Finally got the internet up and running at our new apartment. The new place is smaller but it's nice and cozy here. It's also much much warmer than the old place, which is really nice. Can't really tell how cold it is outside sometimes. The windows get all fogged up most of the time but I like it like that.<br /><br />Things are still messy around but I don't think we'll unpack everything since we'll be moving again the end of the year into this new place that's getting built at the moment. I'm quite excited about that. Meanwhile, here are some pix of when we first moved into the place we're at now...<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/SE0wNJk1m8I/AAAAAAAAAxk/WChe4Bg1DuQ/s1600-h/09.06.08+020.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/SE0wNJk1m8I/AAAAAAAAAxk/WChe4Bg1DuQ/s320/09.06.08+020.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5209873346404391874" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/SE02MUHvaOI/AAAAAAAAAx0/Qgw5FrzXRXA/s1600-h/09.06.08+015.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/SE02MUHvaOI/AAAAAAAAAx0/Qgw5FrzXRXA/s320/09.06.08+015.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5209879929125038306" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/SE03IE-9Y7I/AAAAAAAAAyE/QgUqQ7OiMH0/s1600-h/09.06.08+014.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/SE03IE-9Y7I/AAAAAAAAAyE/QgUqQ7OiMH0/s320/09.06.08+014.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5209880955853824946" border="0" /></a><br />It was also Pie's birthday last week.

But I'm glad I was finally given an opportunity to experience what it's like to be a fighter. I was often told by the other fighters at the gym it's a whole different world stepping into the ring. I guess I never really understood what they meant until last Sunday night.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 0);">I don't mean to be all melodramatic but as soon as the ref pronounced fight on the first round, it felt like all that mattered in the world was myself and my opponent. Come to think of it, it didn't even feel like the ref was there in the ring. I forgot about the audience, the ring girl (whose foot I stepped on later in the night), or anyone else in the fight venue. Or may be it was because I wasn't wearing my lenses and so all I could see was my opponent.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 0);">Post-fight, I now have better directions for my training. I now know what I need to work on and how I can prepare better for the next fight (eg. not lose too much weight for the weigh-in).</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 0);">Regardless of the outcome of this bout, I genuinely appreciate all the support I got from my friends and fellow fighters at the gym. And also my trainer... eventhough he doesn't say much. Everyone did a great deal to help me prepare physically and more importantly, mentally leading up to the fight.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 0);">I know training will now feel different after I've had the fight.

But it's good busy. I come home so tired everyday but I wake up excited the next day for what it has to offer me. This is a good phase. I'm 2 weeks through my personal training course at the Australian Fitness Academy and I'm loving it. It's a nice feeling to go to class everyday and learn something I have lots of interests in. Reminds me of high school in a way since I'm doing this full-time.<br /><br />I guess what I missed about high school was going into class everyday to see the same friends who would progress through the course together as a group. That was kinda absent at uni and going to the academy is letting me relive that a bit, although it'll only last a couple of months.<br /><br />I'm also likely to be fighting in the next Prosecution show. I'm super excited about this since I've been waiting quite a while for my trainer to match me up with someone and it's finally gonna happen. The fight is two weeks away so training is also getting more intense. Hopefully I do well.Subliminal Transmissionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02558816455250742887noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216078730437765377.post-54385793581362931192008-02-03T16:55:00.000+11:002008-02-03T20:10:12.187+11:00<span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 0);">I can't even begin to explain how annoying it is when one half of a pair of my socks goes missing.

An interesting movie... or should I say musical. It wasn't super duper but I must say it was very enjoyable.<br /><br />The melodies to which the lyrics were sung to were all very beautiful and complemented the scenes very well. Similar to the musical version of '<a href="http://imdb.com/title/tt0395251/">The producers</a>' (2005), I especially thought the combination of the more 'classic' singing style and the use of simple everyday/casual language in the lyrics was very cool. If my ears weren't playing tricks on me, I heard the C-word in one of the lines sung by Johnny Depp. It had quite a kick to it.<br /><br />If you're ok with a bit of blood then Sweeney Todd is very worth watching. Actually, make that lots of blood... Lots of <span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">sp</span><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">la</span><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">s</span>hing</span> <span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">blood</span>. But it's all good!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R58rWOI192I/AAAAAAAAAxE/Pg5zeq5EERA/s1600-h/cloverfield-poster.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R58rWOI192I/AAAAAAAAAxE/Pg5zeq5EERA/s200/cloverfield-poster.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5160891358742181730" border="0" /></a>As for Cloverfield, damn that movie got me so nauseous I was close to puking in the cinema. I guess it's what sets Cloverfield apart from other big screen movies, but I really am not a big fan of the hand held camera/home video style movies. The camera was constantly moving so fast that I got soooo sick. I had to take five and come out to wash my face in the bathroom. That didn't help much.<br /><br />There was a line in the movie where one of the girl characters was losing lots of blood and said she was dizzy. I felt so much like yelling out 'I'm so f*cking dizzy too!' but I don't think my fellow audience members would have appreciated it much. It certainly didn't help the whole place was smelling of rich butter from all the popcorn they had in there, either.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R58v8OI194I/AAAAAAAAAxU/4kYr8IruOyE/s1600-h/cloverfield-movie_poster.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R58v8OI194I/AAAAAAAAAxU/4kYr8IruOyE/s200/cloverfield-movie_poster.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5160896409623721858" border="0" /></a>That aside, I thought the movie had an interesting concept to it. The way the plot progressed definitely left me wanting to find out more (If I didn't have to constantly close and rest my eyes and brain every 2 minutes). The trailer and early parts of the movie did a very good job of getting you curious. If it wasn't because of the constantly moving camera, I think I would have liked the movie a lot more. I honestly really wanted to leave my eyes open and see everything they had to offer, but my brain wasn't co-operating. Ok, I'm back to complaining again. But such a shame... so promising, yet impossible for me to watch.<br /><br />Now I'm waiting for SAW IV to come out. Woohoo!! Who wants to come watch with me??<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R58vNeI193I/AAAAAAAAAxM/J_8AnZ2-dqQ/s1600-h/saw-4-iv-poster1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R58vNeI193I/AAAAAAAAAxM/J_8AnZ2-dqQ/s320/saw-4-iv-poster1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5160895606464837490" border="0" /></a>Subliminal Transmissionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02558816455250742887noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216078730437765377.post-4486310400302228312008-01-15T23:06:00.000+11:002008-01-23T00:13:48.187+11:00Parents in Melbourne (Part two)<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R48-CUXKUeI/AAAAAAAAAtc/ODB0Pq21xzw/s1600-h/DSC_0008.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R48-CUXKUeI/AAAAAAAAAtc/ODB0Pq21xzw/s200/DSC_0008.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5156408307909022178" border="0" /></a>The fourth day was the Christmas day. Everything was shut on Christmas day. EVERYTHING! I guess I hadn't expected it to be like that, seeing this was the first time I spent Christmas out of Bangkok and Christmas in Bangkok is very happening... esp. on the shopping side of things. Anyways, so we went to this beach instead and dad got to use a parking ticket machine for the first time. I think he got to have a bit of his fun.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5XR80XKUfI/AAAAAAAAAtk/JrBaRyc2eTc/s1600-h/DSC_0069.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5XR80XKUfI/AAAAAAAAAtk/JrBaRyc2eTc/s200/DSC_0069.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158259791000916466" border="0" /></a>The beach was alright but it was a lil windy so we didn't really get to hang out long. Plus we got hungry. So we went looking for a place to eat... But everything was shut. Except this nice looking restaurant but it was all booked out. Then we went to the next suburb... and then the next. Nothing was open. We decided to drive back towards the city. Uni was on the way so I thought we could stop and see if any of the restaurants was open and so I could show my parents around uni and where I work. Everything was shut. EVERYTHING... except 7/11.<br /><br />By the time, we were quite desperate. The 7/11 looked like a five star restaurant to us by then. We managed to get hold of some sandwiches and soup-in-a-cup for lunch. Look how happy we were...<br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5XUvEXKUhI/AAAAAAAAAt0/pr5VOOzrYgE/s1600-h/DSC_0071.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5XUvEXKUhI/AAAAAAAAAt0/pr5VOOzrYgE/s320/DSC_0071.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158262853312598546" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5XV8EXKUiI/AAAAAAAAAt8/5iYcrJqf-uk/s1600-h/DSC_0088.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5XV8EXKUiI/AAAAAAAAAt8/5iYcrJqf-uk/s200/DSC_0088.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158264176162525730" border="0" /></a>After lunch on the lawn, I showed mom and dad around uni. It was nice I finally got to do so. After like... nearly 5 years. Dad produced some cool photos of the buildings I was so familiar with. Pretty cool seeing them differently through the camera lens.<br /></div><br />The rest of the afternoon and since everything was shut, we decided to spend some nice sunny time at the Docklands. That was some of my favourite time off the whole trip I think. Some of the best photos that came out were also of that evening.

Then I noticed the sky was dotted with some hot air balloons. Some had only taken off not far from our apartment. Very nice to start a day off with a nice morning.<br /><br />That day we went to Werribee zoo. Woohoo! But we barely saw any animals. I don't know where they all went. I guess that's the problem with them open zoos sometimes. I remember seeing a camel, some zebras, rhinos, a few birds (they weren't even working at the zoo), and plenty of flies. FLIES!!! Annoying summer flies.<br /><br />At the zoo, I noticed the zebras had some voluptuous asses. So ample and white. I remember having thought about this before but had forgotten how nice zebra asses were until I saw them again that day. Anyways, I'm just saying.<br /><br />But it got me started taking pictures of some human asses. Probably because there weren't that many animals to see and the ones that were there weren't even doing anything interesting.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5XiaEXKUuI/AAAAAAAAAvc/E7fk9l9jYAg/s1600-h/DSC_8494.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5XiaEXKUuI/AAAAAAAAAvc/E7fk9l9jYAg/s320/DSC_8494.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158277885698134754" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5XjFEXKUvI/AAAAAAAAAvk/fMQKdbkzd8Y/s1600-h/DSC_8497.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5XjFEXKUvI/AAAAAAAAAvk/fMQKdbkzd8Y/s200/DSC_8497.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158278624432509682" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5Xjz0XKUwI/AAAAAAAAAvs/VQBJju7NEHs/s1600-h/DSC_8501.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5Xjz0XKUwI/AAAAAAAAAvs/VQBJju7NEHs/s200/DSC_8501.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158279427591394050" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5Xkd0XKUxI/AAAAAAAAAv0/M-ikbTvtkr8/s1600-h/DSC_8503.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5Xkd0XKUxI/AAAAAAAAAv0/M-ikbTvtkr8/s200/DSC_8503.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158280149145899794" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5XpOEXKU3I/AAAAAAAAAwk/M9KxiXEpY1U/s1600-h/DSC_8504.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/R5XpOEXKU3I/AAAAAAAAAwk/M9KxiXEpY1U/s200/DSC_8504.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158285376121099122" border="0" /></a><br />The eighth day we went shopping at Brunswick street.

But a toned down version so she was way more petite, non-bimbo, polite but the tits were still there. The left one felt very nice. I remember telling her I liked her tits better post-implants but realised after I woke up I got that bit mixed up with Pamela Anderson. I also knocked out an old guy in an elevator for groping my version of Anna. She was a lot of fun to hang out with.<br /><br />Anyways, I got bored of my hair and decided to go skinhead again.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RuXpQi2UylI/AAAAAAAAAgY/9WQPUwb2g8I/s1600-h/hair+010.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RuXpQi2UylI/AAAAAAAAAgY/9WQPUwb2g8I/s200/hair+010.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5108745822763534930" border="0" /></a>Before<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RuXqiC2UymI/AAAAAAAAAgg/uUghUDDlA4s/s1600-h/hair+017.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RuXqiC2UymI/AAAAAAAAAgg/uUghUDDlA4s/s200/hair+017.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5108747222922873442" border="0" /></a>Half way through, Pie suggested I kept it like this...<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RuXsLi2UynI/AAAAAAAAAgo/KlREnt8VmEY/s1600-h/hair+025.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RuXsLi2UynI/AAAAAAAAAgo/KlREnt8VmEY/s320/hair+025.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5108749035399072370" border="0" /></a>After<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RuXtvi2UyoI/AAAAAAAAAgw/FkJHfFrueSw/s1600-h/hair+023.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RuXtvi2UyoI/AAAAAAAAAgw/FkJHfFrueSw/s200/hair+023.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5108750753385990786" border="0" /></a>Goodbye hair<br /><br /></div>Subliminal Transmissionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02558816455250742887noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216078730437765377.post-488448954687262832007-09-08T14:08:00.000+10:002007-09-08T20:22:37.498+10:00Hachimaki o kudasaiWell, first thing I wanna say is the weather in Melbourne has become really soothing this weekend and I am extremely happy about it.

Aching joints, sore throat, radiating heat and pulsating head... But I started feeling better. So yesterday afternoon I decided it was time to do a bit of cleaning around my room (which has been loooooong overdue). By the end of the day, I was so proud of how clean my room felt and how nice my bathroom smelt.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RuItRS2UygI/AAAAAAAAAfw/K8rNcfJNVjE/s1600-h/pre+blog+40.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RuItRS2UygI/AAAAAAAAAfw/K8rNcfJNVjE/s320/pre+blog+40.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5107694702532282882" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);">The sight of my bed makes me so sleepy</span><br /><br /></span><div style="text-align: left;">Other than that, I had been interested in checking out <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro_Samurai">Afro Samurai</a> for a while. Then I got to watch all five episodes, courtesy of Noelle and John (who have also kindly burnt all five episodes onto a CD for me) and I must say I really liked it. Afro Samurai is coolness.

I think it's his un-hostile attitude and sense of respect for his enemy that make him so cool... attempting to offer his enemy rice and tea, before fighting one of his brothers, mildly asking for the 'number 2 headband' as an alternative to fighting... <i>'Hachimaki o kudasai</i>'...

But anyhow... today I was sitting at this food court just having late lunch. I sat on this log bench thing and had put my bag next to me on my left. I was about half way through my meal when this big biker guy came and sat next to me so I moved my bag. He came alone and I didn't think much of him except '<span style="font-style: italic;">oh.. a typical big biker guy</span>'. You know... black shirt with bike logo, beer belly, moustache+beard, sunglasses indoor etc..etc..<br /><br />But I noticed he had with him 4 krispy kreme donuts and 2 drinks. After about 4 mins, his friend turned up. Another biker... same hair cut, sunglasses. Very mean looking. They were about to have their drinks but realised they had forgotten straws. So the second biker said he was going to get some straws... He came back and the first biker looked up at him and said '<span style="font-style: italic;">Thank you, baby!!</span>' And then they kissed.<br /><br />Hehehe...Subliminal Transmissionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02558816455250742887noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216078730437765377.post-19920819391770833452007-08-13T21:00:00.000+10:002007-08-13T21:35:43.055+10:00Today I was so absent-minded that I put rubbish in a mailbox...

It was in a way what I had expected. Very down-to-earth, low-tech, Thai countryside style boxing camp with Thai country music playing on a cheap boombox in the background. At times, it actually felt like I was back in Thailand somewhere out of Bangkok.<br /><br />So I knew this was the place for me to start training at. Not that I don't like training with Ernie.. Ernie's great but I have always wanted to train at a Thai camp with a Thai ex-fighter. I would have taken a picture of what the place looks like but I didn't wanna look like a tourist in there. So may be some other time. And I'll post up some pix.<br /><br />Sidyodtong camp basically has half a dozen punching bags of different shapes and/or sizes. I guess it was so you could depict fighting both fat and thin fighters. Haha. There's also an open floor with mirrors for shadow boxing, and of course a boxing ring for some sparring/technical work. Scattered across the gym are all sorts of Muay Thai equipments and other fighting/fitness related gear, and of course pictures of HM the King of Thailand. Other than that, I must say the equipment and machines for weight trainings are inadequate, but that's what is usually expected of Muay Thai gyms. So I think I shall stick with fitness first for weights/biometrics stuff.<br /><br />Obviously, I got excited with all this. In fact, I think I was a bit too overly excited and should have taken it a little easier on the punching bags. Now I'm waiting for my right shin and ankle to stop swelling and turning purple. Hehe. I was gonna put up a picture but decided against it. I still want people to come read my blog.<br /><br />Anyways, a place like this is definitely rare in Melbourne let alone Australia and I'm happy to have found it. I shall have a lot of fun training there and I'll try to get some pictures up. Now, I really need to sleep.

I was there to buy my train ticket and when I was paying for it, the lady was just starring at my debit card like she was trying to figure out something. Before I could ask what the matter was... She looked up at me and said '<span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 255, 51);">It must have been hard for you as a child every time you had to spell your name</span><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"> </span><span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 255, 51);">in school</span>'.<br /><br />I never thought of it like that before. As kids, we didn't even realise our names were unusually long for international standard. Most of the times we had to write them out in Thai anyways. But now that I think about it... some of the comments I most often get from friends and strangers are to do with the length of my name and almost every time, I'm asked to pronounce it out for them so they can repeat, which always seem entertaining to them.<br /><br />Anyways, just something random I was thinking about today.Subliminal Transmissionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02558816455250742887noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216078730437765377.post-70873597131243969422007-08-05T10:50:00.000+10:002007-08-05T12:07:51.732+10:00<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">Ok, I'm back.

So much has happened since my last post. Interesting stuff. But I'll come back another day to elaborate. But I just wanna say..I'm usually not really one of those clumsy people who always trip and fall but today I fell like I never fell before. Proud and I were running after this tram and didn't even make it so we started slowing down.. Then the next thing I knew I was face down on the ground (oo it rhymes). The stupidest thing was I had tripped on a little green pole which must have been about a foot in height off the ground and I didn't even see it. Actually there were two of them, to make the matter worse. It was actually quite funny, in retrospect, 'cause I fell quite far forward but I looked back to see my right shoe had come off and stayed right where the pole was, looking back at me like 'what the hell was that?'. Anyways, good thing I landed on my hands, which started bleeding a lil afterwards but it's nothing serious. Proud was making sure I wasn't hurt but I knew she had some serious internal giggles going on...

One is from Siberia and the other is domestic. Both are extremely polite and well mannered, which makes them really pleasant to have around. We have arranged for them to sleep on the couch with some pillows and they seem to be settling in just fine.<br /><br />But Mr. Popo and Ms. Bella get rather jittery at times. The sound of the door bell makes them jump. And at night they would come and scratch on our bedroom doors, asking to enter. But in their own naturally adorable way. Here is what they look like...<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmVwhDAnQqI/AAAAAAAAAc4/dWBMX2tQkoI/s1600-h/w+017.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmVwhDAnQqI/AAAAAAAAAc4/dWBMX2tQkoI/s400/w+017.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5072584268348605090" border="0" /></a>Mr. Popopi (10+ kg's)<br /><br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmVw1zAnQrI/AAAAAAAAAdA/ETaLKuC7QsY/s1600-h/w+025.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmVw1zAnQrI/AAAAAAAAAdA/ETaLKuC7QsY/s400/w+025.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5072584624830890674" border="0" /></a>Ms. Bella<br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">I don't think I've ever met cats this well behaved and so affectionate, especailly Popo. He always does this soft purr that makes him sound like a pigeon. Hehe. And is always ready to give you a soft peck on the cheek.<br /><br />Bella has a funny habit of pushing doors open with her paw and squeezing into small spaces. They are also probably the only cats I know that have their own friendster accounts. Anyways, more pictures...<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV3NzAnQxI/AAAAAAAAAdw/C2GzZ2D9PQU/s1600-h/w+022.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV3NzAnQxI/AAAAAAAAAdw/C2GzZ2D9PQU/s320/w+022.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5072591634217517842" border="0" /></a>Popo is always up for a belly rub<br /><br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV2ijAnQwI/AAAAAAAAAdo/QnoLJG-IDZQ/s1600-h/w+013.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV2ijAnQwI/AAAAAAAAAdo/QnoLJG-IDZQ/s320/w+013.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5072590891188175618" border="0" /></a>Having dinner<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV4GzAnQyI/AAAAAAAAAd4/6bvOZ34aWso/s1600-h/w+021.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV4GzAnQyI/AAAAAAAAAd4/6bvOZ34aWso/s320/w+021.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5072592613470061346" border="0" /></a>Bella watching Popo rolling around the floor<br /><br /></div> </div> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV43zAnQzI/AAAAAAAAAeA/zOigDVbU8LA/s1600-h/w+014.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV43zAnQzI/AAAAAAAAAeA/zOigDVbU8LA/s320/w+014.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5072593455283651378" border="0" /></a>Popo missing his dad<br /><br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV5WzAnQ0I/AAAAAAAAAeI/u6bGbZKvRW4/s1600-h/w+036.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV5WzAnQ0I/AAAAAAAAAeI/u6bGbZKvRW4/s320/w+036.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5072593987859596098" border="0" /></a>Popo loves sitting on my notes<br /><br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV5vDAnQ1I/AAAAAAAAAeQ/S0GQXmMz2Rk/s1600-h/w+015.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV5vDAnQ1I/AAAAAAAAAeQ/S0GQXmMz2Rk/s320/w+015.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5072594404471423826" border="0" /></a>Bella's attempt at sliding the balcony door open<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV9DDAnQ3I/AAAAAAAAAeg/yizt91uihsA/s1600-h/w+038.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_iGYPjlc4Tw0/RmV9DDAnQ3I/AAAAAAAAAeg/yizt91uihsA/s320/w+038.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5072598046603690866" border="0" /></a>??<br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br />On a seperate note, my tongue is healing fast.

And your stupid teeth can't tell food from tongue.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">Today I bit myself so hard a lil chunk came off. I swear.. I'm not joking. It was the worse one I've ever had in my life. Good thing I had some beer to sterilise the cut straight away. The bubbly effect must have helped clean the cut. I hope somehow that bit of my tongue grows back properly. Right now it's black and purple.<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);font-size:85%;" ><span style="font-style: italic;">*I'll spare you with no picture on this one</span></span><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 102);"><br />I think I've been studying a lil too much and not sleeping enough...</span>Subliminal Transmissionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02558816455250742887noreply@blogger.com5
