Deviations

I've been spending most of my time at deviantART .. and thus have been neglecting my new blog. Haha. San Fen Zhong Re Du.

Spent yesterday at my mum's friend's place. Played Diablo I with a sec 1 kid beside me constantly dishing out unsolicited advice and going "i told you so" when my character dies. Came to a point when i turned to him and went "what did you tell me?", or "are you sure you said that?". Haha, but he's my god-brother, of sorts. His sis' is my mum's god-daughter, doesn't that make him my god-brother? I don't know. Poor guy, he's a little slow, over-sheltered, over-protected and .. weak. Pray to God that he improves with age man. His sister is another matter. Spoilt too, over-protected too, but shrewd, bright and insolent to the bone. A liar and a bully. She was such a sweet little girl when i saw her 2 years ago.

Parents, spank your kids. Parents, a child getting dirty and scratched up while playing is perfectly normal. He won't break any bones. Even if he does, it'll heal. Let him play.

Eh, you really have to check out my photo-manipulations over at deviantart. This one took 4 hours, 12 to 4am. This is my favourite. Haha, what am i talking about, i only have two.

My books have been neglected, and i have so many books to go through. Ah. My work has been neglected.

Going to tioman on monday.

Food .. glorious, glorious food

Any of you visited the cafeteria at the IRA building in Novena? My cousin, together with his parents, run a yong toufu cum laksa stall there. Had lunch at the cafeteria today with my mum and sampled their food, yum. yum, yum, yum. Of course I was already hungry by the time I started eating, and it helps that it was free, but well that takes away 2 "yums" leaving you 2 unbiased"yums".

And, the single desperate females, or the eye-candy seekers can hrms, enjoy(?) the sight of my handsome 22 year old cousin prepare the yong toufu for you. Haha. I swear, I saw office girls smile shyly at him while paying and collecting their order. I think it's his serious expression while preparing the yong toufu that's attractive. *shrug*, income tax workers should be boring and desperate. Generally speaking of course. I mean, how much excitement can one derive from working in IRA right. I don't know. Don't shoot me.

Dinner was once again, yum. Ate zhi cha at a kopitiam along macpherson road, not exactly the most glamourous place to have one's dinner but throw in black pepper crabs, giant steamed fish, lou hiam, garlic prawns, hor fun, stewed vegetables and longang dessert, and you get one happily fed and satisfied Shaun. Fabulous. Gorgeous. Glorious. Food. Ah .. good food makes me happy.

Okay, end of crappy entry about food :D

Spidey 2

Just came back from watching Spiderman 2. Wow. It's really refreshing to watch a super hero movie where the superhero's identity is revealed! Wow. Unlike in Smallville, where it's damn furstrating seeing the whimp Clark Kent come close to telling Lana Lang the truth - that he's superman, and something happens to change his mind. Or how everytime he promises Lana Lang that he'll turn up somewhere, like her birthday party for example, something "crops up" - disturbance, in spidey's lingo, that delays him. Or them for that matter. Except that in Spiderman 2, the truth was revealed! The look on MJ's face when she saw that Spiderman was Peter was .. haha, priceless?

And the train scene where the train passengers stood between Spidey and Doc. Oct was so touching my tear ducts threatened to betray me. Finally see a superhero being appreciated. "He's just a kid.."

Peter's boss, the newspaper editor or something, is hilarious. What's another word for hilarious apart from funny? Should check a thesaurus one day, and maybe when I'm at that, I'll check if i spelt thesaurus correctly. :)

Okay thats all. I hope I didn't spoil the show for any of you. But seriously, Spidey 2 has been screening for quite some time now hasn't it? If you haven't caught it by now, shame .. shame. Unless you were away in China like me of course. Haha.

Ta.

Phew. Finally, I'm Blogging again.

Hey .. I'm back. I must be getting old and useless, setting up this blog almost drove me nuts. Registering an account was easily enough. Then came the figuring out how to post photos, which required a download of "hello bloggerbot" or whatever it's proper name is. Oh, I must say I'm pretty impressed with Bloggerbot's ability to instantly publish photos on one's blog. What's that poseur slang for that? Nifty? Yeah. Nifty.

Editing the CSS of a default template took me .. um, I came home at two, so that makes it, wow, 3 hours. And to think I registered a Blogger account because I was lazy to blog manually like I used to;editing the html files, uploading through ftp server, and clicking "overwrite" when prompted. Ah well, hopefully I make full use of this blog and rant to my heart content. For two months at least. Damn. Entering NS soon.

Okay, so what's in store for my blog visitors, if any. Damn. Most of my friends are either in Tekong or otherwise occupied. Ah church friends. Those kiddies in church like blogging. Haha. Hello Kiddies.

Back to the grand tour. On the top of my blog, my narcissism is on display. They say a picture paints a thousand words, so by displaying not one, but three photos of myself, in extra large size, I guess that loudly proclaim "I LOVE MYSELF!". Haha. Actually I just happen to stumble on to here and after being mesmerised by her photo art, decided to meddle a little with photo manipulation myself. That "little" translated into hours, hours of work on the only high-res photo of myself i could find. Why only half a face? Someone's hair was obscuring my other half. No choice, had to crop. I wanted to give myself a Vampire Armand look, but decided that I looked gay enough without lipstick. Shouldn't aggravate things. :) Hey, they don't have emoticons in Blogger? Hrms.

Oh I digressed again. The right side bar will be updated periodically with the names of the books that I'm reading at the moment, the music I listen to, websites I visit, one or two ego photo shots, and "Space" where i put whatever the fuck I want :) Our government encourages flexibility and thinking out of the damn box, so I have "Space" where I can think within the box, an approximately 100*100pixels box.

Expect photos, lots of photos. Bread - If.mp3 if a picture paints a thousand words, why can't i paint you?

Expect song lyrics, random prose, boring rants, and anything I feel like posting. I'm hungry. Incredibly hungry. Scrunchy ate half a pizza more than me today. That greedy girl. Now the food's digested, and my stomach's just a empty pit. now you're gone, and my life's just a rainy day

Going out with Jianming, his bro, and Glenn for Spiderman 2. I know, it has been out for ages, but I just returned from a month-long stay in Shanghai. So shuddup. :) Ah I miss the massages in Shanghai.

Dinner, dinner beckons. Read today's Garfield strip. Hilarious. Okay, not hilarious, it's pretty funny.
Calvin and Hobbe's my favourite. favourite. favourite. Oh, I'll use Hello BloggerBot to share some strips with you guys. You're welcome!

Turrah.
