ending a boring day with lousy thoughts hypnotizing my brain.
still....cheers people~

a glass in the urinal. some crap shit people do in club.

away for 3 days...

As usual, trip down to malaysia wasn't impressive. the bus ride was long, tedious and tiring, the view ain't scenic and definitely lack of chais wherever you go.

sad to say but it's the truth. mr. chocolote skin aint doing enough to their own country. even locals are slamming them. what's going on? i just love home.

then, i saw a interesting headlines on their newspaper. wtf! they just shoot themselves in the feet and trying to shift some blame on us. how funny. the article describes that singapore gang are organising all the crimes in JB and it's us that cause the crime rate to increase in JB. well done, neighbour. why dun you tell me how incompetent your law enforcers are. furthermore, are you trying to imply that those thieves, burglars, robbers, muggers, rapists in JB are so disorganise and lousy that they even need the Singapore ah bengs to organise. get alive!

arh well... as i was heading home. the calm, wide water caught my eyes. wah! wake! they should do something to this magnificent water and not pollute it by setting factory by the sides. maybe i can spend a little coffee money on their officials and do something to it. wake.

at least, i am back home now. where nice, new cars roam the street and clean apartment fill our land. i wont say it's a great place to all but at least i like it. home.

Signs your friend is wasted and what to do... Part One

It's a Saturday night and you're in a club with a couple friends, there to celebrate a common friend's birthday.

Lots and lots of drinks and dancing. One of your friend starts talking weird, worse if it's the birthday boy/girl. Maybe he or she isn't even talking, just standing one side quietly, waiting to strike on your new shoes.

So here i, Stanley, the expert on being drunk and dealing with drunkards offer some advice to all.

Some general advice.
Drunk friends can appear anytime, anywhere, beware and be warned.
Always have a camera handy so you can take funny photos or if possible videos of your friend being drunk and doing funny stuff.



Signs to see if your friend is drunk:
Sign: He/She starts talking with a slur and keeps calling you their buddy or keeps apologizing for no particular reason.
What to do: This is actually a good sign. Means your friend is still somewhat conscious. Careful tho, a few more drinks and said friend might start becoming silent...

Sign: After a few glasses of vodka neat or a flaming Lamborghini and a tequila shot. Your friend turns quiet. It's a bit too quiet...
What to do: Bring your friend to the washroom or prepare a plastic bag. Or you can pretend not to notice and constantly keep your distance. The best is to leave a friend or 2 between you and him/her if you're chilling by the tunnel in Zouk or hope he doesn't vomit on you while playing mahjong.

Sign: Your friend starts crying and tells you how much he/she loves you, the girl/boyfriend, parents and asks why he doesn't have their love. The mucus flies and a box of tissues ain't even enough. Puke all over the kitchen basin and lots of lots of tears. Your friend is considering suicide as an option.
What to do: Woah this is serious man! You might not be a psychologist but there are some things you can do. You can try dragging your friend to the shower, dunk him/her a couple times. Usually wakes em up. Forcing them to take a nice hot shower works too. If all else fails and your friend ends up crying and whining once again all over the table. Knock him/her out. Just do it.

unfair and unknown

"that's unfair", he exclaimed.
"nothing is fair", the teacher retort.
how true i thought. Back in primary school, my friend always grumble about being unfair. Till now, it's still so but there's nothing we can do about it. you can slog your entire life. be an honest man. polite and considerate. bloody nice like an angel on mortal earth. but somehow, life's somehow treat that asshole beside you better than any other. that's unfair. why? you ask. why? i ask. why? we ask. *shrug.

we are don't know. the more we try to seek for the answer, life and reality just give you a tighter slap across your dumb-founded face. freaking pain. oh hell yeah!
that's the unknown. everyone wonder about this, worry about that, contemplate on this, reconsider on that. damn it. damn life. just damn unfair.

shucks. life's a joke. life's a tragic. life's a happy ending. life's great. life's cool. life's about.........
it's about whatever. whatever you think, you want, you will be.

i just did a crap post. life............zzz.

Post Drought

Well it's been quite awhile since us bastards have posted...

1 word... Work.

Well it's the school holidays, civilian life means work work work and well even though it's the school holidays, people who work in schools still have to work. So basically all 3 of us are busy.

Thus... Post drought. Check back frequently, we still may post once in awhile. When we feel like it. Like right now.

The Bus Bully Part I

Today, pang the self-proclaim bus guru will reveal the different types of bus bullies that are out in the market. Those that make you curse and swear silently when you met them, those who you just want to show them the 'Finger' and ask them to F**K off the bus, those that simply make you Buay Tahaaaaan........


Number 1 - The Wailing Baby
Type: Buay Tahan
Description: They just cry, shout and scream non-stop but YOU can do NOTHING about it. For some unknown reason this type of bus bully is totally out of control. Their high-pitch scream will make deaf people feel hopeful and dog deaf. For us, we just suck our thumb cause even ipod can't save us.

Number 2 - The Atomic Head
Type: Curse and Swear silently
Description: They fall asleep the moment they sit down. then their head are filled with explosive waiting to drop on the nearest shoulder available. and YOU! are the unfortunate target. closer and closer it drop, the more u siam the lower it get. you nudge them, it stopped but the moment their eyes close it come again. *Not applicable to chais.

Number 3 - The Big Thigh
Type: Curse and Swear Silently
Description: You finally find a sit but he's a 'lil big size. No offence to bigger size people. But some just feel they deserve 2 seats! i try to push my way in... wah lao eh! but the sheer weight of their thigh simply overwhelm me. my groin are so tightly squeezed, my balls gonna pop! it feel worse than standing up.

Number 4 - This my SPOT!
Type: F**K OFF la!
Description: Hate the morning crowd when it's jam packed. However, the ride will be okay if everyone is considerate and move in. then one mother-F**ker simply scotch-taped up that spot and stand there like a statue. "EH! wtf! you doing!! move in la!!!", people in the front will suffer as they will experience the life of a can sardine in singapore.

Number 5 - The Persistent Aunty
Type: Hurry Up and F**k Off la
Description: You are resting when you can on the bus or just rushing for time. Then..."do-do-do-do-do" and again and again and again. on Bendy bus there are 6 scanners! wah lao, aunty if got problem scanning card while getting down, never mind la!!! why you have to try all the scanners, you like the sound isit??? then you bother the bus driver then try again and again. HELLO! just get off la, at most i return you that few cents you think you will lu-gi.

JUNE!

Boys and girls JUNE is here! the GSS is here....
yeah i know Singapore sales are still expensive despite claiming 'sales!' everywhere...but open your eyes big, keep your ears clean and your shopping sensor alert and you can definitely sweep up some good deals happening around you. i am no shopping guru but there's some common sensical tips available:

1. forget brandless stuffs, GSS are when huge brands start to get generous for a while. erm, size are pretty limited but for me....no worries. hahaha! i wear the smallest.

2. note the date. go ASAP. but Beware! skip the weekend. head down on a weekday afternoon, avoid the crowd and salesperson are friendlier and more willing to serve.

3. flip through magazines, newspapers and whatever free publications you can lay your hands on. coupons, adverts, and tons of retailers are trying to attract you. eh but remember to do the filtering yourself.

4. credit and debit card are in your wallet for something. credit cards have the most unbelievable deals around which you may not believe sometimes. they give...you TAKE la!!

5. i know most people like me are damn freaking poor. heck la! got good deal just buy, just take! especially mouth-watering brand! Just buy them!!!

6. Last but not least. crowd are everywhere. meaning...chais are everywhere! got chais just bio, got chance just fish. but please do keep your hands to yourself. some things are better with your other half. if you don't have the other half, suck your thumbS when shopping.
