christian bale can growl really well.
——————-
batman today after an incredibly slack workday; no officers in camp, we all had to take half day off but i refused, so i went to padang to help out with national day preparations AND GOT OFF AT TWO THIRTY PM. which is like, cheers mate. at any rate, christopher nolan did an incredible job with the movie, even though there were several changes; bruce wayne did not just learn from ra’al ghul, he did so from many different sources. and he is called the detective for a reason, because he learnt the art of investigating and intuition too, but these weren’t documented. nonetheless, it was a brilliant show.
today, i learnt that soulseek can download songs really really fast and vivienne, i have joyride’s beautiful!

yesterday a kitten was nearly killed in camp and i almost cried. i mean, i don’t understand why i did that because i’m not even particularly close to it; it ignores me and shies away from me whenever i go close to it but then if you think about it it’s only 2 months old and it’s still so young and innocent and it is a life nonetheless and i have never seen a mammal killed before my eyes before and i never ever really liked death and then maybe you did understand why. at any rate, despite coughing out an enormous quantity of blood from a stepped-upon collarbone my sergeant brought it back to camp today alive.
maybe the adage is true, a cat does have nine lives.

there’s too much sadness and despair these days and it has always been the same old things, the lovelessess, the absence of a future education and i don’t know what to do, to cry or just to end it all. being alone is best, and there are times i do not want to step out of my house because there is too much probability that when you do you will be reminded of things.

it is two fifty in the morning and it is going to rain, which is something that should be celebrated because rain is something we don’t get enough of these days. it should rain more often! because rain is tranquil and melancholic and soothing and romantic altogether at the same time and we should just dance and sing in it with jazz in the background.
———————-
we celebrated vivienne’s birthday today and some things never change. bernia’s as stressed out as ever, wenyu still plays the piano, kox bullies me and pak has to retake his a levels (how self deprecating). and jac is still jac and we are all photo whores; come back fasterly ms jesley chua! then we can all mahjong.

from sharlene again; when have you ever sent me bad songs!
The Atlantic was born today, and I’ll tell you how
The clouds above opened up and let it out
I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere
when the water filled every hole
And thousands upon thousands made an ocean
making islands where no islands should go (oh no…)
Most people were overjoyed; they took to their boats
I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat
The rhythm of my footsteps crossing flatlands to your
door have been silenced forevermore
And the distance is quite simply much to far for me to row;
it seems farther than ever before (oh no…)
I need you so much closer…
So come on; come on…
Transatlanticism – Death Cab for Cutie
it is 12.30am now and i have an impulse to go to town to buy primo levi, death cab for cutie and maybe keren ann – it would be expensive (i cannot use “did be expensive” because sharlene said it was ungrammatical, and it probably is) but i don’t really care. it’s midnight and there will not be any crowds and all will be silent and lovely.
but all the shops will be closed, all but 7-11.
i think there should be 24 hours deparmental stores where people can just go to whenever they feel like it. it has to be several because if there is only one it would just be a novelty and people will flock to it because it’s cool. i will go in at 1.30am, wander alone the shops and maybe sit inside a book store and read and drink ice blended passion fruit and i will see a quiet salesgirl in the empty store and perhaps i will fall in love with her.
the spontaneity of the reverse afternoon!
