I guess I'm still in the queue
And the number seems so distant
But yet the people in front are moving
And I'm still left at the back on the queue

Sometimes when you give your best
It doesnt exactly come back as what you hoped for....
Oh well
My life doesnt have a reset button

Wow
Playboy with the Honda LCR
Looks good seriously!

Anyways today is a day of good sporting activities
Ferrari like FINALLY got a damn point in F1
But Massa drove like....a coconut
Anywho Brawn GP seems to be owning the competition
The double decker diffuser seems rigged
Like can we have an appeal again?
=/

Besides that
I watched the 1st race of MotoGP on TV today!
Great great great race in Japan
Did I mention the umbrella girls are damn kawaii?
Like Japanese kawaii that kind of kawii?
OMG!

Anyways it was a damn exciting race from start to finish
Saw plenty of different modifications to previous bikes
And killer overtaking at S-shaped hairpin corners
Throw in hardcore straightline acceleration
Oh just cant wait for MotoGP S'pore Changi to arrive in 2010
=)



Entertaining stuff for the fight in top 5 places
Not once last season did we have such close competition
Rossi led for like 10+ laps before being overtaken
And Dani Pedrosa climbed around 10 places to challenge
Rossi for 2nd placing
Not forgetting Mr Ducati making a breath-taking
overtaking move on Honda Respol rider
Great stuff man!
And yes the umbrella girls of course!
=p

I think the new Kawasaki Ninja ZX-RR in black is the

meanest machine on the track

If drive at night surely looks damn menacing

I like!

And of course

Who can forget Man United hammering 5 goals in 45 mins?

You need ppl to kick you in the private parts before can wake up

And thats how it goes last night

But 5 goals

5 solid brilliant goals!

Ah

Football at the very best

=D

Still my favourite player in a United jersey
=)

Come on admit it ppl

Who says the ladies are not drooling after Ronaldo scored

and literally tore off his shirt for celebration

At least I know someone does!

Someone who felt it was worthwhile to catch a United match

just because of moments like this!

=p

Day 1

So here we go with the Perth holiday trip entry!



After flying for 5+ hours on the squeezy Jetstar airline
We finally arrived


Jetstar is different from Jetstar Asia btw
Got provided bottled water wor!

Adrian's friend David the Commando Officer came
and pick us up
Hahaha. Same as Taiwan
Always good to have friends in countries you are visiting

And the first thing I noticed when I stepped out from
the airport was the strong blast of icy wind
Feels damn chilling to the flesh
But refreshing indeed!



Checking into our Backpackers suite
Looks kinda "combat" as they mention
But gt personal toilet and breakfast
So its good!



Need to slot in bed sheets and whatsoever
Took some time and it was near 2 plus already
Zzz to the max







Check out the kongfu-style hands
Starved boys gorging on Aussie beef patty
They have more different type of Mac meals than us
Took quite a while to figure out what we wanted to eat




And here's the view out of our room
You can randomly hear and see turbo-charged cars
and superbikes roaring down the road
That's crazy!

Early next morning

After a very filling breakfast of cereals and toasted bread

We went for a walk to the city centre to explore

Fill you guys in on the details of the experience in the

backpackers in further entries

The sun is shining and yet you dont feel hot

But the rays are glaring to the eyes

Weather is cooling and you dont sweat

Ala. Great stuff in Aussie

After walking for 15 mins

We reached the junction

And traffic stopped on all sides before predestrians can cross

And you can literally ANYHOW cross the street

Straight left right up down center diagonal

Cuz traffic HAS STOPPED

Awesome!

Perth's City Hall

Finding similarities

And this is the place whereby I will be meeting Deb later on

And yet another familiar sight

Perth's bell tower

It's a musical instrument btw
Don't really understand it

We purchased our tix to go down towards South Perth

Its actually quite relaxing

Like seriously

=)

Little kid checking out the longest snake in the world

Biggest lizard in the whole of Australia

And this Jurassic Park lookalike reptile

Ah. My favourite picture

Cute little girl trying to tease the skink
=p

"Mechanical" penguins

They swim around in lap style

And this part of the zoo whereby the birds

walk around randomly

They are like freaking close to you

Can touch them if you reach out

=/

I think Emu is an evil type of bird

Their eyes look evil

Like will shoot laser out that kinda of evil

Eerie open bear cages

And this lazy crocodile

Looks kinda enlarged though

Amazingly its not dead and is 4.5m in length

Thats...close to 3 times of me!

Dingo or bingo?

I think its dingo

Hahaha. Cuz bingo is a game and we go B-I-N-G-O!

Ooops

Hahaha. Dingo looks cute but is fierce

Can keep at home

Then release into my neighbour house to shut the dog up

Cuz it keep barking non-stop at 3am at night

Disturb my football and sleep

Zzz

Tok-kat Ali!

Or radish lookalike

Somehow I forgot the purpose of this plant though

Australia's finest!

They are freaking close btw

Imagine they boxing you in the face
Plus the Fo-Shan Shadowless Kick

Tsktsk

Not so fun for big size kangaroo

Smaller one jumping across the road is fine

And they used their tail to propel forward

Damn cute

Hahaha. Like quite effortless

See what I mean?

Thats how close they are

Roaming around freely and randomly

Tricia the elephant

Their elephant seems well-trained

Their zoo-keeper also look like zoo-keepers

Ours look like....kinda weird?

Not so sure of our own zookeepers though

Keep thinking about the white tiger incident...

=(

And their trees spurt out cooling water

Ah! Shiok

No wonder its call the rainforest trail

A short break and a group photo!

And Aussie are very environmentally frenly

They protect everything well

Like the Earth Hour is also started in Australia too!

Different types of sunlight absorbers

Or what are they called ar?

Solar panels I think

Different designs for different purposes and used in

different times of the year

Interesting find!

This is the Ah Ming area

Their Ah Ming like to climb high high sit there

Do nothing

Then they will be like human

Use the blanket cover their body when the sun is

too strong

OMG!

Wow! Super duper huge turtle or tortoise

Like crazily huge

And they move quite fast!

And guess what you see next to them?

Ah. Ghost bat

Cool eh!

And this bunch of cute little furry animals

I forgot the names

But they are like so freaking cute

Dig dig dig

Then they dig until where I stand

I thought they were gonna dig through the place

But it was through to the other side of the enclosure...

=.=

If you read the description

Its definitely kinda cool

=)

Sure. King of the jungle

Looks all the way like it

I thought this looks really cute too

Hahaha

So after the zoo, we walked around South Perth

before going back to the city itself

Next up was the Perth Mint

No pics could be taken inside due to too much expensive

and valuable stuff located inside the place

But we got a timing for the tour of the place

We saw gold-pouring in action

And thats pure gold for goodness sake

I like the way the person did the whole act

His commentary was entertaining and useful

Very attention-captivating

And the way a gold bar is made in real life is an

once-in-a-lifetime experience

Awesome stuff!

Plus we got to try and lift a gold bar itself

I thought my wrist nearly snapped

Damn heavy

Some funny old ladies tried their luck and their comments

were damn witty too!

And we got to see the different types of gold bars made

for different countries

Plus all the real Olympic medals for 2004 Sydney

I mean its totally different from the ones you see in TV

Better up close and personal

And my weight worth in gold is

$2,947,128

LOL!

I worth close to $3M sia!!!!

So after the Perth Mint

It was 5pm already

And damn, Aussie after 5pm is....zzz time

Hahaha

So called and met up with Deb at the city hall

This is Deb walking with us back to our backpackers

to get the stuff I lunged all the way from homely S'pore

And her bringing us to a place where there's chinese food

Its a place called Northbridge

And supposedly there's nightlife there

Of cuz with all the strip clubs and what not

Haha. Didnt enter one though

1st day do this kinda of stuff

Like morally not good

Hmmm

So after dinner we walked and walked

And supposedly she said there's things there

And OMG

We walked all the way

For like...20 minutes

And there's....blackness

OMG

Nothing at the end of the street!

Nearly fainted on the spot

Its like quite a ghost town

And all the way she assured me there's definitely things

to be seen or what

But along the way she said she hasnt been at Northbridge walking

=/

So we sent her to her bus station

Talked a lot while on the way there

Seems like Aussie is not such a heavenly place after all

Or should I say its a kinda of different thing to expect from Singapore

Concept, lifestyle, food, culture, expenditure, acadmeics etc

Varies quite seriously

But the good thing is she's still hanging on

2 months only what

Hahaha. But ya, sorry about the lamp though

LOL!

So thats the end of the 1st day

Plenty of pics to upload

But if upload all will die

Somemore is the city only what

Nothing interesting de

Seriously!

Will put more effort into other days entry

Hahaha

Really!

Here's a pic of us!

Me with my tiny eyes and she with her big bag of stuff

Till Day 2 then

=)

En-en-enlistment time!

I thought this week was crazy
Wasnt sleeping brilliantly at all
Been getting insane hours of 4-5 hours per night
Going to work with twice the amount of hours I slept
=(

Ah well. Blame the soccer and computer
But can sleep more once work finishes on next Thursday!
And get to bum around in my life till the 9th of July
Which is enlistment day!

Pulau Tekong
BMTC School 1
9.30am
Same timing and place anyone?

Finally, I thought I was too old to go for army
Oh well, ppl always tell me they are going to protect the soil
on Sunday night as they book in while I go home
And now's the time for me to go protect the soil liao!
Hahaha. Karma strikes back!
=/

Anyways this week was really crazy
Being persuaded to go eat Ajisen
Which was really intimidating
I mean eat a bowl of noodles which cost up to $15
Feel like crying would you?
Meepok add noodles add ingredients also not so ex
=.=

But Friday was great as I met my friends of over a decade


This is Joanne and Zhe Rui

Together we got 36 years of friendship!
Me + Zhe Rui + Joanne = 12 + 12 + 12 = 36 years of friendship

All that was missing was Kai Ling and Leroy only
Ah. Complicated ppl and complicated relationship among us
But its good to see them
Feels "natural" as they mention

Had Jap dinner
Zhe Rui strongly opposed as he just came back from Japan
while I object to fast food as I also just came back from Australia
Now eat some food also need to consider so long sia

Talked till the late night at Big Mac Centre
Solved each other's issues among us
Catch up here and there
Talked cock and interact
Compare our lives in Poly and JC and how far we come
Really natural and smooth-going
With our differences in talking style and lifestyle we led
It's amazing how we clicked so easily
I like
=)


Joanne and Me


Me and my BMT-buddy-to-be

We are gonna go Japan after all that I heard
Mark that after ORD then
Hope by then $S is still stronger than Jap Yen
And hope to meet BoA or Ayumi or Nakata!
Hahahaha!

Left 2 Right 2 Up on the tempo
(Left 2 Right 2 Up on the tempo)
Left 2 Right 2 Ole Ole Oh
(Left 2 Right 2 Ole Ole Oh)
Here we go again
Same oh shit again
Up and down this avenue
Few more minutes we'll be through
Weilo weilo weilo weilo weilo wei ah

Any sweat?
(No sweat!)
How far?
(Not far!)
Till where?
(No where!)
Chicken Feet?
(Haha!)
All the way
杀!

Anyone stood there

Idle

Watching the traffic on the S'pore expressway?

Take a look at the different signboards around

Recognizing and imprinting S'pore roads and routes into the brain

"Beware of falling coconuts???"

Are you kidding me?

Is there such a signboard?

And whose cute bike is that?

Hougang to Kallang?

Been there

Done that

From Bishan too!

Nice HDB blocks facing gorgeous river

With a cool looking bridge too

Somewhere between Toa Payoh and Potong Pasir

Bet you didnt know that

And a jetty for extra brownie points

No wonder HDB blocks costs up to $600,000 nowadays

=/

Compare to this

Little wonders why all the shutters are closed

And everything seems so empty...

The only thing lacking was some cute girls from this place

Jumping out

The school uniform would do great

Excellent in fact!

Ah! Its a great place right?

=p

Exploring Singapore

Part 5

100km completed

----------------------------------------------

林雨宣 - 甜蜜小公主

Some haircuts do wonders

Some haircuts don't

Well in her case, it did!

当机会来领时
只有做好准备的人
才能在那一刻
抓紧而把握
不会轻易让良机错过

When the window of opportunity is
presented right in front of you
Only those who are prepared will be able to take it
Some may need to stretch a bit
Some can just pick it up with little efforts
But all in all
These are the people that will take that opportunity
And definitely make the best out of it




Ah. Graduation is upon us!
Haha. How long have many of us waited for this?

Am glad that I see familiar faces on the list of ppl
getting the awards during NP graduation this year

Ppl like

Zhe Rui
my good friend of 12 years and counting
COM winner and also got an award from TYCO
as in he still say he tyco got it
Hahah. Laugh until pengz
=D

Pei Ling
I still cant believe she passed her TP earlier than me
I was having my revision when I saw her double L plates
Then she still can smiled and got up the slope with ease
Stunning
And I thought she told me she was still having revision la
=.=

Han Kee
Do I need to explain more?
Gold medallist for BMS
In case you didnt know
I think he smoked the closest competitor by miles
5 out of 6 sem got GPA 4.0000
36 hours no sleep incident and go for exam straight
Salutation anyone?
Its a wonder why he never apply for medicine in NUS

All my CBE mates
I tell you what
My class OWN and totally WTFPWNZ the CBE award list
Check out the award list and you would know
We got 5 out of 15 ppl from my class
Power!

And thanks for the congrats from my friends
Totally appreciate it
Like seriously
I can feel sincerity rather than sarcasm
(=

Ppl like JJ, Zhe Rui, Richard and Yasmin (for now....)

Had a damn funny conversation with Yasmin
She say I won the Olympic medal already
Then I told her she won more awards than me
And we should take lots of pics during grad and D&D
But she say she VIP no need register for D&D
LOL!
Plus she asked me need to bring banner and pompom
for me during graduation or not
Hahahaha!
Nearly fell off my chair
I answered that she could do that and I would bring the whistles
and lightsticks for celebration too!
=p

Oh guess what

My parents wouldnt be attending the graduation

And like WTF?

Cant blame them though

But its kinda weird

Damn weird feeling

Kinda unexplainable in my heart and brain

=/

The line between arrogrance and confidence is so thin that
it makes people constantly confused over it





I tell you what

Desire grows when you see someone having
something that you dont have

The key to happiness has to be self-contention

---------------------------------------------------

I like the feeling of feeling my legs crank out repeated
revolutions on the bicycle
Can literally feel blood pumping out through every single
part of my body from my legs to the eyes
At the moment on the roads...
I totally feel alive

Thats why I say...
2 wheels totally smokes 4 wheels

Home

LYJ is back from Australia!

He thinks that it was an awesome trip...
He thinks that the sights and sounds are spectucular...
He thinks that Deborah is still doing fine over there...
He thinks that he drinks too much alcohol on this trip...
He thinks that he hates chips and fries and fried food now...
He thinks that he would receive 3000 pictures...
He thinks that he would blog about this trip in 8 separate entries..
He thinks that kangaroos are super duper cute creatures
and he wishes to import one of them to Singapore so that
it can boing boing boing around his house...
And lastly he thinks...he needs to unpack his luggage and
go to sleep...

=)

Leaving the house in 30mins
Still typing here
Not gonna brag about Man United's win last night
But sure hell
It was glory glory Man United!

You know what makes us United fans support them?
Cuz its the way you should never write us off at the
last few seconds of a single football match
Plus the goals and all-out attack and flamboyant style
Oh. I thought I didnt brag about last night?
=p

Anyways Perth should be good I guess?
Relax
Slow down my life
Singapore is good, but I guess I need to try to see
the world more
After this Perth trip, one more checkbox cleared for 2009
=)

And coming back, I should be recharged
Finish my work at EM
Go to work at other places
(need to network and source soon)
Start running properly
Get fit for NS
=D

Cya when I come back

All in a day of work....

=D

-------------------------------------------------------

Caught the Shinjuku Incident - 新宿事件 on Thursday night
Glad we got ppl who are still at home during this period time

Like not working or just bumming around to help to book tix
*whistles*

Credit and thanks to online booking seriously
(=

So now my review on the Shinjuku Incident...

1st impression: 4 stars

After thoughts: 4 stars

Well, in fact the good thing about this movie is that it keeps

me on the edge of the seat at most part of the show
(not becuz its cold and I need to pee...)

Honestly, some parts are very idiotic

There are loopholes that the director didnt cover up

There are mysteries and questions not answered

BUT

Thumbs up to Daniel Wu!

Damn zai!

Well done on this show!

Jackie Chan just cannot come across as a bad guy

And the bad guy every media is portraying to be is like...

the those villians like Joker or Green Goblin that kind of villian

So not true in this movie

Anyways, go catch this movie if you got interest in great shooting

on the scenes of the Yakuza, their style of work etc,

Chinese illegal immigrants in Japan, fighting scenes, various

languages spoken throughout the course of

the movie & that little tiny bit of storyline

Various ppl have different comments
But I feel this movie is not too bad

Cuz I have interest in the Yakuza background

I like the way the director shot this movie

The various languages used in this movie and

the action of course

Storyline can come as a lower priority for me

Watchable like what newspapers say

Take a pinch of salt for my review though

Go see it for yourselves

(=

--------------------------------------------------------------

Eski Bar on Friday's night with the ExxonMobil ppl

After much consideration....

Those that were involved in the "pouring incident"

So after the drinks were poured

and everyone had a sip or two

Everyone were just sitting there

Waiting for like something to happen

Eski Bar had only plasma screens showing repeat

telecast of the recent international football matches
No live band and very dark

Plus my minor night blindness

Cannot see anything clearly

)=

So after some quiet moments...

Chew Hua taught 猜拳

And Pin Shin was the only one who needs to learn

With plenty of demo and help from the participants

After a couple of drinks later

Weird stuff happen

Jun Yong wearing pink?

And Chew Hua strongly denying that she had a drink too much

Check out her lobster face please

Zoey? Or Zombie?

Anyways she didnt drink much

Just posing for the shot

And we got some dices and cards from Chew Hua's friend

later on in the night

And Wei Suan taught us some card games

Which involved plenty of rules and all the 52 cards

cames into use

Chim stuff there

The bottom line is when all the 4 Kings come out

The loser had to drink the whole glass in 1 shot

Savvy?

And here are the "winners" of the day

Chong Yee

Who claims he is drunk but Wei Suan doesnt think so
since he said Chong Yee can still talk

=.=

And Wei Suan himself

And W.Jie Ying helping Jun Yong to drink

since he was riding that night

And Wei Quan doing the extreme straws rules

And everyone staring at the person who intro the

extreme straw rules

So to conclude for the night...

Chew Hua's face became not so lobster-like

And Zoey's face became pale instead of the usual red

And the scary head figure which Wei Suan was gonna

French kiss if this figure stuck out the tongue

=/

To prove that we are still alive

The bread girl started to do accounting for the bill

Glad we got 15% discount off though

Cheers to Friday night!

(=

--------------------------------------------------------

And now for the picture of the day!

Artistic watermelon!

Zoey went"什么!?" after I told her this was my masterpiece

Cool right?

=p
