New years?

aite...

there's about an hour and a half to the end of 2007.

which means another measly year is coming to a start, which is that of 2008.

i start my attachment tmr, which utterly sucks, but last night was a great time spent with friends around a bbq pit and at mt. faber. I'll discuss more about last night when i receive the photos from amy.

So, with that said, another short and sweet post to end the new year.

I'm headed to bed before everyone starts to...

countdown
kiss
hug
laugh
smile
cheer
get wasted
make-out in dark corners
have sexual intercourse

blah blah blah...!

FUCK THE NEW YEAR COMING!

later from the holiday party pooper! out!

x-mas?

So...x-mas is officially over...woopie fucking doo...

I pretty much slept through the whole day today.

Got plastered alone last night. Reason being: depressed!

I ended up drinking 6 large bottles of beer, almost half a bottle of Abolut Kurant Vodka and apparently i finished a whole bottle of shiraz.

Yup..that made me puke 2 times, end up with blurry vision and most importantly, forget!

I completely forgot what happened after the wine. I thought there was still left overs this morning, but apparently it was all gone. I was quite surprised that i finished all that alcohol alone.

Oh well, it was a good night to get crunked and pass x-mas.

Christmas is officially fucking over...now it's time to get passed the whole fucking new year thing. I don't think i can top new years with this years personal x-mas party! Gotta plan something extra special for venture into 2008.

I'm out! peace!

The Grinch

If your a die hard christmas freak and are in the holiday spirit...LEAVE NOW!

Okay, it's that time of year again that SUCKS!

You can all call me Grinch, if you please!

The Christmas season is always a downer for me and I'll always post something negative about it. I just can't stand the holiday season. Most may know, or not know, that the holiday season brought a lot of hate and anger into me when i was a child, so i guess it kind of stuck with me since then. From a professionals point of view, I'm pretty psychotic about the whole x-mas/new year thing.

Every year, when i was a child, my holiday would have gotten ruined by my parents. They end up fighting and screaming at each other, which left a really negative impact on my life. After the age of about 14, when i stopped celebrating with my family and started hanging out late with friends, x-mas became times of destruction and vandalism. We use to go around and put things on fire, break cars blah blah blah...anything that was unethical and illegal. However, with all the fun and excitement that we had, i was still missing something. I'm sure my friends were too. I think by being unwanted by family, we ended up finding each other and taking out our anger on everyone else. We all needed family or at least someone to be with that was special. No doubt our times together were special, but it's a different feeling...ya feel me?

This year, like many previous years, is gonna be a lone and saddening event. I've planned it all out. I'll be plastering myself at home tmr night, reminiscing about the past, thinking about my present and looking forward to my future. It's gonna be an oh so boring and unexciting night.

Christmas in one word, SUCKS and New Years is just another entry to another rotten year. I can't stand the fact that so many are happy during this time of year. I'm jealous. I'm Envious - it's true and i'm not afraid to admit it. All that gift giving, cheerful faces, loved couples and families, makes me sick that i can't have that. I've never been able to spend a great Christmas in front of a fireplace, have a turkey dinner and get crunked with champagne.

If Santa could ever grant me one wish, it would be able to spend one holiday with someone special. That's all i ask for. Just that one person that could bring joy and happiness into my life. Make this Grinch smile and glow. Most importantly, to make everyone else around me feel envious.

I know this post makes me sound selfish, but isn't everyone entitled wish and want something?

Many people may not understand where I'm coming from, but i know a bunch that do. They all reside back home in Toronto and it's making me miss them more and more! This year is much more heart thorn than any previous year. Why? reason being is that after this year, i may never be able to return home for a visit for at least 5 years. From what i have visioned for myself, i don't see myself returning back due to career opportunities and further education.

Anyways, i don't want to elaborate anymore on the situation and start ruining everyones x-mas and new year spirit and plans.

So...I'll leave with this..

To All...

Clubbers, Alcoholics and Party freaks: Drink Responsible and have fun!
Couples: Be sensible and practice safe sex aite?
Families: Make sure not to neglect the holiday seasons!
Singles: Open a bottle of jacks or vodka and drink yourselves away!

oh and if your like me, that hates almost everything about the whole holiday season than scream...

FUCK X-MAS AND FUCK NEW YEARS...WHO GIVES A FLYING FUCK, BITCHES!

Add on!

Here is a add on to the last post..


i've uploaded a PDF file that i received from an e-mail from Mat.

It's about the new cab fare hikes. This is an Official Press Release Fact Sheet from ComfortDelgro

Download the file here:

http://www.zshare.net/download/577211863da73f/

Anyways, after reading it, most of the things from the last post is correct.

There was something QUITE funny from this release. They said that they increased the city area surcharge from S$1.00 to S$3.00 to encourage drivers to pick up people from the City Area. That's complete BS because lots of people are still stuck without cabs.

AND

The 35% increase for the peak hour surcharge is outrages. It's like having to pay night charges in the day. Pathetic excuse to earn more money if you ask me.

So during the hours of 5pm to 8pm, you have to pay the city surcharge of S$3.00 PLUS an additional 35% increase of the total meter.

After 8pm, which shouldn't be considered peak hour anymore, is still affected by the additional fares. Does that make sense to anyone? I'm surely lost for words. It's like after 5pm til the next morning at 6am, cabs are just a glamorous item to travel with. What if your rushing and short on cash? what if you happened to leave your atm card at home and only have limited cash on you? Just What IF?

argh..i'm out! peace!

Cab Fare Hikes!

[SONG] Omarion and Bow Wow - Girlfriend Official Remix

Alright, i'm vexed!

Cab fares in Singapore have sky rocketed!

I didn't think they were going to increase prices by two-folds. I assumed that it would be a few cents, but i was so wrong, and i found out the hard way tonight.

Here's what the cab driver told me:

1) Start fare is S$2.80
2) every 310km is a S$0.20 cent jump..it used to be S$0.10 cents for every 210km (see the difference?)
3) Boarding from the Central Business District (CBD area) is an additional S$3.00 (from 5pm to 12pm)
4) Peak hour charge is now 35% of total cab fare...meaning S$10.00 will have an additional S$3.50 on top AND it starts when the time passes 5:00pm. So this means, that it's like getting charged early midnight charges in the day.
5) On-Call charges are around S$3.50 to S$4.00

so..here's some math for you all.

On Call Charge, CBD boarding, Peak Hour and Meter Start time...totals about S$12.00 before even releasing the foot off the break. (4+2.80+3.00+35% = ALOT OF FUCKING MONEY)

This currently applies to new comfort cabs and i think city cabs as well. All cabs will eventually change to this system, it just depends on time. This change is due to maintenance fees of the new cabs (kia sonata) and the price hikes on fuel/gas/petrol/oil!

So, i was in the cab with amanda, cussing and swearing in my heart with the new additional charges. I usually have to pay about S$12-S$14 bucks to reach home from town...today it racked up to S$18.20. That's not bad considering i didn't have the peak hour surcharge and the on-call charge on top.

This system is a HUGE change. I will defiantly think more than twice to take a cab from now on. The safest bet is to take a cab before 5 and not within the CBD area. It's horrific i tell you! Your eyes will literally bulge out when you see your total fare on the meter!

Chansey told me it was suppose to be about a 49% increase to what we normally pay. I didn't believe her cuz i wasn't effected when i took a cab in the day. I total see where she was going with it when i saw the meter jump like a little bitch today. My heart was falling out with my wallet that didn't have much cash left inside.

they should have a new slogan or something...eg. "take a cab if your born in royalty" or "if your families loaded, hop on"... seriously you need to be dirt loaded before even considering looking at a cab now. The amount i will pay to reach home with all those charges would have been enough to get me home from Changi Airport back in the day.

Oh and did i mention that it's still a bitch to get a cab? it's like people around me are getting richer, un-aware of the new prices or just plain stupid to be feeding these huge organizations with more money.

I'm vexed, agitated and disturbed with this whole new strategy they have implemented. Whatever happen to 20 cent increases or even 50 cent increases? this is a totally new system and it's about 50% more expensive then ever.

i'm out!

fucking cabs.

Miss World 2007

I just finished watching Miss World 2007 on Channel 5.

Links:

Official Site
Wikipedia


This years show seemed so, boring and unattractive compared to previous years. It seemed that there was no budget to make it grand and their wasn't enough planning to make it spectacular. I was quite disappointed from the start.

I would have imagined, like many previous years, that there would be more performances and more supporters. It was so bland that i almost fell asleep, just waiting for the results. The girls this year, judging by looks, weren't as attractive. I personally loved, Korea, China, USA, Sweden, France, Venezuela, Thailand and Indonesia.

By being adventurous to venture into Sanya China to hold the event, was spectacular. I never knew such a place existed. It looked wonderful. Instead of going to some mainstream country/city, I'm glad that the association had the guts to venture into a area of exoticness and culture. It was quite a surprise to here that it was in China, seriously.

Now on to the main part, the ladies.

- Congratulations to Zi Lin Zhang of PRC for being the winner of Miss World 2007



Though her English isn't the greatest, the effort put in was great. I think she deserved the win, no doubt. However, i think there was a bit of a biasness when deciding due to the Beijing Olympics coming up in 2008. I'm quite happy she won, its marks a new era for china and chinese people around. Congrats again!

- INDONESIA - Kamidia RADISTI



Indonesia was one of the TOP beauties of the night (My opinion). I think if she brushed up on her talks, she could have done a lot better. She was really nervous and the answers given were not really enticing. However, the competition isn't all about looks right? lol.

- KOREA - Eun-Ju CHO



Korea, to me, was the cutest of them all. Her body out surpasses many of the contestants as well. I wish she would have made it into the top 3 though. It would be nice to see more of her around. I'm sure the Korea media is gonna eat her up, so no frets, if your into Koreans and all, your sure to see her in some Korean magazines or something, in the near future.

- THAILAND - Kanokkorn JAICHUEN



What a Beaut. Thailand's representative this year was beautiful. I thought initially she was from Japan or something. Just wonderful.

- VENEZUELA - Claudia Paola SUREZ FERNANDEZ




Just look at that body..nuff said right? lol!

- FRANCE - Rachel LEGRAIN-TRAPANI



The French seem to know how to really present themselves. I thought she presented herself the best throughout the night. She was exquisite.

Disappointments

- SPAIN - Natalia ZABALA ARROYO



If her spoken segments did better, i may have actually noticed her postitively. I thought she could have done a lot better if she worked harder.

- SINGAPORE - Roshni Kaur SOIN



Singapore was way too shy and showed lack of confidence. I thought that she could have done a lot better. She was a big disappointment to me.

- CANADA - Sara GHULAM



I guess because i'm Canadian i expected a lot more from Canada. Over the years, Canada was sending representatives with brains and beauty. This year was a complete flop. Its just sad. I'm quite speechless.


There is my mini-synopses of the whole thing. Everything stated was of opinion and should not be taken to heart. Your own perspectives are yours to keep. Take a look at the links at the top of the page for more details and photos of the contestants.

Peace!

blah!

Shayne Ward - A Better Man

Exams are coming up next week so updating will be suspended for a good 9 days or so.

I'm totally utterly screwed for Financial Management and probably Hospitality Law. I'm quite sure the rest of the subjects will be passes - barely!

-

On another note..

Ytd our class went to the Siloso Beach Resort. The layout of the resort was, in one word, messy! The lobby was smaller than my house and the area wasn't fully covered, making it hard to get around with the rain.

The rooms were small, but nicely decorated. I LOVED the suite which comes with a private jacuzzi and a connecting door to the top platform - Wonderful! Also, the pool uses spring water in the pool, which looks wonderful (photo below)

All in all, i wouldn't recommended anyone to stay therep personally, but if your looking for a weekend get-a-way in singapore then what the heck? right? haha!

-

I've FINALLY passed a bit of my bad luck streak, though my financial problems are well...still problems!!

FUCK!

Photos....



This is what chansey did to me....!!!!!!!!!!



This is suppose to be a pussy with a clit..the picture didn't come out that well =) (it's actually a bent arm with a finger at the top)



This looks like a better picture, with added pubic hair haha (with a bent knee)

Financial Crisis!

My dad is officially the worst and most irresponsible father in the world! Enough said!

It's been a sweet 2 months now, since he promised to send me money for my school fees. Until this date, i have yet to receive anything in the thousands.

Because of the financial delays and the lack of responsibilities to support his one and only son, i am now, financially big in debts.

I owe...

Singtel: $258.00
Starhub Internet: $196.00
Friends totallying: $270.00

The headaches and stress this man is putting me through is endless. There's always something new with this guy that i just can't seem to understand. As a father, he was never there for me nor was he there financially. However, when he agreed to send me overseas to study, you would imagine that he grew up and started to care for his son. Well NNNNNOOOOO, that's the complete opposite of what's happening.

He can still go shop like a freak, plan trips to australia and southeast asia and have the guts to ask me which phone i want and if i wanted to join them on their trip. How thoughtful right? wrong.. i would have thought he would have started saving his earnings and shit for me to continue my studies and not to worry about anything financially.

PUHLEASE!

this is not the shit i need. I just need MONEY...the greens, the ching ching, the denaro, the benjamins blah blah blah..you get my point.

As a care giver in the future, i would never put my children in a position i couldn't handle. I wouldn't want them to worry about anything that shouldn't. I know how it feels, and it's simple to write it down, but deep down, there's just way more to it.

I could tell you ALL the shit my dad put me through as a child, but there just wouldn't be enough time to, in fact, there wouldn't be enough space on this blog either. My mom is the only person i can depend on and it's no wonder i use to be so much closer to her in the past.

Right now, i don't need any of them. I just need their money. I know it's cruel to say, but being raised within a western society and having been developed through their cultures, it's just what we do. It's our right of passage in lame terms.

My dad is putting me in a position that i don't know how to account for. I REALLY REALLY thought he changed when he started trying to get closer to me. I guess i was utterly wrong and that he has actually worsened in my eyes. He is irresponsible, hard headed, stubborn and a mess..all bundled nicely to a big ball of shit!!!!!

I've always wanted to be someone else when i was growing up, now i just wish i had another father!

vexed all the way! out!
