Life has been totally uneventful, even to the point of being boring.
This is the tradeoff I guess.
However I'm still grateful for everything.

Stephen Gately
Boyzone star Stephen Gately dies in Majorca.
Oh my god.
All right, he's gay but I used to like him during his boyzone days (my primary school days). I used to think he was the cutest amongst the lot.
This is truly shocking. He was only 33.
Totally didn't know about this till someone posted the news link on facebook.
RIP Stephen. :\

Flirting, heroes, GG and vampires
I always enjoyed reading Sumiko Tan's articles. She always seemed to talk about topics that I can relate to, read: pending spinsterhood (and embracing it).
On yesterday's Sunday times' lifestyle, she talked about flirting with the bak chor mee man, as well as flirting on networking sites such as facebook, myspace etc. She thinks flirting is good but is it wrong to flirt when you are happily married/attached etc? Even on cyberspace. But that doesn't apply to me cos I'm happily/unhappily single (I can't decide). But I suck at the art of flirting IRL. I don't think I can ever excel in that in real life towards a guy I fancy. I won't even look straight at his eyes.
Anyway, may I add that there is another avenue for flirting. Evony. Hah. Recently I engaged in some harmless flirting with this brit from my alliance. Recent as in 2 weeks ago. He kind of started it first and I played along. Words are perhaps easier as typed out on screen vs actual flirting done in person. BUT due to our timezone difference, it's hard to catch him online and thus I haven't been able to catch him online for the last 2 weeks (anw 1 week I was away in Japan). Kinda missing his humor. Hmm. The Americans are always around. Due to our 12 hours' difference, i.e. their 9am is our 9pm, hence they are always around to chat with. And some of them sleep crazy hours. However, my nameless brit loves to log on at 12am London time which is like 7am SG time...so bleah. Oh and he's kinda cute as seen on the profile pic posted on our alliance forum. ;)

Back to Heroes S4. It sucks. The first 3 episodes couldn't redeem themselves from S3's shitty ending. The storyline was sloppily done. There don't seem to be a focus unlike S1 and S2 where we know there is THE COMPANY/Pinehurst behind all the crap. But now I don't even know who's pulling the strings. The mysterious carnival guy doesn't interest me much. Did Claire's roomie really commit suicide? Not explained. Sorry, Claire Bennett's free fall test doesn't explain why she didn't see the suicide note earlier. Syler has become an irritant who's always hovering in the background. Not to mention, Nathan Petrelli (who's actually Syler) seems redundant at this point in time. Come on writers, save the show!
Gossip Girl Season 3. Un-interesting too. The only reason why I watch GG is cos of Blair Waldolf's fashion. Which is the only saving grace at the moment. I used to watch GG also because Chace Crawford is cute BUT Nathaniel Archibald is............I'm speechless. All he does is hook up with girls and doesn't contribute even to the teeniest of the plot. Totally irrelevant and out-of-point casting.
The Vampire Diaries 3 is too teen angst-ridden. The brooding good vampire vs the evil vampire. And the heroine who couldn't decide which brother she prefers. I think I'll take Twilight any day even though twilight sucks too. Okay I think the best vamp movie I saw so far has to be The Interview with the Vampire. Love the book too and Brad Pitt kicks ass as Louis although Tom Cruise came across as a little short for the role of Lestat.
I'm still watching the above cos I'm bored, I need entertainment......hope Taiwan comes up with some good dramas soon as I enjoyed the previous 败犬女王.

An invisible thread
The season finale of Heroes Season 3 left me deeply unsatisfied.
Season 1 and 2 finales had better closures and ended their respective volumes nicely. NYC was spared of the explosion in S1 and the Shanti virus was destroyed in S2. Season 3 finale chose not to end on a cliff hanger but instead had Syler taking on the form of Nathan Patrelli. It was not revealed how Nathan's body was disposed off either. Peter Petrelli was the one who jabbed the tranquilizer which could kill an elephant into Syler's throat so as to knock him out. However, it was not explained subsequently why Peter was not present when Angela Patrelli engaged Matt Parkman's help in removing Syler's memories and replacing it with Nathan's. Syler shape shifted into Nathan but we are not sure if this is permanent. So it seemed then that Peter and Claire Bennett were both kept in the dark of Nathan's death.
Claire's blood can be used to revive the dead where it was used to revive Noah Bennett when he was shot in the eye by Mohinder Suresh. So why did Angela Petrelli not chose this alternative? Why have Syler replace her dead son when there is this possibility of bringing the real Nathan back from the dead? Furthermore, Noah was present when Syler was brainwashed by Matt in the second last scene but no suggestions were made by him, assuming that Angela might be unaware that her granddaughter's blood had healing abilities (highly unlikely).
I don't really like the twist at the end. To have Syler take Nathan's shoes. Perhaps the writer wasn't sure if he wants to keep Syler or Nathan in the story and it is best to end it this way. Like Nicki Sanders being written off to make way for Tracy Strauss. But I can't imagine the show without the resident psychotic killer - Syler (Zachary Quinto). So he should be back as himself pretty soon.
Season 4 starts next Monday. All the unanswered queries about to be revealed, hopefully.

get well soon
This is terrible.
I was talking to this girl from the same alliance on evony yesterday. She was telling me that she plans to attack this nearby hostile city after she's back from church. And the next thing I'm hearing today is that she was involved in a serious car accident on the way back from church. Barely conscious now and can only move her right arm. The stupid driver fled.
She is sort of like my neighbour on the strategy game, about 5.7 miles away from me on the game and possibly zillions of miles away in terms of actual physical distance. I think she's american. What shocked me was that I was just talking to her yesterday and then everyone was asking about her this morning and I was wondering why. She was really nice to me, all giggly on the game and sending me resources when I first started on the game. Sweet girl.
It's just a game. These people are nicknames, probably won't ever get to know their real names or know how they look like but it still got to me.
Hope you get well soon dear neighbour.

Evony-ing
I think I'm addicted to Evony. An idiot plundered my city twice yesterday and got robbed of his thousands of armies instead, thanks to my traps and archer towers. Unfortunately, he got one of his stronger freaking alliance members and my city was almost, completely raided.
I was feeling miserable as I had to rebuild all the shit. Then I joined a powerful and helpful alliance and my city has been left alone (so far) for me to rebuild my stuff, so yay. The helpful alliance transported loads of resources to aid me in the rebuilding. Sigh, looks like I can't play this game on my own without some strong backings.
Anyway the game isn't really that interesting as there is a lot of waiting time. It can take hours to build something but I get satisfaction from seeing my city grow. And the prestige rises too.
Sleepy now, having KTV-ed till wee hours of morning yesterday and woke up involuntarily by alarm this morning to brunch with a longtime friend. I haven't seen her for years! My goodness....

Apple in hot water in France over 'exploding iPhones'
Is this the reason why Singtel is taking ages to replenish its iPhone stock?
Early this year, my colleagues happily snapped up China's version of iPhone (known as the Aphone) in Shanghai. Despite its incredibly attractive price, I had my reservations about purchasing it, which I didn't urm for fear of it exploding. I mean it's always better to get the real thing...and now look what's happening?
Oh well, my 2 year old iPod hasn't burst into flames yet..

The Proposal
Caught The Proposal today and it's your typical feel-good predictable comedy. I even read the spoiler ending on the web before watching but anyway no surprises.
And then, there is Ryan Reynolds.
He has the cutest puppy dog eyes. Of course, the japanese spitz in the movie was a real darling as well. After Reynolds, haha.
Not only that.
His body is smoking hot as well. The only unfortunate thing is he's married to bombshell Scarlett Johansson. LOL.
I need to go re-watch the 2009 MTV movie awards for him and Sandra Bullock's segment.

Thoughts run
It is so difficult to find a travelling kaki nowadays. I envy friends who have a fixed travelling mate to tour the world with. You know, those you can call upon to arrange the annual or bi-annual trip without worrying that they will backout on you or choose their boyfriends over you. I can't count on my family either as they are not really into travelling and they hate long haul flights.
Of course, the ideal solution would be to find myself a boyfriend (who enjoys travelling too), but haha the likelihood of that ever happening is close to zero at the moment. Or maybe not at all in this lifetime as I resign myself to becoming a 败犬.
Once upon a time, I thought I found a fun travelling mate. That was before she got attached and her boyfriend decided to object to our future expeditions. He objected during my lowest emotional point this year. I thought I could steal a breather, sort out of thoughts on this long awaited getaway and he had to say 'no' to her and even picked a fight with her. I think he's a complete moron but I'll leave it at that.
Alternatively, I'll be a lone traveller from now onwards. A lot of people go on trips on their own...it's really no big deal. Except maybe there will be fewer solo shots if I can't find anyone to take pic of me and some scenery, haha.
Yeah, no big deal. I just need to rant. I'm semi-depressed today.

why did I register my interest? For fun?
I gushed about the blackberry in a previous post but I went to register my interest in the iPhone on the Singtel website. I didn't know iPhone 3G (whatever) was exclusive to Singtel. Neither did I know it was just launched in July. I thought it was out since ages ago...yeah probably the 2G version. I don't keep track of phones.
Anyway registering my interest doesn't mean I need to buy. I still don't understand how the iPhone plan works and not forgetting the cost is much higher than my current plan.
And I really don't need a phone at the moment....despite my 'T' alphabet soft touch keypad giving me problems.
I need some sort of retail therapy.

why have you changed?
This is not how my stupid blog should look like. I have resorted to using one of their pre-made templates as I couldn't figure out how the hell to get those tags to work on the new template I have chosen.
Argh. I'll have all the time in the world to fiddle with this next week. Or dump blogspot for xanga, movable type? Anything that allows me to modify my template freely without getting a headache from all the technical jargon? But I can't bear to dump chocolate-rain. After all I've been here for the past 3 years.
Time for bed, stayed up way too late last night for my nonsense surfing.

NDP random ramblings
Happy birthday Singapore.
Google has a really cute logo specially for NDP. I like saving and collecting their cute logos.
Some random things:
Kristen Stewart has a pink blackberry! I didn't know blackberries come in pink. Came across the below picture while having my daily dosage of Rob Pattinson papz moments.
Click to see the high resolution/HQ version. The pink berry is nice!Sumiko Tan wrote a column on meeting her jc crush some 29 years later. Cute article. I always enjoyed reading her columns.
I can't imagine meeting a jc crush (in person) almost 30 years later. It has been close to a decade since my last serious crush in jc and he is my non-interactive friend on facebook. I still get to see his updates once in a while. Facebook, twitter whatever has made the world smaller and you can basically be updated on all your ex-crushes, lovers, bfs/gfs if you cared enough for them to still exist within your virtual network. At least Sumiko went on that one date with him, sadly I didn't, ha. Did deliberately turning up at one of his usual haunts count as meeting? lol. I don't think I'll ever be comfortable with that if the chance ever popped up. If we weren't exactly friends to begin with....
The weather sucks today.

Hopeless
I suspect I have blogged about this JJ Lin song before. But hell, I'm feeling every single freaking word in the lyrics. Okay, most of it anyway.
Black Warrior
作詞：五月天 阿信 作曲：林俊傑
有了天空 為何世界 還有 地心引力
有了希望 為何絕望 還是 如影隨形
有了勇氣 就讓哭泣 埋葬過去
去寫一種歷史 名字叫奇蹟
如果恐懼就像火炬 那就讓它沸騰我血液 帶我到絕地
喔 我才能完全 覺醒
在黑暗 的對面 是光明 光明 後面 是陰影
正義 邪惡 是誰 有權 定義
在命運 的前面 我懷疑
在面具 後面 鐵一般決心 光榮的犧牲 也是種榮譽
不怕人說 不要人懂 我要證明 明天我的姓名 將會是傳奇
如果恐懼就像火炬 那就讓它沸騰我血液 帶我到絕地
喔 我才能完全 覺醒
在黑暗 的對面 是光明 光明 後面 是陰影
正義 邪惡 是誰 有權 定義
在命運 的前面 我懷疑
在面具 後面 鐵一般決心 光榮的犧牲 也是種榮譽
失敗會設下陷阱 沒有勝利會發出邀請
只有我自己 喔 能夠還我自己 公平 還我自己 公平
在黑暗 的對面 是光明 光明 後面 是陰影
正義 邪惡 是誰 有權 定義
在命運 的前面 我懷疑 在面具 後面 鐵一般決心
要扭轉命運最後的反擊
For this moment, I love JJ Lin (Mayday's 阿信, whoever wrote this song). Move aside Jay.
Is my self-constructed bubble of hope about to burst? As my mood declines to its worst on a Friday.
I still have 2 fat files to clear with the manager later, yeah what a fantastic end to this week. The long weekend is non-appealing. My life stinks too much for anything to appeal to me.

Liverpool~~~~~
I was peeved that I couldn't get the east/grand stand tickets (and even more annoyed with Steven Gerrard's absence). But turned out that my South Stand behind-the-goalpost was a blessed spot with 4 out of the 5 goals being netted in at my end. :)
Perhaps most of the female population was waiting for the grand entrance of him.
Fernando Torres
Okay lah, very cute meh? I think it's the blond streaks and he's not a natural blond. :p Anyway I can only see a tiny speck of him running around in his No 9 shirt. The new away kit isn't very friendly on the eye either. It looks like dull gold against the black.
Stevie, wait for me! Don't you dare retire or club hop anywhere, I'm going to Anfield to see you one day!!!!

RPattz, down memory lane
There is just something about this guy that has transformed me into part of his screaming legion of fans. Right, except I don’t scream.
I wasn’t attracted to him when I first saw him in Twilight. Probably due to the grainy and sketchy effects of the Krisworld entertainment system onboard SQXXX. I cannot remember which flight is that.
I was into a certain Mr Crawford despite his ornamental/manwhore role in Gossip Girl.

His new look for GG Season 3 and he is still gorgeous
And then one day, I came across a teenie pic of him in a mag and was drawn to his sexy, brooding look. It didn't take Google long to churn out more of the sexy brooding, what some described also as "roguishly stoned looks." And I'm in love, sighh. Haha.
I didn't re-watch Twilight although I have it in dvd. Instead I was excited to re-watch Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire to see how much the boy has grown since his Cedric Diggory days.
Cedric Diggory (Fresh faced teen)
Him with the rest of the HP cast, looking slightly awkward and out of place
Him at HP's Goblet of fire NYC premiere..omg, already looking hot. Where did the awkwardness go to?
A recent photoshoot. Still irresistibly hot with the tousled hair. I will spare you of any Twilight pics for the moment. I must repeat it wasn't strictly because of Edward Cullen. I think he's too pale, lol. I prefer the Rob as he is, human.

Bloody disappointed
Is it my fault that I didn't check Steven Gerrard's personal calendar and getting to know that he isn't PART of LFC's asian tour due to his assault court case? I was simply too busy. All I knew was that Liverpool's coming, I gotta go and it's my chance (finally) to see my favourite footballer. Since he didn't turn up 8 years ago in Sg due to an injury.....And it doesn't help that our stupid local papers were creating this false impression and misrepresenting that he will be here...
Argh, I'm DISAPPOINTED. 8 years ago he wasn't here, 8 years later due to that stupid court case (why must you get embroiled in that??!!!!!) he is not coming AGAIN.
At this rate, I'll never get to see him (play) in person and then he retires in 2013 or what..

in between reality and fiction
Definition of a zombie as extracted from Wikipedia: A reanimated corpse or a mindless human being.
And that is exactly what I am now.
I haven't been updating here diligently and probably no one is checking back here anymore, which suits me just fine.
The last thing I want is probably real life confrontation on what's going on. I don't think I can handle any questionings unless I'm ready to tell you myself.
My life is a spectacular failure. I don't even know how on earth things can go SO WRONG. Things picked up a little and was seemingly going the way I prayed so hard and then it had to go back to square one. I was doomed for this right from the beginning.
I felt like a total zombie for the whole weekend. A zombie that surprisingly can still turn on the tear ducts as and when. I don't think real mindless corpses are capable of crying, do they?
Brought back alot of work to do, work that needs to be finished before I fly off this coming Sunday but I barely touched anything. Other than moping around or reading the Twilight series (I'm on the third book now). Bad choice for reading materials......I feel as jinxed as the female protagonist. As per this particular line in the book where the black box won't even survive if she or I get into a planecrash. Or maybe I'll get infected with H1N1 first. The chances of that are higher. However, I do not have an Edward Cullen to protect and tell me that everyting's going to be okay. Cos nothing will, and I mean this in a bitter tone.
Although Twilight is a teenage series and I'm probably too old for this but I always had this obsession for vampire tales since the Anne Rice days and my love for Armand, the forever 16 year old while I have outgrown him by 10 years now.Okay, not talking sense anymore, I need to get some work done so I'll feel less guilty but guilt doesn't count that much either when the end is already so near.
I should ban myself from wikipedia as I have accidentally read spoilers for the 4th book, damn it.
And that is exactly what I am now.
I haven't been updating here diligently and probably no one is checking back here anymore, which suits me just fine.
The last thing I want is probably real life confrontation on what's going on. I don't think I can handle any questionings unless I'm ready to tell you myself.
My life is a spectacular failure. I don't even know how on earth things can go SO WRONG. Things picked up a little and was seemingly going the way I prayed so hard and then it had to go back to square one. I was doomed for this right from the beginning.
I felt like a total zombie for the whole weekend. A zombie that surprisingly can still turn on the tear ducts as and when. I don't think real mindless corpses are capable of crying, do they?
Brought back alot of work to do, work that needs to be finished before I fly off this coming Sunday but I barely touched anything.
