Hmmm... It's summer already?

Ok, so Klapsons called me.
If Tricove (Or Empire States@iluma, if you preferred it that way) calls and confirm,
I will have to make a decision between both.

Just like the classic scene where the guy choose between two girls.
My my, how can i choose? Both are good deal, with their not-so-good points.
It's either shifts which favors me very well, but ended up in hotel industry still.
Or working in another industry, but having not being able to have free weekends.
You see, this is the dilema i'm having now.

I have to think thoroughly.
It is a five-month period i have to go through smoothly.
If i want to get my diploma, that is.

But then again, no matter where i go, i think it is a good thing.
A fresh start. A breakaway from the mundane life of going to school.
It is like an escape to it, especially when you're tired of it.
When you are practically tired of not the problems and questions that are given to you by school, but the fucked-up antics by some of your peers there.
I still can't get it.
Why so competitive?
You can't carry grades to hell. (I wonder how many times i have emphasise on this)

Come on, life is not just about grades and test results.
Life's much more than that.

And also, having the facilitator's slides doesn't mean you gained the holy grail of the problems.
That's not the 'correct' answers. They are just 'best suggested' answer.
Come on, you can't be that daft,right? Especially when you guys are supposed to be smarter than people like me.

Pfft, aww well, shall not be too bothered by such people.
Should never waste my Summer, being bothered by the likes of them.

Ah~~
Summer. Lovely summer.
The season of love~

Ah, two year since my last relationship.
It wasn't particularly a good one. Worst one, if i were to say.

I really wanna fall in love.
But i'm scared. I'm scared of the sad feeling that love entails.
Well... That's why i always say,
"Love is like a fire, and we are just mere moths attracted to it."

But honestly, i just want someone who i can love, and love me back.
Someone who can love me for who i am.
Understands me, even when the whole world misunderstood me.
Someone who can appreciates me, for the things that i do and all.

But aww well....
I guess, no one will want me.
Who would like someone like me? Who has no looks, neither talents.
Don't you agree?

Mmmm... It's ok if it's another lonely summer.
But well, it'd be real nice if i can spend my summer with the one i love.
Though for now, i have not seen that very one yet.

But all these... It's all fate.
Who knows, i might meet my fated one tomorrow?
Who knows, i might just die tomorrow?
No one knows the future.
So....
Aww well~~

Spoils from JUICE and Cosfest XI

Hey guys.
Yes, two-days-late post and i'm not really done yet/
Yes, i'm pretty busy.
Just finished my mix yesterday night.
And preparing for my interview for both later and tomorrow.

Well, i'm in a dilema.
You see, the one i'm going for later on, was an error.
I shouldn't be going there in the first place.
But yea, twist of fate, i'm going for the interview.

I'm more into tomorrow's interview.
Hey, Iluma. You get what i mean? =)

Anyways,past weekend was a blast.
Went with Ray to Zouk for the JUICE DJ Quest.
Ah, first time going there. And man... It's a nice place =)

But then again, i'm not a very night-life person.
So aww well....

Anyways, i've got a goodie bag from there.
And man....
I like them.


Ah, and for the following two days, it's Cosfest.
Man... My third year there.
And....
I prefer the previous years.
But aww well.. I still had fun =)

Enjoyed seeing some of Kaya Brigade members performing.
They're really good. How i wish i could join them up on stage too.
Aww well, next time~

And if you asked me, i find the event itself just ok.
There were good cosplayers, as well as bad ones.
But it seems, what catches my eye was non-cosplayers.

For example
Isn't she cool?


And though this is a cosplay, but it's my favorite shot out of the whole album.
And this green thing, is so so cute.
It shuffles. Haha~


Mandy brought her Pop Sister there too.
My god.... Tsubasa Masuwaka.
And more of her.
Ah~~
I died out of her cuteness there.
I so wanna lay my grubby hands on a copy full of Tsubasa.
But man.... Sure they do run out fast =/

Ah, gotta go.
Top you guys up tomorrow or something.
Or adding it up here.
See how things go....

I'm tired.

Ah, evening guys.
Err, such a cooling evening.
Good night to sleep in and not wake up =)

Ah, went to hospital with mom to check-up.
And then, we went to Chinatown for lunch.
And desserts.
Lovely~ =D

It feels so nice.
To take a break from school.
Especially after the holidays, i kinda dread school.
Perhaps it's due to the lingering after-holiday effect.

But i'm so tired to see people being so competitive.
Tired to see people looking down on another, just because they think they are superior than others.
I'm sick and tired of seeing this.
But i guess, this is life, as they say.

Why can't people just have fun?
Why can't people just enjoy the days in the fun way?
Is grades that important?
Is being in the merits so important?

Maybe i'm just the oddball here.
Maybe i don't see the worth of it, while everyone does.
Maybe i really am a weird ball. But i don't want to see everyone to be unhappy just because of such things you can never bring to the grave with you.
To let it spoil the harmony of everyone.

Then again, it might be just me being overly sensitive again.

But Mom did talk some sense to me.
Which i think it's pretty true.
Sometimes, people around me view me as a clown, of my efforts to make them smile or laugh.
And most of the time, they'd most probably take me as a joke.
Sometimes, i couldn't help but to feel so too.

I must really change my personality.
Otherwise, i will only get stuck in this endless loop, everywhere i go.
I really have to see who i should let myself be myself, and not just to any Tom, Dick and Harry i see.

I should really change.

Why 'Tsuki No Uta'?

Evening people~

Ah, here's the super late post if you ask me.
Gee, after the event, so busy, with work.
Working off my two weekends.

So freaking lethargic this morning.
And i slept in class after school.
It's those kind of deep sleep.
I guess it's called fatigue...

Anyways, i'm a little late for Haru's mini event that was held last Friday.
Yup, the one which i joined, and sang.
I enjoyed it alot.
I'm nervous still. Not something very good.
But i do enjoy being up on stage =)

So i remembered being asked "Why you chose this song?"
I just replied as i liked the song.
But honestly, there's deeper meanings to it.
I was too nervous to say, neither i want to make a melo-drama out of it.

It was the song i always listen to while waiting for the message of the person i like to reply.
Those messages takes ages to reply, even though it was just simple answers.
And evidently, she doesn't seem like she cares anyways.
But i've waited. Waited and waited, feeling sadder each moment i wait for her.
So i kept listening, and understood, and tried to sing it.
Slowly slowly, it became what it is now.

But that was so many years ago.
But anyways, it really spurs me on to sing even better and wanting to sing more.
It spurs my desire to be a singer.

Like just now, i just recorded my cover for 'Unwell', a track by Matchbox Twenty, which i covered when i was entering the singing competition in Primary 6.
I wondered how i would sound like now.
Thus i tried.

It's an A Capella, since i do not have the instrumentals for it.
Besides, when i sang it last time, it was as it is, without instrumentals.
I wanna try to do the same style of cover for 'Wherever you will go' by The Calling.
But i was stopped by Sis. I was singing too loud too late.
Aww well, i'll try tomorrow.

Nite~

12 more hours.

Evening guys... (Or was it morning?)
I'm keeping this short.

I'm nervous.
I'm nervous about tomorrow.
I'll be performing at Haru Bazaar.
And, though singing my forte, i'm afraid i might messed up.

I've gotta keep myself cool.
Calm myself down.
And, have fun.

Anyways, i'll update you guys tomorrow.
Gonna get some shut eyes.

Me and my girls, or My girl and Me? 0.0

Ah, i'm kinda bored.
Even though i'm on AFK mode in Maple.
I'm really kinda bored of it, even after achieving 3rd job advancement recently.
Well, which supposedly is fun.

Anyways, i'd sent in my choices for my attachment, that i'd be going for later this year.
Apparently, i've opted for something other than hotel, though still hospitality-related.
Both are more of a management kind of thing.
Isn't that good? Training me to be a manager, my ambition of following Mom's footstep.

Now that i have sent it in, the next big issue regarding to it is whether i got the places or not.
As well as, if i can ace the interview or not, and get the job.
But aww well, let's not worry to much for now.
What will be will always be =)

Ok, anywho.
Just had a wardrobe change for the girls, though it revolves with pretty much the same clothings.
It's a sad thing to have such a poor owner huh? Haha~ I felt kinda bad for them.
For now, i feel like Kathy and Alison are like 'Ah Beng with her Ah Lian'.
Why? I'll snap it and post it up somewhere ok? =)

Anyways, i just felt like talking about them.
Some little Q&As about them and all. Haha~

So most probably, you guys might've asked "Why a guy like you collects dolls?"
Well, i've heard a plenty of those.
Some even questions my sexuality, which i find totally absurd.
Since when you judge a person's sexuality by their hobby or preferences?

Anyways, back to answering the question, it has to be the fact that i like dolls in general, and generally cute stuffs just appeals to me so well.
I couldn't remember since when i had a liking to dolls. But the first dolls that i fell in love with aren't the kinds which small little girls would want to collect, i'm afraid. As opposed to what others think.
I was first fascinated by Living Dead Dolls, then Super Dollfie, then Pullip, then finally, Blythe.
I was somewhat influenced by Sis, who at that moment had only Piccadilly.
Finding that she was extremely photogenic as well, it sorta bloomed together with my love for photography.

I got Kathy after somewhat of a serendipity.
And that the reason for choosing Kathy over so many different 'models' was that plainly she had bangs (You could now tell how much i love girls with bangs).
You can also say, the girls reflects the taste i have for girls.
As in, i like girls who have bangs (Like what Kathy has), and i do like girls who have soft curls (Like Alison).
I like girls who are cool (Kathy), as well as girls who are cute (Alison).
In general, you could somehow say, you show me a girl like my girls, high chance i might fall for them for their looks.
Though you know, love don't work that way.

For what inspired my styling for each of them? It was something quite interesting, well at least to me.
For Kathy, it started as a Cool/Rock chic. Then i got a punk clothes to go with her, which compliments pretty well. Thus, the image of her being a punk didn't change since then.
What inspired me for her styling was... Actually my taste for punk.
I oftenly think to myself, "If i were to be a girl and a punk, how would things turn out to be like?"
So roughly, from here and there, taking this and adding that, here we have, Kathy the Punk.. Or something like that.

As for Alison, what drives me to get her in the first place, was the theme of blonde girls with soft curls. For some reasons, it appeals damn well to me.
So, by a stroke of chance, Blythe came up with Ice Rune, the Blythe which has soft curls and bangs, perfectly what i've wanted.
And even before getting her, i have already planned what style is in for her.
Initially, i wanted a Ganguro, which Blythe's Silver Snow would perfectly fit the bill.
But due to both unavailability, as well as the price, i couldn't lay my hands on her.
Then since Ganguro was part of the big umbrella of Gyaru, why not Gyaru then?
Thus, everything fit perfectly, especially after seeing Tsubasa Masuwaka.
I was further inspired, as Alison totally fits the style. (Don't you think so? =D )

I guess i'll stop talking about my girls for now.
Guess, if i continue, it'll get weirder.
Well, not to me, but perhaps others.

Anyways, there's gonna be a competition this coming Friday.
I'm keen on joining but not too sure if i'm ready.
Should i?

Saturday, June 04, 2011

It indeed brings back memories.

Ok, officially the start of decision-making day 1.
I've roughly decided what i want to get.
Maybe the leisure management at Sentosa doesn't sound pretty bad.
Well, except for the distance.
But you know, as the saying goes, 'Love overcomes all distances'.
Or something like that.

So at least, one choice is settled.
Now it's just either Olio or Starbucks.
Most probably popular choices =/

Anyways, i'll have the next few days to worry about these things.

Ah, so for today, i was watching TV shows on TV.
It was WWE on TV just now.
So i watched it.

It feels pretty nostalgic.
Since when i was young, i used to catch it, at almost the same time.
Though the feeling is different, it still amuses me.
Maybe those moves that used to amaze me, now seems so choreographed.
But at least now, you know what works and what doesn't.
And some you know the 'oppponent' aids the guy in doing the stunt and stuff.
And the 'bad guy' there is actually an English teacher, and stuffs like that.

Amusing, isn't it?
For some reason, the reasons that it amuses me now and the me so many years ago, are two totally different reasons.
But it did entertained, fulfilling its name.

I could remember i was somewhat of a fan, i came up with my own submission moves.
And perhaps that habit stays, i'm still pretty fond of submission techniques, if i could pull them out.
And perhaps when i have my children some time in the future, i will play with him/her, locking in a submission hold. And something like that.
It's gonna be so fun.

And of course, i will teach them how to defend themselves in the future, like a Dad should =)
Gee, i sound somewhat childish, but i kinda mean it =D

Reality comes knock, knock, knocking on my door.

Before i come in with the colorful events that has happened recently.
Before i post posts about interesting things that has happened.
I have a grave news.
I received the list for my attachment next semester.

After reading, i conclude only one thing.
"I'm screwed. Totally screwed, from head to toe"

Why?
None of the choices are what i have pictured, and majority don't pique my interest.
And those which barely does, are limited in terms of vacancies.
And like myself, many are eye-ing on those as well, each with supposingly better qualifications than me.

Honestly, reality is really biting me hard. And, i really don't know what to do.
But there's a deadline to it.
I really have to think how i should face it.
And in general, how i should face 'Life' as it is now.
