| I hope everyone will have a lovely valentine's....that includes myself of course. Meanwhile, I accidentally found this radiohead cd The Bends(1995) in my car, and ever since, this's been my favorite album. So whoever put this cd in my car, thank you!!! Here is one of my favorite song in the album, Fake Plastic Trees: (Must click play) | | |
| In Singapore now, Last couple days in Malaysia was nothing really but one achievement to me: 3:00am, Dec 22nd - Present..... Its been almost 3 days since i last touched a cigarette...... Hopefully that record will hold till 26th 10pm.
though, there was this instant when we got a bathroom break off the roadtrip from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore. It was an instant for a test of my will-power. I saw a line of DL (stands for Dai Look, aka Chinese mainlander) tourist burning packs after packs outside the public rooms.......... I was seriously tempted to bump one off one of those chinamen........ the only thing holding me back was their awfully strong disgusting DL body odor...... shit man, couldnt even get within 10 ft radius near them. Call me a racist, but Speed Stick should introduce their awesome products such as Speed Stick Clear Solid Musk* (my all time deodorant since 10th grade, actually naw, i was using old spice red zone back then, but Musk for quite some time now) to our dearest DL fellas.
