Kho Pha Ngan 2007

hello singapore
yes i'm back from bangkok and kho phangan
sadly nope i din't bring a camera this time around..
i shot the whole visit on a video cam instead
and all i can say is.. wow..wow wowo wow

not in the world of warcraft 'wow' sense.. but..yea..
things that will stick in my mind for a very long time

• the amount of boobies i saw in phangan..

i mean.. i've heard of nude beaches and stuff.. but this ang mohs dun even blink an eye lid when taking off their bikini tops just so that their boobies see a lil bit of sunshine from otherwise what would have been bleak weather from where they come from.. still.. the amount of boobies.. that's like.. wow...

• the amount of alcohol i had...

mineral water? coke? orange juice? when beer is cheaper and whisky cost less den an hour of internet in phangan..you got to set your priorities right.

• the journey to pha ngan

ok.. the flight from sin - bkk was 2hrs.. but from bkk to kho phangan.. was an excruciating 20hr ride on bus/boat.. so i spent 40hrs just to commute between the island and bangkok.. which is.. wow.. i died on the bus.. gosh what about all the other ang mohs who are twice my size.. heh

• the shopping list

1. birkies..birkies..birkies
   
2. a pair of green onitsuka tiger trainers


3. Clinique happy for men
   
4. assorted pairs of shorts


5. lamps...


6. belts..

so basically shoppin was a blast..as usual..

• the fullmoon party

well.. this one..wow.. wow.. partied from 9pm - 7am.. on the beaches of had-rin..too bad a 'certain somebody' coudln't have made it with me..

i mean.. i dun wanna take things out personally..but i think he's a shame to every single malay i noe.. i mean.. lying to me about not being able to go is one..and.. lying to me about the fact that the tix could have been transferred..i mean.. does he think im stupid enough not to be able to check it out?

zaher wahab..wat a bloody dog..

anywaes.. the view of the moon.. the stars.. exceptional on kho pha ngan.. i'd def go there again..

i'd post photos as soon as roland emails them to me..

rock on..

fridae the 13th

well.. it was an interesting day..
i would love to blog about what happened at work so much..
but after readin danson's blog.. i believe he had a better account of what really happened..

so i shall cut and paste from his blog, for your viewing pleasure...

St James

Friday the 13 was the most happening day in these 5 months I have worked. It was so dramatic, akin to watching a Taiwanese drama serial. All the fighting, cursing and swearing in the high class gallery bar. A happy reunion turned... The twist of events was so sudden that I couldn't comprehend what happened.

The friend who was chased away was the one who spent lavishly on the girls. St James's top security had to come in break apart the rowdy crowd. Should they come a minute later, the first fight in gallery would break up. To be exact, a cat and dog fight.Eventually the group broke up and all was that was left were broken glasses, torned vouchers, bottle cards and a voluptuous lady sprawling on the ground helplessly. She was one of the customers I served. She actually got so drunk that she ended up in a state of demonic possession.

For the next 2 hours, she tucked herself into the trash bags and slept on the gallery floor. Occasionally, she will go into fits, screaming nonsense and crying. It was a sickly sight. She totally lost it.The next hour was an reenactment of the movie Exorcist. Her eyes rolled up and all that was seen was white. She swing her head around like a mad women, vomit spilling out from the side of her mouth. Her weak husband was no match for her constant struggle. She threw her limbs all over the place, hurting everyone within a 1m radius. She screamed for help, screamed for her own death. Soon, she was knocking her head on the edges of the table and the steel button stool.

I have never seen anybody so drunk, to the extent of seeking death. It was a horrifying sight watching this lump of meat crawling on the floor.It had taken too long to move her away. Eventually, it was time was all of us to go home. That was not the end of everything.

Public shitting

A sick bastard server from Powerhouse got so drunk that he began vomitting and shitting all over the locker area in St James Power Station. This has to be one of the most horrendous thing I have ever seen in my entire life.He sat at one of the side tables near lockers 240++, with his head glued to the table and hand swinging mid air in a pendulum motion.

Vomit flow out from his mouth and you just cannot imagine how a face would look like with that sticky shit. Every few minute, he would clear his throat by spitting his vomit. Yeah, he's literally drowning in his own vomit.This guy even lost control of his anus. God knows what he is thinking.

He passed motion all over the locker area!!! The most shocking thing was that his faeces were at least shoulder height! He must have cleaned his backside with his hand, and conveniently rubbed those crap on the walls! I could not hold my breathe. The stench infiltrated my nostrils and started polluting my brains.What a night...

thanks to mr danson ang for his contribution - www.midnightleo.blogspot.com

and you thought workin the nite life was boring...
2more weeks to bangkok
i'd be workin monday tuesday friday and saturday this coming week..

with thursday bein the closing ceremony for SHIYEP II
oh wow.. there was an opening ceremony?

To Believe...

and you bleed just to know you're alive..

and i guess a part of me came back to life this week..
things about me that i've forgotten myself..
but something reminded me, of the love that surrounds me..

i bumped into nelson TWICE this week..
he was a senior in NS, n initially i never did quite like him
but towards the end of my first year, i guess he was the closest friend i had
yea, NS ended and our meetups began to be less frequent..
but bumping into him after all this while, it did bring back a smile to my face..

a smile.. that reminded me of the fun i had when nothing else in the world mattered back than..

and on 7 july, i am so glad i took leave from work..
not only was it Hugo Wong's wedding, it was also rachel's 21st birthday..

to Hugo, though we've not known each other for long,
i have utmost respect for you, the responsibility that you have bein both a father and husband..
i am glad to be inspired by a person like you..
it was a sweet, yet simple ceremony, one that i would remember for opening up my heart towards findin a way back into love..

princess dearest..happy 21st...the night was full of memories..

i've no idea where this would take us..
but finally girl, i have something to remember you by..
a wonderful evening of celebration..
to have had you in my arms..
how many birthdays i've missed these 7 years
thank you rachel, for making me believe in the power of trust, and friendship once again..

7/7/07, Live Earth. Your Wedding. Her Birthday.

**thx to azmi for bein the photographer :D

Starbucks is the cocaine of the 21st Century. Discuss.

many ask how i celebrated father's day
many do not know i do not have a father..
well ok that's a little bit of a drag
but truth be told, i've not seen him for the past 4 yrs...

havin said that, it wasn't like he was there when my parents were still together..

so many ceremonies..
so many sports days..
so many plays..

you missed them all..

so while i was sippin my green tea frappucino in starbucks..
there were many young fathers who tried so hard to mollycuddle their children..
was i a horrible kid? did my dad mollycuddle me in any way?

i do not want to bitch and whine about havin a terrible childhood
im sure all of us would have wanted out childhood to have been differently..
and that now, many of us swear that when it's our turn to be mums and dads..
we'd be better than them..i hope you guys are able to keep that promise

me? i can't make that promise.. which is why i don't see myself gettin married to begin with..
** a point where i've reiterated in a previous post..

back to dad..
its funny how things changed when he remarried
its funny, that i still tell people im a single child..
well.. to begin wif i've not yet met my step brothers/sisters..

and at times i joke with my mum that this is why i nv went out with a malay girl..
maybe i'd end up bein wif my step sister's cousin in law's brother's daughter..

how ironic, that i have another family out there..
and yet, i've not seen them, met them..or even know their names..

times like this i find it hard to comprehend as to why a man can be so irresponsible towards his own family...
and yet adopt a new family and shower his grandkids with much affection..affection that was nv shown towards his own son...

i am sorry that i hate you, but you taught me how to.
happy belated father's day, to the father i never knew.

ouch

i wanna thank god for watching over me

i wanna thank the 2 strangers who helped me to the road shoulder

i wanna thank my mum who came all the way for me, who was faster from bukit batok than the bishan ambulance crew..

i love my mum..

it was all minor.. im good.. :D i'll be back at work next week..

post your secrets

while i waited for work to start at 8pm yesterday

i was walkin around Vivo and checked up the most underrated bookstore, PageOne...

you should really check the place out, an extensive range of advert, media, pop culture bks on display, and the best part yet it has not yet been infested by kids like in Borders, or so jam packed with people like in Kino..

so there i was, browsing around.. and i came across a book..and as i flipped the pages, a bold sentence caught my eye..

"each night i still look at your photo.. and i wonder what could have been if you did not move 500miles away..

www.postsecret.blogspot.com

The book is actually a collection of secrets being sent to Mr Frank Warren.

He initiated the 1800-SUICIDE hotline across America, and often encouraged people to make a personalised postcard with their secret written on it..

did he get kicks from reading people's deepest darkest or at times amusing secrets?

well.. probably..

but i guess what was most uplifting is how free the person would have felt, to have seen his/her postcard published online, or even in the book...

"i wished someone knew my secrets so that i don't need to pretend im alright"

that was the postcard published on the last page of the book..

i guess, upon readin secrets of others, you do feel a sense of connection, that someone somewhere out there..

is hurt the same way as you
is scared the same way as you
is confused the same was as you..

let me tell you a secret..

why i dun believe in marriage?

perhaps im scared of being the father, the husband that my dad was to me and my mum..

tell a secret, let it out..

make yourself feel better, make someone out there feel better too..

rachel

once upon a time there was a 14 yr old boy..
one fine day he met a 14 yr old girl..
they fell in love..
one fine day, they fell out of love, and hated one another..

the girl probably din't know how much she changed his life..
how his life would never be the same again..

was he remorseful? probably..
was he hurt? definitely

5 years down the road they met again..

was he happy? but of course yes..
was he wary? a little..
was he still feeling bitter? he would have lied if he said no..

2 yrs on..

the girl's in australia..
the boy's in singapore..

maybe the boy is afraid to be friends because he doesn't want to open his heart to her again..
but i guess what the boy really wants..is to apologise to the girl..

for everything.. for anything.. he had ever done to her..

to the girl who i met when there wasn't a place for her in my heart..

the day i flew off the bike

hello i just flew off my motorbike.

it was 2.30am, around Kranji Dam.

skidded la bro

abrasion on the right knee, sprained the right ankle too.

the bike was ok.

anyway, let's see where the bike brought me to this week

yes, this is nice. omar gives one thumb up~~

what? pork? nooooooo

im sure this has no pork..

what? lard..? fuck..

heh..lard?pork.. like i ever gave a damn..

the one where it went untitled

when you're dreaming with a broken heart

waking up is the hardest part...

im lovin' it

gosh.. it's been a while since my last post..

well.. i have finally shrugged off the post trip blues.. and onwards with post trip community project.. heh

in retrospect.. it has been an interesting 2weeks.. finally decided upon RedBull's proposal **i refuse to be refered to as a member of Rojak**

it looked solid..really well polished.. good presentation skills.. but at the end of it all.. the team with the feasible idea won.. shrugs.. anyway.. thumbs up to Team Redbull.. we rocked their socks

The RedBull Lineup, Jan-Feb 2007

Yixin.. me, kaiyan, peizhi.. pearl.. Go Team RedBull~~~ **and one chang beer

on the bright side we'd be workin with youths.. though i felt.. if budget/framework wasn't an issue.. our proposal would havebeen given the heads up.. along with th efact that almost every other delegation member chose our project.. you could really have seen the expression on lionels/des/yj's face.. heh.. but hey.. youth gambling.. im lovin it..

though im terribly pleased with the current programs group lineup

The lovely Robyn.. who finally gets to boss me around since she's the committee head

this was taken..in youth outreach, HK


and this.. my sayang.. pearl.. at youth outreach HK Bldg's roof.. we tried to look like robyn..
my sayang.. you rock.. we rock.. glad we're still workin together in Programs.. :D:D:D

oh.. she's the deputy of the committee.. the same Pub Pairing for spore leg.. heh

yes.. my mat bro.. zee.. FINALLY.. we're workin together in the same committee.. YEAHH..

taken along avenue of stars.. with the awesome tsim tsa shui at the backdrop..

and also.. mr yixin.. from Team RedBull.. **what a mat.. what a playa...**

and guest starring.. Miss Chan Huimin.. the Treasurer.. and who is also an honorary member of the Programs Committee.. taken at Sugar.. LanKwaiFong, HK

7 days in HongKong..

From the dizzying lights of Kowloon, to the watering holes of LanKwaiFong

From the beauty of Victoria Peak to the majestic BigBuddha

From Bruce Lee, to the pandas in Ocean Park.

I miss them all, but most of all i miss you

sufferin from post-trip blues, and probably i cant blog properly

so a proper outline of what went down in HK would be up later on

i just wanna say however, i MISS YOU LOADS ~~~~~~

** pluck part two **

3 MORE DAYS

me in hong kong... YAYYYY

so many trials, and tribulations

catfights, tears, blood, sweat.. sleepless nights

WE'RE GOING HK...mwahahahahahhaha

anywho, i went pluck yesterday with the purple and the pinkie/muffins/robbobyn

with robbobyn's self timed camera

outside pluck

on a separate note altogether

i dun get it when people, walk out of your life, and out of a sudden just wanna come back in

wats up with that?

you dun just drop a msn msg and expect things to get better

pretty much ambivalent towards you since then

i hope you find clarity in life

but most importantly, i wish that you would seek happiness in your life

we had something good goin on

but it was thrown away

nothing happened between us

i've moved on.. what about you?

the mat and the muffins

anyway i failed my assessment again.. shrugs..

30 points.. gosh worse then my first time

well then had to rush 6pm to bugis mrt.. had a 'nice' walk in the rain with her 'SUPER BIG' pink umbrella.. shrugs.. INVEST IN BIGGER UMBRELLAS.. or ask your mum to make a new one for you haha

had nice ice cream at Pluck, apparently a new boutique/cafe at Haji Lane..

but apparently they did not have a LOT OF THINGS on that day.. except the Butterscotch Sundae.. **well you could have just saved my time and tell me that you only have that so that i did not have to rattle the whole menu to you and to always be replied with 'no, we're out of it'

and then we went to BBBC for some nice fish and chips, Hoegardeen and a whole night of talking, yakking and getting to know one another better

i had fun, i hope you did too
