Anyway when to watch movie today, 三岔口, the story kinda incomplete but daniel wu sure look good in his white underwear. And the dessert store at the basement of cineleisure is indeed special, the weird names they give to the dessert like hei she hui milk ice, mix feel, beanie mix etc and the aloe vera tasting like sea coconut. How unique.
And till now, i still cant find a decent job. I am getting impatient. But it is amazing that with the number of people graduating every year, the increasing population, there is still enough jobs for most of the people. Does this mean that this equation can be establish?
Number of graduates = Increased job opportunities (e.g. the building of Integrated resorts) + retirees + other environmental factors
All the rivers run into the sea, yet the sea is not full; unto the place whither the rivers go, thither they go again. (Ecclesiastes 1:7)
Bored.
Katong red bakery
Katong red bakery

Had been a long time since i had laksa that can be eaten out of a spoon. And even a longer time since i had a piece of cake from the red bakery. The red brick buildin still stand where it is and this is still the same place that i remember, the similar forsaken bakery where cakes where once baked with zeal. Taken the photo in case the entire buildin get pull down or something. Anyway, i didn had the chance to witness the glamourous time of it but still it remains as a heritage, a legacy in the hearts of many. The bakery was featured on the tv sometime back which the owner explained the closure due to the uncompetitive method of hand making the bread and pastries and lack of business. Another sad case of the rapidly advancing technology forcing the tradition modus operandi to be discontinued. But truthfully, i couldn tell the difference between hand-make or machine-make pastries, the effort put in and all, to me, bread is bread. A derisive yet salutary imitation i guess.

Anyway the exams marks the end of my polylife, nv understand all this psychological ambivalence. Anyway should start studyin soon, will be on a short hiatus, back after the exams.
we know not, on an april day
how soon the sun may yield to showers;
the heart where joy may seems to lie
hath oft most sorrows to dissemble
we listen to music that brings back
yesterdays musing that slowly mellow out;
underneath the waves, the undertow
this ought not be an end

LATEST TRAVEL ADVISORY
The streets are infested with worms. Black, fat, wrigglin worms that are around 1inch in length. All the way from the underpass to blk29. Dead ones, viable ones all over the place.
Luckily i got this habit of lookin at the ground when i walk, had never found it useful until last night. Simply disgustin, was in the underpass when i thought i notice one movin black object which obviously is the worm la.. WTF!! GOT WORM! so i carefully move my leg so that the worm wun get in contact with me. Still quite cool bout the worm who wanna enjoy the seabreeze when suddenly WAHLAO!!! GOT WORMSSSS!! Arghhhh worms! Completely freak out, abit too much for me to take. YUCKS I HATE WORMS (esp those that move fast). Traumatized lehz. Got bad experience with worms nia, never forgot that time when i laugh at the worm at fc2. "hahahahaa see this worm look like toilet brush!" n it ended up on my tshirt. DUH i had learned and will nv laugh at worms again. So dun laugh at me when i scare of worms mahz.
But how did so many worms got there? Lao he say maybe becoz of the earthquake but quite unlikely, it wasnt there when i went over. Or izzit some dumb person who dun like our SM Goh so bought a whole packet of worms and throw all over marine parade but the worms finished before even reachin east coast. Or from some tree? Argghhh but i cant seems to get the image out of my mind, black worms all over the streets. And some guy simply walk on them, the little worms squashed with their insides spilled out. YUCKS i shall refrain from goin over to east coast for the time being. Argghh n by just typin this i feel itchy all over.

Today is suppose to be the official last day of school. I am this close to gettin the rectangular piece of white paper better known as "diploma". Three years. We didn juz go to sch to aquire knowledge. We went school to get a cert. Its somethin like i not only went to poly, i graduated." This is one of the aftereffects of modern education. Three years of laid back attitude in the area of intellectual pursuits, its not easy to start workin downright hard now. Perhaps abit too late also to knit all those facts into a coherent whole now and sit for the exam in a wk time or so. I dun even have a rudimentary knowledge of some of the fundamental principles. Sad case. I guess it will be revolutionary instead of evolutionary for me to start bia-ing now. Hahaa Anyway, i guess im just not ready, to go out and deal with the ambiguity of real-world situations. But i will work well, hahaa dowan corporate and business leaders to complain bout the younger workers inabilities and renders young people unable to compete once they leave the classroom. (like some of the extremely smart ppl)
