Upsetting

Thursday, July 19th, 2007

I actually wanted to start writing about my bday weekend (it’s nearly a week since the celebrations) but I got pretty upset today. Actually, it’s coz of the plane crash in Sao Paolo. I normally am very disattached to crashes and stuff happening around the world, occasionally being interested only for the sake of being curious; but the plane crash in brasil suddenly jolt me and made me worried. Why right?

I know this sounds silly but I have a few frens staying in Sao Paolo right now and they live in the city centre. Sigh. So i quickly messaged two of them (coz i know for certain the other one is now in Spain at the moment) to find out if they were ok. Somehow or rather, i just felt like one of them was connected to the crash and was very very worried.

Thank god this fear was of no grounds. I found out that, yes, one of them WAS connected to the crash! It was just coz he was working for the company whose plane crashed. AND he was ACTUALLY working in the building next to the crash! OMG!!!!! Two of his frens were in the next building and they were unfortunately killed in that incident.

i know it sounds bad, but i was soooo relieved to hear my fren was lucky enough not to be in that building. sigh. Tat’s why i’m pretty upset. I know life and death is inevitable, just that sometimes it hits pretty ‘close’ to u that it draws your attention to the fact that life is so fragile.

And that is why we should enjoy our life to the fullest.

Teenagers- My Chemical Romance

Friday, July 6th, 2007

Sorry to keep posting, but i LOVE this song

They’re gonna clean up your looks
With all the lies and the books
To make a citizen out of you
Because they sleep with a gun
And keep an eye on you son
So they can watch all the things you do

Because the drugs never work
They’re gonna give you a smirk
‘Cause they got methods of keepin’ you clean
They’re gonna rip up your heads
Your aspirations to shreds
Another cog in the murder machine

They said all teenagers scare
The living shit out of me
They could care less
As long as someone’ll bleed
So darken your clothes
Or strike a violent pose
Maybe they’ll leave you alone, but not me

The boys and girls in a clique
The awful names that they stick
You’re never gonna fit in much, kid
But if you’re troubled and hurt
What you got under your shirt
Will make them pay for the things that they did

They said all teenagers scare
The living shit out of me
They could care less
[Teenagers lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

As long as someone’ll bleed
So darken your clothes
Or strike a violent pose
Maybe they’ll leave you alone, but not me

Ohhh yeah!

They said all teenagers scare
The living shit out of me
They could care less
As long as someone’ll bleed
so darken your clothes
Or strike a violent pose
Maybe they’ll leave you alone, but not me

All together now!

Teenagers scare
The living shit out of me
They could care less
As long as someone’ll bleed
So darken your clothes
Or strike a violent pose
Maybe they’ll leave you alone, but not me

Oh,Teenagers scare
The living shit out of me
They could care less
As long as someone’ll bleed
So darken your clothes
Or strike a violent pose
Maybe they’ll leave you alone, but not me

Ron Got Muttoned

Monday, July 2nd, 2007

Ok. This will not be as funny as compared to if you hear it first hand from me (or the victim, Ron). Mwahahaha

Anyway, 98.7fm’s "Muttons in the Morning" has this segment where you need to prank call your fren (DIY style) and if you do it successfully, you will win a free phone. I’ve been listening to it for some time now and thought how fun it would be to prank call Ron and even better to win a phone lah. hahha.. So i was just waiting for the moment.

Over the weekend, Ron got his official first pay cheque and was very happy about it. Treated me to a great German lunch and all lah. Yum yum! At the end of the day (like we do most of the time), we calculate our expenses just to ensure that everything is in order.

So anyway, he passed me his atm card to go withdraw some money to put into my account to do some internet banking and all lah. It so happen, this morning, on the way to work, the Muttons called for anyone interested to prank their frens to sms in. First time i hear the call for SMS wor, so i decided, ok, today i shall try to ‘mutton’ Ron by telling him that all his hard earned cash somehow was gone.

Wah, i got picked leh. They called me, we discussed strategy and soon i was on the air. They called Ron. Convo something like that lah (try to imagine me in my really desperate, angry voice)

Ron: Hello

Ming: Hello, where are u?

Ron: Still at home. Why?

Ming: U know u asked me to withdraw the money right?

Ron: Yea, why? (kancheong sounding a lil)

Ming: I wanna ask u ah, did u spend on anything that i didn’t know of over the weekend?

Ron: No ah, why?

Ming: I can’t draw your money out.

Ron: HUH? What you mean?

Ming: There’s no more money in your account. Are u sure u didn’t spend on something i didn’t know of? (Sounding Angry)

Ron: HUH? U gotta be kidding!!! What did they say when u couldn’t draw the money?

Ming: Well, u know when u just put in the card then put in the amount u wanna draw? So they said cannot draw lah. So i went to the account balance and found out you were left with $18! WHAT did u do with the cash? (Angrier now)

Ron: HUH? WALAU EH. NO ah. I din do anything! How come? U gotta be kidding!!!!! WALAU EH (no expletives, dun worry.. heng ah!)

Ming: After i left on Friday night, did you spend on ANYTHING or not?

Ron: No leh. I Swear! I dunno wat happened (Panicking a lot now!)

Muttons: But you promised to buy me a diamond ring mah

Ron: No ah……

(Laughter)

Ron: Who’s this????

Muttons: Ron, we are the Muttons. U are on radio!

(Laughter)

Ron: It’s NOT funny!

(Laughter continues)

Ron: It’s NOT funny! I’m never ever gonna listen to 98.7fm or the radio ever again! I’m not gonna eat mutton or lamb!

(Laughter continues)

Muttons: Ron, you win a Motorola Slvr phone!

Ron: Woohoo. (now happy!)

LOL.
