Me in the Mirror

I’ve mentioned this before, that my kitchen walls are a little green, or maybe the light is a little green? I don’t know whatever is green, but as I came out of the bathroom with my drenched, untidy hair, and the towel hanging around my neck.

Looked into the mirror.

I see this face full of pimples, like serious dark eye circles, even with the protection of the glasses. Totally looked like this random passerby woman in those horror movies whom you can tell is going to die in the next 5 seconds. There’s this black cloud looming over the forehead (as called in Chinese is 印堂发黑), tired eyes (两眼无神), pale face (脸色发白). The symptoms of being haunted or having some bad omen happening.

Sigh. I have to get my ass out there and do something healthy.

Counting down 30 minutes

And I’m waiting for 6pm to come so I can chiong home to play WoW.

Chinese New Year

This is the time of the year that I really wish there’s this skip button which I can just press and it’ll goes on to the period after Chinese New Year ends. Or, specifically I only wanted the first day to be gone. It’s the day whereby we will have to go to different relatives’ houses, say “Happy Chinese New Year” to each and every person you saw (no matter old or young or same age, female, male, familiar faces or unfamiliar faces), do a lot of business-people-shaking-hands, transactions of mandarins exchanges, and receiving of ang baos (or giving for those who are married). 

If you’re the kind who like to bask in the existence of human beings, then this might be a happy occasion for you, because no matter which house you’re in, you can definitely feel “humans” around. It’s a day which you’re least likely to get haunted (because of all the yang energy the huge amount of humans giving out, all hantus will shun away).

But for me, a person who would rather much stay at home to play WoW. This is a day of torture for me. Well yeah, a lot of people will say, “c’mon man, you’ll get the ang baos”. Yeah, that’s really the only thing that made me move my ass, in fact, I’d prefer just moving my butt to the next block (to where my big uncle is, who I like the most and give the ang bao money the most) and then just go back home to WoW. And obviously, that’s just what I want, and we do know that ideal is something that’s quite impossible to reach.

Anyway, my bro said that’s cuz I’m suffering from “WoW withdrawal symptoms”, apparently he suffered from this before a few years back. But if this is the case, I’ve always had this symptom since 10+ years ago and I doubt WoW was out then.

I was always a withdrawn human being, and I’m pretty fine with living this way, it’s just that I feel offended when I’m being told “f-ed up” for the way my life is lived. Everybody have their own styles/ways of living, you might have thought that my life is f-ed up, but to me, your life is also f-ed up. The basic courtesy you can do is keep your damn opinions to yourself and continue your own f-ed up life. I don’t need people to tell me what I’m supposed to do. You might not like how I think/behave, but neither do I like your way of living. 

Happy Chinese New Year, people.

Have a prosperous year ahead.

Top 5 Most Annoying People You See in the NTUC Fairprice

  1. People who buy frigging little things and die die must push the trolleys around so that they can make the paths more congested, more difficult to walk to places (perhaps they don’t carry a car license so they want to have the feelings of driving things? Or because they holds a car license and wants to drive things around all the time, c’mon la, go be a taxi driver instead la!)
  2. People who buy frigging little things, die die push push trolleys around and leave the trolley in the middle of the passageway like as if their ancestors are the ones who started NTUC Fairprice. These people are a huge contribution to “road jams”, because of people like this, the passageway that is meant to be a 2-lane way is forced to become 1 lane, and people going in opposite directions start crashing into each other.
  3. People who buy frigging little things, die die push trolleys around, leave the trolley at the side of 2-lanes and leave their child in the damn trolley. Oi, parents, let your children walk la! Don’t tell me they don’t know how to walk, most of the kids I see are at the toddler stage, that’s what our legs are for! And the best thing is, only your child is in the trolley! Make him/her walk and you carry the green basket and take your things la! Basket man. If all you want to do is put your kid inside there and push him/her around. Go and buy some trolley and do that in your own house man, the area is flooded enough, it’s not a playground.
  4. People who “drives” a trolley and don’t know how to use brakes. Either that or they suffer from temporary blind sights. Can’t you see the line of people in front of you? Stop pushing your trolley into people’s butt, obviously the person in front of you want to move also right? But due to the large amount of people (and trolleys), obviously he/she can’t get out of your car’s way, duh.
  5. People who pushes trolleys around. (unless you manage to buy $300 worth of things).

SOPA Strike

And… the general public managed to fend off the SOPA(stop online piracy act) from taking effect. Had been reported that US congress are dropping the bills thanks to popular sites like Wikipedia, WordPress, Reddit, Google, Tumblr and many other sites protesting against this policy.

Phew, luckily, if not we will have more trouble than now to grab things from online anymore, imagine Wikipedia down, a lot of people (especially students) will have a lot of trouble getting information for their studies. At least I think I remembered getting information from Wiki before for some of my school work before. And imagine having extra difficulty grabbing songs / movies off the internet (oops! This is still illegal, but yeah).

Anyway, congratulations!!!
