Nope, I was neither abducted by otherworldly beings, nor enslaved and subsequently maimed by teen-nappers bent on turning yours truly into another beggar on the streets of Thailand. Wipe that dissapointed look off your face.

It's been awhile my dear readers. Sincere apologies (if anyone gives a shit.) for my 1 week of absence. I'm sure that many of you missed my opinionated and warped posts.

Who am I kidding? Lol!

So here's the 411 (Street talk meaning "All") on my underachieving life. Make yourself a hot cup of milo and grab your favorite teddy, 'cos this is ain't gonna be a quickie. Rhythms eh?

I had joined the warm and humid crowd to watched the fireworks at the Marina Bay last Sunday (I said I was sorry! Jeez!). Words could describe how way below par it was, but it won't do justice to the time spent on it.

I'm not chiming with them on burning up our parents' income tax, road tax and what-have-the-government taxes just for a celebration of our ostensible independence.
I mean, even so they could have done a good job.

Oh and before I forget to whine, I've been feeling bloated of recently No I was NOT impregnated, you sicko. Stomach infection, that's what the physician said.

Fate has taken thy joy of feasting from thou. Oh, what tragedy. I think they're gonna make that day a national holiday to mark my suffering. Right.

Egoistic dreams aside.

Gimo, Rebecca and me met up with Sam just yesterday. It has been what? 2, 3 months since I last seen Sam. After our usual lack of punctuality and resultant blame pushing, we caught Land of the Dead at Cineleisure.

On a relevant but completely separate note, I dare reckon that Land of the Dead is the superlative horror-survival movie, to date and for generations to come. If you're having troubles staying awake, watch it and you'll have a good reason not to sleep. Again.

Okay where was I? Yah and after which we chowed at Yuki Yaki. They got the yucky (It's a pun. Get it?) part right. The ice cream syrup they provided had enough sugar to kill an adult elephant. And Dom joined us just when we were gonna have desserts. Talk about bad timing.

However the yucky part didn't taint the conventional steamboat ingredients though. Thank god or I would have raze that restaurant to the ground.

Okay moving on to other tedious details of my life.

My entire household for the first time in many years, with the exclusion of Chinese New Year, went together to visit my dying paternal grandpa. Yah he's still alive but doesn't seem to be kicking. No one's sad even though the doctor told us that he won't have long to live.

Perhaps everyone had come to terms with the fact. Or perhaps everyone doesn't care. Either way it's still gonna be a dreadful affair.

Separately while my dad drove along the apparent route to SGH, which turned out to be a moronic trip to some god forsaken shop to buy his cigs, I caught several glimpse of my old neighborhood. Everything has changed. Stirred up bits and pieces of childhood memories.

Maybe I'll go on a photo trip there for my blog if I ever get my K750i. Fingers crossed and hopping Santa's real!

I can see you're bored to bits. But hey, it's my life. Don't expect dog meat out of a hotdog. =)
