Weird experiences- telemarketing with outdated records:

"He passed away 2 years ago."

"I don't buy anything! Don't waste your time! Don't call back!"

"Ok. Bye."

"You just made a very expensive error, mate. You got the wrong number."


"Singapore? Its so late over there now!" "Yup, its kinda bout 2am now. Can I speak to bahbahbah please?" "Sorry, my boss is not in at the moment. I used to work in Johor Baru!" "..."

And the most cheerful, happiest reply I got was "Thanks for calling mate! I will be waiting for the bahbahbah to arrive. Have a nice day!"

I like the contact with other people's lives thou. Its nice to see how your life could turn out. I think taxi drivers are either the friendliest or loneliest around, but they sure do give sound advice.

Oh damn. When I start talking weird like that you know I lack sleep. Nap time. Hah. Being banging away at keyboard for 2 days straight- writing a story is nice, but hellish.

BTW, those who wanna read the script please IM me. No more updates, there. Theres always hope for the hopeless...

I'm alive. Yup.





My handphone is being largely ignored these days and I'm hiding offline, but its all for a good cause. See, about 2 months ago, I realized I lack the drive to do anything at all. So I sat down, and thought it throught. At 18, what do you want to achieve? What most people want to do is invest their time in activties that will pay back in the future; eg. learning to drive, go for a promising internship, bahbartraha. Then I thought about my future timeframe- NS; OCS/Retake "A"s- University hopefully; Club activities. After which obligations call for a stable lifestyle. What happened to the dreams we had?

I want a shot at it at least. Dog tired, Half dead, lethargic, excuses come aplenty when you a student waiting for NS with a job you know you will not be keeping.

So, I write. Not with pen or paper thou, I only do that when I'm moving about. But I'm with the com nearly every other waking hour, trying to get this dream to work.

This is like a long long game of snake and ladders. We don't know where it ends- slow and steady at 80 for some, with a bang at 30 (I hope the car isn't a good one), or just a husk following the same scheduel living just day by day. God knows when you fall or when someone decides to give you a push up, but I sure as hell am going to claw my way up.

I will be neglecting this blog for a bit, but http://tiredjusttired.blogspot.com/ is rather active, since I finally am able to have some progress now.

BTW, I'm using the snowflake technique. ->  http://www.advancedfictionwriting.com/art/snowflake.php

I have been tearing my hair out for the past month. I need some help with my script. In case you are wondering, please head to the above website to read the temp script.

The thing is I started writing in sec 2 with no planning before hand. Factor in childish thinking, and you have a big big mess. Also, I am only putting up the prologue now.

Storyline problems
1)What kind of information is that valuable as to tempt people to "hunt" for it?(ie. MICE? Money. Ideology, patriotism or religion. Coersion. and E-something can't remember what)
   Or do people want him for who he is?(ie. Gene Modification? Cliche, I know, but WTH.)
2)Why do they start looking for him after all these years?
3)How does the father's company come in.

Language
1)Confusing?
2)Not impactful enough.

Please comment, I really need help with this.

  I'm in love with Changi Rise.
  We had a few shooting outtings there and I was quite amazed. Firstly the 40 seater mini-theatre was great. Especially when the console was plugged to that niffy projector.  From what I heard, you can listen to music in the pool too. 0.o
  The best part was when captain volunteered to cook dinner for us. The rice cooker was down, so I did the rice at home, but CC and Edison mustered up some Japanese vegetable curry (from scratch mind you, not a mix), chicken slices and egg, and it was great. Going to get a job tomorrow. I had enough of slacking, and I need money. Hope the NCC guys at the chalet are having fun.

  Morning! Finally, a proper post. At least thats whats running in my mind now. It has been a fast(seemingly?) three weeks since the "A"s ended.
  I'll start by talking about today, since it is the clearest in my mind.

.

   Yup. That about it. To cut my ranting short, there were 2 potential candidates we found, Seoul Garden(0.o, oily work environment??? CMI for me) , characterized by hard work and OK pay $5, and my admin work at my aunt's place.
  As a side note, we were troughing through the restaurants at Bugis when the staff at a relatively empty restaurant found creative uses for their tables and chairs.

 Nice. Kinda cute too.

  Well first off, right after the "A"s we had the 103 class chalet,
  after which the next 3 days was a rather monotonous library-home-comupter games-sleep schedeule. During which the annual children's camp organised by Christen completely slipped my mind. Typical. I ended up as a group leader of a group of energetic(overly so, in my opinion), active kids ranging from primary one to three, and God forbid should any of them just stop and sit quietly. Kids will be kids I guess, and it was fun to see them go. Quite reminds me of how I was when I was younger.It was fun while it lasted. Thanks for the fun for the last 3 years, Christen. And don't forget my testimonial! =p. I forgot. For two years. LOL

Prom! Prom! Prom! Prom! Prom! Prom! Prom! Prom! Prom! Prom! Prom! Prom! Prom! Prom! Prom!

 I had Prom in the middle of the camp. 0.o I haven't got the hat i wanted nor the white pants, and I had 1.5 hours to get those and reach City Hall in the rain. But as I said, everything did work out in the end... Although some would say I didn't look my best. Ah well. Can't have everything...
Fun(Sporting Dom crossdressing). Crazy(Jeremy changing in taxi). Everything nice in between. Nuff said.

Net lagging. No more uploads.
