mmhmmmm....... this has a long story to it... this could have been daikai-oh had the last piece in singapore got sold out. i saw it hanging around wheelock 3 weeks ago. this could have been audio technica pro5ms. i tried it on my birthday at gramophone titanium but getting this as a gift is good enough. ouh, so now i understand why it needs battery. my ears are vibrating. thanks for the belated birthday gift...

viceroy free day 3

remember those days back when i was so against smoking/ers? like what happened? seriously. i need a stick now. badly. ok, so today was basically horrible... too horrible that i don't even wanna talk about it. see, it could have been better if only i had smoked. it could have made me think straight. in fact, i shouldnt even agreed to find out more... ahh, i need maggi and i need viceroy. i swear. how come no one in camp smokes viceroy menthol?

See that blotch of red ink on the last digit of my number? it could only mean one thing. I accidentally perfectly brush the red whiteboard marker on my tag or.. one of my drivers itchy handedly accidentally on purpose tried to colour my tag due to the abundance of time and whiteboard markers in my office... #phone rings# naz alves called. bus directions of course. And to think that within the timespan of like 5 seconds while my phone rang, a million and sixty-one thoughts ran through my head like... ''oh shit, do i owe him cash? Is there another outing comin up this weekend? Cos i can't afford to go cos i'm broke.. Should i reject the call?'' and then i picked up... ''hello adam?... I'm at jurong..jurong east interchange, is there a bus to jln bahar?'' so blah de blah, so i suggested to him to head to boon lay instead and take 172. I'm dope. urgh, the gprs in my brain feels rusty. think i'll go for bus rides this weekend. Need to head

Mmhmmm, right adam. Right

Lor 23 Geylang

''Don't send me back to ang mo kio ok?'' he told me ''and then?'' ''aljunied.'' ''lor 23 geylang?'' ''yes'' he replied. and so the trip was filled with business talk and information about the company instead. PIE was heavy plus it was raining... upon reaching near the vicinity, there were aplenty of formal wearers... And i knew we were near....

It's almost done. It all started with a stray black marker laying next to her. Next thing i knew, i was at it. And i didn' stop. I couldn't. If i did, it'll just look like a random and unplanned doodle...

cake hatter mad

Image
True story, i'm no cake lover. And i only took a pinch of the chocolate frosting. Mmhmm, but don't get me wrong. I used to love eating cakes on my (and everyone else's) birthday. So ask,me why someday and maybe i just might tell you cos right now, its like 0230hrs. I just woke up cos my bunkmate just returned from attachment and i'm in no sane position to tell you any cake stories. Hoho.

Us again(s)t the wor(l)d

I meant to end off the previous post with.. ''like the sailor said quote 'ain't that a hole in the boat'' and so my sis said to me..''won't mak be shock to see all those buses when you bring them back home?'' ans i reply,''let it be. Bring it on'' i didn't know what prompted me to reply as such but i did... So bring it on....

Oh gosh, guilty pleasure? I wouldn't say so.. I have yet to get their latest 9th album. Once i get that one, it would be complete. And i'm hunting for their dvd. 10 years of westlife:live at croke park. Haaa... Guilty pleasure. ''like the sailor said quote, a

no more goodbyes

now, i have 4 minutes before i up and strip down and rush out through the front door and head for camp. and within this timeframe, i'll shoot whatever i can and post whatever picture that i have time for. i have no complaints right now, LGH may be creepin' everybody out but today he's nice. in fact, he's at westmall to meet me and escort me back to camp. which is why i am rushing. ok, 2 more minutes. now, is there any other word for less dense? sometimes i don't understand why and how you could be so oblivious. but i guess that's your charm. that's maybe how she got me all confused. and she's prolly still oblivious if she ever come across this, in which i doubt she would, and yes, feelings may go undeleted, i know. now, ok 1 more minute. i'm old, technically a bit more matured, but no. i doubt i am. and no, i didnt go for my planned cycling trip today. my dad brought the lock keys with him. its among the bunch of keys he got for his motorcycle. ok, m

it won't really be long but it will be if i said so and you believed it.....

what am i feeling? i'm still 32.6% sleepy. i'm not fully recharged. and seriously, i get really uptight whenever my handphone rings and i see the office number. i don't think i'll ever get over that. probably until i end my service. tonight i'll head on back to camp. tonight i'll begin grumbling a teeny bit. don't get me wrong, though i love my job, there's still times when i wish i could be rewarded more. boy oh boy, see that boy on the floor with the 'rock on!' gesture, he's got the same vocation as me. and i know he's a car freak. and he loves trucks. like seriously. and he's a regular, he's signed on. he must love his job. or the money. or both. and as i am writing this, there's this hate that's growing. i think it'll go away with a puff which i'm gonna take after i complete this. but till then, i guess i shall update this space a bit more regularly...

she could be ragging for all i care

its not yet done but its almost done. it will be. i promised myself. and im gonna bring her home hopefully someday.

20km shadow profile bi

so, i finally understood and appreciated my 'me' time. burr to the heavy downpour today. was supposed to go out cycling solo for 20km and more. sounds impossible? now, i'd rather cycle than jog any day. i believe its an effective way to lose the pounds as well. the most i did in a day was to cycle for at least 40km. from my home to upp jurong rd would be like at least 13-15 clicks depending on route taken. so yes, why not adam. let's hope tomorrow doesnt rain. "morning after, still lingers, just waking up, i see a shadow of you, making breakfast for two" here's my favourite song of the moment. Westlife with Shadows. originally written by Ryan Tedder(onerepublic) and AJ Mclean(Backstreet Boys), Simon Cowell bought the song and wanted Leona Lewis to record it for her latest album. but later he felt it would be better if his boys Westlife recorded it. so that's what basically happened. any any, i had an interesting long chat with someone. it started out v

i only laugh out loud while watching simpsons. don't ask me why. that show and How I Met Your Mother. ok, back to watching simpsons season 20 and 21! :)

"it's been so long since 2003, everybody's words filled with pleasantry i'd got my world filled with fantasies, lost it all when girl you tripped out on me" deep muziq Varian Lim said: "Truly excellent work, Dhana & Adam! It really made me smile. :) I just played it for Shaun, beaming. He remembers you both and wants to send on his approval & encouragement as well. Keep it up!" ahh, varian. i'd mentioned him here before when i was still young and still new to muziq. it was him that gave me and dhana the motivation and confidence needed. he brought us out to perform. at the NUS, the TRCC and my most memorable, the Esplanade. time... dawn jay made it happened. check out the trailer to the muziq video. "time" gotta give my kudos to dhana for always trustin me in comin up with melodies. i wanna see that boy go far. and i want my songs to be heard of course. dope. : )

reduce speed now. i lost myself. gosh. where was i. driving is surreal. its always been a dream. maybe a dream for every lil boy growing up. to drive a big vehicle. indeed, it sure made me beam knowing that i'm doing so. hold on... i got a call.. Wan Shortstuff called..."Hello belated birthday boy. Happy birthday, hold on, Rynel wanna speak to you." "...haha.. ok.." i replied and then the convo occured... and i was like, "hmmm, nopes. no spare tyre... wiper faulty... smashed side mirror... alternator belt loose.. odometer faulty, no spare tyre... and yes, you can use blah blah blah." and then we ended our convo. so basically that usually marks the end of my day. giving out my precious for use. now i don't know how i landed this job but i simply love it. its as if they knew i'd so wanted to be in transport. oh gosh. previous job was in Toys'r'Us. wasn't that lovely. landing on dream jobs. ___ now, back then in Republic, garf recommen

i pretty much woke up lethargic. i had range on the day before and it finished late. say midnight. i was greeted by birthday songs at the strike of midnight. handshakes and well wishes were aplenty. so i drove my truck filled with people and we headed for pasir laba, iti and back to jurong. at each and every stop, as they alighted to their destination, they headed down to my cabin, reached out their hands high to reach mine. there, they wished me well. a nice gesture indeed in the morning, as of then, it was 0120hours. this plus all the nice people who wished me via sms. you people are lovely. so i left camp, pretty much rushing i would say, yet to bathe. headed home, dropped off my whole week's laundry and bathed. ahhh, soothing indeed it was. i had something up at 11. 182 was slow. not the arrival, but the journey. this is a common flaw on all return trips for 182. they have a long run time. which means, they can't reach the interchange too early. its their schedule flaw. and

meet the new Creative Master Northcord produced Mercedes Benz Citaro EEV Euro5 0530. now this model is a must have for bus enthusiasts in Singapore as SMRT had just purchased 1 of these babies for 1-year trial run. this bus will be the first 100% low floor for entrance to the back. beat that. i just love the dustbin. it simply reminds me of the ones we have in singapore. notice the glue stain mess that i made? the most expensive bus i have in my collection. the last 2 pieces available actually. :) i simply got this Corgi produced MAN bus cos of the brand name. cos the truck that i drive is of the same brand. now all i need are miniature people to pose at the bus stop... my favourite bus model that ever roamed our Singapore streets. the Mercedes Benz 0305. my childhood bus in fact. scrapped in 2000. this bus is nothing but a memory. :) this Drumwell produced model is my definite favourite due to its details and sturdy finish. lovely. im biased. but im so right about it. hong kong

858

wow. i'd actually been outdated on bus services in singapore. here's a planned route amendment on service 858 thats gonna happen by the end of this month. and im so glad that it worked out this way. cos this was a very old plan that got shelved. i so love 858. its the only service where you can sit and stone all the way to the airport. have fun. haha. so basically, 858 will serve sembawang mrt and shopping centre! yessah! i'm a bus driver. in 10 years time.

the other time last week, i was sitting beside an acquaintant in the vehicle. he was driving a huge vehicle of course. we reached a junction and we wanted to turn left into a small squeezy one dedicated lane. the light was in our favour. but my acquaintant didnt press the accelerator. he did nothing. he simply stopped there. i questioned him. a lil furious of course. i asked as to why he didn't proceed to negotiating the left turn. he told me he couldn't. i was confused. if i was in his sit, i'd be able to do so in a jiffy. so as stubborn as a fat kid in bed, he ate up the next lane and tried to do a wide turn. i was pissed again. and furious actually. cos we were blocking traffic. halfway, the turn failed. he needed to reverse. but luckily the light turned green and the blue car left the junction safely. i was darn furious. so in the future trips, we were in the same scenario again. and this time i drove. unlike him, i didnt eat the other lane. i maintained. i full locked

money on toys // not on you

really glad that deane snapped a pic of my bus and its bus stop. now that pic would be worth $86 dollars. $61 for the Mercedes Citaro Euro5 and $25 for the HK bus stop. a lil bird told me an aquaintant just got engaged. a secondary school junior that is. and that's when i thought, dang, i can't even afford to feed myself with food and toys. i can't simply feed another. and lemme tell you, even after ORD, whether i'll pursue a degree or simply become a plain ol' driver, i still wouldn't be able to afford another mouth. or a pair of mouth. ahem. another reason why i served this topic is cos of what my dad was saying... basically, him and my mom signalled to me that its alright for me to have a female counterpart right now. and they were like..."have right? have right? don't deny" and i was like "no...." and it went on and on and on... you know la parents. tsk. if they tried that question a few years back i woulda said 'sure' to that

she's the same colour as my dreams // yay me

____________________ it's been so long since i tyoed some things. and i know why. cos i have readers here hoping to get a good read and i really feel insecure if i couldnt satisfy that need. furthermore, my personal time has been greatly reduced with thanks to other commitments. so this time, i'mma take it slow. i got a few things to look back on and to boost my morale. first thing first. happy advance birthday adam and to all the marchenarians. may i li/love another year. i got me the 3 bus models and the bus stop that i kinda pre-ordered. and i'm kinda pissed with my CORGI produced MAN VOLGREN 24.350. prior to removing it from the box. the tiny wipers came off. probably to the lack of adhesive to it. and so clumsy me who wanted to weewee and rush things, i glued a bit too much. leaving a mess on the windscreen. but oh well. moving on, i got my self overdued gifts. overdue meaning i'd been wanting to get them cos they'd been on the top my list since like ever. i
