Tha-Na-Kha (Natural Bark) •

A bowl hits a tile on a kitchen floor of a high-rise apartment in Singapore, South East Asia, Earth.

about 12 metres away a young man wakes up immediately regretting the amount of time spent gaming into the wee hours of the morning.

It takes me a while to realise that I'm awake. I duck under the covers and try to go back to sleep, and after half an hour of trying I get up.

Inbox is full and I can't get any messages. 5 minutes later I realise that Ernie and Shelley are going out. Can't text them back. Ruddy phone, can't even withstand being used as my makeshift drumstick.

The usual morning unfolds itself on my computer screen. Its safer, calmer, more orderly in the mess of my own room than in the organisation of the outside. I understand now why even Superman needed a fortress of solitude.

The phone rings. I've got till 3 to reach PS.

Several hours later I'm on the rail, why do such a large number of local women insist on wearing shorts and so few to dresses?

Grab the usual when I'm there: Saybons (oh, the owners in today. She almost never smiles, but its alright. Such good food can only come from a well meaning heart) and then later boost. We're set.

Why am I watching New Moon? Of all people, I am probably one of the many who detest the idea of the twilight series. After all, I've been told the entire storyline ( thank you Shelley for all the spoilers ). That and I'm a Harry Potter fan, the natural arch-nemesis of the Twilight fan.

The only thing that redeemed the movie was that Edward's sister was really cute. That and everybody's eyes looked nice. After 2 cups of soup and one cup of boost I REALLY need the toilet.

Met Nick after that. BIG FEAST.

The list of good food that have been devour'th:
1. Deep fried pork skin ( without the fat. this is worth dying for )
2. Shan-district tofu noodles ( they were very salty )
3. Pig Head Salad ( a lot better than it sounds )
4. Semolina rice cake with poppy seed topping ( gave me a headache )

Best feast in a while.

I need to buy a huge bag of fried pork skin.

The Quickie. •

Okay, I've only got a short moment to blog right now before I go for tuition.

So I'll just post some factual updates before I come home tonight and do something proper.

The long-but-quite-relatively-short list of facts about my life ( I sound so narcissistic ):

1. Yes, we are still together.
2. Shes overseas right now: I'm lonely.
3. My holidays just started,will be free this Sat and Sun, will post timetable of free days later.
4. Hoping to play Diablo 2 again, anyone who can rip it off the net-call me.
5. Also hoping to sell one Fender rio+hardcase+pedal. Still thinking about price.
6. Will be fishing today for black tilapia:)
7. Had the cutest lit lecture ever yesterday, she was extremely funny:)
8. For half a game I though Jakiro's dual breath was passive.
9. I'm gonna be late if I dont move soon.

Oh one last thing, I kinda wanna fully compile like who reads my blog, and....anyone who wants to be linked (and read) just stick your URL into my chatbox thingamajig on the left side over there.

Few last things to say.
First, to all my J2 friends: you're doing great, keep going.
To Alex: Good on ya, tahan for a bit more:)
To Jamie: good luck with the job
To Weiyang: YOU DIDN'T DO THE LOG HOMEWORK DID YOU?!
<<<<<<<<<<<<<

yup okay.

p.s: Thinking of releasing a Christmas wishlist, or just a wishlist so in case anyone wants to get me anything for any occassion they dont have to freak out about it.

The Horseman •

Four horsemen Pictures, Images and Photos

The White Horse: Conquest
The Red Horse: War
The Black Horse: Pestilence
The Green Horse: Death

*******************
*SPOILER ALERT*
*******************

So I just watched "The Horsemen" with my family and Anthea, and I think it was really interesting, cause a while back I was thinking how it would be like if one day you found out that it was the Apocalypse, and you were appointed to be the Horseman Death and had to kill people you loved.

Here was some stuff I think came form the movie, which was really memorable:

"Death is a physicality; War is a mindset"

"Death is the end; War is everything else"

Heres how it went down, I'm only gonna talk about how each person died.

War's victim was her mother, whose lungs filled with blood due to a puncture, causing her to die, but she was on drugs when they hooked her onto a suspension rig with fish hooks.

Pestilence was killed by the other three, because he betrayed them.

Death was gay, and hooked his brother up to a suspension rig and used a weird metal device to keep his brother's eyes open. Then he took a surgical saw and sat down in front of his brother and cut open his chest, nearly reaching his heart.

Conquest somehow managed to hook himself to a rig, and I think was cut at the side of his torso. He lived.

I find it ironic that Death died.

I also found it strange that War revealed herself.

Both Dad and I found it meaningfull that each person killed the person who was closest to the heart of the person they wanted to punish.

(woah, a lot of "person"s in that sentance)

Death killed himself because his brother couldn't accept his homosexuality.

War killed her mother because she was adopted as it was thought her mother was barren, until her sisters were born, that, and her foster father sexually abused her.

Pestilence.. I think Pestilence was heartbroken or something, I don't know.

Conquest's father divorced his mother and was busy working when she died of cancer.

Dad thought it was really bad that they killed their victim's most beloved.

I won't say its BAD, but its the most inhumane thing to do to a person, which is why I think it was a very clever thing to do.

Death is too easy, its like letting people escape form pain. I think honestly, that if you should hurt a person, they should live to a ripe old age in suffering. They should.

Think Heathcliff, who ahd to suffer living, and you'll understand.

I think Dad didn't understand because he was looking at it from a parent's point of view, whilst I was looking at it through the eyes of a horseman.

I think I can fully understand the desire to hurt people you hate so badly that they have to beg to die every day of a long life.

I just haven't found a legal way around that yet.

And I think I understand why War gave herself up. She wanted to kill her mother and that was her ultimate goal, but she also killed an innocent, untainted, unborn child, and I think even a "monster" like her understood the severity of that.

Dad said that people back in his day were stronger physically and emotionally.

Thats true, but back then the world and people weren't so screwed up.

Argh •

Seriously, either they're punding spices upstairs, or nailing a lot of stuf together, or having really aggressive sex.

STOP IT!!!

graaawwwrrrr (noise hating monster)

Seriously, now theres the freaking marble sound.

I am very tempted to do stuff with heavy machnery next morning. Really.

I hate people that make so much NOISEEdmaipcsmadko;dksa;m

I KILL YOU!!! Pictures, Images and Photos

okay. okay, okay, concentrate, blog..

Had a great weekend with Ant...

pretty darn happy her mom was alright with her going on holiday with me..thats pretty..amazing..

I've never been on holiday with her. Its gonna be so cool.

Uh...haven't slept in 2 days now.. really really tired.. I'll bathe, get pw done, and sleep.

WHY haven't I slept for so long?

excellent question, rhetorical me!

I was doing art. uh.. I don't really wanna explain what I was doing...cause I already did that today in class, and that took me like...15-20 minutes..soo...

I will however, be posting pictures of my work in the next blog post.. possibly on facebook as well, but I dno.. I'm not sure if I want to because I'm pretty sure most people won't ahve that many nice things to say about it.

My art class did though.

I'm really tired, I cleaned my entire room....

gettting my specs tml too. YAY!

I wonder how nerdy I'm gonna look, and then after that, all I need is a new bag.. I think.

I'm not really sure.. My current one is really great utility-wise, it has a laptop compartment and a "fridge" unit that keeps things cool or hot.. and it has those waterbottle holders...

If I were to get a new one... I'm thinking either Jansport-kind, or..that..weird pattern-y leathery thingamaboob that I had in secondar school. That was kinda alright..quite nice.

Hmmm so.. suggestions?

alright. really gotta take a shower now.

p.s: I'm not pissed anymore, dad brought back chilli and pepper crab from jumbo seafood.

p.p.s: I think food is the thing that makes me happy, case in point: Aish's chocolate cake.

Love •

One day a student asks a teacher what love is.

His teacher tells him that love is like a corn and ends him out to a field.

He can only pick one, he can look back, but he cannot walk back.

and he cannot retrace any steps.

The corn he picks will be the one he eats.

He goes to the field and sees the biggest corn he has ever seen the moment he steps onto the field and grabs it.

He goes back and shows it to his teacher. His teacher tells him its not good for him because its a little spoiled. He doesn't listen. His friend tells him not to, as well, but steals it from him and eats it himself. He is friendless, and hungry.

He starves for a day.

His next lesson is a week later, he has fasted till then and is on the brink of death.

His teacher sends him out again, with the same rules.

He sits in front of the field for another week, watches each stalk grow, wither, and grow again.

He finds a meek looking ear of corn not too far away.

Its not humongous, but its not small either.

Its skin is perfect, no flaws, no worms.

Pure.

He quits school, and from that corn, he takes out all its kernels and prepares to grow his own corn.

(idk what all that was about.)

OKAY, next story about love..

this one is..from Plato. but in like..super simple english.

according to greek legend, at the beggining there were three genders, male,female, and androgynous.

The androgynous was a creature that embodied the best of male and female attributes.

It had the body of a male and female joined together. one face made of both, four arms and four legs.

It was a powerful beast, so much so that one day androgynous challenged the Gods.

It failed, and Apollo was tasked with seperating the beast into two.

While he tried, each half struggled so much.

Each half did not care about food, water, or anything else.

Their primary concern was connecting with the other again.

(ok, thats all I found out about..all that.)

Today econs paper was...really bad.

My mind has never blanked out before

but art was great.

9 essays in 3 hours.

I am LEET.

lovin it.

I love my friends.
and my Dad.

He said something in chinese today..

and it translated to..

"EVEN IF WE DIE, WE SHALL NOT BOW!"
that and something like he'd rather be the backside of a tiger than the head of a chicken.

Chinese philosophy ftw.

apparently you zha kuei has a story behind it too involving a general and a minister and the emperor.

Daym my culture rocks.

Its not like The Burger has any philosophical significance behind it:)

and the quote for the day fom the Good Book thast kinda helps me feel better...is....

-drumroll-
“Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid...for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.”

I'm so tired.

I'll be glad when this is over.

"For to me to live, is Christ."

hmm, I feel like writing an imaginary letter to Paul.

Ok, I shall do that now, as though I were living in his time and somehow allowed to send letters to prisoners.

Dear Paul,
your words calling for joy and rejoicing are very encouraging, especially since they are coming from you when you're in prison and..what seems to be much worse than the conditions out here. However, we are not all as free as we seem to be. The world is self, riddled with sin is a prison unto every man as well. We are not prisoners because we have been treated unfairly but because we have chosen to commit the crime of sin. It is each mans choice, and right now, I can feel myself against the cold stone walls and iron bars.

The weight of stress upon me is..tiring. It draws my breath away. I feel so selfish in comparison with you for ranting about my life which is physically free when yours is not, but I cannot help but feel that you are more free within those stone walls and in chains than most people are in the free world.

If sin is our prison, then I must ask the High Judge for a release.

I will go now, with heavy heart and back arched under weight, shoulders torn asunder.

For to me to live, must be Christ.
