Like sucked into a giant black hole, we're unsure of where we are. After the Christmas high, we get back to our mundane life for a few days, before eagerly anticipating the arrival of New Year celebrations. Have had a good peaceful Christmas, I hope?

In the case anyone is interested to know, I spent my Christmas with many people...







And many of Santa's workshop crew. Been fun, been fun. Keeps me sane at least.

New Year will probably be the same for me too, and not that I'm complaining.

See y'all next year. Have a swelling New Year Eve!

Don't you just love this weather? With temperature flirting constantly around the 20's this is exactly what makes me comfortable. True, the relentless rain is a bother, which is why I wouldn't wanna go England in the future, but hey, more opportunities to wear trench coats, like some suave WorldWarII commander.

I wanna move to a country that offers me a temperature like this in summer, and snowmen in the wintertime. You cannot imagine the chore I go through every morning I have to go school. When people usually adore the warmth of the 9am sun, it never fails to leave me with a perspired face when I finally reach school. It's really embarrassing when I'm always the only one on the skin to skin packed bus with perspiration beads running down the sides of my face, and subsequently down my neck. It attracts a whole lot of unwanted attention. Worse if there are pretty chix...

For now I shall just enjoy this weather for as long as it lasts. Now that Singapore has accumulated 2 days worth of rain water, I can finally do what I've always wanted. I shall flood my bathroom and make it a giant bathtub. Wheeeee!

We so often hear people talk about 'finding myself'. But what is it actually? Is it the process of finding out what the future brings for us? Or is it that due to the fact that we've been so preoccupied with our daily life and responsibilities, that we constantly change ourselves to suit the environment surrounding us, just so that we 'fit in'?

I sit here, wondering what kind of person I was last year, two years ago, or even five years ago. Have I changed, character-wise? Ambition-wise? How would I have reacted differently if lets say a problem cropped up? My life has been at a hectic pace the last couple of years. The sequence goes like this:

-Fiddling with break-up1
-NS
-Still fiddling
-Girl G from nowhere enters my life
-Cyber friend G becomes someone I fancy G(with 5*s)
-Yadda yadda yadda...
-Fiddling with break-up2
-School
-Trying to 'fit in' (Or you can call it 'adjusting')
-Hooking up with a girl I fancy
-Exams
-Time flies when you're occupied with girl M
-A couple of jobs
-Yet more time flies by with the girl M
-School
-Fiddling with break-up3
-School...

There are only this many times before the break-ups teach you something. It took me two to realise that its evil to be too hung up. Which is probably why fiddling with break-up3 is comparably a much simpler affair. Or maybe the r/s with girl M was doomed to fail right from the start [insert forbidden apple theory]. The plus point for being stubborn? Neither one will ask the question 'what if?'. If it hadn't been the experiences of break-up1 & break-up2, how would I be handling break-up3?

One thing that hasn't change for sure, is that I never succeed in making any of them 3 my friend. Quite frankly, I plainly screwed up #1, my over-zealousness screwed up #2, and #3's a matter of different frequencies. I truly wonder how it feels like to remain friends with your ex-flames. Isn't it weird? Is it nice to know that there's still someone you can turn to when need be? How does it feel when you two meet again?

Now that I have absofuckinglutely no plans whatsoever for Christmas nor New Year, I should spend this remaining bit of my holiday 'finding myself', and if along the way I think I have faltered in the way I mature, I should probably revert to the kind of boy I was.

But hey, I have my own little plans in the form of blading, and catching up on my Count of Monte Cristo ebook. It will still be a pleasant Christmas. Somewhat.

Who knows. Someone may waltz into my life unexpectedly again. Only this time, I pray she fits my 4th installment of "The Kind Of Girl I Diggggg". And just to be wicked, she has to mention (un/knowingly) these magical words, before I will finally ask her out:



Cover up now, little boys and girls. It's gonna be a tad chilly tonight. But hey, if you've not been under the rain for 8 hours out in the sea, then its not so bad. (: Good night.

What drives you?

So this is it. I'm not going to renew the oh-dear.com domain. Through the 4 long years with that domain, it has seen me grown up, seen me blog tear-inducing posts, joyous posts, posts that are really random, and brought me places with people I would never have dreamed of. Its been a while, its been a while...

Wish I never have to do away with oh-dear.com. Just that more often than not, people have already moved on, so I really shouldn't remain stagnant, eh? And don't ask me why's my name Bart Simpson. \=

But well, I'm still here, with this new horribly long URL. When a year's up, I'll change it again, to something shorter, something easier to type, easier to remember.

Can't wait for the day to finally leave the country for good. There are so many factors that force me out made me want to be a "quitter" (quote, LKY). The punishing weather, the people in general, the culture, and of course, the cost of living.

I wanna fly high, up in the sky.
Free as a bird, leaving behind the pile of dirt.

While I sit here in front of my messed up desktop, flanked neatly by 2 cans of beer on either side, I'm in the mood for some New Yr Resolutions. Who's to say its too early for resolutions?

Why drinking beer at home, alone, you ask. Well, for starters, I'm always home, alone. Along with the fact that its the holiday season (which happens to be the valid reason I give myself so I don't have to work), thus the festive blues for the 3rd year running. Its weird how thing always manage to turn for the worse during this time. So no Merry X'mas, and no Jingle Bells either.

With this pensive mood, accompanied by the looping melodies of Kenny G's Christmas tunes, how can I say no to blogging?

Anyway, my new year resolutions* are as follows:

1) To save $100 a month. This shall go into the untouchable-sum-of-money-unless-I'm-out-and-I-see-this-nice-piece-of-clothing-I-must-get-my-hands-on trust fund. $1200 same time today next year, not too shabby eh?

2) To continue to drink more because some wise men said it reduces the risk of a certain kind of cancer.

3) To seek someone who actually suits me, someone who actually cares (a little), shows attention (a little), and and eye for minor details (which I diggg a lot). Someone who doesn't require so much talking from me, someone who digs spending time but not actually talking much, just to appreciate the physical presence. I may seem grown up (sometimes), but I'm really still a little boy deep inside, so don't break my heart, ok? Peace ^_^V

4) To be more friendly and/or sociable.

5) To try and break down the ice wall around me.

6) To smile more.

Think that's about it. Too many resolutions will end up being a chore. At this point in time, I'm actually not in a very humorous mood, so I will honor one of them resolutions. On to my third can of beer, thankyouverymuch kthxbye.


*subject to changes depending on which side of the bed I wake up from.
