About Me

Heh, what can a cynical man write about himself without sounding pseudo intellectual then finally butchering all the finely put words together with apt sarcasm? Guess I should remain unbiased and retain the profile to be as objective as possible.Okay fine. I've lived my fair share around South East Asia before finally settling in Perth, WA for most of my teenage years and finally going through my National Service in Singapore as a fire fighter.Experienced quite alot those 2 years, learning of the dirty work that has to be done to keep citizens happy ontop of the priceless glory of saving a life..all this to pile on the rather...unconventional lifestyle I had in Australia with music, substances and what not.Though I may seem a singular conforming individual just like everyone of you decaying pieces of organic matter....I indeed am ;). Sorry to burst the bubble.But just like every piece of organic matter has it's own characteristic, I say to each his own. And how anybody chooses to analyse me, from my inane typings to my retarded images(or lack thereof), it's up to you.Sit up, shut up and think. Have you done anything in your life that really mattered? That's right, you're riding straight into a brick wall.

My Interests

Music, Philosophy, Religion, Ancient History, Art(all forms), Drugs, Science, Martial Arts, Weaponry, Architecture...

Anyone.

Music:

I listen to EVERYTHING. My music taste consists of mainly metal(black, death, thrash, avantgarde), classical(medieval, renaissance, baroque, classical, romantic, modern, post-modern), jazz(bebop, fusion, free), funk, punk(70s), blues, rap(80s), rock(indie), electronica(ambient, trance, DnB, acid jazz, industrial), world(Chinese, Indian, South East Asian, European folk, Middle Eastern, Native, etc)... List goes on.

I'm getting out of this place soon enough

Just 3 more months and I'm out of here. Whilst it's not so much the place of where I'm at but instead the friends I've made, the experiences I've had serving the "nation". Heh, back home I'll go, to l...

Traffic Accidents

One word of advice. Never ever ever get into one and try to stay away from any form of activity that might get you into one. Stories from paramedics in my firestation and my own experiences have veere...

Blargh

Okay so I haven't exactly updated much, but there's nothing to really say. I lead a pretty boring life, have had probably 1 call in the last few duties and it was a ridiculous one but hey I might as w...

I'm 19

hey, I just turned 19 a few days ago. Okay, so I don't feel any different then again I didn't really expect to. Unlike turning 18 which meant you're a legal adult in Australia, allowed to buy cigarett...

New Rig

My job has been particularly boring, writing a fire incident report that was over a week or more ago. Very tedious job, having to get the pictures developed, type stuff about the fire such as the caus...

Welcome to Changi Fire Station...

Okay, so I thought firefighting in station was gonna be a pretty easy life, and it indeed was until my last 2 duties. 2 big fires late at night. And I don't mean at like 10 or 11 at night, I mean "you...

People ask me...

...If I've ever saved a life in general. Okay maybe I haven't saved a drowning person or scaled down heights to do height rescue or anything. Well not yet at least. But I know how it feels to run into...

Back in Singapore

My one week stay in Perth was well...the same as it was 7 months ago...with no party house and a little more squabbling and hating and bitching and gossiping and blah. Frankly, I think my mates over t...
