The 78 Love Experiment (live in NUS, Law Faculty Moot Court) photos - part 1


Excuse the self indulgence. But hey, this is my blog. So, where else can I wank all over the place man?

The 78 Love Experiment

No, this is not the 78 Love Experiment...


This is actually the band that AB and Weiyuan formed in the earlier part of their NUS days, Dive. This set of photos is taken when they played in Hard Rock Cafe. I believe Kajan played in this gig as well. They did a coupla Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chili Peppers,etc covers. Hey, being the slut I am, I was a staunch supporter and went to almost every gig, along with like all of AB's gang...

Mascot 1

Mascot 2

While I was working in my ex-company, my ex-colleague, Max was busy with something else. He was supposed to be the guinea pig for this mascot outfit try-out. (In the 1st pic, that fat arse is his.) So, guess who had to stand in for him in the end?

It was my 1st and probably last time I tried on spandex, yes, purple spandex to be exact. I had to wear a white jumpsuit and purple spandex to don on this mascot costume... And in less than 5 minutes, I was sweating like a pig in the costume. Utterly no ventilation at all. And I was walking around like CP3O... much to the amusement of many around me...

Anyways, this would be the 1st in the series of my photo album posted online. Thanks, Billy!!! Next to come, The 78 Love Experiment!!!

No, that's not me when I was a wee lad...


Lil Isaac Tan

I just got got wind recently that my primary school classmate, Shiwei aka the Goyster who I haven't seen for 12 friggin' years, got married last year and boom, she has a son now. If our national productivity could be that good, we might just be able to climb outta a recession. But what'd I know? I flunked Econs in Junior College.

Anyway, without her prior permission, hehehe... here's the website created by her husband for her son, Lil Isaac Tan. The above picture was what I thought was the funniest among those they took. I think he'd grow up happy with these wacky parents of his. I dun really know her husband personally. But from the site, he seems to have a healthy sense of humour. And that always rocks in my world. And Goy always had a weird sense of humour since primary school. Mine just developed over the years from reading FHM. Hey, by the way, can I come over once to pinch his cheeks?

I just have this to say: In times like this, when there are CPF cuts and a high (unofficial) unemployment rate of 8%, etc., you get married and have kids. It's to be applauded. Go for the 3rd one, Goy and the PAP will throw in the tax rebates!!! Well, she just happens to be the 3rd friend of my age I know to be married. And she looks happily married. Perhaps, there's still something uncommercial out there called love, eh?

Share the love, maaan...

Swimming Pool


Just finished the show with Gavin and Khai. It was pretty alright. Supposedly to be an erotic thriller, according to some Yahoo reviews. I thought they only showed erotic thrillers in Yangtze cinemas. Hey, I Might Be Wrong (insert: Radiohead song riff) - end of corny Radiohead reference

Anyway, I spotted a major plot flaw in the movie. For those who haven't caught it yet, minor spoilers ahead... Well, in the scene where the nubile young French actress was in the well, swimming pool with this guy. She started blowing him and he pushed her away after a while. We concurred that was the most glaring plot flaw. I mean, how can you reject something that looks like this, blowing you?

Ludivine Sagnier
What the fuck was the scriptwriter smoking?!

But the way, Ludivine Sagnier will be starring as Tinkerbelle in the latest movie adaptation of "Peter Pan". She's definitely a belle but I wonder what she is going to tinker in the movie. (Okay, I fulfilled my corny statements quota for the night. Gonna have a stick and sleep)

P.S.: At least, I din say she can tinker my bell... Oops...

You have only 6 days left...


... to the end of the H.A.I.R. of October poll which ends on next Monday 30th. Cuz the every next day would be the 1st of the new month. Geddit?!

Anyway, for those with blogs, help me out here by advertising this. The girls might not be the happier for it. So would I. But hey, this poll has no walkover or recounting needed. After all, check out the new heading above...

And you, Gavin Chelvan, vote!!! Or no more beer drinking sessions with me!!!

Recognise me?


Unicron

I can still remember those tears welling up when I watched "Transformers: The Movie" and Optimus Prime died. Fwah... That was definitely a childhood scar.

Anyway, Billy forwarded me this article about the Unicron toy after I told him I've just downloaded the pilot of Transformers: Armada. By the way, the site contains several articles relating to the Transformer series. Well, the pilot of the new series sucked...

Can You Hear The Unborn Chicken Voices In My Head?


Psycho-analysis of Radiohead from a fifth grader's point of view. Chekkit.

I've been duped...


On a lighter note, I found this article on Krypton Site:
I think it really hit me how much fetishism surrounded this character when I heard about an interview of the producers saying how Lana Lang was perfect. The vibe was further reinforced by the no. 5 moment chosen for the San Diego Comic Con panel. The clip was Lana's pool scene in Nicodemus where she does that strip tease for Clark. Interestingly enough, the close-up shots of her body weren't of Kristin Kreuk but of a body double. This made me think that in a sense Lana Lang isn't really a character at all but a projection of desire a.k.a. fetish.

Kristin Kreuk
You mean that gorgeous piece of meat ain't hers in the episode "Nicodemus"?? I've been had!!! Goddammit!!!

Youth is wasted on the young...


Just finished watching the last 3 episodes of Smallville season 2 on my comp last night. The orchestral strains of the "Theme From Superman" still haunts deep in my mind; you can almost envision Christopher Reeves taking off as Supes. And think about the unfortunate tragedy that has befallen him.

In another tragic event, one of my primary schoolmates, a brilliant academic student as well, has apparently committed suicide. He had a case of mental breakdown over studies back during the 'O' levels due to over-stress. I have no idea what drove him over the edge to such desperation but I guess it should be pretty bad. Makes you wonder what happiness really means in your life and how the quest for that blip of emotion can be skewed wrongly and horribly as well. And how the consequences of each of our actions can affect one another in a subtle or very direct manner.

Sian...


Fucken scanner, I think is not compatible with the hunk of junk that is my computer. So as usual, my evil mission to flood the internet has been laid to rest at the moment. I is not happy and giving up for the moment.

Crap... This sucks... and I managed to find a picture of Alvin before he had the dreadlocks. Who the hell could actually remember how he looked like without those dingy dreads? That photo, membersss, will remind you.

Woo hoo...


Just borrowed a scanner from Yeeyong. Hopefully, I can upload some pictures now.

When I was at his place, his Samoyed dog, Joey, cute lil pup named after the punk rocker Joey Ramone and according to his wife, Fiona after the Joey character in Friends. It's great that they have a common point. However, it wasn't great that my arse was nipped at least 10 times by the pup the whole time I was there. I know my arse is nice, supple and succulent. But that's no bloody reason to tackle my ass...

Dang... I think I need to check for bitemarks later.

Rows of houses are bearing down on me...


Holy Moly Batman!!! The 80's are back upon us again... Me and the ever-lovable Yeeyong were at the ever-efferverscent AB's new bachelor pad at Siglap last night, working out some new tune. Sounds wicked and like a Radiohead ripoff. If there's one thing I ever learn from my fellow sluts (you know yourselves!!!), once a slut, always a slut... or you can always call it referencing... But it's all good, the song that is.

After we were done, we caught a bit of MTV and saw the Darkness's "Growing On Me". Justin Hawkins' oh-so-Freddie Mercury moves, coupled with all those 80's hair-metal riffs makes it sound as if the 80's never left us. In addition, those videos... my Gawd... chekkit. It's along the lines of W.A.S.P. and Twisted Sister. Funny but there's always so much you can take. If you can find on Kazaa-lite or something, look for their cover of Radiohead's "Street Spirit (Fade Out)", done hair-metal style!!! It's rather amusing... Apparently, they take themselves rather seriously. And all this ain't a Spinal Tap send-up.

RAWK ON!!!

Taking the very 1st step...


Yes, I'm going to take my infant steps to be truly a metrosexual. I'm going to try my very 1st mask...

All Things Must Pass...


Like what George Harrison sang on his similarly titled album, sooner or later, everything will pass.

On Friday, a great musical legend, Johnny Cash passed away. While I'm not too familiar with his musical catalog, there are a few chestnuts and classics that deserve to be heard by all. His tune, "I Fought The Law" has always reminded me of something that the Clash did, predating the punk band a good 20 years. He has attitude and balls. In recent years, his readings of Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus" (featuring Red Hot Chili Pepper's John Frusciante) and Nine Inch Nails' "Hurt" were pretty excellent in their own right.

Rest in peace, the Man in Black.

Own up!!! Which one of you lil pervs voted for Stifler's Mum?!?


Yes, there was a vote for Stifler's Mum, the original M.I.L.F. (Mama I Wanna Fuck). 'Fess up... hehehe...

I went to watch (surprise surprise) Spy Kids 3D today. Eh, I've never watched a 3D movie in my life. So, this was a good way to start. Sure, it was full of cornball lines that were pretty amusing and absolutely family-oriented. But hey, I loved "Return of The Killer Tomatoes". This is kinda schizophrenic of Robert Rodriguez whose next film, "Once Upon A Time In Mexico", starring Antonio Banderas (who was in SK3D), Salma Hayek (in SK3D as well) and Johnny Depp is an absolute, over-the-top action-violence-sex-filled flick. No family values to espouse. No happy reunion endings.

Anyway, the 3D effects was pretty fun. Although at times they could be extremely disconcerting, they can be really entertaining at times. Everything in the film was pretty much tongue-in-cheek with various cameos from all the previous actors from the franchise I gathered with Elijah Wood and George Clooney as the President (sporting a pretty funny Stallone impersonation). And Clooney was in "Return of the Killer Tomatoes" before he was famous.

Truth be told, I went into the cinema pretty much excited like a kid going into the cinema for the 1st time. Well, I was a 3D film virgin.

In addition, I was mucking around with my guitar after Yeeyong left my place. I decided to deviate from the standard EADGBE tuning to an open D chord tuning. I began strumming a chord progression which had much of a country feel, due to the nature of the tuning I guess and sang a melody to it. I had to stop to laugh cuz it pretty sounded like a song a lusty coal miner would sing after getting rejected by a teenage girl. Go figure.

Well, membersss. I guess you can say today was a happy day for me.

New addition


We have a new addition to the family. We welcome Gracie's blog to be part of the link. Yay, something more for me to hog on cyberspace!!! In addition, we announce the demise of Sujin's blog. He decided not to blog anymore... for the time being.

The last poll was honestly pathetic. I wanna link the results to let u guys see it. I'm not sure if you guys can view the results. Anyway, as expected, most people (about 3) were willing to trade their inheritance for Monica Bellucci. By the way, I'm going to start a new poll soon to vote for the H.A.I.R. of October. Please spread the word and ask your Granpa and Granmas to vote as well.

American Pie


I was watching the movie again yesterday on VCD. I'd always loved the movie and of course, everybody's favourite Eastern European foreign exxxchange student, Nadia. Ah yes, the lovely Shannon Elizabeth.

Shannon Elizabeth
(I'm not sure about you guys but I see a nomination coming up)

Besides the memorable pie scene and Stiffler drinking the cup of beer with cum in it, the movie was really pretty good. Okay, it did not have much of a plot to boot. In fact, it was about the bittersweet pangs of growing up and going through rites of passages in life. However, I strongly recommend you not sleeping with your friend's mum as a rite of passage.

Well, the franchise carries on this year with the 3rd and final installment in the series. Yes, a John Hughes-inspired movie is actually made into a trilogy. Click here to visit the "American Wedding" aka "American Pie 3" website. It's been said before that a good movie franchise should be one which sequels feel like revisiting old friends and catching up on old times. I hope the last one would be good too.

Karma Sutra


Was surfing and came across this site with "Top 5 Most Effective Sexual Positions For Females" So this is for the ladies. Honestly, some of the position names are so fantastical that they sound like some carnival rides or games. I mean, dig the names like the Lusty Leapfrog and the Titillating Trapeze. If I was a kid, this must have sounded like a bloody circus to me!!!

Some changes...


Actually, I wanted to muck around with the HTML code somemore. But unfortunately, the whole thing doesn't respond very well with the changes. What the hell... So here it is, just with an additional poll.

Sucky, I know but I'd put that polling thing to good use in the future I guess. Hey, there's still some place on this planet where you can actually get to vote and your vote can actually mean something. Not in your GRC, of course.

Asian Heartbreakers


Stumbled across this site Asian Heartbreakers which is a couple of guys doing a send-up of boybands. A pretty funny joke stretched over 5 mins. That's about it.

Kinda remind of that time when Alvin, Melvin and I went to BMG to pitch them an idea for a boyband. I am still wondering til this day why we were kicked out of the office. Hmmmm....

Some good advice...


Some good advice

Hands up for those who wanna be a piece of parquet flooring right now...


Yes, I know I would. The woman featured in this month's H.A.I.R. is considered to be extremely dangerous and should be locked in my bedroom for reasons tied in with national security. Unfortunately, she happens to be VERY married. You know what they say about good women nowadays... They are either married or lesbians. Hey, in both cases, that doesn't really matter to some guys I know.

This month's choice was a very difficult one. I was at Siem Reap bar with Billy, Gavin, Aaron and their friend, Jessica. It was very heart-warming thing for me to hear that the guys (only) enjoy this blog and are frequent visitors. This only proves one thing. Sex indeed rules. I cast out a few choices and they recommended a few names such as Eva Mendes (who doesn't do it for me), Keira Knightley (She's gorgeous and has a great smile but I couldn't see her posterior in that corset in "Pirates Of The Carribean: The Curse Of The Black Pearl" very well) and Beyonce Knowles (She 's one Foxxy lady...)

In any case, I came back from a tiring jamming session today and went through some sites, like last night. Just imagine I had to peruse through all of AskMen.com's Top 99 Most Desirable Women of 2003 to get an inkling of who to choose. It's a tough and dirty job. I hope you guys can appreciate the trouble and pains I take for you all.

So there you go. H.A.I.R. of September: Monica Bellucci who is definitely hot enough to cause a surge in global warming. (Hey, I had to come out with a FHM-esque wisecrack somehow or another)
