The Man Has Returned
Hey all! I know that I’ve been away for a while and I’ve not been updatin’ my blog… I’m guessin’ that some of u do return here to check out if I did update my blog… I know cuz I’ve subscribed to this site traffic report thingy and they keep sendin’ me e-mails… and I did see like a couple of u who visits my blog…
Ok… maybe not a couple… just a few… and that few is like.. one or two of ya.. hahaha…

Oh Well… I’m back now.. and yes… it has been a few months since I last wrote and there’s so many things that had happened…
A band disbanded, an ex who got engaged, new job that I grew to love…
Many many things!!
Chinese New Year, Valentine’s Day & Casino Opening? Bad Idea…
That’s right everyone, u read that properly… 14th February had past and as we all know that it was Valentine’s Day… Nothin’ special to me… I mean, to me, Everyday is Valentine’s Day, it’s just the way u see it… To me, everyday is a special day for me and my girlfriend...
Talkin’ about girlfriend, this is a recent picture of us… Taken yesterday in KFC while we’re out doin’ some window shoppin’ in Tampines…
Cashless but full of wishlist… Wanted to buy almost everything I see..
Anyways, back to the topic… 14th February… A day where there was a few events going on… Valentine’s Day was one of it and I had to work on that day…
Another event that happened on that day was Dzafir’s birthday… Valentino Boy… hehe… Tweet had planned a li’l Surprise Birthday Picnic for Dzafir on that day… It all happened in Marina Barrage and I wished that I could have been there. Saw some pictures of them havin’ fun through Mon’s facebook and I wished I could have been there. They had food, drinks and a couple of games to play.. and they were even flyin’ kites! Oh well, too bad, I had to work…
The other event that happened on that very day… Was Chinese New Year… So that means.. it was a Holiday… I mean, Gong Xi Fa Cai to all my chinese friends but the thing that was making that day very hectic.. was the fact that it was the Grand Opening of the Casino at the place where I was workin’… So…
What u see here in the picture is the way towards the Casino… Now, this is when there was no one around and it was before the openin’ of the casino.
This is totally nothing compared to the day of the opening… It was so crowded… it was insanely packed and everyone keep walkin’ about.. even till 10 plus in the evenin’ where the crowd would normally die down… The past few days of workin’ during the Chinese New Year period made me felt as though I was workin’ in some Fish Market due to the high human traffic… It was crazy.. simply crazy… And somehow, it made me realized how the casino can make a person so addicted to gambling… People just keep comin’ back and they stayed very long inside the casino… Thank god I don’t gamble…
Hopefully that by the time I come back to work after my off days, that crowd will not be like how it was… Hoping for it to be slightly lesser…
Less Cash But Loads Of Items In The Wishlist
When I was walkin’ about with my dearest yesterday in Tampines, I saw a lot of things that I thought of buyin’… but lookin’ at the prices of those things sorta like, stop me in the tracks…. Things are gettin’ more expensive these days… but somehow, I have two things that I so wanna get…
1. 32GB iPod Touch
2. Xbox 360
I’m guessin’ that some of u guys might be wonderin’…”Why would he get another Xbox 360 when he has already got one?” Well… True, I do have one but the current one that I have is damaged beyond repair… It’s gone, dead.. RIP…
The infamous “Red Ring Of Death” took it away… My dad did fix it somehow but it went dead all over again… So I so wanna get another Xbox… My 12 Months Gold Membership is still on and it'd be a waste if I don’t use it…
For the iPod touch… I feel that I need it for my own entertainment use, u know… like listenin’ to mp3 or play some of the games they have… and even surf the net on it’s wi-fi! Thought of gettin’ the iPhone but my Samsung Beat DJ is still new and besides, it has a unique design and not many people own this phone so I’m definitely stickin’ to my Samsung phone.
The End Of A Memorable Experience
Almost 11 years… and only now, it ended…
Sad ending but in a very good note… And the support that everyone gave was amazing… It was so amazing that it somehow brought me to tears. 11 years is a long time… The stuff we went through together was insane… The happy moments, the sad moments, the heated moments… Highs and Lows… we went through it together and somehow, we always manage to pull things off…
Writing songs, playin’ shows, travelling together during tours, the bond… Everything… had been a wonderful experience for me and as well for the guys as well… Those who step on board to play alongside with us, even if it’s just a short while, will always be remembered. My band, my fellow musicians as well as my brothers… those 11 years together had been awesome… No Direction / After The Sky is love…
