Torino Redux and Sheila/Ci/Yangz powerpack

7h ago:the other gang were at fuji ice palace just now,going brrrrrrr....yes we skated,much against my mum,who was convinced that skating would cost an arm and a leg,literally(bruises and fractures included)...it's so slippery some guys swore they dun wanna come back here ever again.lol


26h ago:to shit that off,yesterday was 'drama nite'...oh wait,actually Interhouse Drama.yay Puma won,with a turbo pump ensemble of Sheila and Ci and Yangz(if you bring the house captain in,compared with the threadbare squads of the rest,you know what's in store)funny sial


Thu:never enjoyed PE before.Alex sucks.and there's little diff between HOD and Andy


next:


more concert splurging.we dun mean any one.


8/3:ACJC band.used to be in late mar,but they kinda shifted the date,to my delight
April:teowww stringhold


news from Joce W345,Rachel and others about the next few concert dates coming up

star struck

I didn't expect to be so lucky seeing SO MANY celebrities during the past 2 days...out of the imagination lah.even the most hardened groupies don't usually see their idols,but then I'm so lucky.

AC Fun-O-Rama(Sat Afternoon):Kelvin tipped me off with regards to AC alumnus Adrian Pang(first artiste to cross over from the short lived MediaWorks).He's quite a hunk actually,and very nice
Raffles City(Sat Evening):saw Edmund Chen and Xiang Yun.got their autographs as well.miracle that I still recognise them even if I don't watch their shows often.
Sun-day:literally a sun-ny day where I saw Sun Ho at CHC.her CD's coming up in Aug 06.(just for laughs,here's what Wini says about her)

Ya ha but I dun really like her.She's from AHS what(I tricked her to saying that).She came for some school concert last year(back in 2004)

Matt's scoop:Some minister's daughter is in ACJC.Drama Club VP.AC ppl call her N** B***.If you don't want to get into trouble,DO NOT TELL ANYBODY OUTSIDE ACJC!This is insider info and I put my life at stake to give that to you

AC Funorama

this will be the last time I splurge obscene amounts on a school fun fair.


2003:CCHSM funfair.by some means and crap I managed to acquire $110 of tickets.slacked off the whole day as I happily enjoyed


2006:Carmen,Val's classmate,Teowww gang member and Willy's fren got freebies at my expense.and if spending quite a bomb to dunk the principal with a ball isn't bad,I had to miss out on kenny rogers and pasta fresca because they are so ex!but somehow I could find a surprisingly large amount of AJCians and my ACJC frens,and it's official:Jes and Xiang Long are broke.ultimate surprise:the whole gang of ACJC ppl who went to my sch to sell tickets still recognised their major bankroller.


strategy to survive in a funfair w/o getting broke too early


1.survey the stalls.check out quality stuff,or cheap enough and nice.look for frens as well.they might give you a few perks if not discounts


2.don't try to gorge all the food from all the stalls.not even if you're famous.that means choose carefully what you should eat.that ensures you don't have to rush to the toilet after you return home when you eat conflicting stuff.your doc or sinseh or even your dad will merely shake his head and say it's your own doing


3.when satiated,try out the games.DO NOT be tempted to go to any haunted houses at the moment.apart from puking out all your stuff,there're LONG winding queues.you might have to wait for hours before you finally get inside,particularly those without apparent queues.they have the longest waiting lists of them all


4.apparently it's very hard to win the top prize of each game,so don't try all the games.only try those you've maximum confidence in.note that game masters have tricks up their sleeve that will ensure they don't pay out max


5.If you're running low on money,don't recklessly hedge bets on the dunking stations.top brass of a school would ask for artificially high ransoms before they get dunked.the host will try to charge crazy charges for each ball,so only add bets if you're rich(like the teachers do),and be prepared to be watched by a large crowd


6.when tired,go sit on the terraces,talk to your friends and watch the rest struggling to spend their money or actually splurge their money


7.shopping can be quite ex.ACJC has a grocery store among other things.ex enough to skip.if they have other memorabilla,only buy if you really love the school,and you either belong to the school or you have some regrets after JAE.if you're ambivalent,i recommend you skip that too


8.leave the haunted houses last.you get freaked out more...especially the last shift.they would come out in full force.and don't forget to scream!AHHHHHHH........


9.you can't survive with just one ticket(honestly there're trumped up prices).neither do I recommend splurging like teachers do and buy dozens of tickets(unless your dad's an industrialist or big donor).$100 would work well ideally,but you might get away with at least $30


10.fun fairs are energy sapping,even for consumers.drink LOTS of water,and be careful of your wallets because you will soon find that you will be tempted to buy some more coupons when you bust your credit limit


Craig Lockhart Hospital(LT1):Samz was there.she doesn't really recognise me nowadays,but when she does,at least it's long lost frens now.remained stoic throughout even when the 8 at the back got freaked out by 'mental patients'.the tour guide was one talkative dude,and you think that's scary?the ghosts look morre like morons freaky rating:3* out of 5*


?(LT2):Wini went there and I know nothing freaky rating:no comment


Drama(LT6):apparently some people said it's the most scariest,and even a few had paid againjust to freak out twice.quite good but I don't know.it's chinese opera,so it won't be freaky to sap sch ppl


Rose Mansion/Pavillion(LT5):last stop before I left.since a gang of girls and just a few guys were the last people to go in,they get freaky.you get lulled into complacency by a few courtesans,then it just gets more and more freaky,all with a chinese twist,altar included(added a few orchids just in case.a wrong move as I got freaked out later).they can be quite full frontal,so there's little you can do if (horrors of horrors) you get freaked out.and it seems like the tour guide there looks very amused while the rest all get freaked out to various degrees.AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! freaky rating:4* out of 5*


So returning from there,AJC can learn a few lessons on how to raise money.we don't mean the large wads of notes AC handles all the time.you need many stalls(each class are supposed to have one food and one games stall each),and slick promoting...aaaahhhhhh I'm bankrupt!

Valentine's blues

this is Valentine's.being a guy grants you many privileges.this is what happens in the Middle East.but being a guy also means you've to be responsible for a lot of stuff to your girl/woman.working for your keep and your family's survival is one.then serving in NS too.the Goverment has raised penalties and stiffened rules where dodging draft is concerned,and have placed better family laws that encourages happier and bigger families.then there's Valentine's/aka Friendship Day to us students.If u're a thrifty guy,this is the only time you part with your cherished money.if you're as bigshot as the Saudi King,or Donald or as rich as Roman or Mikhail,it's time for you to lavish gifts on your girl and/or friends.yeah but Valetnine's a big and expensive business,particularly for consumers =(


ok the strafing part happens now


weeks in advance:3505,Val and 2 ppl who i shall not reveal gets arrowed for dedications and roses and everything nice.Val kinda knew about that,but successfully kept that from the two unknowns


Day before tomorrow:mad rush.if getting the guys at choir to change slot is not enough,going on a whirlwind trip to shop gets much worse if you don't want to buy cliched stuff.opted for chocolates at Sins Centrepoint since Godiva was horribly ex and Neuhaus' prices are just as scary as their Belgian cousins.

the 2 boxes had Grand Cru truffles,dark ganaches and something called pick-up-line that has gold lines drawn on the top and XO Cognac inside(knockout punch).Wenz had Baileys(apparently that was milk chocolate with a ganache spiked with Baileys Irish Cream inside) and Leens had a heart shape(still booze.wine n peach next).yeah you sinner,teetotaller's nightmare,thinking they won't get drunk(Wenz would,cuz she'd be sinning by eating in class,boozing before 18 and have a sticky mouth)...hahaha that's an evil plot =) and apparently after 5-7 h they have to be kept in the fridge for up to 3 months.lucky it was just a nip back home and hehe sis,envious?


and speaking of which,AC ppl are damn enterprising.they actually bothered to go to AJC to sell their fun-o-rama tix(btw I'm off for Sat).if blowing $20 on Wenz and Leens' truffles aren't enough,$30 for the ACJC performance theatre looks like a big donation outside ACJC's students.in fact they were begging me to buy ticket no 3,which set me back by a deal.so guilty,I decided to give Malcolm Teowww a ticket.Navin teowww and JJ teowww all also want.then share lor.just a thing.many aj ppl think ac is a money launderer or money eater.yeah Matt I'd love some extras


V DAY(or D Day for guys):apparently waiting for Wenz to be inside the bus didn't work.that's better cuz i tend to show the horse leg(if you play chinese chess you know what that means).then the pretty nerd had her hair tied,just like Leens.Poor Wene was like,searching high and low for the two people who were meant to get roses,so that was first blood.but i kinda bungled the delivery part where those Sins are concerned.Wenz was first,and it went straight on her hands.Leens then got the one with the gold ribbon,but not before the class locked the delivery man outside and Wenz could read my mind.then I was forced to tell Leens that there were chocolates for her inside.if you think strafing the airfield isn't bad enough,the choir later showed up and serenaded them.just to add insult to injury,they apparently used some probability formula to say that I was the only one capable of such a thing...ooh romantic.


1015.the class civics.i didn't expect someone from mdm ng's form class last time(32/04) to show up.and to put it that way,this was a last minute change.that impromptu speech took quite long and as always alot of noise.but the song was sheer magic.that was the only time where there's good support,cuz i doubt the rest would have anyone other than their classmates showing up


oh yeah Wini is up next for a surprise(this means more potent truffles.too bad prestat was out as it's $25).she says she will meet me at 5plus or 6 last night,but then she said she go suntec then orchard at 5 plus and then these are the people I met from Citylink to Orchard during the 3h odyssey that elapsed:


Markus and zhitong's classmate.Melvin and Lindsey.cass,junyi and jee.gary the sexy beast and raine,someone from 3205.elson and 2 ajc ppl who i dunno.another ajc guy who said teowww(obviously one of my teowww brothers taught him that).von.meryl.the farmer.zhihui(ask gary)


Wini's chocolate selections:blew my cash at Godiva's.2 comtesses(dark choc),2 azteques(dark ganache),raisin fine champagne n cerise kirsch n truffe rhum(quite disappointed there were no cognac or dark truffles =( and Sins only had the liquid champagne centre one,none of the ones I bought for Leens or Wenz.and there's a long queue at Royce and nothing at Neuhaus =().perfectly weighs 99g,rounded to 100.$20.50.boozed for 5 of them.and quite ex


waited for her in the starry night and noise of cine for 55mins.Princess Wini struts in with 4 bodyguards and waited for her to show up.of her bodyguards i didn't expect anyone to know me offhand,so they just waited for her while i approached her without my usual swagger.The last thing I'd expect was one of her bodyguards to actually remember how I'd looked like and actually waved at me.met up with her again and becuz there's a long queue for neoprints,the neoprint offer didn't work,or i'll produce living evidence that she's more cuter and elegant than a 6 year old.put it simply,she was thankful for the presents,but she just kinda felt bad about me buying stuff for her.lol any significance would have been debatable.


but amid all the celebratory presents and back patting,poor Pak Tao seems to be missing out on all the fun.and yeah this is a damn crap story happening right outside your friend circle.If all the J2s are sharing presents,or at least trying their best to keep up on their spendings on presents,here's this kinda unfortunate guy who has no friends in J2,and no friends in J1(cuz he retain).If you see his forlorn figure in the canteen,eating all by himself,keeping to himself and looking as if he's got no one to talk to,and maybe pacing up and down the canteen(I sometimes do,but more like a stockbroker at NYSE),you know who i mean.


In fact no one knows his name,save for his ex 2X/05 class.to be sure of that,little is known about this lonely loser,except he didn't even take his promo after missing out on lesson for (you believe it) half a year.no body knows why he's absent for,nobody except himself knows his CCA,and absolutely no one has ever heard of him.so bad,even his class disowned him like a rag-doll.in fact,for all the troubles,some retainees do gravitate back to their old classes or cliques time and again.but this loner have no one to speak to,let alone mug with.slowly I got to know him and I really think he needs to see a psychiatrist(cuz i think he's suffering from depression,if not Aspergers or autism)


Q:you've got any friends in your former class or J2?
A:Jasper(his classmate.I asked him and he apparently told me dun bother with him)
Q:then do you've got any friends in J1?
A:yes
Q:do you talk to them often or it's just a few sentences(I mean,being cold to them)
A:(the latter)
Q:what do you come to AJC for?
A:study
Q:maybe you should consider poly
A:no
Q:you've got any other aims?
A:no


that's like...what the hell...this loser has no life.he has nothing to live for and nothing to cling on.his life revolves around only study and nothing else.even somebody that autistic or with asperger's might try to make himself known and heard,whether through his acts,or through what he says,however educated or retarded it may seem.even such a man could find a few good men to be with,even if he gets misunderstood(or even shut out,if things do get nasty).for which,whatever he does,it had any impact on the world,even if people do forget what he did.he can get laughed at or even scolded at,but once they break past his misunderstandings,they do appreciate him for what he done,even if it were just tacit or even reluctant approval.but that's way better than living a wretched existence,unknown,unheard,and with nothing to contribute.


that told,for a while,spare a bit of love this valentine's for the needy,and the world will be a better place

CNY

ok guys it's been a long long time since I've blogged,and whatever the case,HAPPY NEW YEAR!

hitched a screen with 22's kids and I not Stupid too...yeah quite a touching movie but seems a bit cliched enough.i wanna watch fearless,the jet li film which my bro watched(somewhat illegally cuz he juz had his 15th bdae and they just looked at his year on his ic and let him watch an nc16 movie).i dun believe that munich and jarhead all got m18 and lee ang's brokeback mountain at r21.it kinda seems that all the crap stuff are cut and rated pg just for the sake of cash

on the big friday it's damned lessons.yeah who's crazy idea was that?whatever there were some really luckless chaps who had no breaks till 1015 and beyond.the concert was okay la,with the absence of the choir.if you think they're bad enough,CJC has it worse cuz they had lessons right until their normal timetables...ahhhhh.so that meant going back to cchsm is never an option cuz it was deserted except for me,val,cas and chris who was sleeping in the wushu room(and the long lost FG brothers).kinda reminded me of 28 days later the movie..aahhhh!

lol cny dinner yesterday wasn't quite a blast,but being fed on 3 types of booze and still standing means i'm quite better off.old grans' rice wine was so sweet and luscious i kinda shot down the chicken infused drink and then the champagne.i've to say that Laurent Perrier does make good champagne,but dun tell this to the cops cuz almost everyone in my family shared the magnum bottle,from the patriarch of the family,to the youngest kid(he's pri 3 btw).just about the only one who didn't drink was grandma,maybe becuz she's totally addicted to her homemade rice wine n prefers that to the premium french stuff.lucky my dad was sober enough to drive(but dun try this stunt next time.i truthfully dun wanna get caught by the expressway cops)

tasting notes
colour:golden
smell:a bit like hay,intense bouquet of chardonnay predominance
taste:apart from the initial prickiness,it's quite smooth,though not so fruity as expected
finish:long and continues for 15 mins.good considering that's my 1st sip of champagne in my life
quantity drunk:222ml.that's counted as illegal drinking

menu:
oysters in meat wrap:less peppery than last time.it's drenched in sauce,so truthfully i dun wanna waste champagne.
roast pork:crisp skin,yum!time for a riesling
steamed chicken:my bro would have fumed if he saw me taking both drumsticks and a wing.but it's juicy enough for an australian chardonnay
chicken in rice wine:the alcohol's good enough,so i shot them down.best of all all the alcohol's evaporated
steamed prawns:juicy and great,so a mosel works here
fat pork in soy:more riesling...but then it's a bit tough now cuz the sauce's so strong
abacus seeds:I'm a hakka,so they love to make this gummy and springy pieces.somehow i struggle to think of a wine to go with

conclusion:i'll get a German riesling from Bacchus next reunion dinner

oh yeah that kinda brings me to the end of my post.watchin die hard later just before i have my vegetarian breakfast,so off we go!

think i'm gettin kinda quite mean this time.if I dun rip the j1s off sellin them the ACJC funorama tix(their funfair on 18th feb),i think i'll get them to hang around more with non-ogl j2s(i mean,the rest of the supposed muggers).looks like ACJC has an excess of funorama tix to sell,judging from what my frens there had to say,so I'm doing an ad on behalf for them.note that this action may not go down well in AJC

crash course for noobs(yay I'm a leet!)

who? ACJC Funorama
what? funfair lor.got games,normal funfair stuff
when? 18 feb (a sunny saturday.gonna soak up the sun from 9-18)
where? ACJC(duh!)
why (buy)? for fun,joy,laughter,since this will constitute as part of break time from mugging.apart from that there's also metro and long john silver vouchers for your spending pleasure...value for money lah

how (to buy)? order from your frens in ACJC(recommended)...or if you dun haf any frens there,juz bug me in AJC for tix(then i'll call my fren there 2 reserve tix 4 u)

looks like I'll start buying more,not to line their pockets,though

Borriquito and Best Denki fever.Pukka

jokes galore:compiled from 2 days of crapping

Dengue fever has a new mutant.it's the best denki fever.symptoms?craving for the electronic chain Best Denki(not a bad temptation after all.they've got good range of electronics)
Avian flu's symptoms include high fever,Bird flu's symptoms include being as ill as an infected bird.but Cock Flu's sypmtoms is the tendency to talk cock.(talkingcock.com is the mecca of all the talking of cock and the preservation of our Singlish heritage)

and of course,the Borriquito joke.this is the official version(rating pending for gore,coarse language and crap)

WARNING:SPOILER DETAILS FOLLOW

Borriquito:the mass dance of AJC.involves chicken actions,chionging around,acting hungry and shaking your bon bon(a la ricky martin) as you dance in a circle with your mateys.the music is damn corny actually
Mosquito:rhymes with the above.Aedes and Anopheles are the bastards responsible for a whole range of diseases

assuming you get bitten by a mosquito,and no matter how much the doctors try to save you,you die of dengue fever or malaria or whatever mosquito transmitted disease...the story didn't quite end here

you end up in Hell.you see a slack Admin personnel from CMPB(Central Mortuary Posting Bureau) who kinda looks as if he want to chao keng.you think...damn jia lat.and he is.he tells you to go to the Mosquito or Borriquito room...all in a monotone that sounds like shit

you end up in the room.another arsehole similar to the one you've just met now reads out whatever deeds you've done in your mortal life,whether you've sinned or not.it's remarkable they actually record your deeds.before you could deny anything,a judge passes a verdict

you're a sinner.so they damn sadist make you go to the mosquito room.wah piang eh,so many mosquitos.then they even more savage,make millions of mosquitos sting you at one go.you feel itchy,then you start scratching.

but not only you try to swat all the mosquitoes in vain,because they attack your whole body,when you try to scratch you end up tearing your meat out.

the most disgusting part is you get ill,then you get fever.it's hot as hell,so your brain chao tar liao(carbon).but then hor the hell guards more hong *** one.they cut your head a la hannibal,take out your brain,repair it(the above formula is a trade secret),and they put back and start the same old routine all over again

but if you're a good person,you end up in heaven.you see people dance Borriquito there.angels and virtuous people alike.they pause the music and see you're a noob.they invite you in and somehow you agreed.you slot in to the circle and they shout MUSIC PLEASE!the music starts all over again,and they dance damn fast one la

what happens is that Satan couldn't go to heaven to raid because he's allergic to halos.so he can only look for satan worshippers on earth.but then the mosquitoes in heaven are also afraid of noise,so they have to migrate down to earth.Satan gets bitten and he's forced to go back to hell,supplying more mosquitoes in the process...and the eternal loop goes on and on

Apologies for the long winded story

homemade booze part 2

1)cook rice
2)cool it
3)spread yeast and colouring underneath the 'barrel'
4)stack rice atop it
5)do the same thing twice
6)add enough water to make it look like some disgusting thick goo
7)top off with the 3 combo
8)shut it with a double cloth layer
9)weigh down with 2 leaves and a knife atop a wooden board(whatever pagan origins i dunno)
10)shut up

not for molotov cocktails,but it's too crude to be drunk like fine beers.got that from my gran

BN FOREVER

BN is the most havoc class in the history of CCHSM.no doubt about that they can even do alot of stuff in the chalet.

day 1:only 5 were on hand at tampines interchange.chalet looked like a penthouse(not a bungalow) and apart from a few ants and a quite dirty floor,it's kinda good.dinner:salmon steak and parma ham.all thanks to the microwave oven and stove.yeah it's back to the mahjong and cards of chalet life,particularly when you dun have much to do if you are concerned about walking down the road to changi village.cas,chris and ruben,smong others start filterin in.so 4 guys and 6 girls had the whole chalet to themselves,and spent a large part of the night gossipin until rain came down.dee king vs dee shit up next and i seem to be the guy who sleeps early,albeit at 0333 am on the first day.

day 2:woke up at 8.30,and with jean and the guys gone,i had the whole kitchen to myself while watchin music videos.my fave onion omelete and bread popped into the microwave oven beautifully started the day and then dee with the ladies left.afternoon got errand,so came back in the evening.barbecue went badly actually.If I were (Gordon) Ramsay I'd have let fly at the guys on the pit.put so much honey for what.and then with the exception of valerie and zhirui,the rest watched me flame the beef.grrr the striploin was gone case(it was too tough.thanks py for letting me know that) but was more successful with the ribeye.

more BBQ advice(the above may (not) be correct)
1:get a large fire going before cooking
2:save the honey for the last minute or so,or don't put at all
3:BBQ does not mean reheating stuff from the frozen foods section in the supermarket
4:don't overdo the margarine
5:Get a large enough grate to prevent food spillage

bum.then sian diaoz until later that night go old changi hospital!aaaahhhhh!it didn't help tt ruben was insulting a few ah bengs as they were walking out of the building.so scared of them and their sticks,we decided to sit down on the ground and wait until the coast is clear.mats are more helpful and less aggressive,I can admit.they even invited us to go up.but in the end it's only the 2nd floor.the 4th floor is reputed to be the most haunted.bang bang bang!!(doors opening and closing)

yawn as always they play until dawn when in the chalet.but they are better,because they didn't get drunk.looking forward to aloha next time round

p.s:costa sands east coast's closing! sob =(

OCS

Good Morning SIR!

I'm happy that my dear cousin has been comissioned as an officer in the SAF at last.oh yeah have a nice chat with his just now and it's so long since i can talk in length to him.oh yeah i'm so happy that i dun have enough tv time...i'm just so content with the weekly football and rugby.see what happens to those impressionable youngsters in the house watching too much drama serials(mostly of not so impressive quality).now they make alot of noise trying to emulate the dramas they watched.worrying la

and the commissioning parade went well,tthough having to wait for 1h before kor marches out is a bit tedious.lucky my uncle,who was once from OCS talked about some millitary stuff,about sphagetti(lieutenants and the sort of junior occifers) and crabs(senior officers,or Sir to most soldiers).OCS IS SO NICE!!!!I dun mean the buildings only.my dear dad,who did decently okay for NS would have been starting to worry if I sign on.

of course harry potter have so much diffference where the movie and book is concerned.overall it's ok,but the best seems to be those rated movies(esp NC16).here are some of the variations

Barty Crouch jr
B:got arrested with those Lestranges
M:Karkaroff accused him in court(while Harry was in the pensieve)

Ced Diggory
B:no mention on his body after he got transported back dead.the feast was turned into a memorial service for him
M:his poor dad was crying when he saw him dead.the memorial service looked as if it was a church setting

Task 1
B:harry dodged the chained-up dragon
M:dragon broke out of the chain and they were then whizzing around.a pukka scene

Task 2
B:Fleur was not disqualified
M:Fleur was disqualified and then she thanks potter for saving her sis

Task 3
B:only Ced and Harry was mentioned
M:Fleur was entangled while Krum was stunned.see the part where he freak out.

Ball
B:Ron was with Fleur
M:Ron and Harry sian diaoz with the Parvatis Siamming One Corner

QWC(the krum part)
B:Veela
M:moving Tifosi.lesson for those Italian ultras next time

update you with more bloopers and bleepers next time

hahax i'm juz as lazy as my fren...whole day edit my dugout times then no time for the rest..but whatever,whose holidays still have blues?

seems like i'm making trips to the library recently...read lots of good books during the time,be it BBQ(who says bbq is just honey drizzled chicken wings and marshmallows?gonna bring in the american version full of wood smoke fragrance/odour),wine(interesting atlas of all the fine wine regions.aspires to sell good wine and beer as well.i can never be a teetolaler,so avoid getting ym liver pickled) or history.

there's one book that i just can't put down...that of Charlemagne.talks about his life and even the middle ages.talk about goin back in time.it's way better than SEA history(admittedly I'm more Eurocentric).had there been 2 basileus living in peace,one at Constantinople(Istanbul) and one at the West,it would have been an earlier renaissance...whatever the case he has so much of a bravado

yay next week's BN chalet.I miss BN!!

YAWNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

hahax that's a misnomer actually.it didn't quite end up the sian diaoz day i've,but wenz just came back from some campy thingy,so it's the second straight week that both gave HP a miss.i think they will dramatically reduce the showtimes for HP...no more sat afternoon ones...haiz muz watch it asap!but i think i got a few kakis to go watch chicky little.might give narnia a miss because i'm so broke =( and those rated movies too are too good but too steep (things like R21 History of Violence which is super zai but comes with a mind numbing amount of...you guessed it...violence)

game on...i won't know how i can add to my measly neoprint album.somehow my plan failed and so it was a walk around orchard centre as I look for Wini at Zara.and there's none of that hair raising experience at that time...just Wini lookin at me,talk some stuff and pass those presents...of course my heart melted seeing her laugh(never mind that she looked merely ordinary without make up).too bad she went to meet her friend late.

evening was rachie's concert.as always my cover got blew up,first by michelle babe and then by another of my teowww mates.but no teowwwing during this concert.i would have done it if TCF was garbling all those stupid dictatorial crap.as always it's so tiring so no more elaboration on that

P.S:bon voyage wini

In Memory.Pacita 1946-2003

2 days of Archives service learning ends...Van,Joce and Doreen...looks like i won't know what you guys would be doing for AVA,but I think CY,Ci,Rara and SK have just did our part for the archiving of art history in Singapore.it's like,with every video watched,we got insights of how much that Pacita Abad have contributed to the art scene in Singapore

unfortunately though,all the vibrant colours and unique media Pacita has worked on,all inspired from her trips around the world,would be only seen on video.if she hadn't worked on the bridge at clarke quay,if not for the collaboration with the Singapore Tyler Print Institute,Singapore's visual arts scene would have been like a desert,much less a melting pot of cultures.though she's Filipino,her contributions to the arts scene deserves to be better appreciated by the public.i find that all of us were questioning who the heck is Pacita Abad,but the videos have more or less rubbed off the art connoiseur in some of us

actually i'm not an insider myself,but the Archives are also doing their part in keeping art history.this stint have been extremely fruitful although I heard tt gary and the guys from Accession got to wield katanas and other artefacts.hehe will leave here for now
