so The Amazing Race did something good and stopped casting boring alpha male teams. to fill the void that the absence of the abomination caused, something had to take its place. and actually i think i'd rather see 2 alpha males win than the new breed of winners in recent history - crappy dating couples who get by on the skin of their teeth and only ( Read more... )

it doesn't matter what you wear, it's how you look that matters.

designer threads couldn't save a troll.. but hell, if you were a greek god/dess you could be in rags and still look great. even if there was nothing on you, you'd still be be even more attractive.

of course, this stems from a sad realisation of the way i look.

people shouldn't log on to instant messaging clients if they're not going to be able to reply. granted, one might need to do things while corresponding with others. would it be so hard then, to put a Busy or Away notice? maybe i'm being too particular, but i think there needs to be some sense of online ettiquette and decorum, which seems to be ( Read more... )

sometimes i have morbid fantasies and need to tell myself, 
"shut the fuck up, you're crazy/insane/mad/insert synonym"

although this might appear alarming to some, i appreciate it for 2 reasons.

1. my imagination is still very much fertile, and
2. i still have a conscience.

how i feel, just 2 days before the new year.

I sold my soul for the second time
'Cause the man, he don't pay me
I begged my landlord for some more time
He said "Son, the bills are waiting"
My best friend called me the other night
He said "Man - are you crazy"
My girl friend told me to get a life
She said "Boy - you're lazy"

But I don't mind
As long ( Read more... )

i will be flying off in less than half a day's time, and i'm glad to go because i needed this break. it's been more than 2 years since i stepped onto an airplane and i'm slightly ashamed to admit that i'm more excited about the flight than the trip itself. i guess it's that feeling of leaving behind something. not for good, but for awhile though.

i'm not going to beat around the bush. so yeah, completed my 2 years of service and collected my IC on Friday morning. it was really much more anti-climatic than i thought it would be. partly because of the pseudo-holiday mood that had already been brewing gradually the past few months, coming to a head in November. the bottlenecks at the booths ( Read more... )

on Thursday, i was chased out. the cupboards were closed off, and the doors locked. i took my last shower, last breakfast, etc. in these final days, i'm making the full transit back to a truly personal self and the final stage is set in.... 8-5 work hours?! wtf, nothing to do and they still want us back ( Read more... )

as a child, i slept with my parents. sometimes they'd stay up late and watch movies, while i'd pretend to sleep yet barely peep from under the blanket. somewhere in my subconscious, scary scenes are imprinted because such stuff isn't supposed to be viewed by small children anyway. ok, sometimes i'd catch snippets of those shows while i was legally ( Read more... )

as i hurtle into the last month of national obligations, the quiet caused by the departure of my beloved November friends (and fiends, foes and fuckers) gives me the opportunity to reflect more on things.

i never thought i'd say it, or even admit it, but i miss all of them. well, almost all la. they were supposed to move out on Wednesday. but a ( Read more... )
