5 Magazine Road, Central Mall Singapore

Read: The new Haunt. Velvet Dragon...

5 Magazine Road in it's short clubbing history, has ALWAYS been a great place to party.

Madae Wong, Momo, and now, the new revamped, upscale, upmarket, Velvet Dragon! *rawr*

I was there last nite with Su. It didn't bring back the fond memories of Club Momo, but it was fun, all in good faith.

Cover is $10 for the boys before 11, and $20 after that. Girls can almost enter for free any day of the week that they're open. The same age limit applies, 18 for the ladies, and 21 for the guys, so no boys allowed. =)

I can't help but compare Velvet Dragon (Velvet D) and Momo. Mind you, when it still existed, I enjoyed MOMO a lot. I may have not said it, but I was a little disappointed when she closed down.. But now, there's Velvet D!

Not great, but an adequate replacement to the moth. The setting was extravagant though. It's now more upmarket, more upbeat. Interior seems Bohemish, and te lighting was horrible. But what made Velvet D sexy are the CAGES!

Unleash the BEAST in you when you enter the cages. Not sleazy, but sexy definitely. The stage was used previously if you got the moves to show.. But the cages set you on a totally different level of enjoyment, entertainment and sexiness.

Music is still good, as ever. Better than MOS's Smoove on most nights. Danceable tunes all night long, and it's stuff you heard before, and not some underground stuff by some strange group. Sexy RMB from 1230 to around 230. Before a little retro, and ol' skool rock stings you. Then Hip Hop hits you right back!

Overall Velvet D is worth a visit, and purists of Momo must agree with me, that there ain't no other club better than this one right here, on Number 5.

Thanks Su. I had a WONDERFUL time. And I sure did have fun playing in this playground! A nice closure to a lifeless week, eh?

When I Get Bored

Your Seduction Style: Au Natural

You rank up there with your seduction skills, though you might not know it.
That's because you're a natural at seduction. You don't realize your power!
The root of your natural seduction power: your innocence and optimism.

You're the type of person who happily plays around and creates a unique little world.
Little do you know that your personal paradise is so appealing that it sucks people in.
You find joy in everything - so is it any surprise that people find joy in you?

You bring back the inner child in everyone you meet with your sincere and spontaneous ways.
Your childlike (but not childish) behavior also inspires others to care for you.
As a result, those who you befriend and date tend to be incredibly loyal to you.

What Kind of Seducer Are You?

Your Personality Is Like Alcohol

You're the life of the party, a total flirt, and probably a pretty big jokester.
Sometimes your behavior gets you in trouble, but you still remain socially acceptable.
You're a pretty bad driver, and you're dancing could also use a little work!

What Drug Is Your Personality Like?

Your Lust Quotient: 68%

You are a very lustful person - and it sometimes gets the better of you!
You know how to hold back, but you hardly ever do.

How Much Lust Do You Have?

You Are a Realist

You don't see the glass as half empty or half full. You see what's exactly in the glass.
You never try to make a bad situation seem better than it is...
But you also never sabotage any good things you have going on.
You are brutally honest in your assessments of situations - and this always seems to help you cope.

Are You An Optimist or Pessimist?

Hmmm....

Your Ex is Dependent

Your ex is dependent on others from almost everything - and has trouble accepting responsibility.
Your ex is not able to be independent and fears being alone.
People with dependent personality disorder feel helpless when a relationship ends and need constant reassurance.
Sound at all familiar?

What's Wrong With Your Ex?

And something for the Ego...

You Are 77% Sexy

Your Sex Appeal Is: Extremely High

You're very sexy. You just have that certain something that takes over a room.

You know how to attract, entice, and keep whoever you want. You are truly appealing.

How Much Sex Appeal Do You Have?

Today's RJ...

Here's the question:

Do you believe in helping a hungry person by giving him a fish or by teaching him how to fish. Discuss.

Here's my reply...

"A hungry person needs to eat, and it would take more than fish to just keep him alive, for now. In the long run, you would eventually need to teach him how to fish, assuming he is not allergic to seafood. That's life, in short."

I'm so prepared for a C.

Well... I'm so excited!

It's May 21. It's another 3 (or is it 4?) days to my 2nd year with Su!

How fast time flies when you're having fun.

And this relationship has come with its fair share of ups and downs. But at the end of the day, wanting to achieve the same goal, with negotiations, and sacrifice, it's gonna make us survive the problems of apocalyptic proportions. The best has yet to be, and the worst has yet to come.

But Bangkok is just three weeks away...

I love you, Su. Always.

Friction

Merriam-Webster says:

friction (n.) the rubbing of one body against another

Funny.. I thought this was called GRINDING.

Mmmm....

I'm having thoughts of Momo all over again. When I had that body rubbing against mine at the witching hour...

Mmmm...

Why did Momo have to close down.

I want another Momo.

Me and Su had a great day at JE Swimming Complex today. Fabulous day. Fun-filled quality time.

I miss that.
"
I miss you, and that little body frictioning against mine. And i still so LUUUURRRRVVVEEEE that hair of yours. Yummy.

Us. 2 Years in 5 days.
Us. Bangkok in 3 weeks.
Us. In love, and loving it.

Its another 2 weeks before the holidays. If I count correctly, the holidays should start on Tuesday, 5th June.

Wow.

That's another 17 days, there abouts.

Then it's BANGKOK!

I'm definitely looking forward to Bangkok. There are 3 OTHER things that I wanna do there, besides visiting temples and having a great time with Su..

The first is SHOPPING! Shopping at Chatuchak Weekend market.. not to be missed.

The second is SHOPPING! Shopping in the Pratunam area, including Patpong, Suan Lum and MBK/Siam Square area..

And last but not least, as you have guessed correctly again, is SHOPPING! This part of shopping would include Chinatown and at Nakorn Kasem.

Woo!

Lynnette, can help me pack the Survival Goody bag, you presented in class? LOL! I'm gonna ask Faisal for backup money.. LOL.

I love you, Su. One final barrier before the trust is complete. And we know it. Enjoy the weekend. Sunday, you're MINE! Muahahhahaah!

Have a good weekend everyone.

I'm tired, but...

I'm tired.

Tired from school. Everyday. 9-5. Think, think, think. Breaks are like meaningful pauses in conversations; meant for you to absorb, digest, only to churn again.

That's me. That's me, burning out. And it's only Week 5.

Same ol' stuff.

Bah.

I wanna stone from the first meeting. But I can't afford it. There's too much at stake. And the team needs me. If I wanna die, it's better I die alone.

With great power (and influence) comes great responsibilities.

Go spidey.

Luckily, I'm able to still love. Loving someone that I won't get tired of loving. If love was a 9-5 thing, then I'm on overtime all the time, weekends included.

Like I said, I'm tired.

Team Work

My RJ for Today.

So good, it's worth an entry.

Working as a team, requires sound leadership, generous amounts of initiative, a certain level of realism, as well as foresight, and not to mention the ability to complete a given task while thinking about the thought processes.

That's what learning at RP is about, and these are the skills that eventually most, if not all the students at Rp will pick up.

No man is an island, I must say, and you need teamwork and cooperation to perform at the highest level in order to attain the best results. Today, I felt that I have not performed at my peak, yet I feel that my team mates have benefitted enourmously from the way things are done today. More importantly, I felt that today, they have done very well as a team, and allowing for learning to take place.

Being naturally loud, there is a tendency that the leadership role gravitates around me, and that my team mates do look to me for direction, purpose and clarification. And today, honestly, I feel that I have not let the team down. (I feel that way in VB sometimes - doing enough for everyone so that they pull through, but leaving them with more questions than answers.) The nature of todays' problem has allowed learning at an individual level, where not much prior knowledge is needed (compared to P2 and P3...). It seems that everyone ended today on a high note, knowing that they have contributed to the teams' learning, and that's what's important to measure the effectiveness of a leader - ensuring team members' morale remain high.

This comes to initiative. Again, after working together in teams for weeks, individually everyone knows their roles in teams. Today, many things happen in the team which work like clockwork. All because of initiative. No more barking orders, nor moral persuasion, all they need is a prompt in the right direction. And I have better faith in them too, especially when grades matter.

With all that energy, there must be someone to in control, and diverting the bountiful energy into beneficial ideas for the teams' learning. That's when realism comes in. Although not confined as the roles of a leader, there must be someone in the group who needs to ensure that thoughts are kept on track, and every arrow of argument points into the direction of solving the problem. At the same time, he must also ensure that examples are realistic, accurate and relevant.

Foresight in the team is also dependant on the one who pays attention and knows the subject of the teams' presentation well. Foresight allows the sharing of knowledge on potential pitfalls in the presentaion, as well as questions that may be posed by the floor. As much as possible, I do try to cover as much of these angles. Without foresight, the general impression of others on the team would degenerate, which may result in lower grades when incompetencies are exposed.

And last but not least, the part which brings everything in, and ensures the success of PBL, is the ability to perform work, while at the same time, being aware of the learning and thought processes. Any mindless drone can complete any given task well. But it takes a fair amount of thought to realise the learning involved in the actions we are doing. And I beleive, that today, the team has started to get the hang of it. By giving them a particular section of the problem to work on they will understand what understanding is needed of them, and this would help them remember and learn better.

That's everything a team needs, and I believe that's what I have done today, which not only has improved on my personal learning, but also the team's learning processes.

Give a man a fish, and you will feed him for a day.
Teach him how to fish, and you will feed him a lifetime.
Tell him that he is fishing, and make him understand his thought processes, and he will feed an entire village for generations to come.

I love you, Su. Always.

Sunday

I inteded on a cultural post of Dikir Barat, but a lot of research has to be put in it, and there's too much that I wanna say..

Anyway...

I got sand in my a**. Went swmming at the beach yesterday with Su, and we got some books on Thai food, culture and language too.

Looking forward to be a khaek in the country, not a farang.

Other than that, there's MCG meeting tomorrow. More clapping! *YEA!* And VB classes too..

I love you, SU.

Can I stop smiling?

I'm dying slowly.

I'm starting to lose my smile. Slowly, it's replaced by lethargy and pent up frustrations.

Do I have to think all the time? Can I cut myself some slack and yet enjoy the grades like the others do, without wearing away the grey matter?

Can I get through the day without thinking and generating ideas, and scrape off with a B grade?

I love her. Does she know that?

It doesn't matter. My love is everlasting. My love is true. My love is sincere.

Can I embrace you, and savour the moment like it was our first? Can I hold you in my arms and never let go? Can I blow you kisses till the end of eternity?

If this dream ain't gonna stop, then I better start enjoying it. If love is a sacrifice, then I'm in love.

Are you?

When sauntering turns into a Jog

UT Tomorrow!

The first of many.

I'm just begining to die! ARGH!

But definitely I can't die now. There are too many things weighing me down, that if I decide to die now, it's worse than being alive.

I'm bracing for the ride.

The grades are coming in hard and fast. And what used to be a walk in the park, onw requires more urgency, energy and reselience to get through.

So as the UTs are here to stay, and would be on Christina's and Surya's palate on Tuesdays and Thursdays at least for this term, up till June.

Other than that, the people in class are FUN! W46M, we rock la.. Here's a pic of the class.. NOt everyone, one or two are missing from here and there, but generally everyone's here. Can you spot me?

W46M: That's US! (Thanks Lynnette)

Other than that, I'm feeling the lethargy of classes. I wish you guys speak up more, and grab the mic away from the rest of us.

I love you Su. Friday we meet, can?

The Art of Tough Questions

"Lead by example, let experience be your guide, let knowledge be your power, let words be your tool, and let bluff be your weapon."

Self-explanatory.

Confidence is key. Even if you don't know the answer. It's more convincing when you bluff with a straight face, than to grimace, and sweat. Then people think your talking nonsense.

When you're up on stage, the world looks at you. For the few minutes, you are KING! Show your weakness, and you're immediately the court jester. BUT, it doesn't hurt to admit your mistakes (sometimes).

When you're on stage, show no emotion and no mercy. Showing emotion is a weakness. Save the tears and the celebrations afterwards. When you celebrate on stage when you have overcome a trying situation, there are people who would want to shoot you down further.

Confidence takes practice. Smokes require fires to burn. Read extensively. There be no fire without fuel.

Master the art, and by then, you can lie through the skin of your teeth.

Lying is blasphemous. But 'tis human.

But there be no lies when you show a person you care. When you love someone, love her till the end, love her like no other, love her for all that she's worth and more.

It'd be a lie if I said I don't love you.

It's a lie, if I said I won't die without you.

There be no greater truth, than the truth in the language of love. For you must see through these lies, that deep down inside there be a man who loves you, with every breath he takes, and every thought he makes, there's nothing but a silent whisper of your name.
