Familiar- Incubus

shucks this song has such an electro feel! i love incubus and their musical diversity. it's like you can't even define what kind of band they are, because they are just so unique. that's what i aspire to be man.

i had quite a good weekend :) friday night was movie marathon at shaun's with the 'starbucks' gang. haha. we watched Fight Club! GOSH brad pitt and edward norton are such fabulous actors. the film was truly mindblowing.

"i am jack's broken heart."
"it's only when you lose everything that you're free to do anything."

then we watched Eurotrip. it was the most retarded film i've ever watched, and one of the funniest. AHA! what with the excessive emphasis on butts and boobs and the dear old Pope. "Scotty doesn't know, Scotty doesn't know..."

saturday began in the evening for me. :D had dinner with nat and joel at that ramen place in cine; the food was actually quite good. so yes, we talked and talked and talked and drifted around town for a while before i went to meet the daryl they all.

anyhows, spent the night out with the boys. only found out during breakfast that their prelims start like NEXT WEEK. goodness me. i tried nagging at them before but they just give you that "ya ya will la" and ignore you to show they don't want to talk about it. geez.
oh and we watched Red Shoes. it was a bloomin' stupid movie but i was daft enough to scream when everybody else was laughing. that sure was a highly embarrassing 2 hours for me. played pool after that, and i realised how much i've lost my touch. to think me and jin li were the Pool Sisters! *guffaws

so yes, it was past 4am by the time we were done with pool. wei min tricked us into thinking that it took only 15 minutes to walk to his godpa's area for breakfast. idiot. it took us more than an HOUR la. i was the most unfit out of all of them, so the same went for my tenacity. i was half asleep and exercising at very ungodly hours.

i think the 9 to 5 telemarketing job has me going quite obssessed with trying as much as possible to maximise my non-working time. such a routine sucks the life out of you; trust me. thank goodness my job scope doesn't include such dry occupations in the future. i'm gonna be a freelance whatever. hahaa. journalist! i wanna be a tv journalist cum underground musician! which means that in the singaporean aspect, i'm gonna be a very financially-tight person. i guess one has to strike that balance between earning enough to live comfortably and living out your dreams. not that money isn't a big draw, but such material gains can only motivate you for so long. after all, it's 40 years to consider. not everybody gets to die early, you know. while life is truly unbearable, it's also meant to be enjoyed. then again, maybe some can enjoy it better with possessions. others find that joy in simply being with the ones they love. it's just how you see it. what's more important at the end of the day? i hope i'll actually be able to think this way 10 years down the road.

i honestly feel that human existence is such a paradox. we are created with the ability to make choices that eventually destroys us somehow. sometimes, i feel like i'm just one of God's toys out of billions. i mean, people choose to believe in the unseen, in having faith and in ambiguity because we realise how little control we have over lives. when do you take things into your own hands and when do you let go? that's a delicate question. is giving up really necessary?
