Perseid meteor shower
--
alright , being the very amateur astronomer that i am , i guess it is my duty to inform you guys about the coming meteor shower later on in the wee hours of the night. If you're in Singapore , the best time to observe it would be probably 12-2am and 5am as thats the predicted peak. Don't put too much hope on it though , its gonna be a rather dim event and with the kind of shitty cloudy and light infested skies we have , count yourself lucky if you even manage to see one. For all ye readers from other countries , you might find this info useful. http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2004/25jun_perseids2004.htm
I won't be staying up late for this though , i have an economics test to mug for . Arghhhhh.

OKay , hands up all you who can chant this refrain by heart. Those who frequent places like Sparks ( EEEEEEEEEEEEW ) , Club 3 or just about any club down the stretch of Mohd Sultan , you probably know this.
I can chant this too you know.
Yes , i admit. I go to such places ( EXCLUDING SPARKS ) and i can't help but be embarrassed should i bump into my friends along that stretch and inevitably one eyebrow would be raised when they see the ink chop on my hand that screams "CLUb 3".
WHat the F.
Whats wrong with Techno ?!
People tend to stereotype techno junkies as bengs and lians.
I beg to differ. I certainly do not fit into the mould of one and neither do my techno clubs kakis . We don't sport numerous ugly dragon tattoos or spew out vulgarities at one a second.
However , my priority would still be R&b places like cheeky monkeys'.
But sometimes i can't help thinking that the crowd there is so.. fake. You see immaculately dressed girls with tops that leaves little to the imagination , struggling to balance on *gasp!* stilettos ! And i've noticed that these girls even share the same kind of tan. The kind of tan that will probably result in complexion that looks and feels like scrunched paper and melanoma. Ha. I'm happy being pale . And bronzers works wonders for me , thank you very much.
If you thought pottering on those killer heels is hard , try dancing on em' WHILE holding onto a martini.
And the perfect accessory ?
A red-faced caucasian with his hairy paws all over her butt cheeks. The girls speak in exaggerated accents trying to outdo one another . I like R&B , and R&B is supposed to be laid back but .. Sigh. And yes i do feel rather out of place at times , in my outfit deemed too skimpy by my dad but tame to the crowd @ cheeky's or some other R&b places.
Oh Shit.
I've disgressed WAAAAAAAAAAAAY too much ! The roof is on fire topic wasnt meant to be directed at clubbing but fireworks.
Damn.
Okay , lets talk abt fireworks.
The Singapore Fireworks Festival is on full swing now and i must admit that i've never been very interested in fireworks , the reason it being too artificial.
I was cajoled into watching it with T last sunday and we waited abt 2 hours just for that mere 3 minutes of coloured gunpowder .
Sure it was beautiful and some might say , spectacular. but i was more content sitting beside him than actually appreciating the riot of colours illuminating the city skyline. Oh and did i mention , that spot we took in the middle of the Benjamin sheares bridge was MAGFICIENT? The view was woah-woah-WOAH ! Too bad we were in it with probably a thousand or so people. Not good.
I love his scent. I could go on inhaling it for hours and not die of an overdose. mmmmm.
