nan-tah pls dun let me down
i just read in the news today that the school of humanities and social science is getting a 3 million dollar professorship thingy (i dunno how it works lar, but got money means good thing rite??) then our dear president su went to say something bout the school being the "the soul of the university, from which flows language, literature, culture, the arts and an appreciation of the highest qualities in life," (i quote properly ok, dun later ppl sue me..) i mean its a new school, how can it be the soul of the uni?? its as if suddenly overnite all the engineers kanna pang seh, the one discipline that the uni was specilised in kanna a slap in the face. don't get me wrong lar, i mean im all for making the uni a comprehensive one and giving those ppl at nus a run for their money, but a statement like that juz makes me feel abit arghhh, like in war ur oc sends you to the objective with the most number of enemies to reccee on becoz the other team got one white horse kia, so cannot send them to danger...
then i just checked my ntu email account.. got some email bout our students being in star awards (joanne peh) and what star idol thingy.. then oso become radio dj and dunno what superhost.. i mean seriously?? lim pei is superhero u don't annouce... bahhh!! as our fave rockson would say... KNNBCCB understand?!!
on a side note.. i juz realised that the sea games is on.. wahh lau, really not in tune with the other side of the world sia..

clubbing part 2
so i went clubbing last night... for the 2nd time. yeah don't ask me why i haven't been partying, i think its becos the good club (guvernment) is at the waterfront (which is damn far) and i got no khaki to club with. sooo last night i went to this place called afterlife cos i got an email from the canadian asian student's society bout some 'schoolgirl' party going on lar.. hehe being the tiko pek that i am, of cos i muz go down rite?? well i muz say the feel of it is super chinablack lar... and the shots were 3 bucks (ring ring, chinablack price..) yeah the place was super packed with despo guys (yes yes i belong to that grp don't i??) trying to get lucky.. and hot and drunk chinese/korean/jap girls ..
yeah i din really like to be caught in the mosh mosh of it all so i pretty much hung out at the bar (hey 3 bucks a shot!). kz i admit, another reason why i was at the bar was cos the waitress was damn hot lar!! she was wearing those britney spears school outfit, then fwah... i shud haf taken a pic lar.. she is really damn hot... but oh well.. err ok i shall stop talking bout the hot waitress to protect my reputation (or what's left of it..)
so while chilling at the bar, i talked to a couple of guys (ok im not gay, its juz they were trying to be frenly, or i think they were trying to pick up my 2 gal frens lar.. ) yeah i knew they were pretty much drunk lar, talking thrash with me.. and i basically instigated this guy to buy the waitress a flower.. haha it cost him 6 bucks.. i think he muz be cursing me this morning.. muahahah.. aniwei that's all for my uneventful clubbing night.. had a nice long sleep though.. woke up at 2 and went for lunch at 4... oh and caught fireworks at the city hall area.. nice
alrite some photos of the snow:

i cant take another day without you
cos baby i could never make it on my own
i've been waiting so long just to hold you
and to be back in your arms where i belong
im sorry i cant always find the words to say
but everything i've ever known gets swept away
inside of your love
part of the campus..
and everything i have in this world
and all that i'll ever be
it could all fall down around me
just as long as i have you right here by me

confessions...
hmmm i haven't been brutally honest with folks back home.. i've actually met 2 lovely gals here in toronto, and im 2 timing them.. well they're names are buckie and hoppie ... the reason why i confessed is cos they found out that i was 2 timing em.. so yeah game's pretty much over.
i really liked them alot though, such a pity .. guys i guess its wrong to cheat.. really... lets see.. i thought i could prevent them knowing each other existed because i usually spend my days with buckie and i spend my nights with hoppie. yeah hoppie isn't really a day person.. buckie and i will always chill out at the cafe in school, or she'll keep me company in the long and lonely cold walk back to my apartment. she's absoulutely fantastic lar, always able to keep me awake.. hoppie on the other hand likes to chill with me at nite over at our apartment.. i muz say im always very high around her..
too late, one day i thought i'll suggest a lil threesome.. and things got outta hand, yeah u really don't wanna put them together.. cos they ended up hitting my stomach really hard.. and the following ugly scene erupted.. thankfully i had my cam to take all these down (the follwing pictures might contain scenes of violence, viewer discretion is advised):

birthday weekend
it was an awesome weekend..okay that's all. nah, there's more!! hmm lets see, where do i start?? kz, anyway alex dragged me out to niagara falls to meet up with spenz and some of his frens from uni of waterloo. well i din really wanna go cos i was abit lazy, but then again i really wanted to see the falls at nite and also to go and see more wineries.. and of cos i din wanna be stuck at home doing assignments, so i figured what the hell, just go bahh.. and i think that was a wise choice, since i really enjoyed the road trip.. we din really see the falls this time, just walked around the touristy area for awhile .. i din know they had this uber huge hershey's store there too (its bigger than the one in nyc!!) alrites, i'll let the photos do the the talking:
big hersheys store for big hersheys fans (not me though)
napkin man and his kisses
caught this moose pee'ing in the public rest room
napkin man was at chateau des charmes ..
anyway, so we drove back after seeing the falls at night... n it appeared to be a normal night, with szu han coming over with his ps2 to chill.. apparently normal.. so i was on the computer trying to find victims to talk to... then they switched off the lights and started singing happy birthday (to me of cos!!). yeah so with my back facing them i figured its only like the usual ppl in the house.. to my surprise there were more!! they were hiding in every corner of the house when i came back.. so sneaky.. anyway what was more surprising was the appearance of 2 clowns.. eve and ian!! i was totally shocked lar .. cos they had to travel outta bout 1 hr (for ian) and 3 hrs drive for eve.. soo touched.. keke.. so thanx guys for coming down! and thank alex (for coordinating the surprise and dragging me to niagara as a mini decoy), dan, chewy,jj,szu han, yue fei, yuan dong, eve and ian for making my birthday not a cold, boring and lonely one..
trademark napkin man face
thanx everybody!!
reunited at last
yeah, so after that i caught like 4 hrs of sleep before waking up to go to church.. hmmm the weather was super nice.. it was sunny, and just a perfect sunday afternoon... dragged eve along with me to church whereas the lazy ass horsey continued to concuss... after svc we caught the santa claus parade:
eve was too short to watch the parade from behind.. muahahah
eh have i really grown fatter??!
well happy birthday thomas!!(our sec sch buddy who shares the same bday as me
for lil angel and her lil people
yeah eve and ian had to leave in the afternoon... at nite the house ppl brought me to the keg steakhouse where the gu bak is juz super awesome lar.. we had a fun time talking rubbish about random stuffs.. so wraps up my bday.. oh the university gave me a pressie too! yupps, they gave me an assignment which i had to complete by the 21st (today afternoon) so i had to stay up to finish it since my whole weekend was spent doing all the other stuffs.. muahaha but yeah i managed to hand in a rubbish copy of my work..
well before i go, just like to also thank all the ppl who sent their love from home and elsewhere: hua hui the kua from california, alex the bitch from sydney, brian the indie boy from perth,dan the man from uk,yiffy the cynical angel, rachie the lil angel, mark the bum, angie the auntie,yuen the turtle (although he really forgot.. haha, i feel so loved by my cell leader), clem the usp scholar and band manager of one liner.. yeah and to the hall peeps and whoever i forgot from home!! thank you!!

hmmm well in trying to combat social retardedness, napkin man has succumb to the the stranglehold of retardedness.. while using skype out, he was talking into the mike (external) as if it was plugged in when it wasn't.. so volume and tone was like super soft lar.. im sure the ppl at the end of the line must be straining to hear what he is saying (got built in mike in the laptop, but wasn't talking to it..) .. hmmm it just reminds him of the times when he played for worship without switching on his amp.. bahhh

toronto is a hockey city.. not a basketball one
as promised, here are some pics from the game just now. basically the game was quite boring.. it was the raptors vs the utah jazz.. and toronto juz got owned lar.. the crowd was super sian diao, only got some real hardcore fans, the rest i think like us lar, go soak up atmosphere... truly, i believe an ice hockey game would haf been more exciting than this by like a thousand times.. hell i think hearing yuen do stoopid things is more exciting than this.. too bad an ice hockey game cost like 160 bucks (for the most lao ya seats) and yuen is too far away for now..
kz here are the pics:
this is how the court looks like..
in case you think i just went to take pictures of an empty court
friends and friends of friends..
aniwei yiffy just sent me this link this morning (your last nite) about some girl and how everybody thinks she went for plastic surgery.. im sure you guys are more up to date than me lar.. i just find it funny that's like the topics we talk about. like when i went to ask my housemate chewy and cambridge exchange student (or toronto 'pr') who were from rjc whether they knew a dawn yeo.. they were like 'who?!' then i was 'u know the one that they say went for plastic surgery' and the were like 'orhhh!!! that one!!' haha.. they din really knew her.. but that's how we associate her now i guess...'the girl who had plastic surgery'... ooo and did you know there's an anti xiaxue blog called xialanxue.blogspot.com?? haha.. the blog addy is soo hilarious!!
kz other weird topics that we talk about (with no relevance to real world issues whatsoever) are stephen hawking and wheelchair races.. and which are the most disgusting album covers in all time.. n of cos.. why yuen suffers from insomnia half the time (maybe he is actually asleep, but dreamt that he has insomnia.. and all the insomaniac stuff he does is actually sleep walking,talking, farting whatever.. )
alrites.. now for the revelation of the season.. the reason why i am able to stay sane in this cold cold country is because of the below:

we're done for the week
its been a hella week for me. 2 mid terms and one assignment due, the mid term today was pretty sucky, it was econs.. i now know why i dropped it in jc in the first place. well the stuff we learning is quite interesting, cept that when it comes to the quizzes i get damn kan cheong and then get a mental block. (its all calculations anyway..). the assignment was pretty interesting, hafta do like a chat server program, of cos not like msn lar, the graphical user interface for our program is like talking on dos..
and that sums up the week for me, got 2 more mid terms and 2 more assignments next week.. and something will happen to me nxt week too (guess guess??!! haha im sucha slut) .. but for now i shall enjoy the quaint moment of the night (or morning.. weather says shud haf traces of snow tonite!!) n look forward to the raptors game tmr!! (yupps finally going to watch a nba match).. will post photos tmr!!

had a mid term today, that went pretty well (at least i think i can do the questions, whether i answered them correctly is another matter.. not my problem now). so i decided to reward myself with lotsa tv!! watched like the sportscenter highlights (don't really have soccer here, so its all the hockey and nfl and basketball stuff) and csi miami.. whoo hoo!!
okies, brian asked me to check out his friendster page to see if some video was working, i clicked on it and i found this video . in case you're wondering what those 2 clowns were doing, they were break dancing with their fingers.. haha, really missing them loads man, cant wait to go back home and dao luan with them... oh wells my time will come, meanwhile i'll just make the best of my time here (which is ... staying home and watch tv all day!).

staying or leaving
well some of you might have originally known that i was on the way to germany for my industrial attachment next semester... when i told you guys, i've said 'well its not entirely confirmed because the email stated unless there's some unforseen circumstances, i'll be accepted'.. apparently i struck lottery and kanna the 1% chance of an unforseen circumstance... muahahaha, shite manz if only i actually get money outta it...
but all is well, im just waiting for a final confirmation that the whole germany thing is off and not just that the company don't want me (still got small chance that they'll post me to another company still lar).. anyway im not that eager to know cept for the fact that i need to plan my damn trip back home to singapore lar!!! irritating, its super irritating feeling...
oh anyway im totally fine with not going to germany in case you guys think im feeling sad or anything.. actually quite happy.. haha... but we'll see where the stoopid ppl put me in the end lar.. just don't end up doing my attachment in some ah beng computer shop in sim lim square can ready... um-zi um-zi um-zi

brian sent me this rolling bomber special link.. i've been watching it over and over again, i just think its like the funniest thing i've seen in a long time (other than the scenesters and the end of the earth one..)
although its crappy.. i think the last part there's this phrase that's quite nice:
even if you don't know who you really are
if you have music, you can dance
if you have a playstation you can play games
if you have a cellphone,you can talk for hours on it
if you have a big helping of food, you'll be content...
oh wells, anyways, i have given up on my assignment that's due tmr.. totally dunno how to do, just pass up some crappy stuff that doesnt even make sense.. hope i get 1% outta 9% for it! hee and i never felt better.. i dunno why, it just feels quite good.. ppl you shud try pang seh'ing ur assignments once and try the feeling!!

Your view on yourself:
You are intelligent, honest and sweet. You are friendly to everybody and don't like conflict. Because you're so cheerful and fun people are naturally attracted to you and like to talk to you.
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.
Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.
The seriousness of your love:
You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?
Your views on education
You may not like to study but you have many practical ideas. You listen to your own instincts and tend to follow your heart, so you will probably end up with an unusual job.
The right job for you:
You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.
How do you view success:
You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.
What are you most afraid of:
You are afraid of having no one to rely on in times of trouble. You don't ever want to be unable to take care of yourself. Independence is important to you.
Who is your true self:
You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.
oh wells... if u are itching to take it.. here it is.. quiz quiz

make of break fest 05
here at where's has all the booze gone, we apologise for the lack of coverage of the already commencing 'make or break fest'05' happening in ntu singapore. as our one and only reporter of the games is in fact currently preparing his coverage of the 'slog it out in the cold' festival in toronto canada. well here at where's has all the booze, we aim to please, so here are some highlights from sources close to home.
its been quiet in the foreign camps, no news heard from them so far.. probably keeping a tight lip to their plans. what surprises are in store for us?? lets hope the singapore participants provide some details @ the end of the games.
meanwhile, the singapore camp has been bustling with activity. participants were heard to have stayed up overnight to train. also, its been heard that a good strategy to prepare oneself mentally prior to their event is to play yahoo pool! well whatever works, some prefer to take a pre-game dump, others blog .. to each his/her own.
well now to update you readers on what's happening in the 'slog it out in the cold' festival over in toronto. coaches have been very demanding of the participants, often leaving them clueless over what to do next. some participants have taken to alcoholism and excessive guitar playing.. yet other's have totally given up and started playing computer games. with the festival coming up in about 5 weeks time, we don't see how the situation will improve, God bless the singapore contingent.. hope they do well..
last note: the use of the english language by this reporter is known to be appalling.. if offended, please call 1800-YOUR-GRAMMAR-SUCKS
