Elbowed by a LUNATIC!!!

I'm starting to hate train rides. If my workplace is near, say, a 30 minute bicycle ride, I'll definitely cycle to work. Too bad, my workplace is at Buona Vista, so I just have to submit to the monopoly.

This morning on my way to work on the train, a very frustrating incident happened to me. As usual, I was sleeping on the train when I felt a butt slamming into me as that inconsiderate commuter (she's a woman) rushed to grab the seat. Never mind, continue sleeping. Suddenly, I heard this very loud laughter beside me. I turned and saw the woman laughing very loudly and I can see all the commuters in the cabin all staring my way.

Again, never mind... I closed my eyes and try to pretend nothing has happened. This proved to be a wrong move. Seconds after I closed my eyes to continue my lullaby, I felt an elbow jabbing into my chest! Arrggghhh!!!! That lunatic woman had elbowed me in the chest! I looked at her and she pretended nothing has happened. OK, that was the last straw. I stood up and left that cabin.

If Singapore has got no government and no commuters in the cabin, I will have definitely slapped her fucking face as hard as I can! I have been taught since young never to beat a woman. But that was the last straw I can ever tolerate! You can say that she's a lunatic, but that does not change the fact that she elbowed me in the chest! I am already very frustrated by my "human magnetism" to "attract" weird people to sit beside me on the train. With this incident in the bag, you can be sure I will be very hostile towards such people in the future.

Human Magnet

Somehow, I realised that I am a 'human magnet'. Not in a good way, but in a BAD way... You see, I take the train to work every morning. I will usually take the corner seat if it is empty so that I won't be clamped by two people beside me. You would think that I should be safe by now. You're wrong...

Many a times, the entire stretch of seats will be relatively empty, so only 1-2 people occupying the seats. And many a times, someone (fat, sweaty, having a strange odour and many more!!!) will choose to sit beside me!!! Of all seats in the train, they have to choose to sit beside ME!!!! ARRGGGHHHH!!!!! And because of that, my entire trip from Pasir Ris to Buona Vista will be runied!!! You can say that I can always change seat. But what you don't know is that, the train will be suddenly packed with people once these people sit beside me. So, it is either I stand all the way or I sit all the way but endure their unbearables.

Lamborghini Gallardo

This is one of my dream car, the Lamborghini Gallardo. And I never expected one of my aunties to own one. Nasty... My youngest sister and I were both stunned when we first saw the car. My sister even asked me if that was a Ferrari or Lamborghini. Boy, was I stunned by the presence of my dream car parked right in front of me. You can never understand the kind of astonishment and pressure that the car gave me. Seeing other people's car don't give you that kind of pressure. Knowing that it belonged to your relative and you can get up close and personal with it is a total different feel.


My auntie opened the door and asked me to go sit in it to have a feel. My heart is telling me to go ahead and do it. But my mind is telling me not to because you might just spoil anything. This is the kind of pressure that I experienced. I simply stood there, totally amazed by the awesome presence of the beast. When my aunt left for the house, I was left with a very difficult job. Do I have to close the door? What if I damage the car while closing it? Yes, I know some of you may tell me that such an expensive car can definitely withstand my slamming of the door. But you see, it is NOT my car, so I have to be careful with it. First, I exert a little force to close it. Damn! Too weak! The second time, I exert slightly a little more force than the first and it closed. Sweat... The mere touch of the car is enough to pressurize me to the point of speechlessness. I cannot imagine how I will react if I sit in it.

Even back home, I was thinking about that car. Imagine driving that car to pick up your bride. Imagine the envy look on the faces of your bride's family and friends when they see the groom with this car. Imagine the surprised look on your bride's face when she learnt that you drove a Lamborghini Gallardo to pick her up. This will be one hell of a memory!

I told my family about this plan and they started spoiling my fantasy. "Do you even dare to ask your auntie to borrow the car?". "Do you know how much will the petrol be for the car?". "Do you even dare to drive that car if your auntie do lend it to you?". Come on... It is just my fantasy. Of course I dare not ask my auntie for the car even if I am getting married. Obviously I know how much petrol the car can consume. Definitely I will be scared the shit out of myself if I am to drive the car. But then again, it is just my fantasy... So just let that beautiful imagination remain as such... Lamborghini Gallardo, AWESOME!!!

My computer is down and I am left with a Pentium III 500Hz, almost 7-8 years old computer to use. Fortunately, it is only the power supply that is spoilt. So hopefully, with the change of a new power supply, my computer can be up and running soon...

Supposed to jog in the morning with Guoding, but had to cancel the plan due to wet weather. Hopefully next Saturday will turn out just fine. I haven't jogged for about a week now due to my uncle's funeral and stuff. I do hope to pick it up again as the date for the New Balance RealRun draws closer. Hence, I have to buck up my fitness for the 10km cross-terrain run. In December, I still have the Standard Charter 42km marathon. So my fitness has to be kept at tip-top condition. I will be jogging with Willy, Linda and Soo Tin next week. Hopefully I can pick up my fitness once more.

Went for my uncle's (my father's eldest brother) birthday diner at a Chinese restaurant at Thomson plaza just hours earlier. The food is not as good, but the dessert is the only highlight of the evening. It is black glutinous rice with vanilla ice-cream and coconut milk in young coconut husk. The combination is simply lethal!!! I do wish I can finish the rest of the 3 untouched portions, but I have to remind myself that I need to control my weight. Will upload the pictures once my computer is back.

Played with my sister's iBook earlier and realised it has a photo-taking function. There is a function which can distort your face and create very funny images. I had mine taken and it was plain hilarious that I collapsed laughing when I saw my fat look. I was laughing so hard that tears kept flowing. Again, I will upload the pictures as soon as possible.

Here are the pictures!




Ok, I had problem adjusting the pictures. But nonetheless, have a good laugh at me. Yes, I guess you are already laughing your head off. Enjoy...
