ok blog readers.. although theres like only 2 people whom i know, who actually bothers to visit my blog and read it, but whatever i'll still blog =) went out today, but i wont blog about that till i get some pics, didnt really take much though..
so i shall blog about my trip to marina with my poly friends yesterday - dick, john, ray, melvin and alex. i actually asked ray out to shop and asked him to get more people if he wanted to, but because he got more people who don't really shop, we ended up watching a movie instead haha
21 i wont say that the show is bad, because i found the storyline rather interesting, however, the plot is rather predictable and some of the scenes were really boring.. nevertheless, its not bad a movie if you ask me.

so other than that, i ate twice with them, which they found interesting, cos im hardly a big eater when im with them lol and we gay-ed with each other after that... im jus kidding, nothing else happened =/ not even shopping! which i originally planned...
as you can see, theres ads and polls in my blog now. haha just wanna see if they actually work =x so please do the poll! onegai shimasu! if it works i might treat you guys to something =p
went out with wency and queena yesterday for dinner, because im really sick of my maid's cooking! its the same fish/chicken and vegetable + soup everyday which doesnt even taste nice!
*note to self: never buy clorets dark secret again! it has an after taste of teh tarik + clorets ._. get the normal clorets or eclipse mint!*
the day started quite badly for me ._.
i tried styling my hair for a(n) long extremely long time.. but it just wouldn't cooperate with me =x
so i just left my hair flat the entire day (bad idea!)
we ate at plaza singapura's food court for a change - since theres only 3 of us so we didnt need any lavish meals that cost a bomb =p i had beef noodles! something that i really craved for a long time, since the beef noodle stall in chinatown gone.
after which we walked to paragon. had some fun in toy'r'us (ok, now we've got evidence to show that queena is a violent lady! lol) before heading to our chilling spot, coffee bean.
hmmm..
that flat hair made me look kinda flat in some pics =/
crapped a lot there.. and because these two gila girls wanted so badly to sit on the couch (theres 2 but 1 of which is occupied), we had to sqeeze ourselves into that small couch which is sooooo cozy super warm.. and although we looked like a fool when we tried to take consecutive shots on the camera, we really had a lot of fun haha i really enjoyed it (we took close to a hundred pics of just 3 of us) =p
then we went home after that. on the bus-ride home, queen was telling me some of her dreams.. thats when i realise how weird her dreams were. weird and spooky~
can't wait for bmcb's concert somehow haha maybe its because its my alma mater and ive never been to a concert for a long time! furthermore, the concert is free for me! and last but not least, im starting to think that i sound a bit like queen =x and thats not good.. maybe i shouldnt hang out with her so much *nods head* haha
enjoy! some entertainment =) (about 30+ pics)
ok, its abt 630am now so i guess i should go to sleep =) caleb
was blog-hopping yesterday, when i stumbled into this website full of interesteing videos! btw that website is singapore based, meaning all the vids are from sg, i think ._.
btw, yesterday was the first time that im actually bothered to read xiaxue's blog and i found it interesting =x anyway, back to the topic.. here are some of the videos that i found rather amusing:
so check them out.. ok, so other than those vids from that website, ill do a bit of reviews on some japanese/korean drama and movies that i've watched =)
Hana Yori Dango Season 2 (Japanese Drama) Main Actress - Inoue Mao (totally cuteness! kawaii!) Supporting Actress - Matsushima Nanako (also seen in the drama GTA)
one of the reason why i love the hana yori dango series is because i love 2 of the actresses who acted in this film (stated above). other than that, the storyline is similar to the one in meteor garden 2, though its not an exact replica.
[i think that ive got a thing for japanese girls in japanese school uniforms =x]

Attack On The Pin-Up Boys (Korean Movie) i decided to watch this movie because i thought that its gonna be a really hilarious movie based on it's title and also because it's under the recommended section! i decided to gave it 1/2 a monkey only because some of the lame scenes crack me up and i love the musical-liked ending that they had =p (im a fan of musicals). so other than that, don't bother watching it.
Caleb's Rating: ( 1/2 monkey /5)
2 Faces Of My Girlfriend (Korean Movie) although i knew that this movie was a romance/comedy-themed one, i really didnt expect the romance part of it to be so heartwarming? (hope i used the right word =P) the ending was quite rushed imo, but nevertheless, its a great movie for all romance lovers.
Caleb's Rating: ( 3 monkeys /5)
Seducing Mr. Perfect (Korean Movie) i remember seeing this title somewhere before, so ive decided to watch it. hmm, all i got to say is that the storyline is quite boring, because its not novel. - guy meets girl, - guy likes girl but acts hostile, - girl begins to like the guy, - guy needs to leave the country, - then they lived happily ever after. boring~
Caleb's Rating: ( 1 1/2 monkeys /5)
Virgin Snow (Mix - Korean/Japanese Movie) not a super great movie, but quite a decent one. i particularly loved the lost in transaction part - korean who doesnt speak japanese living in japan and falling in love with a japanese girl. an above average movie =)
Caleb's Rating: ( 3 monkeys /5)
btw, i watch all my drama/movies at mysoju and ill will blog about our coffee bean retreat soon.. so thats all for now, sayonara. caleb

some additional info: heard this song, in the violin version, from the anime "la corda d'oro" - an anime which wency introduced to me and i fell in love with it. so thanks wenn and enjoy the song =)
Classical Melodies is now known as Cantabile. Reason: because i realise that some of the songs that i want to add to the list might not be considered as a "classic" =p
is this hairstyle nice? wenn said that it looked like crap but i seem to like it ._.
[FOCUS on the hair and not my face.. ignore my dark eye circle/eyebags and pale complexion due to lighting. cover my face with your fingers if you have to =x]
recieved a sms from ms chong this morning afternoon (which woke me up), about having free tixs for the bmcb concert. i rejected her offer at first because i might have a dinner around that time, though its not confirmed and i thought that the regulars didnt want to go. but since gin and the rest decided to go in the end, i took up ms chong's offer =) so just hope that my dinner doesnt fall on that sunday *twists fingers and pray hard* lol
anyway, concerts remind me of something - jubilance. my concert haha, or rather an ex-bmcb concert. something about it just makes it so hard to forget. maybe its because its the few things that ive ever fought so hard for.
will blog about all these nolstagic memories if i want to in another entry =p but heres one of the songs that i really love, which we played during the concert:
anyway, before i start typing a whole bunch of nothing, lets entertain you with some pics =)
ok so i saw the penguin in wenn's blog, so i decided to post this picture lol why did my sis buy 6? because they represent my dad, mum, sis, biggest bro, big bro and me =p
paperclips from australia! i got paperclips because my sis couldnt find any clothes that would fit me lol so thanks sis =)
my cousin is finally back from the states. why "finally"? because for the previous years she has been studying and working there, but now she's.. ermm, how should i put it.. back for good? lol yeah, u get the idea =p haha she'll be staying in sg now and this is the boxers that she bought for me (though this is only my second pair cause im not a boxer fan, thank you!)
anyway, let me now tell you why ive not been online these few days.
Rhapsody - A Musical Adventure [this is the japanese cd cover! i chose this over the US one cos its nicer =p]
this is a really interesting rpg. why is that so? because its the first musical rpg that ive ever played. yup, this is a rpg game which comprises songs that the characters actually sing exactly like a musical. but i would like to comment on something - please get better singers/songwriters next time!
the game is fairly easy to play and the storyline is easy to follow. so i would like to appluade the efforts of the creator to actually create this game, which i think have got a great potential to go further if they improve it!

anyway, this is the reaon why ive not been online on sunday =p i have been chiong-ing this game and managed to complete the entire game by monday morning lol
which leads to the next question, what about monday? before i answer that question, let me tell you what i did on monday =) woke up earlier than the time that im used to wake up at to prepare for the lunch that we're going to have with my cousins.
we had dim sum lunch in chinatown (my dad's customer's shop). and it was really filling and nice lol my dad kept on ordering dishes after dishes because my sis and bro-in-law was late and was afraid that they werent full. so everyone ended up stuffing ourselves =D
after which, we went home. i slept a while, wake up for dinner and then sleep again! lol so i slept early and thus was not online yesterday =p (slept for 18 hrs lol) and i guess you'll be able to guess why im so sleepy right. (hint for those who dont - rhapsody)
What do you Love the most? - Hmm.. i love monkeys =) but apart from that, the thing that i love the most would be the feeling of satisfaction =)
What do you Want the most? - CLEAR COMPLEXION! ok thats not what i want the most. hmm, i want to be famous for something good.
What do you Hate the most? - i guess i hate being alone?
What do you Fear the most? - my biggest fear would be dying in an accident with all your guts and intestines hanging out of your body =D nah, just kidding haha, it would be the fear of rejection.

today is shades day! and why is that so? because i decided to make the dress code to include sunglasses today. haha, went to town with wenn and queen today (somebody forced me to go lol)
oh and before i blog anything about that, i wanna say something! i just realised how many pair of jeans i have ._. i have got like 6 pairs, of which i only wear 5 of them, cos the last one is of lousy quality from bugis street haha. i always thought i have got like only 4 pairs.
and its time to pack my wardrobe and hang my jeans =x
anyway, lets continue with the outing..
the cam-whoring session started the moment i met her at the bus-stop ._. did i mention that she's late? lol
we decided to eat at suki sushi which was cheap and nice =) unfortunately, this was the only nice picture that i took.
after which, we went shopping and then chilled at our second last stop - starbucks.
and then we ended our day at macdonalds in lucky plaza. pics that were taken there only comprises of queen and wenn, so im not gonna post it!
at the end of the day, i realise that it was more of the girls having a blast shopping and me just following them for entertainment during lunch and dinner.. as usual lol
anyway, because its quite boring to just blog about the outing, ive decided to add some stuff to brighten up this entry =)
critic on the before pic: "the guy look soo dull! the hair is like a stack of hay and he's clothes are ugly. and to top that off, he look so pissed. it's just a very bad photo! tsk tsk"
critic on the after pic: "hmmm, love the hair <3 and you can also see how he exude confidence from the slight smile on he's face! gorgeous! but on the side note, he still look pissed though."
so as you can see, makeovers can bring out your confidence and highten your self-esteem! (if youre reading this and think that this is meant for you, then it is =))
haha ok, that was lame and crappy. both of the pictures look hot to me =p but my point is, makeovers are really helpful. get one if you need one!
the battle between the monkeys lol. which monkey do you think is cuter? brownie or kirouchi?
btw, i love them both and they are sleeping beside me every night =)
so those were just craps haha and now for the real thing - photos of me with shades =x
the emo shader ._.
if im ever famous lol
oh, wenn and riah, i know what both of you can buy for me already! shirts - long or short sleeve =D just realise that ive got only 2 shirts for day outings.
wanted to play cabal online, but my bro is watching tv online and its super laggy =( so i shall blog about the dinner that i had with wenn yesterday (19th june)
we ate bbq seafood at alexander village.
after which, we went to anchorpoint to have desserts =9
looks yummy doesnt it? too bad! haha you only get to see the pictures ._.
and then we did some grocery shopping and went back home.
oh and i shall declare today shades day. why? ill tell you after today =p
as ive said, i'll be blogging about the regulars june celebration and also my outing with my poly friends yesterday.
let's start with yesterday..
we met up in school to first collect our diplomas, and then went on to celebrate being diploma holders lol. we actually wanted to watch a movie but due to limited time slots and movie titles, we've walked all the way from ps, to cine and then to wheelock place just to eat our dinner and decided to cancel the movie. we wanted to eat fish & co. but it was closed down ._. and since we're already almost fainting due to hunger, we just ate at nydc, and as i expected, the food really sucked.
i don't ever think i'll ever step into nydc again! and then after that, we went to far east to get some turkish ice cream and ended our eating journey at selegie's "taw huay" - soy beancurd. after that we walked back to cathay and chilled for about 15mins or so before going home. saw a couple of celebrities there, like fann and christopher and also pierre png. (wonder if theres some gala premier of some movie).
saw this in carrefour. didnt know that there's orange hooch!
so that's it for yesterday, quite wordy eh? haha hardly took any pics, because its kinda gay to take pics of having 10-11 guys right? lol
and now for the sunday's outing, the june's babies peeps celebration cum kelvin's farewell. it was organised by me! and helped by wenn and queen.
heres a summary of the events: 1. dinner at waraku at central - although it was quite expensive, i really loved the food there! haha wouldn't mind eating there anytime.
i really love this pic somehow =p
babe and me*
gin and queen (love the flared effect lol)
kel and gin
professional photography with a lousy camera by caleb =)
food I!
food II!
various dishes =9
my presents!
2. drinks at jazz@southbridge (only me, rence and riah lol) - i planned to have drinks there because of the nice ambience and stuff, but they thought it was a bit too expensive, just because we didn't know that theres no happy hours during the weekends everywhere lol
3. drinks at eski bar - we ended up drinking here, our usual spot haha. the price was equivalent to the ones at jazz but we had lots of fun anyway =P
the guys, excluding me =(
me and wenn
me and queen
4. ice cream at 7-11 (only me, riah and gin) - 3 of us sneaked out to have ice cream while we went to get the poker cards =P
sorry, the ice cream was just pure indulgence and it tempted me to give it a bite before i could take picture of it.
looks kinda like husband, kid and wife, dont you think?
5. back to eski bar and then headed to macdonalds (only me, riah, wenn, queen and gin) - we had a bit of a late night snack before we headed home!
and this was actually the few times that i actually sent a girl right back to the doorstep lol
