Im depressed.
Ive no money.
Im very depreessed.
Ive still no money.
And cos i cant beat tianyong in cnc.
And i wasted money on rosti.
And yukiyaki.
And cos i saw the jeans in topman which i really want.
And i only have 972 chips, down from 135000 chips last time.
So im depressed.

But its okay! Theres christmas and chinese new year coming up and then theres school. Damn im gonna hate next year's school so much, mainly cos i got shitty subject combinations and the class is split up. And some of the nice teachers are going and mr tan probably wont be my chinese teacher.

And the thing about chinese teachers, you see after 2 years with mr tan he doesnt care about me anymore right, but if theres a new chinese teacher i have to get he/she to not care about me again, meaning some scolding and calling parents and everything. Ugh. Oh and im depressed cos ive no idea whats gonna happen to me if i continue pon-ning my npcc like the past year O:

And im depressed cos all of my depressions cannot solve themselves. Yet.

Went out with Andreas yesterday, to go look at the campsite and to order food for the 3 days (like 375 packets), and its quite amazing how a little small stall can actually support our order. The uncle was a fierce man.

Then to town to have dinner at yukiyaki, and kayhan came along. We were charged adult prices man, but i think cos we ate like adults. Wasted food like kids though.



Thats an egg which we left to soft boil in the steamboat while we ate, and about 5 kg worth of beef and chicken.



And 22 cups of ice cream.

Went out with tianyong yesterday to have dinner (since the stupid gym was closed) and we met a very interesting man, which i have a whole lot of respect for. His name is Yarets Vladimir.

He is BOTH deaf and mute, and he has found meaning in his life to want to be the first deaf and mute person (in the Guinness Book of World Records) to travel around the world on a motorbike, and visit all the countries. I read some blogs and found out that this man was in singapore since May this year, and i guess something must have cropped up to make him stay here for so long. When we met him yesterday, he had stopped his bike and put up some posters to attract people, and he was showing to whoever was interested how he made it so far, there was even a sign requesting for donations so that he could get petrol O:



Vladimir A. Yarets, 64, a native of Minsk (Belarus), seriously believes his personality will be by right commemorated in the Guinness Book of world records. Vladimir is the first deaf person to have found determination and courage and set into a round-the-world trip on a motorbike. Currently he has traveled through more than 40 countries and covered the total distance exceeding 100,000 miles.

Traveling has always been the biggest dream for Vladimir. He started his numerous journeys in 1967. The first space to conquer was the whole territory of the USSR - from Belarus to Magadan. Soviet militia was strongly against issuing the driving license to the deaf biker, which, nevertheless, did not stop him from continuing the trip. Having returned home with a pack of newspaper cuts witnessing his unique 'marathon' Yarets showed them to local authorities and finally received the driving license. Although it seemed to the Yarets family that their restless father and husband eventually settled down, Vladimir knew this wasn't the end.

The outstanding round-the-world trip was started on the 27th of May 2000, in Minsk, the capital of the Republic of Belarus. After traveling through the whole of Europe, he headed to Morocco and the Canaries. The journey resumed from an exotic point of the world map - Venezuela, whereupon Vladimir visited St Lucia Island and Puerto Rico. A ferry took him and his bike to the Dominican Republic, opening new directions for his trip - Haiti, Jamaica, and Cuba. After that Belarusian adventurer set course to Florida, USA. Covering a country as vast as the States, certainly, took quite a while, however, Vladimir managed to visit every state except for Alaska and Hawaii.

A small American town Peoria turned out to be a tragic point of Vladimir Yarets's trip. He was forced to stay there for much longer than initially expected - almost a year. On the 13th October 2003, with foul weather raging and strong wind blowing furiously, Vladimir's bike crashed into a lorry. The traveler was picked up by local people and taken to the nearest hospital with numerous fractures. After hospital Vladimir continued his way to recovery in the house of one of his saviors, who kindly offered help.

At the moment Vladimir has fully recovered and is determined to visit Australia and the whole of Asia in order to leave nothing separating him from the world record...



This is a shot of one of the many posters that he has made as a record of where he has been these 8 years.



This guy, deservers your respect man. His site is www.yarets.com.

I am super bored. Have been bored these few days, like no mood to do anything. Talked to Von the other day, hes coming back to singapore quite soon but hes gonna stay for only awhile. Clarence is coming back from his war in vietnam to stay permanantly. And i think Brenna's coming back at the end of the month. Ah.
