i'll try to add more space for this post..
My sister is actually a really loving sister.. just that at times u know, siblings. haha. Mom bought her a $738 mixer yesterday from IMM. i was the chauffeur and the carrier man. haha. it WAS heavy. at least it was lighter than a gold bar. haha. That thing blends, mixes, minces, and strings pasta..haha. cool huh. I had fun spinning tissue paper around in it..haha.
I'll be waiting to eat more nice muffins, cakes and cookies..hahah..

I ended up polishing my whole drumset. I shall recount how it started.
Guitar polish was in my guitar case, and mom took it out last week to use. so she returns it to me and i open up the case to keep my precious guitar. but ended up playing it. haha. itchy fingers. the strings didn't feel too smooth. so i applied stringlife nano coating. felt much better. and then guitar polish caught my eye. haha. and when i opened the storage hole to see what else i needed to put into the case, i saw the polishing cloth. i'm kinda perfectionist. abit. i like smooth and shiny things. haha. so I start polishing one guitar, then another. then it struck me. if that polish worked so well on the guitar surface, which wasn't actually wood. some kinda varnish or plastic coat. it might work on metal too. an my drums were coated in plastic anyway. Looking to the drums, they looked like if i didn't clean them, the rust would be stuck forever. so i decided it was time. haha. and now, the drums look as good as new. lovely. I shifted the tom positions. feels and sounds nicer. Man, everything's so shiny. love it!! haha. i think i'm gonna polish everything else in my room. Lol! I wonder who will bother to read this super long post. haha. a test of perseverance. i really didnt add spaces afterall. hahaha.
I've so many things so say..
I've cut my hair finally. I decided that it was getting too irritating to keep long hair. ladies. i understand your sufferings.. to a certain extent. haha. hair in your eyes, tickles your nose. haha. yes. so i decided i had to cut it before i went to kelong, so i'd firstly be able to see better, secondly, the wind won't blow my hair all over. haha. and thirdly, long hair gets onliy easily. and fourthly, my face will be more shown to the sun. whatever it was, i was just tired of the long hair. i thought i wanted to leave it long and turn paul twohill. like real. haha. but long hair meant more stress on the roots, and i kept dropping hair. so it was time.
Went to Irene. told her, i want it short. whatever it is, just short. and she did the job. for only $8. ask me for details. she's good.. I think i save alot of money on haircuts by delaying it everytime till it's too long to bear. haha. now i think i need to style my hair..
On wednesday i went with my dad, bro, and 3 generations of my family to visit my grand uncle. from what i know, he lost his mind after he lost his girl when he was very young. He's been in woodbridge ever since. So people, don't take things too hard. anyways, He was recently diagnosed with cancer. man. so he was moved to a hospital for terminal patients. We've been visiting him slightly more. we used to visit him once every year before. Can see that my great grandmother was pretty anxious. so was my grandmother, who's his younger sis. I love them both so much. great granny praised me saying i was guai and came along to visit my granduncle also. And as always, she dug out from her purse later some money. usually it's a green note. but this time, i could feel her love she took out all the paper money that was inside, which was $20 in all, and gave it all to me. i heard only what's left were coins. felt so touched. and i took it as gratitude. Want her to feel happy when she gives to me. i know she really loves me. she's 90+ already. man.. she always buys a tube of yakult everytime she see's us without fail. even if the journey would make the yakult cold no more, she'd still happily bring it us because she remembers how we love so much to drink it when we were young. :) And on the trip back, somehow she and granny and mom started talking about their past. like how she matchmade granny, and her own stuff. haha. interesting and cool to hear it for the first time.
And ever since the first time i drove her in the car, she was so happy. her grandson driving her home. haha. she still delights in it everytime. So i drove that day, to and fro. though it wasn't a good drive that day. Thinking back, I knew God was there all the while. great granny's children have all become grand mom's and dad's already. so she's really like a royalty. u'd have to face hundreds of people if anything happened to her.
Well, that day i was bit tired i guess. I gassed quite abit to push the car faster. then the first incident came when i neded to turn left after a bus stop. but a bus was there, so i went to the second lane in attempt to overtake. but the bus accelerated quickly from the stop too. and i was barely infront of the bus, signaling left all the time, i just accelerated and cut in at the last moment, 2 lanes into the left turn. rowdy driving huh. then after exiting that turn, i was supposed to turn left again. this time, it was a lorry. he was driving fast and i had signaled left a long time ago, but tried to overtake him. he didn't bother or something, and i ended up accelerating and cuting infront in the last moment again. 2 times, same thing, in less than 30secs. man.. but i made the turn quickly, and a really fast speed.. got scolded of course. but u know, lorry and bus drivers(i mean those private onces) usually dont' give a heck about you if you're a car. they have stupid thinking. and if u hit them u suffer u see. they wont even get a dent. crap people. and then incident 3. this was along the BKE. i was on the 3rd lane, and needed to get to left lane 2 in order to exit to SLE. and a stupid Lorry(again) had to cut from his pretty empty lane 1 to lane 2. and when i needed to filter in, i signalled and moved in slowly. there was no more time to find another opening as the split was coming up. and he refused to bulge. he kept the hole so small that i couldnt get in. so i HORNED him.yeah. eventually he gave in and slowed down to let me in. then i checked the left lane. it was empty! as a lorry, aren't you supposed to keep to the left? dumbass. oh well, he later did. and both lanes whent into the SLE. his lane was so empty that his slow lorry ended up 4 cars ahead of me. so when my lane moved off, i eventually overtook him slowly, he was super slow. and still he looked at me. of course, i stared back. caught a good image of his face. he was indian. his lorry was the dodo fishballs one. horrible fella. so he soon was left behind. never to be seen again. so in that trip to the hospital, i got nagged and scolded by my parents more than 3 times. hate those buggers.
okay. nmber 4, and this is the last one. on the way back, i was at a juction waiting to turn right. u know the green arrow kinda thing. the pedestrian crossed half already, so i was cleared. then 2 lanes turning right, i just followed the other car on the left as a shelter. and this pedestrian has to cross later, and walk slowly. it was only when i was innfront of him waiting to go that i realised a car was coming. and very fast too. the other turning car had gone because the pedestrian wasnow infront of me. so i was stuck there. and the STUPID driver coming from across decides to speed up even more. White honda accord. yea. powerful car i know. i don't know what the hell was in his mind. He didn't slow down probably because the lights were turning or something. he was the only car on that road. and he decides to step on the gas and zoom past my back really quickly. dumb idiot. and so mom and dad in the car has to go.. AHHHH!!! so what is this poor little probation plate driver expected to do? firstly he already has enough stress driving beside an overly cautious father who blocks the side mirror at most of the turns in attempt to help look for traffic. and in danger of being nagged or scolded again. He now has a slow pedestrian blocking his front, and a zooming car at the back, in the middle of a nowhere traffic juction, with a royalty in the middle seat, and 2 screaming parents? i tell you, he just has to shut off his ears. let the pedestrain pass, hope the fast driver drives well, and doesnt hit. then jam the accelerator at the earliest chance, and get ready for a shower of bullets from his parent's mouths, and then in return, give a defense reasoning. then also remembering that there is a speed camera ahead, capping the road at 70kph.. don't forget he drives a big car too. which obviously is longer, and needs more attention to corner properly. and remember his longer butt to watch out for.
I get into trouble so many times, get so many scoldings, naggings, having to bear with parent's "traditionalism" and naggings as a result. why do i still fight and constantly push forward? because i know that my siblings behind me will live a better life. I've to be strong so i'd be able to survive my parent's parenting mistakes. and i still go through it because i know my siblings will have a better life. I experience life ahead of them so they can learn from my experiences. this is how much i love my family.
So if you have older siblings, remember to thank them, and appreciate them for what they've went through for you that benefitted you. even if it wasn't their choice to be the firstborn, they still took your bullets and gave you room behind to grow better.
These weekends have been rather busy. i've changed over to w330 recently. I haven't been around there for sometime, and things have changed. boss's exhausted, things seem like they're in a mess. u know weeds have been growing for sometime. i guess i've been trained when i was in w101 to be a weeder. first you need to identify the weeds, and then deal with them. i hope things change pretty soon, before this cell collapses. It's gonna be David Rising soon. If have to be, i'm guna start moving like a tsunami. With God, I have hope this cell will be saved. not like i've not done it before, of course, i'll need God.
the past weekends have been sy rogers, then phil pringle, and casey treat. all awesome people. this week's mark conner, and then it'll be easter and then Benny Hinn. and i'm in the choir. been practicing a baritone for 3 weeks now. then Belle says i should have gone to tenor. so i'm guna fly over there tmr. by the powerful kick of belle. sorry jinyu, i know u miss me. and jon, u take care of him alright. haha. tmr's the full dress rehearsal, need a white shirt, dark tie, and black pants. the last time i remember my black pants don't fit anymore. need to buy a new pair. haha. as you can tell, i've been eating and sleeping alot more. haha.
and if you've been reading, which i doublt anybody will bother to read it all the way here. knowing that the window in my blog is very thing. makes each pararaph much longer. so, yea, i'll be going to kelong with a whole lot of people in a tour bus. 2 day 1 night trip, to relax, eat, and sleep, and love the sea, with it's breeze, and the sunshine, enjoying the fishing. haha. throw the bait and wait for the bell to ring. Lol. I just want some tan that's all. and some sotong at night.
i'm still deciding if i want to go into my dad's company to run the business, or go do my own stuff. after all this my dad has done for me, i think i'd do as he hopes for me. he's been trying to talk me into the business. but i have my own dreams. but the money on his side is good. but i can earn alot later if i go about my own dream too. i'm guna write a few books at least. that's what I'll do.
Music exam will be coming up in this september. have 3 songs to learn perfectly and memorise. and a whole lot of weird scales to practice, and to get familiar with reading notes for sight reading in order to pass grade 5. i've never taken any grading before. can i do it? i did grade 5 theory last year from nothing. i'll have to practice more.
i enjoy vocal lessons. nice friends there that i wish to get to know better. keith, his friend, jieying.. and i'm serious with drum lessons. Daniel's a good drummer. want to learn it well. want to learn bass too. along the way i'll pick it up. and i need to improve on guitar. want to learn how to shred. but i need to practie scales too. and i need to build my body too. exercise. and i have 5 modules this sem. i heard they're pretty tough. but sinve i have no IS, i'll be slightly better off. i've been pondering joining a cca. maybe a sport. and after my diploma, i want to go into bible school. and meanwhile, make things happen in my cell and transform it, bring it back to life. at the same time, i love my friends, Ken n Joleen, Purple and steph. fishing with ken, and overseas and so many things with steph n LP, and i've been wanting to go kboxing with kristen, and and and... i still need to make money so i can reach out to people, and i also want to go about serving God. the prophecy's been given. maybe i just shouldn't get married huh? i'll get all my life to do everything. ahh..and i still have few more huge unwritten dreams which will take some time and money to start and achieve.
i know what. i'm gonna pray. :)
