Oompa Loompa

This was a post i was suppose to publish like last week.

On Sat night(19th Aug) while tryin to top up petrol at Tampines Shell, my freakin keys got stuck at the fuel tank keyhole and broke in two! Freak. Half of the key was still in the keyhole.
Few days prior i can see a crack at the same spot.When i moved it gently i can see that it would break sooner or later.I didnt expected it to break so soon.Damnit.Sat night.My bike shop closes on sundays.So i had to wait till monday to get the extra keys they usually keep at the bikeshop i bought from.And i hafta leave my bike at tamp from sat till mon.Darn
Called dad on dat sat night, came over, and Mr Fixit/Mr Handyman managed to get the other half of the key dat was stucked in the keyhole out.Unfortunately i dont inherit that handyman trait from him.
The freakin keys costs abt 60 plus dollars at Boon Siew.To cut the key, i neen another extra 20 bucks.Hell no.I went to another key cutting kiosk for just 3 bucks.Such a hassle.Need to to and fro about 3 times for Boon Siew Honda to finalise n check the system.

Oh in case ure wonderin my keys has some sensor coz it has a HISS system on the bike.

Eym Arr Tee

For two consecutive days, it started to rain as soon as i stepped out of my front door.and i mean that literally.On Thurs i waited abt 1/2 and hour, left with the bike, started to rain again, waited under the flyover near mandai, and was stuck there for like another hour.Damn.Today, i waited abt 30 mins again, but left and took the train.

It took me abt a freakin hr to reach the workplace, whereas its only abt 20 mins on the bike.Thats the reason why people with their own transport dislike the public one.Well, today i thought what the heck i dont wanna be wet coz i left my raincoat in the office on the first day, and i dont wanna be waitin under no bridge or flyover and wait for cars or lorries to speed by and get splashed by the puddle of rain. Bloody drivers.I thought it would be a nice ride on the train, and observe the people around...babes included..(none on that trainride though).Its been years since ive been on a train.

I hate it when people invade my private space at public rides.Trains especially coz we sit donw and face each other.You feel annoyed,irritated when u get the looks from people.Was there somethin wrong with my hair? Pimples grew at places i didnt see? Some shit in between the eyes? Spider legs at the nostrils? what?.A battle of stares soon ensues.Sometimes w/o knowing it, you are looking at someone for too long(either in fascination,admiration or disgust), that you seemed to be staring at him/her.You will only realise when the subject stared back at you.Why? you are invading his space, his personal area.

By taking public transport you also get to see the latest craze/trends nowadays.Hippest shoes, jeans, handphones.I once bought this sandals, thinkin no one have really used it before, only to be told by my friends that wat i was wearing is like old stuff.Old fashion.Dang.

It rained the whole day today.now is like 4:15 in cck and it looked like its gonna rain again.I reckoned it only stopped for like few hrs in the afternoon here.Dunno about elsewhere though.

August Babies

Didnt know that a number of my cousins/relatives were born in August.Mines coming on Wednesday.Not much for me other than spendin with the girlfriend. Would be very happy if i dont get anythin at all but get to spend time with her.

The best time to be a woman is during ur birthday.Guys dont get birthday presents as much as girls do.Girls get presents from colleagues,parents,boyfriends,husbands,cousins,old sec skool mates,admireres,employers,neighbours,students,suitors,customers..so on and so forth.They get flowers,cups,bears,cards etc(its not dat i want any of those).For guys, we get from.....our partner(assuming we have one).Thats it.If we happen to be so good looking and popular, then only we will get it from the string of admirers.

And i think its easier to get a present for a girl than for a guy.Coz theres more things available n used by them.Lets wait n see how much presents i get on my coming birthday.(This is NOT an attempt by the writer to trigger a reverse psychological reaction to the viewers to buy more gifts for him)

RP

I went to Republic Poly's open house yesterday together with the HODS,VP and P of my school.I must admit the only thing i knew about RP is that they aint got no exams.And i never even saw the school.

Once i reached the school i saw this HUGE carpark which is like twice the size of a multistorey carpark.I belief its being underused.Why the heck do they have so big a carpark and they also have a big open space carpark beside it? It was like a shopping centre.Once inside we were greeted by usherers every 10 metres leading us to the forum.There, loads of RP Managers, Facilitators and representatives talked,explained and introduced to us about themselves and how the school operates.They are a PBL system and its proven to work.Different traditional methods of teaching n learning.n i found out that the facilitators have loads more work to do everyday.All n all, the facilitators,representatives n managers are educated,friendly n articulate bunch of people and i was pleased with their hospitality.

RP's a good choice for students who wants a new enviroment n system.. which works.
