if my soul had speakers...

never a day goes by without me having my singapore designed and made X-mini speakers. this minute device here speaks volume. its humble appearance may deceive you for it boasts 12 hours of loud playback. Well i'm speaking based on experience for i do work at least 12 hours. This baby here may sometimes get a little..noisy, for a lack of better word. It distracts me at times. Even if so, i'll make it hum and whisper in the engine rumbling background. But strangely... it's not switched on today. My mind's laden filled with intriguing questions and bustling thoughts. We were beautiful...

excite

i'd always get excited, jittery and nervous whenever i have to go to work. it's that little tinge of anticitpation. it always occur whenever i'm on night shift. it's that same little butterfly in my stomach kinda feeling in 1996 when i was in the afternoon shift in primary school. lil things like these excites me. seriously. i still love buying bus models. it excites me. especially when i've got contacts who can help me get them. you can't get them in singapore. market's too small anyway. look around and you can never find more than 2 people in a single hdb block who collect such diecasts model. so if you were ever wondering what you can get me on my birthday... then here's the link. click it. buy it. give it. to me. thats right. thank you. the only way that i'm gonna get my ride, is for me to follow this new just made rule in my head. 7th pay is for you. 22nd pay is to save. considering 7th pay equals to 750 without CPF deduction... that should

i wish raya...

i wish my family would go for more raya outings. as in, more than one house. plural. as in, not as early like between 1000hrs till 1050hrs. as in, at least getting to meet more people. as in, i wish more than 2 family unit visits my house. as in, i wish there's a purpose as to why my mom and sis makes them so many goodies and kuehs. as in, i don't wanna be the only one finishing them 8 bottles of orange soda. wait. i also wish that my family takes raya pictures. and thats why this post it empty with no pictures. hari raya always feel sad. though me and my sis used to make a profit of 200plus even though its just going to one house every year. i wish my dad wasnt anti social.  : /

"have a break. hit the brakes." hey you. it's my off day. a lot of 'me' time went into it. i enjoyed that feeling of waking up late. 11am. "so weak. that ain't late", is what some of you might say. but hey, that compared to me waking up at 0445hrs every morning to work. thats a huge contrast there. its exciting how i schedule my off days. usually involves loads of internet time, psp time, nintendo ds time and staring at facebook time. i'd wanted to include bus riding in today's lineup. i deliberated for so long. too long. and in the end i told myself not to. being at home was... perfect. i don't have any other words for it. "last week paid. next week pay" i was paid thrice last month. which included my training allowance. and because they divided my pay into three. i didnt know how much it was till i saw my payslip. $1,780. smooth. basic $1.5k.  its not enough. which is why, this month, i'm working hard. well not that h
