For Your Entertainment (Part II)


"To the ends of the earth would I search.
Through rampant storms would I sail.
Not knowing where or how is like a plague.
I just need to have you around for my own sake."

Let's Play,The Age Is Right!

When my students at St Patrick's guess my age, they normally tell me I look about 20-25 and sometimes even 18. Same goes for when I was teaching at St Stephen's. However, today at Ngee Ann primary, the girls there suggested that I looked 35!!! Maybe it's the facial hair I've been keeping. Time to shave to look young again! Working life has been taking a toll on me. I haven't been keeping up to my gym schedule or eating the right food or regularly for that matter. What's the secret to not being lazy? Motivation!

The Light At The End of the Tunnel

I see the light at the end of the tunnel.
What obstacles I will face, I don't know.
But all I want to do, is experience something new.
Familiar faces and familiar sounds
surround me as I walk by the once open territory
I used to love so dear.
Now I see with brand new eyes.
The vision of thy enemy,
I once wanted to be.
After you've succumb to the toils and snares,
the path is open to your new found freedom.
Life as we know it,
ceases to exist.
Oh how you will miss
the love and warmth of thy bliss.

In My Mind

"In my mind
Been a little hazy

Clouded with confusion
Dived into depression

Everyday is a riddle
Waiting to be solved

What will happen after
Could just be a disaster


When it's time to strike
It'd hit you like in your first fight."

Run The Show

"They who come to me shall not hunger;

they who believe in me shall not thirst.

And they who eat of this bread,

they shall live forever,

they shall live forever."

Stronger Than Ever!

Corey was just recently promoted as Sergent of his unit. And in celebration of his new rank and hmm bigger pay cheque, it called for another visit to Chevy's with a bottle of famous grouse waiting to be opened and some dancing! What's so great about this bar is that play everything from The Beatles to Jay-Z; from the 1960's to 2000's; from the young to the old! I think in our future visits we won't just be listening to just the band play but rocking out to the singing from within our circle too. Now that would be awesome!

Go!

Some updates from last weekend.

Attended the St Patrick's School Youth Olympic Games Carnival. Had loads of catching up with teachers and former school mates and the usual nicknack. Went for Addison's housewarming party after. So glad for him that he has moved out from his little squeezy room back at the condo to his new chic and utterly SICK new crib! Progressed on to Shangrila after for Lorenzo's farewell party. Lucky guy's going to be in France for his Air Force training for about a year.

It's no wonder I'm so lethargic everyday.

Obsessed

Anything better than Cadbury Chocolate and Jack Daniel's?
You just can't share certain things unless you're ready. Hold back and restrain. Otherwise it'd be etched so deep within you it becomes an ugly part of life. Slow down on that chocolate and hold your liquor. There's a time for everything. Perfection will come with some patience. I don't know, but I hope that's true, anyway!

The Young Ones

Celebrated my niece's 13th birthday this evening with a fantastic dinner party at my cousin's house. Had some wrestling matches, dance-offs and an amazing singing showcase put up by my nephews who performed "Mad World" and few other songs for the family. Yes, I may be 21 and you may be just 13 but that does not make me old, I'm basically older, dear. Happy Birthday, Alisha!

Too Much Too Young

I feel like too much is happening and at the same time nothing is coming together. I've never really had a strict focus/ goal in life before. But it's something I've always imagined and thought about because there's so many things I actually I wanna do that it's nearly impossible. But after much deliberation, I finally have a clear... focused... career aspiration. I even entertained myself with thinking of some fall back plans because not everything is smooth sailing. I think my mistake has been wanting too much that I never knew where to begin and hence came the procrastinations. Bad idea!

Time To Make You Sweat!

My go-to shop for pastries and cakes is nowhere but Savoury Fare at East Coast! Some friends and family would know me for buying them the delicious... Oreo Cheesecake on their birthday. But just recently, they added a new scrumptious... mouth-watering... Brownie Cheesecake and after one bite, it'd be no shocker why it is my current staple!

We bought this for Cassie's birthday last week and I was gratified to find that everyone including Debs who doesn't eat cheesecake liked... I mean LOVED it after trying some. Pearl said "like" is a total understatement, and hell yeah it is! It's gonna leave you feeling Yummy head to toe. If you're diet drama, you still can't help but grab hold of another piece!

The Palawan Birthday Adventure

Last weekend together with the crew we celebrated Cassie's 20th birthday. We met first for the 11.15am Mass at Holy Family and afterwards cabbed down to Vivo for lunch and headed to Palawan beach at Sentosa. We were pretty lucky to have perfect weather that Sunday afternoon being that it rained quite much the past week or so. But anyway it was a really perfect day filled with our usual bullshit but underneath all that, we have fun and love each other to the core. Life is just a lullaby. Everything that happens, happens for a reason. Happy Birthday, Gorgeous!

Suddenly I See...

I think I have a relatively good work ethic. Started work at Sentosa Golf Club doing F&B, waitering stuff. And despite my slow pace at adjusting to a new environment and constant nonsensical chattering, I was actually commended for my work and given an honor that I was told nobody else had received.

Whenever I go into a new job, I like to get into it with the idea and remember that this is new and there's always something I can take away from the job and experiences I engage in. Hence why I'm USUALLY not too concerned about the amount I'm being paid. I know it sounds cliché but sometimes the reward of the experience makes up for the lack of money or the "voluntary service" provided.

Furthermore, certain things like the ethics and practices of your colleagues; the operations of the industry; the challenges and solutions of a problem are few examples of things to look out for. Basically, capitalize on everything you do because one day it would just come in handy. Despite the strenuous work load at the club having colleagues that you can talk and joke with makes it all worth the time and effort! Oh and being paid helps a tad too!

Diana-saur

Bought 2 new shirts about a month ago for 2 celebrations that was to take place in July. The first was the brown shirt I wore for Gavin's birthday and the second piece a white shirt with a blue line going down in the middle and I wore this for Diana's 20th last Wednesday! It reminds me of being a sailor for some reason. And both are from Topman! I think the new collections that have been coming in recently are really starting to take off!

Due to some lack of mixers, guests at the party ended up mixing really weird concoctions. But that was all good after I tried this delicious treat at the party called "Crinkles" brought by Erika all the way from the Philippines. After one, I just could not help myself but ate one after the other. The party moved over to Zouk after for some dirrty dancing all the way until closing and back to the hotel then! Hence the lack of updates due to the lack of sleep! Happy Birthday, Diana!
