Never Grown up

22nd July 2005, Friday

28 days to go to my Japan Trip...

Guess where is the unsafest place on earth now...Afghanistan?..maybe...Iraq?..definitely...
in fact the entire Middle East...actually the world is an unsafe place to reside in now..
But it would have to be London... exactly 2 weeks after the last bombing of transport system which left a casualty of 56 dead and 700 hundred plus wounded, yesterday another bomb scare hit 3 train routes and bus in central London once more, sending the entire capital of England in a jittery mood...
Fortunately only 1 person was hurt as the bombing was of much subdued magnitude...However the British government would crack their head about how another terrorist attack could break out as they are just at the wake of the last devastating one...

On this final work day of the week, it marks the final official work-day for LF with our laboratory as she would be starting out a new journey in a newly set-up lab 2 levels below us...
The fickleminded girls were having an oxymoronic time as they were urging her to leave for greener pastures yet lamenting that they would miss her antics...
On a personal view, LF would more be remembered for her irregular mood swings, irritating antics and acid tongue...
Not too positive aye... well all the best for future endeavours and hope you be a bit more matured in your relationship handling and interpersonal communication skills...

JxMMy at the meanwhile had kept himself busy the entire day through to solve some niggering problems with our normal functioning process..
Seriously I had never seen anyone with so much passion (muted one though) and initiative with his work.. just for that our meager company should award him some kind of awards..iof course if the rumours were right that they had been giving him extra 7K of pay under the table, I think heought to work like a muted ass (the animal kind) for the company...

One of our past attachment student, Rapheal (not his real name) who would be joining the NUS School of Medicine in the coming week dropped by to had another "fun" day with the girls who had been polluting his pristine-white mind with their explicit adult talks.. obviously he love every moment spent with them that he kept coming back for more...
Our resident mommy-boy had also a bad habit of his own, sharing dubiously unhumorous and "cold" jokes... but that's a trademark of his that would get accustomed to anyway
Well let's hope our future doctor would still bother to remember us a few years later after he had been deeply etched into his medical community and got "brain-washed"...

As for myself, I haven't had that sense of initiative like JxMMy so on a day like this with nothing much to be kept busy with, I would dabble on my webpage creation or searching for information for my forthcoming trip or even watch "Shinsengumi" on my PC...
In fact yesterday while watching the episode titled "Death of a Friend" which showed one of the cornerstone of the early development of Shinsengumi, had to commit "harikiri" (committing suicide by slitting own belly) after going "AWOL" which signifies defection as well...
He had been prepared for it and gladly took his life so as to galvanise the group into a more cohesive unit..
I was struck by emotions as well as Kondo and the rest watched painfully with the slow passing awya of a good friend..even the usually opposing Hijikata, had a wretched weep with Kondo after his true emotions were been unleashed... I was been taken aback with such upheaval of emotions and tears nearly rolled down my cheeks as well but I tried my very best to constrict my tear gland from allowing that scenario to happen, not in front of JxMMy...
Man I really really love this show...sigh..too bad I knew about the outcome of most of my favorite characters...

The outcome of "Rock star: INXS" last evening made 2 of my 3 predictions right for the 3 with the least votes...
Jessica and Neal were actually joined by Tara (who I thinking is definitely walking on a thin line with 2 straight weeks not been voted by viewers).
Neal went suicidal with "Suicide Blonde" as his vocals ability was deemed incapable to carry the band...despite he got that much stage presence..
Neal Ousted

yikes yet another guy gone..seriously not that I'm sexist but I really feel INXS needs a male vocals instead of a female one...
Meantime, J.D. really pissed the likes of Marty, Brandon and Mig with his comments about while the rest of the contestant were trying to learn the INXS songs, he already knew by heart as he loved them so much..kind of boot-licking which was not appreciated at all...
But personally, J.D. is like the manager of Chelsea FC, Jose Mourinho.. He can be pompous and arrogant because he got what it takes to back him up...

The latest article on the TODAY paper from Mr Brown delved on how he remained as a kid that had never grown up, still indulged in collecting Star Wars figurines and listening to John Mayer...
He is after a guy in his 30s with a family and 2 kids..which really made me feel I'm not alone ..in fact I feel guys generally never really will grow up... In all seriousness, they would always be interested in collecting something..be it cars, electrical appliances or even toys...
At least many friends of mine shared such a trait..anyway love the final line:




Yeah, it's cool to be a kid with a job and a salary.

So true indeed...

At the meantime, another local celebrity blogger, Xiaxue had a pretty rollercoaster week...
Her blog had been hacked and posts and whatever lavish format it used to be had all been deleted, and she is not in mad pursue of the hacker..well that's the consequence of hogging the media limelight for so long...well I never read her blog...just a lot of angst and cursing and yes not to forget "whining"... I don't know her personally so don;t feel oblige to take a peek.. also maybe because am pretty freaked out to discover a lot of the pictures she had uploaded had be digitally altered by Adobe Photoshop...she sure had a horde of crazy fans (/hackers) smittened under her skirt with her self doctored pictures...
She could always take solace that she is lined up to be on the next Class 95 Blind Date, propelling her to the next level of celebrity status she yearns to busk in...
Sure is a great opportunity for her ardent readers to have a personal dinner date with her...but I doubt she would be able to "Photoshop"ed the pictures that would be posted on the Class 95 website after the entire event took place and been uploaded...
Got to go..need to check out how to register for the "Blind Date"....


Japanese word of the day: 子供~ko-do-mo~ (Kid) I don't wanna grow up, I'm a Toys R Us kid....
