Ephiphany

Here i am sitting at my computer. watching episodes of Ugly Betty. No one to talk too. Not going out with anybody. Parents not home. Brother not home. House is empty. phone is silent.

i just realised how alone a person can feel.....

General Feeling Of Malaise

Malaise... no i'm not sick... just that the past week has generally been blah.... the past week has all been a daze to me. somehow unconciously i have been blocking alot of emotions thus in effect becoming quite numb. i'm sure i'm gonna burst one of these days. this song reflect wat i'm felling now. and no i'm not breaking up.i'm not even attached. just the general mood of the song.

What I'm Not

i'm not that fit to begin with and apparently people at 'work" don't seem to understand. if you can accept the fact that there STUPID people in this world why can't u accept the fact that there are people who are physically fit. its silly. they keep telling me that i can do it and i need to train. well yes i can do it and i can train for it but i can possibly do it in 2 fucking week.

apparently they don't get it. after all i've done. i've gone thru all the silly marches and outfields with out falling out, i can't say that about some of the ppl who are there. but jsut coz i can't clear it or get silver i'm labelled one of the weaker ones. isn't that shitty? i've tolerated all the nonsense that has been thrown at me. i've listened to all your problems and tried my best to answer you medical queries. i've came to do wat i had to do and now my time has come to an end. why can't i leave in peace? is this the thanks i get?

but i shall be patient and wait and weather this out. i have lasted more than one year in that place. enduring all the bureaucracy and hierachy one could ever expect and more.

at least in the real world i can fight back. at least i can voice out my opinion and argue about it. not just sit and bite my tongue for fear of getting punishment. i just tired of the whole system. i love most of the people there but i hate the system.

i've survived so far. i shall survive this 2 weeks.

Conundrum

How Do You Let Go Of Something You've Never Even Had In The First Place?

Saturday, May 19, 2007

Vanity Escalator

ok dismiss the last post. how could i fall in love? i'll never fall in love or rather i'll nvr be in love. i'm too rational to know taht it would not last and u know wat they say about virgos, virgos are the ones who wait and wait for the rite one.. so take no heed of the last post. moving on....

Everyone has taken the Vanity Escalator. i'm everyone has at one point of time. the vanity escalator is located at Plaza Singapura... u know which one? the one that lead to basement 1. as you go up or down at the 2 sides there are mirrors on the wall. everyone and i mean everyone who goes up or down the escalators without fail will check themselves out in the mirror. some even adjust their hair. its silly and fun. i know you did it too.. so have i!

oh there is another shopping center anomaly is at CompassPoint. along the Old Chang Kee row of stalls just wen u exit the mrt station. there is a spot in front of PrimaDeli i think. there you can find a gathering of senior citizens on their wheelchairs. a very amazing sight. these senior folk can be found there most part of the day, of course they will leave back to their own homes wen its time for bed but a variety can be found chattering in front the said bakery.

another shopping center anomaly is a famous one. this one is another gathering that only occurs at the wee hours of night, mainly during the weekends. i'm sure u have seem this one. this occurs a Cineleisure. or rather outside Cineleisure. the young and the beautiful gather here at night. and all they do outside is stand around and smoke and chat. its a wonderful place taht is to see and be seen. that is if ur fashionable and young if not its best to just see from a corner.

one anomaly which ih ave heard off but never seen is the matt convention at Far East Plaza. i have heard many mention this wondrous sight. but i have been to Far East Plaza many a times and only seen a few mudds around. maybe they have moved elsewhere, who knows? but it would be a wonderful sight although an intimidating one if they ever decided to come back to Far East.

i'm sure there are many more shopping center anomalies out there in Singapore. th land of shopping centers. why don't you tell me ur observations. (as if i would get any response. come on ppl. comment!!!)

oh and here is a bonus. My bestest fren whined the fact that i don't have her pic on my blog so here it is!

Lazy Friday

i got off my lazy bum today and went to get suppplies for my craft... no not witchcraft but handicrafts... i finished stuffing the green thing. and he or she looks great....

so anyways i went to Spotlight and Daiso... 2 of my most fave locations. so i went to Spotlight to get somemore felt and beads and i realised something, actually a few things... so first is if you ever need to buy felt, do buy the ones made in Italy. Don't buy the ones made in France. The reason being taht the felt from italy is freaking soft. Very very soft. Secondly, Spotlight has really nice yarn. the variety they have is superb.

these observations have made me buy lotsa felt. i've started on my next fabric toy which is called Liver and Lumpy... compared to "the Green Thing" i think Liver and Lumpy is better. And i have taken up Knitting again after being inspired by the oh so soft balls of mohair yarn..

And and Spotlight has no Soft Toy stuffing!!! Gasp! The Horror! So i went to Daiso, always $2. i concocted this devious plan to buy a $2 cushion and use the stuffing from the cushion to stuff my toys. i went there and to my new horror! there were no $2 cushions. i had to buy a seat cushion. which is different from a normal cushion but it was a blessing in disguise coz it had more stuff to stuff with.

Oh my god! and i bought the B'Day Beyonce Deluxe Edition CD... i'm so happy i could be ORGASMIC...haha how very Isaac to use capital letter words like orgasmic. but i'm really happy that i bought the CD.

this is getting boring eh? why would u wanna know about wat day to day affairs? next thing u know i'll be blogging on how my shit looks like in the morning complete wit pictures! hahaha...

ok lah oklah time to sleepy.. good nitez....

Boredom Inc

thats the company i'm setting up for bored nsf who are going to ORD soon.. i mean really its very boring... i was so bored that i sewed a plush toy or rather a fabric thing... i think its cute...note: part of it is not sewn coz it need to put in the stuffing....
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
can or not i sell these things? can hor can hor?

anyways, i have been growing obscenely fat... oh my god.. i am disgusted at myself... it hard being a guy in this day and age... this a cue for me to begin my tirade against percetions of beauty.. ahem ahem so let me begin...

men are more vain than women.. oh my god trust me.. men are more vain... the amount of time spent on worrying about their bodies and their lack of muscles is worrying... oh and don't forget about the pimples and their facial cleasning regime is as complicated and rigorous as the gals..trust me i know... i lived with a bunch of men for a good year and a half... and its hard to look good.. its easier for the laydees to look good... let me explain...

Womens Beauty: its easy for gasl to look good. just look at the amount of clothes that is avaible for the gals. from skirts to hot pants. its so eay coz of all the choices. and the make up to hide ur flaws and enhance ur features. a girl taht looks hot without make up is a truly beautiful girl. and its easy to stay attractive in the girls world. u just have to slim down. to need to workout much just need to slim down and get the desired silhouette. gal can hide alot fo things.

Mens Beauty: its not easy for guys to look good. first of all an attractive men has to be fit. that means the v shaped body and muscles. which means you have to seriously work out and train. leaned toned fit wateva. next a guys face is naked to the world. we need to have good skin! we don't wear make up (or rather most of us don't wear make up). and mens fashion is restricted to the same ole same ole. don't think of those runway things, lets be realistic. its seriously has not much variety.

in terms of natural beauty. i would say men are the more beautiful of the two. we don't hide behind make up and all that. Men Power? wahaha. its serious takes alot of work to be a modern asian man. its tiring.

Walking

So this being on leave thing kinda boring... i need a job... on the occasions thati do go out and see the world i usually notice how funny ppl area nd observe thier behaviours. its fun. so this is wat i observe wen i went out yesterday. anyways me and me poly frens went to Botanic G. we walked the whole of the Botanic G in true HLM style. den we got bored and went Settlers Cafe hah. but anyways...

ok have you noticed that within a couple one of them has to be hotter than the other. i mean if the guy is hot, the girl is usually mediocre. if the girl is hot then the guy is usually not on par. i mean seriously it even applies for gay and lesbian couples. go see or notice it urself. see if ur gf or bf is hotter than you.

i mean u don't realise if you are in a relationship and u might think that u've scored by snagging the hottest girl or guy ever. but hey have u ever wondered that maybe you were chosen by them just so that you wouldn't overshadow their good looks or hotness? well just a thought. this could very come back and bite me in the ass.

moving on, i really enjoy observing ppl... its my little secret thing i like to do wen i'm on the train and wen i'm walking the streets or in BK for lunch. its fun to ppl watch especially the courtships dance of horny teens. its like so fu nto watch them try to get each others attention and try to conceal the fact taht they really like the other party. first dates are the best to watch. the akward body language and little giggles. i sound like a pervert eh? no lah i'm just a amateur social anthropologist.

the funny things humans do...

Settlers Cafe

oh my i have to say this cafe is seriously fun. it fun to play board games and eat and eat. they have really fun board games. and i must admire the staff coz they have to know every single game there is in the shop. coz silly ppl like us will ask them how to play.hah...

I heart heart Arab songs

i do love arabs songs... it all started with an accidental youtubing of a bollywood (which i love too) song which had a shakira song on it and on that shakira song there was a verse in arabic which i totally fell in love with and thus started my love affair with arabic songs.

arab songs for me concentrate on the voice and the singing. arab singers don't prance around much unlike their western counter parts. they just sing and wear fabulous dresses. and the songs are mostly about heartbreak (story of my life) or about lovey duvvy mushy love. somehow it just touches me. so here a low down on my fav arab singers!

Elissa: i heart heart her the most. her voice is so soothing and she's always so classy. always in a dress thats is sexy yet modest. she's hot. her songs are a reflection of how i am at this current moment. they are simple and yet wonderful poetic. also makes it easier for me to sing along. Zamby Ana is a nice song

Nawal Al Zoghbi: Her big fluffy hair and tan makes look diva ish. i dunno i bet she is but i dunno. she a hot moma. has 3 kids. although she sounds way different wen she singa live and on her cd tracks. i don't care. her songs are sometimes a little complicated. maening her arab language use is very hard to pronounce. she has wonderful and powerful ballads. Sho Akhbarak is good.

Assala: oh my god. she has this really unique voice. high pitched yet not irritating. really powerful voice. gottta listen to her u have too! syrian songbird. most of her songs are happy yappy i'm in love with you kind. Aktar is good listen.

Haifa Wehbe: Sex kitten is all i can say. plays on the sex appeal more than her singing which is ok ok lor. some her songs are fun though. Wawa go listen.

Nancy Ajram: Pop princess. sings in this squeaky voice. catchy songs. nuff said. Ashteky meno is catchy.

Sabah: oh my god. old as hell singer. she's like 80 plus now. and she has had lotsa husbands. on half her age wen she was 60 i think. still singing now. her songs are enjoyable. listen to her just for the fact that she's old as hell and she's rocking it. has a very deep voice. yana yana is good.

Oum Kulthum: One of the greatest singers of the arab peninsular. sadly has passed away. but her songs still rock. she could sing a single song for hours. repeating the lines over and over again but with slight changes in tone and melody. power voice. her songs still rock. Alf leyla wa leyla rocks.

those are the arab singer i listen too nowadays. i could post all their videos here but no. coz i am too lazy. just you tube them. so easy. fine i'll put up the links to the songs on u tube. just click on the song name. bitches.

I Don't Really Like Myself

i have to say that the realisation that i don't really like myself is kinda disturbing. like i'm 22 and still discovering things about myself that amazes me. i miss those times. those times of innocence. the times where we could be ourselves and not be bothered about how we looked or wat we said. so pure so innocent. now its a totally a different ball game.

i have a list in my mind of wat i hate about myself. you guys might think in ur minds that i'm perfectly fine just as i am. oh well good for you. i shan't put the list up now.

this is kinda depressing. as my personal internal conflicts rage on. sleep is good at this moment.

Friday, May 11, 2007

Hum Dee Hoo....

i haven't been posting much these week. for one i was stuck in camp for a good part of the week for which wen i cam home i had the longest sleep ever which was after i went to chinatown to hunt for a Mother's Day Prezzie after which i went to a farewell dinner at 10 Mile Junction.

i have been feeling abit Blah these few days. tired and generally apapthetic about most things. i dunno. maybe its the changes that happening around and i just wanna just not do anything for the time being . i need to sort out my thoughts which i am always prone to do. anyways.

i really don't know why some ppl want to be super skinny. like excuse me why do u want to be a stick? the only ppl or rather race can actually look good skinny are chinese ppl. i'm talking about men here. even the japs don't look good skinny, japs look good tight. chinese ppl can pull off skinny quite well. aiyoh some "fashionistas" guys are so freaking skinny i could snap their arm with my hands. but i guess the lack of muscle mass is topped up by their super bitchy mouths. oh well. personal preference.

and wat do you think of me in green and black nail polish? i mean i've had this silly thing that i have always wanted to do. which is paint my nails green and black. i dunno. wat do you guys think? as though i'm gonna get a response likethat. my readers, whoever u are, does it take a lot of ur time to actually comment on my blog? my words fall on deaf ears.

anyways enuff about my mute readers, if there are any readers at all.

ahah! i have post on Isaac's blog about me! i'm amused and honoured. i'm sad to leave but i will be around. isn't that wat a phone is for? and msn. ppl. msn is gods gift to geeks!

speaking of geeks, i'm beginning to accpet my fate as a geek. i fucking hate the fact that i wasn't born atheletic or dashingly good looking. i was born abit lumpy and oldish looking. ya thats how i am. and i'm geeky. i rahter be in a bookstore than go clubbing . really its sad but hey its true. i can't wear any type of clohes i want like my beloved skinny jeans coz i'm not born to be those model types. i have curves, not lean with bulging muscles. curves. hug me and u'll feel good. coz i'm cuddly. let leave it at that coz i could go on and on about the things that i hate about myself. ya i hate myself. gosh.

way to drop a bomb and have a moment.

I Burst....

U know sometimes bottling up ur feelings is not good for you. its a pressure cooker. and sometimes u have to let it out or not it will burst. well i learnt my lesson. i had a good session on fri night. i feel a great load off my chest. a good sad sad song really helps in getting it out.

i don't have to worry about who is taking over me. coz there is new guy who is gonna be inserted. good luck to him. in a good way.

other things hav been buzzing around my mind of late. can help it...

wat does it mean wen everytime you call i know that its you who is calling without seeing the screen?

why do you constantly pop in and out of my life and torture me?

i dunno why... i hate it....i hate that feeling....

Virgo

Oh my god Read this! This is soo true about my zodiac sign! its long thoguh but a good insight to my personality.

How to Recognize VIRGO

Only mustard isn't a bird," Alice remarked. "Right as usual," said the Duchess;
"What a cfear way you have of putting things!"

Virgo is the sign of the virgin, but you can't take the symbolism too literally. I can assure you that a September birthday is no guarantee of virginity. Although lots of Virgos remain bachelors and spinsters, there are also plenty who finally settle into connubial bliss. They may not do so with any sudden burst of fire and passion, because marriage is not a natural state for the Virginian nature; yet it's surprising how many of them master its teamwork, and they're almost always devoted to their families.

Married or single, it's fairly simple to spot the Virgo in public. For one thing, he won't be making much noise. He's not exactly garrulous, and he'll stand out as a loner. See that gentle, attractive man over there in the comer, with the thesaurus under his arm? The one with the tick-tock mind, clicking away the hours neatly and methodical¡©ly noticing the smallest details? If you look closely, you can almost see him measuring each minute for what it's worth. He's a Virgo. See that quiet girl with the beautiful, soft eyes, waiting for the bus? Notice her spick-and-span white gloves, her cool manner. She'll have the exact coins for the fare ready in her hand. She wouldn't dream of asking the bus driver to change a five dollar bill. She's a Virgo.

Social gatherings are not the best hunting grounds when you're searching for these perfectionists. You're more like¡©ly to find them working late at the office than being gre¡©garious at a cocktail party. It's not easy for Virgos to relax sufficiently to enjoy the carefree social swim, because they're basically uncomfortable in crowds. They some¡©times make attempts to follow the party routine, through pure frustration, but duty whistles too insistently to allow for much frivolity. Sometimes, Virgo can make Capricorn look like a good-time Harry, and that's really going some. You'll seldom see them blowing bubbles in the air or building castles in the sand. Virgos are too busy to day¡©dream, and they're usually too tired at night to wish on stars.

The first thing you'll notice about the typical Virgo is the definite impression he gives that there's a serious prob¡©lem on his mind he's struggling to solve-or a vague feeling that he's secretly worried about something. He probably is. Worry comes naturally to him. One might even say he's affectionately attached to the habit. It's an intangible thing, and elusive, but his delightful smile will always seem to be hiding some great trouble.

Although the ascendant and other natal positions can modify the typical Jack Spratt spare figure, you can gen¡©erally look for a rather wiry build, and unusually lovely, quiet eyes. Virgo eyes are often so astonishingly clear you can almost see your reflection in them. They sparkle with intelligence and clarity of thought. There's a purity and tranquility of expression on Virgo features that seems to deny those secret worries. Most of them are extremely attractive, with delicate noses, ears and lips. There's cer¡©tainly no lack of grace and charm, and there may be a bit of vanity which pops up at odd moments. Virgos are very critical of their own photographs and fussy in the extreme about how they look, both on film and in person. If you're observant, you'll catch them primping in front of a mirror when they think no one is looking. They're always well turned out, and usually meticulous, if conserva¡©tive, dressers. Virgo Maurice Chevalier would rather be caught without a song than without his boutonniere and his tie tack.

The Virgo is normally a small person, certainly no giant, but he's muscular, and he has far more strength than his fragile appearance suggests. These people can stand more intense work over a longer period of time than the tougher, more brawny signs-if they can avoid a nervous breakdown in the process. Although they're ex¡©ternally capable and cool, inner anxieties gnaw away at them, upsetting their digestion and their emotional balance. Tackling more work than they can safely manage, and then straining themselves to the breaking point to fulfill the obligations is behind many a Virgo's ragged nerves. They were meant to be calm and soothing when their intricate and delicate mechanisms are running smoothly and the wheels aren't clogged with brain fatigue

Virgos are unquestionably dependable and sincere. Nevertheless, they're capable of pretending to be sick when they don't want to go somewhere or do something. At these times, the latent Virginian talent for acting comes forth. Occasionally, they manage to convince themselves of such imaginary ills, but the cool eye and clear head of Mercury-ruled people insure that most instances of such self-deception are short-lived. They are fastidious and exacting in grooming, eating, working and romance. Your neat Virgo friend who looks as if he just stepped out of the shower probably just did. He takes more baths and showers than any four people you know put together. He also has very precise ideas about health, little patience with laziness, and very few illusions about life and people, even when he's in love. Male or female, romance never clouds Virgo's eyes with a thick enough film to blind him to any existing flaws and shortcomings in either the relationship or in the loved one. To use the idiom of the day, Virgo always "knows where it's at," though the slang-hating Virgos will shrink in distaste from that phrase.

Of course, you shouldn't get the idea that everyone born in late August or September is fussy, prissy and dogmatic. Lots of Virginians shine with a clever Mercury wit-if you catch their side remarks-and they project a bright, Mer¡©curial charm that's hard to resist. Sophia Loren is a Virgo, which should settle that point once and for all. You may run across a Virgo who is so busy keeping the corners of his (or her) mind neat and orderly that he's become care¡©less about his clothing or his surroundings, which may fool you when you catch him in an off moment. But wait. Sooner or later you'll find him picking up a pin from the rug, brushing his hair or pinching a piece of lint off his shoulder

Although they dream very few impossible dreams, Vir¡©gos often have the inconsistent trait of looking like lovely dreamers-as if they were all wrapped up in the very rain¡©bows their logical minds refuse to believe in or follow.

When they're annoyed by vulgarity, stupidity or careless¡©ness, Virgos can suddenly become cranky, irritable, scold¡©ing and nervous. But most of the time they're gentle folk, and quite nice to have around, especially around the sick room. Some of the finest nurses are born under this sign, full of efficient sympathy and crisp capability. When you have a headache, your Virgo friend is the one most likely to run to the drugstore for you. If you're at his place, he won't have far to go, because there will probably be a miniature drugstore right in his house. His bathroom med¡©icine cabinet is usually loaded down with patent reliefs for stomach-ache, constipation, upset liver or acid indigestion. Peek inside sometime. He'll never take a drug unless he's familiar with each ingredient and how it works, so hell be an expert at telling you which remedy will be best for your headache, depending on what caused it. Virgos who travel often take their portable drugstores right along with them. They may carry an extra suitcase, just for the pills and bottles. If they're used to a certain brand of soap or lotion, they'll tuck that in, too. It would be a disaster if they happened to get stuck in a town where they didn't sell what the Virgo is accustomed to using. He usually buys his soap' and sundries by the case, because it's cheaper-or at least by the dozen-which is another reason he doesn't like to purchase things en route. Sometimes a Virgo will even tote his own water with him on trips. Don't laugh- do you know what can happen to a person's stomach when .certain foreign bodies in strange drinking water enter the digestive system? Virgos can tell you. When these people form habits, they form habits, and taking a vacation or a business trip is no excuse to break them. If he's used to .keeping his socks in the middle left-hand drawer of the bureau at home, that's where the socks go in the hotel room. If it's one of those bureaus with only three large drawers, and no choice of left or right, it can really hang him up for awhile. He may end up just leaving them in the suitcase, but his sleep will be restless. The next morning, the waitress in the hotel dining room will quickly learn that I when the Virgo says three-minute eggs, he doesn't mean I two minutes and forty-five seconds. Or when he says sunny-; side up, he doesn't mean sunnyside down. And hell ' definitely base his tip on her attention to such details.

A Virgo may criticize your statements with hairsplitting arguments which drive you wild, but if you are in a jam, he'll also quickly step in to turn things right side up again • with no motive except to serve. If the job you tackled has you so bogged down in boring details you despair of meeting the deadline, Virgo will roll up his sleeves and pitch in willingly. It's not ego that makes him itch to take over when things are in a shambles. It's just that his orderly Mercurial mind can't stand procrastination, neg¡©lected details or confusion of purpose. He may even straighten things out before he's asked, with no intention of rudeness, because bringing order out of chaos is in¡©stinctive with him. He's the kind of guest who will happily help the hostess clean up after the party. But he's also the kind of guest who will notice immediately that you have carefully placed the Saturday Review on the coffee table to hide an ugly stain, and arranged the cushions on the couch to cover the cigarette holes.

Like the Libran, Virgo is quick to deny his habits and traits. He has an apparent blindness to his faults and he seems unable to see his own weaknesses in as clear a light as he sees everything else. But the truth is that he does see them-and he sees them in such infinite detail that he can't bear to hear them generalized. Try to tell a typical Virgo he's critical, a worrier, fussy, neat or unusually concerned with diet and health, and you'll face a fiat denial. Who, him? He's not like that at all. I still have the ten-page letter from a Virgo housewife, written in a tiny, precise handwriting, in which she carefully details all the reasons why the descriptions of her Sun sign don't fit her, never realizing that the very orderly form and length of her hairsplitting complaint was giving her away.

You should be able to pick out a Virgo in a roomful of people with no trouble. He's incapable of sitting still for very long. After a while, he'll become visibly restless and pace the floor or change chairs like a jumping jack, and project a vague sense of urgency as if he's late for another appointment somewhere. At the same time, the facial ex¡©pression will portray a certain tranquility, hke a mask. The full damage caused by Virgo's nervous intensity seldom shows completely on the outside, but it surely can mess up the digestive system inside. That's why you'll often find them carrying a roll of Turns for the tummy.

It's important to mention here the still unseen planet Vulcan, the true ruler of Virgo, since its discovery is said to be imminent. The discovery of the true ruler of a sign changes the characteristics of those born under it. To give only one example, during the period when both Aquarius and Capricorn were ruled by Saturn, the February-born, such as Abraham Lincoln, clearly showed the melancholy traits of that planet. But when Uranus (the symbol of electronics and space, and the true ruler of Aquarius) was Discovered-in its proper time in the universal plan- \.quarians began to reflect qualities of restless discovery, md a more electric, unpredictable, progressive personality, ;uch as that of Uranus-ruled Aquarian Franklin D. Roose¡©velt. Many astrologers feel that Vulcan, the planet of thunder, will become visible through telescopes within a few years. Shortly before or after Vulcan moves close enough to the earth to be seen, Virgos now living, as weu as those born in the future, will lose much of the Mercurial )ressure that causes the present nervous strain. Mercury ?eing more compatible with the airy sign of Gemini than with the earthy Virgo. The thunderous Vulcan will also yvs to Virgos their astrological inheritance of courage and sonfidence, and will release many of the typical Virgo nhibitions. After Vulcan is discovered, the last remaining rianet to be identified, ac cording to ancient predictions, is 'Apollo, the true ruler of Taurus. Then each Sun sign will answer to the vibrations of its rightful ruler-twelve signs and twelve heavenly bodies. It's interesting to note that Vulcan, in Greek mythology, is the lame god with the brilliant mind. Many Virgos have a slight limp, or else some peculiar and unusual quality to the walk or posture.

You won't find those people lavish in affection or in spending money. They're normally prudent in both areas, giving their love quietly and steadily with little demonstra-tiveness, and handling cash just as conservatively. Strangely, as willing as Virgos are to give efficient service to others, they have an almost neurotic and intense dislike of accept¡©ing favors themselves. They don't want to be obligated to anyone for any reason. And they don't want to depend on anyone but themselves for anything. The deeply imbedded fear of dependence in old age is what makes many of them live so economically as to be called stingy. But that's really too harsh a word. When there's plenty of security and no need to worry about the future, Virgo will spend money more freely, although even then it will be spent with full value received- -or back to the store for a refund.

Though he has absolutely no sympathy for beggars or idle wastrels, he is unfailingly generous when a friend is in trouble. The Virgo who is almost miserly where his per¡©sonal needs are involved will make charming gestures of financial aid to those who really deserve it, or to people he really likes or loves. But you'll never find him throwing money away carelessly, because waste is one of his pet peeves. Virgos labor hard for what they have, and extrava¡©gance never fails to shock them. They usually have a few sharp things to say about spendthrifts and people who are too lazy to work

There's one thing that will remove some of the sting of Virgo's criticism, however, and that's the knowledge that he's secretly as critical of himself as he is of you. He just can't help seeing the flaws, because he was born to notice the tiniest crack in the vase. He won't take to lateness any more kindly than he does to wastefulness. Actually, to be late is waste of a kind. It's a waste of time, and to Virgo, time is the stuff of which life is made. So be punctual if you want to avoid his stinging disapproval. Frank Sinatra's friends have learned that when the singer says "dinner at eight," he means eight, and not eight-fifteen or eight-thirty. Although Sinatra is a warm, fiery Sagittarian by Sun sign, he does have a Virgo ascendant which also explains why he's so painstaking about rehearsing and such a bug for detail in music arrangements. Every note and every tone must be exactly correct when he records or the session will be repeated until he's satisfied. Add such meticulous and impeccable taste to the Sagittarius fire and warmth and you can see why he sells a song

It's hard to understand why Virginians are sometimes called selfish, since they usually find more satisfaction in serving others than in satisfying their own personal ambi¡©tion. The selfish label probably arises from the Virgo ability to say "no" and really mean it. He gives freely of his time and energy, but he won't go beyond the point of reason¡©ableness. When demands become excessive, Virgo will balk and make his objections quiet clear, perhaps too clear. As much as he loves to point out the flaws of others, he fiercely resents open criticism of his own mistakes. When a Virgo makes an error, which will be rare, point it out tactfully if you want to keep his friendship.

Virgos are surprisingly healthy, in spite of their traveling drugstores (unless they worry themselves into illness through overwork, mental tension and pessimism). They take good care of their bodies and they're fussy about their diets. Still, they may complain about minor ailments, such as upset stomach, indigestion, chronic pains in the intestinal area, headaches and foot problems (remember Vulcan, the lame god). They should baby themselves when they have a chest cold, because they're susceptible to lung ailments if their individual planets are afflicted in the natal chart. They may be plagued with pains in the hips, arms, shoulders- gout, arthritis, rheumatic troubles and sometimes sluggish liver and back aches. But the Virgo's concern about his own health will prevent most serious illness. Many of them are vegetarians. If not, you can bet they know exactly what they should eat and how it should be cooked. Now and then you may come across a germ-conscious Virgo who wears rubber gloves to mix a meat loaf or boils his tooth-brush every night, but that's an extreme. Still, even the average Virgo will be sure to wash his hands with vigor before a meal.

Virgos like cats, birds and small, helpless creatures. They also like truth, punctuality, economy, prudence and discreet selectivity. They hate gushy sentiment, dirt, vulgarity, slop-piness and idleness. Theirs is a practical nature, with excessive discrimination-the true individualists, whose keen perception keeps their desires clear of muddy, wishful thinking. A fresh breeze blows through the dream of a Virgo, sweeping it free of wisps of wild, inaccurate fancies. Once he's learned to master life's complicated details, in¡©stead of letting details master him, he can shape his own destiny with more certainty than any other Sun sign.

Cool green jade and pure platinum complement him and bring him luck. But Virginian good fortune is always followed by five kinds of loneliness, and duty's clarion call is never still within these gentle hearts. Don't forget that the shy, wistful smile of Virgo hides a secret or two. Both the quicksilver of Mercury and the distant thunder of Vulcan run through his quiet blood, as he dresses in his favorite colors of gray, beige, navy blue, all shades of green and stark white. Underneath his serious manner lies the alluring aura of the Virgin-purity of thought and purpose, symbolized by the Virgo hyacinth. Once you've known the fragrance of this Easter flower, you're never quite free of its spell. It returns each spring to haunt the memory. Virgo has its own, secret way of making the heart remember

Things on my Mind now

For the past 3 freaking weeks i have been living my life as a civilian. thats is i wake up at 12 in the afternoon. i eat wenever i wanna eat. and i wear wateva i wanna wear. i can't say i haven't been running just not as frequently. anyways being at home most of the time also has meant that i have been doing alot of thinking. i mean wat else can you do after u have done wat u wanted u have done. its gets boring after awhile. even the internet has become sorta boring.

alot of things have been buzzing around in my cluttered mind for the past few weeks. and it has taken alot of my time in bed. thus the waking up at 12 in the afternoon.

i'm gonna ord in june which is like 1 month away. it has gone by so fast. the part of a singaporean man's life that will always stick in his mind. i'll ord in june. which means i'll be jobless. which means no money. i need a job ppl. i need a job that will alst me 6 month till i go to Aust.

I'm gonna ord in june. which means i'll be leaving my appointment and thus i need a succesor. who shall it be eh? u know ppl have been bugging about it for a long time. ppl have been speculating who it is for a long time. each of you (and i said you coz i know some of u read this) have ur own strengths and weaknesses. but can u be a company medic? its not about the rank, i was a coy medic for a long time before i got my stripes. its about handling ur superiors (this is top priority). its about getting ur stores. it about handling ur appointments and MCs. It about handling ppl's qns about medical stuff and health. Its about alot of things. Ya ya i know u all in lull period now. no more outfield wat. no more important stuff to do. maybe. but ifeel its important to leave it in good hands or rather the right pair of hands. i dunno we'll see how it goes. and btw u still got alot activities to do for example: Thailand is coming, NDP ok only 2 but still day to day work (there is ok) needs to be done?

have been thinking about my non existant life as of this moment. i have a sad sad sad life. i know some ppl in Aceh and certain parts of Africa have shittier lives than me but wat i mean is that i'm feeling unfulfilled. a certain part of me is empty. and i sorta know wat that void is. i'm a nice person aren't i? just that i'm the best fren type or the one to confide type or the sidekick type. i'm nvr the bf type or the leasing man type or the one i wanna get into bed type. aiyah once again i get all sad and poo poo. i shall internalise that for awhile and not bother you with my sorrows.

another thing thats on my mind now is that ppl don't update their blog enuff. i mean i ran out of reading material! out of desperation i even read Bryan Boy's blog. out of desperation!!!

hmmm... thinking too much am i? well that wat i do i think too much.

Singapore men + short hair + black = HAWT!!!
