The forensics marvel has reduced my logic to shambles.

Apparently, this commercial is banned in the States for reasons i don't understand.

She might be a little bit bigger than an average Victoria Secret's model, but i think she's hawt. As to any suggestive underlying message, i reckon there isn't much difference with a typical Victoria Secret's ad.

I think its more important that a woman is confident about herself and looks healthy.

I feel a big sneeze welling up, which is always a sure sign that I’m not carrying a handkerchief.

"T-Shirt"

Hey

[Verse 1]
Try'na decide Try'na decide
If I really wanna go out tonight
I never used to go out without ya
Not sure I remember how ta

Gonna be late Gonna be late
But, all my girls don't have to wait 'cause
I dont know if I like my outfit
I tried everything in my closet

[Chorus]
Nothin feels right when Im not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Takin them off 'cause I feel a fool
Try'na dress up when Im missin you

Imma step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with something Hanes
In bed I lay

With nothing but your T-shirt on
With nothing but your T-shirt on

Hey

[Verse 2]
Gotta be strong gotta be strong but Im
Really hurtin now that you're gone
I thought maybe I'd do some shopping
But I couldnt get past the door and

Now I dont know, now I dont know If Im
Ever really gonna let you go
And I couldnt even leave my apartment
I'm stripped down, torn up about it

[Chorus]
Nothin feels right when Im not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Takin them off 'cause I feel a fool
Try'na dress up when Im missin' you

Im'a step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with something Hanes
In bed I lay

With nothing but your T-shirt on
With nothing but your T-shirt on
With nothing but your T-shirt on
('cause I missed you, 'cause I missed you)
With nothing but your T-shirt on
(said I missed you ... baby)

[Repeated On Verse 2]
Now I dont know, now I dont know If Im
Ever really gonna let you go
And I couldnt even leave my apartment I'm stripped down, torn up about it

[Half Chorus]
Nothing feels right when Im not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Taking them off 'cause I feel a fool
Try'na dress up when Im missin you

Imma step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with something Hanes
In bed I lay

[Chorus]
Nothing feels right when Im not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Taking them off 'cause I feel a fool
Try'na dress up when Im missin you

Imma step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with something Hanes
In bed I lay

With nothing but your T-shirt on
With nothing but your T-shirt on
With nothing but your T-shirt on
With nothing but your T-shirt on

[Song Ending]
nothing but your T-shirt on
ooh let me tell you no
nothing but your T-shirt on
ooh let me tell you no
nothing but your T-shirt on

The world is a complicated place. Whenever it seems that way, I’ll take a nap in a tree and wait for dinner.

“The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Thus all progress depends on the unreasonable man.”
- “Heroes Die” by Matthew Woodring Stover

Change is inevitable. It will happen, one way or another, whether we like it or not.

But as we grow older, we start to dislike change. It is because the familiar things start to disappear: taking away our childhood, our memories and our past.

But no matter how much we dislike it, we must struggle against our instincts and learn to embrace change.

Only by changing, can we improve ourselves and our outlook in life.

Because if we don't change, we will still be living in caves wearing bear skins and communicate by grunting.

“The mind that will not admit it has something more to learn tomorrow is in danger of stagnating”

I’m not a vegetarian. I’m a dessertarian.

I used to think maybe you loved me, now baby I'm sure

You don’t think your dad will get mad about us digging up the driveway? Oh, you know Dad. He’ll get mad no matter WHERE we dig.

Ryan Bingham: You know why kids love athletes?

Bob: Because they screw lingerie models?

Ryan Bingham: No, that's why we love athletes. Kids love them because they follow their dreams.

I followed my dream, and have never looked back nor regretted it.

I hope one day my kids will follow their dreams.

Because that is what life is all about: chasing your dream.

I think most hiccup cures were really invented for the amusement of the patient’s friends.

Apparently, after the CA, there is a SA: Semestral Assessment. O.o

I have tried valiantly to appeal and dispute the need for another assessment, that the marks for CA is sufficient.

She is still considering whether to set the paper, so there is still some hope left.

Being a parent is wanting to hug and strangle your kid at the same time.

So far, it has been a very happy one month for the both of us. And of course, being a teacher that she is, she just has to grade me.

I didn't even know i was under scrutiny and examination as a boyfriend. O.o

But joy of joys, she has awarded me a grand total of 80. Yep. Eighty. Eight-Zero.

Thats a solid 'A'! That's the highest i ever got for my Continual Assessment (CA)! ^^

And of course, being the ever eager and diligent student, i asked where my mistakes were. The explanation is as follows:

As per some tests and examinations, i was awarded 100 marks. Each demerit and/or mistake i make will be deducted accordingly.

For making her finish her food = -5 marks

Therefore,

Current boyfriend score = 100 - 5 = 95 marks

For attempting to tickle her but poke her instead = -5 marks

Hence,

Current boyfriend score = 95 - 5 = 90 marks

For teasing her, drawing similarities between her and a baby
= -5 marks

So,

Current boyfriend score = 90 - 5 = 85 marks

Finally,

For being late = -5 marks

Thus,

Current boyfriend score = 85 - 5 = 80 marks

I was prepared to launch a passionate and reasonable defense of my actions, but she waved them aside. She did not and does not entertain appeals. Nor did she allow me to retake my paper. -_-

Apparently, the examiner has the final say and reserves the right to maintain the marks at her discretion and without obligations.

How fair is that?!

The turbo is pooped. That’s ok. Gravity just kicked in.

Mothers are the necessity of invention.

Ever fancied an All Terrain Tracked Carrier (ATTC) of your own?

Ever get jealous of the army's Bronco?

The Russians have the answer. O.O

I wish my bathtub had an agitator.

So far, it has been a whirlwind of romance, love and bear hugs.

Somehow, we are really on fast-track program. But most importantly: we are happy.

Don't stop believing. Hold onto that feeling.

Your schedule calls for smaller time increments than this clock can measure.

My philosophy has always been, "When in doubt, go for it."

Five or ten years down the road, i don't want to look back and think to myself: Why didn't i try? Why didn't i ask?

Well, i asked.

And she agreed.

So far, things are looking good. I really do hope we make this work and last.

If you’re looking for fossilized remains, you should dig through your room.

So little time.

So much to do.

So much work.

So little brain cells.

Recently, i think my brain explodes on a daily basis.

Of course, it doesn't help when my senior leaves the company.

Argh.

Live and don’t learn, that us.

"Life After You"

Ten miles from town and I just broke down
Spittin' out smoke on the side of the road
I'm out here alone just tryin' to get home
To tell you I was wrong but you already know
Believe me I won't stop at nothin'
To see you so I've started runnin'

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughing with you
I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after
After the life we've been through
'Cause I know there's no life after you

Last time we talked, the night that I walked
Burns like an iron in the back of my mind
I must've been high to say you and I
Weren't meant to be and just wasting my time
Oh, why did I ever doubt you?
You know I would die here without you

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughing with you
I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after
After the life we've been through
'Cause I know there's no life after you

You and I, right or wrong, there's no other one
After this time I spent alone
It's hard to believe that a man with sight could be so blind
Thinkin' 'bout the better times, must've been outta my mind
So I'm runnin' back to tell you

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
Without you God knows what I'd do

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughing with you
I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is love ever after
After the life we've been through
'Cause I know there's no life after you

When I grow up, I want 2 b an inventor. First I’ll invent a time machine. Then I’ll come back 2 yesterday & take myself 2 tomolo & skip this dumb work

Since my complaints about being an engineer and the lack of true engineers, I have recently read that there is a movement to encourage students to take up engineering.

Our company has duly obliged to show them the "wonders" of engineering, and i was roped in (read: arrow >.<) to help show students our vehicle.

Unfortunately, while showing the students around, i didn't realise that my coveralls had a hole in it.

So in short, i "showed" everyone the color of my underwear that day. Which was gray. Which stood out against our company's dark blue coveralls.

Mission Failed. -__-

"Over You"

Now that it's all said and done,
I can't believe you were the one
To build me up and tear me down,
Like an old abandoned house.
What you said when you left
Just left me cold and out of breath.
I fell too far, was in way too deep.
Guess I let you get the best of me.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.

You took a hammer to these walls,
Dragged the memories down the hall,
Packed your bags and walked away.
There was nothing I could say.
And when you slammed the front door shut,
A lot of others opened up,
So did my eyes so I could see
That you never were the best for me.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
Well I'm putting my heart back together,
'Cause I got over you.
Well I got over you.
I got over you.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.

Great. The snow cushioned the blow to my spine, so I can die of pneumonia.

When you automatically know what to do when you sprain your leg, it can only mean two things:

(a) You are in the medical field, which means you are either a doctor, a nurse or a physiotherapist.

OR

(b) You have sprained your leg so many times that you already know what to do.

And since i'm an engineer, it must be option b.

Sigh...

I’ve never liked crayons very much. They just don’t have any flavour at all.

"But I knew that anyone who cared to look would know that it was cheap. The whole thing was a commentary on who i was, what i was about, and what i was willing to accept in life.

That's what fashion does: It is designed to make a statement about a person.

It's sometimes argued that fashion is all about creation and construct. Not only are the clothes and shoes we wear, and the bags we carry, constructs of someone else's imagination, they are also the realisation of an idea, an inspiration brought to life by someone who has the know-how and skill to do so.

We in turn use these constructs to create an impression of ourselves, by assembling the bits and pieces together.

It's an amalgamation of various ideas, coming together into a whole that accurately (the key word is accurately) expresses on the outside what is within. That, in itself, is an act of creation and construction as well."
- "My motto: Fashionably practical" by Jill Alphonso in mypaper 12 January 2010

People pay more attention to you when they think you’re up to something.

Besides the fact that they "hijacked" my Facebook status, they also used it to hold illegal meetings to gossip about other people. -__-

But i also learnt that i have lots of friends who are looking out for me and are concerned about me. :)

JC has reluctantly resigned himself to his fate where his friends try and matchmake him. Lets hope the girls won't commit suicide or run away after seeing my face. :p

Yesterday at 8:37pm · JX

Yesterday at 8:52pm · Mini-Terrorist One
You wldnt let me and you allowed others??!! HRMPH!

Yesterday at 9:07pm · Me
JX: My face is the big fugly thing sticking out of my neck. Did you not notice? xD
Mini-Terrorist One: Lol... Like i said, i'm resigned to my fate. You can introduce if you want, but don't blame if your colleagues avoid you after finding out that you're keeping company with a fugly male. xD

Eh, Jason, u r fine lah. Ur not going to date Ms Universe so u don't have to look like prince charming.

Yesterday at 10:32pm · SN
Confidence. Half the battle is won. Choose Jason.

Yesterday at 10:36pm · Me
GN: True, i'm not going to date Miss Universe. But whatever the case, first impression still counts doesn't it? :p
SN: Choose? Whats there to choose?! xD

All us guys need is a fat wallet. Just look at mine. o wait...

Yesterday at 11:12pm · JX
If you think you are ugly, look at Dennis. Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. Cindy got married for 10 years liaoz. AN is still not married. Dennis got married. YH, DW and KJ still single/not married.
First impression counts, so does every impression. Just do your best and relax. If someone only judge your based on impression, then she is not worth it anyway so why be so hard on yourself ;)

Yesterday at 11:13pm · JX

That’s me (oof), the human slinky.

""But you had not. You had just... stopped. In some ways. Oh, you were older and wiser, i suppose. But you had not made any move on your own to reach out to life again. But for your wolf, i think it would have been even worse."

"As it was, you were living like a mouse in a wall, off the crumbs of affection that Starling tossed to you. As thick-skinned as she is, even she could see it. She gave you Hap and you took him in. But if she had not brought him to your doorstep and dumped him there, would you have sought out anyone to share your life?"

He leaned closer to me and said, "Even after you came back to Buckkeep and your old world, you held yourself apart from it. No matter what i did or offered. Myblack. you couldn't even connect to a horse."

Well, it’s a new year. And I’d say the first 10 hours haven’t been up to snuff.

Incoming Twenty-Ten (2010): Yo. *strides in* How are things, man?

Outgoing Twenty-Oh-Nine (2009): Pretty all right, actually. There hasn't been any major catastrophe, nor emotional distress.

Incoming Twenty-Ten (2010): Really? Why don't you give me a summary of what you've done? Seems like our Key Performance Index (KPI) has risen, so expectations are higher this time round.

Outgoing Twenty-Oh-Nine (2009): *groan* Tell me about it. The same thing happened for my predecessor, 2008. He had so many things happening, that now it makes me look bad. *grumbles* He had a change of job, a short-term relationship and a brilliant trip to Taiwan with good friends. How on earth was i suppose to emulate that? *wails* I don't have a single relationship on my CV!

Incoming Twenty-Ten (2010): *pats back* There there. Things aren't so bad. I'm sure you have had some good things too.

Outgoing Twenty-Oh-Nine (2009): *sniff* Well. Things certainly have improved for the job. He has felt slightly more at home and is doing something he thoroughly enjoys. There is so much to learn and the knowledge expansion is one of the reasons why he enjoys it.

Incoming Twenty-Ten (2010): *soothes* There. You see? That's a good thing, isn't it? Are there any more?

Outgoing Twenty-Oh-Nine (2009): But... But... *wails* There wasn't a relationship! He did meet someone, but it didn't work out. *sobz* I was so hoping that it will work out, so i can add it to my CV! I mean, a relationship is a big thing on any CV, and i thought it will be my chance to show what i can do!

Incoming Twenty-Ten (2010): *taken aback* Erm... I'm sure it was for the best. Perhaps they are not meant to be together. They are still friends, right? That still counts for something, doesn't it?

Outgoing Twenty-Oh-Nine (2009): *sniff* I guess so... *sniff*

Incoming Twenty-Ten (2010): *pats hand* Are there any more good things that happened?

Outgoing Twenty-Oh-Nine (2009): Well. He did take up scuba diving and managed to get his Open Water and Advanced Open Water certification. *begins to cheer up* He really does like scuba diving and enjoyed the trips abroad.

Incoming Twenty-Ten (2010): That's good, that's good. Speaking of going abroad, were there any holidays?

Outgoing Twenty-Oh-Nine (2009): Oh yes. He went to Hokkaido and had a pretty good time there. There were one or two places which he didn't really like. I mean, how entertaining can a sake factory or whiskey distillery be? *getting excited* Oh oh. And he saw snow for the first time and tried snow boarding for the first time too!

Incoming Twenty-Ten (2010): *getting worried about KPI* Wow. That's pretty awesome. Looks like i'll have my work cut out for me, on trying to emulate you.

Outgoing Twenty-Oh-Nine (2009): Oh, don't worry. Seems like he has quite a number of friends wanting to go overseas. Plus, there seems to be a good long diving trip in the planning too. It promises to be a lot better than the ones i've had.

Incoming Twenty-Ten (2010): Really? That sounds pretty good. Lets hope all those talking and planning will turn into something concrete then.

Outgoing Twenty-Oh-Nine (2009): I'm sure it will. Plus, his friends seems hell-bent on trying to get him a partner. *sniggers*

Incoming Twenty-Ten (2010): Really? His friends are really concerned about him, aye? I'm sure he appreciates their effort on his behalf. *rolls eyes*

Outgoing Twenty-Oh-Nine (2009): *clock chimes* Ah. The stroke of midnight! Here you go then. *passes the baton* Good luck! *fades out of view*

Incoming Twenty-Ten (2010): Thanks! *it's left pondering what will befall upon it*
