it's the beginning of the end of the year.

one random thought. since ruben studdard has been such a flop, i wonder if he'll redo sorry 2004 and rename it sorry 2005 to get another hit based on one single.

wellllll.

blog more tomorrow.

78 days to ord.

well. it's finally all over and hey 2004 has flown by. just like 2003. and so like. christmas is over.

christmas to me is all about carolling, carolling and more carolling. and perhaps trying to be santa this year. i started out initially telling myself not to bother writing cards anymore since the bulk of those i've written over the years have been done under the eyes of those the cards were intended for. but then i decided to buy christmas presents for maybe one or two people. and so i felt it wouldn't be very nice if i didn't get my good friends some presents as well. in the end i bought presents for most of the people around me. even if i do see them only 3 times a year.

as for those who didn't receive anything but a hearty merry christmas from me, i'm sorry but then like love muffins said, i can't really afford to buy a present for a whole clique of friends when i decide to buy one for someone within the clique. so i hope all can be forgiven and maybe if i up my annual income from < $5,000 to > $30,000 next year, i'll be santa to everyone.

and so i tried to get personalised presents for the people around me. i've realised that it's much easier shopping for girls cos they REALLY tell you what they want. and like realistic affordable presents like photo frames or dvds. not like guys who either go 'no need lah' 'anything lah' 'i want a bmw z4'. so to the guys who got generalised items from me.. tell me something proper you want next time lah.

so as it turned out, i hope everyone's happy with their presents.. even though i didn't write any card this year.

as usual we had the reunion carolling finale on xmas day this year. i always felt it was kinda more like chinese new year than merry christmas, the way we go about greeting long lost friends/seniors/juniors. like the relatives you meet once a year u know. i guess it was really. happy. for me lah. i felt good seeing and wishing everyone merry christmas!

and i actually conducted some sessions for christmas carolling. well thanks to all who gave me the chance to, even though it feels like a sabo for some of those who're really sick of conducting, i think i enjoyed it more than ever lah. cos like wah lau those old people actually bothered to follow me and so it's really nice to conduct these zai singers.

ok i realise this post is damn un-chronologically ordered. but i really have damn lots of random thoughts lah.

next i have to thank whoever gave me christmas cards and whoever gave me presents! especially the super duper unexpected trash talking teddy bear from dawn and michael. it's really damn trash talking and i really love it. the trash talking part i mean. not the teddy bear part.

to those i received cards from, i hope i didn't lose any card of yours. but well to the unexpected card givers who probably don't bump around here, thanks a million.

and so christmas has come and gone. in about 5 or 6 days, in jc speak, i'll be a year 5. in less than 3 months, i'll be a civilian again. and in about 8 months, i'll be a student again. how time flies. i'm loving every moment of it.

but i'm actually getting withdrawal symptoms of staying home now. i was home everyday for 3 weeks after my operation. then came carolling. then now i'm home again.

well. i really don't recall anything that's happened this year that i'd change. i am so positive.

and early days for my new year 2005 resolutions.

1. look better/fitter.
2. trash talk alot less.
3. maybe maybe. pick up conducting.
4. find a lover. hahahaha. or find some lovers. : ) .
5. find a wife.
6. commit adultery.
7. don't get caught.

haha ok pieces of shit. more random thoughts then more posts lah.

i've been using a dumb phone since my other phone's been spoilt. and this dumb phone is everything i do not wanna be.

ugly. fat. scarred. dysfunctional. lousy. boring. irritating.

everywhere you see, alexaner the grate is getting slammed.

The Northwest Herald warns that the flick "often seems a couple of heartbeats away from turning into a gay porno film."

read more about it here.

i just caught phantom of the opera the movie. i've never heard the original musical before, but i have to say that this phantom was really 2 hours and 15 mins of mostly bad phantom singing.

oh well. there really isn't much to blog about. but well i'm up waiting for a football match that features a team that i do not favour much. i don't know why. (don't know why i'm not, i know why i don't favour them much.)

i caught the bridget jones' sequel recently. alright like yesterday. it was not bad. i didn't catch the first film so i didn't really get the history between the characters. but bridget is real pudgy. like fat with the double chin and all. i actually think she looks alright with the rosy cheeks but the double chin really does shit to her look.

well at the end of the day the moral of the story is to accept your partner, even ounce of flab on him/her.
