I have heard that alot of SMU student visit this "pub". I witnessed it myself today. More than half the crowd was SMU students, haha~
But anyway, the place sucks big time! The liquor really really sucks! Dunno how the hell they can sell warm beer. But pizza wasn't that bad. Ok, the worst thing? The band sucks big time! They can't sing! I dedicate "She will be loved" and guess what? The singer can't hit the high note at chorus. Haha~ CMI
My dedication msg (singer read it out): To all the chao mugger still in the opposite building now!

Cockster face. 17-year-old only. Foolish enough to make comments mocking the Malay community on his blog. He is lucky to escape jail term; should be only probation.
His lawyer is more cock. He claimed that the cockster's racist sentiments stemmed from baby brother's death. Guess how long was that unfortunate incident? 10 years ago. He claimed that the incident left a "very deep scar" on the youth. Cockster lah ~ can push blame to any crap reasoning.

Accreditation bodies CaseTrust and the Association of Employment Agencies Singapore (AEAS) said that from January next year, new employers must give maids one day off a month or compensate them in cash, under a standard employment contract currently being finalised.

Yesh, maids are human too. They deserve a break from our crap. Come on. Don't give employers the choice between compensation or day off. Many rich ass can offer that $30 and demand their maids to continue working. Make it a legal requirement!

I am those who are forever critical on wrongdoers. Hmmm..... when I read this news on the papers, I didn't know how to feel. Yes, they deserve a 2nd chance, but does it mean that the record has to be cleared? Doesn't the employers have the rights to know the truth? Will offenders ever abuse the system?
Oh well, I am just too critical on them. I never give people chance. Yeah, idiotic me~

I am currently doing a Strategy project on Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturer. I really cannot understand why Temask want to hold 60% ownership of this loss-making piece of crap. It has been making loss for the past 4 years. Crap. Is it national pride again? Or is it because of retrenchment issue? Temask is creating a bend on its outstanding portfolio record by holding this crap for years. Will it be spinned off soon? Beat me ~

I have anticipated this movie for 4 months. Well, it pays off in some senses.
The movie is great. The cast is superb, outstanding. The pace of the plot is just right. Everything seems to fall into place till the end.
Fucking Singapore censorship. I know there are 2 version to the end of the show. Just like what happened to "Young & Dangerous" of the late 1990s. With just that few minutes addition of bullshit, the movie almost kill itself.
Fuck the censorship. Can't they play the original version? Why classified the movie as M16 when it twisted the ending like this? Tamade ~
But well, do catch the movie in the cinema. Worth every cents. The cast alone will blow you away. Eh, I am waiting for the DVD to be released. The original HK version, duhz.
4 stars out of 5!

Fucking law. Forever protecting the female.
This 14-years old bitch was in need of money. She asked her boyfriend to recommend his friends to have paid-sex with her. After collecting money from more than 4 guys, she reported them all to the police. And she goes scot-free.
Tamade ~ how can such bitch get away so easily? Why does the law fuck the men this way? Yes, those horny idiots should be punished, but what about this fucking bitch?! She was the one who approached the guys. Not only that it was consent sex, the fucking bitch is paid. I bet she planned all these moves. Tamade ~ have paid sex with men, then report them to police. What the fuck ~
I hope she contacts HIV tomorrow. BITCH

*B* = Book

Do you really know what does investment banker really do? Fuck the M&A, junk bond, IPO, and the rest of the crap. Read this book and you will understand how ironic an investment banker's life can be. 4 hours of sleep a day. No social life. Fucking big ego. Lowest form of living things in the corporate world.
You know the funniest things? It's all so true. I was working in corporate finance department during summer, thus I understand every single words in the book. Micro-managing bosses, redrafting and redrafting, endless meetings, ass kissing. Damm funny. Hahaha ~
Finally getting some time out for leisure reading.
A must-read for investment banker wannabe!

I was alone with another stranger at the City Hall train station. The train had just left, thus it was kinda deserted.
There it was, an innocent-looking paper bag at the corner. The stranger looked around before throwing me a glare. Hmmm...... gosh. I remembered the poster - "REPORT IT". He took the escalator up. Gosh, within a minute, the train opposite arrived and all the passengers rushed onto this line. No one else seems to notice the paper bag.
I stared into the display monitor. 3 minutes. It seems to be the longest 3 minutes for quite some time. I wondered ..... what if it just exploded? Will I be alive to witness the death and cry?
1 more minute ...... the stranger walked down together with the officer. Gosh ~ the unsuspecting crowd was still chatting away while the officer approached the paper bag with cautious steps. He took it up and the relieve shone in his face. Bless him.
Beep beep beep .... I ran into the train before the doors shut on me. For a moment, I think .... fucking terrorists have indeed changed my life.

Flip the newspaper any morning and you will find headlines that goes "Singapore aims to be XXX hub". This morning, Straits Times have 2 different articles - Singapore to be PR hub ....and... Singapore to be jewellery hub. One appeared on the review section, while another appeared on the life section.
Fuck la, how many hubs must Singapore be? Financial hub, design hub, legal hub, PR hub, R&D hub, entertainment hub, advisory hub ....... tamade lah ~ starhub la!
Aren't we thinking more and more like the United States? They think that they are at the center of the world, everyone has to go to them. Now Singapore think that we can be the hub for every single thing. Fuck lah, what you want? Unemployment hub lah ~

Singapore said on Monday it has dropped plans to impose a surcharge on casino gaming revenues after obtaining feedback from potential investors. The government had earlier told potential bidders for the two integrated casino resorts it may impose the surcharge if gross gaming revenues exceeded 50 per cent of total annual earnings.

When ah moh gives "feedback", government listens and act on it. When local gives "feedback", they kena fucked outside down. Whatever ~

A research team here has developed a new, accurate cancer test kit, which can give warning signs of the disease years before the first physical signs appear by detecting minute chemical changes in a patient's DNA.

Anyway, have you heard of the Spanish Flu of 1918? It kills 50 million worldwide within a year. What is the world coming to? Tsunami, Sumatra earthquake, Hurricane Katrina and Rita. Then the stupid dengue, then bird flu.

Caught on film.
Tamade ~ New Orleans cops, they fucking daring leh! Did you watch the clip!? It was on TV last night. Tamade ~ They beat the shit out of that intoxicated man. Blows to his head, slammed him to the ground, continued punching him. The result? A man lying on his stomach, hands handcruffed to his back, blood streaming down his arm and into the gutter.
Fucking bloody and violent. Fuck the cops. Should put them behind jail and kena gang bang inside. Haha ~ is there something wrong with the United States cops and military huh? They seem to enjoy torturing others. They need some education sia. Fucking stripped POW in Iraqi, fine. Now even beating the shit out of their own man at home. Tamade ~ for your info, those cops are all white, and yeah, the "suspect" is black. To hell with those bastards.
Oh, for your info, the man is 64 years old......

And so it is ....... the charming chap with the guitar started singing. The song which remained on repeat mode on my player for months - The Blower Daughter. Half way through the song, he sang ...... (Creep)

But we're creep
We're a weirdo
What the hell are we doing here?
We want to drink beer

Wahaha ~ damm funny. The duo are so cool (Oh, my friend find them hot and want to marry one of them). Sang many nice song tonight. "She will be loved", "High and dry", "Vindicated", "She's beautiful", "You and I both"....and so on.
Wonderful place to chill out, although the drinks are abit too pricy. The music is great! Charming duo.
When they sang "Somewhere only we know", some memories run through my mind again ..... foolish for a moment....

This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?

Quake Kills More Than 18,000 in South Asia

A powerful earthquake flattened entire villages of mud-brick homes, triggered landslides and toppled a 10-story apartment building on Saturday, killing more than 18,000 people as it devastated a mountainous swath touching Pakistan, India and Afghanistan.

Sigh ..... when you take a look from a different angle, will you ask this question that I am asking?
"Nature acts have killed many innocents already, why must those terrorist continue acting god?"

Wah sei! Finally, I see someone of creditable intelligence highlighting this point to the public!
Go check out today's Strait Times Forum. There is this long letter from Assoc Prof Lee Wei Ling. She brought out a point which I completely agree with! Some Singaporean (however kind-hearted they are) are simply gullible. They make donation to any oh-so-poor-me who appears on newspapers! Really, there has been so many cases of it, ok?
First of all, before you make your donation to beneficiary who need surgery, have you ever thought of how the surgery will change their lifes? How high is the success rate in that surgery? Sigh .....
And the worst of the worst case?! Stupid fucking donation to Huang Na!!!!!!! Wait! Not to Huang Na, I mean to Huang Na's mum and many husbands! Tamade! Did you see how big Huang Na's tomb is!? It's freaking big! Do you know that her mum add a storey to her house in China?! Hey, it's not renovation, can? It's adding a whole new floor! Tamade! And guess what? Her mum is pregnant now! Oh great, just within 1 year her dear daugher is dead. I wonder who father it this time. And guess what? Her relative has the cheek to claim that it's Huang Na's recarination as her mum's baby once again. My foot lah ~ kiss it.
Can the real kind hearted Singaporean think for a moment before making donation? Can?

Jail bird 2: Hmmm..... I am a racist blogger.
Jail bird 1: Wah lao eh, don't talk cock, can?! Serious lah, what crime have you committed?
Jail bird 2: .............

Please be careful with your words, my dear friends. One blogger got jailed for 1 day, while another one is sentenced to 1 month. 1 fucking month for some stupid comment made on his blog. Wah sei .........
I bet he won't be cutting grass in the prison. I bet that everyday, his warden will ask him to sing this song every morning ......

One people, one nation, one Singapore
That's the way that we will be forevermore
Every creed and every race, has its role and has its place
One people, one nation, one Singapore

When I first heard of this concept cafe, I wasn't impressed with this idea at all. What was the big deal? Isn't it just a few boardgame? Can't I play them at home? Isn't it just a few sofa? What else can they really offer?
Oh well, I experienced it myself today. Once I was seated, I asked my friend - "How do they really make money like this?" Haha ~ foolish me. I realised 2 hours later......
First of all, it's a prefectly healthy chill-out place. It's bright, yet cosy enough to feel at ease. (Eh, although I ordered a bottle of beer, generally the menu is pretty healthy.) Haha~ Secondly, those boardgames were fun! I played the game - "I'm the boss". Freaking hell ~ I never thought that negotiation games can be so fun! Thirdly, you are playing with your friends. You aren't dancing beside a stranger nor a pretty babe, but simply close friends. When you played those boardgames to outwit one another, you are actually building up funny memorable moments in each other's life. Finally, the customer service is excellent. I admired the waiters' patience! Imagine yourselves having to explain the game rules to difference groups of newbies over and over again every night. How? Can you still put on a smile? Haha ~ oh well, they can!
How do the cafe make money then? 1st, they charge $2 - $2.50 per person an hour for playing the boardgames. Don't be surprised if you seat there playing for 5 hours straight! Haha, that will be an average of $10 per head simply for boardgame. 2nd, when you are playing the games, you talk alot. Inevitably, you will have to order at least 2 drinks per visit. Costing around $4 per drink, you gonna spend around $8 on drinks (doubled it if you order alcohol). If you gonna have a meal there, it won't cost you a fortune too. Just $6.90 for a decent western meal. All in all, the cafe can make up to $20 to $25 per head. With the positive experiences that friends share together over the boardgames, it is highly likely that they will frequent the cafe again. As you need friends to play these games, you gonna introduce more friends into the cafe through words of mouth. Once again, at almost zero cost, the cafe is able to build its customer base.
Freak ~ now that I am at home, I wish that I can spend more time there with my good friends! Do give it a try!

Finally the saga is over. I can't believe that the police is spending time "investigating" this case. It's just some cutout sticked in public places mah. Must the police make such a big deal out of it huh?
Oh well, if you know the case well, you should know that Minister Vivian Balakdrishnan was one of the few to see the white elephants. I bet that if it's just any other man-on-the-street who witness it, the police will simply pull out the cutout and then continue cycling down the road. Wait, I don't see police cycling nowaday. Ok, driving down the road.
Wah sei, I have already said in the previous post. The most powerful tool that Singaporean are entitled to is just online petition. Don't come up with this type of stunt lah. Luckily, the culprit got away with just a stern warning. Haha ~ I wonder who that brave heart is.

There is a case to be on trial next week. Lawyer-A and Lawyer-B are the opposing parties. In this coming week, Lawyer-A does all his research for the case. He went through sleepless night trying to support his argument. Day in, day out, he is inside his study room preparing his speech. Lawyer-B did exactly the same thing too. The only difference? Lawyer-B went on to read up on the Judge for the case. He went through Judge's profile even before he starts his research on the case.
I think you understand what I am trying to hit at? Lawyer-B may just put in the same effort on the case, yet he directs it toward the determinant of the case's outcome - the Judge. Everything equal, who will most likely convince the Judge? You decide.
Isn't it the same in class? Your professor determines your grade. Yet, term in term out, I have friends who whinned to me how much effort they have put into the course and ended up with average grades instead? Sigh ...... other than yourself, who is the next person in determining your grade? That's the professor!
You don't bloody walk to the professor to demand A+ just because you put in ultra effort. You don't do all the bloody long reports thinking that the professor will read every single line. You got to give what the professor wants! You should understand his/her style even before you start your research! Don't fucking waste your time doing things that he/she won't appreciate.
It's the same in the business world. Your boss isn't going to evaluate you based on the problems you faced, but on the solutions you gave. Give him what he wants, and he will reward you with what you want too.
But of coz, don't mistaken it as bootlicking. This is simply "understanding your audience". Don't come to me again, telling me how much you deserve good grade just because of your effort. Take my words - Effort counts ..... only if you succeed.

Yesh, that's the number of dengue cases in my area. By "area", I don't mean Yishun. I mean - Yishun Street 72. Tamade, the block next door has the highest infected rate in the whole of Singapore.

This is my first cartoon watched on the big screen. Sigh, one word sum it all - Disappointed.
Plot isn't refreshing. Too much singing. Too many one-liner comedy. Maybe I have went in the cinema with too high an expectation.
To its credit, there were some funny moments. The graphic was good. All dark and grey - my fav color. Whaahaa ~ 3 out of 5 stars.

It's so frequent that I wonder if it is yesterday's news. Why is it that France is freaking prone to labor strike huh? One moment farmer-strike, next moment public worker strike. Aren't you glad Singaporean isn't as crazy? Hahaha ~
This time round, hundreds of thousands of protesters rallied against French government policy. The interesting thing is ....... most of these strikers are public sector workers. Tamade ~ they already have job security, decent salaries and guaranteed pension, what the hell do they want? Should bring them to Singapore and show them our pathetic CPF. Those strikers just want everything from the government, gosh.
Somehow, I'm glad that Singapore workforce isn't as crazy. If you want to organise strike, you will be caught even before you step out of your house. Haha. Hmmm..... come to think about it, has there ever been any real strike in Singapore huh? The most powerful thing Singaporean are capable of? Online petition! Wahahaha ~

*M* = Movie
I used to hate his acting. He runs like no other body. In chinese, we called it, "got wind". Chey, his acting used to suck big time. Overacting. Act macho.
As he ages, his acting mature along the way too. Gosh, this movie is simply great. How often do you watch a movie and the dialogue kept on lingering in your mind? Not so frequent, right? This phrase caught my attention for the whole night: "You hide because you want people to find you."
Come to think about it, one doesn't need to live 70 years to be considered "living". Neither do you need approval from everyone when you simply want to follow your heart. Some things can't be changed, we just have to live on with it.
Gosh, I feel like watching the movie once again. 4 out of 5 stars.

Came across this article on The Asian Wall Street Journal this morning. Wah ~ how often do you find this paper having some ethical debate? Hehe ~
Hmmm.... the number of Down syndrome live births has declined 7.8% from 1989 to 2001. Good news: Less suffering. Bad news: Highly likely due to more abortion. This is an overly-debated topic, yet this research paper conducted by a student is able to spark off some controversy.
Oh well, I am pro-abortion, that's for sure. If the prenatal test diagnoses the fetuses with disabilities, my firm stand is to terminate it. Why bring a child into suffering? Why if you have the choice?
I have worked with down syndrome adult during my community services. I pited him, and I pited the mum even more. He was 25 years old, and she was close to 50. Guess what, she looked much older. I believe the burden has weighted on her. Yesh, every mum will go "he ain't heavy, he is my son", but look at it from the practical point of view, you have the choice now. That's what prenatal testing is for!
Touch wood, but one fine day, if your doctor is gonna say this to you, "Your fetuse has been diagnose with down syndrome." Tell me, what's your decision? Your comment?

How can anyone explain what's goes on in those idiotic suicide bombers? Aren't they killing their own people? Out of the 17 dead, 14 are Indonesians. To hell with their glory call to chase the Western out from the country. Fucking brainless puppets.
Fuck those idiots. Now, I see their heads on the newspaper. I wish their families and friends see it. I hope their whole fucking families are shamed. While there were World War I and II decades ago, our time will be remembered for having breeded these idiots.

$66.40 a barrel today. 2 months ago, when I was working in the corporate finance department of a local firm, I had to keep track of the daily oil prices. It was hovering at around 50 bucks back then. Wah sei .....
Anyway, I feel that we are not doing enough to replace oil as our main source of energy. Someday, the well is going to dry up. 50 or 60 years from now, it will be the nuclear energy age. Which ever nation is going to be a nuclear power will be the new big brother in the world. Wanna bet?

Ironically, I am back in the blogging world. In the past 2 years, I have 2 blogs titled "A letter to myself" and "A letter to you...instead" respectively. I closed them after I moved on. Oh well, maybe I was just escaping from my own memories. Continuing writing back then will only hold me back in life.
So why am I back here? Hmmm...... I enjoyed blogging. I want to express my opinions. I want to crap and bullshit. Haha ~ that gives birth to the title of this blog - "Writing all over the walls". In this blog, I want to express my opinions on current affairs instead. Nah, I will keep the topics on my life to the bare minimum. ~ Haha, yes I will try.
So seat back and enjoy my bullshit. Read if you care. Shut up if you can. Sue me if you want. Damm~
