Dad + Son
Hiya!
It's been weeks, but here's a little something to keep all of you entertained from my friend Jason. Chatting online on MSN is indeed an adventure for those aged 50 years and above. Jason's nick is New Beginnings (and that's only because he's starting on a new job, or seeking one at the moment.)
Conversation on MSN :

Dileemas, Dileemas
I just got back from an interview with Sony this afternoon and I do not think I fared very well, which is kind of disappointing.
On the other hand, I have a job offer but I do not find it appealing. I reckon it's a tough decision to make but at this point of my life, I do not want my career to be spiralling off in a wrong direction - although I do need the money rather urgently.
I seriously do not know what I should do at this point of time. And I dun enjoy not being employed.

Actually I found this on mrbrown.com (so credit goes to you!). It shows the latest fad on a type of candy/lollipop singapore school children are sucking on these days.
Perfectly normal till someone discovered it looks convincely like a dildo, and when you squeeze it, a 'juice' cums, ummmm ..... i mean , comes out at the tip of the lollipop. Have a look at the page and decide for yourself!

- I HATE PUBLIC TRANSPORT -
Nowadays, everyday seems to be a weekend for me. I sleep real late and I wake up real late.
I think I'm a bum.
It doesn't help that cash IS running low. I will have to eat luncheon meat & fried eggs with leftover rice from next month onwards if I do not land myself a job soon
But still somehow I remain positive, for some reason. And the reason - I am not too sure.
This week it will be job finding week once again after last's week search counts at a grand total of zero (told you I was a bum). You know at times like this, you dun really want to meet ANY of your peers on the streets, especially those you have not seen since graduation. It's worst when they pop the question ," So where are you working now?" God knows how many pavements I have buried myself in after that.
But still, job searching is a horrible task. I think every HATES to look for a job because it's a very tiring process. One of those things in life that needs to be done in order to survive unless your dad owns a huge ass business. Mine doesn't.
This weekend however was rather eventful. I went for a interview with Comfort Driving School. God damn it was really far. All the way at Ubi. Obviously not the most creative of industries but there're a good things and at this moment of time, I do not think I have much of a choice. Good thing is that it's part of a huge ass garmen linked company Comfort Del Gro and it's not likely to go down as to what happened the last round. Still I do hear market talk of a possible merger of SMRT. Then again, that's another story.
Towards the evening, I caught Dodgeball with Jerrine, and it was a blast! I was really tired after that and decided to head home as I had not much sleep after Burridge's tech house onslaught at Zouk the night before.
I headed to East Coast Park with Jerrine today and commenced the Beginner's Guide to Rollerblading Lesson Numero Uno. I think she made great progress. If you reading this - WELL DONE!!
Next lesson, we will be doing turns and learning to stop.
Thereafter I am sure we will be doing stair jumpings and rail slidings. Kiddin'. I'm already sensing a thick book on the way to my head. The absolutely worst part of the whole event today was the way back home. I know it's sound mundane but god hell - the bus was cold and the ride took probably an hour weaving through small lanes and wide xpressways passing probably 10,000 vehicles on the journey to the west.
That's why I HATE PUBLIC TRANSPORT.

Today was China's first F1 race held in Shanghai. Natually, I wanted to find out the results as soon as I got home and chanced upon this informative webspace. Turns out current champion Shumi 'crash'ed out at 12th place - a ridiculous low result - although he IS the world champion. Apprantly it was a bad day and he kept spinning and crashing into others. Oh well. Funny thing is even if he loses the Tokyo & Brazil legs, he's still win the title (as you will already know.) I sometimes wonder when will he decide to retire, and let the others have a go. But anyway, back to the site - this site is an excellent resource for global motor car news.
All I need to do now is to dream of my dream car.

I was chatting to a Brazilian DJ who was trying to download tunes from me on Soulseek and I decided to ask him about the scene in Brazil. It seems dominated by Drum and Bass DJs which is kind of weird like DJ Marky. Maybe the famous stars are not spinning that much house music. Anyway, it was kinda funny cause I expected Brazil to be churning out loads odf tribal samba house music. Apparantly not yet. He stays in Sao Paulo and this link is one of the best clubs in the city, so check it out. They have cool desktop downloads too.

Phase 1 - Test Date Oct 2004
Ah ... the thrills of running. Again, it has been a while since I have got down stuff in this blog. It's very weird how time passes. Just one year ago, things were so different. Lots of things have happened in the last 12 months, but you know what - I would rather not talk about it now.
You would know at this point of time , I am currently 'unemployed'
Yes - the dreaded word. Seems to be a bad word in my family. 3 years back, my mom was 'laid off' too. Funny how it seems human resources are always the link to cutting costs.
Anyway, I have managed to gain some headway into Stellar Bookings, the current project I am working on. I am determined to make this venture work! I am also looking forward to organizing some small club parties in November and December.
I think I am getting to grasp the concepts of life again.
Currently super broke, I would appreciate any kind forms of donations if possible. I also offer stripping services to hen nights. Isn't that thought lovely?
Have a brilliant night ahead.

This is an incredible blog website I only managed to find recently (what have I been misssing!). It's a satirical website with lots of references and comments about Singapore and the 'garmen'. The Editor also writes for Today newspapers for a special column. There's loads of info there to read, learn, digest and snigger. Anyway, it's almost 5 am, I'm running out of things to say - all in all, mrbrown.com is worth book marking for future reference.
