Vagina

I took a facebook quiz a week back, and it turns out, I'm a vagina. As much as I'll like to protest, I've been a real vagina when it came down to work since new year started. Whining, bitching, gossiping, giving cheap shots to my siblings(e.g. nipple pokes). I must admit, being a vagina is quite fun. But I must go back to being a penis soon, because being a vagina does have its consequences. 0__0

My new house is ulu, inconvenient and inaccessible. But I kinda like it for its peace and quiet, besides the piano maestro hitting all but the right chords at 9am on weekends, besides the mad dog that keeps screaming, besides..oh well, I love this place mostly for its heartland traits. Pity I'll only be here for 6 mths.

Dad's bday is near, duno wad to buy for him. Anan's results are coming out soon. If he does well, he gets an ipod. And I get to be the one who buys him the ipod. And pays for it. Hahaha. But I'll be really glad to buy him tt ipod. Dad loves him more than anybody, and if he does well, Dad would be really proud, really glad. I'll be glad for him too. I hope he gets what he wants, because I didnt and it sucked.

I'm having some troubles at work. Conflict with someone not even worth a look. Choose your words carefully, dont tempt me to abuse my authority. I'll do it and look legal at the same time. Dont push it. Ok, anger vented. Haha. I gotta zzz. Busy week. Real busy week.

The beginning

Dear Diary..
Firstly, lets start with sunday, 6 Jan. Maureen and friends(as usual..haha) and all of us headed to outram park after service to eat zhi char. Getting there was a drag..cos our group were too friendly..knew too many ppl..stopped too many times to chit chat..Peimin was hungry and complaining..and so was i. Hahahaha. But something good came out of that chit chat..cos we found out Cheyanne and Denton were gonna get married in May! Woooh!!! Happy occassssiooonnn yeaaaaa!!! God bless them both! Lunch was not bad..went back home..and met up with Paul, Roger(the dentist), Pheng Aun, Daisy and Hwee Lan for dinner at HV sushi tei. It was to celebrate Paulie's birthday in advance cos next day he flying off to Egypt..:( Had dessert at Hagen Daz..looked at some of Paulie's mission trip photos..and went back. (the kids were cute anyway..haha.)

Monday 7 Jan
Huge holiday hangover..but nonetheless..i've got to do my job..dont want to also no choice must do..hahaha. Big changes..boss left, satoshi left, yijie n andy gonna leave..I'm almost alone..with the new dude coming in..I've gotta start from fresh again. I really hate that. Held the farewell for boss..and he looked so happy to leave..i'm not surprised..nobodys surprised..this is the last place u wanna be in, believe me. New dude looks ok so far..hes from the poly batch!! Whoopeeee!!!

Tuesday 8 Jan
The new dude is doing really great..a very good listener..learns fast..fantastic. I taught him how to say no..because saying no in my work place is a very powerful thing, which people most of the time are unable to do. Though hes not as fun as satoshi, I'm just glad hes not some square, stick in the mud, go by the book dude..I did circuit training with the guys..coupled with my own personal body workout on sunday and monday..my body is in ruin. I've never felt so wasted before. And guess wad? Theres a biathlon next morning. 16 laps, 5km run. I'm so screwed.

Wednesday 9 Jan
I only finished 10 laps..5km run..not bad for a wreck like me..and I must say..I'm in hell..i turn left..theres pain..right..pain..up pain..down pain..look straight for too long..pain..I mite as well go n die..cos anyways..theres circuit training tomorrow morning. Hahahaha. I survive this week..ima miracle man..

Reflections..
My House
I move this saturday..so sad..I love this place alot..its been my everything..nice, quiet, peaceful, my place of refuge, solace, my mental institution, my home. Hillview Crescent 77..if God is willing..one day I'll buy you back..

I've been sleeping little..packing stuff..thinking about my plans..do I really wana take a year off after I leave? Mission trip? Or volunteer work? Can I afford it? Do I really want it?

Funnnie?!?
After telling Roger the dentist about how in service..after Pastor Lynette said lets hold hands..I held the hand of a sweet lookin babe..hes threatening to tell the Pastor bout how she should not do it again..cos of guys like me. Cindy starts getting aroused and we talk about the type of gal I like. I said I'll show her in church some day..hahaha. Ok la..its not right..but I rarely meet girls in church or outside who can give me this compelling feeling to just appreciate their facial features..and they're not babeliciously beautiful as well..Its just this aura I guess..or no..its just something that really appeals to me. sigh. men. Oh no. Ivans not in love. cos hes busy with work. And oh yes. Even Kok Liang's mom is worried for me..that I'll turn gay. after kok tells her how I'm anti relationship even at 21, when i'm supposed to be submerged in sex, booze, drugs, clubs, but instead its books, home, mom, dad. Hahahahaha..so funny..whole world starting to think i'm gay. Anywayas..congrats to kok..you're back with her again..pls stay together..and stay happy yea! Jas(i hope you never get to see this)..sorry..but from wad kok says..that girl was toying with ur kind soul. Its obvious you're not over her..but take it slowly yea..not easy i know..step by step..get it outta ur system. If I had a shotgun, I'll put 2 in her. Bloody slut. Tts all folks..gotta go zzz..niteys. And please, I'm not gay. I still look at girls and salivate. ;P

My first sin of 2008

Firstly, Lets start with 27 Dec, Joel's birthday party. I was the first of his friends to arrive. I thought it was a bbq, but turned out to be a buffet. People all dressed so nice and cool, yours truly wore shorts and slippers. hahaha. Met his fairfield friends, all years younger than I am. I gave him a book, "The Grand Weaver" by Ravi Zechariah. The party was good, heartwarming, and I had a great time. Though, I don't feel as close to him as before. A few old habits never die, and he still has difficulty saying the cold hard truth to me. Its just him, I guess. And I've embraced it!Hahaha. I hope the book can help you ask the questions you've been wanting to ask yourself and God. Happy 21st, and God bless you, my decade old friend.

31st Dec 2007
I went to church to attend my first watchnight service. I went with Mommie, and we gossiped alot about Dad on our way to church. Hahahaha. The moment I saw the leaflet, I complained to Ma that I shouldnt have came, because the people had so much lines to say!! :P Sermon was short and sweet. And then I saw this gal(not again Ivan..) who I've seen at the 10am service before. Obviously, shes a little cute, if not I wont remember(dentist must not see this, or he will gouge my eyes out). Heeheee. We had 5 mins of reflection about 2007. I thought about my life in whole, my future, my friends and family. I would say I've failed terribly once again.

And 2008 would be my chance to really pick things up. I cant afford to blow 2008, because I'm making plans, plans that I would elaborate later. 5 mins up, bells donging, happy new year. My first sin of 2008? Its a vulgar word, I duno why, but it just struck me. While everybody was jumping for joy and wishing each other Happy New Year, in my mind I thought, "Happy New Year. Oh fuck." I had to put on my Oscars winning smile and wish the people around me.

1 Jan 2008
Ate porridge at carpark level 3..it was good! Thanks to all who made it possible, and to those kind souls cleaning up. Me, dentist, Paul, Cindy cabbed to Al-Azhar's to have prata and to talk crap till bout 3am. Did funny stuff, dentist caught me digging my nose on video with his phone. Cabbed back home, sleep, wake up, go Holland V to lunch, with the same people plus Daisy. Played some real interesting games, though while playing settlers, I fizzled out, and played for the sake of playing. I'm clearly not cut out for such mind games, I'm a simple dude. :P We went to a void deck to play farkle and bridge, in which I came back to life. I won farkle! Muahahaha. Alot of luck and mind gambling. Hahaha. And Cindy had a kick ass time being my partner too, I hope.

Resolutions, Hopes, Dreams, etc.
My mom bought me a Max Lucado book, "Cure For The Common Life", for xmas. How sweet Mommie!! And its helping me with alot of personal questions, like is banking what I really wana do in life, what am I really good at, etc. Resolutions. Lesser vulgarities, calmer mind, stronger mentality. I lost all that in 2007. I need to get it back, to be the dude I was at the age of 16, and better that as well. I remember at 16, I had few struggles, because I was very absolute in my thoughts, lines I should never cross, things I should never do, all these to give me a conscience clear enough to sleep peacefully. And I succeeded greatly. In 2008, I must be better.

Hopes. To be able to reach out to Kok, Jasper, Colin, Joel, Ken. These 5, I reckon, are crying out for God, but they do not know it. Even as a friend, its been difficult for me to do that, I hope God helps me, and help them. I have been lazy in 2007, using my work as an excuse sometimes to not doing my bible study. I hope to change that, juggle work and cell group duties. I'm a fellowship champion!! I hope I'll be active, not like the dormant pig I was as harvest champ in 2007. My dream for now, is to take 1 year off after army, to do some meaningful stuff. I'm lookin at half year to full year mission trips, volunteer work, etc. Mom has given me her support, and Dad, well, I havent told him. Its something I wana do, and I hope he gives me his support. God help me too please. I need a lot of thinking and consideration. Also, I need to work on getting in touch with my old friends. I guess I'm not putting in enough effort huh, or am I just a little pleasure device in their lives? I will find out, and I'll continue to sniff out the useless shits I don't need in my life.

My workplace, boss's immediate transfer out, leaving me with a new boss, no 2nd in charge, new personnel, making me the most experienced(and i'm only 6mths experienced), and a very screwed up support crew. And oh, my immediate unofficial promotion to 2nd in charge. Means more shit. grrrr.

All this shit, worries, responsibility and accountability towards friends, family, cell group, I'm gonna swallow them all, and juggle them all. With God's blessing, grace, love and guidance, this 2008 can be really great for me. This is possible.

I thank you God, for watching over my wretched soul, perverse mind, sickly body, in 2007. I have offered worse than nothing. You have blessed me with a few lovely friends, a loving family, a loving cell group, to sustain me. I thank you for them, for their presence in my life. I thank you for everything, because everything is what I was given, and nothing was what I gave. There is no love like yours. Amen.
