from green to black

happenings

very happy about the pleasant coincidence today where
we were both in costume for halloween. i really thought
you were joking when you said you would dress up. hmmm
gutsy. i like.

walked around as the phantom today. somehow i looked
realistic enough for a few girls to stop me for a
picture. i must have done something right i guess.

more importantly, i learnt one thing about my friends
today. when i'm wearing a mask, i can expect some of
them to know me no matter what i do to hide. it gives
me a kindda a warm feeling because i know these are the
friends who've gone through enough of me that even if
they hardly see me, i'll always have been a part of them.
of course some friends left me very disappointed because
i deliberately left some signs for them to pick up, but
they didnt. so maybe we're not as tight as i thought we
were. so sad when everyone matters to me... oh well

wearing a mask was also thought me another lesson. no
one really knows what you are like underneath, you
could be a weirdo, psychopath or a pervert and nobody
knows. i could be scowling underneath and nobody knows.
but i guess thats sad if people have to live their life
that way, hidden. i wanted to reveal myself to my friends
the ones that i want to have a good time with. because
i want them to know, and enjoy my happiness along with
them. no schadenfreude or reverse schadenfreude. just
pure we're happy together. simple.

i overheard a conversation that i was wearing a mask
because i had low self-esteem which i found very amusing.
but i would understand totally if a person with low self
esteem did. but heck, allow a guy to relax and have fun
for a day, i doubt its fun being a stodgy singaporean,
stiff-necked all the time. i'll rat race you later.

so anyway, this is a picture i really like that was
taken by my biz sch classmates. its just so me!



i really wanted to post my video online but it was just
too big. i tried twice. so i guess that bit of fun is
saved in a little corner in my comp.

but hey after i checked, well, here it is!!!


got a new car today, so its the end of the tonner as
we know it. and i hate it already! too high tech.
the door auto closes which makes it very very slow,
and that means i have less control over the dumb
sliding door. you can imagine the trouble we'll have
if the door wont close properly. next its only an 8
seater so i cant have as much fun with a big group.
ok heck, i'm not complaining since its for my dad's
use anyway, but i really should have got my bike
license while in army. i would have bought my bike
by now.

for my other project, well, here are some photos
to show you guys why i've been so busy.



my project group



a better view of the marriage costume of the batak
people in indonesia i believe. well for the guys,
the culture there is for the wife to "support" the
husband. so think you can get a good deal? ;)



and this, is a traditional neighbourly welcome token.

alright, back to writing essays. bugger tutor just
cut me one grade because of style. what flimsy
reasoning! but then again when the man is so lazy
i dont think he bothered to seriously consider my
essay. damn how am i supposed to slack during exams
like this. drats!
