Desmond and the Bouncing Up.

2011-12-26T14:41:00.004+08:00

"Aww man, I'm home." Those were the words I said under my breath when I got off the cab and lugged my huge duffel bag back home.I spent a good part of my December being a soldier, and got off just a few days before Christmas. Now, under normal circumstances, I would complain, but really, Decembers are not meant for negativity. Besides, in retrospect, things are usually less intense than we felt

Desmond and the Workaholic Trap.

2011-11-16T11:08:00.006+08:00

With all the madness--school or otherwise--that has been going on recently, I've hardly had the time or motivation to blog. Do I still wish to keep up with blogging on a regular basis? Yes. Do I wish to define 'regular' as once a week? Um, no, thank you...So when this morning turned out to be an early one for me, with some time in between breakfast and lunch, I decided to seize the day and

Desmond and the Wandering Button.

2011-10-04T23:37:00.008+08:00

Yesterday, I had some yam ice-cream, and lost my volume button on my phone. And then at night, I had ice-cream again and realised the next day that I had lost the ear-bud on my earphones. I'm often told that whenever you lose something, it's good to think back to the time you saw it last, and so I did just that. And after my trip down memory lane, I found the common denominator: Le Ice-cream.It

Desmond & Rain.

2011-09-12T13:37:00.005+08:00

I have been waking up the past few mornings to the sound of dripping rain and muffled sunlight, which could only mean one thing: the rainy season is back in town! That is always good because I love Rain!It makes me happy, and it calms me, and it helps me sleep better. When rain drips off the side of the buildings in a repetitive drippety-drop, it creates some sort of chorus as if it were a

Desmond & the Six Words (with the unexpected exhortation).

2011-08-03T23:08:00.003+08:00

The months have quickly zipped by, and it's been nearly a year since I left for Ireland. One year! It honestly feels like a while ago that I was fretting over flights, and making friends, and the coats and clothes I would bring overseas. And now all that has come and gone. Wow.It's still too early to make that end-of-year-I've-accomplished-so-much/little speech, but whenever you do look back and

Desmond and the Slight Insomia Problem.

2011-07-07T06:32:00.003+08:00

I woke up early today on account of my slight insomia problem, and although it has yet to be clinically proven, here I am, 640am, wide awake after coming back from a run.When I left at 530am, I thought I would have the world to myself, but I was mistaken; 530am belongs to the older generation. It is surprising to see so many (elderly) people up, running, and socialising this early in the day,

2011-05-18T22:30:00.000+08:00

YIPPEE! Exams are out! I'm not even going to talk about how I've felt about this semester, because censorship is important on the internet, but let's just say, I'm ready for the fun to begin.And while I understand the message of this song isn't really about sleeping in and being a bummer, I willingly choose to deceive myself and pretend it is: I don't want to leave my bed for at least a few days!

Desmond and the Yippee Much.

2011-04-30T13:13:00.006+08:00

The last week of classes ended this week, and I have to say, time really flies! I've been back for nearly 3 months now, and the memory of Ireland switches constantly from oh-so-long-ago, to just-yesterday; it's schizophrenic memory. I miss it, but strangely not in all the parts that I thought I would.In any case, this will not be an entry about Ireland, 'cause Lord knows I have blogged a whole

Desmond and the Rain-running.

2011-04-15T18:51:00.004+08:00

Today I ran in the rain and got really wet. There was water dripping off my hair, my pants were soaked, and even though I was carrying two bags of groceries, all I could do was grin and smile to myself because it's been a while since I've felt this happy. I need to find the courage to play in the rain some day soon. And I need someone who's willing to be courageous with me. Send in your CVs,

2011-04-10T00:02:00.003+08:00

I've tried for the past few days to write an entry about playlists comprised of angry songs, but I couldn't. Only now do I realise the poetic sentiment in that--composing this entry has been as difficult as making my angry playlist!My inability to find enough songs to last an angry half hour does not mean I'm not an angry person though. It just means, between my ipod library and my taste in music

2011-03-29T18:01:00.006+08:00

It's been so warm the past few days and in the sweltering heat, I've made a new friend that just won't leave me alone. Yes, the still, hot air is sticking to me like a plague. I can feel it on my skin, and in my face, and in my room.I'm not happy--not happy at all. And I can't even summon my latent-violent tendencies to beat the hot air to a pulp. That would be like chasing the wind, which is

I miss Ireland so much, and what better day than St Paddy's to blog it, right?Happy St Patrick's Day All! And even though I wish I could be there in Ireland today, I'm just thankful that I ever got to go at all. Thanks, God. You really are the best.

Desmond and the Inability to Post a Cat Picture.

2011-03-08T11:48:00.007+08:00

Between the puppy-eyed look of a dog and the haughty arrogance of a Queen Mother Cat who hasn't got time or need for you, we'd almost always pick the dog. At least I would. And I boil it down to my preference for affectionate creatures. Who doesn't love someone or something that loves them back? And with those puppy-dog eyes? Oh how my heart melts!And then the infinitely adorable canine licks up

Bobby Winturburg wandered into the wilderness of the night and found out--the hard way--that bears have no sewage system. Needless to say, he'll be finding some other way than solitary walks in bear-infested woods to relieve his stress. I suggest dear Wintur-B tries blogging, as I will again.

Life is an infinitely strange affair. You meet foreign people on foreign buses in foreign lands, and they teach you the same life lessons your parents taught you: learn to be peacemakers, learn to be accepting.I met an ex-war-journalist on the bus in Berlin the other day and he offered me help with directions. Of course I knew where I was going, but I'm not above asking for directions, and so we

Well, at least that's how it must have seemed, because for the first time in a few years, Repeatedly's December saw no worrying amount of Christmas blogging with Irishy Photos and snow and ice and whatnot.Please do not worry, World.

It's been a long while since I've blogged. One month actually! So much happens in a month--so much happens that one or two paragraphs never quite cover what you have to say.Plus, what do you really have to say anyways? People say, "bring on the photos, and spare me the words!", but you know in your heart of hearts, no photo could ever represent fully your experience, no photo could repeat the

Desmond the True Fact.

2010-10-15T20:00:00.003+08:00

Everyday Ireland grows a little more on me. True fact.I love how quiet it gets at night, and how you can get hellos just by walking down the street. I love when it gets foggy and I embarrass myself by thinking there's a fire. I love that I can't tell when the traffic lights turn. I love seeing well-behaved dogs walking by with their well-behaved owners. I love that I can exhale and produce mist.

Desmond and the Spider Convention.

2010-09-30T18:16:00.003+08:00

Where do spiders go to die? My house, I'd say. There are so many of them here it's like I've bumbled none-the-wiser into Ireland during their Annual Spiders' Convention: Charlotte -- Webbed or Webber?And naturally, the elitist in me feels a great need to mark my boundaries. But spiders don't respond to pee-demarcations as dogs do. And unfortunately for me, my fight or flight instinct varies

Life is unexpected, as long-time residents of this lovely blue-green marble know it to be. Yes, we humans understand that there are places on earth where gravity seemingly fails, places where the laws of physics become mere echoes of themselves (read: Disneyland); places where pain turns to masochistic joy, where we guard un-gold-like treasure with the barbarity of pirates.Yes.

Ireland the Country has been great. Emphasis on the 'R' for that Scottish ring to the word. Why Scottish? Because it's close enough. I experienced me first real Irish rainy day today, and it's not at all bad. I love it. I love grey clouds, and rainy days. Of course, I am also too busy living to get the photos off my camera into the laptop. You would think I have more time to do all these, but

Hello World. You know how things can sometimes be so surreal? Like being told life is about being in a teacup--which is insane--and then finally having it happen to you at the carnival, beside your neice, and her screaming friends? Teacup rides are real my friend, teacup rides are very real.And so are experiences. Real, and surreal. Like finally being in Ireland. Yes, I'm here, and it feels

But I thought I should write, because I feel obligated to this blog. Nearly six years and counting.A lot changes in six years. Heck, a lot changes in a month. And a lot will change in less than a fortnight's time. But for now, I'll

Alrighto world, here's a little advertisement (for the three of you who still visit this blog). My friend has opened a blogshop selling polo tees and dress shirts for guys. Which makes roughly half the population of the world their demographic. So if you are part of that Half, or know someone from that Half, you should take note. Shop sells imported tees, from brands like Ralph Lauren and Lacoste

There you have it. The Picture with four words that speaks a thousand words. I can't believe I watched the entire match, except for that few minutes during which the goal was scored. (No one coerced me into spectator-ship). Of course I feel like going on a whine-fest about how I missed the goal, but when I consider how sucky the Dutch must be feeling right now, I thank God for an innate tendency

2010-06-03T16:49:00.006+08:00

Alright, I'll admit it. Blogger is boring me. And not because it's boring per se -- it's because I'm incredibly and amazingly lazy, and my whole blogging process is actually more laborious than it seems. My, my. The photo-surfing alone required to supplement blog entries is insane. And since it is neither Christmas nor December, the incentive (and the search words to use) dips to nearly zero.Not

2010-05-22T10:52:00.005+08:00

So playlist has stopped working, and apparently so has Keating's marriage.ARGH. WHY DOES EVERYTHING HAPPEN TO ME!?(Not entirely certain what the seperation is about, but I've got to say, I kinda feel he's a jerk right now. Of course, it doesn't concern me, so I'll just shut it for now. Happy weekend, World!)

I know I should have blogged a long time ago when my exams actually ended, but I also should have bought a carton of milk days ago, and I haven't. Such is the cruelty of laziness. Or if you (I) prefer, the practicality of the world. You see, my urge to blog was sky-high during my exams because I needed to distract myself from studying, and still seem to be doing 'something'. Of course, now that

Looks like they won't be happy no more.And so it is with the fakest possible tone I can manage that I say, "Exams, here we come".(This Individual is trying to get back into his blogger groove.

2010-04-01T10:02:00.004+08:00

I realised I have been reduced to blogging about holidays (even the lesser ones), but such is the reality of blogdom: bloggers must get bored and give up blogging for months at a time. And their (non-)readers must be subjected to boring, and unimportant filler.So here's the obligatory well-wishes for today: Happy April Fool's!(Good Friday and Easter are coming up really soon. Just saying.)

It has been very many hours and very many days, and I can't help but wonder if self-professed 'Regularly-Updated' blogs were really meant to function in this irregular manner. Probably not.I blame the heat you know. Something about the humidity and the sweaty palms (and consequentially, sweaty keyboard) really puts me off blogging and thinking in general. And spare me the "we need the heat to

I've always thought pineapple tarts to be the de facto poster boy of the Chinese New Year. And for good reason too. I mean, topping yourself with a pineapple filling and then diving head-first into the oven? Pure genius and - dare I say it - nerves of steel!And yes, while it's true the other goodies go through the fire too, I'm going to give Pineapple Tarts the benefit of the doubt. What can I

We have Shrimp and Vinegar; Pizza and Green Tea. Not that all

Desmond and Blogging's Sake.

2010-01-30T21:23:00.004+08:00

There's been a slight struggle to blog these past few days. Perhaps writing-me has expended all his blog-worthy topics. Or maybe it's just that thing with me and laziness. Whatever it is, I'm not here to judge, least of all myself.So let's just leave it at that: I'm blogging for blogging's sake.Please don't judge me.

2010-01-19T19:06:00.004+08:00

So much to say, so little motivation to; World, I am a lazy, lazy bum -- at least with respect to blogging.

2010-01-12T20:12:00.004+08:00

I thought I'd better squeeze in one last incoherent ramble before my holidays bow out for the next few months. It's sad, yes -- as the end of vacations always are -- and it's in these moments when the end draws nigh that the fear of loss and the departure of consistency grips you the hardest.When you're left feeling choked and suffocated, your instinct then works two ways: it either attempts to

2010-01-06T10:37:00.008+08:00

*Possible Spoilers Ahead.*I watched Avatar (in 3D!) yesterday, as my first movie of the year, and I really liked it. Then when I got home, I found Notting Hill playing on HBO, and that was bloody brilliant too, as Hugh Grant might say.I must admit I've never watched Notting Hill in its entirety. Yesterday's viewing was the closest to the full thing. And it was predictable, and sweet, and a little

I don't normally fancy dance music, and I have a certain disdain for remixes, but this is really rather nifty. Some guy created a mashup of the top 25 songs of 2009, and it's a pretty catchy result.Still can't believe Christmas is over and it's another twelve months to go, but regardless, Happy New Year!!

Perhaps the world has been bored to tears by my incessant Irishing, Keating, Westlifing and Wet Weathering, but I have this to say: tough.Honestly, I can't say for sure what I will blog about in the coming year but don't count on these disappearing all too soon!Besides, if you think about it, the jump between years lies merely between

I hope Christmas is progressing well for you World! I had an early morning, and I think that's the best, because now my Christmas seems infinitely long (roughly four more hours to go).Also, I've just had a strangely Chinese Christmas dinner, in every sense of the phrase, but that's fine, because I also had Christmas carols playing in the background.Here's to a merry four hours more!

A couple of weeks ago, I declared the festive spirit would peak just before Christmas, and that, in my own words, was "splendid for me".But back in the Here and Now, I regret my statement. Christmas celebrations came too soon and now I feel post-boxing-day, even though we're barely at Christmas Eve! I say, that's what you get for judging a book by its festive cheer -- A nice serving of humble pie

2009-12-14T21:24:00.004+08:00

Christmas always stirs a strange mix of feelings in me: one part nostalgia, with nine parts homesickness. Which is strange, because I'm neither overseas nor a father working overtime with eight children waiting at home.But it happens.And when it does, one plays Buble's Home.(He knows Christmas feelings are very real, so this Individual sends his love to people who are far from home this year.

2009-12-09T18:57:00.011+08:00

I happened on a Yahoo!question today which reminded me of something I blogged nearly a year ago. Back then, I ended off by voicing my irritation at the use of 'Xmas' instead of 'Christmas'. Some friends came up to me after and offered the explanation of the 'X'.According to them, 'X' is a substitute for 'Christ' -- the idea being to cut Christ out of a supposedly Christian holiday. That sounded

I realised that today is the last day of November and in a last ditch attempt to round me up some monthly figures, I'm blogging on the eve of my exam. One might wonder at the nerve I must have to even dare attempt this, but really, 'Courage' and 'Esteem' have little to do with it.Instead, I will borrow loosely from the Industrial Revolution and call my seeming disregard for my papers a 'Steam

Today was uncannily windy. I wonder why it was. Perhaps a butterfly was flapping its wings somewhere in Wisconsin. Or maybe brown bears ate wild honey and that sent the bees swarming south. I couldn't tell either way. I wasn't there.Today was uncannily windy. And I was here. I had to be. I wasn't there you see. The pages of my book were flipping, and for

You know Christmas is coming when these winter-ish albums start hitting the stores. It gets me all excited! Also? It's Ronan Keating! It's like a wonderful festive mix of my favourite things: Christmas, Keating and Ireland. The Christmas cheer is surely here!(This Individual thinks Keating sounds more seasoned than ever. The worn, raspy voice works well in a holiday time when people sit by

I'm now in relaxi-mood, with my essay finally over and done with. My beloved Irish lecturer has it, and I'm pretty certain that if he had a blog, somewhere in the vastness of cyberspace... he wouldn't be making a big deal of it, as I have.But I think I'm allowed my neurotic little rants and google searches. Heck, even a little Irish photosurfing is fine! One must consider the proverbial oil that

I took my glasses off in class yesterday, and gave me Irish Professor (the less fun of the two) a face lift. Five years gone, just like that.Yes, I'm generous that way. I give perfect strangers face lifts and hair implants. Glasses on -they've got eye bags and bad nose jobs. Glasses off and - BAM!

Yippee! It's a rainy morning that looks set to carry on to the afternoon! (Edit: So it stopped raining. I never professed to be a meteorologist.)And there's more to my weather-incited bliss. Last night, I found out that my Irish tutor extended the dateline for my essay submission. Again.How much do I love the Irish?!(This Individual must confess to a deliberate oversight of the nationality of his
