el presto....
Its a sunny Sunday afternoon like how all Sundays should be, memories of the campfire still fresh after a long night's sleep, although being my first, i feel as if i've been to a thousand campfires already.
Arrived at school finding scores of uniformed bodies lingering all over the bus stop as i made my way to the nearest familiar crowd, initially being the only one in incomplete prefect's uniform (without the blazer), the sense of worriedness was slowly filling me up like a jug, until i caught eye of ming han making his way towards me, informing me that we only needed one more prefect to be there till we're granted in.. and so we waited from 7.10 to 7.45 for ironically, our prefectorial board adviser's daughter, and now i wonder who was the one stressing on how punctuality should be embedded into the daylights of every living prefect, empty talk i suppose..
The setting of the campfire wasn't something ive never seen before, but it was the friendly-ness and the bubbly attitudes of the scouts that caught my attention most, making me feel even more at home was the fact that it was smk tmn sea who was hosting it, minus the "politics", minus the inside power-toppling feuds, our very own scouts troops should deserve a BIG hand, although im only exposed to the works of our school scouts only, not mentioning others out there, they did a pretty good job! A makeshift timber bridge was constructed after the registering booth to welcome visitors into a perimetered space filled with red plastic school chairs and a joyfully decorated stage (a.k.a astaka), cleverly and catchily themed "30 years behind, lightyears ahead"
The night's programme was very much listed on the itenary given, as usual, the typical Malaysian way of speeches, pelvic-thrusting, jiggly bengal beat dances, and a few ice-breaking games before stopping for a 20 minute breath-catch, i was lucky to be having a camera, i mean, what's the point of attending something without managing to capture it for further keeps, which probably explains my used memory of a 103 pictures taken... (about 50+ deleted... :p)
After the break, we were connected again to a sketch by andrew and ah beng, playing the apprentices of the infamous Master Soda, notably named themselves Master Cannot-Be and Master Seawater, "lightsabre"-actions are aplenty with a few sarcastic lines here and there, in the end, we all learned that by losing our temper easily, we'll be laughed at by a three headed monster.. as the narrator clearly states.
The night rapped up with another hip-swinging, pelvic thrusting, belly shaking dance, pretty intimidating i reckon, i checked my watch and it read 11.23p.m, so i called home for transport, only to be greeted by mum who could say nothing else but "wahh, dont wanna come home arh?" come on mum! compared to lynn, im about 2 and a half hours earlier than the average time she comes home.. speaking about my sister, i was practically counting the times she mumbled "stupid" uncomprehensively to herself while driving on the LDP, everytime someone swerves into her lane, be it 10m ahead, 20m or even 30m! at last, it all totalled to a whopping 16 "stupid"s in less than half an hour.. i guess the "rude-impatient-malaysian" campaign was proving a fact after all...
and today, i pampered myself with 3 Cheers for Sweet Revenge from My Chemical Romance.....
PEACE!

FINALLY!! i got back to training this morning after 2 months of couch-potato-ing and munching on junk food! it wasnt easy to be jogging and running again after my 2 months of bumming therefore spurns me to entitle my training come back as "Eu Jinn's Road To Recovery", hell yeah, its the road to recovery from a fat slug to a 22 secon' clocker for 200m!! and im not kidding! so neither should any of you!...
as fast as time flies, its less than one more week to the first day of the new term, and no disrespect to all ya school-love-ers and geeks out there, but school is as good as a pizza washed down a toilet-bowl! and oh can you imagine? after this holiday of 11 am wake up calls, back to the 6.30am nagging of mums and dads... holy, id rather have Paris Hilton asking me out on a date!
So once again, i reckon i have spent my work pay in a really really convincing way, yes, i bought AMERICAN IDIOT!! ive been eyeing on it ever since it was released, but i guess this time i had the extra $$$ to get it, so, cheers to ya Green Day fans out there, and oh of course, to Green Day themselves for creating this anti-american governement piece of sweet sweet music...
"The representative of California has the floor,
Zieg Heil to the president gasman,
Bombs away is your punishment,
Pulverize the eiffel towers,
Who criticize your government,
Bang Bang goes the broken glass,
Kill all the fags that dont agree,
Trials by fire setting fire,
Is not a way that's meant for me!!
Just cause, just cause we're outlaws!"
- Short anti-US piece of Green Day's Holiday
Take me away to the next concert please? anyone?
Cheers...

30th and 31st May 2005, Chia Eu Jinn learnt a valuble lesson: "Money doesnt come easily"
Sunday afternoon, 29th May, just as i was planning my week to keep me all up and active so i wont fall into the abyss of being a couch potato, fei came calling for a job offer, seems that his dad who is the owner of Canvas Art in Tmn Tun staged up an exhibition in the National Art Gallery entitled Dirgahayu, basicly, it was a huge archive of photos of the sultans and the history of the states still ruled by sultans, so the next morning, 4 of us who turned up to help(or is it just the alluring salary of RM70 a day)... hmm.. we'll never know.. we were then briefed about what to and what not to do in the National Art Gallery, our "seems simple but f*cking hard" task of taking down, wrapping and transporting an approximate number of 1000+ photos with rough wood frames measuring a scary 1m x 1m.. and oh of course, our 30 minute lunch break...
i guess apart from running and jumping and banging ourselves into flimsy walls in the gallery, the more memorable thing of the whole thing was the lunch break, we would go into this posh, artistic cafe located under the gallery, with its store-room turned toilet and whacky acrylic paintings on canvas hung on the walls all over.. the food, thankfully, are all reasonably priced so we would order 2 servings each with some finger food in the middle and hearing the waitress go "wah! kamu makan sarapan pagi atau tengah hari??" or "wah! order lagi!!?" well i guess the food was more enjoyable having the cashier giggling at every order you make...
our job went incomplete the first day over, so instead of a one-day job, it strecthed to the next day, little did we know that we will be getting paid another RM70 for the 2nd day's work.. and the entitlement of another lunch break! so in the end, we got back to fei's dad's office and recieved our pay of RM120 (RM20 has been deducted for lunch of the 1st day), all i can say is that fei's parents are 2 very very lovely people having providing us RM 10 for transport home and RM 30 for mamak after work.. gee thanks feixiang and his parents for giving me this opportunity to realize how hard it is to be earning cash.. oh and if ya parents need anymore help fei, dun hesitate to ask..!
so, while i was working my ass off earning cold hard cash, some of the other fellas were spending dough out there, and today, i spent a quarter of my pay on Audioslave's new album.. and i reckon its well worth it...
I can quite say, today's outing to the cinema was one of the most suspenseful ones ive ever had.. jun wei purchased House of Wax tickets for 10 of us, knowing it was a 18 plus movie, we decided to go in pairs to make things less obvious, so sanjay and sherri got in, then eric and ee jin, then fei and leely, then it was jun wei and ben's turn, according to ben's words:" jun wei la.. go show the tickets faced up! damn obvious summore!!... i have a strong feeling that it might be ben's "NOT 18" look which resulted to the cinema bouncers asking us for their ic s.. in other words, denied entry.. and the "best" they could do is to run towards me and sue zan with the cinema bouncers still watching they're every move.. the authorities kindly got our tickets changed to Star Wars, and after getting pass the bouncer guys, the plan was obvious, the other 3 ran towards cinema 3 which was the oppostie side of cinema 7 where Star Wars was playing... and me, noticing one bouncer guy was tailing us, i walked towards cinema 7 and found myself a seat to catch my breath.. i then called eric to inform me on the movements of the cinema bouncers who are hot on the trails of the 4 of us, slowly and deftly, i crept into cinema 3 and sat on the first empty chair i found, constantly looking over my back to see if any of the bouncers came in with a torchlight, if they did, i was dead meat.. i was more relieved thinking that the other guys were on the other end of the cinema, and i was on my own, which would be easier for me to get out fast after the show.. when suddenly sanjay turned around from the front seat going :"jinn, jinn, is that u?.. come sit beside us laaa" and then i peeked over sanjay and i saw the whole gang sitting directly in front of me.. =.=" no doubt after the show, i was the first to leave, noticing a cinema bouncer standing outside the cinema when everyone was pouring out.. i pretended to be observing the infrastructure of the wall.. well, i can gladly tell you it all went well, my experience of a cat and mouse game...
at least i spent my last 2 days earning cash instead of lazing around at home and rooting myself on the computer chair in front of the screen, and from my point of view, i throughly deserve the outing today to help me unwind after a hard 2 days work, watching Paris Hilton getting impaled by a lunatic mass murderer IS amusing after all!!...
*owh and according to someone's indirect comment, i understand i have a bad sense of fashion..
