Art of Taiji and excuses

drove down to AJC today for the interview to do Chemistry relief teaching. it wasn’t an interview because neither was the HOD of science nor the science head prepared. seems to me taiji is not just a sacred art practised more commonly in civil service but in many other disciplines as well. HOD science taiji to Chemistry head taiji back to HOD science taiji to level head. their reason for not accepting my application was because i did not do SPA before. which they should have already known knowing i took the A’s in 2004 and could have saved me the trouble of going down only to be disappointed later. they didn’t even call me to reject, just a lousy sms. win already lor.

 since receving my dearest pink IC slightly more than a month ago, i have been unemployed. just couldn’t settle myself down for a job, tried some hated them. either too slut to accept a job with low pay long working hours or didn’t like the working style there. keep wanting to do something big, achieve something, make some big money from now till august. just somehow the mind is willing but the flesh is weak. can’t explain this very undecided feeling. sucks. it isn’t me. at least what i think isn’t me.

very convenient to blame it on NS, well afterall 1 year 10 months of effectively writing nothing else more than you rank, name and IC, having no autonomy whatsoever over your actions and just following instructions and thinking of nothing else more than when does the pay come, how many days more to ORD and how to get things over and done with does dull your mind. a little. but thats an excuse.

also had my car windscreen wipers changed today. before they were changed, visibility was somehow better without wiping off the rain drops than wiping them off. at least in slight drizzle that is. at least now passengers feel safer in my speedometer-less and airbag-less car knowing the windscreen wipers are good. i asked the mechanic how my dad managed to pass the VICOM test without a speedo and he reassuringly said they don’t check the dashboard meters.  so now we know.

charity chainmails

today i logged into friendster and saw a new bulletin posted by one of my friends. the title of the post was nothing less than attention grabbing.

“a girl raped in PJC”

so i opened it and found it to be a christian chain mail asking poeple to post it on their bulletins and changing the school part to whatever school they were in. the extend of which modern christians have to go to spread the faith. cool man! fucking well done!

i think i will start a chainmail like this:

“you will find your true love and strike lottery if you call 1900-112-6868 10 times now and forward this in your bulletin as “whooo britney & k fed porn vid!”, or else you will be haunted every night for the rest of your selfish life by angry ghosts of dead old man/women who died cause you didn’t donate and are pissed cause they died thinking they would go to heaven and realized it was just a load of bullshit.”

save channel 8/channel u celebs from their pseudo-charity antics. and chainmail at the same time. cool man.

pursuit of happyness

its amazing what a show can do to you. inspires, emotes and humbles. its true that poeple will tell you things you cannot do because they themselves couldn’t do it. everyone tries to justify their own failure.

 is being humble being hypocritical? below is a ficticious conversation between A (elite JC student) and B (main stream Poly student).

B: wha! pro sia! straight A’s leh

A: ai yah no la. JC students know how to study only. not like poly, hands-on and street smart. put me on the streets now i sure die one.

anyway, the feeling of falling in love is amazing. not that i have it now. how i wished i did. that lingering tingling sour sensation. irrational and stupid love.  love and lust are so different yet so alike at least for certain poeple. lust is cheap skate, so easily replicable. falling in love, on the other hand, certainly comes just slightly more often than a shooting star. certainly, my night sky line hasn’t lighted up for a very long time already.

 since it last did 3 years ago.
