Surreally and ecstatically, the day we've been waiting for.
It feels so weird to not be a cadet any more.

太空战士is Final Fantasy translated to Chinese. Weird, yes!? I never did understand.
On the other hand, it looks like I won't be getting the R2 (japan) version of this, it'll be R3 (asia). Makes it difficult to swallow, for collector's like me, but I should be happy.
BECAUSE IT'S SAVING ME APPROXIMATELY 300-400 BUCKS.
But why do I still feel unsatisfied? -________- |

cross-references: one year back and two years back.
It hasn't been an easy two years, but at least it's over.
Actually, it doesn't feel all that dramatic, since I've already spent the past month or so laxing at home. But worth commemorating for its symbolic value. After 731 days.. today was the day.
Will be spending the next couple of days in M'sia thinking about things. Might post a more reflective post some other time. |

My favourite dessert is orh nee (sweet yam paste). I have fond childhood memories of eating it at big family dinners, because it was also my great-grandmother's favourite dessert so we would always have it at said dinners (until she died). Unfortunately, the original recipe calls for insane amounts of lard and sugar. This is incompatible with the kind of things that modern consumers like, because modern consumers are all either fat or afraid of getting fat (or heart attacks if they already are fat). Consequently,
- It's very hard to find authentic orr nee nowadays. The best approximations I can find are either terribly expensive or exclusive to small Teochew food purveyors who don't get much publicity.
- My mother wouldn't let me use insane amounts of lard and sugar because my dad would be eating it.
In light of point 1, I decided to attempt to reverse-engineer the Ultimate Orh Nee Recipe. This involved a lot of Googling, and dredging up memories of Old People. Fortunately for me, NTUC gives away lard (FOR FREE IS THAT AWESOME OR WHAT) so I can make this as unhealthy as I want it to be, as long as I don't attempt to inflict it on my dad.
Unfortunately it is still not quite done because according to my mother "the taste is authentic but the texture is wrong." I think that is a bad thing. This is compounded by the fact that yams went out of season three weeks ago (damn you, 'A'-levels!). Nonetheless I think I am making good progress.
If anyone wants to be a guinea pig let me know! |

Today I Went To ViVocity To Watch Ninja Assassin With My Friend. She Wanted To See Joon Act As The Younger Version Of Raizo, The Ninja That Rain Acts As.
The Whole Show Was So Bloody, She Kept Saying She Didn't Want To Watch It. It Was Quite A Stupid Show Actually, Most Of The Time It Was In Darkness Because Ninjas Take Out The Lights Before Assassinating Their Targets, So The Fights Were Done In Inky Blackness. Occasional Flashes Of Light Only Served To Reveal Gouts Of Blood Spurting Left And Right. What The Hell.
After The Show We Went To This Place Called Serenity To Eat Tapas, Apparently It Means Snacks In Spanish. I Had Croqueta de Pollo Which Is Spanish Chicken Croquet, And Peras Al Vino Tinto, Which Is Pear Poached In Red Wine Served With Vanilla Ice-cream. My Friend Refused To Take Photos Of My Food So I Got No Pictures To Show. Sucks.
My Friend Was Angry At The Waiter Because She Thought He Thought She Look Old. Then She Thumped The Table And Exclaimed, "I AM A KILLING MACHINE!"
English Is Not My First Language That Is Why I May Sound Like A 5 Year Old Child. Am I Doing It Right? |

because it made me wonder why i bothered being there for you all these time when you really don't care at the end of the day? it could have been a very simple statement of "what happened?" or "are you okay?", but none of that came from you. you carried on happily with your conversation, indifferent to whatever i felt.
well, look, if you have even bothered reading this blog, good. thanks for even caring that slightest bit. but i don't think i wanna meet you on thursday anymore, or even friday.
you really hurt me when you did that. thanks.
[edited]
and you, please stop all these. you can't be having me reassuring you 24/7 just because you're insecure about everything. once a friend, means friends for life. i want to keep all my friends in my life always, if it's possible.
i know i mentioned that after my internship, everything would be easier, better. but things turned out to be far from my expectations, i'm packed with school loads, work loads, and trying to maintain my friendship with other people as well. i'm not saying you're not good enough for me to spend time with, but really, there's so only so much time i have on hand. i'm trying, but at the end of the day, when you're tired from a day of work, there's only so much patience that are left in me.
please stop all these by asking me to make choices, give reasons. it drains me out a lot more than it should. please.
thank you.
