went out with the guys today.
family ktv @ chinatown..
really affordable. only $10.
includes 5 hrs and free flow drinks.
xD
had dinner at chinatown..
den we went to m'square and idle.
grabbed a bite at gelare's..
and we called it a night.
but not before i went to get..
a copy of olivia's
a girl meets bossa nova 2
its under hmv most wanted.
whee.. =x
i guess our lives are all connected.
somewhere. sometime. somehow.
thats the reason
why we're curious about each other.
blogs. friendster. facebook.
they bring us closer.
but yet further apart.
the shrinking world..
coerces us to bury our true self.
as we become more publicly available.
publicly vulnerable.
in fear and in self preservation..
we hide ourselves deeper within.
beyond layers of our false pretenses.
some deep that sometimes..
we cannot even grasp..
our true existence.
abby intro me to this fab artiste.
thanks so much...
she has a heavenly voice.
her "sometimes when we touch"
should be playing in here. =)
or listen to her album..
i added the lyrics below..
see under sidebar > show/hide lyrics
also added lightbox 2 to the blog..
click on pics in 'the dell has landed'
bugs lemme know.
=)
my baby is running good now..
managed to fix most problems..
esp with the isapi/php/apppool
which was very very irritating..i'm such a genius
thank GOD for the wisdom.
=)
brainwashed my baby.
reformatted it a while ago.
stupid vista and iis 7.0.
vista corrupts after updates..
so u cannot adjust windows features.
pissed.
NOTE: i just realize after posting..
dat this pic looks like its from..
star wars - the kitty empire
iis 7.0, vista and .net..
doesn't play well with each other.
and my baby can't get service pack 1
which means no fastcgi for php.
see? no fastcgi support.
i feel like downloading sp1 standalone.
worried it fries my drivers tho. =(
okay anw, in english..
i was frustrated cos this component..
called iis 7.0.. won't install.
read forums and online help for hours.
i nearly screamed.
deep in despair.. i started praying.
amazingly GOD seems to have a way.
even with the hopeless vista.
i did a factory image restore
and tried iis 7.0 again...
tada! it worked!
=)
really, thank GOD!!
now off to fix my php.
using the old skool isapi method.
=/
my baby is finally here.
one day late, but still..
*super adrenalin rush*
okok.. let the pictures talk.
the brown box it came in..
more stuff inside..
the really pretty box
containing all the accessories..
creative earphones.
i didn't know it came with dat.
*pleasantly surprised*
my baby..
inside the oyster..
the cds and manuals..
oh. and a remote control!

GOD. this really sucks.
they cover u up with blankets..
cover your face with a paper towel..
.. spread instruments on ur chest.
den.. 'mr. thomas we're going to start'
metal. drills. tools. pipes. threads.
each had their turn to inflict damage
in my oral cavity.
now i'm reeling from the pain.
i suddenly have a great respect.
for those who gone ahead of me.
and endured this.
and ate again.
i'm craving subway. sh*t.

original post

they had to hold it in their mouths..
run.. and put it into another plate.
omg.
oh.
worms anybody? =x
ok ben thats sick.
the minefield game..
ewww. yucky gooey stuff.
there u go.

one satisfied customer. =p
lunch time!
survivor agape 2008. =)
went to st. wilfred field today..
soccer with my platoon.
okay i rarely play.
in fact, almost never.
so obviously i suck at it.
thankfully my platoon understands.
got terribly sunburnt. =(
anw after that me + dad
went to ikea to get my furniture.
hmm lucky i was prepared.
more or less decided.
so after a quick browse..
we went to the self-serve section.
now den i know how much it sucks..
to have to carry your own boxes
of flat, prepacked furniture,
even though we had trolleys.
some were (real) heavy.
took both me and dad to manage.
i wonder how petite ladies would fare.
end up still had to use two trolleys. =/
we figured ikea delivery would be good.
thankfully nvr borrow johan's van.
its not the driving or loading.
its the unloading and carrying up to my hse.
there were like.. 12 or more pieces in all.
anw i can't wait to see em assembled.
hehe. *excited*
lost love is still love.
it takes a different form, thats all.
you can't see their smile
or bring them food
or tousle their hair
or move them around a dance floor
but when those senses weaken
another heightens
memory.
memory becomes ur partner.
u nuture it. u hold it. u dance with it.
life has to end.
love doesn't.
~ the five people you meet in heaven
mitch albom
i love you. always & forever.
=)
i'm expecting my new baby soon.

and feeding it to sy and han.

nursing my recurrent flu + fever..
my 4th episode in 3 months. =(
friday
met hm for movie + dinner..
went ps to catch..
what happens in vegas.
it had an excellent plot..
quite funny.. but expected ending..
but because of cameron diaz..
i'm giving it like 5 glittering stars.
=p
after the movie went shopping..
looking for mother's day presents..
den off to dinner at my fav joint..
dan ryan's chicago grill!
it took considerable effort to walk there tho.
but nevertheless still on time.. haha.
anw no matter how little we ordered.
it still seems to be wayyyyy too much..
couldn't finish it all in the end.
we left for home as two bloated pigs.
=x
*burp*
lately i'm going gaga over funny stuff.
first is champagne.
i'm falling in love with this bubbly stuff.
maybe cos of the colbie caillat song..
well, probably not.
my moet bottle looks so... sexy. =x
moet&chandon.. dom perignon..
okay hope this weird craze blows over.
else my pocket is going get hurt real bad.
next funny craze is roses.
i'm amused by everything rosy.
rose decals.. tattoos.. ornaments..
and rose flavoured stuff...
even rose scents and perfumes.
hmm. its so unlike me to like roses.
and the last weird thing is shit vibes.
i'm playing those crap music repeatedly.
paula deanda's easy..
flo rida's low.. and soulja b's crank dat.
omg what is happening to my taste..
=/

i'm never doing that again. =x
the nights were spent shopping + eating..
ximenting and shilin night market..
