the one about ME & MY POEM..

Fwah-wa-bung-a... I got a POEM/RAP with me as the subject. Here's how it goes...
--------------
Sigh...pris pris
Always in a crisis
Worry too much
At anything at large

All your life's set to make their bow
pris pris the time is now!
Betta get ready fast
Memories can step aside at last
Their pathetic showing confined to the past
The stage is urs
Bask in ur limelight
Show all ur vanity might
For now, make yourself the prettiest sight
Start to eat less lest ur clothes get tight (ok i don't mean that. Eat MORE.)
Cos u might lose the fight
Don't get me wrong,

You're gonna look great no matter what
I'm a freetinker but you are our new religion
Idols to the entire nation
Our emancipation
The brand new sensation
Even thor will bring the thunderation
Oh wait i said you're our my new religion
Ain't allowin any norse gods entrance
Thor can go suck it Twisted Evil
Just like your previous half
He mite not screw up
though i secretly hope he Fs-up!
And those his kind aint gonna measure up.

All your friends are backin ya
Prop u up high
Cheer up and steal the show,

pris heading to a new high
Enjoy yourself with your new guy!
---------

Thanks Jason. It makes me smile..

the one about eat till you pop

Ever since i started working, Fridays are ze most happening days in my week. This was what went on last Friday. Read more at Jo's site to know why we ate till we popped

Saw this really nice collage that Jo did. The collage is so nice I just had to rip it and paste it on my own blog. Jo i link back to your site! Dun comprain me to police/blogger ah.



the one about foot reflex session

For a long while. This was a first in many weeks that we (uncle tan + me) actually woke up early during a weekend @ 9am.

We were both suppose to wake up even earlier and head for mackers breakfast before heading to this really fantastic Foot Reflex place at Ang Mo Kio Ave 1. But 9am was the best we could clock. =p

Perhaps a little background about this amazing foot reflex shop.
I think it is they are one of the best masters in tiny Singapore. I used to go there often when i was with my ex-bf. And then when we broke up, i did not have the contact of that place so my visits stopped there and then. Even though i could have easily made a trip to get their name card, laziness prevented me frm doing so and also walk-in customers are usually not entertained, so if i were to travel all the way there without a good rub to my soles, will be really pointless and sad. They are so popular that hoping to get your feet massaged by them as and when you like is rarely possible, it is usually BY APPOINTMENT ONLY.

So coincidentally, last wed when i met my cousin for dinner, he was telling me that his company just organized a mass foot massage session for them and how amazing those reflexologist are, going on and on about how they can pin-point all his symptoms just by applyin pressure on the various acupoints on his feet bla bla bla and before i know it, *ting* i got the number of the AMK foot reflex. So the following day, while i was in the midst of telling of Uncle Tan how great this place is, we made a booking for Sat morning.

Even though there's alwiz the doubt of such massages and their benefits. For some they might think we are crazy to pay to be tortured (it gets painful at certain area) but I like to think that foot reflex is like taking vitamins, no one really know how we can exactly benefit but we just take it to mentally tell ourself we are doing our bit to enhancing/boosting whatever we feel our body needs. As was shared to me by the reflex uncle, every one will react differently post-massage. For me so far after every session, i will always be burping and farting.. So this time round i burped and fart as usual, but the indication that foot reflex does work is, right after my session, i needed to SHIT! Somehow all the rubbing on my sole made my not so productive intestines active again.
I had already constipated for 3 days and have gave up trying to defeceate myself and 15mins right after the session, i had a huge urge to answer nature call. I was relieved! :)

Another reason why i love this place is, the moment you step in, you will see that the massage shi-fus are all guys, looks really professional and the decor is bright and clean.
Such places are relatively rare in singapore now, especially with the influx of neighbourhood spa/beauty/massage centres sprouting out everywhere.

Uncle and i have accidentally stumbled upon one such place once. The person massaging our feet were china ladies, who were called to the shop when we were there. The lady tending to me was wearing a low cut top that conveniently showed her clevages. I tink she's hoping that her showcase will distract people from noticing that she know nuts about foot reflex. Then when she was tending to me, she had this perpetual "buay song" look on her face and when i tried to smile to her, she looked away and when some other male client leaves the shop, she will unabashly say 'come back next time...must ask for me la...*smile smile*' . Really ah.. Face so scunch up already still so hiao. Ultimate ickish people.

So this Foot Reflex place is where you can get the most authentic foot reflexology experience.
The rates:
For 30mins --> $30
For 45mins --> $35
For 60mins --> $40

The address:
Will update again

the one about getting a new phone!

Being a pro Nokia person, an ex-Nokia Ambassador and a Nokia user since day one of owning a mobile phone. I will now proclaim that the loyalty has been shaken.

I am switching to a Sony Ericsson! Question will just be which one?


Being in my current company, buying a phone will be deemed as silly as we often get the latest phones from mobile manufacturers whenever we are involve with their promo campaigns. But as the phones we have are usually prototypes with the lousiest possible software installed. User experience usually = -10 or worse.

I'm currently using the huge chunky N91, the ads alwiz say its very good, got 4GB memory, can listen to thousands and thousands of songs. I bet you never heard them mentioning this speacial feature where your messages take 1 min to be sent out and has this lagi more amazing capability that will automatically restart your phone after the msg is sent and the best thing is.. this auto restart capability works for almost every function that you use!
Some other disadvantage of free lousy buggy phones, i never had the metality to take proper care of them. Sometimes when a phone disses me off real bad, i will hit it on surfaces hoping that the shock can help make it function better. Hehe.

I think Nokia has a real huge issue to solve, yes they have darn good marketing teams to maximize their distribution and revenue returns but ultimately, no matter how good and strong their marketing and branding are, with no product to back all these efforts. It will still be game over for them akan datang.

So Goodbye Nokia... I had enough of nonsensical breakdowns...

I will be a proud new owner of an SE phone soon... but again which one...cool white bondsie k800i or sleek, alluring Z610i :)

the one about my weekend...

After my pissed off post. My Friday turned out pretty fine afterall.

After all the rejections, Thankfully I had Ben, who was sporting enough to go singing with me, even though it was just two of us. Being a musically talented dude ever since i knew him, he did a really good rendition of Jay's song - which is quite rare to find and surprised me by reading chinese, from what i remember he used to be a KAN TANG person.. and so anyway we sang the night away.

On to Saturday...my weekend was burnt by agreeing to help a friend at the singtel Christmas Fair.
It's was like any normal roadshow i used to do back in poly days. Only this time, i was dead tired after 2 days of constant standing

i think i am old, withering and aging. I used to stand for up to 10 hours per day and be all ready to attend school the following day but this time, at the end of Sunday, i was totally beaten.

After the show, i went for a sumptous dinner with my Cousin (Jerlin, Jolene and their respective friend), Lionel and Ernest at East Coast Food Centre. We had a real feast, ordering everything that is yummy - We had Sambal Stingray, Cockles, Chicken Wings, Sambal Sotong, Oyster Egg.... very satisfying, thinking of it now makes me hungry again.
We used to hang out at ECFC very often when we were younger, so most of the dishes we ordered was similar to what our parents used to order except this time the adults werent around. So thanks to them, we knew exactly which were the good must-haves in the food centre.

So i went home after dinner, bathe and concussed. For the first time in a long while, i fell asleep immediately once my head touched de pillow and i slept all the way till noon this mornin. Shoik
Had lunch with Ernest, got to work at 2-ish. And left work at 7-ish, still feeling somewhat refreshed. Which is so rare! But i like that feeling :P
