The Art of Von Dutch

I think everyone should know that Dutch is an actual person a legend and not just a clothing line. He probably would have flipped in his grave knowing that BKK and Shenzen was selling tees with his flying eyeballs for $2.99 in different colours.

The hunt is sweeter than the kill

Life of David Gale.

I watched this movie some years back. Loved what he said about fantasies. I think I should be happy with my pay, because once I get it, I always want more.. more toys; more bicycles ; bigger house; motorbikes...blah blah blah..


... fantasies have to be unrealistic. Because the moment, the second you get what you seek, you don’t, you can’t want it anymore. In order to continue to exist, desire must have it’s objects perpetually absent. It’s not the it that you want; it’s the fantasy of it. So desire supports crazy fantasies. This is what Pascal means when he says that we are only truly happy when daydreaming about future happiness. Or why we say the hunt is sweeter than the kill, or be careful what you wish for. Not because you’ll get it, because you’re doomed not to want it once you do.
So the lesson of Leccan is, living by your wants will never make you happy. What it means to be fully human is to strive to live by ideas and ideals, and not to measure your life by what you’ve attained in terms of your desires, but those small moments of integrity, compassion, rationality, even self sacrifice. Because in the end, the only way that we can measure the significance of our own lives, is by valuing the lives of others.

Parking Idiots Blog

::Parking Idiot Blog::


To all my friends who drive :

Once upon a time, people hang out at void decks to play their guitar, chill with friends, and cop a smoke. Nowadays, armed with their cutting edge mobile phones, they snap cars of drivers who park badly. And name them, "Parking Idiots"

Friends, please park with caution !!Parking badly has moved up the rung on the inconsiderate level! Forget about taxi drivers swerving from the extreme right to pick up random passengers;drivers that don't indicate, drivers that indicate for nothing.Put away the woes from idiots who suddenly cut into your lane and hit their brakes.And bad parkers deserves to be lynched compared to those with their all mighty "Stop-Anywhere-Anytime-HAZARD LIGHT." syndrome.

Sidenote for those who have not met patients with this syndrome: They are the HE-Mans of the Road. Armed with their Hazard Light, they stop anywhere; middle of curve, one LANE street, busy road in town, or even at a turn. If you have not met them, good for you and praise the LORD.

(Ok friends, I am not saying that al'ofya are selfish or even park like sh*t. But I think that you might have experienced a bad park once in a while, especially in a deserted lot.

Sidenote to myself:

Hmmm, I wonder if there will be a site dedicated to people who open their doors really wide and f**king leave a dent on other people's car. I think that is more inconsiderate than parking on the line when the carpark is extremely empty.. Oh well, but thats just me.

Park well my friends, may the park be with you.

Singapore Poly Maritime Admins

I am not someone who usually shout at service people but those 2 admins at SP SMA really puts shame to the word bully.

It was a string of events but what made me blow was the way she asked me for payment. I believe that there are several ways to ask for payment but my reply from "Give me your card " does not constitue a "payment card la.. what card do you think it is?" I mean I have so many cards, from drivers license to credit cards, discount cards, employee card and key card. Which freaking card you 'behind- the counter-in-your-own-world-short-of-being-a-bitch' want?

I admit that I do look like a student and I was thinking if they treat the students the way they treated me, I pity the whole lot of them. It was definately a class act when they deal with students.

Only after realising that I am NOT a student of theirs do I see a smile, proper structured questions and get a welcome that comes behind a thank you.( Instead of constant hissing and mumbles)

Like I said, I never shouted at a stranger before. We were always told to respect our elders. If these are the people that we should naturally respect, I think its time to rethink my beliefs passed down to me. These two ladies do not deserve an inch of it. Kudos.

Oh my view from my study.Moving out soon ,(again).
