Yata.

Bought a camera today.

Yea baby. Gets me 87.57% geared up for the states.

Days left reached single digit today.

Its about 9 days 19 hours and 31 minutes away.

Notice the statistics.

Sad-dist-tic.

Hur hur.

Hur.

I know I am lame.

I get all crazy in the middle of the night.

I sing songs while wearing the headphone.

I cry out hard while watching emotional films.

I swallow oreo biscuits like pigs do to swills.

Maybe not the last point. Its more towards disgusting.

Back to camera.

Always wanted to get Sony T200.

If you don't know what I'm talking bout:

Yea that's what I was talking about.

Arguably the best camera design in market.
I like the black one.
Inbuilt touch screen technology.
Obviously inbuilt. duh -.-
I din't get this though. Was convinced otherwise.
My heart felt so strongly for this. Sleek, elegant and bam.

Got something else instead.
Kinda regretted till about 4 hours before now.
Not so appealing appearance.
It's neither ugly, nor pretty, nor comparable to the one above.
Nothing's comparable to that in fact.

The salesman did his job, no blame attached.
He compared both sets for me.
Landslide victory for the Fujifilm F50 in terms of quality however.
12.0 megapixels, even pores can be seen in pores.
Utterly disappointed in Sony. Poor shots to be honest.
Blurred images, not so good zoom, atrocious flash.
But I ain't a photographer so why should I care so much.
All I need to do is to point and shoot, point and shoot.
But I realised I wanted my grandchildren to see the best pictures from the States in the future.
So yea.

Had all that latest technologies, face detection, auto focus, bla bla bla.
Regretted for quite a while.
Got home, thought about it.
Ahh hell yea. What I need in a camera is it's substance. Not it's looks.
It is not a fashion accessory like sunglasses and shoes.
It's not like I wear it around my waist
And tell people "Look at my new belt".
I'll look like a nutty retard.
It's always been me for almost everything.
Girls too nevertheless. Not that I never knew what I was going for.
Just that sometimes wrong decisions can never be reversible.
Never settled down. Hope is the key.

Anyway. My camera has won quite a number of awards.
Haha. Did some researched at home and BAM.
T3, Cnet, Independent, etc. magazines have it as camera of the month, year, etc.
Proves it's quality ain't it. =)

Interestingly, my camera has this enchanced self portrait capability.
It's said to smoothen skin tones and reduce blemishes and wrinkles.
Tried it. Little difference though.
Maybe because my skin is too smooth to further smoothen it.
Haha. Might work on you guys.
Oh crap I just offended more people.
5.12am. Ciao. 30 freaking minutes spent typing this.
Quality post.
Self praise = no praise. =(

WHAT THE HELL.

I am so screwed. It's 5.21am in the morning and wtf.
I could'nt get to sleep.
Tried sleeping since 3 plus.
Tossed and turned.
But I just could'nt pester myself to sleep.
All these thoughts just keep running through my mind.
I felt just as if I was leaving tommorrow.
Excited.
=)

I have a paper tommorrow.
9am is the time.
And I don't give a damn.
So what.
I have never given a damn anyway.
Haha.

Shall go make myself a sumptuous breakfast.
Sayonnara.
Wasted 2 hours of my life.
=(

Well well well. I am only 15 minutes away from the ringing of my home's alarm bells. Yes it's 5.45am now according to Loke's time and I ain't sleeping just yet. It feels to me that the holiday's just started and I am already so called 'tuned' to that mode. But you know, life just sucks when you perceive something when it ain't supposed to be perceived that way. I guess I can't help it.

Today's the 21 Jan 2008 and someone's big day is arriving. Yea make no mistake, you freaking old faggot.

Anyway, I am kinda happy these few days, spending well worth money on things that I've always wanted. Yes. I made a new pair of glasses and a new pair of sunglasses. That makes me almost geared up for my US voyage. I must admit that maybe I spent too much but to be honest, I never felt any heart pain or whatsoever. Even more surprisingly, my mum, who's always nagging at the cost of the things that I buy, did'nt even made an undertone about it. Perhaps she agrees with me too.

Made it on Saturday morning, 10am, how rare, due to my tendency to wake up late/sleep late. There was this shop inside Park royal hotel which has a wide array of eyewear products. Got myself a Viktor and Rolf glasses and a Ray ban aviator and was pretty satisfied. I trust my taste more than I trust anyone else's.

Now right now, to spice up things a little, if anyone can make a guess of how much the total receipt accumulated to, Santa would personally present the winner a box of chocolates. The person who has the answer closest to the the right answer wins. Just post your answer onto the tag board. Participation is free but children below the age of 18 must seek parental consent before taking part. All the best.

Boring. Guess I gotta go to sleep. Ciao.

7th Jan 2008, fellow night folks.

On this date, 19 January 2008, something tragic happened. I hate to say that, but its something that I have to admit.

MY CONCESSION ENDED.

Alright. Sorry for the hoax. From now on I will pay the all the full fare for the SMRT (Suck Money for Riding on Trains) rides. Damn.

You know guys. There is only 15 days left till I embark on my 7 month trip to the US and I am relishing that opportunity. Time flies and I guess everyone agrees, it seems like yesterday when I was just shitting in my diapers. How cliche.

The trip's 7 months but I believe that I ain't gonna be homesick. Does'nt mean I am a heartless person but just because I feel I am very adaptable. Chameleon is actually my middle name if you don't get me.

My mum is one of the few that I am so gonna miss the most. My god, she's actually the one that I love the most in my life, even though i don't express it out. Even though quarelling, arguing, chiding and blaming are our favourite pasttimes, there is still love in the air. My dad often says we have the same personality, i.e. a strong pride. Face is the last thing we want to lose, and it is very evident in our heated arguments. No one takes the first step back to apologise. I can honestly say that I have always wanted to go forward to converse with her, but I just did'nt do it. That is why our quarrels usually last a month.

Anyway, she's the best mum in the world and I kinda regret treating her like that. Shall skip telling you guys what I miss her about because its gonna take around 5 hours and 15 minutes to finish typing them and I don't have the time for that. But yea, a nice warm hug and a peck on her cheeks would be nice and memorable. Maybe I'll skip the second part because her face is rather oily. hahaha.

I think I am gonna keep this post rather long and wordy because I want you guys to listen to that song while reading. Kinda nice and bubbly, ah duh, as suggested from the title.

Back to the happy stuffs. USA is gonna be so so fun. I'm looking forward to everything, even to the long haul plane rides. I guess I am sick in the mind but I don't care. The chicks there is just gonna make mouths water. You know what I am talking about people, the Kentucky fried chicken. Gonna be so succulent and juicy, but I think i prefer blondes. hahaha.

Okay just a random thing which I happen to see while on the bus. Take a close look at the bottom left of the picture. Read the chinese words that says "Shou Ji". At first, I wondered what it meant, and I am not going to tell you where my wild imagination brought me to. Then after that I took a look at the english word at the bottom, and it read handphone. HAHAHA. I smile to myself on the bus like a retarded. Luckily bus seats are not designed to face each other on the upper deck. How the hell can anyone be dumb like this to print such a thing on a signboard. Mind you, its a signboard, even an indian friend would have done better. Er or maybe not.

Anyway, here is a picture of someone from China presenting her slides in native chinese which we din't understand. Hahaha. She's so gonna hoot me if she sees this.

Finally, to end off, something interesting happened today. Was looking for shades today and went into this shop, saw this stunning piece of Giorgio Armani sunglasses and went on to try it on. Then the salesgirl came and told me this was the last piece bla bla bla. The following is our conversation.

Joshua: "So how much is this?"

Salesgirl: "With degree around $500 plus"

Joshua: "Whoa, so expensive ar got discount or not"

Salesgirl: "Chuckles, you know why so expensive, because Giorgio Ai money"

Bloody hell, anyway, I gave the what the hell face. And after that realised that she was'nt my friend so I laughed forcefully a little.
