Drew’s 23rd [Edited with Video!]

Filed Under Birthdays | Leave a Comment

Right after dinner on the day we had our Skytrex adventure, the group decided to throw Drew a somewhat surprise birthday celebration at Ben’s. It didn’t turn out as quite the surprise though since Ben’s parents started wishing Drew “happy birthday” the moment he walked in (it wasn’t his birthday then). :p

There was no surprise in the end but everyone loves Tiramisu cake and good company. :)amsk23-2

Most importantly, he was happy.

Happy 23rd birthday, dear. :) I love you.

I Just Don’t Get It

Filed Under Daily Rambings, Life, Thoughts | 7 Comments

1. Why don’t some ppl just learn to let go?

Seriously. It may have been what someone else said or did that could’ve pass off as as irritating at the time. But why do some ppl have to go on and on and on and on (and you get what I mean right?) over the same ol’ thing? Why do you love putting that pebble back into your shoe knowing very well it’s gonna bug you? Isn’t it just like putting your finger towards a boiling kettle? You know you’re gonna get hurt, so why must you go looking for the source of your pain? And why do ppl love to ruminate? Yes, bitching about some ppl can be very theraputic at times. But after one too many times, can’t we talk about anything else?

2. Why do ppl litter?

Its a piece of tissue/paper. Heck, even if it’s a bloody empty can of drink or a ciggie. It can very well fit in that humongous hand of yours for a minute or two until you find the nearest bin. If you’re in the car, can’t you put it aside and dump it at some place more appropriate later other than just flinging it out of your car window? Out of sight, out of mind just won’t do for this case. Don’t these ppl feel any sort of guilty conscience after littering?

3. Why are some ppl so damn narcisisstic?

Don’t these ppl have anything else to talk about other than themselves? Everything’s about me, myself and I. The thing that ticked me off the most is when some of these ppl picked up the fad of making Fan Pages of themselves on Facebook. Oh, so now that we’re already friends.. you want me to be your fan? You gotta be kidding me. And don’t these ppl ever get the hint when their requests keeps getting ignored? Why do you keep insisting for me to join that page of yours even after you’ve invited me more than five times?

4. Why do some ppl copy?

I’m not talking about academic tests here. This is about some ppl who has got no personality of his/her own that they would end up copying another – from the way they speak, their dressing/hairstyles to the ideas and opinions that they have. I admit that I wasn’t born with a sense of good fashion taste and I do occasionaly get a couple of ideas from fashion sites and what not. So, number 4 is gonna make me look like a hypocrite but let me just say these ppl stand out so well because you’d know when they lose their friends and the next moment, they’ll be copying their next “best friend”. They are anything but original or genuine.

5. Why do some ppl love to drown themselves with sorrow unnecessarily?

There’s no such thing as a silver lining to these ppl and everything that happens to ‘em is just not good enough. Why do these ppl love putting themselves into the dark, in isolation but instead will complain that they have no life or friends at the end of the day? Is there really so much bad in the world these days that one cannot see any good no more?

6. Why do some ppl lie even if they suck in doing so?

You got them in a corner, you confront them – yet they choose to stick with that lousy transparent lie. It’s like they already believe that the lie is in fact the truth. Why do these ppl still continue to lie even after several interogations and they give answers which are totally incoherent? Do they really think everyone they tell that lie to will believe them?

…

K, I’ve got loads more to write but I’m all out of word juice for now. It’s 2.18am on a Monday morning and I can’t believe it’s the end of my CNY holidays already. Now, it’s really crunch time at the varsity. Just two more months before I officially become a graduate/unemployed. How exciting.

(See, this is why I’m so bitter lah.)

SkyTrex

Day 331: 20th February 2010

SkyTrex: Big Thrill Adventure with (clockwise from far left) JK, Ai Li, Grace, myself, Regine, Calvin, CJ, Drew, Yu Min and Ben.

I’ve been wanting to go for this Skytrex thingy since three long years ago. But as usual, like any other activity that includes more than 5 pax, it’ll need a whole lot of organizing before we can say “Ok, let’s go!”. So when “team leader” Grace managed to get all ten of us together, I was damn psyched about it lah albeit the fact that my knees go wobbly whenever I’m in high, high places. Too bad though, that the Extreme track was fully booked on that day. Instead, we opted for the Big Thrill where the obstacles went up to 17 metres (22 metres for Extreme).

(Actually, I was quite happy that we didn’t get to do the Extreme one. Kantoi lah my muka if I cried or fainted halfway through kan? So yay, Big Thrill to test if I’ve got balls or not wtf.)

Because I was the only one who was gonna be vertically mindfucked, Drew made me go first. -_- As expected, it took me longer than usual to complete the first few obstacles but after a while, I was all good and enjoyed all the flying fox rides without the need to pee in my pants. (y)!

Bring on the Extreme track! :D
