I met a girl at the carnival
In Rio de Janeiro
We danced all night on the boulevard
In doorways we did the tango

I miss her lips
And the way she sashayed her hips
As she shook her shoulders
I miss the smell of her hair
I don't care if it takes my whole life to find her

We were dancing in the summer rain
We were dancing through the night
She never said her real name
So I called her Spanish Eyes
Spanish Eyes…

The sun came up and the girl was gone
Her masquerade was over
I searched the streets drunk with love
But no one seemed to know her

I miss the touch
Of her body so much
I long for the warmth inside her
Somewhere in time she will come back to me
And I'll spend my whole life beside her

We were dancing in the summer rain...

now here i am sitting in front of the computer sipping on Jack Daniel's Tennessee whiskey mixed with coke when i should be out with weiming. his 18th brithday dinner at lau pa sat was real fun. we feasted on seafood and satay and downed it with 2 jugs of beer followed by bandung and teh tarik. its been quite a while since i actually sat down for a good meal with a bunch of friends and had fun. to cheechong weiyang ben lynette n clara: i think for once it all went well and he did haf a happy birthday haha. though i must say that the 2nd Sri Lankan black pepper crab was really pathetic! the pincer was the size of my thumb. aye being 18 years old is really a big thing, pivotal point of your life. was at the fullerton after that to get a cab and it suddenly hit me. 8 years down the road would i be at a hotel similar in stature to the fullerton sipping a martini on a business trip or would i be slogging in a office desk job and having to kiss my bosses ass day in day out. i just don't know man. everything just seems so abstract to me now. -sigh- even the gold. but lets not talk about that. next saturday is 14th feb, valentine's day, cheechong's birthday. think that's e last day i'll drown the abstractness of my dreams in alcohol. from now till then its 1 week of hard work. as the saying goes. "work, work."

i think i'm obessed, ever since i stepped back into my room at 10pm i've done nothing but watch Goldberg's past matches. in the WCW against Scott Steiner, at Armageddon 2003, Survivor Series 2003 and Unforgiven 2003 against Triple H. what impresses about Goldberg is his pure unadulterated power. the way he military presses his opponents, even the 290 pound Scott Steiner, the way in which he spears his opponents, its not about strength more of power. imagine more power in a run or in a tackle...imagine the power that will cut a man in half..imagine cutting people in half during the tournament. just imagine... looks like its time to reconsider what i've been doing all the while.

this is for the special angelic one out there.
I don't want to close my eyes, I don't want to fall asleep,
Cause I miss you baby, And I don't want to miss a thing,
Cause even when I dream of you, the sweetest dream will never do,
I still miss you baby and I don't want to miss a thing...

he's back and this time there's no stopping the bullet train's collision course with redemption.

just a thought: i realize that life ain't that hard, i just fuck it up badly. i mean its just the A level syllabus plus rugby. i ain't got no drug/smoke/alcohol habits that's eating me up like some demon. no family problems. naught. den why do i just feel that my life is wasting away like some rotting potato? maybe its the negative attitude and the bad habits that i've cultivated over the years. like computer games, online chat and that sort of bullshit which is essentially a plain waste of time. i've got to start cultivating the good habits and cut out all this time wasting.

-shrug- then again, maybe its because i got my life's direction wrong. was watching crazy/beautiful just now. everytime i watch the show i just get a new revelation. this time, and i'm quite sure that i'm right to say, i just want to be carlos in the film. a simple but driven kid. yeah. but to be driven you need a reason. maybe tis time for me to contemplate what i really want to do. do you really want to be some fat banker who sits on his sorry fat ass all day and plays with money? i guess not. my ma always said i got it wrong when as a kid i told her about my ambitions. what i want now seems to have been shaped partly by their typical singaporean pragmatism, washing away the idealism of the young. when the idealism attempts a come back it is often suppressed by this pessimistic pragmatism. what the future holds, no one knows. but for me one thing's for sure my future doesn't lie here in this realm of extreme stability.
