one bullet away is so damn fucking good.

part of it may be biasness, seeing how damn in love i am with generation kill.

but reading everything from the pov of nate fick, his emotions, thoughts and opinions...

i teared at the end.


and now to make this more silly - :(

bloody fuck i keep wanting to burst out laughing in class whenever i recall this idiot in generation kill doing the hitler salute and goose-marching in the background as sergeant major asshole screams at pappy about his moustache.

gimme about half an hour to get the screencap up. not nice to pull up the video in class, and i think i'll really lol if i see it again. i'll see if someone uploaded that part of the video as well.

look at the guy behind center. the show's full of things like that. 

fucking sociologists and their stereotyping.

FUCK HELL I'M DOING ALL FUCKING SHIT BUT WHAT I'M FUCKING SUPPOSED TO DO.

and i'm gonna be fucking twenty i should start watching my shitfuck language.

but let me get out all the FUCKS in my language before my birthday ok?

AND HAHAHA i've been seating at like starbucks for like an hour (or something) and the card isn't exactly given to everyone. :D

YAY FREE DRINKS.

right. THIS PLACE is my favourite place to hang out currently. if you watched generation kill  (which you totally should) and don't understand what the fuck is going on, this place is awesome. if you understood what went on in the show, but missed half the background stuff (because there were A LOT of background shit which weren't supposed to be the focus but were so damn hilarious), this place tells you every piece of fucking shit. if you HAVE NOT watched generation kill (in which i don't know what the fuck you're doing now), the site has the best fucking synopsis i've ever seen in my life. for any damn show.

OK HALT FROM SPAZZING ABOUT GENERATION KILL.

although i'm halfway reading one bullet away, by nathaniel fick. OMG i totally admire that guy and i hope one day he'll run for president. he's running for senate one day i think.

and generation kill cannot be found anywhere. both the book and the dvd. shall try my luck in europe.

oops i did say that i was gonna stop the spazz.

ok anyway. IT PAYS TO BE POLITE. you know how starbucks people tend to ask how's your day and things like that? yeah well so i replied (like the well mannered person i am) and the guy started talking. (i guess most singaporeans are rude or something) so i was just talking to him until my coffee was done, and then when i turned away to get a straw he called me back and handed me two vouchers redeemable for a tall hot chocolate at the raffles city starbucks which is gonna be open 24 hours. then he was explaining to me about it (probably because i had a "why are you giving me this" face) and he handed me like another 7 more vouchers.

omg. he just provided me like 50 bucks worth of starbucks beverage or something. i have no idea how much hot chocolate cost.

the acting in generation kill is so fucking fantastic that i'm starting to get the lines between the actors and the real marines blurred.

i stumbled onto stark sands' myspace page by accident (i wasn't stalking him you idiot. for some reason his page is public and i was linked from one picture in his album) and he wrote "don't want to talk about it" for his occupation. so there i was thinking that "haha you don't want to talk about being a marine" before i realized what an IDIOT i was and that he didn't want to talk about it because he is an actor. :(

silly me.

i just finished generation kill, and i feel so... lost.

think i'm gonna rewatch it again. or i'll go buy the dvd and do it properly.

i just inhaled a large amount of coke.

which is doing fucking shit to my blood.

and i don't mean the drug, idiot.

gotta love the crazy westerners.

any show with at least two male leads you'll get gay shit out of them.

and the main cast of generation kill is ALL male.

crap. i know, you're not supposed to find how funny war is and crap, especially when prisoners are taken and people are shot.

but when a captured iraqi soldier goes, "baghdad? for free? thank you! thank you!" after the marines tell him that he's going to baghdad...

you can't help but laugh.

god i'm going to hell.

"Don't give that thing to me."

Brad Colbert tells an Iraqian woman who was trying to make him carry her baby.

"Where's my Trombley?"

Brad's calling for James Trombley.

Shit I'm hearting Sergeant Brad Colbert and Generation Kill like hell now.

Dude! These Iraqis love the fact that we're here. They fucking love freedom and they thought that those fireballs last night were fucking wicked dude. You Americans have killed a lot of sand. The sand was very evil.

This happened after a scene where the Air Corps bombed this huge portion of sand thinking that they were armoured tanks or something (because of lights from some village 30k away or something), and some marines were 'dubbing' the unheard conversation between the lieutenant, translator and an Iraqi.

FUCKING HILARIOUS. the sand was very evil.

-from generation kill. fucking fantastic show that is only 7 episodes long. :( 

this warning:

No scam or hustles. I won't have cash on me, and I'm not important enough to kidnap, but if you've got the right car and the right "vibe" I can find us someone important enough to kidnap together- IN-THE-CAR-YOU-JUST-SOLD-ME. Like, for example, the Jonas Brothers. I have been on T.V. and I have access.

was found on a site.

GERARD FUCKING WAY WROTE THAT SHIT. HAHAHAHAHA

my new bag has lots of interesting compartments (ok only two).

there's a cooler compartment and a wet pocket compartment and the bag is HUGE. yay i heart backpacks.

remember what it was like to enjoy our time,

before we all go back to school and learn,

before our eyes turn grey again,

and we forget what it was ever like to feel awake.

-ode to summer

going back to nanyang was pretty interesting.

of course, we had to eat snake and went to al-ameen before that, in which EVERYONE was late except for yours truly.

it only hit me then how guides was such a huge part of my secondary school life. the five of us had lots of "do you remember" (other than atee who still stuck with her "do you know?") to commiserate upon.

and we were extremely bored (and studying/playing/napping) and someone's itunes have really weird songs. haha.

EH ONG SU YI.


i don't declare myself as a LIGHTBULB for fun ok.

it's true. and it's not lightbulb in the chinese sense. it's lightbulb in the candle sense. but candles get blown out so i don't want to be a candle i want to be a LIGHTBULB.

both carmen and i are actually kind of hoping it's the exam period now.

which will mean that our europe trip will be in DAYS.

we're gonna like fly off straight after exams haha.

and ALL the discussions we've been having aren't helping.

though i'm slightly apprehensive about staying in hostels. they recommend that you bring flip-flops for the showers. *shudders*

yeah well don't ever take sociology.

you'll get a fucking stupid essay question like this:

Discuss how the ecological theory of race and ethnic relations fits into the functionalist paradigm. Critically evaluate ecological theory and the functionalist theory of race and ethnic relations from the perspective of conflict, feminist and symbolic interactionist theories.

and you'll wonder what the fuck is the professor talking about. there's only barely a page in the textbook talking about the ecological theory of race and ethnic relations, you'll think that functionalist paradigm = functionalist theory (because you DON'T see the term functionalist paradigm anywhere but because paradigm means a model or something why the fuck can't they use simple english that people can understand easily) and then you wonder is there a fucking difference between the ecological theory and the functionalist theory because the textbook DOESN'T MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT THE FUNCTIONALIST THEORY. neither does the powerpoint. but again you'll assume that they mean the same shit (hopefully) and you're just gonna compare it against conflict, feminist and symbolic interactionist theories (which you simply don't understand because nobody EVER gives a concrete definition.)

i hate sociology. should have gone for social work or SOMETHING.

isn't it a little scary when people out there think that it's ROMANTIC when people are willing to commit suicide for love?

wtf??


uhh. ignore me i'm reading a 'discussion' on twilight haha. and we have idiot fangirls who insist that it is TWU WUV when your partner dies and you commit suicide so that you die together.

hmph.



eh stop disgracing the name of fangirls ok.

i'm glad merlin doesn't really get the teenies. though instead, we get the crazies. :D

shit i'm dragging merlin into everything my sister thinks i'm really obsessed.

i've never read beyond the book twilight, and now hearing some stuff about what's actually going on in the next few books gave me a shock.

seriously, these are a few of the most popular books in the world now? clearly our reading tastes have gone down the drain.

there's edward cullen, a vampire who sparkles. (wtf i didn't sign up for sparkling vampires. that's too fucking gay. i like my vampires spike-style.)

bella swan, apparently an idiot who can't spell danger.

then in comes jacob black, and we have a love triangle.

there's also abuse going on (for god's sake edward is abusing bella. mentally and physically and psychologically and i don't know what else. look at the control tactics and every shit he pulls. and how he demands his every way.) then we have them GETTING MARRIED. at 18 (not edward. who the fuck cares how old he is he is some old shit.) and pregnant as well.

i don't know how to explain my distaste for this series but this just sounds like a shitty teenie made-in-america tv show. and people actually find this sort of shit romantic. pfft.

sure. dictatorship from your boyfriend is romantic. not being allowed to hang out with your friends is romantic. getting stared at while you're sleeping is romantic. (no it's not it's just extremely creepy) getting MARRIED and PREGNANT at 18 is romantic. (please in america you can't even drink at 18 you want to get married. you crazy arh.)

although maybe the turning into a vampire part is romantic. but i think i'll stake myself if it turns out that i sparkle.

tom felton is a surprisingly not bad singer-songwriter.

if "i kissed a girl" wasn't sang by a female, and instead a guy, you'll get... this.



ROFL. a boy with a boyfriend's who is angry about him kissing a girl.

and... if you don't understand why a merlin fanvid video was used... well too bad. the show is adorable in its gayness and all hail Merlin who is about to be Prince Consort.

i <3 fangirls.

i'm getting people addicted to the worlds of apple and merlin. :D

i think i know why i'm in love with the merlin world.


its fandom is too adorable. :D


I know. fangirls are one of the best inventions on earth.

director of merlin: "dad (referring to uther) did you see that? No! because i'm playing with my nintendo ds!"

camera pans to anthony head (guy who plays uther) and you see him laughing with his PINK ds in his hands.


omg i <3 merlin.

I think there is something not right with me today. (i know some of you out there think that there is something not right with me everyday. shut up.)

ongying can definitely attest to that.

first off, i go off declaring that i'm a lightbulb. because i light up people's lifes.

Je suis lightbulb! (whatever lightbulb is in french. and it's a merlin joke. :D)

then i go around claiming that i am rare.

that's me. i'm just in a different form at this moment.

then, i get confused with left and right.

ok if you don't get this picture you're worse than me.

but anyway, we were like on a massive food hunt today.

we had prata.

and ongying had an egg tart.

then we had dimsum.

and finally a chocolate cake.

we were hungry enough to keep forgetting about taking pictures. hence all the half eaten stuff.

btw, this post is aimed at you, wen. WE ARE TRYING TO MAKE YOU HUNGRY FOR SINGAPORE'S FOOD.

hydrochloric acid is drilling a hole through my stomach lining.

who still have a graphic calculator and wants games on it?

there's a super mario game flying out there.

je ne faire pas mon devoirs français.

i look at this:



and instead of thinking chemistry i go, "ooh POTIONS."

fuck i'm definitely no longer a science student and have been spending too much time in a fantasy world. :S

right. i went timbre last night with ming and shu and dawn. to watch atee's set.

turned out, we were much more interested in eating and drinking. haha. sorry atee! but the food was too damn good.

and the drinks surprisingly had more of a kick to it than usual. previously, drinking cocktails at timbre felt like i was drinking mocktails, but yesterday's mojito was PHWOAR. well. more alcohol than normal.

and omg we were ahpehs drinking beer. haha. and ming is a beer guzzling freak. well she drank quite a lot of beer. slightly more than one bottle.

beer is good.


and OMG LET ME HAVE MY FANGIRLISH MOMENT HERE.

i shared eye contact with JASON MRAZ and his KEYBOARDIST (oops i don't remember the keyboardist's name haha). the reason for being able to share eye contact was all down to luck. so you guys know that i bought the most expensive ticket, but it was also side view. and for some strange reason, the crowd that i was sitting with were ALL sitting down. i looked like the only idiot standing up. haha. so whenever the two of them looked over, they'll notice the idiot. which is me. and which is how i managed to share eye contact. and i was also sitting in the first row. :D

/fangirl moment.

ok. the concert was REALLY GOOD. but the atmosphere couldn't beat the one at fort canning. people here... let's just say most of them knew only songs from the new album, and the more popular old songs. you could totally tell, from the reaction of the crowd. from my view, i could also see people in the front row (directly facing jason mraz) who were mouthing only to the singles. what a waste of money. you could have GIVEN THE DAMN SEAT TO ME. at least i'll have been much more appreciative.

and jason mraz has the cutest dance moves ever. seriously, if any other guy dances like him we would laugh, but him dancing and shaking his ass is HOT. haha. don't ask me. i had a very nice view of him shaking all about the stage.

and the wind instrument players (sax, trumpet and horn(?)) were ADORABLE. they were like the back up dancers. tapping and dancing along to the music. there was this part where they, the bassist and jason mraz were all dancing together on stage. and synchronized. one of the best moments ever.

i'm kinda disappointed older songs weren't played though. things like curbside prophet, absolutely zero and clockwatching. i guess i'll have to stick to live cds and youtube for that. :(

but i'm really really glad i threw down the money to go watch him. it was totally worth it. and i realize i listen to the live cd too much when i could FOLLOW his tune while the entire crowd was singing to the cd version. *proud fangirl moment*

OMG I'M SUCH A FANGIRL.

The setlist:
The Dynamo Of Volition
Geek In The Pink
If It Kills Me
You And I Both
Sleeping To Dream
Who Needs Shelter
Live High
Lucky (with joi(?) chua)
Only Human
A Beautiful Mess (i <3 this song. it was the song that made me buy the ticket.)
Make It Mine
I'm Yours (so goddamned overplayed but jason mraz still made it amazing.)
Mr. Curiosity
The Remedy
No Stopping Us
Butterfly

WHOA 16 songs. not bad. and i've heard some of the songs live TWICE now. *floats off to lala land* and please ignore the fact that i can tell the titles of the songs just by listening to them. :S

and let's see if franz ferdinand will come down this year. HAH.

By the way, does anyone thinks that Nokia is an idiot?

I mean like, yay! they're opening up a digital music store that you only have to pay a fee for to download all the songs you want, and they've got FOUR MILLION TRACKS.

but they go and do stupid things like add DRM to the tracks, bundle this service AND and a Nokia phone so that one must come with the other, and the service only lasts a year so if you want to 'renew' you got to buy a new phone.

if apple did this it means we would have to buy a new ipod every year or something. but ignore that since ITUNES IS NOT AVAILABLE IN SINGAPORE WTF.

and even apple is starting to make the music DRM-free. they realize the potential out there for DRM-free music. that more people will actually purchase the stuff there since they're not limited to just playing the stuff on their computers or ipods/iphones.

seriously. Nokia could have become one of the more serious competitors of Apple, and they have to do stupid shit like that. Omg did they not do a market survey or what. (I have no idea why I'm talking about market surveys when I'm not a business student.)

Even if people actually LIKED the phone and LOVED the service, not every one wants to buy a new phone just to renew the damn music service. and for people who hates nokia phones because they spoil so easily, lag and the ten thousand problems that come with them, too bad for them.

Pfft. An actual digital music store in singapore for reasonable prices and it FAILS.

It's kinda strange how this month flew past.

Kind of a good thing though, looking at my expenses.

I seem to have no idea of the concept you guys know as saving.

But yeah, I do have clothes coming in. :S Bloody US dollar.

Mr. Mraz tonight! :D

she's GOOD. when i heard this song on radio, i was debating if the singer was a guy or a girl. i decided on guy, since singapore radio doesn't exactly like female singers with such husky voices. i turned out to be so wrong though.

i think i'm gonna go buy her album.

right. so i was removing my shoes from the rack, and i looked up to see this huge ass grasshopper(?) staring at me.


and it jumped.


fuck hell i dodged. and i couldn't find it after that. gave me the shock of the day.

how cute is that? :D

for some reason, the lyrics of gotta be somebody by nickelback seems to tell what i'm feeling now.

DIE EMO FEELING DIE.

omg. STAIRS. wtf. the person who designed FASS obviously isn't very smart.

and OMFG JASON MRAZ IN TWO FUCKING DAYS.

is it better to have loved and lost, or to not have loved at all?

excuse me. i'm kinda in a strange mood right now and i feel sick.

it's too damn late/early.

he was dead.

i think i like that sentence.

the new franz ferdinand album is extremely addictive.

you can't help but bob your head along with the music. or tap your feet. whatever.

no, i'll never resort

to kissing your photo, honest

i just had to see

how the chemicals taste their honey

btw did you guys know?

there's a thaipan outlet in changi village now.
