Whew. Was raining cats and dogs and frogs this afternoon, which meant there wasn't any soccer for today, real bad. The monsoon period is back again. Sometimes I really do wonder what is the meaning of life really, you know, the thought derives when you pause for a little while and start to think, your thoughts wandering off into some fantasy land (don't think sick). Life is so much like a monotonous routine whereby we only live on to see a change, but it's all an illusion. Let me illustrate this: When you were young and you were just a toddler where everyone wanted to pinch your cheeks and you were the joy in the house, you live a routine of getting yourself plump and sleeping. As your age increases, so does your responsibility. Now your responsible for going through a vicious cycle of torment and mental destruction otherwise known as education, because your parents pinned their hopes on you like a dart thrown on the scoreboard (the circle thing, whatever you call it). Day after day, month after month, year after year, you do the same old thing: Eat, study, play, eat some more, play, sleep. It's getting monotonous and you're getting pretty irked by the routine, so you look forward to the future, you vision a bright light shining through the door like it's an escape for this regimental lifestyle. That's how we live by, day by day, month by month, year by year, for a painful lot of years. But as troublesome creatures like humans, we are not satisfied forever. Then we start to search for a meaning of life and it dawned on me. Religiously, I found it. I'm a Christian. My meaning of life is in God. Non-religiously, I found it too. The crux of the answer to this complicated question is by looking at other cute little animals that we live with. They eat, they grow, they have sex, they die. Get the picture? It's really vicious to say this - but we live to reproduce. Face it. We buy stuff like branded clothes, learn some cool skills and dress ourselves up nicely and presentable - why? It's the attraction. All for the sake of attracting the opposite sex. Oh well, you might not agree, but that's pretty much my opinion in this way :D When you're on your death bed, it's not the money and material wealth that you have is important anymore, it's the relationship with other people. Would you miss your bank notes rather than your parents/friends/son when you die? Depressive topic, but true and hard. But on the bright side, there's still people living through this "routines" with you: For example, my class, the vibrant class that is truly indeed full of energy, that is mad, berserk, and at the same time ridiculous funny. If Games Carnival had Bottle Soccer, I'm pretty confident and can guarantee you that my class team would secure the champion position - I mean, look at them, they train EVERY SINGLE RECESS! But I'm not really sure they will do that well in the real soccer game :P Then you get the die-hard gamblers, okay, not really - people who are spicing up their boring routine with the entertainment of rectangular cardboard with pictures on it otherwise known as cards. Then you get hardcore Nintendo DS addicts, the newest fashion and tension in town - Mario Kart competitions, players gather all over the After all, there are things that are spicy enough in this dull neverending routine, for example: green sodium chloride in Chemistry. And you thought memorising the ions charges back in Lower Secondary was tougher than jumping off from twelve storeys, and when you look back, you realise it's peanut butter jam mixed with elephant nuts. Mmm. Yummy. Okay happy school day tomorrow, check this out by the way: Peace out :D Reply to tags: Carnicus - OMG Lycanthrophe, that is so knowledgable :P Rina - Tranquility is good my friend :D Eat more vegetable. You'll tolerate anger better. Okay, not really, I'm just being influenced by Miss Chan Ho. Boon May - OI! Not my fault I got STM right, it's all your fault lah, who ask you feed me the Boon Lay's Bee Hoon inside got drugs one, now I cannot think properly, naughty! Su Wei - Yeah, but what to do right? The world is filled with lust, mah. Xiaxuan - :DDDDDD I have no idea why I put that, but the Singapore Run made me do so :) Cherie - OMG. Can I please debone you and then fry with carrot and potato then? To ensure the peace in mankind by defending the world against the attack of the Camwhore virus :) Wan Zhuo - WAH LAO! Not fair! The uncle eyes chop stamp one, cannot see that your underaged. TSK. Next time need to watch NC16 ask you along, so can smuggle in.. OH WAIT. I'm turning 16, soon, HAHA :P (I'm not that old to be uncle ok!) EDIT: I AM DAMN PISSED AFTER WATCHING GIRLS OUT LOUD EPISODE 3 PART 2 WHERE THEY FEATURED CELESTE CHEN OMFG-SHE-MUST-DIE. For those who don't know who in the banana nuts is Celeste Chen, she's a Vblogger (a blogger who uses much of video) and she gets 700 THOUSAND views (that's what she proclaims) and her language STINKS. At least Xia Xue's blog is good because she doesn't use her body in order to SEDUCE old teeko peks to get famous, like what Celeste do. Her blog's background is her picture wearing 1/4 jeans and some kinda revealing top but she doesn't has any good figure or looks anyway. SO ANGRY. And Girls Out Loud featured Steven Lim, another figure depicting the failure of manhood. The guys suck at girls. Come on, they could do something better, like getting me on the programme, don't you just have to agree? SAY YES! Leon is back again with the Chronicles of Cooking, this week presenting to you all one of the most delicious food ever conjured (out of the 2 food that I have learnt how to cook) - The Orange Gazed Chicken! Along side with Cherie the World's Renown Camera Whore who won the Best Camwhore title award for a mere 10 years in a row, we bring you the most interesting step by step cooking-made-easy guide - preparing a delicious healthy feast for the family, oh what an achievement! First, you need to purchase a few obese juicy looking chicken drumsticks from your nearby market or NTUC. Next, you have to go through a cruel and grotesque unhumane process called deboning whereby you would have to remove the bone of the chicken drumstick from the flesh. You are warned that there will be lots of gore and might risk fainting. Parental advisory compulsory. The end result? Mr Lonely Bone and yummy raw chicken flesh. Meanwhile, slice the groovy orange color stick otherwise known as carrots into big fat chunks and do the same for the Then you add some orange peels in a bowl containing the obese delicious raw flesh that you have deboned, after adding oyster sauce. Then add some red hot chilli pepper, a little bit of soy sauce and squeeze some yellow balls otherwise known as lemon. The end product, a disgusting looking mixture of something that has the potential to be damn bloody tasty, after a process called Here comes Leon the Energy in action, too fast for the camera's shutter speed to capture a clear picture. Oh look at this popping veins *backs off*! Camwhore Cherie grabs the attention of the world with her ever fatal peace sign again, this time frying the cold yellow chunk of butter. Zsssssssssssst, the sound of Next, pop in the colorful chunks and watch them brown. And then later the marinaded chicken and watch it miraculously turn edible (cooking is such an amazing process, really). In this process the nerves in your nosehair will probably suffer an emotional breakdown because it is unable to withstand the overwhelming fragrance. Fry, fry, fry. Cherie tasting the food. After the process of frying and stomachs all ready to welcome the hot steaming food to digest, we still have one ultimate step to reach the final product. BAKING the food for an approximate 10 minutes under 200 degree celcius heat. End product? A hungry Kai Liang succumbing to the temptation of the delicious heavenly smell emitting from the juicy chicken (which taste sweet as well because of the orange). And I swear, some of the traffic coming into the blog is damn outrageous: People searching for Fang Ning in blogger and ending up on my blog. WTFishmonger? And then people searching for Rachel (Sec 3 netballer) as well, innocently landing on leon-.blogspot.com. *hints hints to Kenny, nudges nudges* Talking about leon-.blogspot.com, Justin let me into this amazing discovery: The leon.blogspot.com , and whoever owns that website I'm gonna so mercilessly dismember him because look at his MOST recent post, year 2001 ?! OI. I want my domain name so I can remove this stupid hyphen okay! Nevermind. And Justin's studying for common test, WOW. A miracle. Hmph. I was actually studying Chinese in the early morning but when noon came I realised I couldn't really make it. Things accomplished: - Doing my chinese workbook (wow!) - Reading my chinese newsletter (even more wow!) - Watching Chinese show (WOW!) Yeah, was watching this Chinese show about some Chinese assassins who were damn brutally trained, they had to use lethal methods and in the end had to kill their own friends in order to survive, much like the survival of the fittest. After watching the show, I swear, I was feeling so bored of educational stuffs that I completely threw away my chinese stuff one side and came online just to blog (must be honoured, okay!). Feeling soooooooooo lethargic all the way for the whole day - was playing soccer yesterday after Flag Day, slept like a suckling pig for a total of 14 hours (I SWEAR, my dark rings/eyebags are still there). Lethargic. REPLY TO TAGS: CHEE YANG - I did write that myself according to my creative juices okay! :D ARIEL - Green tea is cool! And of course you gotta be moved by my dettol man, it's the world's most valuable medicine. Must treasure okay! Can cure all coconut-related diseases. KAI WEI - Next time I make Kai Kwa, okay?! :) And my email is.. hehehe, find out from Justin Khaw. RINA - LOL. I not so fragile okay, and it's more like you bully such a nice guy like me because nice people don't bully nice people. How's the anger management coming? Meditate more :D JET - Shiok for you lah, my ang pow money still remain constant, luckily. Anyway, I bet you went for indoor tan right, so dark, like charcoal mix with black paint :P DANIEL - Huh, what has it gotta do with focus? LOL. I think you focus too much on bak kwa until thoughts went haywire :P Anyway I can't find a source where all these pops up came from. Ultimate solution? MOZZILA FIREFOX! PENG JIN - Next time got Penguin Kwa, surely! RACHEL - Rachew! My green tea nice right, of course nice lah. I buy one what, if not nice, I'm gonna throw you into SPCA. Scared or not? :P And where can like that, underestimate my Chinese language ability, tsk. Evil, evil, mushroom corrupted! WAN ZHUO - Self denial is bad! And don't fly too high, later cannot wan (turn) then you fly until Jupiter then you know. CHANG SHENG - WAH! I bet your DS increased memory space by a few gigs because of me right, HEHE :P AIRPORK - Okay! Bak kwa nice to eat, I'll eat more! AMIRUL - Yeah man period, next time will have chicken version so it won't be racist! :D JOSHUA - !xobile , hot piece of meat, every girl want a piece of it! Nevermind if you don't like being a meat, you can be a Singapore soccer player potential! SU WEI - HELLO! Talk to you sometime in school ;) ASTRID - Very nong nong ago already. How can you be so muddled up with the conquest of jelly beans until you forget about tagging in my blog? SO EVIL! HUI MIN - That is so random! If your 2 metres, I must have been 3 metres :P Unless you wear charcoal friendly heels, heels that won't burn HEHEHE. BOON MAY - I don't owe you lolipop! But your snickers is still stuck in my fridge. You owe me Bee Hoon! AUDREY - Okay buddy! WAN SWEN - Yeah man, I love youtube! Singapore should has its own version - Youtiao. And Melson aunt always give him alot one, this year very little, that's why ang pow stock market drop mah. CHERIE - Hydroxide upload your evil camwhore pictures already! Don't whine! Or else I'm gonna cook you next friday! EDIT: I made polls for the blogskin already, do entitle your opinion there! (AND all that you see below is written by Leon and Leon alone) Feeling the Four days passed by in a blink of an eye, faster than a Ferrari F1 car and New Year has, in my disappointment and relief, passed - like my viral infection. Leon's a pretty much healthy guy right now so he's here to bring you the latest new update on this year's stock market. First, let's hear what our world professional stock market analyst Melson has to say. Melson, the mic is yours : Indeed. The Ang Pow company's share has Cries of anguish and agony could be heard all over Singapore, and the children could be heard desperately crying out, " Unemployment could be seen everywhere but hunger strikes are not seen in this economy breakdown, which is a really unusual thing. Why? Rumours says that the big players of the stock market has sold their shares in Ang Pow and used the money to invest in Bak Kua (Barbecued pork) company, causing a drasmatic increase of seventy seven dollars. "Mr Tan Ah Kow of Bak Kua Pte. Ltd, what's your take on this?" "Ah, actually hor, I think right, it's not my fort that my Bak Kua got more appeal then those red packets that look like those you know, from Geylang one, so of cost steal a little beat of their customer lah, a little beat only lah, won't die one. Want to die, eat more Bak Kua, I confirm plus chop plus stamp plus guarantee plus Fedex plus Singapore Airlines that you die of indigestion." "Talking about Bak Kua, which is a famous Chinese delicacy and a MUST BUY for all Chinese during Chinese New Year, what are your plans for future business endeavours?" "Ah, don't say until so chimology leh, sometimes ah, my 3G useless one lah, cannot connect. Bluetooth can or not?" *Am chio (silence laugh)* "Okay, I was trying to ask whether you have any plans for making business in the future." "ORH. OF COURSE GOT LAH. PEOPLE COMPLAIN AH, BAK KUA BAK KUA ONLY CHINESE EAT, MALAY WHY CANNOT EAT, RACIST IS IT! So in order to solve this very very chim and difficult question, I finally come out with a Hallehlujah idea. I decide to sell.." "...?" "HALAL KUA!" "WITH THIS HALAL KUA, DEEPAVALI PEOPLE CAN BUY, HARI RAYA PEOPLE ALSO CAN BUY, THEN MY BUSINESS WILL UPSIZE AH! MONEY IN FAST FAST, ME SMILE SMILE!" "Okay, thank you for accepting our interview, Mr Tan" "NO PLOBLEM AH!" REPLY TO TAGS: RINA - I'm gonna turn young people into BAK KUA. You watch out! Okay lah, give you chance first, don't say I bully you, okay? :D Work on your anger management ;) I have faith in you! HUI MIN - I not racist! Teacher teach me racial harmony, I got one, okay! If I dwarf, then you what! Dwarf junior ah! :P JUSTIN - HEY TIN TIN. I tell you, when he starts to open his mouth and scold someone, you know he is the undisputed championship owner of the Arena in the 1980s. SW - Oh well, it's a matter of perspective my friend! And I keep mentally pronouncing your alias as SWAN. I have no idea why too! RACHEL - OF COURSE I UNDERSTAND! MY CHINESE NOT SO LI PU OKAY :D! Got shan zhen hai wei never share with me, what kind of friend! Next time don't give you eat campbelle soup already lah, the mushroom I grow is priceless okay! JET - Hey Jet, get well soon man! God bless, and no, I never sniffed marijuana in my life before, just using it as a comparison ;) Daniel of Sec 3 - CARNIUS. Next time just name yourself carnius then I know who already. LOVELY AND GAY can be together, you can find a real life example at Thailand , you never know! (: - LOL. At first I thought he was a.. well you know ;) Maybe he was imported from Thailand? AND the MAGNET thing doesn't even work HAHA, it'll only get him killed cause he'll stand there thinking the magnet would work. TOILET - Haha, don't need. Imeem suits me fine :) thanks, bro. EDIT: Lol, I just checked out Xiaxue's blog which made me check out Girls Out Loud clips on youtube, and it is damn bloody funny: If hell was to let loose, it was yesterday. Okay, not really. Just that I was having a viral infection out of the midst of God-knows-where. Back ache, nausea, dizzyness, lose of appetite , fever, weakness. It's worse than overdosing on marijuana, I swear. Just came back from the morning grocery trip with sis (it's amazing how we can bury the hatchet so quickly like nothing happened) and gosh we queued up for 20 minutes in NTUC just to buy... A microwave made ready pizza, mushroom flavoured, for $4.55. Talking about the new year, everyone is storming the supermarket in the morning to buy their groceries BUT they queued up at the express line, which is only for customers that have only 5 items and below. Banana nuts. And then I bought this for my breakfast, it's called Mee hun kuey , I don't know what is it called in English, though. It is some strips of flour cooked in some kind of delicious soup and then toppled with pork floss and ikan belis . But that's not what I'm trying to say here. Sometimes, hawker food really kills. When I saw how the cook prepared the food, I tell you, I was filled with disgust. Luckily, that particular dish wasn't cooked for me, it was for another unlucky victim who probably is gonna suffer from food poisoning later on. To prepare Mee Hun Kuey, you have to throw in the strips of flour into the soup. What happened was this: The cook sorta missed her throw (I have no idea why) and one of the strip fell on the stove. As you know, the stove is full of ash and oil and dirt and bacteria. So one would think that it is better to throw away that strip. BUT NO. SHE PICKED IT UP AND THREW IT IN, OH MY DJIE. Horrible vegetable. Back to yesterday. Went to doctor after 3 trips to relative houses' which I thought was miraculous how I survived these 3 trips without vomitting. Somehow or rather when I went into the doctor's room and saw his face, he looked like a guardian angel (insert 'Hallehlujah' here). Doctor said it was a viral infection and I just need plenty of rest - which I did, for 14 freaking hours. When I reached home, I thought to myself 'Now I really know what they meant by home sweet home'. Nothing was more relieving than the toilet bowl in the bathroom, seriously. I was trying to control myself from purging like a Merlion before reaching home. Damn terrible. Now I know how anorexic people feel. After my purging session in the toilet, what seemed to be the cause of my viral infection is finally revealed: These innocent looking cookies that hides a demonic virus within. Overdosing on too much goodies during Chinese New Year is BAD BAD BAD. Seems like many of my friends are falling ill too. Get well soon for those who are falling ill (but it might be a blessing too cause you get to miss school HAHA). And I swear that cats can be such pussies sometimes (oh wait, they are pussies!) This video is recorded at 5 am. Oh well. I'm feeling better now luckily, but I don't think I'd be going out with Melson today to go visit other people. At least this infection made me realise how important families are :) Peace out y'all! Reply to tags: KEITA - HAPPY CNY man. Ya man I'm still waiting for your origami wallet okay! (see, see, I'm so devoted!) Okay tell you what, I pluck out Bedok Reservoir's tree and give it to you, you give my wallet in exchange, okay? Set. WAN ZHUO - I don't want to die leh! I not your dog, ask me die means must die meh?! I bet you eat too much brownies when your young that's why become brown color right? :P Next time wear red contacts lah. And don't worry, I very cheerful one, when you play pool with me I will cheer for you, so that you won't get demoralised! :P BOON YEE - Haha, thanks bud. Happy CNY! CHEE YANG - Love is in the air! No more traditional Ying Yang, now we have, CHEE YANG! :D And I think in the near future, robots are gonna be the "in" thing. Handphones are gonna be way old-fashioned. RINA - AH NA is such a nice name okay. Must keep the tradition of having "Ah" names before it's gone what! LOL and no way I'm gonna teach CE lessons okay. They'll listen to you cause I'll be at the back of the classroom mixing music! HUI MIN - Yeah! Money is the top most important thing on a must-have list on any barbecues, because you need them to buy charcoal to lit up the fire! :) ARIEL - COCONUT is so evil. First you physically abuse me and then embrace me?! Is this the new Coconut Reverse Psychology Theory? BOON MAY - Aye. I don't know what to say, but I hope your feeling better ya? :D Or else I'm gonna throw bee hoon (bought from Boon Keng) at your face! RACHEL - Why don't have?! OH. I know why already, cause the house full of dog food so no place to keep claypot rice right? I know, I know :P ... - Okay! I will be a man and stop criticising people whom I do not know for the better sake of mankind, for the preventation of the nuclear launches of Korea, for the stoppage of the Iraq war and ultimately for WORLD PEACE! :D EILEEN - MOLESTER. You owe me lots and lots of money. I should put barcodes on different part of my body now. Then fix an ez link on your hand, and when you touch a certain part it goes TEE DEE and deducts the money from your EZ LINK! I suddenly don't want banana squash liao. I want banana milkshake (don't think wrong)! HELLO(: - YOU SOUND SO ASTRID, LOL! I know your deep dark secrets too ;D How about purchasing some of them? Going cheap with 2374234% discounts, best buy! MARCUS - YO MARC. The problem is I'm a Christian, so I can't do that ya? :) Anyway, nice to see you tagging my board! YEXI - It's good exercise for SS papers, for some lame SEXY reason! :D
What a cursed Chinese New Year, I'm back at home so early for the first time in my 15 year old life. Things has gone way down the drain as I have already expected, this time making Leon refusing to converse in fun, laughter, peace and joy with his sister. What a disgrace. As a way of keeping his own eloquence and peace he shall refrain from verbally abusing his low intelligence yet irritating family member otherwise known as my sister, despite of she doing it to her own brother, words like, well, you should know, spitting out of her foul mouth. I cannot help but to say that this tradition (the visiting house thing for Chinese New Year) is going to vanish in our generation as people get intrigued over the usage of gadgets and electronic devices to even give a damn about traditions. And who's the main culprit? Technology. Technological advancements has indeed boosted the living standards of mankind to a higher level but in the context of morals, people has fell. The overwhelming usage of gadgets has caused people to be cold to one another - a fact that you see in your daily life, people listening to their MP3 player even though they are sitting beside a friend, friends taking up one seat by themselves on public buses etc etc. Now don't flame me by saying "Not everyone is like that!". I fully agree that one shan't judge a whole group of people just by observing the behaviour of one of them. Back to the point. The government of Singapore has been pretty concerned over the fact that teens are becoming more and more badly behaved and it aroused the interests of freelance writers to write articles about these teens, trying to find a cause behind all this. Don't look elsewhere. The answer is here. Families are the foundation of society. With more and more usage of technological advancements, family members begin to grow colder to one another which slowly and gradually lead to a somehow or rather broken family. Broken families lead to broken societies. The government tried to solve this by implementing 5-day work week. Sorry my friend, most people use the weekend to cover up for the very stressful activities that are happening in the weekdays - for example in the context of a student like me: relieving myself of stress with entertainment like computer games (don't think sick, okay!). Tell me lah, where got time to even interact with the family in this tightly-packed society of Singapore where the government pushes everyone to strive for economic growth? Everything money, money, money. Talking about this, talk about that, all sum up to money. Education - why are we studying so hard? For money. With education, we qualify for a better job that pays more. With more money, we have a higher standard of living, and this is due to having better technology, which also leads to the disintegration of society as I have already mentioned above. Why does this world always seem to have war here and there? For more money. For better standards of living. Countries expanding their territories in order to gain more resources. And what this results in? Another group of people suffering as a result of these expansions, people with hurt and anger in their hearts, and they emerged as vengeful people - the birth of terrorists. Bomb here bomb there, it's an endless vicious cycle of revenge and killings. All for the sake of -> money -> more technology -> higher standards of living. If we want world peace and people living in harmony and peace, looks like we have to look at the root of why people are killing each other, which is the standard of living for people. Only when everyone has the same high standard of living will there be world peace, but that's just impossible. Oh well, till that is being achieved, Leon would have to learn to put up with his sister. Till then, I pray. Reply to tags: MELSON - Empty vessels :) We both know them very well don't we? Anyway, Tuesday set ah! We go each house for an hour, ngek ngek ngek. EILEEN - That time he scold me just touching his tool okay! As if his tools made of gold like that. Tsk. And okay set I want Banana Squash with chocolate toppings every day because you owe me 800 bucks (and still accumulating for each molestation!) And alamak, of course beautiful, or else how to be pretty boy, you tell me?! RINA - Ah Na, I can't really be bothered about my family, really. And wow Mr Tan life so sad ah, nothing else to talk about, have to talk about his wife every lesson?! Tsk. CE lessons not for him to talk about his wife. Like that I also can teach CE, every week talk about ME. And I give you hong bao 10+ years later okay? :D ARIEL - That sounds damn wrong LOL! Yeah and I'm not in a self-despair-wrist-cutting-head-banging-mood either, in fact, I'm pretty proud at my anger management without hurling vulgarities at my dad :D I still owe you coconuts! WANZHUO - Okay set! I better bring along a stool in case of emergency :P Anyway, did you go for eye enlargement surgery? I know why liao, big eyes can see the ball alignment better right? HUI MIN - It's a very common case in Singapore anyway so it doesn't matter! RACHEL - HEHE. Happy chinese new year to you too! I bet your reunion dinner got claypot rice! BOON MAY - Worst! Like that you cannot balance on your heels then your gonna fall all your way to Boon Lay. CHEE YANG - HOI! Gong xi fa chai to you, even though you already got alot of "chai" already :D Want to eat Siew Mai mou? :) SHAUN - BROTHER! It's a matter of perspective my friend, but no offence though :D Can go your house bai nian or not? (don't go Malaysia ah!)
