Change of blogsite

Yeah yeah... I know what you're gonna say.


Again?



Yuh.


You don't go out much, do you?


No, not really. But then again, I ain't very free either. That's why I am fast forwarding the launch of the new webbie.

You will notice that there isn't any tagboard for this new website. Anyone and everyone who wants to chat will definitely have to post a comment. Haha...

Puny little human. Hulk smash!

I feel weak. As weak as Bruce Banner. The Hulk is trying it's best to come out, but so far, the only thing that managed to come out of me is vomit. Lots of it.

MC today, feeling really sick. So sick that even after medication (which I deem to be lousy) and a good rest, I still feel sick, if not worse than earlier on.

Haven't been able to blog for a bit now, haven't I?

Well, the reason being, my company was advised not to use the Internet during office hours, so nuff said on that.

Still waiting to get out of this frigging job and get a nicer one, with nicer people, nicer environment, and hopefully, a nicer paycheck.

Signing off, Alex

A hairy situation

As I am sitting here, taking a crap after a stomach ache which was caused by something that was deemed as a bad meal, I realise that the sides of my thighs have grown hair. Omfg!

Does this confirm that as you age, hair starts growing out of everywhere, sucking your hair follicles from the top of your head to create a mat of chest hair, or hairy palms, or *gasp* HAIRY EARS!

Momma, I don't wanna grow up. I want to be 18 again. BOO HOO HOOOOOOOOO!

Wah lan eh. My friends bought the HG toy, and they never even let me in on it, even though I told a couple of them about it. Fuck lah... what friends.

A Tale of Two Different Games

Watched game 4 of the NBA Finals, as well as the first match for the night's WC coverage. POWER, two different games, both were almost one-sided affairs.


Miami, powered by D-Wade, totally strolled past Dallas with clinical finishing and tough defense. Dallas were guily of lousy finishing and bad teamwork.


For the WC, Argentina totally destroyed Serbia & Montenegro (S&M *sniggers*) with their superb passing and teamwork. 6-0, good lordy, as football365's reporter put it.


To sum it up, I should have bet more on Argentina. Bah. Ha!

Tiger's father passes on

Earl Woods, the father of US golf legend Tiger Woods and the mastermind behind his son's stellar career, died Wednesday after a long battle with cancer, Tiger Woods announced.
Earl Woods, 74, died in the home in the California town of Cypress where he raised his famous son, the golfer said in a statement on his website.


"Im very saddened to share the news of my fathers passing at home early this morning," Woods said.


"My dad was my best friend and greatest role model, and I will miss him deeply. Im overwhelmed when I think of all of the great things he accomplished in his life. He was an amazing dad, coach, mentor, soldier, husband and friend.


"I wouldnt be where I am today without him, and Im honored to continue his legacy of sharing and caring," he said.


Former Green Beret soldier Earl Woods has been battling prostate cancer since 1998.

SGeans and their dirty habits

Over the past few months of riding my bike along the streets of Singapore... I have come to learn of a few things which aren't really good.

- A minority of drivers signal before filtering lane in front of a bike
- An even smaller minority of that minority say thank you when you allow them to filter
- Motorcycles are deemed to be pesky by car drivers, but what about themselves?
- Drivers speed up upon seeing that you have signalled your intention to filter lanes
- SGeans are KPO when accidents happen, causing huge traffic jams where and when possible
- Traffic police have the 'authority' to speed during normal patrols, but not lesser mortals like us
- Traffic police seem to be busier during bonus time
- Bus lanes in SG are redundant, except in TP's opinion

- - - - -

Watching NBA Finals game 3 even though I know the result, as well as the Tunisia vs Saudi Arabia game. Shaq's wife is a hottie, especially when she's jumping up and down wearing that tight white sleeveless tee-shirt. *oops*

In footie news, Cardiff City has signed Magpies homeboy Michael Chopra. Sigh. Though I am sad that this scoring prodigy (In England U-21 and Newcastle reserve ranks), I am happy for him as he was never going to get his chance to shine for his boyhood club, one of the reasons being that he is too similiar to Michael Owen. Newcastle needs a striker in Alan Shearer's mould.

I think this has been the longest post in a long time, hasn't it? Heh.

Went to a fengshui master on dear's request. Though I am sceptical on fengshui, I guessed that it wouldn't hurt to just go, check it out.

After the appointment, in which I chanced upon my former campmate Kelvin Chee along the way, we headed over to Seoul Garden to have a buffet dinner.. and BOY DID WE EAT!! Not to mention, it cost me almost $50. Gone are the days of $7.99 student meals. Heh.

Alright, gotta go. Time to update my resume. And also to contemplate on whether or not to confirm my appointment with my company, thus increasing my pain and suffering there, as well as my pay by another $250.

Keane retires!

Roy Keane has officially called time on his playing career, due to a long-standing battle with his hip.

The midfield general has been outstanding throughout his career, mostly with Manchester United, and has had lots of tiffs with many a player, including one recently retired Alan Shearer.

Though one will definitely be reminded of his unproud tackle on that Manchester City player, Haaland, it's just one of a few blemishes in a glittering career.

*salutes*

Bah!

So, it's tea break in work-land once again. And the slacker Alex has decided to use his boss's pc to blog about the 'wonderful' things in work-land, amongst other things.

The evil Malaysian colleague spoke to me today, driving thoughts of 'Beware the stab in the back" into my head. But, he was just asking about some items that were checked by the both of us previously before we got on bad terms. Actually, if you asked me, I would say that he is being extremely childish, but I'm too lazy to blog out what happened to make me derive that.

Forgot to bring my socks today, forcing me to wear my safety shoes without socks... and thus, making new friends in the numerous BLISTERS that I have around my feet and ankles. BAH!

I've been late the whole of June, so far. And the wonderful thing about this company is that even if you punch in 1 minute past 8am, you get your pay docked by about $5. Brilliant eh? So I have decided to be slightly earlier from tomorrow onwards, maybe reaching here by 7.55am, cos the darn queue for punching in your timecard is like super long lah!

Getting used to the functions of my new Motorola SLVR L7. It's kinda like a little hard to use, and the memory card capacity is only good for songs and photos. If you wanna use a customised ringing tone, cannnnn, just make sure that it won't go past 4mb cos that's what my phone memory is left with. Brilliant!

This week has been hectic, school wise. 3 lectures this week. Two with the BS lecturer (that's business statistics) and one coming up tonight with TS, and a presentation later on as well. Luckily it's been completed. I did the research, Tracy and Joanne did the powerpoint, and Seph and Nick will be presenting it later on. Looks good, so far. Too bad it's not our assignment, if not, ACE LIAO LOR!

Okay okay, break time is over. Gotta get back to my stupid job, BAH!
