[ moms and girlfriends ]

hahah guys out there! though i guess deep inside we do look for some semblance of our moms in our partners, but i guess u can't expect them to just be like mom.

some elaboration. our moms, some of them stay at home as housewives. dun expect yours to also be a housewife, u'll end up as the house husband.

come to think of it... u see our dads practically did the same things that we will do. but i guess for girls, alot of them end up doing things that their mums never did.

though all this is definitely subjective. lotsa working mums out there too, like mine.

its interesting how life would be in the future, let's say if we all got married. somehow i'm guessing life won't be the same as it is with our families now.

just another lesson i've learnt! haha

[ so why am i angry? ]

someone just got the brunt of my anger.

somehow i'm angry for someone for changing the course of my life. i'm wondering if i'm really doing what i really like. will i go as far as the rest, who may be motivated be a lifelong dream. for me, all i'm doing is making the best of what i can.

in my past, the only thing i've done that i really like was scouts. and hell yeah, i did it to the best of my abilities, guess i surpassed others, people who may not have felt for it as much as i did.

its strange, life.

isn't it weird how after being pushed down the path alot of the time, where decisions are made by others, some familiar faces, some unfathomable, we sometimes get those rare chances to make a stand about our life?

i guess these are the chances that we get to show what we truly are made of.

i hope i get to make the choices for the rest of my life.

i guess that's all i could wish for, at this point of time. at least even if it went wrong i'd only have myself to blame. not put it on someone else, as i've just been doing.

argh.

well, there's still that future out there that's still supposedly in our hands.

7:42 PM



[ another one ]

that day i dreamt i failed anat pros.

another day, i was in WW2. fighting the japs/germans. but in singapore. battlefield 1942 like feeling. swimming to aircraft carrier. meeting with mum who was leaving country. told me she'll contact me via email. i rejoice and hug my platoon best. hiding in apartments like in the pianist.

and guess wad song i just randomly played.

s club - never had a dream come true.

its the coincidences that's scary.

2:30 AM



[ jailed ]

okay. just had this dream.

scene1 :travelling in some train. late at night. it feels abit like woodlands, but also like CCK (where i used to go for army... hmmm) somehow on the platform i meet my brother, but i'm not supposed to see him there. he's not supposed to see me too so i just walk without him seeing. i guess he sees but he too doesn't want to act like he knows i'm there.

scene 2: jail. suddenly i'm in a cell. true to matrix. the walls are clinically white. nothing in this cell at all. can't send letters to loved ones. really NOTHING to do. and i had to spend like 3 years i think. thought of no contact with outside world with nothing to do really makes me so sad and depressed.

just remembered how i escape. somehow i gain superpowers. like assimilate other ppl's powers. some weird shit. my frens in jail lend me their powers to let me escape.

scene 3: the escape?2 somehow i'm at springleaf. on foot and on the way back. though i know i escaped. suddenly i see cops. (singaporean cops btw). then their radio starts buzzing. about some indian guy who escaped. i musingly tell them its not me. they just complain about their inmates and let me go.

scene 4: as i enter my house, policemen tell the neighbour next door. somehow he's indian too? that they'll definitely catch the crook someday. i spend i few days enjoying the simple pleasures that i lost in jail.

scene 5: i wake up in my room. amidst the usual police sounds, its like an evening. that jobweek feeling... twilight time. i simply walk out of the house. police are like acting as if i'm holding a weapon. my policeman catches me, and says this time he'll make life worse for me.

[my genetic fitness!]

hahah in my search to understand lecture notes on genetic fitness, did this test on your own genetic fitness evaluated...

http://www.okcupid.com/tests/take?testid=6936188936100731841

and here's my results,


142,300 descendants- you're more genetically fit than 47% of the current population -

142,300. Not bad. You're no Mongol warlord, but to have that many copies of your genetic code running around 800 years from now is pretty impressive. You're at the lower end of the scoring spectrum, but, honestly, when you consider that the cheaters, swindlers, and football players of this world are statistically best-equipped to create children, scoring low is something to be proud of. As you'll see below, some of your lines will die out, but nonetheless your genetic material will thrive here on earth for a long time to come. A close friend of mine created a program to generate family trees for this test. It's based on your unique answers. We accounted for sterility, birth rates, death rates, disease, drug abuse, nitwitism, and accidents and came up with this, for you:

[learning to listen to only one voice]

sometimes isn't it so pleasurable to just listen to a song? when u're not doing anything else. just u and the music. how nice.

i guess this concept holds truth for our lives as well. imagine if in your life you have to listen to so many songs sung by so many ppl at the same time? will it still be nice?

lesson for today. one song at a time.

and yes, its mainly going to be my song.

i've always tried to factor in what others say in my life, but sometimes it causes so much turmoil it just isn't worth it.

one again. i find myself taking another step to a place and situation i dun wanna reach.

and sadly, its nobody's fault.

[sleepy]

feeling sleepy. had quite a day. mugging's tough.

so much has happened. feeling just abit older.

can't wait to drive. somehow it has become the only thing to look forward to in my life.

just me and my BMW. cruising. YEAH. aviator shades. girl in seat beside somehow optional, though greatly desired. smooth muscle playing. cruising on expressway, at 120km/h.

doesn't really get any better than that.

seriously.

life be simple.

[sway with me]

the music plays in the background. somehow its still so quiet. too quiet.

"true love always involves a choice"

so much has happened yet i find myself in the same spot. but somehow things have changed in immeasurable ways. even if u go one round, end up in the same spot. things are different. no lying to yourself that u did go that round. that's wad's different.

[bloodied, but unbowed]

yupz. the above describes how i currently feel. somehow i dun feel all that good either, haven't had time to clear up the blood and the deep cuts. guess all i had enough time to do was to push it all aside, stay strong and push on. but after the exams, i'm really due for a good servicing.

learnt something today that helps cope with the loneliness at times and helps me focus on work. i guess its worthwhile to compare life's commitments as different gear ratios, with you having control of the clutch. as much as i thought i could, sticking to one gear has somewhat worn me out, and possibly damaged that gear ratio itself. helps if sometimes, we can just clutch in, change to a new gear and work with that gear for awhile.

more reasons for me to stick to learning manual.

anyhow. had a really scary dream just now. somehow i believe i created it. kinda know wad my worst fear is now.

[miss you]

Did I hear you right?
Cause I thought you said
Let's think it over
You have been my life
And I never planned
Growing old without you

Shadows bleeding through the light
Where the love once shined so bright
Came without a reason
Don't let go on us tonight
Love's not always black and white
Haven't I always loved you?

today morning these lyrics from Almost here seemed ever so true. but by evening, i realised it was just me, overreacting as usual.
