I'm finally updating. Rejoice, readers of Okaycan.

AN UPDATE!!!!

Eh first I'm gonna apologise or as Seraph from The Matrix puts it, "First, I must APOROGISE". Anyway, sorry to everyone who's been constantly checking this blog waiting for updates. If no one actually constantly checked this page looking for updates then ignore the above, and I'll just proceed to emo one corner.

ANYWAY. Sorry for not updating for 4 months; to reward you loyal readers for your patience, here iz kittehs. Or more specifically, the itteh bitteh kitteh committeh:

Yes I am a cat person.

I am currently blogging because I am actually down with the flu which, ironically, helps me focus. Because my ears get blocked and I can't really hear most things. So it's very peacefully quiet. I like it, but I don't like getting my ass kicked by this stupid flu, so I'm gonna blog while I can and get rid of this flu asap.

For lack of a proper blog topic I'll just update you guys on what I've been doing the past few months.

In January I found a job working for High Achievers. They do camps for schools. I'm not sure how much I'm allowed to tell people about the job so what I'll say is I didn't like it. Some people find it meaningful and I guess if you do then good for you. But I found it unnecessarily stressful and I gave up after ONE camp (yes, I'm a quitter. Sue me). Furthermore, this camp has further convinced me that kids are the spawn of the devil. Annoying little buggers.

Just look at those evil, evil eyes.

For more details on why I didn't like it feel free to contact me personally and get ready for a rant.

At the end of January having decided to not do any more camps, I began sourcing for a different job. Sidetrack: Around this period I started playing Dungeons & Dragons with a small group of friends, which I'll say has been awesome so far. Yes, I'm a geek. Surprise.

Shock and horror.

Back on topic: so anyway, I was running around buying stuff for my D&D games (dice, sexdolls stuff), and I eventually went down to Paradigm Infinitum to get my dice and sexdolls stuff, and I happened to ask if they had any job openings, and turns out they did. So I've been working there since then. We sell board games/card games and stuff. Do drop by one of our outlets and buy stuff visit! I'll be there(there being the Fusionopolis outlet at One-north MRT) until 30th April, which is my last day, after which I shall lepak until I have to go serve this great nation.

In March I realised that I've been spending too much time sitting around doing nothing so I decided to be productive. I'll train once a week, and practice drumming once a week(neither of which are nearly enough), which leaves me with 1 more day to rest and recover, while I work 4 days. At first I got a lot of shit done, but after awhile the repetition started to wear me down. Did I mention I hate routines? Probably gonna hate the army but meh. 

And not a two-shit-flying-fuck was given.

Mostly because I have no choice anyway. So good thing ventures people have been planning regular outings and stuff, which disrupts my training totally, but it breaks the monotony and for that I am grateful. (That's a shout out guys. I don't know if I'm popular enough to give shout outs. Does one have to be popular to give shout outs? How popular do you have to be before you're qualified to give shout outs? Why do I love long rambling paragraphs in parentheses? Why am I being meta?)

So yes, that has been the past 4 months of my life. Yeah. I spent 4 months doing the same things over and over again. Judge me why don't you.

Haters gonna hate

At this point I would like to apologise APOROGISE to everyone with a slow internet connection because I've been spamming gifs. No, I'm not gonna remove any gifs because you're too poor to get broadband.

Now, as a reward for slogging through this somewhat lengthy post, this funny african dude:

He's absolutely hilarious. Watch and subscribe, people.

And now, more content! So far every time I've been sick I've taken a nap at some point simply because I was feeling like shit, and every time that happened I've had some sort of dream/hallucination. I'm not sure which it is because I feel awake but it's totally wacky. The first instance I remember is when I had a headache/fever last year, and I saw lines and circular nodes all over the room. To aid in visualisation, here's a picture:

Imagine diagram B, but with a lot more lines and with the lines extending past the nodes. It was kinda weird. I remember that it meant something but I couldn't remember what it was when I woke up. Like I said, weird. Another weird thing was that I could actually see these lines and nodes from different angles (I'm not sure how, which I guess would suggest I was actually asleep and dreaming) and if you'll look the circles there appear to be 2-D. Now, if you look at a 2-D object from the side, it's flat, so it looks like a line. But the circular nodes in my dream/hallucination actually looked like circles from every angle.

Today while I was falling asleep after getting kicked around by my flu all day, it was almost entirely quiet because of my awesomely blocked ears (which are still kind of blocked, which sucks) and as I was falling asleep I heard like the most awesome melody. It involved one violin and a female voice. This would be an awesome story if I remembered what it was (and would probably be more believable) but I cannot recall that melody now, only that it was awesome. See I would totally be an awesome musician if I could recall stuff like that. And if I actually had any musical knowledge. MEH.

Error 404: Fucks not found. Unable to give a fuck.

Now at this point you're probably saying, "TC, that's totally weird of you." (or not, since I suppose most people don't have imaginary conversations with other people by themselves......or DO THEY? DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNN. Let me know. And look here I go with the rambling passages in parentheses again. I realise this isn't helping. Huh. Parentheses appear to be a real issue. THEY'RE TAKING OVER THE WORLD AND WE DON'T EVEN KNOW IT). And I'll admit that the above does sound a bit strange. However, I am going to conveniently deflect any further thought from this topic by embedding another Maximbady(that's the african dude up there ^) video.

He's shouting in that video so turn down your volume a little.

Anyway, this would probably be my last post for a little while, since I doubt I'll find the focus and content to write another post before 9th May (my enlistment day) and after that I doubt I'll have the time/energy to be writing posts, at least until POP, so don't expect any posts until July I guess. Don't miss me while I'm gone, but in case you do here's a kitteh to keep you company:

And I suppose that is all for now. Wish me luck.

P.S. My blog posts have titles now! 

TITLED POSTS!!!!!!

Unfortunately they're just the date the post was written on cos I can't be arsed to think of proper titles, especially not when I'm sneezing every 4 seconds. See you guys in 3 months.
