The Curious Case of the 2 Right Shoes

Have you ever wondered why shoes are made in such a way that there is 1 left and 1 right shoe and they come in a pair? This is because our feet are made this way. The shape is different to begin with. Try wearing 2 right shoes and see if you can walk properly, that is if you don't sprain ur left ankle first. By forcing yourself to wear a right shoe on your left feet, it will push your left feet in such a way that it will be painful.

So why do people want to wear 2 right shoes? Any reasons? Well, simply No. It is only because they have taken the wrong shoes to begin with. I have an army mate last year who bought the army New Balance shoes last year. He just took the size and paid. At the end of the day, as he was leaving the camp, he just opened the shoe box and to his surprise, there are 2 right shoes inside. Damn, if he could have checked at the point of purchase. To make matters worst, it was the last day of the ICT (In Camp Training). On a lighter side, at least its free of charge as he paid using credits given by the army.

A more recent example is when someone wanted to go to the gym. Full of energy and raring to go. Took out the shoes and tried it on. Hmmm, the shape seems the same for both shoes. Exact same size, model. Its just that one shoe seems more worn out than the other. To her surprise and mine, its 2 right shoes! HAHAHA. That certainly brought laughter to me. She should have checked instead of assumed that the shoes in the shoe bag are 1 pair. Lesson learnt: Do not buy shoes that are the same as your family. :p

Having said that, just caught The Curious Case of Benjamin Button yesterday. I must say it is a nice story but a bit too long the movie. It doesn't help when the seat in the cinema is uncomfortable and I have a little backache after 2hr 45mins inside. In addition, a little girl sitting just beside me farted twice during the show. It was loud hahahaha. She muttered 'Excuse me' after each fart.

2 right shoes and the case of Benjamin Button have 1 thing in common. It is a doomed pairing right from the start.

Sprained Ankle and Stretching Exercises

It has been 4 weeks since I last kicked a ball. Sprained my right ankle one fine Saturday morning, 5 mins into the game. I managed to play for another 2 hours or so. After which there goes my leg.

Even till now, if I try to bend my right ankle or put more pressure on it, it will hurt. It seems like an internal injury. I hope to shrug it off soon though. This coming Saturday, I will try to make my return to the game. Nothing too serious though, just easy play, to make my comeback slowly. I have been itching to kick a ball! hahaha

Just last night, I was reading a magazine when I saw this page which introduce 5 different exercises to boost core strength. This is useful for those who play active sports or simply just sit in office whole day. It will stretch your body and makes you more flexible. (Think YOGA)

Thinking that I should start to exercise after so long, I decided to try them. The first 4 was still managable. The 5th one was the killer. You are supposed to lie on your tummy (I put a folded blanket below to support). Then grabbing your ankles with your hands, you are to lift your torso and thighs up, then try to straighten your legs. Pure yoga stance I tell you. The end result supposed to look like a U shape. hahaha

The end result for me is that my whole back is aching for the whole of today. That is the result of 4 weeks of inactivity. In the midst of planning an exersise routine now though. Hope this routine helps afterall!

Motivate Motivate Motivate!

这就是爱

身为一个不爱交流,不爱说话的人,难怪到了三十岁还找不到一个适合的对象. 他就一个人过着自由自在的生活.

可是,就在这一天,一切将成为了历史,一切将改变了.这件事连他自几都没想过会发生.一个下午,他出门买午餐,在小饭中心选食物时,他身旁来了一个女子,很紧张,好象在找东西似的.他便问她在找什么.原来她的女儿不见了.他便帮她找,不久后找到了.那个女子不知道有多开心, 便要请他吃饭.他起初不要,但最后还是答应了.

奇怪的是.他们在吃饭时,谈了很多事.他也不知道自几今天怎么搞的,跟一个陌生人说了那么多心事.从她那里知到原来她离了婚,有一个五岁的小女孩.就在这时,那个小女孩转过脸来对他笑,灿烂得象太阳.他们三人就这样过了整个下午.

他们一直联络着.过了一段时期,也不知怎么搞的,他们谈到了结婚.认识不久就这样,他自几也不知道,或许她就是他所要的女子.他不管人家离过婚,只知道他们俩一定能过好日子的.就这样,他们结了婚,那个小女孩还叫他“爸爸”.

一转眼间,两年过去了.他还是以前那样,只是变得更沉默了.老婆要什么,他一定会给她.没人知道发生了什么事,也没人管.遥言说他怕老婆,不敢惹她生气.有的人却说,她暗中用了魔法,控制了他,名令他做全部的事情.可是就是没人管.

两年后的一天,一位住在他家旁边的男子看见他一个人在门口低头专注而认真地扫地,便走过去问他发生了什么事. 他看了男子一眼,用了一种平淡的语气对他说,“这就是爱”.

(平淡的人物,平淡的语气,然而包藏着相当深刻的意味)
以前老师的评语,哈哈,老师想太多了吧!

The day I learned that something out of place, may not be out of place after all

It was a warm day. I was in my bedroom reading the papers. They are going to arrive any minute now.

My mum has invited some of her friends over for a small gathering as part of the Chinese New Year celebrations. “Ding Dong!” Ah , here they come. There were 4-5 aunties and some brought their children and babies along! (to get more ang baos I suppose! Haha) With the usual formalities done and getting ang baos, I went back to my room and continue my reading, with the laughter, screaming of the kids and loud television sounds accompanying me.

After some time, I decided to go to the toilet. I passed by my mum’s bedroom and saw this cute little baby sleeping on the bed. Oh so cute! I went in and have a closer look. Then I realized, hey, how come that pillow beside the baby, and he’s not using it. Other than this out of place pillow, the bed is in a very tidy and ‘visitor welcoming pattern’.

The auntie must have accidentally shifted it la I thought. I decided to put the pillow back in place. Done, what a nice bed and a nice baby sleeping. I continued my journey to the toilet. After I am done, I happened to walk pass the bedroom again. I cannot resist going in and taking a look at the baby again. This time, his mum came in after me. I can see that she had a little shocked look on her face. She quickly took the pillow and put it back to the same spot again! I was surprised by her actions. She turned around and look at me. ‘Jialat liao’ I thought to myself. However she asked me in a nice voice if I put back the pillow. I said yes. She then calmly explained that she put the pillow beside the baby to block the baby from accidentally rolling over and falling off the bed. So the pillow served as a barrier to prevent an accident from happening!

‘Orr’ I replied. She smiled and so do I, albeit sheepishly. I took another glance at the baby and admired his look of serenity, not knowing that someone has tried to harm him or how his mum came to his rescue.

As I returned to my room, I told myself, not bad, I learned something new. That’s the day I learned that something out of place, may not be out of place after all!

Room 3-09

She was a beauty in most people’s eyes. Mine was no exception. From the 1st day I laid my eyes on her, I was totally smitten by her charm; the type of indescribable charm she emitted that made guys swarm to her like bees. I began my quest to woo her from day one.

Wait, something is not right here....

“K.C, Swee Lin, move him over to autopsy room 3-09, I’ll be there shortly. Thanks” boomed a voice. The voice seem to be coming from a distance. “Oh well what the heck” I thought.

“Eh, Swee Lin, so having a hot date tonight?” asked a male’s voice whom I presumed is K.C. “Yah la, hot date tonight, but not with you K.C!” Swee Lin replied with a mock laughter. Hmm…they seemed to be in a very relaxed mood.

“This guy sure is handsome, don’t you think so K.C?” “Yah, I must agree with you on this one Swee Lin. He looks like Tay Ping Hui, hunky built, but pity him..” Is he talking about me? Well I must attribute my good looks to my mum, the huge investment on facial care products etc…. Wait, that is not the point….

As the seconds trickled by, my worst fear began to materialize; Am I dead? I pondered for a while. My lungs are not gasping for air, I am having a good flow of oxygen around me, but then again, when you are dead, your lungs can take it easy, take it nice and slow. A sense of chillness went through my spine at this moment.

“Ah, K.C, let’s make it quick today, we are both busy people tonight. Let’s cut him up and perform an autopsy on him. Let’s see…no visible marks on his body as far as I am concerned..hmm…”

Another sense of chillness swept through my lower back and spine.

“Ah, Swee Lin, are you ready? I am going to remove the sheets on his lower body..” said K.C. “Ya lah, I know what you are thinking of K.C!” Laughter filled the room at this moment.

“Wa lau eh, he got a HUGE dick! Not bad for an Asian man today!” Swee Lin exclaimed. Hey there, I am proud of my manhood ok…6 inches long without errection, try and beat that K.C!

“Haha, ok Swee Lin, that’s enough, that’s really not the MAIN focus now” said K.C sarcastically. Hey K.C, you must be feeling inferior now man! What a 360 degree change of attitude. I am really feeling cold on my back now…it feels as though I am lying on some metal bed…Hang on, what’s that feeling..makes me feel hot…as if blood is rushing to my manhood..I can feel some rubbery thing stroking my dick..

“Alright Swee Lin, you had your ‘fun’, I am going to cut a little portion of his lower abdomen to check for any intestinal infection of some sort, you know, these things are never visible to the naked eye unless u take a look inside.”

What?! Cut me up? Hey K.C, fuck you. Can anyone pass me the hand phone or dial 999 for me? There’s an insane man here who talks about wanting to see my intestines and cutting me up and jealous of my 6 inch penis.

“HEY K.C, SWEE LIN, HANG ON! DO NOT DO ANYTHING!!” echoed a voice repeatedly. Hey, have I not heard this voice before! There was a moment of silence all around me suddenly. I hear the door being crashed open.

“He’s not dead, just paralysed! Dr Tan found a kuku spider in his haversack, poor guy, and the spider must have sneaked into his haversack when he was trekking in Mount Ophir and bit him when he was sleeping on the coach on his way back to Singapore. You all know how irritating these spiders are, not venomous but create enough toxins to knock you out and paralyse you,” came the all so familiar voice.
“ OH MY GOD, Swee Lin, Look!” gasped K.C. She was holding a fully erected penis in her hands now. My eyes were blinded momentarily by the glaring lights shinning at me as they opened slowly…..

********************

I thought I have found the love of my life in Kimberly. We dated for 1 year 2 months 3 days and oh well what the heck.

Reason for the breakup? Sexual Incompatibility. I realized I was impotent unless she was wearing rubber gloves.

New Year, New Blog!

1st post of 2009, a bit late, but nonetheless its finally here. Decided to shift all the previous blog entries from the friendster blog to this blogspot blog. A cleaner interface and easy to read layout. Thanks to Jasmine for helping me with the setting up and the selection of this nice blog skin. (I was too lazy to do it haha)

Anyway, I hope to do a more regular update of this blog as well as the update of my story, the curse of the ancient souls part 3. Stay tuned.

(p.s: if you want your blog link to appear on my blog, just leave me a comment and I will do it hahaha)

Something which I have wrote in a moment of inspiration a couple of weeks ago. Enjoy :)

Passion of Spring

The New Year brings us lots of surprises
Which in turn makes our morale rises

The turn of the seasons to that of spring
Along with the passion that it will bring

Gone are the long hard days of winter
Where everything else seems to wither

Though the days are still long
I hope our love will remain strong

May our passion spread far and wide
And relieve everyone through this economic tide
