very hectic nowadays... now tat i am up north and totally unfamiliar with the bus system, i am screwing up over all the schedules. like yesterday, i was late for work for an hour coz i have no idea how frequently the bus comes (kk fine... partly oso coz i oversletp a little... but i won't be TAT late if i had lived in central instead of north ya noe...) and today, in my desperate attempt to come early and ontime, i end up coming down central half an hour earlier than i should and i had to wonder around for half an hour. so stupid...
I am still trying to settle myself down from all these travelling and working stuff. feel very drained everytime i get back to my room at 8 at nite. i mean, afterall, i did left the room at abt 9 in the morning. very gan jiong this whole period of time. hope this is not the case when term starts officially next week. i think i am too mentally drained to do any real studying if this is to happen. but i guess the plan is still to stick around in the library down in central in between classes and work and to as much revision as i can. if not i know i go back sure sleep straight away one...
kk, there is something i have ALWAYS wanted to blog about ever since i started work here in ILL. nono, the job is good, the ppl are nice. it is an amazing strange observation tat i observed ever since i started work here about me, woman and how age seems to play trick on ppl. but i think i will onli blog abt it after this friday, which is my last day of work. coz i dun wish to offend anyone (i dun think i will, but still...) so for you ardent fans and harcore followers out there, drop me a mail if you dun see my blogging about it in a week's time. thanx

I am so ready for the new term to start. Not really coz i miss mugging or those crazy latenites, but the whole atmosphere here is so awesome tat i am so pumped up for wat is to come!!! so wat atmosphere? well ya see, throughout spring n summer, the whole ann arbor is like not functioning. Roads are dug up, traffic changed and no one is around. but now, we see the whole city gearing up for the new terms. roads are all set, paved and ready to go! lights are intalled, fields are returfed and the place is buzzing with activities once again. It is just so awesome ya noe...
kinda feels like how it was last time in RI. during the holidays always go back for training n meeting all tat stuff. it is always those few ppl, and the school use tat empty break to renovate stuff, buy new furniture, new equipment... so the school is really messy. yet once the term actually starts, WOW, the sense of freshness. everything is all set and ready to go man!!! YEAH!!!
went out with the freshmen yesterday. Icenter got this picnic at island park. was really a cool experience, met some of the female taiwanese freshmen coz if Tien Huei and some of the singaporean dudes again. they are all very nice and fun ppl and we had a blast chatting nonsense and playing catch with football. took some photos with henghwa and tony wang. it was a great experience.
notice i didn't mention anything about the singaporean girls? well, let's just say i really dun have good impression of the majority of them. yeah, some of them are nice. hmm... i think onli karen is nice coz she bother to tok and mix around. the other girls just have this LOOK... well, can't say i have really mixed with them coz i see their LOOK onli i can't be bothered liao. and Tien Huei whom had tried to mix with them and from wat i observed from the side, those girls really dunnoe how to socialise outside of their puny little circle. oh well, or maybe the rest of us present are just not good enough for them. yeah, we are pathetic, uninteresting and not in their league. oh well, tough luck, too bad, kiss my ass. MUAHAHA... but then again, folks out there will say stuffs like "but you dunnoe them wat... blah blah blah" heck lah, in tat kind of social setting and they keep annoyingly stick to themselves and dun even bother to socialise, i think it speaks alot abt their attitude laaa... of course tien huei had some first hand encounter with their "bitchiness" but tat is not mine so i shouldn't tok about it. but still, their way of carrying themselves is not helping them to cast a good impression onto me oso.
like i said, the singapore girls really cannot make it. the guys are pretty cool. but you have those seniors who is always a step ahead of me dragging them to do other stuffs. fine by me. but tat onli means i will have less interaction chance with them. a bit sad coz i will really like to mix more with these new folks esp coz they are my batchmates. but i guess i will just stick to TWSA and just socialise with those singaporeans occasionally or wateva...
Baits rox man!!! the place is just so peaceful and quiet and i get to do wateva stuff tat i want!!! my room is a ted small, but very cosy nonetheless. really love it esp after all tat happened during sp/su. moved everything outta tat place within 2 hrs. ya can't imaging how eager i was to move out of tat place. and yeah, i can't sleep for two days b4 tat coz things tat happened in tat apt keep playing thru my head. sad, but life goes on even though you meet shits along the way. wish those guys luck in wateva they do and hope our paths dun cross again in such fashion in the future.
YUPYUP, new term will start in a week. need to figure out the bus service more carefully and get more use to the baits facilities. CHEERS!!! (yesh... i am so hyped up!!!)

Went out with the new batch of singaporeans today to Meijers even though i was not feeling all too well still. Didn't even noe tat i was involved in this thing until about 12 when i receive a mail from the coordinator telling me to meet in front of union at 5.30. Well anywae, i tot this will be an opportunity to meet up with heng hwa since i have no idea where tat chap is, so i went.
i really felt out of place. not knowing anyone there is really weird and no one really make the effort to intro intro abit. hmm... guess tat is to be expected given the performance of their senior batch. most of them oledi got to know each other in singapore liao, so i doubt they will bother to make the effort to know me. so i basically stood there looking invisible, which i have really gotten used to whenever i am in the presence of the singaporeans here. I did try to do some talking on our way to Meijer when we are in the car and in a small group of 5... and here is wat struck me.
I think i lost my ability to communicate with singaporeans oledi. i basically have NOTHING to talk to them about. maybe i am the super ulu guy here. but when i try to talk, i tot it will be a good idea to talk about things back home, so i ask them about wat school they from, eca and how they like this place. but the kind of answer they give really make me dunnoe how to continue. They dun seems to want to talk about wat school they are from, eca is just for points, and UofM? "ok laaa, i got brother/sister here"... i dunnoe, somehow i just dun have the ability to strike up a spontaneous conversation with these people. I think they are friendly, but i dun really sense the eagerness to break down the ice in between. though i did met this guy call kevin who asked for my cell number. so it is like i said. i dun think the problem is with them, but more to do with my inability to converse with these people. not feeling angry, not feeling sad, it is more of a how-the-hell-did-this-happened kind of feeling. sense of lost and bewilderness. how?!
but can wat. It is not as if i suffered a total lost of ability to converse you noe. i saw Paul from west quad. and i just strike up a conversation with him. not say i always tok to him or wat, but i saw him, he saw me, we greet, and we exchanged some small talks which i found more comforting than the ones i had with the 4 singaporeans i was in the car with. maybe i am just paranoid or something. after all, this is the first time i am meeting these people. compare to Paul which i have seen a million times along the corridor even though we didn't speak all tat much, we definitely had more "interaction" than i had with those singaporeans. understand wat i mean? but yeah... no biggie, if they anti or clique like their senior then just too bad lor. but i just really hope it is not due to some problems of myself.
but on the bright note of the day, Paul told me as we were chatting tat he is no longer with lei lei!!! heehee... *evil*... nonono, not as if i like lei lei or wat. and definitely not as if now i got more chance or wateva crap. Lei Lei is a good looking girl no doubt, but i dun think she is my type at all. I am using the word THINK coz i dun think i have mix with her enuff to make a judgement call abt her. but yeah, so far the impression she gave me is one of a weird weird crazy girl. HAHAHAH... and of course, a girl is not attached means more chance to get to know her and definitely makes her cuter. Single girls are just so much cuter (rite or not alanna?!?! jk). HAHAHA!!!

I am sure ya guys have heard of the Molotov Cocktail? But ever heard of the DAVID LIU COCKTAIL?!?!?!? i bet ya haven't
Unlike Molotov's cocktail which is used to treat puny diseases like AIDS, DAVID LIU COCKTAIL is used to treat the DAVID LIU's ILLNESS. Symptoms of this deadly disease is an outrageous outbreak of every possible illness. Usually it starts with severe sore throat, blisters in the mouth, then severe acute headache, then throbbing of the head, then fever, then cold, then fever and cold, then numbness in your limbs, then total lost of control of your ability to move, in the meantime while all these symptons start popping out and add on to each other, patients will begin to see and have recollections of what they just ate this morning or even two days ago as they kneel down in front of the (usually) toilet bowl chanting prayers like "F*cking sh*t", "holly F*CK" and many others.
In order to treat this deadly disease, the first diagnosed patient invented this remedy (patent pending). This cocktail comprises of a packet of this super expensive japanese imported medicine (which i have no idea wat it meant by super expensive or wat the hell tat medicine is actually suppose to do...) which kinda treats all illness tat david has gotten so far, a button of panadol (other than love sickness... MUAHAHA... so not farni...) and to be downed with a mixture of a pack of SUPER CHRYSANTHEMUM TEA and a pack of XIA SHANG JU.
No proven side effect such as brain damage is recorded (due to OBVIOUS initial lack of brain of the patient) and drowsinesss usually include 6 hours of total unconciousness even when your boss called you a million times asking you to come to work. Such medication is extremely dangerous but so far proven effective. The inventor of this medication is currently trying to come up with version 2 of this cocktail which is currently is at its initial planning stage and is forseen to include the use of Tara Reid, Carmen Electra, Kyoko Fukada, Norika Fujiwara and a strong doze of korean chics tat can be found on the UofM campus. MUAHAHHAHAHA
yes... as you can tell from this crap above, the tank is still sick but on its way to recovery after putting all those crap into his mouth at one shot out of desperation at 5am when he woke up feeling like dying and vomitted for godnoes how long.... and he end up missing work on wednesday coz he totally passed out and can't move his body even when he heard the phone ring and could onli stare at the phone till it stop ringing... sigh......

Shiming, Ronald and Ervin Yeo are prez scholars. WAIT A MINUTE!!! ERVIN YEO?!?! TAT RI RUGGER TAT GOES AROUND BEING A DICK. THE ONE TAT BROKE MY LEG AND ALWAYS TRY TO PICK A FIGHT WITH ME WHENEVER WE PLAY SOCCER?!?!?! HE IS A PREZ SCHOLAR?!!?!??! SHIT... I AM REALLY STAYING AWAY FROM SINGAPORE MAN... i mean this is just weird and freaky. yeah, rafflesians are suppose to rise up to the occasion. but please. CAN SOMEONE GENUINELY TELL ME TAT THEY HAD TOT ERVIN TO BE A PREZ SCHOLAR TYPE OF PERSON?!!? ok... dun give me the hindsight crap of "well... ya noe... come to think of it... he does have blah blah blah blah..." look, i noe he has his circle of friends, and too bad i am not one of them. nothing personal. just tat i am not a fan of ervin. even when i was back in RJ and his gf was in my class, i try really hard to "like" him but i really cannot cannot stand it. sigh... i need some alcohol... MUAHAHAH... but seriously. I really hope he got the award coz he had really changed 180deg after he went into RJ or something. No one can doubt tat he is smart. but attitude wise.... hmmm... i really dunnnoe...
but then again, on a very very much brighter note, Dexian and Kai Qing both got SAF... hmmm... AND THEY WERE FROM MY OG BABY!!! phyon is the OG to be man!!! hmm... wonder where is that pinky girl now... yup.. yesh you ying yi... you silly hyper pinky girl. hahaha... but man... rock onz man!!! kai qing is coming to Uchicago, which means i have a place to go visit liao laa!!! shiok rite!!! but then again, i neva keep contact with him... so i need to get to him thru heng hwa once he come over here liao. yeah... notice the extreme usage of "..." in this entry. coz so long neva keep contact with these ppl already. dunnoe if they still remember me and if we can still have the same fun as last time. i did enjoy myself with dexian and kai qing during the OG. and kai qing was very supportive even when he saw me after i left RJ and was slumping in NJ. hmm... wonders.... wonders... sigh... yeah... i think i am suffering from the pre-freshie syndrome. really wonder if those ppl from my real batch are going to behave. if they are going to be those cliquish bastards that their seniors are and if i can get to hang out with them or maybe they try to be dicks and carrying tat cock-dunnoe-wtf-you-arrogant for attitude around. Hopefully heng hwa not as PMS as last time. Dun really noe him... but he is always hanging around my class in RI coz he always visit cheeyong and songting from NCC. actually i oso noe kai qing thru cheeyong coz he oso from NCC. but then again cheeyong, kaiqing, dexian and me were all in the same OG. dunnoe laaa.. hopefully can have a funtime when those heng hwa come over and i can hitch a ride when we go visit kaiqing in Uchicago or even shiming in harvard and dexian in Stanford man!!! hahahah
Well, the post summer- pre fall trio are back again!!! hahah... yup, it is Mr Jebai-da-fag, Mr Batcha-da-man and Mr Yours Truly. Well, this is the sequal to last year's great adventure when the three of us squeeze in syawal's room after we got kicked out of markley and had no place to stay for that period. ROCK ONZ MAN... but then we are quite lazy laaa... whole day sit infront of TV onli. but yeah... it is fun and such coincidence tat the 3 of us got together under one roof yet again and at the same period of time this year. MUAHAHHA.. rock on baby!!!

"You should really be grateful that i am a smoker and carry a lighter with me all the time!!!"
This is what i overheard as i was walking through the dark streets of ann arbor armed with an energizer lighter, 4 spare batteries, a bottle of water and tennis racket as i experienced first-hand wat is hailed as the worst blackout in US history. MUAHHAHA... and it really sums up my experience. I tot it was a really cool experience although it was awfully inconvenient.
The blackout started while i was still working in the dentistry library. The lights went fickling for a few secs then went off completely. followed by the ventilation and everything. The head librarian, Pat, called DPS (dept of public safety... which is a useless bunch of nonsense tat just drive around busting parties. HAHAH) and found out that even the state capital east lansing is having such a problem. Five minute later, we found out even ohio and most of michigan are out. A little while more, we knew tat toronto, New York City and most of all states eastwards of michigan are having such problem. Of course, the dreaded T word start to surface. so the decisions are made to shut down the library and future decisions will be made with regards to the fate of the library tomorrow. I.e. we will continue to monitor the situation.
Got back home and it was around 5.15 already. Dare not open the fridge coz all my food are inside and i dun want them all to go wasted. Pray tat US fridge are as dependable and can trap its coldness as much as they can. I was hoping things will get back within a few hours. So i took a freaking cold bathe and decide to take a nap.
Woke up at 9 and lights are still not back on. Hmm.. try to call ppl on my cell and nothing worked. At least those ppl in michigan. But i was able to contact Greg Darmono who is in Berkeley right now and called armhawan's roommate in UCLA. She was most pleasant and helpful as she read me headlines off the web on CNN. Well, idiotic Bush knew nothing as usual and say it is probably a fire in the powerplant blah blah blah. NAH... i am really skeptical of wat the hell actually went on. So i start to walk around the campus. Interestingly, streetlights were on along state st and on south U. they have light in angell hall and east hall. it was a weird pattern of light but other than these, ann arbor is in total darkness. really freaky. The worst is when i walked to this campus phone outside Icenter and cambridge house. It was in complete darkness and i had to rely on my torchlite. really scary. but i was able to contact those folks up north campus and was glad that everyone is alrite and having a good time chilling outside at the car park. yeah, the land lines are working just fine. hmm... expect those land line companies to get some really good sales figure once things are back. HAHHA... well anywae, while i was on the phone with azwan, i saw another torchlite coming my way and i really felt scared. man... this is gonna be the worst possible place to get mobbed. not a single soul is like around to hear me even if i scream my throat out. so i start to walk away. running only show tat you are afraid, so i walked and hugged closed to my racket (now you guys noe why i carry a racket with me now yeah!!! HAHAH) so i can whacked tat !@#$%^&*( in case he try anything farni. it was really scary coz i had to walk towards him since the closest route to humanity is towards state st and it is in his direction. I dare not go towards South Quad coz tat place is even darker and i saw figures flickering in tat direction oso. Well anywae, i was really prepared for the worst as i walked past him and i really stuck to my side of the path. hahaha... tat guy OSO stuck to his side of the path and almost glued to the wall as we went past each other. so obviously he was wary of my presence oso. even though he was onli holding on to a torchlite while i had an extra racket. god noes wat nonsense he may have in his pocket. so after i went pasat him, i really start to walk fast. well, it was probably nothing now tat i said it. but it was REALLY dark and you really have to be there to experience wat i went thru. HAHAHAHAH...
Well, anywae, after a tour round central campus, i got back to my room and with the room so blardy hot, i filled the bathe tub with water. IT was only then i realised that there is HOT WATER STILL!!! how come there is still hot water when the electricity is out i oso dunnoe. but as if i care, so i mixed the hot water and freaking cold water a little and soaked myself in the bathe tub for a hour. Man... it was really cool to be in tat bathe tub for so long in COMPLETE DARKNESS. no diff between opening my eye and closing it. REALLY REALLY freaky and COOL!!!! MUAHAHAH. coz there is no moon up there oso, so it was hardcore darkness baby!!! well, anywae, i went to bed again, after feeling much cooler and cleaner!!
Went to grad library to report to work but the libraries are all closed. So tat means i got a day off!!! yeah!! but dunnoe i will get paid or not. most probably not. but as if i can do anywork even if i have to report in. without computer there is really nothing much i can do. and i bet the air inside the library must be filthy like crazy by now. Well, so i went over to angell hall, WHICH SURPRISINGLY HAS AIRCON !!!! MUAHAHAH... tok about saving electricity eh?!!? so anywae, i stayed inside there for like 2 hours as i read some novel. It was awesome. the aircon is so cooling and it was just totally enjoyable.
Anywae, my cellphone was working again by around 1pm. So i managed to call satchi and realised those folks up there tried to called me after i contacted azwan last nite. they wanted me to go up to join them. it was so nice of them, but hahah, didn't have the luck to enjoy it. HAHAH. oh well, as i was walking back home and talking to satchi on the phone, i noticed that the street lights are working again. still no electricity up north, but i have this strong feeling tat everything is back in order down at central. well, obviously tat was the case when all the floor lights in my apt are back on (yeah... in midnoon... save electricity eh?!?! hahaha)
well, inviting those folks up there to come down to my apt to get some food and sleep over or something. anywae i had a REALLY NICE fried rice and i am totally enjoying myself now man. MUAHAHA... but it was an experience. yup... totally cool if not a little inconvenient!!!

YOZ... been a while since i blogged. not much, other than me getting adjusted to being a working man. MUAHAH. Still quite stressful and work at ILL is still foreva so challenging even though i think my performance so far is not too bad. Of course, there is always room for improvement. Just wonder if i can get any better and learn my trade better before this month is up and i leave ILL. but work hard i shall and strive on i will. HAHAH
Job at dentistry library is taking a brighter turn. After the initial EXTREME boredom and idiotic-ness of reading and memorising the notes on every itsy bitsy small tiny details of the operation of the library. The job is now much more enjoyable and managable. My supervisor Rafael Becerra (from spain seville) is really nice and he looks like Jean Reno (whom in my opinion is the coolest man in EU, second to Mr Bean. MUAHAHAH... love tat line from the ads of Johnny English -- He knows no fear, He knows no danger... HE KNOWS NOTHING!!! MUAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA) yeah, like jean reno, he try to crack jokes and with his super cool face, you really dunnoe to cry or to laugh at his "joke". But tat just mean he can be a nice guy.
Food issue. i was working from 1030 till 230 then from 300 till 500. Notice the surprising usage of past tense and yes, despite all the horrible grammatical mistakes i always do, this WAS is used correctly. well, ya see, i tot i would be able to survive eating a slice of cheese pizza for lunch everyday. however, after two days of doing that, i was really dying. not say vomit at the smell of pizza, but i really cannot handle tat kind of diet onli. so i requested to start work from 330 instead. so basically shift the afternoon work for an extra half an hour. which should be just fine. however, this also poses a huge problem for me. well, how the hell am i suppose to makan next time when i live in north campus, without meal plan and have to stay in central all the way till about 10? kk... late dinner maybe not tat big problem. but without lunch!?!? oh no, i think i will die horribly. so tat means i must draw inspirations from the past!!!! i.e. bring packed lunch like i did in RI last time!!! MUAHAHAH... of course dun have the yummy beehoon or the sushi or the fantastic water dumpling tat mike and ah meng loved. but here is the plan. I will cook a lot during dinner. well, you see, i always either cook fried rice or fried noodle, so i will cook alot of the food, put them in tuberware and bring them to makan after using the microwave in the work place. SMART RIGHT?!!?!? but as of now, have not try them out yet. so i will do it soon. and the challenge here is whether i can tahan those overnite reheat fried rice. hopefully they won't taste too farni... pray... if not i really no idea how i am going to settle my makan problem liao... sigh...

Oh btw, just as a safety precaution, I am increasing my dosage of vitamin intake to 1.5 pill a day. With such emotion and physical drain at work nowadays and me needing to skip lunch due to work, i think this is a necessary step to ensure i stay healthy and ALIVE at the end of it all. Dun wanna start fall semester being half dead instead of being all charged up. Yupyup. Hopefully my body will get better and feel healthy when i wake up at 9 later... pray... HAHA
posted by David at 8/08/2003 01:35:00 AM
The job at interlibrary loan is really pressurizing. Man, i am feeling the mental drain. Maybe it is coz i set too high standard for myself and take things too personally. From the moment i take my position behind the front desk, my brain and my body immediately tensed up into full alert. Everytime the phone rings, i take a deep breathe and pick it up hoping i can successfully assist in the problem and don't have to transfer the call to Tami and co. I really want to do a good job, but i really know so little and yet there is so many to remember and even though i was given a run down of things on my first day of job, i can't remember them all and just totally feeling all shitty everytime i can't solve a problem. Tami, Erin and Vaughda (i think i spell the last part of her name wrongly...) are really trying to be nice and keep consoling me. But they have their own work to do and i really dun wanna bother them too much. But i am just as afraid of screwing things up and god knows what nonsense will erupt from there. major sigh..... feel totally dead everytime tat four hour of work is done.
Answering queries and troubleshoot problems thru the phone is my main job, but on top of tat oso had to do some admin work like checking out books etc. Sigh... screwed up so badly the other day coz i mislooked ONE miserable part of the processing and the whole system had to be halted coz of me. took the tech guy and tami like foreva to figure it out coz i think they neva realise how stupid and careless i was. So nowadays when i try to do the check in i am like really really tensed up. Damn... i am not even familiar with the system and i had to make sure everything is good and correct (what is correct in the first place i am not even sure...) and yeah, correct wat was wrong (as if i know for sure... sigh...) and blah blah blah. You guys get wat i mean? all these would have been easier if i am doing a rookies job. i.e. getting myself adjusted and familiar with the system. But now, instead of working my way up from the basic, i had to also do things the other way round of moving from TOP down to check if the teeny-weeny details are in place and stuff. Really really emotional drain and mentally and physically challenging.
but even with tat, i think this is DAMN SHIOK AND CHALLENGING. i mean even though i am like dying most of the time, i think the rush of meeting those challenge is really freaking great!!! of course getting thrown so quickly into the deep end is really scary and esp when i am such a paranoid person sometimes... but at most drown and get fired laaaa... i mean of course i won't try to be an ass and screw up, heck care everything on my job. but if i dun rise up to the occasion and meet the challenges, this experience of me trying to learn the ropes as quick as i could is really fascinating and hard to come by. Just like i give myself a little pat on the back when i am able to solve a patron's problem by myself, I am looking forward to the end of this month when i can congratulate myself on a job well done at the end of it all!!! GAMBATTE DAVID!!! I CAN DO IT!!!

I think I need to treat my body better than the way I am abusing it right now. Right now I am feeling like dying. Whole body aching like mad and the head is just feeling freaking weird... a combi of headache, lightness, double its size and wateva. Well, it just dun feel right. And I think I won't even go into describing how my body feels. Feeling like expanding and shrinking both at the same time. Lack of energy and just damn freaking weak. sigh... i think regular sleep hours should be better observed. Right now i am sleeping at 3-4 am and waking up at 9 to get ready for work at 1030 all the way till 230. Maybe it is just a matter of adjusting to the new sleeping pattern. Or maybe it is just what I did yesterday.
As usual now, woke up at 9 to get ready for the work at 1030. worked till 230 and had to hang around in the grad library for a interview later at 330 at the dentistry library. It was ok. took about 45 minutes and i was able to secure a job from now till winter. During summer it will be two hour of training hours per day so that means i will be working a grand total of 30 hours a week from now till end of august. But i will onli work around 12 hours come this fall/winter. Which is just about right since i still need to take classes and study after all. so tat is that. But it was really tiring walking around the campus in that extreme hot and dry weather yesterday during the afternoon. Yeah, and i also went up to north campus to meet up with the guys at around 5 plus after i settled everything in central campus. Which by tat time i am really really dead tired liao coz i have not eaten any proper food for breakfast and lunch.
Well anywae, i went over to north coz i was gonna join the guys for bowling afterwards at 6. Wah lao eh... the first game I bowled was a totally disastor. FOURTY SEVEN!!! shit... can't remember when was the last time i bowled so badly. I am neva good. but at least i am always in the 70s region no matter wat. but 47 is just disastrous. Oh, i also realised i was not up to it when i could not handle the 16lb ball even during the first game. felt like a ton to me and i had to downgrade to 10lb to make sure i can bowl for 3 hrs straight. luckily my game picked up and i was even able to bowl the highest 140+ game of my life in the last game. MUAHAHAH. but yeah. realised that something is totally wrong when i was feeling as if i just played a game of rugby and i was sweating like mad and totally out of breathe. well, the day onli ended when hapiz send me back in his car at around 12 after i drop by batcha's place to chit chat abit with him.
oh yeah, just to tie in with my last post. BATCHA HAS BEEN CONVERTED INTO A HERO FAN!!! MUAHAAHAHAH. not bad not bad. He is not totally enjoying the show and i shall say he is going to be addicted with jap drama oledi. MUAHAHAHAHA. nice nice

Just finish the series Hero with Takuya Kimura. Hmm... very nice drama not just coz takuya is in it. The supporting cast did a very splendid job in adding such flavor to the show that it really make it such an enjoyable show.
Started my "new" job on monday. Suffering from severe indigestion due to the info overload. REally got thrown into the deep end and i am still suffering from the jitters. ARGH. hopefully nothing is gonna happen and all will be fine. i am very very nervous coz there is just so much i dunnoe and yet i am doing a job tat is suppose to know everything. hope i manage to understand everything fast and not screw up all the time like i have been doing. ARGH...
