It's Not Much Of A Weekend If You Still Have to Wake up Early.

I know I haven't been updating lately.
The truth is, i haven't been chugging my camera along for every trip.
Which obviously means no post.
No pics = no post.
But anyway i brought my camera out today.
Even if it was a while, i still got a few pics.

So anyway, the days been really good these past few days.
Except for a few happenings.
But mostly its all good.
So its a Saturday today. And I'm kinda stuck at home.
Sad huh?
Speaking of which, i just started doing something i stopped a long time ago.
I'm watching TV again.

And don't mind this but this is for a girl.
I wrote it to express my feelings to her.

Your hair is more beautiful than all the hair ads i've seen.
For it bend and curls even without the wind.
Your face cheers me up when I'm down.
For you look worst when you smile then when you frown.
You're the best thing i've ever seen.
Coz you're the only chick that reminds me of Wolverine.

Ms. Khatijah. LOL.

Ok here i officially start.

Noticed the sky when i was in my room.
If you are wondering this was taken from my bedroom window.
I usually stare out the window when i'm bored.
Sometimes i see things like shooting stars and pokemon shaped clouds.
Oh and i once saw a UFO too.
Not sure if it was one though.
Lately i been feeling like i'm living in a dirty fishtank.
They hung this green net like thingy outside my place.
This causes a green hue to engulf my living room making it look like im in algae infested waters.
I took this as i went out. I found it really weird though.
There were these wheelbarrows but no one.
And i really mean it, no one at all.
I actually thought of stealing the wheelbarrow but the inner me said,
"Where you gonna keep it and what are you gonna do with it Stupid?!".
I replied, " I believe you won this argument Inner Me."
I met up with Shahir to get something to drink and slacked for bit.
We went to this humongous clock shop.
Lotsa clocks there reminding you the time.
Sure sucks if you work there and you came to work late.
The whole day was comprised of me and Sha walking around placing to see old things with our new-found attention for details.
Like for example, this guy was holding a Kuda Kepang thingy.
"I find Kuda Kepang Scary," Shahir told me.
"Honestly, I find it..Stupid." I explained to him.
We then turned and looked at the guy again for a whole three seconds.
"You know what, I take my word back. It is indeed stupid" Shahir added.
The whole trip was about walking around Khatib to go to places we knew existed but never actually went to.
So this was one of them.
We call this place, The Alley Of Death.
Okay! We didnt call it that.
I made that up.
You can't actually see it that clearly in this pic.
But this is the first ever person i ever seen in my 17+ years of living that jogs on the hills.
Yeah now you can see it.
He jogs at the hills.
Shahir deduced that when you run on the treadmill, there is the inclination function.
Well this is exactly the same thing, only more natural.
This is the Garden at Khatib that no one goes to.
Seriously. A Failed project by the HDB.
I was too lazy to find a dustbin so i threw my bubble tea in the gutter.
Shahir then explained to me that when it rained, the water was gonna wash my cup away deeper into the gutter and cause a clogging and Singapore will then be flooded just like how it was like in the movie 2012. I replied, " Nevermind. Leave it to the Chinese to build an Ark"
This is a Visual Representation of how Rebellious me and Sha are.
We threw the cup in front of a sign that said No Littering.
We used the idea of paradoxes to visually connect to the minds of the Audience.
*i know what you are thinking. FUCKING CHIM SIA*
It's a Fire Hydrant!!!
With 4-D number!!
AHhhhhhHHhhhHhH..
Go Buy now!
Another one of the HDB initiatives.
A sheltered walkway that seems relatively familiar to the Shaolin Monk Temples in China.
"Leave it to the Chinese..." said Shahir.
"They'll build an Ark.." I continued.
I saw this cage/barbecue like thingy and said,
" You know you're broke when you use a cage as a grill for barbecue"
Shahir then explained to me that this used to be a Chinchilla Cage.
But someone set it on fire burning the Chinchilla with it.
And the family kept it as a remembrance.
A remembrance of how Barbecued Chinchilla tasted like.
I found this bottles lining up peculiar and took a shot of it.
Up to this point of time, we were taking so many shots of the public that
some people actually thought we were like undercover NEA agents.
*I wanted to use the word 'workers' but 'agents' sounded way cooler*
**take this for an example. Would you rather be a Secret Agent or a Secret Worker?**
Saw this pile of Green Shit on the grass.
It looked like thorns.
It felt like thorns.
There were thorns on it.
So me and Shahir shouted, " We hereby claim that this is a SEAWEED!"
So we zoomed into the Seaweed.
And Zoomed again we did.
And then we decided to take the whole picture.
And OMG! did you noticed.

There was a handphone on the ground!
Weren't so attentive were you.
If you did not noticed that, you would probably failed your math O level papers.
Coz you weren't attentive.Ok i was joking.
There it is again.
Like showroom like that huh.
The New Nokia 10 megapixel phone with in-built water bottle.
Now that was random.
OH LOOK!!!!
Another 4-D number for your Viewing Pleasures!!!
GO AND BUY!!
OR...
GO DIE!
This, my friends, are the places all your shit goes to.
Sad but true. But don't worry.
This is like Heaven for Shits.
Flowers on the Floor.
No particular reason why i took this.
Just wanted to share it with you guys.
3 sad lonely flowers on the floor.
They probably got Disowned by their tree parents.
Sad sad sad sad individual.
And OMG! there was a phone there too.
It was in the previous shot too.
If you didn't see it before.
You probably just failed your A level Maths.
The New Nokia 12.8 Megapixel Phone with In-built Pokedex and Master ball.

We just kept walking around Yishun St 81.
Thats where i live.
Its not that glamorous but i like it.
Do you see it?
Crop circles!!!
"Yeah, crop circle made by bangla on wheels" Sha added.
"And by the holy name of giant yellow flaming salamanders, LOOK AT THAT!"
"Look at what?"
"That building has a cleavage!"
"Now that's Sexy!"
This reminded me of L4D.
You know those arrows that lead you to the safe house.
If you never played L4D before and have no idea what L4D is,
Its time to get out from under that rock and look around.
Yes the War is Over. You don't have to seek refuge for so long.
The new building that was built not too long ago.
Its still in the construction stage but its looking good already.
"It's probably a showroom" Shahir said.
"Showroom for the new condo that is gonna be built here huh" I asked.
"Nope. A showroom for Big Yellow Furry Unicorns" He answered.
"Now that makes sense. I wished i was as clever as you" I then added.
Mr. Construction worker wakes up from Afternoon Nap.
Fee Fi Fo Fum! He says.
And on the way home we saw a terrorist!!
AHHHH!! Suspicious article.
Big bag = bomb!
AHHHHHH!!!
They were gonna bomb the stadium i guess.
And this is Optimus Prime.
This is the hill that we passed earlier.
While walking back, guess who we saw..
It's Mr. Jog-On-the-Hills Guy!
Such a dedicated guy.
Very disciplined to his routine of jogging up the hills.
We felt like Giants.
We actually went up the HDB to just look at the clouds which was turning gray.
We really felt like Giants.
And then I realized that i can see my room from where i was standing.
We were kinda stalking my room.
Guess which one of this is my room.
We slacked finally at Khatib Central till it goes dark.
And i really mean it.
I have picture evidence.
Bright.
Darker then before.
Darkest!
But the sky was still nice though.
That have to be one of the things me and Shahir enjoy most.
Looking at clouds and then telling each other what stupid shits we see in them.


I'm Jamal.
Let's spend out last days as children.
With your hands in mine.
