Bad People are Good...
They make good people look damn good! Without the bad, there can be no good!

Just came back from Mumbai, it was really an eye opener. Especially after Andre brought us on a tour. We took a cab to the gateway of india and visited the Taj Mahal Hotel. Wah lan, if u tell people u stay in this hotel they will bow down to you. Eh... i dun think any hotel in Singapore can match such status. It's the hotel that all the stars and important diplomatic go to. Anyway, crew in the past stayed there too!

*The Gateway of India

Oh i forgot to mention, the cab look damn retro, haha... and if u were to travel by cab, remember to insist on paying by meter. If not they will charge u ridiculously high rate. Anyway even if they operate by meter they can still overchage u coz nobody knows how to read the freaking meter. haha... Which is also damn retro looking too!


The Taj Mahal Hotel is a restored colonial building, something like our Fullerton Hotel, except on a grander scale. Anyway Fullerton is a 6 star hotel, that makes the Taj Mahal Hotel at least 6 stars too. Damn... Too bad we won't get to stay there. Hee... maybe in the future i strike it rich, i would book a suite there when i go to Mumbai for vacation.

After the visit, we took a train back to our hotel. Haha... And when i say train, i really mean train. Imagine our MRT but the trains are replaced with Singapore - Malaysia railway trains. We actually ran after a moving train and jump onboard, i thot u would only see this in movies. Actually, it's kind of fun, although it's perilous at the same time. WTF... excitement actually derives from danger itself! Muahahahahaha...

*Destination & Departure time of Trains, If only i could read Hindi! haha...

*Our hotel ain't bad either. hee... Intercontinental Grand Mumbai.

Anyway on the sector back, i kanna "bitched" all the way back to singapore. My god, i just wish i could disappear into thin air. Nevertheless, i survived the "bitching", thanks to the other nice colleagues who helped me along. Dun ask me what happened, coz it's a long story. But somehow, it has affected my perception on alot of things, especially my work and as well as created a sense of dread for every next flight.

But then again, there should be nothing to worry about coz, like they say, it's just an isolated incident. Or should i? I hope not.

Awww... No more sunshine!
haha... think this deserved an entry on it's own! haha... Anyway it's a bloody rainy day today! dammit!

Oh... I HATE RAIN. haha...

Sad case lah, or rather for me lah, i found out from a friend last thurday that my SUNSHINE GAL is married already. haha... Actually there are 2 sunshine gals in my life lah, she is know as "daylight saving" while the other is "GMT+8".

Haha... For the more avid traveller, u should know what both terms means. haha... Let just put it this way, different parts of the world have different time for sunrise and daylight at some places last longer. haha... So that's the reason why i can have 2 sunshines. haha...

Anyway the reason why i termed them sunshine is because they have the brightest smiles i ever seen! So every morning i love to greet them good morning at STC. They brighten up my day! HA!

But now i'm gonna graduate from STC soon, so will gonna miss those sunny smiles!

Anyhow, i heard from Violet that the other sunshine gal knows how to salsa. WOW... haha... i'm in luck man! must "jio" her go Union Square one day! But then she has got a BF lah, in Japan. Duh... why all the gals i'm interested in are all taken ah? My Alpha male status is diminshing. Dammit! haha...

But then like Ah Bee said, "if it happens it happens..." haha... does it applies to someone with a bf? After all love is about fate and chemistry. So should u actually say no, even if it might be a better choice. I'm not saying i should snatch someone else's girlfriend. But should u stay with someone just because it's the politically correct thing to do, or should u pursue your own happiness.

Actually what i think is, the whole world can call me a bastard, but if i'm able to be happy and bring happiness to someone, that's good enough! Because, U can stay with the person till u get married and not let anyone down but ultimately suffer the consequences. That explains why there are so many unhappy marriages and divorces. In love u answer to yourself and no one else.

"For better and for worst" only applies to 2 loving people, the only unconditional love is from a loving parent. They are the only people who will love u even if u dun like them. Well ofcoz there are those WTF type of parents, but they most probably do not know what is love to begin with.

If u dun agree with me then there is nothing i can do, u can say i bastard, so be it lor, coz ultimately it's my happiness and not anyone else's. Right and wrong varies from society to society and with the times. For people still living within their own hourglass, it's time to grow out of it!

I will not break up a someone else's relationship, but if someone chose me as her better choice, i wouldn't say "no" if i think it's true. And if in the future my gf decides to leave for greener pastures, i wouldn't hold her back coz this is her happiness. If u care for someone u will want that person to be happy! What's the point of having that person if u do not have the person's heart.

Alright, that's all i've to say. Yes, i'm still single but not without a choice. This choice allows me to choose my happiness. I'm not picky, just that i dun want to jump into a relationship with someone i have no feeling for only later to tell her i dun love her. The love for someone is not powerful enough for that someone to love u back!

Love is a 2 way thing and it doesn't produce an echo, doesn't reciprocrate. It's more like talking on the phone with your best friend. Well. unless u like talking to the wall and waiting for an echo. If u Shout loud enough u might get your echo, but then again, by shouting u would have drowned the echo. Get the point?

But seems like many Singapore gals love to fall into this love trap. Lucky u if can think for yourself. I think they watch too much TV serials already! haha... Er... but seems like the newer generation of guys seem to be catching on with the trend as well.

haha.. TV is bad. Or maybe they should watch more Korean drama.

U know korean drama always have a trangular love story in it and someone must die of terminal illness. I think this morbid fact is closer to real life.

Life is not a bed of roses.

SO stop dreaming, wake up, open your eyes and u might see SUNSHINE!
Muahahahaha...

 

Back!
haha... Errr... actually i was back last weekend. Last friday night, 8pm plus actually. Just that within the week i was either too tired, too lazy, or no time to blog at all.

Oh, anyway it has been 1 full year of blogging, with lots of bitching, gossiping, cursing and Kao Pei-ing. No harm was intended actually, just that i wanna air my frustration for that day. So please pardon me if i may say something insensitive or something u may not like. Coz at that point of time, that is how i view things. I'm not a sensitive person, so i dun usually take offence. So if something that can cause me to curse and swear, it means it's really bad.

So, one week away from blogging and here are some updates.

1st to 3rd Nov was my AKL flight. I should say it was really an enjoyable flight. Everybody were friendly, no bitching and stuff, although i should say the 9 hours plus flight really wore me out when we landed. I actually suggested to Azim that we go sleep for an hour then hit town for sightseeing and shopping.

Haha... But turns out that once we reached the hotel room we slept all the way! Too damn tired! But at least i managed to shower as compared to some days back home i actually fall flat on bed and passed out till the next day! ha!

Joanna called around 5 plus in the evening to invite Azim and me to join her group for dinner. Er... i think it's Joanna coz i'm still half asleep. haha... sound like her though. But it's actually very nice of her though, coz we're more junior so we should initiate the invitation.

Caught a few more minutes of shut eyes before dragging ourselves out of bed, get changed and meet the rest at the hotel lobby to catch the 6:45pm shutter bus to the city. We were there before 6:40, unfortunately the bus was full and it left without us. So we took the cab in the end.

Dinner was chinese food! Amazing right? Go Aukland to eat chinese food! but it was not bad. Aukland has got chinese community so naturally there would be chinese food! They have korean community as well and there is this entire street full of korean restaurant, just that we got no timne to visit all of it.

We order a whole salmon, one side of it fillet and made into sashimi while the other served steamed. The sashimi was damn nice can, so fresh leh. Then when the other side arrived, we got a shock man! THE SALMON WAS SO DAMN HUMONGOUS, we actually ask for the smallest u know! It's about slightly more than 3/4 the length of my arm! I can imagine using that to slap someone! haha...

It looks damn small in this pic, but it was actually damn huge lor!

haha... Best part, we asked if there was any smaller ones! haha... The waitress was like giving us the "duh" look... haha.... This was like the smallest. So how big do u think the biggest is? Think i can have it for dinner, supper and breakfast and maybe lunch.


After dinner we went to grab some wine before heading back and gathering at Seyu's hotel room for drinks and chat. Someone opened a bottle of Cloudy Bay, not bad leh, but it cost NZ$39 also, haha... but i supposed it would have cost close to SGD$50 back in Singapore.

I opened a bottle of Shiraz Cabernet coz i thot it would be appropriate, since everybody was there to have fun, everybody should chip in. Anyway wine should always be enjoyed with good company. If u drink alone is damn sad man! We stayed around till about 1am before we decided to call it a night and head back to the hotel room!

That morning before the flight out of AKL, i realised we have not taken any pics so took some last minute pics from our hotel room! There was this building across the street which i really liked. I think it's a restuarant or something like that.


And there was the nice toilet! Personally i think the toilet play the most important part in any hotel room. U can have nice bed, big rooms but without a classy toilet, it just won't complete a 5 star hotel!

Haha... Sorry u all can't see much here as it appear my photography skills really sucks. haha...

The flight back was as good as the one there. Oh and i bought back a bottle of that Cloudy Bay. It's Chardonnay lah actually. hee... lucky this trip was 48 hours and above, if not i won't be able to bring any wine back.

Then Last Sunday i managed to catch a movie with Kennnnnnn Chngggggggg... We caught THE GUARDIAN at GV Plaza. haha... Saw Kenn Chng on msn then turned out we both got nothing to do so we met up for lunch and movie. During lunch we chatted about the good old days back at Hendon and update on all the latest happenings.



Sorry if any of u all were free but weren't invited coz it was an impromptu decision. We just made the decision on the spot and left the house liao. But i did managed to call Foo Ji Kun, but he wasn't free. Kenn called someone also lah. haha... But in the end, there u have it, just me and Kenn Chng only.

Stupid Foo Ji Kun, said wanna ban me from future outing coz he said i can join my colleagues at dbl O but can't join them at Serangoon Gardens for dinner the last time. haha... Lucky Fong still invite me! haha...

But turns out that last night Fong, Foo and TJW went into JB for Seafood dinner and we weren't invited! haha... Private party ah! "Bo Jio"! U all good, we'll remember! haha...

But even if last night they did "Jioed" me go, i would not have went as i've fallen asleep before 10pm. It was a damn shag day yesterday lah. But that's not the point! haha... The point is still "Bo Jio"! FOO JI KUN! i remember u! haha... Anyway last night Ken and Leonard "jioed" me to butter factory lah, but i didn't go coz i was already in dreamland.

Damn sad man, sleep so early, but might be a good thing after all coz seem like i'm broke already, waiting for my allowance to come in so i can survive till my next pay comes in.

Oh Dammit... I forgot to pick up my jacket from the laundry again! looks like got to go pick up early tomolo morning! I think amongst everybody else i got the cheapest dry clean deal! haha... $7 for jacket! Save on my Laundry allowance so i can spend elsewhere! Muahahahahaha...
