Whats wrong with posting pics... Sigh...

Hmm, ive tried for the umpteen time to upload pics to this blog... just cant do it!!!! arrrgghhhhh!!!!!!! its been 2.5 days!! whats wrong... bother bother bother... no more pics folks till this gets sorted out... cheerios... its really past past past bedtime...

Intoxicated with worthless jargons...

This is funny... Mental humour... Just last week I had a final showdown with an associate... I dun really know if associate is a right term... I've learnt through business and various ties, associate is a hard term to define... Friendship is an even harder term to define...

I had the final letgo today. I am glad I did it. Something which was kept for awhile finally got let out. I am not sure I like it but it is defnitely better than being threatened!!!

Some friends of friends I know claimed to be of help to them. Yet they offered assistance with a tag... They asked for help and they didnt do much to prove they can pay it off.......................... So those who cant pay off are baddies... So what does that make those who give on impulse and ask for returns? Immature? I am unsure...

Some searching for short term reliefs? Some looking at long term investments? Some trying for quick get-rich schemes? Some lost in the confusion of this right that wrong... *Sigh* A bloody mangled mess out there in this urban jungle... Not my piece of cake...

I have recently worked at a place and got to know of many stuffs ongoing. I am not sure I really like it so much and I personally am not a talky person. I hate it to the first degree to be honest. Its a complete waste of time unless something substantial be achieved out of this whole extravaganza... Then what? Who claims what? Who shows off what? Then who is or are the little lambs to be sacrificed? This whole lot of bullshit is getting on my nerves to save peoples' face. Its pure utter crap.

Alot of this bullshit is put out to save faces. But there is often a price to pay. People who give does not give for free. There is an old saying, there is no free lunch in this world. I learnt this when I was in Pri 1. My dad drilled it into us since Pri 1. No matter how desparate we are, never let people take advantage of us. When that happens, never confront it, just walk away. There will be a chance someday. My dad said these fine words, "Singapore is only that big. Through and through it will come to light some day. Dont be sad if you are wronged. Be sad if you do not try your best to assist. Dont be too uptight if we are wronged, we just do what is clear to our conscience and help who is in need. Someday tomorrow it will bring light. We need not be in the limelight, coz if we are in the limelight, we are not help. We are stealing light." Daddy said one more thing, "Those fine help dont come with those who talk. But with those who do the details on the side."

I guess I respect my dad for many things. He is a lousy home-maker to be honest. He gambles and often talks big. But tis is one sure thing he got into my head. Thank you and thank you, daddy. :)

When one contemplates giving the truths, we end up being the baddie. If we say too much, we too become the baddie. Either ways, we too become baddies... Just let it be. Let heavens decide what is best. My guess.

It is a right for people to talk... Sometimes, I wonder, what is the true meaning of life... Being in desparate need and just listening to meaningless talk talk talk... Will it eventuate to anything? Unsure... We listen and listen... I have learnt not to comment from my dad... Then again, those in need must be worthy of assistance before anything can be rendered... This comes full circle to "there is no free lunch in this world"...

This complete bull brings me to one conclusion, "folks in need, bet on toto!!!! strike it rich and depend on yourself!!!!!!"

My conclusion in response to me dad on me playing games and such as the world has so many cheaters is... "Daddy, I love to play online strategy games as I dont have to meet people who will hurt me. Well, they dont meet me in person to hurt me emotionally and physically... People who play online games comes from everywhere in this world. They can be good, bad, evil, kind. We dont know. Yeah, there are plenty of cheaters in this world. I know... What can one do to stop them? We cant. We just have to be careful... We cant fight, so we dont go out fighting... We are civilised lot of educated people... But we can silently protect those we care about and render timely assistance if we are abled to."

This world is a big hefty game play out there. Its all about talking. Sometimes, to me, things goes beyond talking. There are alot alot alot of things out there that require consideration, planning, research and a calm steady mind.

I cant talk and am bad at talking. I will not change what my dad taught me coz it is value. I am 32. I guess I have a life full of adventures to back what my dad said... If I am wronged, so be it. If I am applauded, so be it. I dont give a shit to be honest. I wont fight unless physical or verbal abuse is given without respect...

I went for outward bound instructor training in 1991. We were there for a week, at the same time, went through this drill where we had to convey a message through a group of 6 and pass it on through 10 groups of people... I learnt then, that whatever first said will never end up the same at the end of the day. So why fight? Why fret? Why blue? Deal with it and get over it.

To surmise, I am sad that my 'associate' is much lesser than I thought... And glad to find out how selfish mankind can be to save one's face and one's pocket... Am also glad to know that my half-dead feet didnt venture into deader grounds and cause myself more financial shit than I already am. Perhaps end of the day, this is a blessing in disguise to save all from destruction...

Past 1.5 yrs had been a most gruelling time for me and I have too the rightful right not to share what hurts me most. Today, I did with my friend. And I am glad I did... I dont have to share with everyone whom I meet. But I did today with a friend whom I think is a friend. Money is not something I can waste today. Coz I am getting old... I am a single fighter... I dont have any backups. I dont have people whom I can turn to and talk to and depend on. I depend on myself...... Sad but true. I survived the past 10 years on my own without my parents beside me... People can rob us of our wealth, pride, dignity, whatever, they cant rob us of what knowledge we gain and keep in our brains. Knowledge is the greatest add-on to us which will create wealth.

I dont have to win, in fact, I dont want to win... But I dont want to lose further into situations I know cant make me better... My boss once told me, "When we are poor, we cant even afford to be sick... When we are poor, we have to be extra careful how we mange our lives and how we manage our expenses... We have to be careful how we drive, how we park the car, how to avoid getting stupid expenses, coz we just dont have the money to pay..." And I find supreme truth in his words. Thank you too Butch Lee... Wondering how you are these days...

I am tired... I cried and cried couple of times and drank and drank... Am tired... This exposure of truths kinda drained my energy... It took me much effort to divulge personal info... I am glad coz it freed me from being in the hands of worthless 'aids'... Instead of hearing it from others, lets hear it from the one itself... Right?

Well, after saying it and crying, I am both sad and happy. Saying the sad stuffs makes me moody and cry-baby... Not saying it too makes me lambs to sacrifiers... So either way, I am the fuck-up lamb nonetheless... So, wth... Just eat, drink and be merry. We get killed always so what the hack...

Nite all... Its a rather longy nite. Apologies... For my age, I am getting old... Better pen it down then forget it totally...

Rustic Feel, Leftover from British times...

I love R&R places with a theme. I see potential in places like tat in our local places of eats and R&Rs... I've been hunting for so many years... As far as I learnt to drive and got me own car, I've been hunting down places like tat... NSEW, most parts of Singapore, I must say... Hehehe... One of my hobbies, eat, drink!!!!!!! Most ppl who know me will think that I am bullshitting... Ha! I am not. Sometimes, love to eat does not always = fat. Then again, I drink more than I eat... Sigh... :p

Over the years, some make it, some dont. Open and close. Combi of factors, food didnt taste right, too pricey, place just isnt right, seating areas too cramp, etc, etc... Not really sure what the main causes are. People change, taste change, new places pop up, etc, etc...

Here's a nice place up for dev at some stage I supposed... Its gonna be hip some day. :)

A national monument. A piece of our history.



CHICKEN FISH ANYONE ????


Went fishing 12-Jul... Here's one of the funny catches...
Was told that this fish tastes like chicken????? I didnt get a chance to taste it though.

Hmm, would like to take more pics out at sea but always too busy doing something or afraid of donating my phone to our local seawaters... Heehh... :p

Hairy Clam @ Sushi Tei


Went for dinner at Sushi Tei one evening with friends. It was a treat actually! Cant remember the date now. Apparently, the hairy clam was freshly flown tat day. Hehehe, didnt manage to pic it when they serve...
We were too greedy to remember taking pics......... :p

Here's the leftover, hairy shell for your eyes. Eye-opener...
