- music [daria's opening theme]

ok, its close to four weeks since the last entry i've put up. yes, it seems that as the day goes by, this blog is closer to becoming obsolete. i'm sorry, but i've been blogging over my other blogsite, thus making that my primary blogsite now. im just am amazed with the security capabilities of the other blogsite that im too lazy to blog over this site.

i've decided to change up a lil bit on the template (soon), since everything is aging. yes, this blog is here to stay, at least for a long while.

here's a lil run down on my life since august 7th;

my NSF sentence
i've just started clearing my leaves and offs. this will be the last stretch of my national service fulltime sentence. a lot of things happened in between. my department was suddenly infested with rats despite that our office was on the ninth floor of the building.

but the usual boys of my branch had our fun hunting rats and the such. i felt a bit on my last day of work. it's weird considering the fact, i hardly harbor any emotions when it comes to goodbyes. when i sit down and think about it, it felt almost the same way when i was working over at 3bars. the attachment that grew in me would be the cause of this emotional disturbance, but i reckon its healthy for me.

i'll miss my mates over at camp, always the crazy bunch we are. kudos to you guys for making my ns experience more tolerable.

my band: oligarchy
in the span of 3 months (june - august), oligarchy headed down to the heart of town, orchard road to perform for various charity and/or non-profit organization.


invading ngee ann city in aid of "bone marrow donar's program". [somethingood 07]


taking over cineleisure in aid of our beneficiary "the boys town (a welfare home for the unprevileged)". [tapestry 07]


this is our only time making such a ruckus and not get kicked out of the library. young musicians' nuturing program by music for good. [hullaballo sessions]

oligarchy's finished with their recording of their second track for their upcoming demo which is scheduled for release early 2008. and the boys will be heading to the recording studios sooner than you think.

personal life
it's been an interesting ride since july for me. apart from the regular "broke nsf" blues, i think i managed pretty well. though in the month of august, i've been tested quite bad when scdf decided to hold my meal allowance. and trust me, if there's a time that i needed that allowance the most, it's THIS time. and i have to add, since im already clearing leave, i might as well wait out another 11 days till pay is cashed in.

i've caught up with my movie list already; rush hour 3, alone and the bourne ultimatum in the month of august alone. for now, i await the release date for resident evil : extinction and of course, saw iv.

since july 14th, i've been out with juli more often. perhaps its a way to make up the long 3 year absence between us, then again, no amount of time is replaceable. though, i enjoyed her company everytime i spent my time with her.

in the other hand, an old friend whom i've lost contact (again) found me. i've lost contact with yansary the moment she graduated from poly in 2004, and i only managed to obtain her number through my gutiarist' friend's friend's friend 5 months later. i managed to have one phone conversation before she changed numbers again. this time i headed on a dead end.

yet, mid july 2007, she found me here and we did a lil catch up through e-mail. i got to know that she's married and she just got her first kid, i am thrilled. time flies so fast, it feels like genesis orientation only yesterday.

and yana, if you're reading this, one day we'll do a proper catch up session or something aites? coffee or lunch.

anyways, since im clearing my leaves and offs right now, the proper thing i should do is do up my resume and prepare for full time work. and getting a job will be so much difficult since we've got competition everywhere from anywhere. a friend of mine, who's post-graduate still having a hard time getting a job. i fear i'd settle for less when i succumbed to "sheer desperation" mode. *sighs*

cest la vie.
