i thought slamming the car door into my fingers was painful. today i did it with one of those cold storage room doors. they're heavy, industrial use and all, thick as hell. now my finger's bleeding, and swollen. ouch. at least i wont be able to show the middle finger with my right hand, har har! but writing damn susah, man. adoi.

friday night... am gonna burrow deep in and stay home. watch reruns. told my bud surin that i won't pick up any calls! hee hee. last night was bad enough, getting to see the insides of at least three establishments...

totally into old-school hip-hop today. from Rapper's Delight to White Lines to Planet Rock... memories come flooding back oh! when i was a little boy (wakakakakakaaa) we were totally into the early scene, the movies Breakin' and Beat Street were hot. people were doing their moves all over the place, including the back of the class during lessons. yours truly might even have been an adept body-popper ; ) but never never ask me to show ya!

one thing i couldn't do were the big moves like headspins and other acrobatic stuff. a little backspin was OK but i think my muscle tone was pretty bad back then... and the establishment frowned upon such 'Western' cultures, so there was not much we could do. Unlike now, i think this sorta thing might even have Rakan Muda backing??!! what we had at the birth of the hip-hop scene, is now so mainstream... god i feel old, like a historian or something.

it was a fun time though. the growth of the Brit New Romantic scene, when music was good. drinking shandy in the afternoons. riding bicycles. we rented these 'How To' videos for breakdancing even. why was i never good i wonder, must be cos of my self-perception, har har.

met my hip-hop buddy from back in da day... he's got kids now. it's a linear progression, this. perhaps some of us just refuse to move along : (

ok time to go for bukak, hahah. what issit for tonite ah.. did go to the vegetarian shop but ate the curry mee - not bad but would've preferred the BKT version. laparrr gilaaaaa....

it's amazing, how we influence the people in our lives. i was talking to my ex from the ooollldddd days (circa 1992) and she was going on and on about how she watches lotsa foreign movies, so i asked her, 'i wonder where you got that from.' the answer's obvious here.

and in so many other ways lah, where our ideas, our actions, have such far-reaching effects. most times i think i've been positive but there are cases where i've been really really bad... hmmm... it's really hard to tell what we're imparting with and the consequences of our actions, yeah?!

mind's still a wee bit clouded from the excesses of the night before. i really really thought i'd get away from that, but... they just won't let me??!! ho ho ho. well, i really didn't mind the company and the music, til the chappie started playing Modern Talking. and this in Telawi 3. sheeettzzzz. didn't know there were so many Jinjang Joes there.

i'll remedy that with some Rapper's Delight. totally old-school. peace.

was reading the Nihtin Sawhney article in the paper. didnt know he was in town. and didnt know about his background til now.

thing is, we can relate to a lot of stuff in there, eh. different circumstances, different effect.

frig, i'm hungry. been up and about much of the day. it's 9.10pm and i shud have my dinner soon. my choices are as follows:

a) Mamak opposite Pearl Point Shopping Mall. trustworthy for about 10 years now, especially after drinking sessions! we even used to drink there, but would considerately bring our own cups and buy their coke, or something like that. Maggi Goreng Cili Padi to die for. ask for the cili padi, it's an option.

b) Prawn Mee at the corner of Jln Kuchai Lama and Klang Lama; there's only one grouping of stalls there (behind Plaza Prima ;) ) Quality is erratic; some days it's bland and watery, while on the good days - WHOA! yummy. since the stall at Rest. New Seaview closed, this is the nearest to get a fix lah.

c) Vegetarian food, Mega Mendung, OUG. now... this is a new phenom for me. ate a wonderful vegetarian BKT at the shop besides the RHB Bank, and it was really really good (i'm biased towards the herbal mix of BKT anyways). and there's all sortsa stuff too, like Otak-otak, burgers, noodles (all meat-less, of course). the proprietors seemed very friendly too, chatting with the customers and all.

i think (c) wins for the night. off i go then.

love n peace

two hormones interest me most - endorphins and pheromones ;) their production is very closely intertwined, aren't they? hee hee.

wish i had some endorphin production now. need a dose.

what shall i do for the afternoon, eh... hmm...
been surfing some websites today, and these are business sites. damn, the grammar and spelling can be atrocious! the biggest most glaring error has to be the term 'soonest possible' (like, what the fuck does that mean?!) when it should be 'as soon as possible'. if you sent me a resume mentioning 'soonest possible', i'll chuck it into the bin. no exceptions.

the event for the weekend was PULP FICTION. wow havent seen it in such detail before, especially with the Trivia Track. so much information (sometimes irrelevant!)... quickly i've gone to get other Tarantino movies like True Romance, with Jackie Brown coming soon. don't we just love honest brutality.

my sunday... watching the rain fall all evening and night. i was surprised how fast time flies just by flipping the papers! it was pretty depressing too. i had one of em moments when we ponder on our finite limited lives. how much i've wasted time, and how often i've abused this temple which is my body. i regret my actions, but when irreparable damage is done, regrets will only add to the tension of things.

it's monday, footie nite! it's my favourite part of the week, apart from saturdays. it's the rush of getting hot and sweaty with me mates, lah. running around burning calories, never felt fitter. if only my stats will reflect that...

ok enough of griping about things we can't change. acceptance of our fate (sometimes) is necessary for us to move on and deal with the issue.

wtf??!!

love and peace, my dears.
