The game of quick drawing

Pictionary rocks. Pictionary is the source of entertainment of the century. Pictionary surpasses clubs, booze, maybe even Mariah Carey. Pictionary is the weed and the E that gives you that high, that intoxication when you're sober, that adrenaline rush when you're down and out, that genuine element of fun that was long lost and forgotten ever since you set foot into the world of Megan Foxes and crap assignments. Believe me when I say this, the enjoyment and satisfaction you get when you successfully beat out 10 of your opponents to roll that coveted piece of dark-blue cube a.k.a The Dice to move forward, surge ahead and break free from the rest of the herd is not some preposterous figment of this (at times twisted, I do admit) individual's tortured imagination.
Ok, I'll stop here. In other words, it is a really good game to play with friends.

To Siah: Do enjoy yourself in NUS, man. Take care, God Bless and All the Best! You're gonna have a wonderful 4 years there. Don't forget to remember me, ok? I need a place to crash in the future. Lol. See you soon.

Signing off with 2 pics. Cheers!

p.s. Kj, Zie and Tiana will be here tomorrow. Fun mode: On

ENFP

Zie, Shum and Tiana were talking about this Myers-Briggs personality test thingy on their blogs and I couldn't help myself but to try it out. I am Extroverted, Intuitive, Feeling and Perceiving (ENFP). 68% for both E and F, and 12 and 11 % for N and P respectively. Too lazy to write out the description, so just go google Myers-Briggs and go read it. I do agree with some of the points though. Apparently around 6-8 percent of Americans are of this particular type.

Hmm, morning jogs are effective. There has been a significant increase in amount of food intake ever since I started on Monday. Waking up early and having breakfast= A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. Plus, they help you gain weight ( according to most of the online weight-gain articles). Keep it up, Timothy Lau Zer Hern! (and Siah Tiong Shie and Tan Chien Hing and hopefully Yapp Hionk Yen too).

p.s. I have now banned myself from wasting any more of my time on a crap game called Typing Maniac. Addictive, but hyper dumbo. (Sien, I'm just frustrated cause I can't even reach 200k, dammit).

Cheers.

Transformers: Revenge of the fallen has got to be THE most action-packed, awesome, not to mention funny movie so far this year. The special effects and graphics were state-of-the-art. The pace and dialogue was witty, hilarious and pure genius at times (That Shia guy was mad funny). Oh yeah, and Megan Fox was in it. What more can I ask for? Although I HAVE to say that her acting-chops were comparable to that of an elementary-school drama production, her mere presence was more than enough to make up for her lack of talent. That damn camera was pushing its boundaries by taking shots that comprises many different angles/poses of her. Fudge.

Anyways, after two and a half hours of hardcore entertainment, we chilled at Balin.....again. Those taking up local uni offers will be leaving these few days. All the best and do remember to enjoy yourselves!! Spent the rest of the night ( or to be more precise, day) reminiscing about camp, "underlining ourselves"-credit goes to Miss Teo , slacking sessions as well as the naughty but fun stuff we did and bitched about during our high school days. Surprisingly, most of these "trivial happenings" are still well-remembered and that's what makes it all the more fun to talk about.

Good luck guys, do keep in touch !!!! :)

p.s: Norah Jones' voice is pure heaven.

Cheers,
Timo

Chill Pill

Here's something for those who are all stressed-up by either uni applications, relationships gone bad or in some cases-UK VISA APPLICATIONS. Dumbo/funny quotes by public figures. Hope they're effective! ( if not, just swallow a gravel and get the f**k to bed ).

1."Whenever I watch TV and I see those poor starving kids all over the world, I can't help but cry. I mean I would love to be skinny like that, but not with all those flies and death and stuff."
- Mariah Carey, Pop Singer

2."Fiction writing is great, you can make up almost anything."
- Ivana Trump, on finishing her first novel

3."City fathers were hoping to raise enough money to erect a new bronze statue of the Duck of Wellington."
- BBC commentator

4."Politics gives guys so much power that they tend to behave badly around women. And I hope I never get into that."
- Bill Clinton, former U.S. president (prior to the Lewinsky scandal)

5."Smoking kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very important part of your life."
- Brooke Shields, during an interview to become spokesperson for a federal anti-smoking campaign.

6."Hawaii is a unique state. It is a small state. It is a state that is by itself. It is a --it is different from the other 49 states. Well, all states are different, but it's got a particularly unique situation."
- Dan Quayle, former U.S. Vice President

7."It isn't pollution that is hurting the environment, it's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it."

Mass
Googled "Why can't I gain weight?" and here's what I got:

11 reasons people fail to gain mass

1. Too many simple carbs, not enough high-quality protein.

2. Weight workouts not intense enough to trigger new muscle growth.

3. Inconsistency, missing workouts.

4. Overtraining. If muscles aren't allowed to recover, they won't grow.

5. Not doing the very routines (multi-joint) that can really accelerate muscle growth, such as barbell squats, decline leg presses, dead-lifts, bench presses, dumbbell rows and other dumbbell routines. But these must be performed with heavy enough weight to bring on severe fatigue in 5-8 reps.

6. Not doing enough free-weight routines; too much focus on selective equipment. Free-weight routines force stabilizer and synergistic muscles into action; the more muscles worked per routine, the more likely new mass will result.

7. Not doing cardio. Three times a week for 30-45 minutes will do the trick, and don't go through the motions. Get the heart pumping good.

8. Doing cardio on the same days as weight-training. Doing cardio before weights will strip the body of energy needed to perform muscle-blitzing routines. Doing cardio after weights will interfere with muscle recovery. It's okay to do brief, light cardio as a warm-up and cool-down, but save the actual cardio sessions for their own days.

9. Not getting enough sleep (7-8 hours).

10. High alcohol intake.

11. Not drinking enough water.

Better make sure I start following all of them if I want to stop seeing Dorothy's Tinman staring back at me through the bathroom mirror.

Music
Obsessed. Mariah Carey's new single is hitting airwaves soon! I have no idea why I'm still a fan of this 40 year old, married, occasional (wait, most of the time actually) fat-ass...guess I'm still very much in love with that angelic voice of hers....damn.

Movies
Please come out soon, Transformers. The graphics and a Ms. Megan Fox are the main reasons I'm all pumped up to catch this one on the silverscreen.

Mouth
Hoho, I just had my stitches removed today and according to that *&^%$, my wound's fine. Sad to say, a humongous ulcer has taken over its place and it is still hurting everytime I yawn....damn damn.

Cheers,
Timo

Wisdom Tooth

Dental hospitals suck. My mouth is hurting so bad. What seemed like a normal procedure (removal of a wisdom tooth) turned out to be one of the most horrifying/traumatizing experiences of my life. Should I blame it on the scrawny she-dentist ( a newbie who looked so fragile, weak and young-looking that,at first, I was certain she did not have the strength to operate on me at all ), the brainless sloth that calls itself a dental nurse, or the lack of balls on my part?

fuck.

p.s. The ice-cream helped. Thanks, dad.

of Orchard Road and sandy beaches...

I'm back! The past week was awesome man! First, there was my Spore trip where I caught up with my sg & msia friends. Then came the weekend spent with my Hong Kong relatives. To be honest, I DO NOT like uploading photos on my blog, partly because I'm impatient ( unlike facebook, blogger's mode of uploading photos is so cumbersome and old-fashioned ) and also because I think that blogs are e-diaries where you're supposed to PEN down your thoughts and feelings i.e. you write (or to be exact, type). However, it is of utmost importance that I decorate my entry with images this time round since without them, the happening factor just isn't there anymore. Here's a few shots of the KK resort getaway as well as those of my sg trip. The rest of them are on my facebook account, so go check them out! :)Nexus Resort, Karambunei, KkKayaking + Loads of sun. Cousin Selma and I look damn pro here siaMum, Dad, and SelmaOh yeah! Kayaking was fabulous. I might even consider taking up rowing when I go over to the Uk.Haha Trust me, it's that good.
