She accepts everything in the past and lives firmly in the present. To me, who wanted to redo what i did in the past and make things right all over, crystal's innocence is too bright, which hurts me even more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For almost 1 &amp; a half years, the happy times, the sad times, the painful times, were all spent with crystal. i truely felt tad i was the only one who cld bring her happiness. the crystal who wld start sulking whenever i dont reply her msgs. the crystal who wld get angry whenever i stared and commented on how nice or how good other girls on the streets were. the stubborn crystal who wld always skip meals &amp; yet tells me to have mine on time so tad i wldnt suffer frm gastric pain. i am the one who knows her best. the crystal who looks strong on the outside but is actually very sensitive. the crystal who always puts herself in second place, caring for me more than herself. the crystal who has always been by my side. the one who needed her the most, was me. But in the end, i kept all these thoughts in my heart. i was never honest in front of her. she was always by my side... the things i thought i cld say anytime... i never got to say them even once.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5447103178376947708-4216508329397911247?l=takingthedayoff.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://takingthedayoff.blogspot.com/feeds/4216508329397911247/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5447103178376947708&amp;postID=4216508329397911247' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5447103178376947708/posts/default/4216508329397911247'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5447103178376947708/posts/default/4216508329397911247'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://takingthedayoff.blogspot.com/2009/01/saturday-03-january-2009.html' title='To my one &amp; only.

We were really “budget” lar. Lol! Ordered take away frm the food court and had our little “gathering of the gays” over at the rooftop garden. Went to catch Bed-time Stories right after tad. It was a pretty awesome show to catch with the one (or ones) u love at the cinema this holiday. (: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, ending the day off just lik tad was gonna be a complete turn off, so the guys scoot’ed  over to my place for a hardcore mahjong session. Haha! Christopher joined us too. It was just plain wild I’d say. My Aunt frm M’sia came over to my place along with her family last night too &amp; the place just got really crowded. As usual, she started asking abt my girlfriend and stuff like tad… Interrogation! Hah! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The guys and I then headed down to Mt Faber. Climbed this frigging long flight of stairs tad was so poorly lit and all of were alrdy panting the moment we reached the top. Managed to check out tad really pretty Christmas tree at the top (: but we weren’t able to snap many photos ‘cos of the poor lighting. To view the photos tad we took last night, pls drop by Keng Wee’s blog. Lol&lt;br /&gt;Mmkay,  there just wasn’t much we cld do at Mt Faber. So we decided to go to Vivocity to check out the girls! &amp; nt forgetting  the Christmas tree at the sky park too... Haha!! I mean, wads wrong with guys looking at girls? Oh, we took this really dark path in a forested area all the way to Harbor Front. The entire stretch of the way walk was plain dark with no fu**ing lamp post whatsoever nearby at all. Man, I tell u… I was so frigging scared tad I actually held on to Irving’s hand lik a total gay thru-out the journey. &amp; so did Km!! the entire surrounding was just pitch black!! U can’t blame us for being gay at tad point of time!!! …come to think of it now… eww… I held a guy’s hand! =.=” haha! But our little adventure was really fun nonetheless.      &lt;br /&gt;All of us were pretty much tired out by the time we arrived at Vivo. Rested &amp; talked cock for a couple of minutes before we hit the streets &amp; called it a day.  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Anyway, I headed down to Crystal’s place right after we left Vivocity. Somehow, I just wanted to see her so desperately. And the moment I got off the train, I started running like there’s no tmr. Called her as soon as I arrived outside her place and we ended up chatting for quite a long time. Though all I did was saying things tad made her cry. Oh man, her eyes were alrdy swollen when I met her… thks to the previous entry in my blog. But things turned out fine in the end &amp; I promised her tad I’d wait for her… be it a day, a year or a life time. (: I just love the way she is. I love everything abt her. I just love her. Haha.&lt;br /&gt;After a couple of recent events tad took place this month, I just felt tad it’s necessary to let the ones u love know just how much they really mean to u before they’re gone.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5447103178376947708-5958247557597001889?l=takingthedayoff.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://takingthedayoff.blogspot.com/feeds/5958247557597001889/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5447103178376947708&amp;postID=5958247557597001889' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5447103178376947708/posts/default/5958247557597001889'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5447103178376947708/posts/default/5958247557597001889'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://takingthedayoff.blogspot.com/2008/12/friday-december-26-2008.html' title='Friday, December 26, 2008'/><author><name>Samuel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03638303797099339825</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447103178376947708.post-4481711639283933407</id><published>2008-12-25T01:13:00.002+08:00</published><updated>2008-12-25T01:28:58.494+08:00</updated><title type='text'>It's Christmas...</title><content type='html'>My so-called "surprise" wasn't really a success. somehow after tad incident, i've finally come to my senses...

Monday was teevee hardcore so today gotta get out of my house for some breather. oh, &amp; to my surprise, I was the first to reach tiong bahru (: haha! a great accomplishment really. plus I reached 5 mins before the meeting time. paiseh, side track a lil’ bit…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh man, I just got to voice out my grievances! well, somehow or rather I just felt lik taking the bus instead of the train frm my place over to tiong to meet up with the guys. so I took bus 195 frm queenstown to tiong bahru. the journey took arnd 30 plus mins &amp; this half-an-hour or so was just hell man. this uncle sat next to me the very moment I got to my seat. &amp; hell, he must have been smoking before coming up to the bus. the smell of smoke all over him was… bad. real bad. I even gave him “the eye” &amp; was so close to saying “hello? anybody on this bus got a air freshener or sth? this guy seriously stinks.” worst part of all, he sat right next to me throughout my entire trip. sian to the max. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alrighty, when we arrived at Clark Quay, we cldn’t figure out how to get to the studio. lol. all we had was an address with this really weird street name. took us a very long time to find the studio. =.=” &amp; the best part was… we left the place in less than 10 mins. the tanning lotion was freaking ex lar… $60 plus for a small tube. plus tad’s the cheapest &amp; “nt so good” type available in the studio. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Feeling a lil’ disappointed, we set off for peninsula plaza to check out some “cool &amp; hipppp” clothes. but, we ended up wasting our time once again. hah. Had dinner at one of the “cafes” over there…at least, tads wad they call it. dudes, I gotta admit tad the fried rice there was really good. thumbs up! LOL!! went over to the nearest Watsons after dinner to get some sun-tan lotion to end off the day. &amp; it was so much cheaper, $12!! haha. let’s hope it’s sunny tmr!

Really needed tad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The overnight camp at pasir ris park was totally awesome i'd say. &amp; Wei Wen must have had the time of his life last night. oh yea, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to Wei Wen &amp; Jia Hui! (: okay, so in my previous entry, the "secret" plan tad ww came up with was to surprise his girl at her chalet... with our help of 'cos. haha! i didnt really take part in the "operation"... :( had to look after the bbq pit &amp; everyone's belongings in the TENT! yea, talking abt the tent, it was a SUPER DOWNSIZED 2-MEN TENT! let's see... there was Wei Wen, Leon, Bryan, Anson, Jit Siang, Teng Yu, Shawn, Jason, Boon Kiat, Daxino and I staying overnight for the camp but we only had a 2-men tent. LOL! but it didnt really matter i guess... 'cos no one really wanted to sleep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though i didnt witness wad actually happened over at the chalet, i heard frm the others tad things went really well. congratz ww! &amp; after the entire operation came to a closure, the rest of us somehow started telling ghost stories &amp; the "63 omens to doomsday". teng yu started this if i didnt rmb wrongly... he even went to talk abt the signs one wld see before one dies. haha. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So all of us really got into the mood for ghost stories &amp; went to sit on the mat over at the grassy area just in front of our bbq pit. we all sat in a "circle" ( the circle wasnt really complete 'cos none of us wanted to have our back facing the sea. some superstition i think. ) and went on &amp; on until... something seriously strange happened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Imagine u &amp; your friends sharing ghost stories in the middle of the night and everyone's alrdy feeling so tensed...  then, someone interrupts the conversation &amp; starts saying really weird things. well, tads wad happened dudes. wei wen interrupted the conversation really abruptly...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ww: " hey guys, i dont mean to freak u guys out but i am damn serious abt this. my vision was blurred for a moment just now &amp; i cldnt see all of your faces clearly. seemed really misty around u guys."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;rest of us(really freaked out) : " wad the f**k? dude, u're scaring us... "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ww: "ssshhhhhhh! keep quiet. &lt;&lt;and a few seconds of complete silence&gt;&gt; i can feel something. i'm serious."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;rest of us: " hey ww, u ok? ('cos he seemed to be in a daze. his eyes didnt meet ours and just went on telling us tad he feels something ard us. wad we said became completely oblivious to him) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;okay, at this point of time, no one dared to utter a single word &amp; i suspected tad the "mist" ww saw was actually "pocongs" (i've read quite a few stories abt pasir ris park having lots of these ghosts tad look lik mist). then, i felt it. at first when all of us were seated at the mat, i kept having this feeling as if something is poking me lightly on the back. to be more precise, i felt something lik a finger. i didnt want to scare myself, so i told myself tad maybe it was the wind (it was seriously damn windy then) or even muscle contraction due to tiredness. plus i even adjusted my shirt such tad it didnt come into contact with my back. but somehow, i felt it a couple of times again. okay, when my shirt wasnt touching my back, i cld feel tad "poking" sensation even more vividly. come to think abt it now... it was as though someone was trying to get my attention or calling me. back to where i was... alright, when everyone was silent, i felt it AGAIN. this time, it was lik a hand sliding down frm my neck all the way down my back. i know wad's lik having goosebumps and tad hair-raising feeling but this was totally different. it felt so defined. of 'cos, i got totally freak out and started chanting. i even stood up and walked away frm tad area immediately. the guys told me tad i shd stay tgt with them but i just cldnt help but nt want to go back there. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;oh yea, wei wen once told us tad he can "sense" the presence of this kinda stuff ever since he was a kid. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;when i walked away, i cld see mist ard the trees on the grassy area. at one point, i thought i saw a really black figure, somewhat the height of a school kid, running across the grassy area quite a distance away frm us. it was pretty dark, so i can't confirm. i warned the guys to come over but they refused at first but gave in eventually. things started to settle down a lil' over some time and we tried to distract ourselves by talking abt some other stuff.   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By 4am today morning, most of us were alr half dead except for a few super hyper ones still playing mahjong. haha! &amp; the train ride back home was a torture! want to sleep but cannot sleep... =.=" this feeling really sucks. &amp; the moment i got home, i went to bathe straight away &amp; "dropped dead". hah.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5447103178376947708-1339522149675561156?l=takingthedayoff.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://takingthedayoff.blogspot.com/feeds/1339522149675561156/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5447103178376947708&amp;postID=1339522149675561156' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5447103178376947708/posts/default/1339522149675561156'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5447103178376947708/posts/default/1339522149675561156'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://takingthedayoff.blogspot.com/2008/11/camp-at-pasir-ris-park.html' title='Camp at Pasir Ris Park'/><author><name>Samuel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03638303797099339825</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447103178376947708.post-6358105326979009001</id><published>2008-11-13T10:26:00.001+08:00</published><updated>2008-11-13T11:21:27.786+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Start of Something New</title><content type='html'>" Whoa... i'm really gettin' it the "high school musical" mood. hah, the title of this entry tells it all i guess. anyway, tad's nt the point...
