5th may 2007 i just had to talk about today...

today rocks and sucks. it rocks because i met up with shaun koh, prob the only intellectual buddy i have, and though our ideas differ, we understand the passion of our ideas. so thank You God for him. i picked up lee strobel's Case for faith and christ, which will rock, so i will be reading them.

i watched spidey 3! it was emotionally fulfilling, though it wasn't as good as the 2nd one. the scenes were a bit chopped up, as if really separated into frames like in a comic book. lotsa flashbacks, and the story was kinda straightforward. like the part about aunt may advises pete how to propose and how to love. and the struggles that pete were going through, tho we mortals aren't spidey, we still can relate, how we are tempted by power and evil and that sorta thing. and pete was such a cock, but he's still a superhero. arh well. a bit lame how sandman just fades away. i really like the love advises, like how putting that special someone ahead of yourself. and then the last lines which are like totally cliched, about choices and all, kinda nice, how we can all always choose to do good and that kinda thing, but it was something that we would all have come up with from time to time. we always have a choice to do good, no matter the circumstance. we alwaysh have a choice. so we gotta choose wisely. hahahaha. cliched. arh well.

found a new and potential dating place. its called mint museum of toys and there's a nice cafe there, kinda like the miss clarity at bugis. can't remember what its called, but hey, i found another place to bring a girl. hee.

my idea about consilience and unity of knowledge and all that mambo jumbo is really too rarefied. i have to think of a practical use for it, but honestly, there won't be enough because it is really a metaphysical (used in its original sense) idea, and such ideas are like communism and capitalism - its an idea, but something has to happen to that idea to become real, and unfortunately, i'm kinda failing to make that happen. but arh well. meanwhile, i'm still sick and tired about talking about climate change and politicians twiddle their thumbs while the ice sheet melts. ... ... ... totally bored. arh well.

today sucks because i had to waste time at a banquet about someone only slightly related to me. so banquets being banquets, the guests come late and the food comes later. so arh well. 4-5 hours just went out of the window while i was stoning at the food. and to make my blood boil, i practically won't have much of a weekend next week thanks to guard duty. anyway, was so bored that i sent messages to people i haven't sent to for a while. arh well... couldn't help feeling gloomy, grouchy and sulky. haha.

sigh... see, you passed SOC and because of that, you do guard duty so that those who fail can train on weekends. but then again, thats perverse logic so i shall stop thinking about it. but can't help feeling this way. arh well. one guard duty is about 3 RT's worth in time. so... i dunno. i really dunno. but then again, i have night off and that kind of stuff. i dunno. once again, i really dunno.

so yeah. once again, a beautiful wonderful saturday is fast fading, as my friends are having (i hope) fun at zouk. arh well.
