What's a guy to do?

When I was young I knew everything
and she a punk who rarely ever took advice
now i'm guilt stricken, sobbing with my head on the floor
stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice

I can't be held responsible
cause she was touching her face
I won't be held responsible
she fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
for the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins
we were merely freshmen

My best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
his girl took a week's worth of valium and slept
now he's guilt stricken sobbing with his head on the floor
thinks about her now and how he never really wept he says

We've tried to wash our hands of all of this
we never talk of our lacking relationships
and how we're guilt stricken sobbing with our heads on the floor
we fell through the ice when we tried not to slip, we'd say

Lunchtime with Jon…
Been meeting up with jon recently…
Lots of revelations and truths…
But we usually have that all the time anyway…
Sliding tackles and nightlife…
Moving along and moving on…
Doing what’s morally right and letting it be…
Seize the day my friend…

Priceless
Caught this show recently in the cinemas… basically the story’s abt this girl who mistakes a waiter for being a millionaire and decides to reel if him… after sleeping with him and all… she discovers his lowly status and beats a hasty retreat… but the guy’s love-struck and decides to woo her by taking her to expensive places and buying her branded stuff but she’s having none of it… why? coz he’s not rich… he’s juz a waiter… soon he finds himself running out of money… and in these type of situations… wat would u do? Why… u go find urself a loaded widow then which is wat he does! Well… it was more like the widow found him but u get my drift… anyway… soon he becomes the male version of that girl and comedy ensues when they keep on bumping into each other…
To be honest… I rather enjoyed the show… loved the charisma of the characters and their chemistry… and the show was hilarious… albeit probably in a dark way… but still… a good show nonetheless…
You can resist looks, not charm…

If we went to a Halloween party dressed as Batman and Robin, I'd go as Robin. That's how much you mean to me... – a line from Blades of Glory starring Will Ferrell and Jon Heder… another hilarious show… u can’t go wrong with any show starring Will Ferrell…
Or Ben Stiller… they're juz hilarious gifted pple...

Motherly love
Read an article from the New Paper a couple of weeks back abt how this woman tried to talk her son OUT of robbing a bank in Germany but he was having none of it… he was determined to rob the bank and no amount of persuasion from his mum would talk him out of it… so wat was a mum to do? Well… she drove him to the bank then… so tat she could keep an eye on him and make sure he was alrite… awww… the love…

The love for coffee art
I’m supposedly going back to my old job as a barrista… Manager agreed to hire me but nothing’s been signed yet… oh well… I always enjoyed making coffee at my old workplace coz we made “heart-shaped” coffees… not many places in Singapore actually do these so yeah… I feel pretty honoured to have learned this… but it’s been 3 yrs already since I last touched a milk canister… so hopefully it’s like riding a bike and I not forget it… Wish me luck…

A takeover in progress
A search for a new manager
A player arrested
A team devastated
Uncertain times at City
Despite all the loom and gloom
A new kit is launched

The meaning of it all is lost on this fan
*nobody understands*

The Nicest bloke
You’ll ever meet
A little too innocent
If u ask me
A smile on his face
For all plain to see
Getting on with work
Hardworking as can be

Today he got the “hairdryer” treatment from his boss
For all to hear and painfully see
You’ve killed his spirit
And broken his will
Now honestly tell me
Does he really deserve this travesty?

Cars depreciate, but an education appreciates
My credibility is non-existent…

Why don’t you like me?

A: Imagine the most beautiful place on earth
B: Okay I’ve got it
A: Now imagine you can never go there because you work in a box

A prayer...

May you rest in the arms of the Lord who formed you from the dust of the earth.
May holy Mary, the angels and all the saints welcome you now that you have gone forth from this life.
May Christ who was crucified for you, bring you freedom and peace.
May Christ who died for you admit you into his garden of paradise.
May Christ, the true Shepherd, embrace you as one of his flock.
May he forgive all your sins, and set you among those he has chosen.
May you see your Redeemer face to face, and enjoy the vision of God forever.

Have comfort in the fact
She’s in a better place now

My mum and dad had a function at DXO the other day… wahhh… rather hip sia my folks… haha anyway… point is they came back with a goodie bag and inside was an issue of LIME mag… now LIME mags are the kind of magazines I wouldn’t normally read as I perceive myself to have grown out of it but juz decided to take a flip thru it nonetheless as it was FREE and sitting rite in front of me… basically the flipping stopped at this FHM Girl Next Door write-up… the headline was “Big Boobs = Bimbo?” and the writer asked several finalists of FHM’s Girl Next Door Challenge some questions to prove whether they are or aren’t bimbos… Well… questions went like this…
1. Spell “Voluptuous”
2. What’s the capital of Australia?
3. Which Hollywood celeb recently shaved her head?
4. Name the Prime Minister of Malaysia.

The results are in…
They’re Bimbos…
Fortunately, my good friend Gerald got 3 out of 4 rite…
So u’re off the bimbo radar… FOR NOW ;>

I have a colleague in the office… let’s juz call him “special friend”… many a times… he’ll press us when we look troubled… even though we really dun wanna talk abt it… he’ll keep on asking to a near point of irritation… why does he wanna know we ask? Troubles must share… dun bottle up… he can help… trust me he says… keep it to yourself we say… I promise he says… soon u’ll find out… u’re not the only one to be screwed over… it broke my heart to realise he’s someone I juz could not trust anymore… things we tell him in confidence… he spills it out… intentionally or accidentally… for your sake… pls let it be the latter…
I’m never trusting u again…

Knives still stuck in my back…
Lured by the bright lights…
At my loneliest hour…

An enthralling match caught by Gerald, Carl, Ivan n moi…

Was at Ang Mo Kio Hub the other day and I came across a very strange ATM machine… Wanted to withdraw 30 bucks and so I put my card in… pressed the other withdrawal button like I always do… and to my surprise… it tells me tat the minimum withdrawal’s 200 bucks! Wat the… “this must be one of those niche atms” I thought and so I moved to the one beside it… alamak! IT’S THE SAME! I’ve been punk’d! Why did they even put up these ATMs? I seriously don’t understand why…

Random Thoughts
Whatever happened to Michelle Branch? I liked her music…
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
Was somebody who cares
