Dwelling apart from the pianist... where probably i would end on a cliffhanger... i'm moving onto another inspiration.. LOL!!!!

but that probability is only a probability.. =P


The sky was just so warming... he and she were walking along the beach as they both held hands... The moment was just so perfect... then the setting came... her fantasized purple sky has come!!! lasting only a min or so everyday... She was exalted upon the sight of the sky and the setting with her loved one! HIM... it was all so perfect as they were to kiss at that instant till he woke UP AFTER kissing her!

"Sighs... it was just simply a dream..." so as he thought. Climbing out of bed on a lazy tuesday morning was simply pure torture... But he lightened up upon the thought of meeting her along the bus....Brushing his teeth, styling his hair, wearing his clothes, packing his bag, he got all prepared for school! Then, he went over to the bus stop anticipating her arrival... Suddenly, a thought struck him as he remembered this important fact... SHE, lives at cross street...and takes her dad's car to school... So, there is ZERO chance of meeting her... ARGH!!! he almost banged onto the lamp post again upon realizing that fact....

SHE was typically someone he had met just the day before... admiring her smile, her charm and her bubbliness.. Typically, he was just so happy from the moment she spoke to him... His feet literally flew off the ground and clapped themselves against each other.. He had been noticing her around school for quite some time now... But, he never had the courage to go up and ask for her number, etc. all the usual stupid things that boys do to attract girls.... However, never did he expect that the unthinkable would happen... Now, the admiration that he had for her in the past has now become a crush...

She was just another a girl around school, nothing exceptional except for her composure and style which was outstanding... However, she's still a quiet girl overall... and never really stood out nor recieved much attention... Nevertheless, he still noticed her nevertheless and being the simple guy that he is, just laid there, having no courage to do anything at all....

Fast forward a few months... till today where it may start all over again today... A piano session with her at school!! He was helping her to rehearse and brainstorm some ideas for an upcoming National competition where participants have to play out a chosen tune or a self composed tune... Being out of inspiration, she asked him for some sources of tunes as he was someone who was dynamic... what she wanted was something out of the blue, something exciting, something that is even more cheerful than pachebel's Canon In D, and that would be an original creation....

Meeting up with her was truly a moment in paradise for him as they both discussed her ideas, then his thoughts, followed by his ideas... as both people play the piano, their exchange session was absolutely delighting and fun... Hours passed as time flew past without a flash as it soon reached sunset... the two then ended their exchange session within the music room as they had many new ideas for the tunes she could compose for the competition... He then brought her for dinner before sending her home as they arranged to meet up again the next day as the school was closed for the holidays...

He was totally estatic about the new possibilities of the relationship that could happen between him and his dream girl... Bring expressive, he then typed in an entry about her in his blog and then changing his msn name to give a hint to his friends that a new love has indeed come out! Many were shocked and were confused over the sudden "hyperness" that he has now....

A few days had passed as they analyzed and studied more tunes and melodies that they could come out with before finally finishing the entire period together with musical notes for her songs... it was truly a piece of heaven for him as they both got closer and closer... Evening dinners, mealtime laughs, Nightwalks home with her became a routine for him as he felt he had now stood a chance in winning her heart... Devoting all his time for her... he truly believed that she would be the one for him....

Those days passed before she even knew it and the piano competition was here! He had personally given his irreplaceable lucky charm as a sign of support for her as he too, attended her competition performance along with her parents...

The whole crowd became silent and stunned by the graceful and cheerful melodies and tunes that she had churned out as she played on her specially selected glass-made grand piano... It totally took the whole audience's mind away and mesmerized them as they sat back and got mentally transported into another area of tranquility and peace together with emotions of excitement and youth in play... Never had an audience nor a panel of judges been so impressed and elated at a performer's custom piece before... Needless to say, She had won the entire competition and even had created headlines with her perfect score at the national competition where even the judges were well known for their typical Singaporean characteristic of their stinginess in terms of giving marks for judgement...

She was so happy and jumped with tears of joy in her eyes... He too, was happy for her as well and shared the same sentiments with her as her parents hugged each other for the success of their daughter..... The entire concert hall was left with elaborate applauses set aside for her as even her competitors were also left in awe of her creativity and skill levels in terms of her musical talent...

To have a personal thank you celebration dinner.. she had offered to buy him a meal at his favourite restaurant.. They had met up before their dinner and had a short walk along the beach... Talking about all of the past times together and the amount of fun that they had together, he suddenly held her hand.... stunned but still smiling, she nodded her head as she blushed on his sudden act of affection... Then, the occurrence of a purple sky came... He knew she loved the purple sky even though she never mentioned it... and they were totally blown away together amidst the calm sea breeze... everything was so perfect at that moment... everything seemed so real... They were truly happy at that moment...

Suddenly, everything flashed back and the guy had a deja vu that he had experienced this! She then smiled back in agreement as she had dreamt of this scene before... Then, their lips began to close up to each other... They knew that they had fallen in love with each other... As they were about to kiss, SUDDENLY...............................................................................................................................................................................

Well, seeing that i have been slicing like hundreds and hundreds of pieces of mini salmon slices, i thought i shall put up a recipe based on my fave fish that i had done in the past!! LOL!!!!

I call this dish.... Pan roasted salmon, MaRkIe`-s style...!!!

Firstly, its a dish which includes some heat in it which literally means, chillies... However, even though i can't take spicy stuff.. I TOTALLY LOVE IT!!! well, there are three parts to this dish where i would use rice as a side dish... =P

Firstly, i shall start with the 1st part...

THE TOMATOES!!!

Firstly, you would need
2 chopped tomatoes,
2 small diced onions,
some amount of parsley, chopped,
McCormick red pepper flakes, you can use other brands if you wanna... i like mccormick.. =P
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
and some
Salt and pepper for seasoning

secondly, for the salmon, you need
1 cup aged sherry vinegar
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoons ancho chile powder
Salt and pepper
olive oil
and 4 medium/medium small steaks of salmon

lastly, the KAN TANG...
1 stick butter
some potatoes which are boiled and then halved
chopped parsley
Salt and freshly ground pepper for seasonin...

For tomato: Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and set aside for ard 30 minutes.....

For the Salmon: In a small saucepan over high heat, reduce the sherry vinegar to 1/4 cup for the richer flavour.... In a mixing bowl, combine the vinegar syrup with the mustard, honey and ancho chile powder and season with salt and pepper. set aside for 30 minutes to let salmon absorb flavour... you can go read the story in my blog in the meantime.. LOL!!! Heat the tablespoon of oil in a pan until almost smoking. Brush the salmon on both sides with the glaze of the mustard, etc.... Place in the pan and cook until lightly golden brown... LIGHTLY BROWN!!!! Place in the oven and continue cooking for 5 to 6 minutes for medium doneness or lesser time or more time if you wan it to be more done, less done, raw, etc.. Remove from the oven... brush again with the glaze.

For the Potatoes: Melt the butter over medium heat in a large saute pan. Add the potatoes and toss to coat with the butter, cook 5 minutes. Add the parsley and season with salt and pepper.. you can skip this rice if you cook flavoured rice like pineapple rice... or sth like that..


So sad... no pics... =P

YES!!! I have finally obtained my V3I!!!!

Well, yesterday was quite a fun day.. LOL! was supposed to meet up with the guys at 1pm... but guess we all overslept then we met at 4 instead... Next up, we went to city hall as nutz were to be there slightly later... went over back to carlton as don went to collect his cash.. then we moved onto suntec to find the damned M1 shop and for boon and co. to get their nike soccer competition form... Oh yes!! we met Richard at Topman... not much changes there! and yang spotted Nicholas Neo with his GF!! LOL!!!! so many ppl were at town sia!!

Then we decided to have a round of Counterstrike at Marina Square where we totally had so much fun la! haha.. it's such a classic game for gamers regardless of age, sex, race and religion... =P

We actually played till they reached City halll mrt station le and we rushed off to find the guys but then Boon told me that he had spotted an M1 shop!!! argh... Thus, we met Nutz at Petals instead... where Big head was going to cook for us on that night... That is when i finally purchased my V3I!!! yup... got it, traded it in then its rushing off to the treasury building for Petals!!

Well, got into the place... was rather dark though... Petals is a training restaurant and kitchen for the ones who dunno.. sth similar to RITS but its officially open for business to the public. Being situated at the City area, it does have a better location factor of a stronger market presence compared to RITS which is housed in Sentosa. Well, got sat down with Boon, yang and Donovan at our own table as the other table NUTZ is seating on was already at its max capacity...

We got our orders taken and i think our table of 4 gobbled down i think at least 2 or 3 loaves of bread?? LOL!!! Boon and Yang really requested for lots of rounds of bread!! i think like around 5 or 6?!?!?!

Ok.. here comes the 1st course!!!

The appetizer which includes a salad atthe bottom followed by some roasted or grilled aubergine on top followed by some egg with bacon sausage and finally, A JUMBO PRAWN!!!! It has a light flavour but not very extraordinary... 3/5 Forks...



Next up would be the katchang puteh cream soup!!! hey.. this soup is seriously not bad... its has an unique texture and taste to it and it really matches well with the bread!!! =D I just like soups that go well with bread... =P 3.5/5 Forks...



Moving on, We have the main course of the day... which is Beef!!!! haha.. Its really a thick block of beef which is a plus point but there are a few negative points...




Firstly, the Beef was a bit cold... Not really the best though... Next, the doneness i had ordered for was medium rare... But the final one which they gave me was more in the middle of a rare to medium rare category... well, that's ok but there were a lot of ligaments around the beef steak that i was having... Hmmmm... But the sauce was quite nice to go around with the beef... so.. it's generally an ok dish... 2.5/5 Forks




Lastly, we had the Dessert which is an Ice cream cake.... It has a generally nice presentation but i was rather bothered by the sugar icing as were the rest of us... But overall, the chocolate had a nice bitter taste that a chocolate should have... 3.5/5 stars....




Oh yes./. Thanks Josefyn for the pics... i forgot to take the pictures of the 1st dish.. so.. LOL!!!

Well, after that we played around a bit... Don wanted to know a gal.. was it you donovan? LOL!! that looked like Qizhen's ex... was it?? LOL!! I never really noticed but yeah... Then we went to like give hints that Don wants your no. etc. and had a short chat... Turns out that she is gg to be 18 this yr... DON!!! YOUR TYPE~!!! LOL!! She had picked htm to be her choice of course as she was really interested in the industry.. but we all know what turned out... dun worry!! shatec is also a really good choice... Never went to get her number cause well, i dun do those stuff.. and its Don who wanted her number right?!?!? LOL!!!


had some fun afterwards before returning home and trying to gain some new inspirations for chapter 2 of the story which i wrote.. which i had titled... The PIANIST =D Will Blog more about it when i have the inspiration... ;)

Well, promised that i would write a story!! well, here it is!!!!



2 years has passed since the mourning of Chloe, a girl, a sister, an irreplaceable friend. Noone really knew what went on in her head as she plunged herself into a period of extreme depression as she consumed excessive amounts of Aneroxin that ended her life, her story. Being an exceptional pianist, she could create beautiful tunes out of the blue that would bring on the smiles and the tears with the melodies she churns out. Hitting the newspaper headlines of being the youngest to ever attain the Grade 8 standard, the country started to believe in her music and eventually for her to become a world class musician.

Life for Chloe was truly a perfect child's dream with loving parents, a big house and her very own grand piano made of glass. Growing up was extremely fun for a little girl with her carefree and bubbly personality. Piano was literally her passion, her life, her soul. At 8, she had even wrote a piece for her parent's 10th wedding anniversary which throughly touched her parents hearts.

Life for her was truly a blessing even as she had reached the stressful stages of school life. However, suddenly, she had started to fade away from her bubbly personality slowly, but surely. From the happy faces and constant uplifting tunes that she had churned out for musicians and for her own musical compilation, she had dropped to new lows with dejected emotions and melancholic tunes. This happened exactly 3 months before she had popped in her first round of aneroxin.

Noone knew the exact reason for the sudden depression that she has but one theory has been discussed among our circle of friends who were not only shocked at her passing on, but were also grieved by a lot of a beautiful friend who had a heart of gold.

It was the International music festival which was held in Oslo, Norway, where she participated in the bi-annual Platinum "tau geh" competition where composers churn out tunes that they have created in a display of creativity and originality. Chloe had churned out the best of tunes in the first few rounds with her uplifting tunes which had imprinted smiles on the faces of so many people. Support for her was also strong as friends and family went all the way there to show our support. But one thing noticed was that she cried everytime after her performance. Even though she had still displayed her cheerful personality and acted as if nothing had happened, i could definitely sense some grief and moments of pain in her.

Concerned as a buddy, I took the liberty of bringing her around Oslo with my handy dandy "Norway for Idiots" travel guide as a group along with our other friends who came in support of her. We went to "input Norway's most fun places here" and had a blast of a time where we played and dined hard. It was from then on that i truly sensed that she was truly happy.

However, the moments of happiness lasted only for a while as she had suddenly played more melancholic and sad tunes which had brought down her standing by a bit as the judges were rather appauled at her sudden change of playing style and mood. One could definitely sense grief and despair amidst the notes that she was playing. However, as hard as we tried, including her family, Chloe chose to remain silent and indifferent towards her recent change of personality. Suddenly, it was as if she changed into totally another person.

The finals were here and we were lost on how to lift her spirits up. It was as if there was no more hope as she played the same melacholic tunes that had sank most of her supporter's hearts. Despaired, broken, it was as if something had struck her or even spiritually possessed her. It was no surprise when the results came out. She had lost her 1st place and plunged down to 3rd place. Upon announcing the results, she still remained indifferent and now, even emotionless. Standing at a corner and not wanting to be disturbed, little to no words were exchanged on the long way home.

Back home, absentism during lessons, not picking up phone calls, locking herself up in her room, traces that she had really been suffering from depression was now evident. It was a short time before she had ended all of the pain she had suddenly picked up with her overdose of Aneroxin. Many were appauled and frightened about how and why she had actually died. The always smiling, cheerful girl that we all had known as Chloe is now gone forever. Many grieved and broke down during her funeral as many were strongly attached to her emotionally. Friendships and sisterhood formed now had a big gaping hole in them. The whole school mourned at her passing on with many still bearing tears and sadness from her sudden and shocking departure. Memories and momentos were put together in a board and put on her coffin as we paid our last respects to Chloe in a Catholic Church then finally, at Choa Chu Kang cemetary.

I had made a few visits to her tomb to have a small talk on the things that we had done, what are the latest happenings in school, etc. However, i had always felt miserable since her loss. Not having the big appetites that i used to had, not throwing in the lame jokes which would humour the class with huge bursts of laughter and even playing the same level of basketball which was my passion as I, too had broken down at her loss.

A fortnight has passed since her mourning and the teacher assigned me to clear her locker and send back her possessions back to her parents. A feeling of sadness and a desire to cry came again as i opened her locker and packed her possessions onto a box.

However, i got the massive shock of my life as i opened it. Never would i believe the reason that she would plunge into such depression would be due to...................................................................................................................................................................................

Well well, it seems as if its the end of the exams today but there is still one more lame paper yet to be taken... well, basically, what i have done these few days is to attentively attempt to log into blogspot but CANT!!! dammit!!! i think its got to do with my cookies or sth like that... -_-###

anywho, in a short summary, i have screwed my paper... dammit lor!!! yeah.. tho i got a lot of useful facts down and i have taken the stupid damned liberty to rewrite the whole damn notes!!!! yes, no mistake... REWRITE!!!! and that includes all of the lectures and all of the subjects!!! damn!!! i think i am just a little too stupid in my case... But oh well, shucks... i have just discovered another weakness... well, 2 actually of mine when i go for exams.. Firstly, i love to daydream in the middle of the exam especially when i am thinking hard or remembering a detail in the examination... This really sux especially if you have not enough time to even stop!!!! Anywho, the 2nd weakness i have discovered which is really shocking is with my writing speed... I JUST CANNOT WRITE FASTER!!!! -___-### oh well, what's over is over and i really hope and pray that i can get decent results this time round for the examinations.... really need a serious good luck charm....

It'll be now i suppose, that i will conclude that having great coursework marks is really nothing... cause if you screw up in the exams... you'd die the same... well, my coursework marks aint that fantastic but its at least rather decent... But i always do this stupid thing... screw up at the main examinations with my faults and weaknesses as mentioned above... But at least basically, You would be aware that in school life, hard work is always what counts. But there is a contradictary statement to this... if what i had said about hard work and school life is true, then we all know that we work hard in school just to get a good position in the future so that we would not have to "work" so hard right..? But in the real corporate working world, its creativity, bootlicking (for some people), talent and luck which mainly enables people to succeed.. Well, i know i am contradicting myself but la la la la....



JOBS.....

Have been working at Iggy's for the past few days and stuff and i am really really drained with all the schedules and stuff that constantly just keeps coming and coming... but well, i do all of these just to LIVE in a way... working to support yourself aint easy and stuff but i have to do it to learn how to be independant....

Dad and mom have been arguing over an issue recently, which is money.... Well, ever since i lat wrote the composition of a title named, My family, where every primary school kid, or mostly, would write proudly of what their parents do and what line they are in, i have a rather unique case of not even knowing what line my parents does... In the past, as a kid.... i had the mischevious concept and behaviour of putting my *Cute face* in front of them and try to force out some tears out just to stop them from fighting... But now, since i have grown so much, i cant use that tactic anymore.. and whenever i try to stop them from fighting, it gets worse... there was this instant when my mum actually tried to kill herself over a quarrel over money as well... Well, i knew my mum would not be so stupid to kill herself and that she was acting but hey... you know thre situation was really serious then and you really had to convince the person constantly shouting, who was my dad to STFU and start consoling her... things worked out well and everything was at peace... well, for that short period of time when a few months later, everything started again, things were thrown, etc. Living a life like this for a few years well, technically 14 years probably? since i've stopped them from quarrelling? It aint really easy to do such things and to "constantly innovate" new ideas to stop the argument and for them to patch up.

I still remembered the period of time when my mum was still having my baby brother, that it was a Golden period of peace where mum and dad were so loving and stuff... 9 years since then, after my brother has been born, things are getting a little serious now.... Well, all i know from my dad is that my mum constantly gets cheated or wadeva and that she slacks everyday and only cares about her karaoke and stuff... No income from her... she does not work... but my mum like kinda has this office or sth... maybe she is a property agent or an insurance agent or a freelancer or sth... anywho,

My mum's comments about my dad... Constantly plays mahjong... drinking or wadeva shit.... does not care about the family, etc. always thinks he is right, and all the badmouthing comments you can imagine... Sad to say but its really depressing to see two people who loved each other so much turn into like that.. maybe the love just is not there anymore but i really cannot stop thinking about it...

Personally, everytime they argue over money.. it really gets so irritating and annoying that i do not care anymore... started to lock myself up in the room, or go out of the house to chill out... cause the efforts that i had put in was really not enough anymore... Its really sad though.. i really hope they just dun quarrel till a divorce case arises, i would never stand for it...



Well, on a lighter note, the holidays are coming!!! yeah.. time for work again... shall use the time well to step back and relax and earn all the money possible!!! YES!!

oh well, oh yes... shall take this time to thank a few people who have really helped me over the past few days!!!!! Firstly, my mugging exam partners!!! thanks!!!! and to one that i had walked all the way from east coast park to bedok!!!! you know who you are.. ;) and to boon and co.!! look forward to petals on friday!!! haha... well, would typically start my "highly anticipated" novel collections with stories i have thought of during the boring MRT and bus journets soon!!! would start once it reaches the hols with a targetted 3 strories a week!!!!!

Wish me luck for my results and tomorrow's Lodging paper!!!!! lalala.....

Well, CNY over!!! projs over!!! and bla bla bla.... time for relaxation and rejuvenation!! Well, generally, i spent most of my CNY playing mahjong and catching up with old friends! well, have not been in much contact with them cause of the massive stuff and load that the projects required us to do.

But well, its over!!!! caught a few movies that i would like to recommend here today... well, its 2 only la but la la la la.... =P

I not stupid too... this is a really nice movie which really factors in the reality of the world onto Singapore sec sch students and how easy it is to influence their behaviours, etc. Being in the teenage years and especially in Singapore, it is a determinant of how they would come out to be in the future. In addition, it also reflects the major factor in both the parents' financial and emotional capability to do all of these actions. Money is not everything to your child but having the best environment suited to them are. A funny but sad movie, the most significant part would be the part of the poorer boy's dad passed on; lets name him papa.. =P. after son has been expelled from school due to a dubious student whack teacher case, papa went all over Singapore's secondary schools to find a school for son to study in. True, though papa is stupid but his sincerity and determination to find at least a studying environment for son is admirable. During this course of finding and rejection from schools, son turns bad and joins the lousy pai kia in the movie which is extremely pathetic. In short, son does not really care / appreciate... la la la and the show goes on going onto the part when son is chased by a bunch of suckas who are also dumb as well and gets beaten up along the way. Papa saws it and helps son... However, dad gets pushed down along a damn steep stairway at the overhead bridge... which results in his death... well, if i say it out, its not really much but if you watch the movie... you'd get wad i mean...

This is just a small part of the many sad and comedic scenes in the movie itself. i give it 4/5 stars!!!! =D




Next up is memoirs of a geisha....

GREAT storyline and ZHANG ZIYI IS SO DAMN PRETTY LOR!!! with her ash blue eyes or sth like that colour... WOW!!!! intruiging storyline which i will give also 4/5 stars!!! would not spoil much cause its really worth going to watch and find out the world of the geisha with your own eyes.... Amazing....





The next movies to watch, THE LONG WEEKEND, FINAL DESTINATION 3 and X MEN 3!!!!

WoOhoOo!!! -_- gotta study tho.. exams coming....
