Innovationation - Play, touch and learn

The tagboard's server's down. I've since removed it temporarily.

Woke up at 9am to wake kennie up. went back to sleep all the way till 11am, bathed and went to meet kennie in the train. Went to singapore expo hall 3 to see the innovationation. Was quite big and interesting. Went to changi airport thereatfter and had lunch there. The skytrain changed. It's nicer but i dun kinda like it. Went to teh budget terminal. it's rather small and nothing much at all. only 1 hans. Brought him to bedok and had a tour of my estate and then we had dinner at the hawker center in bedok south. We had hokkien mee and he said that it was nice. Went to bedok central to eat chendol over at the hollywood stall. The standard had dropped.

Walked around for a while more and i sent him off to the bus stop. After he left, i kinda felt alone all over again. How i wish i could have him with me always. I think i'm getting addicted to him...

Can he be the one that i want? Can he be my significant other half? Can he be the person that i can love and cherish? It's opened ended. It's a BIG question mark.

It hurts.

IMM

Nothing much happened this week. Took care of my patient on monday night and wednesday night. It's friday. Went out with kenneth to IMM and walked around. Took 67 back home and slept in the bus. Will be going with him to Innovation Nation tomororw at singapore expo, den to changi airport, den to bedok and after that, dinner in the west.

Sigh... I'm begining to draw closer and closer to him, but alas, he's not even ready for anything yet. He's still afraid i guess. I'm just waiting for the time and day.... It's not a nice feeling... longing for something and not being able to get it. It takes 2 hands to clap. I've never felt anything like this for such a long long time, more than 2 years to be exact...

I'm waiting and hoping for the best...

SUNday - What's with the Haze and PSI readings?

It's SUNday! The last day of the weekend and the first day of the week (you can tell that i'm not very optismistic here). Slept only for about 6 or so hours after chatting with kennie on the phone and being forced to put down by my mum. She was like screaming her lungs out and i think tat frightened off kennie as well - he described her as fierce. Poor him.

Woke up at 10.15am. Didn't want to wake up initially and felt like just being uncontactable except to the ones close to my heart and *selected* friends of mine so that i could just skip working. I'm like so bad horz.. haha... Of course i didn't and forced myself out of the bed.

My patient wasn't very cooperative today. Slept the whole time. Slept when bathing, slept when eating, didn't want to open his mouth when i fed him and slept when watching tv. Oh wait! How can you sleep when you watch tv - so that goes to say tat he didn't watch at all - i was instead. haha....

Went home and slept all the way from 4.30 to 8pm. Woke up and realised that the haze today wasn't that bad. Went to NEA's website to check the psi readings. I'm a little confused. The readings are different. Oh well, i don't care much as long as i've clean air. How i wished that it was like that on friday and yesterday - not becuase i was out with kennie but coz friday was lantern festival and i went with kennie to chinese garden to see lanterns. Couldn't even see the moon lorz.. such a waste. How 2 shang ye like tat??? Den yesterday movie Xmen2 and Xmen3 at the padang. Well, but even with the haze, i enjoyed my time wif kennie... :)

Okie.. time 2 sleep. It's monday tomorrow and it's back to work all over again.

Goodnight!

Unhealthy

I just woke up. Opened my window and i thought that i was in genting highlands (bedok branch). Checked the PSI and it's 130 - unhealthy. Oh my... I'm supposed to go to teh nokia starlight cinema tonight. how??? Will it be cancelled??? i hope the psi will drop so that it'll not be cancelled...

And if it's not cancelled, i would have to sit near to the screen, else i'll be watching a blur movie.. hahaha....

Happy belated lantern festival. Isit lantern festival or mooncake festival? haha... Went to chinese gardens to celebrate - just by walking around admiring all the different types of lanterns. Went with kenneth. Enjoyed the time with him... And i took photos.. hehe... All thanks to him that i took it, else do you think that i would take it? haha... Well, i guess he has an edge over me ba...

Okie.. time to change soon. Going to vivocity to catch the official opening of golden village vivocity. Hopefully i can get the free movie tix being given to the 1st 200 ppl... hahaha...

Ciaoz!

512k sux

The internet is not meant for users with connection speeds of 1Mbps and below. That includes me - a 512kpbs user.

It's been a tiring weekend. I received an sms on friday evening from my friend asking me if i could take care of an individual patient during the weekend. I agreed as i had no plans and besides, it's not a full day affair - only 6 hours per day.

Woke up at 10am on saturday. Surfed the net and cleared up some work. Left my house at about 11.05 and realised that i'll be late if i took a bus. Took a cab to the venue instead. Kensinton Park Condo. A car was in front of the cab when i alighted and my friend waved me over. Went over to the five star chinese rice place at serangoon gardens for lunch, i didn't eat as i had cereals in the morning. Thereafter, went to toa payoh to collect something and then to balestier plaza for shopping at ntuc. By the time we arrived back home, it was already close to 4. And then my patient slept all the way till 5.50pm. Den i changed his diapers for him and went off. That's easy and he's a very very simple guy. I charged them my standard rate and they seemed quite happy and satisfied with it.

Went to meet Lennel at city hall and we ended up in Hans national library for dinner. Thereafter, to blue heaven to do my audit and also at the same time, to collect the leftovers from the RED subscription promo. After blue heaven, went back to office to put down the stuffs as well as to deposit the cash into the bank - i didn't want to get robbed and risk losing my life. Money's not of a problem to me. Oh heck with it - i shall not go on with this. Went to Happy for sweat after that. I paid $40 for the cK Love t shirts when i could get it for free - i didn't know that we would be giving out instead of Happy's staffs. So in the end, i paid for nothing. Well, at least i got my share worth. *grinz* Well, you know who that tee will go to la... That special someone of mine. Hopefully he'll appreciate it and not be a letdown to me. But o well(s), i've been used to these letdowns and dissapointments. I'm already immune to it but i just hope that this time round, it would work out. I've never had this type of feeling for someone since i left my ex more than 2 years back. Reached home close to 5 and slept only at 6am.

Woke up at 10am and did my usual routine work online and ate cereals. Took a cab to my patient's home again. Nothing eventful. Left at 6.30pm - no, i didn't chare for an additional hour as i willingly stayed behind when i could have left. Well, but all these is no big deal so yup yup... Supposed to go to airport to send boss away, but he didn't want me to go as was afriad that he would cry and he doesn't want to see him cry.. haha...

So now i'm back. Very tired and i'm going to sleep now.

Goodnight!

1988 Outing | Mooncakes

Went back to office on saturday to settle the unfinished work (work never finishes). I then got an sms asking me to join the guys from the 1988 thread in the forums to join them for their outing. I agreed. But i was not dressed correctly. I was wearing a tee (those where you wear for marketing), shorts and slippers. Not giving a thought about it, i just went. Went for dinner at pastamania and followed by a chill out session outside starbucks, the one opp cineleisure.Thereafter, we walked all the way to tanjong pagar, passing SMU, chinatown and all the gay merchants. Arrived at Mox at 2am. Was told that they'll be closing at 2.30. Ordered a shirley's temple and drank - almost gulped it down. And the waitress there was such a bitch (oops, female = butch). Real attitude lorz... Shan't say more.

Left Mox and went to Happy, Taboo and finally rested outside WhyNot. Then, drama occured. Someone slapped someone... but no punches though... Gays are less likely to punch each other. Left at 4am and reached home at about 5am. It's nice being with people younger than me - makes me feel young, not that i'm old oso la.. haha...

Slept only at 7am. Woke up at 2pm. Surfed the net a little and started making mooncakes at 5pm. And finished only close to 9pm. That's how long i take to make 30 mini snowskin mooncakes. Pandan flavored snowskin mooncakes with green tea filling. Have not tried it as yet. Will do so tomorrow.

Sleeptime soon.

Wednesday's the start of the Nokia Starlight Cinema series and i'll be going for the movie premiere of American Dreamz and Kenneth's following me... hehe...

Goodnight! Sweet dreamz people...

Monday

It's Monday! Couldn't sleep well last night. Kept tossing and turning in bed. Maybe cause i slept early and my body's not used to it? And now, i'm freakin' tired. Well, was partially thinking of someone too though... hehe... *oops, that cheeky laugh of mine*

Woke up, went to work. Nothing eventful. Made numerous calls today informing them thay had won tickets to little miss sunshine. It's tomorrow, 7.15pm at Prince and i'll be watching it with Kenneth.

Time to sleep soon. Really tired and boss will be back tomorrow from his overseas trip. Hmmm... do you think he'll buy something for me? /me wonders...

Have a nice night people and you're Blessed!

Goodnight!

It's Sunday!

Sunday. Woke up only at 1pm. Didn't do much. Changed plug for my modem as someone told me to do so... Went online. Uploaded photos to hotbods. Ate cereals. Watched the movie I Not Stupid Too. Rotted the whole day in front of the computer.

At about 5pm, this guy messaged me. Here's part of the transcript:-

[17:59] (**): u know **??
[17:59] (**): vefore supply coy
[17:59] (**): was from Sof

At that point of time, my heart nearly skipped a beat. Was it the guy which i knew and which i initially thought was nice? OMG!!! Then, i found out that there were 2 persons with the similar name and that i didn't know him...

[18:06] (**): I REMEMBER YOU LIAO

He gave me his URL to his Yahoo photo album. He looked familar. He's someone i knew through the course of my job. I would not say anything more though...

We exchanged numbers...

[18:22] (**): [Name]

I was thinking to myself, Hey! I don't even know you well lorz.. We've just met each other once and you've heard so much about me while i've not heard anything about you and here you wanna be qin xie with me...

And after some time later while we were chatting, he just said this...

[19:16] (mirantz): :P
[19:16] (**): ETC.

That's it about him ba... Well well, i'm so glad that i'm still remembered by people in camp for the good things. I'll have sweet dreams and a good sleep tonight. At least i know that people from camp won't come and haunt me at night or even when they die.. (oops.. choy choy, touch wood - 7th month cannot anyhow say).

Chatted with Kenneth.. Enjoyed it very much. Hendri's in Batam now for a meeting which his company sent him for. Poor him. Putting up in a motel with no aircon and lotsa mozzies. One good thing's that he has free access to the computer terminate and free usage of the internet. I wonder if i would be able to have it in Bangkok. My mailbox will just most prob get flooded and explode. Director and Chief Executive will not be in Singapore for 6 whole days. I hope that sales will not dip. haha... Oh ya, back to where i was (i'm always drifting from one topic to another), Hendri's coming back tomorrow night, so that's one thing good that he can look forward to.

It's 10.14 pm. It's so boring. Had cereals for dinner again just now. Nothing else to eat as i couldn't get in touch with my dad as i wanted him to ta-bao for me. Next time, if i'm old and still single (i hope i would not be next time), and i don't pick up my calls, maybe i'm like starved to death at home (0r office) le. haha...

Nitez.

It's Saturday

It's Saturday! Erm... not now coz it's already past midnight so by right, should be sunday la.

Woke up at noon, went online for a while, approved all the C.A.P ads and vetted through all the dockets pictures. My colleague smsed me 15 mins after i woke up and i didn't even know it as my phone's in silent mode. Not even vibrating as i will put my phone to silent without vibrating on friday and saturday nights when i sleep so that i can have my uninterrupted sleep. At about 12.45pm, the flashing of the phone caught my eye while i was reading the forums. My colleague called saying that he was reaching bugis in 5 mins time and ask where i was. I was like OMG... I rushed through my shower and went to meet him.

Went to office thereafter to clear up some of my work (even though there's not much work to be cleared). From the window of my office, i looked down and the road was packed with police and heavy traffic. A small stretch of North Bridge Road, starting from the junction of Middle Road was closed for the IMF. The view from my office's as shown on the right. That's the library if you can't recognize or if you haven't seen it before. (picture taken using a K800i - bos si's phone)

Went to Lennel's home to play with his dog. Brought along a dvd and watched it in his room. Was just like a cinema with 5.1 surround sound - just that the screen's small. haha... Ta bao-ed dinner thereafter from a nearby coffeeshop. Food was bad. I would rather have Macdonalds and get fatter den to eat that. lol... He lent me the Recycle DVD as well as the I Not Stupid 2 DVD and i can watch it tomorrow (today in fact).

Came home. Did nothing much. Chatted with my di and kenneth. And i just learnt that my friend has been suspended from his job for this whole week pending a police investigation. Wouldn't want to say much on it. Going to sleep soon.

Goodnight peeps and have a happy sunday!

Pink.sg

Nothing much today. I don't have my bunch of keys with me for now. I passed it to my collegue to open the office door this morning and he didn't return it to me. He didn't even realise it until he was home. Gosh. Hope that i can meet up with him tomorrow to get my keys back, else i'll have to reply on my parents in order to get home.

Met up with the owners of Pink.sg. It's a blog quite nicely done up. our voice - an open blog for GLBT's. Go take a look.

Reinstalling my ad server. I forgot the password therefore i'm unable to login to change the ads. Now uploading all the 755 files into my server before i can begin the installation.

I'm tired. Goodnight.

P.S. I think i'm starting to work on my love life again. haha... that's provided someone's responsive.

Belated post.

Nothing much today. Went out with my di, Jerviel. Had dinner at Hans National Library. Went to Coffeebean for tea.

Do you speak english? Do you speak good english? What is Good English? Do you want to speak good english? When do you want to speak good english? Give an example of good english. Give an example of bad english. WHY to all questions. Do you speak singlish? Do you speak good singlish? What is Good singlish? Do you want to speak good singlish? When do you want to speak good singlish? Give an example of good singlish. Give an example of bad singlish. WHY to all questions. This are the questions that were thrown to me in an interview that was studying linguistics in uni.

Okie. And this sux. I accidentally kicked the plug of the router and now my internet connection is lost. Now i can't connect to the net. I can't even connect to my router. No route to host.

Arggh... i dun wanna blog anymore. what's the use when i'll only save this entry to my hard disk and publish only it tomorrow? I'll just type everying in tomorrow's post.

Ciaoz.

Hair do

Woke up. Ate cereals. Went to have my hair cut and dyed. This time round, it's not too bad. Didn't get my brains cooked - just roasted, thanks to the butterfly machine i had to sit under. I can't wash my hair till tomorrow night. Aye.... i dun like that. It'l so difficult to bathe without getting my hair wet. Yes, i wash myhair whenever i bathe, so when i bathe 4 times a day, i wash(and soap) my hair 4 times. Okie - let's move on. No more details about me bathing. Dun think wrongly and this is not a place to get your dicks (if you have) flying high or getting your pussies (again, if you have) wet. Ewww.. i never like the word pussy, let alone pussies (multiple puss-es) and also wet pussy (or wet pussies). It's just simply a turn off for me. And wait. Why am i talking so much about it when i find it gross and it's turning me off? Wait. If i'm not even turned on, how can i be turned off?

Stayed at home the whole day. Ate cerals again for dinner. updated jm website so that i can send out the newsletter tomorrow. cleared emails. Something worng's with the server. I can't seem to send out any emails coz it keeps saying disk space full.. hmmm...

Chatted with friends online. Chatted with my di... Meeting him tomorrow for dinner. Den meeting kenneth, a train enthusiast for dinner on tuesday. It's hard to find train enthusiasts in singapore. Bus enthusiast - lots of them.

Watched Total Eclipse. It's another gay-themed movie. Don't ask me where i got it from. I always have my sources. Thanks to the internet. Haha... Sad ending. Knee tumor. Rare.

Time to sleep soon. Will do so after i finish chatting with my di and kenneth.

Nitez ppl.

Fun Day

Family fun day. Nothing much. Same as per last year just that this year's shorter. Ate 6 cups of ice cream (double scoop). I'll going to put on lotsa weight.

Met up with Alex and Jared at starbucks tampines. Jared gets 20% off coz he's a staff. That's good. Went walking around with Jared as his bf's not here yet. Couldn't accompany him any longer and left him. Went to make appointment to cut my hair tomorrow. 2pm.

Stomach's feeling hungry (or maybe not too good) now. Maybe coz i only ate a little bit today and nothing else.

Nitez.

Proud of my work.

busy day it was today. Had a meeting, followed by a JM shoot followed by setting up for tomorrow's Family Fun Day in my church. I'll be hosting again - aka playing music and blabbering into the mic with no one listening. -_-

Got to sleep. Nitez.

It's September

It's September~~~ 3 more months to Christmas and 4 more months to a new year - Year 2007. Is that fast or still a long time? It really depends on whether you looking at it from a positive or a negative viewpoint. Time really flies...

Went to mox last night and then to AfA's AGM this afternoon and also to COMEX. Bought a new D-Link Wireless ADSL router.

Boss went to Bangkok again for a holiday. Therefore, no one to play with me tomorrow and the day after.

Goodnight peeps. I'm tired. Need my beauty sleep.

P.S. The Queen - is broke. Had to ask his dad to "lend" (give) him some money last night to survive. haha...

Camera Spoilt

Was at the JM shoot today happily taking photosgraphs when the camera gave up on me.

The entire reflex mirror came off. Now i'm without a camera and i have a shoot on thursday. Should you know of anyting who has a digital SLR to lend me for 1 day, on thursday, please contact me.

Help much appreciated.

rotten

Have been rotting the whole day. Nothing much. Yesterday went to Zouk for NUS preview Bash. The guys - ok nia... And i think one of the contestants is an AJ... saw him outside maxwell wif his AJ friend after the competition. That explains the thick makeup during the pagent itself. Went to sweat at happy thereafter.

Nothing much to blog about.

Nitez.

Company Website Revamped

Nth much today. Shaking legs in the office also.

Came home and revamped my company's website - http://www.film5.org/

Now, it's time to sleep as i'm tired from all that revamping.

Tomorrow having NUS Pagent @ 7.30pm at Zouk and BRAVE is the official modelling agency. Then off to Happy for Sweat @ 11.30pm.

Goodnight!

End of SGBOY Era

There's no more SGBOY. It's the end of SGBOY. SGBOY's gone. SGBOY is no longer THE anything anymore. Trevvy's THE thing.

Trevvy will be launched sometime tomorrow.

It's kinda sad seeing sgboy go... 7 years...

Am very tired. Dunno why...

Nitez...

Everything's fine

I'm not committing suicide. Please... People have been asking me how things are and so on... After a night's rest, i'm fine.

I'm now more concerned about the launch Trevvy in less than 72 hours time than anything else. Read more about it here

And i may be having a new god-brother soon... After my one and only one turned straight - thanks to CHOICES. It's not a replacement mind you.

I should be sleep soon i guess... didn't sleep well last night...

Tata...

Jinxed in Love & Relationships

Lotsa things recently. First - Trevvy. Second - Ian & Tyler. Third - Alex. These 3 things are enough to make me crazy and stressed.

Trevvy's launched is delayed again. Ian and Tyler broke up again. It's hard being a good friend. NOt when you can't bring 2 persons face to face and then asking them to talk about it. O Wells, just another complicated issue.

Tyler's becoming a Brave model. Tyler finds Alex cute. Tyler's got the looks and the height. First Tyler asked me (or us, with alex) out for movie. Then he just asked Alex out, maybe coz i was slow in replying. Fine. I was feeling sad or jealous thereafter.

Why should i get affected??? Oh gosh. I'm not even attached to Alex. I'm not even his Partner. well, business partner - yes. But why can't he just get out of my head? This is seriously not helping. I should just stay away from him and stop meeting him.

What's the point of making myself feel hurt and bad when he's not even my partner?!?!? Grrr... I'm always in the losing end - yeah!

Caring for him - yes, coz i guess i still like him. But what's the use of having a 1 sided love and to get hurt in return? it's no point. useless. just hurting myself even more. I had a little thought about suicide for the first time. Oh My! why did i??? That should never even come to my mind. What will happen to my parents? To Dom? To ASM??? To all my friends??? well, suicide is never the way out. it's only for losers - I'm not. I've saved by GRACE by GOD! Oh my - i'm tearing.... GOD! FATHER! HELP ME! WORTHY IS THE LAMB!

Sigh...

Time to sleep. - Thanks very much Christel.

NItez.

Swimming

Nothing much today. Very tired as i went swimning with Lennel after work at Kallang Basin pool.

Came back and i bought $5 worth of sushi - all my hard work wasted. Sigh...

Time to sleep. Long day tomorrow. Trevvy's launching real soon - so that means more work - have been busy la...

Happy Birthday Singapore

It's 9 August 2006. Singapore's 41th Birthday. Happy Birthday Singapore!

Rotted almost the whole day at home. Thanks to Hendri, i went out, else i would have became a pig. Met him for dinner at TCC Bugis Junction. Thereafter, we went over to Marina Square via Suntec City. Suntec's really empty today and MS had more people. Normally it would be the other way round instead. Had the Japanese Swensens and headed back to citylink. Poor him, had to go back to office to collect some stuffs. Met Alex along the way and we took the train home together.

Other than that, nothing much. Enjoyed the time with Hendri though... He likes going Malaysia and i do too.. maybe can go there together one of these days. i miss going to Malaysia.

Goodnight people.

Shagged out @ Nite

Edwin is Alex's younger brother. What a small world this is, especially on this little red dot. Went out with Edwin to SportsmenAsia to get his TEN by intense, however it was sold out.

Woke up on sunday morning and took a cab to gleneagles hospital for my assignment. Arrived at 8am and patient was already wide awake in bed. Saw my ex-classmate, Wilson - he was the night nurse. Chatt with him for a while and then took over. Rested for a while and the patient's wife came at 9am. She was surprised that i was there as she didn't request for a day nurse. A mis-communication occured. By right, i was supposed to charge a cancellation fee of $50, but then i just waived it for her as i didn't even do anything. Must one be so calculative in life? She asked to come back at night for night shift instead and i agreed.

I came back at night and she paid me my "salary" and gave me $20 as allowance for the morning. That was so nice of her. I declined, but she kinda forced it down me, so i gladly accepted it. At first, everything was fine.

6/8/06, 2100 - Patient sat out of bed on chair.
6/8/06, 2200 - Patient still on chair, not sleeping, wide awake.
6/8/06, 2359 - Patient still on chair, not sleeping, wide awake.
6/8/06, 2359 - Patient still on chair, not sleeping, wide awake.
7/8/06, 0100 - Patient still on chair, not sleeping, wide awake.
7/8/06, 0200 - Patient still on chair, not sleeping, wide awake.
7/8/06, 0300 - Patient still on chair. Didn't want to go back to bed to sleep. I could not close my eyes even for a wink as he always wanted to stand up. And it's not a geri chair, just a normal armchair.
0330 - Patient urinated on chair and on floor. Began cleaning up. This was just the begining.
0350 - Finished cleaning up and put patient back to bed. Thought that i could now close my eyes...
0355 - Patient became restless in bed. Upon checking, he PUed and BOed on the bed. I went to prepare to clean him up.

Came home, totally shagged. Blogging now and going 2 collaspe onto my bed - hopefully for an uninterrupted sleep.

Goodnitez!

Packed weekend ahead

Has been a real busy and tiring week.

Went to SportsmenAsia and the owner, Ken said that i looked stressed and worn down... guess i really have to slow down a little and just focus on the Almighty one above.

A power-packed weekend for this and the next. 2 powerful events. this weekend, 4-6 august, Festival of Praise @ indoor stadium. Don Moen is back!

11 and 12 August, Planet shakers concert @ Expo max pavilion. Tickets selling at S$4 for students and NSFs and S$8 for adults.

So ya.. 5 powerpacked, powerful evenings. Be there, at least 1 night to be filled by God. I'm sure that you'll be greatly enriched. I'll be going on the 5th and 12th. Let me know if you wanna tag along with me.

Goodnight!

Chevrons

Nothing much today. Sweat last night at Happy. Gina, one of our female volunteers went missing. Hunted for her. Couldn't find her. Found out this morning that she was sleeping at the rooftop till 6am.

Went to church for the 30th anniversary celebration. Service ended and went to meet one of my new friend. I can't mention his name as i have to protect his identity. It's rather sensative. By saying his name, i forsee a big storm brewing causing a havock. While he had his lunch, i had milkshake as i was already full, thanks to my church for feeding me.. haha...

Went home and slept as i was very exhausted. However, i couldn't sleep well - i couldn't have an uninterrupted sleep. That's what i dislike the most. An Interrupted Sleep.

Met up with Alex and we went together to Jared's chalet @ Chevrons. Nothing much. Nearly got lost though. haha... Well, my GPS was working, just that i was misled. haha... Chatted with him and discussed about his internship opportunity in my company. He'll get back to me and if he does have his internship in my company, i'll have to start generating projects. Have to be working extra hard and thereafter plan my financial budget le.

Is this a good or bad thing? When i'm out with Alex now, at least i dun feel as though as we're a couple. I don't have the feeling of missing him anymore and i do not feel like wanting him asmy other half. It's just a liking that's still lingering. Why? I do not know. I guess that i'm no longer love-sick and that's a good sign i would say. But still when i do meet him, i feel good. It's better to stay as friends than being as partners and after breaking up, being strangers.

Time to sleep soon. It's been a long day and tomorrow will be another long day. I'll have to rush so many things. Well, life's like that, what can we do?

And ya, the song playing now, is written by my church member, Bridget Goh. She wrote the song initially for her mission trip last year and i did a recording for her cd in which she brought it over to Philippines. I'm so honored to be one of the first persons who supported her. And now in the album, it's being sang by my god-ma, Jingle.

Your Will Be Done

Lord, will You show me the way
Guide me this day
To understand Your purpose
I Come before You and pray
Let me not stray
From walking in Your presence
I'm so afriad to lose my faith
In You my Lord my Maker
Give me strength to overcome this
It's You I want to please

And I will trust in the Lord
Lean not on my own understanding
In all of my ways, acknowledge Him
Let Your will be done in my life
Let Your will be done in my life

Lord, will You use me this day
I'll do as You say
Come take away my fears
I know, it's You that will reign
You're always the same
Your promises are true
I give to You my hopes and dreams
Will You use me for Your glory
I surrender all that I am
Proclaim that You are King

Interview

Went to MCYS today for an interview. I volunteered to be a Volunteer Probation Officer.

The officers were friendly and i was in there for almost half and hour, throwing questions back and forth. All volunteers are required to take up 1 case = 1 person, Case Management. Should be able to commit for a long term basis. Probation period = from 6 to 36 months. Must make contact with client at least 4 times a month, 2 of which must be face to face, anywhere. Sounds fun and interesting.

They'll let me know the outcome of the interview in 2 weeks time if i'm successful and i'll be on a 10 hour course starting on the 26th of august and thereafter, i'm to manage a case le.

Nothing much for now. Taxi fares has risen and it's not a laughing matter. The weekend's coming le... I'll be packed this saturday. Buffet Tim Sum @ Tung Lok East Coast Park for lunch at noon and then to OC's training and thereafter to a meeting. Sweat @ nite. And i can't escape church the next day coz it's my church's 30th anniversary. So i'll just guai guai go back. haha....

Anyone wanna come with me to my church this sunday? I've asked Alex, but dunno if he's confirmed a not... Any others???

And before i close, a picture of a cute bear with it's head stuck in a computer. Nah - it's actually a USB bear. a thumbdrive la... haha...

Time 2 sleep. Goodnites.

Nothing much

Nothing much to write about these days. No happenings in my life. Just normal routine stuffs. Eat, sleep, shit.

Unable to fix the blinds in my office. Not professional enough to be a handyman.

Will apply for Diploma in Nursing in Decmeber at Ngee Ann Poly. Chances of me getting in are slim though.

Nitez.

OC Interview

Nothing much today again. Boss having stiff neck again. Think he didn't sleep properly. Somemore blame me for always blowing the aircon at him. I'm accused. Den he went ma guang to have cups placed on him. haha... and came back WITHOUT the smelly koh-yo.

Went to Ooga Chaga for an interview with Bryan and found out more about them. Not very taxing their phone duty. an average of twice per month.

Nothing much to blog about. I'm considering if i should take an intern for my company... hehe...

Cheers!

Superman Returns

Went to watch Superman Returns this evening. Ok la... didn't fall asleep. And Alex was there to keep me warm.. haha...

Nothing much to blog about today. Had lunch with my dad at Qiji at Beach Towers. Realised that Lennel's working there as well. We could have lunch or dinner one day together.

I might should happy, but i'm still in a state of loss.

Cheerios!

Milkshake

Nothing much today. Went to work as usual. Boss was feeling sick today after his Thailand trip. It's always like that when he travels overseas. Maybe he shouldn't even travel. Only Malaysia - across the causeway, so by land, no sea. haha...

Had prok porridge from Rochor market for lunch. so-so only la... not really that great and that lady selling it to me sounded like as though as her porridge is soo goood until i will want to go back to buy more like that. Well, i tell u, i wun ever go back, unless dom's sick or i'm sick den need to eat porridge lorz... Oh my.. i'm so bad. okie, i take back my words...

Went out with Tim at nite. Was supposed to go to TCC for a drink so i borrowed Dom's card but in the end, went to Billy Bombers instead. I had potato salad and cookies and cream shake. I'm feeling so guilty now, but the shake was real good though. haha... oh btw, Tim was my ex. My 2nd one in fact. My first was Darren, his brother Derrick (not a PLU) is still my good friend and we go out once in a while.

Will be going to watch Superman Returns tomorrow with Alex. Boss was commenting along the line of: Why still Alex??? Well, can't I still not go out with him even though we're not dating? Just how gay is superman? I'll find out myself tomorrow. haha...

Now, looking at my mIRC screen, there's this channel, #myplace, it's full of activities now. It was so dead just moments ago. All the memories i had while i was (and still am) in there last time. That was the very first "family" channel i joined ever since i came out, not openly though, apart from sgboy. I still remember that Samuel was the one who actually invited me over. I still see Samuel now a days over at Attica as he's actually part of the Super Sunday Party team.

Maybe, i should just have a post one day on me, my life and I. Everthing about me since i was young and all the way till now. How i came out and how i realised that i was a gay and until now, being open and out and proud about it.

Time for bed. Goodnight peeps!

Will be watching Superman on wednesday. Just how gay is superman huh?

Cheers and God Bless!

Happy Birthday Alex & Alcohol

I was awake for 22 hours. I woke up on saturday morning at 10am and i slept only this morning at 8am or even later.

Went out to collect my new specs - the one with the white frame. It makes me look different. And now with my high-lighted hair, relly different! Met up with alex in the bus and went to collect his birthday cake at mohd sultan. The cake's really nice, but costly. S$78 for 1kg. Put the cake at Miss Clarity's Cafe and slacked around at bugis - with nothing to do. I had an enjoyable time with him.

Met up with all his other friends and we went to the cafe for dinner. I had an oxtail stew with pasta. It was rather nice. Wasn't as bad as the other dishes i tried the last time.At least, now my perception of the cafe is - average. It used to be poor. haa...

Alex had to leave once he finished his dinner as some matters cropped up. I could tell that he was upset about about it, but nevertheless, he got a cab and departed us while we went over to TCC Beach Center to chill out. I believe that last night was a nite that i prayed the most - other than prayer and fast as well as prayer day/nite. I prayed for him.

We met up again at Maxwell and headed to whyNot for his celebration. I didn't drink much. Only 10mls of alcohol or less. I had oolong tea the rest of the night which i bought from a nearby 7-11 at two 500mls bottles for S$1.90. Cheapskate me. Well, just that i do not like alchohol. He cut the cake and said a silent wish and blew the candle, not before someone else did before him and it had to be lighted up again. I could tell that he was happy and he himslf told me that he was very happy. I was happy myself too for him.

But that didn't last long. He drank a little too much and got himself drunk. Perched on the floor along the roadside, thankfully with his friend to accompany him. How lucky he is to have such caring friends. I wonder if i ever get drunk (which i believe wun ever happen coz i wun want to touch alcohol) who will actually come to my aid. I don't think anyone would ever care - well, maybe i would find myself in the police station or the hosptial when i wake up. haha...

I brought him home in cab. Thanks to technology i could pay the fare via mastercard. haha... I got him to balance himself before "carrying" him up to his flat. And he wasn't even to walk in a straight line, let alone climbing up the stairs. After we got up, which took a while, the gate was locked inside. Poor him, no home to go to, but lukcy for him , there were chairs outside and he sat, or rather lied there. He told me to leave him there at that state and go home. But looking at him at the state, i just could get myself to leave him alone. It's not out of pity or what. Just that i could bear to leave him. There were hazards around. With the state that he was in, he could just swayed to the left, right and hit his head and get himself injured. I left him sleeping and my eyes was glued to him. Making sure that he didn't sway too much and when he swayed a little too much, i would just guide him center again. And yes, he reeked of alcohol. haha... I saw day breaking. His door opened and i asked him to go home, but i guess he wass still too tired and there was still too much alcohol in his blood. I stayed by his side for a little until he regained consciousness. He was feeling much better than i could tell. He went home while left him for home as well. I was dead tired. How i wished i could have slept in church which was just a few streets away.

I dragged myself home and after my bath, i poinked into bed until i woke up at 6pm just now. I was feeling so restless and sianz. My dad on earth bought me dinner and i consumed it. I played the piano and i was so touched by the song which i played over and over again - Lord of the Sunshine. I remember singing that song when i was in sunday school when the church was still in bedok, in BBMH (Bethesda Bedok Mission Home).

Well, i guess everything would be back to normal tomorrow. Life would continue. Back to work. Alex will be designing for me my new coporate logo for Film Five Management Limited. I'm so pround of that - a new logo and i would be able to print new namecards for myself again. I'm in the mood now for starting to venture into events again and this time, into malaysia. I could work with Banda Utama Church there and work out an event for their chrismas concert in 2007 and i could setup my own musical with GRACE talent management, in collaboration with Film Five Management. I miss the feeling of putting up my own christmas musical like what i did last year - a 50 minute musical. I hope i would be able to put up one next year - an in-house production.

Wish me luck.

And btw, thanks all for your kind messages, sms, after reading my last post. It's very much appreciated. Just an update, everything's fine now - Thanks to our Almighty God above! We're friends now and of coz i still like him. As to suggetions for me to date him, well i'll just see how it goes. I dunno how it'll turn out. I do not wish to hurt myself any further. I love it now. Just being able to spend time with him being happy.

With His Blessings.

=)

Heartbroken 'N' c0nFuSeD

I'm at home. I felt so much like blogging when i was at blue heaven just now.

By now, you guys should know that i go to blue heaven. And if you read along the lines in my blog, you should know that i have my eyes set on this particular guy and no one else.

I met him yesterday for a movie and today, to go to blue heaven. When we went it all was fine. We went into the jacuzzi and all that. We even went into the steam room and private room together. Nothing happened. No sexual acts between us. Yes, i admit that sometimes i may seem brave, but i'm always timid and i'm one that don't usually take the initiative. One may consider that i'm a little reserved and conservative at times. He set his eyes on this guy in the pool and after leaving the private rooms, he wanted to look for the cute guy. Whatever for, you should know. I was so heart-broken then. Imagine the guy you like, wanting to have "whatever" with someone else.

I waited and waited. I used the computer to distract myself. Nah, not porn but just SGBOY. It had already passed 30 mins (or even more i suppose) and it seemed like an eternity to me. Alas, i saw him. We left blue heaven. I asked him, so how? had fun and he replied that he couldn't find that guy.

Oh well, of course, i felt kinda relieved. But still, i'm feeling hurt. Hurt? Very Hurt? Hurt? Very Hurt? i just dunno. I'm confused. I like him and i really do, but how would i know what his feelings to me are? Are we friends or are we more than that? Have i misinterpreted? Did i take his nice gesture and goodness to me as a wrong signal? Maybe he justs treats all his close friends like that? I'm just confused and it's affecting me. I feel so upset. I just feel like hugging him right now. I feel like crying. Well, yes i am crying, or rather tearing - my eyes are wet.

Why did i have to love him in the first place? Because i'm emotionally weak? Would tonight break our relationship as friends? Would this incident draw us nearer and nearer? I wish it would. But i'm just so afriad of it back-firing. I'm a weakling. I'm just a loser, i guess.

It's his birthday this sunday and i haven't bought him his gift yet. Although i've already thought of what to buy for him. I'm just so so hurt. God, Help me!

This blog is so nice to me. It doesn't bite back. I can just type and type and type and go on... It lets me vent my anger, my hurt, my sorrow and all the shit in me.

Cannot sleep; cry myself to sleep. Just another loser on earth.

Cooked Brains

I nearly got my brain cooked today. Rush off from work to my hair salon to have my hair highlighted.

Took about 1.30mins to get my hair done up. And now i can't wash my hair till tomorrow morning. I'm now lacking my new specs... Not sure if i'll have the time to collect it tomorrow, else i'll have to collect it on saturday.

Most prob i'll post pics of my new look soon.

Cheers and God Bless!

Church & Sleep

Went to church @ FCC yesterday. My first time there. It's just a small hall, situated at Yangze Building. In case you dunno where that is, it's the building where the cinema screening all the R(A) shows, where all the dirty old man are, most prob the only place where they can relieve their sexual tensions as they don't know how to use the computer and have no knowledge of this technology known as the internet. I walked wondering how to get to the church. I walked towards the cinema and i had many eyes (from you-know-who) staring at me. Thank goodness, i saw the roll up banner of the church and i went it. From the glass door, you can could see the stage. It wasn't really a stage as it had no raised platform or whatsoever, but it's just a designated space. There wasn't even a rostrum or a pulpit. The speaker's was just speaking from behind a music stand with a cloth draped over it. From the front, you could actually be fooled by it. But, i kinda like it as it breaks the barrier from the speaker and the audience. Total attendance was only about 60 at most and i could only spot the maximum of 4 women. Coffee was served free flow. It's quite a nice church to be in, as it's a small church whereby everyone can support each other. The service was short - about 1.30 hours and it ended nearly on time. The sermon was short too, unlike some church's i've attended. They're having their FCC Retreat sometime next month. The worship leader, Pastor Gary Chan, had just came back from the Hillsongs Conference the day before, on Saturday and he said that it was very good. I think i should sign up for it also next year or the following.

After the service, i went over to meet up with my mum at her cellgroup over at pasir ris. Was there until it ended and then fellowship. People was asking where i was and why they haven't been seeing me in church for the past few months. I simply told them that would church visiting and that i would still return. BPMC's still my home church. Thereafter, i went back home. I just felt so sleepy and tired. Didn't stay online for long. I slept, as far much as i could remember, at about 8pm, and didn't wake up till this morning. And i was still feeling sleepy - i didn't even want to get out of bed.

I had to drag myself out of bed, as usual. Went to work and had company breakfast. Toast and Tea. Didn't eat lunch as i was fasting. Day 1 of fasting sucessful.

I went to my hairdresser - the 2 young malay girls, no older than 30 years old, both holing degrees from overseas in hairdressing who runs a shop on their own at bedok central - Vibes Hairdressing, to find out more about highlighting my hair and made an appointment.

I'll be doing up my hair tomorrow evening at 7pm. Hope it's be a success and not a disaster. A new look for me. And i'll most prob. be collecting my new specs, the one with the white frame this weekend. A new me. Dominic was suggesting that i dyed my hair red - coz it's Trevvy's color.. haha...

And I've got an idea on what i can get for Alex for his birthday this coming sunday. I shall not reveal it here in case he reads my blog. I just know that my readership is high but i dun track it. Do a google search for mirantz and my blog pops out in the 1st position. I'm so proud of that.

Okie.. time for me to sleep. Goodnight people and God Bless.

Virtual Church

Woke up only at about noon today. Did nothing much. Played piano - chords only. Went online - nothing much either.

Tidied up my table, but it's still very messy and untidy - what's the use? back 2 square one...

Saw alex online and chatted with him. Might go watch Ask The Dust movie preview on wednesday, den go to blue heaven on thursday. It's blue heaven's 7th anniversay this year and they're celebrating it on the 13th and 14th. Buffet on the 13th... And we might go watch superman the movie on friday. Dominic asked me to go watch Thank you for not smoking with him. Maybe i should, but not this week. perhaps the next.

Went to church together with alex. not physically but virutally. cyber church service. the 5pm service at city harvest. Rev Dr Robb Thomson was speaking today. And he said about friends. what we should have in friends, or rather, how one can qualify to be my friend, mainly this 6 points:-

1) My friends must be comitted to long lasting relationships.
2) My friends must have empires in their brains.
3) My friends must qualify to receive my seed.
4) My friends must prize intergrity above relationships.
5) My friends must be willing to confront my enemies.
6) My friends must be sowers. - Your life is determined by your seed

And among that, some of the points that we picked up:-

1) Good is a choice. evil is an influence.
2) Concentrate on the thing that you're doing - a vision at a time. 2 visions = diversion

So who says that i dun attend church huh?? And i'll be going to FCC tomorrow with Nick. Am supposed to go since a few months back but kept pushing it back till now. 10.30am service - they only have 1 service. Invited Alex along but he said that he'll only go with me the next time i visit as he haven't been back to his church for the past 2 weeks. Yup, i understand him soi didn't "force" him.. haha...

Ate dinner which my parents ta-baoed for me.. quite ok.. den rotting until now.. oh ya.. i cleared my emails also, as in work emails. who says i dun work at home huh??? i work 7 days a week okie... (yeah right - making myself sound so hardworking...) haha...

Okie.. enough of crapping. It's time for me to sleep soon or something - but i dun feel sleepy... well, i guess i'll just have to force myself to sleep, else i wun have the energy to priase and worship God tomorrow morning.

And i just realised that the 40 days of prayer has started since 1 july. Oh no.. i'm 8 days late and i'm going to start it from tomorrow. Hope that i'll be able to keep it.. ahha... I would be either going for the total fast (24 hour fast - no food, only water) or the 1 meal fast - dun eat 1 meal a day. I am sure i would definately keep up to that.. haha... Okie - set. 1 meal fast. I wun eat luch everyday unless my boss asks me to accompany him den i'll fast for dinner. haha...

Nitez ppl.

God Bless!

SAFRA Member = Discount Tickets & SGBOY -> Trevvy

I'm a SAFRA member till year 2011. Members of SAFRA will be able to get tickets for movies screening at Golden Village Cinemas on friday evenings, weekends and public holidays at a discounted rate of S$8.00 instead of the usual S$9.50. I qualify for it. Yeah!

SGBOY to be re-branded as Trevvy.

The SGBOY name to be retained as part of its successor Trevvy.com slated for the third-quarter this year.

SGBOY, a household name among gay Singaporeans since 1999, will become a part of its next generation portal, Trevvy.com, as the main highlight of a major re-branding exercise that will see the new portal organizing various events and expanding its contents and user base to other countries in the region.

Trevvy.com is positioned as the successor to SGBOY.COM and will target an older demographic of gay executives aged 25 to 40. This keenly-planned re-branding effort is a response to the changing tastes of existing users as they mature, and to be more inclusive of other segments within the GLBT community. Trevvy.com hopes to capture a larger pool of new users from within the region, as well as infrequent SGBOY users, whose tastes and needs may not be adequately served by the current website.

Plans of a next-generation portal for the 7-year-old SGBOY.COM started almost 2 years ago. During the interim, users have been surveyed and consulted extensively as to the next phase of the website’s development and a possible name change for the reasons mentioned above. While most users polled recognized the need for expansion, many felt nostalgic about the SGBOY name. This feedback accounts for the retention of the SGBOY name as part of Trevvy.com and the assurance of continuity for all long-time SGBOY supporters. Most sections, including SGBOYX and the #sgboy IRC channel, will not see changes to their names. A user survey conducted in May 2006 further revealed that users were primarily concerned about the loading speed and connectivity issues of the website. Such issues will be given top priority with Trevvy.com.

Trevvy.com is a major milestone for SGBOY. The pioneer gay Singapore portal was launched in March 1999 as the Singapore Boy Homepage on GeoCities. It underwent its first makeover in the same year and became SGBOY.COM. Since then, it has been revamped a total of eight times - the latest being SGBOY version 8, also known as ‘SGBOY integr8’ and saw the introduction of the highly popular boyfiles feature.

The slick, cutting-edge visuals of Trevvy.com will be a complete overhaul to the current SGBOY.COM design. Trevvy.com will keep the red-and-white corporate colours of SGBOY, using a darker tone and a hint of minimalism to appeal to users with more refined tastes, while retaining the dynamism and friendliness long associated with SGBOY.

A team of experienced feature writers has been roped in to deliver an informative, trendsetting and fashion-forward editorial direction. Trevvy.com will speak to a new generation of young, intelligent and confident gay executives in the Asia-Pacific region on every aspect of their lives from fashion and current affairs to entertainment, sports, food, technology and relationships.

Web developers of Trevvy.com have been working on the new website for almost eight months. Expect to see all the familiar SGBOY features loaded on steroids and a streamlined user interface, which runs on newer and more powerful servers. An integrated tool would be introduced to improve communication among users. Existing SGBOY members need not re-register to use the new portal and Xcess subscribers will have their subscriptions carried over to the new premium membership known simply as Red.

Trevvy.com will be making its offline presence felt with several events in the pipeline, including a launch party, sports tournament and year-end concert. More details of the new portal and its activities will be announced over the next few weeks.

And i'm unable to connect to mirc from home. stopoid galaxynet....

Goodnight!

Tell The World

There's so many things to tell others about. My life and all that... It may be well, boring but of course, there's so many stories...

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.

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.

It registered some 54% more visitors than its nearest competitor at its peak.

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. And started giving out the condom packs with lubes. And it was already 4am. We left for maxwell for a drink and i met Kiwi, Nelvin, Joe, Joseph and a few more others..

And now, i'm back at home, after my bath, blogging, and turning in to sleep. Will be going to Attica tonight as they're having a show and SGBOY's on the invite list. I'll be bringing a camera along.. hehe... Issac's coming along as he's booking in on monday night. Lucky him. Lucky me also? i dunno...

Won't be going to church later - i need my precious sleep.

Slither's on monday nite and well, Sid's coming with me...

Goodnight and God Bless!

New Blog

I'm finally setting up my new blog which i've been wanting to set up for years...

Finally, it's up on my servers, but i still have tons of work to do. I'll need to configure it and make it nice. haha. it's currently on the default skin still though. Well, i can't do it during office hours ritez unless u wanna get fired. haha...

Cheers!

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!

Tired

Goodnight.

New Phone

I've got myself a new phone. A Nokia 6230i. S$198 with a 2 year M1 plan, but since i've a S$100 voucher, i only paid $98 for it. No, this doesn't mean that i'll be having 3 lines and/or 3 phones. 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...

Labour Day today aka May Day. whaha... Bored with nothing to do at home. The Fujistu technician will be coming tomorrow morning to repair my desktop. Oh, the chime is chiming. You know, those which goes off on the first of every month at noon. haha...

Okie.. ciaoz.
