bored to pieces

Ok I have never been so bored. So i used my webcam to take a picture up close and edited the whole picture to focus on my eyes. Its sposed to look mysterious and everything, but i dont know...

Beyond the flat.

Sometimes, I just want to disappear. You know, just grab a camera, passport, cash, clothes, a backpack and my phone, just disappear. Buy some plane tickets to where no one can find me (unless I want them too), get a local pre-paid phone and give the number only to people I want to find me. Just drop everything and disappear.

Do you know how amazing that would be? Not having a care in the world, doing what you want and what you like. Seeing the world's most majestic things, wackiest things. Maybe even give myself a fake identity. I could be ANYONE. Alright, so you know what? Im going to go to my facebook friends list, close my eyes and pick 2 random names. Ill use their first and last names (ill pick again if the first name belongs to a guy).

Here goes. My fake identity name is.... *drum rolls*.... VIVIAN KOH! Taken from "Chua Wan Ting Vivian" and "Daphne Koh.". I swear I did not cheat. If I did, I'd rather come up with whacky weirdo names like "Ray Oh Sunshine". Sunshine would me my "chinese name" although i got to  find away to become chinese-ish I could tell everyone my age was 21, so they won't assume I'm a lost kid and send me to the police station. I would tell them I'm from Singapore and having a backpack trip around the world to meet new people and that I was studying in the UK. Id tell them I lived in London (unless I really was in London then I'm studying in Chicago, USA) I'd be studying Anthropology in Brunel University (London). Or else, Visual Communications in Loyola University (Chicago). If anyone asks me how the college is like or that they're from there too, I'll either wing it or RUN. If they asked for my number or something stupid like that, I'll give them a fake one. OR, I would just give them some other random creeper's number I picked up. Yeah, that would be hilarious.

Sigh.. if only i could just disappear. Even if for a week. It would be amazing. Just forgetting all about my responsibilities here in Singapore. Exams, projects, chores, my mom.. EVERYTHING. Maybe I'd fly to Wyoming, meet Nick and maybe he'll teach me how to operate a handgun (sounds fun actually) and we could drive to some random state and escape everything together. Just the two of us roasting marshmallows laughing, dancing, exploring and God watching over us. Perfect.

P.S: I forgot one other item to bring. A sleeping bag! Just in case.

Strange addiction

Fact about me: I love watching television

There is this show called "My Strange Addiction" and it features people with weird addictions like marrying their dolls (really?!) , eating toilet paper, eating soap and playing with hair from the shower drainage. Not that  I want to judge them, but THAT'S DISGUSTING! Get like a normal hobby. Who cares if it's boring and wont get you famous on television. Go collect some stamps, old books, collect coins, whatever. Just don't DON'T do things that give people shivers!

Marrying your doll? Seriously? Are you really that deprived of sex or normal human women just hate you. Then again, maybe a doll isn't such a bad idea. Men are always complaining women are naggy and we talk to much, well, a doll wont. On the other side though, dolls cant make you sandwiches!

I dont know what to say about eating toilet paper... I mean I have done it but it was a dare when I was in Primary school. So I really don't get why that 20+ year old woman would enjoy it. To be honest, as much as I can remember, the toilet paper didn't taste as nice as burgers. It didn't even taste good.

Yeah... so after watching the show, I decided to list down some of my "normal-but-kinda-strange" addictions.

Here goes.

1. The sound of tearing paper
2. Popping bubble wrap (like as if that is strange)
3. Smelling new/ old books. 
4. Touching glossy paper
5. Cleaning people's mess, but not my own.
6. Microsoft excel sheet (admin work feels pretty therapeutic to me)
7. Mixing paint (or anything for that matter. as long as colours change)
8. Feeling textures.
9. Cracking my neck
10. Laughing at people

There probably isn't anymore since I stopped thinking at 9. Wrote 10 cos it seemed appropriate. 10 seems like the magic standard number of lists and questionnaires. Just a thought.

Eyebrows.

Right. I know I have'nt actually kept up with my "Japan chronicles". Im sorry. Used to think about becoming a travel-blogger. We all know why i gave up on that don't we?

Anyways, I shall leave this blog strictly to my personal life and I will NOT again attempt to be some flashy travel-blogger. Just wayyy too tough. So... back to EYEBROWS.

So I was on the train today and I got reeeallyyyy bored. I had no music or anyone to text. Was building castles in the clouds when I noticed a unibrow. If you dont know what that is, it means u have one LONG brow instead of the common "split-into-two" ones. If you still dont know what that is, look in the mirror. If you see two separate eyebrows, it means you DON'T have a unibrow. Well, that led me to stare at everyone's eyebrows. I was bored. Dont judge me.

The scrawny man with a tattoo on his neck had his left eyebrow reaching his forehead and the right touching his eyelids.

Wearing a bright red floral shirt was a slightly bent old lady with no eyebrows.

Normal looking ones. Normal. Normal. Normal. OOH!! Pierced eyebrows... Kinda ouch and kinda cool.

Eyebrows. Eyebrows. Eyebrows. Can't wait to get home.
