Clone Wars - Unabridged (whatever that means)
Count Dooku of the Seperatist Confederation employed the services of Bounty Hunter Durge to destroy Tatooine using the Death Star. Before his plans could succeed, Durge plays truant and was banned by the Confederation.Dooku assigns the demolition of Tatooine to his apprentice Phenom
RoadWalker.Dooku then shifts his focus over to Jabba the Hutt, who was leading the auditing of droids.
Jabba was loyal to Dooku, but to all droids astonishment, Jabba was poached over to the light by the Jedi to join the Galactic Republic (The Jedi are good poachers).
Dooku assigns the auditing of droids to Phenom RoadWalker.
Now, being frustrated and understanding that the fate of the Clone Wars was hanging on a fine line, Dooku unleashes his right hand apprentice, General Grevious.
General Grevious led the fearsome tower and mobile guards who terrorised the land. After sending Grevious a mini lightsaber, Dooku was sure the Clone Wars would be won by the Seperatist. However, to his dismay, Dooku sucumbs to the light again, and becomes Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Now Dooku was really pissed.
Dooku assigns the tower and mobile guards to Phenom RoadWalker.
Phenom RoadWalker, being infinitely powerful, with the tower and mobile guards, the audited droids and the demolished Tatooine, waits patiently for the Jedi to contact him and poach him to the light.
Hais..
So sad... another buddy is leaving.. feels like a domino effect, like one person moving leads to the other...Someone asked me if this is what we should expect every year if we are to stay in government service...or if this is really because the place sucks... think its a bit of both ba... haha
You know it's not going to be a good day when....
....you see a bird flying around in the basement carpark... and your car is the only one that has bird shit on it. %$$#%*&%^$!$^*
Yawn...
Think I'll just write a few words before I go to bed. Dun blame me if it dun make sense. Really tired. Left shoulder still a bit sore. Colleague laughed at me using 'feng yeu' to rub my shoulder cos I had no 'deep heat' in the office. Like 'feng yeu' is some miracle water... cough, drink 2 drops... shoulder blade pain, rub 1 handfull... boss come, open the lid (he hates the smell...haha). And feel like a flu is coming up. Having headaches the whole day. Ah well...better go to bed, tomorrow is a long long day. Got to take 3 hyper-speed statements, go for 'department birthday lunch' (hais.. dun ask), draft case report and review my %@^%$">&^%@^%$# calculation & see why I get a tonnage of 50 instead of 2.
Ok good nite and rest well everyone..

Coffee Addict
A colleague offered me a 3 in 1 when we were having a discussion. Being professional, I declined and continued briefing him on something he wanted to know. Half way thru discussions, the 3 in 1 seemed to looked more and more enticing. Temptation took over and I told him i changed my mind (cheapo), thanked him and proceeded to pour hot water into a cup. I went back to my cubicle with the drink and my neighbour laughed and said that I looked soooo happy over a cup of free 3 in 1. That coming from someone who was ecstatically happy receiving a small pack of free twisties. Hah. Think I better stock up on 3 in 1's. Before I decide to have more discussions at my colleagues cubicle. Haha...
Safe driver...
One sat in my car and said I was a reckless driver. Another sat in my car to verify how safe it was based on the other's account. There were no negative comments, until we almost reached the destination, at which point he said 'u really not kidding when u say u dunno which direction to go one lei'. Wahaha!! I admit.. I am directionally retarded. But he diden say anything about reckless driving le. Hahaha.

Took this from one of the cubicles in the office.

Post-Rojak Action...
Went to Pek Kio for dinner. Halfway walking to the hawker center, we came across some cameramen taking pictures and videos. Looked like they were from Vasantham Central.We went to the next area to avoid the cameras and ordered our food. Before the food came, the camera crew came over to our side and started fliming.
A lady in white (left) went in a hawker stall and the camera crew followed suit. It was then that we realised that it wasn't a film... but rather cameramen taking footage of a health inspector inspecting the hawker stall. Took about 5 mins before the inspector came out, and we heard her asking the hawker to show her his fingernails. After that, she expounded advice on how to keep the stall clean. On a side note, some of the other stall owners were busy packing up their stalls to avoid the lady from going in to check.
I guess this is all in response to the recent rojak incident. And perhaps, a signal to stall owners to keep their stalls clean is better than nothing.

Gonzo - Densetsu no Keiji
Just completed the series. Quite entertaining. Probably not as good as Galileo, but its of a different genre, and there is only one case throughout the 10 episodes. Links at mysoju are broken though, so u've got to either buy it or borrow it from me at the cost of one coffee... haha.Sypnosis:
Kuroki was once an ace detective, but after being traumatized from a case, he became unable to work and was transferred to another division, where he idles his time away. One day, a particular case pulls him out of his rut and gives him a chance to return as a detective.
Who is that....
&*^%$^**%!#^$#... Someone described me to a friend in the office... said he was in a meeting room with a "school boy with a center parting".... Man, I really look like a school boy?
Joke of the day!
D boss came over and told me where he wanted the meeting lunch to be at. He mentioned the location, and I penned it down. I scribbled on the notepad "White Quay". Was wondering where the heck this place is.. somewhere in Boat Quay perhaps.
He looked at what I was writing and darn, the scribbling was legible enuff for him to see. So he corrected me by spelling out the location... H-U-A-T K-E-E...

Not a good day...
No... it's not about the worker trying to commit suicide outside our company building, or the overlengthy Q&A sessions after the presentations, heck its not even the personal non-work assignments that I keep getting.
It's just that a good friend of mine, whom is like a small sister to me, is leaving. It's not that I'm not happy for her or that I don't think that it's a good move, but it just feels like one more close friend of mine is going away.
Oh well, people come and go in our lives everyday. And we should be happy that we made a lot of good friends along the way. Have to remind ourselves that our dear friend would have a better career ahead and things can only get better from here.
Only words left to say are... "Gambatte ne! Karadani ki o tsukete ne!"
(Think it means 'jia you' but take care of yourself)

A bit 4 d earth..
Oh wow!! Everyone really did do their part for Earth Day! Was a bit surprised that about 90% of the condos around us had their lights turned off. The picture above was taken from the balcony of my condo. And the line of light u see there in the middle, is the corridor lights which the condo management probably needed to keep open.
We stayed a while inside, then decided to take a stroll outside, to enjoy the scenery at night and to kill some time before the hour was over. Well, I guess its nice to know that people still stick together when the need arises and we do care about our good earth...
I guess....
I guess the thing about friends is that we know distance or time is never of importance. That we will still be as close as the last time we met, even after years of not seeing each other. That we know that life may not permit the company, but we will always have them at heart.
If u haven't seen or heard from a friend for ages, but when u do, u feel as though that person had never been away, then u'd have a true friend which will outlast even the ages. - Exerpt from the preachings of Phenom
What we were told not to do as kids...
Went for grocery shopping while getting breakfast this morning. Receipt came up to about $60+ and almost half the amount was spent on assortments of snacks and junk food! Haha.. Think I really need to grow up and stop with d junk food.
Point to ponder..
Happiness is as a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but which if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you.

In jungle x, there lived an elephant. This elephant, unlike others, really had an editic memory. He loved bambis and never forgot a thing. After being in the jungle for a while, he became the elephant king.
In jungle x, there lived an elephant. This elephant, unlike others, really had an editic memory. He loved bambis and never forgot a thing. After being in the jungle for a while, he became the elephant king. One fine day, some monkeys enter the elephant's jungle. Being monkeys, they inherently exhibited monkey characteristics. One monkey moved from branch to branch. One monkey swing too hard and hurt his back. One monkey, the coolest one, went to the stream often, to feed on coffee beans. There were tons of other monkeys, like the incredible bungalow throwing monkey, the cheapo twistie loving monkey, the big shot stopping monkey, the watery eyed monkey etc. All in all, they had a good time in the jungle, not knowing that the jungle belonged to the elephant king.
In no time, the elephant king notices the monkeys. He didn't have an inherent liking of this 
species, as his jungle consisted of elite crocodiles, hyenas and hippos. Seeing that the monkeys portrayed a fun bunch to the rest of the jungle, the elephant king decided that some monkeys should be rewarded to show his graciousness. However, it was difficult to reward them substantially, as those within his circle of power might rebel. So, the elephant king decreed that a few monkeys should be given a gift, one that is hidden inside a banana peel.

So, the elephant king decreed that a few monkeys should be given a gift, one that is hidden inside a banana peel. The monkeys heard of the generosity of the elephant king and rejoiced silently. "Well this jungle isn't all too bad... don't u think?" said one monkey. "Maybe there are other jungles?" said the other. A third monkey appeared and said, "This jungle sucks. Some snake just coiled around my tree".
After a while, some gorillas appeared and carried two monkeys to the castle. In the castle, the monkeys were each given a banana peel with something inside. The first one said, "I think its a gold bar". The second one said,"It's light. Maybe its a diamond jewel". And they were piqued with curiosity. The elephant king appeared and was really happy that he had given them gifts. He hurriedly requested that the monkeys open the gifts. Slowly, the two monkeys opened their gift. The crowd of monkeys jumped around and tried to catch a glimpse of whats inside. "Is it a diamond? a gold bar? US dollars?" The crowd gasped as the gift was opened. One kid from the crowd shouted,
"OMG!! It's a 
!!!"
!!!" 
Point to ponder..
When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving much advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a gentle and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares. - Henri Nouwen
Born loser..again
I was going down to B1 from level 4 using the office lift.
I got in, pressed B1 and waited for the lift door to close. It closed, then opened again, and I was still at level 4.
I pressed the close door button once more. Again, it closed, then opened, and I was still at level 4.
I pressed the close door button again. And again, it closed, then opened, and I was still at level 4.
I got out of the lift and cursed $^%^$#%$^&%$.
It closed. And went straight down to B1.

Parked the car. Then detoured to get an umbrella as it was starting to rain. Went to the back of a black car and tried to open the boot, but could not find a keyhole at the usual place of the car boot. Looked again, and realised that I was standing behind a BMW...last time I remember, I drove a Vios, not a BM!...
Another Afternoon..
Had to get back home in the afternoon, cos the building maintenance was coming over to fix a wall crack and a waterless tap. So, after having hotdogs and icecream at Ikea, we headed home to watch "Don't mess with the Zohan" courtesy of a friend from the office. After that, it became pretty bored, and I ended up logging on to yahoo answers to see if I can get to level 2. No its not a facebook application. You just help others answer questions that they enquire.
It's surprising what people ask, and the genre I chose on a weekend was of course (NOOO not engineering or construction or safety) .....anime. Some questions are rather amusing and you'd be surprised what people ask on the net.
Some questions were like:
1. How did Sasuke Uchiha get so fast?
During the Chunin exam, Sasuke got fast enough to match Lee's speed without weights. How is this possible during one month, considering Sharingan cannot copy speed, as it's different than jutsus or taijutsu -- you can't COPY speed.
2. Which episode did kakashi try to teach naruto chidori?
3. Teen titans has been canceled for like ever but i don't get the last episode when Beast Boy tries to make Terra remember him what happens after that i don't get it also i know they might make an un animated movie of it but will the actual show ever return thanks.
4. Where's Sasuke Uchiha actually??? Can anyone tell me...
Best part was that I could answer them. Man, I have to start getting a life!!!

A minute away..
I got into the lift after work. Was feeling a little tired and lethargic. This guy with a green shirt and an extremely bubbly look came into the lift and saw a solemn face in the lift. The lift moved down and I pressed the wrong floor. I had to walk up to the next level. It took me another 1 minute or so to get to B1. I entered the car and drove out of the carpark. Just as I exit the carpark, I saw a blue car at 90 degrees blocking the whole road. Another car with the front busted, was still at the small storage lane. Ironically, as I looked on, I saw the same green shirt guy I met at the lift standing at the blue car holding his handphone. This time, he looked rather worried. Wasn't really in the mood to help, so I moved on to the next lane and drove off. Guess I should count my blessings. If I had not been tired and lethargic, I might've been involved in the accident!! Ironic isn't it?
Waaa piang!!
Was driving along Rochor Rd in the morning when I saw this. I thought "phew, lucky I'm not driving behind that thing"...The 1m by 1m concrete blocks are just sitting on top of that thing with 0 restraints. If it falls, there goes your car! (or if you're unlucky, there goes u!!!)And guess what.... In the evening, I end up behind the same idiotic truck with even more concrete blocks!!
Annual Natas Visit..
This year, we didn't even have to queue to get in... things are really slowing down i guess..
