perhaps the life i've always wanted doesn't exist here
or perhaps it's just me being too used to the States. reassessment in a month.
but then again, why do so many people stay abroad after studying abroad? what makes them want to leave their friends and family behind for an unfamiliar life in an unfamiliar place. why my sister chose to stay there after graduation for a grand total of 12 years and counting.
for now,
i know i'm starting to feel why.
i miss being out there.
being in a place that i really enjoyed myself.
show me the ticket and watch me fly.

santa monica beach. overlooking the pacific ocean. i was on the pier and this pelican flew in and walked around the pier. this guy was going to pat the pelican when the resident busker told him not to, said that when pelicans come to the peir, they're probably sick!.. santa monica wrapped up my travels. seagulls flying overhead, dolphins swimming in the sea, pelicans doing the catwalk on the pier, the busker singing "lady in red". sunset, cool breeze.. i'll be back.

Forever
Sorry is all I can offer; hope it means something. Brother to brother, friend to friend, just you, me and honesty, thoughts of the good times and the bad ones. I am here to stay, as long as you want, as long as it takes.
Sorry.
Sorry.

Pink
I took your hand, I showed you how. I promised you I'd be around, that's right. You took my words and you believed..in everything I said to you, that's right. If someone said 3 years from now, I'd be long gone..You'd stand up and punch 'em out..coz they're all wrong..Who knew, better..When you said forever..I knew.
Remember when we were such fools and so convinced but not too cool. You said you wanna touch me again, I wish I could hold you till the end. We'd give anything. When someone said count your blessings now, for they're long gone, we'll stand up and listen to them coz they won't be wrong..Who knew, better..When you said forever..I knew.
I'll keep you locked in my head, in time we meet again..I won't forget you till the end, whatever happens.
If someone said 3 years from now, I'd be long gone..You'd stand up and punch 'em out..coz they're all wrong and..when we kiss..I'll cherish..in time we meet again..Time makes it harder..I will always remember..I keep our memories..I visit you in your sleep..My darling..I knew.
This song should have a happy ending.

Kuala Lumpur
3 friends set out on a never before tried journey to watch the world cup finals on big tv in KL. Malaysians sure know how to party hard man..A giant projector screen was set up in open air, there was loud music, throngs of malaysians gathered in the heart of KL to dance and sing before the finals..something you don't see in Singapore
Jon and Ahmad.
We decided to go to Beach Club to watch the finals..only to discover, to our horror, that the club CLOSED AT HALF TIME (3am)..WTF?!?!?! From there we proceeded to nearby kopitiam to finish watching the match
Tuesday morning before leaving KL, we were damn shacked..both nights slept for 3 hours..drink lots..puked lots..so we ate little, i didn't have anything else to wear besides that t-shirt which i slept in..hur hur
One minute of KL

in an instant
its been a long time since i last blogged.
yesterday was the last day of work, had mixed emotions of happiness and sadness. happiness because work was tough and i was just glad that work's finally over. sadness because there are great friends in my ride and i'm probably not gonna see them ever again. had a mini farewell at my ride yesterday and took pictures all round. will post them up in a bit.
its sunday noon now, and will be leaving for los angeles 6am monday morning. it seems like the end of the journey is drawing near. time has past by so fast ! it almost seems magical. so many things has happened here and back home, and i feel like i've stood still here (as mark says). good things bad things..
work and travel would be an experience never to be forgotten. time spent with lee lam and poh. chillin out playing thumbs in the room at 2am.. shopping at short pump.. eating chipotle (chips) at the patio.. bitching about m-dubs, chinz, russians.. watching all the movie poh watches in a year (4-5?) shes the man, x3, da vinci, pirates and mi3 that i missed.
now its packing time. must squeeze all the new purchases into the limited space i have. nevermind.. can be done..

Lolita.
My hall seniors at the hall bbq..green guy in the centre is ex-hall king turned hall orientation chairman..he has my utmost respect..i will follow him till the ends of the earth to get any job done
Few of the hall girls.
Few more.
Senior peeing in my garden.
Senior caught.
Beebop meet rocksteady.
Tail of the Sun
Seems like today I'm looking back..
Well maybe tomorrow I'll see further then my lil head allows me to..
I'll be cruising and I'll crack..
Nothing better happen, to these feelings that I'm going through.
