Ethan Mao

Did nothing much today. woke up only at about noon and went to bedok reservoir - not to run. The National Dragonboat competition will be held there on 1 and 2nd july. It's was the first day today. Went there to take photos and it was rather saddening. not much good pictures to take.. and with the camera i was having, making it worse. no tele lens.

Came home after that. was supposed to go to all saints church for a memorial service for both my grandmothers. but was too tired, so didn't. Went online and chatted, and tried to sleep at 5pm. woke up at almost 8pm. i don't know if i slept at all a not. i was just tossing and turning around in bed. After waking up, i decided to watch the DVD that dom passed to me last week. Ethan Mao. It's a nice movie and i cried.. i really cried - i didn't tear - i cried coz it was so touching. it's so nice.. so sweet...

that brings me to a another topic - coming out. i shall write about that another time perhaps. my friend/collegue blogged about her coming out. you may read about it here at http://cryce.blogspot.com/ in the 30 June, Friday post.

More about Ethan Mao:

A psychological thriller, a coming-of-age drama, a gay love story, and a black comedy, Ethan Mao tells the story of an 18-year-old boy reaching the point of no return.

Booted out of his house for being gay, Ethan Mao survives on the street as a hustler. There he meets 19-year-old Remigio, a drug dealer and fellow hustler who takes him in. After being tipped off by his younger brother that his family is going on a day trip on Thanksgiving Day, Ethan asks Remigio for a ride to his family house to collect his belongings.

On that fateful day, Ethan’s family returns early to discover he and Remigo are looting the house. His father is shocked and enraged and forces Ethan into a physical confrontation. Holding his father at gunpoint, Ethan demands that his manipulative stepmother return his deceased mother’s diamond necklace only to find out she is keeping it in a safety deposit box at the bank.

IWith Remigio by his side, Ethan decides to hold his family hostage until the bank opens the next morning. In the waning desperate hours, Ethan, his family and Remigio are forced to confront their unresolved conflicts and feelings. As the tensions between Ethan and his family escalate, their inner demons and secrets unravel in this suspenseful and touching drama.

And i just received a latest news, well, not news actually, my friend would be delayed in returning. not today but tomorrow. my guess is that he can't get a flight back. so i dun think i'll be going to church after all... FCBC? maybe...

Goodnight people... Think i'm getting insomnia from dom.. Blessed people...

Finally over

The AIDS Awareness MSM Mandarin Seminar is finally over and i can now rest in peace. haha...

I'm tired. Have been working since 9am today and left the office only at about 11.15pm.

Enough with playing with the ad server. It seems that i can't get the ads up.. haha...

Nitez ppl...

Tired

I dunno why i'm so tired again. I've been feeling tired since 8 plus.

After work, i went out with joe to eat the famous beef noodles at purvis street. Joe was around that area so he called me and asked if i wanted to have dinner with him and i agreed.

After eating, we went to raffles city shopping center. Joe was looking around for a pair of shoe. Timberland, but didn't find anything to his and my liking. We left for home shortly after that.

And here i am now back at home in front of my computer. I just learnt that my friend cut his wrist (well, not wrist but arm) over a small incident. Hope his wounds heals soon. People, if you have any problems or any anger, dun do anything to harm yourself. You can always call me.. help is at hand.

Going to turn in soon.. Take care people. God Bless You.

First ever Mandarin AIDS Seminar held in Singapore

A Mandarin seminar on AIDS has never been conducted in Singapore. Not even once. Well, until on tuesday night at least.

SGBOY and Oogachaga conducted a Mandarin AIDS seminar on tuesday night at Xpose Bar and Cafe located along South Bridge Road on how to protect yourself and at the same time, protect your partner.

You would think that AIDS being such a dreadful disease, that everyone would know what to do to protect themselves and their loved ones. But out of the number of people getting infected last year (255), bringing the total up to 2641 infections in Singapore, about 25% of the infections was within our community. This number is startling to say the least. In a gay community, say 10% of the total population in Singapore, we are not putting our community in a better light.

We give the homophobes ammunition to shoot ourselves down. What with the bans of gay parties, and the tight leash we're on; we can scream foul for all we want and still not be taken seriously. The gay community must assume responsibility and show the rest of society how we are ready to take our places along them and stand against the fight against AIDS. The homophobes assume that an infected person is a product of homosexuality. Now, in the 21st century, it is time for us to change that notion. And to do so, we will have to change our mindset as well. Equipping ourselves with information at our fingertips, we can therefore help ourselves, and in doing so, give the rest of the world no chance to point their fingers at the community.

Sure, everyone knows that sexual intercourse with an infected person heightens your chances of contracting the disease. But the level of risks involved are kind of blurred down the lines. We know that infected blood and so forth are dangerous to a non-infected person. But what about saliva, or tears, or even sweat.

The speaker, Kian Seng of Oogachaga broke it all down and gave the participants last night an eye opener to what the disease does to you. Kudos to him, for taking a scary and taboo subject and turning it into a seminar that was filled with laughter and enjoyment.

But the disease itself isn't quite so funny as found out by the participants last night. We are pleased to report that everyone walked out of Xpose with a clear idea on what AIDS could do to somebody as well as the precautions to take.

Those who have not signed up for the seminar can do so for the second installment.

Venue: Xpose Bar and Cafe located at South Bridge Road (opposite Kenko Wellness Spa)
Time: 7.30pm
Date: 29th June 2006
Details can be found at http://www.sgboy.com.mseminar.php

My Prayer

Nothing much happened today.

I keep forgetting that it's the 21st today - so much so that i missed an appointment with MCYS and i had to email them to reschedule the interview for me. i'm feeling so bad about it.

I'm feeling lonely - again. Well, i dunno why. maybe it's just that i'm single and have nothing to occupy me. Maybe i should just stay in office and work work work and work so that i wun feel so lonely and at least i can get things done - not that i can't get things done at home, but at least, i can do more work and get myself busy. but wait. i'll get scolded for making the electricty bills go sky high. haha... What should i do??? find myself a partner? but how when no one wants me...

I've found a new target, or rather, someone whom i kinda like. I've known him for a couple of years now but we didn't keep in touch till last year during his birthday party when i went over to his house. And we didn't contact each other or meet up until yesterday during the seminar again. It had been 11 months since we last met. Suppose to meet him tomorrow but he's now in muar and going to hong kong for a short trip. And for now, he's older than me. It seems that i'm always falling for someone younger than me, but now it's older. Will it work or will he just be another passer by?

It's entirely up to God to decide. One good thing - He's a christian too, a young one i must say...

"Dear God, I pray that You will grant him journey mercy and that he will walk the way You want him to, do the things You want him to as You have planned in Your will. For You Lord the Almighty God will protect and provide for him. Lord I know that You love him always. Bless him always and keep him safe in your arms. Amen."

Goodnight people.

AIDS Awareness MSM Mandarin Seminar (2)

Didn't do much today again.

Twas the seminar tonight. The turnout was good. The place was small so it didn't look quite bad.

It was rather interactive and the audience enjoyed themself. The content was also good and for people like me, to refresh our knowledge on HIV/AIDS.

It was in chinese but i could still understand.

There's still another session on the 29th for those who missed tonight's session.

Hope to see you there.

Cheers, God Bless and Goodnight.

Silent Hill

Went to work today as usual. Had to be the boss again as he's on MC.. haha...

Made a wasted trip to AfA due to a miscommunication.

Went to watch Silent Hill with Issac at nite. Was quiet okie... I jumped usual.. haha.. I have a weakness for these genres...

Thought of an idea to make MiRaNtZ Media work.

Got to go.

Nitez.

Loves You God, Loves God You, You Loves God, You God Loves, God You Loves, God Loves You. - It's all the same with the same meaning - as long as the message is brought across.

Church

Went to church today. Thereafter, went to make a new specs at my family optician at katong shopping center. Costed me $220. White frames.

I realised tat i can't go to any church next week. It's my church's AGM. Annual General Meeting and i'll have to be there. compulsary.

Well, tired again. i dunno why. i'm such a pig.

Nitez ppl...

Sleep

Adults need at least 7 hours of sleep daily. That's why i always ensure that i have at least 7 hours of sleep everyday. I woke up only at 2.45pm today. Did nothing much. Went to office to collect the flyers and the registration forms for the mandarin seminar and went to Pelangi Pride Center to pass them the stuffs. back to office again.

I stayed in the office till about 8.30pm and i left. Did nothing much in the office also other than checking emails, repling to emails and my other routine work.

And now i'm home and i'm still feeling tired. Guess my bones are just too lazy today.

Will be going to church tomorrow as i promised lennel that i'll be going.. haha...

Oh ya.. and i forgot to say, i don't know why, but i felt so honored, or touched when my friend told me a few days back that he dreamt of me in his sleep. Guess what did he dream about... I was jerking off under the blanket and he came over to suck me off.. whahhahaa....

Ciaoz and Nitez...

My Virgin Visit (continued)

Hi All,

Here's my short little writeup about my virgin visit to Blue Heaven. Here goes...

I had dinner with one of my friends at Banquet @ Raffles Hospital. We both had chicken rice. The rice was fragrant but hard and only a few pieces of chicken meat. (Fast Forward - I'm not going to write a food review.)

I arrived at Blue Heaven Sauna located somewhere in the middle of Bugis and Lavander MRT Station at about 9pm with 2 of my friends. 1 of them been there before before they renovated sometime in March 06 and the other, was like me, a virgin to a sauna. We entered the sauna from the side door and there was a metal gate just beside the counter. There wasn't any handle on the gate so I kinda made a fool out of myself trying how to open the gate. Haha.. And then, the guy at the counter was like looking at me strangely, as if I was an undercover police or something like that wanting to do a raid - coz it was 3 of us.

After paying $6 each - as we were below the age of 25 (usual price $12), we were each given a red towel, and on top of it, was a Carex condom and 2 small padlocks with 2 small keys tied together with a string. We were ushered to the locker room at the first level. It was pretty warm. We stripped leaving everything exposed except for our privates and thighs wrapped with the red towel. I wondered why the towel was red instead of blue when the place is known as BLUE Heaven.

We made our way to level 3, the top-most level and we showered. There were 5 cubicles in total. Pink colored nice smelling soap was provided in a dispenser. After drying ourselves with the same towel, which initially thought that we would be given new towels, we made our way back down to level 1 for the jacuzzi as the steam room was very crowded - according to my friend. It was only in the later part that I realised it wasn't crowded. It was the dark room where he peeped into and couldn't see anything and assumed that it was full.

Down at level 1 again, walking past the lounge area and lockers, we arrived at the pool and we had to strip before going into the pool. I wished I had brought my trunks, but well, no one was wearing trunks and if I were to wear, I'll be so alien. Carefully I stepped into the warm water and trying to use my one foot to see how deep it was. I didn't know how deep it was. The depth of a swimming pool? Well, I was relieved that I was tall enough. I never used to like the adult swimming pools last time as I had to always tip-toe, but now, I just had to stand and the water would only come up to maximum the nipple line aka the breast area. We sat and chatted. People came into the pool to join us and I observed how others came down into the pool. They were rather graceful in coming down - using one and to hold onto the floor and the other to cover their crotch. Oh my! I didn't do that as I used both my hands to hold onto the floor. Poor me, I've exposed myself to those in the pool. We continued chatting and one of my friend was "attacked" by a guy sitting opposite him. The latter was using his legs to tickle my friend's legs and my friend felt rather uncomfortable. I asked him to move and sit closer to me for safety reasons. After spending almost 30 minutes or even more, we decided to go back to check out level 2.

The entire level 2 was private rooms. I didn't count how many there were, but I think there would be about 10 or so. I went inside one and there was a light switch. I switched it on and a small red light came on - I could barely see the place. I turned the dimmer on all the way to max and at least, I could see better. There was a blue or black "bed" at the side of the small room and it was clean, free from body fluids. Screwed onto the wall just beside the bed was a toilet roll holder with toilet rolls in it. There were quite full. And beside the toilet roll holder was a dispenser containing water based lubercant in it. Most dispensers have at least be 1/2 filled with lubes. And beside the bed on the floor was a rubbish bin, containing some trash - used condoms and tissue papers mostly. We left level 2 after I went in and out of a couple of private rooms with my friend. One them actually said that he was worried about my safety when I just went in there like that to check as who knows, at any point of time, any despo could just enter and lock the door and I would be a goner.

Went to the steam room at level 3. It was real warm (which is why they call it a steam room) and my glasses misted immediately. I was blinded. I left soon after, maybe just 30 seconds after I stepped in as it was very dark to see practically anything. I went out and headed to the dark room at the end of the corridor. After going in, it was real dark and I left soon after also. How am I, in the right mind, to look for things as well as to see how clean it is in there?

We took a shower again and went downstairs to level 1 to get changed. There was someone changing at his locker space, which was just beside my friend's and my locker, so I decided to surf the web for a while before going back to change. I checked my email and shortly after I logged off, just 2 seconds, and the power tripped. There was a blackout. Lucky for us, the place where we were had emergency lights and it wasn't too dark. But nevertheless, it was dark at the locker area so we couldn't proceed there to change. We sqeezed ourselves into a couch, meant obviously for 2 persons.We sat there for 15 minutes or so before deciding to go back into the locker room to change in the darkness. The workers there were kind enough to assist in carring torches to shine for us. But fortunately, there was 1 torch placed on the top of the locker so it practically dimmed the room a little. After opening my locker, I used both my handphones as a source of light. And we changed.

Before we left, we were "treated" each to a can of green tea and a complimentary pass for the next visit, as what all the other patrons received.

That was a night for us. An experience which I think I would never forget as my virgin visit to the sauna.

Cheers!

The Virgin

It's my virgin visit to Blue Heaven today. Enterance from the side door. Level one was the counter, lockers, free net access, lounge and jacuzzi. Level 2 was the private rooms and level 3 was the shower area, dark room and steam room.

Went there with Raymond and Jerome. Had dinner with jerome first and then went to pick raymond up from bugis junction. Poor jerome and raymond, kena molested. I was lucky, nothing happened to me.

Was checking my emails and just after logging off, the electricity went off. A power failure. it was all dark except for the emergency light. my my... and while in the jacuzzi i was talking about fire and all that...

Well, we used handphones as the source of light and changed. and we left. And we were compensated each with a can of green tea. haha..

Okie.. am just too tired to blog.

Nitez.

Server problems

Went to watch the last installment of Xmen today. Didn't catch the first and second installment though. watching it coz i have free passes. haha...

The server's bad. Ever since it was up, it's been very unstable. And it's been giving problems. It's real bad. And i dun like webvisions le. I feel so cheated by them.

I manage one .sg domain. It was hosted with Vooju - $45 per year. Then webvisions had it at $44 a year. So i decided to transfer my domain name to webvisions to save that $1. But after tranfering, it turned out that there's no forwarder and i would have to pay $18 per year for a dns hosting. what the hell...

Anyway, i wanna go sleep le.. dun wanna vomit blood over this stoopid issue. And hope that i wun get woken up during my sleep.

I'll be going to Blue Heaven tomorrow night after having dinner with Jerome. Will tell you guys more ba...

Nitez ppl...

Bloggin @ Office

I'm blogging in the office... but, it's now 1am... haha... who in the right mind will be in the office BLOGGING now ritez??? only me.. haha...

Well, my 2 new servers are finally up and running. Hopefully nothing will go wrong and Trevvy will be able to be launched as planned.

Nothing evenful happened today. Went to watch movie with raymond. Brought him to sunshine plaza to eat the wanton noodles. Went with him to OG Orchard. Hhe spent $92 plus buying a t-shirt with a hood a 3/4 pants. The shirt's nice.

Shared pop-corn together. But he ate only like 1/4 of it, or even less. haha...

He wanted to accompany back here to the office, but i declined knowing that there'll be no train home if he does and tat my office is kinda a "classified" place. haha... I was so stoopid. Could have taken a bus from the busstop outside orchard emerald back to office, but i walked all the way to ps and then i realised that i could have taken a bus. haha.. den i took a bus back to office. It's nice in the office at night. Cool and quiet. Dark too.. hehe...

OKie.. i've gtg.. I've updated the side-menu. Added in more links and such.

Nitez ppl while i start to make my way back home.

Cheers and God Bless!

Boring day

Nothing much happened today.

Raymond doesn't seem very responsive, so is that a good or a bad sign? Or am i just being too sensitive?

Issac smsed me asking if i could accompany him. Think he had his night's out. How i wish i could but as i had something on, i couldn't. sigh, how i wish i could just spend some time with him to accompany him...

I'm sorry Issac... Will spend quality time with you okie?? *hugs* (if you need it, or if u wanna accept it) haa...

Time to sleep soon.. Will be meeting raymond tomorrow night for dinner. Not sure if he'll be responsive though. He's a passive, so i'll need to take the initiative, but do i even know if he's receptive?? sigh....

Nitez.

Advertising Space

Notice that now i have 2 advertising space? One is for a skyscraper ad, 160 x 600, the one of the left, and the other a banner ad, 468 x 60, the one on top. I've also another option - a popup ad. But i doubt i'll want to use that to advertise, as that'll be irritating. Well, unless you wanna pay for it. haha.. So yup, it'll be opening up my blog for people who wants to advertise with me on MiRaNtZ Media. Free of charge. Yes, i'm not charging. So if ya wanna advert with me, please drop me a mail at mirantz@gmail.com. I'll only charge a small fee if you wanna have tat irritating pop-up ad. I have my viewship stats and also i'll be able to work out some packages for you guys - all f.o.c, BUT, you'll have to do the artwork yourself.

I've not been doing anything much 2day.. Went out with Raymond (Not his real name, to protect his identity) to marina square and then to cineleisure to book tickets for xmen 3, for my friends and me. We walked and walked. not a very long distance though, under an umbrella carried by me, not a small one but my big commando umbrella.. haha... Will he be the next one in my life or just a passer by? i do not know...

Heard of this song on BBC World Service - UK Top 20. Quite a nice song. So ya.. will be changing it. BTW, my site is best viewed using Internet Explorer, else you'll miss out on the stuffs i have on this site, the comet cursors and the music.

Okie.. ciaoz...

Zzz day

Woke up only at about 2.55pm. Did nothing the whole day.

Checked emails, vetted boyfiles, approved classifieds and personals. I brought by laptop home so that i could clear my emails.

Logged on to the ad server to active all the other advertisers' skyscrapers. Bods.Bodynits, Cappello Loft, SGBOY Xcess, LuxAsia, BRAVE, JM2u, Happy (which the skyscraper size was wrong so it could appear) and also Sportmenasia (which i could't find the ad, so have to wait till monday). British Airways ad had their 2 weeks of 100% share of voice.

Didn't do anything much. Dad bought fish and chips from the coffeeshop downstairs for me for lunch. It was already 4.15pm. It was bad. real bad. The fish was so hard. They didn't defrost it. took it straight out from the freezer and deep fried it. that's why.

I'm so bored at home with nothing to do and no one to go out with and no where to go. Well, i have things to do la - tidy up my room. i'm just lazy, i guess. haha.. I AM lazy - i'm admitting it.

World Cup already started. Are you into it? I'm definately not. I'm not into balls, well, human balls, maybe.

My collegue aka my manager read my blog. She was really feeling bad tat morning. and after she read my blog, she kept laughing. Is my blog really that funny? or isit really tat entertaining? Well, if it is, den it's good. so when you're sad or ill, just come to my blog to read. if you're not, dun bother coming okie? Coz if you're not ill or sad and you come, you'll be reading every post, and when you're sick and you come, you'll say tat there's nothing much in my blog and it doesn't work le.. so ya... get what i mean? you dun read it normally, read it only wen you're sick or depressed and i'll cheer you up with all my non-sense.

Okie.. not sure if i'll be going to church tomorrow or anot. i'm just feeling lazy. SEE.. LAZY AGAIN.... well, maybe it's just my bones. haha... oh well, blame this, blame tat and blame everything except self ritez?

Okie la.. i think i should stop yakking now. else i think readership would drop. actually, who cares? it's already low, and when no one read,s it doesn't make a difference ritez?? i'm just like typing my thoughts and all the non-sense in me away into cyberspace, letting all those kaypo ones, like you, the one reading this right now read. well, sorry, i should put it nicely, all those people who reads this, those who cares for me.

See la. i say that i should stop yakking and i still typed one big paragraph. Well, who knows, people might already have closed the window le coz of a personal attack in the previous paragraph. but wait. if you're still reading, Thank You for reading. Okie i'll end now.

Till then,

The Bored and Lazy MiRaNtZ.

AIDS Awareness MSM Mandarin Seminar

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Singapore's leading gay portal spearheads bilingual 'self-help' campaign against HIV/AIDS

Singapore - 6 June 2006 - In response to the latest HIV incidence data released by Singapore's health ministry which reported that transmission among men who have sex with men (MSM) accounted for 25% of the new infections in 2005, Singapore's most visited gay portal SGBOY.COM spearheads a community-initiated bilingual campaign with the tagline 'Protect Him, Protect Yourself' and a Mandarin seminar on 20 and 29 June to get MSM to take personal responsibility for their own sexual health.

The collateral depicts a dagger wrapped in a condom dangled over an open palm, reflecting the danger of playing with a 'dangerous weapon'. The campaign appeals to the collective identity of MSM, and to persuade them to think of how HIV/AIDS affects them and other MSM they come in contact with. A non-prescriptive 'self-help' approach taken by fellow members of the MSM community is expected to be more receptive andless likely to be rejected as an intervention into their personal lives.

SGBOY.COM has enlisted the participation of several voluntary groups and gay-friendly merchants in the distribution of posters and flyers. To ensure that Mandarin speakers in the MSM community are not missed out, all printed collaterals will be bilingual and for the first time an MSM Mandarin seminar will be held on 20 and 29 June 2006 in collaboration with counselling support group Oogachaga.

"HIV transmission through sexual contact is not an individual activity. Therefore we believe that for any HIV/AIDS campaign to be effective, it requires a responsible collective action within the community to protect each other," said SGBOY Director Salmon Lee. "The tagline reflects the positive message that when you lookout for the safety of your partner, you are protecting yourself in the process."

SGBOY.COM, the most visited gay portal in Singapore, is no stranger to community efforts at combating HIV/AIDS. In November 2004, it became one of the first community portals in the world to provide `live tips' on HIV/AIDS with online volunteers at its popular forums and chat room.

AIDS Awareness Mandarin Seminar will be held on 20 and 29 June 2006 at Xpose Cafe and Bar located at South Bridge Road. To sign up, please visit www.sgboy.com/mseminar.php.

Motivation Level: NONE

I'm feeling so lifeless.

Not motivated to do anything at all. I just feel like sleeping. just sleep and sleep and sleep.

I think i should just abandon my plans of finding a partner. I'm just another one of those who scores F9 in this subject. I'm good in it's theory, but bad in it for practical. I can help people with it but i am helpless myself. I should stop making myself look so cheap and low class. But then, now that my standard's already so low and that i'm not making any progress, if i set a standard, how will i ever get results? Am i at my wits end? i dun think so ba. Just learn to live one day at a time.

I should start going to church now. I'll have to follow lennel to FCBC this sunday as i'm defaulting on God. One good thing - service is at 1.30pm.

I'll be going for an interview over at MCYS on the 21st for the volunteer probation officer thingy. Hopefully, with that, i would be rotting the whole time and at least i'll be able to do something else to help the straight community.

The AIDS Awareness MSM Mandarin Seminar is on the 20th and 29th. And we have less than 20 particpants. How good is that. I'll be posting the press release in my next post.

Please come and support it. It's FREE anyway. And have a chance to improve your mandarin, for people like me... haha....

Cheers!

Happy Birthday Issac; Taboo

Nothing much today. Went to mox last night to watch a fashion show by Nudie Jeans and Style Nord. The invite stated 9pm, but when we arrvied at 8.55pm, they were still having their rehearsals and we were told to return at 10pm. We returned at 9.45pm and the show had already started. The auction was next for the jeans worn by the models, unwashed. The highest bidder for the night - $200 (if i didn't get it wrong).

Went to WhyNot for a while and i met up with joseph and we chatted a little. He stayed behind while i made my way home by NightRider. It's been a long time since i last took NR.

Slept all the way till about 1pm. Woke up, surf the net and went over to meet my parents. I brought them to Marina Square and finally to the pc show at Suntec. Bought myself a laptop cooler which costed me $35.90, well, paid by my parents of course and also epson compatable ink. one for $9. Buy 2 and get 1 free. So i paid a total of $18 for 3. And if i had bought the original, it would cost about 30+ just for 1. Nothing to do thereafter so i left my parents had headed back to the office.

Shortly after i powered on my laptop and tried out the cooler, Issac messaged me. or did he call me? i forgot. He was bored (if i didn't get it wrong) and we decided to meet up. Met him at about 7.40 at Tiong Bahru Mac, we chatted and surfed the net on my lappy. He took photos of me, which i'll grab from him.. ahha... It's his birthday today (or would i say yesterday coz it's already almost morning now...) Accompanied him on the bus till the bus stop near his house. Was rather near Ikea so i thought i could go in to get sometime. I ended up buying 2 potted plants, 2 cd racks and 1 water jug. The plants in the office now has no flowers and i dun really like it, that's why. haha... So now at least there are plants with flowers. Hopefully it will stay alive. haha...

Went back to office and put the plants nicely and replied all the emails and it was time to leave for Taboo. Went there and met James, Bala and Kris. We went in and chilled out.

Dating

I'm dating... well, hopefully, provided the other party wants it though... My first date since my last relationship years back.

It's sunday and i'm rotting at home. My bed from ikea collapsed. Screws came out when i woke up. haha... managed to fix it, but am not sure how long it'll last. But nevertheless, i think i should start bed-hunting soon. This time round, think i'll look for a real BED and not a foldable one. haha... BUt my room has no space... =(

Well, think i'm going to continue to rot at home doing nothing. I kinda miss him. He takes some time to normally reply my smses.. not sure if he finds me irritating or so.. sigh...

Was the MSM (Men who has Sex with Men) stakeholders meeting at AfA (Action for AIDS) yesterday and Hamid was like asking why i wasn't there and even though i wasn't representing SGBOY, i could have attended as an individual and as an observer. well, never mind, next year then... :)

Back to work again tomorrow. I love my job. Freebies, nice boss, environment and a 5 day work week. What else more could i ask for???

I miss him. I hope that things will turn out well...

Wish me luck.

Cheers and God Bless.

Interviews and more to come perhaps

The weeks had been fine. Rather eventful. Went to watch Kumar performing at Zouk during Camp Comedy by Fly Entertainment on Friday night with my boss.

Saturday - Went to watch mister singapore and at the same time took photos. lots of them. and fighting with fellow photographers for the best space.

Sunday - AIDS Candlelight Memorial. Was over at SMU's Campus Green. Thankfully it wasn't raining else i'll be a gonner as i was wearing slippers and it was raining when i left home in the afternoon.

I went to watch Da Vince Code on sunday too. Was a rather draggy show, which lasted 2.5 hours. I heard that it's not as good as the book, though i didn't read it.

pL's inviting me to watch it with him this coming weekend and i oblidged, so i'm to going to watch it again. Well, it's worth the money though. Was treated to it the other time.. haha...

Interviewed a propective Trevvy candidate. He might get through. Well, am still waiting for anotehr to get back to me with his writing samples. Am expecting it to come either tomorrow or wednesday. Thereafter, a little "chat". yes - not an interview. haha...

I'll be attending my re-certification for my BCLS aka Basic Cardiac Life Support Re-Certification course on the 1st of june. My BCLS cert actually expired on 7 may and i thought it was june. haha... Hopefully i'll be able to pass it. I haven't been practising it for quite a while - but, how many will even get to apply it??? haha...

I've signed up as a volunteer with the MCYS aka Ministry of Community Development Youth and Sports as a voluntary youth probation officer. hoping to get in so i can kaypo with the lives of the youth. haha...

And also, i've received an email from SJAB aka St. John's Ambulance Brigade after sending in my application like 6 months ago - to volunteer with them. Finally they sent me the application form and asked me to pass thema copy for my nursing licences as well.. haha... I'm glad i would be appreciated and would be able to volunteer in something which i can make use of my experiences, well, it's not really vast though.. ahha... but i would say be able to work with vairous cases in different inistutions, both public and private has given me lots of experience and exposure.

Okie... time to end yakking here... should sleep soon. i need my 7 hours of sleep and rest.

Nitez people and you're Blessed - me too!

I'm taking the phone and my mum's using the line. And i gave to her my old phone. Nokia 1108. It isn't very old, considering that it's less than a year old.

Now i've Bluetooth, a 1.3 megapixel camera and radio with me everywhere i go. Yeah! I'm identified on my phone as MiRaNtZ - SGBOY.

But the problem is that, i don't really know who to use bluetooth to communicate. haha...

Went to watch The Magic Fundoshi tonight. Starring Hossan Leong, Robin Goh and Emma Yong. It started with Glen Goei making a speech about Wild Rice, his theatre company and all the censorship issues in singapore. A rather unique setup of the stage, with a little red blub on top of the set, and he was saying, for those who are a little sensative, just close your eyes when the red light comes on. The show consists of 3 short plays and during the third play, the red light was on throughout.

Went for supper at Suntec's Carl Jr. Was rather nice. Free flow of drinks too.

Don's murder: Suspect in custody after 13 years

A Malaysian man wanted for the murder of a gay NUS professor 13 years ago has finally been arrested.

A murder that was committed 13 years ago and shocked the academic and the gay world has resurfaced. The death of Professor Lee Kok Cheong, who was the head of National University of Singapore's English Proficiency Unit, aroused considerable debate among the gay men here and this particular case will be the hot topic for many a few weeks to come.

Besides holding a top academic job, he was also publicly gay. This is the reason why this was such a sensational case especially back in a decade where people were still not as receptive to the idea of homosexuality.

Professor Lee, 54 at his death, was murdered in December 1993. He had lived alone, and for a while his murderers remained unknown and at large. A mystery telephone tip to the police two years after the murder provided them with their first break, and after a few years of investigation, the story finally pieced together. Too Yin Sheong, 26 was arrested and charged with the capital offence of murder. He was subsequently hanged.

Here's the story:

The Professor met Too in a coffeeshop and had invited him to his home in October 1993. Professor Lee made some advances towards Too in the house which caused Lee to feel uncomfortable and he left. However, the Professor was a rich man and it clearly displayed the valuable antiques he collected. Too took notice of them and stored it up for further usage.

Two to three weeks later, Too mentioned this episode to two friends, Ng Chek Siong, 27 (in 1998), and an anonymous someone by the nickname Kim Beh. Kim Beh suggested that it might be worthwhile to rob the Professor, and the way to gain entry was for Too to arrange a meeting on the pretext of introducing Kim Beh to the Professor.

The murder was set for December 12. Ng Chek Siong waited in the car outside the Professor's house whileToo and Kim went into the house. While the Professor was distracted, they went into the kitchen, found some knives and a cord, and with these murder tools, they tied him up, stabbed and strangled him. They then ransacked the house, stealing his ATM bank card. Too later used this card to withdraw cash.

Ng Chek Siong was found guilty of "passively" taking part in the killing of Professor Lee by not doing anything to prevent the murder from taking place and was given 8 years' jail and 10 strokes of the cane for robbery, theft and cheating.

Kim Beh however, was and has been on the run for the past 13 years. He was finally arrested last June by the Malaysian police for theft offences. Released from prison on Friday, he was brought back here and is currently in police custody.

New Computer

At last, i've recived the new pc and i'm using it.

A Fujistu model P321 Desktop. Pentium 4, 2.9mhz, 256 mb of ram, which i paid S$190 to upgrade another 512mb of ram making it 768mb now with a 17" CRT monitor and 80gb hard disk.

I gave the 17" CRT monitor to my dad and i gave him my old pentium 4, 1.7mhz. I took the new fujistu and used back my old 15" LCD monitor.

I fixed up the old hard disk, but it seems that it's not reading so i've to troubleshoot it.. most proberly tomorrow. I've decided to use OpenOffice. It's free unlike Microsoft Office. Maplestory's taking a long long time to download. Can't play it today coz it's still downloading...

Downloaded mIRC, MSN Messenger, winamp, Firefox, Antivirus programs and antispyware so far...

Will try to retrieve my data from my old hard disk.. especially all my songs.. argh.... luckily it's all ripped from cd's which i bought, so it's not piracy.. hahaha....


Nitez ppl.

New Function/Feature

Nothing much happened today.

I'm still waiting for my new Fujistu desktop that my dad won to arrive.

And my camp has upgraded all the computers. Mindef has leased all computers from HP for 3 years. That's good news. No more computers inside room inventory and the computers are so much faster. Pentium 4 with 504mb of ram and Windows XP Service Pack 1.

In case if you haven't noticed, there's now a Live Support button or icon (whatever you call it) under the About Me section. It enables you guys to chat with me if i'm online or leave me a message if i'm offline. This is a trial program which i'm now trying on my blog, bpmc, film five and GRACE's website. If the response is good, i'll purchase it and implement it on all websites that im hosting. hehe...

Okie... got to go... btw, ty the software and let me know how you find it.

Cheers and goodnight. God Bless!

Confinement

Went to watch on the opening night, which was on thursday, 2nd feb.

Bug in Countdown Timer

After 15 seconds of troubleshooting, i realised that what caused my blog to stop loading after the caption ORD Countdown Timer was a bug in the javascript's scripting itself.

Now, it's back up and i can finally post and blog again...

Watched I Not Stupid Too with jared today. Was a nice show. go watch it.

I've made up my mind to work for ann siang. will be resigning from cgh.

am going to malaysia at 9 plus later... hhmmm time for me to sleep.. haha...

Nitez all..

Btw, i've not received a single red packet coz i dun celebrate CNY.

Have a Blessed Gay Lunar New Year people!

Dilema

Supposed to go to city harvest church today but didn't in the end as something cropped up in church. Will be going again most prob on the 28th.

I'm in a dilema. is that how's it's supposed to be spelled?? haha....

I'm going to ORD in about 3 months time. After i ORD, i ought to be working. I've been offered jobs by 2 places. Changi General Hospital as well as Ann Siang Media. ASM is the one in charge of SGBOY.COM. So indirectly, i'll be working for SGBOY.

I want both. I love Nursing and i love the Media industry. Both has its pros and cons... Nursing = Shift Duties and 5 day week, ASM = Office hours and 5 day week. Pay wise, it's about the same so i dun really bother.

If i were to join Nursing, i wouldn't be able to go elsewhere in furture as who would want to employ me when i'm like 25 and have no other experience other then nursing? But if i were to join ASM, if i'm fired or when i resign, i can always re-join back nursing...

I'm not talking about SGBOY, as a gay point of view. I'm looking forward to it as i would be able to deal with my interest. Media. Meeting People. Making Contacts. Sigh....

What can i do? I'll just pray and pray and pray. I pray that God will lead me to what he wants me to do. Please pray along with me also. Thank you my dear friends.

God Loves You, no matter what your religion is. He Loves You.

My friends, you're Blessed! I am, too!

Selamat Hari Raya Haji

Here's wishing all my muslim friends a Selamat Hari Raya Haji!

Woke up late today, almost 2pm. Didn't do anything productive today. just recorded and digitized City Harvest's christmas musical drama, Christmas Land. Had in WMV format. about 600mb... Video and Audio quality not that good though.. just OK to view.. it's nice tat's why i bothered to record it down... and it was a tedious process.

Slept again at 5pm and woke up at 7.30pm to have dinner with joe.

Last night, i had someone smsing me suddenly asking how he could be a talent with my company.. hehe...

Added a ORD Countdown timer in my blog.. hehe..

Next Public Holiday: Lunar New Year - 28 February.

Okie... Time to sleep.. Goodnight Peeps!

Rainy Day

It's been raining since last night and until now, the rain hasn't stopped. I've not stepped out of the house for the whole of today. Rotting at home...

I've finally put up most of the articles onto my blog. Click on the My Articles hyperlink to view all my articles. Some are nice, especially the stories. I'm hoping to archive the Beijing Story online soon. It's so difficult to find it and i hope to archive it before that server goes poop, and there goes...

The Beijing Story is the english translation of Lan Yu, a film by Stanley Kwan. It's a classic gay novel. It was screened in singapore uncut sometime last year. Yup, i do have the VCD with me, so if you want, you'll have to contact me.

Okie.. and back to my articles. I hope you'll enjoy reading them. The very first article was in year 2001, that was when i was in sec 4. So that's when i started having my own homepage, as it was then called. Now's it's website.. haha... It's been a long way...

I'll continue writing articles when i have the time to, or when i'm not feeling lazy. It should be sometime this week as i've to have my article on my recent thailand trip for publication this coming weekend.

Cheers!

Update of Skin

I'm updating my skin again... rather, more add-ons to my skin.. haha... just that.. some of it dun work...

Well, nothing eventful happened thses few days..

Time to sleep...

God Bless!

New Song

I woke up only at 3pm today. That's a total of 13 hours of sleep. It's not always that i have the chance to sleep for this long.

Did nothing much today. After i woke up, i went online and changed all the copyright dates from 2005 to 2006.. It's a new year.. haha... Look at all the other websites.. it's still 2005.. but all the websites hosted by me are until 2006.. hehe.. efficient huh?

I've changed the song from Child of Light to Indescribable. It's a song by Chris Tomlin from his album Arriving. I'm thinking of getting his album soon. I'm also wanting to get a few more albums.. Some of those i'm targeting would be the latest one by Delirious as well as the latest one by Hillsongs, the united live series.

That should be after jan 10.. wen my pay comes in.. haha....

And i think i'm starting dating soon... I've chanced upon someone but i dunno what that person's response to me is. well, i'll take one step at a time ba and i'll just leave everything in God's hands.

Back to work tomorrow. I dread that. Ciaoz.

Happy New Year

Year 2005 has past and it's now gone. With a blink of an eye, it's already year 2006. Time really flies. It was just only a moment ago that we last had a countdown to year 2005 and before all of us know it, it's already countdown to 2006.

I've been very busy for the past week or so due to the christmas musical. I had the chance to visit Free Community Church and attend their christmas service on christmas evening.

Yesterday was BPMC's Watchnight concert and downdown service. It was the first time in BPMC's history that i saw so many people raising their hands and some jumping during worship especially during the closing of the concert. People wanted encores and eveything wasn't enough. They wanted more! How i wished that i could see this happening every sunday and that the strength of our church would grow. I believe that this is just the starting.

I went to FCBC's Youthnet new year's day celebration. FCBC has really grown. Since it opened it doors in Touch Center in Marine Parade. It's now over at Max Pavilion at Expo. Comparing it to City Harvest, the former still needs to brush up on certain aspects and it would be perfect.

I hope that 2006 will be a better year for all of us here. I pray that God will touch the hearts of those who do not know Him yet. I pray that the broken hearted, the weak, weary and worn-out souls will be restored. As for myself, I pray that my walk with God will be closer and closer.

It's 3 months more before i ord in april. I will be back to work in CGH. I do not know what my plans are or where my future lies. I can only live day-by-day on His word and what He has already planned for me. If he wants me to stop nursing and go into full-time ministry work or even full-time mission work, i'll have to follow... it's like the song... so lead me i'll follow....

I'm so glad that it's monday tomorrow and it's a public holiday off-in-lieu. I need the well-deserved rest.

Have a great and Blessed year ahead.

Woke up early today... went to my cousin's house and then went to White Sands Primary School.... Primary 1 orientation so went there to give out the flyers.. haha...

thereafter, went to church for the rehearsal...

den went to raffles place to meet my camp mates.... Ah Seng, Ah Meng, Kenny, Nicholas and Joseph.... Went to Far East Square for dinner at this japanese "restaraunt".. quite ok the food, i would say... might return in future... haha...

den walked all the way from there to suntec city and we had dessert at NYDC... yum yum.... cheese cake.. den meng left us and we went for the movie.. quite a nice one... twist in the story towards the end, but alas, a sweet ending.

and oh.... we took pictures using ah seng's camera phone.... so will have to wait till he sends it to us via email and i'll publish it...

and yeah.... pL called me after dinner and asked me about some camp stuffs.... and i asked ah seng... coz he's in charge of clothing.. and pL tot i was in camp or something.. haha... and in the end, i passed the call to ah seng.. guess i must be hated by ah seng le coz i'm like to bad guy shooting arrows to him... well, no choice wad.... pL shoot to me.... and pL oso no choice wad.. his staff shoot to him wan.... whahhaha.... poor pL.... he's like so stressed and weary these days....

Imagine S$50 worth of kuehs for 15 persons.... That's about S$3 per head.... so that works out to about 4 pieces of kueh per person, if i take a piece of kueh at S$0.70. it seems that my careful budgeting and my handphone will come in handy again.. haha....

Instead of having a mini-bus to bring me for out-detail, i'll be having a 10-seater commercial bus to bring me around this time... haha... reason: lack of drivers... i've invited pL if he would like to come with me for the local purchase.. haha.... and i guess i would be the lunch delieveryman again.. taking orders from people; BK, KFC, Mac... wad else?? haha....

My very first .com.sg site which i'm maintaining. It seems that the 2nd would be coming soon... my church's site might be moving out of .info and moving to .org.sg or .com.sg as well.. haha...

Tomorrow, back to the center to help my cousin and his wife.. den thursday, another public holiday. might be going to my dad's friend house for lunch as he invited my dad and me.... he's a muslim therefore celebrates hari raya puasa.

Hopefully tomorrow will be a day where i can rest in camp.. haha....

And ya... i've to give a few pieces of cake to pL as i told him tat i was baking on friday and he asked if his share was in it.. so ya.. hahah.....

Cheers everyone!

I Died

The LRI team came today. My store was checked.

7 line items wrong... 6 surplus and 1 defie.

To prevent OC's head from rolling, we're going back to camp tomorrow to recount everything, every single item in the stores which are not checked yet.. and i'll be going to all teh offices to do their room inventory...

I wonder what time we'll be able to finish, else, will spend a whoel saturday in camp, which i wouldn't want to...

I'm supposed to attend the missions conference tomorrow from 9am to 5 pm... sigh... seems that i'll be missing the morning part...

I was on the same bus with pL on my way to TM after camp... he was such a darling to accompany me to Life bookshop and then walk me to the bus interchange and then he left for home which was in the other direction... If his partner ever bullies him, well, i guess, ... *dunno what to say*... haha....

Yup... i pre-ordered the cd, Change Your World by Darlene Zschech. And i've paid for it... S$19.72... after 10% discount for students.. heheh.... ready for collection on monday...

Cheers and Good Night...

Goodnight Jesus!

Pre LRI

LRI's tomorow... or rather, today.. hahah....

left camp only at about 11.30pm.. and managed to catch the 2nd last bus home....

going to sleep now... very very tired...

goodnight.

Tired me

Left camp only at 10pm.

OC was supposed to check my store at 6.30pm but due to the ranking exercise ending only at 5, i wasn't able to get my store ready by that time as there's lots of washing to do.... blame it on those who drinks coffee or tea... After washing everything and so forth, it was time for oc to check, but he was no-where to be found... nah.. he didn't go anywhere... he went to check another store first...

By the time he came to check my store, he just walked in, sat down on the chair, asked me to take out the room inventory which i did, and he looked through and just said, "there's nothing for me to check in your store" and left. Phew! what a relief. I was left dumbfolded. And i didn't even pray... well, bad bad me, but i just left out God in moments like these...

I really want to thank God for all that He's done for me. His Grace... no words can describe it... how deep or how far or long....

it's just checking of emails and to blog, to read some other's blog and time for sleep. I shall sleep at 11.30pm latest. lucky pL. having off tomorrow....

Praise God. and now, it's time for bed.

Tired

Had lunch with pL today.... managed to chat wif him.. haha... has been a long time since i last had lunch with him...

I'm so tired... i might stay in tomorrow if the need arises to...

and my oc just said that after lri, all of us will have a break.... a 5-day-off??? whahha...

just managed to get a list of nightspots, places to eat and to go to in chiang mai from utopia asia. hehe.....

going to sleep liaoz... i've been feeling very tired these days although i get more than 7 hours of sleep.. guess it's stress....

nitez...

Chiang Mai

Chiang Mai, here i cum...

I'll be leaving for Chiang Mai from Singapore via Tiger Airways Flight 128 on the 28th of November 2005 at 16.45 hours and will return to Singapore via Tiger Airways Flight 129 on the 5th of December at 23.30 hours. Anyone wants to send me off or receive me at the airport?? haha....

Airfare costs S$259.46 for a round trip (SIN - CNX - SIN). Whoa.. That's a heavy load.... I'm now surviving on S$40 for the whoel of this month till payday on 10th of November.... sigh....

Exit Permit Applied and Approved... Now, have to apply for leave.. haha... I've about 7.5 days left for this year (including those brought forward from last year...) minus the 5 days which i'll be taking for the trip... so equals 2.5 days left for this year... and for next year, i'll have another 7 days... yeah! well, i'm not as fortunate as pL as he has lotsa leave left... sigh....

Anyway, will be sleeping soon.. haha... but not so early.. definately before 10...

Goodnight Guys!

For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love,
I'll be a weakness in the silences
When words are not enough,
Every breath I take
We'll give thanks to God above,
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love...

Den, he said "my blog more interactive lor people see all faint .coz most of the time all so long", "all so nt nice" and "na ni na ni na na".... Sob sob...

Goodnight people... really no mood le....

SWEAT @ Happy, Singapore

Went to SWEAT.05 at Happy last night...

Reached at about 11.15pm.. was early so went over to maxwell hawker center to get myself a drink... sugar cane juice... just a small cup costs $1.50. It's so expensive...

Gathered outside Happy and we all went in together... 7 of us in all. 1 female. Nickky...

My shift was from 3am to 4am... Despite having a smaller quantity of bags to give out, as of 4am, there were still about 50 or so that weren't given out yet.... So just left it on the chair...

At about 2am, CID from the Licencing Unit came.... 3 policeman in civilian were at the back door and i presume that there were some in the front as well. The music stopped suddenly and there was an announcement made, asking all those topless to wear back their clothes....

Then they left shortly...

Anyway, who's going to the next SWEAT? SWEAT.06

See you guys, for those who are going...

Void Deck

I'm now sitting at the void deck of a HDB block in Bishan... Supposed to meet my friend to ton overnight at his place, but then am still waiting for for his parents before i can enter his house..

Luckily, i brought my laptop and viola, there was an unsecured wireless here.. haha... and i managed to get onto it here i am.. haha...


Went to watch Quidam with Jared on tuesday...

As to what i posted in the Quidam thread over at sgboyx,

Just came back frmo the show today....

was awesome....

the Food and drinks are so damn ex... cutting throat, and not only that, after cutting, add salt....

Soft Drinks & Water - S$5
Popcorn - S$6 & 7...

The dvd's @ S$50... the tshirts there... even the S kinda "big" for me also... sigh.. maybe coz i'm too small.. whahaha... in the end, ended up buying a XL female blouse for myself.. whahhahaha....

That's it for now... It's back to office in the morning, or worse come to worse, take a cab over to office... Meeting my friend, the reformed ah-beng, raymond at my office at about 9... pL's having the last lesson with his music teacher... he likes the teacher very much but he's leaving.... hope he gets a better teacher or at least, someone who can really teach him, without expecting him to go for grading... that's the thing i hate most about music... grading...

Anyway, not sure if he'll be popping over to my office after his lesson though...

Signing off!

Mooncakes

Made Mooncakes again today after i came back from my Volunteer Training with AfA.

Just done with my recording of videos.. damn tired.... stoopid videos...

nitez.

Durian Cake

I started to prepare the ingredients and tools immediately after i reached home, not before switching on my pc... ahha....

Durian Cake... 3 layers... Top and Bottom: The durian flavored sponge cake and Middle: Pure Durian Filling.... Sounds tempting yeah???

Will be bringing some to camp tomorrow to let my friends try... and gave my dad a box also for him to bring to his office...

Might be going down to Joe's friend's shop to collect the battery that i bought for my videocam... else my dad will do that.... so in total, i've 2 new batteries.. hehe...

Nitez people...

Nitez Daddy God!

Mooncake Failure

Sigh.... Failed to make my durian mooncake today.. no mood to talk liaoz.. or even type...

guys, beware of wad you blog.... 2 users of sgboyX was charged in court today for racist comments in either their blogs or in forums.

"The charges read that Lim had, on 16 and 17 June 2005, posted anti-Muslim remarks on the general discussion forum of www.doggiesite.com.

Koh was alleged to have done the same on 12, 15 and 17 June on another website, www.upsaid.com."

And yeah... I'm going to watch Quidam.... The circus... Jared's mum called and asked if i would like to accompany Jared to go watch.. so i agreed after much hesitation coz of the cost... she would definately pay for everything... and the cheapest tix is like $69..... i must find a way to pay her back at least 3/4 of it....

And i've just received my Singapore Nursing Board renewal of licence letter asking me to renew my licence as it'll expire on 31 December 2005... and i'll have to renew it for another year... it's so troublesome... having to renew my licence every year... S$20 fly away again....

It is an offence to practise nursing without a valid practising certificate. Your registration or enrolment as a nurse or midwife may be cancelled if your practising certificate has not been renewed for a continuous period of 5 years.

Sleep time... Night....

One More Chance

Went to watch the movie by Jack Neo, One More Chance with my parents just now. In fact, i've just arrived home not too long ago.

Zheng You Huang (Mark Lee) has a tendency to brag and lie. It finally gets him into trouble with the law and he’s put to prison when his ex-girlfriend Mei Bao (Apple Hong) is pregnant with his child. Upon his release from prison six years later, he tries to regain the trust of Mei Bao and his six year old daughter (Megan Tay) but realizes that it will not be easy to get his family back as Mei Bao now has a new boyfriend, Mike (Cheng Hong). You Huang’s good friends from prison, Xu Hui (Henry Thia), and Ah Guang (Marcus Chin) also face different challenges as they attempt to reform their ways after they are released from prison.

It's local movie with quite a nice storyline and is touching and comical yet at the same time, lame. I would personally give it 3 out of 5 stars...

I got to know this guy online who's having Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). It's sad to see that people still treat mental illness as a stigma.... I hoping that i would be able to know him better and be his friend....

And, the "cat" aka the guy going to be my "assistant" will be posted to me tomorrow... my my.... But i know that my Daddy God already has plans for me and him. I'm sure that God will guide me through this period.

Goodnight peeps and you're all Blessed by Him to sits on the throne above!

Lonely... I'm so lonely...

This few days has been tiring... Yesterday and today...

We're finally our office out from Blk 12 to Blk 37, the former MT Line building...

My store's finally more or less settled. Accounting's the big problem now... All the ranks and the drill ammunitions...

Tomorrow morning, dialogue cum forum @ 8.45am in the officers' mess and they want sofas... I'm not affected in any way as i'll be busy preparing the refreshments for the function but my poor collegues would have to shift the sofas from one building to the other... and back after the function. Such a trouble...

I hope that we'll be getting off's soon... I wish that it would happen...

I'm feeling lonely... I'm not feeling empty. In fact, i'm filled with the Spirit of the Lord... I'm lonely, maybe coz i'm without a partner... But when will God place someone to be with me? Maybe it's just that God wants me to wait and have the fruits of the spirit - Patience.

I've realised that i've been challenged many times by God. Sometimes i fail, sometimes not. At the rate that i'm going now, i'm on track..

Time to sleep..

Nitez!

Lappy's sick....

My lappy's sick.. Actually not really very sick la... just that, he's partially dumb....

You see, whenever i plug in a jack into the audio jack, instead of having the sound coming from the audio output, it still comes out from the lappy's speakers.... So can i say that it's wailing?? hahaha....

Called DELL and they asked me to flash bios. Done that but to no avail...

Will have to get the technician to come over to get it cured... else my poor lappy will be either partialy dump or, partially deaf... depending on how you look at it...

Congrats to Suat Ling.. She gave birth to a healthy baby boy.... The boy's Blessed!

Cheers!
