The most infuriating thing has happened. It occured when i was trying to offload my handphone to a certain party whom i shall not name but rhymes with the word 'poo'. I have never met such an absurd, capricious, contradictory, erratic, fallacious etc person in a while now. Avalanches of complaints, one after the other about the 'shocking' state in which my BRAND NEW STILL SHRINKED WRAPPED phone is in after 'poo' opened it to have a go at it...being an honest broker, naturally decided that it must be one of those D.O.A sets and promptly arranged a meeting to refund her money in full. Saw the phone myself with a buddy of mine and it was working in tip-top condition!! All the mentioned 'ailments' of the phone was not evident at all!! Feeling rather hot under the collar, i decided to ring 'poo' (as i met with her sister instead to retrieve the phone as 'poo' wasn't available for a meeting) and after 15 odd minutes of debate, nothing conclusive came up. Insisted that i returned her money in full as my set gave her 'insecurities'. (hmm..reminds me of girlfriends. *wink*) I'm not a charity i argued, simply letting a stranger to 'try' my phone and because you've decided to change your mind about having that set, prompting for a full refund. It would not have been that big a deal except for the fact that the phone was shrinked wrapped. The value of my set has now dropped and she was adamant that she could get it shrinked wrapped back for me and we should just call it quits!! Is someone missing the point or what...She argued that the phone had problems 'that come on and off', erractic you mean i corrected her and you can pretty much imagine how the conversation endured from then on..

this is a mega shit-house transaction as far as i can tell...the saga continues.

Best short passage about chill out music..the genre i'm immersing myself in now: "I'm lazing on the couch at my parents house, home from uni, enjoying the long summer holidays. The minimal strains of St Germain's Sure Thing waft around the lounge room, cycles of sound and silence that seem to mimic the slow breathing of someone in a deep sleep"..how can anything top that..

In the midst of waiting for relatives to turn up..can't believe i feel feverish now..just recovered about a week ago and i'm down again. damn weak sia. nevertheless, gambling money has been good so far this year..one more day to go before this whole fiasco ends..

Having read a good friend's blog (check it or him out: http://avatar77.blogspot.com/) about WOMEN, i have come to one conclusion: The battle of the sexes will NEVER END. Men say that women can't make up their minds, the women say men are too egoistic about their opinions. Men say women are flickle and women say men are irresponsible when it comes to love...depsite all our flaws, both parties need each other. (to procreate no less, but among factors, companionship, the other gender's perspective on matters etc etc). Some feminists may argue with the advent of IVF treatment, there's a lesser need for men to lie, sit or hang around for women. No doubt, but do you actually want Brad Pitts or F4s look alikes walking amist us by the throngs???

Let the battle continue...

Nothing fancy done today..late start to the day, was raining then pouring then back to drizzling. Upsetted my goal to start jogging!! *clenched fists towards the sky* Went to Queensway to accompany brother to get his tennis gear and stuff. Didn't realise the allure of Queensway and Ikea which is just across the street on a wet day. They were packing them in!! *think about all the parking dough they would collect..drool* Ended up in Weiyi's place at night to watch "Analyse This". Still funny the 4th time round..heh. Robert De Niro is a gawd when it comes to pan faced comedy..genius!!!

My first foray into the art of blogging. Hopefully I'll keep at it and not let the interest wane like half the stuff I 'set' my heart and soul to do..sighz. So many things to say but the mind is weary. How on earth do the rest of my fellow bloggers do it i would never know but to recap the day with such vividness and detail astounds me. Should i first start off by saying that i'm a bored 21 year old who has too much time on his hands while waiting for enlistment..did the uni bit before the army bit, hence the lateness. had the most boring steamboat with the family today. This place under Golden Mile Shopping complex. Damn derelict place but surprisingly crowded. I must have stepped back into the '60s man..free love for all dudes and dudettesss...

Do we have ignition?
