Near accidents Number 1
There was this 'L' plate car, turning right, followed by a a car turning left and me behind the car turning left. After a little confusion and slowing down, I passed the 'L' plate car and looked in and saw a cute, indie, arty-farty kinda girl and almost hit the kerb resulting in a soooper wide turning.

Near accidents Number 2
I was turning right and didn't really pay attention to the huuuuge truck going straight and had to slow swerve here and there to get away from the truck.

Near accidents Number 3
I tried to squeeze between a car and one of those this-is-not-a-safety-barrier barrier and ended up hitting into the this-is-not-a-safety-barrier barrier and my gear-shift thing got bent inwards. Couldn't change gears properly but just managed by jamming my foot inbetween the gear-shift thing and the foot rest. After riding from Jurong to Holland V. I managed to bend the gear back in place.

Near accidents Number 4
There was a spider on my bike.

Overhead at work sometime this week Ican'tmemberwhichdayThursdayIthinkoritcouldbeWednesdayIhavelosttrackofdays.

"If you like cooking, you can teach your maid to cook what you like to eat"

I think she meant If you like to eat, but still......something I read in some diver magazine about a yeear and a half ago never left my brain.

"Singapore is a maid cultured society"

I thin it's ok to have a maid to help with the occasional housework, BUT not as a substitute and getting the maid to
a) look after the kids,
b) do all the cooking,
c) look after the kids or
d) take care of the kids

Kids still need the parents there man. If you're too busy, at least don't treat your maid like dirt. You're not RHCP (I like dirt)

So anyway, it's not about bitching or anything (which I did), it's about all the freaking yuppies and...you know the rest, Last night, some company (won't mention which Great E insurance company) came over for their monthly get together. Man....never seen a bunch so.....well maybe it's just be, I'm not into these kinda things. All I like is a nice drink, some food, hang around, sing some tunes, like Zakk Wylde (sit with friends, drink some beer, sing some tunes) but I can't really drink beer. I dunno why. Spirits are fine with me. a pint of beer compared to a pint of say Gin tonic or whatever, I think the beer will puke me out. Digress, digress, digress. It's so fun.

We should all walk around with a smile on our face. Have fun doing whatever we are doing, get into the groove. That's my direction. And hopefully Emot's too. btw....Emot has 2 gigs coming up at the end of July. Check out -->Platform website (thanks Bidster!), but do keep checking cos it's not really up yet. LOL!!!!

Blarg blarg blarg. I so totally suck at videoing man. My shots look like shit. All I have is stinking iMovies on old Flower Power iMac. Even transferring the video across has bored me out. I suck. I bought the Canon something700 and only after bringing it home and lying on bed with the manual did I realize it doesn't come with the IEEE#$*232982321 something cable I need to transfer the videos to the comp. Luckily I THEN remembered the iMac came with such a cable when I bought it and had to go hunt for it. There also wasn't enough space in my comp so I had to backup ALL my protools files. 16GB of them into CDs!!!! I still don't have enough space to maneuver around the videos I'll be editing. THEN...how am I gonna back THEM up? I so need a new comp. Hopefully a nice Titanium G4 or is it G5 now? or I'll even settle for the ibook. I now know why we need DVD writers for. But how am I gonna back up at least 10gig of stuff on one disk? Only way is a spare hard-disk dedicated for backing up shit only.

YAWN!!! When is this gonna end. I have MFG meeting morrow afternoon. BFD morrow evening. EMOT sunday afternoon. WTF Sunday rest of the day. And shit work starts again on Monday. sigh. Hope I can cover enough grounds by next week so I don't have to do anymore the week after. At least I have Manic Jango's documentary to look forward to on Monday evening. Emot gigs coming up. Look out for them. Go EMoT! Go EMoT! Go EMoT!

Tee hee hee! Last night, Me, Marc and Elvis had nothing else better to do so we went to Lower Pierce Reservoir ro check out the "scenery" *wink* but there wasn't much so we went INTO the reservoir for a walk. There was this guy in shorts and cap and he was walking up and down the "bridge". Definitely not jogging him (already past 1am). So anyway, we went to the end and Elvis and Marc, as usual, had to take a piss (like the last time) and after that we walked down the grass patch to the other end towards the golf course. A fence was up so we turned back. On the way out, we hear something like a fail whistle "Witssshh witshhhh". LOL! Elvis and Marc took a glance at each other and started bolting like a couple of scared rabbits. I looked at them and "wtf?!" and started after them, then it hit me, what the fuck are we running for? It sounded like some guy in the bush either a) trying to scare us off, or b) it's the "calling" call for gays. hahahahahahahaahhahahah!!! funny man. We were like freaked out even though it was nothing. They said it was monkeys cos we heard some again after walking half-way across the bridge but I don't think so. Too late for monekys to be awake. I think it's that weird guy walking around's rendevous with some guy to suck dick. lol. So anyway we when back. Joke man.

Damn you food poisoning and fever!!!! But ok lah. Didn't feel like doing anything today also, so it's my excuse to lay around and do nothing.

It's been around 2 years since I've graduated. I haven't had a proper full-time job since then. But look at me man! I've got an Epiphone Les Paul, loads of effects pedals, a Daelim Magma, a Canon Vid-cam, a Nikon digi-cam, new phones, a cool band (Emot), another band (the other one), gigs, nice relationships and cuddles and all, my own name cards. TWO if i might add...I'm having the time of my life!!! I wonder what will it be like if I had a proper full-time job. Hmmmmmmm.....*dreams*

Giraffes bend over a lot
Wednesday after emot jam and on the way to Sim-a-Lim, Sexy Hot Bod Darr, the Bidster and me came across this small tiny kitten who took up alot of our time and caused Sexy Hot Bod Darr's stomach to whine. Just like the kitten. She was whinning non stop for the whole...oh i dunno, an hour or so? Tried feeding her ("when she opens her mouth, shove it in!!!") but she didn't want anyway.In the end I had to give up my Simple shoes shoebox for her and put her nicely under a tree cos we didn't know wat to do with it. When I got home, the lid (with holes in it) and teh milk was there but the box disappeared tigether with the kitten. I'm sure some kind soul took her under his or her care. Bless her. If not. Damn you motherfucker!!!!!

And yes, she was THAT small.
