Will we always be able to have the compass to search for them?

つかみかけた夢のかけらカワラナイモノ
追ってる僕らは憧れ大空に浮かべて
疲れ果てた時の中でもカワラナイモノ
探すコンパスねぇいつまでも持っていれるかな

Tsukamikaketa yume no kakera kawaranai mono
Otteru bokura wa akogare oozora ni ukabete
Tsukare hateta toki no naka de mo kawaranai mono
Sagasu COMPASS nee itsumademo motte-ireru kana

The fragments of an almost-grasped dream are something unchanging
We chase after our aspirations, floating in the sky
Even when we're exhausted, it's something unchanging
Will we always be able to have the compass to search for them?



Although this blog post is dated on 24 December, if you come on yesterday, you wouldn't be able to find this blog post at all, only able to find it after the 25th. That's because I was feeling really, really lazy yesterday, and procrastinated blogging from 3pm to 5pm to 7pm and finally to 9pm, and finally thinking, "...What the hell, I need to go to sleep now; I have work tomorrow." And ended up not doing anything in regards to my blogging for the entire day. ^_^"

So now (it's 25 December now, by the way, Merry Christmas ^_^), I end up having to type two posts, one for yesterday while the other for today. XD Oh well. I'll type about what happened today in this blog post as well, since I'm leaving the 25 December blog post for a little "season greeting". ;D



Work yesterday (24 December :O) was as boring as usual, though breakfast on that day was one of the largest breakfasts ever. Sat with Hong Wei, Sin Wei, Jing Hui, De Ding, Adrian and the second uncle, over two tables, haha. Seven people all eating together, haha.

Because it was Christmas Eve, work ended early, on 12pm, yay. ^_^ The boss was telling everyone, "There's no bus bringing you to Tampines MRT Station after work today, I didn't arrange for one; so you have to go home yourself. If you want to wait, however, there are still the everyday buses at 3pm and 6pm." Hearing this, Sin Wei, Jing Hui, Ming Yuen and I, all of whom are standing in one group, laughed particularly loud, hehheh, and everyone stared at us. XD

And I made a joke to Sin Wei, Jing Hui and Ming Yuen (since they are all just next to me), "Steady, who wants to wait with me until 3pm? :P" Sin Wei replied, "You wait yourself." -.-

Then, the boss gave us Christmas presents. Three sweets and a bar of soap.

I got my father to come and fetch me at 12pm, hehheh. Asked Jing Hui (who was the only one accompanying me out of the factory, as the rest all have no lives and are doing sub -.-) whether he wants to hop onto my father's car and let my father take him home, haha, but he didn't want to. Wow, I'm noticing that Jing Hui is really similar with Yong Jin, and it's not just the appearances (Jing Hui practically looks like a Yong Jin without wearing spectacles, haha), lol. Both of them are kind of quiet, silent, and a bit humble as well, yeah. Haha.



Spent one whole day yesterday playing Soul Calibur III. It's about time I start touching that game, haha. Have been leaving it in the cupboard for weeks since after Vernon bought it for me, due to lack of time (stupid work) to play it.

I like to use Kilik, haha. After seeing Andy playing Kilik on the arcade last time, I sort of want to use that character too then, lol. Kilik is a Chinese, same as me, he has beautiful gun skills, he has pwnage quotes ("Listen! My soul rages with strength!"), why else would I not want to use him? XD



I've got myself a "secondary character" to use when I felt bored with Kilik (:P) as well, haha. Seong Mi-na... She's cute!! She has a cute voice as well, and her style resembles Kilik's. Well, since they were both trained by the same master (Edge Master), and thus both used the Ling-Sheng Su Style Rod. I don't know why she doesn't look so good in the artwork though...



The Chronicles of the Sword mini-game is rather difficult to play though. Like, you are given Level 4 characters and have to defeat Level 20 enemies? =.=



Lmao. I felt very sleepy this morning before work, and was rather reluctant to wake up, so my mother had to come and try wake me up. I didn't know why, but in my sleep talk, I told my mother, "Sonna ni mita kerya, misete yaru yo. Matase tana, ossan. Koitsu ga ore no Bankai daze!" Yes, in Japanese. o.O The funnier part is that I remembered that, as if I was consciously talking. O.o Lmao. I heard my mother commenting that I've went mad watching anime. ^_^"

By the way, the sentence means "If you wanna see it that badly, I guess I'll show you. The wait's over, old man. This is my Bankai.", and was told by Ichigo to Dordonii in Bleach when Ichigo finally uses Bankai after Dordonii repetitively hits Ichigo, taunting him to use Bankai. XD It is in Episode 152 and chapter 252 in the anime and manga respectively if I'm not wrong. Rather coincidental, those numbers, huh? XD



Today's work, well, same old, same old.

Took a leave for class chalet next week. They better approve it. Fast. Immediately. Now. Dattebayo.

I rather pity my line leader. Every time I encounter a task assigned to me that I couldn't do and/or lack the knowledge to do it well, I would ask Ming Yuen if he can do it for me instead. He always reply, "Ok, no problem!" and does it, and then, whenever my line leader sees Ming Yuen doing my work, she would come and scold us both. -.-

And why would I pity her? Because she's an anti-social. Because she has no friends she can rely on. Because she doesn't know what the heck "teamwork" means. Because she does not know that everyone has things that they can and can't do. Because she does not know that your friends can do what you can't do and that you can do what your friends can't do.

I'm theorizing that when she was a kid, child and teenager, she was a lonely little anti-social who had no friends. Thus, she had to do everything herself, by herself, and there was no one anywhere around her whatsoever who could help her in any way, shape or form. She started to grow hatred inside her for her loneliness, and wanted everyone to suffer the same loneliness as her.

Or maybe I'm having a way too creative imagination.

I left the factory for home at 11pm (since today is a public holiday, it's a half-day OT at work. $10 per hour, whoohooo) with people who are not doing sub today, namely Hong Wei, Sin Wei, De Ding and Jing Hui (who is walking rather fast, walking in front of the four of us, as if he's at a rush or something, haha). My father came to fetch me home, and we "conveniently" brought Hong Wei home as well, haha. It was squeezy in that lorry (since I cycled to work this morning, my father had to come in his lorry. My bicycle and his car, well, the two of them don't mix. Just like fire and water.), the three of us. =.=

We went past Temasek Polytechnic, and I was all pointing at it. XD This is revenge for all those times my father pointed at Tampines Junior College (he wants me to study there next year ) whenever we drive past it. =.=
