Stupid Dream

I dreamt that an irritant (in my real life) ordered lots of furniture and got the desk that my father made and set up replaced. He spent thousands of dollars doing it, and I was damn angry cuz he didn't even ask me for permission before he proceeded with the work. Plus, how could he just replace my dad's work like that!?!??!

Then, at one turn of the head, the whole setup disappeared, and Liz was around in the room. I asked her if she knew about that irritant doing all that crap and that I swore I saw the changes... (cuz suddenly all gone) She said that he was blacklisted by several furniture shops because he'd buy a lot of them, fix up, and then take down and refund all of the furniture he bought. Hahaha.

I woke up.

And today, said irritant came to my house. >.>

I can be a psychic or a prophet already. <.<

Nightmare

Last night, I had a nightmare. D:

I’d forgotten what dream it was. This morning, Liz said she finally had better sleep than the last two nights because she was actually sleeping and not drifting in between. As for me, I told her I probably slept more than the last two days, but I had a feeling it was a bad dream.

This is totally random, but thinking about what my colleagues just said about how maybe the leak of confidential governmental documents would spark a war reminded me of my dream!

I don’t remember what the start of the dream was, but I think I was in a building. It was either my office, or my school. Now that I think about it, maybe I was in an office building with my schoolmates o_o

Whatever it was, we received news and messages about how our area had been seized by a terrorist group, and that our building was going to be demolished. Some of us were skeptical, some started to panic, and the rest were just unsure and staring at one another.

Then someone asked a critical question, “Are we able to get out?”

Someone else answered, “Oh my god. I heard that the terrorist is going to capture us—every single one of us.”

Right after that, I saw a very huge drill looking thing far outside the window. D:

The drill aimed towards our building and made a super huge hole out of our building!! The ceiling started collapsing and there was debris falling all over the place! People started to run in a panic! Some jumped out of the window, some tried to avoid the drill and all that…

This part was kinda horrifying. I remember some people shouting that there was no way they were gonna be held captive and that they heard some people managed to escape the grip of the terrorists, so they were gonna escape and scatter in all different directions. Most of us had already got out of the building and were watching others still trying to get out while the drill reduced the building to nothing ><. Then we heard that some of those who tried to run were killed, so the rest who didn’t try to run were trying to warn the ones intending to run.

Then we turned to look… One of the terrorists spotted someone trying to run and without hearing him out, just shot his head.

D:

Wow. All of the rest of us survivors of the collapsing building gathered around with the terrorists surrounding us. We still heard some gunfire and people screaming to their deaths…

Then the next thing I knew, I was in a building where everyone was held in. I don’t remember what we were doing inside, but I kinda had the idea that we couldn’t get out. I think there were still people planning to get out though.

One thought that was kinda vivid throughout the whole ordeal though, was:

“This can’t be happening to me, right? And if it IS happening…I’ll come out okay in the end…right? I won’t be that lucky guy who gets shot without a chance to explain right?”

Then I woke up realising that I forgot to turn on my handphone alarm and I was late for work. Hahahaha.

Still, food for thought though. Through my dream, I realised my first reaction to crisis is denial and senseless hoping. D: Following that is a ‘wait-and-see’ attitude. Hmmm. Interesting.

I wonder what it would be like in reality. …Not that I want it to happen. @_@

i am finally employed

after countless weeks of standby mode, i am finally employed as a temp staff. LOL.

now i know i talk in a schizophrenic mode, so just let me be. last night i dreamt of sailor moon. in the dream, usagi, amy (? sailor mercury) and the masked man were all classmates. then usagi was very sad that she didn't manage to tell the masked man to "take care". after class, usagi and i (amy) happened to pass by the masked man's shop and he appeared. i told him, "usagi wants to say take care and she wants to go on a date with you!" the masked man actually say, "sure. when?" usagi was damn happy and i left. then i dunno why i walk halfway i fainted, and usagi rushed over to help me up and drag me to my house. i think i fainted because in real life, i physically felt tired LOL. i woke up at 12+ btw.

in the midst of my sleep, Liz called me to say that today i must go to the company to fill in the application form. ok. so i went. kanin... she told me to prepare $0.50 for the woodlands transport. but when i paid $0.50, the guy stared at me and said, "it's $0.70." ok, so i got change from a stranger and paid the right amount. when i reached the company, first thing i told her was she gave me wrong info. and what did she tell me? "too long never take, i forgot. hahaha!" second thing i told her was i needed her toilet for big business. LOL.

when i went in to fill in the application, Liz told me, "there'll be an interview." i stared at her, "you said nothing about an interview." she can as-a-matter-factly tell me, "i also didn't know until just now!" erhh. so, the manager appeared and said, "i will get straight to the point. we have a lot of backlog stuff so we will hire you as a temp staff. of course if your performance is good you will get to be a permanent staff." i was debating with myself whether i should tell the truth, "i came here because of shortage manpower, so actually i also dun wanna be permanent staff LOL."

either way, he asked me to wait a moment and finally when he came back, he said, "weh. can you write neater, i give you some more paper just in case you write wrongly." what sia.

i started drawing at Liz' desk because i was too damn bored. her colleagues were saying something like, "wah lao also the same, also draw!" then another colleague said, "wah the sister come in, next time also hire the mother lah." i dunno why Liz' first reaction was to say, "wah cannot! she will start singing to herself!!" <-- it's quite freaky... i think my mom thinks she sings damn well, though her stamina is so good she's constantly changing key -.-

then finally i was brought to the HR. kns. i filled in the application form again. LOL. man. what dishonesty inside the application! hahahaha. then this was our conversation.

HR: your handwriting very small leh, like ant writing.
Me: izzit?
HR: you should write bigger.
Me: erh... i used to write quite big letters, but they were very ugly.
HR: izzit? but your words are so small! very difficult to read.
Me: hahaha...

HR: you look quite sweet.
Me: erh...? ok lah.
HR: why ah? you look quite pretty wat, why you wear until so boyish?
Me: (...pretty and me have never been paired together) i like mah.
HR: you always wear like this is it?
Me: yah.
HR: were you trained to dress like this?
Me: erh... my mom said i was born like this.
HR: oh really? do you ever wear skirts?
Me: don't like to wear.
HR: why not?
Me: i find it impractical.
HR: hmm... at office ok lah, but when go out for shopping, you should wear something nicer yeah?
Me: hahaha...

i'm not lying when i say i was born like this. i used to wear cerisi clothes. mom tried to get me to tuck in the clothes because my clothes were half tucked in and half spilling everywhere. i had the audacity to say,"MAMMY! it's OK! never mind one! nobody will see anyway!" ...right. have i also mentioned that i screamed at kopitiam uncles to hurry up with the kopi-o and i tended NOT to change clothes before going out? hahhh. (i was pretty disgusting. still am. LOL.)

then ok, my application was complete and i could leave. so i left.

i got up the woodlands transport and this time, i dropped $0.70 instead. what an achievement! but the bus driver still stared at me.

Driver: it's $0.90.
Me: ??? isn't it $0.70...
Driver: this bus goes to Tanah Merah, miss.
Me: *stare blank* i have no money left...
Driver: ahhh never mind never mind.
Me: orh... thanks...
*stare blank* *calls Liz*
Me: WEH! you never say got two transport??
Liz: oops! i forgot to tell you again. too long never take. hahaha!

idiot. to think i was basking happily in the idea that i finally paid the right fee. now my crime worsens as i shortchange the driver by $0.20. kanin...

i must say this. do not be cheated by what the HR person said. i am NOT pretty. for evidence, refer to the flute blog. i'm just a weird bugger.

i am finally employed leh. i accidentally said too loud in the office, "woohoo!! i can finally save up enough to buy a psp for you, HUISANN!" i dunno whether the colleague beside us was laughing about what i said, or about someone else saying they should hire our mom too.

btw, i have never and never will spell or even pronounce Liz' name correctly. i am too used to mixing her chinese and cantonese name together. hahhh. wah lao she labelled her correction tape as "bird lizard". punning her own name, wah liao. i think my parents have no talent in naming their children.

so guys??? rejoice. i am finally not a slacker, for at least until end of next feb. hahhhh!

i dreamt of xiaozhu

i have begun the impossible task of scanning all my old sketches so that i can discard the hard copy. and picasa is being an arse by not having the option to scan multiple images before i import all images. what a tedious process. so i shall try with photoshop cs2 now.

first off, i think i dreamt of xiaozhu cuz i was reading em's quiz answers, and one of them was "listening to 罗志祥 (xiaozhu) songs". second, when i described the dream to my mother, she asked me twice whether i was talking about my dream or an existing drama. LOL.

it was the story of a 13yr old girl who has the ability to transform into 21yrs old. i was in her perspective, but let's call her LinLin (lol... no name one actually).

so, it happens so that she is neighbours with xiaozhu and his brother. not sure what happened, but the setting was that xiaozhu's girlfriend was either sick, missing or just temporarily MIA, but LinLin somehow got the chance to get closer to xiaozhu (it wasn't her intention actually). she didn't know why xiaozhu was quite nice to her, but it came to a stage they started holding hands. there was this cheesy cut scene with LinLin feeling very happy with xiaozhu holding her hand and running somewhere outside a shopping mall i think LOL.

but there was always this looming fear that xiaozhu would one day figure out that she is not his girlfriend, she is actually only 13yrs old and that one day xiaozhu would eventually dump her. (sad hor, like drama litat). i'm not very sure why xiaozhu didn't seem to know she was not his girlfriend... dunno is it because look alike or what? (i think that was the case)

i think LinLin got so overwhelmed she started to emo haha! somehow xiaozhu's brother (let's call him ... xiaomao HAHA) knew LinLin. (i dunno why xiaozhu dunno. loophole.) then 13yr old LinLin was one day at the corridor and xiaomao saw her. she went to ask him, "do i look good today?" despite feeling very strongly that she would be dumped, she was still concerned if she looked good... o.o then xiaozhu appeared around the corner and she quickly ran away. that's when xiaomao figured out that she was the 21yr old LinLin and that she really liked xiaozhu.

so xiaomao went after LinLin and brought her to a cafeteria to find out more about the whole situation. LinLin started to pour out her concerns and all that and erh...xiaomao actually started to like her o.O

suddenly, there was this sudden news that LinLin's dog went missing (yah she reared a dog) and she panicked. she turned into her 21yr old self (i dunno why) and started to go around looking for her dog. she couldn't find it and was damn worried sick when suddenly a person asked her and xiaomao to go to a certain location. it turns out that xiaozhu had sent people to go search for the dog. suddenly xiaozhu eyed the both of them suspiciously and LinLin got quite worried. he said, "LinLin, there's something on your face..." suddenly xiaomao turned around to check and help LinLin wipe away. LinLin quickly backed away.. then xiaozhu walked off.

LinLin asked xiaomao, "do you think he suspects we are an item?" xiaomao then finally realised that. he said, "i think so.." then LinLin made up her mind that she wanted to tell xiaozhu. (长痛不如短痛！)

as she prepared herself to tell him, she began to recall the happy times... LOL cheesy man! one particular memory was xiaozhu carrying her in his arms out of the shopping mall, but i'm not sure what that particular memory was about. i think he also brought her to shop for nice clothes or what.

dunno which day, she knocked on xiaozhu's door. at this time of the story, revelation..suddenly she is actually 21yrs old, and no longer that transforming shoujo (teenage girl) idiot!!! hahaha. she asked xiaozhu whether he has a bit of time to talk, and he seemed to be already aware that she would come and look for him. strangely though, he relaxingly and smilingly told her ok. o.O

they went to some open space, and she said a few things which i can't remember what. suddenly xiaozhu said, "you're a weird girl man. most people beat around the bush before they talk about the main topic... but you jump right at it and that's way unattractive. let me teach you how to be more attractive." (????) magically a sofa appeared and he told LinLin that she must lay on top of it, look somewhere else and say the topics. LOL no link.

anyway, i think eventually she told the truth, that she is not his girlfriend, but she really liked him or something.

guess what.

anti-climax... i WOKE UP! hahaha. because why? very disgusting. i didn't bathe last night so i felt icky and had to get up to bathe. LOLOLOL.

but i have a slight impression that actually xiaozhu already found out that she was originally 13yrs old but was now somehow 21yrs old, and he seemed to have registered that she is not his girlfriend. if i'm not wrong, the real girlfriend either really went missing, ditched him or he developed enough feelings for LinLin to stop bothering about the ex-girlfriend. whatever lah, it was an open-ended ending.

i hope they got together though. LinLin in the dream is actually sweet. if i'm not wrong she did confess that her wish is to be Alan Luo's wife LOL.

k, that's it for the fully scripted dream. hahaha.

of dreams and games

Dreams

ok, lemme talk about dream first. i got a new dream two nights ago.

i dreamt that i was going cycling with liz. dunno why we visited a super small house. when we got out however we were at somewhere like a community centre. suddenly i saw Junwen (from band, 87 batch)!?!? then they were gathering to play soccer. liz disappeared at this point and i went to join the crowd of some 20+ people. okkk i saw a random mix of people from my pri school, sec school and poly!?

after that we were lining up to form teams and when i looked at my own team, i was like thinking, "shit leh, confirm die! all the nerds in my team woh!!" suddenly, someone shouted, "on the count of 3, line up in 4 rows!!" when i turned to look, suddenly the room was filled with 60 over people omg?? (all from my previous schools) and they started wandering around lining up?? i saw huizhen and lihong in my team and we were staring blank at one another hahaha! i was seriously wondering how to play soccer with so many people trampling all over the grass =_=

suddenly, Mrs. Chua entered the scene, held her hand up...and an amazing thing happened.

she started conducting the band music Mononoke Hime and we started humming to the score. oh wah lao wtf.

i was wondering how the hell the non band members are gonna play along man. suddenly i saw maisarah on the left still wearing hsc uniform. i was thinking, "eh? why she wearing that? she now in sg? she need go back london anot??"

and i was half-consciously waiting for the soccer game to play. in the end midway through the dream i bth i woke up go toilet. wait for soccer game wait until forget it lah!! lame sia!

before i forget. this morning i woke up because mom called me on my hp to wake me up (she was in her own room). oh my gawd i was damn shell shocked when i couldn't reach for the phone because my left hand was so numb my fingers were barely moving. i was literally talking to my arm/hand and telling it to start moving hahahaha. cheers to bad sleeping posture -.-|||

Games

a bit more about games. k yesterday i was arranging my discs and accidentally came across Chrono Trigger. i had no idea i had the game. and well!! i was really damn curious about it. firstly, i played Chrono Cross and i'm a CC fanatic (it was rated 10.0 at gamespot). secondly, the story in CC took references from CT but i had no idea what was CT all about. thirdly, the artwork is by Toriyama Akira (artist for Dragon Ball)!!!

so, i was looking for a memory card to play the game with. i have a 120 block memory card and i tried to flip pages. then i realise that the damned memory card cannot flip memory pages on ps2. kanin...anyway just a bit of lamity. i was looking for my memory card and asked aloud, "ehh?? where's my memory card???" and liz suddenly said, "why you give me this?" with the memory card in her hand. erhhh. and i tried to use the controller without plugging in to the ps2. ok something's seriously wrong with me.

so, i loaded CT, expecting something like CC. but when i loaded the game, first, i saw what i mistakenly thought was Dragon Ball games opening scenes. wah lao. even the sound is from DBZ lah!! then, i saw the logo for CT. kanin... winword word warp or word art is it??? hahaha! see-eh scary. then i loaded the game.

Oh God. Nintendo days.

then i realised that i was expecting too much. chrono cross was launched somewhere in 97-99 and that was when Squaresoft's graphics started to go into 3D. before that, it was all Nintendo style. so how the heck did i expect it to look 3D, i have no idea man.

i was getting the feeling that i was gonna detest playing the game. but i realise...actually i find the game quite fun (and funny). hahahaha. i'm just disappointed that once again it's another silent protagonist. i am looking forward to cutscenes... maybe got more dragon ball things! :DDD

yamada taroooo!

oh!! i finally remembered what i wanted to blog about. last night i had a pretty ridiculous dream. i am currently watching yamada taro monogatari 贫穷贵公子 drama. last night i watched epi 9. so, i dream about it.

i dreamt that Nagahara was going to a research plantation or what by train. yamada was still thinking whether or not to go for college, and thus followed Nagahara behind. Nagahara booked his seat in the special class while Yamada didn't. so he was rejected, but was directed to a third class cabin where he had to pay a plastic bag (literally -_-) to get a seat inside. and the weird thing is Ikegami was behind (i was in her perspective) following Yamada. and when Ikegami got in the same cabin as Yamada, she couldn't find him. she sat down somewhere, but a staff member noticed that she looked lost, and thus offered to help her. in the end she did find Yamada but realised she didn't know what to say about why she was there as well. in the end in odd defence she said, "i was just wondering why you're going comic land too!! hahaha..."

erh. anyway i don't know which part of the dream, i dreamt that i was with my sec school ex-classmates and we were marching around a hawker centre buying food. oh my gawd. i was cheated. i paid $5 to eat a less than 2cm x 2cm x 3mm big piece of fish meat that was filled with bones. oh God. even in my dream i felt hungry. i had so much difficulty eating the damned fish. then we started to march around again and there were four sand bag mochis following behind me. then i realised that some were inflicted with poison, some with mini status and some with...i can't remember. i started to "equip" them with Bloat status, curing silence, curing poison and equippin lots of weight into each mochi. wtf. i suspect it's a combination of final fantasy, dj max classquai (the dumb seedlings jumping around everywhere) and xenogears. wah lao.

ok, i am so looking forward to my next dream. because my dreams never make sense, i almost always have something to blog about them.
